Gravelbourg RCMP are now searching for a fourth suspect in connection to a break-in near Lefleche, Sask. which saw thieves steal multiple guns. RCMP have charged Anna-Linn Kisilevich, 29, with breaking and entering and trafficking a firearm. She is described as five foot, four inches tall – weighing 150 pounds. She has brown eyes, black hair, and multiple tattoos. They include a moon and lyrics on her right wrist, Italian words on her left shoulder and an arrow on her left arm. Anyone with information on Kisilevich’s whereabouts are asked to contact Gravelbourg RCMP. The break-in occurred on April 29, at a rural property near Lafleche – located 200 kilometres southwest of Regina. Police determined that unknown individuals broke into a home and stole two guns. A continued investigation led to police arresting and charging the first suspect on June 5. The 46-year-old from Lafleche faces one count of breaking and entering and failure to comply with a probation order. On July 3, a second man and a woman were charged. According to RCMP, the stolen guns were recovered. A 45-year-old man, also from Lafleche, faces a singular count of breaking and entering, trafficking a firearm and two counts of possessing a firearm while prohibited. A 33-year-old Gravelbourg woman faces two charges related to the break-in and alleged trafficking. RCMP continue to investigate the matter.

Funnel clouds possible across central, southern Sask. today |

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has issued a special weather statement warning of possible funnel clouds in central and southern Saskatchewan on Monday. Both Regina and Saskatoon are included in the advisory on ECCC’s website. According to ECCC, funnel clouds that may develop on Monday are generated by weak rotation under rapidly growing clouds or weak thunderstorms. ECCC said the weak rotation is not usually a danger near the ground but there is a chance a weak landspout tornado could develop. “If conditions become more favourable for the development of landspout tornadoes, watches and warnings will be issued,” the weather service said. Landspout tornadoes do not usually cause significant damage but can still be dangerous and strong enough to topple trees, damage roofs or toss debris short distances, ECCC said.

Saskatchewan commits 20 million to help rebuild communities destroyed by wildfires |

The Government of Saskatchewan has set aside $20 million to support communities and residents affected by this year’s wildfires. The Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency has established a “Recovery Task Team” to lead the effort. The funding will be used to remove debris, environmental testing, and the expansion of community landfills. “We know that the road to recovery begins with clearing the way, quite literally and figuratively,” Minister of Corrections, Policing and Public Safety Tim McLeod explained. The funding will be accessible to communities that sustained losses during the provincial state of emergency from May 29 to June 26. McLeod noted that the funding is not meant to replace personal or business insurance coverage, but it can be used for losses not covered under a standard fire insurance policy. “Wildfires are typically an insurable natural occurrence, and as such, we strongly encourage individuals and businesses to contact their insurance providers as soon as possible if they have not already done so,” he said. As of Monday morning, there are 67 wildfires burning in the province. Eight are considered contained, 17 are not contained, 26 are under ongoing assessment and protecting values is the priority for 16 fires. Rainfall and cooler temperatures allowed the province to end its state of emergency on June 27. At that time, evacuations had ended for all but two communities across the province. At the emergency’s height, the wildfires forced around 15,000 residents to flee their homes. Wildfire activity has peaked again in recent days. The current total of 67 fires is more than double the total while the state of emergency was in effect. The fires stretch across Saskatchewan’s sparsely populated north — with flames reported as far north as Wollaston Lake and as far south as the Carrot River area. On June 20, the province confirmed that over 1,900 values had been lost so far this fire season. The losses included 299 houses and 60 cabins.

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has issued a heat warning for southwest Saskatchewan, as daily high temperatures are expected to reach 32 C. The warning covers most of the province’s southwest corner including but not limited to Swift Current, Shaunavon, Maple Creek, Richmound and Leader. The heat is expected to move into the area on Tuesday – and last until Wednesday afternoon. “Extreme heat can affect everyone’s health,” the warning read. ECCC reminds residents that symptoms of heat exhaustion include headaches, nausea, dizziness, thirst, dark urine and intense fatigue. The heat warnings come as much of Saskatchewan’s southeast and east central regions are under funnel cloud advisories. The area surrounding La Ronge also falls under an air quality warning due to wildfire activity.

