Premier Scott Moe said Tuesday that Stewart died after a battle with cancer
“Lyle was a man of few words, which is unusual for a politician, but you always knew where he stood,” Moe said on social media.
Stewart was first elected in 1999 and represented the ridings of Thunder Creek and Lumsden-Morse, a rural constituency covering an area stretching from Swift Current to Regina. Stewart was stripped of his legislative secretary duties after inviting notorious killer Colin Thatcher to the throne speech in 2022. He later called the decision to invite Thatcher “an error in judgment.”
Thatcher’s ex-wife, JoAnn Wilson, was found beaten and shot to death in the garage of her Regina home in 1983.
