  1. The CBC refers to this moron as a “public relations expert”. The media just never gets tired of that word “expert”, do they?

  2. Unfortunately, the world is full of parasites that think the world owes them big time simply for existing.

  5. When watching people who appear to have anger management and impulse control issues, I always wonder how much is real and how much is a lookatme-itis performance. When they make a living in politics, acting or journalism then I assume it’s mostly a scripted performance. I’m sorta old school and have nostalgia for the era when people were encouraged to be in control of their emotions and public temper tantrums by adults were seen as a character weakness. Perhaps stoicism needs a revival.

  6. “Yesterday in Saskatchewan the people that produce the food and natural resources beat the people that eat the food and use the natural resources.”

    Some folks posted on X/Twitter that the Sask. Party had to work on making inroads to gaining urban votes, but they haven’t told me yet why this is so.
    “Some members” of my left leaning family in Sask. had told me years ago that maybe if Alberta started voting for the Liberals that they’d start doing things and they’d care more for the people of Alberta.
    There was further “discussion” …

    1. It’s supposed to be a mutually beneficial arrangement. Areas outside Saskatchewan’s big cities produce the food, work the mines and pump the oil and gas. Then they drive to cities and have access to services that are not available in their areas. Rural areas provide income tax and corporate tax for governments plus support office jobs, secondary manufacturing work, retail jobs in the cities. For the most part, it worked great for everyone in the province.

      Somewhere along the way, this pact was broken. Politicians decided that pitting big city urban people against rural and smaller cities harvested votes, and vice versa. Politicians have been sowing those divisions ever since plus dividing people by race, gender, socioeconomic class, etc. Historically this isn’t unusual in politics but it was not the norm for Saskatchewan because most people in the cities had rural roots and understood the economic realities of the province. I’m not fond of the way politics are trending in Saskatchewan, it’s toxic to everyone.

    3. I voted for the SK Party (live in Regina) because I am NOT a grifter. I have voted only twice for the NDP – once in the early 70’s in Winnipeg (I was in my early 20’s, so young and stupid) and then in 1992 for Bob Rae as I was so fed up with both the Liberal and Conservative parties in Ontario. Ha, ha! the joke was on me as so many others did the same thing that Mr. Bob Rae became premier for 5 years and trashed Ontario. He then became a Liberal.

  7. She seems nice.
    sarc.

    No dog in this bunt but a prime example of Canadian style TDS.

  8. Just another left-wing sore loser looking for excuses for the latest failure. This urban/rural split thing that is causing much wailing and gnashing of teeth on the part of the socialists and the media is becoming tedious. Sure the NDP made gains in Saskatoon and Regina but so what? Even the most obtuse left-wingers probably realize that Saskatchewan has a number of other large urban areas existing in ridings that went completely Sask Party with wins that ranged from comfortable (Moose Jaw, Prince Albert) to overwhelming (all others). As one poster had correctly pointed out on a previous thread, Saskatoon and Regina are teeming with unionized public service employees and we all know how they vote.
    On a related matter, Carla Beck has come up with the profound statement that they have changed the Sask political landscape. Well I’m no geographical expert but comparing the electoral maps of Saskatchewan after the 2020 election to the current electoral map (disregarding the Athabasca riding), one would need a magnifying glass to notice the difference. It’s ridiculous statements such as Beck’s latest masterpiece that demonstrate why she will continue to sit in the opposition benches and lead the childish heckling and obstructive tactics while the adults opposite will steer the province into the future. The NDP ran a poor campaign from day 1 counting heavily on CUPE, SEIU, STF and the other large unions to spend their members’ dues on billboards and cute little lawn signs (“I’m a public service voter”) demonizing Scott Moe. They did that job well.

  9. Well, the Whoopee cushion might (finally) be heading north really soon. Maybe they can trade digs.

  11. Just a little unhinged? /sarc
    I’m leaving SK too, but not for political reasons. I’m leaving for economic reasons.
    Relieved that my riding did vote in Sask party candidate.
