It was con ceived in 1976, underwent a gestation period of a few months until the decision was made to have the history written by a group of members rather than one individual. How long should the history be? It could fill many hundreds of pages, but time and money would not permit the compiling of a lengthy book. Condensing sixty-six years into about as many pages was quite a challenge. Undoubtedly some of our members will be disappointed because events they considered unforgettable have not been mentioned, but it is not possible to refer to every single event, just as it is not possible to name every person who has participated in the Centre's activities since the day of inception. -

River Road to Rivergate Drive Study Recommendations
MORE PEOPLE BIKING MORE OFTEN River Road to Rivergate Drive Study Recommendations Given the poor lack of north/south connectivity between River Road and the Henteleff Park/South St. Vital Trail corridor, a pathway along the Red River connecting the Minnetonka and Normand Park neigbourhoods would be a positive addition to Winnipeg’s bicycle network. Ultimately, we feel that this pathway could be extended south to Maple Grove Park. Of course, any investment in a pathway connection along the Red River will need to maximize connections to the local and regional bicycle network, and to neighbourhood, community, and regional destinations. We feel that the benefits of this project would be greatly increased by improving walking and cycling connections to St. Amant Centre, Minnetonka School and Park, Greendell Park Community Centre, and Darwin School & Park. Ideally, the planned pathway would also provide a spur giving access across St. Mary’s Road into Dakota Park and the River Park South neighbouhood, but given potential rights of way and their distance from existing traffic signals on St. Mary’s Road, this may not be achievable. Without a signalized crossing of St. Mary’s Road and access through the Okolita Park development into Dakota Park, we feel that the missing connections to St. Amant Cenre, Minnetonka School and Park, and Greendell Park Community Centre should take priority over any connection to St. Mary’s Road.

ELECTORAL DISTRICTS Proposal for the Province of Manitoba
ELECTORAL DISTRICTS Proposal for the Province of Manitoba Published pursuant to the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act Table of Contents Part I — Preamble ........................................................................................................................... 3 Part II — Notice of Sittings for the Hearing of Representations .................................................. 10 Part III — Rules ............................................................................................................................ 11 Schedule — Maps, Proposed Boundaries and Names of Electoral Districts ................................ 14 2 Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for the Province of Manitoba Proposal Part I — Preamble Introduction Each decade, after the decennial census is completed, a key democratic exercise called electoral redistribution takes place. Redistribution is meant to reflect population growth and the territorial shifts in population both among and within provinces. There are two steps in the redistribution process. The first step involves a recalculation of the number of seats in the House of Commons given to each province based on new population estimates and a complex formula contained in the Constitution. After the current redistribution, the number of seats in the House of Commons will have increased from 308 to 338. Four provinces—Alberta, British Columbia, Quebec and Ontario—will gain seats. Along with five other provinces, Manitoba is retaining the same number of seats (14) that it had before -
