We want to share an important update with you regarding the activation of RRC Polytech’s Shelter Site at the Notre Dame Campus. Yesterday evening, wildfire evacuees began arriving at our campus from across the province, seeking refuge and support during this difficult time.

Through the night, we welcomed over 120 people – many of whom have now been moved to other accommodations. We are now prepared to welcome more evacuees throughout day.

Thanks to the incredible efforts of staff from departments across the college, we were able to complete the final preparations and warmly welcome guests. From preparing meals and assembling hygiene kits to welcoming guests and providing essential information, our community came together quickly and compassionately to ensure evacuees felt welcome and supported upon arrival.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has contributed their time, energy, and care over the last few days to prepare for their arrival.

Please continue to check Staff and Student News for operational updates including spaces that will not be available or bookable while guests are staying with us. These spaces will be utilized for serving food and providing recreational activities and entertainment for families.

We also want to thank the community who has reached out to and offered to volunteer in a number of ways. We are establishing a volunteering system that will be shared soon.

We will continue to keep you informed via Staff and Student News as the situation evolves and will share ways you can help in the coming days.

Over the weekend, the Canadian Red Cross reached out to RRC Polytech to request our assistance to shelter wildfire evacuees.

We are preparing to support approximately 200 Manitobans by offering a shelter space at the Notre Dame Campus.

We are anticipating that supplies and cots will be delivered today to help set up a temporary shelter in the North Gym. The South Gym will also be used as a recreation space for evacuees. 

As part of this effort, the North Gym and Loft (including changing room facilities), and South Gym will be closed to students and staff until further notice. Otherwise, there will be no impact to day-to-day operations on campus.  

Making our spaces available is an important way we can support evacuees during this difficult time and welcome them to campus as they seek safety and comfort. The Canadian Red Cross will manage the shelter, which will operate 24/7 while evacuees are on site. RRC Polytech will assist the Red Cross as needed to ensure a safe and welcoming environment. 

This work is being led by Safety, Health and Security Services who have engaged a coordinated team of representatives from areas across the College and have set up an Emergency Operations Centre located at AB37. We are all working together to ensure evacuees are supported and have what they may need while staying with us.  

Later today, we may reach out to staff who are available to help with setting up the shelter alongside the Canadian Red Cross. We will keep you informed if assistance is needed. 

We continue to take direction from the Canadian Red Cross and at this time we will not be accepting clothing or other donations at this site. As we learn more and understand how we can best support the evacuees on campus, we will continue to keep you informed.  

RRC Polytech has always been here to support our community, and we appreciate your assistance and understanding as we work together to help those affected by the wildfires. 

We will continue to provide regular updates on the shelter site at NDC through rrc.ca/marcom and Staff and Student News to keep you informed. 

Thank you for your compassion and support, and for welcoming evacuees to the RRC Polytech community. 

Innovative conversion kit offers a cost-effective solution to adopt more environmentally friendly transportation for students across the province

Winnipeg, MB on Treaty No. 1 Territory and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis – Today, Manitoba’s first low carbon school bus successfully converted from diesel to electric power is rolling out of RRC Polytech’s Vehicle Technology and Energy Centre (VTEC)  – demonstrating the viability of a cost-effective unique process to electrify current fleets and reduce the environmental impact of using fossil fuels. 

“Our work on the electric school bus conversion kit is the latest example of how applied research collaborations with industry partners support market-driven innovation and product development,” said Fred Meier, President and CEO, RRC Polytech. “This project is an example of the applied research expertise and facilities RRC Polytech has developed over the last 20 years that contribute to advancing technologies to support Manitoba’s energy transition.”

Funded by the Government of Manitoba’s Conservation and Climate Fund and the Canadian Shield Foundation, the diesel to EV school bus conversion kit is the result of a collaborative project that brought together the experts at RRC Polytech’s VTEC, Noble Northern and Seven Oaks School Division. The conversion kit reduces greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions, cuts costs for schools and the government, and offers an affordable alternative to factory-built electric buses.

