Premier Scott Moe will welcome Alberta Premier Jason Kenney to the Saskatchewan Oil and Gas Show at the Weyburn Curling Club on June 5.

In the photo above, he is shown walking around at the Rally Against the Carbon Tax held in April. Many of the companies which had trucks and banners at the rally will also be the Oil Show.

Premier Moe will also be holding a cabinet meeting on Wednesday morning. Premier Moe and Premier Kenney will participate in a joint panel discussion at the 2019 Saskatchewan Oil & Gas Recognition Awards Luncheon as part of the Saskatchewan Oil and Gas Show at the Weyburn Curling Club.

Premier Moe will also participate in the Saskatchewan Oil and Gas Recognition Awards Ceremony, where the industry Hall of Fame and Legends awards will be presented.

Members of cabinet will also be touring around the Oil Show grounds after the cabinet meeting. This will be the first time that a provincial cabinet meeting has been held in conjunction with the Oil Show.

There will also be two special guest speakers at this year’s Oil show, including researcher and blogger Vivian Krause on Wednesday following the noon awards luncheon, and commentator Rex Murphy will speak at the industry luncheon on Thursday, June 6, also at the Curling Rink.

Events started on Tuesday with the exhibitors golf tournament, and the meet-and-greet steak and lobster supper was held in the evening. An official chain-cutting ceremony was held on Wednesday morning to open the Oil Show, with Mayor Marcel Roy taking part.
