The Ministry of Parks, Culture and Sport has issued a restriction on open fires in Good Spirit and Duck Mountain Provincial Parks because of the dry conditions and the extreme fire hazard.
If you have reserved a spot there, got the “sask parks dot com” for updates on the fire restriction status.
Some tips from the Ministry include respecting any road closures in the parks, carry a fire extinguisher in your vehicle and avoid any unnecessary idling.

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.”
