On May 20, the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) released a public service announcement that provides more information to the public regarding the expanded testing criteria recently announced by the Ministry of Health. Beginning May 25, 2020, Saskatchewan residents can call HealthLine 811 to determine if they are eligible for testing based not only on existing guidelines, but also on the new criteria which includes having testing available for those who work outside the home (whether already working or returning to work). Testing will also be available for health care workers caring for immunocompromised patients and for those working in high volume work settings such as industries or factories on a voluntary basis. Government of Canada COVID-19 Support On May 15, the Government of Canada extended the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS) by an additional 12 weeks to August 29, 2020. Eligibility for the CEWS has been extended to the following groups: Partnerships that are up to 50-per-cent owned by non-eligible members; Indigenous government-owned corporations that are carrying on a business, as well as partnerships where the partners are Indigenous governments and eligible employers; Registered Canadian Amateur Athletic Associations; Registered Journalism Organizations; and Non-public colleges and schools, including institutions that offer specialized services, such as arts schools, driving schools, language schools or flight schools. On May 16, the Government of Canada announced up to $100 million in funding to help the Red Cross meet increased demand due to COVID-19, and to support future floods and wildfire relief efforts. 3 | P a g e May 21, 2020 | COVID-19 Bulletin to First Nations in Saskatchewan Additional support for Indigenous peoples living in urban centres and off reserve Today, the Government of Canada announced $75 million in new funding for Indigenous organizations providing services to Indigenous peoples in urban centres and off reserve. This additional funding will support more community-based projects that address the critical needs of Indigenous populations during this crisis, including food security, mental health support services, and sanitation and protective equipment. It could also help with other needs, such as support for Elders, transportation, and educational materials for Indigenous children and youth. Funding for projects will start rolling out in the coming weeks. As part of the $305 million distinctions-based Indigenous Community Support Fund announced on March 18, the Government of Canada provided: $215 million for First Nations, allocated to each First Nation based on population, remoteness and community well-being $45 million for Inuit, which flowed to each of the four land claims organizations through an allocation determined by the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami and regional Inuit land claims organizations $30 million for Métis Nation communities, which flowed through each of the Governing Members $15 million for Indigenous organizations and communities providing services to Indigenous peoples in urban centres and off reserve. The new $75 million will provide additional funding for the many organizations meeting the critical needs of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis in urban centres and off reserve. The First Nations Land Management Resource Centre is working with the Government of Canada to offer a series of national online conversations on Indigenous Law Enforcement. The first conversation will focus on Indigenous government responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, including laws enacted by Indigenous government and the enforcement considerations they face. This webinar will take place on May 29, 2020 at 12:00 pm EST/9:00 am PST.

Between February and March, poison centres received 58% more reports of exposure to these products, compared with the same period last year. To keep your home and family safe, read and follow the directions on product labels. Find more information on how to safely use these products here: https://healthycanadians.gc.ca/recall-alert-rappel-avis/hc-sc/2020/72983a-eng.php Support for children during COVID-19 Are you facing new challenges as a parent or caregiver due to COVID-19? Tips and ideas on how to support and engage with children during this new and unexpected situation are available at the link below. Full details can be found here: https://www.canada.ca/en/public- health/services/diseases/coronavirus-disease-covid-19/resources-parents-children.html Mental Health and Cultural Supports The First Nations Health Authority has gathered a list of helpful mental health and cultural supports that are available, including culturally safe crisis lines, cultural support workers and other resources. Use of non-medical cloth masks and face coverings in community settings Evidence indicates that pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic people could transmit the virus that causes COVID-19. As jurisdictions prepare to lift restrictive public health measures, non-medical masks or cloth facial coverings may be recommended as an additional layer of protection to limit the spread of COVID-19 in certain community settings. If used correctly, a non-medical mask can play an important role in situations where physical distancing is not possible or is unpredictable. A non-medical mask or cloth face covering is recommended for periods, particularly in crowded settings, where it is not possible to keep a two-metre physical distance from others: Community settings where physical barriers and spacing aids are not in place (e.g. some retail or work spaces) Enclosed environments (e.g. public or commercial

  • FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP GSSD Believes That We Are All Accountable
    March/April 2021 FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP GSSD believes that we are all accountable. Board members, students, staff, families and community members have a responsibility, both individually and as part of the learning team, to participate and to contribute positively to public education. STUDENT & FAMILY INTERNAL PROCESSES PEOPLE CAPACITY FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP FINANCIAL CAPACITY PEOPLE PROCESSES INTERNAL FAMILY & STUDENT Long-term Goals • By June 30, 2021, GSSD will implement systemic and transparent approaches to find efficiencies and increase value for money allowing the division to respond to the challenges of student and staff needs. 2021-22 BUDGET Provincial Context Saskatchewan school divisions will receive $1.96 billion in operating funding for the 2021-22 school year which is a net increase of $21.9 million over last year. Though the increase appears to be significant, much of it will be used to offset the costs associated with the teachers’ collective bargaining agreement as well as other minor adjustments within the operating grant. What Does this Mean for GSSD? GSSD’s projected enrolment for September 2021 is set to be approximately 127.50 lower than the previous year. Enrolment numbers are established with the support of local in-school administrators, year over year (straight- line) projections, and a software package called Barager Demographics. Though we are expecting the grant revenues for GSSD to increase slightly ($375,000) for the upcoming school year, the division’s associated expenses have also increased at a much high

  • Hansard for That Session
    LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF SASKATCHEWAN Fourth Session — Eighteenth Legislature December 5, 1977 The Assembly met at 2:00 o’clock p.m. On the Orders of the Day. QUESTIONS Briefing held for Oil Company Representatives Mr. R.A. LARTER (Estevan): – Mr. Speaker, a question to the minister in charge of Saskoil. At the meeting on Friday with oil industry representatives why were only Alberta headquartered companies and associations invited to the briefing by the provincial government following the tabling of Bill 47? And further, why were Saskatchewan producers that showed up at this meeting turned away? HON. J.R. MESSER (Minister of Mineral Resources): – Mr. Speaker, I don’t know specifically why the member for Estevan would address the question to the minister of charge of Saskoil, certainly Saskoil were not in any way involved, directly, in the invitations that were extended. I have no real reason to believe that the evidence that the member brings forward is legitimate. It was an undertaking of the government to invite oil industry representatives who may have some interest in the legislation that was tabled on that day. My understanding was that it was an open invitation. Certainly there was some discussion prior to the Friday meeting in the press that the industry would be invited to meet briefly with the Attorney General so that some more detailed, I guess, responses could be made in regard to that legislation and an invitation was extended to them for a period of a week to make known to the government any concerns that they may have in relation to that legislation.
