Since most Liberal MPs have never experienced a minority Parliament before, it’s expected the retreat will focus heavily on the challenges that will bring

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is reviving his practice of holding periodic cabinet retreats outside the nation’s capital — an exercise in regional outreach that his office maintains is worth the added cost of ferrying ministers around the country.

Manitoba, where the Liberals lost three of six seats, is somewhat friendlier territory. The province’s premier, Brian Pallister, has signalled a willingness to try to bridge the divide between the federal government and his fellow conservative Prairie premiers. “We are also committed to listening to and working closely with Canadians in the Prairies to address their specific concerns.”

Among the issues ministers are expected to discuss during the Winnipeg retreat is what the government calls “the challenges of an uncertain world” — a timely topic as the country tries to come to grips with Iran’s admission that it accidentally shot down a Ukrainian passenger jet last week. The crash killed all 176 people on board, including 57 Canadian citizens and 29 permanent residents.

Really not Good

I am glad he is not coming any further, he can stay to hell away from Alberta as far as I am concerned

Let’s take the whole band in the road at our expense! Fire up the jets. Not like they have perfectly good offices, meeting facilities and security in Ottawa. 🤦‍♂️

Didn’t they just get off of Christmas Holidays Does he EVER work

The problem with the libs is that they are always meeting instead of actually doing something. The west is tired of meetings, we want some concrete actions taken.

LOL

Another useless venture, by a useless group of people!

Better bring your parkas, global warming hasn't made it way here like your carbon tax has(and the fact liberals are thin skinned).

Sounds like a party to me.

Uh guys... I know you need to use small baby steps with Trudeau, but Canada extends a tad farther west than Winnipeg...

can this government actually do work without having to go on a retreat&work in their offices,big hint western Canadians hate this kind of stuff more money wasted to go on a work retreat,ridiculous,your running a huge deficit Conserve money,the lack of fiscal responsibility

That's high appropriate since Canada for Liberals has always ended in Winnipeg

Feds Giving $25K To Families Of Canadian Victims Killed In Iran Plane DowningFeds giving $25K to families of Canadian victims killed in Iran plane downing cdnpoli I lose a loved one overseas I foot the bill..this compensation is pure political grandstanding As sad it is, this should be Iran footing the bill to transport deceased and funeral cost. This is the 1st “payout” Trudeau has done that I agree with. Yes Iran should be paying, & they will, but that won’t happen today. Iran is holding bodies as collateral. Last thing victim families need to deal with is financing funerals, some are entire families.

Trudeau announces $25K for families of Canadian PS752 victimsPrime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced Ottawa will pay $25,000 in compensation for each of the Canadian victims of the downed Ukrainian airline. Wow that’s so sweet of him, going to cost him a lot from his personal finances. Does that mean pushover JustinTrudeau isn’t getting anything from his “demand” from Iran lol I need about $25000 for pain and suffering living in Canada under the liberal govt I have no love whatsoever for Trudeau. I think he’s driving this country down a steep hill without any brakes. But this is a good thing to do for fellow Canadians. Despite differing opinions about the tragedy, these people are hurting and this will hopefully ease the burden.
