The 1.5 million initial build, 1969 refinery upgrade at 3 million, and a 500,000 bushel storage help manage excess crude oil. Manitoba farmers observed robust deliveries at 2.58 a bushel amid rich Central Manitoba rapeseed soil.

Farmers Vote To Withhold Taxes In Manitoba Border
Southwestern Manitoba farmers from six school divisions backed a vote to withhold all taxes on farm lands and buildings until education funding shifts to a taxed income basis. They also pledged to withhold principal and interest payments to Farm Credit and banks until rates drop, following NFU women's president Evelyn Porter’s critique of a federal agriculture report. She argued the plan would push two thirds of Canadian farmers off the land, urging a reversal to return people to farming.
