June is National Indigenous History Month, a time to honour and celebrate the histories, cultures, languages, teachings, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples across Turtle Island.

It is also an opportunity to approach this month with care and intentionality- listening, learning, building relationships, and deepening understanding of Indigenous ways of knowing. One respectful way to engage may include offering to***co to an Indigenous Elder or Knowledge Keeper where appropriate and welcomed, to seek guidance, ask questions, and reflect on teachings that can be carried forward through action.

Throughout June, communities gather for powwows, ceremonies, cultural events, teachings, and celebrations that offer opportunities to learn and connect. Consider attending Indigenous-led events, reading Indigenous authors, supporting Indigenous artists and businesses, learning about the land you live on, and listening to the stories and experiences shared by Indigenous Peoples.

This month is a reminder that learning, relationship-building, and intentional action continue beyond June, guided by respect, care, and responsibility.💛

We're so back, baby!! 🚲💛

It's time to get your bikes tuned up and your summer cycling adventure plans ready! After taking a summer off Bike for Main Street Project, we're so happy to share that our beloved summer fundraiser is returning.

Bike for Main Street Project is a DIY pledge and activity-based fundraising event taking place from June to September, 2026. Main Street Project is raising funds to support the community through much-needed programs and services - programs that have a direct impact on Winnipeggers experiencing homelessness and other challenges. Your participation raises awareness about the critical services we provide to our community and inspires the people around you to support our cause with a donation!

We’re encouraging all Manitobans to get outside for some exercise, exploration and fresh air this summer. You can enjoy the beauty summer in Manitoba has to offer and help MSP raise funds while you’re at it.

We're in the final stages of getting the fundraising site ready, so stay tuned for registration opening real soon!

Who's excited?!🥰🙌

Yesterday was filled with color, joy, laughter, and community. 💜

Our team had a wonderful time joining the Pride Parade and celebrating alongside thousands of people from across Winnipeg. Seeing so many individuals, families, organizations, and allies come together was a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from community.

Thank you to everyone who shared a smile, a wave, or a conversation with us along the route. We were proud to be there and grateful to celebrate with all of you.

Happy Pride from the Main Street Project team! ❤️

Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Pride is a celebration of community, authenticity, and the freedom to be yourself.

Wishing everyone a joyful and meaningful Pride Month. ❤️

A look back at our Food Bank setup day last week ✨

It was a busy one behind the scenes as we got everything ready for reopening. Shelves were stocked, spaces were organized, and there was a real sense of teamwork throughout the day.

We were so grateful to receive a delivery from Harvest Manitoba that day, the fresh produce made a big difference as we prepared to open our doors again.
A big thank you to our volunteers. We truly couldn’t do this without you. Your time, energy, and heart make all the difference.
And thank you to everyone who donated, every contribution helped us get to where we needed to be for reopening.

There is still a real need for food donations as we work to bring the Food Bank back to where it was and keep our shelves fully stocked for the community we serve.

Drug Alert: Winnipeg - Thu. May 28, 2026

Pink chunks sold as PINK DOWN tested positive for medetomidine, carfentanil and fentanyl. A non-fatal overdose resulted from this substance.

Carfentanil is up to 100x more potent than fentanyl, and a tiny amount can cause an overdose. �

Medetomidine is a veterinary tranquilizer that is up to 300x more potent than xylazine.

If you are using substances, please use with a friend — someone you trust, because you might be sedated for a long time.

Naloxone does not work on non-opioid substances such as medetomidine. You should still give naloxone in cases of overdose, since medetomidine samples usually contain opioids as well.

The sample tested positive using strips for fentanyl and medetomidine on May 15. Health Canada Drug Analysis confirmed these results on May 26.
