Hardwood hustle WAYNE SHIELS | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Emmarie Racin-Hallinof the Clavet Cougars shows a lot of hustle as she creates a turnover during a game against the Prince Albert Collegiate Institute (PACI) Golden Bears at last weekend’s 3A senior girls regional championships in Clavet. The Cougars won this game 103-14 and went on to defeat Birch Hills in the final by a score of 68-36. With the victory, the Clavet girls punched their ticket to the Hoopla provincial championships next weekend. More regional basketball coverage on pages 28 and 30.

No injuries in two-vehicle collision at Wanuskewin Road and Highway 11 By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca A two vehicle collision at a hazardous intersection just as the sun rose on March 11 could have been a lot worse, according to Corporal Ken Aspen of the Warman RCMP. “Miraculously, no one was injured,” he said. At approximately 7:30

a.m. at the intersection of Wanuskewin Road and Highway 11, a west-bound vehicle on Highway 11 was struck by a vehicle proceeding north across the intersection. “They both ended up in the ditch,” said Aspen. “A few more inches and it would have been a lot worse.” He added that the

volume of traffic is significant and the infrastructure, unfortunately, is not keeping up. “Hopefully with time that will change.” A woman driving an SUV proceeded across the intersection when unsafe and struck a gentleman driving an Acura SUV. Emergency medical

personnel on the scene checked the drivers for injuries and there were none. Corporal Aspen was managing traffic while officers assessed the scene. Traffic heading into Saskatoon was down to one lane as tow trucks pulled both vehicles from the ditch.

Osler Museum closing its doors By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca After 36 years, the Osler Historical Museum is closing its doors for the last time. “It’s tough to let go of something like this after so long,” said Hella Banman, a long-serving member of the Osler Historical Museum committee. “But we didn’t really have any other option. We just can’t afford to keep it open anymore. “It’s with a heavy heart that we came to this final decision. We are all sorry to see it go.” The museum, located on 2nd Avenue in Osler, consists of three buildings including a house, school and storage shed on townowned property. The house, built in 1942, was donated to the town and converted to a museum by volunteers. The school building was the community’s original oneroom schoolhouse and was moved to the location. Both the house and the school buildings are in need of substantial repairs, and the cost was just too expensive, said Banman. “We were working on fixing the house museum,” she said. “The basement was flooding in spring, so we were wanting to build a new basement and move the house onto it. “Then during this, we also saw that the school museum was in need of a lot of repairs. We contacted several contractors and everyone declined. “The town could not help us, no grants were available, and we couldn’t see ourselves doing any more fundraising. “All that was left for us to do was close up.” The estimated cost for the work would have been well over $150,000. The contents of the muse-

Balzer at njbalzer@sasktel. net. The museum’s roots go back to 1980, when a temporary display was set up in the Osler town office for the community’s homecoming event. “Jake and Margaret Loeppky were the ones who originally did a lot of work on that project,” said Banman, who has been a committee member since the beginning. “When the homecoming was over, people didn’t want the furniture back, so we decided to set up a permanent museum. “We were given space in the basement and a couple of guys built a partial roof with shingles so it looked like a building inside this room. We also had a little room where we exhibited barn stuff. “That became our first museum space.” The museum artifacts were later moved when a house was made available by the town. Built in 1942, the house originally be-

longed to Mr. and Mrs. Rempel. The house was renovated by volunteers to accommodate donations of artifacts. A few years later, the one-room schoolhouse was moved onto the town-owned property. The original desk from the town’s railway station was set up in a special display in the school building. A professionally-produced video about the history of the school was produced by the committee last summer. Throughout its 36-year history, the museum has relied on volunteer labour and fundraising. Local schoolchildren benefited from tours of the house and school for many years. The museum was also a member of the Saskatchewan Museums Association. In recent years, however, the number of volunteers has declined, and costs have risen, said Banman. Vandalism has also become a serious problem, she said.

Fraud schemes reel in victims of all ages: Trainor By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca While seniors are usually viewed as vulnerable potential scam victims, fraud artists are increasingly targeting young adults, according to Brian Trainor, a former police officer and an expert on the subject. “There is no lack of scams aimed at seniors; but the most vulnerable group is actually the new generation of 20-somethings, who do a lot of buying online,” said Trainor in a telephone interview on Wednesday, March 9. “That’s why they’re getting caught in the scam artists’ nets. They see those ads on Facebook for beautiful clothes at really cheap prices and they think they’re legitimate. They’re not. They’re scams. And that’s just one example.” Trainor said young adults tend to be a bit naive because they are short on “life experiences.” They like to share their personal life through social media and they also tend to be impulsive when it comes to making purchases online. He said the best insurance policy against scams is “a healthy skepticism.” “Do your homework,” he advised. “Don’t take things at face value. If you think something sounds fishy, it’s a good idea to listen to that little voice in the back of your head warning you something’s not right. Google is your best friend. You’d be surprised how many scams you can uncover just by looking on the internet.” Trainor said fraud schemes usually show up on your telephone or in your e-mail. “Scams tend to be season-

al,” said Trainor. “They’re like the ‘flavour of the month’. This month, we’re seeing a lot of phony tax fraud calls and e-mails. In February, with Valentine’s Day on everybody’s mind, it was the ‘lonely hearts’ variety. Before that it was Christmas.” Trainor said the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) would never phone or email anyone requesting personal information. “They already have that,” he said. “Anytime you get a call asking for that kind of personal data, that’s a red flag. Hang up immediately. It’s not against the law to put down the receiver. The longer you stay on the line the better your chances of being sucked in.” He said phone scams often target new Canadians and recent immigrants. “Lots of times the scams play on people’s fears,” said Trainor. “The fraud artist may pretend to be a police officer. If a new Canadian, who is unfamiliar with Canadian laws, comes from a country where law enforcement agencies aren’t as honest as they are here, they can be intimidated by these types of threatening calls.” He said victims of fraud are often reluctant to step forward because of embarrassment and fear. “An elderly person may not want to tell anyone they’ve been scammed because they think they may lose their independence,” said Trainor. “There’s a lot of fraudulent schemes taking place all around us. Only about 10 per cent of it actually gets reported. It’s like an iceberg where 90 per cent of it is underwater and not visible.”

Kevin Martens says the expansion of the Cherished Memories Funeral Services and Crematory to include a “life story room” will meet a growing need in the community

Family-owned funeral home in Martensville expanding

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Celebrating the life story of a loved one who has passed on is important to family members, says Kevin Martens, owner of Cherished Memories Funeral Services and Crematory in Martensville. The funeral home, which has been a fixture in the community for the past ten years, is currently building a 3700 square foot addition in order to accommodate a “life story room.” “A traditional funeral home may call it a chapel,” said Martens. “But it’s designed to be much more than that. It’s meant to be a gathering place where a person’s life story can be shared in whatever way the family feels is best. We will have a lot of technology in that room to help families hold a themed remembrance event. That includes a high definition projector and a screen across the entire front. It will al-

low the family to put together a sampling of their loved one’s life story with pictures and music as a tribute. “It’s a way of helping the healing process, and also helping the family feel the support from the community.” Martens is one of two “certified celebrants” on staff at Cherished Memories. “We are trained storytellers,” said Martens. “So what we’ll do is sit down with the family for two to three hours, or however long it takes, and we will collect stories and incorporate that into the service, so you have those personal touches.” While the owners and staff will do all they can to help a family that wants to hold a traditional church service, Martens said there’s a growing sector of the population that may prefer an alternative. “I’ve been in this profes-

sion for about 20 years, and more and more we’re seeing families that aren’t connected with a church,” said Martens. “For the past ten years we’ve always encouraged families to share their memories of their loved ones and remember the good times. Now we’ll be able to do that within our own venue.” The addition will be able to accommodate about 200 people, and will more than double the square footage of the building, which also includes a crematorium. “In the past ten years, a lot has changed,” said Martens. “More families are choosing cremation over a traditional casket service.” Martens said while most people don’t like to think about death, it’s a very real part of everyone’s life. “It’s always a difficult time for families when they lose a loved one, but we do our best to help them honour their memory and celebrate their life,” he said.

Dalmeny police investigate break-in Dalmeny Police are currently investigating a breakin that occurred on Sunday morning, March 13. According to police, the Dalmeny AG Foods store was broken into and an undisclosed amount of money was taken as well as several

bags of Maynard candies. Entry was gained through the rear door of the building. During the same time frame, the people responsible gained access to the roof of the building and removed a roof vent as well as tearing the gate off a fence next

to the mall. Witnesses described the people responsible as younger males approximately 5’9” to 6’ tall wearing lumber jackets. Police believe these acts were done by residents of Dalmeny and are asking for assistance in this matter.

