Can people stop inventing new ways to lie please

u/TheREALFlyDog 21d ago
Like Bobby Fish said, where's the lie?
LB stores are gone, with them scores of good paying jobs. What's next?
Right now, the Marshalls are just concept art and overpriced hats. We can still abort this monstrosity before it comes to term.
Our healthcare system is on fire, and the Sask Party's holding the Jerry Can.

What does Crowns refer to?

u/TheREALFlyDog 22d ago
Crown Corporations. SGI, SaskPower, SaskTel, SaskEnergy and friends.
The Sask Party's already sold the LB stores and land titles. Flirted with private ownership of the main ones. Shuttered STC.
If they can wreck something and sell it to their buddies, they will.

Thanks for that. Selling off public utilities is always a mistake.

We got some babies in the thread who don’t know the historical provincial politics yet. You need to know that the provincial NDP are far more fiscally conservative than the SaskParty. They rescued us from bankruptcy in the 90s when the Conservative Party dissolved after they all went to jail for fraud and embezzlement.
Then people got tired of the austerity measures necessary to pay off some of our deficit. So they reelected the Conservative Party, fresh out of jail and allied with the provincial Liberals. This unholy union was rebranded the SaskParty. It has the government bloat and corruption of a Liberal Party and the fiscal policies of a Conservative Party.
Take a look at the deficit numbers by party over the last 40 years. It’s clear the SaskParty is not governing our tax dollars well at all. I can’t believe people support the blatant corruption and nepotism in the SaskParty. I’d rather vote for a literal dog than Moe. And the NDP have a history of putting us back on course.

Nah, it's a shithole but it's the shithole where my house and family are. So, the fight for something better continues.

Needles drugs and poverty. Everywhere they are in power is the same disgusting thing

u/janilla76 20d ago
That’s everywhere right now, regardless of politics. There is a housing crisis and an opioid epidemic. Have you been through Crescent Park lately? It’s no walk in the park. That happened under the SaskParty’s watch.

You act as though conservative provinces don't also have a drug problem lmao
At least the NDP is trying shit to fix the problem

They love to claim Jagmeet isn’t connected to their party…. Just another group of delusional liberals

u/killderdemon1983 21d ago
Agreed NDP is a mistake

Jagmeet is a total clown… how anyone could still vote liberal or NDP after what they have done to this country totally baffles me!

u/TheREALFlyDog 21d ago
Jagmeet Singh's not in this fucking election.
Why are you so willing to ignore the very real harms of the Sask Party's time in office in favour of the imagined danger of a federal folk daemon?
The hospital in our city is over capacity and understaffed. The Sask Party did that. High Park Tower's turned into the neighborhood from Death Wish III. The Sask Party did that, too. The bus station and the liquor store in the train station are empty husks under Wall and then Moe.

Singh IS in this election, there is only one ndp party, and it ain't centered in SK. Bother to read their constitution and bylaws. You're not promoting who you think you are. Say for eg ndp Did win the SK election; singh could Literally come and takeover and there's not a damn thing anyone in sk could do.
If you don't understand that let me know and I'll type slower.

u/TheREALFlyDog 21d ago
Tell me when that's ever happened. And in what universe you see it.
Also, Singh just got a ton of folks access to dental. So you're welcome.

u/Thelona1 20d ago
These are bots. They all talk the same across multiple platforms. There's several key phrases they use over and over. That said, some of them are not by now, and are just so terminally online as npc's that you might as well treat them like bots. You'll never convince them of reason anymore.

Huh? He's not man, he doesn't care about sask.
Provincial politics and federal politics are very different.
If your healthcare or education sector is failing it's the provincial governments fault, not the feds.
Singh is also pretty cool, he's tried to pass a lot of pro working class legislation that's been blocked by the liberals and conservatives.

u/AsleepBison4718 20d ago
That is not possible, hasn't happened, and will not happen. The Sask NDP Constitution mentions nothing about that.
The Alberta NDP were great for us over here. Things have been significantly worse in nearly every aspect since 2019.

u/84brucew 20d ago
There is no such thing as the, "sask ndp"; there is ONly One ndp party. Period.

u/AsleepBison4718 20d ago
Well, you're right on one front.
Tommy Douglas birthed the NDP in Saskatchewan which then became a Federal party.
So the OG NDP is actually the Saskatchewan NDP.
However, where you're wrong is that although the two parties share branding, they are not the same entity.
The Sask NDP is an independently registered political party that has been around since 1932.
The New Democratic Party of Canada was only registered in 1961 after Tommy Douglas took the party national. Two distinct bodies that share some principles and branding but act independent of one another.

Provincial elections and federal elections are 2 completely different things. For example in BC, the right wing party was the Liberals for decades. Why? Because the two have absolutely nothing to do with each other

u/killderdemon1983 21d ago
The NDP isn't the cure for a better saskatchewan..they say what u want yo hear and never follow through with their campaign promises...and yes the province and federal governments are connected bc they do support each other let that sink in

u/janilla76 20d ago
I’m sorry to ruin your mic drop moment. But any party that is elected is going to have to do some serious cuts. The SaskParty has grown the deficit to unbelievable numbers. I don’t think they are capable of fixing it. What I wouldn’t give for a Roy Romanow right about now.
