An agency should shape and report their work only in accordance
with their publicly sponsored mandate. Fine monies should not guide an
institution designed for the public good.

Patient Records are not Third-party Property
We paid for the health care services. Now we want our records, please. Thank you. We will use them to promote our own health in partnership with the system and the various teams and divisions who must collaborate with us towards success. This is the 21st century model that Manitobans need, and deserve, without further delay.
Promote Health of Patients, not Health Care Bureaucracies
The alarming practice of decentralized administration
practiced by past governments has lead to a petite bourgeois of public health
care ‘servants’. They have gotten quite well-off planning health care
initiatives that never happen, or happen so poorly they need to be ‘managed’
all over again at great expense. We believe that a strong Health Care Ministry
manages the Health Care system for and around the health of the patients.
Successful Health Care is not measured by how much we spend (especially on
administrators), but by how well we spend to get the outcomes that we require
for our citizens.
One Education Model Fits No Child Best
The mythic ‘one-size-fits-all’ educational model of past
governments leaves every family poorly served in roughly the same amount. We
aim to reverse the effects of school systems developed for bureaucracies by
implementing student-centered learning systems. We cannot afford to fail our
children in their educational opportunities in order to pander solely to a
single-desk supplier of all the same educational choices.
Emergencies are not emergencies if they happen more than 20% of the time.
Realities and Emergencies tend to be confused by past
governments. Mismanagement of the water systems has exacerbated flood
conditions to obviously unnatural proportions. That is reality, not ‘an
emergency’. Poor weather conditions happen, a lot, and the economic impact
should be mitigated in advance, not in a tizzy. Past governments have used ‘the
sky is falling’ to soak Manitobans in the red ink of reliably incompetent
governance. We aim to change this mismanaged emergency system towards the
well-managed contingency system.
Member, and not Executive Driven
Why are the vast majority of politically active (or
inactive) Manitobans so upset about the actions of their preferred party?
Simple, their old party is controlled by a very small group of self-interested
persons instead of by the very large group of interested persons. Manitoba
United rejects pure central command and control, replacing its with real
responsibility imbued within the wider membership.
Reach Far, Set the Bar
Our legacy will be left to our children to manage. The
Export Raw Materials economy of the past must be replaced by the value-added
and low-import version of the future. Our children must be left opportunities
based on solid foundations, and not just for the few and the lucky who control raw
material export rights.
Humans within the equation, not outside of it.
All Environmental audits will be expanded to include the
socio-economic impact of key government decisions on the citizenry within their
environment. For instance, watershed drainage practices of the past will be
updated to include the down-stream affects on humans and ecosystems, which will
lead to a more balanced and responsible watershed management practice model.
Reach Inward, not Outward. Forward, not Backward.
Where other parties cling to Federal relationships from the
past, Manitoba United presents a stronger model of Provincial and Municipal
cooperation. Manitobans working with Manitobans building a better Manitoba, one
neighborhood at a time.
Leaders in Electoral Reform
We send our sons and daughters abroad to safeguard
democracy. We must be as bold at home as they are in the field, striving to
better the model for participation in effective self-government.
The Many, and not The Few
What is best for the widest possible concerns of Manitoba
citizens, and not the narrowest possible concerns of a party executive, shall
guide all actions of Manitoba United.
