At the start of 2020, the Saskatoon Airport was “well-positioned for growth and ready for another successful year,” according to president and CEO Stephen Maybury. The Airport Authority was debt-free, and making plans for future capital projects.
SASKATOON As more COVID-19 variants are found across Canada, infectious disease expert Jason Kindrachuk says now is the time for the Saskatchewan government to look at introducing further restrictions. “I think we’re really in a bit of a time crunch if we want to get control,” he told CTV News. Research suggests the variants of concern, first identified in the United Kingdom, South Africa and Brazil, are more contagious than the original strain, but not more severe. Some of these variants have now been found in Ontario, Quebec and Alberta, but not in Saskatchewan. “We’re still at an early stage, at least in western Canada, in particular in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, where we haven’t recognized any cases of the variants here yet. So, what that means is we still have the ability to control introduction,” said Kindrachuk, who works as a virologist and Canadian Research Chair in emerging viruses at the University of Manitoba.
One woman was in buying Bristol board so she can make big signs for her family as they have a Zoom Christmas. Another lady was putting family recipes together and getting them sent out to her adult daughters so they could make the family favorites in their own homes this year. Yes, it will be very different and I have heard the phrase “simple Christmas” over and over again. Can Christmas be simple? We arrived home on a late-night flight, thoroughly exhausted and exhilarated. As we passed through the sliding glass doors at the Saskatoon Airport, I was carrying our new little daughter in my arms following the completion of her adoption and our trip to Romania to bring her home.