“Manitoba is committed to advancing clean transportation solutions that protect our environment while ensuring safe and sustainable mobility for students,” said the Honourable Mike Moyes, Minister of Environment and Climate Change. “We’re thrilled that the result of this collaboration – proof of concept for the conversion of diesel school buses to electric power – not only offers an alternative to importing costly technology, but the potential to stimulate our local economy through job creation and growth.” 

The project began in August 2023, when the Seven Oaks School Division provided a suitable bus for conversion and students from RRC Polytech’s Heavy Equipment Mechanic Program removed its diesel engine before transferring the bus to principal industry collaborator, Noble Northern. VTEC’s research team joined their experts on the groundwork for converting the bus, including the preliminary design for the electric drive system, which eventually led to the procurement of electric motors, batteries, controllers, inverters, and other essential accessories in the conversion kit. After the installation and commissioning phase, the newly converted electric school bus was returned to RRC Polytech for rigorous environmental performance evaluations within MotiveLab™ VTEC’s climatic chamber. 

“RRC Polytech’s VTEC is proudly regarded as a Canadian leader in EV technology. By seeking cost-effective methods to reduce emissions and source renewable energies for fuel for fleet vehicles like school buses, we are helping to build and maintain a sustainable future while training the workforce of tomorrow,” said Jojo Delos Reyes, Program Manager, Vehicle Technology and Energy Centre. “This project also allowed us to deepen our relationship with industry experts, Noble Northern and build on the knowledge that we acquired while working together converting the Arctic Tundra Buggy which will undoubtedly benefit our next partners and projects.” 

Even with labour costs considered, retrofitting an existing diesel bus using the conversion kit saves over $100,000 on the price of purchasing a new factory-built Type C electric school bus, freeing up valuable budget for administrators to reinvest directly into the classroom while still significantly reducing their carbon footprint. The benefits of converting just one bus also include saving up to $11,000 in fuel costs and reducing 21.6 tonnes of CO2 emissions per school year (approximately 39 weeks). Other advantages of switching to this technology include lower maintenance costs and elimination of air and noise pollution.

The unveiling event featured remarks from Fred Meier, Jojo Delos Reyes, Tye Noble, President, Noble Northern, Logan Oxenham, MLA for Kirkfield Park, and the Right Honourable Edward Schreyer, the former Governor General of Canada, former Premier of Manitoba, and founder of the Canadian Shield Foundation. Guests from industry, community, government, and across our campuses even hopped aboard for a quick ride.  

“This successful collaboration has proven what is possible – now we’re ready to literally drive it forward,” said Delos Reyes. “Our next steps are to explore commercialization and scaling possibilities of the conversion process and to connect with partners who are interested and motivated to adopt this new technology.”

Protein Industries Canada (PIC) is investing $1.2 million in a collaborative applied research project to explore agri-food opportunities and address barriers to food security in rural and remote communities in Manitoba.

The $1.6 million project in total will feature the professional staff and students from RRC Polytech’s Prairie Research Kitchen (PRK) and the College of Rehabilitation Sciences at the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Manitoba (UM) working together with local communities across the province to address food insecurity and Indigenous food sovereignty barriers related to First Nations and Red River Métis food production and distribution systems. 

“On behalf of the Manitoba Métis Federation – National Government of the Red River Métis, I am pleased today to be announcing a new partnership as part of a Consortium, together with Red River College Polytechnic, the University of Manitoba, and enabled by the commitment and funding provided through Protein Industries Canada,” said David Beaudin, Minister of Agriculture and Associate Minister of Provincial Education for the MMF in a news release. “This project will help facilitate the reimagining of Red River Métis food systems and will unlock new opportunities to better connect with our foods across the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. I look forward to seeing the project build value through capacity and skills development, all while enabling greater local access to nutritious food options.” 

