Winnipeg mayoral election campaign

Overview

The Winnipeg mayoral election campaign has seen an expansion of the candidate field and increased pressure from advocacy groups. Brad Gross joined the race as the 11th candidate, campaigning on platforms of road repair, public safety, and a pause on new bike-lane projects.

Concurrently, a coalition of environmental and community organizations, led by the Climate Reality Project Canada, released the ‘People’s Climate Mandate.’ This 10-point plan urges candidates to commit to policies such as funding existing climate action plans, improving transit, and addressing extreme heat through new bylaws. The coalition intends to publish candidate responses to these priorities following a survey of the registered field.
