"Saskatchewan's manufacturing sector is crucial to driving our economy, today's numbers show our manufacturers are continuing to grow and create new opportunities for our province," Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. "Our government is actively working to create a competitive business environment that fosters growth and helps us to build strong and vibrant communities. The increase we are seeing in manufacturing sales is leading to more jobs and a better quality of life for the people of our province, showing that our efforts to grow our economy and create opportunities for Saskatchewan people are working."
