Our Vision

Elections Saskatchewan's vision is:

A made-in-Saskatchewan electoral process that responds to the needs of all of our stakeholders

There are eight aspects to our vision:

  • Broadly-based communications initiatives, publications and advertising, combined with focused outreach programs will ensure that all stakeholders are fully aware of their opportunities to be involved in the electoral process.
  • Administrative and physical barriers that challenge or deter electors will be identified, removed and replaced by inclusive and accessible processes and procedures that will encourage the highest level of participation in Saskatchewan electoral events.
  • Electors will have the opportunity to use proven and leading-edge technologies to obtain electoral information and participate in all aspects of the electoral process, including voter registration and casting their ballot.
  • Cost effective electoral processes will take advantage of state-of-the-art information and technical systems that capitalize on public investment in government databases and related activities and also benefit from public and private sector partnerships within Saskatchewan and across Canada.
  • Increased compliance with the election finances provisions of the legislation will be achieved through the direct involvement of political parties, candidates, official agents and business managers in the development of a full range of simplified assistance tools to be provided by Elections Saskatchewan, resulting in reduced investigation and enforcement activity.
  • The wishes and needs of all stakeholders in the electoral process will be canvassed and considered through formalized and timely outreach and consultative processes with provisions for meaningful review and feedback.
  • Through timely reviews of electoral processes and legislation by Saskatchewan's legislators and the Chief Electoral Officer, necessary innovation and flexibility in the statutory and operational framework will be achieved while preserving the integrity of the system.
  • A pool of well-trained election officers will be available to ensure that Elections Saskatchewan can meet its event-readiness mandate.
