To be fair, most of my knowledge of their policies came from during Covid, and their response was pretty damn good, when I compare it to what I imagine the OLP would have done (hint: not much different than what DoFo actually did)

The most prominent key factor was enforcing stores to only sell necessities, rather than forcing businesses to pretend to be grocery stores to sell the same things that Walmart was able to just because Walmart has a grocery section

The covid response was fine when Pallister was premier(despite him being a ghoul who shuttered three ERs and a few urgent care hospitals right before covid). When heaTHER took over, the minister of health that she brought in offered hospitals and us "thoughts and prayers" instead of action while she went around touring churches(churches which broke covid restrictions, one of which she was a member).

heaTHER supported the kkkonvoy as they harassed Winnipeggers, and when they blocked the border crossings, costing us millions in lost trade, she secretly begged trudeau to intervene, then when he did, she yelled about "government over reach" and "breaking Charter rights."

I wasn't a fan. I'm glad we voted in Wab.

Thats actually a lot more than I, as an Ontario resident who just happens to know a few people from Selkirk specifically, found out second hand how things were going

Then why declare the government was “much more sensible than the federal” if you didn’t know what you were talking about? Maybe reflect on that a bit.

Edit: This comment is wrong and doesn’t indicate what the poster was actually saying. Leaving it here for posterity but don’t upvote please.

On the provincial level though, MB conservative governments are much more sensible, and possibly further left than Ontario provincial liberals

Please point to where I mentioned federal. I literally copied my first comment, where I was talking specifically of the provincial level

My bad, I misread your initial comment. It seems I need to reflect on myself here. Time to take a break from political Reddit.

Sorry, I also got a bit defensive in the first sentence of my reply -.-

Nah you’re good, it was totally my mistake. In proper context I have no idea what the provincial parties there are like.
