Manitoba Reopens $300 Security Rebate Program: What to Know

A Fresh Chance for Safer Homes

Good news for Manitobans thinking about upgrading home security — the province has reopened its Security Rebate Program, offering up to $300 back for approved security upgrades.

The program was extremely popular the first time around and filled up fast. With new funding, residents now have another opportunity to apply and make their homes more secure.

What’s Covered

The rebate helps offset the cost of equipment like cameras, alarms, and reinforced doors or windows.

• Maximum rebate: $300 (pre-tax) per household or rental unit
• Eligible items include:
  • Security cameras and video doorbells
  • Alarm systems and motion detectors
  • Reinforced doors or windows
  • Smart locks and glass-break sensors
  • Protective shutters or fencing
• Not covered: repairs, subscriptions, or labour not tied to installation

Who Can Apply

This current intake is open to homeowners and tenants (with landlord permission). A separate rebate program for small businesses is expected to launch later this year, giving business owners their own opportunity to apply for funding.
