U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Clinton has become involved in a cross-border flooding dispute between Manitoba and North Dakota, according to a report out of the U.S.

Fargo radio station KFGO is reporting that Clinton agreed after speaking with Sen. Byron Dorgan to help resolve a dispute over a 48-km stretch of Manitoba road near the border. North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven has said the road acts like a dike and keeps floodwater inside his state, and has asked Manitoba officials to fix the problem.

The Pembina Water Resources District is suing Manitoba over the road.
Maybe that asswipe Dorgan will lose his arrogant attitude on the Devils Lake diversion project...

Can't make those damn Yankees happy, first they want to send us more water, and when we want them to keep it, they just get mad. If Hilary gets involved, maybe RC can send Bill a couple of his cigars. Very Happy

Let's resolve the Devils Lake filtration system first, then we'll talk.

They are tied together.

Thats been the provinces angle all along. When they start talking right about Devil's lake, then they can start talking about this little "dam" we built.

FYI at one point the prov government actually threatened to make teh "dam" even bigger.