Gordie Howe gives Asquith rink fundraising effort a boost

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Asquith arena is a lot like hundreds of other small town rinks built in the mid1960s. With natural ice, wooden arches holding up a sloped roof, and a few bleachers along the boards, it’s kept open through the long winter months because of a lot of hard work by a few dedicated volunteers. While it’s always a struggle to pay for repairs, insurance and everyday maintenance costs, community members pitch in to keep it open for the kids who love to play Canada’s national game. Hockey legend Gordie Howe understands why local rinks in small-town Saskatchewan are so important. “Mr. Hockey” was born in Floral and raised in Saskatoon, where he learned to skate on outdoor natural ice using oversized, second-hand blades. His talent, strength and grit propelled him into the NHL in the late 1940s when he was still a raw teenager. He went on to achieve legendary status in Motor City during a stellar career in the 1950s and 1960s, helping the Detroit Red Wings win four Stanley Cups. After a short-lived retirement, Howe beat the odds in an amazing comeback bid, and went on to play in the World Hockey Association and NHL alongside his sons Mark and Marty

mother is Gordie Howe’s niece.) He and his family have lived in Asquith for about eight years. Chuck and Shannon also have another daughter, Haelynn, who is three years old. “Originally, my uncle Gordie signed two jerseys for my kids,” said Chuck in a phone interview on Wednesday, March 9. “My mom got hold of her cousin, Murray, who is Gordie’s son, and asked if Gordie would sign another one and donate it to the rink. Gordie didn’t hesitate. That’s just the kind of guy he is, and has always been. He’s very generous. All he asked in return was that he get a ‘thank you’ from the community. “So we got all the kids together in the rink with their team jerseys on the weekend before all the ice melted and we filmed a video of them saying thank you to Gordie Howe. “That same evening was when we presented the two

jerseys to my kids. It was a surprise. They didn’t know they were getting them.” Chuck said he has fond memories of his great-uncle’s visits to Saskatchewan. “My grandma, Edna, was four years older than Gordie,” said Chuck. “She always stuck up for him in school and she’s the one who taught him how to fight and how to skate.” Jodi Nehring, secretary of the Asquith rink board, said the group is applying for a lottery license, and once it’s approved, they’ll start selling tickets on the jersey. The draw will be made in the spring of 2017. “This is a huge deal for us,” said Nehring. “We’re all so excited. Our hockey program is very healthy with a lot of kids taking part, and we’re hoping to provide more on-ice activities during the winter for families. We want to make the rink the gathering place for our town in the winter months.”

in the 1970s, and he holds a record for longevity in the pro ranks that will never be equalled, let alone broken. But through all those years in the professional ranks, Howe never forgot his roots, or his extended family back home in Saskatchewan. Now, at the age of 87 (he’ll turn 88 in a few weeks), and in failing health, Howe is

stepping up to the plate once again. Earlier this month, he donated a personally-autographed Red Wings jersey to the Asquith rink board. The jersey will be the grand prize in a lottery to be held this fall in an effort to raise money for the rink. The hope is the venture will generate sufficient funds to help keep the As-

quith rink open a few more years so Howe’s great-grand niece and great-grand nephew and their friends can play minor hockey in their home town. Eleven-year-old Aella Boldis and her eight-year-old brother Ares both participate in their community’s hockey program. They’re the offspring of Chuck Boldis and his wife Shannon. Chuck is a grand-nephew of Gordie Howe. (Chuck’s

Combined business excellence awards raising eyebrows

Over 75 nominations have been received for inaugural event

By TERRY JENSON tjenson@ccgazette.ca When it comes to working together to create a strong and vibrant business community, the Martensville Chamber of Commerce and Warman Chamber of Commerce are making others sit up and pay attention. Speaking to about 40 members at a luncheon on Friday, March 11 at the Canalta Inn in Martensville, Warman Chamber of Commerce director Jade Gulash said the upcoming business excellence awards is breaking new ground in Saskatchewan. “We keep saying it over and over again but it’s no small task to bring two chambers of commerce from two different communities together,” she remarked. “It’s totally unprecedented.” Gulash added that the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce is awestruck that the two organizations have joined forces to present awards in five categories on May 27. “One of my favourite terms in business is ‘coopitition’ and I really believe that if we can all highlight each other’s businesses and competition that we are creating in our business communities, our business communities as a whole are going to progress and show a lot of improvement,” she explained. According to Gulash, the business excellence awards is one method that will help create additional awareness of the Warman and Martensville business com-

Lana Sheppard of Cheques ‘n Balances explains how the SABEX awards nomination process in Saskatoon helped her business become more successful munities and draw in consumers from Saskatoon and other areas. Guest speaker Lana Sheppard of Cheques ‘n Balances Business Services Inc. is a success story when it comes to business excellence awards and applauded the effort put forth by the Warman Chamber of Commerce and Martensville Chamber of Commerce to present a joint awards night. Having been nominated and won a Greater Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce SABEX award, Sheppard imparted some wisdom to all businesses whether they have been

nominated or not. “In 2009, we had a client nominate us for a SABEX award and we filled out the application and went through the whole process,” Sheppard recalled. “What we learned (from the application process) is answering those questions and really thinking about your business. So, although there’s an award at the end, the process is invaluable. You go through thinking about customer service to your marketing, what you’re doing well and what you’re not doing well.” Sheppard brought her staff together and spent a significant amount of time

over three to four days collaborating on the application. Together, they identified areas of strength and were able to pinpoint weaknesses or areas of the business that needed improvement. Over the next few years, the company made improvements and was named winner of the 2015 SABEX Small Business of the Year. “One thing I’ve learned as a business owner is that sometimes you get wrapped up in the day-to-day stuff in your business rather than on your business so this is an opportunity for everybody to kind of step back and think about where

you’re at, where you want to go and what I’m doing well. Take a breath and, at the end of the day, if you’re a finalist go and celebrate by having a great dinner and network with the other businesses. Tell everybody your story. It’s important to do that when you’re a small business.” To date, over 75 nominations have been received for Warman & Martensville Chambers of Commerce Business Excellence Awards in the categories of Business of the Year, Marketing, Community Involvement, New Business and Customer Service. Businesses may be nominated or can sim-

ply apply in one or multiple categories before March 29. Five finalists will be selected by a panel of judges in each category with the winners announced at the awards gala on May 27 in Warman at the Brian King Centre. Nomination forms and tickets to the awards banquet are available on the Warman Chamber of Commerce website. All applicants must be for-profit businesses with a substantial base of operations in Warman, Martensville or surrounding areas that include but are not limited to North Corman Park, Osler and Neuanlage.

Stormwater pond ice unsafe, city officials warn

}

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Warmer weather in recent weeks has rendered the ice on stormwater ponds in Warman and Martensville unsafe, according to city officials. “We’re strongly advising people to stay away from the ponds and not venture out onto the ice because of unsafe conditions,” said Warman Recreation and Community Services Manager Paul McGonigal. “It’s just not worth the risk.” That message is echoed by Martensville Director of Recreation and Community Services Dave Bosch. “Definitely, at this time of year we recommend that people stay off the ice,” said Bosch. “Just a quick glance at the ice is usually enough to make people think twice. You can see the water in places so you know it’s starting to get very unsafe.” “Danger, thin ice” signs posted around stormwater reservoirs in Warman are a visible reminder to avoid the area, noted McGonigal. Stormwater retention ponds are not like natural water bodies, he added. “They behave differently because during periods when snow and ice melt on the streets in town, all the meltwater goes into the ponds through the storm drains,” he said. “The volume of water in the reten-

Warning signs are posted around ponds advising residents to avoid venturing out onto the ice tion ponds rises, and that in turn raises the ice. This can create cracks and weak spots.” Draining the water from the ponds also has implications, he noted. “When the water level in the pond drops, that results in the creation of air pockets between the water and the ice, and that also makes it unsafe,” he said. Warning signs around the storm retention ponds in Warman have been in effect since mid-February, noted McGonigal. “There was a day last month when it rained really hard and we had a lot of runoff into the storm drains,” he said. “That resulted in a lot of water collecting in the ponds, which had a definite bear-

ing on the safety of the ice. It hasn’t really been safe since then, and the warmer temperatures have made it even more dangerous.” The City of Martensville also erected temporary warning signs around reservoirs in February in response to the rain, said Bosch. He added that those warning signs are once again in place and will likely stay there until the ice melts. McGonigal urged parents to explain the dangers of thin ice to their kids. “Even though there’s still snow cover in places, the ice underneath is rotting,” he said. “Melting ice tends to attract kids, so it’s important that they understand they need to avoid those areas.”

