BENEFITS TO MANITOBA
Unlimited!
EXACTLY
As the weather warms, you may be surprised to learn the federal government has already planned your summer vacation for you. To be fair, if you don’t like what the government has planned, you don’t have to go. But you still must pay some of the expenses for those who do. In fact, you must pay whether anyone goes or not, because Ottawa spends taxpayer money on subsidies for tourism and vacation sites.
For example, the federal government recently announced $1.6 million for tourism initiatives in northeastern Ontario, including money for a ski club to buy a large trail groomer, a canoe and kayak rental service to upgrade facilities and buy equipment, a municipality to build a new wharf to dock cruise vessels, a First Nation to construct a boardwalk to improve access to 32 boat slips, and so on. Of course, federal subsidies spread far beyond Ontario. For example, there’s the recent $353,000 in federal funding for the Atlantic Canada Cruise Association “to implement a three-year strategic plan to enhance cruise tourism in the region.” All Canadian taxpayers must chip in whether they go on an Atlantic Canadian cruise or not. And don’t confuse this $353,000 handout with a separate $350,000 for the Charlottetown Harbour Authority to support cruise tourism in Prince Edward Island.
The $2 million for eight projects was part of the federal government’s much larger Tourism Growth Program launched in 2023, which earmarked $108 million over three years to support tourism. This $108 million was in turn part of a larger Federal Tourism Growth Strategy and on top of various other federal, provincial and territorial programs, which hand out taxpayer cash to various corporations and non-profits.
A final example. The federal government’s “Indigenous Tourism Fund’s Signature Indigenous Tourism Experiences Stream” recently gave a total of $6 million to: an Indigenous cultural centre in Nova Scotia, an Indigenous restaurant in the Quebec City airport, an Indigenous tourism centre in Ontario, an Indigenous thermal spa in Alberta, an Indigenous cultural centre’s café and expanded gift shop in British Columbia, and an Indigenous resort in B.C.
These federal government subsidies are a waste of money. Tourists, not taxpayers, should pay for tourism. Canadians who are uninterested in visiting these tourist locations — and Canadians who cannot afford to go on trips at all — should not be made to pay for them.
Aside from the issue of fairness, these subsidies make no sense. From an economic perspective, there are two standard justifications for government subsidies. One is to fight poverty by subsidizing necessities for the poor. Six-figure handouts for cruise tourism clearly do not fall into this category.
The second possible justification is what economists call a “positive externality,” which means the economic transaction generates benefits for third parties uninvolved in that transaction. An activity that cleans the environment can be said to have positive externalities; people going on cruises cannot.
More examples. The federal government recently announced nearly $2 million for eight projects across Alberta: $249,999 for a secluded mountain lodge, $349,629 for Indigenous art galleries, $250,000 for a ranch retreat, $250,000 for a cultural heritage village, $341,184 for outdoor spa amenities and outer facilities at a lodge, $200,000 for Indigenous tourism experiences on a reserve, $184,469 for another Indigenous tourism facility, and $115,000 for a canoe and kayak rental company.

