The lawyer for a man accused in a crash that killed a cyclist in Kindersley, Sask., says his client was scared and confused after a collision on a dark road, and that he should be found not guilty of any criminal charges. But the Crown says William Jones was drunk, speeding and looking at his phone when he struck 21-year-old Caleb Bacon, who was riding a BMX bike down Railway Avenue around 5 a.m. CST on April 27, 2024.
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says the plan to pull testing for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in harvested game animals was a budget decision. The disease has been found in 63 of Saskatchewan's 83 wildlife zones since the province started collecting this data, and 525 cases were confirmed in the 2023-24 season alone.
