City of PA will have support workers go with bylaw when they remove an encampment to help the people living there find alternatives. Federal $$ is helping pay for it. Yes that's a camp at city hall. #homelessness panow.com/2025/03/26/c...

A decision has - mostly - been made. Chambers were full last night, mainly supporters of a shelter with some passionate speakers. Next winter will be a challenge as the new building won't be ready before they have to vacate their current spot. #papoli #skpoli #housing panow.com/2025/03/25/c...

That's a lot of building and I've been told from local builders that they already can't find subcontractors. At the same time, the cost of rent keeps going up and so does the purchase price of homes. #housing #construction #princealbertSK panow.com/2025/03/18/r...

In 1990, Jose Valdez went missing in Edmonton. In 1997, a body was found in Lloydminster. It took 30 years and a DNA match to make the connection, solve a mystery and give a family some answers. Science for the win. Dedicated policing for the win. #science #SK battlefordsnow.com/2025/03/13/d...

The times are changing and so is crime. Prince Albert has a reputation as a high crime, high substance-abuse community but it does not happen in a silo. Police are working to address that. #policing #princealbertSK #crime panow.com/2025/03/06/r...

I talked to Chief Marshal Rob Cameron this am and got more details on exactly how the service will operate. No, you won't be able to call 911 and get them on the line, you still call your local office/detachment. #skpoli #policing panow.com/2025/03/04/f...

I reached out to Moe's office this morning to ask these exact questions. Waiting a response. Curious what people would like to see? Alcohol removed from shelves? Banning US cos from bidding on gov't jobs? Using potash/uranium as bargaining chips? #skpoli #tariffs
