ReginaNewsSaskPower employee racked up more than $23,000 in non-business-related purchases with company cards: loss report By Drew PosteyPublished: May 05, 2025 at 1:53PM EDT Twitter feed ©2025 BellMedia All Rights Reserved Sign In Register REGINA — As affordability remains an ongoing topic one province has recently made parking at healthcare facilities As of May 1st, Nova Scotia removed any on-site parking fees losing nearly $20 million in annual revenue As it stands, Regina’s General Hospital and Pasqua Hospital require visitors to pay $1 for parking every 30 minutes or a maximum of $12 on a given day the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) introduced parking fees for the emergency department area at both hospitals questions and concerns were raised by the provincial government and the New Democratic Party (NDP) SaskToday reached out to the SHA regarding reducing or removing parking fees The SHA didn't comment if there had been any discussion on the matter they noted parking lots have "operating expenses such as snow removal winter traction such as sand or ice melting products so that staff patients and visitors don’t slip and fall." the SHA prefers to use the fees towards parking infrastructure letting health care dollars go towards "high-quality service." In the 2025 budget, Sask. put $8.004 billion towards healthcare, down from $8.022 billion in 2024. There is also 60-minute free parking at the Regina General Hospital meant to "provide quick and equitable access for patients who urgently need emergency care," said the SHA This drew criticism from NDP health critic Vicki Mowat who said no one should leave the hospital with a parking ticket "When people are at their most stressed and vulnerable they shouldn’t be forced to pull out a credit card in a packed waiting room struggle with a parking kiosk or download a whole new parking app," she said the SHA suspended parking fees to support frontline patients and workers during COVID-19 This change only lasted until July of the same year the Regina Police Service advises residents of Regina that Jared CHARLES an offender considered to be at a high risk of reoffending sexually and/or violently which includes violent sexual offences and kidnapping involving children programming to address risk factors was completed investigators have concluded the programming is not sufficient to adequately address the risk factors that cause Jared CHARLES to reoffend sexually They note that CHARLES has indicated that he is unable or unwilling to abide by conditions and that he is at a high risk to reoffend sexually To mitigate the risk to public safety and contribute to CHARLES’ rehabilitation he is currently subject to a court order with the following conditions: This information is shared to raise awareness about the presence of a high-risk offender in your community so that you may make informed decisions about entering in contact with this person This information is not to be used to carry out unlawful and harmful acts against this person To report an incident involving Jared CHARLES being in violation of his conditions please call the Regina Police Service at 306-777-6500 call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (1-800-222-8477) This public safety advisory is being issued under the authority of More Events REGINA - The Regina Police Service is asking the public for their help in locating a 12-year-old female Twelve-year-old Chaliss Severight-Lavalee was last seen on May 4 at approximately 2 a.m. in the 3000 block of Hill Avenue.  Chaliss Severight-Lavalee is described as: female approximately 5’5” and 132 pounds with a slim build She was last seen wearing black pants and a black hoodie There is no evidence that Chaliss has come to harm police would like to locate them to ensure their safety Anyone with information that could assist police in locating Chaliss Severight-Lavallee is asked to contact the Regina Police Service at 306-777-6500 Anonymous information can be provided to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 #CrimeCopsCourt_SKTODAY ReginaNewsMan deemed high risk of sexual, violent reoffences living in downtown Regina: policeBy Drew PosteyPublished: May 03, 2025 at 2:18PM EDT Join the conversation You can save this article by registering for free here.

Twenty-five people spoke during the meeting while more than 80 people submitted over 900 pages of comments and information for councillors to consider Nearly half of those submissions came from people outside Regina from places like Calgary “The practice of fluoridation is immoral and violates the principles of informed consent,” delegate Janelle Gerard said midway through the meeting Nearly all of the speakers who were against fluoride suggested that scientific conclusions since 2021 have linked its consumption to reduced IQ levels in children and other health risks “It doesn’t matter what medical experts think about fluoride There is overwhelming evidence on both sides,” said Regina resident Malia Carson council heard support from the Canadian Fluoridation Society the Saskatchewan Health Authority and the College of Dental Surgeons of Saskatchewan including a letter signed by 75 dentists in the province backing fluoride as an effective protection against dental cavities “Fluoridation works quietly in the background,” said Regina pediatrician Susan Petryk Of the four medically trained doctors who spoke Friday three said consensus among the scientific community on studies referenced by delegates and in Bezo’s motion is that there are flaws in the methodology and data A large chunk of time was spent on questions about regulation and how fluoride dosage is controlled due to concerns expressed by delegates as well as Bezo and Rashovich “If I wanted to kill myself by drinking fluoridated water one of 10 councillors who signed the original motion to approve fluoridation in 2021 “The water would,” answered James Dickinson a family doctor and professor of family medicine and community health sciences at the University of Calgary “You’d have to drink a swimming pool of water to reach a toxicity level for fluoride.” added later that drinking water standards are regulated in Saskatchewan by the provincial Water Security Agency Radons said the decision in 2021 “dismissed” the public’s input by not doing any consultation What I’m disputing is the process of how we got to this day,” she said Regina has held four referendums on adding fluoride since 1954 all of which received majority votes against A recent poll from Spadina Strategies in Saskatoon surveyed a cross section of 458 Regina residents by phone on April 20 and 21 It found that 52 per cent of respondents were in favour of fluoride in Regina’s water and 31 per cent were against The poll’s margin of error is plus or minus 5.20 percentage points transmission or republication strictly prohibited This website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.

Senior Men’s Curling champions Bryden and his Team Canada foursome of third Troy Robinson lead Chris Semenchuck and alternate Glen Hill capped an undefeated week with a 10-7 win over Scotland’s Tom Brewster in the gold medal game on Saturday morning The title game proved to be anything but easy as the teams exchanged big ends from start to finish Brewster -- who came into the contest with five appearances at the men’s world championship and the silver medal in the 2014 Olympics under his belt -- got off to a great start That wasn’t unusual for Bryden though as teams had picked up points on Canada without the hammer in the opening frame on a few occasions during the week and he’d respond quickly with three of his own in the second to tie things up Scotland followed with a pair in the third after which Bryden took his first lead of the game with another three ender in the fourth for a 6-5 edge Brewster then blanked the fifth and took a pair in the sixth to go up by one with two ends to go That set the stage for the pivotal seventh end where Canada would score three for a 9-7 lead and control of the contest coming home Brewster would be unable to pull off a raise takeout on a Bryden counter in the four foot on his final shot in the eighth end It was an outstanding week from start to finish for Bryden and crew in Fredericton as after going to an extra end to defeat Belgium in their first game they dominated the rest of the round robin and would finish with a 6-0 record Thanks to that placing and their solid showing in the Draw Shot Challenge throughout the week Canada advanced straight to the quarter-finals where they took a 6-5 win over Germany’s Andy Kapp where things were slightly more comfortable in a 6-3 win over Finland’s Tomi Rantamaki The United States’

Scotland’s Jackie Lockhart Ireland’s Dale Sinclair defeated Japan’s Miyako Yoshimura 6-4 to win the senior women’s bronze medal city council has decided to proceed with a previous motion to add fluoride to Regina’s water A large portion of city council based their decision on advice given by local health experts "[I relied] on the professionals and the experts [for my vote]," said Mayor Chad Bachynski A health official with the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) noted that previous data collected from Grade 1 to Grade 7 students showed better oral health in communities with fluoride in
