70 Years
Ago Today… Van Takes Out Signs And Hits Ditch
Minnedosa
Spillway
Collapsed
By DARRYL HOLYK

M ay 4th, 2018 marks

the 70th anniversary
of the biggest disaster in
Minnedosa’s 135 year his-
tory. At 7:07 p.m. on Tues-
day, May 4th, 1948, the
Minnedosa dam collapsed
sending the water of the
lake rushing towards town.
On May 1st, local resi-
dent, Ed Brewer was fish-
ing along the banks of the
river near the dam when
he noticed that a previous
small crack in the spillway
had become a large gap-
ing crevice. He rushed into
town to sound the alarm
and within the hour, vol-
unteer workmen were on
scene and began pushing
large stones along the side
of the dam. This process
continued day and night
for the next few days with Photo by Darryl Holyk

for three days in hopes
of holding the lake water
back from the town.

RCMP responded to a single vehicle incident near the intersection of Highways #10
and #16 just north of Minnedosa Auto Wreckers. An east bound Dodge minivan lost
control on the exit curve from Highway #10 onto Highway #16. It took out two road
signs, crossed Highway #16 and came to rest in the east ditch. A pickup, pulling a trailer,
was approaching the intersection from the east at the time of the incident and luckily,
the driver of the truck was able to slam on the brakes and avoid a collision with the van.
Fortunately, there were no major injuries as a result of the accident. The van re-
ceived some damage to its front, driver’s side corner as well as the windshield from
hitting the signs. The female, sole occupant of the van was transported, by ambulance
to Minnedosa Hospital for observation. See Page 8

from Page 1

Meanwhile, a number
of Minnedosa businesses
and residents began pre-
paring for the possibil-
ity of a flood if the spillway
should break by moving
belongings, furniture and
store merchandise up to
higher ground away from
the floor.
The tireless efforts of
local volunteers could not
hold back the power of
the water and on the eve-
ning of May 4th the shak-
ing, creeking, wounded
spillway toppled over as
water from the lake rushed
fast and furious towards
town with a thunderous
“whoosh”.
Downtown Minnedo-
sa was hit the hardest.
On Main Street, the wa-

was reported at the Unit-
ed Church and one of the
heavy cement balls by the
cenotaph was carried right
through the brick wall of
the St. John Law office.
At the Taylor home, near
the current post office, 29
inches of water was mea-
sured in the living room.

had been pulled up and
bent. An estimated 40 to
50 families were forced out
of their homes and spent
the night with friends or
relatives on higher ground.
At the Burgess Store, mud
had to be shovelled out
of the business and after
working to wash shelves
and floors with disinfec-

morning, the store was
ready to re-open the next
morning.
In the weeks follow-

Help Protect the Rights of Manitobans

Letters to
Dear Municipal Councillors and MLAs; communities look like without a local newspaper?
Many will argue this is a matter of money, and there’s

W e write to you with great concern over the provin-

cial government’s proposed legislation to remove
no denying that is a part of this situation. However, Mu-
nicipalities have mechanisms in place to recover some of

the requirement of municipalities and provincial gov-
ernment bodies to publish mandatory public notices in
Manitoba’s community newspapers.
The government maintains this is an exercise to
“enhance communication” with Manitobans. Yet Bills 8
and 19 merely propose replacing independent newspa-
per advertising with postings on government controlled
websites. This is clearly not an “enhancement” of com-
munication.
While it has been officially stated the sections of Bills
8 and 19 dealing with mandatory public notices in news-
papers will not be proclaimed at this time, this remains a
very concerning issue for us, as it should be for all Mani-
tobans. The sections left unproclaimed can be enacted
by government at anytime with the swipe of a pen and
without notice or further public consultation.
The Government has stated its position that inter-
net connectivity needs to increase throughout North-
ern Manitoba before these sections will be enacted. The
Manitoba Community Newspapers Association main-
tains that is only part of the problem.
Of equal concern is the assumption that providing
public access to information online is the same as pro-
viding public notice. It is not. To expect Manitobans to

