2023 Manitoba general election

(Redirected from 43rd Manitoba general election)

The 2023 Manitoba general election was held on October 3, 2023, to elect 57 members to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba. The incumbent Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba, led by Premier of Manitoba Heather Stefanson, had attempted to win a third term in government, having previously won the 2016 and 2019 elections under the leadership of Brian Pallister. The New Democratic Party of Manitoba, led by Wab Kinew, formed a majority government, defeating the two-term Progressive Conservative government. Following the election, Kinew became the first First Nations person to become premier of a Canadian province.

Background

edit

Under Manitoba's Elections 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 under first-past-the-post voting.

On August 10, 2021, incumbent premier Brian Pallister announced that he would not seek re-election and resigned shortly after. Members of the Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba elected Heather Stefanson to succeed Premier Kelvin 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, and parental 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 Lamont led the Liberals and Janine Gibson led the Green Party, having been elected leader in March.

The PCs promoted the film industry in the province and in 2022 helped WestJet launch direct flights from Los Angeles to Winnipeg.[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 the murdered Indigenous women 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 a minority government since 1988, 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]

Results

edit

Results were formally declared on October 3, the night of the election.[39] The NDP only finished four percentage points ahead of the Tories on the popular vote. However, they dominated Winnipeg, taking all but three seats in the capital.[40] Eight members of Stefanson's cabinet were defeated, all in Winnipeg-based ridings.[41] Stefanson herself was nearly defeated in her historically safe seat of Tuxedo, surviving by less than three percentage points.[42]
