CAA School Zone Safety Reminders Saskatchewan students returned to school this week

The top two hazardous driving behaviours that motorists perform in a school zone, as reported in a recent CAA Study, are speeding and distracting driving. For pedestrians, the top two risky behaviours are jaywalking and failing to look both ways before crossing the street. With students returning to school this week, CAA Saskatchewan has some school zone safety reminders for motorists, students, and parents/guardians. CAA School Zone Safe-

ty Tips for Motorists: • Observe and obey the posted speed limits and hours that the speed limits are enforced in school zones, parks and playgrounds. • Be aware of the CAA School Safety Patrollers on duty during school days and follow their instructions. • Eliminate distracted driving and focus on the task of driving safely. • Drive according to the weather and road conditions. • Allow children and fam-

of your surroundings. CAA School Zone Safety Tips for Parents and Caregivers: • Obey the ‘no stopping’ and ‘no parking’ zones in front of or near schools. • Ensure winter apparel such as toques and scarves do not obstruct children’s vision or hearing. • Always have an adult, older student or sibling, walk with younger children. • Share the CAA Family Safety Booklet with your loved ones for winter safety tips.

Many schools in Saskatchewan have volunteer CAA School Safety Patrollers on duty. CAA Saskatchewan has owned and managed the CAA School Safety Patrol program since 1951 and approximately 4,600 patrollers from 161 schools representing 71 communities in our province are enrolled in the program. CAA Saskatchewan provides training manuals with patroller exams, patroller handbooks, reflective stop paddles and vests, all at no cost.

Kipling restaurants change hands in 2019 Stop in for a steak at JJ’s Bar and Grill

By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net

Whether you’re stopping in for a quick game of pool, a cup of coffee or the full meal deal you’re guaranteed to get a friendly welcome from new owners, Jessie and Juvan Aliado. They took over the business from Wayne and Wendy Chen back in October 2019. Jessie explains that it wasn’t really their plan to own this type of business but since Jessie was working there as a cook since June 2016, when the opportunity came up, she says her and her husband Juvan always had the desire to have their own business. Before working at and now owning the ‘pool hall’ Jessie used to work fulltime at PIC, part-time at Three Sisters and part-time as a cook at W2 Bar and Grill. Juvan is currently working fulltime at PIC and helps out

at JJ’s when time allows. Jessie and Juvan both grew up in the Phillipines and eventually made their way to Canada. It’s coming four years in April that Jessie has lived in Kipling. Juvan first made his home in Ontario and moved to Kipling in 2014. Jessie and Juvan have two daughters, Jasmine Aliyah, 7years old and Jheza Lee, 14 years old. The Aladio’s enjoy being in business for themselves. “Both of us are happy serving our customers. We are happy to see our customers…. For some it seems like it’s their second home!” They say they don’t have plans for any major changes in the future…yet. “So far we don’t have Sunday brunch or smorgs, but it’s one of our plans,” says Jessie regarding any changes down the road.

Kipling Stop & Shop has a new owner By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net

LJ’s Stop ‘n Shop was the latest business to be taken over by new owners. Rishi Pal and his wife Sandeeb Tiwana took over from Loretta at LJ’s Stop ‘n Shop on Dec. 10th, 2018 and renamed the business Kipling Stop & Shop. “Since I’ve been in Canada I always wanted to be a businessman because my life theory is ‘If you want to do work, work for yourself, not for somebody

else!’” explains Rishi. “You have a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders taking care of it. Even my father back in India he’s a businessman also. It’s kind of in my blood,” says Rishi. “I found out about the business through one of my friends in Indian Head and I came to check it out. I like this place very much.” Rishi has lived in Canada since 2012. He and his wife first attended Niagara College in Niagara Falls when they came to

Canada. “My wife studied Palliative Care and I took Hospitality and Tourism Management,” explains Rishi. “We moved again to Brampton, ON for immigration purposes but found it very difficult so we then moved on to Alberta.” In 2015 due to many circumstances they moved once more and this time to Saskatchewan, Regina to be specific, where they had friends. Rishi worked for these friends as a cook at Rock Creek Tap and Grill.

