Sask Premier Needs To Tone Down His 'Country Bumpkin' Schtick - UPDATED
"The NDP thinks Saskatchewan's resource economy is a disease."
Brad Wall
Premier of Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall is scheduled to meet with Federal New Democratic Party Leader, Tom Mulcair while the Federal NDP Caucus meets in Saskatchewan.
For starters, Tom Mulcair never called Saskatchewan's resource industry a 'disease' despite the paid political TV ads that Premier Wall's right wing Saskatchewan Party ran.
It's time to stop playing to the lowest common denominator in the Sask Party and act like a true national statesman.
Hopefully Premier Wall will tone down his 'bumpkin' schtick and have realistic, intelligent, meaningful discussions with Mulcair.
-Really Brad! .. Really?
UPDATE:
Looks like the Premier took my advice to some degree

schtick definition [ʃtɪk]
- n.
a routine or act that is the trademark of an entertainer, especially in vaudeville. (Yiddish.) : His schtick was a trained dog and cat act.
But the country bumpkin, put on the Rider jersey and grin at the camera is working so well...lousy premier, great politician.

Brad must be seething over the Roughriders' failure to follow his orders and win the Banjo Bowl like they were supposed to. That the Green and White somehow managed to lose to basement dwelling Winnipeg made that whole banjo number of Wall's seem hilariously appropriate.
Too bad Corner Gas isn't still in production. They could have easily made an entire show around the premier's embarrassing Saskabilly routine.
