MooseJaw

At today’s Board of Police Commissioners meeting, the Moose Jaw Police Service revealed that they’ve been conducting a project in Crescent Park to determine if there is an issue with encampments. 

The 21-day project took place Oct. 7 through Oct. 28, after concerns from the public about perceived encampments in the park, with regular checks undertaken by police during the day and night to look for shelters and tents in the area.  

Tell us a little bit about yourself and why you decided to run for mayor. 

Well, I'm really running for mayor because I believe that Moose Jaw is at a crucial point for growth and development and this role is to seek out opportunities for our city and to build partnerships. And I believe we've missed some opportunities that would have brought more jobs to our city.

“Usually there’s a hockey game on the evening before – the 10th of November – and this year there isn’t one,” explained Christine Simpson, first vice-president of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #59. 

Q. Why are you running for mayor/council?

A. I chose to run for council again because I felt I have something to offer as a city councillor. I am a common sense problem solver with a business background. I love this community and will put its citizens first when making decisions about the city and the those who live here. 

Q. Do you have experience in public service/community boards/politics?

Donald Trump clinched the United States election after a tumultuous campaign as Canadian officials espoused the important relationship between neighbours in congratulations to the former president on his extraordinary comeback.

"I will govern by a simple motto: promises made, promises kept," Trump said to cheering party faithful at a Florida watch party.

Trump was elected the 47th president of the U.S. amidst a deeply divided America by prevailing among voters in the key battleground states.

Meet the Adams Family - a bizarre clan that most people would find odd for their interest in the macabre and grotesque.

He's back and he's promising to "make America great again".

Donald Trump was declared President-elect this morning. He delivered a victory speech at his watch party in West Palm Beach, Florida just after 2 o'clock in the morning.

It's interesting to note, Trump is the second President in US history to serve non-consecutive terms. The first was Grover Cleveland in the late 19th century.
