Manitoba Highway No 2 name clash stirs bold debate
A Manitoba legislative clash over Highway No 2 names pits Bob Rose of Souris and Jack Penner of Emerson against each other as they dispute renaming The Red Coat Trail amid political maneuvering. Ode to Shakespeare aside, the spat highlights regional pride and electoral odds as Penner presses for history accuracy while Rose exits. Meanwhile NDP MLA Oscar Lathlin faces a civil bill dispute after sending his daughter to Balmoral Hall, with the school suing to recover over $4,600.
