Over the past year, Wab Kinew and your NDP team have taken action to everything from improving health care, to making life more affordable, to ending chronic homelessness, and so much more.
As we approach the one year anniversary of our historic election win, we want to hear from you. Which policy has made the biggest impact for you and your community?
🩺 Rebuilding health care after seven years of PC cuts – we’re hiring 1,000 new health care workers, reopening emergency rooms closed by the PCs, and improving access to health care in rural and northern Manitoba.
💲 Making life more affordable for families – we’re creating more $10/day child care spaces, introducing rebates for security systems and cameras, lowering MPI rates, cutting the gas tax, and introducing a rebate for EVs and plug-in hybrids.
🏡 Ending chronic homelessness and improving housing affordability – we’re ending chronic homelessness by investing in more affordable housing and strengthening supports for Manitobans struggling with addiction. We’re also introducing a new $1,500 homeowners affordability tax credit and strengthening tax credits for renters.
📚 Investing in education and helping kids get a good start in life – we’re investing in public education to ensure that every student gets the supports they need in the classroom. This includes over $100 million in education funding and creating Canada’s first-ever universal school nutrition program.
🌱 Protecting our air, water and land and taking action on climate change – we’re protecting 30% of our Province’s land by 2030, including the Seal River Watershed. We’re also taking action on climate change by investing in low-carbon jobs, strengthening our electrical grid, and restoring funding to environmental organizations who saw their budgets cut by the PCs.
💼 Supporting workers and helping more Manitobans stay safe on the job – we’ve introduced legislation to make it easier to join a union and to ban replacement workers during strikes and lockouts. We also re-established the Advisory Council on Workplace Safety and Health after it was cut by the Conservatives.
