In 1999 Manitoba housing co‑ops decided to receive local services through a Winnipeg-based office of CHF Canada. Together they agreed to close down the regional federation. With CHF Canada’s help, they decided how the new regional office would be organized and what it would do. CHF Canada’s office in Winnipeg opened in January 2000.

Manitoba co‑ops pay a premium above CHF Canada’s normal dues to support the delivery of local services.
