The NDP is accusing the Moe government of being ill-prepared for the outbreak of COVID-19 in the province.
The accusations come after NDP officials say they obtained documents proving former Minister of Health Jim Reiter lied about the province having a plan.
NDP Health Critic Vicki Mowat says the incident took place exactly one year ago.
“On March 10
th of last year, we asked Minister Reiter about his plan to address COVID-19. He said that he had a plan, and he accused us of fearmongering,” said Mowat. “He released his plan the next day, one year ago today, to show us just how prepared he was, but the documents we’ve received show that was lie.”
