Manitoba Chambers Seek Energy Plan 03 April 06

Manitoba Chamber of Commerce logoThe Manitoba Chambers of Commerce (MCC) are calling for a public dialogue and planning process in 2006 & 2007 to arrive at an energy plan for Manitoba.

As part of the Energy Plan resolution passed at the MCC's 75th Annual General Meeting (AGM) held March 2006, one of the proposed energy plan's primary objectives would be to "define environmental protection and conservation of our natural ecosystems as primary considerations in terms of energy use in Manitoba."

The MCC is the umbrella organization for Manitoba's Chamber movement. As Manitoba's largest business lobby, the MCC represents 74 communities and over 10,000 businesses across Manitoba through direct corporate membership and local chambers.

The focus of the MCC's lobbying mandate is set each year at the AGM and is based on the resolutions that are passed. 20 resolutions, including An Energy Plan for Manitoba were passed at the 2006 AGM.
