Key priorities of the 2019 preliminary budgets include investments in transit, roads, innovation, and combined sewer overflow mitigation, maintaining front line services, reducing the water and sewer dividend rate while keeping taxes and fees affordable for Winnipeggers. At the start of this year’s budget process, we were facing a deficit of almost $86 million in our tax-supported operating budget. In the short time since the municipal election in October, we have worked with residents, stakeholder groups, and members of our new Council to present for Council’s consideration preliminary capital and operating budgets that are balanced from a fiscal and city building perspective. Balancing this year’s budgets required many difficult choices and decisions. Compounding the challenge this year was the ongoing uncertainty regarding the provincial government’s funding support to the City for 2019 and beyond as well as provincial funding commitments from prior fiscal years that remain outstanding. We fully support the provincial government’s efforts to eliminate its budget deficit, but we do not believe that this objective should be achieved on the backs of Winnipeg property taxpayers. Therefore, we will continue to seek clarity from the provincial government on its funding intentions for Winnipeg for prior years, the current year, and future fiscal years. The funding clarity we seek for future fiscal years is no different than the advanced funding notice that the provincial government provides school divisions or receives from the federal government prior to tabling the annual provincial budget. Notwithstanding these significant challenges, we believe that the 2019 preliminary budgets present a balanced and responsible blueprint, a plan that keeps property taxes affordable while maintaining and investing in key infrastructure, services, and technology that are important to Winnipeggers

Since 1969, the IUS has been both an academic and an applied research centre, committed to examining urban development issues in a broad, non-partisan manner. The Institute examines inner city, environmental, Aboriginal and community development issues. In addition to its ongoing involvement in research, IUS brings in visiting scholars, hosts workshops, seminars and conferences, and acts in partnership with other organizations in the community to effect positive change. Introduction This study undertakes an analysis of demographic and housing market factors that may influence the need for incentives in the downtown Winnipeg housing market. This report informs CentreVenture’s proposed “10 Year Housing Evaluation” and helps to address the proposed question, “What price do new downtown housing projects need to achieve to encourage more people to move downtown?” To accomplish this, the following have been undertaken: 1. A Demographic Analysis of current downtown Winnipeg residents with a comparison to Winnipeg medians, 2. A Rental Market Analysis comparing downtown rates to Winnipeg averages, as well as changing rental rates in the downtown from Census data, 3.

  • 510 Main Street Winnipeg City Hall
    510 MAIN STREET WINNIPEG CITY HALL City of Winnipeg Historical Buildings Committee Researcher: M. Peterson April 2014 510 MAIN STREET – WINNIPEG CITY HALL Winnipeg’s first City Hall was officially opened in March 1876, the brick structure costing nearly $40,000 to complete (Plate 1), one of only a few substantial structures in the City that had incorporated two-and-a-half years earlier.1 But the structure had been built over a poorly filled Brown’s Creek. The fill could not hold the weight of the building and cracks began to appear shortly after it opened. An addition was completed in the winter of 1882-1883 but it too was poorly built. The entire structure had to be propped up because of these structural problems, ultimately being torn down in April 1883.2 The second City Hall, the famous “Gingerbread” building, was erected amid controversy between 1884 and 1886. Debate over location, construction materials, architect fees and other problems kept the building in the local papers throughout its construction. However, the completed structure was well-built and served the civic government and the citizens of Winnipeg for nearly 80 years (Plates 2 and 3).3 Three years later the City Market Building was completed to the west of City Hall adding a major retail element to the area (Plate 4). In 1913, a City of Winnipeg committee recommended replacing this City Hall, a competition was held and a winner from Regina, Saskatchewan, architects Clemesha and Portnall, was declared (Plate 5). But global economic downturn and the escalation of conflict leading to World War I halted any major construction plans and this new city hall building was never built.

  • Stu Davis: Canada's Cowboy Troubadour
    Stu Davis: Canada’s Cowboy Troubadour by Brock Silversides Stu Davis was an immense presence on Western Canada’s country music scene from the late 1930s to the late 1960s. His is a name no longer well-known, even though he was continually on the radio and television waves regionally and nationally for more than a quarter century. In addition, he released twenty-three singles, twenty albums, and published four folios of songs: a multi-layered creative output unmatched by most of his contemporaries. Born David Stewart, he was the youngest son of Alex Stewart and Magdelena Fawns. They had emigrated from Scotland to Saskatchewan in 1909, homesteading on Twp. 13, Range 15, west of the 2nd Meridian.1 This was in the middle of the great Regina Plain, near the town of Francis.

  • Winnipeg's Housing Crisis and The
    Class, Capitalism, and Construction: Winnipeg’s Housing Crisis and the Debate over Public Housing, 1934–1939 STEFAN EPP* The collapse of the construction industry during the 1930s resulted in a housing crisis of unprecedented proportions in cities throughout Canada. Winnipeg faced a particularly difficult situation. Beginning in 1934, the city undertook several endeavours to remedy the problem, all of which failed. While the shortcomings of federal housing programmes and reluctant federal and provincial governments were partly to blame for the failure of these local efforts, municipal debates on the subject of housing reveal that reform was also stalled by opposition from the local business elite, whose members disliked competition in the rental market. L’effondrement de l’industrie de la construction dans les anne´es 1930 a provoque´ une crise sans pre´ce´dent du logement dans les villes du Canada. La situation e´tait particulie`rement difficile a` Winnipeg. En 1934, la ville a commence´ a` prendre des mesures pour corriger le proble`me : toutes ont e´choue´. Si les faiblesses des pro- grammes fe´de´raux de logement et la re´ticence des gouvernements fe´de´ral et provin- cial ont contribue´ partiellement a` l’e´chec de ces efforts locaux, les de´bats municipaux sur la question du logement re´ve`lent que la re´forme s’est e´galement heurte´ea` l’opposition de l’e´lite locale du milieu des affaires, dont les membres n’aimaient pas la concurrence sur le marche´ locatif.
