Construction activity in Manitoba is forecast to increase through 2035, with strong growth in non-residential projects such as engineering, industrial, commercial, and institutional buildings. Residential construction will see modest growth, supported mainly by renovations as new housing starts stabilize after an initial decline due to slower population growth. Employment in non-residential construction is expected to rise by 11% by 2035, while residential construction employment may contract slightly. The sector faces a potential labor shortfall due to retirements, but increased apprenticeship registrations and recruitment of underrepresented groups and immigrants could help meet demand. This outlook highlights both opportunities and challenges for Manitoba's construction workforce development.
