Learn moreOur Mission
We seek to replace Saskatoon’s post-war pattern of development, the Suburban Experiment, with a pattern of development that is financially strong and resilient. We advocate for Saskatoon to be safe, livable, and inviting. We work to elevate local government to be the highest level of collaboration for people working together in a place, not merely the lowest level in a hierarchy of governments.
Our Campaigns
End Highway Expansion
Highway expansion is the primary mechanism of local wealth destruction and municipal insolvency. We oppose the Saskatoon Freeway project and any further highway expansion.
Transparent Local Accounting
We seek to reveal the financial implications of the Suburban Experiment by increasing the transparency of local government accounting practices.
