Manitoba Legislature Edge Back With May Session Plans
Legislature could return mid May to debate a promised balanced budget bill and appoint Cabinet ministers. NDP led by Gary Doer failed to hinge the election on health care despite support from unions. Health Minister Jim McCrae won with 4460 votes over Derry Decter 2785. Roblin Russell PC Len Derkach led with 4664, far ahead of NDP Fred Embryk 2685. Liberal Neil Stewart totaled 1229. Leader Paul Edwards lost his seat as the NDP gained seats and official party status dropped to three.
