8:30 – A “General Lee” replica from the Dukes of Hazzard built in Parkside, Saskatchewan has been at the centre of much controversy this week. Premier Moe Tweeted a photo of the car, which was set to be auctioned to benefit the CMHA, creating a big debate around the Confederate flag featured on the roof of the classic car’s paint job. After a week in the spotlight online, the Parkside Community Club say they’ve found a solution that should leave everyone happy. Club Spokesperson Kerry Peterson joins John now to explain.

10:00 – New mental health supports are available for first responders in Saskatchewan, thanks to a new website launched by WorkSafe in partnership with the Saskatchewan First Responders’ Mental Health Committee. The website features resources such as 24/7 confidential crisis centres, support groups, self-care education, and critical incident response strategies. Mental health for first responders is often a big concern, as roughly 45 per cent of first responders screened positive for symptoms of an operational stress injury in a 2017 Canadian study. Sask. First Responders Mental Health Committee Co-Chair Jeff Reeder joins John now to talk about the importance of mental health for first responders and his own battle with PTSD.
