Fair enough in B.C's case about growth but in Saskatchewan we wouldn't have the cultural problem of chinese and east indian people just because I don't think there is anything we could do for them to want to move out here.

The people we need to grow this province are just in fact the one's who left. We aren't talking about growing like B.C's interior, you must realize growth to us, is much more difference than growth to B.C., Alta, Ontario and Quebec.

The SKParty's platform wasn't a fairy tale, and you could see this because the NDP didn't spend much time on asking the question of how they would come up with these tax cuts. The NDP knows they ran deficits so they can't be too contradictory and claim the SKParty will with their tax cuts, when the NDP already are with minimal tax cuts, and by not signing the Taxpayers Federation pledge have a hidden agenda to raise taxes.

Furthermore all the things you say need to be done that have to do with pop. growth, need to be done anyways. The state of our highways is bad, in fact we have some of the worst roads in Canada. The NDP has had 12 years to address this problem and still nothing, I am beginning to think 16 won't make anymore difference.

All that aside probably the big thing your missing is that the NDP had one problem? Not just one problem, maybe one that you heard of, but they had lots.

Spudco lost 28 million, Land Titles System cost 100 million and yet no system is in place, huge deficits, retx.com lost 30 million, coachmen insurance lost 18 million, sasktel max cost 20 million, and only 10,000 users!!!!, australian cell phone company, and there are more.

The underlying problem here is not only did they blow taxpayers money, but they lost it out of province and out of the country in some cases. Georgia, Australia and Ontario do not invest in Saskatchewan so why do we invest there??? They have the worst job creation in Canada and its no wonder, they do however create some nice jobs for people in Australia, and Georgia! Our how about fixing our cell phone service, almost all of the northern part of our province it doesn't work, and in b/w towns it doesn't either when a person would really need it if they broke down!!!

NDP has some major issues to attend to, the only problem is some of these issues have been around for 12 years and yet no fix, why did we give them another 4 years? Nobody has said because they can do it, everyone say b/c their scared of the SKParty. Isn't that ironic just b/c they are not scared of the NDP, mainly b/c the SKParty didn't resort to them tactics people voted for them. Nobody has said the NDP will make a change, in fact 64% of the people thought change needed to happen, but were scared of the SKParty, and who brought this on? The new democrats.
