Wildfire evacuees stood with Saskatchewan NDP MLAs outside the Sask. Party cabinet office yesterday to condemn the Sask. Party's failed wildfire response — from rejecting federal military help to touting a financial aid program evacuees say isn’t actually helping yet. The time to act is now.

Northern Sask is in crisis. Thousands forced to flee wildfires with little warning. We are calling for a provincewide state of emergency now and daily briefings so people get the info they need to stay safe. Manitoba’s already acted. Sask can’t afford to wait. Lives and communities are on the line

The Saskatchewan NDP is sounding the alarm after learning from frontline workers that the emergency rooms in both the Royal University Hospital (RUH) and St. Paul’s Hospital were operating dangerously overcapacity on Tuesday.

The comments that have emerged from a Sask. Party MLA today are deeply hateful and hurtful. The apology issued by Racquel Hilbert does little to ease the pain caused by her initial comments, which were clearly and premeditated and written out in advance before being delivered in the Legislature.

Canadians are strong. We are hardworking. We care for each other. We love our country very much. This is a fight we did not pick but we will not back down from. I am so proud to be Canadian today and every day. 🇨🇦

It's unbelievable that the Sask Party government would choose to cut healthcare in their provincial budget. This budget has no plan for the economy and pretends the last 3 months haven't happened. They're not focused on the future and are ignoring the realities we face today.

🚨The General Hospital has declared a “code orange” where strategies reserved for mass casualties events are employed.🚨 No this is not normal. No this is not OK. The cause? A modelled influenza surge. The Sask Party is flirting with full-on healthcare catastrophy. #skpoli
