Description

November 18–19 Regina Delegates at the annual provincial NDP conference debated and for the first time approved (by a counted vote) a resolution to prohibit discrimination on the basis of age, marital status, sexual orientation, or handicap. The SGC had lobbied extensively for this result. In his closing address, however, NDP Premier Allan Blakeney dampened expectations of immediate action by declaring that it would "require a good deal of thought to see what the appropriate role of government is."