Mission Impossible: Slaying a deficit while increasing spending

By Todd MacKay Canadian Taxpayers Association

Saskatchewan is attempting something that many have tried and few, if any, have accomplished: slaying a deficit while increasing spending. Premier Brad Wall’s government recently released its third-quarter budget update, which showed that the operational surplus of $107 million projected in the budget last spring has turned into a deficit of $427 million. Falling resource revenues are the main reason. The government rightly points out that it cannot control the price of oil or potash. However, it can control its spending. When Saskatchewan families and businesses have less money, they typically react by spending less money. It seems the Saskatchewan government views things differently. Last spring’s provincial budget projected spending at $14.17 billion. Then oil prices plunged further than anyone imagined. Now, the third-quarter update projects government spending to be $110 million higher. So revenues went down, but spending went up. To be fair, massive budgets are hard to change quickly. Perhaps a longer-term plan is required to trim spending in response to falling revenues. Last spring, the budget projected next year’s spending at $14.47 billion. That’s an increase of $192 million. And that projection was made before the price for a barrel of oil fell to $30. Surely spending projections in the third-quarter update would be adjusted to reflect tighter revenues, right? Well, the update still projects next year’s spending at $14.47 billion and projects average spending increases of $334 million per year thereafter. So, despite falling revenues, the Saskatchewan government is not planning to adjust its spending. The result is an operational deficit this year and another deficit next year, with balanced budgets projected after that. “There isn’t much room left, frankly, for cuts,” said Premier Wall when he announced Saskatchewan would run operational deficits this year and next. Saskatchewan’s plan for balance is based entirely on recovering revenues rather than more efficient spending. This defies history, as governments of every political stripe have slayed deficits by trimming spending. Ralph Klein, Mike Harris and Jean Chretien all cut spending to slay their deficits. Most recently, Stephen Harper trimmed spending to slay the deficit he created. Even though everyone else has balanced budgets by trimming spending, it might still work to let the budget balance itself with revenue increases, right? Here’s the amazing thing: The Saskatchewan government doesn’t actually need to make cuts; if it simply stops increasing spending for a year it would nearly balance its operational budget in 2017. Maybe Saskatchewan will succeed in balancing the budget while increasing spending. But let’s look at what success will mean. According to the current plan, Saskatchewan will borrow $427 million to cover its operational deficit this year and another $259 million next year. That’s in addition to the $700 million the government is borrowing for infrastructure spending this year. It’s a total of $1.39 billion in new debt. After the operational budget is balanced again, the government projects surpluses and contingencies totalling $308 million by 2019-20. That means even if oil prices rise and the government’s plan works, Saskatchewan is still likely to come out with more than a billion dollars in new debt. The situation is simple. We have less money. We need to spend less money. Otherwise, we’re sending the bill to our kids and grandkids.

AUDITED CIRCULATION: 17,888 VOL. 8 NO. 28

NDP getting ahead of campaign It probably looks like the NDP is getting a tremendous jump in the 2016 election campaign. By the time Premier Brad Wall kicked off last Tuesday what will be a 28-day campaign, the NDP had already fired off a whole series of campaign announcements. It said it would reinstate the Saskatchewan Film Employment Tax Credit. This may seem strictly like an urban issue, but with the number of past productions under the old SFETC taking place in smaller communities like Kipling, Gravelbourg, Estevan and, of course, Rouleau (where both the Corner Gas television series and movie were shot) a lot of local business opportunities were created for smaller rural communities. And that was just one of many announcements that NDP leader Cam Broten and his party ground out in the week before the campaign started. Broten also promised to “fix the worst ambulancefee system in Canada by ending charges for transfers between facilities” and the “per-kilometre charges patients pay.”

MURRAY MANDRYK

Provincial Politics

Saskatchewan is the only province charging for interfacility hospital transfers and one of only two provinces topping up basic charges with a per-kilometre fee. One might think this, too, would be a big issue for rural voters who often bear the brunt of the per-kilometre costs of ambulances. Broten also committed to a modest tax cut by increasing the basic personal exemption (pre-tax income) by $500; a move that would benefit 70 per cent of Saskatchewan taxpayers. New Democrats would also increase taxes on the rich by creating a higher tax bracket for individual earnings over $175,000. Broten promised to have reinstated, by 2020, the old guarantee offered by the former Lorne Calvert NDP government of the lowest utility bill bundle in the country. The NDP argued that while Saskatchewan ratepayers used to pay $40 less per year than their

Manitoba neighbours, residents in this province now pay $400 a year more. Broten also promised expanded and more accessible mental health care for children by covering up to eight counselling sessions per year. He would also create two provincial mental health specialty clinics, use already-promised Quick Care clinics in Regina, Saskatoon, Prince Albert and Moose Jaw to increase availability and hire more workers. Also, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for many like professional firefighters would be covered through Workers’ Compensation by an NDP government. In what seems a more political move, the NDP would sell “Executive Air” for about $4 million, while converting at least one of planes used by cabinet ministers to air ambulance use. The NDP took particular glee at slamming Kindersley MLA and Economy Minister Bill Boyd for running up the biggest Executive Air bills. The pre-campaign festivities also have Broten taking a less direct political shot

at Boyd by calling for an inquiry into the Global Transportation Hub. You get the picture: Both in terms of politics and policy, Broten and the NDP have clearly decided to get out ahead of the campaign. It’s a strategy, however, that may not work. For starters, it’s allowed Wall and the Sask. Party to cost out NDP spending earlier, too. The Sask. Party is now accusing Broten of having already committed to $5.5 billion in new spending. Of course, such analysis from a political opponent needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Nevertheless, in an election that may be more about managing our money than spending it, this early NDP spending spree might not to be to its advantage. Finally, let us not forget how far back the NDP is. While getting a headstart may seem politically smart, it might also come across as a little desperate. In fact, it probably is. After all, if you couldn’t appeal to voters for the last nine years, are a whole bunch of promises now really going to sway them?

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

The Clark’s Crossing Gazette welcomes the submission of news stories, photos, letters or any other information that would be of interest to the readers of this newspaper.

NEWS OR SPORTS STORIES

If you or someone you know has been involved in an event you think is newsworthy, please include your name and contact information (either a daytime telephone number and/or email address). Please send the information in a timely manner following the event and remember to include as much pertinent information as possible, including the following: 1. WHO was involved? 2. WHAT was the event? 3. WHEN and WHERE did the event occur? 4. WHY was the event important?

PHOTO GUIDELINES & TIPS

All the information that goes with a news story should also accompany photo(s) as above. Include the names of all the people in each photo and identify from left to right and from back to front. 1. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the final outcome of the photo in print. 2. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a built-in zoom lens extended will produce “grainy” images that do not reproduce well. 3. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot. 4. “Presentation” photos typically don’t work well if there are too many people side-by-side in the frame. If there are many people in the photo, have them as close together as possible and, if needed, have the front row seated and the back row standing. 5. Remember taking a picture facing into the sun or bright light will produce poor quality images.

Students get up close with health care professionals By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Inserting a tube into a tracheostomy was just one of many hands-on activities students could try at a recent event to explore careers in health care. Randi Haas took it all in stride. The Martensville student is thinking about becoming a doctor. She and 180 other students from the public and Catholic school systems in Saskatoon, as well as the Prairie Spirit School Division, participated in Health Link on March 9. Health Link is the result of a partnership between the Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) and the Saskatoon Industry-Education Council. The day brought students, professionals and educational institutions together at City Park School to help students figure out life after high school. It’s a hands-on interactive opportunity to explore health care professions. “The intent for the day is to help students make informed decisions for post secondary education,” said Alysha Robb, workforce planning consultant for the SHR. Throughout the day, students had the opportunity to speak with physicians, students and residents involved with medicine and then participate in breakout sessions

HILARY KLASSEN | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Students from Martensville High School (pictured) participated in Health Link at City Park School for nursing and therapy. These covered all levels of nursing – Continuing Care Assistants, Licensed Practical Nurse, Registered Nurse and various therapies. Haas is in Grade 11 and has previously attended a similar event that dealt with vaccines and infectious diseases. Her interest in the field of medicine, particularly oncology, comes from some painful personal experience. “I had a lot of family members diagnosed with cancer and family friends, so oncology is just there. And my grandfather was a doctor and I’ve always really looked up to him. It’s something I’m really drawn to,” said Haas. While the day focused on nursing a lot, she said it’s really interesting because it

gets you close to the medical field. Meagan Kielo from Delisle Composite High appreciated the opportunity to learn about various types of therapeutic interventions. “It’s showing us all the different types of therapy like Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Respiratory Therapy, Speech Language Pathology and Recreational Therapy,” said Kielo. She appreciated PowerPoint presentations, which described the steps for getting into a certain program and what it would be like. Kielo was also looking forward to afternoon sessions in diagnostics, with lab and imaging occupations like lab technician, lab assistant, cytotechnologist, as well as radiation therapist and xray technician, as well as

more hands-on participation. Kielo is definitely interested in some of these health care fields, and an event like Health Link can help clarify a future direction. “I’m not set yet,” she said, and as a Grade 10 student, she’s got time to explore and become informed. The day also offered a glimpse of mental health professions in Addictions, Social Work, Psychiatry and Psychology. Health Care professions also offer behind the scenes work related to human resources, health records, business, and machine assistance, which will appeal to some students. Students had a chance to ask their questions, learn whether a certificate or degree program is the way they want to go, find out where they could work, what it would be like to work in a given profession on a day to day basis, and what kind of compensation and job satisfaction they might anticipate. The SHR gets many requests for job shadowing and work education placements, and are not able to accommodate all of them, Robb said. A day like Health Link, with 16 educational institutions represented, close to 50 presenters and a mini-career fair at lunch, can help bridge the information and experiential gap.

