Village Council rejects plebiscite on Manitoba bilingualism
The Rossburn Village Council held its September 29 meeting with Mayor Louis Kurchaba presiding. Councillors Caldwell and Zegalski reported on a Brandon hearing where about 60 percent of briefs opposed entrenching French as Manitoba's second official language. The council decided no plebiscite would be held and approved by law a poll advance method. The board also discussed parking lot improvements, tourism membership, fire protection agreements, and subdivision lot pricing.
