Just in case you missed it live, here's what we got up to on Wake Up Winnipeg Episode 99.
Winnipeg police have released a 41 year old Alberta man from their custody yesterday evening after having arrested him on Tuesday night at Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson International Airport.
The male suspect was arrested after what police describe as causing a disturbance on a Toronto bound Air Canada flight.
During their investigation police revealed that the man appeared intoxicated and refused direction from crew members. He also attempted to light a cigarette while on board. When flight attendants attempt to intervene the passengers aggressive and belligerent behaviour continued at which time the cabin crew restrained the male to ensure the safety of everyone on board.
The man is charged with numerous offenses including causing disturbance, utter threat to cause death or bodily harm and interference with crew member.
The suspect appeared in a Winnipeg court yesterday and will again be remanded until November the 30th on several federal and provincial charges. He has also been banned from all Air Canada planes and any bars or pubs.
The consultation will be held on November the 1st from 6-8 in room 2-f at the convention centre. Members of the public are encouraged to pre-register by e-mail at budget@winnipeg.ca or by calling 986-4242. Registration is not mandatory, but appreciated.
Ford immediately ran back into the home "fearing for his life" and dialed 911 to request police assistance.
In a report filed by The CBC on Thursday afternoon, 911 dispatchers have stated that the mayor became agitated while waiting for assistance and lost his temper in a secondary phone call to the dispatchers.
"Do you F'ing know? I'm Rob F'ing ford, the mayor of this city!"
The mayor has stated that he was frustrated and very upset that they had accosted him in the driveway. He stated he hoped he could be excused for saying the f-word and that he has never called anyone any names.
Police were not publicly speaking out on the matter at time of Press.
Finally, following up with a story we previously reported on Wake Up Winnipeg, British Musician Paul Rodgers was officially sworn in as a Canadian citizen last week and in a written statement has stated that he is proud to be a Canuck.
On Wake Up Winnipeg Episode 94 we had the opportunity to talk to Rodgers about living in Canada
"At first we were commuting which was ridiculous really. I ended up staying here longer and longer till I said (to wife Cynthia) 'I think I live here don't i?' And she said 'Yeah, I think you do'. But I've been living here and I love it here. It's kind of very English but it's got much more space."
In a written statement released to Wake Up Winnipeg, Rogers has said that "While I'll always be an Englishman, Canada has given me so much for which I am grateful."
The public ceremony occurred in Surrey BC on Friday October the 21st.
This week we were joined by a talent local musician by the name of Greg Arcade who joined us by telephone to promote his upcoming show at Pop Soda's Coffeehouse with Mark Sultan.
In our interview with Greg shared his thoughts on his upcoming gig with Mark and described the sights and sounds of Winnipeg's newest cafe Pop Sodas.
During the episode we featured two tracks from Greg Arcade and his band The Electrics including a brand new single entitled "Too Young (To Fall In Love)" and his chart topping song called Creature Of The Night (featuring Cherry Brandy).
We expect big things from Greg Arcade as he continues to grow, both as a solo artist and as a musician, and look forward to talking to him again soon.
Our fans should be happy to know that we hope to have Greg Arcade & The Electrics as a featured guests in an upcoming Aimless & Andy Session from UMFM Studios.
