Happy Birthday, Sam Katz! From making history in 2004 as Winnipeg's first Jewish mayor to confidently steering the city through three successful terms, you've certainly proven that politics can be both effective and entertaining. Your leadership brought fresh energy and memorable moments—like your enthusiastic support for local sports teams or your knack for charming even the toughest critics.Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps fewer potholes than Winnipeg winters usually offer. May this birthday bring you as much happiness as you've given our community—and may all future elections be less stressful than a Jets playoff run!
