The following Christmas greeting was provided by Sask NDP leader Carla Beck

I want to wish you and your family a merry Christmas and a happy new year from everyone here at the Saskatchewan NDP Caucus.

No matter how you celebrate this holiday season, I hope you get to spend time with your loved ones and close friends as 2024 comes to an end. 

Like many of you, this is my favourite time of the year.

What makes it special to me are the traditions we build and look forward to every year.

For our family, we’ll be heading back home to Lang. 

The following was the Christmas greeting provided by Premier Scott Moe. 

Faith... Hope... Love!

In a world that seems ever more chaotic, these are the things that we should seek... first in ourselves... and in others.

Faith in the people around us... faith that the people we encounter are fundamentally good. 

I know we are all so very busy this holiday season...

But let us all take a minute... and pause to see the good in those that we meet.

The following Christmas greeting was provided by outgoing Lieutenant Governor Russ Mirasty.

Hello! Bonjour! Tansi! Happy Holidays!

This season of celebration and goodwill is also a time for reflection. As the festive season arrives, 2024 is on its way out, and it has been an eventful year.

Saskatoon RCMP is at the scene of a serious collision on Highway #5 west of Meacham.

All lanes are currently closed. Detours will be set up but motorists should expect delays.

Please slow down as you approach the collision area, as first responders report icy road conditions and blowing snow.

Further updates will be provided when possible. For updates on the road closure, visit the Saskatchewan Highway Hotline map at: http://hotline.gov.sk.ca/map.html.

There was plenty of noteworthy events that transpired throughout the month of April in 2024. Here's a look back at the month of April. 

Futuristic Industries recently celebrated an eventful year full of community engagement, fundraising, and new milestones. As they reflect on their busy 2024, the organization expressed gratitude for the ongoing support from the Humboldt community. 

The year kicked off with a celebration of Futuristic Industries' 50th anniversary, an occasion that set the tone for a series of successful events. Ray Whitton, director of Futuristic Industries, highlighted the support they received from local residents, which helped fuel a series of charitable initiatives.  

Partners Family Services launches new program focusing on suicide loss

The Saskatchewan Health Authority pleaded guilty to one violation of the province’s Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. The charge stems from an incident in Kelvington when a worker was seriously injured in a fall from a stepladder.  

The plea came in Rose Valley Provincial Court on December 11, 2024.  

2024 will go down as an important year for the St. Mary’s Villa Foundation as the work continues to bring a new long-term care facility to Humboldt. 

Humboldt is becoming widely known for its active and vibrant arts scene, and a good part of that reputation is owing to the efforts of the staff and volunteers with the city’s Cultural Services Department. 

Director Jennifer Fitzpatrick has sent along the following overview of the department's activities in 2024 with an invitation to watch for much more coming in 2025.
