Letter: Decision on where to build a new power plant reached in a fair manner?

The editor: According to my usually reliable sources, there has been a very spirited debate within the Saskatchewan Party regarding the location of a 350 megawatt power plant, scheduled to be built near either Swift Current or Lanigan.

According to my usually reliable sources, there has been a very spirited debate within the Saskatchewan Party regarding the location of a 350 megawatt power plant, scheduled to be built near either Swift Current or Lanigan.

I have also learned that Donna Harpuer, MLA for Humboldt, has expressed both surprise and disappointment with the announcement that the plantโ€™s chosen site will be near Swift Current. She also is reported to have said the people of Lanigan, which is located in her constituency, were particularly disappointed with the announcement.

I can only conclude that my MLA here in Swift Current presented a better case to the Premier of Saskatchewan. So, get over it Lanigan. It was all done fair and square.
