In the decision issued by the Court of Appeal, released on Monday, the justices dismissed the board’s appeal and ordered the board to pay Oberg’s costs of the appeal. In a statement to the Review, Oberg said, “The Court of Appeal agreed with the Queen’s Bench Court that the process followed in my case was unfair and the decision to demote me was unreasonable. These events have had a major impact on me and my family, both professionally and personally. I am grateful the mistakes that were made have been corrected.” His lawyer, Amanda Quayle of the McDougall Gauley law firm, added her comments on the decision.

While facilities were not the main objective of the report, Dobson added a few informational items of interest dealing with damages inflicted on Cornerstone schools as a result of the high winds that arrived with the severe winter storm on January 13. One notable damage report indicated that the Gladmar School roof was nearly completely destroyed by the high winds and some brickwork was damaged. Other schools suffered varying degrees of damage, including the Weyburn Comprehensive School that also suffered roof damages. He said roof anchors kept the WCS roof in place, but damages were still significant. Other facilities like the Estevan Comprehensive School and the new Legacy Park Elementary School in Weyburn suffered more minor damages.
The students determined that 10 per cent of their final profits would be donated to the five elementary schools in Weyburn. They donated a total of $696.19, which was divided up and given to Haig, Souris, Queen Elizabeth, Assiniboia Park and St. Michael Schools, with the funds to be used for purchasing food for children who may not be able to afford their food all of the time. In the company’s final report, they explained they wanted to donate the funds to the schools “because the majority of our company members attended these schools growing up and we wanted to give back to the schools that shaped us into who we are today.”
