Saskatchewan’s Official Opposition is urging the government to reject SaskPower’s latest rate hike which was recently approved by the provincial Rate Review Panel.

She says, “Only the worst financial managers in Canada could raise rates three times in a year – while sitting on windfall revenues – and still manage to run a $138 million loss. “
