Moose Jaw has been experiencing a downward trend in provincial
government presence in the city.
Two researchers — Angela Markel and Irene Zadnik — were hired by
the economic development commission (EDC) in April 2012 to do a review of the
presence from 1990 to 2012 at a cost of $10,000. Markel was ill for Tuesday
night’s council meeting, but Zadnik presented the findings to council.
The institutions examined were SIAST, provincial public service
employees, SaskWater, SaskTel and Valley View Centre, which is slated for
closure in 2016.
“Moose Jaw has been left behind compared to Saskatoon,” said
Zadnik.
