Coalition of Manitoba businesses look for actions against retail theft
January 3, 2020WINNIPEG — A coalition of Manitoba business associations will be meeting in the New Year for a roundtable discussion to find tangible actions that will address retail theft and safety, after months of violent crimes and retail thefts in the province.
Over the past few days, invitations from the Retail Council of Canada were sent out to government, businesses, law enforcement groups, for the Manitoba Retail Crime Round Table to be held at the end of Jan. 2020.
“Our objective is to help Manitoba businesses better address retail crime, as a means to ensure that all Manitobans feel safe shopping and working in retail and service businesses across the province,” John Graham, the director of government prairie relations for the RCC, told CTV News in an email.
