The Legal Aid Services Society of Manitoba outlines income thresholds for free and subsidized aid, details staff and volunteer lawyers, and highlights plans to extend services to rural areas, northern communities, mental health patients, the elderly, juveniles, and inmates. It notes duty counsel in courts, remote fly-in clinics, university and community partnerships, and ongoing outreach to increase private lawyer participation.
Legal Aid Manitoba now offers free or subsidized help to most Manitobans and has assisted about 60,000 people in two years through criminal and civil court actions as well as counselling and informal advice. Attorney General Howard Pawley cites the program as the most extensive in Canada and under study by several provinces. Executive director Ron Meyers notes Ontario considered a similar neighborhood law center model and may modify its system based on Manitoba's plan.
Town of The Pas plans a Fire Prevention Week October 6 to 12 with a parade on October 5 and home inspections Monday Wednesday and Thursday evenings.

The week marks the anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire observed since 1911 and Fire Prevention Week since 1922.
