Southeast Saskatchewan resident decorates fence with more than 100 bicycles

By William Acri wacri@estevanmercury.ca

A farm family in the Carievale area has attracted a lot of attention by putting 100 bikes along their perimeter fence that runs adjacent to a road.

The Ireland family has been running their farm and living in the area for a long time and Darren Ireland thought of the idea to put bikes along his fence.

He has been putting the bikes up along the fence for about two years.

“I have about 100 bikes out there now and I have about 100 more to go there, all along my perimeter fence,” said Ireland.

Ireland likes to make his neighbours talk, which is why he decided to put the bikes on his fence in the first place.

“I was at the dump one day and there was a whole bunch of bikes in

the dump. I took a few of them home and ending up putting them on my fence, and I went back to get some more,” said Ireland.

The Ireland family also runs a small museum on their property, with about 12 buildings. One them is an exact re-creation of mid18th century Prairie church.

The family, over the years, had amassed a lot of antiques, such as horse drawn farming equipment, and they decided one day to finally put it all in a museum.

The Ireland museum has been an ongoing effort but in recent years has nearly been completed. Beverly Ireland, who also helps run the museum, said the family ended up going in the direction of the museum with all the items they had accumulated around the farm.

She said that since the museum first became real

some years ago, the museum is now about preserving farm life and Saskatchewan Prairie history by taking in donated historical items or using the Ireland family collection to preserve history.

Since he put up his first few bikes, Darren Ireland has been amassing more to dot his fence with bicycles.

“Since then I’ve gone out to different farms that

have had bikes and auction sales and that sort of thing.

We have a lot of people just coming by and dropping them off at our bridge,” said Ireland. “After they drop their bikes off, it’s funny because they can drive by and see their bikes up on my fence.”

He has also mounted some bicycles before those

family members were ready to stop using them.

Ireland noted that putting the bikes up along his fence isn’t the most difficult thing to do and he looks forward to adding some more.

“I’ve built a lot of this with oilfield tubing and any tubing I have left around.

I am going to be putting

more bikes up along my fence and I am planning one day to have the whole thing done up with bikes,” said Ireland.

“It doesn’t take long to put the bikes up, you just weld a rod on the bottom and away you go. It isn’t too hard, but it’s not a whole lot of fun putting them up in the winter.”

Colin Rosengren gets an experience he’ll never forget

Colin Rosengren says he will never forget his experience through the Give Hope Wings tour.

Rosengren was among the pilots selected to participate in the tour, which was a fundraiser for the Hope Air organization.

He paid an undisclosed amount to join three experienced pilots, Harold Fast of Spiritwood, Dave McElroy of B.C. and Russ Airey of Ontario, for one of the South American legs of the tour.

Fast, McElroy and Airey have been travelling more than 30,000 kilometres in North, Central and South America. Pilots have joined them for the journey.

“It was a pretty amazing experience,” said Rosengren. “It was quite eyeopening and inspirational.”

In Rosengren’s case, he joined the three pilots for the leg from Bueons Aries

on Feb. 5 to Rio de Janeiro on Feb. 12. Along the way, they stopped at several tourist areas in Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil.

Among the highlights was the Iguazu Falls, which is a large waterfall on the Argentina-Brazil border.

“It was really amazing and breathtaking to see,” said Rosengren. “I’ve never been to Niagara Falls, but these are supposed to be a little bit bigger, I think, and it was really nice, and the trail to get there, you’re walking through the rain forest.”

They were also able to fly over the falls, which offered a different perspective.

Uruguay was beautiful as well with its rolling hills, pasture land and agricultural land, he said.

“They weren’t really strict on flying routes or anything, so when we were

flying BFR in Uruguay, we could meander a little bit however we liked, so we were able to do some lowlevel sight-seeing,” he said.

After some encounter-

The Southeast College has announced it will once again offer first-year classes through the University of Regina for the upcoming 2018-19 academic year.

Delivery locations will once again include Estevan, Weyburn and Moosomin, while Indian Head will be

added as a delivery location due to increased student demand.

