Cyclists and pedestrians don't always see eye to eye," said Jim Fielder, who is "mostly a pedestrian" and favours Option 1. "I like when pedestrians are kept away from traffic," said Fielder, who lives in the area and walks over the bridge to work in summer. Paul Hesse concurred. "I think pedestrians have to have a safe space," Hesse said. Having pedestrians and cyclists on the same walkway "is not an ideal situation. "Most people want the idea of urban village reflected somehow on the bridge," said Vaibhav Banthia, a bridge engineer with Wardrop Engineering on the advisory committee.

Maybe I'm putting myself down too much," he said, "but I really don't think in 40 years they've ever listened to me once. "We worked with the mayor, Executive Policy Committee (the mayor's cabinet) and with members of the (provincial) legislature," [Paul Hesse] said. "You're trying to get buy-in from the decision makers. So, you've got to assist them rather than oppose them. "It's either roll over or stand up and make your voice heard in the democratic process," she said. "It feels a lot better to be active, to know that just because it didn't work the first time, maybe there are other ways to get people's attention."
Currently, Winnipeg has 6.7 kilometres of diamond lanes near 41 busy intersections. The city is supposed to designate more lanes for buses and bicycles along commuter routes, but Winnipeg Transit is having second thoughts after conducting computer simulations on major arteries such Henderson Highway, Notre Dame Avenue, McPhillips Street and St. Mary's Road, [Russ Wyatt] said. Basically, they say they won't work and they're concerned about potential push-back. I'm not sure if it's self-censorship or whether there's been political pressure," said Wyatt, a big fan of diamond lanes because he considers them an inexpensive way of improving transit service. "We're looking for the city to take a leadership role on transit issues and think long-term," said Paul Hesse of the Winnipeg Rapid Tran...
Almost comically soft-spoken but intimidatingly brilliant, [Jennifer Lukovich] is a climate change expert of the most sophisticated kind -- a research associate at the U of M's Centre for Earth Observation Science (CEOS) with a doctorate in atmospheric physics from the University of Toronto. She's given city councillors an earful about protecting the city's trees and helped author a report on Lake Winnipeg's water for the Liberals. She's also an adviser to federal Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion. People thought the young lawyer was crazy to bother running in an NDP stronghold. But [Paul Hesse] has run one of the best campaigns in the province and turned a snoozefest of a race into cheeky fun. He has plastered his name on every bus bench, garbage bin and billboard in the riding; he's rollin...

I'm reading the 1930 Herman Hesse novel Narcissus and Goldmund. I was conducting in Frankfurt, Germany, and I ended up going out with a group of brass musicians who started talking about Hesse and Thomas Mann....
We've got to listen very carefully," said [Michael Ignatieff]. "We've got to revisit policy when it doesn't speak to westerners. "He's good one-on-one, he's good in small groups, in large groups," said [Paul Hesse]. "He's an inspiring speaker." "He's young, he's attractive, he's got a lot to give," said [Drew Cringan], a former Liberal aide and campaign worker. "He's not going to be 65 when the next election goes on. He's going to be around for a long time."
[Geoff Currier], a self-described fiscal conservative with no formal political affiliation, said last week he's been considering a run for public office for years. The death of former Coun. Brenda Leipsic in December provided "an unfortunate opportunity," he said Monday. Winnipeg School Board chairman John Orlikow and rapid-transit activist Paul Hesse are also expected to compete in the byelection. Tory-affiliated businesswoman Jennifer Zyla, who ran against Leipsic in 2006, may also run.
