Fall Session Wrap-Up
With the short but important fall session of the legislature behind us, our thoughts now turn to what is truly important: time with friends and family over the holidays. It reminds all of us of why we chose a life of public service. While MLAs come from all walks of life, we have one thing in common: the desire to serve the people of Saskatchewan as best we can.
Over the last two weeks, our government laid out the steps we will take over the next four years to continue to move Saskatchewan forward. In the speech from the Throne, we re-affirmed our commitments to responsibly manage the province’s historic growth, improve the quality of life for all Saskatchewan people, make life more affordable and to be accountable to you: the electorate.
Over the course of the legislative session, our government kept several promises we made during the recent election campaign through the introduction of several pieces of important legislation.
