SaskEnergy employees Brittany Kelm, Jamie Kilkenny and Dana Kostyk — all who work in engineering and technology roles — are leading the program. The goal of...

Vegetation management may sound like a fancy way to describe mowing your lawn and pulling weeds. But, at SaskEnergy, it’s an important part of maintaining safety at our facilities across Saskatchewan! “Overgrown vegetation can create a safety issue if left unaddressed,” says Sheena Nabozniak, Manager of Damage Prevention. “It can impact the accessibility of our facilities. This can cause challenges during regular maintenance work as well as in the event of an emergency.” Keeping vegetation neat and tidy also helps reduce fire hazards, improve site security, and meet regulatory and...

Jim and Linda Dickenson decorate their heritage home to draw people from across Regina to be spooked there on Halloween night. But they were the ones to get a serious scare at home one summer evening. A colourless, odourless, and tasteless poison was drifting up from their basement and lingering near their second-floor bedroom, one that, over time, could send them to hospital — or even worse. Jim’s phone rang, surprising them while they watched a loud action movie. They were up on the third floor of their home that warm, dark evening. Their security company was calling. A presence had been...

We’ve teamed up with the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) and Technical Safety Authority of Saskatchewan (TSASK) to let you know about the crucial need for carbon monoxide (CO) alarms. Why? Because having a working CO alarm in your home could save your life, and the lives of those you love. Last year, SaskEnergy responded to over 1,500 CO calls. With a CO alarm, you will have early warning protection against the dangers of the invisible, odourless gas that is often referred to as the "silent killer." 1. You need them (it’s the law) “CO alarms are not just a smart choice, but a...

In the early '90s, SaskEnergy signed a small contract for office cleaning with a community organization in Saskatoon. Thirty years later, that work has grown into an ongoing partnership that benefits everyone involved. Cosmopolitan Industries (Cosmo) is a community support program dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for adults with intellectual disabilities. Through its work programs, Cosmo provides secure shredding, recycling and business services. More than 400 participants take part in Cosmo’s various programs. This includes work opportunities on site at the Cosmo facility. “Cosmo...

Every day, the Regina Food Bank helps about 500 families — and that number keeps growing. During the holiday season, the need is even greater, making extra help from volunteers essential. Recently, two groups of SaskEnergy employees spent time at the Food Bank, sorting and organizing food donations. For them, it was a chance to give back to the community and strengthen team connections. “The biggest takeaway for me was knowing that our efforts are directly helping those in our community. It felt good knowing that our small act of kindness was making a big difference to those in need,” says...

In late November, Grade 3 students at St. Catherine School in Regina received a surprise that will shape their learning for years to come — a new mini classroom library. The excitement was immediate as students eagerly explored the fresh collection of books, flipping through pages and sharing discoveries with friends. For Jeanna Kozan, a SaskEnergy employee who visited the school during the delivery, one moment in particular stood out. “One of the children we met was very quiet and shy at first,” Jeanna says. “But as soon as he found a book that interested him, he grabbed it, sat down, and...

First Nations artists Tim Neal and Jade Roberts have shared their talent and expertise with SaskEnergy through two recent projects. Their artwork will appear across Saskatchewan on SaskEnergy billboards, advertisements, social media and at events. We are proud to showcase their work while we connect with Indigenous communities. Tim’s designs include a new version of SaskEnergy’s logo and other images. These show scenes from nature aligned with the sacred elements — fire, water, earth and air. “Having an actual designer or the artwork being done by First Nations provides a ton of cultural...

On June 6, residents, volunteers and community partners came together in Regina’s North Central neighbourhood to create a cleaner, safer place to call home. The annual North Central Community Cleanup, organized by the North Central Community Association (NCCA), helps remove waste and debris from neighbourhood alleys and properties. The goal is to make the area safer and more welcoming — especially for families and children heading into the summer months. “This event is something I never hesitate to be a part of because I truly believe everyone deserves to live in a safe and clean environment —...

What better time to recognize Saskatchewan contractors who are dedicated to safe digging practices than during Dig Safe Month? This April, SaskEnergy launched the Safe Digging Excellence Award to recognize and celebrate contractors who reduce the risk of damage to underground infrastructure by following safe digging practices. In the first year of the award, SaskEnergy recognized three Saskatchewan businesses that make safe digging a focus on every job site — Parkland Contracting and Vac Services (Yorkton), Yaremy Screw Piles (Melfort) and Jerry Mainil Limited (Weyburn). {"preview_thumbnail":"...
