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 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)

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.

I’m happy to announce today that an NDP government will reverse years of Sask. Party cuts to school-based supports and will make children’s mental health a priority in Saskatchewan.

Scott Moe’s government has failed to support vulnerable students. I’ve heard from too many parents and teachers worried about how this pandemic is impacting their kids’ mental health. Young people have been through so much in the past months, and supports were already inadequate.
It’s way past time to invest in students and give them the support they need now and good skills for the future.
Under my leadership, an NDP government will invest $5 million to hire 50 mental health nurses to work in schools across Saskatchewan and an additional $5M to work...

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

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

It’s only fair that if you’ve overpaid for a service, you deserve a refund.

But the Sask Party thinks they should keep your money. They don’t want to return the money you’ve overpaid to SGI. #skpoli

They did the same thing with their cruel CERB clawbacks.

As @NicoleMRancourt says:
“This money is not the Sask. Party government’s money. This money is to be put forward to the residents of Saskatchewan to help get through this pandemic.”

They also want to keep the federal money that was meant to top up the pay of frontline health workers.

This has been a difficult year for so many Saskatchewan families. But even before the pandemic, people were feeling stretched and stressed and finding it harder to make ends meet.

Fortunately, we have the fiscal capacity right now to make life a bit more affordable. #skpoli
That's why today we’re committing that an NDP government will reduce auto insurance premiums in the province by 7% and provide every policyholder a $100 rebate. This is money that’s more useful in people’s pockets than it is sitting in a over-full reserve fund.
According to SGI’s latest financial reporting, the Crown is sitting on a significant surplus of funds beyond what’s needed to ensure rate stability and consistency. Now is the right time to ease the insurance burden on the people of Saskatchewan.
