NDP handily retains northern seat in byelection

Carol Sanders 5 minute read Tuesday, Jul. 21, 2026

Voters in The Pas-Kameesak stuck with the NDP — big time — in Tuesday’s byelection.

With all polls reporting, New Democrat Jennifer Flett received 74 per cent of the votes in the race to replace the late NDP MLA Amanda Lathlin. Flett, a former vice-chief and councillor for Opaskwayak Cree Nation, got a stronger mandate than the NDP received in the 2023 provincial election, when Lathlin received 67 per cent support.

Premier Wab Kinew welcomed Flett to the NDP caucus.

“She knows what families in her communities need, and I look forward to working with her to deliver better health care and more good jobs for The Pas-Kameesak,” he said in a release.

A foodborne parasite and government efficiency

A foodborne parasite and government efficiency

Editorial 4 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Week-long explosive diarrhea.

There. Now that we’ve got your attention, here’s a cautionary tale about red-tape reduction and public health.

Government regulation is often described by those who have to adhere to it as “red tape,” and governments often set out on red-tape reduction campaigns, based on the conjoined goals of freeing business from unnecessary regulation and freeing governments from having to pay to employ public servants to implement that regulation.

Reduction campaigns often begin by finding the most ludicrous example of government regulation in sight and characterizing it as typical of government rule-making. The fact that many government regulations keep us safe and healthy isn’t usually part of the red-tape discussion.

Port of Churchill sale to group of First Nations will happen: chief

Kristin Annable 3 minute read Monday, Sep. 12, 2016

THE PAS — The purchase of the Port of Churchill by a consortium of First Nations “will happen,” says Mathias Colomb First Nation Chief Arlen Dumas.

“We are about making a sound business decision and we are doing our due diligence — I can’t get into the specifics of it — but we are moving forward with the communities that we are partnering. This will happen,” Dumas said.

“We are in an arrangement and we are moving forward. We are still doing our due diligence, but it is going to happen. You just have to be patient.”

Omnitrax Canada began negotiating the deal to sell the Hudson Bay Railway and Port of Churchill to the consortium late last year. When the potential deal was announced in January both sides said they were confident the purchase of the port and railway would soon be complete.

Blood services: need 1-M new donors in next 5 years

Blood services: need 1-M new donors in next 5 years

Tiago Resko 4 minute read Yesterday at 7:05 AM CDT

Getting a tattoo or going out to a bar are common things to do when turning 18, but Saige Zdebiak’s first act of adulthood was donating blood.

“It was always kind of a goal of mine. I’ve always wanted to do it because my mom’s done it hundreds of times,” said the now-22-year-old while donating at Canadian Blood Services earlier this week.

Zdebiak needed a heart transplant when she was three and developed Lyme disease when she was 10. She gives back today so health-care workers can continue to help people the way they helped her.

She is one of 400,000 donors to Canadian Blood Services across the country — but it’s still not enough to meet the recent spike in demand.

The number of Indigenous inmates in prison is a problem — but Ottawa has no plan to fix it

The number of Indigenous inmates in prison is a problem — but Ottawa has no plan to fix it

Ryan Thorpe 2 minute read Thursday, Apr. 29, 2021

The number of Indigenous people being locked up in federal prisons is spiking despite overall declines in both incarceration and crime rates across the country.

Accounting for just five per cent of Canada's population, Indigenous people make up 30 per cent of the federal prison system's inmate population.

The crisis is particularly acute in the Prairies, where roughly 70 per cent of the people behind bars at Stony Mountain Institution north of Winnipeg are Indigenous.

Ryan Beardy, a former gang member and current justice advocate, mentor and freelance journalist, said that it was while he was incarcerated at Stony Mountain that he decided to begin speaking out about prison conditions in Canada.

Winnipeggers vote resounding ‘no’ on reopening Portage and Main

Winnipeggers vote resounding ‘no’ on reopening Portage and Main

Melissa Martin 6 minute read Wednesday, Oct. 24, 2018

It was one of the most divisive issues of the 2018 civic campaign, a public debate that was exhausting, bruising, stubborn.

Now, a key chapter in the Portage and Main saga is over. By a nearly 2-1 margin, Winnipeggers voted Wednesday against reopening the city's famous intersection to pedestrians. The final tally: 65 per cent "no" to 35 per cent "yes."

At Team Open's election-night party at Bailey's Lounge, news of the defeat was met with scattered jokes and tired, self-aware smiles. It is not the result advocates wanted — but it is the one they were prepared for, and expected.

"We knew it was a tough hill to climb," co-chairman Adam Dooley said. "Opinions were pretty entrenched. We did our best to try and move them, and tried to run a positive campaign. It's too bad we weren't able to persuade more people."
