A focused feature discussing Manitoba water resources, policy, and future needs. Highlights key figures, regions, and proposed plans shaping sustainable water management for communities and industry.
Manitoba outlines a broad water development program affecting most settled areas. The plan categorizes work into flood control, water conservation, drainage, and water supply for industrial and domestic use, with a map illustrating the scope of current and proposed projects.
Manitoba faces a paradox: a water rich province that often needs more for farms towns and industry. A federal provincial program outlines three major flood control projects around Winnipeg Portage la Prairie and Shellmouth plus a large Assiniboine basin dam near Saskatchewan to store 500 400 acre feet. The plan costs about 83 million dollars with half funded by the federal government and includes future irrigation and industrial use to spur rural development and off farm jobs.
