Not just the City of Weyburn but the rural areas too,” said Mayor Jeff Richards. It was overwhelming and fantastic to see the new facility, Richards added. “What excites me the most, is what the future looks like now we have our new hospital. We can be proud of the facility and start to use it.” “You look around the room at the families, businesses and municipalities that wanted to be a part of making the new hospital happen. As you walk through the facility, you definitely see it was worth the wait,” said Saskatchewan Minister of Health Jeremy Cockrill.” “It was amazing to see that our operational staff, our front-line health care workers were

REMEMBERING

Sabrina Kraft/Weyburn Review The Weyburn District Hospital Foundation offered tours of the new Weyburn hospital to donors, board members and other stakeholders on October 2. It was also announced during the event that the grand opening of the hospital will be held October 23, with November 1 the first day that patients will be welcomed. “We had an incredible turn-out, with all seats full for the event,” said Jeff Hayward, chair of the WDHF board. “It had been a long time in transition waiting for this vision to become a reality, so it is very special to have this event to bring all the donors together who have been on the journey for the last 20 years.” He added that the tour was very surreal and emotional. “It is just amazing to see everything that came together.

COCAINE SEIZED IN WEYBURN

As a result of an ongoing drug investigation, members of the Weyburn Police Service Drug Enforcement Unit, with assistance from the WPS Patrol Division, conducted a traffic stop on an SUV travelling on Highway 35 as it entered the City of Weyburn on October 2. Two individuals were located in the vehicle and arrested in relation to suspected cocaine and methamphetamine trafficking offences. Following the arrests, police obtained a search warrant for the SUV. A subsequent search resulted in the seizure of approximately 57 grams of cocaine, with an estimated street value of $9,500, three cellphones, $320 in Canadian currency, and drug-use paraphernalia. As a result of the investigation, the Weyburn Police Service has charged: Cayler Johnston-Hall, 27, of Weyburn, • Two counts of Trafficking of a Controlled Substance (cocaine and methamphetamine); • One count of Possession of Cocaine for the Purpose of Trafficking; and • One count of Possession of Property Obtained by Crime Over $5,000.

Communithon Month to mark milestone year for foundation

Sara Parks SaskToday.ca Weyburn Communithon has achieved charitable status, the society’s Chairperson Lindsay MankoBauche told Weyburn city council during their regular meeting on September 28. The Weyburn Communithon Foundation is now an independent entity after being connected for decades to the United Way. They achieved charitable status this year, said Manko-Bauche. Weyburn council proclaimed October as Communithon Month, marking the 45th annual fundraising

campaign for the Weyburn Communithon Foundation. Major Jeff Richards made the proclamation recognizing the organization’s more than four decades of support for local community agencies. “The majority of funds that are raised by the Communithon will stay in our community, by supporting our community agencies, which then invest those funds into their programs and services,” said Richards. This year’s 30-hour Communithon telethon’s theme is “Planting our Roots,” and will support eight local organizations. They include Big Brothers Big Sisters Weyburn, Canadian Mental Health Asso-

ciation, CNIB Foundation, Envision Counselling and Support Centre, Inclusion Weyburn, Southeast Advocates, Weyburn Care-a-Van and the Weyburn Humane Society. “Forty-five years this community has come together, year after year, generation after generation, to show what can happen when we decide that our community matters and that we’re going to take care of one another,” said Manko-Bauche. The event started in 1981 as Weyburn United Way, she said. “The people of Weyburn show up,” she said. “You show up for your neighbours. You show up for local organizations.

Thank you

You show up for the people in need.” Manko-Bauche said their new charitable status isn’t a departure from its history. “It isn’t about walking away from our history, it’s about planting our roots even deeper,” she said. “Our roots are in our volunteers who give up their time. In the businesses that sponsor and donate and

host fundraisers. In the performers that take the stage showcasing all of Weyburn’s culture. They’re in the people who have donated and supported to the cause year after year, and our roots are in the organizations that we support through Communithon for decades. The annual live event is televised and features local performers.

“Every dollar you give will help water our roots right here at home,” said Manko-Bauche. “But Communithon isn’t just about fundraising and the total. It’s about connection and when thousands of small acts come together, they become something that’s truly bigger than us.” The Communithon’s annual online auction is now live on their website.

F RO M T H E S I D E L I N E S : So where does Saskatchewan fit in?

