WINNIPEG – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has met with Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew in Winnipeg to announce a deal to infuse $633 million into the provincial health care system.

The governments say the funding will support Manitoba’s goal to hire 400 more doctors, 300 nurses, 200 paramedics and 100 home care workers.

The men are also working to remove barriers for internationally trained doctors and health professionals to practise in the province.

Trudeau and Kinew also discussed early learning and child care, reconciliation and expanding the low carbon economy.
