Report from the Legislature
May 27, 2026
The Spring Sitting of the Second Session of the Thirtieth Legislature concluded on May 14, 2026. Our government advanced key priorities focused on protecting Saskatchewan through affordability, health care, community safety, education, and economic growth. Throughout this sitting, we remained focused on keeping life affordable for Saskatchewan families while supporting a strong and resilient provincial economy. This year’s budget reflects this approach, with investments strengthening programs and services, supporting communities, and ensuring Saskatchewan remains well-positioned for the future. The 2026-27 provincial budget is available online at www.budget.saskatchewan.ca.
We also saw the passage of several important pieces of legislation introduced in the fall sitting, advancing commitments made in the Throne Speech. These included The Compassionate Intervention Act, which creates a pathway for families, law enforcement, and the courts to initiate treatment supports for individuals unable to seek help on their own; The Building Schools Faster Act, which improves processes for timely school construction with municipalities; The Saskatchewan Fi****ms Amendment Act, which strengthens provincial protections for law-abiding fi****ms owners in relation to federally directed fi****ms policies; and The Saskatchewan Internal Trade Promotion Act, which reduces interprovincial trade barriers and supports economic growth.
Also included were The Tailgating Act, which enables tailgating events prior to Saskatchewan Roughriders games and other major events; The Cyberstalking and Coercive Control Act, which strengthens protections for victims of interpersonal violence; and The Heritage Recognition (From Many Peoples, Strength) Act, which establishes a framework to recognize Saskatchewan’s cultural and heritage observances.
Additional measures included The Municipalities Modernization and Red Tape Reduction Act, which reduces administrative duplication and streamlines municipal processes; The Response to Illicit Drugs Act, which strengthens tools to address drug-related crime and enhances accountability; and The Income Tax Amendment Act, which doubles the volunteer first responders tax credit to support community responders.
Our government’s priorities were guided by the Throne Speech and the 2024 election commitments, and we are pleased to have delivered on all our promises. With a continued focus on protecting Saskatchewan and supporting long-term growth for the benefit of everyone who calls our province home, we will continue to be out in communities. We look forward to engaging with residents, local organizations and businesses and to listening to how we can best support the needs of Saskatchewan people.
Moving into the summer months, Saskatchewan’s provincial parks are now open across the province, welcoming residents and visitors for another season of outdoor recreation. Our government is pleased to see preparations completed for campsites and trails, and we thank all staff who have worked hard to ensure parks are ready for visitors. A full slate of programming and seasonal events is also available and can be explored on the Sask Parks website under the event calendar at www.saskparks.com.
