Manitoba Gains Meager Rail Spend Benefits in Ten Years

A provincial interdepartmental study tabled in the Legislature shows Manitoba will get less than five percent of all railway construction benefits despite 14.7 percent of Western Canada’s population and 16.3 percent of grain production. Total rail capital expenditures for the decade total about $11.849 billion, with $7.723 billion for western rail construction and only $963 million (4.7 percent) in Manitoba. Manitoba’s labor income rises by roughly $293.4 million and GDP by about $399.5 million over ten years, as western Canada gains $6.6768 billion and eastern Canada $1.6739 billion.

Manitoba study says Crow Rate removal won’t boost livestock

It notes falling beef consumption, reduced cattle prices, and limited domestic markets, with eastern Canada gains offset by federal programs and transport costs.
