It was yet another record-setting year for Saskatchewan.
This time, the province has set the record for total international exports. Through the first 10 months of 2008, our exports totalled $27 billion. That's $7 billion more than the total for all of 2007.
Enterprise and Innovation Minister Lyle Stewart says it has been a phenomenal year for the province. For October alone, exports are up $3.3 billion or 91% over the same month last year.
Stewart adds that the exceptional numbers are based on strong export figures in agriculture, oil and gas, mining, and manufacturing.
