CAMRT-MB Advocacy

Advocacy for the MRT profession at the provincial level, with government and other stakeholders, is an important function of a provincial association. CAMRT-MB endeavors to identify and address advocacy needs related to the most pressing issues for the MRT profession in Manitoba. Identification of advocacy priorities will be an important and ongoing function of the CAMRT-MB Advisory Council, but we also invite individual members to contact CAMRT-MB to express their views and priorities.

MRT Week 2024

MRT week will be taking place November 3-9, 2024.  CAMRT-MB has submitted a proclamation request to the Manitoba Government to officially proclaim MRT week as well as a request to the City of Winnipeg to light up the Winnipeg Sign and Esplanade Riel in the CAMRT colors.  Thank you to our volunteer members who took the time to submit proclamation requests to local towns, cities and municipalities in the province!

Thank you to the City of Winnipeg who will be lighting up the WINNIPEG sign and Esplanade Riel on November 8 in recognition of MRT week!

The Province of Manitoba has also proclaimed MRT Week!  View the proclamation and accompanying letter here.
