Beausejour Convention Draws 400 Visitors Delayed Welcome Provokes Ire

A Beausejour gathering of the Mani toba Farmers union drew over 400 visitors from across Northeast Manitoba. Delays in the official welcome by local officials soured the mood, prompting criticism from attendees and outsiders alike. The meeting elected Richard Kawecki district director, while Bill Gander stepped back. A resolution urged strict enforcement of the Highway Traffic Act in school zones, amid concerns over speeding near a local school. The piece notes concerns about driver safety, parental responsibility, and proposes forming a neighborhood vigilantes group to monitor license numbers.
