City of Weyburn P.O CITY OF WEYBURN P.O. Box 370 157 – Third St. N.E. Weyburn, Sask. S4H 2K6 Phone: 306.848.3236 | Email: [email protected] PUBLIC RELATIONS COORDINATOR Fri., Sept. 15, 2017 For Immediate Release WEYBURN RESERVOIR CONSTRUCTION TO BEGIN, OTHER WATER WORKS CONTINUE Weyburn: Today, the City of Weyburn is hosting a ceremony to officially kick off the construction stage of its new water reservoir project, and gave an update about its water meter and service line replacement project – two infrastructure initiatives funded in part by the federal and provincial governments. “The Government of Canada is committed to investing in modern water and wastewater infrastructure that meets the needs of our communities while supporting economic growth and middle-class job creation,” said the Honourable Ralph Goodale, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, on behalf of the Honourable Amarjeet Sohi, Minister of Infrastructure and Communities. “These important projects in Weyburn will ensure that thousands of residents have access to safe reliable drinking water, which is crucial to keeping our communities healthy and livable now and into the future.” “Building local infrastructure is essential to the long term growth in communities across the province. The Government of Saskatchewan is proud to be a part of this partnership with both the federal government and the City of Weyburn. When governments can work together for citizens, initiatives like this can become a reality more easily and have significant impacts on everyday life,” the Honourable Dustin Duncan, Minister of Environment and MLA for Weyburn-Big Muddy, said on behalf of the Honourable Larry Doke, Minister of Government Relations. “We are incredibly thankful to have received the funding from the federal and provincial governments. This funding has made it possible to accomplish huge infrastructure improvements to our water works with considerably less effect on City of Weyburn tax payers,” His Worship Marcel Roy, Mayor of Weyburn, said. Construction of the new reservoir will include upgrades to existing water infrastructure, along with improved treatment procedures for Weyburn’s drinking water. The entire reservoir project is targeted to be completed by December 2018. Weyburn also continues moving forward with its water meter and service line replacement infrastructure project. The city-wide water meter replacement portion of the project will involve upgrading about 3,900 water meters to ultrasonic water meters on a fixed network meter reading system. The other portion of the project will involve the replacement of 50 water and sewer service lines at residences and businesses currently made of lead. Work on both portions of this project is expected to begin in September 2017 and to be completed by March 2018. Through the Provincial-Territorial Infrastructure Component – National and Regional Projects program, the governments of Canada and Saskatchewan are each contributing up to $5.3 million for the water reservoir project, while the City is responsible for all remaining costs, which has a total eligible cost of up to $15.9 million. Through the Clean Water and Wastewater Fund, the federal government will contribute up to $2.7 million and the provincial government will contribute up to $1.3 million towards water meter and service line replacement project. The City will fund the remainder of the project. The total eligible project cost is up to $5.4 million. WWW.WEYBURN.CA CITY OF WEYBURN P.O. Box 370 157 – Third St. N.E. Weyburn, Sask.

You are valued members of the health care team. We appreciate all the work that you do to provide care and support to patients and their families. Thank you to the SRNA for partnering with us to ensure that Saskatchewan is an attractive place for registered nurses to work and for supporting our efforts to build the province’s nursing workforce. Over the course of the past four years, we exceeded our Minister Duncan commitment to hire 800 new nurses and today there are over 940 more practicing across the province. Saskatchewan’s economy is growing and that means we will continue to need more registered nurses and other health care professionals, complete more surgeries, shorten wait times and improve patient care. We look forward to continuing to work in partnership with the SRNA in supporting the needs of Saskatchewan patients. Your government is committed to a health system that provides better health, better care, better value and better teams to serve the people of Saskatchewan, whether they live in urban centres or rural and remote areas of the province.

We’re very pleased to be holding the CADTH Symposium in Saskatoon, the Paris of the Prairies. Not only is Saskatoon a charming and vibrant city, but it’s also the largest city in Saskatchewan — the province where Canada’s publicly funded health system was born. Saskatchewan introduced the first provincial hospital insurance program in Canada in 1947 and the first free universal medical coverage in 1962. And so it seems appropriate that we’re gathering in Saskatchewan to discuss topics of great relevance to the continued quality and sustainability of the Canadian health care system. This year’s theme — What Does the Evidence Say? HTA to Support Policy and Practice — reminds us to consider the evidence when making decisions about the uptake and use of health technologies.

  • A Focus on Electoral Reform
    Canadian eview Focus on Electoral Reform. CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/WINTER 2016 1 Made of copper and gold-plated, Ontario’s Mace was crafted in Ottawa in 1867. It is the third Mace to be used in the province’s history since the establishment of the Legislature during colonial times in 1792. The province’s first Mace was captured by American soldiers during the War of 1812 and later returned, and the second – dating from around 1845 - ended up in the federal parliament following Confederation in 1867 and was subsequently destroyed during a 1916 fire. Sitting underneath the crown within decorative leaves, the cup of the current Mace features the insignia of King Edward VII. The original cup bore the initials V.R. for Victoria Regina and was recently rediscovered among the collection at the Royal Ontario Museum. It is now on display in the Legislative Building lobby. In 2009, the first two diamonds mined in Ontario were mounted into the crown of the Mace. One was left in the rough to represent the mining process, and the other was polished to signify the value of the diamond industry in Ontario. The polished diamond was inscribed with the Legislative Assembly of Ontario’s motto Audi Alteram Partem – “Hear the Other Side”. Parliamentary Protocol and Public Relations Branch, Legislative Assembly of Ontario 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/FALL 2016 Maisei Raman & Doug McLean/shutterstock.com The Canadian Parliamentary Review was founded in 1978 to inform Canadian legislators about activities of the federal, provincial and territorial branches of the Canadian Region of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association and to promote the study of and interest in Canadian parliamentary institutions.

S4T 2Z6 www.friendsofrpl.ca [email protected] 306-535-9570 March 22, 2021 Honourable Dustin Duncan Minister of Education Room 361, Legislative Building, 2405 Legislative Drive, Regina, SK, Canada, S4S 0B3 E-mail: [email protected] Re: Libraries in the 2021-22 provincial budget The Friends of the Regina Public Library (FRPL) are writing to express our continuing support for not only maintaining but enhancing the funding for all libraries in the provincial budget. Public access to information is a cornerstone of democracy. Libraries play an important role in being open and accessible so that all members of the public can obtain information and resources of many types free of charge. Libraries provide services to the public in general, and also provide specific programming and resources relating to Indigenous people, people with disabilities and newcomers. This past year they have been important in providing safe services to the public during the COVID-19 pandemic. Regina Public Library continues to lead the way in providing a cultural hub, starting with the Dunlop Art Gallery and the Film Theatre in the 1960s, and expanding into media and other creative opportunities. With the services they provide, libraries are a unifying component in the growing diversity of our province. FRPL Letter to Hon. Dustin Duncan, Minister of Education – March 22, 2021 Page 1 of 4 Libraries are also key in preserving and sharing important historical resources such as those available through the Prairie History Room in the Regina Public Library, the Local History Room in the Saskatoon Public Library, and the local history collections in our province’s local libraries.
