Scott Gillingham. Wab Kinew. A battle on the ice for hockey supremacy.
The Manitoba premier is set to face off against Winnipeg’s mayor on Nov. 30 to mark Winnipeg’s 150th anniversary.
Gillingham, councillors, and members of Winnipeg’s Public Service will hit the ice against Kinew, MLAs, and provincial staff in a friendly competition.
“I can’t promise the hockey will be pretty, but municipal government is about being scrappy and digging hard in the corners. We’re going to give it 110 per cent and stick to the game plan,” Gillingham said in a news release.
This matchup is meant to recreate a game from 50 years ago when then-mayor Stephen Juba and his City Fathers team battled former premier Edward Schreyer and his Golden Boys.
