Saskatoon author Yann Martel, who took part, discusses some of the challenges he had to overcome.
Winter driving tips and vehicle preparedness from CAA Saskatchewan

The organization says having vehicles winter ready is also recommended.
Christine Niemczyk from CAA Saskatchewan has driving tips and a vehicle winter checklist as winter conditions settle over the province.
Scott Thomas speaks out against loosening semi-driver requirements

While SGI says those changes are not being considered, some want to make sure it never comes to pass.
