Cowboys defence lacking impact of promising unit from 2018
October 17, 2019

The Cowboys answered with a touchdown to get within two, but the 2-point conversation attempt failed with 43 seconds remaining. The Cowboys are eighth in scoring defence at 19 points per game after finishing sixth last season. "There's been times where I think we've played well, at other times that we haven't," Heath said.

Letters, Oct. 8
October 8, 2019
Winnipeg Free Press - Even more significant is what has been done to the Kildonan Settlers Bridge on the Chief Peguis Trail. The City of Winnipeg recently spent several million dollars creating a bicycle/pedestrian trail between Henderson Highway and Main Street on the Chief Peguis Trail right-of-way. I did the preliminary geometric design for the Chief Peguis Trail more than five decades ago. I reside near the Chief Peguis Trail and use it daily, if not more often. Since the bicycle facility was completed several months ago, I have seen four cyclists on the Chief Peguis Trail.
