The provincial government’s recently-released Saskatchewan Plan for Growth will be the focus of a luncheon on Friday, October 26 at the Days Inn’s Taylorton Room.

The Estevan Chamber of Commerce will host the session, which begins at 11:30 a.m. Minister of the Economy Bill Boyd will be the guest speaker.

The provincial government released the Saskatchewan Plan for Growth on October 16. It sets a goal to have 1.2 million people living in the province by 2020, outlines the government's roadmap for getting there, and emphasizes an improved quality of life in Saskatchewan.

According to the plan, the six core activities the government can undertake to foster continued growth are: investing in infrastructure; developing a skilled workforce; ensuring competitiveness; increasing export trade; advancing the province's natural resource strengths through innovation; and maintaining sound fiscal management.
