Freewest, Nuinsco, and Wolfden have all been around there at times ... and Arrow, of course not far away was where Larche made it big ... i didn't know that about Winnipeg, thought they'd get their water closer ... but i guess it's not that far, and maybe cleaner being away from farmland

Shoal Lake is the source of Winnipeg's water.

Winnipegger's needn't worry. The distance of 100 miles and CDN standards for tailings dams, the low relief and lack of slides and earthquakes indicates that risk is very low.

Nevertheless a dual pronged approach of protected dam walls, as well as good cyanide destruction technology would be good insurance.

Cons Professor had a property on Shoal Lake in the 80's
