Province reacts to 2018 Saskatchewan budget
Reactions to the 2018 Saskatchewan budget are already pouring in.
The Saskatchewan NDP said this year’s budget is simply more of the same, and leaves families hurting.
“What this budget shows is that Saskatchewan is being kept in a railway siding, meanwhile the debt is on track to triple since 2008 and there is no investment in prosperity,” NDP Finance Critic Cathy Sproule said in a statement. “Where is the hope? Where is the leadership?”
Sproule said she liked the SaskParty’s commitments toward funding HIV medication and autism supports, but said the cutting the housing rental supplement and lack of investment into early education and childcare will “hurt the province’s most vulnerable.”
