The USask Huskies men’s volleyball team has been in rebuilding mode for a number of years, and those efforts have paid off, thanks in part to recruitment of strong candidates like Humboldt’s own Jay Eichorst. This year, Eichorst contributed to the strongest finish for the Huskies in USport volleyball in years. The club took the bronze medal at USport nationals, hosted by Brandon University last weekend. 

Name That Tune was a more current music scene.

Marvin was the first to text in and he risked it but unfortunately only knew the artist's name not the correct title.

The Humboldt and District Chamber of Commerce Mark of Excellence Awards are back, this year celebrating 25 years of excellence.

The Water Security Agency is warning residents about thin ice conditions in the province.  

Spring runoff will start to materialize with warmer temperatures, and the WSA is cautioning everyone to be safe around Saskatchewan rivers, lakes and other bodies of water.  

Ice does not melt at a uniform pace and its strength can vary from one area to the next.  

With warm weather hopefully around the corner, many outdoor activities will soon commence. It will also mark the beginning of digging season. 

The Saskatchewan Common Ground Alliance (SCGA) will be hosting free breakfasts for construction workers and those involved in digging projects within the community to help raise awareness about the potential dangers that exist when digging into underground utilities.

For the second day in a row, Liberal Leader Mark Carney has been pulled away from campaigning to discuss U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs. 

Carney, in his role as prime minister, will meet virtually with Canada's premiers today to discuss the country's response to Trump's latest duties.

The president signed an executive order earlier this week to implement 25 per cent levies on all automobile and auto part imports — his latest move to upend global trade through a massive tariff agenda that pushed some automakers' stock prices down on Thursday.

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says the province is reducing the industrial carbon levy to zero. 

He says the move makes Saskatchewan the first "fully carbon tax free" province, saving ratepayers money on their electricity bills. 

Moe says the measure will also make businesses more competitive amid tariff threats from U.S. President Donald Trump. 

He adds he hopes the next federal government does not impose a backstop to collect levies from Saskatchewan.
