Business & Financial Interests
Before being elected to Parliament in 2015, Kevin Waugh had a long career as a sports journalist and broadcaster. He was a well-known sports anchor for CTV Saskatoon for almost 40 years. He also reportedly served as a trustee for the Saskatoon Public School Board.
Public Controversies
In late 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Waugh reportedly travelled to California despite government advisories against non-essential international travel. After the trip became public, he resigned from his position as a member of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs. Waugh has also faced criticism for comments made in the House of Commons. In one instance, while discussing inflation, his example of a constituent buying an expensive steak was viewed by some as out of touch with the financial struggles of many Canadians. He was also criticized for using his parliamentary mailing privileges to send a flyer about the carbon tax that some recipients considered to be partisan misinformation.