Food security exists when all people, at all times, have access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food.  It’s not just about having enough food –  it also means having the ability to access it and use it in a way that supports a healthy and active life.  

Fresh, nutrient-dense groceries often come with a hefty price tag in rural and remote Indigenous communities, so the consortium will work with the Red River Métis and First Nations communities across Manitoba to increase access to affordable, nutritious, supply-stable and culturally appropriate food and create community-specific recipes that will incorporate pulses and other plant-based ingredients. 

The collaborative creation of these food options aims to nourish and nurture long-term health outcomes, while increasing opportunities for student learning and jobs and contributing toward future Indigenous economic development. 

“The investments into this project are advancing the future of food for all Canadians,” Protein Industries Canada CEO Robert Hunter said. “Diversifying the value-added sector provides protein options and country-wide economic growth that supports the expansion of Canada’s plant-based food and ingredient ecosystem. It’s equally important that we invest in communities and economic reconciliation with Indigenous people, ensuring the growth of this industry supports inclusion, shared prosperity and long-term partnerships across the country.” 

Throughout this project, the consortium will collaborate with the communities in a variety of ways. Together, RRC Polytech, MMF and UM will engage community members; hire students and interns; perform market research on both existing food products and future resource applications; develop food products; teach hands-on classes; and develop workshop materials to engage communities in food production and cooking skills. The project is expected to provide a case study for engaging in respectful discussions with Indigenous communities and creating an example for other organizations to follow a similar path forward. 

“RRC Polytech is committed to elevating Indigenous Peoples and communities, so we’re excited for our team of experts at Prairie Research Kitchen (PRK) to join our partners in this transformative initiative,” said Jamie Wilson, Vice-President, Indigenous Strategy, Research and Business Development, RRC Polytech. “PRK’s professional staff and student workforce has led the way in embracing Truth and Reconciliation within our College community, and across the province at large, by being the first to create Indigenous research positions; mandating Four Seasons training for all staff; engaging students from the Indigenous Culinary Skills program; and actively pursuing and supporting Indigenous entrepreneurs. Their knowledge, understanding and eagerness to collaborate will be a tremendous asset to the project.”

The following news release was distributed by the Province of Manitoba:

The Manitoba government is supporting the launch of Red River College Polytechnic’s (RRC Polytech) modernized American Sign Language (ASL) – English Interpretation Advanced Diploma Program (AEIP) to improve outcomes for students serving both the Deaf and non-Deaf communities, Advanced Education and Training Minister Renée Cable announced today.

“Embracing diversity and inclusion makes our communities and province stronger,” said Cable. “We’re proud to work with RRC to make Manitoba a more inclusive and accessible place. The new program will enhance student success and prepare graduates to provide interpretive services for Deaf Manitobans.”
The Manitoba government has provided $225,000 for one-time renovation and equipment costs, in addition to $190,000 in annual funding to support ongoing program operations.

The modernized program provides a strong foundation in ASL fluency and Deaf history and culture, with interpreting practice in both classroom and real-world settings, noted the minister. The program has undergone an academic transformation, revamping its content, design and delivery to better meet the evolving needs of learners and the community. Graduates will be equipped to work as entry-level interpreters in various settings including kindergarten to Grade 12 public schools, colleges, businesses and social services.

Other new program elements include:

• a three-year full-time program encompassing eight terms;
• revised admission requirements to ensure incoming learners have intermediate language fluency and a minimum of 120 hours of ASL learning;
• leveraging work-integrated learning opportunities such as practicums to augment in-class training and provide hands-on experience to enhance foundational skills for general interpreting; and
• opportunities for community involvement that will further increase ASL fluency and understanding of Deaf history.

RRC Polytech is also offering three ASL courses through Continuing Education to support greater proliferation of ASL language training and support future program participants to meet admission requirements, the minister noted. The first intake in fall 2025 has a projected enrollment of 10 students, with an annual capacity of 20 students.

