As unemployment continues to roll through Saskatchewan and the value of Canadian oil continues to slump on the global market, households across the province are finding themselves on the bring of financial ruin. With severance cheques and Employment Insurance running their final course, thousands have found themselves relying on credit to help them pull through the daily costs of living, sending them deep into debt and in search of viable insolvency solutions and debt advisors.

MNP’s Pamela Meger recently spoke with CBC about the direct link between the Oil & Gas industry and Saskatchewan insolvencies in an original article published online on February 3, 2017.
