The Manitoba Métis Federation (MMF), the National Government of the Red River Métis, annually hosts the Red River Métis Business Expo. The 2024 Expo will take place on December 3 & 4, 2024, at the RBC Convention Centre. This year's expo is inspired by the entrepreneurial traditions of Red River Métis buffalo hunts and the ingenuity of Red River carts, driven by our rich history of business and trade relations. Its focus is further informed by principles of shared objectives, and by broader community-benefits.
