The party took just 10 seats in April’s election, while the Saskatchewan party took 51.

Interim leader Trent Wotherspoon told delegates that provincial funding cuts are hurting the most vulnerable, and he wants cuts to education, hospitals and mental health services reversed.

Resolutions focused on cracking down on impaired driving, not selling SaskTel and putting stronger regulations on oil pipelines.
