STATEMENT FROM SASKATCHEWAN NDP SHADOW MINISTER FOR CORRECTIONS AND POLICING NICOLE SARAUER

It’s incredibly concerning to see two homicides in just two days over the long weekend in Saskatoon.  

We used to be the province where you kept your doors unlocked, but after 18 years of the Sask. Party, crime is out of control. 

We need to get tough on crime and tough on the causes of crime – that means investing in more frontline municipal police officers and RCMP. 

Every dollar spent on the Marshal’s bureaucracy is essentially a dollar cut from municipal police and the RCMP.
