MOVING SASKATCHEWAN FORWARD
During the fall session of the legislature, our government took action to ensure Saskatchewan continues to move forward.
- We promised that within four years no one will have to wait longer than 3 months for surgery.
- Our kids will soon receive further protection from second-hand smoke; thanks to legislation we introduced which bans smoking inside vehicles with children under the age of 16 in them.
- Effective January 1, 2010, talking on a cell phone or texting while driving will be against the law.
- We introduced legislation that will better protect consumers from artificially-high ticket prices for concerts and other events.
We also took action to address the challenge of lower potash revenues. In the end, the budget remains balanced, historic tax cuts will stay in place and the provincial debt has been reduced by 40 per cent, all within two years.
