Premier tours local wildfire sites
Saskatchewan’s leader has returned to the Parkland region.
Premier Scott Moe visited the Provincial Wildfire Centre just North of Prince Albert on May 16, where he spoke with media before departing on a tour of the region’s wildfires.
“Today’s a good day, I would say; the humidity is higher today, the winds are down a little bit and it looks like we might even get a squirt of rain, which ultimately, is the answer to any of these dry conditions that we have,” Moe said.
He said the fires are currently in hold mode, and crews are working to cut down fires to as small of an area as possible.
