Saskatchewan Premier Adjusts School Policy Priorities

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe has downplayed a previously emphasized pledge to ban biological boys from using girls' change rooms in schools, stating he misspoke during his election campaign. Moe clarified that his initial priorities include meeting with the lieutenant governor, forming a cabinet, and setting a legislative agenda, rather than immediately addressing the change room issue. He acknowledged the need to consult with school boards after upcoming elections before deciding on future policies related to the matter. The Saskatchewan Party, while re-elected, has faced a reduced caucus and significant seat losses in Regina and Saskatoon. The opposition NDP criticized Moe's shifting stance as a sign of untrustworthiness and pandering for votes. Moe emphasized that future discussions would aim to support all children in Saskatchewan.
