- Manitoba’s real GDP growth will slow down to an annual pace of around 2 per cent over 2016–35 mainly because of an aging population.
- The share of people aged 65 and over will increase by more than five percentage points over the next two decades.
- The number of international immigrants to Manitoba will more than offset the outflow of interprovincial migrants over the long term, and this will leave the housing sector in better shape compared with most other provinces.
- The outcome of the free trade negotiations with Europe and country-of-origin labelling for meat sold in the U.S. will have a major impact on Manitoba’s agriculture sector over the long term.
