The
Green Party of Saskatchewan believes that we need a society that emphasizes
cooperation rather than competition |

| Foreign
and non-resident ownership of Saskatchewan agricultural land threatens the
continuation of family and private farm ownership |
WE
SAY NO |
| Under
an effective “Quality Saskatchewan Program” the need
to reach consensus about how to make a whole community, with all of its
economic, social and institutional components, into a “Quality
Saskatchewan” region, will renew the fundamental cooperative
spirit that first built our Saskatchewan society. |
WE
SAY YES |
The name “Saskatchewan” should become synonymous, nationally
and internationally, with “certified high quality, environmentally
responsible and economically sustainable products, institutions and communities.” |
WE
SAY YES |
| The
government of Saskatchewan should facilitate the achievement of “Quality
Saskatchewan ” status by communities, organizations and farm
and business operations by redesigning provincial financial and regulatory
supports that encourage the expansion of a Quality Saskatchewan Program.
|
WE
SAY YES |
| Post-secondary
education is unfairly expensive, especially to rural residents, and so it
discriminates against many qualified students and imposes a severe debt
load on new graduates, in many cases driving them to seek employment out
of province. |
WE
SAY NO |
| All
qualified Saskatchewan citizens are entitled to free higher education as
they are to health care and secondary education. Government should move
quickly to reduce and eventually eliminate student tuition fees. |
WE
SAY YES |
| Gambling
in Saskatchewan is socially destructive and a regressive form of
taxation, and “each nickel SIGA or any other gambling organization makes comes
from the hand of a loser - someone who had a dream to win, but lost.” |
WE
SAY NO |
| The
citizens of Saskatchewan communities deserve the right to decide if they
wish to permit gambling to continue in their community. |
WE
SAY YES |
