I drove by the new Collaborative Science Research building today and took a few snaps

Anyone know what's going in at Stonegate in the parking lot next to Wok Bok/Ashley's? Noticed a big red construction fence around there this weekend.

That sure is a tough location for parking entry and exit for a Boston Pizza to go in there.
I heard another Asian Restaurant going in somewhere near the Sobeys in Stonebridge? |

Unsurprisingly, there seems to be some opposition to Meridian's proposed development in Nutana:

The project is infill done right.

The residents quoted in the article at least sound reasonable enough, not the foaming at the mouth NIMBY type. I wonder if the City and developer will negotiate a haircut for the building of 1 or 2 stories as a compromise -- I really hope not.

I read this in the SP today:

Not having the extremely high paid executives and their teams in Saskatoon would be huge blow. |
FFS!
Brad Wall never hesitates to spout off petulantly to defend Saskatchewan's interests when he feels they're threatened by the Feds, but when it's big business -- crickets. C'mon. |

The hard fact is that most of Potashcorp's executive positions are in the states and surprisingly not in Saskatoon. When BHP attempted the PCS Takeover in 2011 they boasted to increasing their head office number from 209 to 300 and from 6 executives to 11, but who is to actually enforce if they actually did hire that many more. The executives like to spend more time in the chicago (with United cancelling Chicago direct flights last year we will see less and less of them for sure) than in Saskatoon, which is a shame for the company being that 100% of revenues could be going back into Sask if it was still a crown corp and BHP bought it in 2011 versus this whole mess now. Luckily they spend a ton of money locally, but who's to say if that's going to start to slowly dwindle with the new Agrium merger as I don't think Agrium is as vested in one place like PCS is. On a side note, a Deutche Bank analyst is trying to get BHP Billiton to outright cancel its Jansen mine with the coming of their new chair person September 1st. Not great news on that end for Saskatoon head office expansion as a radical change in direction seems to be forthcoming. |
Here's a link to voice your concern to the government, maybe if enough people did this you might get more of a fight.

There's an ICR For Sale/Lease sign up on the vacant Silverwood House property on Queen Street showing this project:

The condos promised for this site years ago during the Silverwood House demolition controversy never materialized. Would be nice to see this go ahead. |
