The University of Saskatchewan is shutting down its Language Centre after three decades of helping international students learn English. Since opening in 1995, the centre has welcomed students from around the world, but enrolment has dropped. “The number of students and the tuition actually doesn’t cover the cost of the salaries of the people who were the teachers,” Jerome Cranston, the vice-provost of students and learning, told CTV News. The centre has been operating in a deficit since 2017.

Saskatchewan is seeing some success from its digital advertising campaign targeting American doctors. The ads target family doctors, anesthetists, and emergency room physicians — encouraging them to move to Saskatchewan. “More security and less drama. Join us in Saskatchewan!” one of the ads reads. As a result of the campaign, the Ministry of Health said it’s met virtually with two American anesthesiologists and a meeting with an emergency physician is scheduled.
