One candidate has announced her intention of running for the Sask. Party nomination for Prince Albert Carlton, the seat Joe Hargrave recently announced he would vacate.

Meghan Mayer, who owns a hair salon with her husband and is a pastor at Embassy Church, has said she will seek the nomination.

“I love this community. I have lived, worked and raised my family in this community for over 30 years. It is home,” said Mayer. “My background in business and pastoring gives me a diverse perspective on the different needs within our community, and I have a vested interest in the various economic challenges we face.”

In addition to being a pastor and owning a business, Mayer has two children and has spent time as chairperson of the Chamber of Commerce for one term and was a director on the Downtown Business Development Board.

“I believe in people and in community,” said Mayer. “I want to take my experience supporting business, non-profits and community groups to the provincial level. There are so many opportunities for growth in our community, and I believe that together, with hard work and vision, we can achieve great things.”
