Sask NDP leader Carla Beck revealed a new four-part plan to fight crime and make the province safer as part of the NDP election platform.
“We used to be the place where you left your door unlocked, but under Scott Moe and the Sask Party our province has the worst crime rates in Canada,” said Beck.
“We need to get Saskatchewan out of last place on public safety and make our communities more secure. We need to get tough on crime and tough on the causes of crime. It’s time for a change.”
The plan includes hiring more local police officers and scraping the Marshals Service.
It focuses on helping people with mental health and drug problems.
Beck wants to create a special team to look into “unexplained wealth,” which could be linked to organized crime.
Lastly, she proposed a $2 million program to help families, small businesses, and places of worship improve their security with alarms and security cameras.
Beck pointed out that almost 100 towns and cities in Saskatchewan are asking to stop the Marshals Service. She mentioned that the Sask Party has spent $14 million on the Marshals but has yet to deploy any new officers on the streets.
Former Sask Party MLA and Speaker Randy Weekes told the Regina Leader-Post that the Marshals Service was created because of one politician's dislike of the RCMP, which is Sask Party MLA Jeremy Harrison.
Beck also promised to work with local leaders to improve safety. She wants to fill empty public housing and increase social support.
“This is an all-hands-on-deck approach to giving communities the tools and resources they need to make our streets safer and tackle those root causes of crime — like mental health, addictions, and the lack of housing,” said Beck.

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.

WEF/UN/Globalists have proven they can’t be trusted now given the key to Canada. Are you awake yet Canadians??
REPORT: UN Climate Scientists Flip on the Climate Doomsday Narrative | Stand on Guard CLIP
WATCH Have they been lying about climate change this whole time? Are they cancelling climate change doomsday scenario for the data centers?
The UN climate scientists admit the high emission doomsday scenarios were overblown. UN climate change scientists flip: climate change not too bad anymore according to a new report. No doomsday on the horizon.
On this Stand on Guard clip, we question why the UN might be backtracking on previous dire predictions, suggesting a new agenda at play. We examine how this shift could be tied to the proliferation of data center construction and the increasing demands on our power grid from artificial intelligence. It's crucial to consider the broader implications for our communities and hold big tech accountable.
Thank you to @jimmy_dore for pointing out this...
