Our Mission
Welcome to the MB Coalition website, our goal is to unify the industry within Manitoba and work together for a common goal. Through advocacy, public awareness and education we will create a society that values fitness as an essential part of our community. Working with FIC - Fitness industry council of Canada and industry leaders across Canada we will continue to work for each member of our community, big and small, independent and corporate.
Fitness facilities have always had high standards of cleanliness and are operated in a capacity that allows owners to control all aspects of the clients experience. We will work with a willing provincial government to overcome the challenges ahead. Both parties need to come together and be willing and open minded. Fitness centres must remain open, this is the socially and fiscally responsible "Fitness is Essential, Fitness is Healcare".
