Manitoba Public Insurance reports 46 million net income
MPI reports a 46 million net income for the year ending February 28, 1997. Jim Kingdon notes the gain mitigates prior losses and stabilizes the program. Major factors include fewer traffic fatalities, better Personal Injury Protection performance, fraud recovery, and hailstorm costs covered by reinsurance. Proceeds fund rate stabilization reserves to shield customers from future rate spikes.
