A Virden woman says she is just one victim of a series of crimes of opportunity targeting unlocked vehicles across Westman.
Heather Reimer, a freelance writer in Westman, said her 1999 Toyota Corolla was stolen overnight on Jan. 16 and wasn’t found until a few days later, in Wawota, Sask. I got into the habit of leaving the keys in the car, it was not running, it was parked in my back driveway off the back lane, said Reimer.

Instead of whether the Park Community Centre should be demolished, the prevailing conversation is now about how to save it.

Instead of whether the Park Community Centre should be demolished, the prevailing conversation is now about how to save it.
So described Coun. Kris Desjarlais (Rosser), following last week’s livestreamed public meetings about the fate of the building at 1428 Louise Ave. I’m at that point where we’re not actually looking at demolishing unless we’re talking about rebuilding, and I don’t think there’s an appetite for that right now.