“We were very pleased with the number of students that we had in our first year offering University of Regina classes,” said Kelly Hilkewich, the vice-president of educa-

tion for the college. “Our students recognized some of the advantages to taking their first year at home, including small class sizes, convenient class times and delivery methods, and by far the most important, cost savings.

were there, we arrived in time to do some formation aerobatic flying with some friends they made along the way. They were actually Brazilian Air Force pilots who now do this aerobatic formation flying thing for fun.”

He had never participated in formation aerobatic flying, so it was a great experience to fly and talk to them afterwards.

Carnival was a busy time, but Rosengren was impressed with the city.

The scenery was great from the air.

The rain forest was impressive, and he marvelled at how dense it was. He saw miles of beaches along the South American coastline.

“It’s really all beautiful scenery,” said Rosengren.

“We had really nice, clear flying weather. I think there was only one short bit where we were above

But it was really an amazing experience.

I can’t say enough about those guys, the experience and the three guys who planned it.”

“We were there for a couple of days,” said Rosengren. “While we

clouds and didn’t have good visibility.”

Rosengren said they also met some very helpful people in the aviation committee.

“There’s nice people all over the world,” he said.

The whole Give Hope Wings experience exceeded his expectations.

He had been busy on his farm near Midale before departing, and didn’t have much time for research or planning.

“I went in without a lot of expectations or thought for what I was getting into,” he said. “But it was really an amazing experience. I can’t say enough about those guys, the experience and the three guys who planned it.”

It was an inspiring trip for multiple reasons.

Rosengren obtained his private pilot’s licence the day before he left, so it was good to see how he could travel anywhere he wants if he wants to take the time to plan it out.

“It certainly opened the doors to us in the future to realize that it is a possibility for us to do,” said Rosengren.

It’s also great to see three retired individuals putting their talents to good use to help others.

“When they’re doing a big trip like this, it’s an amazing experience for themselves, but they also wanted to make sure it was attached to a charity to do some good,” said Rosengren.

Hope Air is a charity that he hadn’t heard of previously, but it’s a really organization charity that does a lot of good by helping Canadians in financial need with free travel to medical care far from home.

Rosengren would welcome the opportunity to participate in another trip like this again. He sees the benefits of flying in groups, and how it allows people to travel to more exotic locations.

Southeast College’s university students will be able to take selected firstyear classes which lead to completion of the liberal arts certificate, or the classes can be used towards a bachelor degree in arts, education, health studies, pre-social work or the diploma in liberal arts.

Sheena Onrait, the college’s manager of marketing and communications, said the courses offered locally in 2018-19 will likely include English, science, sociology, Indigenous studies and math.

“It is those kinds of courses that are offered as first-year courses, and then are very easily transferred

line and live-streamed options that may also be applied to other programs at the university.

The college had 15 to 20 students enrolled in the first-year programs this year, including full-time and part-time students.

Three students were registered at the Estevan campus in the fall semestre, and one returned for the spring semestre.

The college hopes to have more students registered for first-year university classes in the 2018-19 school year.

Onrait said the technology used for the courses was well-received, and the modern university student is more accepting of technology-based classes.

The college will be hosting a number of open house events across the region next week to promote the first-year university courses it offers, to tour the college facilities and to allows students the opportunity to view the technology.

The open house at the Estevan campus will be on March 7 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

New outdoor rink has been a popular attraction

By David Willberg dwillberg@estevanmercury.ca

It’s been a little more than two months since the ice was installed at the outdoor rink at the Kin Play Park in the Hillside subdivision, and it has proven to be a popular place, not only with those who live in the northeast corner of Estevan, but those who reside elsewhere in the community.

The Estevan Kinsmen and Kinettes were catalysts for the rink, raising money for it and coming up with ideas for amenities. Since the rink was complete, Kin members have volunteered to operate and maintain the site.

Derrick Wilson, who is a member of the Estevan Kinsmen Club, said he has seen people on the ice every day he has been there.

“It’s definitely being used,” said Wilson. “A couple nights I have been out there, and there have been 25 or 30 kids at night, so

that’s good to see.”

He finds it encouraging when he sees that many children on the ice.

For those who want to improve their hockey skills, and eventually play at a high level, Wilson said an outdoor rink is a great setting to improve.

But it’s also great for those who want to get out and skate.

“It’s tougher to get out for public skates, so it’s nice to be able to have that option there,” said Wilson.

The users have provided a lot of positive feedback.

