During the danger of a controlled "break" at the Hoop & HollerDam, outside Portage during the flooding of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, Lionel Bouchard requested a one-day permit in order to move his motor home from storage at his in-laws Fernand & Denise Gervais's.
Rick Desilets refused to issue a one day permit on an "emergency basis" to brother-in-laws Gilbert and Pauline Gervais who were once again moving unit out of floods way to their farm!
Rick Desilets denied a permit despite Lionel Bouchard doing business at Desilets Insurance in Elie all his life! Subsequently Lionel Bouchard received a letter from Manitoba Public Insurance after being denied renewal for storage for his vehicle.
"Kudos" to Wilf's Elie Ford for providing a dealer plate to assist in the move! Also for not charging when unit disabled maliciously while parked off the Bouchard homestead!
" Kudo's" to Wilf's Elie Ford for coming to the rescue by providing dealer plates to move the Vanguard motor home at the time of flooding."
Also for not charging at the time the motor homewas maliciously vandalised and disabled while parked off the Bouchard property in Elie.
