It Is a Good Weekend to Think Fire Safety

As you turn you clocks back to standard time this weekend, the Flin Flon Fire Department wants you to also think about fire safety.  Fire Chief Jim Petrie says start with your smoke detectors.  He explains you want t o make sure those smoke detectors are operational as they are a life saving device and batteries wear out so change them at least once a year but preferably twice a year. He adds you want to make sure at two o’clock in the morning when that thing goes off you have time to get out because if it doesn’t go off it’s the smoke that will kill you.

             

Petrie also reminds you to create and practice a home escape plan and make sure your chimney is clean.

You Can be Trained in the North

Premier Greg Selinger and representatives of apprenticeship and training programs held a skills and jobs community forum in Flin Flon.  Selinger says through this forum employers can learn how to get into apprenticeship programs and students of all ages how to get the skills they need to be employable.  He says the idea behind it is to show and explain to the community all the opportunities there are in the trades in this province.  He adds we’ve got a huge number of building projects going on, we’ve got trucking, welding, manufacturing, all kinds of things going on in this province and if people want to have a good job where they can make a good living and stay close to their communities and live and work in Manitoba and raise a family there’s good opportunities.

 

Selinger mentioned the new training center at Frontier Collegiate in Cranberry Portage as well as the new skills training program at Hapnot Collegiate and Northern Mining Academy in Flin Flon.

Pettersen Selinger Goes

Another MLA has come out against Premier Greg Selinger – backbencher Clarence Pettersen, the MLA for Flin Flon.

 

Pettersen said this morning Selinger has to go.

 

He says after talking with the Premier for an hour yesterday on his skills tour, I think he should resign for the betterment of what’s more important than all of us – the people of Manitoba.

 

Pettersen also says the Premier’s resignation is not something that just came up. He says caucus members have been talking about it since the summer.

 

Earlier this week, five senior cabinet ministers suggested the Premier should consider stepping aside. Selinger says he’s not going anywhere.

 

Students Are Increasing Their Skills.

Premier Greg Selinger officially opened the new Skills Training Center at Hapnot Collegiate yesterday afternoon.  He explained the idea behind skills programs is that young people can get an academic education and they can get a set of skills that allow them to make good wages and get good jobs right out of high school.  He says they’ll be able to do things like carpentry, plumbing and other trades that will give them a good solid foundation for the future and that is what their vision is for schools in Manitoba.

             

Hapnot Principal Brent Bedford says students are already using the new space which will create opportunities to take courses in a variety of trades.  Also attending the opening were students, Hapnot’s shop teacher Colin Davis and MLA Clarence Pettersen.

 

Some Adults Can Receive Free Driving Training

Premier Greg Selinger announced at the opening of the Skills Training Center in Flin Flon yesterday a new partnership between the Manitoba Government and Manitoba Public Insurance will expand adult driver education training in the north free of charge for low income and unemployed adults to help them get access to job opportunities.  He says they know that a lot of times job opportunities take a bit of a trip to get there and a driver’s licence will make it that much easier to do that.  He says if you can drive and you’ve got a trade and an academic education you’ve got a passport to the future, there’s no wrong doors, every opportunity will be available to you and you can grow in a direction you want to grow in with many choices.

             

The new program will be incorporated into existing job readiness training already underway in Flin Flon, The Pas and Thompson with classes starting November 26th including 16 hours of in class instruction and eight hours of in car instruction with a professionally trained instructor.

Northern Students are Benefiting From Collegiate Programs

Dan Reagan spoke to the Flin Flon and District Chamber of Commerce yesterday on schooling initiatives in Cranberry Portage.  He said the new student’s residence and vocational training programs are a great benefit to northern communities where there is a deficit in education. He says there are 25 to 30 different communities that send students to Cranberry Portage.  He explained these are communities that don’t have high schools or a lot of the kids come in what’s called programs not offered.  For example Reagan says they are coming from Moose Lake where they have grade twelve but they are taking building construction and they are also going to mechanics big time and cosmetology and things like that so that’s how they get the kids to come and that’s really what Cranberry’s lifeline is and that’s what they’re trying to develop.

             

Reagan adds they offer week long, month long and semester long programs at the collegiate as well as at the nearby Egg Lake location where they are building a house while offering a level one apprenticeship program. He says these types of programs get students interested in education and they will hopefully continue with it.

Fraud is More Common Than You Think

RBC Branch Manager Michael Yarowy and Senior Accounts Manager Cheryl Hilts spoke to yesterday’s Flin Flon and District Chamber of Commerce meeting on protecting your small business from fraud.  Hilts says approximately 50 percent of business owners experience fraud but it’s often under reported.  She said internal fraud can happen anywhere and includes asset misappropriation, theft, corruption, cheque fraud and technology fraud but there are ways to protect your business.  She says you should have more than one person responsible for your business finances, implement mandatory vacations and perform background checks on employees, hire an external analyst to perform audits, keep diligent records to avoid duplicate or false payments, remember your cheque processing red flags and review your accounts regularly online so you can monitor your business transactions and balances.

There are Problems at Triple Seven Mine

Hudbay’s Director of Corporate Communications has released a statement on the shutdown of operations at Triple Seven Mine in Flin Flon.  It states on Monday at Triple Seven Mine the ore conveyance became lodged in the main production shaft.  It occurred at a time that did not affect the employees on shift from coming to surface.  Their main concern is safety and they are working in conjunction with the Mines Inspector to return the shaft to full function.  They assess progress on a daily basis and based on the information today they anticipate repairs will be completed in a few more days.  Identifying the cause is part of that process.

             

The statement continues normal underground operations have been halted but underground shaft repairs are being done by their employees in conjunction with their Health and Safety teams and the Mines Branch.  Employees will go underground once the shaft has been safely secured.

             

They are exploring potential options to redeploy employees who cannot go underground during the repairs.  In the meantime the Flin Flon concentrator continues to treat ore from Reed and Triple Seven North and the zinc plant is drawing on a large quantity of stockpiled concentrate.

Niki Ashton Childcare

There’s an urgent need for affordable childcare in Canada.  
 
Churchill MP Niki Ashton says the NDP has heard that message loud and clear.
 
Ashton said that in 2014 it’s unacceptable that many families have to pay as much for childcare as rent.   In their bid to come up with a national childcare program, the NDP launched consultations with parents, experts and community activists this summer.   The focus of those consultations are early childhood education and childcare.   
 
Ashton says that after 30 years of empty promises from the federal government the NDP will be the ones to announce details of a national childcare program in the coming weeks.

Plans are to Continue a Split Tax Bill