Police respond to trespassing, breach of conditional sentence

The Weyburn Police Service responded to 98 calls for service during the week of September 27 to October 4, 2026. Notable Incidents Breach of Conditional Sentence Order/Mischief: Police responded to a report of mischief involving damage to a local hotel room on October 2. The investigation determined that an adult male had caused damage to hotel property. During the investigation, police also determined that the male was in breach of a condition of his Conditional Sentence Order (CSO) relating to his residence. The male was arrested and remanded into custody to appear before a judge at a later date. Mischief: Police received a complaint of damage to windows at Barber Motors on October 3. The windows appeared to have been broken by rocks. The investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with information regarding this incident is encouraged to contact the Weyburn Police Service. E-Bike Safety and Enforcement: Over the past week, the Weyburn Police Service received numerous complaints regarding the operation of e-bikes within the community. Concerns included riders travelling at excessive speeds, operating e-bikes in an erratic or unsafe manner, and riding on sidewalks. The Weyburn Police Service reminds ebike riders that they are required to follow the applicable rules of the road and operate their e-bikes in a safe and responsible manner. Riders should remain aware of motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians and ensure their actions do not create a hazard for themselves or others. Riders are also reminded that e-bikes must be operated by a person who is at least 14 years of age. Police will continue to monitor these con-

cerns. If unsafe or unlawful operation continues, officers may take enforcement action, including the issuance of tickets. The Weyburn Police Service encourages all e-bike users to familiarize themselves with the rules that apply to their e-bike and to ride responsibly. Our goal is to keep Weyburn’s roadways and pathways safe for everyone. Fire/Railway Trespassing: Police received a report on October 2 of individuals on the railway tracks near McDonald’s who had reportedly started a fire. Upon arrival, officers observed three adult males fleeing the area. Officers pursued the individuals on foot and located two males hiding in long grass. The third male was located and arrested on the railway tracks. All three were found to be intoxicated. In consultation with CP Police, all three males were issued tickets for trespassing and were held in police cells until sober. The fire, which involved railway ties, was contained with the assistance of the Weyburn Fire Department. The Weyburn Police Service also responded to numerous traffic collisions, Report Impaired Drivers (RID) complaints, and mental health-related calls for service. Members attended and mediated several domestic disturbances involving individuals residing in the same household, as well as disputes between neighbors. These incidents were resolved without criminal charges. Anyone with information regarding these incidents, or any other matter of a criminal nature, is encouraged to contact the Weyburn Police Service at (306) 848-3250, the local RCMP Detachment at 310-RCMP (7267), or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Norm Park/ SaskToday.ca I’m convinced after several years of habitation in this province that Saskatchewan’s people have strong, determined mindsets. The fact that our province can be a little erratic at times, doesn’t bother me at all and hopefully doesn’t bother you too much either. That’s what makes us unique in the Canadian complex. And yes, there can be slap back on that opening statement. Some believe Saskatchewan wants to be Alberta lite … but that, I believe, is off the negotiation table. For one thing, we’re not ready to leave Canada and hopefully Alberta residents aren’t either. They don’t deserve that world of hurt. Just ask Britain how Brexit turned out. Alberta has lots of oil and two big national parks. We need them in the family. Saskatchewan has quite a bit of oil plus uranium and potash and lots of agriculture and ranching products. Alberta has ranching and some significant farming, mostly corporate, while Saskatchewan has corporate farms as well, but many of them are family corporations, not just big business models held by investors in Toronto, Tulsa or Texas. Saskatchewan has grown slowly and maybe not always carefully, but that makes it that much more interesting. Over our growth periods we have found it worthwhile to have Crown corporations do some heavy lifting, especially in the early days when no private or other public bodies were interested in providing telephone, electrical power or natural gas services to outlying communities. So the powers that were in place in Regina, decided to do those jobs and they did it well and now they can contribute to the overall well being with profits, not losses … usually. Saskatchewan also found it to be beneficial to start merging certain service structures, so we formed centralized services and then took other steps to develop even larger circles of regional efficacy in areas such as agriculture, water security, environmental and social services, health, education, and public libraries. Again, efficiency was found by reducing scattered administration and governance bodies while growing larger communities with more centralized services. Of course there have been a couple of contradictions to that movement. One path was the provincial governing body itself. I mean does Saskatchewan really require 61 people in legislative seats? We knew of such things as gerrymandering boundary lines to make things lean in favour of a ruling party, but then they started a new process that included adding legislative seats, mostly in the rural areas to accommodate the government leanings at the time. No need to re-work existing constituencies, just add more of them in friendly territory. That makes sense if you’re a politician. So government became larger and much more expensive while regional governing and administrative bodies were reduced. One area where mergers haven’t hap-

