WINNIPEG — Manitoba's Progressive Conservatives came under fire Monday for taking out a newspaper ad that highlights, in part, the province's decision to not search a landfill for the remains of two Indigenous women.
The full-page ad, on Saturday in the Winnipeg Free Press, touts the governing Tories' promises on a few issues including tax cuts and violent crime. On the decision to not search the Prairie Green Landfill, the words"Stand Firm" appear in large text. In smaller font is the phrase:"For health and safety reasons, the answer on the landfill dig just has to be no."
"It came to my attention last night when I was reading it, and it just seemed on top of being heartless, that it was cruel." Manitoba Justice Minister Kelvin Goertzen said the Tories took out the ad because the public and the media continue to have questions about why the provincial government refused to conduct the search.
The remains of Morgan Harris and Marcedes Myran are believed to have been dumped in the Prairie Green Landfill, a private operation north of Winnipeg, last year.
