A preventable tragedy: Premier Wab Kinew talks about the state of Manitoba's health-care system

  • Summary

  • In CBC Radio's monthly interview with Premier Wab Kinew, we tackle the heartbreaking news of another death in the emergency department at Health Sciences Centre. A middle-aged man died after waiting for hours for care, a tragic echo of the 2008 death of Brian Sinclair. Despite changes to the system meant to prevent such situations, there have been at least four deaths of people waiting in Winnipeg ERs over the past two years. Kinew talks about what went wrong, the steps being taken to address this crisis, and the investigation into the latest critical incident.
