The Saskatoon Fire Department would like to remind residents and visitors of safe practices for purchasing, enjoying and disposing of fireworks. This Canada Day, low-hazard fireworks can only be discharged on private property between the hours of dusk and 11:00 p.m. on Monday, July 1.

Low-hazard fireworks are designed for public recreational use. These fireworks travel less than 50m (160ft) high and include items such as roman candles, sparklers, fountains, wheels, volcanoes, mines and snakes. 

High-hazard fireworks are designed for professionals and can only be purchased by persons holding a valid Fireworks Supervisor – Level I or Level II card issued by Natural Resources Canada. 

Residents and spectators are reminded of the risks and obligations associated with fireworks: 

• Carefully read and follow the manufacturer instructions. 
• Exercise increased caution when handling and discharging any type of firework. 
• Choose your location wisely. Fireworks can only be discharged on private property.  
• Familiarize yourself with the space requirements for the type of firework being discharged. Requirements vary depending on the firework type.  
• Ensure your location is free of overhead obstructions, is clear side-to-side and is a safe distance from combustible materials. 
• Ensure that it is not windy and that all spectators are safely located to observe the display. 
• Be sure to properly stabilize the firework according to manufacturer direction. 
• Other than sparklers, never light or hold a lit firework in your hand. 
• Always light the fuse at its tip. 
• Never try to relight or fix the fuse on fireworks that did not go off. 
• Have a supply of water available and use it to extinguish debris or smouldering embers before they cause injuries, property damage and/or fires.  
• Keep in mind that you are solely responsible for any debris that may land on spectators or another’s property. 

For more information about fireworks safety, please visit saskatoon.ca/fireworks. 

The Saskatoon Fire Department wishes everyone a safe and enjoyable Canada Day!

Saskatoon Transit today unveiled two unique pieces of student artwork for its 5th annual Student Art Contest. These pieces celebrate the vibrance of youth using active transportation and will be displayed on transit buses around Saskatoon. This contest is aimed at students in grades 3 and 7, as public and active transportation is part of the learning plan for those grades.  

"We are thrilled to partner with elementary schools on this project and extend a big thank you to all students who participated in this year's contest," says Cory Shrigley, Customer Support and Engagement Manager of Saskatoon Transit. "This artwork captures the spirit of active transportation and its role in our community. Students this summer should take great pride in seeing art created by their peers displayed on the side of Saskatoon Transit bus."  

The winning pieces were based on their reflection of the "Active Transportation" theme. They highlighted the importance of integrated transportation modes such as public transit, cycling, walking, e-scooters, car sharing, taxis, carpooling, and ride-sharing. 

• Grade 3 Winner: 
  • Ada, Vera, Skylar, Samar and Juliette  
  • École Alvin Buckwold School  
• Grade 7 Winner: 
  • Raowha 
  • Lakeridge School  

“Our school division promotes active transportation and encourages mindful choices that support student well-being and our community,” says Jennifer Haywood, Superintendent of Education at Saskatoon Public Schools. “This contest aligns with our curriculum and Move to Grow campaign, advocating for active ways to commute to school. 

“Congratulations to both schools for their creative artwork that brings these ideas to life in a beautiful visual, hopefully inspiring others to adopt healthier and more sustainable transportation habits.” 

Each winning artwork will be prominently displayed on five Saskatoon Transit buses, totalling ten buses, throughout the city.  

The City of Saskatoon reminds property owners that their 2024 property tax payment is due this Sunday, June 30, and that City Hall is not open on the weekend. 

There are several property tax payment options available for you:

• Internet Banking: Pay your property tax online through your bank’s internet bill payment option. Please allow up to two business days for payment processing; some banks may take longer.

• Pay your property taxes in person at City Hall by cheque, cash or debit up until 5:00 p.m. on Friday, June 28, 2024. 

• Your 2024 property tax payment may be paid at most financial institutions. Please allow up to two business days for payment processing; some banks may take longer.

The City of Saskatoon is looking for a community member to join the Active Transportation Advisory Group (ATAG). This group provides valuable input on policies, programs and initiatives to enhance cycling, walking and other active transportation options in our community. 

ATAG is looking for someone who uses Saskatoon Transit regularly and is passionate about cycling and pedestrian initiatives and infrastructure. 

By creating safe active-transportation networks, we can encourage more residents to choose walking or cycling as their preferred way to get around. ATAG plays a key role in connecting community groups, organizations, residents and the City to support the Active Transportation Plan. 

If you're interested in contributing to these efforts, visit saskatoon.ca/atag or contact atag@saskatoon.ca for more information. The deadline for applications is Wednesday, July 10, 2024. 

June is Electricity Month, and Saskatoon Light & Power is celebrating electrical workers the week of June 24-28. 

Electrical Workers and support staff work tirelessly, day or night to ensure optimal performance of our electrical infrastructure. Rain or shine, they brave the elements to keep Saskatoon homes and businesses powered up and running smoothly.