pened is in our world of rural municipal governance. I believe at least two major efforts have been made over the past 40 years to meld the nearly 300 SARM governance models into more centralized bodies and that idea has been soundly rejected by the rural populations. I can recall sitting in on meetings where rural amalgamation ideas were expounded and then rejected. The rural bodies liked the idea of staying small, concise and in touch with the realities of what their neighbours wanted, needed and what they could get. Maybe these champions of small governance bodies with a total population of just under 177,000 knew something about responsibilities at a very local level that the rest of us needed to learn. So, it seems the idea of fewer but larger rural municipal governments is not going to be a Saskatchewan thing anytime soon. I’m thinking that’s where our unique status shows up in spades and it’s not necessarily negative. I also sat at media tables when local school and health boards made difficult decisions to amalgamate to form larger, hopefully more efficient models to get things done. These were carried out in two significant steps. First centralization and then a more expansive expansion into regional bodies and these moves did not come without emotional moments. I viewed board members actually weeping as they raised hands to support governance motions to close schools and hospitals in support of larger, hopefully more effective models believing in the long run it was the right thing to do to move forward. Of course there were competitions within these central and regional bodies to decide where their command centres were to be located. The decision however, became obvious. The central offices were to be determined by their proximity to Regina. Easy eh? Of course there had to be a few exceptions but for the most part, that’s what happened and no major arguments erupted. After all, if a regional body was going to be visited by government personnel or visa versa, it’s just more efficient to have highway travel time reduced to one hour rather than two to five hours. So that solved the regional head office scenarios. Except of course for rural municipal governance. They still enjoy their own model of getting together while getting along in small mass fashion. And yes, we still have issues with water (but not shipping ports) rail service, highways, no scheduled bus service, real old major hospitals in our two big cities and a trio of universities, one of them focused on Indigenous culture and education. Not bad really in the overall picture. Then we can harken back to that wonderful old song that was created to celebrate our 50th anniversary. I believe two lines of the lyrics said it best: “We love your fields of golden grain, here with you our hearts remain.” Maybe that says it all. Time will tell and we’re used to waiting for stuff, and we can stay busy while the several dozens of legislative brain trusts work on their (and our) issues.

OCTOBER 4-10, 2026 Safe Charging Is a Charge into Fire Safety ™ Safe charging means making smart choices every time you plug in. Everyday charging habits can help prevent lithium-ion battery fires. Safe charging is a SUPERPOWER!

USE YOUR CHARGING SUPERPOWERS CHEAP CHARGER? DON’T CHANCE IT.

FULLY CHARGED? TIME TO UNPLUG.

Use the cord and charger that came with your device or one approved by the manufacturer.

Unplug your device when it is fully charged. Why it matters: Leaving a device plugged in can increase heat and stress on the battery.

Why it matters: Using the wrong charger can damage the battery and increase the chance of fire. Cheap or off-brand chargers may not meet important safety standards.

FOR TOOLS AND RIDES, CHARGE OUTSIDE. Charge large items like e-bikes, scooters, and power tools outside when possible. Do not block exits when charging.

SOFT SURFACE? HARD PASS. Charge on a hard, flat surface like a table, desk, or bare floor.

Why it matters:These batteries are larger and store more energy. Fires can grow quickly if the battery fails.

Why it matters: Devices and chargers create heat during normal charging. Soft surfaces like beds, pillows, and couches can trap heat and block airflow, which can cause a battery to overheat.

OUT OF SIGHT? NOT IN FLIGHT. When on a plane, keep devices where you can see them while charging. Do not charge e-cigarettes or vapes on the plane. Tell a flight attendant if you notice a problem with your device, such as if it feels very hot, starts to swell, is smoking, or has a strange smell.

FEELS HOT? STOP USING IT. Stop using your device if it feels very hot, starts to swell, smells strange, leaks, smokes, or makes popping or hissing sounds. Why it matters: A damaged battery can overheat and start a fire.

Why it matters: If a battery overheats or fails, it is important for the flight crew to be able to respond quickly.

