The Mom Market is a Canada-wide platform that hosts pop-up markets from coast to coast. Each market is designed to provide an affordable opportunity for local and small businesses — including those that have been around for years — to showcase their products. Admission is free for attendees to come out and shop.

The Mom Market will be held at the Moose Jaw Exhibition Convention Centre this weekend (April 12 and 13) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.

With the snow finally off the ground in most places and temperatures staying warm, it's time to start thinking about switching to your summer tires. According to tire industry recommendations, it's best practice to use winter tires when the average daily temperature is consistently 7°C (44.6°F) or lower, and to switch to summer or all-season tires when temperatures stay above that threshold. While this isn't a hard and fast rule—especially in a province where the weather can’t seem to make up its mind—it’s a good guideline to follow.

It was a laugh I'll never forget and a memory I jogged for four-time Stanley Cup champion Craig MacTavish on the weekend when he was in Moose Jaw for the Kinsmen Club's Sports Celebrity Dinner.

It was about 35 years ago when Mac T was in Moose Jaw with a number of his Edmonton Oiler teammates to play in the Clark Gillies Celebrity Golf Classic.

He and Mark Messier asked me to give them a ride from the golf club to a downtown restaurant. Of course I obliged.
