The Winkler Flyers struggled to find the back of the net for a second consecutive game as they lost game two of their semi-finals series 3-1 on Sunday.

By the numbers, the first period was more of a tight checking, if not cautious approach by both teams.

The Northern Manitoba Blizzard displayed a patient game while the Flyers didn't make any mistakes either, bring a 0-0 draw through the first twenty minutes.

The City of Morden has begun construction on a replacement standpipe at the Water Treatment Plant today (April 7) and issued a notice letting residents know that they can expect to find construction vehicles and large equipment on Colert Rd and Water Tower Dr over the next nine months.

With just three weeks to go until election day, Canada's federal party leaders are back on the road today.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh is expected to make an announcement in Toronto today following weekend campaign stops on the East Coast, where he announced plans to impose national rent control and to get every Canadian access to a family doctor in the next five years.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is wrapping up a campaign sweep on the West Coast today before flying to Edmonton for a rally.

A federal election is coming up in three weeks, April 28th, and the Liberal candidate for Provencher is getting ready.

"It's going to be busy because this is a short campaign and so there's a lot to do, but I'm looking forward to it. I think this is a very important election, so I wanted to be part of it," says Trevor Kirczenow.

There are several big issues that make this such a critical election, he says.

When a person buys a car, they do so with the understanding that the vehicle has a finite lifespan, and there will come a point when it is more expensive to maintain than it is to replace. So, rather than waiting and being surprised when that time comes, planning and estimating the average lifespan of that vehicle can—in theory, set that person up to be ready for it.  

That is the philosophy behind the city of Winkler’s three-year financial plan, according to Mayor Henry Siemens. 

They’re coming from all over. From Minnedosa to Dauphin to Steinbach and everywhere in between, customers in search of quality pre-owned vehicles and Old Hickory buildings and sheds are beating a trail to BG Sales.

Bigger venue, same heartfelt mission

Cereals Canada has released a series of sustainability reports for Canadian non-durum wheat, durum wheat, barley, and oats to demonstrate how the cereals value chain is meeting the challenge of sustainable cereal production.

“Canada is a global leader in the production of high-quality, nutritious, and sustainable cereal grains,” said Mark Walker, vice-president of markets and trade. “These reports confirm that Canadian farmers grow some of the most sustainable crops in the world.”
