I’m going to offer commentary on the @SKGov white paper. Page by page.
This is an #skpoli thread nobody asked for, nobody needs, yet somehow, we all deserve…
Come with me on this journey…

Imagining some bureaucrat sending back draft 3 “No, the Drawing the Line graphic needs to be BIGGER.”
Draft 4 “No, bigger than the photos.”
*** EDO ***
Draft 5: PERFECT.

Ok folks here we go!
Ah, yes, nothing like good intergovernmental relations like coming right out of the gate with phrases like “under the guise”. Let’s assume ill intent and set a combative tone right from the start.
Carry on….
Whoa! I can’t wait to see the “show your work” portion of this math exercise. This… feels like a made up number.
Table of Contents.
Fantastic job. That is a table of contents.
Ok next page is laying down some fairly hefty allegations and using strong language. I fail to see any cited sources or glimmer of anything vaguely resembling research, but when your graphic is your own tweet, I mean… 😅
Next page…
Jesus! Yeah, uhm…
Just curious if you feel the same for the indigenous share of resources, because Wall wasn’t a fan. In fact, he denied the SaskParty would ever review the formula.
So far this is the vibe but heavier on canola… but carry on. It’s our rightful destiny or whatever the hell that means…

This is our collective Oprah moment, people. We’ve all dealt with the Government of Saskatchewan.
Page 10… the end result undermines the development, you say?
*STARES AT THE SIS PROGRAM*

It’s a miracle! I think we found the point of what the feds have been doing.
