The Station 20 West project should not become a political football, as
some people want it to be. All the arguments should be based on the
merits of the project itself and the benefits of the project to the
whole of the west side.
The last series of actions by " the government in power " is a
statement to the people of the west side of Saskatoon about what they
think of us here in the poorer areas of Saskatoon. They think that we
don't count and that they can do anything they want to us.
It is time that we as a group of people step up and get everyone
involved. We need to say enough, look at the west side, say we matter
and we understand economics.
It really does not matter which government promised the money. The
money is needed for the project because this project is needed; that
is the bottom line. We have to convince the government in power that
this project will make it on its own and the numbers are there. The
voice of the average person has to be heard. This is a new
Saskatchewan so are we going to do things right and get everyone to
share in it or are we going to let them walk all over us?
Come out to the walk on Saturday and do your part. Call an MLA and
talk to them. Find out the facts and let the government know that this
project is more than just a mall, it is needed. It will be a one more
step for the people of this area to be part of the New Saskatchewan.
