Brian Crossman: Three hundred and sixty-four days. The last year in helping Ukrainian refugees come to Saskatchewan
We have been to the airport in the dead of night, and having total strangers trusting you to take them, and their most precious of cargo, their children, on a two hour ride to Estevan. That alone is a leap of faith. But they are not strangers for long. We have witnessed big smiles, lots of tears, and the incredible resilience of adults and children as they settle in to their new surroundings to not only survive, but thrive.
Brian Zinchuk: How many nuclear reactors, wind turbines, or solar panels would Saskatchewan have needed last week? How about on Feb. 23?
To completely replace existing coal and natural gas power generation with enough wind generation capacity to account for days like Feb. 23, 2023, you would need to build 44,933 wind turbines covering 18.7 per cent of Saskatchewan south of the treeline.

Brian Zinchuk: Forty billion in oilpatch CAPEX sounds great, until you realize it’s half of what was spent in 2014
Back in the lofty, pre-Justin Trudeau government days of 2014, back when oil was booming, pipelines were planned to east and west coasts, and Alberta and Saskatchewan were swimming in money, around $81 billion was spent in capital expenditures (CAPEX) in the Canadian petroleum industry. In Alberta, alone, the number topped $60 billion. And British Columbia and Saskatchewan got their share, too. Even Manitoba was seeing investment.
On March 1, the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) forecast CAPEX of $40 billion, which is just about double the disaster year of 2020, but half of 2014. And that’s before #justinflation. What would it be if we had a federal government supportive of the industry, instead of trying to make it disappear?
