The NDP is slamming the SaskParty government over job loss and the handling of COVID-19.

Opposition leader Ryan Meili says inaction on the pandemic has led to the worst jobs record in Canada.

He says no jobs have been created since February and 23 thousand lost jobs since the pandemic began.

Premier Scott Moe says the province has balanced safety and work, with the result that 50 thousand people are back to work since the start of the pandemic.

He adds the province has several programs in place to support struggling businesses and help restore the remaining 20 thousand lost jobs from the Coronavirus.

But he encourages everyone to get a vaccination to return the economy to normal.
