Premier Brian Pallister used his State of the Province address this week to champion a new economic development plan.

 

The premier said the new strategy will be under a deadline and will focus on developing specific goals, as opposed to the current premier’s Enterprise team---which is more advisory. Opposition NDP leader Wab Kinew says he was discouraged by the speech and was hoping to hear a more specific plan from the province.

 

Pallister also touched on a number of other topics during his speech, including the upcoming legalization of marijuana, reconciliation and health care.
