Saskatchewan New Democratic Party Leader Ryan Meili released his election platform today, offering the people of Saskatchewan a clear choice — a plan that makes the crucial investments in health care, education and job creation that we need now, or four more years of Scott Moe’s dangerous cuts that hurt families and leave us further behind.
“Deep cuts that hurt people and our economy are a bad idea at any time, but during a pandemic they are downright dangerous,” said Meili. “We know that across Saskatchewan, communities are pulling together to fight COVID-19, but Scott Moe has chosen a path that will make life tougher for families. It doesn’t have to be that way. The people of Saskatchewan have a choice. They can choose an NDP government that puts people first.”
Ryan Meili’s platform includes:
Stronger health care for you and your family
Safer schools and smaller classes
Good jobs and a more affordable quality of life
Meili also committed to fixing the wild west of Saskatchewan’s electoral financing laws, ensuring that decisions are not being made by out-of-province donors. “This is about trust. It’s time to get big money out of our politics, by putting an end to corporate and union political donations,” said Meili. “The years of the Sask. Party’s backroom deals and broken promises are over.”
The platform documents are fully costed and have been reviewed by an economist who has signed off on the financial measures.
