Consists of digital and analogue records donated to the W.R.E.N.C.H. (Winnipeg Repair Education and Cycling Hub) in 2022 as part of a call to the community to create an archive of Winnipeg cycling and community organizing. Donors provided records to the W.R.E.N.C.H. with the understanding that they would be transferred to the City of Winnipeg Archives when the project was completed. The majority of donated records are digital, both born-digital and scans of analogue records, but analogue records were also included. The records include posters, pamphlets, minutes, and other documents created by Winnipeg cycling organizations, photographs and videos of cycling events and bike education, and content related to the interaction between community organizers and the police. Organizations represented within the records include Bike Winnipeg and Bike to the Future, Bike Week, and Critical Mass. The project was supported by the Winnipeg Foundation.

Excerpts from minutes of the Board of Police Commissioners regarding the General Strike

Several pages from a bound volume of the minutes of the Board of Police Commissioners between 23 May and 26 June 1919 (page 80: May 23; page 88: May 29; pages 115-116: June 9; pages 125-126: June 11; page 155: June 25; page 156: June 26). Some of the pages have copies of other records pasted to them from other dates. The pages are excerpts and, as a result, some pages contain information that is either continued from the previous page or continues on the next, but is not included. These excerpts were selected by the Winnipeg Police Museum and deal primarily with staffing during the General Strike, including the dismissal of and reinstatement of employees, and the Slave Pact loyalty pledge.
