WUHCA COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION MEETING
It was a pleasure to attend the Willowgrove University Heights Brighton Community Association meeting this past Tuesday.
I had the opportunity to present an MLA report including several topics:
- We had a good discussion regarding the need for new schools in our area.
- The recently announced announced Aquatic - Multi District Leisure Centre..
- We touched on the Saskatoon Enhanced Energy Shelter.
- I provided an update on the exciting downtown event and entertainment district.
I appreciated the opportunity to attend this meeting and am looking forward to attending the annual WUHA Winter Carnival. Be sure to check out the details of this fun event under Upcoming Events in this newsletter.
If you have a meeting you would like me to attend, please let me know. It is a privilege to connect with my constituents.
SASKATCHEWAN TOP PROVINCE FOR ENERGY SECTOR COMPETITIVENESS
Saskatchewan is the most attractive jurisdiction in Canada for oil and gas investment, according to the Fraser Institute's 2023 Canada-US Energy Sector Competitiveness Survey. Overall, Saskatchewan ranked third in the survey out of 17 competing jurisdictions.
"Saskatchewan continues to assert itself as a reliable energy investment jurisdiction," Energy and Resources Minister Jim Reiter said. "Our government will continue to fight for, and support, the jobs and growth that 26,000 energy workers and their families in Saskatchewan have come to rely on. We look forward to further improving our investment attraction in the years to come."
The province is the highest-ranked province and the only Canadian region to break the top five, with Alberta and British Columbia coming in ninth and 15th, respectively. This continues the province's upward growth among jurisdictions in Canada and the United States (US) after ranking sixth in 2022, and 11th the year prior.

The vehicle is equipped with multiple tools and resources that assist personnel during an incident, including radio communications, weather forecasting equipment and various video devices.
