Enterprise Saskatchewan

Saskatchewan’s economy continues to show unprecedented strength. Enterprise Saskatchewan and its board of directors are working diligently with our province’s economic sectors to continue to move Saskatchewan forward.

Saskatchewan’s economy led the way in 2010-11 in a variety of key indicators. The province’s population is the highest it has been in our history. Our 2010 GDP growth was the second highest in the country, and the outlook moving forward is equally positive. Six private sector forecasters are predicting our province will lead the nation in economic growth in both 2011 and 2012. Business optimism is at an unprecedented high, with public and private sector investment reaching over $15 billion in 2010 and forecasted to reach a record of $17 billion in 2011.

Enterprise Saskatchewan is committed to pressing the Saskatchewan Advantage of low taxes, strong quality of life, reduced government debt and less red tape for businesses. Our board continues to make recommendations to government that support the development of our province’s economy. These recommendations and achievements are detailed in the pages that follow.

Looking forward, we will continue to focus our energy on creating real growth and real opportunities for the people of Saskatchewan.

On behalf of Enterprise Saskatchewan, I am pleased to provide the 2010-11 Annual Report to the legislature and to the people of Saskatchewan.

The Honourable Jeremy Harrison
Minister of Enterprise
