There's usually a painful grimace when we spot gas signs reading $1.36 a litre in Saskatchewan.

Now, the federal government claims they'll be investigating those high prices through a parliamentary committee. Industry Minister Tony Clement says he'll be grilling distributors and retailers on their pricing methods.

But the Ruth Robinson, from the Consumer Association of Saskastchewan, says this isn't the first time the government has looked into pricing - and found nothing wrong.

It appears as though the rise in gas prices has made its way to Saskatchewan.

News Talk Radio has been tipped off that prices in Regina have gone from 1.31 to 1.36. Saskatoon prices are showing a jump from 1.32 to 1.37.

Regina's RCMP training academy got an unexpected visitor shortly after dinnertime Friday when a small plane landed on their driving course.

The pilot said there was a mechanical issue and that he had to land in the area where RCMP officers train to drive police cars.

The fire department was called in around 6:30 p.m., but no one was hurt.

It might be a little harder to get your fishing license at a store this long weekend.

Some businesses have decided not to sell them anymore since the system has gone online. Pokey's Tackle Shop made that decision after estimating it would take $1600 for them to purchase the equipment to do it. Owner Greg Prokopetz says he only makes $1 on each license sold at $30 each.

"Other government agencies that sell licenses get all that equipment supplied to them," he said.

"Plus they get double what we do to sell it."

More details have emerged about the man who allegedly swindled two dozen potential Saskatoon renters out of $1,100 each last month through an online kijiji rental scam.

Jason Hartlenm, 33, was taken into custody by Regina police Thursday following a Canada-wide warrant for his arrest. He faces multiple charges of fraud after he took damage deposits from 25 would-be renters on an apartment he didn't own.

Of the 25 files, 14 have been investigated and 17 fraud charges have been laid so far, with more likely to come.

A full list of the changes now in place as follows:

You might see more beer carts out on your local golf course from now on. That's one of the first changes to liquor regulations being made this week in Saskatchewan.

The government promised 77 changes would be made this year to modernize SLGA policies, altering a wide range of cumbersome regulations and legislative policy that was flagged by a red tape reduction committee.

 Despite the province bringing four private liquor stores into Saskatchewan, Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD) feels the province's distribution system works in the best way to keep people safe.

In the newly-updated Alcohol Policy Paper, MADD Canada supports provincial liquor boards, saying a monopoly system is the best way of selling and marketing alcohol.

Regina Mayor Michael Fougere is pledging that action will be taken after this week's two day housing summit.

Two days of talks presented local politicians, developers, and builders with a host of new ideas to consider to improve Regina's abysmal one per cent rental housing vacancy rate. They ranged from suggestions for different housing forms, like the use of pocket suites and shipping container units, to forming different kinds of partnerships with charitable organizations and the private sector.

With police in Ontario trying to figure out why exactly Tim Bosma was killed after men came to test drive a truck he posted for sale online, others are considering how to stay safe when creating and responding to such online advertising.
