Premium Park plan for sow barns across province
Wilson outlines a cap of two sow barns per RM until 12 barns exist province wide, with three new barns approved near Austin and three north of Brandon. The project, valued for tax revenue and local jobs, foresees open houses and strict manure management rules, plus potential future feed mill and local labor spin offs. Local residents are invited to event booths to learn details and ask questions.

Province urged to raise highway funding amid looming repairs
Transportation experts warn that current spending fails to meet safety needs. They cite a required $240 million yearly investment for the next 20 years, while this year’s budget stands at $104 million. Inflation and fuel costs push replacement needs well beyond present plans, risking continued slow construction and economic impact. Regional targets focus on 37 Westman roads in Manitoba for urgent repairs this summer.

Divisions seek cross border schooling agreement
Manitoba and Saskatchewan border divisions urge a joint interprovincial pact to ease student transfers. They seek funding rules based on origin rather than residence, with each province paying for its students. The plan aims for 2002-08 school year use if approved.
