Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says a comment made by one of his MLAs referring to federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh as a “terrorist” was “very inappropriate.”

Saskatchewan Party MLA Racquel Hilbert made the remark in the legislature on March 25 as the provincial government introduced the budget. While criticizing the federal government, she alluded to the former supply-and-confidence agreement between the Liberals and the federal NDP.
