Walter and Ruth Smishek August 14, 1989 Regina 2/3 AEB

This is a continuation of the Walter Smishek interview, conducted by Dennis Gruending for his book on Allan E. Blakeney called, PROMISES TO KEEP. Walter Smishek gives his analysis of the way circumstances developed regarding potash and potash mines in the 70's. He then discusses the relationship between the Blakeney government and Saskatchewan Federation of Labour. He also explains why he was concerned about uranium development. Walter Smishek breifly discusses the affermative action programmes particularly aimed towards metis and Indian people in 1979. The last thing they talk about is Walter Smishek's opinion of what happened in the 1982 provincial election.