Rishi’s wife is still working in Regina so he spends most weekends back in the city. His longterm goal is to hopefully have a supervisor/manager to run the business and then he’ll run the business remotely from Regina. Although Rishi kept many things the same such as hours, menu, etc.; he has a lot of ideas for changes down the road. Fountain drinks, meal deals, adding a TV to the dining area, lottery terminal, and more. And farther into the future he’d like to have a breakfast menu from 7 am to 11 am. “In the future if I was to get a liquor license I’d really like to turn the upstairs into a bar. But that’s thinking way into the future! All the changes can’t come at once!” explains

Rishi Pal poses for a photo in his new business, Kipling Stop & Shop. Rishi. At the moment he makes the upstairs his living quarters. “This is my first business and in a small town it runs very smooth compared to a big city. There’s a lot of competition in the big cities,” says Rishi. “In

a small town you see many of the same customers and you get to know what they want and like. And you get to know them by face and name!” “I like to make my customers happy!” “I absolutely like it here in a small town,” says Rishi. “I’m a small town guy!....but my wife likes the city life.” “Five days I’m making the money and two days I’m spending the money,” he jokingly says. “Happy wife, happy life!” he comments. Rishi’s philosophy is “If you’re thinking something good…you’re going to do something good!” “My business life is just starting. I’d like to buy yet another business.” Rishi comments quite happily that he will be eligible for citizenship in February.

The Liang Family took over the Chinese café in Kipling from Andy and Kelsey Lin in early September 2019 and changed the name to China Liang’s Restaurant. Yafeng and SuDan knew the former owners and through family members were asked if they were interested in purchasing the business. The Liangs are first time business owners. After leaving China five years ago where they both worked as cooks they settled in Regina. They explained that they always wanted to own their own business and work for themselves. “We like the small town,” explains SuDan and goes on to say “the people are nice.” The Liang’s have two sons, Jason who is 3½ years old and Guang Tao who is 15.

Yafeng, Jason and SuDan Liang are the new owners of China Liang’s Restaurant. “We’ll keep the business going much the same as before,” comments SuDan and adds “although we changed the menu.” SuDan’s mom comes most weekends to help out in the restaurant and look-

ing after Jason. “My husband’s English is not very good so he doesn’t want to make any comments,” smiles SuDan. Although they both look forward to serving up a hot meal to their customers.

Editorial Don’t let local government hide Edgar Allen Poe wrote in The Purloined Letter: “The best place to hide is in plain sight.” Sadly, Saskatchewan’s municipal governments appear to be taking that to heart – and the province might just let them get away with it. The provincial government is now studying a bill to change the law which currently requires municipal and regional governments to advertise public notices in a newspaper. Those public notices can have major impacts on your lives. They let you know if your neighbor will be allowed to open a business on your street that impacts you, or if your town council will be making decisions that

cost you tax dollars. Why is the government considering this? It’s in response to a demand from the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA) and the Saskatchewan Association of Regional Municipalities (SARM), which represent the province’s local governments. They claim it’s to “create administrative efficiencies” and to ensure public notices get to areas in the province that are not covered by a newspaper. There’s one problem with that argument: there are no such areas. Every municipality or regional district in Saskatchewan has access to at least one community or daily newspaper.

The real effect of this law is that municipalities would have the option of publishing public notices in their local newspaper or publishing them on their own municipal websites. Have you ever looked for a public notice on a municipal website? What will happen? Public notices that the government wants the public to actually know about – ones that put them in a good light – will probably be advertised. Those that they don’t want you to know about will be “advertised” on their websites – hidden, as we said, in plain sight. Without these public notices appearing in your community newspaper, two

things will happen. You will be less informed about things that directly affect you, and community newspapers in Saskatchewan will close. That’s because public notices are a significant source of revenue for many community newspapers. In some cases, that revenue represents the difference between a paper being a viable business or not. And with local newspapers closing, you will be less informed than ever before. Social media and the internet are great for some kinds of news. But when you get to a certain size of community, the only information source is your community newspaper.

