Manitoba Association of Crown Attorneys says it filed a grievance with the government back in April 2023 to address dangerously heavy caseloads carried by Crown attorneys.

The association says it has also lost attorneys recently to B.C. , Alberta and Saskatchewan due to better pay.

The surge in cases is being credited to a rise in crime, but also more complicated cases, inadequate staffing and stricter timelines for hearing criminal matters.
