Business Detail
Gillam, Manitoba, Canada, is a community between Thompson and Churchill on the Hudson Bay Railway line. Gillam is a significant community because of the nearby Nelson River Bipole converter station on the Nelson River.The Town of Gillam itself is quite small with an approximate population of 1200 people most of whom are employed by Manitoba Hydro and work at one of the many stations in the surrounding area.
The large Gillam Local Government District was established by the Manitoba government in the mid-1960s to facilitate development of hydroelectricity on the lower Nelson River. At 1988.51 square kilometres, Gillam is considered to be the 15th largest city or town in Canada, although the majority of the encompassing area of the District is largely uninhabited and undeveloped, but filled with many lakes, rivers and large forests of pine trees. Three of Manitoba's largest hydro damsâKettle Generating Station, Long Spruce Generating Station, and Limestone Generating Stationâare located within Gillam's boundaries.
Gillam is also the home of Fox Lake Cree Nation, an Indian Band whose members originally inhabited the area. A majority of the members of Fox Lake Cree Nation live in the Town of Gillam or on Reserve Land in the nearby community of Bird, which is also located within the Gillam Local Government District.
There are also many small businesses, a small mall, grocery store, school (K-12), recreation centre, a train station and a local Royal Canadian Mounted Police branch.
Today, the economy of the community is bustling with numerous businesses and services located throughout the town. The community acts as a retail and shopping centre for a large number of small Northern Manitoba communities. Air or truck brings in goods and supplies, and are re-distributed to the communities that need them.
Gillam is located in a wilderness paradise and has built itself a thriving tourist industry. The region is dotted with thousands of untouched lakes and streams, and the opportunities for trophy fishing are almost endless. Numerous lodges and fly-in outposts attract thousands of hunters, fishers and outdoors enthusiasts each year. Many of these travelers pass through Gillam on their way in or out of the wilderness, and many of the town's businesses capitalize on this opportunity by providing goods, supplies and accommodations.
