MBP has designed a series of policy positions that will help drive investment into Manitoba and ensure the economic health of one of our province’s most important sectors. Please click on the following links for further details on each policy position.

1. Provision of Public Goods

4. Manitoba Cattle Enhancement Council
5. Animal Health and Protection

We have also prepared a short questionnaire for each party’s leadership that will help them outline their policies in these key areas. Click here to read the Introduction and get the Questionnaire! On September 26th MBP will be posting on our website each party’s reply to the questionnaire.

If you have any questions with regard to any of the aforementioned, be sure to get a hold of us at the office at (204) 772-4542. We’re here for you!
