	Saskatchewan general election, 1964 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Saskatchewan general election of 1964 was the fifteenth provincial election held in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan.
		While the CCF held on to most of their vote from the previous election, the collapse of the Social Credit Party appears to have helped the Liberals to a majority government, although the Liberals led the NDP by only 0.1% in the popular vote.
		Lloyd was faced several challenges: the taxes in Saskatchewan were among the highest in Canada; spending on health care, welfare and education were high; and Lloyd lacked the popular support that previous CCF leader and premier Tommy Douglas had enjoyed.

	Elections Saskatchewan: Office of the Chief Electoral Officer
		Under The Election Act, 1996 (Saskatchewan) (the "Election Act") the Office is responsible for the administration of provincial elections, by-elections, enumerations (other than during a writ of election) and provincial election finances.
		Increased compliance with the election finances provisions of the legislation will be achieved through the direct involvement of political parties, candidates, official agents and business managers in the development of a full range of simplified assistance tools to be provided by Elections Saskatchewan, resulting in reduced investigation and enforcement activity.
		While the Election Act is regulatory, rather than criminal, the role of the Office is to inspect, investigate and inquire instances where contravention of the Election Act is suspected or alleged, as deemed necessary by the Chief Electoral Officer.

	TIJ Book: Chapter 10
		In a Saskatchewan of substantial differences among the populations of constituencies, with a bias toward the rural, this was not a natural majority, and the NDP was typically only elected when it ran against two opposition parties that split the vote.
		Saskatchewan's pursuit of innovative strategies can also be seen in the adoption of governmental investment in energy resources during the mid 1970s, in an environment of perceived scarcity of oil and gas and therefore energy generally.
		Saskatchewan was found to have been an administrative innovator, based on having created and adopted early 34 innovations, and to have exhibited the trait of innovativeness, more than would have been expected of a government of its size, and more than have been identified for any other governments of any size at the time.

		It's no coincidence that the party's slogan this election was, "We're ready." Charest just as often intoned, "I'm ready," an open reminder that, last time, he was not.
		Charest was born on June 24, 1958 in the Eastern Townships city of Sherbrooke.

		After the 1999 provincial election, there was a stark and obvious fissure: when the dust settled, Saskatchewan's NDP held the biggest cities, but they were surrounded by a sea of rural Saskatchewan Party MLAs.
		Unless the Saskatchewan Party does something to alienate its rural base by Nov. 5, its hope of taking power rests on whether those urban voters who want change trust the party to deliver it without hurting their interests.
		The Saskatchewan Party and the NDP appeared to be in a dead heat in the days before the Nov. 5 election.

	EDITORIAL: The people's governor general (01/05/03) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The grandson of illiterate Ukrainians who settled in Saskatchewan near the turn of the last century, Ray Hnatyshyn enjoyed the type of life most immigrants and the generations that follow them dream about.
		And beyond the trappings of power and the vice-regal nature of his governor general's duties, he was always quick with a quip, often at his own expense, which earned him great affection.
		A year after becoming Canada's 24th governor general, he participated in the centennial celebrations of Ukrainian settlement in Canada in 1991 and, a year later, became the first Western leader to visit the then newly independent Ukraine with a much-celebrated stop at his father's birthplace in Bukovyna, western Ukraine.

		These eight provincial and federal general elections, out of 41 tilts, are the only occasions when B.C. voters have made the CCF-NDP the province's dominant political entity.
		In the 1941 provincial general election, the CCF garnered more votes than any other party, but finished with seven fewer seats than the Liberals.
		With increasingly-unpopular NDP governments in Canada's two-largest English-speaking provinces, perhaps it was inevitable that the party's federal wing would feel voters' wrath in the 1993 general election, but the results were shocking nonetheless.

		Saskatchewan's Heritage Fund differed from Alberta's in that only a portion of the revenues was intended to be used for investments in the crown corporations and the economic development of the province.
		The major factor in Saskatchewan's economic development during the 1970s was increased prices for crops and resources; Saskatchewan benefited as it lost again when prices fell during the 1980s.
		The Government of Saskatchewan owned 30% of the pulp mill from the time of its construction in the 1960s and this continued until the late 1970s when the Government of Saskatchewan bought up the remaining 70% and became 100% owner of the Prince Albert Pulp Company.

		He says that influence peddling in attorney general races has not become the major problem it is in other contests, but he thinks that it is unfortunate for an office expected to enforce the law without favoritism.
		Stenehjem, the North Dakota attorney general, acknowledges that RAGA members are generally more pro-business than their Democratic counterparts, but resists suggestions that RAGA members would swear off class actions or multistate litigation against corporations.