People have been respectful of the facility, and there haven’t been issues with vandalism or bad behaviour.

The Kin clubs have purchased a Zamboni that will be used to clean the ice surface. It arrived in midJanuary, but it needs to be switched from propane to gas before it can be utilized.

“It can be ran on propane outside, but you’re just taking a chance of your fuel supply freezing up,” said

Wilson. “We just opted to run it this year by taking care of it manually.”

It is currently being stored away from the park, since there isn’t a space to store it at the park yet. Wilson said it would have been a lot of work to transport the Zamboni in and out of the park.

“Next year it will be awesome to have that Zamboni, because it will make things a lot easier for taking care of the ice,” said Wilson.

The last couple of months have been a real learning experience for ice maintenance, he said. It’s tough to take care of ice when it’s really cold outside, because the ice turns brittle.

“I think the ice has held up pretty well,” said Wilson. “There have been a few times where we got some holes here in there, but that’s to be expected with an outdoor rink.”

A warm-up shack is going to be added to the park. It will have two dressing rooms that can be used throughout the year, as well as two washrooms and storage for the Zamboni and other equipment.

Wilson said a committee has been struck for the park, with representatives of the Kinsmen and Kinettes clubs, and they’re in the process of obtaining a price to construct the building.

They know the dimensions they want, and what they want for the shack.

“We’re going to put together some numbers, and our corporate fundraising committee is going to get out there and see what they can make happen,” said Wilson.

The goal is to have the building ready by July 1, when the Kin clubs will host their annual Canada Day celebrations at the park.

Emily Sauder and her mother Tina enjoy playing shinny at the rink.

Once it is finished, the building will be 24 feet wide and 40 feet long, which would be more than double the dimensions of 12 feet in width and 20 feet in length.

“I think the clubs’ big focus is going to be the shack,” said Wilson. “It’s a pretty big thing that we’re going to do, so it’s taken both clubs and all efforts to make that happen.”

Members of the two clubs have dedicated a lot of time to maintaining the facility, and Wilson said they would like to see people from the community help out with maintenance of the park.

Rod March, the parks manager for the City of Estevan, has been impressed with the operations of the outdoor rink. The local Kin club members have done an “awesome” job with their work, he said, just like volunteers do great work in maintaining the other outdoor rinks.

The new outdoor arena has also alleviated some pressure on the other rinks in Westview and at the Rusty Duce Play Park in Pleasantdale.

“You’ve got moms and tots, and parents and tots,

just skating and learning to skate, so it’s not just hockey,” said March. “There’s a lot of fun skating going on.”

The city provides assistance with the building at the Hillside park, making sure the washrooms are clean, providing timers on the lights so they’re not on all night, and helping out in other areas where they’re needed.

Wilson looks forward to seeing more activity at the rink. Once winter is over and the ice is removed, the cement pad will be used for activities such as basketball

and roller derby. Basketball hoops will need to be installed.

The Kinsmen club will host its second annual three-on-three ball hockey tournament at the facility, likely in August.

Player benches need to be installed, he said, so that the rink can be used by teams for outdoor ice hockey games next winter.

And they hope to paint red lines and blue lines on the ice, and have sponsor logos on the arena boards, adding to the atmosphere of the rink.

An absence of balance It appears Canada is getting further and further away from having a balanced federal budget.

The Liberals released their latest budget on Tuesday afternoon, and it contains the various goodies you would expect.

Some of it is good news. Gender equality in wages is a step forward.

We’re also all for improving the lives of Indigenous Canadians, although we’re a little skeptical on whether the Liberals have the right approach to make it happen.

Higher taxes for cigarettes? That will usually get the support of the majority of the public. More money for mental health?

Most will be supportive as we gain more understanding about mental health issues.

And a study on a national Pharmacare program is a step in the right direction, although it will likely be some time before such a program is implemented.

But it seems like this federal government wants to spend, spend and spend some more, and rack up an 11-figure deficit in the process. The deficit for the 2018-19 fiscal year is projected to be approximately $18 billion, and it seems like the Liberals have little intention, or desire, to return to a balanced budget.

These definitely aren’t the Liberals of the Jean Chretien and Paul Martin years when it comes to budgeting.

