Saskatoon History πŸ’Ύ Saskatoon has some weird history. I made a flipbook about it.

0 Upvotes

Yesterday a colleague asked about where I live, so I sent them Saskatoon’s Wikipedia page. Perfectly useful, but afterward I thought: there’s probably a more interesting way to introduce someone to this place.

So I put together a little illustrated history flipbook. Shipwrecks, riverbank ski jumping, the Bessborough sitting empty, etc.

Flip through it here

Full disclosure: the writing, illustrations and code were made with AI, with me directing and revising it. I checked the historical claims against sources linked in the book, though corrections are welcome. The pictures are illustrations, not archival images.

For me, this was a fun way to make something about our city that I could share without spending weeks building it. Figured some people here might enjoy it too.

Question ❔ Polygots in Saskatoon?

2 Upvotes

Hey y'all, I was curious about the Polyglot scene in the city or if there is any. I tried looking it up online and didnt find much information. Is there a polygot club that I can join?

For context I love language learning, I am currently learning Spanish and I am looking for people to practice with, I can offer English or French in return (if language exchange).

Thank you!

Edit: Spelling lol, cant change the title

Are there any grocery stores that have fresh poblano peppers right now? I feel like every store I go to doesn’t have them or if they do they’re already getting mushy

EDIT: Thank you for all these awesome responses! I'm psyched to find my "thing". Woo!

Hi ladies, I am a 50 year old chick who needs to get their act together and join a fitness class that inspires me and has a great team vibe. I'm looking for 80's music, fun girls, and a mix of strength, flexibility, cardio, dance and balance work. I am starting from scratch. Does this Unicorn fitness class exist? Is it on the east side? I'm in Willowgrove. TYSM!! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Traffic/Road Conditions 🚧 I think I saw into the future of transit this morning

0 Upvotes

I was heading down the bridge and coming up the other side (uphill) there was a cyclist in front of a bus doing about 15 km an hour. Bus couldn't get around (not that he would anyway) because of traffic in the left hand lane. I should also mention the 6 cars behind the bus

So much for the BRT dream.

Been applying on Govt. of SK careers portal for jobs in Saskatoon. But I keep seeing the same role I have already applied for being re-listed several days later while my original application for the same role remains "Under Consideration".

Anyone from within the system know what this means? And are Govt. of SK departments also using AI for filtering resumes?

Politics πŸ›οΈ Sask Party Billboard on McOrmond

14 Upvotes

Features Moe photoshopped together with their upcoming Wonder Bread candidate for the 2028 election saying Chief Mistawasis underneath giving people the impression that she's their MLA. The election isn't for 2 years, I know Sask Party are huge donors to all the billboard companies but this seems very shady and should be illegal.

Sorry don't have a photo since I was driving when I saw it.
