Prime Minister and Premier relay resources
Saskatchewan’s premier says the entire province is grieving following the ‘horrific attacks’ that occurred in northeast Saskatchewan Sunday, but more must be done to help those affected. In a video posted to his social media, Scott Moe said the attention must turn to what’s needed now the most – care and support for the victims and their families.
“There are no words to adequately describe the pain and loss suffered by the victim’s families…this loss caused by these evil, vicious senseless attacks. All of Saskatchewan grieves with you, but we must do more.”
In the video, Moe, who is standing in a field being harvested, said Saskatchewan’s Provincial Command has been activated which helps coordinate and deploy any resources that the province can provide.
“The province’s victim services were deployed to the (James Smith Cree Nation) area yesterday. The local school has set up a centre for those who need service,” Moe said. “The PAGC (Prince Albert Grand Council) and health authority will provide social supports in the weeks to come.”
