$5,800 donation to the Sask United Party by "Anonymous, Anonymous" (which is very much illegal in our province).

$465,000 loan aka donation by the Sask United Party leader's corporation (which is legal).

We need reform of our ridiculously weak political donation laws.

I wrote a letter recently.
Here is the completely inadequate response from our Justice Minister. I guess I am wrong, we have a robust and transparent political donation process.
Silly me.
Pathetic.

Section of Annual fiscal returns including donations and contributions for 2024 for the Sask Party showing a $25,000 donation from 840545 Alberta Ltd.

Anonymous donation to the Sask Party last year.
$25k from a numbered Alberta Corporation.
No problem?
Not under our outdated wild west political donation laws.

My assumption is that the construction companies have made sizeable donations to the SP

There are precious few resources available for HC. Spending tens of millions on buildings BEFORE ever even caring for a single patient is unwise.
The buildings will draw HCWs from already depleted areas. It's an $$$ spreading of an already thin HC workforce.

Saskatchewan’s front-line physicians press ministers for action, answers | Globalnews.ca Saskatchewan doctors pressed provincial health ministers for answers on staffing, outdated tech, and called for more say in how care is delivered across the province.

I was in the room and glad to see my colleagues asking tough questions about the new Urgent Care Clinics being planned around the province.

The health minister did not adequately answer the questions asked of him.

It seems quite unlikely that you will get such a campaign given the current happenings at the federal level. 😢

We are going to have to be very diligent to make sure SP Moe’s buddy, UCP Smith, doesn’t influence Saskatchewan policy on availability of COVID-19 vaccine here.

I am sure it is a coincidence that a majority of the review's authors/contributors are of one mind on the pandemic response. /s

We should take their recommendations with a healthy dose of skepticism. It is unfortunate that media headlines don't reflect the bias of this panel.

Dr. Blaine Achen. Yep, he was one of the authors.

He somehow got himself tangled up with the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, John Carpay's group which helped lead the freedom convoy, and who provided legal counsel to those charged.

Some of the names are instantly recognizable. Jay Bhattacharya is Trump's pick to lead NIH. He authored "the Great Barrington Declaration" which in 2020 proposed vulnerable people shelter in place while the rest of us catch COVID (in the pre-omicron era!).

You may have recently seen the headlines/articles: "Alberta task force recommends halt of COVID-19 vaccines in new report"

But who wrote the report. Let's dive in a bit. 🧵

Thanks Janice. That was my plan. To share with a few MLAs. Maybe I should do a formal one but that seems like considerably more effort and time (which is a luxury I can’t afford!)

Sign the Petition Impose Limits on Out-of-Province, Corporate, and Union Political Donations in Saskatchewan

We are up to 550 signatures, which is amazing!

I truly believe that there are far more of you out there who, like me, believe that we need to take large donations out of the equation when our politicians are crafting policy.

Please sign & share 😀

A lame attempt at a meme playing on the fact that no one likes Proroguing of parliament but we can all agree that perogies are delicious Because the words are similar. Ok I’m not funny…

Amirite?

Sask. town to lose 2 doctors by end of January | CBC News Kipling, Sask., is set to lose two of three doctors at its health centre and area by the end of January.

The SIPPA program is important in that it provides a stream of physicians entering our province who otherwise wouldn’t.

I’m very curious about the medium to long term retention rates though as it seems they so rarely stay in our province.

This.

This is what brought in changes to family med that swept the nation.

Up until now all rallies that I’m aware of in SK have been organized by unions and have been shrugged off.

I believe we need a critical mass of public pressure to achieve change.

Sick doctors mean hospital emergency department will close early Dec. 31 City Hospital's emergency department will close early on New Year's Eve.

Warning shot fired.
This story is about more than one sick doctor who can't make their shift tonight in our province's largest city.

Our ERs are in crisis. Staffing in our ERs is getting more challenging. Even in our big cities.

We need to fix this.

Regina senior says care at Pasqua Hospital was 'dehumanizing', family calls for change The 93-year-old and her family are speaking out about what they characterized as an alarming lack of care in hopes of sparking change.

I know it is difficult to be vulnerable and tell your HC story publicly, but without stories like this being told every single day, we will never see change.

Troubled Administrative Information Management System is now set to cost $250M by the project’s end.

How?

Resign from cabinet??

I’m from Saskatchewan where you don’t even resign from cabinet if you get caught lying about bringing a gun into the legislature!

This is serious.
