North Whiteshell businesses welcome back customers after record flooding

Business owners in the Whiteshell Provincial Park are trying to get back to normal weeks after receiving evacuation orders amid record floods in the region. The high water in the eastern Manitoba park caused major damages, resulting in lost revenue for businesses already affected by a wet spring and delayed summer. D.J. Seales, owner of the Barrier Bay resort and president of the North Whiteshell Business Association, says the last few weeks of closures could cost surrounding businesses hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair.
