What Saskatchewan rural libraries are losing because of the funding cuts... NO new materials, not even books.

This morning I stood with dozens of concerned locals over the cuts the SaskParty have made. We greeted our NDP MLAs who came in on the STC bus here in Moose Jaw, SK.

For those who don’t know, Brad Wall and the SaskParty axed the STC, a vital means of transportation to not only rural communities, but simply getting city to city, delivering packages, or getting to school (as their is a shuttle provided by STC from Saskatoon to Regina).

They also cut funding to libraries, schools, to name a few. In Moose Jaw alone the public library had to layoff six people.

While library attendance is up from last year and forecasted to be up again this year, why is the SaskParty cutting funding to our libraries?

Schools can no longer afford to accept anymore new students, and are forced to hold off on programs due to begin in fall of 2017 for children with special needs.

These are just a few of the things the NDP is holding the SaskParty accountable for. The NDP is standing up for our crown corporations, children, and rural communities!

So this morning Brad Wall is all like, 'omg no refugees put a hold on this' and now I see an ad bragging about how many people he's supposedly brought in by his own mere existence. Like make up your mind buddy you don't get to pick and choose which people suit your province more than others.
