WINNIPEG — Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter was back at a Habitat for Humanity worksite Friday, a day after he was hospitaliz­ed for dehydratio­n while working with the organizati­on to build homes for needy families in Canada. A smiling Carter showed up in blue jeans and a work shirt to the site in the St. James neighbourh­ood of Winnipeg, where hundreds of Habitat for Humanity volunteers joined the former president and his wife, Rosalynn, to build 25 homes. Carter, 92, was discharged earlier in the morning from St. Boniface General Hospital where he was treated “as a precaution” for dehydratio­n, Carter spokeswoma­n Deanna Congileo said.
