Green Party of Saskatchewan

Resolutions passed at this year’s Annual Convention included a change in the Leader's term of office from two years to four. This move is intended to provide a more appropriate level of continuity, and strengthen the Party's public image. Because the Executive elections took place under the old bylaws, the four-year term will only take effect at the next leadership election

In another significant change, the 3-year limit on any individual’s continuous years of service on the Executive was removed from the Constitution.

Regina, Saskatchewan – Green Party of Saskatchewan Leader Victor Lau is floored by the highlights of the 2012 provincial budget. “I can’t believe the film tax credit is gone,” says Lau. “This drives a dagger through the heart of the province’s film industry. What will become of the Regina Sound Stage, after millions of taxpayer’s dollars were invested in it?” Other measures that puzzle Lau include the new Ambulance fees and the extra fees for the Saskatchewan Drug Plan for Seniors.

“And if that isn’t enough,” says Lau, “what was supposed to be an austerity budget is instead a runaway freight train of new spending.” Lau figures the budget lacks vision, and that Finance Minister Ken Krawetz should look to the Green Party’s election platform from the 2011 provincial election for future inspiration.
