Dear Editor
As the Chief Administrative Officer for Kindersley, I can say that Gerry Ritz strongly represented us locally and regionally. Many community projects that received Federal funding would never have materialized had it not been for his support. This includes the Water West Project that received huge financial support and supplies fresh drinking water to thousands in west central Saskatchewan. In addition to being the champion for opening grain markets for farmers, champion changes with the railroads to force equal opportunity for grain as well as oil on the tracks, he was also a key Minister focusing on trade which opened global markets for Saskatchewan products. From my professional vantage I can say that his hard work bore us much fruit. Good luck Gerry with the next phase of life, and thank you for your service.
