Two 14 year old boys were in Saskatoon court this morning facing a boatload of charges including Careless Use of a Firearm, Careless Storage of a Loaded Firearm, Carrying a Concealed Weapon, and Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking Marijuana and Xanax.

Police were called at 2:20 yesterday (weds) afternoon to an apartment building in the 100 block of Avenue O South and when they got there officers say they came across two boys carrying backpacks while one had what appeared to be a bag of marijuana sticking out of a hoodie pocket.

Police seized a loaded sawed off shotgun, ammunition, a total of 983 grams of marijuana, cannabis resin and oil, Xanax tablets, a scale, a cell phone and $380 in cash. In addition, police say there was marijuana packaged individually consistent with drug trafficking.

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.”
