Sask United

Reopen the royalty framework on potash

Read more

"We recognize the rarity and global demand for Saskatchewan’s world class potash reserves. As a result, potash must be priced accordingly and reflecting its true value – ensuring that Saskatchewan people reap the economic benefits of their natural resource wealth. The wealth generated from potash and other re- sources need to benefit the Saskatchewan people first and foremost, rather than being siphoned off to global markets. Corporations profiting from production need to pay their fair share. We will reopen the royalty framework on potash to ensure the province and its people have a fair deal." — The Sask United Blueprint for Change, retrieved 2024-10-20
