Upcoming winter weather
We are asking residents to please remove all personal items/vehicles/boat trailers/campers, etc. from along the side of the roadway over the weekend. The prediction is for a heavy snowstorm and we would ask for your help with the snow removal by ensuring the streets and ditches are obstacle free for the snow blower.

1. Acceptable Voter Identification
The purpose of the voter ID requirements is to maintain the integrity of local election processes. Your name and address must appear in some form on your voter identification documents. Bringing proper identification will ensure your voice is heard and will help your local election run as smoothly as possible.
Photo ID – Your BEST option to take to the polls
Acceptable photo identification is ID that is government-issued, valid and has your photo, name and address. If your identification does not meet these criteria, it will not be recognized as an acceptable form of photo identification.
Examples include:
a valid Saskatchewan driver's licence;
a valid Saskatchewan ID card issued by SGI or any motor licence issuer (available for $10 or free for seniors); or
any other valid government-issued photo ID issued by a Canadian government whether federal, provincial or municipal, or an agency of that government, so long as it includes your name and address.
For a complete list of acceptable identification, view Appendix D
A Canadian passport is not an acceptable form of photo identification because it does not contain your address. However, a Canadian passport can be used as identification if paired with another document that has your name and address on it.
Non-Photo ID options
If you don't have photo identification and are unable to obtain photo-ID before Election Day, you can present two other pieces of information, as long as both contain your name and at least one contains your address.
Examples include:
