Beck, surrounded by members of the Saskatchewan Union of Nurses, reiterated the importance of prioritize healthcare and its workers.

“Last year we lost 4,000 health care workers outside the province,” Beck said. “We have committed to not only hiring 800 additional workers in the health system, but also reducing the rate of people leaving the province, effectively cutting the profession in half.

Beck said this would retain more than 2,000 health care workers.

Beck also believes his party can have an immediate impact on the lives of Saskatchewan families.

“We are confident that we can hit the ground running and start turning things around from day one,” Beck said. “It’s (our platform) built with… a plan to be up and running immediately to provide help to the people of Saskatchewan.”

Beck said she is very confident heading into tomorrow’s election.

Meanwhile, Moe surrounded himself with Sask. Party MPs from Saskatoon and surrounding areas also expressed confidence.

“We put the people of Saskatchewan into action, a plan to continue strengthening a dynamic and growing economy” said Moe.

Moe said he wants to make sure children growing up in Saskatchewan don’t leave the province.

“We also want to make sure that … we have the opportunity for your child, your children, our future, to choose to stay in Saskatchewan.

Moe said he feels like his party’s message is being delivered well.

“This has been a very strong campaign,” Moe said.
