It’s Healthcare Provider Week! Text a message of thanks to our awesome healthcare workers. 🙏

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

Hello everyone! 👋👋 CUPE’s national convention brings together thousands of members from across the country. We set the direction of our union; a union that is strong and growing and fighting back — and winning.

We popped in to see Sask. Party MLA Travis Keisig in Balcarres to drop off letters written to him by healthcare workers from his own community about the sorry state of rural healthcare, and the lack of a fair deal for workers. Wouldn’t you know it… he wasn’t at work!

The countdown has begun. If Scott Moe does not sign a deal with the federal government within six months, $10-a-day childcare is dead in Saskatchewan.

Our sister union in the Philippines is called COURAGE, and CUPE Sask has been a partner for many years. We were honoured to host their president, Santiago. We visited members in Regina, Weyburn, and Saskatoon from healthcare, universities, libraries, education, & municipalities.

High-flying Healthcare Hypocrites. Scott Moe pays the health authority CEO nearly half a million dollars a year, and has given him another double digit pay hike. And the workers? Nothing. Absolutely nothing — for 3.5 years. Time for a fair deal.

As students head back to school, so too do our tireless education workers — in fact many have been there all year! Here’s a few photos of CUPE education workers from this summer’s outreach events. We will continue to fight for better pay, more resources, and safer workplaces.

Last official CUPE Saskatchewan BBQ of the year! Ended the summer circuit with CUPE Local 4748, workers at the Cosmopolitian Learning Centre in Regina. 🍔 🌭

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 27/08/2025

2nd annual Dog Day BBQ was a smashing success! Each year we have a free BBQ at the dog park to recognize the work CUPE members do at the Saskatoon SPCA, and as an excuse to collect photos of cute dogs.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

Enough dithering. Time for Scott Moe to grab a pen and get this deal inked — today.

Emergency rooms are closing and wait times are growing, but have you ever wondered why? #saskatchewan #cupe #scottmoe #healthcare

CUPE Saskatchewan and Local 3370 — the care workers of Nipawin Handiworks — put on another successful community BBQ in Nipawin today. Thanks to all the volunteers and people who came by!

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 21/07/2025

CUPE Saskatchewan proudly participates in Back to Batoche, and has for many years. This year we sponsored the movie night, made hundreds of bags of popcorn, gave away lots of resources, and handed out swag.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 16/07/2025

Nice day for a BBQ, co-hosted with CUPE Local 1975 at the University of Saskatchewan. Thank-you to all the volunteers, and it was the CUPE SaskatcheVAN’s first official BBQ. 🚐

010

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 14/07/2025

We joined the parade to celebrate the Town of Nipawin’s 100th birthday on the weekend. CUPE has hundreds of members that live in and around Nipawin — and many came out to volunteer! Our prize wheel raised over $370 for the Nipawin Early Learning Centre.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

There is one person who could decide, today, to give healthcare workers a real raise. That person’s name is Scott Moe.

263

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 09/07/2025

While bargaining was taking place inside, we were outside calling on Scott Moe and his bargaining agent to get a fair deal done now. Healthcare workers have gone over 3 years without a raise during a cost of living crisis. The result has been a staffing and retention emergency.

001

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 03/07/2025

As Saskatchewan’s community union, we dedicate many months of the year to outreach. BBQs, parades, Pride celebrations, pow wows, festivals. We think it’s important to connect with the people who use the services that CUPE members deliver every day. That outreach just got a whole lot more stylish!

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 28/06/2025

CUPE Local 5512 and CUPE Saskatchewan BBQ in Moose Jaw today! Couldn’t ask for better weather.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 23/06/2025

CUPE members showed their Frontline Pride in Saskatoon! Thanks to all the volunteers. 🙏

041

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 22/06/2025

You’re telling me all these little stinkers are just lined up waiting and I get to pet them and give them treats? Sounds like a scam but ok I’m in. Happy Pride Saskatoon!

030

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Our community BBQ at Saskatoon City Hall is about to begin! CUPE’s municipal and library workers in Saskatoon are co-hosting. They even splurged and got cheese for the burgers. With close to 2,000 people expected — that’s a lot of cheese!

010

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Pride is political, and may it always be. Scott Moe is banned from Pride, and may he always be.

