Western Canada duck crop outlook under heavy rains
Ducks Unlimited reports bumper wild duck crops across western Canada aided by sustained south prairie water levels and favorable nesting conditions. While central Saskatchewan and Alberta see strong nesting, northern Alberta and Manitoba show declines. Floods affect eastern nesting stock, but overall numbers remain high with large broods and resumed mating fights in Manitoba. Renters organize in Silver Spring to oppose rent hikes.
