Manitoba budget battle over penal reform and Lyons gains
The Manitoba legislature grilled attorney general Sterling Lyon over a 4.7 million dollar departmental estimate amid clashes on penal institutions and rehabilitation programs. Opponents pressed for reform while Lyon defended work across departments, as Liberal and NDP critics argued over funding and mismanagement of Metro affairs. A faster pace ensued for municipal affairs estimates, with praise for the department’s handling and calls for broader grants. The session also adopted the Manitoba tartan and expanded debate on budget timing and peacekeeping costs.
