While the Chinese market remains closed to Canadian canola seed, the Neepawa area is still awash in yellow, as many area farmers chose to stick with their rotations. In March, Statistics Canada data showed that nationally, farmers expected to plant 6.6 per cent fewer acres of canola in 2019. The actual seeded acres, released last month, showed that in Manitoba, producers are growing 3.3 million acres of Canada’s eponymous crop, down from the 3.4 million acres seeded in 2018.

By Eoin Devereux Neepawa Banner & Press The future of the Riverside Cemetery’s Perpetual Care program has been the talk of the town in Neepawa over the last month. On Tuesday, July 16, that talk left the local coffee shops and dining room tables and actually returned to the chamber of the Neepawa Town Council. During a council session on Tuesday evening, three members of the public spoke out on a proposal that had been announced in mid-June, which would discontinue the planting of flowers at 3,653 gravesites. Council came to the decision as a way of addressing costs that far exceeded the amount brought in from the annual sale of plots and the interest from the perpetual care trust fund. The remaining cost is covered by Neepawa taxpayers. What are the specific numbers? The first speaker was Darrell Gabler, who objected to the decision to halt the planting of flowers. Gabler expressed disappointment in the fact that the council has not been able to provide the public with the costs directly attributable to the planting and maintenance of those specific gravesites. Instead, the overall operational cost of Riverside was made available. Continued on Page A6
