Compare and Contrast

Premier Brad Wall and NDP leader Dwain Lingenfelter with year end interviews for the Leader Post.

Lingenfelter isn't even in the same league as the Premier. What a whiny bitch!

"I'm not sure whether it was something that developed over the 10 years gradually or whether it is the Sask. Party and the right-wing, Harper-Wall-Bush style strategy of how you deal with your opponent. But for sure, it's not my style of politics..."

Really? Calling the Premier "the little thief from Swift Current" seemed to roll off his tongue.

"That's very foreign to me where there is this animosity. NewsTalk Radio, where you have the spewing of just what approaches hate from one particular journalist day or night, about personal attacks on the leader of the opposition and I understand it was similar with Lorne Calvert. But this is a new era of politics that takes a little bit of getting used to..."

Lingenfelter is trying to play the victim and people are going to see how even more disingenuous he is. Or is it ingenuous? I'm getting them confused now.

NDP Orc - John Parry

Another LTTE in the Saskatoon Star Phoenix from another average concerned citizen.

But John Parry isn't just a concerned citizen... He's the federal NDP candidate for Saskatoon Wanuskewin

Why wouldn't Parry mention that in his letter? Where are the courage of his convictions? The Star Phoenix must start identifying these candidates.

And we will continue to do so.

Drinkin' Buddies

SGEU President Bob Bymoen, NDP MLA Darcy Furber, SFL President Larry Hubich and NDP Leader (and former Calgary oil executive) Dwain Lingenfelter enjoying a beer at one of Regina's hottest clubs.

Do you really think Dwain likes any of these people, or that Bymoen or Hubich care much for Lingenfelter? Or are they all just using each other to get what they need?

Dwain "The Ventriloquist Dummy" Lingenfelter

Wishing you Happy Holidays. Doesn't Link just ooze with the Christmas? (Which he never mentions in name, but that's a post for another day).

While the NDP Complains

About non-existent loan guarantees with the Amicus deal, the Saskatchewan taxpayers take a REAL hit as a result of the NDP's unprecedented financial mismanagement in Thompson Meats.


The provincial government is receiving $247,000 from the sale of Thomson Meats, after putting close to $12 million into the Melfort company over the course of several years, Agriculture Minister Bob Bjornerud said Thursday.

...

Bjornerud said the government investments into the company -- which included share purchases, debentures and grants -- took place from 1996 -- 2007 under previous NDP governments. The province said it never collected dividends or repayment of the debentures


I guess this is one scandal that Gormley missed in his book. I'm sure there will be more than enough for a second edition.

NDP Orc - Beth Smillie

Another LTTE in the Saskatoon Star Phoenix complaining about the new privately owned Surgicentre. Just your another concerned citizen? Nope!

Beth is a CUPE communications rep and the contact person for this press release

Here's the best part.

The fact that wait times for surgeries in the Saskatoon Health Region have continued to drop over the last year is due to innovations in the public system, not the government's decision to use for-profit clinics.


I hate to break it to Beth, but besides being wrong about the for-profit clinics the Saskatchewan Party was in government when these waiting lines were reduced, not the NDP.

But one has to ask, why does a CUPE spokesperson take issue with waiting lists being shortened?

Welcome Gene!

Y0u think the NDP campaign would have better things to do than get supporters to vote on an Internet poll. They have much bigger problems. Hi Dwain!

h/t Deb (for the email)

Who Would Best Represent Regina Dewdney in 2011

This guy?

Or this guy?

Good luck, Gene!

The Tolerant Left

If I may rip a headline from SDA, this post epitomizes the mindset of the hardcore NDP ideologues.

The blog owner of Sask Party Watch is Kent E. Peterson, an NDP VP who posts under the pseudonym of rightwingbob.

While we don't suffer fools gladly, we do expose them.

Aside from Peterson being totally incorrect about Gormley's position on the LeClerc matter, here is what Peterson had to say about Serge LeClerc, who is gravely ill with cancer.

From a email...

Kent Peterson, as always, at his most eloquent as the NDP continues it's smear campaign against a man who has done so much for addicted youth and is now fighting for his life.

For shame.

Lingenfelter Praises The SK Party Government

From the AP

But he (Lingenfelter) acknowledges the upside. "It's exciting times in Saskatchewan," he told AP. "I don't want to make it sound like there's huge problems because there isn't."

