Premier Greg Selinger replaces 5 cabinet ministers in government revolt – CBC
Opposition Liberal leader says premier should call an election immediately
Manitoba Premier Greg Selinger has appointed new cabinet ministers to replace five members who started a revolt against his leadership and resigned their posts today.
The ministers who resigned on Monday morning — known informally as the “Gang of Five” — cited “turmoil” and “grave concerns” about not being able to speak their minds in government.
However, the five outgoing ministers said they will remain staunch New Democratic members of the legislative assembly and vote with the government on issues in the legislature.
