To Pawley's relief, these summits succeeded beyond his expectation, and revealed, at last to the leadership of Labor and Business (who normally were antagonistic to each other) that is was possible that consensus could be developed on the general approaches best utilized to generate growth and employment in the Manitoba economy.
Pawley's government also attempted to extend them in some limited ways wherever the costs would not be too excessive for the province to carry.
Pawley's government had failed earlier in their term to enact reforms in the crown corporations, which would otherwise have tightened up accountability and headed off some of the difficulties they later encountered during their last two years in office.

 [No title]
At the Ottawa Renewal Conference, discussion and debate in the Party Mission workshop focused on the role of socialism under globalization, the party's relationships to social movements, and the ability of the NDP to educate, mobilize and organize.
Howard Pawley led off by noting that the party's vision is growing less and less recognizable, and suggesting that our position on Charlottetown linked us in the public's eye to the mainline parties.
Central to our ability to rebuild, Pawley suggested is the need to articulate a vision and we have lost the ability to develop this vision through the grass roots because we are becoming too professional and too poll focused.
