So sorry to hear about the passing of Derek Meyers, got to know him when he was a Sports reporter with Global Regina and we covered the Canadian Open together, such a wonderful guy.
Today is a difficult day as we mourn the loss of our friend and colleague Derek Meyers, MLA for Regina Walsh Acres.
Derek passed away at the age of 45 after a battle with cancer.
Through all of the challenges he faced, Derek remained one of the most upbeat and positive people I have ever met. Since his election in 2020, Derek has been a strong voice for his constituency and the city of Regina, a tireless advocate on behalf of everyone facing mental health challenges and a vital part of our government caucus.
I am blessed to have known Derek for the short time that I did. We have lost a bright, talented, personable MLA and a young father far too soon.
On behalf of our government and our province, I want to express my deepest sympathies to Derek’s many friends, his partner Laurie, and his children Dayn, Sebastian and Eisley.
Flags at the Legislative Assembly will be lowered to half-mast in honour of Derek Meyers.

Waited in this line this morning but was worth the wait, my daughter got her second dose.
Here’s the lineup to get a 2nd dose shot at the Warden Hilltop Community Centre.
First person in line was here at 1:30 am — and there is no end to line, it just turns into a massive hoard of people. #onpoli #CovidOntario
