Sergeant-At-Arms Patrick Shaw Says Leaking At Saskatchewan Legislature Disgraceful

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 14 Oct, 2015 12:27 PM
    REGINA — There's a leak at the seat of government in Saskatchewan and the sergeant-at-arms wants it to stop.
     
    Patrick Shaw, who is also head of security at the Saskatchewan legislature, says party bus companies have been allowing people to pee on the building late at night.
     
    Shaw says the first time it was caught on camera was about four years ago and he was shocked.
     
    But the leaking has continued and Shaw says the bus company owners don't seem to care, despite repeated requests to stop.
     
    The sergeant-at-arms says it's disgraceful.
     
    He says the city police have been called, but there is no law against public urination in Regina.