Review of workplace culture at Regina hospitals complete, after allegations of ‘racism’ and ‘discriminatory leadership’ |

An external review of the workplace culture at Regina-area hospitals is now complete. The review followed allegations of racism, misconduct, and a lack of professionalism at Regina’s General Hospital (RGH). The province says the review was conducted by “two highly respected medical leaders” from Ontario and Nova Scotia and includes 14 recommendations for the Ministry of Health, Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA), Saskatchewan Medical Association (SMA) and the University of Saskatchewan’s College of Medicine. “Regina physicians have expressed to us a feeling of disengagement at times with the [SHA]. That’s why I think it’s critical for us to engage the physicians early and continue to engage them often, to help them to work through this report and implementing these recommendations,” shared SMA President Dr. Pamela Arnold. To make the improvements the province says the SHA and SMA will be holding engagement sessions with Regina hospital physicians before finalizing an action plan. Complaints over the work environment at RGH first came to light in November 2023 – when several doctors, who received their education and training in Africa and Asia, filed a complaint with the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission – claiming white physicians were being given preferential treatment. On Monday afternoon, SHA told the media the third party review presents an opportunity for health officials to “move forward to a positive future” with its community of doctors through collaboration. “The [SHA] values diversity. We would strongly believe that that is one of the strengths of our health system. We’re very committed to ensuring that we have an environment that is safe for all that work here,” said SHA’s chief executive officer Andrew Will. “Our goal is to have a workforce, including our physician team, that’s representative of the populations that that we serve. I will also say we have a zero tolerance for racism, for discrimination … I think it’s just important to emphasize that when we do have concerns of racism that come forward, we do investigate those through robust, independent processes to ensure that that we address, any concerns that are legitimate. The province says it is also taking immediate actions to address some of the 14 recommendations from the review. That includes restructuring the SHA’s Senior Physician Leadership structure that was announced on June 12, working collaboratively with the SMA to finalize practitioner staff bylaws and launching the SHA’s anti-racism strategy. “One of the things that have been identified in the last year or two is that we needed to start engaging on the ground, helping to inform us make our decisions on how we’re going to move forward,” said interim chief medical officer Dr. Jordan Wingate, referring to SHA’s physician leadership structure. Based on the report’s findings, Wingate said the SHA is committed to making changes for its community of doctors, as well to strengthen the province’s goal for recruitment and retention. “Obviously this report would’ve been great if it was a glowing report, but it was not and we have to accept that. We have to own that, but more importantly we have to decide how we’re going to go forward collaboratively with our physicians, with [the SMA] and the SHA,” he expressed. “To me, it’s about what we do from here on out that’s going to identify Saskatchewan as a destination.” In the report’s announcement, Health Minister Jeremy Cockrill said he has faith that the review’s recommendations will benefit both doctors and patients. The province says longer-term implementation of actions to address the 14 recommendations will be rolled out over the next six to 12 months.

Regina Urgent Care Centre forced to close early for second time in a month |

Regina’s Urgent Care Centre is back to operating on regular hours again after being forced to close early on Sunday due to a physician shortage – which has spurred questions from the NDP Opposition. Sunday, July 6 marks the second time in less than a month that the facility was forced to close its doors early due to staffing issues. The facility normally accepts patients until 9:30 p.m. but was forced to close at 4 p.m. Sunday. The centre was supposed to be operating 24/7 last fall. As the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) COO Derek Miller told reporters Monday, recruiting doctors has been an ongoing challenge for the agency. “We have been careful to understand the impact of recruiting physicians from community – away from family practices for recruitment of family physicians and also the emergency room physicians,” Miller explained. “We need to be able to sustain emergency room services at the Pasqua Hospital and the [Regina General Hospital].” Originally, Regina’s Urgent Care Centre was supposed to be open around the clock. Now the SHA says that between the centre and emergency rooms, patient demand is being met. “We know that our peak demand throughout the day for urgent type services be it that are coming through the emergency rooms or the UCC we’re covering that now,” Miller added. The province plans to open additional urgent care centres in Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, Prince Albert and North Battleford. The NDP Opposition questions how the government plans to staff more facilities given the situation in Regina. “They can’t even properly staff the one facility that they have open,” NDP MLA Keith Jorgenson said. “You know, this is all smoke and mirrors.” The SHA says it will continue to assess how the Urgent Care Centre and emergency rooms are working together in meeting patient needs. The assessment will guide a future decision on Urgent Care Centre hours. In the meantime, physician recruitment continues.

