Morris is positioned within a cost-competitive location in the centre of Canada, just under a half hour drive away from the international border. With recent investments coming from both the public and private sector, the Municipality and surrounding area is now equipped to deliver fast and reliable fibre internet speeds, capable of supporting logistics infrastructure to expedite trade.
Clean Technology & Advanced Manufacturing
Our strategic geographic location is near one of the busiest commercial border crossing between Canada
and the U.S. west of Windsor, creating a strong value proposition for foreign direct investments, particularly in clean technology and electric vehicle opportunities. Along with the availability of hydropower, wind and
solar energy, Manitoba has access to nickel, lithium, cesium, and silica sand markets that are needed to produce specialized batteries and equipment to drive today’s economic and environmental innovation.
Access to Young Talent
As the post-COVID economy becomes more digital, geography and location constraints will reduce. With
relatively close proximity to large urban centres such as Winnipeg and an influx in urban dwellers looking
to move to more affordable and smaller communities, Morris is in a position to become a destination for
individuals and families looking to experience a small town atmosphere with fast internet connection while remaining close to major urban areas.