Hockeyville paying dividends for Martensville By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Even as the final hours for voting in the Kraft Hockeyville contest ticking down, Martensville’s supporters were stepping up their efforts to have the community make it to the final round. Martensville was announced as one of the top ten finalists in the nation-wide contest on Hockey Night in Canada in early March. Voting began on the weekend and wrapped up at 10:00 p.m. on Monday, March 14. The top two contenders in the contest, based on the number of votes, will be announced this weekend on Hockey Night in Canada. The community that wins the contest will receive $100,000 in arena upgrades and have the opportunity to host an NHL game. Jesse Reis, one of the organizers of the Martensville Community Recreation Committee (MCRC), is optimistic they can generate a lot of support across the region and the province. “It’s been something that everyone has really rallied around,” said Reis. “It’s kind of exploded on Twitter and Facebook; and the minor hockey community has really gotten behind it as well.” Reis said it’s gratifying that people in the region are supporting the campaign.

“It’s not limited to Martensville, by any means,” he said. “We’re the only community in Saskatchewan to make the cut, so that helps us. But more importantly, I think everyone in this region knows how important it is to have recreational facilities. A second ice surface is badly needed in Martensville because it serves a lot of people in the surrounding area as well as the city itself.”

Reis said minor hockey registrations in Martensville are “through the roof” and projections indicate the enrolment of kids in the program will continue to increase. “We have about 50 first year initiation kids this year,” said Reis. “Last year there were about 25 youngsters, so it’s doubled in a single year. We’re probably looking at a similar increase next year.”

But even if Martensville fails to crack the final two spots in the contest, Reis said being in the top ten has already paid off. “I didn’t realize at first that making the top ten means the community receives $25,000 toward arena upgrades,” said Reis. “That’s a huge boost for our campaign. We would have had to put in a major fundraising effort to generate that much money.”

BIGGAR-SASK VALLEY CONSTITUENCY

Faiza Kanwal

Ryan Lamarche Green Party

New Democratic Party

Saskatchewan Party

The Liberal candidate for Biggar-Sask Valley is Faiza Kanwal. The candidate did not respond to a written request for a photo or personal submission. The Liberal Party has a five-point platform (saskliberals.ca) which includes: *Building a strong and diversified economy through investments in infrastructure to get goods and resources to market; increased immigration; reinstating the film tax credit; and creating a “sovereign wealth fund” using non-renewable resource revenues once the public debt is eliminated. *Supporting sustainable communities by increasing personal tax exemptions, green energy entrepreneurship, and offering a tax incentive for individual solar and wind generation facilities. *opposition to private MRI clinics; rollback the lean system; support palliative care services, reduce emergency wait times and expand home care services. *stabilize provincial funding for K-12 and post-secondary education. *limit political party contributions to $3,000 per year for individuals, corporations and unions, reduce the number of MLAs in the Legislature from 61 to 48, and review government procurement procedures to ensure they are in taxpayers’ interests.

My name is Ryan Lamarche. I am 36 years old and have been involved in politics since I was 16 years old. I have two children and have been living in this riding for eight years. I have been in this riding all of my life for I have family here and I know I can help this area once elected to grow and do better then it is already. The Green party does not believe in the Left vs Right but what is best for the individual. This I feel is a new approach to do business in politics and one that is needed badly. Secondly, The Green party has a huge compassioniate side to it to help the poorer people in the riding and the disabled at the same time as not punishing the wealthy for they realize we need both elements and instead of fighting each other they want a united approach for the better of the individual no matter what social class they are from. Another big area that I support is the Sask Greens support the “firewall” approach to get what is rightfully our back from the constitution and for Saskatchewan to be self-sustained. We need the jobs here for the people of Saskatchewan and to develop the resources here in Saskatchewan and to produce all good from the raw resources to refining them here in Saskatchewan to sell to others and to keep or lower the cost to us here in Saskatchewan.

’m running to be your NDP MLA in Biggar-Sask. Valley because I will stand up for things that matter to families. One of my passions is working with young people. In 2001, I moved to Rosthern and was dean of students at Rosthern Junior College for four years. In 2009, I received a Bachelor of Arts in Political Studies from the University of Saskatchewan and currently work in the housing sector. I am concerned about the state of healthcare in our province. Wait times for surgeries have grown, our hospitals are short-staffed and people are spending hours waiting in the emergency room. The NDP will work to reduce ER, specialist and MRI wait times. Imagine only waiting 1530 minutes in the ER- by hiring more frontline workers and nurse practitioners to fast track patients in our hospitals- it is possible! The NDP will stop the cuts the Sask. Party has made to healthcare and education, and invest in the public services we all count on, so that healthcare services are there when people need it, and our kids have the quality, top-notch education they deserve. I share Cam Broten’s vision of making the lives of students, seniors, and families benefitting more from all that Saskatchewan has to offer, and as your MLA I will work to stand up for the things that matter to you and your family.

I am very honoured to be the Saskatchewan Party candidate for the new Constituency of Biggar-Sask Valley. Over the past year I have had the pleasure of getting to know the new constituents by attending events and holding coffee parties in various communities. I was first elected in 1999 and re-elected in 2003, 2007, and 2011. During this time in opposition I served as critic for Environment, Labour, and Highways and Transportation while serving as deputy critic for Immigration and Information Services Corporation. I also served on various committees and was Deputy House Leader. After the Saskatchewan Party formed government in November of 2007, I was appointed as Government Whip. In May of 2012 Premier Brad Wall pointed me as Minister of Rural and Remote Health. I currently serve as Government Caucus Chair. The Saskatchewan Party Government, since 2011, has made substantial contributions to the people and infrastructure of Biggar-Sask Valley Constituency, as well as the province. Some of the highlights in Education include a 30 per cent increase in operating funding for Prairie Spirit School Division and a 22 per cent increase in operating funding for Sunwest School Division. There has been many major repairs done on schools including; Asquith, Borden, Hague, Cando, Hepburn and Dalmeny. Some highlights in Health include a 43 per cent increase to Heartland and a 60 per cent increase to Saskatoon Health Regions funding. I am especially proud of Biggar’s new Long Term Care Facility! All this does not happen without strong leadership, on Election Day I humbly ask for your support!

Crop protection is good for everyone Did you know that pesticides are a very important part of any farmer’s toolbox? Crop protection products benefit plants, the environment, and everyone according to CropLife Canada. Here are a few interesting illustrations: • Pesticides protect crops from insects, weeds and diseases ensuring that farmers can produce a safe and abundant food supply. • By helping farmers grow more plentiful crops, pesti-

cides help keep food prices low. • Pesticides allow farmers to grow more on existing land, which means they don’t have to expand agricultural production into valuable wildlife habitats. • Pesticides help keep fruits and vegetables free from insect damage and disease. • Pesticides reduce weeds that compete with crops for water, nutrients, sunlight and space.

• Without pesticides, Canadian farmers would lose almost 70 percent of fruit crops, 65 percent of vegetable crops, and about 32 percent of field crops. • Pesticides are tested and evaluated by Health Canada to ensure their safety for the environment and humans. Due to these crop protection products, Canadians enjoy unblemished tomatoes, insect-free apples, and fresh crisp cucumbers, to name just a few.

Learn how pesticides make it to market

Canadians have access to one of the world’s safest food supplies. Our farmers grow abundant, nutritious crops with the help of stringently tested pesticides that protect the plants from insects, weeds and diseases. But before these crop protection products make it to the market, they are thoroughly evaluated. Here, CropLife Canada shines a spotlight on some interesting facts about this process. Did you know?

