SASK. PARTY HAS NO MAJOR ECONOMIC PROJECT LIST TO SHOW

Scott Moe, Ministers, Either Asleep At The Wheel Or Hiding Something

SASKATOON – With the federal government set to unveil its list of approved nation-building projects in the coming days, Scott Moe continues to keep Saskatchewan people in the dark about what major economic projects — if any — it has submitted for fast-tracked approval.

The Sask. Party government refused to release the province's list in response to a freedom of information request from the Official Opposition.

“If they actually have a list of projects that could create jobs and grow our economy, they shouldn’t be afraid to share it in full,” said Kim Breckner, Saskatchewan NDP Shadow Minister for Trade & Export Development. “Our economy is heading in the wrong direction, and people shouldn’t be left to wonder whether their government is asleep at the wheel.”

“This government is slow, ineffective and constantly hides from the public decisions that are critical to our economic future.”

Under the Building Canada Act (Bill C-5), passed this spring, Ottawa has new authority to advance nation-building projects that strengthen Canada’s autonomy, resilience, and security in the face of U.S. tariffs and strained cross-border relations.

Ottawa has signaled that eligible projects could include infrastructure, energy, and resource development—ranging from nuclear power to pipelines.

“After 18 years in power, the Sask. Party is out of touch and out of ideas,” said Hugh Gordon, Saskatchewan NDP Shadow Minister for Highways and Infrastructure. “We finally have some consensus in this country to get major projects built and the Sask. Party has nothing to show.”

“This is another massive opportunity that this slow and ineffective government is going to let slip through its fingers — ultimately, it’s Saskatchewan workers that will pay the price for their repeated failures.”

The Saskatchewan NDP has been calling for both the federal and provincial governments to focus on trade-enabling infrastructure — including ports, rail lines, pipelines, and power lines — that expand access to global markets and secure long-term prosperity for Saskatchewan people.

“This is a chance to start building a brighter future,” said Breckner.
