  • If You Love Saskatchewan…
    If you love Saskatchewan…. Help stop the quiet selling off of our public services The Brad Wall government is quietly starting to privatize our public services. Here are some examples: HEALTH CARE Private, for-profit clinics will now be permitted to offer surgeries in Regina and Saskatoon. The government's move to re-direct $5.5 million in public funds to finance private surgeries and diagnostic tests will mean: . higher costs; . less money for public health services; and . fewer health professionals in the public system. Higher costs The costs of surgeries in private, for-profit clinics will escalate after the initial 'introductory offer', according to the Saskatchewan Health Coalition. For example, the Alberta Health Services says the cost of hip and knee surgery in Edmonton's Royal Alexander Hospital is $4,500, while the cost in the for-profit Health Resources Centre is $14,000. Less money for public health services Diverting government funds to private clinics means less for publicly delivered services. The government has recently put a hold on $3 million in capital funding for a new public outpatient surgical care centre in Regina. Money for more staff and resources that would boost the public health system is now being siphoned off into the pockets of private companies. Staff shortages worsen There is a province-wide shortage of health professionals. Spreading our limited human resources across two systems - public and private - does not solve the problem. In fact, it will make the staff shortages in the public health system worse. We need to maximize staff recruitment and retention in our public hospitals.

Over the course of three years, he published two books on Saskatchewan and Quebec (Canadian provinces) social democratic politics in the (McGrane, 2011, 2014), a considerable accomplishment. This research on Saskatchewan and Quebec social democratic governments is important to students of public sector innovation because these provinces have often been the most innovative in Canada (see also, for example, Glor, 1997, 2002 in which I identify 159 innovations of the Saskatchewan government of 1971- 82). This suggest ideology may be important to innovation.