However, there wil be huge problems in Saskatchewan if the people decide to elect Lingenfelter and the NDP in 2011.

More Despicable Behaviour

Saskatoon Eastview NDP MLA defends the NDP political tactic of trying to smear Brad Wall with Serge LeClerc's ethics violations.

Meanwhile, Mr. LeClerc is battling life threatening bowel cancer in an Ontario hospital.

These people are not only out of touch with the majority of Saskatchewan residents, but have forgotten common decency.

Reaching Across the Aisle

Star Phoenix Editorial - November 25th

For the likes of Ms. Junor, however, for whom nasty partisan politics seem to be something that simply cannot be put aside even for a moment no matter the circumstances, life's realities simply don't matter. All that counts is to try to score a few cheap points at the expense of rivals, damn the consequences even if the polls suggest it's a foolhardy strategy.

...

However, if the NDP thinks this sorry saga can be twisted to partisan advantage with a baseless attack on Mr. Wall, it only shows that the party is hurtling down a self-destructive path despite Mr. Lingenfelter's pledge to change an approach that's simply not connecting with voters

...

What was that about leopards and spots?

NDP Orc - Shirley Dyck

Just another concerned citizen writing a LTTE today in the Star Phoenix from Shirley Dyck.

Well this ordinary average citizen just happens to be Shirley Dyck, Treasurer for the NDP Saskatoon Eastview constituency, represented in the Saskatchewan Legislature by Judy Junor.

"The people of this province will be much better off when the Saskatchewan Party's Wall comes down in November 2011."

The closer to the November 2011 election we are, the more deranged they will become.

Someone Looks Uncomfortable

And I don't mean the baby with her jumpsuit over her face...




I don't know why, but I am reminded of a quote from The Hunt for Red October...

Jeffery Pelt; "Listen, I'm a politician which means I'm a cheat and a liar, and when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops."

NDP Supporters Are Not The Only Ones Being Spun

Reliable sources are claiming that the first the NDP caucus heard about the Sigma Analytics (SA) poll was when it was published in the Leader Post on Saturday.

Evidently, the Friday before and after receiving the embargoed SA poll, NDP Dwain Lingenfelter and his top advisor Garry Aldridge had a closed door, all day session, and left before speaking with members of Lingenfelter's own caucus.

Two weeks prior, members of the NDP caucus at the get-away were told that they were within 5% of 30 constituencies in the province. That was completely contradicted by the SA poll.

If these events are indeed true, the NDP are heading down the path of a very public civil war with the party faithful and the Lingenfelter crew.

And the winner will be Brad Wall, the Saskatchewan Party.

NDP Orc - Don Kossick

Another LTTE this morning in the Star Phoenix from well known leftist activist and perennial losing NDP candidate, Don Kossick

"It is time that Canadian citizens take back their government."

Typically, this is done by an election. What exactly is Kossick advocating here? Is the left in this country becoming so desperate that they are advocating less peaceful ways of electoral change?

Keep your eyes on Kossick and his followers. This may be a sigmal of things to come.

NDP Orc - Janice Harty

Just another Star Phoenix LTTE from concerned citizen, Janice Harty...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The story, Wall holds wide lead: poll (SP, Nov. 6), says the premier and the Saskatchewan Party government are "riding a wave of popularity."

It's the destruction after the tsunami we need to prepare for.

Thank God Dwain Lingenfelter is the NDP leader. He's been preparing us for that since his endorsement."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a note from one of our readers/researchers;

"A search of her name reveals she is from Shaunavon, and not surprisingly 6 of her 26 friends are from the Lingenfelter family, including Dwain himself."

Other notable friends include CUPE union organizer (and former life insurance agent) Ann (Riley) Iwanchuk, wife of NDP MLA Andy Iwanchuk and NDP MLA Cam Broten.

Oh, and Janice gave $305 to the federal NDP party in 2000. Need I say more?

Nice work...

The Inappropriate Darren Hill

Typically I don't comment on civic issues. However, this race and in particular the actions of one existing city councillor is concerning me.

The councillor's seat for Ward 5 in Saskatoon became vacant when Gord Wyant became the Sask Party MLA.

The by-election is set for November 29th/2010. There are six candidates running for seat.

The problem is that existing Ward One councillor Darren Hill is actively campaigning for one of the candidates, Ainsley Robertson.

