We Are With You Manitoba!

Who hasn't watched a waterfall and felt the power, beauty and force of it's nature. A river can be beautiful until it rises beyond it's banks and threatens our homes. That's when it becomes personal and devastating. I was impressed that the Prime Minister of Canada would spend so much time viewing the damage in Manitoba.

Harper promises assistance for flood-hit Manitoba

Prime Minister Stephen Harper toured flood-stricken areas in southern Manitoba on Tuesday, and said the federal government would help the province recover from damage left by the rising Red River.

"The federal government stands ready to assist in any way that is needed ... as the situation unfolds," Harper told reporters in Winnipeg. "Anything that's needed, the people of Canada will be there to help the people of Manitoba."

I second PM Harper, if you need us, we will come! Read the comments on the article. The interesting thing is that most comments were pro-Harper, and they took the whiners to task. Funny how the comments were shut down really early, also funny is that CTV didn't happen to have any video of PM Harper that they could post on the site. Guess they could care less about the people of Manitoba because they couldn't bother to have an actual camera there, but I clearly remember two Liberal PM's touring the floods because they showed it to us endlessly on TV. PM Harper gets one picture and no video. Move along folks, nothing to see here.

Let me inform CTV of one little fact, if you show no video of the PM, I will not be able to watch those videos, and your advertisers are going to suffer because no one will be watching those ads you post before the actual video. You had 7 videos of experts etc., I clicked on NONE of them, so no ads watched, therefore no revenue. Oh, why do I bother, you guys figure it out. $$$$ lost because of pigheaded liberal media supporters, hint....think jobs people.

My heartfelt sympathy and prayers go out to the people of Manitoba fighting the floods. Our basement flooded in the 100 year and 200 year storms that hit Edmonton, it took months to get everything back to normal, but we did it.

Remember that things can be replaced, but lives are precious. Stay safe and guard your family first, then worry about your belongings.
