Statement from Senator Stratton the passing of Harry Enns
June 27, 2010
It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we learn of the passing of Harry Enns on Thursday, June 24, 2010 at the age of 78.

Harry was first elected to the Manitoba Legislature in 1966 and served until 2003.  During this time he served in both government and opposition and held several positions including Minister of Agriculture, Minister of Highways, Minister of Public Works and Minister of Natural Resources.

Through his years of experience and his vast wealth of knowledge he was nicknamed “dean” of the legislature.  He was always someone to call upon for advice.
Although he represented an area in rural Manitoba for 37 years, Harry was more than just a politician.  He was a family man, a rancher and an advocate for agricultural issues.

To his wife Eleanor and their family, my deepest condolences.  Harry will be sadly missed.

Good bye old friend.
