https://actionline.ca Long-time Winnipeg police officer Rejeanne Caron has become a key candidate for the Progressive Conservatives in the party’s effort to retain government on October 3. Still on patrol in Fort Rouge, Caron responds to violent crime, property offences, sexual assaults and other calls on-shift, and then campaigns to upset NDP leader Wab Kinew, and deny him a seat representing the constituency in the Manitoba Legislature.

In the third part of our exclusive series, Parker Lands developer Andrew Marquess paints a bleak picture for taxpayers and investors because of the financial risks in dealing with Winnipeg City Hall. The internet lit up with news about a $5M court ruling that the City administration deliberately obstructed his 1900 unit housing project for years and lied to his face. He's incurred millions in legal fees, costs and losses, but in the big picture, his concern is that anyone can be a victim- and

With the PC platform roll-out resembling tactical chess and the Manitoba NDP's coming across as playing checkers, the aspirations of the opposition increasingly rely on doorstep conversions in discussions with voters. An unexpected addition to the kitchen table conversations during the campaign is the volatile issue of "parental rights". Amplified by heated dismissals of cautious traditional approaches to sexuality lessons as "anti-LGBTQ" and clouded with confusing

Identity politics continues to feed divisive headlines that legacy media newsrooms churn out with no shame. In Episode 5 of Season 3, we ask - Is Fake News being used to legitimize evaluating political candidates based on their blood quantums? You'll hear how one of those abhorrent narratives, used to pillory a PC incumbent, was granted the aura of 'fact' by biased Winnipeg newsrooms - but when put under the microscope, fails the test of truth. 7:06 - Kevin Klein, PC candidate in

Our first of Season 3 is a chat with Obby Khan, who held the Fort Whyte seat for the governing PC's in a 2021 byelection and eyes a return to the Legislature. Marty Gold talks with Khan about his background in the CFL, in business and with public safety, and about his stint as a Cabinet minister in the Stefanson administration.

That’s before a hearing to determine the value of his land that the City perhaps unwisely chose to claim for a retention pond

The Manitoba election race is being shaped by the political response to the increasing danger being faced by the public from crime and public disorder. Episode 38 kicks off with Marty Gold noting it took over 6 weeks for the Free Press to catch up to TGCTS coverage about the shocking "number, severity of crimes committed by Winnipeg youth." In the article, community activist Mitch Bourbonniere pointed to a new underlying 'root cause' of the explosion in under-18 violence. What

"He was against it, before he was for it.'' The baffling policy waffling of the Manitoba NDP took another surprise turn with a promise to re-open 3 suburban hospital emergency rooms. It's as if they thought no one would remember that their own previous regime had set in motion the shuttering of the ERs so services could be consolidated. In Episode 52 of Season 2, we explain how Wab Kinew added to his $1B a week election promise with a doozy that no one was buying for a very good

A chance sighting of Wab Kinew, and his as-yet unexplained refusal to take media questions after a campaign announcement this weekend, propelled the topic of Part 1 of Episode 51: The Perils of Media Scrums. As NDP poll support plummeted, the party has been drawn off the 'single issue ballot' approach emphasizing health care, with multiple headlines in the Winnipeg Sun all over the policy map; but the NDP returned to their core issue this weekend with the old "but think of the

When it became apparent that the liquor supply disruptors were heading to a contract agreement, the mainstream media lost a reliable supply of daily hot takes and updates. In analyzing the fallout, we see how unionized reporters can show their bias when reporting on government labour issues. As Marty Gold describes in Episode 50, there had already been a difference of opinion between the MGEU and the liquor workers union about moving to arbitration. And NDP leader Wab Kinew and his MLLC critic Lisa

After a press conference last week, Manitoba Liberal leader Dougald Lamont took a few minutes for an interview with TGCTS. Lamont is in a dogfight to retain his seat in St. Boniface and he defines the top issues in the riding: cost of living, crime, and healthcare. His seat, and those of his two fellow caucus members Dr. Jon Gerrard (River Heights) and Cindy Lamoureux (Tyndall Park) are being targetted by the NDP as they try to claw their way past the Tories and reach a bare majority of 29 members

After decades in the political doldrums, the Manitoba Liberal Party is trying to parlay dissatisfaction with the two leading parties into creating a safe harbour for voters. Leader Dougald Lamont, MLA for St. Boniface, set out an economic development plank at a press conference on Friday that he hopes will convince voters there’s a third way. “The NDP aren’t very good socialists and the PC’s aren’t very good capitalists”, Lamont insisted, “because even with the launch of their venture capital fund,

Part One focuses on a hard-working businessman who endured a series of break-ins that caused him to rack up $85,000 in security costs for his restaurants - and that was before this week's bizarre encounter with an aggrieved cabbie.

There's no bigger longshot in Manitoba politics than an independent candidate seeking to unseat an established MLA - but that's exactly what Patrick Allard is aiming to do in St. Johns. A contractor with experience in all sorts of building rehabilitations and renovations, Allard is a lifelong north-ender. He thinks that will help open the eyes and ears of voters in the constituency who may not be satisfied with two-term NDP representative Nahanni Fontaine, who has not lived north of the

It's a more personal view on public affairs than usual in many ways. The race-obsessed CBC was sure to find critics of Environment Minister Kevin Klein from numerous directions, including an estranged brother, questioning the true connections of the Kirkfield Park Tory to aboriginal blood.
