In pre-budget tradition, Minister of Finance Greg Dewar was presented with a pair of shoes on the steps of the Manitoba Legislative Building today...but this pair from Make Poverty History were a used by a Manitoban living in poverty, a way of encouraging Minister Dewar to "walk a mile" in the shoes of low-income Manitobans and focus on housing issues in this year's provincial budget. Minister Dewar thanked those participating in the rally for encouraging the kind of work our government continues to do for poverty reduction.
