Mmmmm bacon and lots of it! By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net
Last Saturday the Kipling Community Center was once again the setting for a celebration of all things...BACON. Over 200 people came out to enjoy the 18 different ‘Sweet’ and ‘Savory’ dishes containing bacon that were offered up at the nine stations. So, what is it that draws people to the Great Saskatchewan Bacon Festival? Theresa Abrahamson from Pelly heard about it on the radio and talked the rest of her gang to head to Kipling to check out the event. “What better way to celebrate a Father’s Day Brunch.” Sean Duplessis, from New Brunswick and working around Esterhazy, heard about it on the radio and decided to come for the day. “It’s different…it’s awesome!” Vendors have their own reasons for coming to the Great Saskatchewan Bacon Festival. For example, Louie Dumangas of Vaderstad, a first-timer who entered in the Chev Savory category, says “It’s fun! There’s a bit of pressure to do good. My entry (Bacon Wrapped Cauliflower stuffed with bacon spinach pesto) was my own creation.” Danny Roberts, owner of Big Daddy’s Cookie Jar Bakery in Maryfield, a first-time vendor entered his dish (Sinful Indulgence Bacon Cookies) in the Chef Sweet category. “I came last year to see what it’s all about.” Roberts adds “Nothing was stopping me from coming and nothing was stopping me from entering! It’s an awesome way to spend a Saturday.” Head Chef Jonathan Sison of The Office Bar & Grill is a Bacon Festival veteran. This
was his third time as a vendor because he says “I enjoy the competition and meeting new bacon lovers!” Sison adds “It’s entertaining and innovative to make a dish that’s all about taste and presentation.” Their entries were a Salacious B. Crumb and a Bacon Cotton Candy Lollipop. Along with the tremendous food, this year’s Great Saskatchewan Bacon Festival also featured tattoos for the kids and entertainment by Eli Barsi and John Cunningham. And of course, there was the chance to enjoy the afternoon visiting with friends, neighbors and fellow bacon lovers. Emceeing the event was left in the very capable hands of Trevor Gowen. He interviewed many of vendors throughout the afternoon and asked the crowd at one point “Have you reached your bacon potential yet?” Winners from the event included: Home Cook Savoury - Natasha Waynert - Mozza Bacon Stuffed Meatballs w/honey garlic sauce; Home Cook Sweet - Megan Czarnata - Bacon Brownie w/ Bacon Carmel Sauce; Chef Savoury - The Office Bar & Grill from Carlyle SK (Executive Chef Jon Sison, Chef Bert Cera & Chef Paolo Sison) - Salacious Bacon Crumb; Chef Sweet - The Office Bar & Grill from Carlyle, SK (Executive Chef Jon Sison, Chef Bert Cera & Chef Paolo Sison) - Bacon Cotton Candy Lollipop. “We are grateful for those that worked together to make a successful Bacon Festival 2019,” comments Judy Larson, one of the organizers of the Festival, and adds “We were very pleased with the day.”

