Taking the politics out of it, this highway has been a problem for generations now

It is critical modernize it to help open up the North

What will not work? Axing the gas tax whose funds go directly into infrastructure spending

Cut the PST rate/expansions instead

IN OTHER NEWS (that got buried):

This is partly who influences the Scott Moe gov policy, a religious group based outside

Our Premier celebrating a 'new' funding initiative (image 1)

The only problem? This is fed money unveiled by Justin Trudeau in a month ago (image 2)

Mr. Premier why were you not at the event last month and why are you pretending this is your initiative? Sad

'Conservative MPs accounted for 79% of the spending by [all] MPs, billing their office budgets for $426,283'

Looks like our FedCons and the prov Saskatchewan Party have one more thing in common: using our $$ for their personal pleasure.

We can do better.

Something to consider:

Canada has the lowest marginal effective tax rate in the G7.

So no, new businesses are not taxed into oblivion here.

That's the post.....that's it.

'carbon policy is going to be absolutely critical to maintain our standing on the world stage'

We're at the stage where industry is also demanding our leaders be proactive.

If not carbon pricing, then what? This is not the 1950's anymore. Action is required.

'According to Moe, the Sask. Party has a caucus management committee that can address “issues” between members of the party'

Perhaps the complainant did not feel safe in his own caucus? Was Harrison chair of the committee?

The end of an era is upon us.

This is the of Scott Moe where wealth flows out of the province to big corp shareholders and donors living elsewhere.

Meanwhile, folks here have seen stagnant wages, exploding prices, climbing taxes.

As Speaker Weekes said: 'Enough is Enough!'

“We know this is going to make such a huge difference in the lives of so many families here in Regina and across the province. As a gov we believe that every family deserves access to high-quality, inclusive child care.”

If only our Premier thought the same way.

Queen City Pride has barred the Saskatchewan Party from participating in this year's parade due to the SKP gov't passing Bill 137. The organization is also not holding a ceremony on June 1 at the legislature.

The SKP had a float last year with some members there.

'We also hold the unfortunate distinction of having the highest per capita emissions in Canada. Sask’s per capita emission is 55.9 tonnes of CO2e, more than triple the national average of 17.7 t per capita'

The Premier's friends and donors profit off the future of our kids.
