The Lake Winnipeg Basin Summit, held in November and December 2010, brought together approximately 150 stakeholders to address water quality and nutrient loading in the Lake Winnipeg Basin. Using a 'back-casting' approach, participants developed a vision for a sustainable development strategy that integrates environmental, economic, and social objectives. The report concludes that Manitoba, as the downstream jurisdiction and principal beneficiary, should lead the implementation of this comprehensive and adaptive management project.
