10 dead, including suspect, after mass shooting at northern B.C. high school Authorities are still trying to piece together what led to a horrific mass shooting in the small northern B.C. community of Tumbler Ridge that left 10 people dead, more than half of whom were found at...

No words can adequately describe what the families and loved ones of the victims must be feeling right now. For what it is worth, our hearts go out to them and hopefully one day they will find peace. #Peace

Today let's remember the sacrifice of the many (including family) who have fallen in the service of their country.

This is why it has been so important for @MarkJCarney not to jump the gun and sign a deal that would legitimize the @realDonaldTrump #Tariffs

Sounds wonderful @everetthindley except #Sask per student spending is the second lowest in #Canada

Spending less and diverting more to brick and mortar and speciality programs do not make up for staffing and overall quality of #education in the province.

Do better. #skpoli

Sask. premier heading to China in early September to talk trade amid canola fight | CBC News Scott Moe's office says the six-day trip, starting Sept. 6, will be the first time in six years that a Canadian premier has led a trade mission to China.

More travel on the public dime.

No wonder the @PremierScottMoe gov can't balance a budget.

Perhaps stay home, save some $$ that isn't yours, and learn how to balance a budget.

The province had predicted a $12M surplus this year. Now, it looks like a $349M sinkhole. Saskatchewan’s books have taken a financial hit, with a projected $12-million surplus now forecasted to become a $349-million deficit.

Two big questions:

1. How long until they completely β€œDevine” the province

2. Where is the money actually going

While @PremierScottMoe celebrates 10 years of AG in Motion here is a list of actual crises that have been going on this decade:

1. #drought in S. Sask
2. #wildfires
3. #HealthCare crisis

Want a more inclusive democracy in #Sask ?

It starts with political finance reform. Eliminate these donations:

Time for a complete overhaul, right @ElectionsSask ?

700 people stranded in northern Sask. community after wildfire blocks road | CBC News Seven hundred people in the northern hamlet of Patuanak, Sask., lost their only road out of the community this week after a wildfire blocked Highway 918. However, the hamlet is not directly threatened...

At some point the Minister in charge, Tim McLeod, is going to have to take some responsibility for the totally inadequate response to this years' wildfires.

Cutting $500 cheques to those displaced is simply not enough. #skpoli #Sask

Big Stick RM councillors slam Sask. agriculture minister over drought inaction Nine years of drought and outdated government programs have left area farmers desperate. β€œWe’re not looking for handouts, we’re looking for programs that actually fit what we’re going through.”

In times like these it should not be "who did you vote for?" or "what is your political affiliation?"

It should be "what do you need?"
