  1. Get ready to see the election act rules bend based on this one….
    Has the MSM picked this one up?

  2. University of Regina. Look at the banner.
    Must have been put up for Calvert’s speech today.

  3. What no rant about the Sask Party’s version of pharmacare? or at least an impassioned defense?
    So disappointing…..

  4. That banner has been up before the election (Don’t know if that matters). Also in some washrooms on campus in the Captive Audience advertising spots.

  5. Sean S – Assuming you’d be interested in a Sask Party supporter’s opinion on the subject of the drug plan just go to Kate’s next blog… Just in time……. Go to the last comment which is mine.

  6. I was at the university today. According to the students union, the banner was apparently put up earlier in the year when the government was sponsoring the ‘welcome week’ activities. The students union admits they were notified that it had to be taken down when the election was called, but they said their employees just never got around to doing it.

  7. Charges must be laid. The guilty must pay. If you can convict a man over coffee cups, someone should hang for this.

  8. Surprise, surprise! The U of R SU didn’t take it down? Of course, it was the fault of the NDP-friendly Student Union and not Calvert and crew so they can’t be blamed. Too bad that the U of R SU execs are in bed with the troll man and his unfortunate party!

  10. Hey! I just saw the “Wolf In Sheep’….well you know what I mean – commercial. Is it just me, were they dormant for awhile and just making a comeback or have they been there all along? Anyhow I laughed and laughed. Do you know that laughing regularly, adds about 8 years to your life? Calvert makes me laugh (and cry) regularly. I hope they don’t cancel each other out.

  11. Texas Canuck….couldn’t agree more with your statement.Why should the left have to follow rules anyways?

  12. I was downtown Saskatoon last night and I noticed that Sasktel has a new billboard up advertising a new rate decrease; are the Crown Corporations allowed to advertise during an election?

    No kiddin’. Socialist “workers”, eh?
