Mayor Dennis Fenske has expressed interest in Hub Funding which would send more funds to the City of Thompson.

Fenske’s argument would qualify Thompson, Dauphin, Brandon and Steinbach for hub funding as he says that those cities support a region.

He said he has lobbied to the Association of Manitoba Municipalities which would then bring forward the idea to the Provincial Government.

If the proposal goes through, those four cities would receive additional funds for hub services.

The idea of hub funding is in the preliminary stages and would need to be looked at by the provincial government.