Measles Case in Saskatchewan The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) has confirmed a case of measles in Yorkton, Saskatchewan in a returning traveler who had recently flown into the Regina airport on June 9, 2019 after overseas travel. As a result, the SHA is issuing an exposure alert for individuals who travelled on specific flights, and through specific airports, as follows: FLIGHT INFORMATION: June 9, 2019: Air China Limited flight CA 0948 departing from Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) at 02:50 and arriving at Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) at 11:25. The passenger with measles was at PEK prior to boarding the next flight. June 9, 2019: Air China Limited flight CA 0991 departing from Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) at 15:25 and arriving Vancouver International Airport (YVR) at 10:50. June 9, 2019: Persons in Vancouver airport terminal “Main Terminal� at approximately 10:50 with
the path of travel through Canada Customs and Immigration area shortly thereafter. June 9, 2019: Air Canada flight AC 8572 departing from Vancouver International Airport (YVR) at 14:00 and arriving at Regina International Airport (YQR) at 17:00. June 9, 2019: Persons at Regina airport arrivals and baggage area between 17:00 and 20:00 hours. HOSPITAL EXPOSURE: June 9, 2019: Between the hours of 17:00 hours – 03:40 hours June 10, 2019 - Yorkton Regional Health Centre. If you have been on any of these flights or in the airport or in the Yorkton Regional Health Centre during the times above, and are pregnant, immunosuppressed or under the age of one, you may qualify for preventative treatment. Measles is a highly infectious disease transmitted by airborne spread. Passengers, crew, travelers and area residents who may have come into contact with measles as above, and are unsure
of their immunization against measles, are asked to contact their local Public Health Office. While it is expected that the majority of travelers will be immune to measles, some individuals may be susceptible, including infants less than one year old, immunosuppressed people, or people who have never been immunized against measles. Individuals most at risk from measles are those who are completely unvaccinated against the disease, including babies under one year of age. Individuals born after 1970 should have received two doses of a measles vaccine (often given as combined measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, or MMR) to be protected. Those who were born prior to 1970 are likely to be immune due to prior measles infection. Infected individuals are likely to develop symptoms within 7 to 21 days of being exposed. Symptoms of measles include the following: Fever Cough Runny nose

Stolen Trailer The Estevan RCMP have received a report of a stolen trailer in the RM of Browning approx. 20 kms east of Lampman, SK. The trailer is described as a blue 2012 homebuilt trailer with SK. Licence Plate: 395IKW. The trailer is described as a trailer specially built to carry roles/spools of cable.

ers to allow the free ow of goods between provinces for the beneďŹ t of industry and consumers,â€? Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “This change will mean Saskatchewan residents can bring beverage alcohol home with them from another province or territory in Canada for their own personal use without restrictions.â€? Most Canadian provinces and territories have limits on the volume of alcohol residents can bring home with them
from another province or territory. With this change Saskatchewan joins Alberta, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia as provinces with no limits on the volume of alcohol that can be brought into the province for personal use. The changes only apply to interprovincial importation limits. No changes have been made regarding the alcohol duty free allowance when Canadians bring back alcohol from another country. The federal government establishes those limits.

Editorial PAUSE FOR REFLECTION
How can I keep from dancing by Ken Rolheiser www.kenrolheiser.com
In my last column I asked you to think of the many ways the Lord dances with us. Anya’s song “How Can I Keep From Singing” sent the dance metaphor re-echoing in my heart: “My life goes on in endless song… I hear its music ringing It sounds an echo in my soul How can I keep from singing? A song in the heart sets the spirit dancing! . Sunrise, sunset! Sunrise, sunset! Fiddler on the Roof tells us our years pass swiftly, but our hearts can be light. “Happy on the mountain are the feet of the one who brings good news” Isaiah 52:7. Remember the feelings of exaltation after a great Sunday service, and how you wished you could share that feeling with all the world, especially with those you love? That is dancing with the Lord. In Nigeria and other African cultures the faithful literally dance and sing in joyful worship. That is often after walking many miles to church. That is dancing with the Lord. I remember my daughter’s wedding and the moment her father-in-law finally got to speak after all the other
addresses and formalities. He sent a loud “Awwwhhh!” through the microphone. And everyone felt his joy and pride, and our hearts were dancing. I thought of times in the life of Jesus when he was dancing. When he walked on the Sea of Galilee, shortly after his miracle of feeding 5,000 with a few loaves and fishes, Jesus invited Peter to dance with him on the water, metaphorically. Then there was the transfiguration! The joy of the moment was so great Peter asked if they could construct three tents, one for Jesus, one for Moses and one for Elijah. The Father was leading that dance. “This is my son, the beloved. Listen to him.” (Mark 9:1-8) Then we have our favorite heroes like the Olympian Eric Liddell who said, “I believe God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast! And when I run I feel his pleasure.” Now that is dancing with God – using our talents for the good of all. Not that we have to succeed in winning earth’s medals. Liddell said, “In the dust of defeat as well as the laurels of victory there is a glory to be found if one has done his best.” And he said further, “It has been a wonderful experience to compete in the Olympic Games and to bring home a gold medal. But since I have been a young lad, I have had my eyes on a different prize… this race ends when God gives

