Premier Kelvin Goertzen made a few announcements at a press conference this morning.

The third session of the 42nd legislature reconvenes on October 6th at 1:30 p.m. 

Goertzen announced that five bills, including bill 64 will be withdrawn when they reconvene.

“As well on that day, bits of the Budget Implementation and Tax Statutes Amendment Act will be tabled. Looking and hoping to pass Bill 72 which is the Disability Support Act which is brought forward by Deputy Premier Rochelle Squires, so looking for support from the opposition to pass that.”

Also announced, was that a meeting between all premiers that was supposed to take place in Winnipeg in early October will now be virtual, and hosted by BC instead of Manitoba.

Goertzen didn't make any announcements related to the Progressive Conservative leadership race after yesterday's deadline passed.
