Water Management Strategy

Engagement is closed.

Water is a key resource for Manitoba’s people, environment and economy. We all must work collaboratively to ensure water is sustainably managed now and in the future, while considering the impacts of a changing climate and growing economic and social needs. Although much work has been done to build a strong foundation for water management in the province, Manitoba now needs a comprehensive provincial water management strategy that sets out the path forward outlining our goals and how we will meet them.

The Expert Advisory Council, established under the Climate and Green Plan Act, have been asked to provide advice and recommendations to government on the scope and elements of a modernized, coordinated provincial water management strategy for Manitoba.

A document was developed as a tool for stakeholder engagement, and is intended to provide an overview and background on water in Manitoba and to initiate discussion on proposed key issues, goals, principles, objectives and performance indicators for a provincial water management strategy.