Now, when it comes to governments, there is a time and place for a deficit budget. Governments can justify those deficits with smart spending, and investments in areas such as health, education and infrastructure that have both short-term and long-term benefits.

But eventually you have to return to balanced and even surplus budgets. You can’t saddle future generations with the ramifications of large deficits.

You have to wonder if perhaps big spending resonates with some Canadians more than fiscal prudence.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was justifiably panned recently when he said that Canada’s veterans are asking for too much. If he’s going to say that, then the government’s expenses need to be beyond reproach.

While the budget contains some positive news in terms of spending for Canada’s veterans, it’s one area in which the public will tell you a government can do more.

The Liberals will have a hard time justifying their claims that they can’t do more for Canada’s veterans when they have an $18 billion deficit.

It’s also disappointing to see the remnants of the Liberals botched small business tax reforms from last summer. Once Canadians had a long, hard look at the reforms, and the negative impact they would have on entrepreneurs, the Liberals started to backtrack. They should have started over on the reforms, or scrapped them all together, rather than adopt the modifications.

The small business community in Canada is, understandably, concerned about how these changes will impact their bottom line, just like Canadians should be concerned with the deficit in this year’s budget.

Last of the classic two-door hardtops It has been a while since I have purchased my malaise era, 1975 Pontiac Parisienne and I think for most carmakers, 1975 and 1976 were the last years for the two-door hardtop body style.

In terms of sports coupes, each one made, from a Model T Ford to a 1976 Pontiac Parisienne, was either a two-door sedan or a two-door hardtop, and the car sales from Ford, Rand’s Dodge and General Motors (GM) from the early to mid 20th century showed that two-door hardtops were a more favourable purchase over a two-door sedan when looking for a sports coupe.

This massively changed during the 1970s, when the big three American automakers, being Dodge, GM and Ford, changed course on how to deal with the import car market.

Fisher was GM’s coach builder for a few decades and during the 1970s, they transformed muscle cars into fake European sports sedans with design inspirations coming from landau/ cloth top cars of the early 20th century.

The results were terrible and in 1977, when production of two-door hardtops ended, the only American car that embodied the rebellious sprit of ‘60s muscle cars was the Chevy Camaro.

Ford faired extremely well during this upheaval because their Mustang, which was introduced in 1964, was based on the British Ford Cortina and that was a small, fast and good-handling car, and luckily for Ford, import sports cars in the ‘70s were based on the same concept.

GM and Dodge, however, like Ford, had European sister companies with small sports car concepts available for revamping and introduction into the United States, but that never took place on a large scale.

That is partly because there wasn’t enough market share for GM and Dodge to do so.

Consequently, the majority of their cars during the ‘70s were personal luxury cars designed for cruising with ugly upholstery and landau tops.

Also, the cost cutting that the big three undertook on their cars during the ‘70s was brutal. They were experimenting with recycled steel, making body panels thinner, making frames thinner, using less iron in the construction of their engines

and the list goes on and on.

Additionally, the governmentmandated emissions control systems on cars from the ‘70s turned 1960s powerhouse engines into gas guzzling underpowered junk.

By 1977, every car made by the big three was a prelude to the horrible half computer operated, half vacuum operated small unibody throwaway cars that dominated the Atlas 1980s car market.

The only thing that was good about them is they were very good on fuel, but by the ‘80s, the Japanese, Italians and Germans were making some of the best sports and rally cars the world would ever see, and once again the big three were struggling to not get left behind by their competition.

My 1975 Pontiac Parisienne, or its identical brother the U.S. Pontiac Catalina, purchased as a base model with a big engine, shared a lot of qualities with its ‘60s muscle car ancestors and that’s what made it a good car.

You could get air conditioning and cruise control on a 1975 Pontiac Parisienne, but with a 400-cubic inch V8 with a four-barrel intake, it was a fast car as well and more importantly, it was a fast rear wheel drive two-door hardtop embodying the reckless fun that you got with a two-door 1967 Pontiac Parisienne.

Reckless fun are the key words. Doing burnouts and driving at 130 miles per hour into the sunset is what a lot of American cars were about in the ‘60s, and the last of them were the 1975 and 1976 models that were replaced with slow, super safe gas guzzlers, and as such, the American spirit that made muscle cars cool died.

