REGINA—Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says the federal election results confirm there’s a fire of frustration burning in Western Canada and it’s time for a “new deal” with Ottawa.

Moe is renewing his calls for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to cancel the federal carbon tax, to rework the equalization formula, and to get oil pipelines built to open up international markets.