• All pesticides on the market must first be approved by Health Canada. • The approval process involves a comprehensive set of over 200 tests. • Government scientists review all scientifically credible studies to ensure that the product will not cause harm to people, animals or the environment. • The process to develop and approve a pesticide takes an average of about 10 years. • Through this process,

pesticides receive a greater breadth of scrutiny than any other regulated product in Canada. • All pesticides are reviewed at least once every 15 years to ensure continued safety. Today, says CropLife Canada, up to 40 percent of the world’s potential crop production is lost each year due to weeds, pests and diseases. Without pesticides to protect crops, this loss would likely double. – www.newscanada.com

About two-thirds of Canada’s fruit and vegetable yields would be lost without pesticide use

Are you worried about produce and pesticides? Every year, a US activist group publishes its “dirty dozen” list of produce that the organization claims contain high levels of pesticide residues. This list has been thoroughly debunked, so everyone in Canada can continue to enjoy the benefits of safe fruits and vegetables, whether they are grown conventionally or organically. Here are some facts to back this up from CropLife Canada:

Did you know? • Fruits and vegetables are an essential part of a healthy diet. • Farmers rely on pest control tools to protect crops against threats to healthy plants. • 68 percent of Canada’s fruit crops and 65 percent of vegetable yields would be lost without pesticide use. • More than 99 percent of our produce was well below Canada’s pesticide residue

limits. • Health Canada stringently tests all pesticides before they can be used on crops. • Crop protection products are among the most rigorously regulated products in the country. • Experts agree that eating a diet rich in fresh produce, no matter how it is grown, is good for your health. – www.newscanada.com

Why Canadian farmers grow genetically modified canola Developed and grown in western Canada, the seeds of bright yellow canola crops are crushed to produce healthy oil for cooking and baking. The vast majority of our farmers choose to grow canola that has been modified to be resistant to herbicides. This allows farmers to treat their crops with herbicides to control weeds without harming the plant. “Weed control is essential in canola production,” says Alberta farmer, Jay Schultz. “Because if weeds take over they can take up a lot of yield by robbing canola of nutrients, space and sunlight.” Biotechnology has played a major role in Canada’s robust canola industry. According to a report from CropLife Canada, canola yields have increased by 20 percentage points between 2000 and 2009, largely

thanks to plant biotechnology. Schultz says he uses two types of genetically modified herbicide-tolerant canola to maximize his yields

and protect his land from weeds. The two different types of canola are resistant to different kinds of herbicides, which allows him to alternate the weed control

products he uses and this prevents the weeds from becoming resistant to any one herbicide. “Having access to different types of herbicide tolerant canola is important because it allows us to rotate the herbicides we use and stay ahead of resistance,” Schultz points out. Herbicide tolerant canola helps farmers grow more on existing farmland and offers important benefits for the environment. Since farmers can control weeds with a herbicide, it means they don’t have to till the fields with a tractor to remove them. The less that farmers have to disturb the soil with mechanical equipment, the better, says Schultz. By reducing tillage, farmers dramatically improve the health of their soil – increasing organic matter, reducing erosion and increasing moisture retention.

Since adopting herbicide tolerant canola, 86 percent of producers say they have reduced soil erosion, according to the Canola Council of Canada. Genetically modified crops, including herbicide tolerant canola, help Canadian farmers produce one

Weed control was revolutionized by the introduction of selective herbicides in the 1940s and 50s and that allowed a crop to get the upper hand and achieve significantly higher yields. Seed treatments are another innovation that resulted in a very targeted application of small amounts of pesticide. These products create a protective barrier around a seed to provide protection against insect and disease damage before it happens. “This gives the seeds a

chance to get rooted and established in the soil for the best chance at survival and growth into a strong, healthy plant,” Petelle explains. “This technology has been incredibly advantageous for farmers and the environment.” Another tool in the fight against insects, weeds and diseases is plant biotechnology. About two decades ago, farmers started to grow biotech crops, which were improved to resist insects and withstand herbicide treat-

How 5,000 years of crop protection has fed the world

Where there has been agriculture, there have been pests. Where there have been pests, there has been pest control. The science is a fascinating one, enthusiasts explain. Some of the earliest methods of crop protection were oil, ash and sulfur, used by Greeks and Romans to control insects. Herbs and tobacco were popular with farmers in the 1600s, while sulfur and copper were used to protect fruits and vegetables in the 1800s. In more modern times, farmers progressed to more advanced, man-made methods of protecting their plants. Agricultural technology has grown in leaps and bounds since the 1930s, when synthetic pesticides hit the market. “Farmers today have access to some of the safest, most effective pesticides ever developed,” says Pierre Petelle, vice-president of chemistry at CropLife Canada. “These tools allow them to protect their crops and produce higher yields than we’ve ever seen before.”

of the safest and most abundant food supplies in the world – and do it in a sustainable way. This technology has helped to make an international success of our country’s canola industry, which is now at almost $20 billion a year in revenue. – www.newscanada.com

Create play areas that keep kids safe

This year, for Canadian Agricultural Safety Week, the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association is working towards “Keeping Kids Safe” as a part of the three year theme of “Be An AgSafe Family”. A part of keeping kids safe on the farm is creating, using and maintaining a safe play area. Play teaches children cooperation. Play helps children improve their balance and coordination, strengthen their muscles, develop eye-hand coordination and enhance their fine motor skills. Play also challenges kids’ imaginations, play makes them think and makes their minds bend and stretch and grow. Play teaches children how to problem-solve and how to be part of a team. And play lets kids be kids. By having a safe play area, children can experience the joys of play and reduce the risk of injury on the farm. Location matters. The old saying location, location, location applies to creating a safe play area. A safe play area should be designated by physical barriers such as fences, gates or shrubs. It’s important that the play area is away from the majority of farm activity. Keep in mind traffic, livestock, farm machinery, open water and noise when deciding where the play area should be located. Make

sure the location is free of hazardous plants like poison ivy and pests like wasps. Ensure that there is sufficient shade and is free of obstacles like power lines or unstable structures. Also, make sure the location of the play area is within sight and hearing distance of a responsible adult. When selecting a location for the safe play area make sure to keep in mind how much space the children using it will need. A small area appropriate for a three year old, won’t be as useful for a faster and bigger 10 year old. Equipment matters too. A big factor in creating a safe play area is having safe equipment that kids want to use. It’s not going to help anyone if a play area has been created and the kids don’t use it! Playground equipment, a clubhouse, balls, balance beams, and swings are all great ideas to include in your safe play area. Make sure that they are hazard free and secure. (Protrusions like bolts can be hazardous while playing.) It’s essential that all play equipment be wellmaintained and safe. Maintaining and improving the play area is an on-going task. Develop a routine inspection and maintenance plan that includes keeping the grass mowed, checking equipment

Sign a kid and parent farm safety contract A contract is an essential business tool. Rental contracts, supply management agreements and production contracts are some types of formal agreements that a farmer might sign in the daily running of the farm. Even when employing a farm worker, an agreement is set up. Rate of pay, benefits, hours of work and expectations are all detailed in writing to protect both the employer and the employee. It’s always a good idea for two parties to get an agreement in writing, and that holds true with parents and kids too. Farm kids are lucky to grow up on a farm. They learn the value of hard work and gain respect and love for the land. Of course, along with all of the positives of growing up on the farm, farm kids are also exposed to hazards and risks that can put their safety and health in jeopardy. So, instead of yelling or lecturing farm kids about safety, why not work together to write down the safety rules for your farm? A farm safety contract has all sorts of benefits. Not only does it instill the importance of safety, but it gives the child a sense of control over rules that affect them directly. Kids, just like adults, need reasons for rules. A lecture or a “because I said so” might make sense to a parent, but might not make much sense to a kid. Taking the time to explain why some areas on

the farm are off limits or why there are rules around livestock can help children understand the importance of safety rules. Sometimes it’s not easy to start talking about sticky subjects, however, using a contract can open up problem-solving communication. Listening is just as important as talking when negotiating a contract. Parents may even learn something from their child just by taking the time to discuss and negotiate farm safety rules! A contract is also very meaningful to the parties that sign it. Even to a young person, a contract is important and serious. Signing a contract with your child shows that you have respect for them and the safety rules on your farm. Lastly, a contract teaches kids the importance of commitments and obligations. A signature on a contract means they are committed to following the rules. It is a reminder of a promise. This reminder can help them make better choices to protect their safety. For Canadian Agricultural Safety Week, the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association has developed a Kid and Parent Farm Safety Contract that can be found at agsafetyweek.ca. This contract is customizable to your farming operation. It’s intended to be a way to open up the conversation about hazards and risks on your farm. – Canadian Agricultural Safety Association

