Saskatchewan officially has a new premier, following the swearing in of Brad Wall on Wednesday.

The 41-year-old Swift Current native became the province's 14th premier in a ceremony at Government House in Regina.

The other 17 members of Wall's Saskatchewan Party cabinet were also sworn in, with Ken Krawetz becoming the new deputy premier and Education minister.

In a news release, Wall said the new government would work hard to reflect to values of the people it serves.

"To be self-assured, but ever humble and mindful of the great honour we have been given to be stewards of the public service, of the public purse, and of Saskatchewan's dreams," Wall said.

"To admit easily of mistakes, to fix them and resolve that they not be repeated. To be respectful. To be innovative and resourceful. To seek good counsel. To be honest. To be transparent."

The other 16 members of the new cabinet are:

  • Bill Boyd - minister of Energy and Resources and minister responsible for Intergovernmental Affairs.
