A cleaner, greener Moose Jaw: one Helping Hand at a time

If you’ve noticed that downtown Moose Jaw is looking a little cleaner — and even a little greener — this summer, it’s thanks in part to a 12-week initiative that’s proving to be about more than just keeping things tidy. 

The Helping Hands program, launched at the end of May by the Downtown Moose Jaw Association, brings volunteers together several times a week to help put the city’s best face forward. 

The most well-known source of lead poisoning in cattle is automotive batteries.

Lead poisoning impacts cattle in Saskatchewan every year, potentially killing multiple animals in a herd.

Researchers say pediatricians, family doctors and parents need to learn more about what kind of performance-enhancing substances kids are using when they work out or play sports.

Seventeen per cent of more than 800 Canadian pediatric specialists surveyed say they saw adolescents who needed medical attention due to dietary supplements or performance drugs over the previous year.

The majority of cases were boys and more than half of them were between 13 and 15 years old.

Almost a third of the patients were even younger — between 10 and 12 years old.

Canadian Red Cross helps rebuild Ukrainian children's hospital after rocket attack

Workers dangle from ropes as they brush the last bit of white paint on the trim of the Okhmatdyt children’s cardiac hospital in Kyiv.

Below them, a damaged children's stroller and construction supplies sit atop a tree-covered garbage heap. Windows of some surrounding buildings are still boarded up with plywood.

One year after a devastating rocket attack on Ukraine's largest children's hospital that killed four and injured a dozen, the century-old facility is getting ready to reopen — with help from the Canadian Red Cross.
