The Chair: — Good morning. This is the Standing Committee on Health Care. It’s a committee of the Legislative Assembly. And the motive for the Saskatoon Health Oasis is not to Our first order of business is to receive and report on responses reinvent the wheel but to create a different healing paradigm to the Fyke Commission. and a different healing modality, and to encompass . to work together instead of work separate from. I’m Judy Junor, the Chair of the committee. Dr. Melenchuk is the Vice-Chair, Andrew Thomson, Warren McCall, Buckley And I’ve . basically what I’ve done is . Of course we all Belanger, Brenda Bakken, and Rod Gantefoer are members of know what health is and we know what disease is and I feel the committee. personally that the medical system is not efficient by itself.

The World Health Organization says that 85 per cent of We’ve given presenters half an hour, and that includes their illnesses that kill us are preventable. And so in working with presentation as well as, hopefully, some question period for the prevention and . prevention, as I see in the Fyke report, is committee members to ask. explained differently than we believe in complimentary therapies.

I’d like to begin by saying that the pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every And the principles are personal responsibility, accessibility, difficulty. And I really see this is the reasoning for the Fyke equity and equality, geographic availability, illness and health, report or we wouldn’t be here today. fostering change. And I have put this report together very briefly. I didn’t have The health system must enable all citizens to live a healthy life much time to put it together and, because of human frailty, I in healthy surroundings. Health services must be reasonable and may have not things in order. available in all areas of the province. There must be an equal emphasis on health promotion and prevention of disease and But in any case, this presentation, I have a package that I’ve put accidents. We must acknowledge and maximize opportunity for together with a letter of support from the College of Physicians useful and timely changes in the health care system. and Surgeons.

I really feel that we Saskatoon District Health Board in order to assist this facility to basically are complementary therapists. We are people that take place. Dr. Joe Schnurr and myself are at the business plan work very hard at presenting a paper in terms of health care, stages of the Saskatoon Health Oasis. and we were not recognized anywhere. I believe that the year 2001 is the opportunity to realize Tommy But I also do see some good things that have happened here Douglas’s dream, phase 2 of health care. where I really believe that . on page 19 it says: “Less need for services through prevention, early intervention and disease In discussion with Pat Atkinson as to how this could happen, management.” And I think that’s a very positive statement. and my recommendation for this is to work this in terms of coverage, which is a concern of a lot of people in this province, Page 25, interdisciplinary teamwork. And again, are we how these processes can be covered or how these treatments can included in the interdisciplinary teamwork because we are part be covered, and I made a recommendation to Pat Atkinson of a team. I refer to physicians all the time. I have physicians when we met, is that partial coverage to the client or to the that work with me. The day before yesterday a physician called patient. me and was really concerned about a patient taking an herbal medicine and having a reaction. And she didn’t know anything And the patient . say, for instance, six treatments be paid for about that reaction and so she called me. and then any additional treatments can be paid for from the person’s pocket. And that was a way that I thought was fair to The College of Pharmacy calls me at the university when they everybody. And also the person could take responsibility have a client that can’t take traditional western medicine and instead of shoving that responsibility all onto the government. seeing if there’s an option for them. And so people feel equal partnership in their healing. And so I’m basically working . I’ve been working for the last Inclusion in relationship I think is what I’m asking for here 20 years to try and get holistic medicine recognized in this today, and also an opportunity to be heard. province.

  • News April Fool$
    News For Immediate Release April 1, 2008 April Fool$ MLAs now paid 15.4 percent more than in 2006 Transition Allowances up 30 percent REGINA: MLA pay has increased by 15.4 percent in just two years, from a taxable equivalent of $73,173 to $84,409 today, says the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF). Wage hikes mandated by an all-party committee in 2006 led to the drastic increases. The basic MLA indemnity rose to $82,110 following the last election, to be indexed for inflation each April 1. A 2.8 percent increase gives cabinet ministers an annual wage of $127,384. Deputy Premier Ken Krawetz will make $133,523, and Premier Wall, $145,799. Even though the Cumberland seat is vacant, total wages now reach $5.85 million. The average salary is currently $102,783, since fully 37 of the 57 sitting MLAs receive bonuses for additional duties. Roles include premier, opposition leader, house leader or deputy house leader, speaker, deputy speaker, cabinet minister, committee chair or deputy chair, whip or deputy whip. These amounts would be even higher had the government not declined to pay the $12,560 to which the seven legislative secretaries would otherwise be entitled. “Most constituents could only dream of this much money,” said Lee Harding, Saskatchewan Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. “In January, the average weekly earnings of Saskatchewan people was $731.72, which translates to an annual wage of $38,049. The average MLA earns more than two-and-a-half times that amount, insulating them from the financial realities of the constituents they represent.

  • Report of the Parliamentary Delegation to Western Canada
    REPORT OF THE PARLIAMENTARY DELEGATION TO WESTERN CANADA JUNE 2014 Presented by the Hon. Barry House MLC President of the Legislative Council 26 June 2014 21 Page Members of the Western Australian parliamentary delegation at the British Columbia Legislature with Clerk of the Legislative Assembly, Mr Craig James 3 I Page Introduction Western Australia and the Western Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and British Columbia share a great number of similarities, including parliamentary institutions, socio-economic circumstances, issues of national-provincial relations, indigenous matters and cultural diversity. Both Western Australia and Western Canada are resource rich, have very extensive agricultural undertakings, deal with vast and often remote areas, experience some climatic extremes, and have medical, educational, and other challenges, particularly in remote areas. At the parliamentary level, even though British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan are unicameral and Western Australia is bicameral, we have evolved from a similar background and have Houses and Committees operating under similar circumstances. In 2012, the idea was mooted to establish a much closer association between the Parliaments of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Western Australia by an initial exchange of delegations. The aim of this exchange program was to encourage practical professional development through learning from each other, examination of practices and by the sharing of information and experiences amongst members and parliamentary staff in the respective legislatures. The three Canadian Provinces, particularly Saskatchewan, welcomed a closer association with the State of Western Australia, and it was therefore proposed that the first delegation would come from Saskatchewan to Western Australia in September 2013, and a return delegation from Western Australia to Saskatchewan in the first half of 2014.

    Dear SGEU member: The Saskatchewan government is proposing to privatize food services in our adult corrections and young offender centres in Regina, Saskatoon and Prince Albert. This move will result in the elimination of 64 SGEU member positions and could be a first step towards the full-scale privatization of corrections and young offender services. It is a further erosion of the strong public services SGEU members are proud to provide and that make our province a great place to live. Help us stop the privatization of corrections food services.
