Canada Post customers may face delays as tens of thousands of workers swear off overtime shifts, though a much bigger disruption was averted after the union backed down from a strike threat.

Nonetheless, the possibility of escalating job action could continue to scare off customers who pulled their shipments over the past couple of weeks, draining more business from the cash-strapped organization.

“I’m scared for the future,” said Edmonton mail carrier Dustin Ellis, who recently went on leave to study for a new career in social work.

As spring turns into summer in Saskatchewan, it’s becoming increasingly common for residents to spot young animals alone in nature. But despite their apparent vulnerability, the best thing people can do is keep their distance, according to Conservation Officer Ted Glass. 

“The real short answer is just to leave it alone,” said Glass. “There’s reasons why that animal is there, and very likely mum has put that animal there and told her kid to stay there. Don’t move. And they’ll be back.” 

Top officials at the Canada Revenue Agency say mounting job cuts will impact how the agency is able to deliver services.

Commissioner Bob Hamilton and deputy commissioner Jean-François Fortin said in a message to staff Thursday that up to 280 employees will lose their jobs at the agency.

The agency has been examining its operating budget for more than two years to meet a demand from the government to find savings. 

Crop would be eligible for biofuel tax credit under recent budget proposals in Congress

U.S. President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” could contain some beautiful news for Canada’s canola growers.

The U.S. House of Representatives’ ways and means committee has released its draft proposals for the U.S. budget reconciliation bill.

The proposals include provisions to amend the controversial 45Z clean fuel production tax credit so that canola oil-based biodiesel and renewable diesel would be eligible for the credit.

Two Saskatchewan RCMP police vehicles were damaged this week after being struck by a pair of impaired drivers in two separate incidents.  

Fortunately, no one was injured.  

With their two-week residency in Saskatoon now completed, the Saskatchewan Roughriders will hit the road for the first time in 2025, travelling to Winnipeg for a preseason matchup against the Blue Bombers on Saturday afternoon. 

On Friday, Saskatchewan released their depth chart for tomorrow’s game.  

The Roughriders depth is already being tested before the green and white begin facing an opponent.  

Construction is underway at the University of Saskatchewan that will see critical facility improvements within the College of Agriculture and Bioresources.

Two new facilities are being built - the Harrington Plant Growth Facility and the Soil Science Field Facility - while a portion of the Crop Science Field Lab is being renovated to provide additional workspace for the Crop Development Centre. 

Name That Tune was a fun one this morning.

The Hauser Family farms just outside of Pilger, and that was the setting for our second spring season Meal in the Field. The clouds parted after a few days of rain (or at least the threat of it), so that the Hauser family could take a break from the field and enjoy a supper, expertly prepared by the BV, with the Bolt FM crew.