“RRC Polytech is committed to creating a culture of inclusivity both on campus and in our communities,” said Aileen Najduch, acting vice-president academic, RRC Polytech. “Our programs are routinely updated and modernized to ensure they continue to meet the needs of the students and industries we serve. This new advanced diploma will have benefits to the community including a new learning lab and more simulation experience opportunities which will improve outcomes for students who will graduate from the program and ultimately for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community they will support.”

RRC Polytech consulted several partners and community representatives when structuring this programming and curriculum, including employers and practicum partners, the minister noted. Indigenous ways of knowing and learning have also been integrated into the program to strengthen relationships with Indigenous partners, learners and communities.

Longtime RRC Polytech supporter Walter Schroeder has been named one of 12 Manitobans to receive the 2025 Order of Manitoba, the province’s highest honour. Schroeder will formally receive the recognition in a ceremony at the Manitoba Legislative Building on July 17, 2025. 

The Schroeder Foundation, the philanthropical organization that Walter and his wife Maria established following his retirement, is behind RRC Polytech’s largest donation in history: a $15-million gift to launch the Schroeder Institute of Entertainment and Media Arts. 

The Schroeders, in partnership with RRC Polytech, created the Institute to support ongoing opportunities for students at RRC Polytech, and to foster growth and development in Manitoba’s burgeoning creative arts industry. 

“Walter Schroeder is one of RRC Polytech’s prolific supporters, and his generosity is driven purely by his dedication to changing students’ lives,” said Fred Meier, President & CEO, RRC Polytech. “Through the Schroeder Foundation, Walter and Maria have created countless opportunities for students in Manitoba, particularly those with more barriers to accessing post-secondary education. The Schroeders’ investment in RRC Polytech, and their commitment to expanding programming to address needs, is a testament to their selfless desire to make Manitoba a more equitable place to work and learn, for all.” 

The Schroeder Foundation provides fully paid scholarships to hundreds of RRC Polytech students, which includes tuition, books, and wrap-around supports.  

In December 2024, the Schroeder Foundation reached a milestone of $18.2 million in support to RRC Polytech, with an additional $1.25 million donation coming on the heels of the $15 million Schroeder Institute gift, to provide even more full-ride scholarships for Winnipeg students. 

Schroeder Foundation students also have the opportunity to participate in the Transition to College program, which helps them start their programs with the knowledge and confidence they need to succeed from day one. 

In 2023, Walter and Maria Schroeder were awarded with the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Manitoba Outstanding Philanthropist Award.  RRC Polytech also honoured the duo with an Honorary Bachelor of Education degree in 2022, in recognition of their dedication to removing barriers to education for Manitoba youth.

Over the last few months, the monthly safety updates to the College community have focused mainly on security, however another important initiative at RRC Polytech is the health services we provide to students and staff.

RRC Polytech’s Health Services provides students and staff with a variety of health and wellness information for general interest, ongoing health condition maintenance, plus treatment for injuries and illness.

RRC Polytech has continued to see growth and expansion of the Exchange District Campus with the opening of Manitou a bi Bii daziigae and more students and staff working and learning downtown.

With the increased presence and growing needs downtown, we have recently begun an exciting initiative to bring a health centre to serve the downtown campus community.

This space is currently being renovated at The Roblin Centre and will be open to students or staff to make appointments with members of the Health Services nursing team who will work from this centre.

While the Health Services nursing team currently serves students at EDC through regular meetings downtown, bringing students to the Notre Dame Campus for appointments, or annual events like the flu vaccine clinics, this new space and presence will help ensure the College community can seek health service assistance from the nursing team when they need it.

We look forward to sharing more information about this exciting initiative with the College community once the space is complete and open in the near future.

Please remember the Health Services team is here to help with a number of supports and services to all members of the College community. The Health Centre is open from 8:00am – 4:00pm Monday to Friday and we encourage students or staff to call anytime to speak with nursing staff at RRC Polytech: 204-632-2238 or HealthServices@rrc.ca
