Downtown Peggy is not a real person.
Will Downtown Peggy protect all the weaponless office workers from becoming
victims at the hands of downtown criminals?
The real reason they promote downtown so much is so the Mayor can make more
money on taxes and keep his developer friends happy. The rest of us are just
pawns.
Good areas do not need this type of promotion as they draw people naturally.
The downtown thing here is a game. It's not safe.

Subject: [winnipegbusnews] Assiniboine ad, Downtown Peggy
The new ad I referenced recently is for Assiniboine Credit Union.
I read in one of those industry publications that sits on coffee
tables in the front offices of Nova Bus an interesting fact.......of all
urban Business Improvement Districts and their various campaigns, the one
that Downtown Winnipeg Biz runs (Downtown Peggy, that know-it-all web
mistress) has won a award for promotional campaigns. This in a magazine that
could be forgiven for not knowing where Winnipeg is, let alone first place.
