Riding Mountain MLA Greg Nesbitt would like to see a special license plate created that would allow Manitobans to celebrate their provincial parks while also raising funds to revitalize natural spaces in Manitoba
Nesbitt's bill would create a special Manitoba Parks license plate, with proceeds from their sale going into the Provincial Parks Endowment Fund.
The fund, which was created in 2021, generates $1 million annually for projects that improve trails, make beaches more accessible, build new playgrounds, restore habitats, protect cultural sites, and invest in other critical park infrastructure to enrich visitor experiences.
The endowment fund was created to support Manitobans wanting to give back to provincial parks through philanthropic donations and legacy gifts.
