Saskatchewan premier, federal Conservative leader skipping Regina Pride Parade
REGINA — The office of Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says he won’t be attending this month’s Queen City Pride Parade in Regina because of a heavy international travel schedule but will be in the province on the day of the event.
“During Queen City Pride, the premier is planned to be in his constituency of Rosthern-Shellbrook,” Moe’s spokesman Jim Billington said in an emailed statement.
“With international travel scheduled in the premier’s itinerary for the month of June … many other events are considered along with other demands on the premier’s schedule while he is in different regions around the province.”
Moe is attending meetings in Washington, D.C., next week with senators, members of Congress and three senior members of the White House to discuss trade. He’s also attending the Western Governors Conference in South Dakota from June 25 to 27.
