Ducks Unlimited Canada promotes grazing clubs with partners including Manitoba Cattle Producers Association and Promark Seeds. The clubs help with fencing and watering upgrades, provide technical resources, and facilitate producer collaboration. Two new clubs formed near Alonsa and Meadow Portage Waterhen, with Manitoba Agriculture backing the initiative and funding typically 20 to 30 percent of projects.

West Nile concerns fade amid DEET safety guidance
Health Canada urges protection against mosquitoes with DEET repellents. Official guidance notes up to 30 percent DEET provides about 6.5 hours of protection, with lower concentrations offering shorter durations. Studies show DEET is non carcinogenic in rats and mice, while other repellents offer far less protection.
