One day after Wab Kinew’s historic win, the premier designate spoke to the media about his plans for health-care, homelessness and searching the Prairie Green Landfill.
On Wednesday, Kinew held a news conference at the Manitoba Legislative Building, where he thanked Manitobans for putting their trust in the NDP to form the next government.
“I will commit to you again today that we are going to work hard every single day to repay the debt of gratitude that we feel for this opportunity by fixing your health-care and by making life more affordable for your family,” he said.
During the news conference, Kinew touched on a number of topics, including the search of the Prairie Green Landfill for the remains of Morgan Harris and Marcedes Myran.
Kinew said it will be important to his government to try to search the landfill.
“I think the first task before us is to go through the transition and be sworn in as a new government and then this will be one of those items that we’ll want to tackle in the very early days of our administration,” he said.
Kinew’s comment comes after the Progressive Conservatives ran election ads that highlighted their decision not to search the landfill.
