Mayor Chad Bachynski delivered his first State of the City address in Regina, Saskatchewan, on February 13, 2025, to outline his vision for the community. The event was held at the Conexus Arts Centre and marked the 57th year for this annual gathering.
During the presentation, the mayor highlighted the city as an affordable and attractive place for people to live. He specifically pointed to the community as a positive alternative for those looking to leave larger, more expensive cities like Toronto or Vancouver.
The Kiwanis Club of Regina-Wascana hosted the event, which is a long-standing tradition in the city. The address gave the mayor a platform to speak about local priorities, including city services and plans for future growth.
The mayor shared an optimistic outlook for the region and emphasized that the city is becoming stronger. He noted that the municipal government is focused on making the area a desirable location for both current residents and newcomers.
