Guidelines for Federal Policy Priorities in Urban Areas

Abstract

This report presents a number of guidelines and principles that could serve as a basis for reviewing federal policy priorities in urban areas with a particular focus on Winnipeg. It combines research undertaken during past months and the views expressed at a roundtable on federal policy priorities in the Winnipeg area hosted by the Institute of Urban Studies of the University of Winnipeg. Western Economic Diversification Canada has commissioned this report as a way to promote dialogue on federal urban policy and more specifically, its future focus in Winnipeg.
