The suggestion that independent MLA Nadine Wilson resign her seat and face voters may be more about concern about a new far\u002Dright party.
Eight MLAs — half elected as PCs, the other half as Liberals — with help from federal Reform Party operatives, formed the Saskatchewan Party in 1997.
So you might expect a Saskatchewan Party premier would be the last person to suggest the need for a byelection over such a defection. Moe offered up the example of Buckley Belanger, who resigned to run in a byelection in 1998 when he jumped from the Liberals to the NDP in the wake of the Saskatchewan Party’s birth.
Nobody had voted on the merits of a Moe-led party in 2016 when the Saskatchewan Party was re-elected under Brad Wall. Wall bolted in 2017 after unleashing an unpopular austerity budget on the province. Plus, Moe lifted pandemic measures amid record COVID-19 hospitalizations and infections and then shut down daily reporting. Undoubtedly, many voters would like to weigh in now.
