I believe it fits entirely into our mission "to make cycling in Winnipeg a safe, enjoyable, accessible and convenient transportation choice year-round"; we are all organizations aiming to provide people with sustainable, healthy, and varied transportation options that minimize our reliance on carbon energy. I believe it is our organizational role to lobby to government for anything within this realm.

This is all very nice and green for sure and many of us as
individuals would be on side. But I don't see that it aligns all
that well with the BWin core mission (what we're here for) or core
competencies (the things we're really good at). <br>
If this money were withdrawn from transit would it be available
for cycling support or would it be a precedent for reducing support
for cycling too? I have no idea. But we really should have some
idea if we are to wade in on this issue. <br>
We would also have to be careful how much group energy we want
allocate to this campaign.<br>
That said, I can see a simple post on the website or a comment
on Facebook urging people to look at the Functional Transit website
and consider the issue as a move back towards private automobiles
and away from public transit, cycling and active transit in
general. Can we spin that to focus on our priorities in a
compelling way?<br>

<div>HI Everyone,<br>
<br>
</div>
I hope your summers have been going well. Sorry for the cross
posting, but I thought it made sense for this issue.
<div><br>
As you may know, the provincial government is planning to end
legislation guaranteeing provincial funding for municipal
transit agencies in Manitoba. Essentially, the current
legislation guarantees that the province will match municipal
funding for any subsidy of transit services (operating
expenses - revenue). This would obviously cause problems for
the city as they would have to choose to either reduce their
subsidy, raise taxes to cover the difference or shift funding
from other projects/priorities to make up the difference.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div><a href="http://functionaltransit.com/" target="_blank">Functional Transit</a>, which lobbies
for improved transit service and changes to the way that the
transit service is run, has put together a letter writing
campaign and is organizing like minded groups to help push for
the maintenance of the existing agreement. I'm taking part in
a meeting this Thursday, August 17th to discuss the strategy.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I'm looking for advice/direction on three items:<br>
</div>
<div><br>
1) Should we use our resources (Facebook, Newsletter) to
promote the letter writing campaign and subsequent planning? I
certainly think we should.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>2) I'd also like to join with them (and other like-minded
organizations) to develop a strategy around carbon pricing and
planning on what to do with the revenues generated from any
carbon tax, with an emphasis on dedicating monies raised to
transit and AT (both capital and operating) Ultimately, I
think it probably makes sense to push towards partnering with
the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mbcarbonpricing/" target="_blank">Manitoba Carbon Pricing Coalition</a>
on this, but I figure it's worth starting with Functional
Transit to try and develop some common goals before advancing
to the bigger group.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>3) From above, you can see that I think it makes sense for
us to get involved in the Manitoba Carbon Pricing Coalition.
What do others think, should I start the process?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>In terms of the money that would be raised from the carbon
tax, it`s huge. Our provincial government's decision to stay
out of the pan-Canadian carbon pricing policy is currently
holding up $66 million over 5 years, with a very serious
threat for that money to be shifted into a general fund
available to all provinces. But even that is small potatoes
compared with the money that would be generated by a carbon
tax. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Here is a partial list of expected carbon tax revenues in
Manitoba. It leaves out off-road transportation (think
agriculture, mining, forestry) as well as other agricultural
emissions (mainly emitted through the use of fertilizer,
livestock and manure management) which may end up getting
exempted or at least dedicated back to their respective
sectors.<br>

Unlike the $66 million, the Federal Government has promised
that any money raised by the carbon tax will stay in the
province it was raised in. The catch is that unless the
province joins in on the Pan-Canadian pricing policy, the
Federal government will decide how it is spent, not the
provincial government. That may be a good thing or a bad
thing.<br>
