Assiniboine River Flow Will Be Increased
Agriculture Minister George Hutton told the Manitoba Good Roads Association that higher expenditures and larger projects are needed to secure adequate water supplies. He cited protecting Manitoba’s share of Nelson River drainage, Red River flood protection by 1967, and a development program by 1968 to boost Assiniboine low-flow fivefold, enabling irrigation near Portage la Prairie and additional water to Lake Manitoba for recreation and wildlife.
