Manitoba's provincial Tories fail to support Kelowna Accord

Kevin Lamoureux and I tried to get an all-party resolution through the Manitoba Legislature to provide support for the Kelowna Accord, and support for aboriginal people in Canada.

The NDP were ready to extend the hours of the session to get this resultion, but the provincial Tories refused. They had every excuse in the book, but the bottom line is they failed to stand up and join the other parties in a resolution to the federal government urging support for the Kelowna Accord.
