From the Winnipeg Free Press–Manitoba Progressive Conservatives are promising help for victims of domestic violence and women’s shelters.
The Tories say, if they are re-elected Oct. 3, they will commit $5 million to expand domestic violence and sexual assault counselling services.
Tory cabinet minister Kevin Klein says another $5 million would be added to funding for women’s shelters across the province.
Klein made the announcement inside his campaign office in western Winnipeg, while outside, a small group of protesters denounced the Tory government.
