These initiatives supported by the PWFEDF will be deployed in Manitoba\u2019s bilingual municipalities and will help strengthen the partnership we are building on a daily basis with the Official Language Minority Communities (OLMCs). Each of these innovative projects will contribute to the development and vitality of our province\u2019s OLMCs.<\/p>\n<p>We also congratulate the Economic Development Council for Manitoba Bilingual Municipalities (CDEM) for its leadership in the field within the framework of the PWFEDF. A subsidiary of the AMBM Group, CDEM is one of four Francophone Economic Development Organizations (FEDOs) in Western Canada mandated by Western Economic Diversification (WD) to coordinate the PWFEDF across Western Canada.<\/p>\n<p>As reflected in our Economic Recovery Strategy 2021-2024, community economic development is a top priority for Manitoba\u2019s bilingual municipalities.<\/p>\n<p>In the coming years, we hope to see federal-municipal partnerships grow. We look forward to a massive reinvestment in community economic development within our bilingual communities to build the capacity of organizations, businesses, developers and economic teams within our municipalities themselves.<\/p>\n<p>The AMBM is the voice of bilingual municipal leadership in the province of Manitoba. It represents 15 local governments committed to providing services to their citizens in both official languages.<\/p>\n<p>Manitoba&#8217;s bilingual municipal leadership is also at the helm of the AMBM Group, a consortium of three complementary organizations: the AMBM, the Economic Development Council for Manitoba Bilingual Municipalities (CDEM), and Eco-West Canada (EWC) which has specialized in the green economy since 2008. These three complementary organizations actively contribute to the development, vitality and sustainability of the province\u2019s Official Language Minority Communities (OLMCs), including the French-speaking M\u00e9tis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Information:<\/strong> Justin Johnson, Chief Executive Officer, 204-289-4077, info@ambm.ca.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AMBM