— Working smoke alarms and a home fire escape plan can help make a life-saving difference. —

Red Wings snap losing streak, win 9-5 vs Terriers

Benny Walchuk SaskToday.ca The Weyburn Red Wings snapped a two-game losing streak on October 4, exploding for five goals in the second period on their way to a 9-5 victory over the Yorkton Terriers. It was a nightmare start for Yorkton, as Trennen Redlick opened the scoring just 1:48 into the game, beating Brady Low on a nice backhand finish. The Red Wings then added three more goals over a span of just 6:06, with Aidan Mohan, Callas Pierce and Redlick finding the net to make it 4-0. Yorkton finally got on the board late in the opening frame. With just 22 seconds left, Alex Morrison buried a rebound past Ethan Berard for his fourth goal of the season and third straight game with a goal. The Terriers carried that momentum into the second. Evan Hymovitch tipped home his first career SJHL goal to cut the deficit to 4-2, and just over three minutes later, Mathys Morrissette scored his fourth of the season, going between the legs and over Berard’s shoulder to make it a onegoal game. But Weyburn answered on back-to-back power plays, with Mohan and Jace Harder scoring just four minutes apart to restore the three-goal cushion.

Harder added his second of the night later in the period, followed by another from Pierce, making it 8-3. Tyson Medernach answered for Yorkton with 1:32 left in the frame to make it 8-4 after 40 minutes. Kiran Fedun scored his first SJHL goal early in the third to make it 9-4, finishing off a pass from Ridley Ringor, who picked up his third assist of the night. Hymovitch added his second of the game with just 26 seconds remaining to round out the scoring. Berard stopped 35 of 40 shots to earn his third win of the season. Low made his SJHL debut for the Terriers, allowing three goals on nine shots before giving way to Callum Creig. Creig stopped 18 of 23 before Low returned for the third period, allowing one more goal on nine shots. The loss drops Yorkton to 3-2-and-1 on the season, while Weyburn improves to 4-3 and moves into a tie with Melville for first place in the Bunge Division. The Terriers return to action Friday night when they host the Melville Millionaires to open a homeand-home series. Weyburn begins a busy stretch September 30 in Melfort before heading to La Ronge for back-to-back games on October 2 and October 3.

Submitted Thee WCS Eagles hosted the Swift Current Colts on October 2 in the final home game of the regular season for the Eagles football team. The Colts jumped out to an early lead taking the opening kickoff to the house. The Eagles fought back to tie the game later in the first quarter, but the Colts would answer and take a 14-7 lead into

half time. The Colts widened their lead in the third quarter but on the ensuing kickoff Cole Payak took the kickoff to the endzone and just like that the game lead was only seventh. In the fourth quarter the Colts found a groove and scored two more times and held the eagles off the board with the final score as 3414. The Eagles raised funds for Hunter Gronick dur-

The Sharks tied up the game at 16:30, with Mickenzie Petford responding for Weyburn on a short-handed goal at 11:04, assisted by Kaley Allard. Battleford scored with 19 seconds left in the period to tie up the game again. The Sharks dominated the third period, with a goal at 19:47 and their fourth of

the night at 15:14. Tila Boyd was in net for the Gold Wings and saved 30 out of 34 shots on net. The Sharks won 4-3 in overtime during the October 4 game held at Battleford Arena. Once again, Weyburn found the back of the net first, with Essa Hurford scoring at 14:20, assisted by Sage Johns and Taelah Schnurr. Battleford tied the game with 2:16 left on the

Celebrating Local Agriculture Saskatchewan crop pests could be back for more in 2027

Photo courtesy of Bill Allen Photography

Ryan Young SaskToday.ca Some pests were more prevalent in Saskatchewan compared to others this season, according to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture’s Provincial Insect and Vertebrate Pest Management Specialist. Dr. James Tansey talked about the prevalence of cabbage seedpod weevil, pea leaf weevil, grasshoppers, bertha army worms, and aphids in Saskatchewan fields. His comments were made in advance of the 2026 surveys, which are usually released in November. Starting with the bertha army worm, Tansey noted there were outbreaks around Saskatoon, Outlook and an area extending west towards the Alberta boundary. There were also reports

of bertha army worms in parts of the south, including the southeast, and northeast of Saskatchewan. Tansey said outbreaks typically last two to three years and with this year being the second outbreak, he expects a third outbreak for 2027. “We will, of course, continue to monitor their populations, but we expect that outbreak to terminate within the next year.” What usually controls the population of bertha army worm is a disease called baculovirus, he said. “So for those who’ve been in a canola field and you’ve seen those hanging bags of yuck, that is what happens to a birth armyworm after it’s been infected with this baculovirus. It causes what’s called puddling...so it ac-