Kipling Rec Report Submitted by Susan Hengen, Recreation Programmer It’s a new year, and often with a new year comes wishes for new beginnings, new interests and activities, perhaps a new mindset . . . Consider picking up a new activity or revisiting one from years past. For individual wellbeing, make physical fitness and movement a priority each day for a minimum of 30 minutes. Enrich your soul and spirit by volunteering with one of the many community groups in Kipling – there are many opportunities for involvement year-round. Challenge your mind with a visit to the Kipling Public Library in their new location at the corner of Main Street and 6th Avenue, and explore all the new facility has to offer. Make 2020 a remarkable memory! Chair Yoga For Seniors will be held on Mondays at 1:30 p.m. at the Kipling Friendship Club, beginning January 13. Classes will be 30 minutes in length, and will involve stretching to enhance participants’ strength and flexibility. As these classes are suited to aging participants, all activities will be done in a chair – no floor work will be required. The classes are offered free of charge and are an initiative of Kipling & District Parks and Recreation, with support from the Community Initiatives Fund. Everyone welcome! Older Adult Fitness Sessions are on at the Kipling Friendship Club on Tuesday mornings at 10:30 a.m. 50 minutes of light cardio and strength, balance and flexibility training. There is no charge to participate, and the benefits are great. One of the biggest benefits of regular exercise in older adults is fall prevention. Regular exercise assists in preventing falls by strengthening muscles and bone density; adding mobility to joints and muscles; improving balance, coordination and agility; and strengthening the heart and lungs and improving circulation. The result is a person who is able to do their day to day activities with less fatigue, discomfort and strain. Anyone interested in curling on Mondays at 1:30 p.m. is welcome to join the 49ers Curling group – you don’t have to be 49 yrs or older, and you don’t have to register ahead of time. For more information, contact Karen

Bernat at (306) 736-8336. The Annual 49ers Bonspiel will be held January 20-22 at the Kipling Curling Club. Entry fee is $120/team ($30/ curler) – call Karen Bernat (306) 736-8336 or Marlene Gies (306) 736-2322 to register. FitKids is back for 2020, running on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Kipling School Gym, from 3:30-4:30 p.m. The program began on Tuesday, January 7 for children in Kindergarten to Grade 6. This year, parents must sign their child up for all sessions they intend on attending through an online link, as we have limited the number of participants. Parents and guardians can sign up at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70a054fabae2ba4f94fitkids . Children are required to wear running shoes and bring a water bottle – no food is allowed. FitKids is an initiative of Kipling & District Parks and Recreation, supported by the Community Initiatives Fund. Kipling’s Jr. NBA Program (formerly the Steve Nash Youth Basketball Program) will be running on Fridays, from 4:00-5:00 p.m. in the Kipling School Gym, beginning January 17. Flyers were circulated through Kipling School, with the link to register online for the program. (Registration must be done online.) We are in need of volunteers interested in coaching the program this winter. The program will be offered to boys and girls, grades 2-6, if sufficient coaches can be found. As a coach, you are offered a one-day training workshop and supplied with practice plans for the duration of the program. Anyone offering to assist with this program should call Susan at the Rec Office (306) 736-8440 or email kip.park.rec@ sasktel.net. Kipling’s Youth Curling Program continues on Mondays from 3:45-4:45 p.m. for Grades 1-3, and on Wednesdays from 3:45-5:15 p.m. for Grades 4-6 at the Kipling Curling Club. Through the Youth Curling Program, kids learn the basics of the game, with lots of opportunity to play. The program is offered at no cost, as it is an initiative of Kipling & District Parks and Recreation; however, kids are expected to bring a broom and runners and a slider if they have one.