for loose or broken parts, adding protective ground surfacing and reviewing safety rules. Make improvements as needed and modifications as children outgrow the existing play equipment. There are no guarantees that any play area is truly safe. Children can sometimes be unpredictable, and they don’t always make the safest choices. What we can do is create, use and maintain a safe play area. Combined with careful, competent supervision, a safe play area can help reduce the risk to children on the farm. According to the National Children’s Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety, there are six steps in developing a safe play area. Here they are for quick reference: 1. Locate a site to be developed into a safe play area. The location should provide maximum play options with minimum exposure to agricultural hazards. 2. Sketch out the ideal play area for that site, considering ways to promote fantasy, manipulative, swinging, climbing and riding activities. Plan for modifications in play activities as children grow. 3. Determine materials needed. Make, buy or adapt for different play activities. Refer to playground equipment websites or other resources for specific guidance related to residential play areas. 4. Build the play area including appropriate ground surfacing, borders, fences and gates. Older children can assist with this process if they are supervised. 5. Use the play area. Explain safety rules and post signs if needed. Think about immediate modifications and future changes based on how the area gets used. 6. Maintain and improve

the safe play area. Develop a routine maintenance plan that includes keeping grass mowed, checking equipment for loose or broken parts, and reviewing

safety rules for visitors. Let older children help with inspection and maintenance because this enhances their ownership and reinforces the importance of telling

adults about possible hazards. Make improvements as needed and modifications as children grow. – Canadian Agricultural Safety Association

Close call still teaching family respect for farm safety By Amy Petherick

Teaching kids to respect hazards is an important part of raising children safely on the farm and much can be learned from close calls. Growing up on the family farm near St. Malo, MB, the Racine children experienced their own close call while playing in a large truck. All five kids had free range of the family’s grain farm and made toys of anything they could find. Monique Racine remembers how their imagination knew no bounds and how fearless they were. “When I was a kid, we weren’t afraid to take a hammer and nails, and just put them into a piece of wood,” Monique recalls. “I remember taking a drill and drilling holes in aluminum bowls!” During the harvest season of 1986, everything changed. Monique and her younger brother, Patrick, took lunch to her father and older brother in the field. As they had done before, she and Patrick were playing in the truck box where the wheat was being unloaded. Patrick remembers waving hello to his brother in the combine as it unloaded into the truck box around him. He hadn’t

He vividly recalls suddenly struggling to pull his arms out of chest-high wheat and looking over to see Monique was worse off. “The wheat was above Monique’s nose and eyes already, so I got my left arm out to scoop enough wheat

away from her mouth and nose constantly,” he says. “The pressure of the wheat on my chest was so heavy, I was trying to breathe so hard but I couldn’t, so I panicked...it was a nightmare.” Outside of the grain box, his father, Emile, had returned in another truck to take the next load of wheat

Is this the demise of the honeybee?

Bees flitting from one newly sprouted flower to another as they collect pollen is one of the more common sights of the spring. Honeybees are content to buzz between plants for hours. But in recent years the honeybee population has declined considerably, and scientists and environmentalists continue to study and debate why bees seem to be dying out. Although bees are best known for their honey production, their symbiotic relationship with nature goes much further. Honeybees are instrumental in transferring pollen from plant to plant, which helps to foster new life for many agricultural species. In addition to wild flowers and other plants, bees pollinate many of the crops that end up as food on dinner tables across the globe. Bees help pollinate more than 90 commercially grown field crops, citrus and other fruit crops, vegetables and nut crops. Without these insects, crop yields would decrease dramatically, and some foods may cease to exist. Without bees, food production would diminish and the prices of produce would skyrocket. Commercial beekeepers in the United States have reported deaths of tens of thousands of honeybee colonies. Ninety percent of wild bee populations in the United States have disappeared, according to Target Health, Inc. In the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, bee species have declined considerably, and some have even become extinct.

from the field and had expected to see the two younger kids around. Emile is not sure what it was that made him think they might be in the back of the truck. “I came to the field to see no kids in the truck, and I just panicked,” he explains. “I automatically went to the back of the truck, opened the gate, and they both came out.” Patrick says he can clearly remember Emile was “as pale as a white wall” as he knelt down to check them both over. “They were both OK but that was a very close call,” Emile says. “After that, I told them that they had to stay home.” No one was allowed to play on equipment anymore and Monique says none of the kids could see the fun in it after that anyway. The new farm policy became ‘if you can’t count five heads in the yard, you can’t start up or move equipment.’ Emile bought two way radios shortly after that so there could be more communication about where the kids were supposed to be and fortunately, they never had another close call after that. Now that the kids are grown and bring the grandchildren to the farm, those safety policies are as important as ever. Patrick says maintaining eye contact is a good policy but he’s learned the value of conducting walk arounds too. He’s moved away from the farm and says it’s a mandatory practice on his construction worksite. Fa-

tal accidents in the past have proven the equipment is simply too big to see everyone from the cab. In his opinion, walk arounds ensure you really know your surroundings as an operator. “Where I work, you walk around, make sure there’s no one behind you, and no one near the equipment,” he says, “no matter what.” Monique says their family had to learn their commitment to safety the hard way and she’s determined to teach her four year old daughter without another close call. If constant su-

pervision isn’t a guarantee, Monique says she won’t let her daughter be in a position where there’s a potential safety risk. “If she’s going to go in the shop where there are chemicals, I know her, and curiosity’s gonna take over.” That’s why Monique strongly believes it’s ultimately up to parents to ensure the safety of their children. If that means insisting on hazards being put under lock and key, dedicating a babysitter to constant supervision, or simply declaring ‘no-go’ zones, then that’s what she believes parents should do.

Agriculture is our way of life too

Honeybees pollinate many of the world’s plants. But their numbers are on the decline, and the environmental impact of that decline is significant. Since 2006, millions of honeybees have died off due to a phenomenon called Colony Collapse Disorder, or CCD. CCD refers to the absence of adult honeybees in a colony with few or no adults remaining. Worker bees simply disappear, leaving behind the queen and vulnerable developing young. Bees are not usually known to leave the hive unguarded. While similar disappearances have been documented in the last 100 years, those incidences have grown considerably in recent years. Officials in the United States Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency have not been able to determine why the honeybee population has undergone such a steep decline, though some believe that a complex combination of factors, including parasites, lack of genetic diversity, poor nutrition, and pesticides, could be re-

sponsible. Examination of dead bees has found residues of more than 100 chemicals, insecticides and pesticides, including some used to control parasites, in bee hives. Other factors that come into play involve climate changes that affect wildflower production. Without wildflowers, bees have no sources of food. Rainy, wet or overly dry weather can wreak havoc on the landscape, resulting in fewer flowers and, as a result, a smaller bee population. Scientists are still studying the situation and working toward a solution to restore the honeybee population. Individuals can do their part by keeping plenty of blooming flowers in their yards and never killing honeybees found on their property. Disturbing an established hive can result in the bees abandoning their work, leading to even greater losses.

FCC gives Canada’s young farmers a boost Farm Credit Canada (FCC) is adding $500 million to its ongoing commitment to a loan program aimed at helping young farmers become established in the industry. Launched in March 2012, FCC’s commitment to the Young Farmer Loan has grown to $2 billion over four years, with almost 6,000 loans worth more than $1.3 billion approved, as of Dec. 31, 2015.Shawn and Natalie Paget with son Oliver “FCC is proud to support the next generation of farmers through every stage of their career,” FCC President and CEO Michael Hoffort said. “Products like the Young Farmer Loan can make a real difference for producers looking to enter the industry or grow their business.” The Young Farmer Loan provides qualified producers, under age 40, with loans of up to $500,000 to purchase or improve farmland and buildings. The loan includes variable lending rates at prime plus 0.5 per cent, a special fixed rate if producers choose that avenue of repayment and no loan processing fees. Shawn Paget, owner of Riverview Farm Corporation, used a Young Farmer Loan three years ago to acquire more land for his Hartland, New Brunswickarea potato farm. “FCC’s Young Farmer Loan was exactly what we needed to expand our op-

erations in order to grow a wider variety of cash crops, such as soybeans, corn and cereals,” Paget said. “Access to flexible financing is very important when you are starting out or trying to become more established in the industry. It’s more than a loan – it’s an investment in the future of farming.” Enabling young producers to borrow with no fees at affordable interest rates helps them develop a solid credit history and build their business. “The long-term success of Canadian agriculture relies heavily on our ability to attract and retain young, innovative people to the business of agriculture,” said Lawrence MacAulay, minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. “By helping the next generation become established in this vital industry, FCC is fulfilling an important part of its mandate and a key commitment of this government.” To find out more about the demographic impact of young farmers on Canadian agriculture, read the latest Ag Economist blog post at www.fcc.ca/AgEconomist. The Young Farmer Loan enhances FCC’s suite of existing products and services that support young producers, such as the FCC Transition Loan, FCC Ag Knowledge Exchange events, FCC Publications, FCC on Campus, and FCC Management Software for both accounting and field management.

