  1. Mr Pallister prefers austerity over lives.

    3 years ago he laid off hundreds of civil workers , including over 300 nurses so he could claim austerity, call an election and gain a majority mandate.

    Just another rich loser goodball playing the shell game with peoples lives.

    Hopefully there will come a day when goofballs like this are publicly shamed.

  2. The new movie, “Flakeheart” Brought to a theatre nowhere near you, bc they’re shutdown.

    Starring Brian Pallister as Kill’am Spineless.

    “We’re going to stop the flu, if it’s the last thing I do…LOCK…DOWNNNNN!!!”

  3. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO PUBLICLY REPORT ON THE NUMBER OF COVID CASES AND DEATHS IN MANITOBA LONG-TERM CARE FACILITIES, MR. PREMIER?

    B.C., Ontario, and Quebec publicly report such data. Why isn’t Manitoba? Do you have some truly awful figures you’re trying to hide, Mr. Premier?

  4. He’s blown his trust with the Manitoba citizenry by his ongoing and unnecessary cuts to the healthcare system before and during a once in a century deadly pandemic!

  5. Pallister is the reason why our numbers are so high. His do nothing attitude and disappearing act every Friday. Just worried about his bottom line instead of lives! Cut backs to medicine and education have made this one of the worst provinces to live in.

  6. please everyone on youtube stop using youtube its time for the will to act. youtube prevents change IRL

  7. He is saving lives, period! What reason do you think he would want to shut down the economy, to save lives, fools! Wear a mask social distance!
