The Board of Police Commissioners Saskatoon, Saskatchewan THE BOARD OF POLICE COMMISSIONERS SASKATOON, SASKATCHEWAN January 7, 2019 The Honourable Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan Room 226, Legislative Building 2405 Legislative Drive Regina, SK S4S OB3 Dear Premier Moe: Re: 2018 Saskatoon Traffic Safety Initiative Project The Saskatoon Board of Police Commissioners recently received the attached report from the Saskatoon Police Service regarding the 2018 Traffic Safety Initiative. As always, the Commission evaluates information through the lens of "community safety". The Traffic Safety Initiative is an important component of community safety, and for that reason, the news that the Province of Saskatchewan plans to eliminate the funding for this program is of great concern to the Saskatoon Board of Police Commissioners. The program, originally funded through Saskatchewan Government Insurance has worked, and in fact, worked very well. In 2018, the funding enabled the Saskatoon Police Service to conduct 17 Traffic Safety Initiatives, typically involving 5 to 9 Police Service members, for about 5 hours for each initiative. The locations included high-volume traffic areas as well as additional school zones, over and above what could have taken place without the program. Additionally, some very important time frames were included in the program, such as early September for additional "back to school" enforcement and at Halloween when 30 neighbourhoods received additional traffic safety coverage. Statistically speaking, the results are compelling. From 2017 to 2018, when the program's financial allocation was increased by 14%, the activity and traffic enforcement interaction level increased by 24%. A leveraged outcome such as this is important to retain. Members of the Saskatoon Board of Police Commissioners are unanimous in their view that this type of additional enforcement makes our community a safer place —for everyone. The loss of this program, on the other hand, is highly problematic. Because the Traffic Safety Initiative impacts the full cross-section of our community, we have included Saskatoon City Council in the distribution of this communication. The Saskatoon Board of Police Commissioners feels the cut in funding will negatively impact community safety. 222 - 3RD AVE. NORTH •CITY HALL • SASKATOON, SASKATCHEWAN S7K OJ5 January 7, 2019 Page 2 We would like to know if there will be alternative sources of funding for this initiative, when will those plans be communicated? And if such plans are in the works, through which provincial government agency will the program funding be provided? We look forward to your response and thank you for your consideration, Mr. Premier, of the implications and importance of this program on community safety for all of the residents of Saskatoon.

    Tuesday, March 24, 2020 Hon. Scott Moe Premier of Saskatchewan Government of Saskatchewan 2405 Legislative Dr., Room 226 Regina SK S4S 0B3 Re: COVID-19 & The Essential Role of the Insurance Supply Chain Mr. Premier: On behalf of Saskatchewan’s property and casualty (P&C) insurance sector, thank you for the Province’s swift action in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We strongly support — and will continue to support — measures to protect the safety and wellbeing of Saskatchewanians. In that spirit, the Insurance Brokers Association of Saskatchewan (IBAS) and the Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC) are jointly writing today to underscore the vital role that our industry plays in protecting consumers, enabling the flow of commerce, and reinforcing the resiliency of communities, large and small. Without proper insurance coverage, families are at risk and businesses simply cannot operate. This protection is only made possible by a robust and highly collaborative supply chain, which includes insurance brokerages, private insurance companies, SGI, and various other vendors, from third-party adjusters to remediation and construction professionals. Brokerages, of course, also serve as the primary distribution channel for public services offered through the SGI Auto Fund, such as the issuance of driver’s licences, licence plates, and basic auto insurance coverage. The majority of the P&C insurance workforce has already migrated to remote work environments. Additional voluntary safeguards have also been put in place to limit potential exposure to appointment-based, in-person interactions only — in compliance with newly mandated provincial health protocols — that are deemed absolutely essential and without timely alternatives.

  • The Honourable Scott
    President’s Address SARM’s 2020 Annual Convention began with opening ceremonies and an address from SARM President Ray Orb. His address touched on several issues important to rural Saskatchewan. President Orb welcomed delegates to the 2020 Annual Convention with special recognition to Senator Roland Crowe, former Chief of the FSIN, former Chief of Piapot First Nations, as well as President Orb’s neighbor. Mr. Crowe was recognized for his commitment to the betterment of the First Nations people and to the province of Saskatchewan receiving the Saskatchewan Order of Merit in 1985. Roland initiated meetings with SARM, and business leaders in this province, to discuss common interests with the idea of creating a path forward for all of us. President Orb expressed the importance of municipal cooperation and collaboration, promoting the power of working with our rural, urban, and First Nations neighbors. He also shared SARM’s disappointment with SUMA’s proposed name change indicating SARM will not stand in the way of RMs working together to form municipal districts, but SARM will still stand up for rural municipalities when we believe their best interests aren’t being served. The name Municipalities of Saskatchewan implies that there is only one municipal association in this province representing all municipalities, which simply is not true. Saskatchewan is diverse. We have urban municipalities. And we have rural municipalities. We have SARM and SUMA and we believe that’s the way it should be. We champion the value of rural Saskatchewan and understand the unique challenges and opportunities that exist in our RMs.

