WINNIPEG Manitoba’s premier said the official opposition is trivializing the respectful workplace agreement after one of its MLAs rejected the findings of the investigation last week. During a news conference Monday afternoon, Premier Brian Pallister criticized the response of NDP Leader Wab Kinew and NDP MLA Adrien Sala to the results of an investigation into harassment of a government worker. “These comments are an attack against every MLA against the legislature itself,” Pallister said. “And against the very important principle that everyone has the right to a safe workplace free from harassment and bullying.” Pallister added, “They have sought to politicize the legislature’s independent process, in so doing, they attempt to discredit a policy that seeks to hold people accountable for their actions.”

WINNIPEG An appeals court has struck down an injunction placed on the Lake Manitoba, Lake St. Martin outlet channels project – a move Manitoba s premier is calling a temporary victory. When the floodwater came in 2011, Twin Lakes Beach homeowner Harry Frederick said there was little notice. “Surprisingly faster than I would have believed it was,” said Frederick. “I would suggest 15 minutes and we were way past your knees in that time.” Frederick and other Lake Manitoba residents hard hit by the flood a decade ago are still waiting for the outlet channels project. It is a $540 million flood protection plan to drain water from Lake Manitoba to Lake Winnipeg via Lake St. Martin.
