Premier Wall witnesses fire efforts first hand
Premier Brad Wall made the trip to northern Saskatchewan on Tuesday, but wasn’t able to go as far as he had hoped.
Wall wanted to touch base with firefighting efforts in both Prince Albert and La Ronge. When he made it to P.A., visibility conditions had grounded flights to the north.
At the Prince Albert Municipal Airport air tank base, he spoke very highly of the efforts.
“It was very impressive to go to the firebase here and see the response that’s been coordinated,” said Wall. “Really, this is a province-wide issue, obviously the smoke’s made it that.”
