  • Yes, this could happen to you

    One of the worst human afflictions is the “It'll never happen to me” syndrome.
    Maybe this condition is behind the Statistics Canada reported 121 deaths from impaired driving in 2011.
    That number is the lowest it's been in 25 years but still, 121 people died needlessly.

  • Firefighters awarded service medals

    Two Humboldt firefighters have been recognized for more than 25 years of dedicated service.
    Firefighter James Huber and former deputy chief Francis Kunz were presented with the Saskatchewan Protective Services Medal on May 30.

  • Lucien Lake is stepping out of Humboldt's shadows and into the spotlight.
