We are located in Winnipeg, Manitoba and represent workers in the Telecommunications, Alarm, Call Centre and Lotteries industries. We currently represent approximately 900 members, who work for MTS Allstream, AAA Alarms, ADT Alarms, ProTELEC Alarms/Servo Electronics, TigerTel Communications and Manitoba Lotteries.
Our members have been working hard looking after Manitoba’s telephone needs since 1904, and with technology changes they now install and repair a multitude of services including High Speed Internet, TV, and Wireless. Other members are hard at work supplying homes and business’s with alarm and security needs as well as handling important after hours emergency calls through call centres. Our members at Manitoba Lotteries are working hard to install and maintain slot machines and VLT's in Manitoba's casino's and Bar's.
I appreciate how sincere the staff is, I had the pleasure of volunteering there and was very impressed by the Manager in the way she treated her staff and the customers, it is easy to tell that she is very dedicated and passionate about her job and her people.Read more
Since 1994, LITE has supported jobs in Winnipeg's inner city. As a Public Foundation, we raise money from generous Winnipeggers and spend it in ways that promote jobs and long-term development in the community.Why? Take a walk through many of our inner city neighbourhoods and you'll see a mix of situations. Bright and tidy efforts at community renewal and sturdy, long-time businesses exist side by side with some pretty big problems. You'll see empty buildings, vandalism, homelessness and racism to name a few. Tragically, there is a legacy of social decline in the inner city. It's evident to the casual observer as well as in income and employment statistics, which show growing numbers of people living in poverty and depending on social assistance.
The North End Community Renewal Corporation (NECRC) was founded in 1998 by a coalition of Winnipeg organizations who were concerned about some of the trends in the north end of Winnipeg and who were aware of the good results that community development corporations in other parts of North American were achieving in revitalizing inner city communities. The NECRC was established to serve the community within the geographic area north of the CP tracks, south of Carruthers Ave., east of McPhillips Street and west of the Red River.The mandate of the corporation is to promote the social, economic and cultural renewal of the north end of Winnipeg. It does this by improving the quality and accessibility of housing, creating jobs, upgrading commercial and industrial areas, implementing employment development programs, improving the overall image of the community, and reducing crime in the community. The corporation provides co-ordination activities and a strategic focus for many of the community improvement activities taking place in the north end.NECRC is committed to the social, economic and cultural renewal of the North End of Winnipeg.NECRC defines its development goals through annual consultations and ongoing networking with North End residents and businesses
