1/4 After reading the oath he took upon becoming Speaker, here are the remarks of Randy Weekes from yesterday.

The day before this, a letter was read into the record by former Sergeant at Arms describe harassing behaviour by Minister Tell.

It speaks to a pattern. 2/4 After this, Moe called Randy - a 6 term Sask party stalwart - a sore loser. Randy was a straight shooter throughout his term. They hated that. The intimidation started well before he lost his nomination. Timing suggests he was taken down for doing his job/not toeing line.

Today I was very proud to introduce a suite of accountability & transparency mechanisms on behalf of the @Sask_NDP.

These represent our commitment to Saskatchewan people that we would be an open, transparent, and accountable government working to serve the public, not ourselves. Bill 617 amends the conflict of interest Act. I believe Sask Party MLAs have breached the Act. Today I reached out to the Commissioner to provide his opinion on this. Proposed changes would require more details on member disclosure & expand the Act to cover apparent conflicts.

1/3 This week, the @CityofRegina council unanimously approved a 1 million $ grant to support a renewable fuel refinery that would produce 1 billion litres of renewable✈️⛴️🚗🚂 fuels per yr with the potential to create hundreds, even thousands of jobs in the #YQR area! 👏👏👏 2/3 I just a/t fell off my🪑when I saw the Sask Party gov't passed the buck, rejecting True North Renewable Fuels’ proposal despite that fed clean tech grants can't be accessed w/t a minimum pledge from the province (or delegate).

Kudos to #yqr council for keeping this alive!
