Legislative Report
April 29, 2026

Protecting Saskatchewan starts with supporting the people who make our province strong. By investing in families, communities, and the services people rely on, we are focused on building a brighter, more secure future for everyone who calls the province home.

One of the ways we are supporting Saskatchewan people is by strengthening the industries that drive our economy. Much of that strength comes from our value -added agricultural sector, which reached a record $8.4 billion in revenue for 2024-25. Recent plant openings and expansions show strong investor confidence and position Saskatchewan for continued growth. With more than 300 food processors employing over 5,000 people, value -added agriculture supports global food security in more than 160 countries. These investments, supported by a strong and growing economy, help ensure our government can continue delivering high -quality services for Saskatchewan communities and families.

Supporting young people is one of our most important responsibilities, and we are investing in programs that help students grow, learn, and thrive. We are investing in the next generation through school-based restorative justice programs. An annual investment of $288,876 over the next four years will support initiatives that address bullying and conflict, promote positive relationships, and improve student well-being. These programs help young people resolve conflicts, build leadership skills, and understand the impact of their actions. By giving youth the tools to repair harm and rebuild trust, we are helping shape the thoughtful and compassionate leaders our communities will one day rely on. Supporting students in this way strengthens not only their future but the future of our entire province.

Our government continues to protect health care by expanding training opportunities in family medicine, creating more pathways for Saskatchewan students and graduates to train and work closer to home. The 2026 medical residency match confirmed that all 162 seats at the University of Saskatchewan were filled, including 10 newly added seats. This progress reflects ongoing work to expand opportunities for future doctors to learn, practice, and build their careers right here in Saskatchewan. Ensuring that more health care professionals can train and stay in our province strengthens care for families today and for generations to come.

Another major step forward in strengthening health care is the completion of the new Weyburn General Hospital. Construction is now finished, and the Saskatchewan Health Authority is preparing the facility for opening later this year. This modern 35 -bed hospital will bring together acute care, mental health services, EMS, ambulatory care, a heliport, social work, allied health, and space for the Weyburn and District Hospital Foundation. All of these services will be provided under one roof. With more than $134 million invested by our government, along with generous community support, this project reflects a shared commitment to putting patients first. Families in Weyburn and the surrounding region will have improved access to high -quality care close to home. This facility will meet community needs for decades to come.

Community safety remains a priority for our government, and we are strengthening it by investing in alternative measures across the province. Approximately $4.3 million annually over the next four fiscal years will support more than 20 First Nations, tribal councils, and community -based organizations. These programs hold people accountable by reducing repeat offences, restoring relationships, empowering victims, and addressing the root causes of harmful behaviour. Together, these measures support the development of safer, stronger communities where people feel protected and supported.

We are also enhancing safety on Saskatchewan’s highways. Through the 2026 -27 provincial budget, funding for the Saskatchewan Highway Patrol is increasing from $7.8 million to $8.5 million, enabling the hiring of five additional traffic officers. This investment expands enforcement capacity, improves response times, removes unsafe vehicles from the road, and disrupts criminal activity moving through our province. It provides officers with the resources they need to continue doing what they do best – protecting Saskatchewan.

Together, these investments reflect a clear and consistent focus on building a stronger Saskatchewan. By supporting our economy, expanding training opportunities, strengthening health care, enhancing community safety, and investing in our youth, our government is reinforcing the foundations that help families succeed and communities thrive. Saskatchewan is growing, and with that growth comes new opportunities, greater stability, and a brighter future for people across our province.
