Transcona city councillor Russ Wyatt and Eyes of the Nation Ambassador Tracy Bowman at the event. 2017 Canada Summer Games, organizers and volunteers are calling on the community to help prepare its host cities for the arrival of 4,000 athletes and coaches, and 20,000 visitors this summer. The community initiative, entitled Eyes of the Nation, aims to leverage the Games to build a positive image of Winnipeg, Gimli, and Kenora in the hearts and minds of all Canadians—and in the process ignite a renewed sense of pride in the community. Event took place at Transcona Centennial Square. BILL REDECOP STORY. May 23, 2017
