Heather Stefanson is the first woman to be premier in the history of Manitoba, after winning the Progressive Conservative leadership race after the departure of Brian Pallister.
But her victory is being challenged by runner-up Shelly Glover, who says there were irregularities in the vote and she is the rightful premier.
Winnipeg Sun columnist Josh Aldrich joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss some of the problems with the leadership vote, why Glover feels she has won, and what Stefanson’s first priorities will be as premier.
