A media event is planned to draw attention to the urgent need for permanent flood mitigation on Lake Manitoba. Planned by the Lake Manitoba Rehabilitation Committee with support from numerous Associations and MAACO, this gives all of us an opportunity to show support for this inter-organizational call for action. Members of the Legislature, Ministers and municipal reps have been invited to participate.
In the media bulletin Teichrob says, “We demand flood solutions for Lake Manitoba and strategies for the reduction in the amount of water discharged through the Portage Diversion immediately.”
