Cheers:
Cheers to SaskEnergy for beautifying the area near 7-11 in north-central Estevan. The grass that’s now in place looks great.
Cheers to the members of the Estevan Road Runners club for their efforts to stay fit and accept a challenge during the pandemic.
Cheers to having a female tackle football team in Estevan. The girls deserve to have the chance to play against girls, just like the boys play versus boys.
Cheers to the Souris Valley Antique Association and the Estevan Car Club for the parade that was held in Midale recently. People loved seeing all of the old tractors and vehicles rolling through the town.
Cheers to Estevan Minor Baseball for still having a season this year, despite all of the challenges caused by COVID-19. It was weird seeing the players not in the dugouts.
Cheers to seeing ice installed at Affinity Place for the upcoming hockey season. It also means there’s a nice, cool place to be indoors.
Cheers to Kelly at Sobey’s for helping out the handicapped with groceries to their vehicle.
Jeers:
Jeers to businesses that are mandating the use of face masks in order to shop or work there. Since when do businesses have the right to infringe on our human rights and freedom of choice?
Jeers to the drivers who won’t use their signal lights before turning, or who wait they’re five feet before the turn. It creates a hazard for the rest of us.
Jeers to those who travel below the speed limit when using the left hand lane on Highway 39 between Estevan and Bienfait. Even if you’re going to turn left onto Highway 18 to head towards Bienfait, that’s not a reason for you be in the inside lane for several kilometres before the turn.
Jeers to the Hospital Board for not having enough staff for the lab. It takes a week for someone to answer the phone to be able to make an appointment for lab work.
Jeers to employers who do not treat their employees with respect.
