For immediate release August 3 rd , 2026 MP Kram Stands With WestJet Workers   Michael Kram, Member of Parliament for Regina-Wascana, today expressed his support for WestJet flight attendants in their job action against the airline.“Conservatives stand with flight attendants and their right for a fair deal and good wages. Conservatives know that flight attendants play a vital role in our transportation system and deserve compensation that reflects the full scope of their responsibilities,” Kram said.

  CBC News, May 14, 2026 Most seven-year-olds have big ideas about what they want to be when they grow up.  Perhaps a doctor, an astronaut or a professional athlete.

  Electric Bus Scandal Widens, Kram Finds Michael Kram, MP for Regina-Wascana has discovered that the federal government made no effort to track whether electric buses were in any way contributing to a reduction of emissions nor to track whether the buses functioned properly in winter. Problems with the City of Regina’s fleet of electric buses came to light last December when Amalgamated Transit Union Local 588 Regina president Sukhwinder Gainda publicly stated that the buses cannot function longer than three hours in cold weather. City Councillor Clark Bezo attempted to make a motion to have the contract for further buses cancelled, but his motion was ruled out of order. The City has taken delivery of seven of its projected 20 electric buses. The purchase is jointly funded by the federal and municipal government, which each contributed $26,106,500 toward the 20 buses and the infrastructure for their charging stations for a total investment of over $52.2 million.
