@Sasksafer That’s us!!! We did send our (email) letters in September/October/November… to date we’ve sent between 4,200 and 4,500 of them, on behalf of concerned fans + citizens 🙃

Students and teachers deserve better. We have tried everything possible to avoid these actions, but the @SaskParty government refuses to make commitments through negotiations with teachers around improving conditions in classrooms and schools across the province.

Has anybody done a geo-tracking of your donations in the city?

3/3 Elected at 24, Poilievre spent his entire career pursuing politics that hurt the working class. His backers are big oil, pharm & real estate lobbyists.
While he’s tapping into understandable anger over the cost of living, don’t be fooled.
He’s not in it for the little guy.
Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal. His cabinet is full of water criminals. They have been war criminals for years.
We need to stop supporting them in their tyranny and, instead, take them to the International Criminal Court. #CeasefireForGaza
