Council being foolish, but premier should butt out Let it be known that while I disagree with Regina banning advertising and sponsorship from fossil fuel producers , which would effectively transfer lost revenue from those to already excessive property and school taxes, I also don’t think our premier should stick his nose into that decision (Leader-Post, Jan. 21). Would I welcome Shell Leisure Centre or Suncor Food Bank to Regina? Yes, and so would most Reginans. If such companies are willing to contribute to our citizens, why not accept the benefits? If councillors want to drive electric cars, all the more power to them (no pun intended), but they should make sure these vehicles are recharged only by solar or wind power.
