| | Lorne Calvert celebrates his hard-won victory in the race this winter to become the new leader of the Saskatchewan New Democratic Party, and the province's next premier. | | | Calvert had been taking a breather from 13 years in politics as an MLA and senior Saskatchewan cabinet minister when Roy Romanow announced last September he was stepping down. | | | In this province that helped nurture the Social Gospel and cherishes the memory of Tommy Douglas, the Baptist minister who was its greatest champion, the fact that a United Church minister seeks to lead the governing NDP seems as natural as snow on the wheatfields. |
