Following a public hearing on Tuesday, the planning, property and development committee approved 76 changes tothe Win- nipeg Zoning Bylaw, which governs how land outside the downtown core is used. ‘Among the changes were measures to bring the city's zoning rules around breweries and other small-scale alcohol producers closer to existing provincial liquor regulations. ‘Under the new rules — pending approval fom Mayor Brian Bowman's executive policy committee and council — micro- breweries would be allowed open in parts of the city besides industrial areas Paul McMullan, who plans to open a brewery by June — called Stone Angel — believes this change could be the start of more microbreweries setting up shop in the city ‘Right now, a lot ofthe craft beer that ‘comes is from B.C; why can't it be brewed here.” he said Tuesday. “Lights, Camera, Action!

The Canadian Centre for Child Protection has unveiled a program called Project Arach- nid, which crawls the web in search of images of child ex- ploitation. The Winnipeg-based charity — which operates in partner ship with police forces across Canada — says the automated program, run ona bank of sery- fers, can currently scan 150 web pages a second. I's not the first automatic program to scour the web, but itis touted as being faster than previous ones. Soon, officials hope, it will be able to reach beyond web pages and into peer-to-peer sharing programs. What has quickly become apparent is how vast the prob- lem is, Officials say that in six ‘weeks, the program has pro- cessed 230 million web pages and found 40,000 different images of child sexual abuse. Millions more pages with pot- centially offensive material are in the queue and are being de- tected faster than they can be scanned. The backlog is grow. ing as images continue to be shared. The new web crawler starts with websites previously re~ ported to contain child por- ography and follows all inks from those pages to other sites It seeks out matches for pre- viously reported images by comparing appearances or by analyzing digital information that is tied to each image. ‘When an offending image x Sisters Lucy, Odette and Rosemary, sexually abused by their father for years, are pictured outside the Seattle Center in December. me associaren ess is found, authorities may be notified and the Internet ser- vice provider hosting the site is told to take the page down. ‘The program is limited to previously reported images. but officials at the centre say it isa significant startin a very large battle, Is this the silver bullet to the problem of child abuse material on the Internet?

More than half of the re- spondents said the abuse start- ed when they were under five ‘years of age. Six in 10 said their Abuser was a parent. More than half said they were abused by multiple offenders as part of an organized group or network. ‘Almost three-quarters of re spondents said they were wor- ried about being recognized years later, because the images continue to spread online. “Every time I see someone looking at me, | wonder if they know, if they've seen the pic- tures," one unidentified victim said in a video provided by the centre, “Sometimes it feels like I'm being abused over and over Unleash your inner hero cutrune Festival du Voyageur means embracing fun, elements, cold Michelle Bailey 5 Metro Winnipeg Anyone who can embrace Win- nipeg’s brutal winter must have superhuman strength, So this year's Festival du Voya- sgeur's theme is, fittingly, HeHo Heroes. ‘We certainly ae all heroes by being able to survive though the ‘winter months and stil get outas community to have some fun,” joked the festivals executive: ‘ector, Ginette Lavack Walters.

THE CANADIAN PRESS Wednesday, January 18, 2017 | 5 | Bike Week looking for riders’ feedback Organizers hope survey brings ideas for growth Braed Jones Metro| Winn Forget Canada's 150th birth- day (don't actually), 2017 also marks the 10th anniversary of ‘Winnipeg's Bike to Work Day and fourth annual Bike Week. But with Bike Week and Bike to Work Day (B2WD) coming up con the ripe ages of 10 and four, respectively, event organizers want the community to help them learn how the events are perceived, what their role is, and ifanything should change. ‘To that end, organizer Dave Elmore said a new online sur- vey is meant to “plot the dir- ection of where Bike Week is going in the future.” He said the event has grown and evolved year over year as ‘participation increases and cye- ling becomes more accepted in the City of Winnipeg. For example, the original- ly one-day B2WD grew into Bike Week in order to reach a “broader audience,” to extend cycling celebrations to more than “just people who ride their bike to and from work.” “We're still trying to break that mould a litle bit,” Elmore said. “As you can imagine it starts to get arduous in terms of volunteer efforts when the program continues to grow and there's only so much money to do it with” The survey is meant to gar- ner feedback that will be part ofa strategic planning session where he, the event steering committee and staff will sit down and figure out how best touse Bike Week and B2WD to “bring about cultural change.” "We have to think about where to take it, how much we ‘an really expand, and what we are expected to be,” he said.

Elmore said because Bike ‘Week is for the community, the community input through the survey and “getting everyone's opinions" is critical. Bike Week 2017 will run June 17 to 23, and Winter Bike to Work Day is Feb. 10. EXCHANGE DISTRICT Public to weigh in on plans Stephanie Taylor Metro | Winnipeg ‘Winnipeggers will soon be able to weigh in on the fate of a plot of land currently home to the old Public Safety Building. On Tuesday, Mayor Brian Bowman and Angela Mathie- son, CEO of CentreVenture — the city's arms-length develop- ment agency — announced the launch of community consul- tations for the redevelopment of the lands in the Exchange District. Mathieson expects the pub- lic engagement process to take year. Bowman hopes that a re- development plan could be approved and shovels could hit the ground by 2018. “It's exciting what's pos- sible,” he said Tuesday. “We really do want to hear from the community, their ideas and | think those ideas dare out there and let's bring them forward” Bowman characterized the demolition of the former po- lice headquarters — touted asa piece of the city’s architectural history — and vacant parkade ‘as an opportunity to further revitalize the area. Residents will be able to give the city their input through an online survey and open houses, to be held in the spring. Nearby businesses in the Exchange District, such as Red River College, will be consulted more in-depth. a =, COM) rsee website for detals EXPLORE GIMLI & HECLA!
