The ads and billboards sparked backlash in Indigenous communities and beyond, with some calling the decision to campaign on the stance of not searching the landfill insensitive
Manitoba PC Leader Heather Stefanson speaks to the media surrounded by Progressive Conservative candidates at the PC Party campaign office, the day before the Manitoba provincial election in Winnipeg on Oct. 2.
The move sparked backlash in Indigenous communities and beyond, with some calling the decision to campaign on the stance of not searching the landfill insensitive."My heart goes out to those families and those individuals. We want to prevent this from happening in the future," she said. When asked by a reporter whose idea it was to put up the billboard, Stefanson wouldn't answer but said she trusts her campaign team.
The remains of Harris and Myran are believed to have been dumped in the Prairie Green Landfill, a private operation north of Winnipeg, last year. Kinew said if the NDP is elected Tuesday, he would add beds to hospitals in Winnipeg and Brandon that have seen long wait times in emergency rooms.