It wasn’t just the body design of a two-door hardtop and what you might use it for that made it special, but up until the late ‘70s if you bought a car, it was your car. You could fix it yourself and it was built to make you happy, not some polar bear in the artic or a politician looking to get votes from environmentalists.

With the reintroduction of that concept with the Dodge Demon, Chevy Camaro ZL1 and the Mustang Shelby GT500, it is nice to see American car companies get back to what they are good at, which is simply building fast cool cars that are meant to make only the owner happy.

Estevan Police reward finding a safe ride home

By William Acri wacri@estevanmercury.ca

The Estevan Police Service (EPS) was out on Feb. 23, handing out Tim Hortons cards to people who chose to use a taxi to get home.

Officers left the cards, which looked like a parking ticket, under the windshield wiper of vehicles that police determined had been parked overnight because the vehicle’s owner found a safe ride home.

“We got a grant from SGI (Saskatchewan Government Insurance) to do a positive ticketing program and we have done this sort of thing in the

past,” said Police Chief Paul Ladouceur.

“We have gotten things for kids wearing helmets and rewarded people with coupons for good deeds and behaviour, and this time we wanted to do the same sort of thing but think outside the box,” he added.

In Saskatchewan and in Estevan, drinking and driving is a problem, he said, with this province having the highest fatality rate for impaired in the country.

He also noted that he and his officers wanted to find different ways when it comes to how to reward people for getting a safe ride home.

Paul Ladouceur

“Instead of giving people tickets for bad things, which is what we do a lot of the time, we gave out Tim’s cards this time around to people who made the choice to not

drink and drive,” said Ladouceur.

Ladouceur said that he couldn’t take credit for the idea because the officers were the ones who thought of it.

The feedback from the community was a bit mixed, but he pointed out that people were mostly happy with being rewarded for not drinking and driving.

“We had one local man online write that after finding a safe way home, the last thing he wanted the next day was to find his vehicle ticketed for an infraction. He expressed joy and was pleased to find a Tim’s card under his wiper from the Estevan

Police Service,” said Ladouceur.

“We have had a great positive impact from this Tim’s card campaign that we did, and we would like to continue it in the future, but its funding was made possible through an SGI grant and we have to be mindful of local police budgets,” he added.

Ladouceur believes that campaign was very important for more reasons than just rewarding safe drivers.

“What we did sends a positive message to the community and most importantly, these types of ideas with the Tim’s card giveaway, for example, build a trust between peo-

A7

ple within the community and the police that is very important to build and maintain,” said Ladouceur.

“We had a few people complain it was a waste of taxpayer money to do this Tim’s card campaign, but at the end of the day, in my view, this is money well spent,” he added.

When a life is lost due to impaired driving, Ladouceur said countless other lives are affected.

“We are the ones, with the fire service, who are pulling these people out of these car wrecks due to drinking and driving and one day we would love to not have to be doing that anymore,” he said.

Nominations still accepted for farm family award The organizers for Estevan’s Farmer’s Appreciation Evening are still accepting nominations for the Farm Family of the Year Award.

Jackie Wall, the executive director for the Estevan Chamber of Commerce, said the deadline for nominations has been extended to March 9.

“We just want to get a really quality cross-section of farm families (nominated), whether they be the traditional grain farmers, or a mixed farm or strictly a rancher. All of those are covered in this farm family (award),” said Wall.

The selection committee looks for a family that is innovative in their farming practices, as well as involved in the community through a variety of avenues.

Wall noted some past nominees have tried things unsuccessfully, but had a desire and drive to try something new.

She added that the winning farm doesn’t necessarily need to be in a family for several generations.

“Generally, that seems to be how farming is, but there have been some innovative people who have started small, and maybe it will be someone who is getting into the small marketplace farming,” said Wall.

Some nominations have come in this year, and the nominations for last year’s award will be carried over to this year. But Wall said the organizing committee would like to receive a few more.

The nomination package is easy to fill out, and doesn’t take too much time.

Anyone with questions can contact the chamber office.

The Farmer’s Appreciation Evening is a project of the chamber and the Estevan Exhibition Association.

