A provincial NDP member wants to bring forth a bill that will make Alberta pay for oil sands pollution in Saskatchewan.

Environment Critic Sandra Morin says the Wall government has not done enough to measure or protect Saskatchewan residents from the toxins coming from the Alberta Oilsands project.

Morin says the Alberta government needs to compensate the province for the health of residents and resources such as farmland and water.

Morin says there also needs to be a plan to measure and monitor pollution coming into the province.
