MODERATORS
I’m sure the conservatives will continue trying to figure out a way to push it to withering and crumbling… they definitely tried to sell off/privatize chunks of them in the past but the level of outrage they were met with has put those ideas to bed for the time being
It's a tough fight for them because of how familiar the population is with those corps.
Lab services in Sask have bounced between private and public several times... Nobody really notices (which is sad IMO)
But SGI and SaskTel... Everyone is a client, and everyone can look over any provincial border and go "whoa, don't wanna end up like them".
"This part of the Crown corporation is profitable on its own, we should sell it off!"
"Why are we spending so much money to subsidize this Crown corporation!? We should sell it off!"
