What Randy Weekes Is Really Telling Us
Last week, on Thursday (May 16, 2024), the 27th Speaker of the Saskatchewan Legislative Assembly, Randy Weekes, read into the record his fear that one of the most powerful Ministers in Scott Moe's Cabinet, Jeremy Harrison, might try to kill him.
Everytime I think I’ve definitely written about Saskatchewan, the Sask Party hitting absolute rock bottom, my expectations are again exceeded.
In a long, sometimes rambling speech, halted at times by attempts to regain his composure, Speaker Weekes levelled jaw-dropping allegation after allegation of workplace harassment and bullying at his Sask Party caucus colleagues.
From coping with members of his party’s outright disregard for Legislative Assembly rules, to enduring violent, potentially criminal, threatening and harassing behaviour, Weekes excoriated some of the most powerful men and women in Moe’s cabinet with anecdotes of outrageously bad behaviour.
