Manitoba intros fixed election dates

Per the Winnipeg Free Press, Manitoba will now have fixed election dates. The next provincial election will be June 14, 2011.
Exception being that if there is widespread flooding, a vote could be postponed until the fall.
You could make a good argument that this makes things a lot more fair for opposition parties, who are no longer at the mercy of the ruling party and can properly prepare for an election.
