#Kinew

After stating last fall that three pending Manitoba megaprojects could wean this province off federal equalization payments within 10 years, Premier wab Kinew now says only a Port of Churchill expansion can transform the provincial economy.

Manitoba will ban youth from using social media and AI chatbots, Premier Wab Kinew announced on Saturday. The proposed law protecting youth from the harmful effects of social media will be the first of its kind in Canada.

Wab Kinew's proposal would only affect Manitoba while other efforts are being pursued that would adopt a ban across Canada.

Manitoba's premier is moving the needle a tick closer toward ditching the spring forward, fall back ritual, in a move that could usher in a "Prairie time zone."
