Two P.A. backed resolutions to come forward at SUMA
The Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association’s (SUMA) annual convention is underway in Regina this week.
Each year, a number of resolutions are introduced on the convention floor outlining the top concerns of municipalities across the province. They are presented and discussed among elected officials and crafted by local mayors and councillors.
Two resolutions are on the agenda from the City of Prince Albert. The first concerns door-to-door postal services.
Citing the axe to door-to-door service in the fall of 2015 under then-Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the resolution calls for SUMA to approach the federal government to reinstate service in all Saskatchewan hometowns as soon as possible. The change is said to have impacted over 9,000 addresses in Prince Albert.