Living by rules and regulations By Calvin Daniels cdaniels@sasktel.net

If there is one thing I am rather confident in, when I look toward the future of agriculture, is that producers will face more and more rules and regulations in terms of what they do on their own land. That is perhaps not a particularly surprising statement since there has been a trend in that direction for years now. Regulations rarely start here on the Canadian Prairies, but as new rules come into play in other jurisdictions they are often adopted here, albeit at times tweaked to specific situations here. As examples, farmers today face much more regulation when they go to trench across their land to drain a slough than they did a decade ago. The new rules developed as it was better understood that draining a slough might well aid the producer doing the draining, but the impact on neighbours ‘downstream’ where the water would flow might well be negatively affected. Farmers can also face localized regulations for the rather straight forward fall burning of straw, which of course creates smoke that can be an issue for neighbours, especially for urbanized clusters near the fields in question. There are also rules developed in the last decade, or so, regarding the disposal of dead farm animals. Simply dragging them to a fence line for the coyotes and magpies to clean up, being frowned upon, for some rather obvious reasons. Livestock producers also face new regulations when it comes to veterinary work on the farm. It is no longer a

simple case of going to the farm supply store to buy a bottle of penicillin and going home to self-treat a sick animal. The list of regulations will only get longer moving forward. Producers wanting to get a glimpse of what might be coming down the road need only watch international news, in particular in Europe and California, both locales where the urban voice is organized, strong and ultimately listened to by governments. It can be argued politicians should listen to those who put them in power, but often voters come at perceived issues from an emotional viewpoint rather than one based on good science and common sense. That can create some real issues for governments trying to appease the voters they need to keep happy to be reelected, and doing the best thing, for in this scenario, agriculture. That was the apparent case recently in France recently when the government established safe distances for pesticide spreading on crops near homes in an attempt to settle a debate between farmers and environmentalists. From Jan. 1, there must be a five-metre gap between sprayed fields and housing for shorter crops like cereals and a 10-metre zone for taller crops like fruit trees, the agriculture, environment and health ministries said in a joint statement according to a recent story at www.producer.com The government regulations haven’t made either side happy, not a surprise, but it does show how politicians have to juggle to try to develop reasonable rules and to hold onto votes.

Grace Edna (nee Levai) SZABO

December 9, 1928 - December 14, 2019 On Saturday, December 14, 2019 after 4 weeks in hospital, our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt and friend, Grace Edna Szabo, passed away at the age of 91 years in Calgary, AB. Grace was born in Langbank, SK on December 9, 1928 but grew up in Hamilton, ON, where she completed her high school. At the age of seventeen, Grace moved to Kipling, SK with her family and in January of 1951, married Joseph Szabo, and began her farming life. She remained in Kipling until July of 2019, when she moved to Calgary. Grace was a brilliant seamstress, an amazing vegetable gardener and a very hard-working and dedicated farm wife and mother. To help make ends meet she spent many years working at the local grocery store and then the hardware store. Grace was the ultimate multi-tasker, raising children, farming, working, baking, gardening, crocheting, knitting, and sewing. She made the most beautiful quilts for everyone, and delighted in making knitted sweaters for her grandchildren. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, and was happiest in the presence of her beloved family. She is lovingly survived by her son Glenn (Helene Tremblay) Szabo of Vernon, BC, (Jason (RaeAnne Moss) Szabo, Alexandra Tremblay and Charles Tremblay-Lavigne); and by her son Harvey (Cindy) Szabo of St. Johns’, NL, (Nathan (Thet Thet Thinn) Szabo, and Angela Szabo); and by her daughter, Nancy Waterbury, of Calgary, AB, (Ian Waterbury, Jeႇ (April) Waterbury and Nick (Meaghan) Waterbury). She also leaves behind the lights of her life, her nine beautiful great-grandchildren, Grayson, Kannya, Joseph, Gam, Emma, Levi, Brooklyn, Juliette and Natalie. Grace is also survived by brother-inlaw William Szabo of Victoria, BC, and by numerous nieces and nephews. Grace was predeceased by her husband, Joe in 2010; as well as her parents, Bert and Barbara; brother, Charles, and sister, Mary. A celebration of Grace’s life was held at McINNIS & HOLLOWAY (Deerfoot South, 12281 – 40th Street SE, Calgary, AB) on Friday, December 27, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. Reception followed in the Hospitality Centre at the Funeral Home.

