Back to the Basics in Winnipeg No 1 School Plan
Tax facts from Manitoba highlight wasted spending as taxpayers fund a public system with high costs and many illiterate students. Betty Granger led a successful push for a traditional basics program in Winnipeg No 1, approved by Education Minister Linda McIntosh, with direct instruction and strict assessments. The plan promises more homework, thematic teaching, and no fall policy, while costs and bus funding remain under scrutiny.

Manitoba Historic Building Move Fails Atkinson Implements
A 64 by 140 by 32 foot building owned by Atkinson Implements Ltd stalled after a few meters moved from Boissevain toward Hartney. Minty’s Moving planned the relocation with power lines and traffic controls in place. Authorities and a crowd awaited the historic shift, but the effort proved too heavy and was abandoned. The plan may be to cut the structure and move it later in the year.
