Legislative Report
November 12, 2026

Saskatchewan continues to demonstrate strong economic growth while making strategic investments that support families, businesses and communities. From record economic performance and job creation to investments in education, entrepreneurship and health care, our government remains focused on creating opportunities and building a strong and steady Saskatchewan.

Saskatchewan's economy continues to lead the nation. Statistics Canada's latest data shows Saskatchewan added 5,900 jobs year-over-year in October, while maintaining the third-lowest unemployment rate in Canada at 5.9 per cent. Strong growth in manufacturing, construction and health care reflects the confidence businesses have in Saskatchewan's future and the opportunities being created for workers across the province.

That momentum is further reflected in Saskatchewan's economic output, which reached a record $84.5 billion in 2025. Real GDP growth of 3.1 per cent outpaced the national average and highlights the strength of Saskatchewan's agriculture, construction and resource sectors. With more than 60 major projects planned or underway and over $100 billion in private capital investment opportunities across the province, Saskatchewan is well-positioned for continued growth.

Our province's strong international relationships continue to deliver results for producers. The extension of market access into China for Saskatchewan canola meal and peas through 2028 provides greater certainty and stability for farmers as they make decisions for future growing seasons. Reliable access to global markets supports farm families, strengthens rural communities and reinforces Saskatchewan's position as an agricultural leader.

Saskatchewan's resource sector is also creating new opportunities. The province's latest helium and associated gases Crown offering generated nearly $5 million in bids, reflecting continued investor confidence in Saskatchewan's natural resource potential. Since launching the new helium offering process earlier this year, the province has generated more than $23 million in revenue while supporting exploration and development opportunities.

Our government introduced legislation to strengthen safeguards surrounding Medical Assistance in Dying. The proposed legislation would establish additional protections for vulnerable individuals while ensuring Saskatchewan's health care system remains safe, compassionate and responsible.

Supporting seniors and their families remains a priority. Proposed legislative amendments would strengthen oversight of personal care homes by providing stronger enforcement tools, increasing penalties for non-compliance and ensuring operators meet provincial standards. These changes are designed to build confidence in the quality of care Saskatchewan seniors receive.

We are supporting the next generation of business leaders. Through Saskatchewan's Young Entrepreneur Bursary, 57 young entrepreneurs from 48 communities will receive funding to help grow their businesses, create jobs and contribute to local economic development. Programs like this help ensure Saskatchewan remains a place where innovation and entrepreneurship can thrive.

As Saskatchewan continues to create jobs, attract investment and strengthen services, our government remains focused on delivering practical results that support residents today while building opportunities for tomorrow. In an uncertain world, Saskatchewan continues to be strong and steady.