The Planning Amendment Act.
Bill 19 gives local councils and
planning districts the “choice” to get
rid of the mandatory conditional use
approval process for large livestock
operations, along with all the legal
protections the public currently has.
In so choosing, municipalities give
away the ability to set conditions
such as requiring manure storage
covers and shelterbelts to attempt to
control odour and require develop-
ment agreements to make the hog
factory pay for road building and
maintenance, instead of taxpayers.
All municipalities will have to
review their zoning by-laws and de-
cide within one year if they want to
control large factory hog and poultry
operations, cattle and sheep feedlots

posed to protect from harm or open

Imagine not being able to say any-
thing about decisions that could
harm your investment in a home,
farm and community.
Livestock operations would
merely have to get a Provincial ma-
nure storage permit and water rights
licence to get building. These pro-
cesses are secret and “business in-
formation” is private, protected by
law. So, nobody will be able to find
out if provincial officials and indus-
try are doing things right. Last fall,
many rules were weakened. For ex-
ample, almost all of the oversight of
the construction of manure storages
was given to the engineers building
them in the name of “red tape reduc-
tion.” Provincial regulators allowed
manure storages to be built in high
water tables, flood plains, marsh and
ground water sensitive areas. This
practice will get worse.
The last “line of defense” for ru-
ral people against inadequate and
est of their constituents first. Those
who truly care about what happens
to people’s health, quality of life and
homes, non-industrial farmers live-
lihoods, animal welfare and our air,
water and environmental health.
Why is this Bill before the legis-
lature? Because a 2017 internal advi-
sory brief to cabinet identified “pub-
lic conflict” and “public pressure”

factories so that Maple Leaf and Hy-
Life Foods can increase their profits
by exporting 95% of Manitoba pro-
duced pork while leaving rural peo-
ple to suffer the consequences. Why
would any intelligent farmer want
to invest in an INDUSTRY where
hog finisher producers lost money
in eight out of the past nineyears?
Manitoba Pork Council’s numbers,
not mine.
Councils and rural people must
raise their voices now, loud and clear
against Bill 19 before it’s too late.

B ecause strong fami-

improve child care in our
province.
For years, families
in Manitoba have had
to struggle with a short-
age of licensed, afford-
able and safe child-care
spaces while wait lists have
climbed into the thou-
sands. We are listening to
them. And as we recently
announced, we are add-
ing 780 new licensed child
care spaces supported by
$22.8 million in funding
for construction in areas
most in need across the
province.
In the constituency of
Riding Mountain, River-
dale Community Daycare
will receive an estimated
$900,000 in capital grant
funding for the renovation
of three classrooms in Riv-

sion project will create 32
new child care spaces, in-
cluding eight infant and 24
pre-school spaces.
Minnedosa Commu-
nity Child Care Co-oper-
ative will receive an esti-
mated $180,077 in capital
grant funding for the cre-
ation of four new spaces
for infants.
In addition, we have
allocated $2.3 million an-
nually in new operating
funding over three years
for 621 existing spaces at
63 child-care centres. This
funding ensures these
facilities will remain af-
fordable for families and
financially stable, so they
can continue to offer early

Agreement.
The 780 new childcare
spaces are being created
through 20 major capi-
tal projects in communi-
ties such as Rivers and
Minnedosa where access
to affordable child care
has been challenging and
with consideration of low-
er-income, lone-parent or
French-language families.
The new centres will serve
as community hubs with
10 projects at schools or on
school properties, and an-
other 10 projects at active
community locations.
Manitoba families
know the importance
of affordable child care.
Working with the federal
government, we are vastly
improving access to afford-
able and quality childcare
repair the services Manito-
bans depend on, and im-
provements to child care
are among our highest pri-
orities. It’s exciting to see
the ongoing expansion of
early-learning and child-
care facilities and spaces
across the province as part
of our work to reduce wait
times and meet the needs
of Manitoba’s communi-
ties. We are taking signifi-
cant steps to meet these
goals.

Minnedosa Lions Celebrating 40 Years of Service

By Hillary Miller was raised by the newly mal fee for the delicious does not allow room to list about 25 directors. At one fun show every other year,
formed Lion’s Club. In or- breakfast. every Lions donation over point, membership was as well as a major dinner

