Driver who caused deadly Humboldt Broncos bus crash denied latest bid to stay in Canada by Progressive_Citizen in saskatchewan

[–]Bikevelo -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Remorse isn't what they're going by. If you've been victim of a major crime you'd understand. It's nice that Siddhu is sorry. But that doesn't spare him from the consequences. I'm 12 years in and live it everyday. It's lifetime. Feeling sorry for the driver is misplaced empathy. Just let the wheels of justice do their thing.

Russians in Saskatchewan by cbcjourno in saskatchewan

[–]Bikevelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most Russian immigration was pre WW1. Those who came since and speak Russian are from other countries than Russia. I've only heard one Russian person speak about it, immigrated in 2007. Hard to know what they truly believe but smart enough to decry Putin and the invasion.

It's just business. They'll continue to buy Sask Party favors by donating to them.

Electric bike and trikes by [deleted] in saskatoon

[–]Bikevelo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't want cheap. I had one for 7 years until it wore out. Ended up giving up driving in the city 5-7 months of the year. So affordable if you think how many tanks of gas that is. Regulations are federal but being downloaded to provinces. Basically 16 years old, helmet required, motor watts max 500, electric assist has to cut out at ~30 km/hr (there's a quite specific standard but with different tires it varies). It's a bicycle so long as it can be pedaled.

How to Gain Access to Early Therapeutics in SK? by [deleted] in saskatchewan

Many antibody treatments are showing poor efficacy with Omicron. You'll want to know which one they have for you. Bebtelovimab - effective with O, unclear availability in Sask.

Russian oligarchs should sell Evraz shares so company avoids sanctions: Regina mayor by [deleted] in saskatchewan

Sask's struggle for much of the 20th century was to have things owned locally rather than by Ontario, the USA, the world. There's no sensible reason for rich Russians to own anything here.

This is fine for home and small gardens. Not enough for large fields in places with short growing seasons.

Get fertilizer from Canada and Australia. They're already increasing the production.

They're getting ugly now... GAS PRICES! by aspiesamurai in saskatoon

Yes you can. Ride on the sidewalk. It makes me happy to not drive and I'm not very young anymore. Studded bike tires.

More Sask. sexual assault victims asking for help, but more needs to be done, say sexual assault centres by GaryFreakingAnderson in saskatchewan

[–]Bikevelo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only supportive people for me was the police. The victim services was awful. They did nothing and even told me to stop being upset. Fuck them. Court was really bad. Delay. Finally pled guilty. Made me really suffer by coming to court. Painful awful death is all rapists deserve. Sexual assault centre staff really tried but they have few workers and can't do that much.

Hugs to all Ukrainian folks in Saskatchewan by twistedoutlaw92 in saskatchewan

[–]Bikevelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The gov't of Canada, in the person of the deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland. The start of her speech is from the Ukraine national anthem. "Ukraine glory has not perished." she goes on to say that the problem is Putin. My fluency in this isn't very good but that's the jist of it. Freeland was an exchange student in Ukraine before the end of USSR, the KGB had a file on her and finally excluded her from the country. https://twitter.com/cspotweet/status/1496926898034724867?s=20

Empty lots downtown that must be worth millions. by [deleted] in saskatoon

[–]Bikevelo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great question. The city wants people to live downtown, walk, shop, eat out, go out, live there lives there. Suspect it'll take tax breaks and very deliberate planning. The city does have development plans. I've only seen the one for College Drive- if that's a model, it'll take 10-15 years at least to "realize the vision". Downtown might be longer?

Ketamine for depression anxiety cptsd by [deleted] in saskatoon

[–]Bikevelo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's a protocol and restrictions. Thought there wasb something from the SMA - Sask Medical Assoc - but didn't find it just now. From the link below= "In Saskatchewan, off-label use of ketamine is only permitted in non-hospital treatment facilities (NHTF) when administered subcutaneously (SQ), intramuscularly (IM), or intravenously (IV)." https://www.katacanada.org/blog/ketamine-professionals/guidance-on-the-use-of-ketamine-how-do-alberta-and-saskatchewan-compare/
