This award recognizes the important contribution of a municipality or aboriginal community to the economic development of its community, and by extension, the MRC Matawinie. Mr. Jonathan Landreville, General Manager of SADC Matawinie, and Mr. Mario Turcot, General Manager of Desjardins Entreprises, had the honor of presenting the Municipality in the Spotlight award to the <strong>Atikamekw community of Manawan<\/strong> for their involvement in the economic development of their community. The Auberge Manawan, the Auberge Manawan restaurant and the Bois \u00c9nergie Manawan machining company were the three (3) achievements honoured. Ms. Th\u00e9r\u00e8se Niquay, Director of Community Services and Projects for the Conseil des Atikamekw de Manawan, said she was very moved by this recognition, and emphasized that this was only the beginning of a broader revitalization process that is part of the 2015-2020 Strategic Plan drawn up by the Conseil des Atikamekw de Manawan. The ultimate goal is to promote tourism development in Manawan and maximize the community's financial spin-offs by generating independent revenues.<\/p>\n<p>So it was in a most inspiring atmosphere that this 3<sup>e<\/sup> edition of the Souper tournant des gens d'affaires en Matawinie was held.
