Regina bypass

[the big wheel]

The bypass it great and there is still bottlenecking at chamberlain and only a two lane highway south to the border....

Now the question is where is the traffic coming from or going to?


The GTH for a million people in the province will never work when the goods have come from through the most populated cities in North America...That is a really simple fact...or if you are going to bring goods to regina and then truck them to the polluted cities....well its just stupid....and inefficient....but I think they are still trying to link the GTH to the future build of the south Quappelle irrigation project ....

How much corruption and payoffs and profits to friends of the party did this cost the tax payer?

Sure it looks nice and modern great but when you don’t have decent hospitals in both cities when you don’t staff the hospitals properly building a road like this is just seems disproportionate. It was built in the idea that 110 dollar oil would go to 200 and production. Would ramp up is what this really was built on.
The only way Regina will grow to fully utilize this is if other industries besides oil get developed within the province. And this government has no interest in developing anything other than the oil industry. Which has a time limit in it. It will not totally be eliminated not sure if ever but much of it will be replaced and demand will be lower that is a fact.

We desperately need a new thinking on what we should be producing.

No industry is coming to Saskatchewan unless government gives them a handout ....I have been to enough meetings and listened to people talk.....every industry looks for handouts in the form of tax breaks or direct money...

1. Why wasn't Roquette located here?
2. What happened to the pea plant in Moose Jaw ?
3. Morris industries has been given money ?
4. DOT is the prairie's bombardier and will be for a while...
5. Why isn't there a healthy feedlot and slaughter industry here in saskatchewan?


I can go on but the capitalists are the biggest government pigs and tit suckers and politicians fall for it everytime...for a lousy per diem or board seat while primary producers are forgotten....

The bigger question for the bypass is....do they have an infill plan?

residential, commercial, industrial and are they going to keep it well spaced to allow more traffic lanes....

City planners seem a little stupid when you look at parking lots around box stores on the east side of regina for allowing curbs to be built and micro traffic issues ....coupled with the annoyance of winter cleaning....

I never thought I would say this but the pure capitalist angle is probably not the way. Its too easy for any industry to simply bail when they dont like the condtions. Yes there should be free flow of capital but when it lands it has to come with some sort of committment past the next quarter.

Maybe there needs to be a P3 type funding plan for creating business here. where the public and govt can be a minority backer but not involved in the operations and if the company decides the take off, that entitty could buy it out and make sure it remains local. Kind of like the upgrader, except that was the opposite, govt money first then a private buyer.

We have pension plans that could be part owner in these things.

If we have a fraction of the subsidies to these companies instead of oil companies they would all be here just think about that it is a fact. We farmers could have a lot of secondary opportunities for our product right here if they got help like the oil industry does.

But we ve been brainwashed into thinking the oil industry just does all they do on their own they don’t.

We have an oil owned provincial government and that is the main reason there has been next to nothing else happen here.

Maybe here is a big benefit


No one ****ing died trying to cross at Balgonie, pilot bute or going to timmys at white city.


**** people wake up.

I drive that road every day twice and I’ve seen enough blankets covering someone who’s dead a few times.

It’s a bypass.

Also let’s look at the ndp and all the shit they destroyed.

How many loyal guards of the ndp got payoffs.
