- Notes
- "Thirty years ago Moose Lake, Manitoba, was a contented native community, with a diverse economy based on trapping, fishing, hunting and farming. That all changed when the Manitoba Hydro built a dam which flooded the land, destroying wildlife, making fishing difficult and wiping out agricultural activity. Negotiations are now underway with Manitoba Hydro for compensation. A $10,000 Primate's Fund grant is helping to provide research and documentation needed to develop a compensation package. This work is being done in consultation with the whole community. Bishop John Conlin of the diocese of Brandon has actively supported the community in its efforts."
