Manitoba Legislature Newsletter Highlights Flood Aid Debate
The minister states no compensation responsibility for flood damage from As iniboine operations, citing past Manitoba cases like Lake St. Martin where government paid. A federal task force study criticizes Highway admin practices and recommends merging maintenance with construction. The Revenue Tax bill expands taxes to aircraft purchases and many repairs, raising overall tax impact near a 1 percent sales tax rise.

The Russell Hiks Band is a thing of the past as remaining instruments and uniforms are sold to Portage la Prairie schools. The piece notes hope that band enthusiasm from Langenburg and Esterhazy may cross the border, while praising Russell as a good town for sports minded families.
