No Decision In Election Proposals
Premier Ed Schreyer said no decision had been made on a plan to freeze Manitoba municipal elections for a year while awaiting a boundaries commission report. He indicated the NDP government would likely push legislation in 1971 to redraw municipal boundaries, especially in Greater Winnipeg, arguing elections soon after would yield eight month terms. Municipal elections occur yearly in Manitoba.
