Canola plant sparks industry debate in Hamilton
The western Canadian canola sector questions the $20 million Hamilton plant by Canada Packers amid overcapacity and tight raw seed supplies. CSP Foods argues trouble started before the opening, with CSP losing 1.76 million and a new Harrowby plant boosting capacity. Experts predict a tough period but eventual market recovery and growing canola oil share.

Hunting ban tightens park fringe in Riding Mountain area
Officials at Riding Mountain National Park declare the park boundary off limits to hunters as of August 1988. A fatal shooting near the boundary last September spurs enforcement while area landowners push back against closures. The fringe now sees four two week seasons with increased patrols and a softer enforcement approach this year. A petition with 197 names opposes the closure and a National Parks Act amendment may raise fines for violators.