061

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 13/06/2025

Big thank you to all the members of CUPE Local 4195 — Saskatchewan Rivers Public School Division — who volunteered at our joint community BBQ this evening in Prince Albert. And I have to give a shout out to Matt and JR who are doing their best impressions of a supervisor!

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

Prince Albert Pride was another success, a little rain but no complaints about that! Thanks to the organizers, volunteers, and many CUPE members for all the hard work.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

Happy Pride Moose Jaw! 👏 Protect Trans Rights 👏 Repeal Bill 137 👏 Moe’s Gotta Go

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

Unfortunately, I have many examples to share about what CUPE members living under regressive, anti-worker govts fight against every day — suppressed wages, privatization, cuts, trampled workers rights, and more. But we’re fighting back, together. Thanks @cupebc.bsky.social for having me. ✊

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 25/04/2025

Now l've been kicked out of meetings before — but within two minutes of it starting has to be a new record.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 23/04/2025

CUPE Local 5430 healthcare workers have gone over three years without a raise — and that is unacceptable. Hundreds of us showed up at the Legislature today to tell Scott Moe and the Sask. Party to get serious about fixing their retention crisis, and pay workers what they deserve.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

Another day at SUMA in Saskatoon talking with elected officials from across the province about the vital work CUPE members do to keep our communities safe, healthy, and running well.

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 11/04/2025

Thank-you to the CUPE SK Executive Board for a great meeting today. We are a strong team dedicated to building an even better union. We were joined by guests from two other unions (RWDSU and GSU) as well as our friends MLA Nathaniel Teed and MLA Joan Pratchler.

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

Got to spend some time with CUPE Local 882 — City of Prince Albert inside workers. My yapping was kept to a tight timeline though, because people had to get to the Raiders game. And fair enough!

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

We’re in La Ronge this weekend doing political action and organizing training with a focus on Northern and Indigenous communities. CUPE has prioritized this work for decades, led by Indigenous members. Recently we created a pilot project to dedicate even more resources to these vital efforts.

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 01/04/2025

Three years without a raise for Saskatchewan healthcare providers is unacceptable. Today we met with the Minister of Health so he could hear from frontline workers about the impacts of low pay, short-staffing, and burnout. Now it’s time for him to fix this broken system.

030

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 01/04/2025

Today is April Fools’ Day, but this is no joke. Today marks 3 years since CUPE healthcare workers have received a raise – and that is unacceptable. Scott Moe has given up on fixing his healthcare crisis, but we’ll keep fighting until healthcare workers get what they deserve.

031

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 31/03/2025

If you’ve had blood work done, got an X-ray, CT or MRI scan, then you’ve needed a medical technologist/technician. CUPE represents over 900 of them in SK. Today we sounded the alarm about crushing workloads, low pay, and burnout. Time for Scott Moe to fix his broken system.

000

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

CUPE members at the Saskatoon Public Library responded to at least 48 overdoses this year, double the same period in 2024. In response, Saskatoon Public Library has closed two branches. Scott Moe is responsible, and what did he do in his latest budget? More cuts.

031

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 02/03/2025

Over 100 @cupescfp.bsky.social young workers have gathered in Montreal for the Young Workers Conference. Kicked off by CUPE Saskatchewan’s very own Emily Hitchings!

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

The inaugural CUPE Prairie Human Rights Conference is underway in Saskatoon. We don’t ask nicely for worker rights and human rights. We demand them. And mobilize for them. And reach out and take them!

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 11/12/2024

CUPE supporting striking CUPW members! ✊

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 10/12/2024

Thank-you to Dr. Kristopher Wells — “the most dangerous Senator in Canada” — for meeting with me this afternoon. Good discussion about protecting queer and trans rights, and how we can work together in the future.

010

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 10/12/2024

Congratulations to CUPE Local 2669 — workers at the Saskatoon Public Library — for achieving a new collective agreement! Their job action led to better wages, leave improvements, and protections against working alone.

KENT @sameoldkent.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

A little blizzard isn’t going to stop a CUPE strike — but it will stop a good hair day. Solidarity to CUPE Local 2669, workers at the Saskatoon Public Library. Fighting for safe workplaces and fair pay.
