Estevan Mercury

SaskPower says a large transmission outage was the source of the power failure Wednesday in southeast Saskatchewan.

The French delegation arrived at the Royal Canadian Legion's Estevan branch on Dec. 5. Participating in a meet and greet were Spenst's family and friends, legion members, the Estevan Police Service, local RCMP and Canada Border Service Agency members, as well as Souris-Moose Mountain MP Robert Kitchen, Mayor Roy Ludwig and authorities. 

Ludwig confirmed last week in a phone call with the Mercury and SaskToday that he would not seek another term as mayor in the 2024 civic election.
