Winnipeg's Water

 

The water we drink

1919 was not only the year of the General Strike and the tail end of the Spanish Influenza, but the year  also saw Winnipeg getting a new source water. Here is an article about the creation of the Shoal Aqueduct.

Here is a newer article about Shoal lake and our source of water.  Read at least up to "A Bridge not Built."

With the readings above and the class discussion, fill out the sheet Winnipeg's Water. Below are some more resources.