June 21 is the Longest Day of Play, so get outside and enjoy the day! Lace up your shoes and stretch your legs on our Walking Trail, splash about at the Kipling & District Swimming Pool, play a round of disc golf on our Disc Golf Course or a game of tennis or pickleball at the Tennis Courts in Bell Park, kick around a soccer ball or toss around a football at Kipling School’s athletic field, or simply play on the playground equipment in Bell Park.

out the medals.” There is a wonderful new version of “Footprints”, the story of the traveler of life who looks back and sees two sets of prints where Jesus walked with him during his life. At some points there is only one set of prints and the traveler thought Jesus had abandoned him. “No,” Jesus says. “that’s where I carried you.” At the end of your life, in this new version, occasionally the footprints zigzag all over the place. There are stops, starts, and gashes in the sand. A veritable mess of prints. You are amazed and shocked. The Lord explains, “You didn’t know? It was then that we danced!”
Disconnect between youth and farming By Calvin Daniels cdaniels@sasktel.net
It might not be new in terms of a challenge facing agriculture, but it is one that certainly needs to keep bubbling on the front burner in terms of a response. What I am referring to is the growing disconnect between our youth and the reality of farming. It was not surprising, but still somewhat sad to hear that at a farm information event for students held at a Norquayarea farm, there were students not familiar with farming in large part because they have had no exposure to the sector. Norquay and area are about as rural as it gets on the Canadian Prairies. It would be expected that most people living in such as area would naturally be connected to the farm, but that is an assumption which is simply not valid anymore. It is quite reasonable to work in a community such as Norquay, Kamsack, or Canora, being a nurse, a teacher, a mechanic and have no direct tie to an area farm. If the adults in a family do not have farm ties, something that takes them to an active farm at least for periodic visits, then the children of those people will have no in-person exposure to agriculture either. We who have a greater connection to the farm sector, having grown up on a farm, or having careers which tie us to the sector often wonder how there can be the distrust of farming that we sometimes see from the broader public. Yet, if we step back just a bit if one is not immersed in a particular business it is hard to understand what actually goes on. I look under the hood of my car and at best I have a rudimentary knowledge of a gasoline engine. But when it comes to the detailed workings of a modern engine, with all its computer controls and gizmos, I am frankly lost. I would note I know little if anything about modern mining or the forestry sector either. That said how potash is mined does not impact my thinking in the same way I think about how the food on my table comes to be there. People should care about their food. It’s important in fact, that they do. But, they can only make informed decisions, can only formulate informed opinion, with good information. Good information is often best obtained by first-hand information gathering. For food, that means knowing what happens on the farm, and why it happens. From that foundation good decisions can begin to formulate. So it is imperative producers are diligent in providing access to good information, even in small town Canada, so residents better understand the farm sector.

