The Ottawa based postal service faces a proposed two cent increase in first class postage amid ongoing rate hikes. Canada Post management denies early reports, but observers warn the 36 cent stamp is likely, citing continued deficits and policy pressures from the federal cabinet.
A correspondence piece critiques Canada's postal rates doubling over five years and a 1985 two cent rise that funded a large deficit. It argues unions push costly demands while management and government must restore reliable service at reasonable cost, urging action by CFIB and political leaders. The letter also notes local government discussion and public council meetings on the issue.
Minnish was contracted by the Manitoba Housing Authority in Roblin to upgrade seventeen low rental homes this fall. Work included window replacements insulation updates and new stucco after removing old siding.
The Roblin audience applauded a theatrical show featuring John McCulloch's music and eleven performers including Laurel Paetz as Rose Bronowski. The production links to Manitoba's Primrose School District 109 with historic ties to 1886 to 1968.
The forwarded petition to the Council requests a roughly 50 percent reduction on current tax increases and warns of further action if the cut is not granted. Signers claim no one bears responsibility for the rise.
A reader states reluctance to engage in the Pro Life versus Pro Choice debate but addresses comments attributed to Beverly Hadland in the article Pro-Life-Not Just A Stand On Abortion. The letter stresses education concerns and personal stance.
Consultants from J. R. Cousin visited Roblin on November 17 to help assemble the first major bid package. Bids must be presented in Winnipeg by December 6, with professional packages likely more costly but potentially more effective.
