Yesterday, we put out a thread confronting Conservative party Leader Pierre Poilievre for his decision to join the Frontier Centre for an event taking place any time now in Winnipeg. One question we got was - what does this have to do with health care?
The answer is: A lot.

In the "2022 Health Status of Manitobans Report" released last month, Dr. Roussin states:
"[T]he health of people in Manitoba is not equal, and the gap in health between First Nations and all others people in Manitoba is, in fact, widening".
The MHC is appalled that @PierrePoilievre is joining the extremist, anti-vaccine and anti-science @FrontierCentre today in Winnipeg. We understand that he will not be taking questions.
