Manitoba’s 43rd general election was held on Oct. 3 in 57 electoral districts across the province.

Wab Kinew, leader of the provincial New Democratic Party, became the province’s first First Nations premier — and the first First Nations provincial premier in Canada — after leading his party to a resounding victory over the Progressive Conservative Party of Manitoba, led by Heather Stefanson.

The final seat tally was:

• NDP — 34

• PC — 22

• Lib. — 1

Both Stefanson and the Manitoba Liberal Party’s Dougald Lamont resigned as leaders of their parties as results became apparent on election night.
