    Auto Steer, we were counting the major accomplishments the Devine Intervention left us with and you even thought of more. Wasn't the cow-calf program his too? If every politician had his hutzpah, Saskatchewan would probably look different today because he barely got off the ground in nine years. But surely he planted some seed in the young minds he got to mold since then at the Ag College.

      What would the province have looked like without Grant Devine? All we need to remember is Belle Plains Fertilizer plant, Rafherty Power Dam, College of Agriculture building, heavy upgraders in Lloyd and Regina, local community nursing homes, privatized potash industry to make it more profitable, sold off unused road building equipment, brought in GRIP, put in under ground power, and list could go on like at one point in his term there were more oil rigs working in Saskatchewan than Alberta (contrary to the NDP's comment of the oil stopped at the border)! Now that was real leadership and vision. Grant Devine you had a vision for Saskatchewan which benefited the whole province - thank you for making Saskatchewan a stronger province!
