If there’s one thing Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson should have learned from predecessor Brian Pallister, it is to get Indigenous issues right.

The RCMP can spend 90 million to forcefully remove traditional Wet'suwet'en peoples from their unceded homelands for oil pipelines owned by foreign corporations but can't spend a dollar to solve some murder cases when they know where the bodies are located. #SearchTheLandfill

You should be paying attention to what’s unfolding in Winnipeg.
As of 6pm Central- Friday, July 14 (today), the Winnipeg Police have the authority to remove blockaders at the Brady Landfill in Winnipeg. An injunction was granted to the City of Winnipeg earlier today after family members of four slain Indigenous women ,whose bodies are believed to be laying in two dumps in Winnipeg, blocked the road to the city owned Brady Landfill last week. The blockade was in response to the Province of Manitoba announcing it has no plans to search the Prairie Green Landfill following the review of a landfill search feasibility study. This is the state of so-called reconciliation in Canada. #MMIWG

Downtown Wpg has suffered the impacts of the PCs selling off hundreds of affordable housing units and cutting healthcare & organizations which support families.
Healthy, housed and connected communities are safer communities.
Everyone understands this except the PCs. #mbpoli

IMPORTANT. EASY. PLS SHARE.
SAFE CARE ON is calling all Ontarians to share that SARS-CoV-2 mitigations are absolutely essential in all #ONhealth settings.
Everyone has the right to access healthcare safely.

Conservatives are scraping the bottom of the barrel with attack ads by the Canada Growth Council. This group is supported by the secretive, cultish Plymouth Brethren Christian Church. And it supports the type of conservative government Manitobans have suffered under. 1/

@HStefansonMB, @minewasko, and @JamesTeitsma are setting our schools up for failure.
Here are some facts about why their plan for new P3s is bad for Manitoba's schools. #mbpoli

A substantial amount of the MB education rebate went to corporate property holders and millionaires.
“The top 10 per cent of education tax rebate cheques in 2021 added up to four times more than the bottom 10 per cent.”

Province spent over $1M to print, mail cheques to Manitobans in 2021, 2022
A lot of this money would have been better off being used in public services that support communities. cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/…

When does Covid become endemic? Hoping that 2023 sees a downward trend. #mbpoli #politicalcartoon #covid_19 #pandemic #endemic #staysafe #getboosted #wearamask
I always mask in public, haven't eaten in a restaurant in years or seen anyone socially in weeks to try to keep my family safe. 3 days into Christmas, this. No one I was around bothered to test & don't seem to care. Don't stop taking precautions, esp now that most people aren't.

Wait, so 70 officers for 20 MILLION dollars? So, the province is looking at paying 285,714 dollars PER OFFICER.
With the province having so many other problems (i.e. Health care), I really don't think that this is money well spent (1/2)

In a place where we have to battle for the rights of Indigenous peoples, MPs let the truth be heard and unanimously passed a motion recognizing what happened at residential schools as a genocide.
This is historic. To survivors and descendants, I honour you today and every day.