Trump delays deadline for trade deals, Canada’s deadline remains in place |

U.S. President Donald Trump started sending out letters to governments around the world Monday threatening high tariffs in the absence of trade deals -- even as he gave himself more time to make those deals. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump will sign an executive order Monday to delay the threatened tariffs -- which were set to take effect Wednesday -- until Aug. 1. Canada was not targeted by those global tariffs and has committed to coming up with some sort of bilateral deal with the U.S. by July 21. The Prime Minister’s Office said Monday it was still working toward that deadline. Fen Osler Hampson, international affairs professor at Carleton University, said there’s no point in Canada committing to a trade deal before it knows what’s in other countries’ trade agreements with the U.S. “There’s probably what I would call a last-mover advantage,” Hampson said. “If you are looking at what other countries are negotiating, particularly a potential competitor, you want to come in with a tariff that is lower than what they have negotiated because that’s going to make you more competitive.” Trump took his trade war to the world with his so-called “reciprocal” tariffs in April, but walked back the most devastating duties a few hours later. A 10 per cent universal tariff remained in place for most countries. Trump set a 90-day deadline to make deals -- but the only trade arrangements the Trump administration has come up with since have been frameworks for deals with the United Kingdom and Vietnam. Members of Trump’s administration changed their tune over the weekend about whether those elevated tariffs would descend on global markets this week. The president ramped up pressure on Monday by sending correspondence to countries hit by “Liberation Day” duties warning them he will impose a high tariff rate if there’s no trade deal. He posted letters sent to Japan and South Korea on social media Monday morning. Leavitt said 12 more letters would be released on the president’s social media throughout the day. While not affected by those global tariffs, Canada is still being hit with fentanyl-related U.S. tariffs. Those 25 per cent tariffs, with a lower 10 per cent levy on energy and potash, only apply to exports that don’t comply with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade. Canada is also being hit with Trump’s tariffs on steel, aluminum and automobiles. Prime Minister Mark Carney and Trump agreed in March to negotiate a new security and economic partnership, and have been working toward that since Carney visited the White House in early May. Those negotiations were briefly thrown off track in late June by Trump’s demand that Canada drop its digital services tax. Ottawa terminated that tax on technology giants just before it was set to be collected on June 30. Canadians will be watching closely to see whether the U.S. arrives at new trade agreements with other nations this week. It could show what Trump and his team are prioritizing ahead of the deadline for Canada. The United Kingdom and Vietnamese frameworks suggest the president is committed to keeping some baseline tariffs in place. Hampson said he’ll be watching to see what level of baseline tariffs countries accept in any “broad-brushstroke agreements.” He said he’ll also watch for changes to sectoral tariffs and whether there are quota agreements for those duties. The United Kingdom negotiated a lower 10 per cent tariff on automobiles for a quota of 100,000 vehicles. Trump claimed Sunday that his administration had made deals and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CNBC on Monday that there will be several announcements “in the next 48 hours.” Bessent said Trump is concerned about “the quality of the deals, not the quantity.” “As you could imagine, as (Trump) started herding the cats and trying to get everyone across the finish line, when he said that there’s a chance countries could boomerang back to their April 2 reciprocal tariff levels, we’ve had a lot of people change their tune in terms of negotiations,” he said.

Former reality TV star charged in man’s overdose death |

A woman who appeared on MTV’s “16 and Pregnant” was arrested Monday in Georgia on charges including involuntary manslaughter related to a man’s death by fentanyl poisoning earlier this year. Whitney Purvis, 33, was being held without bond in the Floyd County Jail in Rome, Georgia, about 65 miles (105 kilometres) northwest of Atlanta, according to online jail records. Online records did not indicate whether she had an attorney who could comment the charges. WAGA-TV reported that police records say that officers went to a home in Rome on Feb. 16 and found John Mark Harris dead from an overdose. Officers saw possible drug paraphernalia at the scene. An arrest warrant accuses Purvis of giving Harris a combination of xylazine and fentanyl known as “Tranq” that led to an overdose, the television station reported. Purvis was arrested by the Drug Enforcement Administration and local officers, according to a statement from the federal agency. The investigation is ongoing, the DEA said. “DEA reminds the public that nearly 70% of all drug-related deaths involve synthetic opioids, like fentanyl,” said Jae Chung, DEA acting special agent in charge of the Atlanta office. “Two milligrams of fentanyl is a potentially deadly dose.”
