  • Manitoba Provincial Party Support and Leadership

    Manitoba Provincial Party Support and Leadership

    MANITOBA PROVINCIAL PARTY SUPPORT AND LEADERSHIP March 2021 Probe Research Omnibus Survey For More Key Findings Information: After becoming Manitoba's most popular political party in December, the NDP’s lead over the governing Progressive Conservatives continues to widen, according to a new Probe Research poll conducted for the Winnipeg Free Press. The opposition’s lead over the PCs province-wide has expanded to six percentage points. In Winnipeg, where many election campaigns are won or lost, the NDP has a 22-point advantage over the PCs. The NDP has gained much of its current strength from the province’s female voters (48% would now support the NDP), from younger Manitobans (46% of those under 35 favour the NDP) as well as from less affluent and more highly educated voters (48% among those earning less than $50,000 annually and 51% among those with completed post-secondary education). Seventeen per cent of all Manitobans surveyed are presently undecided. Scott MacKay Regionally, the PCs enjoy their greatest levels of support outside of Winnipeg (50% vs. 32% NDP). Within the President capital city itself, the governing party is now trailing in all regions of Winnipeg, including the southern suburbs. (204) 926-6565 [email protected] Party leadership is also now problematic for the PCs with almost two-thirds of the province's voters voicing strong (46%) or moderate (16%) criticism of the leadership of PC Premier Brian Pallister. Importantly, fully one in three Probe Research Inc. voters who cast PC ballots in the last provincial election (34%) now disapprove of the leadership of Premier 603 – 191 Lombard Ave.

    200 Anniversary of the Ontario Legislative Library P. 28 200

    Canadian eview V olume 39, No. 3 th 200 Anniversary of the Ontario Legislative Library p. 28 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/FALL 2016 Manitoba’s original Mace was carved out of the hub of a Red River cart wheel by a soldier with the Wolseley Expedition Force (sent out to deal with the Riel Rebellion in 1869). This Mace was used for a period of 13 years between March 15, 1871 and March 12, 1884. In December 1873, when a fire destroyed the first home of the Legislature, the Mace was the only object to survive the flames. It remains on display in the Speaker’s office to this day. Manitoba’s current gold-plated Mace debuted in 1884. Standing five feet tall and weighing 28 pounds, it repeats themes found on the original Mace. The head of the current Mace displays four emblems: the Rose, the Thistle, the Harp, and the Fleur-de-lis. These same emblems are found engraved on the staff of the Mace, with the exception of an Irish Shamrock replacing the Harp. On the top, a crown symbolizes the Monarch, while four beavers represent the province’s place as part of Canada. Finally, an orb and a cross represent the spiritual and religious aspects of Manitoba life. This Mace was made to celebrate the opening of the second Legislative building. The initials V.R., representing the reigning Monarch Queen Victoria, are engraved on its head. The Table Officers have a tradition of rubbing various symbols on the Mace with their robe sleeves while waiting for the Speaker’s Parade to start, in order to summon good luck for the sitting day.
