Premier Scott Moe and NDP leader Carla Beck sparred over the new pronouns policy for Saskatchewan schools in the Legislature Tuesday..On Tuesday morning, Moe tweeted about the Parental Inclusion and Consent Policy..“Today, an important debate will begin in the Legislature about the Parental Inclusion and Consent policy,” tweeted Moe..“You will hear a lot of commentary about the constitution, the court judgment and the proper use of the notwithstanding clause.”.“But the question really comes down to this,” tweeted Moe. “Should parents be included in important decisions regarding your kids? Who do you trust to raise your kids? Your Saskatchewan Party government trusts parents.”.Beck went after Moe over the notwithstanding clause..“We've been called back to the legislature by this tired and out-of-touch government. But they haven't brought us back to deal with the issues that matter most to Saskatchewan people,” said Beck in the legislature. .“The cost of living, healthcare, the state of our kids classrooms. They're not focused on what matters most to people. Instead, we see them using the notwithstanding clause to knowingly do harm to already vulnerable kids. The question is this, Mr. Speaker: How is that leadership and whose rights are they coming after next?”.Moe responded to Beck that the Saskatchewan government cares about parental involvement in their children’s education. ."This government also supports, most certainly supports, parents having the opportunity to be involved in their child's school, in their child's class, in their child's education,” said Moe..“The question here today, Mr. Speaker, is why do the NDP not believe that parents should be involved in their children's education?”.Beck accused Moe of “spewing nonsense.”.“With respect to the legislation, ultimately, that will be introduced Mr. Speaker,” said Moe. .“That's about preserving the right for parents to be involved in their child's education. Something that the NDP and you (Beck) can now explain to parents as to why they do not support parental inclusion in their children's education.”
