    We had a great time at the 49th Manitoba Watersheds Conference this week. DataStream’s Patrick Schaefer shared a booth with Lake Winnipeg Foundation. There were many great conversations about how to protect our watersheds and the best ways to share and use open data. Thank you to Manitoba Association of Watersheds for organizing! *** Nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir à participer à la 49e Conférence sur les bassins versants du Manitoba cette semaine.
