REGINA - Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says an upcoming sit-down of Canada’s premiers is an important chance to send a message to a prime minister dealing with regional divisions. Ontario Premier Doug Ford offered earlier this year to hold the meeting to address what he called Western Canada’s alienation following the federal election. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberals secured a minority government, but won no seats in Saskatchewan and Alberta, while the Bloc Quebecois surged in Quebec. “This particular meeting, I would say, is an important meeting,” Moe said Thursday. That meeting ended with Alberta Premier Jason Kenney saying national unity was under threat.
