The province is monitoring 23 new fires reported over the weekend, with no communities at direct risk of fire.

There are currently 128 active fires in the province.

Impacted hydro lines along the east shore of Lake Winnipeg have been restored.

Little Grand Rapids and Pauingassi still have no power. Although a partial patrol of this line was conducted, fires are still burning in this area and no estimation of restoration can be given at this time.

The Manitoba Emergency Control Centre is working with BellMTS, RCMP, and the Manitoba Wildfire Service at Pauingassi and Little Grand Rapids First Nations to maintain communications in the area.

Evacuees from Red Sucker Lake First Nation in northeast Manitoba started returning home on Monday after being evacuated due to wildfires, but over 2 thousand people from four other First Nations are still stuck.
