The Varsity Common Sobeys store in Saskatoon has this extra-long set of automatic sliding doors. This store has been open in 2002, and nearly ten years later, I still question the need for these doors. Why can't they match the other three sets of doors that are in use? The only cool thing about this set of doors is that the decals are still there and show no signs of deterioration.
Premier Jason Kenney and Minister of Labour and Immigration Jason Copping discussed, during a news teleconference from Belmont Sobeys in northeast Edmonton on Wednesday, February 10, 2021, Alberta’s plan to recognize hundreds of thousands of critical workers who continue to support and provide services to Albertans during this pandemic.
The Critical Worker Benefit is a joint federal-provincial program that will see $465 million go to approximately 380,000 Alberta public and private sector workers as $1,200 cash payments.
“These workers have placed themselves at the front line of this pandemic in order to serve their fellow citizens during a crisis. Alberta’s government is recognizing their good work. We trust this support will help these workers continue to protect lives and livelihoods as we keep fighting this pandemic together.” said Premier Kenney.
The Critical Worker Benefit will be available to workers in the health-care, social services, education and private sectors who deliver critical services to Albertans or support food and medical supply chains.
“I want to thank all the hard-working staff who have gone above and beyond their regular call of duty to support their fellow Albertans throughout this pandemic. This Critical Worker Benefit will go right into the pockets of hard-working Albertans on the front line who have made sacrifices in their own lives for the greater good and well-being of others.” said Minister Copping.

Vision for Beaver Hills Park. Note that that law office has been demo'd, and Sobey's expanded with ground-level windows fronting the park. I get the sense they want to do a "Churchill Square" here and replace all the grass with tile/stone or whatever. Also note there is no snow on the sidewalks. They mentioned using excess heat from the buildings to heat the sidewalks, thus melting snow. Cool!
In 2013, Sobeys Inc. acquired Canada Safeway Ltd.. In order to approve the purchase, the Competition Bureau of Canada said that 23 stores (including Sobeys and Safeway stores) would have to be sold, which included this store at The Centre. On Thursday, February 13, 2014, Saskatoon-based Federated Co-operatives Ltd. agreed to buy 14 stores from Sobeys, including this store, which will eventually turn into a Co-op store. After hearing the news, I decided to take pictures of the store, as we know it won't be around for much longer. This marks the loss of another Safeway store, after it was announced that the store at 8th Street East and Cumberland Avenue South in the Cumberland Square shopping plaza will be closing this spring.
Fun fact: Sobeys supplies all Target stores in Canada with msot of their grocery offerings.
In 2013, Sobeys agreed to acquire Canada Safeway. In order for the takeover to proceed, the Competition Bureau of Canada ordered that Sobeys sell 23 stores, including both Sobeys and Safeway banner stores. Out of these 23, one Safeway store at The Centre was on that list. On May 12, 2014, the Safeway store closed and the transformation into a Saskatoon Co-op store began, as Federated Cooperatives Ltd. acquired the store in Saskatoon.

I saw this bright green bicycle and I just had to take a picture of it. I'm not really sure what the story is - even the bicycle chain is painted. It's at the corner of Parliament and Dundas in front of the new Sobeys.
I worked on a selective colour version, but it was very difficult given the tire spokes and front basket. I also though that selective colour would make the green look like something I did in Photoshop. It's not - the bike is really this neon green.

The Shoppers Drug Mart at Preston Crossing in Saskatoon closed as of September 7, 2012. Here's the store as of September 8, 2012. If you have a parcel/letter to pick up from Canada Post, you can now pick up your parcels/letters at the customer service counter at Sobeys. The mailbox in front of the store at Shoppers Drug Mart appears to have been relocated to the Sobeys store, which makes me wonder if the Sobeys store will include a post office. It's not unusual to see that, as other grocery stores, including Co-op, have post offices. In fact, some Sobeys stores in Regina have post offices as well. I remember when this store opened in 2002. At the time, there were free donuts and 2-litre bottles of Coca-Cola and Pepsi products were on sale at $0.49. The store was part of Phase I of the Preston Crossing development.
