8:30 – As we head into another summer long weekend, The Hutterian Emergency Response Team (HEART) is hoping they do not get called for another recovery.  The team, based out of Manitoba, travels across the country to support search and rescue and recovery efforts when people go missing or drown in rivers and lakes.  Their dive team uses robot navigation with sonar equipment. Their most recent Saskatchewan call was for a 36-year-old man who drowned in Lake Diefenbaker on Canada Day when he jumped in to save a struggling child.  On July 22, HEART located his body.  Manuel Maendel is a co-pilot for HEART and he joins Mike to tell us more about their team and the recoveries they have performed.

LIVE: Manuel Maendel, HEART co-pilot.

10:00 – Earlier this month on a Wednesday evening, Cole Chorney and his wife who is 8-months pregnant had just finished a supper out in downtown Saskatoon when they decided to go for a walk and enjoy the nice summer evening.  They were just a few minutes into their walk when Cole says he was attacked by a man with a knife.  Cole says it’s concerning that such a beautiful place which is often full with families and children can be so dangerous and he joins Mike to share his story.

LIVE: Cole Chorney, attacked in downtown Saskatoon.

11:30 – It’s summer holiday time, the kids are out of school, we take time off work to head to the lake or cabin or pack up the camper for a road trip, but how many of us actually unplug during our holidays? Can you still be reached by your work email? Would you be brave enough to shut your phone off? A study done out of the Ontario branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association found that out of 2,598 employees who were able to do work remotely, only 27 per cent actually unplugged from their job while on vacation. Do you unplug? Give us a call at 1-877-332-8255.
