Manitoba’s premier says the province will support the work of Indigenous groups looking into the feasibility of searching a landfill for the remains of two women believed to be the victims of an alleged Winnipeg serial killer.

Heather Stefanson promised provincial funding for the effort Friday, and said a government representative will join the Indigenous-led group looking at options and parameters for a potential search of the Prairie Green landfill.

Earlier this week, several Indigenous organizations criticized Winnipeg police for not searching Prairie Green landfill and wrote a letter to Ottawa to ask for the federal government to help in the search.

The Feds have since said it will fund a feasibility study on a potential search of the landfill, with Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Marc Miller saying the study would be part of an effort to help the victims' families find closure.
