Premier Defends SPSA Amid Wildfire Criticism
from Ottawa News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Premier Scott Moe refuses to step down or remove key officials despite damning reports revealing the SPSA was unprepared for 2025’s catastrophic wildfires. While audits from the auditor general and MNP flagged leadership confusion and systemic gaps, Moe vows to strengthen wildfire response through better communication and community support — without changing leadership. Opposition demands the resignation of former SPSA minister Tim McLeod, now attorney general, and a Denare Beach resident backs the call — but Moe dismisses it as unserious, praising McLeod’s work and confirming SPSA president Marlo Pritchard’s retention. Meanwhile, SPSA VP Steve Roberts is retiring early, June-end. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