The overall layout of Music City Manitoba – The Isle of Wayne, Manitoba!
huge benefits for manitoba!
The first 3 years beginning in 2027, we can deliver up to 1118,000 tourists per year. Once the Entertainment Centre & The Glamping Chalets are completed, we can deliver up to 1.825 million Tourist for 365 days every year, thereafter.
We deliver our own tourists, to ourselves!
1000s of exciting, well – paid jobs, will be available.
The province will receive an enormous boost to its’ economy.
This project will generate more tourism dollars than the Winnipeg Jets, The Blue Bombers, The Forks, etc. put together in any given year. In fact, it will generate almost as much as the whole tourism department of the provincial government does.
For those that say it can’t be done, they don’t know what they are talking about, with all due respect.
Many new business, industries etc.
1000s of well – paying jobs of all kinds, dozens of businesses & Industries, will be created, for years to come
Free Publicity Awareness Campaign.
Influx of Millions of Tourists that we would not have, otherwise.
Increased Tax Base.
Increase in customers & spend per day for local businesses.
Consistent revenue for the province.
An unprecedented funding program that will create funding for sports, towns, art & cultural groups, etc. so they will never be short of money to carry on their activities. And one location to display their talents to the World.
We will create a location, and facility that all cultural groups, can use for their celebrations, whenever they want. With very low – cost travel & Accommodations for their families, friends, attendees, and participants.
Free Advertising and promotion for our Province throughout Canada & The United States and in fact around the World. That we would not otherwise have.
Improvements to Infrastructure.
A 16 – mile boardwalk designed to last a lifetime. For everyone to enjoy.
Improved ability to attract permanent residents.
Improved ability to attract additional government funding for other important provincial projects.
Improved popularity in and around the region for the provincial government, and greater attention for the town.
Free show tickets for the local residents on a number of occasions.
Music City Manitoba – The Isle of Wayne will bring the worlds’ very best singers, songwriters, musicians, & performers to our town, and the millions of people who appreciate them.
All that is missing at this point is the government to lease or sell to us, an unused piece of land!
In the middle of nowhere. That has not been used for 1000s of years, and likely never will be.
BIG BENEFITS FOR MANITOBA & THE TOWN.
We will be building a 444,000 sq. ft. Entertainment Centre (approx.) with 100s of beautiful, warm, & cozy Glamping Pods, in The Isle of Wayne, Manitoba, Canada. This Epic Project will take 5 – 10 years to be fully complete.
In the meantime:
♠ We will deliver up to 118,000 Tourists per year for the first 3 years, for our preliminary events, (TBD – Days)
and up to 1,825,000 – 3,650,000 Tourists per year, thereafter.
♠ This project, long term, will create 1000s of well paying, exciting jobs for Manitoba & the local Region.
♠ This project, long term, will create a number of related businesses & industries (Such as – Glamping Pod Manufacturers, Ships & Houseboat Manufacturers, Lawn Chair & Table Manufacturers, Port O Pottie Manufacturers, Corn Hole Boards Manufacturers, A Coffee & Meal Distribution Centre, Laser Engraving Manufacturers), and many more, in the town. Deliver clients to your door, and give more business, to all the businesses in town. 365 days per year.
♠ This project will create an Economic Boom for the province, the likes of which has never been seen, for a small town, anywhere in Canada, most certainly in Manitoba, that we don’t have at the present time, and never will have.
♠ We will create a dynamic promotional informercial, and a huge marketing campaign, for Manitoba, and air it across North America. (To help put us on the map, so to speak)
♠ This project will create billions of dollars for the town and province, long term.
♠ Plus we will pay the town millions of dollars in upgrades to infrastructure, and beautification, for the use of the facilities, and all related fees, and assistance we may require. This will go a long way in upgrading, improving, and maintaining your existing facilities, and in planning for even more exciting benefits for our citizenry.
♠ We will make this town the “Tourist Destination of Canada”.
♣ This is like filling up the Winnipeg Arena for a Jets game, 102 times per year.
♣ or the Roger’s Centre in Toronto, for Blue Jays games, 36 times per year.
♣ or The Selkirk Rec Centre 520 times per year.
- No one else would or could do this. We Don’t Have to, Or Need To. But We Can! and We Want To!
- Comes with tourists delivered to the towns’ door. Doesn’t affect what anyone else may have going.
- As well as dozens, of exciting Tournaments, with participants from all across North America.
NO TOWN, ACROSS NORTH AMERICA, WILL HAVE ANYTHING, SIMILAR TO THIS PROGRAM.
YOU CAN BET ON THAT!

what we will do for manitoba
♥
Billions of Tourism Dollars, rolling in!
Alberta is the only province that does not have its own sales tax, relying instead on its oil revenues.
Can you imagine Manitoba doing the same thing? We can! We can rely on Tourism instead of oil. No reason not to be able to do that.
There is just as much money in Tourism, as there is in oil. This project can be a start to that.
They have a population of 5,048,151. We have only 1,340,000. So, it would be a lot easier for us to do that, without billions for infrastructure.
Think Big, Think Smart!

Curling & Hockey Arenas
Our facilities will be used 365 days per year, and will not set empty like all the other facilities in Manitoba do, over half the time. Thus, costing towns & municipalities a fortune just to keep them open.
The Hockey Arena will be named after my late brother, Bill Flett, who died, while on the ice, playing hockey.

