If this Report is received by anyone other than Manitoba, the recipient is placed on notice that the attached Report has been prepared solely for Manitoba for its own internal use and this Report and its contents may not be shared with or disclosed to anyone by the recipient without the express written consent of KPMG and Manitoba. KPMG does not accept any liability or responsibility to any third party who may use or place reliance on our Report. Our scope was limited to a review and observations over a relatively short timeframe. The intention of the Report is to develop business cases for select areas of opportunity. The procedures we performed were limited in nature and extent, and those procedures will not necessarily disclose all matters about departmental functions, policies and operations, or reveal errors in the underlying information. Our procedures consisted of inquiry, observation, comparison and analysis of Manitoba-provided information. In addition, we considered leading practices. Readers are cautioned that the potential cost improvements outlined in this Report are order of magnitude estimates only. Actual results achieved as a result of implementing opportunities are dependent upon Manitoba and department actions and variations may be material.

  • END of an ERA Roger Gibbins Retires After 14 Years at the Helm of the Canada West Foundation
    WINDOW ON THE 2012 MAY WEST www.cwf.ca western canadian policy matters END OF AN ERA Roger Gibbins retires after 14 years at the helm of the Canada West Foundation > Unlocking Manitoba’s Transportation Gateway > Reflections on a Dynamic and Prosperous West > Natural Gas as a Transportation Fuel A Strong West in a Strong Canada The Canada West Foundation is the only think tank dedicated to being the objective voice for public policy issues of vital concern to western Canadians. Sometimes these issues are unique to the West, but more often they resonate right across Canada. We are resolutely nonpartisan. We let the research do the talking rather than rely on predetermined positions. Our goals are straightforward: better government policy; a prosperous West in a prosperous Canada; fair treatment of all regions in the federation; and a strong democracy based on open debate and meaningful citizen engagement. Over the past 40 years, our research and recommendations have advanced all four of these goals. We are a source of ideas and information. We are a facilitator of discussion and civic participation. We give the people of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba a voice. A voice for their aspirations, interests and concerns. As westerners, we understand the people and the places of the West. We know our history and how it influences our future. Whether it is the economy, energy, environment, education, healthcare, taxes, social services, urban issues, intergovernmental relations or any other policy area of importance to the West, we have researched it, commented on it, stimulated debate about it and recommended practical options for improving the policy response—all from a uniquely western point of view.

  • Assessing the Attractiveness of Centreport Canada- a Canadian Inland Port From
    Assessing the Attractiveness of CentrePort Canada- A Canadian Inland Port from Manufacturers’ Perspective by Jiayue Xu A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Supply Chain Management I.H. Asper School of Business University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2017 by Jiayue Xu Abstract The continuous growth of international trade and development of containerization bring about the emergence and development of inland ports- inland sites performing seaport functions that do not require waterways (also called dry ports). However, so far inland/dry port research has paid very limited attention to Canadian inland ports. CentrePort Canada, located in Winnipeg where manufacturing is the largest industry, is the first Canadian inland port with three transportation modes and foreign trade zone status and is endeavoring to attract more businesses especially in manufacturing. This thesis thus aims to investigate whether CentrePort Canada, especially the North part, is an attractive site for manufacturers to locate their businesses. Attractiveness is measured by matching CentrePort Canada features with the location factors considered by specific manufacturers. Eight case studies involving in-depth interviews are conducted to explore manufacturers’ perspectives on site selection factors and CentrePort Canada (North). Three groups of manufacturers are included: established companies located in CentrePort Canada South, new companies located in CentrePort Canada North, and established firms located elsewhere in Winnipeg. This thesis concludes that CentrePort Canada North is so far attractive to Winnipeg-based companies having plans to relocate within the city and outside manufacturers distributing to new markets.
