  • 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.

  • 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.

  • SARM Convention Highlights 2021
    Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities 116th Annual Convention & Tradeshow March 9-10, 2021 SARM.ca For the first time in SARM's 116-year history, a global pandemic brought us together in a digital format which allowed us to ensure the health and safety of our members. 2020 was a challenging year, and it’s all the more reason we needed the opportunity to re-unite at our annual convention. We built this year’s convention rooted in tradition with the understanding the importance of being grounded while growing. Opening Ceremonies & Addresses SARM’s 2021 Digital Annual Convention was kicked off by our convention host, Rustie Dean. You may have recognized her from her time with Global News Regina on the morning show or on Morning Radio on Play 92 FM. She now resides on a grain farm near Lang with her husband Brendon Sobchuk and two young boys Porter and Boden. Rustie’s personality brought humour and fun to our convention and her experience was a welcome touch to tradition. Our digital format allowed us to showcase talent from throughout Saskatchewan. Our national anthem was performed by RJC High School Choir from Rosthern, SK, and was followed by a moment of silence to honour RM council members and employees who passed away over the last year. The Lieutenant Governor presented the award for outstanding service to rural Saskatchewan, SARM recognized the contributions of both Carmen Sterling and Wendy Gowda and addresses were given by the following dignitaries: • The Honourable Don McMorris, Minister of Government Relations • Guy Lagrandeur, RMAA President • Ray Orb, SARM President 1 President’s Address SARM’s 2020 Annual Convention began with opening ceremonies and an address from SARM President Ray Orb.

    Dear SGEU member: The Saskatchewan government is proposing to privatize food services in our adult corrections and young offender centres in Regina, Saskatoon and Prince Albert. This move will result in the elimination of 64 SGEU member positions and could be a first step towards the full-scale privatization of corrections and young offender services. It is a further erosion of the strong public services SGEU members are proud to provide and that make our province a great place to live. Help us stop the privatization of corrections food services. We can make a difference. Our goal is to show government that Saskatchewan people do not want to go down the privatization road.
