Don't be sheep - either ask Wall what he means or don't complain when he says things like this.Display Namehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16746864230429176717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879888271139368021.post-85833457652312955242007-07-02T22:33:00.000-06:002007-07-02T22:33:00.000-06:00This is a huge victory for now.

As Brad Wall has commented he still favours working on trade agreements between provinces. I understand his main reasons for opposing the agreement is due to "new growth tax incentives" and tax abatements could be challenged under TILMA. If you notice he never expressed any concerns how this agreement negatively affects working people such as labour standards, the trade union act etc. Combine this with a recent article during the hearings that said SK party may lose electoral support if they continue to support TILMA makes you wonder if this is a political ploy to gain votes. Also makes you wonder what kind of inter-provincial trade deal would be signed if he gained power.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879888271139368021.post-9851404565162070392007-06-29T09:17:00.000-06:002007-06-29T09:17:00.000-06:00Loretta, I agree totally!

That and the tenacity and hard work in the trenches by the committee that has done so much work here is what made the difference.<BR/><BR/>I feel good today! Working people in Saskatchewan should feel good as well!leftdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936887870919391739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879888271139368021.post-2774066762240766152007-06-29T08:54:00.000-06:002007-06-29T08:54:00.000-06:00Congrats to everyone.

In fact, I think the SFL should truly be celebrating the fact that their informed, tireless lobby has not only moved political parties, but got us a public consultation and created serious public education. <BR/><BR/>Our victories are so few and far between that I hope the people involved in this one are taking the time to celebrate and be proud!!<BR/><BR/>Loretta GerlachAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879888271139368021.post-2568047748548195442007-06-29T08:19:00.000-06:002007-06-29T08:19:00.000-06:00While this is good news indeed, people should not ...While this is good news indeed, people should not forget how quick Wall and his party moved to iniitally embrace Tilma.<BR/><BR/>They have a record of knee jerk reactions. Their hatred of organized labour is such that any measure they believe will hobble working people is always accepted sight unseen. But now that workers, business and others can see how flawed the agreement is, the Saskies are knee jerking the other way. Don't trust them!<BR/><BR/>Here is a big tip of the hat to the SFL for tirelessly bringing this issue forward!!leftdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936887870919391739noreply@blogger.com
