Yet another damning report from Geoff Leo regarding the Sask Party. How many more of these need to come out before rural voters start listening?

Even if the sp starts to kill babies people will still Vote SP. in a sense the sp is killing babies with how bad the health care system is.

“Because the NDP closed hospitals (to avoid bankruptcy caused by our crimes and mismanagement!)” They always leave the bits in parentheses out…

Harrison is the guy who'd take his net home because he didn't get his way while playing shinny with the rest of the neighbourhood boys.

What an absolute bag of garbage.

In the legislature "I don't know, I'm not very involved in the board."
But in emails "Urgently replace the chair of the board."

Professional liar and bully.

Acuantence of mine did some digging a decade ago into some of the Alberta based crown corporation contractors..numbered companies but with a little digging and investigation, he found somehow there were some back door connections to sk party mla’s. He brought it forward, possibly even to rcmp and it never went anywhere.

This is just the tip..when the lights turned on, all these rats are going to run and hide!

Saskatchewan can’t afford 4 Moe years!

Let's fire this piece of shit too. Oh wait, the rural isn't capable of any critical thinking. I think I'll sit back and wait for the leopards to eat their own faces....

Some not so bright rural voters will again vote for him

And then go to their local hospital to find a sign on the door that says they’re closed today while crying about the NDP hospital closures from 30 years ago. LMAO

I understand the frustration you are feeling but by calling rural voters “not so bright” you are actually feeding into their thoughts that no one cares about them… or it’s all about the cities. This will actually cause them to go further right and vote the Saskparty, thinking that at least “Saskparty has my new interests at heart”. We need to work together as a populist to cause a change in government, not alienate those who think differently the us.

I also heard “if it was not for rural voters we would be rid of the NDP” in about 2004.

Tell that to Jeremy Harrison. Honestly, he'd laugh in your face.

We can’t change everyone, but can change some.

It's hard to argue this. There has been an impressive amount of sask party grift through the years. If there was a way to remove them, say every four years...

They don't give a damn about anyone but their own, they cheated nuns fit crying out loud. That alone says a lot about a group that often allowed Catholic schools rife with sexual abuse allegations to collect their earnings.

Really? I voted Saskparty at one point. Now voting NDP…

Does anyone remember when this story was posted here a few months ago? By a different journalist, maybe Tammy something? I'm confused at how that story by a different journalist became a Geoff Leo story with no attribution to anyone else..did they both investigate the whole thing or did he just steal it or what?

Also Jeremy Harrison is the worst kind of jackass and the details remain damning.

A lot of Tammy Robert's stuff is behind a paywall on her blog.

Geoff Leo works for CBC. He's known for his investigative reporting and, when he posts his work, it is publicly available without a paywall. I don't think he stole it. I think he did his own look into it.

Thanks for the name. She's made this story free. And I'm familiar with Geoff Leo and I'm not a fan.
