PREMIER JOINS SASKATCHEWAN DELEGATION TO PROMOTE OPPORTUNITIES

Released on March 24, 2009

Premier Brad Wall will join Saskatoon Mayor Donald Atchison, Regina Mayor Pat Fiacco and 25 employers and industry associations in Toronto to spread the word about business and career opportunities in Saskatchewan.

"We are pleased to join our partners to promote the opportunities Saskatchewan has to offer," Wall said. "This mission is a great chance to help ensure Saskatchewan has the people and investment we need to remain strong and steady for years to come."

The centrepiece of the mission will once again be the National Job Fair and the estimated 10,000 job seekers expected to attend. In addition, the Province will have a presence at the Grab-a-Grad Job Fair at Toronto's Ryerson University on April 1. Provincial officials will also join Mayors Atchison and Fiacco at a luncheon with key Toronto business leaders, designed to attract additional investment. The Province's total investment for the mission is less than $100,000.

The mission, which takes place from March 31 to April 1, will also serve as an opportunity to promote Saskatchewan's recently-expanded Graduate Retention Program, which provides qualified post-secondary graduates who choose Saskatchewan with up to $20,000 in refundable tax credits. Information is also available at the program website at www.aeel.gov.sk.ca/grp.

"Today, there are more than 6,200 job openings posted on www.saskjobs.ca," Wall said. "We will be talking to Ontario students and job-seekers about the tremendous opportunities and quality of life available in our great province."

While in Toronto, Premier Wall will also co-chair and address the Public Policy Forum's Annual Testimonial Dinner and Awards.
