🧵 A surprising discovery as a new MLA is how little information we get from the Sask Party government. I get we won’t get cabinet discussions disclosed; but in regards to COVID & public health 98% of the time we get the same info as the public and media, at the same time -
This means that advocacy I do, is based on what ‘real people’ share. It also means I can’t verify with any gov organizations. In essence, a lot can be and is dismissed as “hearsay”.

Small biz thread:
I own and operate a small (four employee) biz. I am lucky. We can stay open, are staying safe, and are staying solvent.
Lots of my colleagues and friends aren’t. My husband’s business is shut down.
Saying that we’re all in this together is inaccurate.
Some of us are “fine”, some aren’t going to be able to reopen. Some are big, some are smaller. But all are important.
99% (ACTUAL number) of biz in SK are small.
Everyone is going to need some help whether it’s financial, guidance, or mental health.
