Manitoba, B.C. reach deal to boost interprovincial trade, Kinew says
- Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew revealed on Friday that the province is nearing an agreement with British Columbia to establish a memorandum of understanding aimed at lowering trade barriers.
- This agreement follows a similar deal Manitoba signed with Ontario in May, aiming to expand access to major Canadian markets and facilitate freer trade.
- Kinew also promoted Manitoba as a key route for a northern trade corridor involving an all-season road, possible pipeline, hydroelectric transmission, and a new or expanded Hudson Bay port.
- He emphasized the importance of carefully addressing important issues while also recognizing the pressing need to move forward with nation-building initiatives and work closely with Alberta and Saskatchewan.
- The trade corridor could increase export capacity, but environmental concerns and opposition to pipeline development around the protected Hudson Bay coast may affect implementation.
