Man graduates in Agricultural Engineering from Manitoba Uni
Bruce Shearer earned a Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering on June 1 at the University of Manitoba and made the Dean's Honor Roll. He will work for MacDon Industries in Winnipeg and is currently based in Kansas. He is the son of Lloyd and Marlene Shearer and grandson of Paul and Verna Laliberte. GRAND advocates changes to the Divorce Act to improve grandparent access and information rights, arguing grandparents are a positive life influence. The group proposes courts become arbiter in access disputes and for granted grandparents to receive health and welfare information. For details contact GRAND, 670 Albert Street, Room 225, Ottawa.