tually liquefies the inside of the birth armyworm caterpillar, and when that bag bursts, of course, it’s going to rain down virus particles onto the leaves where these can be consumed by other birth armyworm...and this is what finally brings outbreaks to an end.” He believes the bertha army worms have reached peak emergence. As for what can be done in the future, he recommended monitoring fields to determine what the field-wide population is, but admitted it is labour intensive. “So what needs to occur is you actually go into the field, mark out a meter by a meter, knock all the insects off the plants, because they do tend to fall off the plants, and are primarily night active. So they’re going to be

down in the leaf litter and count them up. And you need to pick through the leaf litter to determine how many are there, and then you determine the number per square meter based on that. Don’t ever just look at one site and make an evaluation. Look at multiple samples at each individual site. And look at at least five sites in a field to determine what your fieldwide population is.” Canola and lentils were the main targets for bertha army worms. Aphids Pea aphids have been growing over the last two to three years, Tansey said, and prefer pulse crops such as field peas and lentils, especially the latter during the flowering and early pod stage of development. He notes pea aphids are

now showing resistance to Group 3 insecticides. While there are other insecticide groups registered to control aphids, “they are a little bit more expensive, and there can be some trade considerations associated with that,” using green lentil exports to Europe as an example. “There’s an active ingredient called flonicamid, and the Europeans have expressed some concerns about that on lentils, and that could have a trade impact,” Tansey said. According to the 2026 Keep it Clean Product Advisory - an initiative between the Canola Council of Canada, Cereals Canada, Pulse Canada, and the Prairie Oat Growers Association - it listed flonicamid under the “Be informed” category for use on green lentils as “treated green

lentils may not be accepted by some grain buyers.” Another reason is maximum residue limit uncertainties in the European Union. The Keep it Clean initiative advises producers to consult with their grain buyer before using flonicamid on green lentils and so does Tansey, who goes a step further to recommend checking what is permitted and what trade restrictions are associated with where a crop is going worldwide. While pea aphids can’t do more damage to lentils since the crop is being harvested, Tansey said the winged adult aphids will move to fababeans. He adds there have been issues with cereal aphids, but cereal crops are past the point of being influenced by aphids.

Weyburn Review

Favourable weather helped southwest producers make significant harvest progress in the past week.

Southeast producers make significant harvest progress

Favourable weather, including warm temperatures and limited precipitation, helped producers make significant harvest progress according to the crop report for the period of September 22 to 28, bringing the southeast region to 57 per cent complete, which is behind the five-year and 10-year averages of 90 and 86 per cent, respectively. Limited precipitation was recorded across the region during the past reporting period, with the Mount Pleasant area recording 15 millimetres (mm) and the Martin region recording 12 mm. Dry conditions persisted in many areas, resulting in a slight decrease in reported topsoil moisture conditions. Cropland topsoil moisture is: 28 per cent surplus; 71 per cent adequate; and

one per cent short. Hayland topsoil moisture is: 22 per cent surplus; 76 per cent adequate; and two per cent short. Pasture topsoil moisture is: 18 per cent surplus; 79 per cent adequate; and three per cent short. Harvest progress is relatively consistent throughout the region, as warm, dry conditions have allowed producers to continue harvest operations. Winter cereals harvested: Fall rye: 100 per cent; and Winter wheat: 100 per cent. Oilseeds harvested: Mustard: 71 per cent; Canola: 48 per cent; Soybeans: 16 per cent; and Flax: 20 per cent. Spring cereals harvested: Triticale: 100 per cent; Barley: 80 per cent; Durum: 71 per cent; Oats: 61 per cent; Spring wheat:

51 per cent; and Canary seed: 62 per cent. Pulses harvested: Lentils: 95 per cent; Field peas: 95 per cent; and Chickpeas: 65 per cent. Livestock water quality is not an immediate concern for producers in the region, with only 8 per cent reporting concerns. For on-farm surface water supplies, 6 per cent reported moderate shortages, 1 per cent reported anticipated shortages and 93 per cent reported no shortages occurring or anticipated. Crop damage reported this week was mainly due to high winds and flooding, but it was generally minor. Producers who have finished harvest are now concentrating on fall field work, such as applying fertilizer after harvest, tillage and other field preparations.

