Donor needed for Barry Dyer as race against time in Winnipeg
Barry Dyer, 41, of Portage la Prairie, battles chronic myelogenous leukemia awaiting a donor. Black ancestry lowers exact-match odds to about 35 percent, with registry criteria and age limits reducing eligibility. Friends raise funds and plan prayers at Winnipeg events as Dyer remains on monthly transfusions.

Let's Talk Taxes Will Manitoba Bailout Eaton's?
Victor Vasnik argues that Manitoba may fund half of a 4.5 million corporate welfare plan to help Canvic Investment Corp buy the Eaton Place building while Eaton's stores remain a tenant. He says this would prop up a viable site with local needs, and urges readers to contact Finance Minister Eric Stefanson. The column labels such actions as pork barrel welfare and calls for taxpayer objections.
