New Flyer unveils Winnipeg facility for all-Canadian-built electric transit buses

For the first time in 15 years, a fully Canadian-built transit bus has rolled off an assembly line, marking a major milestone, officials said Tuesday at an unveiling ceremony in Winnipeg. "This project is about putting a made-in-Canada stamp on the low-carbon economy," Premier Wab Kinew said at New Flyer's newly expanded facility. "By bringing full bus manufacturing back to Winnipeg, this facility strengthens our domestic supply chain, creates good jobs and reinforces Manitoba’s position at the cutting edge of zero-emission transportation technology."
