All staff, students, faculty and alumni are invited to attend a public town hall with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the Investors Group Athletic Centre (IGAC) on Wednesday, January 31 at 7 p.m.
This Winnipeg stop is one of a number of town hall events happening in communities across Canada in the coming months. The event is an opportunity for the Prime Minister to hear from Canadians about issues that matter, including how to create growth that works for everyone, prepare for the jobs of the future, and build a stronger more resilient middle class.
While the event will take place in IGAC, the entrance and coat check can only be accessed via the Max Bell Centre's southeast entrance at 109 Sidney Smith Street. Doors open 5 p.m., while the event begins at 7 p.m.
Please note that while an RSVP is required<http://tduguid.liberal.ca/events/>, it does not guarantee access to the event. Admission to the event will be on a first come, first served basis.
It is important to know that large bags and coats/jackets won't be permitted inside the venue. There will be a mandatory coat check on site.

Dear University of Manitoba community members,
In 2016, we asked all staff, faculty and students to share your insights into travel to our campuses through a transportation survey. We received over 4,000 responses, and your feedback assisted us to develop the University's first Sustainable Transportation Strategy in 2017. Now, we invite you to participate in a new survey.
Please take five to 10 minutes to complete the 2018 Campus Commute Survey<http://umanitoba.ca/campuscommute?utm_source=vpa-email&utm_medium=email&utm…>, administered by Green Action Centre in partnership with the U of M's Office of Sustainability.
The results of this survey will continue to inform our strategic planning around infrastructure, education and peer-based programs in support of health and wellness, safety and sustainability goals.
Participants who complete the survey before it closes on February 9 will have the opportunity to be entered into a draw to win an iPad Mini 4, $500 of groceries or a bicycle.
If you have any questions about the survey, please contact the Office of Sustainability by email at: sustainability(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:sustainability@umanitoba.ca>
Sincerely,
Lynn Zapshala-Kelln CPA CGA
Vice-President (Administration)
