Full statement here: https://www.sgeu.org/news/sgeu-news/sgeu-sounds-alarm-on-leadership-crisis-at-saskatchewan-polytechnic
Top 3 executives made $1.3 million / year for the past few years while hundreds of employees lost their jobs. How is this still happening?

Avalon dog park attack
I just want to highlight an incident that happened today at 2:00pm at Avalon dog park. My shepherd mix was attacked by what looked like a collie/shepherd mix medium size, white/grey colouring. I overheard the other dogs name as ‘Arizona’.
I didn’t know the severity at the time, but noticed several tooth puncture marks throughout my dog’s body. No vets are open today, so I will be monitoring closely throughout the evening.
I know nothing will come of this, but I just want to highlight that if your dog has poor recall and is aggressive, they SHOULD NOT be taken to off leash dog parks.
“How Chee” Screening Was Awesome!!
I saw a post here about a month ago promoting the How Chee premiere. Wanting to partake in more community events, I decided to buy tickets on a whim. The screening was everything that makes the community so great!! An old man wanting to help out an immigrant business by helping them produce a commercial, only for the commercial to go “viral” and years later having the town gather to hear both families experience with it while being provided the best coconut buns - peak.
You can tell how much love The Great Buffet of China, the Murphys and the director of the film have so much love for Saskatoon!! Bringing 600 (boxes of) coconut buns should be enough proof that!
Please support local screenings, truly a fun experience!
Pickle lovers!
Where can I buy some homemade pickles around here or pickled carrots? Bonus points if there is spicy pickled items. I love all sorts of pickled vegetables !

Saskatoon Metal Poster Board
Hey I made this Poster board to make local and touring metal shows easy to access and find in Saskatoon. If I am missing any feel free to send them my way.

Ideas Inc is turning over the operation of its building to the City of Saskatoon, effective April 1, 2026.
I am a former tenant of the Ideas Inc building and I noticed that Ideas Inc has released an official statement on their IG account that they are turning over operation of its building (120 Sonnenschein Way) to the City of Saskatoon, effective April 1, 2026.
This means that the City of Saskatoon is now managing the building operations for both Gather Local Market and Ideas Inc.
While it is sad to see this chapter end for Ideas Inc, I wonder what opportunities lie ahead for this building.
I personally know of many successful small businesses in Saskatoon who passed through the Ideas Inc building.
What are your thoughts?

Dr. Goodenowe Restorative Health Center - Liens, Prodrome, Yolbolsum,

Liens and court judgements are attached to the building where the Dr. Goodenowe Restorative Health Centre is located. (Matt Howard/CBC)
That property's title tells the story of conflict that has continued to dog Goodenowe through a series of court judgements, lawsuits and liens against his companies since 2016.
- CRA has a judgement against the property for $36,000 in unpaid taxes.
- A law firm, Bennett Jones LLP, has registered a $260,000 judgement against Yolbolsum for unpaid legal bills.
- Safe Self Storage has two liens against the property for mortgages it says still owed by Yolbolsum — one for $825,000 and another for $241,000. In response to the company's lawsuit filed in court, Goodenowe said he denies "the existence of every debt alleged by the Plaintiff."
- P3 Architecture has a $32,000 lien on the property for what it says is unpaid work performed for Yolbolsum.
- Former in-house PDI lawyers Tamara Harasen and Christine Johnston have a $5,800 judgement against Yolbolsum.
- Former investors, including Craig Bell and GOFI, have a $7,200 judgement against Yolbolsum.
Another of Goodenowe's former lawyers, WMCZ Legal Professional Corporation, has a $60,000 judgement against Yolbolsum.

URGENT: NEED HOME FOR DOG (COOPER)
Hey everyone, My Grandma has a 9 year old Lab perfectly healthy and full of love. His only downfall is he kills cats and small rodents. He has lived on a farm all of his life.
Grandma sold the farm and moved to the city and essentially doesnt want to deal with the dog (Cooper) anymore. The ending result is he's gonna be put down.
I have been searching everywhere for a home for him. new hope dog rescue is full, the spca said no cause he kills cats. I've had people interested but then back out.
Im running out of options and am looking for some guidance as to where else I can be searching.
Thanks in advance
Places to have a fire near the city
I want to have a little fire with some group home kids today. We want to get out of the city. Where can we go where there’s already a fire pit to use? (We will properly clean up after ourselves of course.) Please comment good spots! Thank you in advance

Where can high school students look for summer jobs?
I'm a high school senior that will be graduating in a few months, and I'd like to have a job this summer. I'd be willing to do anything, although my preference would be something IT/engineering related.
Last year to find jobs I sent out applications to various jobs sites, went in person to a few businesses to hand out my resume but I didn't hear back from anyone. So I was wondering if anyone here knows any businesses that are looking to hire summer workers, or maybe any opportunities that I could look out for.
I don't have much work experience. The only tangible thing I've done is worked during the 2025 federal elections as an information officer.
Thanks, have a nice day.
Is there any place in the city that does permanent eyeliner removal?
Just what the title says. I had PMU applied 17-ish yrs ago. They told me it would likely be gone in 10 yrs. It's not; some ink has migrated, and I regret it so much that I don't even have words.
If you know a place, I'd love to hear about it. TIA
