While we are encouraged by a plan that states it will retain, train and recruit, we are disappointed to not hear more about retaining current allied health professionals. How do you retain over 6000 members that are almost five years without a contract? #mbpoli

The Premier and the PCs voted against a Hydro rate freeze… and the Liberals also voted against freezing your Hydro rates. They had a chance to save you money and now their choice will cost you more. #mbpoli
