It's been a long time since Ralph Klein held up the 'Paid-in-Full' sign . . .

I remember Sask Savings Bonds. Seems they are no more and as long as we can keep the greenies out of here maybe we won't end up like our brothers the west and our credit will be good. Remember when we wanted to join Sask and Alberta? Now what do you think about that?