This is our chance to show appreciation for their hard work and dedication. Here's how you can get involved:

1. Say Thank You: Whether you see them working in your neighborhood or encounter them elsewhere, take a moment to express your gratitude. A simple "thank you" can go a long way in brightening their day.
2. Spread Positivity: Use your social media platforms to share stories of appreciation for electrical workers. Let's flood the internet with messages of thanks and recognition for their vital contributions.
3. Support Safety Measures: Remember, safety is paramount for electrical workers. Help keep them safe by reporting any hazards or concerns you notice in your area.
4. Educate Others: Take this opportunity to educate your friends, family, and neighbors about the importance of electrical safety and the hard work of electrical workers in our community.

Let's make some noise and show Saskatoon’s electrical workers the appreciation they truly deserve! Together, let's light up their day and illuminate the importance of their role in our lives.

Thank you, electrical workers, for keeping the power on.

Saskatoon Light and Power (SL&P) crews are on standby as well. Saskatoon Transit may be impacted during summer storms - service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.

A significant piece of Saskatoon infrastructure that would have required extensive modifications to continue operating has been replaced. Construction on a new Spadina Lift Station and force main, which moves approximately 60 per cent of Saskatoon’s wastewater from the sanitary sewer system to the H. McIvor Weir Waste Water Treatment Plant, has wrapped up and has been in service for about three months. 

“The decision to construct a new lift station instead of modifying the existing one, which was built in the 1940s as a sewage disposal facility and repurposed as a lift station in the 1970s, made the most sense,” said Russ Munro, Director of Saskatoon Water. “The risk in modifying the old structure would have been significant and not feasible, both from an operational perspective and from a capital expenditure perspective.” 

Collaborative funding efforts from both federal and provincial governments highlighted the recognition of the project's importance and its impact on the community's well-being. The Government of Canada provided $7.2 million toward the Spadina Lift Station project under the Green Infrastructure Stream of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program. The Government of Saskatchewan provided close to $6 million. The City of Saskatoon invested $4.8 million to cover the remaining contribution.

“Reliable and sustainable water infrastructure contributes to the basics of a well-run city,” said the Honourable Dan Vandal, Minister of Northern Affairs, PrairiesCan and CanNor, on behalf of the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities. “Today’s completion of the new Spadina Lift Station ensures better wastewater management and well-being for the community into the future.”

“Today, we celebrate the completion of a facility that will have a lasting impact on future generations,” said the Honourable Don McMorris, Minister of Government Relations. “As our cities continue to expand, it is important that critical infrastructure meet both current and future demands. Our government is committed to strengthening our communities through vital projects like this, ensuring a brighter future for all.”

“Saskatoon has experienced tremendous population and neighbourhood growth in recent decades,” said Mayor Charlie Clark. “This upgrade to the Spadina Lift Station is critical for ensuring we have the continued capacity to move the majority of Saskatoon’s wastewater safely and efficiently to the Wastewater Treatment Plant. This will benefit both today’s residents and future generations. Thanks to the Federal and Provincial Governments as funding partners in maintaining and modernizing this important infrastructure for our city.”

A second building on the same site was completed in 2016 and serves as a bypass lift station whenever needed. To learn more about the critical role Saskatoon’s 26 lift stations play in helping get wastewater to the treatment plant, visit saskatoon.ca/liftstations.

The City of Saskatoon is celebrating the completion of the McOrmond Drive Reservoir and Pump Station. This milestone marks a significant achievement in ensuring a reliable supply of clean water to residents and businesses in the northeast part of the city. The facility has been in operation since March.

“As Saskatoon continues to grow, the McOrmond Drive Reservoir and Pump Station is an important addition to our water management system,” said Russ Munro, Director of Saskatoon Water. “With a capacity to store 43 million litres of treated water from the Water Treatment Plant, the reservoir ensures consistent water availability for Evergreen, Aspen Ridge and Willowgrove.”

The reservoir was approved for federal and provincial funding through the New Building Canada Fund. The project cost is $56,850,000 (Federal: $14,678,775; Provincial: $14,678,775; City: $27,492,450). 

“Reliable and sustainable water infrastructure contributes to the basics of a well-run city,” said the Honourable Dan Vandal, Minister of Northern Affairs, PrairiesCan and CanNor, on behalf of the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities. “The completion of the McOrmond Drive Reservoir and Pump Station, with its capacity to store 43 million litres of treated water, will ensure consistent water availability and the continued well-being of residents in Evergreen, Aspen Ridge, and Willowgrove for years to come.”

“The Government of Saskatchewan is pleased to join the City of Saskatoon in recognizing the completion of this important project,” said the Honourable Don McMorris, Minister of Government Relations. “Together, we are investing in infrastructure that builds and protects this province. We are proud to support projects that help Saskatchewan grow and meet the needs of current and future residents.”

“As the city continues to face accelerated population growth, it is essential that residents have access to clean and safe water,” said Mayor Charlie Clark. “Adding the City’s fourth reservoir and a new pump station will deliver treated water to Saskatoon’s east-side neighbourhoods, helping the City prepare for the increasing demand from residents and businesses. Thank you to both the Provincial and Federal Governments in helping to support this critical infrastructure and the future growth of Saskatoon.”

