Estevan

September is Organic Month, letting people know some of the organic foods available in Canada. That's being spearheaded by the Canadian Organic Trade Association, through their Choose Canada Organic program.

Tia Loftsgard, the Executive Director at the Canada Organic Trade Association, talks about Organic Month and what they hope to share with Canadians.

"Organic Month is the national celebration of all things organic, and we have a series of events that are promoting and educating consumers and everybody about what organic is and the benefits of organic."

Estevan men now have a new place to connect, share, and find support through a peer-led program offered by Envision Counselling and Support Centre Inc.

The Men’s Support Group, beginning October 14, 2025, is designed to provide a safe, judgment-free space for men to discuss life’s challenges. The seven-week program meets Tuesdays from 6 to 8 p.m., with the exact location to be confirmed. The program is free, but pre-registration is required.

A group representing Canada's obstetricians and gynecologists says it has reviewed evidence on Tylenol use during pregnancy and maintains that the painkiller is safe. 

The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada said on Monday that it has revisited its position in light of reports questioning whether there is a link between mothers taking acetaminophen while pregnant and autism in children. 

Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne says the government will table the federal budget on Nov. 4.

The long-awaited spending plan will be the federal Liberals' first under Prime Minister Mark Carney and comes as Ottawa's budget watchdog says he's worried about a lack of fiscal prudence.

It also will be Champagne's first budget as finance minister. He announced the date during question period Tuesday.

He said the plan will offer a "generational investment" in Canada's future.

The southeast was forecast to have a bit of dry weather this week, but now Environment and Climate Change Canada's predictions have changed to dump more moisture across the southeast.

The area is just recovering after a massive rain over the weekend, which dumped more than the monthly average in under 48 hours, and with the recent forecast, it's likely to continue dropping over the area.

Meteorologist Crawford Luke takes a look at the storms we've got on the horizon.

The family of the woman killed in a shooting on Highway 39 last week is pleading for the person responsible to come forward, saying the loss has left a giant gaping hole in their lives. 

The emotional appeal was released Tuesday by the RCMP on behalf of the family of Tanya Myers, who was identified as the 44-year-old victim who tragically died on September 12. The statement came during a media briefing where investigators also lauded what they called the public's fantastic response to calls for information.

Sarcan Estevan has been thriving since opening its new depot on Bourquin Road at the end of June. Manager Connie Hagel said the move has made a huge difference for staff and customers alike. “It is bigger, it is brighter, it is just more room for us. Our employees are loving it, and I am loving it. It is fantastic.”

Environment and Climate Change Canada was tracking a system yesterday that had the possibility of sending tornadoes into Southeastern Saskatchewan and Southwestern Manitoba. That system is an offshoot of a larger area around North Dakota, which has resulted in a recent tornado outbreak in the area.

Meteorologist Crawford Luke says that we managed to miss the worst of what that storm could have brought.

Hillcrest School students, staff, and families came together on Friday to honour the legacy of Terry Fox with their annual walk.

Principal Shannon Brown said the event was led by Constable Don DeChief and organized by their new first-year teacher, Ms. Henry. “We had about 127 participants, plus numerous families came and joined us,” she explained.

While most walked, some students added extra energy to the event. “There are always a few that like to run ahead, yes,” Brown said with a laugh.

The Estevan area received a deluge over the weekend as moisture fell beginning Friday evening and was ever-present over the next few days. The system came with rainfall warnings that covered multiple areas, eventually depositing high amounts of rain overhead.

Christy Climenhaga, a scientist with Environment and Climate Change Canada, details the start of that storm, with the intense rainfall that came in.