Introducing Bucklebot! Animatronic personality is SGI’s new ambassador of seatbelt safety SGI is excited to introduce Bucklebot, the newest addition to the SGI Safety Squad! Standing just under a metre tall, Bucklebot is a remote-controlled robot that will teach seatbelt safety to
children (and parents). “Bucklebot is a fun, interactive way to deliver a very important message: buckle up every time you’re in a vehicle, because it could save your life,” said Penny McCune, Chief Operating
Officer of the Auto Fund. “Police issue hundreds of seatbelt tickets every month, which tells us that, for many people, the message just isn’t clicking. Establishing good habits early with children will help ensure
they last a lifetime, and keep them safe.” With the help of a nearby human “assistant” on a wireless headset, Bucklebot can talk to kids directly, answering their questions about seatbelt use and anything else traffic safety-related. While most people do buckle up, there are still too many who don’t. During 2018’s Traffic Safety Spotlights, police reported more than 4,700 offences
for failing to wear a seatbelt or not using the appropriate booster seat or car seat for kids. On average, improper or non-seatbelt use is a factor in a total of 19 deaths and 158 injuries per year in Saskatchewan. Wearing a seatbelt can reduce your chances of being seriously hurt or killed in a collision by as much as 50 per cent. To help spread that message, Bucklebot
will be travelling around Saskatchewan, appearing at safety days, car seat clinics, schools and community events. If you’d like to request Bucklebot at your event, contact SGI’s Traffic Safety Community Outreach department by visiting www. sgi.sk.ca/safetysquad. You can find video footage of Bucklebot in action at www.youtube.com/SGIcommunications.

Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Church planned their cemetery service for June 16, but due to the weather the service was held in the church. Then they went to the cemetery for the blessing of the graves followed by a delicious dinner at the church basement. Kathy Bank, Glenavon; Greg and Randene Bank of White City and Michele and Claude Jalbert and family of Prince Albert attended the First Communion and Confirmation Mass for grandson/nephew Rylan Bank, son of Tim and Kathrene Bank of Hudson Bay this past weekend. Congratulations to Kathy Bank’s grandson Brendon Bank of Hudson Bay who placed 3rd in the 3000m run at the Provincial High School meet in Moose Jaw last weekend. He received the Bronze Medal and a Banner to be placed in the school gym in Hudson Bay.

In Motion bucket list helps beat summer boredom Saskatchewan in motion’s popular Summer Bucket List is out just in time to help families beat summer boredom. «Parents have to work harder to keep kids moving as organized activities start to wind down,» says Marnie Sinclair, Manager of Saskatchewan in motion. «Our Summer Bucket List provides a boost with tips, ideas and inspiration to keep kids in motion all summer long.» Kids need to move 60 to 90 minutes a day, but less than 15% of Saskatchewan kids meet that national guideline. The bucket list focuses on outdoor play something we›re seeing less and less thanks to safety concerns, busy lives and the lure of screen time. «We hope the Summer Bucket List gives parents ideas for balancing screen time with outdoor fun and adventure,» says Sinclair. «Once you get them out and
moving, everyone has fun.» In the Summer Bucket List parents can find instructions for games like Hula Hoop Croquet, learn to take parenting cues from hummingbirds, plan a neighbourhood summer day camp and more. The guide also includes ideas for: * playing neighbourhood games * planning an active staycation * keeping active with rainy day ideas * combining art and activity Parents can visit Saskatchewaninmotion.ca to flip through a digital copy of the in motion Summer Bucket List and download a template to complete their own family bucket list. Sinclair recommends getting the kids involved in the planning. «We hope families will sit down together, pull some ideas from the guide and

APAS calls on government to respond to drought Outlines actions needed to address situation The Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan has proposed several steps that need to be taken to help the province’s producers cope with current drought conditions. “APAS is calling on both levels of government to initiate a droughtrelated AgriRecovery assessment. For many producers, 2019 is our third straight year of below average moisture,” said APAS president Todd Lewis. “We can’t just keep hoping for

rain. It is time to act.” APAS has asked government to assist with water supplies and water quality management, designate the entire province as eligible for the Federal Livestock Tax Deferral program, and create a provincial Drought Committee of government and industry representatives to monitor drought conditions and oversee assistance measures. APAS would also like Saskatch-
ewan Crop Insurance to consider a new program that will encourage the conversion of drought-damaged cereal crops into livestock feed such as green feed, silage or grazing. “Producers across the province are under considerable stress,” Lewis added. “The government may not be able to make it rain, but there are concrete actions that can be taken to alleviate some of the burden producers are dealing with.”

