Saskatchewan Party Leader Scott Moe will make an announcement in North Battleford this morning as the provincial election campaign marks one week since it was officially called.
NDP Leader Carla Beck, meanwhile, is scheduled to be outside Pasqua Hospital in Regina.
Beck and other NDP candidates have focused much of the campaign so far on health care in Saskatchewan, but yesterday she told reporters in Regina an NDP government would hire 100 Mounties and municipal police officers if elected on Oct. 28.
She says the money would come from redirecting funds from the incumbent Saskatchewan Party’s marshals service
Moe yesterday pledged a re-elected Saskatchewan Party government would introduce a 50 per cent refundable tax credit — up to $10,000 — to help cover the cost of a first fertility treatment.
He also promised to make it easier to screen for cervical cancer by allowing women 25 to 69 to have self-screening tests for the human papillomavirus infection, or HPV.
