This year is closing on a very positive note; Saskatchewan's population recently surpassed 1.2 million for the first time in history. When the Saskatchewan Party government was elected in 2007, the Offical Opposition said our population would never grow beyond one million. We believed Saskatchewan had the potential to grow with the support of a strong economy. This achievement puts us closer than ever to our Growth Plan goal of 1.4 million people by 2030. We are a province full of new jobs, opportunities, vibrant communities and a great quality of life.

04 Aug

Report from the Legislature  - August 4, 2022 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Just when Canadians should be coming together after two difficult years, the federal government is driving a wedge between east and west.

Report from the Legislature - February 3, 2022 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

There have been many discussions lately on how we, as a community and as a province, learn to live with COVID-19. While this view might seem radical to some, it is important to remember that the Public Health Measures the government put in place two years ago to slow the spread of COVID-19 were never meant to be permanent restrictions.

20 Jan

Report from the Legislature -  January 20, 2022 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

A solemn ceremony was held in Regina as Members of the Legislative Assembly and the Saskatchewan Ukrainian community paid tribute to lives lost during Holodomor from 1932 through 1933. This genocide was the Soviet Union imposed famine that led to the deaths of up to 10 million people. Despite a record harvest, the Soviet government confiscated crops and imposed regulations preventing people from finding or receiving food. Holodomor means "extermination by hunger" in Ukrainian. Canada has the third-highest population of Ukrainians globally, and the local community will honour Holodomor Saturday, November 27th.

Saskatchewan has seen its share of challenges, and the extreme drought conditions we are currently experiencing have been no exception.

The spring sitting of the legislature was highlighted by two things: a budget that protects, builds, and grows Saskatchewan, and a roadmap that charts a course through the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. Budget 2021-22 is designed to protect the health and safety of our people and our economy.

15 Apr

Report from the Legislature  April 15, 2021 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Report from the Legislature  April 8, 2021 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

The COVID-19 pandemic is not just a global health crisis, it is the biggest shock to the Saskatchewan, Canadian and world economies since the Second World War. This is a significant challenge that requires a significant response. Saskatchewan’s response can best be summarized in three words: Protect. Build. Grow.

01 Apr

Report from the Legislature  April 1, 2021 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

The Supreme Court of Canada recently determined that Prime Minister Trudeau has the legal right to impose a carbon tax – but that doesn’t mean that he should, and it doesn’t make his carbon tax any less punitive for Saskatchewan people.

18 Mar

Report from the Legislature  March 18, 2021 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Protecting public health and providing supports in response to COVID-19 remains the focus of the Government of Saskatchewan. Today, we have reason for optimism. Over 80,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been administered in Saskatchewan and our province is set to receive approximately 112,000 doses this month.

04 Feb

Report from the Legislature February 4, 2021 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

The COVID-19 pandemic has presented unique challenges in all areas of our lives; just consider the new ways we are doing business, educating our children, socializing, and staying active. There is no question that the pandemic has taken a significant toll on all of us in terms of both our physical and mental health and wellbeing.

10 Dec

Report from the Legislature December 10, 2020 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

In a tough year, there is the good news Saskatchewan people can look forward to – a vaccine for the COVID-19 pandemic will be available in the coming weeks. This does not, however, suggest that it is time to ease up and become less disciplined in our approach to preventing its spread. We all have a role to play in slowing the transmission of this virus and our government continues its work to ensure that resources are available to our health care providers. We continue to ask that you to follow public health orders and frequently wash your hands, practice physical distancing, wear a mask and stay home if you have symptoms.

Report from the Legislature February 27, 2020 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

The Trudeau Carbon Tax – imposed on a number of provinces including Saskatchewan – is unconstitutional. In a four to one decision, the Alberta Court of Appeal has ruled that the imposition represents a wholesale takeover of a collection of clear provincial jurisdictions and rights, calling it a “constitutional trojan horse” that ultimately could allow the federal government to exert authority over other areas of provincial jurisdiction.

Saskatchewan is pleased to have another ally at the table fighting for pipelines and standing against the Trudeau carbon tax.

28 Mar

Report from the Legislature March 28, 2019 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Members of the Legislative Assembly have been debating the 2019-20 Provincial Budget – a responsible and sustainable plan to balance the budget this year, and in the years to come. The debate, however, brought forward some questionable remarks from the NDP’s newest MLA who defended the former government’s closure of 176 schools and 52 hospitals by saying “maybe those places should have been closed”. He even suggested that our protective services “don’t prevent crime”, they only respond to it.

21 Mar

Report from the Legislature March 21, 2019 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

The 2019 Provincial Budget is a balanced budget – and it's the right balance for Saskatchewan. It's the right balance between keeping your taxes low and providing quality services for our children, families, and seniors.

