About the Initiative
Economic Development Winnipeg’s business development team, YES! Winnipeg, is now working with local companies and partners such as the Ukrainian Canadian Congress-Manitoba Provincial Council, The Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce and the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce to support Ukrainians considering a move to Winnipeg and Manitoba.
“Our YES! Winnipeg talent team is leveraging its existing job portal to connect Ukrainians looking for temporary or permanent jobs with employers in Manitoba. Our network of connections among our business community is vast and diverse. We’re using that network to help people find safety and financial security here in our province.”
-Dayna Spiring, President & CEO, Economic Development Winnipeg

Are you a Manitoba business willing to hire Ukrainian national job seekers on a temporary or permanent basis? Through the YES! Winnipeg Job Connections Portal, employers can connect with job seekers currently in Ukraine looking for safety and security.
Manitoba is home to the largest Ukrainian-Canadian community in Canada, so it’s a natural fit for Ukrainian nationals and their immediate family members of any nationality to find refuge here in this time of turmoil.
