Motorists passing Victoria Plaza on Brandt Street can’t help but notice a new pharmacy has arrived.  

Scott Penner shares his story, and what led to his decision to open a Pharmasave location in Steinbach.   

“I grew up in Kleefeld and Steinbach,” reveals Penner. “I went to the SRSS, graduated from the University of Manitoba Faculty of Pharmacy in 1992, then lived in southern Ontario for about 25 years. Just three years ago, I moved back to be closer to family here and many of my longtime friends and colleagues.” 

On September 14, at approximately 10:05 am, Morris RCMP responded to a disturbance in Lowe Farm.

It was reported that a male was walking on the road, screaming and smashing vehicles with a metal bar on Main Street.

Several officers immediately headed to the scene.

Kleefeld Construction has been a community fixture for a quarter of a century. Reflecting on the company’s growth over the years, owner Dave Siemens notes that it all began in 1997. He had just graduated from seminary with a master’s degree in counselling… but what happened next was just not in the plan.  

Lac du Bonnet RCMP responded to a fatal collision Sunday morning on PR 211 in Pinawa.

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.
