Paddle Manitoba is committed to advocating for the protection and preservation of waterways and the advancement of recreational and wilderness paddling. We seek to build partnerships with both government and non-government agencies while working toward shared goals. We encourage you to add your own voice too. Together, we can ensure paddlers are heard.
