TADOULE LAKE, Man. — A northern Manitoba fly-in community is running low on heating fuel as heavy snow prevents trucks from bringing more. Sayisi Dene First Nation Chief Tony Powderhorn says the snow has delayed the opening of a winter road that Tadoule Lake counts on for its yearly fuel supply. Powderhorn said this isn’t the first time Tadoule Lake has run low on fuel, but he said the bitter cold has made the situation more urgent. “From what I heard the tanks are empty,” said Cheekie in a phone interview from Tadoule Lake.
