Flags lowered to honour passing of the Honourable Murray Sinclair
November 6, 2024 - 4:30pm
The City of Saskatoon has lowered flags to half-staff in respect and remembrance of the Honourable Murray Sinclair. Flags will remain lowered until sundown on Sunday November 10, the day of his memorial service.
An Anishinaabe and member of the Peguis First Nation, Sinclair leaves behind a powerful legacy dedicated to Indigenous justice and advocacy through his work as a lawyer, the first Indigenous-appointed judge in Manitoba and second appointed in Canada.
In 2009, Sinclair was appointed Head Commissioner of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). He was tasked with investigating the accounts and impacts of Canada’s residential school system, introducing the 94 Calls to Action in 2015. These recommendations formed the basis for the City of Saskatoon’s work in the area of Indigenous Initiatives and promoting reconciliation in our community.
“Murray Sinclair was one of the greatest nation builders this country has ever known. He was a genius of a leader who knew how to transform hearts and minds through his love and his deep understanding of justice,” says Mayor Charlie Clark. “As people of this land, it is our duty to carry on the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, drawing on the strength and wisdom he shared with everyone. Our deepest condolences to his family and those who loved him.”
Shortly after the end of the TRC Commission, he was appointed to the Canadian Senate, helping to draft and pass legislation on water animal protection, LGBTQ2S+ rights, and Indigenous languages, rights, and child welfare jurisdiction.
The Honourable Murray Sinclair will be laid to rest in West St. Paul Manitoba.

City crews and winter equipment ready for risk of freezing rain, first snowfall of the season
November 4, 2024 - 3:30pm
Environment and Climate Change Canada is forecasting periods of snow and the risk of freezing rain beginning early Tuesday morning and continuing throughout the day. City crews are fully prepared to manage the road conditions.
Roadway crews with 17 Sander units and, if needed, 10 Plow trucks will focus on priority streets for the morning commute with de-icing treatments, starting with Circle Drive and expressways, and will continue to maintain city streets as long as the weather persists.
With snow, freezing rain, and subzero temperatures in the forecast, road conditions can become dangerous. Drivers are encouraged to adjust to winter conditions, keeping a safe distance from other vehicles.
Please give road equipment the space they need to operate, signaled by their blue and amber flashing lights. Service Alerts will keep residents updated on the need for road maintenance.

Saskatoon Transit warns public to be aware of fare scam
November 4, 2024 - 2:07pm
- The scam offers seem too good to be true.
- The website may not be an official webpage or social media account page.
- Requests for personal or financial information are a red flag.
- The City never requests or collects credit card, bank accounts or any sort of personal information from customers via phone, text, social media, or email.
- Never give out your personal or banking information, or credit card number over the phone, by text, on social media, by email, or on a non-trusted website. It is a best practice to block suspicious phone numbers, email addresses or social media accounts and delete them after reporting.
- Do not click on suspicious web links.
- Always verify information from trusted sources:
- Official website:
- Saskatoon.ca
- Saskatoontransit.ca or Transit.saskatoon.ca
- Social media channels:
- @cityofsaskatoon
- @stoontransit
- Official website:
Saskatoon Transit is warning residents of a “Saskatoon Public Transport Card” fare scam on social media and through a fraudulent website.
A fraudulent social media account is advertising a scam offer for a $2.00 Go-Pass that supposedly provides six months of unlimited travel. Additionally, a linked website falsely impersonates as an official Saskatoon Transit page, promoting the opportunity to receive one of 500 limited edition cards for six months of unlimited travel through an online survey. This deceptive tactic seeks to mislead individuals into purchasing a fake pass and sharing their personal information.
To find the complete list of fare prices for Saskatoon Transit, visit: saskatoontransit.ca/fares-passes.
How to identify a potential scam:
Helpful reminders to help protect residents from potential scammers:
Scammers typically use the information gathered to get money or commit identity theft.
Residents should contact their bank if they have become a victim of fraud and report these types of phone or online scams to Saskatoon Police Service at saskatoonpolice.ca/onlinereporting/fraud/ or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, 1-888-495-8501.
Concerned residents may also call the City of Saskatoon to speak with a Customer Service Representative at 306-975-2400.

Getting ready for winter at the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo; Admission by donation begins November 1
November 1, 2024 - 8:00am
The fun doesn’t stop just because the temperature drops! Admission to the Zoo is by donation from November 1 to March 31 each year. Saskatchewan winters typically bring snow and cold temperatures prompting many animals at the Zoo to demonstrate their natural adaptations to handle the coldest months of the year.
The snow leopard, Arctic wolves, Canada lynx and caribou are among some of the many animals that will be embracing the colder temperatures while other zoo animals like the zebras, dingoes and ring-tailed lemurs will be relocating to indoor habitats until warmer temperatures return.
Grizzly bears Mistaya and Koda are getting ready to sleep away the cold winter days and the black-tailed prairie dogs are expected to start hibernation in the coming weeks.
The Café and Gift Shop at the Zoo are closed for the season.
The Fishing Pond at the Forestry Farm Park is closed for the season and will reopen next spring.
The Zoo is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and the Forestry Farm Park is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., visit saskatoon.ca/zoo for more information or to plan your next visit.

Pilot washroom trailer closes October 31
October 30, 2024 - 8:00am
The piloted washroom trailer located at the site of the Central Urban Métis Federation (CUMFI) office at 315 Avenue M South will be closed for the season on October 31.
The washroom trailer officially opened on August 27 and has been accessed over 14,304 times throughout the pilot by people of all ages. The trailer was staffed 24/7 by the Saskatoon Tribal Council (STC) Sawēyihtotān Program, providing a welcoming and safe place. People using this washroom location could use the facilities to wash up, rinse their clothes, have a snack along with a bottle of water or coffee. Sawēyihtotān Outreach also offered additional assistance with accessing emergency shelter and provided transportation and advocacy to connect individuals with other necessary resources.
“This pilot project has been a very positive experience for the City, Sawēyihtotān, CUMFI and those using the facility,” says Pamela Goulden McLeod, Director of the Saskatoon Emergency Management Organization. “What this project has done is provide a safe place for people to come have a sense of belonging while being treated with dignity and respect. It also acted as an informal navigation centre for anyone who looking for help, shelter and stability.”
The facility was fully operational for the entire time it was open, with only minor plumbing repairs needed, which were associated with the high volume of users. There was no intentional damage done to the washrooms at any time.
“The feedback we’ve received from community partners and users has been overwhelmingly positive. The facility and partnership model has proven to be a much-needed resource, and the trailer has been a great success story for our community,” says Goulden McLeod. “We extend our thanks to CUMFI for hosting the washroom trailer, to Sawēyihtotān for staffing the trailer location, to the Saskatoon Friendship Inn for providing daily sandwiches and for all of the residents, businesses and partners who provided their support.”
A total of $700,000 was allocated to the project from the City’s Reserve for Capital Expenditures. To date, approximately $506,300 has been spent on the washroom which includes purchase of and modifications to the trailer, staffing, supplies and maintenance. The used trailer itself cost just under $52,000 to purchase.
