Pedersen Monitoring Flooding In Southeast Manitoba

Manitoba Agriculture and Resource Development Minister Blaine Pedersen is conversing with his colleagues in the southeast about the flooding situation.
 
"Crops have been flooded out and pasture land and the roads are a concern in order to get feed into livestock barns and to check on livestock," he said. "For personal security too, when roads get washed out it can cause some real angst for families."

He's considering a trip to the area to assess the situation.
