On August 28th, RCMP received a report of a disturbance at the McDonald’s on Highway 12 in Steinbach.

According to police, four individuals in a red 2016 Ford Focus with a Manitoba licence plate KUN721 became disgruntled at a staff member. A Caucasian male in his twenties threw an item at the McDonald’s employee before telling the driver to drive off.

The incident occurred at approximately 6:00 AM on August 28th, 2022.

A steady stream of vehicles moved slowly down Creekside Drive in Steinbach Friday afternoon.

With red ribbons tied to their cars, family and friends of Mackaylah Gerard-Roussin began their vigil in Winnipeg and then traveled to the Deerfield address where earlier this week RCMP were investigating the homicide.

In a Facebook post, a family member said the vigil would continue on from Steinbach to Woodridge and then back to Winnipeg where candles would be lit in front of the Manitoba Legislature at 9 PM.

Smitty’s in Steinbach has been a favourite fixture in the community for decades, welcoming guests into the dining room and lounge and making everyone feel right at home. So it only makes sense that Smitty’s ownership group would choose to expand their offerings by purchasing Sleep Suite Motel. 

Kaely Dyck is part of the Smitty’s Steinbach ownership group. She says that like Smitty’s, Sleep Suite has been a trusted local institution for a long time.  

Motorists traveling Highway 52 west of Steinbach may have noticed a new addition to established signage at Birchwood Funeral Chapel – a co-op sign. Most are well acquainted with the idea of co-op in terms of gas bars, but what does it mean for a funeral chapel to be a co-op?

Manager Todd Harder explains that Birchwood Funeral Chapel has always been a co-op. However, it never occurred to them to include “co-op” as part of their signage.

“We are so excited!” 

This from Stony Brook Pantry – the famous specialty bulk food and giftware shop located on Highway 12 North in Steinbach.  

On November 14th, 2020, a neighbouring business suffered a massive fire, and Stony Brook Pantry had to close their doors due to severe smoke damage. Throughout the following months, the front of the store has seen a major facelift.  

The ownership and staff say that it feels like it's been a long ordeal, but they’re excited about their new look.  

“We want to celebrate with all our wonderful customers!”
