The @PremierScottMoe gov apparently subsidizing @HouseGOP and @SenateGOP with OUR taxpayers $$ while pleading poverty for #Sask #Healthcare and #Education needs.

This should be bigger news. Right @MMandryk @AHiddyCBC @JeremySimes @AlexanderQuon @MickeyDjuric

Lori Carr should stick to playing mobile games instead of pretending to care about people.

Poilievre says he'd pass a law that overrides a Charter right. That would be a first for a PM | CBC News Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre announced a politically groundbreaking promise to become the first prime minister to invoke the notwithstanding clause.

It's interesting that a central Poilievre campaign promise is now "I would override the charter of rights and freedoms" www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I will say this again (again & again), have the NDP established a list of services/contracts/companies that the Sask Party have used outside of the province/Canada, that could be sourced within Saskatchewan? And are these companies donors to the SP? Would like to see a laundry list published.

Opposition riled up by Harper consulting contract Daily Leg Update: NDP Critic Aleana Young roasts government over contract with former Prime Minister Stephen Harper

The NDP roasted the government in Question Period over the contract with Calgary-based consulting firm Harper & Associates. In a news release NDP pointed to the firm billing the province for $240,000 annually, or $840,000 since 2019.

Great gig if you can get it!

Pierre Poilievre is engaging in blatant misinformation.
Mark Carney will be debating in French. He is not participating in an event held by TVA because of the outrageous requirement of a $70,000 fee to participate.
Facts matter

So unless the Canadian government agrees to let daycares use govt funds to run for-profit businesses, the Saskparty won't sign off. This means many people (mostly women) can't afford to work. This greedy neoliberal govt is acting like petulant children. Private businesses don't deserve public funds.

That looks amazing!

How to Raise a Coward If you want to raise a fascist, and I know you’re thinking why would anyone want to raise a fascist, but there are people for whom this is the goal.

I am really impressed by Gould, and I think she will be a great future leader. Carney's economic knowledge and experience make him a more appropriate candidate for these times. All four came across as solid adult candidates willing to work for Canada and Canadians.

Ugh. Feel better soon! And yes, Bradbury was a genius!

I remember watching that game at my small-town SK school also! It was so exciting!

Welp.

There goes my plan to switch our business’ online payment program to shopify. And here I was excited to use a CDN company.

Because the familiar phrase "hot air rises" originally was misheard. It's actually "cat hair rises"!

I have found that sleeping in a silk bonnet helps tremendously.

Friendship breakups are so, so hard. The feelings of betrayal and bewilderment go deep. I hope you can find ways to give yourself grace and love as you process the grief.

Plastic surgery and poor. Hmm.

That looks delicious! So pretty!

Me too, please!

That looks even more delicious than the traditional crust!

How fascinating! I knew there were an ever-increasing number of Tagalog speakers here, but had not realized the current size of that community.

My favourite! Is that a chocolate crumb crust?

I look forward to my one daily cup of black coffee, made with locally roasted, fresh-ground Rampage Riot.

I did! We shared a home town so Len Thompson was a local legend. I had never seen the video, though. Thanks for that!

Thanks! I wonder if more of the NYT puzzles also live elsewhere. I gifted myself a subscription to the puzzles only several months ago and will not review when it comes due, much as I enjoy some of the word games very much.

I wish I had that kind of insight into Public SB candidates in Saskatoon. Everything I have read is quite generic and I have not seen obvious red flags in my ward.

The final count in Saskatchewan is in! Here's a cartogram of the 2024 results by riding.
