YXE Top Lawyer says “…we do monitor it and we have specified that type of construction in areas where we thought vibration would be important to avoid.”
Which YXE property owners get the benefit of low impact and which get risk of high impact construction practices for ADUs? – at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
Guaranteed this will become a safety video in the near future.

This is an understatement - fraud in temporary worker programs was known to the government well before 2017. This is from an RCMP report on human trafficking released in 2010, based on activity from 2005-2009:
💥EXPLOSIVE ATIP: Immigration Canada knew Indian agents were running MASSIVE FRAUD in the trucking industry and the student visa program as early as 2017 — and stamped the evidence "DO NOT DISCLOSE."
According to records released under the Access to Information Act, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) maintained an internal procedures manual for its New Delhi visa office documenting systemic fraud across the student visa and temporary foreign worker streams. The manual instructs officers to treat fraud as anticipated rather than exceptional
The most damning thing about this scandal is not the fraud — it's that the government predicted it, kept it running, and then stamped the file "DO NOT DISCLOSE."
Canada didn't lose control of its immigration system—they monetized it.
The “too tall house” was built as the personal residence for a local builder/developer that sat on the Board of Directors for the Saskatoon & Region Homebuilders Association.
Bylaw appeals are so common for affluent homeowners wishing to game the system.

“Then, a complaint from an unknown person about the height in May prompted an inspection that found the three-storey house exceeded the 8.5-metre maximum height for homes…by more than a metre.”
Wasn’t me! Good job to someone!

Throw the book at him. 20 full days of community service.
A grieving father who ran over his son’s alleged killer had been provoked just moments before, but did not plan to kill anyone.

When I think about all the things that have been going wrong at the city, I wonder who should take responsibility.
I’m not talking about unfortunate events. I’m talking about horrendous screwups - one after the other!
Perhaps a new City Manager is appropriate!
Do not let City Council slide through another unwarranted contract extension for City Manager Jeff Jorgensen tomorrow. We have better options!

My mother told me about receiving a call from someone that sounded like her grandchild. She wasn’t 100% sure so she asked the name of the family cat. The very convincing scammer hung up immediately.

It’s a scam but it’s a government program so that makes it legal.
Still a scam!
His "Buyback" $$$ Changed After Hand-In
A 🇨🇦 gun owner shared their estimated 'buyback' money after it went from $33,600, to only $553 within minutes of handing in his rifles.

The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and HRH the Crown Prince offer condolences to the Governor General of Canada over the victims of a fire at a Canadian Forces base in Alberta.
A developer got caught in Halifax running two sets of drawings. Sounds like something that would happen in Saskatoon.
Many builders and developers find it much easier to apply for bylaw variances especially when after getting caught.

Wow!
A rare moment when the government acknowledges a mistake within a relatively short timeframe.
Good job!

Canada has become overwhelmed with an influx of unqualified immigrants that are seeking to build a new life in Canada with government benefits and entry level jobs. This has a massive ripple effect across every demographic.
It’s statistics- not racism!

My son was taught firearm safety at an early age - the same as me and my younger sister.
The basic rules are to treat all firearms as if they are loaded, never point them at something you don’t want to shoot and keep your finger OFF THE TRIGGER until you are ready to shoot!
When an oil company seeks to drill a well, we cannot use modern paperwork/GPS coordinates. We must speak to elders that know the traditional hunting grounds.
If this lawyer uses traditional stories, rather than modern paperwork, to say that she’s indigenous, we must believe her!

My poor mother will continue to worry about me!
I shall have to remind her AGAIN how well foreigners were treated during the pandemic.
Thankful for the top notch communication and safety provided by my host country today - and for the past decade.
Keep up the good work KSA!

This was a great video posted BEFORE bylaw variance Appeal #1 before the Development Appeal Board for 833 University Drive. It’s a great video to post AFTER Appeal #2 following city hall making bylaw changes under the guise of affordable housing.
Strong ties to SRHBA helps!
Imagine if your new build was bigger than the approved drawings. Building permit fraud is real!
