Brandon, MB - The Manitoba NDP 2018 Convention wrapped up today as delegates met in Brandon to focus on building towards the 2020 election and making Brian Pallister a one-term premier.
Throughout Convention 2018, delegates expressed opposition to Pallister’s heath care and education cuts that hurt Manitoba families and seniors. Resolutions were passed rejecting two-tier American-style privatized health care, calling for improved support for those dealing with addictions and mental health, condemning Pallister’s plan to close emergency rooms and urgent care centres and supporting a national universal pharmacare program.
The NDP Commission to Establish a Safe and Respectful Political Environment released its Report at Convention 2018. The report was endorsed by Leader Wab Kinew and passed unanimously by delegates.
The Manitoba NDP would like to thank the commissioners Kemlin Nembhard and Sandra Delaronde for leading the commission and their service.

Dear Friends,
Last week the Manitoba NDP Executive approved a proposal to create a Commission to Establish a Safe and Respectful Political Environment. This past week was difficult, and very triggering for many people, and we acknowledge the courage of the women who have come forward and shared their experiences about sexual harassment at work. We need to do much more to ensure safety and respect for all employees, MLAs, members and others.
Our commission will have four goals:
P: 1-877-863-2976
or (204) 987-4857
F: (204) 786-2443