Kipling hosts SARM’s June Division 1 Meeting By: Darcie Khounnoraj darcone979@gmail.com
The Kipling community hosted the recent SARM 2019 June Division 1 Meeting at the Kipling Community Centre on Wednesday, June 12 th to highlight and deliver information on various issues and concerns in the rural municipalities. Guest speakers, SARM (Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities) representatives and attendees began filling the tables in the community centre to take part in the morning event around 9 AM. Bill Huber (SARM Division Director), Ray Orb (SARM President) and Jay Meyer (SARM Executive Director) spent fifteen minutes with opening remarks and an introductory to the morning schedule of speakers, topics and eventual question and answer during the SARM Bear-Pit Session. Special guest speaker Todd MacKay (Prairie Director, Canadian Taxpayers Federation) spoke to the attendees about the current hot-topic, carbon tax. “What we were really doing here today is just letting folks know at RM’s,
‘what are carbon taxes going to mean for them’. It’s going to be a hit on their budget, it’s going to cost them thousands of dollars and that’s a big deal. You know, you can’t grade the (dirt) roads with a Prius, you’ve got to run some diesel through your graders and you got to keep the RM shops warm in the winter - there’s going to be costs and increased costs proposed.” “When we look at it, our view is that carbon tax isn’t going to help the environment, it’s basically going to cost folks a lot of money especially out here in rural Saskatchewan. We’re out here talking about it, just making sure that while we’re paying for it, everyone understands how much it’s going to cost them so they can budget accordingly,” MacKay added: “Also just to remind people that politicians work for us not the other way around. If they are going in the wrong direction, we need to get them turned around.” Guest speaker Bryan Oborne (Manager Southeast Regional Services, Water Security Agency) spoke to the attendees about the concerns of drainage on farmland, wa-
ter availability, flooding, drought and the future of water in the province. Grain Transportation was another topic that the community wanted highlighted at the Divisional meeting. Guest speakers Mike Reich (Account Manager, Sales – Grain, CP Rail) and Jared Farmer (Managing Director, Sales – Grain, CP Rail) discussed current issues in grain production and transportation within the province. With the rise of crimes in the rural communities, officers C/Supt Alfredo Bangloy (OIC Criminial Operations, RCMP), Supt. Kevin Kunetzki (South District Officer, RCMP) and Brad Lanthier (RCMP) spoke to the attending crowd. “(SARM) provides us with the opportunity to speak about what’s happening in the area in terms of crime but also what we’re doing about it and how engaged we are from the agency perspective.” Supt. Kunetzki spoke about innovation technology (LoRaWAN Network) and the importance of the Saskatchewan Crime Watch Advisory Network. The Roundtable Discus-
sion section of the SARM meeting had involved individuals speaking as groups before the SARM Bear-Pit Session began with the public attendees. Special guest speakers from SARM, Ray Orb (President), Carmen Sterling (Vice-President), Bill Huber (Director) and Jay Meyer held conference for the community representatives, allowing the concerns, responses and solutions to be heard and discussed for the collection of rural municipalities. “I think this was a great meeting, we had a great morning. We had a fairly good representation here from the RM’s in the area, understanding that we had a nice day and the farmers need to be out in their fi elds looking after their crops,” Ray Orb declared. “We had a good roundtable discussion with the four different groups here. The participation was phenomenal - this was a good chance to have one on one conversations. Our members really like this, they get to pick the topics, so they know ahead of time and are prepared ahead of time for some of the questions and the issues that are relevant to the area.”

