TIAM calls on Ministers regarding wildfire communication and support

The wildfires that devastated the province of Manitoba this spring have had a profound impact on communities, landscapes and livelihoods. We stand in solidarity with those affected and recognize the urgent need for continued — and ongoing — support and recovery.

TIAM shared a letter with the Honourable Jamie Moses, Minister of Business, Mining, Trade and Job Creation, and the Honourable Nellie Kennedy, Minister of Sport, Culture, Heritage and Tourism.

In this correspondence, we’re:

  • showcasing challenges facing the Manitoba tourism industry and local operators,
  • requesting that the province recognize the important role of the tourism industry,
  • requesting they provide immediate and direct support to affected tourism operators, and
  • offering our ongoing support.
