'Everybody's anxious': 1,800 wildfire evacuees wait for flights home from Winnipeg and Brandon

Fewer than 2,000 people forced from their homes due to wildfires in northern Manitoba remain in southern Manitoba after more than 1,300 were flown home over the weekend.

At the airport in Brandon, Man., on Monday, people from the Wasagamack and Garden Hill First Nations waited, many anxious but excited, to get on one of 13 flights scheduled to leave Brandon on Monday for St. Theresa Point, the nearest airport to the communities.
