Stand off nets jail time for 34 year old Oudie
Jonel Oudie, 34, held RCMP at bay for over 12 hours in January, threatening self harm if officers did not bring his girlfriend to the scene. He was sentenced to one year in prison for firearms possession and two years for subsequent supervision. The incident drew fifty RCMP officers, including Winnipeg ER team members, to the stand off before his peaceful surrender. Also, a breakfast by Russell and Area Promotions raised 219 in donations for Communities in Bloom.

Public oppose transfer of park land to OCN Manitoba cottagers seek 120 day extension
More than a thousand cottage owners across Manitoba protest a plan to transfer 2000 acres of Clearwater Provincial Park to the Opaskwayak Cree Nation. They want a 120 day extension beyond the March 31 deadline and a public input process. The OCN, one of 19 bands, seeks 950 hectares around Hugo Bay campsite. Conservation says public consultation is required and several associations oppose any park boundary change. Public input, meetings, and concerns about park integrity and development are noted.

Manitoba nurses accept contract with 20 percent raise
More than 85 percent of Manitoba nurses voted to approve a contract raising wages by 20 percent over 30 months. Churchill area nurses largely rejected, with 13 of 17 accepting. Union president Maureen Haracharyk called the settlement cool though some anger remains about the deal. The pact makes Manitoba nurses among the highest paid in the country with premiums for weekend shifts and on call work. Northern locals not approving the offer remain in a legal strike position.
