St Vlad's changes hands in new era for school
St. Vladimir's College shifts administration to the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Winnipeg after 50 years with the Redemptorists. A 10 year renewable lease follows a feasibility study by a committee. A separate Portage la Prairie assault case ends with a $3,000 fine and three years probation. Additionally, wildlife casts from Riding Mountain show unusually large cougar tracks near the park. Other items note hospital cost implications from Manitoba buyouts, a snowmobile accident injuring Wayne Kostal, and a Swan River boy facing charges after a mistaken shooting of Mark Ross near Swan River.
