Rob Carney - Of course, we know our taxes are going up. Property taxpayers will be paying more in 2025. As a follow-up, let's talk about the landfill. We still don't know where the new one is going to be. But we do have changes at the current landfill, and recycling operations are going to be impacted. The landfill is full. 

Rob Carney - Let's talk about the City of Moose Jaw Strategic Plan and its development. 

Maryse Carmichael – So, we have a really different opportunity this year. We have a brand-new council that started in November.  

Rob Carney - One more thing to talk about before I let you go, and that's eBilling. We talked about it on the previous edition of Take 5.  

Tell us how many have signed up, and I suppose you want to encourage others to join. 

Maryse Carmichael - Absolutely. We want to encourage people to join the eBilling.  

Rob Carney - I've been wondering about photo radar in Moose Jaw, City Manager.  

It appears that the camera that was on Grace Street adjacent to Palliser Heights School has been removed, and at last glance the camera on Caribou West and William Grayson School is still there last I went by, but it appeared to be in rough shape.  

Rob Carney - It's an all new edition of Take 5 with Carney and Carmichael featuring Moose Jaw City manager Maurice Carmichael!  

Maurice let's start with the snowfall. We've had lots of it, as a matter of fact, we're running out of places to put the snow here in Moose Jaw, and I'm wondering about the snow removal budget, and I'm sure a number of others are as well.  

Friends, family and the Moose Jaw hockey community are mourning the loss of Barry Webster.

According to his obituary, Webster passed away on Friday.

A founding member of the Moose Jaw Warriors, Webster served as the team's president for multiple terms. He was the first to be inducted into the team's Hall of Fame in the builders category.

Funeral service plans have yet to be made public. People wishing to honour Webster's legacy are asked to donate to The Children's Tumor Foundation in his name.

Sources close to Peavey Mart have said it will be closing all its stores across Canada, including their location in Moose Jaw.

The decision is part of a nationwide shutdown that will see nearly two dozen stores close by the end of February.  There is no specific timeline announced for all stores.

The retailer, which has been known for offering agricultural supplies, hardware, and home improvement products, has stated in a press release, that changing market conditions and declining profits are behind the closures.

It was announced by the Government of Saskatchewan that as of Thursday, January 23, all school divisions in the province are now required to develop, implement, and make publicly available a policy on changeroom usage that, quote "Upholds the privacy, dignity and comfort of all students."

The decision was made following collaboration between the Ministry of Education and school divisions in Saskatchewan to ensure safety and privacy of students remain a top priority.
