Congratulations to Winnipeg, Manitoba's first site created by the West Central Community Improvement Association.

Johns are unwelcome in our neighborhood. This grey mazda 1/2 ton picked up a prostitute at 9:08pm on June 26th, 2000.

The simple message we are trying to express: Do not pick up a prostitute in our area!

With an overwhelming amount of construction in the Victoria Park area, the hookers have decided to circle our block in an effort to make more money. With the girls have come drugs, degenerates, and anger from our neighborhood at the clients of these prostitutes. We do not want this business taking place in our neighborhood.

Since standing on a street corner is legal, our elected officials feel we "are given literally no powers whatsoever to deal with this issue." (Alderman Jon Lord) Local police officers agree that they are unable to do much about the problem with lack of funding and the number of officers. Our community, however, has a lot of power. We have decided to take to the streets and record license plates, take pictures, and promote this information to the masses.

We hope that the johns will be aware that their identities are being recorded and that they no longer feel the need to return to our neighborhood. We do not want prostitutes in our area and we will do everything in our power to reduce their business by removing the anonymity of their clients publicly.
