  • Congratulations from Greg Selinger to the CCRE

    Greg Selinger


    On behalf of the government of Manitoba, I would like to congratulate the Canadian Centre for Refugee Employment (CCRE) on its contribution to the economic integration of refugees in the province of Manitoba.

    Immigration has been identified for a long time as a major element in Manitoba’s ongoing economic development, and today our province is recognized as a leader in the field thanks to its innovative settlement and integration programs for newcomers.

    CCRE’s mentorship program encourages refugees to build on their existing skills in order to find work based on their own abilities. The support offered by CCRE aims to help refugee integrate the workforce, and finding a job is certainly a key to their success.

    Once again, my congratulations to the Canadian Centre for Refugee Employment for its contribution!


    Greg Selinger, 

    Premier of Manitoba

    and Minister responsible for Francophone Affairs
