Sask party wins!

[skhadenuf]

Finally! What a breath of fresh air and sense of optomism that swept across the province last night. Great to boot out a government content on serving their own interests only by pitting urban against rural so they could try to hang on to power. Ironically they were actually doing very little for the urban people as well and finally they the urbanites have seen that. This province now has unlimited potential both for urban and rural people to positively compliment each other instead of being coerced into believing that in order for one to benefit from something the other would pay the price as the the NDP continually preached. As far as the unions etc. maybe they should stop and realize that if the province grows by people and economically there will actually be a created need for the currently oversized public sector to serve more people and economic activity. However caution to the new government don't hesitate in punting any civil servants insistant upon making the government look bad, that was one mistake Mr. Devine made and it cost him politically greatly, you're either in with the new ideas or get the punt.

Doesn't the Sask Party have to learn how to govern, before it starts trashing tings? Or have they the mandate to say, dang the torps and full speed a head wit our agendi? Guess that would mean, that they ain't only good govt, but great govt, Ralphie K. kind of tinking, we are open for business. Tinking about tings can sometimes causes you to be to careful and considerate.

Burbert, we take all our lessons from you and your friends. Buzz off fruitcake, we've been victimized long enough.

What was the biggest mistake devine made?

[food4u]

Not following his own agenda and trying to out socalize the NDP......

[carebear300]

NO, the biggest mistake he made in my eyes anyway, was that he trusted the men that got him elected way too much. For instance Eric Bernston, who let him down big time, but without him would have never became even the leader of the conservatives.

after devine got elected , i thought what could it hurt. well i guess i was wrong.
Admittedly sask. had some tough economic times those years.
but wholesaleing out the provinces assets to good buddies,and haveing members dipping in the till. building a billion doller debt.
left such a bad taste with voters that a name change was the only way to ever get elected again.
hopefully Wall won't make the same mistakes.
rural sask. you would think would fare a little better under sask party.
the money is the there to fix some roads that the ndp ignored.
if he keeps the mulroney type cowboys in the back benches . and he governs fairly for all the people ,they won't have to change their name after the next election

The biggest mistake Devine made was not letting his finance minister use a CALCULATOR.

I hope Brad stops at radio shack to pick one up on his way to Regina

lesm,

ARROGANCE was the Devine gov.'s problem!

Believing you are GOD's gift to your neighbour and solution to every one else's problems... will create the problems Devine ultimately fell apart by. The Libs in Ottawa are no different... and the Libs in SK got their just reward as did the ND's.

Taxes are needed for basic infrastructure... but please keep the gov. out of monopoly business! They (the gov) DO NOT BELONG in the BUSINESS with Taxpayers writing a blank cheque to keep them afloat!

CN is the perfect example... both CN and CP are 100X better off with the gov. gone as the CN owner... as the regulations are arbitaged to be much more productive... service levels rise as well!

The brainyyaks on this site, continue to amaze me! Let's govern, without knowing, how, or why. Let's get on with the job, lets give the framers what they want, when they want it and however much they want. To heck with everyone/thing else, framers should be and are the number one priority. Then we can be assured to be in power forever. The Sask party will be right up there with the Roughriders, go Sask go! Yahh for the framers, they produce food and are fairly compensated for the hard work they do, on their giant iron machines.
