WINNIPEG, Manitoba - Wab Kinew will soon be the first First Nations premier in Canadian history after voters in Manitoba elected a New Democratic Party government on Tuesday.
Kinew, 41, worked in Winnipeg as a television reporter, performed rap music and served as a university administrator before winning a seat in the Manitoba legislature in 2016. He became NDP leader a year later. "That is a testament to our province and country moving forward. Long way to go, but you cannot tell me that we haven't made progress."
Kinew said he will also press Trudeau on forming a national health-care strategy to prevent provinces from competing to attract staffing.