June is Lipedema Awareness Month By Mary Moffat Carlyle Observer
When Connie Young’s mother and aunt went to a Cardiologist appointment in Mesa Arizona in 2015, he made an offhand comment about something genetic going on with their legs. After hearing about the doctor’s comment, Connie began searching the internet using the key words ‘big legs, genetic’ and found answers to something that had weighed heavily on her for many years – both physically and mentally. Finally, there was a glimmer of enlightenment regarding her own health issues. Young had been to the doctor many times throughout her life and many of them believed that she was unable to lose the
weight on her legs because she wasn’t trying hard enough. One went so far as to recommend bariatric surgery. It was very freeing to finally have a diagnosis of lipedema, a chronic medical condition that affects approximately 11% of women. It is characterized by a symmetric buildup of adipose tissue (fat) in the legs and arms. A common but under recognized disorder, lipedema may cause pain, swelling and easy bruising. It may be accompanied by an unusual texture within the fat that can feel like rice, peas or walnuts beneath the surface of the skin. Lipedema is not rare, but a proper diagnosis is rarely made. Few physicians are comfortable diagnosing and treating lipedema because of the lack of diagnostic
tests and research-backed treatments. Alongside the physical pain symptoms, it can impact mental health and quality of life, leading to lack of energy, low self-esteem, feelings of hopelessness or even eating disorders. Lipedema was first reported in literature at the Mayo Clinic in 1940, and knowledge in the area of lipedema spread across Europe, especially in Germany and Austria, and is slowly advancing in the US and Canada. Lipedema fat does not reduce through either diet or exercise but can managed once a person knows what it is. Lipedema is often confused with Lymphedema, which results from a failure to pump lymph fluid out of the limb or damaged lymphatic vessels that leak

an abundance of lymph fluid resulting in pooling in the hand or foot, eventually spreading up the arm or leg. Advanced stages of Lipedema can, however, cause lymphedema as well. This is known as Lipolymphedema. Young’s investigation led her to Dr. David Amron, in California, where she had Lymph sparing surgery, the removal of the abnormal fat cells between the skin & muscle. She had 2 separate surgeries, which are not covered by Canadian healthcare benefits. After the surgery, Young had manual lymph drainage therapy with a specialized therapist daily and once back in Canada drove to Weyburn a couple times a week for a few months for the therapy. She also had her legs wrapped with foam and bandages for three months and then compression daily for a few months. She now manages the inflammation by following a ketogenic way of eating and does not have to wear compression all the time.
Dianne Wilson was diagnosed with Lipedema 35 years ago by a South African doctor who recognized the disorder but didn’t know where to send her for treatment. She would go to her doctor and tell him all of her pain and symptoms but until she saw Connie’s story, she didn’t know treatment was available. Last October Dianne had Lymphoscintigraphy – a
nuclear test that shows how much lymphedema the patient has. Since there is so little information available, Young and Wilson are excited to be a part of the new Saskatchewan Lipedema Association, formed in April of this year. They are also wanting to start a support group in this area so that people have someone to share their experiences and feelings with.

The combination of flea beetle feeding and dry conditions were fatal for these canola seedlings.
with
Flea Beetles: Why do they seem worse? Calls to our agronomists, insecticide sales at retailers and Twitter comments all point to a worse-than-usual flea beetle situation this year. The simplest reason seems the most logical: Warm and dry weather favours flea beetle emergence and activity. Warm temperatures increase flea beetle metabolism, which likely means more feeding per beetle. The same dry weather slows crop growth, leaving plants at a vulnerable small size for longer. Seedling feeding points also desiccate rapidly with warm and dry. Very active flea beetles + slow-growing crop = lots of crops under heavier-than-usual flea beetle pressure. This does not mean ‘spray sooner ’ but pay close attention to the 25% defoliation action threshold. Damage can advance very quickly with dry and
warm growing conditions AND with a large number of beetles active in the fields. So be prepared for ‘action’. To dig deeper, we asked entomologists across the Prairies to help us answer a few questions: Are there more flea beetles this year? They can’t say for sure. They may have some idea once sticky trap results from research studies are evaluated. What risk factors can make flea beetles worse in a particular field? While canola seeded in canola stubble may be worse in some observations this year, Manitoba Agriculture entomologist John Gavloski is not aware of any research showing that rotation increases or decreases flea beetle risk. he says research has demonstrated lower flea beetle damage in canola in no-till fields compared to con-
ventionally-tilled fields (Dosdall et al. 1999. Crop Protection 18: 217-224; Milbrath et al. 1995. The Canadian Entomologist 127: 289-293). Is headland spraying a practical option? Headland spraying can be a practical option, providing there is a clear edge effect with the flea beetles in the field. What insecticides are registered for foliar application for flea beetles? Foliar insecticides registered for flea beetles in canola are list on page 607 of the Manitoba and Saskatchewan Guides to Crop Protection. Note that Lorsban is not registered for flea beetles in canola. To Keep It Clean for export, it is important to always follow the instructions on product labels. Further considerations: Avoid going with the flow. Even if it seems everyone is spraying, it

