Manitoba premier calls on Ottawa to protect against future flood damage

  WINNIPEG Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister is calling on the federal government to help protect against future flood damage in the province. The province wants the Trudeau government to sign the joint Canada-Manitoba funding agreement for the Lake Manitoba and Lake St. Martin Channels Project. The project will consist of building two diversion channels, as well as a number of bridges and water control structures. “Our consultations are underway already,” Pallister said. This project comes 10 years after the flood of 2011, which the province said caused $2 billion in damages. It said this flood highlighted several potential weak links in some of the existing flood control systems.

Manitoba brings back 14-day quarantine for inbound western travellers, border town residents exempt

The new restrictions will go into effect Jan. 27. There is no current scheduled end-date for the restrictions, which will likely be revisited once COVID-19 cases fall. During a Jan. 26 press conference announcing the order, Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister said that people coming from outside Manitoba into the province who live in border communities will not be subject to the two-week quarantine rule. When asked by the Brandon Sun’s Drew May, Pallister said normal interactions over provincial borders were not the target of the new measures. “There’s normal interaction that is customary and in fact, in many cases, is considered essential along our borders with Saskatchewan and to some degree, with Ontario,” said Pallister.
