Tourism Winnipeg 2011 Marketing Plan & Partnership Opportunities Tourism Winnipeg 2011 Marketing Plan & Partnership Opportunities 1 Message from the President & CEO and Senior Vice President Winnipeg’s tourism landscape is evolving at a rapid rate, presenting tremendous long-term opportunities for significant tourism growth. Moving the city forward are signature projects such as the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, a new airport terminal, downtown redevelopment including over $150 million invested by the University of Winnipeg, a new stadium, refreshed Manitoba Children’s Museum and redevelopment at the Assiniboine Park. Other exciting projects on the horizon include the opening of Ikea and high-end retail complex, an expanded convention centre, Upper Fort Garry and renewed riverfront walkway. 2011 is an important year for Tourism Winnipeg and the city’s tourism industry. After embarking on a creative and strategic planning process, Tourism Winnipeg released its Master Tourism Plan, identifying key priorities to be advanced over the next five years. The Master Tourism Plan is a holistic document that lays a hierarchal foundation to address destination management, where as the annual marketing plan plays a supporting role. The 2011 Marketing Plan & Partnership Opportunities captures the markets, objectives, and strategies Tourism Winnipeg will address in order to facilitate continued tourism growth for Winnipeg in collaboration with industry stakeholders. Industry partners are invited to engage audiences in the leisure, meetings and conventions, sports and special events and travel trade markets through Tourism Winnipeg’s co-operative sales and marketing initiatives. A major focus of Tourism Winnipeg’s integrated marketing efforts will be enhancing its online presence, including the addition of a mobile website, increased social network activity, the development of topic specific microsites, online reservation system and heightened visitor packaging and itineraries. Tourism Winnipeg will implement innovative niche market strategies through various platforms and lead in the development of new approaches to reach target demographics in the leisure travel, meetings and conventions, travel trade and sports and special events markets. Campaigns will be vibrant, bold, surprising, relevant, credible and most importantly, reflective of Winnipeg’s unique selling features. With the overarching Master Tourism Plan guiding the way and Tourism Winnipeg’s professional staff and industry stakeholders providing the energy and expertise, the 2011 Marketing Plan & Partnership Opportunities will effectively deliver measurable results and successfully maximize visitation and tourism expenditures.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

Promotional drawing of the Chateau Laurier Hotel, Ottawa, showing (left to right) the Parliament Buildings, Post Office, Chateau Laurier Hotel, and Central Union Passenger Station. Artist unknown, ca. 1912. (Ottawa City Archives, CA7633) Figure 1 (right). Chateau Frontenac Hotel, Quebec City, 1892-93; Bruce Price, architect. (CP Corporate Archives, A-4989) TX ~h the construction of the Chateau Frontenac Hotel in 1892-93 on the heights of r r Quebec City (figure 1), American architect Bruce Price (1845-1903) introduced the chateau style to Canada. Built for the Canadian Pacific Railway, the monumental hotel estab­ lished a precedent for a series of distinctive railway hotels across the country that served to as­ sociate the style with nationalist sentiment well into the 20th century.1 The prolonged life of the chateau style was not sustained by the CPR, however; the company completed its last chateauesque hotel in 1908, just as the mode was being embraced by the CPR's chief com­ petitor, the Grand Trunk Railway. How the chateau style came to be adopted by the GTR, and how it was utilized in three major hotels- the Chateau Laurier Hotel in Ottawa, the Fort Garry Hotel in Winnipeg, and the Macdonald Hotel in Edmonton -was closely related to the background and rise to prominence of the architects, Montreal natives George Allan Ross (1879-1946) and David Huron MacFarlane (1875-1950). According to Lovell's Montreal City Directory, 1900-01, George Ross2 worked as a draughtsman in the Montreal offices of the GTR, which was probably his first training in ar­ chitecture, and possibly a consideration when his firm later obtained the contracts for the GTR hotels.

  • Renewable Energy Initiatives at Canadian Sport Stadiums: a Content Analysis of Web-Site Communications
    Sustainability 2013, 5, 5119-5134; doi:10.3390/su5125119 OPEN ACCESS sustainability ISSN 2071-1050 www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability Article Renewable Energy Initiatives at Canadian Sport Stadiums: A Content Analysis of Web-Site Communications Chris Chard * and Cheryl Mallen Department of Sport Management, Brock University, 500 Glenridge Avenue, St. Catharines, ON L2S 3A1, Canada; E-Mail: [email protected] * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-905-688-5550 (ext. 5875); Fax: +1-905-688-4505. Received: 18 July 2013; in revised form: 12 November 2013 / Accepted: 14 November 2013 / Published: 29 November 2013 Abstract: Researchers have positioned renewable energy as sustainable and able to mitigate environmental issues associated with fossil fuels. Further, sustainable initiatives have been offered as a point of differentiation for brands. In order to reap the benefits of such differentiation, managers must communicate the initiatives to relevant stakeholders. The research question guiding the current investigation thus was: What is the communication by Canadian sport stadium operators to calls for sustainable initiatives, specifically in the area of renewable energy? The examination included the 15 sport stadiums that hosted a professional team in Canada and their web-based stadium communications on renewable energy (SCORE). Understandings and competencies in renewable energy are proposed as a new function of sport stadium management; communication of these competencies is seen as a key point of differentiation and best practice. Keywords: renewable energy; sustainability; communications; sport; Canada 1. Introduction The world economy is dependent upon energy from fossil fuel sources to meet its needs, and ensuring a stable source of energy is a growing concern.
