In statement of claim filed before #ManitobaCourt of King's Bench on Tues, #Peguis — largest #FirstNation in Manitoba, seeks compensation for financial losses & other damages that occurred during a series of #floods along the Fisher River.
If anyone wants Canadian content in a "Reddit-like" format, lemmy.ca federates with Mastodon. For example, @manitoba can be followed directly on Mastodon (though it's kind of messy, as both posts and comments show up in the feed as "boosts"). Beyond that, you can simply tag the account in a toot, and it will double as a post to that lemmy community - you'll get the replies, too!
Manitoba suspended its 14c/l gas tax on January 1.
My first look at the best data available as of today shows a large effect. Estimate will be clearer over coming days. (Tax cut will likely be fully passed through to consumers, as we've seen elsewhere.) #cdnecon#mbpoli
Congratulations #Manitoba! The province becomes the second to offer FREE prescription #contraception to its residents, after British Columbia! Back in March, ARCC applauded the NDP government for its commitment to no-cost prescription contraception for residents.
Former #Conservative MP Candice Bergen is distancing herself from the recent #Manitoba election and her role in the PC's 'nasty' & ultimately failed campaign.
Bergen says she "played only an honorary role" & was not a key handler.
Pundits are speculating that Ms. Bergen may now run for leader of the Manitoba Conservatives.
#MBPoli we now need to hold the NDPs feet to the fire. I voted for him because the alternative was worse and I wonder how many people are in the same boat. I don't feel optimistic but I am working to hold onto hope.
Even though my wife and I had a good conversation about the future of Manitoba, she reminded me that our conservative family is gathering for Thanksgiving this weekend.
Now the only statement that runs like a loop through my head is "Aww, shit. Don't talk about the election with them."
Loved Wab Kinew's speech. It was so inspirational, warm, and welcoming. It was touching how everyone sang for Wab's mom. He is the leader Manitoba needs.
@SusanHR Healthcare workers are heroes and should be respected by governments. The PCs and Heather Stefanson did nothing to improve healthcare in Manitoba and disrespected nurses and doctors. Wab Kinew is a breath of fresh air in #Manitoba.
@LALegault At very least, after the big defeat in Manitoba, conservatives in other provinces will hesitate now before attacking trans and non-binary children to try to win votes.
Unfortunately, if they stop attacking children, they'll just look for another vulnerable group to exploit as a "wedge issue."
