  Saskatchewan's two main political leaders had agreed before October's provincial election not to target the families of candidates during the campaign, says Opposition NDP Leader Carla Beck.

The article discusses a situation in Saskatchewan where the family of NDP candidate Jared Clarke was targeted with offensive and threatening messages. This incident came to light after Clarke's campaign signs were vandalized. The messages, which included threats and slurs, were sent to Clarke's wife, leading to significant distress. Clarke, who is running in the Regina Walsh Acres riding, expressed disappointment over the breach of political civility, especially since Premier Scott Moe had previously committed to fostering a respectful political environment. The article highlights the contrast between this commitment and the actual behavior experienced by Clarke's family, pointing out the increasing polarization and hostility in political discourse. Clarke's wife, who is not involved in politics, was particularly affected, prompting Clarke to speak out against the harassment and call for a return to respectful political engagement.
