I guess it’s not surprising that the Liberals voted to support invoking the Emergencies Act.
But the NDP had the chance to hold them accountable and stop this abuse of power.
They failed to do so. Never forget that.

It's time to heal the divisions over vaccination in our families, in our communities and in our province.
Today, we announced the end of the proof of vaccination/negative test policy effective February 14, 2022 at 12:01 a.m.
Today, trucker rallies are being held at many locations across the country, including on Parliament Hill in Ottawa and in various communities in Saskatchewan.
Here is my message to Saskatchewan and Canadian truckers:
NDP MPs know Trudeau’s use of the Emergencies Act is an abuse of power.
They have a unique opportunity to take a principled, courageous stand by voting against it. Will they?
We’ll find out soon…
Just to be clear, both Canada and the US will continue to import oil from Russia. Because our national governments consider the construction of oil pipelines from western Canada a greater threat than Russia, apparently.

Every province is now outlining its plan to remove mandates and restrictions.
We are calling on the Trudeau government to do the same.

I’ve been asked what experts we consulted in creating the Parental Inclusion and Consent policy.
I believe the leading experts in children’s upbringing are their parents.
Today, I joined 16 United States Governors and Premier Kenney to call on the Prime Minister and the President of the United States to immediately reinstate the vaccine and quarantine exemptions for truckers.

Quebec says there is “no social acceptability” for oil from western Canada.
That’s funny.. there seems to be a lot of social acceptability for equalization payments from western Canada.
Someone should check into that.
After last night's federal election, it is clear we need a New Deal with Canada. Read my statement here:

From a grieving province, thank you to first responders & medical professionals for courageous response under the most difficult circumstances imaginable.
Tonight, we all must pray for these families.

Here is my statement on potential protests at border crossings in Saskatchewan.
The federal government revoking the Emergencies Act is the right thing to do, because it should not have been invoked in the first place.
Interesting.
The Saskatchewan First Act asserts our province’s constitutional autonomy over our own natural resources.
Saskatchewan is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trudeau government.
Unlike Jagmeet Singh.

There are strong opinions on both sides of this issue, but neither side is a “small, fringe minority” with “unacceptable views.”
Trudeau’s net-zero electricity regulations are unaffordable, unrealistic and unconstitutional.
They will drive electricity rates through the roof and leave Saskatchewan with an unreliable power supply.
Our government will not let the federal government do that to Saskatchewan… Show more

Therefore, Saskatchewan does not support the Trudeau government invoking the Emergencies Act.
If the federal government does proceed with this measure, I would hope it would only be invoked in provinces that request it, as the legislation allows.

The NDP thinks the government’s role is to stand up TO parents.
The Saskatchewan Party believes the government’s role is to stand up FOR parents.
Jagmeet Singh will be speaking at the Saskatchewan NDP convention this weekend.
I know he will be talking about standing up for Saskatchewan’s resource industries to defend our province’s economy and jobs.
Just kidding.
The federal Justice Minister says he will look at taking control over natural resources away from the provinces.
It's an outrageous statement.

After more than 2 yrs of following the measures and doing your part by getting vaccinated, our gov’t is looking closely at how we can do that in the weeks ahead here in SK.

If it wasn’t clear before, it is now.
The Trudeau government doesn’t want to just reduce emissions in our energy sector, they want to completely shut down our energy sector.
Our response to the federal government’s 30% reduction on fertilizer usage is "thanks, but no thanks." for Saskatchewan.

Trudeau has gone too far by invoking the Emergencies Act. But Parliament can still stop this abuse of power.

I am asking all parties in the House to allow their members to vote freely on this motion. Every Canadian should watch very closely - will your MP protect your rights or will your MP support Trudeau’s unprecedented overreach?
Parents must be included in all important decisions involving their children.
Education Minister Dustin Duncan today announced that all Saskatchewan schools will have a consistent policy on parental inclusion and consent. 🧵
“Thou shalt not use coal for power generation post-2030, the federal government hath said. And it’s moving to do the same with natural gas by 2035.
“On Nov. 1, the Province of SK said, “To hell with that,” but in a more sophisticated, legal manner.”

Should our province join and Alberta in holding a referendum on equalization?

Canadians can’t afford three more years of a federal government focused on ending pipeline projects, destroying jobs and raising the carbon tax.

Read Minister Skoropad’s statement on Minister Guilbeault’s response to the federal government trespassing on private land:
This is not the response I expected from Canada’s Prime Minister.

In Saskatchewan, we will not increase power costs for our families and businesses to the point where they are completely unaffordable.

Well, this couldn’t be more clear. Jagmeet Singh says killing the Trans-Mountain pipeline would be a condition of the NDP supporting a Liberal minority government.
A Liberal-NDP government would be a disaster for western Canada.
Saskatchewan will not be following unrealistic federal electricity regulations that will triple or quadruple power rates and still leave us freezing in the dark.
Inflation was higher again in July in 8 of 10 provinces (not SK).

I remind the prime minister again, he’s not the prime minister of Quebec.

Saskatchewan’s plan for affordable, reliable power generation may require coal-fired generation beyond 2030.
Steven Guilbeault says that would be illegal.
Here’s my response to that.
The title of this article says it all…
With all due respect Prime Minister, in our meeting I once again voiced the concerns on behalf of Saskatchewan Families, businesses, and industries that a forced federal carbon tax and Bill C-69 need to be repealed and the Trans Mountain pipeline needs to be built.

I sat down with @PremierScottMoe in Saskatoon today to talk about the work we’re doing to create more jobs & opportunities, and diversify our trade with new markets around the world to build a better future for people in Saskatchewan.
On election night the Prime Minister said he had heard the frustrations of SK people & would take action to address those concerns. Today I expected to hear what he planned to do. What I heard was more of the same. Nothing has changed.

The United States does not need to be sending representatives across the globe to find a steady supply of oil.
Saskatchewan is ready to replace Russian barrels of oil with some of the most sustainable, high-quality energy products in the world.
The Prime Minister says he is concerned about 9000 jobs in Quebec, while he continues to support policies doing further damage to Western Canada’s sustainable industries, where we’ve lost 100,000+ jobs.
When will PM start showing the same concern for those jobs?
Pro parent-child relationship.
Exactly.
Yesterday I used the analogy that if stolen vehicles are used in crime, the vehicles' owners are not the problem, it's the people who are stealing them. Same holds true for guns & gun owners.
Trudeau's govt needs to understand: law-abiding gun owners are not the problem.
Dangerous, divisive and destructive.
What kind of a national government actively campaigns against one region’s most important industry?
Thank you to my friend Premier for everything you have done to unite Alberta conservative voters into a new party, defeat a destructive NDP government and lead Alberta through a very challenging time.
It's quite simple.
The NDP have no credibility on affordability while they continue to support Justin and Jagmeet's carbon tax.
Today defended his actions saying he was "preoccupied with # of jobs in Quebec, oh and obviously across 🇨🇦"
West Cda shed 100,000+ jobs in energy, made far worse by Trudeau carbon tax, no pipelines & Bill C-69, which would crush industry.
What about these jobs?
If Prime Minister wants to keep giving his Ministers advice because he's "preoccupied with jobs", here's the next place he can start:
Tell to scrap the Liberal carbon tax, Bill C69, and actually move on supporting our sustainable industries in west 🇨🇦
What a strong message sent today from the truck rally in Estevan.
People in SK & across Western Canada are fed up with the lack of pipelines & the Trudeau government’s indifference toward our energy sector.
Your SK government stands with you in support of this critical industry
