Man is he a moron…

Rashovich asks about reducing money for Currie field b/c there's a potential of US BUILDING A NEW BASEBALL STADIUM OR SOMEONE BUILDING ONE FOR US.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW COUNCILLOR?!?!?!? #yqrcc

YouTube video by CBC News Saskatchewan Another Regina police officer caught snooping in private information

Const. Clinton Duquette accessed private information for years. Police say was 'going through some personal issues'

Duquette was suspended for a single day, and access to police database wasn't revoked

I'm not sure notifying the public about a survey on the last Friday before Christmas is going to help boost the confidence of the people who already don't trust the independent review into this summer's wildfires in Saskatchewan.

This just passed. City council cut its heritage grant program in half. It was told the program is already overprescribed meaning more people want the money.

Councillors also seemed to fundamentally not understand that money in the grant program is used for maintenance to MAINTAIN heritage status.

this is an EXCELLENT point that will fly right over the heads of the Grumpy Facebook Grandpas. #yqrcc

like… what does bezo want admin to do to recover unpaid parking tickets?
send the cops?
legbreakers?
intergalactic bounty hunters?
this fucking guy… i tell ya. #yqrcc

here's turnbull's motion
am i suprised that it has 5 subpoints?
only in that it isn't 15
#yqrcc

Some Councillors today: We've been handed a shit sandwich because things were kicked down the road.

Same Councillors: Let's kick stuff down the road.

bezo: amber (city clerk), you ready for this? I am going to bring forward that we cancel the electric buses that are coming.
mayor: that would not be in order b/c that is a purchase that has been made. #yqrcc

EDR is a mediocre white man promoted beyond his abilities in municipal corporation form. #yqrcc

CFO: Reserves are dangerously low. We used reserves to purchase the STC building for the RPS headquarters, pay for upgrades to the Globe & fund repayments to CRA for EDR & REAL. #yqrcc

Flores asks about bike routes.
McLaughlin: Only reason we can drive any where is b/c we have an interconnected road network. Same can be said of the bike network. #yqrcc

Flores: When you say People Over Profit, how do you correlate having a great place to live?
Mthembu: I heard someone say run the city like a business. I don't think its a business. I think it's where people live. #yqrcc

Prsa says downtown is facing significant challenges.
You mean like how Harvard buildings keep burning down or being demolished? That IS challenging. #yqrcc

I've repeated this at nauseum. So has city administration. But choosing the political expediency of no mill rate increases or mill rate increases below inflation only pushes the bill down the road. It doesn't make the need for money disappear.

Cantello: This is an adjustment year. You can go back to the original sin of Pat Fiacco. Putting in zero percent mill rate years. Inflation always exists. You have to raise mill rate as long as there is inflation. 15% represents year's of backlog. #yqrcc

Cantello: By the same logic, the budget you've been presented with is in the same condition. It's like council has been out for a fine dinner and now that the bill has come you're saying, I don't want to pay for half of this. #yqrcc

Here's Florence's submission to council. #yqrcc

Like, what did guys like Tsiklis think was going to happen when they voted to see — y'know, just as an "experiment — what a 5% mill rate reduction would look like? #yqrcc

WIlson: Please do not raise fares. Do not remove school routes. Do not remove late night, holiday services. Do not make cuts to paratransit, that would be deadly. We will be watching you. Will you prioritize people or profit? #yqrcc

Miller: Our Regina's transit usage has increased by over 30% but no one is focusing on that. But nobody is focusing on that, they're focusing on "I saw an empty bus once" which can happen when buses come on a route. #yqrcc

Never seen Bezo so happy. #yqrcc

Flores: What about 15, 16, 17 which are low performing routes?
Singh: I don't think there are low performing routes. Look at how many people get a benefit. Even if just 3 seniors get on, those are 3 seniors who have no other way to get around. #yqrcc

This guy rules. #yqrcc

Singh: When I first moved to Sask 21 yrs ago i was not used to cold temperatures. I arrived w/ $6k to my name & could not afford a proper winter jacket. I'll never forget walking 45min home from my job at Burger King in -40 weather & almost dying. #yqrcc

What a Bozo

Regina transit workers respond to proposed budget cuts with strike mandate The Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 588 Regina has delivered a strike mandate in response to proposed service reductions in the 2026-27 City of Regina budget.

That special councilor should spend an hour or so in -40c weather waiting for a bus. Or have to walk miles to a operational route from the ones that are being canceled. Or try to get home in a wheelchair because you missed the new 1030pm cutoff time

Sign the Petition Stop the cuts to community grants & associations

Former Councillor Andrew Stevens set up a petition you can sign if you also oppose the proposed cuts. Deadline is Dec 10 to put your name on the list. www.change.org/p/stop-the-c... #yqrcc
