Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPmini

Weekend Hashtag Project is a series featuring designated themes and hashtags chosen by Instagram’s Community Team. For a chance to be featured on the Instagram blog, follow @instagram and look for a post every week announcing the latest project.

Small is cute but mini is irresistible — like this featured photo of tiny teacups from Kiyomi (@chiisanashiawase2015). This weekend, the goal is to take photos and videos of all manner of mini objects and creatures. Here are some tips to get you started:

The miniature trend is alive and well. Are you an artist who makes itty-bitty masterpieces out of polymer clay and paint? Show off some of your favorite creations.

Take a video of your younger sibling who mimics your every move, a new puppy following around its mother or the little things in your world that make you go, “Aww!”

Compare something micro to something massive to better illustrate its size — like a sapling at the base of a giant redwood tree or an ice cream challenge next to a single scoop.

PROJECT RULES: Please add the #WHPmini hashtag only to photos and videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own visuals to the project. If you include music in your video submissions, please only use music to which you own the rights. Any tagged photo or video taken over the weekend is eligible to be featured next week.

Winnipeg Real Estate Tycoon Sues 49 People Who Protested Bulldozing Historic Wetlands

The lawsuit could cost the defendants over half a million dollars and send a chilling message to peaceful protesters across Canada

A Winnipeg-area real estate developer has launched a lawsuit against 49 people who tried to defend ecologically sensitive wetlands that have historical significance to the Métis against controversial development plans.

Companies owned by Andrew Marquess, a well-connected Winnipeg developer, allege in court documents newly obtained by PressProgress that the 49 defendants participated in a “trespassing campaign” on the wetlands. Marquess claims this forced him to build a fence, install flood lights and hire a private security firm to “conduct surveillance” on the Indigenous and environmental activists.

Marquess had previously launched a lawsuit against several lead organizers. A new Statement of Claim, filed at the end of September, names dozens of new defendants.

Those defendants say Marquess is seeking “damages potentially in excess of $500,000” – a move they warn could have a chilling effect on peaceful protests.