T he Minnedosa Lions
Club is celebrating
its 40th anniversary this
month. Throughout its
forty years, the group has
done so much for the com-
munity, and has a lot to be
proud of.
According to Lion Alf
Iverson, the Minnedosa
Lions Club was officially
chartered on May 13th,
1978. There were 31 initial
members, and the club was
sponsored by the Erickson
Lions Club. The club’s first
directors were Jim Chip-
perfield, Stu McKay, Bruce
Burton, Ray Morgan, Mike
Bradbury, Ted Temple,
Harry Dowsett, Johnny
Grant, John Mendrikis, Bill
Hancock and Cal Frost and
president Ernie Sedor.
One of the first of the
club’s projects, in 1979,
was to build the outdoor
skating rink by Tanner’s
Crossing School. It has
since gone through differ-
ent ownerships and main-
tenance. The cost for the
materials for the original
project was $2,700, which
der to raise the funds for
the materials, the group
auctioned off an Arctic Cat
snowmobile.
In 1979, group also
started what is still one of
their primary fundrais-
ers. It was the Minnedosa
Lion’s 100 Club, which has
evolved to become what
is now the Minnedosa
Lion’s 200 Club, in order
to include more people in
the community. For the
fundraiser, the Lions sell
200 tickets each year, and
a draw is made once a
month for a total of $1,000.
With this fundraiser, the Li-
ons now raise $24,000. Half
is awarded in prize money
with the remaining half go-
ing back to the community
through various Lions do-
nations and projects.
The year 1979 also saw
the inception of the famed
Minnedosa Lion’s Pancake
Breakfast, which is held
annually on the Saturday
morning of Fun Fest, be-
fore the parade. Although
it began as a free event, the
club now charges a mini-
In 1980, in keeping
with what was popular at
the time, the Lions began
hosting a Talent Night.
They involved the local
Kinsmen and Rotary Clubs
and held the event at the
arena. Iverson said it was
very well attended when it
first began. “They ran their
course and don’t seem
to be as popular now,” he
said.
The Lion’s Club also
holds a battery drive,
where they pick up old
batteries and have them
delivered into Winnipeg
for recycling. Alf noted
that there are not as many
batteries collected as there
once was because so many
companies offer rebates
for their batteries. How-
ever, the local Lions still
manage to collect a few
hundred batteries for recy-
cling.
Minnedosa Lions con-
tinue to receive letters of
request seeking support
for a number of projects,
events and initiatives in the
community. While space
the past four decades, here
are a few noteworthy ones.
Over the years they have
supported the Rolling Riv-
er Festival of the Arts, they
have sent young people
to the International Peace
Gardens Music Camp, they
supported the financing of
the Minnedosa Arena, as
well as the Minnedosa Re-
gional Events Centre proj-
ect (multi-year commit-
ment totalling $30,000),
and the Dr. Ajai Khandel-
wal Primary Care Centre
(a multi-year commitment
totalling $25,000). For the
new clinic donation, the
Lions have also reached
out and enlisted the help
of other groups as well as
their own international
foundation, in an attempt
to add to their own local
donation. This is still in the
works and will hopefully
have some positive results.
Currently, member-
ship within the Minnedosa
Lions Club is doing well
and holding its own. The
club started with 31 direc-
tors, and today there are
down to about 13 people.
While they have always
been open to having fe-

Golf Course Aiming For Successful Season
By Hillary Miller
T he Minnedosa Golf
and Country Club is
gearing up for another suc-
cessful season.
As 2018 kicked off, the
local Golf Club welcomed
a new Golf Pro, Patrick
Law. Coming from Cypress
River and Glenboro, Pat-
rick spent his youth play-
ing hockey and baseball
before he was introduced
to golf by a good friend.
He learned his basic golf
skills at the age of 12 from
his friend and his friend’s
grandpa. “I was hooked
from there,” he said. At
the junior level, he began
playing in tournaments
and noted that “when I
found out that I could do
something in golf as a pro-
fession, I jumped all over
that.”
Following high school
graduation in 2009, Pat-
rick attended Lethbridge
College in the Profes-
sional Golf Management
program, where he stayed
for three years. Upon re-
turning to Westman, he
was employed by the
Shilo Country Club with
Golf Pros Dave Scinocca
and Scott Ramsey. He re-
mained there for seven
years, working full-time,
year-round, and took on
the Assistant Professional
position there.
Patrick and his fiancé
currently reside in Bran-
don and are planning to
get married this summer.
His duties at the
Minnedosa Golf Club have
included readying things
for the upcoming golf sea-
son. He has been busy
stocking the shelves in the
Pro Shop and greeting the
many friendly commu-
nity members who have
stopped in to introduce
themselves and welcome
Law to Minnedosa. Law is
looking forward to meeting
everyone in the commu-
nity, and “getting back into
the socializing with people
and meeting people, but
its going to take me a while
1-877-739-0684
Friday, May 4, 2018 9
to remember everyone’s
name.”
The 2018 golf season
is now officially under-
way. Patrick noted that all
of the moisture left by the
snow, after the dry season
last year, will have the golf
course in great shape for
this season. He plans to
continue the men’s and la-
dies’ nights, as well as con-
tinuing to grow the junior
program once the weather
is warmer than it has been.
Over a dozen tournaments
have been booked for the
local course this season,
some of which include
the Cancer Society Tour-
nament and Rockin’ the
Fields Tournament both
being held this month.
