WINNIPEG — The Manitoba government is ending its rebate program for security systems, as the program's budget was quickly eaten up.

WINNIPEG — The Manitoba government is ending its rebate program for security systems, as the program's budget was quickly eaten up.

The program is to be evaluated before the government decides whether to relaunch it, but Justice Minister Matt Wiebe said it appears to be successful in making streets safer. Applications submitted before the cutoff are still being processed, and the government estimates close to 8,800 applications will be approved in the end.

The structure of the rebate program caused some problems, Remillard said. He would like to see something permanent instead of a temporary first-come, first-serve method. A separate funding stream for businesses would also be welcome.
