Have a look at the Manitoba Recreational Fish Consumption Guidelines. Although there aren't any stats for St. Francois Xavier, you can look up the Assiniboine River near Portage La Prairie.

The gist of the matter is that you can safely eat fish from both the Red and the Assinaboine rivers. However, just like with all fish these days you don't want to eat too many due to the build-up of heavy metals (like mercury) that the fish absorb from pollution.