13 Dec

Report from the Legislature December 13, 2018 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Saskatchewan people are proud of our contributions to Canada. It is frustrating, however, when provinces like Quebec say there is “no social acceptability” for oil from western Canada when, at the same time, there seems to be a lot of social acceptability for Equalization payments from western Canada.

06 Dec

Report from the Legislature December 6, 2018 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

I want to thank the thousands of SaskPower, SaskEnergy, SaskTel, emergency service workers, and many working across government Ministries for their tremendous response and their work through a major power outage affecting nearly one-third of SaskPower customers.

22 Nov

Report from the Legislature November 22, 2018 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Pipelines are the safest, most efficient, and most sustainable way to get our oil to world markets. The problem for Saskatchewan and for all of Canada right now is that pipelines are being blocked, not built. The federal government has killed two projects, stalled a third, and we can’t get our oil to tidewater as a result. Inaction is costing Canadians every day.

15 Nov

With the legalization of cannabis occurring across Canada, I want to ensure everyone is clear on what the new rules are when it comes to the legal purchase and possession of cannabis in Saskatchewan.

Summer is always a great time to get back to our communities, reach out to constituents and gather feedback on how we can work together to build a better province. Whether it is fighting the carbon tax or fixing Canada’s flawed equalization program, your Saskatchewan Party government will always stand with the people of this great province.

15 Aug

Warren Kaeding MLA Report from the Legislature August 2018 Melville-Saltcoats

After two years of telling us that a carbon tax would not affect Canada’s competitiveness and hurt our economy, the federal government has finally admitted that it will. The Trudeau government recently announced that they will now reduce the amount of tax companies are required to pay on their greenhouse gas emissions. This new, watered-down carbon tax scheme is still a carbon tax that does nothing for the environment, reduces jobs, and takes money from families.

Summer in Saskatchewan is a great time to enjoy recreation and relaxation. When travelling throughout our province, our government understands the importance of high-speed internet and cellular connections both in business and in our personal lives.

12 Jul

Report from the Legislature July 12, 2018 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

28 Jun

Report from the Legislature June 28, 2018 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

Each year at this time we come together to celebrate our country, its identity, our shared values, and our collective good fortune to live here. Canada is a country that works, but like all countries, Canada is imperfect and one of its enduring imperfections is the federal equalization program. The objective to ensure all Canadians have access to a comparable level of service is commendable, but the program designed to do that is flawed.

Report from the Legislature April 5, 2018 Saskatchewan Party Caucus

From gas and groceries to clothing and other necessities, provinces across Canada are finding out how carbon taxes drive up costs and make it harder for families to make ends meet. Not only do carbon taxes hurt families by making their day-to-day lives more expensive, they threaten their jobs by making our export-based economies less competitive in a global market.

About Warren

Community Links

I am a lifelong resident of Churchbridge.

Warren has a Degree in Agriculture from the U of S and has maintained a Professional Agrologist designation since graduating. He was a 30 year past owner of Wagon Wheel Seed Corp along with his wife and parents. They produced and processed pedigreed seed grain for customers throughout the area and exported into Eastern Canada and the United States until selling the farm to a young couple from Alberta in 2012. Carla, Warren’s wife, worked for many years as an educator with Parkland College and was also the Administrator for the Town of Churchbridge. They have two adult sons, Michael a Design Engineer with Rockford Engineering Works Ltd. in Regina. His wife, Laine works for the provincial government. Matthew, is an aerospace engineer in Ontario, receiving his education at Carlton University in Ottawa.

Warren has been active as Chairperson for the Churchbridge Economic Development Committee. Highlighted by the building of an 18-suite adult living apartment and the development of the first of its kind in Saskatchewan - High School Mechanical Millwright lab. He has held numerous positions on various community, provincial and national boards involving Church, professional Agrologist, pedigreed seed production, sports, regional economic development, the Sask Party and the federal Conservative party. He has also been an advisor to the Agriculture Development Fund and was employed as the Executive Director of Sask Farm Stewardship Assoc.

His involvement with youth included coaching minor baseball, hockey and officiating hockey. He served on the local School Community Council for numerous years. While operating their seed business they provided a science-based scholarship to the graduating class of Churchbridge High School. Each year the farm would employ numerous summer students on a casual and part-time basis.

Warren and Carla were presented the National Outstanding Young Farmers Award in 1999 and are still active alumni members holding executive positions in the provincial OYF group mentoring many of the new provincial nominees.

Warren inherited his fiscal conservative values from his father who was a lifelong member of the conservative movement. He began his political career by putting up posters and signs with his dad for their provincial constituency association with elected MLA’s Walter Johnson and Bob Bjornerud. His father instilled the value of an educated opinion repeating only the facts that you know. If you are going to complain about something you better have a solution you can put forward. Admit you don’t know everything but find good people who do and value their opinion. Warren truly believes he can and will make a difference in the lives of people that come looking for solutions. He is a consensus builder and always believes that there is middle ground to be found in solving any problem.
