Manitoba's child poverty record shocks national rankings
The Social Planning Council labels Manitoba the national child poverty capital for the second time in a decade with 26.5 percent of children in poverty based on 1996 census data. 72,000 Manitoba children lived in poverty, up 9,000 from 1995, while social services demand and minimum wage debates shape policy implications.