Music City Manitoba’s Fire Detecting Station, Lighthouse & Laser Show Facility.
We can probably design this, so it could have a few Glamping Cabins in it, as well. I prefer the one made of Limestone. Maybe 3 or 4 stories.
That way it can pay for itself. We could probably charge extra for that priviledge?
Check into that.
***
Westerheversand Lighthous in Germany.
Made of cast Iron.
Music City Manitoba’s Fire Detecting Station, Lighthouse & Laser Show Facility.
We can probably design something similar to this one as well, but it is 130 ft high. We can make many levels, and it could literally make it into a “motel”, or have a quite few Glamping Cabins in it, as well. We would want it coloured Black & Gold!

We will be installing The Great Stratocaster Zip Line. It will run across Banjo Bay, on Lake Winnipeg. It will be about 5000 ft. The seats, landing & launching pads will be shaped like Stratocaster guitars. We might be able to get Fender to sponsor the Zip Line.
It will be similar to the Zip Line depicted, on the left.

This Sawmill is 113 Km from the Isle of Wayne. The 2nd one is 805 Km away.
There are million upon millions of trees on this property. We want to save as many as possible, but we still have to clean
some of the area, that are required for fields of play, and all that. So, no use in wasting that resource.
That is why it would be a good idea to use it for material that we need for our construction.
We estmate that we need 1,734,395 bd. ft. just for the Boardwalk.
We will be get all the lumber we need from sawmills right here in Manitoba, and in the region. We already have a couple in mind. One in my home town.
We need a lot of lumber for the Docks, Boardwalk, maybe even for the Glamping Chalets, depending on the most economical way to build them.
We might even be able to supply the trees.
this project will not cost
the province a dime!
We will raise all the funds required to achieve this goal.
https://youtu.be/Ugnbxu7zATw?si=hSEXbzduFxwEygfy
It is our intention to donate this entire project and company, to the town of The Isle of Wayne, Manitoba, once it is up and running.
Or to the Province, so they can designate it, a Provincial Park.
This one will actually pay for itself!
Due to age and health, the sooner the better!

The Town of The Isle of Wayne will be handling the necessary licenses, to run and operate all those activities that may require that.
Assistance in making sure everything runs smoothly.
Assistance in putting a team of carpenters etc. together to manufacture the Glamping Chalets units. Many full – time jobs.
Assistance in finding the best locations for various sports activities around the property.
Assistance in finding people, organizations, and businesses to participate in this project.
Assistance in making local residents aware, and encouraging their participation, in all what we are planning to include and offering.
Assist us in finding an organization/business that may want to provide a Breakfast Buffet & a Fish Dinner. They can make huge money on this.
Contact the local organizations & businesses to see if they will participate in all the tournaments etc. that we are not planning, at this time.
Examples:
The Paint Ball Paradise – We will supply the customers!
The Golf Course
Arrange a Bombardier “Sight Seeing Tour”. All tourists will have to pay a small fee for a “ride” This will go to all the participating bombardier owners to help maintain the activity, and keep these amazing machines running, at the top of their game. (I got my first driver’s license using a bombardier, so this is really special to me). We will try to promote this so that people will want to come to Music City Manitoba, just so they can take a ride! I have half a song written about that already… Stay tuned. We will post it here, when finished.
We will try to get Bombardier Inc. to be one of the Main Sponsor of Music City Manitoba – The Isle of Wayne, Manitoba.
We need to use as much local regional participation, on anything and everything, as much as possible. After all, this is all for them, and who best knows the area.

all local residents to get one of these cards!
THE BLACK GOLD MEMBERSHIP VIP CARD
The 1st Amphitheatre on Banjo Bay, of this Epic Project, will be used as our temporary Venue.
A. Upon completing the task of “getting it all together”, the building constructed, and running at 100% efficiency, and totally paid for, we will donate the entire building, the Company, and the entire project, everything, with the booking/customer data base, along with numerous sponsors (to help maintain it for many years to come, to the town of The Isle of Wayne, Manitoba, just for their cooperation, insight, vision, that this town provides).
B. We can begin training people from The Isle of Wayne Region, to be able to run and manage the whole thing, as soon as the town wants. The sooner the better!
We are no longer checking out other towns that may have need a boost to their economy, we have found the perfect place, The Isle of Wayne, Manitoba, Canada. who will appreciate the potential benefits of this Epic Tourism Project.
