The extreme cold blanketing much of Manitoba grounded one of the province's newest bus lines Sunday night. Maple Bus Lines cancelled its scheduled route between Thompson and Winnipeg for the evening, as Environment Canada forecast an extreme wind chill that could make it feel as cold as —53 C in Thompson. Maple Bus Lines has been running a route between Thompson and Winnipeg since Greyhound Canada suspended service in the fall. Nearly the entire province of Manitoba was under under an Environment Canada extreme cold weather warning Sunday. An approaching warm front from should bring Manitoba out of the deep freeze Wednesday, says Environment Canada.
