Northern Manitoba’s mobile MRI machine has made it to Thompson.

Thompson’s MLA Eric Redhead delivered the machine to the city yesterday.

This equipment was promised last fall by the NDP and was part of the 2025 provincial budget.

Thompson and The Pas will share this mobile unit, bringing health care closer to home for residents here in the north and reducing wait times for MRI testing.

There’s no word yet on when the first appointments will take place.
