Winnipeg refuge for victims going through court process named for murdered teen
WINNIPEG — Victims of crime and their families in Winnipeg will soon have a refuge while going through the court process.
Candace House is a short walk from the city’s courthouse.
Wilma Derksen has been working on the project for 33 years in honour of her daughter Candace.
The 13-year-old Winnipeg girl disappeared on her way home from school in Nov. 1984, and her body was found six weeks later in a shed.