In 2014-15, FCC approved more than $2.4 billion in financing to farmers under age 40, representing more than one-quarter of the $8.6 billion in disbursements last year to help customers expand or start their operations. For more information on the FCC Young Farmer Loan, visit www.fcc.ca/ youngfarmerloan or producers can call the local FCC office at 1-800-387-3232.

How to eradicate poisonous weeds

Weeds are a nuisance to gardeners and farmers, competing with flowers and crops for sunlight, moisture and nutrients. And then there are noxious weeds like wild parsnip and giant hogweed. While these invasive species look like innocent flowering weeds, they can cause serious damage to people and pets, so here’s what you should know according to CropLife Canada. Wild parsnip is a yellow-flowered invasive species that grows in ditches, wooded areas, and even on lawns. Giant hogweed is a close relative and is identifiable by its size and giant umbrella-shaped clusters of flowers. These weeds can also be found in vacant lots, along stream banks and roadsides. The sap from the leaves and stems of both of these

plants is very dangerous to humans. The damage caused by the sap is intensified by the sun and can cause severe skin burns, swelling and even blindness if the sap gets in the eyes. Skin burns from the plant often result in sun sensitivity that can last for years. In Ontario, these plant relatives are classified as noxious weeds. This means they are a threat to human health and agriculture and are difficult to manage. It also means that the province recognizes the weeds must be destroyed in the interest of public health. The safest and most effective way to deal with them is by using herbicides. The weeds spread through their plentiful seeds and grow voraciously. Simply cutting the plant back will not help, as the seeds can survive for

two to five years, and puts you at risk of exposure to the sap. Experts say herbicide treatments may be the best way to control the plant. Glyphosate is one of the most widely-used herbicides and can very efficiently control this noxious weed. Herbicides are usually applied directly with a small, hand-held sprayer to target the plant and its seeds. Large growths of giant hogweed can also be managed by directly injecting the stem of the plant with an herbicide. If you see these noxious weeds in your neighbourhood, take extreme caution to avoid touching them with your bare skin, and follow herbicide label directions. Eradicating them is the best way to keep everyone safe. – www.newscanada.com

Chef Craddock cooks up another award By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Chef Darren Craddock has become very adept at blending the ingredients of success lately. Last November he won Gold Medal Plates, which crowns 11 chefs in major cities across Canada, for the second time. That meant he qualified for the Canadian Culinary

Championships in Kelowna in February. It was while he was in Kelowna that he heard he had been named Saskatoon Chef of the Year. “I was nominated by the local chefs of the Canadian Culinary Federation (CCFCC) Saskatoon Branch through a two-stage voting process,” said Craddock. “It is an honour to accept this award for the second time;

Prepared for Kelowna wine pairing competition: Roasted Squash Soup with Armenian-Style Flatbread Cracker Plateau (seasoned with homemade 7-spice mix), on which were mounted many components to compliment the dish, Cashew Powder, Pickled Shallot & Mushroom, Goats Cheese Mousse and Micro Fennel Seedlings.

the first time was in 2012.” The Warman resident is executive chef at the Riverside Golf and Country Club, and proud to be a growing part of the legacy of the award. “I think it also shows my commitment to the Saskatoon culinary/food scene, my dedication to the chef’s association and the amount of hard work we put back into the community through fundraisers or charitable ventures,” he added. Craddock said the Chef of the Year award dates back to 1977 and means a great deal to each chef since it is awarded purely based on nomination from their peers. “It gives some sense of self earned achievement and respect, that you’re doing a great job and other professional chefs in the city recognize that,” he said. Craddock didn’t win in Kelowna, but he and his team buckled down for one intense weekend with three competitions in two days – a wine pairing competition, a mystery ingredient box competition and a major dinner competition where he prepared the same dish that won in Saskatchewan. With spring already knocking on our doors, golf season may start early. Craddock is currently gearing up for the season at Riverside and has already done some hiring. He caters to every day dining, and anticipates an eventful summer fitting in weddings, in-house catering and fine

dining dinners. Also coming up for the award-winning chef is the next big Chef’s Association event, the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo Gala, where a plethora of delectables will, no doubt, be on offer. Those ingredients? How about hard work, dedication, commitment, community involvement and of course, huge talent.

Chef Darren Craddock was recently named Saskatoon Chef of the Year, an award based purely on nomination from one’s peers.

Health Care Under the NDP, Saskatchewan’s health care system was underfunded and there was a huge infrastructure deficit. This is the NDP’s record when they had the chance to make a difference:

• 52 hospital closures

• 1,200 long-term care beds eliminated

• Longest surgical wait times in Canada

• Massive front-line staff shortage.

The NDP are now trying to convince people to use their same old failed approach in health care. Because of new ideas and a new approach, things have changed. • We’ve built or are building new hospitals, like the Moose Jaw hospital, Sask Hospital, North Battleford and the first ever Children’s Hospital • We’re adding 15 new long-term care facilities • Our surgical wait times are now the shortest in Canada • We’ve hired 650 new doctors and 3,000 new nurses

There’s more work to do but progress is being made.

NOTHING BETTER THAN A FINE WINE

Another large crowd made the 11th annual Ladies Diamond Dinner a success on Saturday, March 5. Presented by the Warman Community Association, the dinner held at the Brian King Centre featured wine and beer sampling, a purse auction, dozens of door prize draws as well as a silent auction and about a dozen jewelry draws, including a $1,400 diamond ring.

The association, which has been involved in the community for over 30 years, uses proceeds from its fundraisers for local projects including construction of the Prairie Oasis Park gazebo, various local sports groups, the Legends Centre, and provides scholarships for graduating students as well as many other worthwhile community ventures.

Chiefs Delisle advances to bounced provincial Senior C final by Thunder in playoffs The Delisle Chiefs’ hopes for a Prairie Junior Hockey League (PJHL) championship came to an end last week when they were bounced from the north division playoffs by the TriTown Thunder. While the Chiefs finished in second place and boasted one of the best regular season records in the PJHL’s north division with 31 wins, eight losses, no ties and one overtime loss; they fell in the first round of playoffs to the third-place Thunder. Delisle jumped out to an early lead in the series by winning the first game 4-3 on February 26 and the second game 7-1 on February 28. But Tri-Town came back in Game Three to win 3-2 in overtime. The Thunder evened the series with a 1-0 victory in Game Four on March 3. Tri-Town won 4-2 in Game Five on March 5, but the Chiefs won 4-3 in overtime in Game Six on March 7. That set the table for Game Seven in Delisle on Wednesday, March 9, which the Thunder won 3-2 in overtime. The Thunder are currently taking on the Saskatoon Quakers in the north division championship final series beginning this week, while in the south division the Rebels are playing the Capitals.

Warman Pee Wee A Wildcats advance to provincial final The Warman Pee Wee A Wildcats advanced to the provincial championship final series after edging the Martensville Marauders in the northern final last week. Both games were very close, with a single goal the margin of victory in each.

Warman goaltender Brodie Guenther was the difference in Game One in Martensville on Thursday, March 10. Despite being peppered with shots, Guenther stopped all the rubber that came his way to earn a 1-0 shutout.

In Game Two on Saturday, March 12 in Warman, the Marauders came close but the Wildcats held on to win 4-3. With the victory, Warman earned the right to play Swift Current in the provincial championship series.

Bennett (male 53 kilogram class), Easton Smith (male 65 kilogram class), Andrew Nilsen (male 69 kilogram class), Austin Martiniuk (male 73 kilogram class), Thomas Marcella (male 100 kilogram class), and Sam Weinrauch (male 115 kilogram class). One athlete on the wrestling team wasn’t able to compete because of a conflict with basketball regional competitions slated for the same weekend, but overall it was a strong squad, said WHS wrestling coach Jesse Reis. In an interview prior to the competition, Reis said he was confident that at least one of the athletes would make it to the medal podium. “Khris Lachance is a Grade 12 student and a very strong contender,” said Reis. “There are some tough girls in her weight class, but she’s been working really hard.” Reis said he’s happy with the growth of the wrestling

program at the school. “I’m impressed we’re able to send as many as we are,” he said. “All through the year, our novice boys have been strong. Those are the Grade 9 and 10 kids. Our novice boys won the Regina O’Neill tournament. “We also did really well at regionals.” Reis said Warman will be hosting the provincial wrestling competition next year at the Legends Centre. “It’s nice to medal,” he said. “I was a little surprised. We didn’t expect to do as well as we did. This is more of a building year; a year to gain experience; with our focus on next year.” Reis said the wrestling program is growing in the school and in the community. He noted that WHS alumni Micah Heide competed for the University of Saskatchewan Huskies wrestling team at the recent CanWest competition.

