Ridings to Watch

Regina–Wascana

CPAC’s Morgan Campbell reports on the riding of Regina Wascana, where the incumbent Ralph Goodale has comfortably held this seat since 1993. Mr. Goodale is also a Liberal and he has successfully held the seat despite the many ups and downs the party has gone through. But this election might be different. The province’s Premier Scott Moe has been outspoken against the federally imposed carbon tax and he’s directing much of his wrath to Ralph Goodale’s campaign. The main beneficiary of Mr. Moe’s ire may be Michael Kram, the Conservative candidate who fell 10,000 votes short in 2015. The Green candidate is Tamela Freisen and Hailiey Clark is the New Democrat.

Ridings to Watch

Regina–Lewvan and Saskatoon West

CPAC’s Morgan Campbell reports on the fate of the NDP in two ridings in Saskatchewan, Regina–Lewvan and Saskatoon West. The party took both seats from the Conservatives in 2015, one by only 132 votes, and this time around the Conservatives are working hard to take both back. Sheri Benson is the incumbent New Democrat in Saskatoon West and her main adversary is the Conservative Brad Redekopp, the owner of Cherry Creek Homes. The Liberal is Shah Rukh and Sawn Setyo is the Green. Just south of Saskatoon in Regina-Lewvan, the NDP candidate is Jigar Patel, the owner of three grocery stores in the city. Warren Steinley, the MLA for Regina Walsh Acres, is the Conservative. The Liberals are being represented by Winter Fedyk and Naomi Hunter is the Green Party candidate.

Campaign Politics

Saskatchewan 2016 Provincial Election

CPAC's Ed Watson reports on the provincial election in Saskatchewan, where Premier Brad Wall and the Saskatchewan party are seeking a third consecutive term. Like most resource rich-provinces, Saskatchewan has felt the effects of low oil and potash prices. The Wall government, despite having the most popular premier in Canada, is justifiably concerned about how the electorate will judge them come voting day. The NDP, led by Cam Broten, has accused the government of mismanaging the budget surpluses accumulated over the past decade. Emergency room wait times are still high here and the government’s move towards allowing private MRI clinics and other private services are issues the NDP hope to capitalize on. Voters in the province go to the polls April 4, 2016.

Supreme Court Hearings

Saskatchewan Federation of Labour, et al. v. Her Majesty the Queen

Case # 35423 Saskatchewan Federation of Labour ), et al. v. Her Majesty the Queen (May 16, 2014) In May 2008, the Government of Saskatchewan enacted the public service essential services act (The PSESA). At the same time the government of Saskatchewan also enacted the trade union amendment act (The TUAA). The PSESA introduced restrictions on public sector workers who provide essential services to engage in strike activity. The TUAA changed existing provincial labour legislation to make it somewhat more difficult for unions to obtain certification as bargaining agents. The Saskatchewan Federation of labour and numerous unions are challenging the constitutionality of these pieces of legislation. The unions claim the legislation infringes on charter rights, notably the freedom of association and freedom of expression.
