After being cast into the political wilderness for three decades, Saskatchewan’s Progressive-Conservative Party is planning a three-stage revival. The provincial Progressive-Conservatives – not to be confused with the federal Conservative party led by Erin O’Toole – have been a spent force in Saskatchewan since 1991 when Grant Devine was turfed from office and 14 of his MLAs and staffers were subsequently charged with expense account fraud. The party ran 31 candidates in the 2020 election. It collected fewer than 10,000 votes, or a little less than two per cent of the popular vote. Its best showing was in the central Saskatchewan constituency of Arm River where it picked up 481 votes. But according to party president Glen Leson, loyalists have reason to be optimistic. “Our membership is growing, we’ve generated a lot of interest. About 46 per cent of the population (or more than 400,000 eligible voters) didn’t vote in the last elec- tion. They have either given up or decided no matter how they vote it doesn’t make a difference. A lot of people are looking for something. We are looking for people who are interested in the province who want to join our party.” Leson is on a tour of the province with the party’s operations manager, Dave Bucsis. When they dropped into Grasslands News for a chat they were asked why voters would want another conservative party when they already have a conservative government, the Saskatche- wan Party. “That’s debatable. There are people looking for a REAL conservative party. Our job is to supply that option,” ex- plained Leson. “It seems the left is controlling the agenda. Premier Scott Moe likes to campaign two bubbles to the right, and then once elected, governs two bubbles to the left.” The Progressive-Conservative Party’s game plan ac- cording to operations manager Bucsis, is to stage a come back through a “dialogue” with constituents over the next few months. The party’s annual general meeting this fall will then establish the preamble for a policy conven- tion in the spring of 2022 before a leadership convention is held in the fall. “This government has a priority problem,” said Buc- sis. “It seems the left is controlling the agenda. The size of government now is larger than it ever was under the NDP. The Saskatchewan Party has created a system where bu- reaucrats deliver policy and have no accountability in the legislature for their programs,” he explained. “Look at the lack of doctors in rural Saskatchewan. We have to establish community based health care. We have to get back to the core curriculum in our schools, then develop extra-curricular programs that are more sensitive to the needs of the community. Local autonomy is gone. One policy does not fit all. We need to get creative.” 4 June 18, 2021 0HOYLOOH$GYDQFH‡:KLWHZRRG*UHQIHOO+HUDOG6XQ‡)RUW4X·$SSHOOH7LPHV Grasslands News Prairie Valley SD forecasts balanced budget for 2021-22 By Elaine Ashfield Janet Kotylak, Board Chairperson. “And many challenges we face as we emerge Grasslands News achieving a balanced budget wasn’t easy from a global pandemic.” with a modest funding increase of under “Thankfully, we can rely on a pro- one percent outlined in this spring’s fessional, nimble and resourceful staff The June 9, 2021 report from Prairie provincial budget”. that has shown its ability to respond to Valley School Division (PVSD) states Operating grants, with the just under student needs.

School bus driver Kenneth Corbin had 18 kindergartners on board heading for school in Columbia, SC, when a man jumped in holding a military rifle, ordering him to drive to the next town. While he might have liked to, Corbin didn’t pull any heroics. Instead, the children did. Basically, it was non-stop questions -- “Are you a soldier?” “Are you going to hurt us?” “Are you going to hurt the bus driver?” Corbin reported that the man only rode about four miles and simply became frustrated with all the questions. The gunman, later identified as Army trainee Jovan Collazo, 23, ordered Corbin to stop the bus. Collazo’s M4 rifle was unloaded, and he was quickly captured. He was charged with “dozens” of felony counts. The RCMP got a taste of Canadian ingenuity at its best — or, perhaps, its worst — when members of the detachment in Thompson discovered drug smugglers had used boxes of the iconic macaroni treat KD to transport weed. Police were tipped off that a large shipment of illegal drugs was due to arrive at Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation via a deliv- ery service. Officers seized the cargo that included a case of Kraft Dinner boxes with marijuana. Baby formula containers were filled with alcohol and the box containing the cans concealed oxyco- done and alprazolam pills. In St. Petersburg, Fla., a man was arrested for armed robbery and carjacking after he left his cellphone in the targeted car. Daemeion Grady, 24, was also charged with resisting arrest and faces multiple drug charges, including possession of controlled substances — with intent to sell. He was caught after a man discovered an early morning burglar in his kitchen. Armed with a fake Samu- rai sword, Grady ordered the homeowner to help carry a hamper full of stolen items from the resi- dence to the homeowner’s truck, which was then stolen. Investigating officers found a cellphone at the scene. Police in Catalonia are investigating the death of a man who was found inside a large papi- er-mache stegosaurus. It is believed the 39-year-old was trying to retrieve his mobile phone, which had somehow dropped down the leg of the dino- saur. It appears he entered head-first in an attempt to reach it. He had probably been in there several days. A woman reported missing was found alive five months later in the Utah wilderness, where she survived the winter by foraging for grass and moss. Search and rescue crews launched an initial search after seeing an abandoned car in a campground parking lot and some camping equip- ment nearby. It was believed she was struggling with mental health challenges so her friends were concerned. While retrieving a crashed drone, the pilot and a sergeant came upon a tent with the woman inside. The sheriff’s office said the woman ‘knowingly chose to remain in the area,’ though RE-OPENED it’s unclear how she might’ve left.
