Sask. Party releases list of MLAs, candidates with DUIs

In a move the party says is part of its candidate disclosure process, the Saskatchewan Party released a list of its MLAs and candidates who have impaired driving convictions in their past.

The list released Friday included Premier Scott Moe, whose 1992 drunk driving conviction was brought to the forefront in the 2015 spring election.

It also includes Indian Head-Milestone MLA Don McMorris, who was caught driving under the influence in 2016 at a time when he was the minister responsible for Saskatchewan Government Insurance and the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority.

Saskatoon University MLA Eric Olausson has two impaired driving convictions from 1992 and 1993. Canora-Pelly MLA Terry Dennis also has two convictions, coming 23 years apart in 1978 and 2001.

Martensville-Warman candidate Terry Jenson recorded an impaired driving conviction in 1994, while Saskatoon Fairview candidate Manny Sadhra recorded one in 2008.

A Saskatchewan Party spokesperson was unavailable for comment when reached Friday by 650 CKOM.
