WISHING YOU A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING WEEKEND
"For it is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful "– David Steindl-Rast
As we gather with family and friends this Thanksgiving, it is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on all that we have to be grateful for.
I am thankful for the people who make our communities strong - the families, volunteers, farmers, businesses, community organizations, and countless individuals who give their time and energy to help others.
I am especially grateful for the opportunity to serve and represent the people of Saskatoon Willowgrove and our great province of Saskatchewan. Your feedback, ideas, and dedication to our province continue to inspire me every day.
On behalf of my family, I wish you and your loved ones a very happy and safe Thanksgiving. May the weekend be filled with good food, meaningful conversations, and time with those who matter most.
NSBA - LESSONS I'VE LEARNED
What an incredible event October 6th! The largest NSBA dinner event ever held!
It was a pleasure to join nearly 700 people in attendance at the North Saskatoon Business Association (NSBA) for the 20th anniversary of Lessons I’ve Learned.
On behalf of the Government of Saskatchewan, congratulations to the NSBA for two decades of bringing together entrepreneurs, business leaders and professionals to share experiences, lessons and inspiration. Special shout out to Dinner Chair, Adelle Buettner, Board Chair, Curtis Kimpton and Executive Director , Keith Moen.
This year’s event was especially unique, bringing four friends and successful business leaders together on stage: Aaron Loraas, Christian Braid, John Nasser and Brett Marcoux, with Wanda Hunchak as emcee.
Their stories are a great reminder that success is built through hard work, perseverance, calculated risks and learning from challenges along the way.
Saskatchewan is fortunate to have an entrepreneurial spirit, talented people and the resources the world needs — food, fuel, fertilizer and critical minerals. Our business community continues to invest, innovate, create jobs and build opportunities.
The Government of Saskatchewan recognizes that a strong business community helps create the economic strength that supports the services Saskatchewan families rely on, including healthcare, education, training and infrastructure.
Congratulations to the NSBA on 20 years of Lessons I’ve Learned, and thank you to everyone who continues to build stronger businesses, communities and a stronger Saskatchewan.
RENEWING JOINT MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDING SUPPORTS A STRONG SASKATCHEWAN
Schmalz and Municipal Sector Travel to Ottawa October 6 and 7
Government Relations Minister Eric Schmalz and several Saskatchewan municipal leaders are traveling to Ottawa this week to meet with federal leaders as part of the province's on-going efforts for improved infrastructure investment programs.
"Investing in infrastructure remains a top priority for Saskatchewan's municipalities and we need greater flexibility in the federal government's cost-shared funding programs," Schmalz said. "Through our Team Saskatchewan approach, we are able to deliver this message directly to Ottawa, supporting the ability of our municipalities to meet the needs of growing communities."
Minister Schmalz will be joined by the cities of Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, Prince Albert, Swift Current, North Battleford, Yorkton, Weyburn and Lloydminster as well as leaders of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM), Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA), and Saskatchewan Association of Northern Communities (New North) in Ottawa October 6 and 7.
