MLA: Dan D'Autremont - Cannington

Thank you, that you have raised up mentors like Dan D’Autremont who choose to stay the course and face the challenges. Fill Dan with a sense of vision for the term ahead and give him opportunities to influence and mentor others in government. Help him to set aside intentional time to enjoy his family, friends and activities in the midst of his obligations. Let peace and contentment be his in abundance. Amen.

One of the "Original Eight" founding members of the Saskatchewan Party, Dan was first elected to the Legislature in 1991. He was re-elected in 1995, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, and 2016.

In opposition, Dan served as critic for Highways, Education, Energy and Mines, Health, SaskTel, ITO, SLGA and SGI. While critic for the SLGA, Dan also worked closely with the Saskatchewan Indian Gaming Authority and First Nations.
