Summary of Changes
At our initial meeting on April 7, 2022, coalition member Alex Buchner presented a summary of the changes that Bill 36 makes based on his analysis. This document presents that summary of changes and was updated based on feedback from other coalition members present at that meeting.

Amended Legislation
Bills that contain a lot of amendments to existing legislation are difficult to read. They contain a lot of section references that need to be looked up separately and then cross-referenced with the changes proposed in the Bill.
To make learning about this bill a little easier, coalition member Alex Buchner created amended versions of The Manitoba Hydro Act and The Public Utilities Board Act using the track changes function in Microsoft Word. This makes it a little easier to see what this legislation actually does. If you want to dive in deep, you may find these documents helpful.
