Tonight is a historic night for Manitobans and every Canadian.

A huge congratulations to @WabKinew.

The first First Nations Premier elected in Canada. You've inspired generations of Indigenous youth to come.

With the Manitoba NDP, the future is looking brighter. 🧡

“Mayor Chow just ran on a platform to save Ontario Place. Mr. Ford is politically weak. It’s time for a standoff. The city has political leverage if its planners and politicians have the guts to stand up and claim it. Planners: Just say no” #topoli #onpoli https://t.co/rWLIz3q789

She’s a published author and holds a Ph.D. in animal cognition. She’s also utterly embarrassed to admit the talent she most desires to possess. Get to know @DanaLChurch, author of THE BEEKEEPERS, in this insightful Q&A. https://t.co/wGGMPSH7Fi
