To help commemorate their 30th year in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL), the Neepawa Natives are going back to a look that harkens back to their first year. The junior “A” club has confirmed that the team colours for the 2018-2019 season will be silver, black and white. The style of the sweater will also be altered to match the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings. From 1989-1999, the Natives wore the L.A. Kings style sweaters, before converting to the Chicago Blackhawk style, which has been used in some variation since.

It’s an election year for all municipalities in Manitoba. Every four years we get to change or confirm the people who speak for us at the local level. We elect mayors and reeves, we elect councillors, and we elect school board trustees.
You probably have a good idea what a mayor or a reeve does. You probably know a councillor or two, and you know the things they deal with from day to day, and you may even have an idea how much those things can cost. You pick your representatives to set priorities and watch over your taxes with care and caution, and to understand what you need and what you can afford.
