The Saskatchewan Centennial Summit of January 2005 provided a major forum for business, labour, community, First Nations and Métis, and youth leaders to celebrate Saskatchewan's economic successes and explore our future challenges and opportunities.

The Summit revealed a heartfelt pride in Saskatchewan's past and a genuine optimism for its future. At the same time, there was a clear message that now is the time for decisive action and clear direction to meet the challenges and seize the opportunities before us.

The Saskatchewan Action Plan for the Economy presents a broad vision that builds on our strengths and economic momentum to launch the province into a second century of opportunity and prosperity.

The plan sets out actions for sustained growth on four strategic fronts:

1. Expand and Build on our Natural Strengths
2. Extend our Success in Research and Innovation
3. Enhance and Promote our Competitive Advantages
4. Broaden our Economy, Workforce and Jobs

The action plan is an integrated, long-term approach that builds on a decade of economic strategies and partnerships to strengthen and stimulate the provincial economy.
