SASK people, this is really important. Our provincial government is reviewing proposals to merge and consolidate five or six pieces of labour legislation into one comprehensive act

It's the current serving governments we have. Federally, we have the Conservative Party of Canada - fundy right wing boneheads with no clue regarding economics (even though our Prime Minister is an economist! Ha!), human rights, or common sense. Currently, a good many Canadians are fighting the omnibus bill C-38 - a bill masquerading as a budget, but which will repeal many of our environmental protection laws. We're also fighting a few other bills including a huge military spending bill on fighter jets (not because we don't need jets, but because the government won't tell us how much they really cost!), and another omnibus bill that would build a bunch of superprisons here - something that the governor of Texas has said is a terrible idea for controlling the crime rate
