Brian Crossman: Farewell to Gormley, and hello to Bray
I’d like to close by thanking Mr. John Gormley for his years of service to the people of Saskatchewan, and for giving us a place to meet and a radio to yell at on occasion. It was always interesting and at times, a whole lot of fun. We in the “patch” have always listened to you. The men and women of the industry were always happy you paid attention to us and genuinely cared about our contributions to the province. I am confident that Evan will do the same, and the oilpatch will be “listening” with great interest.
Brian Zinchuk: Peter Prebble says Sask’s emissions are “way, way out of line with the global community.” Whose fault is that?
if Prebble had been an advocate instead of an enemy of nuclear, if he fought for it instead of being the principle opponent, and convinced others within the NDP of the same, maybe Saskatchewan would have built reactors under the Calvert administration.
