Manitoba Pool rejects MTS privatization push
Manitoba Pool Elevators president Charlie Swanson reports delegates at the Winnipeg annual meeting urged the government to hold rural hearings and to abandon privatizing MTS. Swanson says the rural voice remains unheard and costs of a private utility worry members, but he avoids political judgments about the Tory plan.

Pipelines for Ducks boosts duck habitat along TransCanada in Manitoba
The Pipelines for Ducks program places nest tunnels along the TransCanada Pipeline right of way from Brookdale to Highway 5 in Manitoba. In a 1994 agreement with Manitoba Habitat Heritage Corporation MHHC, 200 nests were built first year and 160 added last winter. Ducks show high survival in tunnels while predators largely miss ground nests, aiding prairie pothole region conservation efforts and public image for TransCanada.