  • Briefing Note
    Briefing Note Canada – Saudi Arabia Diplomatic Rift: How does it Impact Saskatchewan? August 28, 2018 Core Issue The ongoing diplomatic rift between Canada and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has many concerned about the impacts it will have on the Saskatchewan economy, in light of existing trade-related challenges with India, China, and the US. When asked by the media how a freeze in trade between the two countries would affect the province, Premier Scott Moe expressed concern about the loss of access to Saudi Arabian markets by Saskatchewan exporters and stated the dispute was unnecessary. Outgoing Minister of Agriculture Lyle Stewart expressed concern over potential grain handling-related disruptions experienced by Saskatchewan producers. This Briefing Note will offer a high-level overview on the dispute and its impacts on Saskatchewan – namely in the areas of international trade, agriculture, oil and gas, as well as health and education. Background In August 2018 the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia suspended diplomatic ties with Canada and expelled the Canadian ambassador after Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland issued a statement via Twitter criticizing the arrest of human rights activist Raif Badawi and his sister, Samar Badawi. Minister Freeland’s comments were denounced by the Kingdom as blatant interference in Saudi Arabia’s domestic affairs. Raif Badawi’s wife and children were granted asylum by the Government of Canada in 2013. As a part of its retaliatory actions, Saudi Arabia has frozen trade with Canada and has instructed its officials to sell off all Canadian holdings, including equities, stocks, bonds, and cash, even at a loss.

  • NEWS RELEASE Saskatchewan Party Leadership Race Poll January 22, 2018
    NEWS RELEASE Saskatchewan Party Leadership Race Poll January 22, 2018 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: A new independent poll conducted by Insightrix Research in partnership with CJME and CKOM highlights a tight race for the top chair in the Saskatchewan Party, and the new premier of Saskatchewan. Between January 9 and 17, 2018, we conducted an online poll with 1,004 randomly selected Saskatchewan residents from our SaskWatch Research® online panel. Out of these 1,004 respondents, 72 report being a Saskatchewan Party member. To increase the accuracy of our results among Sask. Party members, we conducted additional surveys, targeting only Sask. Party members. This resulted in a total of 104 Sask. Party members in our study. Note that in select cases, numbers do not add precisely to 100% due to rounding. 1 Who Would Make the Best Premier? When asked which of the five leadership candidates would make the best premier, a large portion of Saskatchewan residents are unsure (48%). Ken Cheveldayoff emerges in the lead, but only 16% of Saskatchewan residents name him as the best choice. Alanna Koch follows at 9%, with Gord Wyant and Scott Moe each garnering 5% of Saskatchewan resident responses and Tina Beaudry-Mellor just behind at 4%. One in ten (12%) believe none of the candidates would make the best premier of Saskatchewan. Of note, among the 104 Sask. Party members polled within our general public survey, the findings differ somewhat. Specifically, equal proportions believe Ms. Koch (22%) and Mr. Cheveldayoff (21%) would make the best premier. Mr. Moe (13%) and Mr. Wyant (12%) earn roughly equal support and Ms.

  • May 13Th, 2020 the Honourable Scott Moe Premier of Saskatchewan
    Canadian Public Affairs 222 Queen Street, Suite 1404 Ottawa, Ontario K1P 5V9 May 13th, 2020 The Honourable Scott Moe Premier of Saskatchewan Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan Regina, Saskatchewan S4S 0B3 Dear Premier Moe, I’m writing on behalf of Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) to ask you to continue investing in public infrastructure, such as roads and bridges, now and after the COVID-19 pandemic to support the province’s economic recovery. AED is the international trade association companies that sell, rent, service and manufacture construction, mining, farm, energy, forestry and industrial equipment and related supplies. The Canadian equipment distribution industry, which is dominated by small-medium-sized, family- owned businesses, has more than 420 locations across the country that employ over 27,000 workers and account for at least $8 billion in annual economic activity. Research shows that the return of investment on every dollar spent on infrastructure is between $2.46 and $3.83. Research also shows that infrastructure investments are one of the best ways to rebuild an economy and quickly generate thousands of jobs. It also goes further than just supporting construction. Investments support the multiple suppliers of the industry, such as heavy equipment, and supports a variety of other industries indirectly. For example, expanding highways or public transit makes getting to work for millions of people more efficient. AED members supported infrastructure investments prior to the pandemic and stand ready to support construction after. Our members are essential to ensuring that infrastructure is built efficiently and well to serve generations of Canadians. From pavers, to excavators, to bulldozers, the equipment which our members provide to the construction sector in the province allows them to make public infrastructure investments go the distance.
