They are among six new cameras, bringing the total number of static cameras deployed across the province to 50, according to a release from the Ministry of Highways.
The perfect pairing – St. Gregor Poker Rally and Lake Lenore Smoker
Even in the bitter cold, a pair of long-standing community events always adds a bit of warmth in the relative dim of the post-holiday season. The Lake Lenore Smoker and the St. Gregor Poker Rally gather crowds who zip up and down the 368 for a bowl of hot soup and a smokie at the Rally, and the wonderfully seasoned smoked fish right out of the lake.
Broncos treat crowd to first home ice win of the year, downing Terriers 5-1
A snow dust up didn't slow down the Humboldt Broncos on Tuesday night as they took care of the Yorkton Terriers at the EPA by a score of 5 - 1.
Connor Miller opened the scoring halfway in the first with an assist from Ben Constantino.
It wasn't until late in the second when the Broncos struck again, the first off a Cage Newans marker with help from Daylan Wiegel. Then Weigel and Spencer Bell got the assists on a Matthew Van Blaricom power play effort.