Not only is it absolutely inappropriate for an existing city councillor to be actively campaigning for any candidate, but Darren Hill is using his city issued cell phone to promote Ms. Robertson. Those phones are meant for city business only, and NOT to campaign for candidates!

His latest communique was posted on Facebook and was sent as an email to Robertson supporters and friends;

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Darren Hill
11:52pm Nov 16
CALL TO ACTION! We need to getpeople in Silverwood, Lawson Heights and River Heights out to vote this Saturday for Ainsley Robertson – for ward 5 City Councillor.

Advance Poll voting is available at Lawson Heights School, 430 Redberry Road, on Saturday, November 20 between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

I do not want to go into details in print as to why this election is so important on so many issues. If you care to discuss it please call me at 227-4322.

Please contact 10 people in the ward (everything north of Circle Drive) and make sure they vote on Saturday.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

This isn't the first time Darren Hill acted inappropriately during an election campaign.

The question I ask is what Hill expect of Ms. Robertson if she wins? How will he be perceived by the new Ward 5 councillor if Ms. Robertson loses. Will his electioneering affect future governance by city council?

The City of Saskatoon needs to take immediate action against councillor Hill and his egregious actions.

Whistling Past the Graveyard

In response to the damning Sigma Analytics poll, NDP Provincial Campaign Manager Dale Schmeichel sends an email to the party faithful;

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our Polling Results Show a Steady and Significant Improvement

Dear (member) – You may have read or heard about the polling results recently published by the Leader-Post and the StarPhoenix that imply we are seriously trailing the Sask Party.

Our polling results over the past year show a steady and significant improvement in our position

I wanted you to know this poll was conducted during the height of the media coverage of the Potash Corporation takeover discussions. As is often the case, polling done during such a period of unusually prominent coverage of an issue of widespread public interest seems to have given the Sask Party a large “blip” in support.

As I have said at Council meetings and in reports to Constituency meetings and Provincial Executive meetings, our polling results over the past year show a steady and significant improvement in our position that is at odds with the published results of this recent poll. The NDP will form government by winning 30 or more seats. We never led in a poll across all fifty-eight seats in 2003, but you will remember those Election night results.

Keep Talking to Your Friends and Neighbours

I encourage party members and workers to continue to talk to friends and neighbours about the issues of importance to Saskatchewan people such as improving accessibility to health care, controlling increases in living costs such as rental rates and costs of utilities and the need to return Saskatchewan to prudent fiscal management.

Specifically on the potash issue, we need to remind people that it is Dwain Lingenfelter and the NDP that are insisting that no matter who owns the potash company, the people of Saskatchewan deserve a better deal than they've been getting so far. You can read more about our Plan for Potash to have all the details at your fingertips.

Form Government in 2011

We will be doing a new round of polling in the coming months and I remain confident those results will show a return to a more normal situation which will confirm we are competitive and on the path to form government in November 2011.

Dale Schmeichel
Provincial Campaign Manager

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the same Dale Schmeichel that claimed all of us would be surprised by the Saskatoon Northwest by-election, alluding to a possible NDP win or a better than expected outcome for the NDP. Sask Party candidate Gord Wyant absolutely trounced NDP candidate Jan Dyky, actually gaining almost 6% more of the popular vote than in the 2007 general election.

Schmeichel was also behind the NDP hit piece on Wyant, that actually hurt the NDP campaign, rather than helping it.

I thought Schmeichel was smarter than this. But then again, in light of the poll and his position in the NDP campaign, what else is he going to say?

NDP Orc Alert - Alma Wiebe

As mentioned on JGL ...

A LTTE from Alma Wiebe Q.C. Just another average citizen. Oops... Not so fast!

Alma's family tie... Make sure you take a look at sister Nettie's stellar election record!

As for Alma? In her own words

They have now expanded the meaning of cowardice to include shamelessness by having the gall to hide behind the Investment Canada Act, which, apparently, none of them comprehend
...
The rest of them need to grow some spine.

The fact that Ms. Wiebe actually identifies herself as a Q.C. could be seen an embarrassment to all other Q.C.'s. This is NOT appropriate behaviour, especially when her sister is a nominated federal NDP candidate.

But when it comes to an NDP pedigree, it seems as though nothing is sacred. Not even a Q.C.

NOT Selling Saskatchewan

Evidently, the role of Opposition means opposing everything that isn't beneficial to the NDP.

