Yes, there is something "unusual " when a sitting government pass legislation allowing them to create police forces via Order in Council and having sole power to appoint oversight commission personnel.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it must be....
“Children have a right to learn about this, to keep themselves safe. By not allowing sexual assault centres into schools, we are doing a disservice to kids and we are putting them at risk.”
Since #sask leads the nation in STI's, domestic violence, HIV etc this is very true.
This is what the @SaskParty
gov has been reduced to, hiding from the very folks they pretend to lead then make up stories about tens of thousands of letters supporting their flawed policy.
#Saskatchewan's gov't is going full on #rightwing nut. Endangering children by ordering that schools require parental consent before using chosen pronouns and different names at school.
The same gov't is attacking teachers publicly while negotiations for a new contract are underway.
The same gov't increased public funding for private religious schools (mostly fundamentalist #Christian) by 25%, public schools by 1%.
"Its being used as a political weapon/talking point to continue this divide between the fed government and the prov government...What we need to do is co-operate"
At stake is billions in extra costs to #sask and falling further behind the rest of the country and the world.
"Canadians are deeply disappointed in our conservative provincial premiers giving away our tax money earmarked for healthcare to private, for-profit companies who then charge us for care we’ve already paid for.
These #Conservative premiers seem to be trying to kill us for profit."
The clouds and wind rolled in bringing spectacular moody skies. And then the rain finally came. Pink gerbers show off the droplets. #thunderstorm, #clouds, #sask, #gerbers, #raindrops
"#Canada has routinely ranked near or at the top for subsidies for oil and gas as the O&G industry racks up record profits. The 5 largest companies made about $35b in profits in 2022."
Divert those same subsidies into #GreenEnergy and the game will be changed.
Per-student funding in #Sask has gone from first in in #cdnpoli 2012-13 to sixth. An increase of more than $400m would be needed to get back to just 12-13 levels. @PremierScottMoe offers 10% of that. this is #Education under the @SaskParty
Our children deserve better. #skpoli
