Snowbirds return home as part of Operation Inspiration Fly-over of Moose Jaw leads to short break before continuing cross-Canada tour Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express
Even though we here in Moose Jaw get a chance to see them far more often than most, it’s always an event when the Snowbirds perform a flyover of Canada’s Most Notorious City. That’s why on the afternoon of Tuesday, May 12, there were plenty of folks looking to the skies to catch the 431 Air Demonstration Squadron’s latest flyover as they returned home for a short break from their Operation Inspiration cross-Canada tour. The tour – which began on May 3 in Saint John, N.B. and continued through the Atlantic provinces, Quebec, Ontario and Manitoba since – is aimed at boosting spirits during the COVID-19 pandemic and has drawn rave reviews on social media from communities that rarely, if ever, get a chance to see the Snowbirds in person. The team arrived over Moose Jaw around 1:45 p.m. and perform a handful of passes over the city in their signature nine-jet formation before landing at 15 Wing. After day and a half with their families, the team was back in the air on May 14, flying to Regina before heading north to Saskatoon and then to Cold Lake, Alta. as their tour took them through northern Alberta and B.C. After swinging down the west coast, the Snowbirds will make the return home through southern communities before bringing Operation Inspiration to a close. Be sure to follow the Snowbirds on Twitter at @CFSnowbirds for the latest information on the tour and everything happening with the team.

Emergency support program for province’s small businesses extended Saskatchewan Small Business Emergency Payment will now run through the month of May as COVID-19 crisis continues Moose Jaw Express Staff
The Government of Saskatchewan’s lifeline to small business in the province during the COVID-19 pandemic has been extended. The Saskatchewan Small Business Emergency Payment program has moved into the month of May for businesses that are required to remain closed or substantially curtail operations after May 19, 2020. “While the Re-Open Saskatchewan plan is now underway, we are still very much dealing with the global COVID-19 pandemic, so we need to be methodical in how we implement each phase of the plan in our province,” said Trade and Export Development minister Jeremy Harrison in a press release. “We want to be flexible and responsive with the program and make sure we provide timely support for businesses so they can utilize this funding where it will provide the most benefit for them. We will continue working closely with our business community on this, and other measures, right through each critical

phase of the Re-Open Saskatchewan plan.” Launched on April 12, the SSBEP is a $50 million program providing financial support to small and medium businesses affected by COVID-19. Businesses will not need to re-apply if they have previously been accepted, and those that qualify will automatically receive a second payment after May 19. Payments are based on 15 per cent of a business’s monthly sales revenue in either April 2019 or February 2020, with businesses able to select either month to calculate their payment. The maximum payment is $5,000 per business per eligibility period. Payments can be used for any purpose, including paying fixed costs or expenditures related to re-opening the business following the pandemic.
