Getting burned

ast week, volunteer firefighters in The Pas received an unwelcome surprise, six of them, along with the Town of the The Pas, were named as defendants in a lawsuit alleging negligence. It’s not just that the firefighters were named in the suit that’s troubling, it’s the fact that the case is being brought against them by Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries (MLL).

On July 7, 2017, the volunteer fire department in the The Pas was called to a fire at the Town Centre Hotel.

At the time, RCMP called the fire suspicious and CBC reports indicated that the fire began when someone set fire to a recycling bin at the back of the building. Firefighters responded to that 2:30 a.m. call and extinguished the fire, leaving at 4:30 a.m.. However, shortly after, they were called back to another fire at the hotel, reported to have started in the grass beside the building. This second fire resulted in the complete destruction of the 105-year-old building.

On March 12 of this year, Leslie Robertson, the hotel’s owner, filed a suit with the Court of Queen’s Bench seeking special damages, general damages, costs and interest. Robertson is alleging that the Town and the individual firefighters were negligent in fighting the fire.

He says that in addition to the loss of the building, lost in the fire were three days’ worth of undeposited money and the contents of an ATM. He’s pegging his total loss

A

Kate Jackman-Atkinson at $2 million. MLL has joined this suit, seeking damages for the VLT machines destroyed in the blaze, which were worth about $149,600. However, the corporation is claiming that the suit was brought forward by their insurance company, not them.

The suit alleges that the second fire was a result of a rekindling of the first fire, which the fire department failed to properly extinguish before leaving the scene. When the second fire started, the sprinkler and alarm systems in the building hadn’t been reactivated following the first fire.

Previous reporting from the Winnipeg Free Press said that at the time of the blaze, The Pas had no fire chief and the acting chief was taking time off.

I haven’t seen an official report on the incident and I won’t question whether the second fire was a rekindling of the first one, or an arsonist’s second attempt. I don’t know enough about protocol when it comes to securing

a site following a fire to judge the department’s actions.

I don’t take issue with the building owner seeking legal recourse against the Town and its fire department for alleged deficiencies in performing their duties.

I do take issue with the firefighters being personally named in the case.

According to their most recent annual report, in 2018, MLL’s total revenue was $1.4 billion and its net income was $610 million. There is no way it doesn’t look like bad form for such a large corporation to go after individual volunteer firefighters over what is a rounding error to the corporation, even if they didn’t personally bring the suit forward.

Many communities struggle to find volunteer firefighters and for some, responding to a call means not only risking their lives, but also giving up higher paying income at their full time jobs. Without these individuals, we would have no protection beyond a bucket brigade of friends and neighbours. We don’t need anything else that discourages someone from joining a department.

The mayor of The Pas has said that the firefighters will be covered under the Town’s insurance policy, but that doesn’t save them from the stress of being named in the suit. Proving that the individual firefighters were grossly negligent is a pretty high threshold to meet, there’s very little to be gained by including them in the suit.

Waiting and watching

fter one of the snowiest and coldest winters in my memory, I hope that everyone is on alert for what the next six weeks may bring. I hope that RMs and towns are ready for what the weather may throw at us. A quick look to Nebraska this week will show us that we need to be ready.

Certainly the Red River Valley is in for a rough go again this spring. However, closer to home, there may be trouble too. I worry about the integrity of the man-made dams at Minnedosa, Rivers and Neepawa. The latter two earthen dams with concrete spillways are about 60 years old. The Minnedosa dam is much older and it did burst in 1948.

Hopefully these dams, and others, have been maintained and inspected. About 20 years ago, a dike and a smaller dam, the one at Park Lake in Neepawa, nearly burst. The number of homes that would have been affected wasn’t large, but there could have been a lot of damage.

The Whitemud River is pretty small, but flooding will likely take place at many spots, including Neepawa, Arden, Gladstone, Woodside and Westbourne.

Every time there is a flood, people “talk” about water retention ponds and yet, little happens. It would seem to make sense to retain water and then irrigate in dry seasons and dry years. Few do it because it is very expensive. It’s a lot cheaper, in the short run, to drain land than to build water retention dams and ponds.

