2026 Annual General Meeting Notice
The federal strychnine ban must not be revoked.
The Saskatchewan Green Party opposes the Saskatchewan and Alberta governments' request that the federal ban on the use of strychnine be lifted. A return to using this toxic chemical to control gopher populations harms other wildlife and the environment. It’s not limited to the Richardson Ground Squirrels. The risk to burrowing owls and the swift fox, which are not targets of the strychnine but species likely to be harmed, is much too high.
Richardson Ground Squirrels loosen soil, and this aeration allows it to soak up more moisture for plants to grow, which is actually a benefit to farmers.
Instead of demanding the federal government reinstate the use of strychnine to poison gophers, Saskatchewan and Alberta should encourage natural predators of the Richardson Ground Squirrel. That is a more natural way to reinstate balance in the ecosystem.
Read the Feb 2026 Leaders Message
In 2026, the World Day of Social Justice is commemorated under the theme “Renewed Commitment to Social Development and Social Justice.” This year's observance takes place at a critical juncture, following the Second World Summit for Social Development and the adoption of the Doha Political Declaration. In reaffirming the commitments of the 1995 Copenhagen Declaration, Member States have underscored poverty eradication, full and productive employment and decent work for all, and social inclusion as the interrelated pillars of social development.
This year’s theme reflects both recognition of progress achieved and acknowledgement of persistent and emerging challenges. While significant gains have been recorded in poverty reduction, education and social protection coverage, structural inequalities, labour market informality, gender disparities, and declining trust in institutions continue to impede inclusive and sustainable development. A renewed commitment, therefore, entails strengthening policy coherence across economic, social, and environmental dimensions, reinforcing multilateral cooperation, and placing equity and solidarity at the center of global policymaking.
The Saskatchewan Green Party confirms our commitment this World Day of Social Justice to the importance of fairness, equity, and human rights. We encourage reflection on the systems and conditions that create inequality and exclusion, and the shared responsibility to build more inclusive communities.
Contact your MLA, call-to-action in support of SAID recipients
When the SaskParty created SAID in 2009 and expanded it dramatically in 2011-2012, Brad Wall stood before the province and declared his government's goal was "to make Saskatchewan the best place in Canada to live for people with disabilities."
SAID was created as a dignified benefit for people with enduring disabilities. Sweeping amendments are being made to SAID policy regulations; they take effect on April 1st. These new regulations will absolutely create increased reliance on other community supports and drive homelessness in our communities. This government is now proposing to take away opportunity and safety nets that cost very little in a provincial budget – but are so needed for people with disabilities!