Fun for different ages

From left, Robin Brewer, Rayne Mitchel, Audra Brewer and Shelley Jacques were among the people out having fun at the tobogganing hill in the Westview subdivision on Sunday afternoon. The sunshine and the warmer temperatures that day created ideal conditions for people of all ages to enjoy some fun outdoors, and the Westview hill was a popular place.

You are the missing piece

If I had to pick one Old Testament story to teach from for the rest of my life, I would pick David and Goliath in 1 Samuel 17).

It is familiar, easy to understand and full of lessons about important themes like fear, trust, faith, God and the nature of man.

As I read through the incident one more time last week, I was struck by a new thought: “Why did Saul allow David to fight Goliath?” Saul knew what was on the line. The challenge stated that each army, the Philistines and the Israelites, would chose a warrior and they would fight each other.

The loser’s country would then become the slave of the winner. With all that hung in the balance, why did Saul allow his nation to be represented by a shepherd boy with no fighting experience when he literally had an entire army of fighting men at his disposal?

Tim Pippus

of the Estevan Church of Christ Here is my guess. I think Saul sent David because he suddenly realized that David was God’s man for this job.

He understood that God had picked and prepared David for that moment. Certainly, that was David’s argument.

When told about how he had protected his father’s sheep by killing bears and lions, he emphasized that fact that God was with him (verses 34-37).

To David, and apparently to Saul, these events were

not flukes. Rather they were practice.

This theory carries even more weight when you remember how Saul became king. He did not seek the position. He was not from royal blood. He became king only because God chose him (1 Samuel 9).

Saul understands, from personal experience, that sometimes there is only one person for a specific job.

What has this got to do with us? Well, I wonder if we have forgotten to look for God’s purpose in our lives.

Maybe faith has become so focused on what we do and on our personal choices that we have forgotten that God prepares us and positions us to do certain tasks for him that only we can do. After all, “We are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do” (Ephesians 2:10).

God has opened some doors that only you can walk through. Are you ready? (Romans 12:1-8)

Taking a stance against bullying in Estevan

Several different groups came together at St. Joseph’s Hospital on

Wednesday afternoon to rally against bullying on Pink Shirt Day.

Residents of the Estevan Regional Nursing Home and the hospital’s long-term care area, as well as clients of the hospital’s adult day program and participants at Estevan Diversified Services (EDS), joined together to discuss their experiences with bullying.

More than 50 people listened to speeches, and some shared their stories.

They also enjoyed socializing over pink cookies and beverages, and each person present was given a rose.

Marian Huber, the spiritual care practitioner and the manager of the day program and volunteer services with the hospital, noted that each person present indicated they had been bullied, or they had witnessed bullying.

One person from EDS shared a story of how he had been bullied as a child, and how a teacher helped remedy the situation. A woman who lives in long-term care, who is now 90, said she was bullied in school.

“It really brought home that bullying has been going on for such a long time, but that the time has passed to allow it to continue, and leaving here, going forward, folks were saying … they were committed to ending bullying, and committed to celebrating our diversity,” said Huber.

She talked to the audience about the dignity of each person, and that bullying can be physical and verbal.

“As much as we like to point the finger at other

Federal government’s budget expects oil prices to fall to around $50 per barrel

By Brian Zinchuk brian.zinchuk@sasktel.net

The 2018 federal budget, released Feb. 27, did not have good news for the oil sector, with a forecast for lower oil prices.

In its supporting budget plan documents, the federal government predicted a drop in oil prices.

“Looking ahead, crude oil futures prices continue to suggest that the benchmark WTI (West Texas Intermediate) oil price will ease from current levels back to the US$50 range over the forecast horizon.

Private sector economists surveyed by the Department of Finance Canada currently project that WTI prices will improve modestly over time to US$62 per barrel by 2022. These private sector projections are broadly on par with those in the 2017 fall economic statement,” the document said.

In giving its reasons for this, the document said, “Global crude oil prices continued to increase in 2017, with the price of WTI crude oil averaging just under US$51 per barrel, compared with an aver-

age of US$43 per barrel in 2016. Prices were supported by stronger global demand and a supply agreement between Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) nations and 10 non-OPEC producers to restrain their collective output. As a result, in January WTI prices rose as high as US$66 per barrel for the first time since December 2014, before declining slightly in February.”

