- Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew, along with the rest of his new cabinet, were sworn in on Wednesday morning.
Kinew, who made history on Oct. 3 with the Manitoba NDP’s election victory, became the first provincial premier of First Nations descent.
Lt.-Gov. Anita Neville conducted the swearing-in ceremony, held at The Leaf in Winnipeg’s Assiniboine Park, and included performances by the Norman Chief Memorial Dancers and Dakota Hotain Singers as part of a tribute to Manitoba’s Indigenous nations.
Retired senator Murray Sinclair spoke at the event and described Kinew’s election as an example of reconciliation in action.
“This event that we are participating in… really is Manitoba’s true act of reconciliation and I want you to think of it that way,” Sinclair said.

I'm moving to Manitoba if he fixes Healthcare ..Conservitives can go screw.
I remember working the bingo halls when i was a kid, i can appreciate that joke.
I oppose all new taxes
That's a big win. Curious how first Nations feel about Palestine....being of similar fates from the British.
Ok.. I'll say it.. elephant in the room.. He is the only the first because is half white. His name is very native and he takes after his dad, sure, but he is half white. Not a full blood native. Can't ignore that. But i guess he looks native enough
Dont care what his heritage is, you have DUI's and criminal charges, you shouldn't be leading a province. Time will tell.
DUI's are part of his heritage, how dare you!
People make mistakes and this is no reflection as to how you will run the province. Stop crying and go back to your basement.
Dont lie..you do care that he's indigenous.. that's your whole argument.
He paid his dues.
Wouldn't you want leniency ?
Racism is hard to hide.
@Redact63Lluks And pedophilia and serial killers are part of yours..
@@stoptheplanet962 he was elected not because of merit but because he is a Kinew. Those who voted for him aren't voting for his qualities of accomplishment. They're voting for him for his race, so you like them are the racists.
Bad move he'll prove to be a loser like all of them.
A wake up call first nation more in politics for their land in Canada. Look at what Palestinians being treated in their home land today.
.
Yeah they almost unanimously elected Hamas to be their government. Hamas who stores thousands of pounds of bombs in schools and hospitals and is so incompetent they just blew one up on accident.
Keep your word and promises that got you here!!!! Your party is not looking great
NDP will always screw a province. Manitoba will be bankrupt
