Saskatchewan Lt-Gov. Russ Mirasty is scheduled to lay out the province’s priorities in a throne speech this afternoon, as a new session of the legislature begins.
The Saskatchewan Party government provided some hints earlier this week about its focus.
It said it is to include a bill outlining the province’s rights over its natural resources.
Premier Scott Moe also said there will be an announcement about a new trade office in the European Union.
The priorities build off last year, when Moe promised to build a stronger, more independent province.
Opposition NDP Leader Carla Beck, who is returning from a tour of the province, says residents are concerned with the rising cost of living and health care.
She says she will go to bat for people the government is leaving behind.
