Saskatchewan NDP and Party Offer Competing Health and Disability Proposals

As the provincial election approaches, NDP leader Carla Beck commits $1 billion to healthcare, while Premier Scott Moe focuses on disability support and fertility treatment incentives.

Carla Beck of the Saskatchewan NDP promises a $1.1 billion investment to address healthcare staff shortages and reduce wait times.
The NDP's plan emphasizes hiring, training, and retaining healthcare workers to combat critical staffing issues, particularly in cancer care.
Scott Moe's Saskatchewan Party proposes a 25% increase in disability tax credits and a $1,000 increase in income exemptions for disability support.
Moe also pledges a 50% refundable tax credit, up to $10,000, for first-time fertility treatments and promotes self-screening for cervical cancer.
Former Saskatchewan Party member Randy Weekes endorses Beck, citing leadership concerns within Moe's government.
