Scott Bradford can’t wait to bring his seven-month-old daughter to this year’s Santa Claus Parade.
“She’ll be there this year and hopefully next year and the year after that and it continues on. I think it’s something that
everybody wants to take their family to,” he said. “It’s extremely important to keep the tradition alive for the families
and the kids in Moose Jaw.”

By Lisa Goudy
With cold weather having arrived and more snow undoubtedly heading this way, permanent road patching with the hot mix has stopped.
“The contractor shut down at the end of last week,” said Duane Grado, public works manager. “So what you see now on our repairs on the street, in particular to excavations related to water main breaks and related to service connection replacements and repairs, you’re seeing cold mix being applied.”

Moose Jaw Times-Herald: Lisa's Corner: Taking down our walls
By Lisa Goudy
Nov. 9, 1989 was a big date in history. It marked the moment the Berlin Wall came down.
Now 25 years into the past, the event still holds monumental significance, even for someone like me who wasn’t born until after the Berlin Wall was taken down.
It was more than getting rid of a structure. It was about taking down the divides that had existed among opposing viewpoints for 28 years. This was a wonderful step forward for our world. It symbolized freedom and unity.
I think we could all learn something from the taking down of the wall. In many ways, invisible versions of the Berlin Wall still exist today.
