The Manitoba Lotteries Corporation bought out 269 employees for 2.3 million, saving over 8 million annually in salaries and benefits amid revenue declines blamed on smoking bans. Manitoba Hydro posted 2003 losses of 436 million and 42 million in Q1 2004, prompting a 10 percent rate increase. Net debt rose to 10.2 billion driven by pension liabilities, while Alberta remains debt free.
