SIGA to Open a New Head office on Canada’s First Urban Reserve

Sep 27, 2018 | 1:39 PM

Canada’s first commercial urban reserve is celebrating 30 years in Saskatoon.
The Muskeg Lake Cree Nation and its partnering businesses came out to mark the occasion with a ground breaking ceremony Thursday for a new 50,630 square feet building that will become the new home of SIGA’s head offices.
The Muskeg Lake Cree Nation urban reserve will officially celebrate 30 years on Tuesday and the urban reserve is a collaboration with its business partners and the City of Saskatoon.
The reserve located east of the Sutherland neigbourhood is home to the FSIN’s headquarters, a gas station and other businesses including doctor’s offices.
The new development will also provide over 6200 square feet for SIGA’s new Slot Management program.
Construction of the two-story building is underway and completion of the facility is expected for late 2019.

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.”
