@davidakin @MMandryk @PierrePoilievre Thank you for that Mr. Akin, it takes some guts/courage to be honest. Unfortunate reality remains, our Media in Can including Prov and Muni far too often allow their biases to shine through influencing readers in a way that does not move us forward for benefit of all CDN's.

@BradWall306 Agreed. So why are we mothballing them then? Why isn't our @SKGov truly standing up for Saskatchewan? There are far greater economic spinoffs & jobs for SK people & SK small businesses with CC coal power than there ever will be with the alternatives being put in place. #skpoli

At a certain price for natural gas which we are now beyond..this BD3 coal power is not only lower emissions than - but cost competitive with CCGT natural gas.

Yesterday I spent the day touring the @SaskPower Boundary Dam Carbon Capture Unit, Aquistore research facility and the Electrical Generation Plant. So much passion from all people involved.

@hinz_tamara @usask @SPHERUsask for guidance. Yet seems the only advocacy we saw on this platform was that of calling for further/more aggressive lockdowns and restrictions. Or at most times, purely political critic. Respectfully, how does this align with the near and dear part? 2/2

@hinz_tamara @usask @SPHERUsask Dr. Hinz, great to see some light shed on this serious issue. I was surprised, perhaps even shocked not to see ant foresight or advocacy from you or your many of your colleagues on this in real time during the pandemic. Seemed many recognized this would/was any issue & looking 1/

.@usask did a little story on our study. This may come as a surprise to you, but mental health and advocacy are near and dear to my heart 😜 Thanks to Nazeem, @SPHERUsask, and the whole team for all your work on this project; research truly takes a village news.usask.ca/articles/colle…

@MMandryk @leaderpost As we sadly have no real political opposition (crucial in healthy democracy no matter the flag anyone flies) the media sees it as their role to be the “watchdog”. If true, please focus on the real things rather than political biases. #skpoli

@MMandryk @leaderpost 2 years if your doctor will even see you. Might be easy to blame “COVID” or other things but reality is losing focus (what Lean is about) and perhaps region imalagamation to “1” was the bigger misstep. 2/3

241 Saskatchewan people have died from covid in the 8 weeks since since we stopped reporting daily cases. Guess how long it took to reach our first 241 deaths? 10.5 months. Covid isn't over.

@MMandryk So what do you think @MMandryk should we shut it all down and call it a day?!? We could all move to another Province, you could continue reporting on the idealistic things you don’t like & the rest of use could keep things going so you can put food on the table! #skpoli #reality

@MMandryk @leaderpost As for the "Little Guy" you mentioned. Due to overall demand of resources, agriculture, forestry, even tech, on and on, that our province is so fortunate to be rich in. Those same hard working folks are about to see bigger increases than they have in generations.

@MMandryk @leaderpost Soaring gas prices, indeed they are. Thankfully these increase are also the same royalties that help to keep other increases/deficits at a low. Aren't you, along with idealists, suggested only a couple years ago that fossil fuels were out and oil would never see >$50 oil again?

@ECraigLothian By what equation exactly??? Why do we choose to live in these freaking cities and pay taxes? What are the chances of any SK cities #yxe #yqr #yxecc #yqrcc and others hitting any targets, on budget/time in particular?

Impeccable timing. Anti-oil climate zealots have created $100+ oil & $2/liter gasoline. Trying to "eliminate" hydrocarbons before the technology exists to effectively replace them, will only drive prices higher. People in Europe will soon be freezing to death. But hey, #GoGreen
CTV Regina@ctvregina

On Monday, the City of Regina will release its proposed Energy & Sustainability Framework, highlighting a plan for the city to become 100 per cent renewable and achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. #yqr #sk regina.ctvnews.ca/we-want-a-bett…

My 5 year-old just announced that all guests to his birthday party in July would be "fully vaccinated and boosted", because "the virus will still be here".

Romanian MEP @CristianTerhes absolutely mops the floor with PM @JustinTrudeau in Brussels this week over how he's handling the Ottawa #FreedomConvoy2022 protests. "He's exactly like a tyrant, a dictator. He's like Ceaușescu in Romania," said Terhes.

When @PremierScottMoe speaks about @SKGov consultation about this COVID policy he claims they have consulted with all organizations. That is simply not true

@PremierScottMoe Bravo Mr. Premier! Great leadership. Only suggestion, make it more clear as relates to employment portion etc so we are all not forced to pay our lawyers more $$$ to figure it out once mandate lifted.
