Saskatchewan’s outdated Election Act allows corporations, unions, and individuals (even those outside the province) to make unlimited donations to our province’s political parties.
Since 2007, the Saskatchewan Party has taken in over $19 million in corporate donations, many from companies outside of Saskatchewan.
The federal government and the provinces of: Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec and Nova Scotia have moved to limit this influence and level the playing field by banning corporate and union donations to political parties.
The NDP plan will ban corporate and union donations, and bring in a cap on contributions and ensure that only individuals who are residents of Saskatchewan can donate.
