TRUDEAU TO NAME NEW RCMP BOSS IN REGINA
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has a busy schedule in Regina today, including the naming of a new RCMP commissioner. Sources say the prime minister will name Brenda Lucki to the post during an event at the force’s “Depot” training academy. Trudeau is also set to deliver remarks at a library about parental leave measures in last week’s federal budget, and he’ll meet with new Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe. Last night, Trudeau told supporters at a fundraiser that Canada needs to do more to help Indigenous people.
