New CT Scanner For St. Paul’s Hospital

By Carol Thomson Jun 29, 2018 | 2:54 PM

An urgently needed CT Scanner is being installed at St. Paul’s Hospital thanks to support from donors.
CEO of the St. Paul’s Hospital foundation, Bruce Acton, says $1.2-million dollars was raised, and it will have a terrific impact on patient care, because the scanner is used by almost every department at the hospital.
The donors include Hospital Home Lottery ticket purchasers, Orme and Shirley Asher, and Give & Grow sponsors Schira Subway, the Saskatchewan Indian Gaming Authority and Furniture World.
The Saskatchewan Health Ministry has agreed to match the donation to bring the scanner, which costs $2.4-million, to St. Paul’s Hospital.

Have Your Say

When you receive your carbon tax rebate by direct deposit have you ever not known where it came from, regardless of how it was identified on your statement?

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.”
