Gerrard seen as Liberal leader candidate in Manitoba race

The Liberal Party of Manitoba hopes pediatric doctor Jon Gerrard will win the leadership on October 17 after Ginny Hasselfield steps down. Gerrard, 60, has a mixed political past including a stint as Secretary of State for Western Economic Diversification and Science, Research and Development, and later defeat in 1998. He faces Gerry Fontaine, a former Sagkeeng First Nation chief, with two dissenters now allied to him. The piece notes discontent over Gerrard's role in patronage in Selkirk-Interlake and ongoing AECL cutbacks affecting Pinawa.
