WINNIPEG Business has all but stalled for Manitoba’s charter bus companies. Except for some school runs, president John Fehr says Winnipeg’s Beaver Bus Lines came to a halt when the pandemic began. It’s putting a financial strain on business “I’ve already, just last month, sold two buses and I’m looking to sell more,” said Fehr It’s the same story with other charter bus companies in Manitoba, as large weddings, festivals, sporting events and tours have been cancelled. David Anning is the president of Compass Coach Lines in Brandon. “It’s been a long struggle here over the last seven months. We’ve literally had zero revenue and right now we’re in survival mode,” said Anning
