Article content As Regina braces for its second snowstorm of the week, Cora Gajari says it “feels horrible” to have to turn people away from much-needed shelter. “We have a lot of people calling for space and we just don’t have the room,” said Gajari, who is the senior director of women’s housing for YWCA Regina, in an interview Friday. The organization runs three emergency shelters for women, including My Aunt’s Place, the Isabel Johnson Shelter and Joan’s Place. “We try to find them alternative spaces, but the spaces for the people in the city are few and far between.” She said the main thing she’s heard from vulnerable residents looking for a warm place to land this week is that they have nowhere to go. The other shelters in the city are usually also full and while the YWCA recommends trying to find family to stay with, Gajari recognized that may not be an option for a lot of people. She said the organization’s last resort is to connect those in need of shelter with Mobile Crisis Services. The city was slammed with approximately 15 centimetres of snow on Tuesday. High winds Wednesday made clean up challenging for city crews and slow-moving traffic and stuck vehicles plagued the city for much of the day. Another 15 to 25 centimetres of snow is expected to hit Regina over the weekend before minus temperatures dip to the mid-teens Monday. Snow will begin Saturday morning near the Alberta border and reach the Manitoba border by late Saturday afternoon, according to Environment Canada. A snowfall warning was issued for Regina shortly before 1 p.m. Friday. “Obviously some people come into shelters when it gets colder,” said Maj. Karen Hoeft, executive director of Regina Waterston Ministries, on Friday. The shelter, which serves males, transgender males and the gender diverse, has 26 emergency beds funded through a contract with the province. They recently opened up nine additional beds funded by the Salvation Army as part of a cold weather strategy. But she said last night, all beds were full. “We recognize that shelters ... are a tough space to be because you’re in a shared living space with multiple other people,” Hoeft said. “So we always work to help people find the housing opportunities that will suit them.” Gajari said cold weather always makes demand spike, but that the YWCA’s shelters are typically full year-round. In late September, Regina city council approved the purchase of a property to turn into a permanent emergency homeless shelter in the Heritage neighbourhood. It will replace a temporary shelter currently being operated by Regina Treaty/Status Indian Services (RT/SIS) at The Nest Health Centre in partnership with the city and province next summer. While many agreed it was a positive step forward, one advocate argued more is needed. “It’s hard to declare a victory, because we’re just maintaining the status quo,” said Rally Around Homelessness (RAH) organizer Alysia Johnson at the time. RAH co-ordinates supports for people who are unhoused or in need of resources in Regina. Johnson called it a reactive stopgap and has urged residents to demand change to social assistance programs that many say are not working. A full list of emergency shelters as well as a “survival guide” and map for Regina can be found at mobilecrisis.ca/emergency-shelters/. The guide includes names, addresses and phone numbers for the city’s emergency shelters, community services, community care organizations and more. Mobile Crisis encourages anyone who cannot find an available shelter bed to contact them at 306-757-0127.

Is he a hero? A killer? Both? About the same time the #FreeLuigi memes featuring the mustachioed plumber from “Super Mario Brothers” mushroomed online, commenters shared memes showing Tony Soprano pronouncing Luigi Mangione , the man charged with murdering the UnitedHealthcare CEO in Manhattan , a hero. There were posts lionizing Mangione’s physique and appearance, the ones speculating about who could play him on “Saturday Night Live,” and the ones denouncing and even threatening people at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s for spotting him and calling police. It was all too much for Pennsylvania's governor, a rising Democrat who was nearly the vice presidential nominee this year. Josh Shapiro — dealing with a case somewhere else that happened to land in his lap — decried what he saw as growing support for “vigilante justice.” The curious case of Brian Thompson and Luigi Mangione captivated and polarized a media-saturated nation. It also offers a glimpse into how, in a connected world, so many different aspects of modern American life can be surreally linked — from public violence to politics, from health care to humor (or attempts at it) . It summons a question, too: How can so many people consider someone a hero when the rules that govern American society — the laws — are treating him as the complete opposite? Luigi Mangione, a suspect in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, on Monday at the police station in Altoona, Pa. Writings found in Mangione's possession hinted at a vague hatred of corporate greed and an expression of anger toward “parasitic” health insurance companies. Bullets recovered from the crime scene had the words “deny,” “defend” and “depose,” reflecting words used by insurance industry critics, written on them. A number of online posts combine an apparent disdain for health insurers — with no mention of the loss of life. “He took action against private health insurance corporations is what he did. he was a brave italian martyr. in this house, luigi mangione is a hero, end of story!” one anonymous person said in a post on X that has nearly 2 million views. On Monday, Shapiro took issue with comments like those. It was an extraordinary moment that he tumbled into simply because Mangione was apprehended in Pennsylvania. Shapiro's comments — pointed, impassioned and, inevitably, political — yanked the conversation unfolding on so many people's phone screens into real life. “We do not kill people in cold blood to resolve policy differences or express a viewpoint,” the governor said. “In a civil society, we are all less safe when ideologues engage in vigilante justice.” But to hear some of his fellow citizens tell it, that's not the case at all. Like Bonnie and Clyde, John Dillinger, D.B. Cooper and other notorious names from the American past, Mangione is being cast as someone to admire. Luigi Nicholas Mangione is escorted into Blair County Courthouse on Tuesday in Hollidaysburg, Pa. Regina Bateson, an assistant political science professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder, has studied vigilantism, the term to which Shapiro alluded. She doesn’t see this case as a good fit for the word, she says, because the victim wasn’t linked to any specific crime or offense. As she sees it, it's more akin to domestic terrorism. But Bateson views the threats against election workers , prosecutors and judges ticking up — plus the assassination attempts against President-elect Donald Trump this past summer — as possible signs that personal grievances or political agendas could erupt. “Americans are voicing more support for — or at least understanding of — political violence,” she said. Shapiro praised the police and the people of Blair County, who abided by a 9/11-era dictum of seeing something and saying something. The commenters have Mangione wrong, the governor said: “Hear me on this: He is no hero. The real hero in this story is the person who called 911 at McDonald’s this morning." A person demonstrates Monday near the McDonald's restaurant in Altoona, Pennsylvania, where police earlier in the day arrested Luigi Nicholas Mangione, 26, in the Dec. 4 killing of UnitedHealthcare's CEO in Manhattan. Even shy of supporting violence, there are many instances of people who vent over how health insurers deny claims. Tim Anderson's wife, Mary, dealt with UnitedHealthcare coverage denials before she died from Lou Gehrig’s disease in 2022. “The business model for insurance is don’t pay,” Anderson, 67, of Centerville, Ohio, told The Associated Press . The discourse around the killing and Mangione is more than just memes. Conversations about the interconnectedness of various parts of American life are unfolding online as well. One Reddit user said he was banned for three days for supporting Kyle Rittenhouse, who was acquitted after testifying he acted in self-defense when he fatally shot two people in 2020 during protests. “Do you think people are getting banned for supporting Luigi?” the poster wondered. The comments cover a lot of ground. They include people saying the UnitedHealthcare slaying isn't a “right or left issue" and wondering what it would take to get knocked off the platform. “You probably just have to cross the line over into promoting violence,” one commenter wrote. “Not just laughing about how you don’t care about this guy.” Luigi Mangione is taken into the Blair County Courthouse on Tuesday in Hollidaysburg, Pa. Memes and online posts in support of the 26-year-old man, who's charged with killing UnitedHealthcare's CEO, have mushroomed online.
