ICE needed to purchase a chartered Canadian exchange with clearing house .. and the WCE is the one they picked, due to its involvement in commodities to match with the CBT, making it ICE world's largest commodity company in the world, with chartered exchanges in the States and Canada. Canada having massive amounts of commodity trading .. and Winnioeg to pick up that business.

Talking to a few in the industry they say look for significant expansion, especially if Winnipeg gets into base metals and energy trading, which is ICE stated intensions. This could be huge for Winnipeg.

new boom?
