About this listen

Part 1 - As the Manitoba government enters an agreement with the Winnipeg Free Press, Mark looks at its effects on journalistic integrity and on our education system

Part 2 - Manitoba's affordability crisis has been exacerbated by the Kinew government's flip-flops on housing, grocery prices, and income tax "bracket creep"

Part 3 - Kinew's $32M/year signature environmental plan to convert 5000 homes to geothermal has become another broken promise after 2 years and zero investment. Instead of committing to net-zero emissions by 2050 as promised, Kinew borrowed $340M for his gas tax holiday, leaving Manitoba as one of the only two provinces with rising greenhouse gas emissions.
