The R.M. of La Broquerie wants to halt plans to build a water pipeline from Marchand to Morris.

Reeve Ken Mantie says two years ago when he first heard about Pembina Valley Water Co-op's plan to build a pipeline from the Sandilands into the Red River Valley he didn't like it, and his concerns are even greater now.


He doesn't like having this pipeline right in their backyard and is worried that one day they might be out of water.


La Broquerie council will be asking Hanover, Steinbach and Ste. Anne councils to consider joining together to make a presentation to the Manitoba Clean Environment commission during the hearings November 7 and 9 at Friedensfeld Hall.
