This is the face of a hero. Sean Hayes, a teacher, used his body to help a teenage girl who was set ablaze at Evan Hardy School in Saskatoon last week. Apparently he will require surgery after getting third degree burns. GoFundMe 👉🏻 gofundme.com/f/help-support-…

Meet Brutus. He has terminal cancer. His owner wants him to get 1,000 pets from strangers to thank him for being such a good friend. He'll be at the Southland Mall Pet Valu tomorrow starting at 10:30. a.m. but we'll hear more at 7:20

Today — on the 79th anniversary of D-Day — we remember the more than 14,000 🇨🇦’s who bravely stormed the beaches of Normandy. Their efforts helped liberate Western Europe and bring an end to a terrible war. They will not be forgotten.

Today we honour Jordan River Anderson and his family for the gift of Jordan's Principle. Jordan's Principle is a child-first principle that ensures no other First Nations children needlessly suffer the way Jordan River Anderson did. Join us in honouring #BearWitnessDay.

Thirty-seven years ago today, Tommy Douglas passed away. I am asking you to share this message, to remind Doug Ford that he was voted the Greatest Canadian because he spent his life fighting for publicly-funded, publicly-delivered health care. Let’s honour Tommy’s legacy.

Hi everyone just your daily reminder that the Sask party continues to underfund public education in this province. Fun facts; SK has the lowest Funding per student, lowest funding per EA and student ratio, and the lowest paid teachers in Western Canada.

Just a quick reminder that healthcare is a provincial responsibility. Have the conversations at a provincial level. If we are a strong province then we can show everyone how it’s done.

Today, the federal government will offer the provinces over $100 billion in healthcare funding. Who else thinks that all this funding should go towards our public healthcare system…and not to expanding for-profit healthcare to make shareholders richer? ✋🏽

Missing from the Premier's statements are the words "Family Doctor." Why does Moe never talk about primary care? Surgeries. Mental Health. Health Human Resources. Check. Check. Check. Nothing about ensuring you have access to a family doctor. leaderpost.com/news/saskatch…

Health care deals with feds likely to have conditions, says policy expert

"Provinces are going to have to say where the money is going to go," speculated URegina policy professor Tom McIntosh.

Your child’s pediatrician probably has never seen a case of polio, diphtheria, measles, congenital rubella, or even H. influenzae type b meningitis. We have vaccines to thank for that. Let’s not allow short memory spans and misinformation to take us back to a much darker time.

Alright Twitter, my family physician is leaving in April. This will be the 6th physician I’ve had leave in five years. Does anyone know of doctors accepting new patients in #yqr? #Sask #saskatchewan #regina @SaskHealth

When you hear the government talk about expanding private for-profit healthcare, remember that this would: - worsen health worker shortages in our public system - divert public dollars towards corporate profits - lead to a decline in the quality of care Please…remember this.