NDP deputy leader Deb Higgins - "How realistic will these advertisements be? Will we see ads that talk about two years of deficit budgets or shortage of child-care spaces or shortage of affordable housing?" she said.

What Higgins is really saying is that the NDP doesn't want growth. They want to emphasize our problems to rest of Canada, rather than our successes. And for only one reason.

Economic and population growth and the sharing of information is death to the NDP party. In order for them to survive, they will have to change. They will have to take the Regina Manifesto off their website. And God forbid, they may have to actually renounce it.

But until then, they will continue to run down the province for their own political objectives.

Even if it hurts every citizen in the province.

Piling on

These can't be good for the ego...

His numbers could not go any lower if he actually was trying to drive them down. For an NDP leader in Saskatchewan, 17 per cent is close to rock bottom. He could run naked through the streets with twigs in his hair, howling like a coyote, and probably drop down no further than 16.5 per cent.

Why Lingenfelter's stock is so low is no great mystery. At a time of unprecedented provincial optimism, he is campaigning as old Mr. Crankypants, the neighbourhood curmudgeon. He's mean, he's grumpy and he is doing for the NDP what a bedbug infestation does for hotel occupancy.

Ouch!

Looks Like a Great Weekend for Reading

I just want to remind all my readers to make sure you buy a copy of John Gormley's book, Left Out - The Saskatchewan NDP and their Relentless Pursuit of Mediocrity.

And I mean buy it, not unlike a certain Saskatoon NDP MLA who took the book off the shelf in McNally Robinson for a quick free read and then put it back.

Just remember folks, the NDP Boogeyman is everywhere...

Privatizing Our Highways Is Dangerous Business

So is the SGEU pulling snow plow operators off the roads during the middle of a snow storm in order to have negotiating power. Or did you think we would forget?

Since there really aren't any wedge issues to run a campaign on, and on the important issues like healthcare more people trust the Brad Wall government than the NDP, the NDP proxy SFL and their newly re-elected president, Larry Hubich are just making stuff up.

But then again, this isn't new to the left.

I Suspected This Was Coming...

Intervention - The NDP Caucus Edition

In light of the devastating Sigma Analytics poll, Dwain Lingenfelter is considering changing his approach

A&E crews were in Regina on the weekend to record the historic weekend meeting

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Candy Finnigan; "I'm glad you could make it here Dwain. I've had the opportunity to spend some time with you caucus and I want to tell you, they love you like crazy. They just want to tell you a few things and then we can go. Is that OK?

Dwain L.; How yoooou doin'?

Candy Finnigan; Eyes here, Dwain. You want to start Kevin?

Kevin Y.; Dwain... I'm here because I care about you and I want you to be happy. We've had some good times, buddy. Remember, Channel Lake and Spudco? Those were good times man.

Dwain L.; Yea, we really screwed those babies up. (Dwain, caucus chuckles)

Kevin Y.; Remember the time you called Brad "the little thief from Swift Current"? I'm like "Go Dwain!" and you were like "He thinks he's so good". I think you really got to him.

Dwain L; Did I ever!

Darcy F.; I'm so angry!

Kevin Y.; And remember that time at the bar in Winnipeg? "I'm the Linkinator, are you Sarah Conner?" That gal didn't know what think.

Dwain L.; I'm not saying anything...(laughs)

(Judy J., Pat A. and Sandra M. chuckle, look at Dwain adoringly)

Kevin Y.; Buddy, things are changing. You can't do that s**t anymore. You gotta be nicer to people. Even Brad. People are starting to think you're too mean. It's not working anymore. You're going to screw us all the next election.

Dwain L.; F*** you, Pillsbury! You don't know me.

Sandra M.; Dwain, he's right...

Dwain L.; How yoooou doin'?

Candy Finnigan; Dwain, stop it!

Darcy F.; I'm so angry!

Kevin Y.; You're always angry, Darcy. Chill! Dwain, if you don't accept our help today, we won't be able to help you in the Leg anymore. We may not be able to support you in the party anymore. And I won't be your wing man anymore.

Dwain L.; That's bulls****t! You'll still be my wing man. I know you will.

Kevin Y.; I won't be man. You need to do this for you. And for all of us. At least until the next election. Can you try to be a bit nicer until the next election? Please?

