The Manitoba government will unveil its plans for the year ahead with a focus on fixing health care, affordability and ending chronic homelessness in a throne speech to be delivered Nov. 21, Premier Wab Kinew announced Thursday.
In a media release Kinew said, “Convenient access to high-quality health care, lowering costs for your family and a balanced budget, and new actions to address homelessness – these are the foundations of a safe, prosperous Manitoba. There is much for us to accomplish and I look forward to sharing our plans that will get real results for Manitobans on the issues that matter most. Together, there is no challenge that we cannot meet in this province.”
Prior to the speech from the throne, the Manitoba legislative assembly will also elect a Speaker of the house Nov. 9, noted Kinew.
The first session of the 43rd legislature will convene on Nov. 21 at 1:30 p.m. with the reading of the speech from the throne by Lt.-Gov. Anita R. Neville.
