Manitoba politics tainted by patronage claims across parties
The piece argues that PCs NDP and Liberals all practice political patronage. It critiques Liberal leader Paul Edwards and NDP leader Gary Doer for seeking elections while Premier Gary Filmon avoids risk. It notes Liberal ad campaigns, potential future court appointments for Edwards, and contrasts former leaders Campbell and Asper with Carstairs Senate appointment, while defending patronage as a standard in parliamentary systems.