Dwain L.; Well, I can try... OK, let's try to fool these guys. But only for a year, OK?

(caucus stands up and cheers, hugs Pat A.)

Pat A.; Ahem! Dwain.... Hands!

Kevin Y.; Oh, Dwain...

(caucus laughs)

Scene ends

Legislature Reunion!

I'm organizing a reunion of all the pages that served in the Saskatchewan Legislature in the 1980's. It will be nice to get together with them and their children.

If you were a page in the Leg in the 1980's, drop me an email.

A Grade 12 Student Getting Flattened By A Grade 8 Student

Dwain Lingenfelter vs. Roger Aldag - Myth or the stuff of legends?

BTW, see what happens to the Cowboys when Lingenfelter starts rooting for them? The Cowboys are 1-7 (or 12.5%), closely mirroring Lingenfelter's approval rating.

NDP Orc Alert - Chris Gallaway

As with our other blog, we want to make sure the public is aware that Letter to the Editor writers in many cases are not just your average citizen, but rather political hacks ...

Today's NDP Orc is Chris Gallaway with his November 06th LTTE in the Star Phoenix

Just your average concerned citizen writing about the the vitriol in the Legislature... Not so fast.

Here are the results from the 2007 Saskatchewan general election. Seems as though Mr. Gallaway was the NDP candidate in Martensville, gathering 18.24% of the popular vote.

In October of 2007, smalldeadanimals.com also featured Mr. Gallway as one of the candidates who sounded suspiciously like four other NDP candidates in the last election. If Gallaway had difficulty writing his own campaign material, did he actually write his own letter to the newspaper?

On the positive, with an 18.24% approval rating in Martensville, he still rates higher than Dwain Lingenfelter.

Maybe Mr. Gallaway has leadership aspirations?

Disrespecting The People's House

Another NDP up and comer, Trent Wotherspoon... Classy!

Buckley's Throne Speech Greatest Hits!

16.7%

I still think it's a tad high...

Even Mandryk gets it right this time

"Evidently, almost half of Saskatchewan's 29.4% of New Democrat supporters prefer Wall over Lingenfelter as Premier"

Keep performing your magic, Link! The people just don't understand you yet.

Premier Wall Emerges as a National Leader

Despite Dwain Lingenfelter, his union proxies and his back pocket media hack that Wall should have started earlier, the Premier got the job done.

Well done, Mr. Premier!

He Can Read?

Guess what book NDP MLA Kevin Yates was reading in the Legislature last night?

He must have borrowed it from the library.

Standing Up for the NDP and Nobody Else

Does the member represent the views of anything but cyncial and rude nature of Dwain Lingenfelter the NDP? How does this statement help secure good governance?

By the way, this is one of the NDP up and comers

This member's statement is an embarassment to the people of Saskatchewan and to the good people of PA Northcote.

A Fascinating Typo

Introducing Mr. Swain Lingenfelter...

 

noun

swain - a man who is the lover of a girl or young woman;



Leadership

Possibly the best political speech in Saskatchewan in a generation.

Well done, Mr.Premier...

Look At Me! Look A Me!

"I don`t think its a good idea either... Oh, and Brad Wall is a jerk!"

Lingenfelter reminds me of a yappy little dog that people are getting really tired of listening to.

Guess Who Else Is Back?

NDP Vice President and apparent homophobe Kent E. Peterson writes a bombastic letter to the Nipawin Journal.

Of course, as they always don't do, he never identifes himself as an NDP VP in the letter.

I guess Peterson forgot to mention his party leader's participation in Spudco, Channel Lake etc. as to why people should vote for the NDP. Those scandals and more are all talked about in Gormley's book (but he probably knows that already.)

BTW, Peterson got rid of his Humble Opinion blog but forgot about the cached version, which we saved. Lots of great stuff on there in the event he ever wants to run for public office. It truly does paint a vibrant picture as to Peterson's character. Peterson still runs the Sask Party Watch blog, the idea of which he lifted from us.

Whenever and wherever Peterson opens his mouth, it is political gold for the Sask Party.

Welcome back, Kent!

NDP By-Election Spin

By the Leader Post's own Murray Mandryk

"A week away from Saskatchewan's final pre-election throne speech, and a year away from a general election, politics in this province is now all about momentum.

That said, one should refrain from assuming too much after Monday night.

