Lt-Gov. Bernadette McIntyre will officially open the Second Session of the Thirtieth Legislature with the Speech from the Throne on Wed., Oct. 22, at the Saskatchewan Legislative Building.
“This will be my first opportunity since being installed on January 31 to participate in an opening of a Legislative Session,” McIntyre said in a media release. “Reading the Speech from the Throne is a significant responsibility and great privilege as His Majesty’s provincial representative.”
The public ceremony will begin at 1:20 p.m. outside the Legislative Building, where Premier Scott Moe will greet the Lieutenant Governor before taking part in the traditional opening events. Moe said the government remains focused on strengthening Saskatchewan’s economy, ensuring community safety, and securing the province’s future.
The opening of the Legislative Assembly has taken place for every session since 1906, continuing Saskatchewan’s long-standing parliamentary tradition.
