    Wow, looks like the Conservatives really are going hard to try and unseat Ralph. If the 338 projection is right they could pull out the upset #skpoli #cdnpoli

    So excited to be doorknocking for @MichaelKramSK in Regina-Wascana tonight. @denisebatters and I are finding so many people who are saying they aren't voting for Ralph!

    A big kudos to all the journalists out in the field today, and who've covered the convoy protests. A lot of people have endured harassment, threats, and more over the past week but you kept telling the story and going into a hostile environments. Keep being brave and fair

    I started at Global Regina almost 6 years ago to the day, but now it's time for something new. I'm Ottawa bound next month to chase a new news opportunity, but more on that later. Saskatchewan has been home for most of my 31 years, and I'm really going to miss it here.

    I'm not too sure what #EarsToVets is all about, but the vet helped Pete a lot when he hurt his paw and he has ears for days.

    Just a few minutes after police came in and arrested at least one person at the convoy stage, organizers said they had to shut down due to weather. Speaker closes her speech with "where we go one we go all!" - the QAnon rallying cry
