The YWCAs in Saskatoon and Prince Albert will receive about $1.4 million from the provincial government for providing shelters to victims of interpersonal violence and abuse. This is part of a three-year funding agreement. In Prince Albert, the money will support, “Our House,” which provides short-term accommodation for women; as well as, “Central Avenue Residential Services,” which provides shelter and support for women and their children. In Saskatoon the money will help support the YWCA, “Crisis Shelter,” which offers shelter to women and their children who are experiencing homelessness for any number of reasons.

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.
The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.
T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