#CelebrateAg encourages conversations during Agriculture Week

SaskToday Saskatchewan is celebrating Agriculture Week from October 4 to 10, recognizing the province’s farming and food sector and the people and innovations that drive it. “Agriculture is a way of life, driven by the hard work, innovation and resilience of those who produce our food,” Agriculture Minister David Marit said. “Agriculture Week is an opportunity to recognize farmers, ranchers and agri-businesses for their contributions at home and globally.” Each year, this week brings together those in the agriculture industry and consumers to share stories, foster understanding and highlight the strength and

resilience of the agricultural community. The theme #CelebrateAg encourages conversations about where food comes from and the people behind it. Through a mix of online campaigns, community events and activities, Agriculture Week aims to bridge the gap between producers and consumers, according to Sask. Agriculture. “Saskatchewan farmers and ranchers work hard every day to grow safe, nutritious food for people here and around the world,” Farm & Food Care Executive Director Clinton Monchuk said. “Agriculture Week is a chance to have honest conversations with consumers about how food is produced and to really

celebrate the people and food from this amazing industry.” To celebrate agriculture in all its facets throughout the province, FFC SK hosts an online photo con-

test throughout the month of October. The contest is open to residents of Saskatchewan. We’re looking for the photos that warm your heart–the ones that show why farming and food

is so important to all of us. Get involved in Agriculture Week by posting with the hashtag #CelebrateAg, downloading and sharing Agriculture Week graphics and taking part in the

month-long Farm & Food Care photo contest. For more information about Agriculture Week initiatives, visit: Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan #CelebrateAg webpage.

Proposed bylaw to renew rural fire policy

Sara Parks SaskToday.ca Weyburn city council gave first reading to a Rural Fire and Rescue Services Policy bylaw renewing the city’s agreement with surrounding rural municipalities. City Manager Mathew Warren presented the proposed amendments to council during the September 28 meeting, saying the changes are mostly administrative and financial rather than a change in service delivery, adding it’s just updating the agreements. The city has fire and rescue agreements with the RM of Weyburn at 100 per cent, the RM of Griffin at 25 per cent, and the RMs of Souris Valley and Lomond at 50 per cent each. Rescue only agreements are in place with the RM of Brokenshell at 50 per cent, and the RMS of Lake Alma and Wellington at 100 per cent. The proposed bylaw sets the terms for all municipalities for the next five years. They are required to provide their annual payment Jan. 15 each year. The annual levy formula for all agreements remains the same and includes a three

per cent increase each year. There are additional fees for certain services, including rescue service, response to dangerous good incidents, heavy rescue or disasters based on the SGI productive rate per hour, fire investigations at $100 per hour plus mileage, fire inspections at $100 per hour plus mileage, fire prevention class visits at $80 plus mileage, mileage at $0.55 per kiliometre, and local assistant fees at $1,270. The fees are subject to the addition of GST The additional fees, except the annual levy, don’t include GST or other applicable taxes. Warren said the new agreements would bring in about $184,400 in the first year, up from the current $179,000. This is an increase of about $5,000 to $6,000 a year. “We want to continue to provide those services and provide those supports to our RMs as much as we can.” Mayor Jeff Richards asked for confirmation there would be no change in service provision and just updated agreements. Warren said that was correct.

Pharmacists can now access EDS medications

SaskToday Participating community pharmacists can now submit online requests for select Exception Drug Status (EDS) medications on behalf of eligible patients. According to Sask. Health, the online process will reduce the administrative workload for health care professionals and help eligible patients receive coverage decisions faster. Exception Drug Status is a Saskatchewan program that provides coverage for certain prescription drugs when a patient meets established clinical and program criteria. EDS requests may be submitted by physicians, nurse practitioners and pharmacists on behalf of eligible patients. Patients cannot submit EDS requests directly. The online application was introduced at 10 community pharmacies in August. Up to 50 community pharmacies are expected to participate this fall, depending on pharmacy readiness, training and im-

plementation requirements. “LAEA has been very helpful for our pharmacy so far,” Hill Avenue Drugs Pharmacy Owner and Manager Gavin Bush said. “Being able to get medications approved for coverage in near-real time, especially on evenings and weekends when the Saskatchewan Drug Plan is closed, has saved us a lot of time and energy in the pharmacy. It helps out patients as well by being able to guarantee coverage immediately. We look forward to continued use and hopefully expansion in the future.” Expanding the online application to additional community pharmacies will help reduce delays in coverage decisions for eligible drugs and support more timely access to medications, says Sask. Health. The expansion will continue in phases, with the long-term goal of making the online application available in hospitals, primary care centres and community pharmacies across Saskatchewan.
