Investments in Moose Jaw Contribute to Local Economy

Megan Patterson: — Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I want to start by thanking the Peepeekisis Cree Nation Chief Dieter for this beautiful beaded medallion. In March 2025 the Moose Jaw Events Centre was renamed the Temple Gardens Centre following a naming rights agreement between the city of Moose Jaw and Peepeekisis Developments Ltd., the economic arm of Peepeekisis Cree Nation. They also own Moose Jaw’s Temple Gardens spa and hotel.

I would like to thank them for making these investments in Moose Jaw and for their contribution to our local economy. The Temple Gardens Centre is home to the Moose Jaw Warriors and also has an eight-sheet curling rink plus meeting and banquet facilities.

From March 29th to April 6th, Moose Jaw is hosting the BKT World Men’s Curling Championship. So far Brad Jacobs and his Canadian curling team are undefeated.

[Applause]

Megan Patterson: — Yay, clapping. Come to Moose Jaw this week to see some world-class curling. Go underground with all three tours at the Tunnels of Moose Jaw, and shop in Moose Jaw’s most notoriously charming and friendly downtown. You’ll love your stay so much that you’ll want to come back this summer for trolley rides and a stay at the Temple Gardens Hotel. Hope to see you there.
