For months now, Manitoba NDP Leader Wab Kinew has been using the same, hokey, sing-songy line to introduce himself to crowds in the province.

He used it to kick off last week’s televised leaders’ debate, while dressed in the royal blue suit and white pocket square that he reserves for the big days – drawing out the delivery to emphasize the corny pun.

He used it to open a bold, August speech when he accused the governing Progressive Conservatives of racism to try to scare Manitobans from voting for him. (The Anishinaabe former broadcaster donned the elegant blue suit and white pocket square on that day, too.)

And Mr. Kinew invoked it when launching his campaign in downtown Winnipeg in early September. Ensconced in his royal blue armour, he smiled, then slowly drawled: “How do you do? I’m Wab Kinew.”
