Western Bearing will be hosting its annual Spring Open House this Thursday April 25th, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. In the week leading up to the event, owner Doug Borland took some time to reflect on the company’s history in the area.

Saskatchewan’s economy and population are growing rapidly and with that growth comes a need for new, expanded and renewed infrastructure. The 2024-25 provincial budget invests a record $4.4 billion in capital projects to support classrooms, care and communities.

He was crazy, naked, homeless, and demon-possessed. He lived in a cemetery and could not be restrained or controlled by chains or by force.

When Jesus and his followers arrived in Gerasenes, across the Lake of Galilee, he rushed toward Jesus, screaming at him and begging him to leave.

As many people struggle to find a family doctor, they may also be forced to find a new dentist.

The Government of Canada’s announcement that millions of people in Canada will soon have access to oral healthcare through the Canadian Dental Care Plan  (CDCP) came as welcome news to many.

It's playoff time in the NHL and if there is a hockey fan in your life, they may be a little tied up for the next couple of months. Millions of people in Canada tune in each night and this year, four Canadian teams have a legitimate shot to win. It was 1993 when Montreal last hoisted the cup and a Canadian team has not won the big trophy since.

Every business begins with an entrepreneur identifying a need in their community, and in the case of Travis Froese owner of Total Mechanical & Plumbing in Winkler, it was relationship building which was the seed which grew into the HVAC and plumbing business located at 510 Norland Drive.

Summer in the City is the premiere festival celebrating everything that makes Southeastern Manitoba great, and this year promises to be even better than the last.  

As Executive Director of the Steinbach Arts Council, David Klassen coordinates stage and production at Summer in the City. He says they always make sure the quality of the festival’s headliners is high. 

On the very edge of the Sandilands Provincial Forest, a mere twenty-minute drive from Steinbach, there’s a very special place where you can dig your toes in the sand, cool off in the water… even enjoy a lunch on a floating picnic table! 

“Our floating picnic tables are very popular,” laughs Hilary Holmes. As one of the owners of The Twisted Root RV Park, she’s almost surprised at their success.  

It all began back in 2014, when she and her husband Brad purchased the property next to their Marchand home.

Strong and growing communities are the foundation of a strong and growing province. That’s why Saskatchewan’s 2024-25 Provincial Budget invests in our province’s strong and growing communities - so that Saskatchewan can continue to grow and remain the best place to live, work and raise a family.

When a business grows to more than 10 times its original size in less than 20 years, it’s clearly doing something right.

“My dad and I started out in 2007,” recalls Patrick Wilson, co-owner and manager of Taxi4U. “We successfully went 24/7 from the beginning – as much of a stretch as that was at the time – and we’ve just kind of grown steadily ever since.”

From the pair of vehicles the start-up cab company operated those 17 years ago, Taxi4U has expanded to a fleet of more than 20. And Wilson is under no illusions as to how that success has come about.
