Gee Lorne, Government is Hard!

In another surprising move, the SP pulled the Humboldt Court of Queen's Bench when they learned that being the government is harder than just shouting a whole bunch of crazy shit every day from opposition benches:

The Saskatchewan Party government is cutting Court of Queen's Bench services in Humboldt, a move the party decried as an attack on rural Saskatchewan when it was proposed under the previous NDP government eight years ago.
(Saskatoon StarPhoenix, May 1/08)

The article goes on to say that when the NDP tried to do this, the SP claimed there was no consultation and that it was an attack on rural Saskatchewan.

So, surely, now that the SP is pulling the governmental strings, they set things right. Right?

[Don Morgan] acknowledged there was no consultation with the municipality or local legal community before the decision was made in this year's budget.

Oops.

We'll see if Wall will be reaching out to rural Saskatchewan as much as he's reaching out to labour.
