Affordability
The cost of living has spiralled out of control and it is time for bold action. The NCP will implement a comprehensive affordability strategy that includes:
- A new Saskatchewan Dignity Dividend to ensure everyone can meet their basic needs.
- Raising the minimum wage to $25/hour, indexed to inflation.
- Implementing a rent freeze followed by rent control measures to keep housing affordable.
- Creating new Crown Corporations in multiple sectors to ensure public ownership and control over essential services, at a guaranteed affordable price.