KW Oil Kings win one out of four By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net

The KW Oil Kings have played a few games since the last report. Kipling vs Carlyle The KW Oil Kings welcomed the Carlyle Cougars to the rink on Friday, Dec. 20. The Cougars took an early lead of 2-0 in the first period and added two more in the second and an additional three in the third. The Oil Kings would score only two goals late in the third period; the first by Lane Roth assisted by Cole Hayhurst and Caley Bjork; the second goal by Rodney Reid assisted by Kienen Piper and James Hassler. The game ended with a score of 7-2 for the Cougars. Shots on goal were fairly even with 28 by the Oil Kings and 35 for the Cougars. The officials handed out only two minor penal-

ties to the Oil Kings. It was a different story for the Cougars – five minors and one 10 minute misconduct. ***** Kipling vs Arcola/Kisbey The following evening Dec. 21 the Oil Kings headed to Arcola to take on the Arcola/Kisbey Combines. It was a low scoring game with both teams only scoring one goal apiece sending the game into overtime. The Oil Kings goal was scored by Caley Bjork, assisted by Harcourt and again by Carson Harcourt, unassisted in overtime. The Oil Kings would end the 2019 year with a win 2-1. Few penalties were assessed with three minors going to the Combines and only one minor to the Oil Kings. ***** Kipling vs Carnduff It’s a new year and the KW Oil Kings welcomed the Carnduff Red Devils to the Kipling Arena on Fri.,

Do you have a story idea? Event you would like us to cover? Please call us, we’d love to hear from you! 736-2535

Jan. 3. Their game started off with an early lead with a goal by Cole Hayhurst, assisted by Harcourt. The Red Devils would go on to score three in the second period and added one more in the third to end the game 4-1. Goalie Austin Toth put on a fantastic performance stopping all but four of the 31 shots taken. The Oil Kings recorded 21 shots. Both teams spent far too many minutes in the penalty boxes. The Oil Kings with 7 minors and one 10-min misconduct. The Red Devils with 8 minors and one 10-min misconduct. ***** Kipling vs Bienfait January 4 th the Oil Kings travelled to Bienfait to take on the Coalers who dominated the game. Rodney Reid would score the loan goal in the second period, assisted by Harcourt. The Coalers would end the game with a score of 13-1. Very few penalties were handed out with three to the Coalers and the KW Oil Kings taking four. The Oil Kings next home games are Jan. 10th where they welcome Midale Mustangs to the Windthorst Arena for an 8:00pm game, and again on Jan. 15th they welcome Bienfait Coalers for an 8:15 pm game in Kipling.

Saskatchewan continues to grow Saskatchewan’s population grew by another 4,195 people in the third quarter of 2019, to an all-time high of 1,178,657 people. This represents the 54th consecutive quarter of population growth in Saskatchewan. “Saskatchewan continues to enjoy the longest and strongest period of sustained population growth since the 1920s,” Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “Since our government took office in 2007, Saskatchewan has now grown by nearly 170,000 people.” Last month, Premier Scott Moe released the government’s new Growth

