On Friday, September 27, thousands of young activists gathered at the steps of the Manitoba Legislature to strike for climate action. In the last week of September, an estimated 7.6 million people around the world, representing 185 different countries, skipped school and work and took to the streets.

It’s that time of year when the temperature cools, the harvest comes in, and communities gather for fall suppers. Fall suppers are a great way to meet your neighbours—and also enjoy a fantastic meal.

Île-des-Chênes resident Erin McGee has had a busy year campaigning for the New Democratic Party. The NDP candidate for Provencher wrapped up her provincial campaign for La Verendrye on September 10 and began campaigning for the federal party the very next day, when the election was called.

Wayne Sturby, Provencher’s candidate for the People’s Party of Canada (PPC), lives in Lorette with his wife Margaret. Together they are the proud parents to two children and grandparents to five.

For the past thirty years, Janine Gibson has been advocating for organic farming, but this federal election season she wants to advocate for all Manitobans on behalf of the Green Party of Canada.

First elected as an MP for the Conservative Party of Canada in the 2013 byelection, Ted Falk has served the people of Provencher for about six years. Since that time, Falk has served as Vice-Chair of the Justice and Human Rights Committee and Deputy Shadow Minister of Employment, Workforce, Development and Labour. He’s also held positions on the Natural Resources, Public Safety, National Security Committee, Public Accounts, and Canadian Heritage committees.
