A Unique Winter Walk From Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan

By Carol Thomson Jan 16, 2019 | 10:49 AM

Picture yourself walking along the river by the Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan site one evening, listening to stories in your ear buds along a specially lit path, complete with an art installation.
It’s Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan’s pimohtewak, which is Cree for ‘the ones who walk’.
Spokesperson, Kristi Friday, explains that they received a grant from the City of Saskatoon through its Wintercity YXE project, which promotes winter activities to help residents and visitors enjoy the season more.
Pimohtewak is a unique, free performance with 4 half-hour events each night from January 22nd through 27th, but you have to register online first so you can download the podcast.
Kristi says Joseph Naytowhow’s stories are the personal experiences of he and his friends and family.
Naytowhow is a Cree/Metis residential school survivor.

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.”
