Here's what the 2024 Saskatchewan election parties are promising.

Sask Party

  • Reduce income taxes

    "A Saskatchewan Party government will reduce income taxes again for every taxpayer in Saskatchewan.

    1. A family of four will save more than $3,400 over the next four years under the Saskatchewan Party Plan.
    2. A senior couple will save more than $3,100 over the next four years under the Saskatchewan Party Plan.
    3. The plan will result in another 54,000 low-income individuals no longer paying provincial income tax – in addition to the 112,000 individuals who already pay no income tax because of previous Saskatchewan Party income tax reductions."

Sask United

  • Reduce the PST to 3%

    "We recognize the difficulties many families encounter in making ends meet, and we are dedicated to offer- ing relief and support where it is most needed. That’s why we have established a goal to cut the Provincial Sales Tax (PST) in half, from 6% to 3%. This reduction would put more money back into the hands of hard- working families and individuals throughout the province." — The Sask United Blueprint for Change, retrieved 2024-10-20

  • Remove the Provincial Gas Tax

    "We understand how the rising cost of living affects families, which is why we are committed to eliminating the Provincial Gas Tax. By removing this 15 cent per litre tax on fuel we aim to alleviate financial pressure on families, make everyday necessities more affordable, and promote economic growth throughout Saskatchewan." — The Sask United Blueprint for Change, retrieved 2024-10-20
