Following Regina's byelections last week, Premier Scott Moe says the message from voters has been received loud and clear.
Following Regina’s byelections last week, Premier Scott Moe says the message from voters has been received loud and clear.
Moe is now pledging the government must do more to help Saskatchewan’s most vulnerable.
“How do we more broadly support our communities and those who are the most vulnerable and have some of the most complex – often mental health and sometimes addictions challenges in our communities to ensure that they have a pathway to recovery and a pathway to a better life,” Moe said, while addressing media last week.
“So we’ve heard that message.”
The Premier believes that concerns about housing and the cost of living were two messages delivered to his government with the byelection results.
The Sask. Party held onto the riding of Lumsden-Morse but lost both Regina Walsh Acres and Regina Coronation Park to the Saskatchewan NDP.
“I think you can look for the government to be taking that message very seriously,” Moe added.
