Mr. Speaker, it gives me a great deal of pleasure today to stand and congratulate Premier Gary Filmon of the Manitoba Progressive Conservative Party on his third decisive victory last night. Premier Filmon captured 33 seats, the New Democrats 22 and the Liberals only 3.
The Manitoba provincial Liberals campaigned on a platform using a copycat provincial Liberal red book. I am proud to say that the general electorate discovered the reality of the provincial red book and sent them a strong message saying that they wanted no part of it.
We have discovered the reality of the federal Liberal red book which is amounting to broken promises. This is a message to the
Liberal Party that it should heed that what happened in Manitoba is about to happen in the next federal election.
The PC party is back, alive and well. I welcome everyone to come to Hull this weekend to see our 1,500 delegates in action.
