Humboldt

Starting on Tuesday (May 20) you may notice a bus that will be taking residency inside of the parking lot in at Canalta Hotel in Humboldt.  

It’s Mammography Bus run by the Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency.

If women are having breast symptoms, they should be meeting with their healthcare provider. 

The Victoria Day long weekend usually signals the beginning of summer with many people hitting the lake for the first time for the year or planting their garden. But after a warm start to the month of May, the cooler temperatures will continue over the next few days.  

Stephen Berg, Meteorologist with Environment and Climate Change Canada says it temperatures could dip down below 0 on both Friday and Saturday.   

Along with the beginning of summer, the May long weekend is the starting point for construction season on Saskatchewan highways.  

"Road and utility workers, first responders, tow truck operators and many other are all working for you on and near our highways, streets and roads," Highways Minister David Marit said. "We ask all motorists to slow down, follow the signs and respect flag persons no matter where their summer travels take them. We want everyone to get home safely."

When a church in Toronto's west end was converted into affordable housing nearly 15 years ago, the group behind the project was already thinking ahead. 

Andrea Adams, the executive director of the non-profit developer St. Clare's, said she was "daydreaming" about what could be built on the yard next to the 20-unit building on Ossington Avenue. 

She was eventually introduced to Assembly Corp., a company that builds mass timber modular housing, around the same time that the city was looking for proposals for "shovel ready" affordable housing projects. 

Some outdoorsy Canadians are planning to build their tents with elbows up this summer as the season unofficially kicks off this long weekend.

Sally Turner says she and her husband plan to do their camping, canoeing and biking this year in Canadian national parks, including at Jasper National Park this weekend, because of the U.S. trade war and U.S. President Donald Trump's calls to make Canada a 51st state.

"I have, in the past, camped in the United States, but that's not going to happen in the near future," Turner said while shopping for camping gear in Edmonton.

The first Meal in the Field delivery brought us to the heart of a true prairie legacy—the Edwards family farm.

Located just north of Nokomis, the Edwards Farm Company is approximately a 5,000-acre grain operation with an 80-head cow-calf herd, proudly run by five generations of dedicated farmers.

This century farm is more than just a piece of land; it’s a living story of family.

Tina and Jeff Edwards were the deserving winners of this week’s meal delivery, with their sons Hudson, Owen, and Mason helping carry on the farming tradition.

To get thunderstorms on a hot day, you need to have cool air aloft.
