ICYMI: Ryan Meili resigning as Sask. NDP Leader today
Meili announced his resignation at his constituency office in Saskatoon on Friday morning. He will be staying on as leader until then, at his decision.

In a speech before a leadership review vote in October 2021 vote, Meili admitted that the party fell short of expectations in the last election campaign but promised to work with party supporters for change. He survived that vote,It echoed a sentiment he shared in a 2021 year-end interview with Postmedia, where Meiliwhen it came to “the degree to which people are frustrated with this government and are looking for change.
