Welcome Back To A Brand New Season of Muni-Cast

To kick off Season 11, we are going back, way back, back to the beginning of Muni-Cast with our very first guest. A man who needs no introduction, and a man who is well known across Saskatchewan and across Canada.

Today we welcome Mr. George Cuff to the show.

MuniCast is brought to you by SUMA, the voice of Saskatchewan’s urban municipalities.

MuniCast discusses topics that are important to municipal leaders, like local governance, best practices, education, and so much more.

This season, conversations will dive into how municipalities are working on collaboration, how municipalities are working on the well-being of their community, how leadership is viewed, and how we are entering the halfway point of the 2024-2028 term.

Whether you’re looking for practical insights, new perspectives, or opportunities to stay informed and connected, Season 11 of MuniCast will certainly be a resource for you.

We begin Season 11 with a look back to Season 1, Episode 1, and our guest, Mr. George Cuff.

For more than five decades, he has advised municipalities, provincial departments, Crown agencies and other public-sector organizations across Canada.
