The pride of Bruderheim can add another World Championship to her list of growing achievements. 

Emerance Maschmeyer, who played goal for Team Canada's national women's team, became a world champion after the Canadians defeated the Americans in the finals last Sunday (Sept. 4).

Maschmeyer might not have been in the net for the final game, but she did play in two games throughout the tournament. The first was a dominant 9-0 shut-out win over Japan, while the other was a hard-fought 5-2 loss against the USA in round-robin play. 

A former Mountie says the vast open spaces of the Prairies could complicate the manhunt for one of the suspects in Sunday's deadly stabbing rampage in Saskatchewan.

"This is a huge area, and there's a whole lot of nothing," said retired RCMP officer Sherry Benson-Podolchuk. "There's a lot of places people can hide."

Her comments come as police continue to search for 30-year-old Myles Sanderson. Police say he may be injured, is considered dangerous and should not be approached.

A fugitive wanted in a deadly stabbing rampage in Saskatchewan has a nearly two-decade-long criminal record and a propensity for violence when intoxicated, a parole board document says.

The Parole Board of Canada document from February says Myles Sanderson told the board that regular use of drugs and hard alcohol would make him "lose (his) mind" and get angry.

“Your criminal history is very concerning, including the use of violence and weapons-related to your index offences, and your history of domestic violence,” said the document obtained by The Canadian Press.

Many of the vegetables we grow in our gardens produce seeds, which, if harvested and stored correctly, have the potential to grace us with free plants. And late summer is the perfect time to start collecting them.

A few notes: Make sure the plants from which you’re collecting seeds are heirloom, or open-pollinated, varieties. These are plants in their original forms whose seeds will produce plants with the same qualities as their parent.

Police say one of two suspects in Sunday's deadly stabbing rampage in Saskatchewan is still at large.

They say 30-year-old Myles Sanderson may be injured, adding he is considered dangerous and should not be approached.

The body of the other suspect in the attacks, 31-year-old Damian Sanderson, was discovered outdoors in a grassy area on the James Smith Cree Nation on Monday, not far from one of the crime scenes.

With school getting underway, the Fort Saskatchewan Food Bank is in need of some items.

The three busiest times of the year for the food bank are Christmas, a new year, and the start of school.

Kassandra Gartner, executive director for the food bank, says items that the food bank needs the most are healthy cereal, jam, rice, pasta, crackers and cookies.

"We serve a lot of families. 44 per cent of who we serve are youth, so we're always looking for school snacks. The nut-free granola bars, the fruit cups, the pudding cups," Gartner said.

Repairs on the Highway 15 pedestrian bridge in Fort Saskatchewan will start on Tuesday (Sept. 6). 

The bridge has been closed since a vehicle carrying a large load hit the structure on July 21, causing damage.

The City of Fort Saskatchewan says only one lane will be open heading northbound while construction takes place. 

Weather permitting, the bridge will reopen in four to six weeks.

During the school year, Rudolph Hennig Junior High School students use the walkway as a main route to and from the school.

Gibbons' local hockey team, the Pioneers, have a new jersey, a rebranded arena, and a new coach.

After a rough start with the expansion last year, Paralympian and ice sledge hockey player Steve Arsenault was hired as the new head coach of the Pioneers.

"What we wanted to do was to make sure that we started building the right foundation for a program that's going to withstand time and duration," Arsenault said.

RCMP say Damien Sanderson, one of two suspects in a deadly stabbing rampage in Saskatchewan, has been found dead.

The body of the 31-year-old was discovered outdoors in a grassy area on the James Smith Cree Nation.

Police say he had visible injuries that were not self-inflicted.

His brother, 30-year-old Myles Sanderson, is the second suspect wanted in the stabbings.

Police say he is still at large, may be injured and could be in Regina.

Investigators continued their "relentless" manhunt Monday for two suspects accused in a series of stabbings that left 10 people dead and at least 15 others injured in rural Saskatchewan a day earlier.

The men were still on the lam 24 hours after officials first issued an emergency alert warning residents of the rampage on the James Smith Cree Nation and the nearby village of Weldon, Regina Police Chief Evan Bray said in a video posted to Twitter early Monday morning.
