An interactive story map illustrating the locations of northern Manitoba economic areas and communities that are part of the Look North Initiative.

This interactive story map illustrates the locations of northern Manitoba economic areas and communities that are part of the Look North Initiative. Economic areas are based on groupings of the census subdivisions (CSD) in the northern Manitoba economic region.  Economic area boundaries were created using the 2016 CSD cartographic boundary file, provided by Statistics Canada.  Each economic area is named after the major centre within it and has a corresponding economic profile that is available as an online PDF document. Communities in the map include the cities, towns, First Nation communities, local government districts, rural municipalities, and Northern Affairs communities represented by each of the economic areas. Pop-ups include the following information: Economic Areas: Economic Area Name Hyperlink to the online Economic Profile of the area Communities: Community Name Community Website URL Community Profile URL, if available Name of the Economic Area that the community falls within Economic Profile URL
