St. Boniface Hospital Research hosted tours of the Centre for the 11th annual federal ministers’ manager’s conference – the first time the conference has been held in Winnipeg. The goal of the conference is to bring together managers working for federal ministries to raise awareness of government’s impact on the community.
The goal of the tour (one of several in the city) is to give federal department managers an opportunity to see the many projects and institutions that are supported by Federal funding. Their tour also included: l’Université de Saint-Boniface, the Economic Development Council for Manitoba’s Bilingual Communities, Entreprises Riel, the Bilingual Services Center and a stop at the Basilica for a brief historical presentation on the francophone presence.
