Background

edit

Under Manitoba'sElections Act,a general election must be held no later than the first Tuesday of October in the fourth calendar year following the previous election.[1]As the previous election was held in 2019, the latest possible date for the election was October 3, 2023, which was the official election date.[2]The election was held underfirst-past-the-post voting.

On August 10, 2021, incumbent premierBrian Pallisterannounced that he would not seek re-election and resigned shortly after. Members of theProgressive Conservative Party of ManitobaelectedHeather Stefansonto succeed PremierKelvin Goertzen,who served as interim leader of the party after Pallister's departure.[3][4]During the previous legislature, the opposition NDP had gained a polling lead over the PCs. However, the lead tightened during the campaign period.

Campaign

edit

Stefanson primarily campaigned on reducing the cost of living for Manitobans, crime, andparental rights in education.[5][6]Kinew led the NDP into the election.[7]The NDP campaign focused on healthcare reform and balancing the province's budget.[8][9]Dougald Lamontled the Liberals andJanine Gibsonled the Green Party, having been elected leader in March.

The PCs promoted the film industry in the province and in 2022 helpedWestJetlaunch direct flights fromLos AngelestoWinnipeg.[10]The New Democrats focused on healthcare with a promise to improve cardiac services.[10]They also pledged to install geothermal systems in thousands of homes.[11]The Liberals campaigned on creating more benefits for seniors, including establishing a minimum income for people over 60.[12]They also promised a new debt relief system if elected.[13]The Manitoba Chambers of Commerce encouraged voters to prioritise the economy when voting.[14]

During the final stages of the campaign, a point of contention was the proposed search of a Winnipeg landfill for the remains of themurderedIndigenouswomen Morgan Harris and Marcedes Myran. The PCs opposed the search, citing health and safety concerns. The Liberals and NDP supported a search.[5][15]Most other Indigenous issues were reportedly side-lined during the campaign.[16]

Other campaign issues included crime,[17]agriculture[18]and affordable housing.[19]

Manitoba had not elected aminority governmentsince1988,so the media coverage was focused on the PCs and the NDP.[20]In the final days of the campaign, the Manitoba government reported a surplus in the provincial budget worth $270 million.[21]
