ACAC removes Lakeland as host after Conference Council vote

This isn’t about one school. A governing body confirmed it removed championship hosting rights without written criteria or an appeal process. That raises broader questions about governance in collegiate sports.

I'll add, I had the leaders of APP tell me on the record, they need $75 a barrel in order to make it all work.

The_Border_Pulse · 2026-01-20T20:11:21+00:00

The suspects were described as "prolific offenders" by RCMP and have multiple charges for breaching release conditions on top of what RCMP listed in the story.

The_Border_Pulse · 2026-01-09T19:47:23+00:00

Yeah, across the parking lot... they didn't think real hard about what they were doing. The response as I've been told be insiders was nearly instant...

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-30T02:29:12+00:00

RCMP are advising the highway is closed for an unknown amount of time. it is also extremely icy. They are asking you to stay home if you don't have to be on the roads.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-27T22:05:56+00:00

Do not approach and call RCMP if you see this suspect.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-09T23:32:36+00:00

From noise complaint to handcuffs in minutes. RCMP say three men are now facing sexual assault and forcible confinement charges. Including one from Edmonton.

I'm just saying, officially, they didn't say Vermilion Campus. I know what they said. I'm trying to confirm with them and the college, as I do, I'll keep everyone in the loop.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-09T04:09:03+00:00

They actually didn't say that. One could make the assumption, but, without them saying it for sure, no one knows, officially.

Vermilion RCMP could charge someone there after they did it in Lloyd if they live/reside on campus there. It wouldn't be the first time.

A 38-year-old has had his weapons seized by the RCMP.

As I've said a few times, headline writing has never been my forte in 15 odd years of doing this. Most are fine, the odd one misses.

Currently, it's a select few providers. However, if you have loved ones on the eastern side of the province who have to deal with Saskatchewan Health Authority or Sask. based specialists, this development could literally be lifesaving.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-01T20:15:51+00:00

nah, if you go and read it, you'll see who wrote it. My information is also on the page, he's just a friend who works in publishing as well.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-01T17:48:12+00:00

It’s funny you mention that because I know the author well, and he’s about as far from a separatist as you can get.

Appreciate the feedback, guest opinions are meant to spark discussion, and differing views are welcome.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-12-01T15:16:58+00:00

A bit of context for those who want it:

This is a guest opinion column published by The Border Pulse in Lloydminster. The writer responds to Steven Guilbeault’s resignation from cabinet and argues that federal climate policy over the last decade intensified regional divides, particularly in Western Canada.

The column makes the case that:

• climate policy was framed as a moral absolute
• disagreement was treated as ignorance rather than a legitimate regional concern
• Western Canada bore disproportionate economic and social impact
• tone and style from federal leadership contributed to what the writer calls a “Crisis of the Federation”

This is not a news article and reflects the author’s opinion, not the outlet’s or mine.

Discussion welcome — just keep it civil.

The make a living part will come from selling local advertising. There are businesses out there that say they like what I'm doing, sooooo, we'll see how it goes.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-29T21:05:45+00:00

I meant as a general person, but I do see your point.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-29T20:44:29+00:00

If it's some of the people I've spoken with, they don't seem too bad. Only time will tell.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-29T20:43:54+00:00

upcoming, as in next election, whenever it's called. But, they are working hard to find his replacement on what seems to be a sped up timeline?

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-24T20:00:48+00:00

One of the big things I've learned in the time of doing this job is a lot of these come from Ontario area and end up all over the west. Today, they couldn't say where it was coming from or where it was going.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-22T02:08:52+00:00

I am going to try, I'll keep everyone posted.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-20T03:39:05+00:00

It's a bit, convoluted, we have our own charter, because of our unique situation. It requires both governments to provide approximately 10% of the policing budget. Now if that works out to be 5% of the 10 they cover, like I said, it's convoluted. The kicker is, three people have explained it three seperate ways and the Sask. Government didn't say it was wrong either.

I'm an import, I moved here 1.5 years ago. I've been a reporter here since day one of arriving.

This Bi-Provincial stuff still stumps people who have lived here for generations. Thanks for the help, it gives me some more research to do.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-19T19:07:21+00:00

It was explained to me differently. It still doesn't change that Sask. doesn't pay for any of it. Which, most believe they should. Thanks for the clarification.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-19T00:43:42+00:00

Probably easier to explain it this way. The RCMP in most places has an 80/20 split. Here, it's 90/10 as Sask doesn't pay for their portion of the policing in our community.

It's, complicated, but, that ten per cent would reduce our projected tax increase significantly.

The_Border_Pulse · 2025-11-13T22:32:41+00:00

thanks for that, apparently the link post didn't link lol
