Some facts and figures about the federal riding of Regina Wascana
REGINA — Regina Wascana
It’s round two for the Conservatives, who are running the same candidate against longtime Liberal MP and cabinet minister Ralph Goodale. He’s the lone Liberal in the House of Commons from Saskatchewan and it’s been that way for years. Goodale has held the riding since 1993. His opponents are making a concerted effort to tie him to western alienation felt in Saskatchewan. He’s been the target of criticism, including from Premier Scott Moe, over federal infrastructure dollars and energy policies such as the carbon tax.