• • • • • Serving Southeast Saskatchewan for 35 years • • •

It noted the impact of growth of American production, saying, “Increasing U.S. production, driven by growth in the shale oil sector, has put a limit on price increases. U.S. crude oil production increased steadily through 2017, reaching its highest level in more than three decades. The U.S. Energy Information Administration estimates that U.S. crude oil production will increase further this year,

15 – 245 Ton Mobile & R.T. Cranes 27 – 45 Ton Pickers 15 Ton Carrydeck - 3.2 Ton Mini Crawler Tractor Trailer Units Pile Drivers, Telehandler Office Trailer Rentals Manbaskets & Concrete Buckets

limited producers’ options for moving their products to U.S. markets. As a result, the discount on the Canadian effective price vis-à-vis WTI has risen to over US$20 to date in early 2018, more than double its 2017 average (US$9.61).”

The Estevan Oilfield Technical Society’s (OTS) 59th annual Open Bonspiel will be March 23 and 24.

The two-day event takes place at the Power Dodge Curling Centre.

There will be cocktails, prizes and a buffet supper held, March 23.

Entries this year will be limited to 32 rinks, but more rinks will be added if the interest is present.

The reduction from a three-day event last year to a two day event is a reflection in part on the state of the industry and in the interest in curling, according to Conrad Meili, president of the Estevan OTS. “That’s a fundamental change,” he said.

Prior to the downturn in the oil industry,

the Estevan OTS Bonspiel had typically been a four-day event.

The entire event, including the banquet, will be held at the curling rink. He noted that when it was a three-day event, curling was reduced on the banquet day so that the supper could be set up for that evening at another venue. He characterized this plan as “more condensed.”

As the event is the main fundraiser for the curling club, holding the banquet at the rink helps it out, he noted.

Meili said 32 rinks is an achievable and repeatable number. Aiming for a number like 64 rinks becomes more expensive.

The entry fee is $320 per rink of four curlers.

Buffet tickets are $30 each. Registration information can be found at estevanots.com.

Estevan peewee team wins Prince Albert tournament The Estevan Tarpon Energy Storm took no prisoners – and allowed few goals – in their tournament victory in Prince Albert recently.

The Estevan peewee A team won the 16-team event after some lopsided victories along the way.

The Storm took on the La Ronge Ice Wolves in their first game, winning 9-0. They then took on the Saskatoon Bobcat Flames, winning 3-0. With a host team – the Prince Albert Sharks – in their pool, the Storm were ready, defeating them 10-0.

The victory gave them first place in the pool and a match with the Prince Albert Oilers in the quarterfinal. They recorded their fourth straight shut-

out in a 10-0 win.

That set up an exciting semifinal with the Bobcat Flames, who engaged the Storm in a tight back and forth battle, starting with Estevan’s Carter Onrait scoring on the first shift.

The game was close until the Storm’s Rylan Entz scored on a breakaway late in the third to break a 4-4 tie. After a pair of insurance markers, the final was 7-4 and set up a date with the Battlefords Barons in the final.

The final was the fourth time in a row the Storm have made it to the gold medal game, having won silver the last three times.

But on this occasion, the Storm pulled through with a 7-2 win to earn the tournament title.

Turnbull wins IMCA Modifieds race in Arizona

By Corey Atkinson sports@estevanmercury.ca

Never having been at the track in Arizona where he won a race didn’t stop Estevan’s Aaron Turnbull.

Turnbull won the Karl Performance Arizona Modified Tour race on Feb. 17, the only race he entered at the Cocopah Speedway in Yuma, Ariz.

“It was kind of cool to go down there and beat them,” said Turnbull, who’d never been on any of the tour before. “I didn’t do the whole tour, I just flew down there for the last three nights of it ... I think it’s only the second time they’ve done that tour.”

He’d never been to the track before and with some of the best modified drivers around, there were a few familiar faces in the event.

“Of the guys that were there, most of them run the Dakota tour,” said Turnbull,

a part of racing royalty in Estevan. “I’ve raced against them before and there were quite a few guys from North Dakota there too.”

Turnbull led from start to finish in the 25-lap race and took the day’s title over Ricky Thornton, Jr., who won the Dakota Classic Modified Tour stop in Estevan last July after a rainy, stormy evening dampened the Estevan Motor Speedway (EMS).

