Lake Friendly: Helping Manitobans keep Lake Winnipeg clean
Last year, a group of concerned citizens living near Lake Winnipeg started the Lake Friendly campaign in an effort to reduce wastewater pollution entering the lake. The organization assembled a group of familiar household products which are indeed lake-friendly, and then brought them to the attention of the Walmart store in Selkirk. The store responded warmly by creating a special Lake Friendly in-store display, making it easy for customers to choose environmentally approved products that won’t harm the lake.
Walmart Assistant General Manager, Ken Jenner who lives on Netley Creek, and Minister of Manitoba Water Stewardship, Christine Melnick hold up Lake Friendly products that are good for Lake Winnipeg.
