7 minute read Friday, Apr. 4, 2025WINNIPEG — Manitobans living in the U.S. and keen to vote in Canada’s election say it’s one of most consequential for their former home and native land.
“With the recent political rhetoric out there with the U.S. president kind of picking a fight with Canada, you know — calling it the 51st state — it’s really got me riled up to vote, to make my voice heard, to really take a stand and say, ‘No, we are a sovereign country, we will remain a sovereign country,’” said ex-Winnipegger Karen Rocznik, who moved to the States a decade ago.
The dual Canada-U.S. citizen living in Denver said she received her mail-in ballot Monday and is making sure her vote counts.
“I’m Canadian, first and foremost,” Rocznik said. “And I want to vote for somebody that is going to fight for us and is going to push back.”

3 minute read Saturday, Jun. 28, 2025There has been no further evidence of zebra mussels in the Assiniboine River since larvae were found late last year, with additional testing returning negative results.
The province announced in December that dead zebra mussel larvae were found in the river at the Brandon Generating Station (BGS).
Signage at the Assiniboine and Little Saskatchewan rivers has since been posted advising boaters to decontaminate their equipment, the province said in an email.
“The province is still determining the scope and extent of the detection and cannot know next steps until this information is known,” the email said.
