Spring sessions is a wrap
The first session of the new Legislative Assembly in Saskatchewan is over.
The 26-day session wrapped up on Thursday, extending into June because of April’s provincial election.
“The highlight of the session or for some the major challenge of the session would have been the budget,” said Premier Brad Wall.
He said the budget signaled an important new direction in the province with transformational change, where the government wants to focus on how to better balance quality services while reducing costs.
However, the Saskatchewan Party announced in that budget a deficit of $434 million, driven by lower resource revenues.
