Daily Leg Update – Saskatchewan government under the microscope for decision to pay down debt instead of spending more on priority areas.
REGINA – Reaction was swift on Wednesday after finance minister Donna Harpauer presented Saskatchewan’s 2023-24 budget.

In speaking to reporters Wednesday, Premier Scott Moe defended the decision to address the debt.
“What we have decided with increased interest rates, this was in the best interests…

In the 15 years I’ve been an ELA teacher, do you know the number one thing that finally turned my small group discussions from surface-level talks that seemed like a waste of a class period into engaging, high-level analysis and collaboration? Discussions during which I not-so-secretly hoped my principal…

It was a hearing for the history books: Billionaire Howard Schultz, the totally anti-union architect of Starbucks, confronted Sen. Bernie Sanders, the outspoken champion of the union movement in Congress.
Schultz was once a prominent Democrat hailed as a progressive corporate pioneer of better pay and benefits for service industry workers. On Wednesday, under threat of subpoena, he appeared in the Senate to address allegations that Starbucks has been breaking labor laws as it fights its employees’ nationwide unionization push.
“Over the past 18 months Starbucks has waged the most aggressive and…

This randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted on 66 newly married women with cases in Asad-Abadi and Haft-e-Tir pre-marriage counseling centers in Tabriz. All Iranian couples previously referred to pre-marital centers for pre-marriage tests were selected as sample.
The inclusion criteria were newly married women (1—3 years passed from their marriage), scoring less than 50 in the Hulbert Sexual Assertiveness Index, having at least elementary education, first marriage, and living in a shared house. The exclusion criteria included aged below 18-years, pregnant or breastfeeding women, being candidates for divorce, history of mental disorders, such as depression,…
The interview began well. The medical school applicant delivered informed answers about the role of artificial intelligence in medicine, giving a patient bad news (step five: “offer support and resources”), and applying ethical reasoning to determine which of two patients gets a donated liver. But when Sahil Mehta, MD, sought personal reflections — about college experiences, personal ambitions, and motivation to practice medicine — the responses got strange:
“I do not attend college.”
“I do not have personal preferences or desires.”
“My knowledge of medicine is based on information that was available to me at the time of my training,…

Longtime Starbucks leader Howard Schultz defended the coffee chain’s confrontational approach to unionization Wednesday, while insisting it had not violated US labor law in countering the campaign.
The hearing, which got contentious at some points, was convened by progressive Vermont independent Senator Bernie Sanders, focusing on what Sanders called “illegal union busting.”
In his testimony, Schultz said he understood that workers have the right to unionize. But he argued that management-led efforts to persuade employees otherwise were also protected.…
