Driving Tips
If you’re driving at 100 kilometres an hour, you
will travel nearly 100 metres before coming to a
complete stop – slow down well ahead of your turn.
If you’re turning off the highway, move into the
proper lane ahead of time and signal 150 metres
before the turn.
When approaching a highway from a connecting
roadway, stop and give traffic on the highway the
right- of- way even if there is no stop sign.

O FFER an apology.
That’s what Mayor Sam Katz said he expects
from the University of Winnipeg student
paper, the Uniter , and the writer of an opinion
piece he claims implies he is a crook.
Katz said he’s learned to live with many of the
online character assassinations directed at him
but added the Dec. 4 Uniter article, headlined The
local political blunder , crossed the line.
“ This has been dragging on for many months.
All we’re looking for is basically a retraction and
an apology. End of story,” Katz said, adding he’s
not seeking any financial damages.
Katz filed a statement of claim Jan. 28, seeking
unspecified financial damages in connection
with the article, written by volunteer writer Josh
Benoit, who is not a U of W student. The legal suit
also names the University of Winnipeg.
A statement of defence has not been filed. The
allegations made by Katz have not been proven
in court.
The Uniter article references Katz, propertydevelopment
company Shindico, ex- city CAO
Phil Sheegl, issues surrounding the construction
of four new Winnipeg fire stations and Martha
Stewart. The article also contained an imagined
conversation between Katz and Sheegl.
The university told the Free Press it has no
control over the student newspaper and is not involved
in its publication.
Katz said the U of W did write him a letter, stating
it did not support the newspaper or the article.
Katz said he only reluctantly took legal action
against a student newspaper, adding he knows
there is not a financial windfall in it for him.
However, Katz said that doesn’t absolve Benoit
or the paper from doing the right thing.
“ It the principle of the law is the law, you can’t
just say anything,” Katz said. “ Any citizen would
basically protect themselves from any types of
comments that are not accurate and that is why
we have the laws.
“ We all have to live by the same laws. I believe
we all would do what we have to do to protect
yourself or your family in this type of situation.”
This is not the first time Katz has taken legal
action to protect his reputation. In December
2006 he sued Corus Entertainment Inc., owner of
local radio station CJOB, and former news director
Vic Grant and later accepted an on- air apology
and retraction.
Katz said his lawyer, Robert Tapper, has exchanged
correspondence with the Uniter but so
far the paper has refused to issue an apology or
retraction.
