| New Opportunities for Engagement with the City of Winnipeg Winnipeg Canoe Club Golf Course SurveyWinnipeggers are being asked to help reimagine the future of the Winnipeg Canoe Club Golf Course. In April 2019, the current lease of the course to a private operator will expire. The City of Winnipeg is seeking feedback from the public to find out how the space is currently used, and whether or not the public supports another golf course lease, or the creation of a mixed-use recreational space that includes additional services. Winnipeggers are encouraged to provide input through an online survey. The survey will be open until September 1, 2017. Later this year, citizens will be encouraged to attend a public workshop to review and refine several different recreational concepts.
