Manitoba seeks details on Garrison diversion project impact
Manitoba Resources Minister Sianey Green pledged to present Legislature with information gathered by the province on the effects of the Garrison diversion project in North Dakota. Ottawa protested the ongoing irrigation work as it could degrade water quality for Manitoba rivers. Green said Manitoba has voiced concerns through External Affairs and has no plans to meet North Dakota officials directly. The US has not halted the project but agreed to honour a boundary waters treaty. Green declined further comment. An apple’s refreshing taste appeals to calorie watchers seeking a sweet option.
