Today @WotherspoonT and I announced a plan to create jobs in key industries and meet Saskatchewan's energy needs through geothermal power.

assiniboiatimes.ca/news/ndp-will-…
Saskatchewan families were feeling stretched and stressed before the pandemic, and life has only gotten harder. Especially hard hit are workers in oil and gas and related skilled trades. We need to work with industry to get people back on the job.
Emerging technologies, including deep well geothermal

pipelinenews.ca/features/produ…
and closed-loop geothermal power, offer an incredible opportunity to create new jobs as we meet our energy needs.

cbc.ca/news/canada/no…
Geothermal is the perfect renewable, dispatchable compliment to the intermittent power of solar and wind, a baseload backbone for our Renew Saskatchewan plan.

thestarphoenix.com/news/local-new…
As @kevin_krausert of @theCAODC says “Geothermal energy provides an opportunity to have Canada’s leading drillers and equipment deliver reliable – and renewable – zero-carbon energy.”

theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
As part of our commitment to 100% carbon-free electricity in Saskatchewan by 2050, and to creating 1000s of new jobs for struggling workers, we'll work with SaskPower on a major expansion of geothermal power production.
It's all about putting the best of Saskatchewan to work: our Crowns, our natural resources, our spirit of innovation and our skilled workers.

It's all about putting people first.

Today Premier Moe gave a State of the Province address that completely ignored the health crisis that his government created.

The state of our province today is that Saskatchewan has the highest active case rate and the lowest vaccination rate in the country.
🧵[1/6] #skpoli
The state of our province today is that ICU patients are being medevac’d to Ontario while the Armed Forces are being flown in to provide care.

The state of our province is that more than 800 people have died from COVID, including 117 people lost in October alone.
🧵[2/6] #skpoli
All of this is happening because Scott Moe is putting politics ahead of Saskatchewan people’s lives, and all of this was ignored in Scott Moe’s address today.

Last night’s SK docs town hall had some hard truths to share. 🧵

We learned the devastating news that 3 children under 12 have died from COVID-19 in the province.

At 16% of the total child deaths in the country, this is by far the worst rate in Canada.
Cases and hospitalizations among kids have spiked dramatically since the SK Party sent kids back to school with no provincial public health measures.

We have the second lowest percentage of the eligible population (>12) vaccinated, the lowest overall population vaccination rate.
Sask continues to lead the country in cases and death rates last 14 days and test positivity is high and not declining.

Despite Moe claiming to the contrary, it was starkly stated:"SK is NOT in decline and rate of case production remains HIGH.”

Shortstaffed. Crowded. Crumbling infrastructure. Four residents to a room.

There needs to be an inquiry into Extendicare Parkside long-term care home. Now.

Almost every single resident and staff member at Parkside has tested positive for #COVID19SK. Many have died. (1/7)
And let’s be clear: the conditions that caused this didn’t come out of nowhere.

Workers, residents, and family members have been pointing out the failure of the Sask. Party government to address urgent needs and dangerous conditions for a long time. (2/7)
The issues at Parkside have been → years ← in the making.

Let’s look at the government’s own CEO Tour Reports of this facility, starting back in 2013. (3/7)

❗ WARNING: LONG THREAD, but it's important ❗ In 2017, the #SaskParty cut #STC, leaving thousands of people across our province stranded. 🚌

Since then, I've heard so many stories from folks who have been left in bad situations because of this dangerous cut: (1/6)
🏥 seniors who can't get to medical appointments
👍 rural and Northern people who are forced to hitchhike
🚗 low-income folks who struggle to afford a car
🌾 farmers who can't get parts sent out (2/6)
♿ people with disabilities who lost their independence
🚌 small businesses that can't get affordable shipping
🏫 young people away for school who can't get home #sasked (3/6)

Scott Moe has shown us he can't be trusted. But don't take it from me...just look at his record. During the last #skpoli election, the Sask Party promised there would be no cuts or sell-offs. But when the election was over, they:

➡️ cut $54 million from classrooms (1/4) #sasked
➡️ cut $25 million from universities
➡️ cut 90 healthcare workers in #YXE & #YQR
➡️ sold off STC, leaving thousands stranded
➡️ had dozens of meetings to try to sell SaskTel and SGI
➡️ and much more* (2/4)
We don't have to accept a government that says one thing and does another. It's time to stop Scott Moe's dangerous cuts and choose a government that invests in people.

It's time for change, Saskatchewan. 🛑✂️🛑✂️🛑 (3/4)

WARNING - long thread. But as a doctor, I care deeply about health care, and I have something to say.

#skpoli #healthcare #NDP2020
People in Saskatchewan have a very clear choice in front of them: Four more years of deep cuts that hurt people, or an NDP government that will put people first by making the investments a full recovery depends on.
Cuts and neglect, or investments in people. And this choice couldn’t be clearer when we think about our rural healthcare.