Dr. Wendy’s Natural Life News “THE POWER OF HEALTHY HABITS” “Ordinary things, consistently done, produce extraordinary results.” - Keith Cunningham ‘Tis the season for New Year’s ResoluƟons – Eat less, Exercise more, Work less, Sleep more, Spend less, Smile more… Many of us start the New Year with great intenƟons and by the middle of the month most of us can’t even remember what our resoluƟons were. So, instead of falling into the ResoluƟon Trap, I suggest you do something every day you can imagine doing unƟl you’re 102 years old (ie something you can do forever, not just 2 weeks or 6 months). Scrap the resoluƟons and instead how about incorporaƟng some easy, healthy habits into your life. Ones that are easy, and will make you feel successful every day because they are both simple and healthy. 1. Make your bed. It may seem like a small insigniĮcant task, but as Admiral William H. McRaven described in the commencement address at The University of Texas on May 17, 2014. “If you make your bed every morning you will have accomplished the Įrst task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another.

Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy • Menopause & Hormone Balance Digestive Health Management Auto-immune & Chronic Disease Care Stress Support, Adrenal Fatigue and Thyroid Disorders

By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that liƩle things in life maƩer. If you can’t do the liƩle things right, you will never do the big things right.” Geƫng extraordinary results is about creaƟng simple habits that lead to a domino eīect in your life. 2. Drink 1 extra cup of water each day We all know that staying hydrated is good for us. It reduces unhealthy food cravings, improves our energy and it helps us stay mentally sharp. So why do so many people fail to drink enough water? Usually it is a lack of habit and convenience. If you are a tea or coīee drinker you need to Įll the coīee maker or teakeƩle to make said hot beverage. Why not simply Įll 1 glass of water at the same Ɵme and drink it then and there, and voila, mission accomplished. 3. Meditate or Pray for one minute. Consistency maƩers with all habits - especially things like meditaƟon or prayer. Inner work is tough to measure, and while we all want to be less stressed and more mindful, these goals oŌen seem elusive and challenging to make into a habit. The biggest mistake is trying to do too much too soon. Instead, make it small, make it speciĮc, and make it as easy as possible. Make it small. One minute. Make it locaƟon-speciĮc. The kitchen. Make it Ɵme-speciĮc. 7 am. Make it easy. You’re already in the kitchen waiƟng for your coīee to brew (aŌer you’ve had your cup of water) at 7am every morning. Why not meditate or pray while you wait? These may not be your habits of choice, but if you are prone to making and then breaking New Years ResoluƟons, I encourage you to take a closer look at what you want to do, break it down into teeny Ɵny pieces and tackle those Įrst. The sense of accomplishment and improvements in your health will be worth it. Wishing you all a very happy and healthly 2020! If you have any quesƟons please do not hesitate to contact me at Harmony Health Clinic 306-224-0012 or drwendy@ harmonyhealthsk.ca In Health, Dr Wendy

Plan to ensure the 2020s are another decade of strong growth for the province. “Our new Growth Plan includes goals of 1.4 million people living in Saskatchewan and 100,000

more jobs in our province by 2030,” Harrison said. “More people, jobs and opportunities means a better quality of life for everyone who calls Saskatchewan home.”

New decade; new approach to depression researched advice. “I’m so thankful to so many professionals and regular anxiety/depression suffers who worked with us to create a very practical set of tools that can be used anywhere, at any time to help people get through tough days, panic attacks or feelings of inadequacy and overwhelm,” says Froese.

While More Joy Regina is on Bell Let’s Talk Day, Froese said the event is about so much more than simply talking. It’s about getting real solutions and doing it in a joyful atmosphere. Joy will come in the form of a Steeped Tea Bar, a Serenity Lounge, a Cookie Bar and JoyLab photos booths provided by the Saskatchewan

Science Centre. Tickets to More Joy Regina are $55 for adults and $25 for university and high school students. They are available online at morejoy. ca or at these locations: Montmartre Pharmasave; Canadian Mental Health Association, Regina, 1810 Albert St; and Prairie Psychology, Regina, 2230 Lorne St.

