Poll suggests narrow race between NDP, Sask. Party in general election

In Alberta when you buy a provincial NDP membership, you automatically become a member of the Federal party. Do the same rules apply in Saskatchewan? I would guess they do seeing as the NDP began in Saskatchewan did it not? How do you like Jagmeet Singh’s policies?

As far as your concern for Saskatchewan creating its own agency to collect taxes. You prefer the present system where the Federal government collects them for you? You must have slipped on the ice walking across the yard and hit your head!!!!

Are you saying there should never be a government change.? History shows in Canada and the USA there is government change every eight years or so.Do you want a political system that creates a dictator like Putin that just puts his opposition in jail and knocks him off?

Hmmm, Newguy please show me where in my post I said Governmental change isn’t required on a regular basis?!?!

Enough comments about Killary...US two party system changes back and forth in Presidency, Senate and House of Representatives....not a real choice at all. Gridlocked regularly.

I heard the argument from poli sci friends that a functioning democracy needs three viable options to function. Canada the ndp federally had their lunch ate by Trudeau pushing the liberals left. Not unlike the USA we are a two party state as well. Think it evolves with the mindset of the electorate and parties ultimately adapt with the mindset of winning rather than representing. It’s the cancer which eventually kills democracy.

Curly Moe has been moving right to hold of the buffaloed party. Now he has to move back to to hold off the NDP?

A well organized campaign on healthcare failures by Moe and gang will make him nervous. And so it should.

Cancer patients not getting timely diagnoses and treatment. Surgery wait lists that are growing longer not shorter. Emergency shutdowns because of a doctor and nurse shortages. Especially in rural areas!

Why are rural residents so passive when they could say we wont vote for you unless you fix healthcare!

No he would rather pander to social conservatives and the bigots on transgender issues that affect a very small number of residents. Or fight with Ottawa over the carbon tax. Instead he could have designed and run his own carbon tax system and rebated it all back. A made in Saskatchewan plan.

His strategy is to avoid taking responsibility and blame the federal government for affordability even though he raised the PST and could lower electricity, gas telephone bills.

He has been running a distraction plan from the issues he has responsibility for!

Moe should be worried.
