SCOTT MOE’S PRINCE ALBERT MLA SPENDS TIME PATTING HIMSELF ON THE BACK, DOES NOTHING TO SOLVE HEALTHCARE, CRIME ISSUES IN CITY

Sask. Party Continues To Break Promises Concerning Victoria Hospital, Ignores Cancer Victims
PRINCE ALBERT – One of Scott Moe’s Prince Albert MLAs is spending his time recording self-congratulatory videos all the while completely ignoring very serious healthcare and public safety issues being faced in his city.

First, Prince Albert Carlton MLA Kevin Kasun published a video regarding the Victoria Hospital expansion but completely ignoring recently surfaced revelations that the Moe Government is holding the project hostage for $30 million after previously promising the city and citizens that it would fully cover the project.

Then, just hours later, Kasun published a second video about crime in Prince Albert, where he again claimed to be getting results, even as crime rates in the city have shot up. Severe crime in Saskatchewan is double the national average and Prince Albert’s crime rate has consistently been among the highest in Canada in recent years.

“The only one congratulating Kevin Kasun is, well, Kevin Kasun,” said Jared Clarke, Saskatchewan NDP Shadow Minister for Rural & Remote Health. “Scott Moe has either decided to let his MLAs run wild in pursuit of Spielberg-like film aspirations, or he’s openly feeding his own members a pack of lies.

“Here are the facts for Kevin Kasun — crime rates are far too high in Prince Albert and healthcare has never been in worse shape than it is right now.”

Last week, Carla Beck’s team joined former Prince Albert city councilor Dennis Ogrodnick to again call for the elimination of parking fees for cancer victims. Ogrodnick has terminal cancer and has vowed to fight the Sask. Party-run health authority’s cruel policy regarding parking fees to his dying breath.

Ogrodnick said MLA Kasun completely ignored him when he took his cause to the sidewalk outside a Sask. Party event last year.

“For Kevin Kasun and Scott Moe, you have to be a Sask. Party donor or insider to get an audience — everyone else gets left behind,” Clarke said. “Prince Albert deserves so much better from their provincial government. They deserve quality healthcare and safer streets and communities. It really is time for change.”