In addition to enhancing the City's water distribution capabilities, the McOrmond Drive Reservoir and Pump Station is equipped with the most up-to-date pumping systems and controls. The water is stored in an underground concrete reservoir that is approximately six metres deep.

Saskatoon has three other reservoirs that help deliver water to nearby neighbourhoods: the 42^nd Street Reservoir, the Avenue H Reservoir, and the Acadia Drive Reservoir. For more information about the McOrmond Drive Reservoir and Pump Station, please visit saskatoon.ca/reservoir.

Reconciliation Saskatoon invites everyone in the community to join the 2024 Rock Your Roots: Walk for Reconciliation on June 21 — National Indigenous Peoples Day.

Event Details:
Friday, June 21
10:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
Victoria Park

• 10:00 a.m. Gather in Victoria Park
• 10:30 -11:30 a.m. Reconciliation Walk along the river
• 11:30 -11:45 a.m. Walk ends in Victoria Park at Reconciliation Circle (near the Lions skate park)

After the walk, the Saskatoon Indian Métis Friendship Centre will host a free lunch, a program and activities in the park.

This walk brings the community together to honour the truth of the Residential schools and those who survived them, as well as demonstrate our collective commitment to reconciliation.

“I had a dream of walking for Residential School Survivors that didn’t have a voice,” says Jamie Fiddler, Residential School Survivor. “This Rock Your Roots walk is a covenant of truth or ‘tāpwēwin’ and reconciliation or ‘miyo-wâhkôhtowin.’ As we are one family, we walk and heal together, going into the future.”

Participants of the walk are invited to “Rock Your Roots” by wearing orange or contemporary/cultural regalia, or carrying signs that celebrate their heritage. Knowledge Keepers will start the day with a ceremony. Residential School Survivors will be honoured by leading the walk. Along the route, an international cast of singers, dancers, and musicians will celebrate the diverse cultures of Saskatoon.

This year, organizers have several initiatives to reduce waste at the event through their Mother Earth team.  They encourage participants to bring their own water bottle, waste free snacks, and throw compostables and recyclable items in the right bins.

Reconciliation Saskatoon recognizes the incredible support of Community Investors that make this walk possible. For the full list of supporters and all event details, visit: www.ReconciliationSaskatoon.com/rock-your-roots   

Rock Your Roots is organized by Reconciliation Saskatoon, which is co-chaired by the City of Saskatoon. The intent of this event is to answer the TRC Calls to Action by demonstrating a commitment to Reconciliation, honouring Residential School Survivors, and continuing work towards an inclusive community. The walk has been an annual one in Saskatoon since 2016.

Every employee deserves to feel safe at work and Saskatoon Transit is actively taking measures to provide a safe environment for frontline employees and customers.

Saskatoon Transit is working with the Saskatoon Police Service (SPS), Saskatoon Fire Department (SFD), Amalgamated Transit Union Local 615 (ATU) and other community stakeholders to address concerns with transit bus and facility safety. This work is being done as part of a larger community safety strategy throughout our community that the City of Saskatoon, SPS and SFD are actively rolling out.

Bus operators, supervisors and customer service employees have been exposed to more aggressive and violent incidents this spring. Since the beginning of May, Saskatoon Transit has increased security patrols at the Downtown, Confederation Mall and Market Mall transit terminals along with additional supervisor ride-alongs with operators to have an increased uniformed presence on buses and at facilities.

Several other initiatives are underway as part of the Saskatoon Transit Frontline Employee Safety Plan to improve safety on buses and at terminals for employees and riders. The plan will enhance security, improve internal processes, expand employee training, augment mental health support for employees following an incident, strengthen coordination with emergency services and build a stronger culture of safety at Saskatoon Transit. Initiatives include:

1. Streamlined process for reporting an incident to SPS to assist the incident investigation.
2. Deployment of the Fire Community Support team to bus terminals and on bus routes with a higher number of reported incidents.
3. Running a public marketing campaign featuring frontline employees from Saskatoon Transit to increase the profile of bus operators in the community.
4. Developing a process to ban a problem customer from Saskatoon Transit buses and facilities.
5. Exploring the feasibility of installing CCTV cameras at the Downtown and Confederation Mall terminals.
6. Rolling out the new Workplace Violence Prevention Policy and updated Respectful and Harassment-free Workplace process and introducing the new Corporate Customer Conduct Standard.
7. Developing and delivering new customer service and de-escalation training for frontline Saskatoon Transit employees.
8. Enhanced mental health support for Saskatoon Transit employees.
9. Advocating for tougher sentences under the Criminal Code for assaults against a Saskatoon Transit employee.

Saskatoon Transit will continue to protect its employees and customers through these new initiatives and by working closely with SPS, SFD, ATU and other community stakeholders on the "One City" approach to Community Safety and Wellbeing strategy.

In addition to these new initiatives, all buses have a protective operator barrier and CCTV cameras with visible signage to inform passengers that their actions are being recorded.

*This report includes road restrictions on Priority 1 (high traffic, high speed) streets only.
