The Mountain View School Division is changing the way they buy new buses.

The division is moving to a menu-based pricing structure that provides options on prices of bus costs and different features.

After reviewing these prices, the division will determine the best bus and features for their needs.

In the past, manufacturers submitted a bid on the price of their buses and provided pricing on extra optional features.

The process will follow similar timelines, with pricing to be determined by mid-March.

All the talk today is about removing the stigma of mental health.

Eleanor Snitka, the Outreach manager at the Mood Disorders Association of Manitoba, says it’s important to remove the stigma from mental illnesses.

“I think the importance of removing stigma is that we get people talking about it,” says Snitka, “Getting people to get help, and helping people suffering from mental health problems, and helping them get through it.”
