Get ready for the first blooms of the year! 🌸 With the warm weather coming, and the snow eventually melting (it will we promise!), the crocuses will soon start blooming.

"Environmental Stewardship and Climate Action" is one of our six advocacy principles, and what better way to stand for a sustainable future than with a community led rally?

See you there, Saskatoon! 😊❤️🌍

The 2024 civic election is over.
We thank all candidates who participated in our survey and every voter who engaged in the democratic process.
We'll be back for 2028 with a better interface to make candidate information easier to process, but until then, stay engaged with us here.
