  1. Wow. To be any worse, the Sask Party would need to do something like use tax dollars to pay the $100,000 salaries of office workers employed by private corpora- oh wait.

    The Wall government acts like it's trying to build up goodwill from corporate friends. Too bad corporations aren't people. As soon as the accountants say it'd be cheaper to leave, they're gone, and no years-gone subsidies will change the equation. So long and thanks for all the cheap potash. You need to provide a stable and sensible environment for business, special no-strings-attached bonuses aren't necessary.
