Lol, so it sure sounds like the Conservatives had a plan to avoid an election but blame it on the app.
Only *after* it was clear there were sufficient abstentions to pass the budget, Scheer and Reid scurried to their seats to vote no.
They can’t have been far! The doors lock when a vote starts 🤪

“Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer and the party's caucus chair, Scott Reid, flew in at the last minute, saying they couldn't vote on the app and wanted to record their “nay” votes in person.
That's a bit unusual.”

I feel like I’ve been shouting into the void. It’s a real issue. Axing the tax has not made life more affordable in any way. It’s just stripped more money from those who need it.

5% electoral threshold to win a seat. Ranked ballots as part of PR (STV) I’m fine with. Rank ballots alone really change very little, imho.

The province had predicted a $12M surplus this year. Now, it looks like a $349M sinkhole.
Saskatchewan’s books have taken a financial hit, with a projected $12-million surplus now forecasted to become a $349-million deficit.
