  • Innovative New Weather Network Sprouts from Prairie Soil
    INNOVATIVE NEW WEATHER NETWORK SPROUTS FROM PRAIRIE SOIL WeatherBug launches first major national network in Canada Winnipeg, Manitoba – – An extensive network of hundreds of weather-monitoring stations is about to spring up across Western Canada. Farmers, grain companies, schools, businesses and government agencies will work together across the Prairies to build a weather network linked through the Internet, providing invaluable up-to-the-minute, local weather information. The new weather network was launched today by WeatherBug®, the world's leading provider of local weather information, in partnership with the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) and Pioneer Grain, a subsidiary of James Richardson International (JRI). The project was conceived and initiated by the CWB's weather and crop surveillance department as a benefit to western Canadian farmers. Enabled by WeatherBug's proprietary networking technology and operational capabilities, the network in Canada will deliver accurate weather information for Prairie farmers, professional users and consumers. "Access to weather information has major financial benefits for farmers, whether they're spraying valuable chemicals, predicting yields or pinpointing a farm management problem," CWB President and CEO Greg Arason said. "This network will also improve information used by CWB analysts to market farmers' grain for maximum return." Pioneer Grain will install weather stations at its ag business centers all across Western Canada. "By sharing data from the weather stations, we will be better positioned to help producers with important crop management decisions" said JRI President Curt Vossen. "Once the network is installed, producers will be able to access accurate local weather information through our Web site at www.pioneergrain.com.

  • END of an ERA Roger Gibbins Retires After 14 Years at the Helm of the Canada West Foundation
    WINDOW ON THE 2012 MAY WEST www.cwf.ca western canadian policy matters END OF AN ERA Roger Gibbins retires after 14 years at the helm of the Canada West Foundation > Unlocking Manitoba’s Transportation Gateway > Reflections on a Dynamic and Prosperous West > Natural Gas as a Transportation Fuel A Strong West in a Strong Canada The Canada West Foundation is the only think tank dedicated to being the objective voice for public policy issues of vital concern to western Canadians. Sometimes these issues are unique to the West, but more often they resonate right across Canada. We are resolutely nonpartisan. We let the research do the talking rather than rely on predetermined positions. Our goals are straightforward: better government policy; a prosperous West in a prosperous Canada; fair treatment of all regions in the federation; and a strong democracy based on open debate and meaningful citizen engagement. Over the past 40 years, our research and recommendations have advanced all four of these goals. We are a source of ideas and information. We are a facilitator of discussion and civic participation. We give the people of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba a voice. A voice for their aspirations, interests and concerns. As westerners, we understand the people and the places of the West. We know our history and how it influences our future. Whether it is the economy, energy, environment, education, healthcare, taxes, social services, urban issues, intergovernmental relations or any other policy area of importance to the West, we have researched it, commented on it, stimulated debate about it and recommended practical options for improving the policy response—all from a uniquely western point of view.

Hier sind lustige Fakten und Aspekte der Superlative aus Manitoba, die so manchen überraschen dürften… Wunder der Tierwelt In Manitoba befindet sich die weltweit größte Paarungshöhle der Welt – und zwar für die Rotseiten-Strumpfbandnatter.

Sich windende Schlangenbündel sorgen für einen fantastischen Anblick! In der Hudson Bay leben im Sommer bis zu 50.000 Belugawale, 5.000 von ihnen besuchen in den Monaten Juli und August die Gegend rund um Churchill. Im Kajak können Besucher den Walen ganz nahe kommen!
