NDP Win Cements Kinew As 1st First Nations Premier In Manitoba History

"New Democrats emerge with enough seats to form majority government".

"The NDP sailed to victory Tuesday night with a solid win that cements leader Wab Kinew as Manitoba's first First Nations premier and also nets the party enough seats to form a majority government.

"This is a great victory for all of us in Manitoba," Kinew said to thunderous applause at NDP campaign headquarters Tuesday night, after leading his party to a win in Fort Rouge.

"We can do amazing things when we stand together as one province."

Kinew's win makes Manitoba the first Canadian province to elect a First Nations premier."
