The next Manitoba election is nearly a year away, but the governing NDP has already launched ads attacking the Opposition Conservatives.

The ads are running on television and in the mail denouncing Tory Leader Hugh McFadyen’s positions.

One ad claims McFadyen “would overturn water protection laws and allow E. coli and urine to pollute our rivers and lakes.”

Labour Minister Jennifer Howard said the ads are “an accurate portrayal of what the Opposition has said in the house and in public and will do if elected.”

Howard didn’t know how much the ad campaign cost.

The next provincial election will be held in October.
