From CKLQ.com, regarding the cancellation of the Eco Odyssey program. As many who follow the news know, the program was saved from the chopping block not too long ago (per
this recent discussion).
-------------------
"A human caused fire in the Grand Rapids area last spring has been given as the reason the Brandon School Division has suspended its Eco Odyssey program.
Manitoba Conservation is investigating the fire which destroyed 43 thousand hectares and cost 4 and a half million dollars to put out.
The school division has confirmed that the Eco Odyssey program was in that area last May at the time of the fire.
Provincial officials continue their investigation and no details as to the exact cause of the fire have been released"
