Saskatchewan - Economic Powerhouse?

January 26, 2007 · By Greg Farries

Following up on yesterday’s post about the Fraser Institutes investment climate report, I stumbled upon some scary statistics on Saskatchewan’s at the Prairie Centre Policy Institute,

Saskatchewan has 48% of farmland in Canada, but only 17% of farm income, and only 2% of the food processing. Every Saskatchewan taxpayer has 7 dependents. By 2026, every Saskatchewan taxpayer will have 17 dependents.
