Listen to more commentary from Murray Wood:
Thurs., May 15: Murray Wood takes a close look at Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new cabinet, which includes a representative from Saskatchewan in Buckley Belanger. Steven Guilbeault is still in cabinet, but Wood says he should stay well away from the environment portfolio.
Wed., May 14: The City of Regina is paying nearly $7 million to get Costco to build its second location inside city limits, instead of at the Global Transportation Hub. Murray Wood wants to know when taxpayers at various levels will stop paying for the hub.
