By Carol Thomson Aug 10, 2018 | 12:19 PM

The first three days of the Saskatoon Ex have seen an increase in attendance from last year.
From Tuesday through Thursday, 87,423 people went through the gates, which is up slightly from last year with a total of 86,100.
Attendance for Thursday was also up slightly, with a 0.5 per cent increase to 24,443 checking out the rides and witnessing the sights of the Ex.
With the heatwave, Prairieland Park is urging those taking in the Ex to check out the shaded rest areas and cool off in the air conditioned buildings.
Tonight at the Grandstand, Tim Hicks will take the stage.

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.”
