Statement by the Speaker

Ruling on a Point of Order

(Deferral of Ruling)

Before question period, on the point of order from yesterday, March 23rd, 2026. The Opposition House Leader (Nicole Sarauer) rose on a point of order. An important ruling. I had some discussions, but I would appreciate a little bit more time. I know that might curtail our debate today a bit. But if that’s all right with you, I’d ask to rule on that tomorrow at the appropriate time.

Introduction of Bills

The following bills were introduced, read the first time, and ordered to be read a second time at the next sitting:

Bill No. 616 —	The Islamic Heritage Month Act
	(Noor Burki)
Bill No. 52 —	The Heritage Property Amendment Act, 2026
	(Hon. Alana Ross)

That the Assembly approves in general the budgetary policy of the government,

and the proposed amendment thereto moved by Trent Wotherspoon, seconded by Keith Jorgenson:

does not approve the budgetary policy of the government because it fails to invest in cost-of-living relief, health care, and public safety while pushing the provincial debt to unprecedented levels; and further,

That the Assembly has lost confidence in the government.

The debate continuing on the motion and the amendment, the Assembly recessed from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m.
