Manitoba Election 2023

The 2023 Manitoba election results are in: Wab Kinew’s New Democratic Party has won a majority government, defeating Heather Stefanson’s Progressive Conservatives.

Stefanson had led the province for two years following the resignation of former PC Leader Brian Pallister, making this vote the first chance Manitobans had to decide whether she had done enough to warrant handing her a four-year mandate.

In the end, voters opted for change in an election that put healthcare, crime and the cost of living at the forefront. And while environmental issues weren’t the focus on the campaign trail, Kinew’s victory is expected to lead to a notable change in Manitoba’s climate policies.
