8:30 – Saskatchewan is making good progress on vaccinations, allowing the provincial government to accelerate its schedule by more than two weeks and move to the second phase of the vaccine plan. This means residents 67 and older can now book appointments online or by phone, and the Province also introduced paid time off work for those getting the vaccine, similar to the paid time off we get when voting. Health Minister Paul Merriman said the vaccination plan is going “extremely well,” and he joins Gormley to tell us more.

11:00 – Many in Saskatchewan are still upset over the new firearms legislation introduced by the Trudeau government, including Gilbert White of the Recreational Firearm Community Saskatchewan (RFC). Last month, White sent a letter to Chief Rick Bourassa, president of the Saskatchewan Association of Chiefs of Police, questioning his support for the bill, and arguing it penalizes law-abiding gun owners while offering little to prevent crime. White has had no response to his letter so far, and he joins Gormley to tell us more.
