Well after 12 years and countless events, hockey games and seeing the lives of the people of Melfort the time has come to move on. I recently accepted a position as the new regional civic affairs reporter at the Prince Albert Daily Herald and the February 21 issue marks the last time you will see my work in the Journal.
A lot can happen over 12 years I have covered so many things and written so many stories that it is hard to remember them all. Since I was initially hired as a sports reporter those stories stuck out. However there is stories from every part of the job when I became the lone reporter and before.

The City of Prince Albert’s proposed residency policy will return to the council table Tuesday.
The policy was last discussed at a council meeting in April when it was sent back to executive committee for further clarification.
The policy would make it mandatory for all out-of-scope employees to live within city limits or be terminated from their position. Employees hired prior to the policy’s creation, unionized employees governed by collective bargaining agreements and police, who are governed by the Board of Police Commissioners, would be exempt from the policy. Employees hired for a casual, term or temporary position are also exempt.
In the early morning hours of April 8, fire crews and RCMP were dispatched to a property in the Lily Plain area, located within the Rural Municipality (RM) of Duck Lake. Div. 6 Councillor Paul Allman said the tragic event has been felt by everyone.
“The RM goes all the way to Rosthern but I think everybody in the RM feels for the family,” he said, adding he is also not surprised by the tremendous outpouring of support given how close everyone is in the community.
In a statement provided to
paNOW, the family expressed their gratitude for all the support they have received.
