The Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association’s annual convention has wrapped up, closing out four days of discussion, debate, and collaboration among municipal leaders from across the province.

From larger urban centres to smaller communities, the focus this year was clear—working together to build stronger, more sustainable municipalities for the future.

The convention once again provided a valuable space for delegates to connect, share ideas, and tackle the challenges they have in common.

Key issues on the agenda included infrastructure needs, provincial funding, regional cooperation, the long-term viability of smaller communities, and access to healthcare—topics that continue to shape conversations in council chambers across Saskatchewan.

Following the convention, we spoke with SUMA President Randy Goulden about her takeaways from this year’s gathering, the direction members have set through newly passed policies, and what lies ahead as the organization reaches the halfway point of its 2024 to 2028 mandate.

We also asked about the overall mood among municipal leaders as they look to the future.

That conversation—coming up next on Municipal Affairs.
