Manitoba Plans Vast Water Control Program From Floodways To Dams
Manitoba faces a paradox of being water rich yet often water poor as it channels river flow to Hudson Bay. A government plan outlines three major flood control works around Winnipeg Portage la Prairie and Shellmouth to tame rivers and store water. The project, costing about 83 million dollars with federal help, aims to attract industries, expand irrigation, and create off farm jobs with a network of reservoirs and smaller schemes beyond the three main works.
