People outside the West End of Winnipeg see the area as violent as news shows. The truth of the matter is 97% of the people who live here are just people, families.

And tonight was a good show of just that. So many great people attending Leah Gazan’s open house shows the truth of the West End, the community that works together.

No crime or violence here, just family and community members getting together sharing food and conversation. Events like this are what shows the true colors of the West End of Winnipeg.
