Welcome to Municipal and Northern Relations

Manitoba Municipal and Northern Relations works with municipalities, planning districts, and non-governmental organizations to build and maintain strong, healthy and well-managed communities across our province.

As part of this work, Municipal and Northern Relations delivers training, ongoing advice, technical analysis and funding related to:

• land management
• community revitalization
• infrastructure
• building the capacity of local governments to provide services

Municipal and Northern Relations promotes relationships and strategic partnerships between levels of government, as well as relationships with non-governmental organizations at all levels. We do this to support the well-being of our residents and communities through robust and effective policies and programs.

We also work directly with the City of Winnipeg, the Association of Manitoba Municipalities (AMM) and non-governmental organizations to establish new funding models, update existing models and streamline the funding application process.

We believe these relationships are essential to achieving sustainable communities and municipalities for a stronger Manitoba.
