The air ambulance service that flies over Saskatchewan has added a new helicopter to its fleet, with a nod to Rod Gantefoer, the former Saskatchewan politician who was key in establishing the service in the province.
STARS (Shock Trauma Air Rescue Service) Air Ambulance officially unveiled the new Airbus H145 helicopter in Regina on Tuesday, though it actually entered service in the province weeks ago — and had actually been unveiled to the public a day earlier in Melfort, Gantefoer's hometown.
