I realize we reached beyond our borders to fill some the positions, but we accept "talent and ability" from anywhere!

Richard, this govt cancelled film tax credit because it was against Subsidies.
And then Creates a Subsidy
to help arts. WTF

Is there an Anti Spin, Anti Bullshit portfolio ? I am pretty sure this govt DOES NOT have anyone in this portfolio.
So I pick me. LOL

[mustardman]

by the way this is a Flat out subsidy whereas before it was a Tax credit.

This costs govt revenue, much more than previous program. But Brad never told us that

[hobbyfrmr]

I would be most comfortable in the peanut gallery. Or one of those sqwaky geese making noise and being just plain old unproductive and annoying.

Mustard I don't see the difference.

Provide a tax credit and it may appear that it only provides a benefit when the arts company files the tax return

Send out a grant and its all spent to pay for goods and services, payroll, fuel and supplies etc etc etc creating all kinds of fed & provincial taxes

What am I missing as this is how it think it through

[bucket]

A tax credit is available after you spent your own money.

A grant is you apply. If they deny it you don't spend any money. If they approve it they spend taxpayers dollars.

A bit of a difference.

I respectfully wish to decline the invitation for the Ministry of "Municipal Affairs"

However if the Crown Corps position is still available you'd have someone who would get some power generated from previously wasted and underutilized sources and there would be a high speed rural internet system and "cellphone" type communication that actually worked as intended.

And Trans Gas and Sask Energy wouldn't be constrained by some landowner holdout who received his rural gas service courtesy of cooperative neighbors; and now won't allow extension to a nearby "neighbor".

And I do know what a "conflict of interest" is without signing an affidavit or attending further training courses.

Won't last more than a couple terms so no fears of making it into a career.

Your humble servant....even Amen. When does campaigning begin?.

Bucket for Dep't of Holidays.
And the premier won't have to tell you to keep in close contact with your Dep't of Highways office downtown where your bureaucrat is responsible for any infrastructure designed for rail beds, warehousing or steel track that might be used for locomotive or rail car use within Sask.

You won't need much further direction on what needs to be done to serve the interests of this province....and its businesses and electorate.

Tom4G3 for pope.

[riders2010]

Hahaha farma I like it! there are some good ones in here Tom for pope!!!lol

But really I don't hate the oil, Its the idea that it controls our government totally that isn t right. There is a whole lot more to this province than the oil. A lot of people have been hurt financially miles more than the oil industry and what has freeride said about anything else? That's my beef primarily. Second is that the world is headed to not using as much oil and we are full blown going all in? I truly think with the thousands of miles across the country a strategy of cheap oil to get our goods out from sask and Manitoba would do a hundred times more benefit in the long run.