Sask Valley Vipers punch ticket to championship round With a 5-4 win over the Humboldt Broncos on Saturday, March 12, the Sask Valley Diamond Centre Pharmacy Vipers earned a berth in the provincial final for the second year in a row. The Vipers will face off against the defending provincial champions Yorkton Terriers in a rematch of last year’s provincial final. For both teams it is their third year in the final since the inception of the Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League in 2010-

11. The Vipers swept Humboldt in two straight games in the northern final, making this the fourth year in a row they have ended the Broncos’ season. In both games, the Vipers relied on depth to overcome a slow start. In Game Two, the Broncos jumped out to a quick 2-1 lead. In the second period, the Vipers controlled the scoreboard, getting three goals to give them a 4-2 lead. The third period was a tightchecking affair, and with

the Vipers leading 5-3 with two minutes left in regulation, the Broncos got a late goal. But it was too little too late. With the victory, the Vipers punched their ticket to the next round. The championship playoff series schedule is as follows: Tuesday, March 15 at Yorkton; Friday, March 18 in Martensville (7:30 pm); Sunday, March 20 in Yorkton (Full info at saskvalleyvipers.com )

Tapering: You are ready to taper your athletic training only after a few months of proper training. It is done to ensure that you are fresh for race day. To maintain fitness during this time, maintain intensity with AT runs and V02max intervals while reducing the running volume. Opting for interval training near the speed that triggers V02max can help you run faster. If you taper for 2 weeks (best for beginner runners), reduce your peak weekly mileage by 30% the first week and 60% the second week. For a 3-week taper, which is best for intermediate and advanced runners who have been running more than 50 miles per week, reduce your peak weekly mileage by 30% the first week, 50% the second week and 65% the third week.

VCA Lions advance to Hoopla Clavet Cougars off to Hoopla

By MACKENZIE HEINTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The host Valley Christian Academy (VCA) Lions senior boys basketball team defeated Rosthern Junior College (RJC) 75-60 in their 2A Regional Basketball Championship final on March 12. With the win, the Lions advance to the SHSAA Hoopla provincial championships. “We’re very excited to go to Moose Jaw next weekend, and represent our school at Hoopla. So it was a good accomplishment by the boys this year,” Lions coach Brad Wall said. RJC started the game with an edge and led in the first quarter. The teams were evenly-matched and the score was tied several times. But in the final minutes, RJC’s momentum gave them a 19-14 after the first quarter. RJC finished the second quarter leading 33-27. The Lions began the third quarter with an 11-2 run and the adjustments they made at the half-time break seemed to work. “At half-time, we just met and made a few adjustments in how we were running our offence. We changed a few things up and it seemed to work for us,” Wall said. RJC never really recovered from that as they trailed 54-44 going into the final frame. RJC continued to battle, trying to make a comeback. They made a couple of big three pointers to cut the game into single digits, but the Lions continued to shoot well and play good defence. With the win, Wall was impressed with how the Lions were able to battle back in the second half, after trailing at halftime. “We never quit, and even when we were down at halftime guys said ‘lets keep a positive attitude and go out and work hard,’ and that’s what they did,” Wall said. The Hoopla tournament begins on Friday, March 18 and Wall expects the team to perform well. “We need to keep working on our shooting obviously, and just try to maintain good health so they can play our best games,” he said.

The host Clavet Cougars stormed out of the gate in their first game of their regional 3A senior girls basketball tournament last weekend, and didn’t take their foot off the gas pedal till they had earned a berth in the Hoopla provincial championship in Moose Jaw. The Cougars clobbered the Prince Albert Collegiate Institute (PACI) Golden Bears 103 to 14 in Game One. They went on to down Birch Hills in the regional final by a score of 68-36.

Bantam Wildcats set for provincial championship round By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Warman Bantam A Wildcats earned a berth in the provincial championship series after sweeping the Lumsden-Bethune Lions in the northern final last weekend. The Wildcats spanked the Lions 12-2 on Sunday, March 13 at the Legends Centre in the second of a two-game, total-points series. Warman was in the driver’s seat heading into Game Two, having won the first contest in Lumsden the week before by a score of 10-2. The Wildcats spread the scoring around, with Ryan Conlon (three goals, one assist) and Adam Power (two goals, two assists) both registering four point nights. Jaxon Martens and Cole Hardy each tallied twice and singles came from Dylan Ashe, Griffin Martens and Owen Tallmadge. Tyler Vanneste had three assists. Warman goaltender Carson Hall faced 26 shots, while Lumsden-Bethune goalie Carter Hein saw 37 shots come his way. Warman head coach Mark Campbell said despite the

lopsided score, his team worked hard for their win. “It was a good effort from everybody,” said Campbell. “We have a lot of great skaters and they’re in terrific condition. They don’t quit; they work hard every shift for the whole game.” He noted Lumsden-Bethune faced an uphill battle in more ways than one. “They had a short bench tonight, and came into the game with an eight-goal deficit,” he noted. In the end, the Wildcats’ stamina, firepower and solid defense were just too much for the visitors. Warman led 4-1 after the first period and 10-1 after forty minutes. Campbell said Hall is consistently reliable in net, as is Matthew Hennessey. “Goaltending is never a concern for us,” he said. “We have two competent, committed guys in net. They usually don’t get overworked but when they’re called on, they come up with key saves for us.” The Wildcats will face the winner of the Carlyle-Swift Current playoff in the provincial championship series. The Warman team is also working to keep their play-

off hopes alive for the league championship. “We lost our first game in the league playoffs, so that relegated us to the B side of the draw,” said Campbell. “We have the longest road to get back to the championship but the boys are confident we can do it. “It’s a lot of hockey in a short time. We’re just trying to stay as focused as possible and as healthy as we can.”

Air horns banned at city facilities Three Warman minor hockey teams are heading into championship rounds in their respective divisions of provincial playoffs, but fans will have to make noise the old fashioned way. The City of Warman has

adopted a new policy that prohibits the use of personal electric or compressed gas air horns in indoor recreational facilities owned and operated by the city. The policy was adopted on Friday, March 11 and is ef-

fective immediately. Under the policy, only mechanical air horns installed and operated by the facility are allowed to be used, and these horns will be equal to or lower than the approved decibel level.

Skaters aged 3 to 18 took to the ice in colourful circus-themed costumes for the Clavet Skating Club wrap-up show on March 12. The club boasted 48 members this year and celebrated its 25th anniversary this season.

From cute to elegant on ice

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Ranging from tots to teens, members of the Clavet Skating Club showed off their skills in a beautifully choreographed event on Sunday. Skaters fleshed out the theme, “Under the Big Top” as clowns, circus animals, a juggler, magician, fortune teller, elephants, mimes, can-can dancers and more. “It’s an important event for the kids to show their friends and their family and their community the special things they’ve learned throughout the year,” said club president Crystal Wright. Wright attributes the successful show in large part to the coaches, who planned the theme “Under the Big Top,” selected suitable music and choreographed each number. Colourful costuming and strategic lighting enhanced the show. “It’s a special night to recognize our coaches. They’re excellent! We’re very proud of what the coaches bring to the club as well,” Wright added. A lot of the skaters, both junior and senior, went to competition this year as a group. Wright said it helped to build a sense of team. “I think this club is really achieving that this year.” This year’s club boasts 48 skaters ranging from age 3 to Grade 12. Two of them belong to Wright – the jester and the clown ‘that was bugging me for treats.’ “That’s a good year. We’d love to have more,” she said. As skaters develop, they learn to work towards a goal, gradually gaining confidence to

Wright acknowledged tremendous volunteer support, from setting up equipment to running the popcorn machine, parents putting up decorations, organizing raffle baskets and more. “I think it’s a beautiful event to show the importance of community and how children’s activity can pull people together.” The Clavet Skating Club celebrated its 25th anniversary this season. Former president Bev Fedoriuk got emotional as she reflected on how the how has changed and progressed

over the years. “The founding members poured their heart and soul into the development of the club in its infancy,” she said. “Their passion for the sport and desire for growth and success was instilled in future members and club leaders. “The founders would be extremely proud of the club today and its vibrant leadership. We have a strong skating family with a lot of appreciation for the club’s roots and a desire for continued success on and off the ice.” A ‘world famous’ strawberry shortcake was served at intermission, which was a lot like icing on the cake.
