Naming Northern Manitoba Center Pays Tribute to J A Campbell
A Manitoba commentary notes Transportation Minister Borowski's plan to honor northern figures by naming institutions and lakes. The Pas considers naming the Northern Manitoba Vocational Center after John A. Campbell, a pivotal northern advocate and early Hudson Bay Railway promoter, with a Dec 15 naming ceremony proposed to echo his 1918 parliamentary pledge to develop northern resources.

CNR Abandons Winnipeg Dauphin Rail Service Bid Draws Opposition
Two weeks after the CNR filed to abandon passenger rail between Winnipeg and Dauphin the company cites 1968 losses of 3 million and seeks 80 percent subsidy if the service is found essential. Municipal leaders and opposition figures condemn the move while Dauphin mayor leads regional resistance. The Pas stance remains quiet though rumors of moving the Area Headquarters to The Pas circulate despite official denial.

Northern Manitoba towns weigh Regional Development Corporation
The Pas council voted in favor of joining a Regional Development Corporation with northern Manitoba communities and LGDs. Critics question a $25 000 annual budget and $2 000 per year taxpayer cost, arguing past efforts failed to yield results and a unified northern voice may not justify the expense. Supporters say a regional body could spur agriculture, roads, parks, and tourism, but harmony among communities is essential.
