Larry Doke ready for final months as MLA
Despite his last day in session, MLA Larry Doke said things aren’t likely to slow down this summer for his office.
The legislative assembly member for Cut Knife-Turtleford plans on tackling as many local issues as possible until his last day in September. He’s looking at a slowdown in local business due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and hopes to get a few projects in motion before election season begins.
“I think everyone’s trying clean up any outstanding issues, so our office has been busy,” Doke said.
Doke will leave office after 30 years of municipal and provincial politics. Prior to his election win in 2011, he served on the North Battleford City Council and the Chamber of Commerce, as well as 16 years as councillor for the Resort Village of Metinota, where he resides with his wife Valerie.
