Saskatchewan is demanding answers from federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault after receiving multiple reports from farmers that federal employees are “trespassing” on their lands to test water sources.

Premier Scott Moe took to Twitter on Aug. 21 demanding Guilbeault provide an explanation as to “why his department is trespassing on private land without the owners’ permission to take water samples from dugouts.”
