In the meantime, the drainage basin on the other (Agassiz) side of the continental divide from the Mississippi headwaters has been experiencing very high levels. (Following long-term flooding this spring.) Manitoba reports:

"Inflows were the highest-ever recorded and due to exceptional precipitation across southern Manitoba and Northwest Ontario this spring, especially in the Winnipeg River and Red River watersheds." - https://www.hydro.mb.ca/corporate/facilities/water_levels/

FWIW, historically, the lands up there haven't been 'improved' very much.
