The president of SARM welcomes a provincial review of trespass laws, saying it is something they have been advocating for.
There is a questionnaire on the government’s website looking for input on trespass regulations, asking if all public access to rural property should require advance permission from the landowner.
Ray Orb says the laws need to be stricter because of rising rural crime.
He hopes the province gets the message that rural landowners need changes so they can protect their own property.
Orb says some accommodation may need to be made to trespass regulations for those seeking help in rural Saskatchewan. The ministry of Justice is asking for a response to its questionnaire by the first of October.

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.”
