Former minister not ready to see STC go
The former minister of the Saskatchewan Transportation Company isn’t ready to see the bus service go.
Wednesday marks the final day for the STC following the announcement the provincially owned bus line would be eliminated after 71 years. The main reason for the decision, according to the Sask. Party, was the bus service didn’t generate enough money to cover the costs to run it and few people took advantage of it.
But Ward 4 Coun. Don Cody doesn’t buy that story.
Cody, who served as the minister overseeing STC back in 1978, argues the decision to shut the bus service down was philosophical, not economical.