Estevan’s Kody Scholpp – third in the standings last year at EMS – also raced in the event.

Turnbull’s father Ed ran most of the races in the tour, which lasted 10 days in Arizona. In the other two races at Cocopah, Aaron Turnbull finished second on the third day and ninth on the first day in the main feature races.

“I just flew down for part of it,” Aaron said. “In his trailer, he can fit three

Strippers drop final of Melville tournament The Estevan Strippers over-50 recreational hockey team had a good showing at the annual Melville Moneymen Hockey Tournament last weekend.

The Strippers opened the tournament with a 7-6 win over Melville with Blaine Chrest and Keith Hamilton scoring a hat trick each and Rob Peloquin getting a single.

The second game of the tournament saw the Strippers defeat Dauphin 7-2. Kevin Pastachak scored three, while Hamliton, Dave Kosior, Steve Godfrey and Bruce Firth com-

pleted the scoring.

In the tournament final, the Stripped took a 6-1 lead over Fort Qu’Appelle by the middle of the first period. Pastachak scored three, and Jim Larter, Chrest and Kosior each scored singles. But the Fort Qu’Appelle team scored nine times before the end of the game and won 10-7. Pastachak scored the other goal, his fourth of the game, for the Strippers.

The Strippers home tournament is scheduled for Affinity Place, the Power Dodge Ice Centre and Bienfait Arena April 4-8.

cars in it and so we put my car in there and pulled it out for the last three days when I got there.”

Once the summer tour is over, Aaron said he tried to get the car a bit better for the coming season.

“Usually I’m just putting some new panels on it and doing some maintenance on it is all I can do in the fall,” he said. “I didn’t have much to do, just go over everything and make sure it was 100 per cent.”

Turnbull isn’t in every race in his hometown but did enough to finish in the top five three times and earn 110 points in the 2017 EMS season in the modifieds class, good for 19th place overall. He’ll be back for the 2018 season,

although not full time.

“We’ve got a late model 2 that we try to run all the big shows with the modifieds, and kind of get to the late modifieds shows in North Dakota. I don’t usually make it to every single

race in Estevan anymore but I make it so as many as we can.”

When he can, Turnbull will race but with a young family and a new business severely curtailing what he can do, it’s not

likely he’ll maintain the 50 races a year he used to.

For racing, “it’s a good thing,” he said. “It can keep the car a little fresher and keep up on maintenance rather than racing three times a week.”

Midget A Bruins provincial team falls in south semifinal The Estevan Bruins midget A run to the provincial playoffs is over.

The team lost 4-0 to the Prairie Storm from Balgonie on Feb. 26, dropping their two-game total goal series 8-3. The Bruins ran into a hot goaltender through most of the game and hit a couple of posts in the second and third period. The Prairie Storm move on to play Swift Current in the south final.

In Moose Mountain league play, the Estevan 1 Knights (14-4-2) will play Milestone (8-11-1) in Game 2 Sunday in Milestone while Tuesday and Thursday are Games 2 and 3 in the series between Bruins goaltender Nigel Mack turns a shot aside while defenders Connor Redvers 2 (13-6-1) with the Estevan 1 Fry (7) and Connor Hanson (10) watch for a rebound.

Bruins clinch second straight division title

The Power Dodge Estevan Bruins won their second consecutive Viterra Division crown with a decisive 5-1 win over the visiting Notre Dame Hounds Tuesday at Affinity Place.

With the game tied at 1-1 after the first 40 minutes, Estevan (31-18-3-2) forward Michael McChesney scored what turned out to be the winning goal on the power

play early in the third. Arthur Miller scored a pair of insurance goals seven minutes apart, and Kaelan Holt added the final goal on the power play for his second of the game.

Miller’s two goals gives the Bruins six 20-goal scorers on the roster this season, joining Holt, Hayden Guilderson, Zach Goberis, McChesney and Jake Fletcher.

Bo Didur stopped 28 of 29 shots

from the Hounds (27-23-1-4).

The Bruins were still missing Fletcher, Matthew Chekay, Johnny Witzke and Jake Tesarowski due to injury for the game, and only dressed 16 skaters.

The Bruins next game is scheduled for Friday at Weyburn while their next home game is set for Saturday against the Flin Flon Bombers.
