'This is sick': Premier Moe accuses NDP of promoting hate in fundraising email
CBC
Premier Scott Moe called on NDP Leader Carla Beck to fire newly-appointed campaign manager Jeremy Nolais after he sent what Moe called a "dangerous" fundraising email to NDP members over the weekend.
In documents obtained by CBC News, Nolais encouraged members to think of the faces of the premier and ministers who “you hate so much. Scott Moe. Tim McLeod. Jeremy Harrison. Jeremy Cockrill."
Premier Scott Moe addressed the NDP's email at Monday's legislative session, calling it a promotion of hatred.
"This is sick and in today's political climate, promoting this kind of hatred is not only careless," he said. "It is dangerous."
The premier argued that Nolais was only appointed to the position late last week and his first order of business was to elevate hate against fathers, husbands and individuals serving the province.
"The Leader of the Opposition, I would say today, has a choice to make," Moe said.
"She can endorse this hate or she can say that it is wrong, it is sick and it is unacceptable and fire that individual for promoting hate in this province of Saskatchewan."
Beck pushed back at Moe's remarks. She said the premier is desperate, says one thing and does another.
"How very precious of the premier to clutch his pearls and talk about hate when he knows what he did in the last election," she said.
One of the main disputes to come out of the last election was Moe's proposed policy that would restrict students' use of changerooms in the province's schools to their sex assigned at birth — and the singling out of NDP MLA Jared Clarke's trans children.
"If he wants to debate that, I'll be happy to stand beside him and debate it in that rotunda today," Beck said.
