The Saskatchewan Teachers Federation has an eye on the future. It plans to take the lead in a wide-ranging and comprehensive consultation process to map out what education will look like in Saskatchewan. President Patrick Maze says it will involve all stakeholders with the goal of providing the best possible education to an increasing number of students in today’s economic climate of balanced government budgets. Maze says this vision should be based on the needs and desires of students and parents. The Federation wants to have it in place when the current Education Sector Strategic Plan expires in 2020.

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.”
