A new $10-million economic development fund aimed at improving access to capital for the Manitoba Métis Community was announced today by Premier Greg Selinger and Manitoba Métis Federation (MMF) President David Chartrand at the 2010 MMF Annual General Assembly.
"Métis entrepreneurs and businesses have always been major contributors to Manitoba's economic success," said Selinger. "This fund is designed to ensure new and growing Métis enterprises have access to the equity they need to continue that success in the 21st century.
