Dear Minister Gantefoer

As you might expect, Retirees are disappointed that you and your Government appear to have sided with Justice staff andforcing

the continuation of our lawsuit through the courts. This isparticularly confusing for Retirees when your Party, as the official opposition,

criticized the former NDP Government for notmeeting with Retirees and negotiating a reasonable resolution to this dispute.

It is even more disappointing in that the Saskatchewan Party is on publicrecord documenting its support for the Retiree

request for improved pensions andbenefits. You are aware of the Retiree requests and have before you our offerto withdraw

the lawsuit with a reasonable resolution to only five of theconcerns facing Retirees.

Further to my recent letter, I have now been advised that Finance staff have finished a costing of certain Retiree pension improvement requests.

In consideration that this costing has now been completed, it wouldseem appropriate to now meet

and discuss these findings with SRA officials. Inlight of this recent development, we again request a meeting

with you, “withoutprejudice”, to discuss our issues and concerns.

On behalf of many of your constituents, and the entire SaskatchewanRetiree Association membership,

I look forward to your favorable considerationof this request.

Yours sincerely,

Alf Zimmerman

President
