Press Release
October 3, 2024
The Manitoba government is marking one year of progress on the things that matter most to Manitobans, like fixing health care and making life more affordable for families, Premier Wab Kinew announced today alongside members of the government caucus.
“This past year has been an amazing privilege. Our government has seen the best of Manitobans,” said Kinew. “One year ago, I said that government can’t take the first step – every person must want to do that on their own. But I committed that, should you decide to take that step, our government will be there to meet you, with healthy food for every child, with quality health care for every patient and with a safe place to call home for every person. Today, on our anniversary, I hope Manitobans see progress on these promises and continue to believe our government has their back.”
The government was elected on Oct. 3, 2023, and the cabinet was sworn in on Oct. 18. Since then, the province has made significant progress on the commitments made to Manitobans in ministerial mandate letters, noted Kinew.
The premier shared highlights of the government’s progress on top provincial issues:
“We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, but we’re excited to keep moving forward on these commitments and the other promises we’ve made to Manitobans,” said Kinew. “We’re happy to work together to build a Manitoba that is strong and free.”
