Manitoba is the first province to sign on to a federal program, that will see one-time risk payments provided to front-line workers who are keeping the province rolling, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Premier Brian Pallister says about 120 million dollars will be availble to those workers, and details on eligibility and payment amounts are being worked out.
The premier says these workers deserve our gratitude, as they have made major personal and professional sacrifices, in order to keep Manitoba operating.
