The Saskatchewan government announced on Monday that SCN will be sold to Bluepoint Investment Corporation, an Ontario-based company.

According to SCN Matters spokesperson Robin Schlaht, “Basically the feeling at SCN Matters is that these are the cards the government has dealt via their short-sighted decision to end support for SCN and their flawed, forced privatization process, but as always we at SCN Matters will be working toward the best possible outcome for Saskatchewan viewers and the Saskatchewan television production community. As such, although we don’t know many specifics of the Blue Point plan, we would intend to work collaboratively with Blue Point to achieve a sustainable provincial educational broadcaster which addresses the needs of Saskatchewan viewers and producers.”
