In Scott Moe’s Saskatchewan, public policy appears to be open to the “highest bidder.”

Thanks to lax regulations for campaign financing, Premier Moe’s Saskatchewan Party has lined its pockets with donations from corporate landlords, oil and gas companies, financial firms, and the largest landowner in the province.

Since Moe became premier in 2018, the Saskatchewan Party has raised over $6.7 million in corporate donations.

Many of those contributions are from businesses outside Saskatchewan, including Alberta, Ontario, and Manitoba.

How is this different from other politicians?

All right wing politicians follow the same route. Occasionally you will find a left wing politician who doesn't.

Why the right isn’t big on education. Would gut their voting base.
