‘Very quiet around here’: Duck Mountain biz owners plead for assistance after flooding washes out park

Morgan Modjeski 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 6:38 PM CDT

Business owners at Duck Mountain Provincial Park who have lost thousands in revenue say they’re feeling left out of flood-recovery assistance in the Parkland region.

Dawn Dowsett, owner of Blue Lake Resort, said life has been chaotic since the park closed on June 30 due to road washouts.

While there is limited access to the park, with some seasonal campers and cabin owners returning, it’s listed as closed on the Government of Manitoba’s website, with no nightly camping available until July 23.

She says the resort, which includes a restaurant and store, is missing out on part of the summer, a peak time for the business.

Indigenous theatre founder gets nod for prestigious prize

Ben Waldman 2 minute read Yesterday at 2:02 AM CDT

For her work as the founding artistic director of Oshkagoojin Indigenous Theatre for Youth, Winnipeg’s Nova Courchene has been named the recipient of one of Manitoba theatre’s highest honours for emerging arts leaders.

Since 2023, the Cherry Karpyshin Arts Management Prize has been given out by Prairie Theatre Exchange to early-career or aspiring arts managers. Named for PTE’s longtime general manager, for whom the company’s mainstage is also named, the Cherry Prize is accompanied by professional supports and a $2,500 cash award.

Meaning “new moon” in Anishinaabemowin, Oshkagoojin runs a variety of initiatives in Winnipeg, including the teen-focused Rising Voices, the middle years Growing Voices, and the early years Young Voices programs. Through storytelling, movement, narrative games and guided play, the Young Voices program introduces Indigenous children aged five through nine to the fundamentals of collaborative and co-operative theatre with a curriculum devised through a cultural lens.

“As I continue to grow Oshkagoojin Indigenous Theatre for Youth, I look forward to strengthening the organization’s capacity, sustainability, and national reach so that more Indigenous young people can access theatre, cultural learning, and artistic leadership opportunities in their own communities,” says Courchene in a release. “I believe that when Indigenous youth are empowered to tell their stories, entire communities benefit, and I am excited to continue building these pathways for future generations.

Whether it was helping women build businesses in rural Tunisia, leading homeless and addiction support organizations or delivering meals to vulnerable Manitobans, Marla Somersall spent her life dedicated to lessening other people’s suffering.

Over a career that took her from North Africa to Prince Edward Island and back to Manitoba, Somersall held leadership roles in a range of social service and non-profit organizations, always drawn to work that centred on supporting people in need.

Most recently, she served as executive director of Meals on Wheels Winnipeg — a non-profit organization that provides meals to people who are unable to prepare them for themselves.

Kelly Scrivener, client co-ordinator with Meals on Wheels, said Somersall was a very calm and respectful person who led with gentle direction and fostered a collaborative workplace.

A judge urged Ronald Marmito Amigo to address his addiction to methamphetamine as she sentenced him last year for lighting a fire in a storage area at Garden City Shopping Centre and another in a nearby dumpster while high.

“Where you are right now is a direct result of your addictions, everything that is going on in your life is a direct result of your addictions, and until you see that, accept that and deal with your addictions, things aren’t going to get better in your life,” provincial court Judge Patrice Miniely told Amigo last July.

She gave Amigo 27 days in jail and 18 months of supervised probation for arson to property and a court order breach over the Jan. 29, 2025 incidents.

The 47-year-old is now accused of setting the bedding section of the St. Vital Centre Walmart ablaze on Monday, resulting in more than $10 million in damage and forcing the evacuation of 150-200 customers and staff.
