Manitoba Legislature Opens First Session of 28th Legislature
The Manitoba Legislature opened on Monday December 5 1966 with debate on a permanent Speaker. James Bilton of Swan River was nominated for Speaker. Premier Duff Roblin stressed future resolutions on the issue. The Two Speeches from the Throne highlighted agricultural gains, northern resource development, education, and tax policy. The creation of a new Tourism and Recreation Department and hydro and water projects were noted, alongside rising hospital costs and fiscal strains from federal provincial relations.
