Rural Manitoba Faces slow growth in high speed Internet

Ken Wapper laments rural Manitoba lag in high speed Internet mirroring the 1940s hydro rollout. He cites RF Now, I Netlink, Wheat Belt Community Futures and a $30,000 federal grant as steps forward, urging government backing and potential public utility status to narrow the urban rural gap.

Faithful roots and weeds teach patience and forgiveness

The author recalls moving to Neepawa and restoring a neglected garden. Quack grass and wild portulaca prove you must remove roots to truly eradicate pests. Lessons on handling hurt follow Hebrews 12 15, contrasting vengeance with surrender to God to avoid bitterness.

High speed Internet plan for southwestern Manitoba

CFDC Manitoba Smart Network and regional groups announce a strategy to bring high speed Internet to a wide list of communities in southwestern Manitoba. The plan, funded in part by the federal Broadband for Rural and Northern Development Pilot Program, targets numerous First Nations, municipalities, and rural areas with a May 2003 submission deadline and a February 2003 RFP for cost effective solutions and partner funding.