Wawota News Myrna Olson A new decade deserves a new attitude toward mental health, according to Saskatchewan author and journalist Christalee Froese. That new attitude is all about dealing head-on with depression and anxiety and recognizing that none of us is alone in our mental health struggles. The founder of the More Joy Movement says it’s time to take mental health out of the shadows because keeping it hidden has led to an epidemic of social issues. “My dream is to make mental health an everyday topic that includes what might be causing us problems, but also discussion about coping strategies and how normal it is to struggle with anxiety and depression.” After suffering a nervous breakdown in 2011, Froese embarked on a two-year joy project to restore the happiness she’d lost. In 2018, the

book outlining her journey was released, becoming her publisher’s bestseller in just three weeks. While touring with Journey to Joy, Froese was made profoundly aware of how many people across the province struggle with mental health issues. Her response was to start ‘The More Joy Movement’ which hosts mental-health events and gathers joy-seekers together for a More Joy Challenge on Facebook. The second annual ‘More Joy Regina’ event will be held at the Conexus Arts Centre on Bell Let’s Day, Jan. 29. It will bring together provincial mental health professionals, depression/ anxiety speakers and mental health organizations to offer the public real-life experiences and treatment options. The four-hour evening is a fundraiser for the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), Regina Branch.

Keynote speakers Clint and Joanie Malarchuk will tell their story of surviving Clint’s suicide attempt, an attempt that left a bullet lodged in Clint’s skull. The NHL goalie has written a book, The Crazy Game, which outlines his life-long struggle with mental-health issues from anxiety and depression to OCD and PTSD. “Don’t suffer in silence. You will be surprised at how many people can relate to your struggles,” says Clint, whose neck and carotid artery were slashed by a skate in a 1989 game when he was in net for the Buffalo Sabres. Clint and Joanie are also part of the brand new More Joy Coping Card project taken on by Froese in partnership with the University of Waterloo’s Tina Chan. The cards are a set of 30 hand-sized mental-health reminders on a key ring. The front of each card has quick reminders while the back has

Visiting with the Keith Olsons and Jake Lamoureauxs were Kenton and Stacey Olson, Carter and Emmett of Regina. They spent three days here for an early Christmas. The community was saddened to hear the news of the passing of George Easton. He was 92 years. George was one of the nicest people you could meet. He was a farmer, a family man, a good friend and a faithful member of the United Church. Sympathy to all of the family members near and far. Funeral arrangements are pending. I am asking for help with my news!! It gets harder and harder each week and yet I know a lot of you are traveling and have company. Please take a moment to send me a text or phone me!! Remember my news column is only as good as YOU make it!! Christmas Memories.... Over the years each Christmas is different, different venue, different family members and sometimes different menus. But they are the same in that we are celebrating the birth of Christ and all have the message of peace and love. And they are all good!!! Visiting with Kay and Rhonda Dorrance during the holidays were Lori Kemmer and TJ, Watrous; Dan and Louise Dorrance and family, Churchbridge; Rob and Norma Fenske and family from Saskatoon and Sandra Dorrance from Paradise Valley.

The funeral service for the late George Easton was held at the Wawota United Church on Friday, Jan. 3rd. The large crowd was indicative of his many connections in the community. Interment will be in the Highview Cemetery at a later date. Last November 120 citizens of Canada received the Order of Canada. There are many categories, Medicine, journalism, politics, etc. I reviewed the list and most were from large centers such as Toronto, Ottawa and Vancouver. However one recipient was listed Regina and Toronto and her name was Valerie Creighton who was originally from Stoughton, SK. I remember her as a pleasant young girl in my grade 5 class in the early 1960›s. She was awarded the Order of Canada for her contribution to the growth and development of the entertainment and production industries in her home province and across Canada. She is currently the President and CEO of Canada Media Fund. Don›t forget to share your holiday news with me!!! 20012JJ0