Notwithstanding that newly elected Saskatchewan Party MLA and Saskatoon city councillor Gordon Wyant increased his party's popular vote in the Saskatoon Northwest byelection (to 59 per cent from the 54 per cent former Sask. Party MLA Serge LeClerc garnered in this riding in 2007), some perspective is required.

Wyant was a "name" candidate, while NDP hopeful Jan Dyky (who also increased her party's popular vote to 33 per cent from 30 per cent) was not. Added to this equation is the fact that Saskatoon Northwest is a seat the NDP hasn't won in 15 years. There should be better barometers of the electoral mood in the coming year."

We were wondering how Dwain was going to spin Dyky's loss. Looks as though Mandryk was more than happy to help out.

NDP In-Fighting Goes Public

If this is the real regina_mom, there are some real issues within the NDP that will not be resolved until Lingenfelter resigns.

"Let this be a lesson for Dwain. The NDP will fail until he steps down to let the next generation lead"

Not that I mind...

Saskatoon Northwest Post-Mortem

Predictably, the Sask Party's Gord Wyant handily won the Saskatoon Northwest by-election over the NDP's Jan Dyky.

Here are the numbers...

1. Wyant won with (approx) 58.96% of the popular vote. By contrast, Serge LeClerc won 53.80% in the 2007 general election
2. Dyky won (approx) 33.06% of the popular vote. In the 2007 general election, Ken Winton-Grey won 29.66%.
3. In 2007, the provincial Liberals received 1238 votes, or 14.76% of the popular vote. In the 2010 Saskatoon NW by-election that vote collapsed, with the Liberal candidate Eric Steiner receiving only 157 votes, or 3.03% of the popular vote. In other words, the Liberal vote, not unlike the Green Party or the Progressive Conservative votes are merely friends, family and protest votes

But here are the political parts...

1. The NDP came out with the smear piece on Wyant immediately out of the gate. There was huge push back on the piece on the door step. Their subsequent pieces were not nearly as inflammatory
2. The NDP/Unions decided to call union members in the constituency and tell them that if Gord Wyant was elected, Brad Wall would sell PCS to BHP Billiton and they would all lose their jobs. This tactic shows utter contempt for union workers by their executives and the NDP by assuming union workers are not smart enough to make political decisions on their own.
3. Both Dale Schmeichel, the NDP provincial secretary (on the Richard Brown Show) and Dwain Lingenfelter predicted there would be a huge surprise in the by-election. The huge surprise never materialized (other than the fact that people are still voting for the NDP).
4. The last refuge of the damned... marginalizing women. In a final act of desperation, the NDP's last tactic was to "make history" and elect the first woman MLA in Saskatoon Northwest. The NDP don't understand how this is "tokenism"
5. Both Lingenfelter and Dyky just don't get it... On Newstalk650 Lingenfelter claims that the Saskatoon NW consituency is "in the bag" in 2011 and that the NDP would win the general election in 2011. Refer to John Gormley's book Left Out about any politician that refers to the term "in the bag".
6. Dyky told Wyant to enjoy the seat "for a year" but that she was coming back to get the seat in 2011. I believe the voters will be making that decision, not the NDP.

The NDP are completely out of touch with the majority of Saskatchewan residents. They believe that the political smear and whistling past the graveyard is a successful political strategy. Dyky's remarks are the quintessential definition of Rand's postulate "there are no contradictions". She and Lingenfelter are political soul mates.

And both political losers.

Congratulations to the Sask Party and Gord Wyant and for running a honorable campaign.

The NDP, Dyky and Lingenfelter, not so much.

Welcome NDP Watch!

One of the other reasons I decided to bring back the NDP Boogeyman was because I was going to get some help. This blogging stuff can get a bit overwhelming.

NDP Watch has done an excellent job of keeping an eye on NDP tactics for the past few months. We believe that in concert we can be better as one blog with the same mission.

Please welcome the NDP Watch team and we look forward to continuing exposing NDP lies, deceit and hypocrisy in Saskatchewan.

I'm baaaaaaaack....

After a prolonged three year hiatus (has it really been that long?), I've decided to step back into the blogging world.

I was planning on coming back for the election campaign in 2011, but a few issues caught my eye and they need the NDP Boogeyman light shone on them.

My promise, to expose the NDP on their own tactics and once again prove that they are unfit to govern our beloved Saskatchewan.

Let the fun begin!
