Manitoba ’s Opposition Progressive Conservatives are delaying passage of four bills at the legislature, prompting an angry response from a labour leader.
This year, the Tories have chosen four, including a bill that would extend the leave for seriously injured or ill workers to 27 weeks from 17 weeks. Kevin Rebeck, head of the Manitoba Federation of Labour, says he is “disgusted” that the Tories are delaying a change that would provide more job protection for injured workers.The Tories say it’s an issue of crowded classrooms, because the student population is growing and the NDP has put in limbo the construction of nine schools that the former Tory government was planning to build in partnership with the private sector.
