Statement by Official Opposition Leader Ryan Meili in response to the resignation of Highways Minister Joe Hargrave

In response to Minister Joe Hargrave’s resignation from Cabinet today, Official Opposition Leader Ryan Meili issued the following statement:

“Premier Moe refused to show leadership today. Three days ago when the Minister’s actions were fine. Today when his bogus story about finalizing the sale of his house was exposed, Premier Moe said it was “irrelevant” but because of public pressure the Minister had to go. He shows no real understanding of the anger his government’s arrogance has caused. We all know none of this would have happened if they hadn’t been caught. There was no apology. The people of Saskatchewan deserve much better.”