The Big Grass Marsh area will almost certainly get hit this year, as there would appear to be a lot of snow in the catchment area and it all has to accumulate for a while in the marsh. It is a problem that farmers and ranchers have been coping with for

MY PERSPECTIVE

RIGHT IN THE CENTRE

Ken Waddell over 100 years.

On the edge of our paper’s coverage area, it is reported that the Assiniboine River may be in better shape than some areas, but we can be assured there will be flooding all along that river. Many people have forgotten, if they ever knew, that the Portage Diversion and the Shellmouth Dam were the only two projects that were completed along the Assiniboine many years ago. There was at least one other project that was rejected for a variety of reasons. Until the early 1950s, the Assiniboine River crossing on PTH 34, north of Holland, was not a bridge, but a ferry boat. The current bridge was also supposed to be the site of a huge water retention dam that might have backed the water up for 20 miles. I was told it wasn’t built due to cost and the amount of river flats farmland that would have gone forever underwater.

The reality is that parts of central Manitoba are basically a big bath tub and the drain hole is at Winnipeg. There is nothing that can be done to change the geography.

Winnipeg, Portage, Brandon and many other places are simply built in the wrong spots. The early dependence on the rivers for water and transportation made for convenient construction, not strategic building.

It’s too late to change that.

It would take a major shift in government,

and perhaps voter thinking, but we need to move on with a number of initiatives. Some farmland simply should not be farmed. Some can be farmed on an at-own-risk basis, but shouldn’t be covered by crop insurance.

There should be tax and development incentives to build water retention structures. As much as farmers will hate me for saying it, farm land drainage and bush clearing needs to be curbed. That said, it’s almost impossible and very costly to enforce. How do you tell a land owner, or a land buyer, that they can’t clear bush, drain sloughs, bury the rock piles in the sloughs and then fill them in?

I have been watching the effects of our current policies for over 60 years; as a child, I was fascinated by spring run-off and the effect that water had on the land and crops.

Given the limits of geography and money, we can’t control as much as we might like to think we can. We can stay safe and sensible this spring and I encourage everyone to do so.

ame across a quote in Richard Wagamese’s Embers – One Ojibway’s Meditations- “I’ve been referred to as odd before. Nowadays, I prefer to refer to myself as ‘awed’. I want awe to be the greatest ongoing relationship in my life.” Those words compliment another wish I have for each day to be “wonder filled”, not necessarily “wonderful”.

When I look at this wondrous world around me, I can get bogged down by the injustice and hate. These hurts are real and all around us, among many other wrongs in this world. When I focus on the negative, I flounder. Personally and spiritually.

These are the very times I need to be awed. Awed by the soft spring breeze, or the blast of winter. Awed by the calm and coloured sunset, or the bank of thunderclouds. Wonder filled at the majesty of creation and even further, the majesty of the Creator.

I sit easy with the term “odd”. Not everyone is comfortable with a home filled with family and dogs. I appreciate the presence of live in family and their pets. I am familiar with the open home philosophy. I am odd in many ways, some never seen or appreciated by my world! So much easier on the ego to

be awed rather than odd.

There is another phrase that has been ricocheting around my thoughts. Remembering as re-membering. The practice of remembering as way to bring ourselves back to wholeness. Putting the pieces of our life, of ourself, into a working model. I had seen this as a spiritual practice, reviewing the foundations of my faith to keep myself grounded. We see the Israelites perform this practice regularly– they remember the goodness of their God as they were led out of slavery and into the Promised Land. To this day, they remember and give thanks. I am grounded when I recall the ways and times my God has guided and protected me, from myself and from others. I see this re-membering with the current interest in genealogy. We want to see where and who we came from, the humanness of our ancestors, we want to be put back together and be whole. It is an interesting thought.

Odd thoughts by an awed individual. The author, Wagamese, includes a paragraph that combines the awe and wonder: “The beginning of wisdom is the same as its attainment: wonder.

The truest statement in the world is ‘you never know’. There is always something to evoke wonder, to wonder about, because this world, this life, this universe, this reality is far more than just the sum of its parts. Even the slightest detail contains much more. The overwhelming awe and wonder we feel teach us more than we can ever glean or come to know of things. In the presence of that wonder, the head has no answers and the heart has no questions.”

When we feel lost and fractured, sit in awe. Lose yourself in a work of art, a song, the written word, the warmth of friendship.

