  • Manitoba's Top Employers
    TOP EMPLOYERS COMPETITION ABOUT MORE THAN JUST NUMBERS BY GEOFF KIRBYSON Your dream employer might be Google or Facebook, but the researchers behind the Manitoba’s Top Employers project hope job-seekers will wake up to what really makes a company a great place to work. As part of the Toronto-based Canada’s Top 100 Employers competition, the research team aims to increase the literacy of the national workforce, particularly millennials who tend to get caught up in the hype surrounding high-profile companies. Likes, views and retweets are fine in the moment, but they’re worth nothing when it comes to your future, they say. “We still write about great employers with defined benefit pension plans,” says Tony Meehan, Publisher at Mediacorp Canada Inc., which manages the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project. “People don’t realize that can be the difference between a happy retirement or no retirement at all. As you get older, vacation time makes a big difference (in where you want to work). We still see employers offering two weeks to start and three weeks after five years. We like to publish what the MANITOBA’S very best are doing,” he says. Mediacorp has been ranking Canadian employers of all kinds for 19 years and Meehan’s team of editors doesn’t get tired of scouring the country looking for employers with interesting TOP EMPLOYERS stories of doing things differently in their industry WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 2018 or region. “Each year, employers bare their souls to us. We have 400 data points that each of them shares with us, including benefits like maternity leave, top vacation allowance, training and a host of other factors,” he says.

  • February 28Th, 2021 the Honourable Brian Pallister Premier of Manitoba
    February 28th, 2021 The Honourable Brian Pallister Premier of Manitoba Room 204 Legislative Building 450 Broadway, Winnipeg, MB R3C 0V8 Dear Premier Pallister, In January, 2021, I wrote to you encouraging the Province of Manitoba to ensure the full participation of the Manitoba Metis Federation in Manitoba’s vaccine planning and distribution. I was hopeful, after conversations with Ministers Stefanson and Clarke, that progress was being made. While I understand that some meetings have taken place, it is unfortunate that significant issues appear to remain with regards to the vaccine distribution process in Manitoba – notably the issue of equal access for all Indigenous populations. I read with great concern the CBC Manitoba article of February 24th, 2021 that outlined that Métis and Inuit citizens will not be prioritized to receive COVID-19 vaccines. The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) states that “adults living in Indigenous communities, which include First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities, where infection can have disproportionate consequences such as those living in remote or isolated areas where access to health care may be limited, should be prioritized to receive initial doses of COVID-19 vaccines.” It is well established that Indigenous peoples disproportionately face poorer health outcomes, which includes Métis and Inuit, making them more vulnerable to COVID-19, which is why NACI made this recommendation. The rapid rise in cases in First Nations communities has already shown the need to prioritize vaccinations and we can see that working as the number of new cases continue to decline. This underscores the importance of tracking and sharing data for all Indigenous populations.
