At least one Saskatchewan city is postponing its civic election after the weekend snowstorm that hit the province.
Swift Current officials let it be known around 10:30 Monday morning that there would be no voting due to the cleanup the city has in front of it after a substantial snowfall hit making it difficult to travel both inside and outside the city.
The decision came after a Ministerial Order was signed by Government Relations Minister Lori Carr allowing each municipality’s appointed returning officer to postpone the elections.
BREAKING NEWS: The Swift Current municipal and school board elections have been moved to Thursday, November 12 to allow voters safe access to Polling Stations. All polls are closed today.