Remember and be re-membered.

Vancouver Rugby Sevens Invitational Local rugby players represent Manitoba and Rivers

Sarah McLeod Rivers MB From March 6-10, four Rivers girls travelled to Vancouver to compete with Team Manitoba in the Vancouver Sevens Invitational Tournament at the University of BC campus.

Shelby Schmidt, Brooklyn Zemliak and Brianne Zemliak competed with the U16 provincial team and Jordan McLeod with the U18 team. This was the debut provincial performance for Shelby, Brooklyn and Brianne. Jordan has travelled for the last three years with the U18 team.

Having the tournament at UBC was exciting for Jordan, as it gave her the opportunity to tour the campus and play on the field that will be her home this coming fall. In January this year, Jordan received a scholarship and signed with the UBC Thunderbirds for her university career.

She is looking forward to a warmer winter next year and being able to play rugby outside year round!

U16 provincial coach Rodney Carberry of Dauphin shared the following: "We were happy to have Shelby and the twins travel with us, they contributed

to the team system and the success that we did see out there. We leaned on Shelby's confidence carrying the ball to swing it out wide and get the ball in the speedy hands of our wings who were usually either Brooklyn or Brianne. The majority of the 39 points were scored by the twins, using their speed and the team working within the system we put in place."

Although the ladies had a tough tourney, Jordan scored the 1st try (5 points) and converted three tries with successful kicks (2 points each). Each of the teams managed to win one game!

There were U16 and U 18 boys from Manitoba in Vancouver as well. We have one local grade 12 player in the Westman High School Rugby league and some Grade 9-11s as well. These boys play for the Elton Sabres. RCI co-ops with Forest and Minnedosa to make the boys team. We'd love to see more boys involved. Reach out to Erich Schmidt or one of the other boys for more info. Their spring practices are underway as well.

Speaking of spring high school rugby, the girls have been practising with their

co-op team out of Minnedosa since January. There are 12 girls from Rivers making the trek over twice a week for practices! The girls are looking to defend back to back league and provincial championships. They have not been defeated in the past two years of play.

In January, the team was honoured to be selected as the Brandon Sun Sports Team of the year for 2018.

They are the first ever

rugby team to be chosen!

We are proud of you ladies!

The team is excited to kick off their league with their first home game on April 22. The game will

hopefully take place in Rivers! It will be very exciting as the girls kick off against Vincent Massey from Brandon. We will keep you posted with confirmation

Hall was filled for the presentation of two-one act plays by the Rivers Drama Club. There was every reason to fear that the prevailing epidemic of influenza would result in a serious depletion of the usual good attendance and undoubtedly, many were kept away through this cause.

The audience was an appreciative one and was rewarded with two plays of entirely different appeal, yet both excellent.

The school was formed in April of 1947, for the training of personnel of the three services in all aspects of ground-air operations.

Since then, it has become particularly well known as the proving ground for army paratroopers and as the jumping off point for a number of spectacular mercy flights into the eastern arctic.

Personnel of all three services will continue to be trained at the centre. At the present time, members of the PPCLI are undergoing parachute training there.

The 1969 Bonneville Pontiac, when equipped with oxygen and

suction will total $15,906.

All monies have been raised through the volunteer fire department in individual and group donations, through local projects and grants and from the Daly and Blandshard and the Town. A walk-a-thon is being planned to raise about $100, to cover the interest charges on a basic loan. Rivers and Daly grants are spread over a three year period. This money was borrowed at the bank by the fire department to complete the purchase of the ambulance.

“Conservation will ultimately boil down to rewarding the private landowner who conserves the public interest.”

Voting runs until midnight on April 16, 2019. Manitobans can nominate their Worst Road online at caaworstroads.com or through the CAA app. Voters can identify themselves as motorists, cyclists, pedestrians or transit riders and pinpoint a particular stretch of the road for crumbling infrastructure, safety and congestion.

Moreover, nearly 75 per cent of CAA Members believe that not enough is being done to maintain roads, and that repairs are not occurring in a timely fashion.”

Worst Roads are classified as having potholes, crumbling pavement, poor road signage, limited or non-existent cycling or walking infrastructure, traffic congestion, or limited crossing opportunities.
