Health care has been a major issue in the province since the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hospital wait times, the lack of doctors and specialists, and the call for help from nurses feeling burnt out are just a few of the issues for residents.

Some political parties are leaning into private health-care facilities across the province.

Saskatchewan NDP Leader Carla Beck has promised to hire 800 new front-line health-care workers over four years .

The NDP said it would train, retain and hire more doctors, nurses and specialists by investing $1.1 billion in new health care funding.

The Sask. Party is also promising to increase mental health and addictions funding by $34 million .
