When Actions Speak Louder than Words
Every day I am humbled and honoured to serve the people of Prince Albert, because every day I have the opportunity to meet and talk with members of our community. And the one overarching theme that I hear most often is optimism for the future of our city and the province.
All too often negative voices seem to make the papers but negativity did not build our strong province, optimism did. While there is still more work to do, by partnering with the hardworking people in Prince Albert, we have a stronger, more prosperous, more optimistic community.
One sure sign of this optimism is population growth. Record numbers of people are coming to Saskatchewan to live, work and raise their families. This growth reverses years of decline, when the people of Prince Albert would too often see young people move away to find work.
Today Prince Albert is creating new jobs and opportunities. Optimism in our business community is high. Thanks to a growing economy, our government has been able to make key investments in areas that previous governments neglected and ignored. From healthcare to senior’s care, policing and safety, schools and highways, the people of Prince Albert have good reason to be optimistic.
