BOMA advocacy

Advocating on matters that affect the stability and viability of commercial real estate.

BOMA Manitoba plays a key role in advancing advocacy issues on behalf of its members. The BOMA Board of Directors and its Government Affairs & Advocacy Committee are committed to protecting and furthering member interests on important policy issues, such as:

  • Energy pricing & supply
  • Building codes & standards
  • Environmental regulations
  • Equipment regulations
  • Impact fees
  • Property taxes
  • Building & occupancy permits
  • Security of people & property
  • Infrastructure spending

Governments have made it clear that they prefer organizations to address issues through a single representative voice.

BOMA believes in being proactive on issues that affect its membership, and working closely with federal, provincial, and municipal representatives to ensure that all legislative alternatives are fully explored.

BOMA is pleased to work alongside other industry groups on advocacy issues; these parties include (but are not limited to) the Winnipeg Construction Association, Sustainable Building Manitoba, the Manitoba Hotel Association, and the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce.
