MANITOBA GETS A NEARLY FAILING GRADE:
This Tuesday, the Government of Manitoba released their yearly budget. However, we noticed there was a lot missing. A complete lack of meaningful funding for climate action!

💧The Manitoba Eco-Network would like to thank FortWhyte Alive for having us at their World Water Day event last weekend!

💧This was a great opportunity for Manitobans of all ages to learn about water conservation and participate in special educational activities. This featured guest speakers, storytelling, interactive challenges, film screenings, and a guided watershed hike.

💧The Manitoba Eco-Network is proud to participate in events like this: we look forward to seeing you at the next one!
