The City of Thompson will be supporting the lobbying efforts to incorporate Snopass with snowmobile registration.

City Council voted in favour of the resolution at Monday’s City Hall meeting, citing that incorporating the Snopass will help fund the maintenance of the designated trails, increase public safety, and increase tourism throughout the province.

Currently, there are over 35 thousand registered snowmobiles in the province, but there only around 19 thousand Snopass holders in Manitoba.
