The leader of the official opposition in Manitoba says he has tested positive for COVID-19.
In a Twitter post, Wab Kinew says that he is double-vaccinated, his symptoms are mild, and his wife and children are doing well.
Kinew also said he is lucky to have a place to self-isolate, and that he plans to participate virtually in this week's throne speech and the fall legislature sitting.
Earlier today I tested positive for COVID-19.

I figured I’d let folks know why I’ll be participating in the upcoming legislative session virtually.
