Ask any new resident to describe why they chose Brandon and you will hear these terms used frequently: opportunity, quality of life, value, competitive advantage, friendly and diverse.

Brandon can be categorized as a typical service centre for a large agricultural region. Brandon acts as the central trading centre for the entire western Manitoba region encompassing 38,850 sq km and a population of 180,000. The commuting pattern extends approximately 64 km and includes 80,000 people. Large numbers of employees choose to live in smaller centres or in a rural setting and elect to commute to work.

CFB Shilo is located approximately 30 km from Brandon. It is a ground, artillery and mechanized troop training base with approximately 657 military personnel, 170 civilian employees and 1800 dependents.

Liberal Party of Manitoba
Manitoba Liberals know that the future of this province depends on attracting and retaining young people. Young people want better jobs and more opportunities. They need a government that looks to their future, and the future of this province.To create a climate of opportunity foryoung people, we will cut provincial income tax rates, beginning with young people, so Manitobans pay no more than the average of BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario.

NDP of Manitoba
Manitoba is poised to seize the opportunities of a new millennium. We are fortunate to live in a province with great natural beauty, a strong economy, a vibrant culture and a skilled and dedicated workforce. Today we can look ahead with confidence, knowing that the government and people of Manitoba are working together to build an even better future for our young people. We know that this century will be Manitoba's century. Our purpose as a movement is to foster social change toward a more cooperative society. Our purpose as a political party is to develop a public mandate for that social change through giving individuals greater control in the economy, their workplace, and their community.

PC Party of Manitoba

The Manitoba Greens wear two hats. We are the Manitoba chapter of the Green Party of Canada, a federally registered political party. As the Green Party of Manitoba, we are also a provincially registered political party. The Green Party of Canada was established in 1983. In 1996, a group of Manitobans formed a provincial unit of the Green Party of Canada (officially "The Green Party of Canada in Manitoba").
