Health care focus of NDP byelection rally – Winnipeg Free Press
With Grace Hospital as their backdrop, Manitoba’s official Opposition held a weekend rally in Kirkfield Park to harp on the health-care staffing crisis under the current government — the NDP’s strategy to win over voters in the upcoming byelection.
Front-line workers, labor organizers and NDP MLAs were among more than 60 people who gathered outside the health-care facility on Sunday.
They chanted “Save the Grace!” in unison, before canvassing area residents for the party’s candidate in the constituency that encompasses Sturgeon Creek and nearby neighborhoods, including Westwood and Silver Heights.