may not be the right decision for all fields. In areas where lots of spraying seems to be happening, two of our Saskatchewan agronomists checked their own canola fields and found minimal feeding. They’re not spraying. Check all fields. Know the thresholds. The ‘better safe than sorry’ approach may be a waste of time and
money and unnecessarily threatens all the beneficial insects in a field. In some cases, you may also find that a headlands spray is enough. Flea beetles tend to be patchy and often worse at field edges. If you plan to reseed, DON’T spray insecticide for flea beetles. By the time the next crop emerges, the flea beetles
may have moved on to other more established crops nearby, and the reseeded crop will have some protection from its seed treatment. You may however want to spray herbicide to take out the old crop. That will allow for uptake of herbicide before the seeding step covers the small seedlings with a layer of dust.

Lakes projected to reach normal summer operating levels Despite below normal snowmelt runoff into the Quâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Appelle River and persistent drier than normal conditions across most of Southern Saskatchewan, most lakes on the Quâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Appelle River System are within their desirable summer operating ranges, due to additional spring management by Water Security Agency (WSA). The lakes actively monitored by WSA on this system include BuďŹ&#x20AC;alo Pound, Last Mountain, Pasqua, Echo, Mission, Katepwa, Crooked and Round. Recreational users and local residents are advised that while visually, some of these lakes may appear at reduced levels compared to previous high ďŹ&#x201A;ow years, most are within their desirable summer op-
erating ranges. The exception of Round Lake which is projected to be about 85 centimetres (33.5 inches) below that mark. WSA will not be operating the control structure at Round Lake until the federal government obtains the appropriate land control. WSA is still working on bringing Crooked Lake up to near the top of its desirable operating level by mid-June. Lake levels similar to the summer of 2018 are expected throughout the Quâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Appelle River System, if conditions remain dry. Dry conditions over southern Alberta are resulting in low runoff within the headwaters of the South Saskatchewan River and high water use within irri-
gation districts in Southern Alberta. This is translating into below normal inďŹ&#x201A;ows to Lake Diefenbaker. Additional water was retained in Lake Diefenbaker in April due to a below normal snowpack developing in the alpine headwaters. While Lake Diefenbaker is currently at a near normal elevation for this time of year, outďŹ&#x201A;ows are being reduced to safeguard the water supply and reduce the risk of summer water levels that are lower than desirable. OutďŹ&#x201A;ows at Gardiner will be maintained near 70 m3/s through the summer unless conditions in the headwater areas improve or deteriorate further. These ďŹ&#x201A;ows below Gardiner Dam would be similar to outflows main-
Pelicans on Lake Diefenbaker. tained through the past three summers. While these flows will offer challenges to downstream irrigators, ferries,

Not all bugs need drugs!: Using antibiotics responsibly Did you know that unnecessary use of antibiotics can make these drugs less effective? This means that the medications we rely upon to feel better might not work as well (or at all) the next time you or your loved ones get sick with a bacterial infection. The Chief Public Health OďŹ&#x192;cer of Canada, Dr. Theresa Tam, has released her second spotlight report, Handle with Care: Preserving Antibiotics Now and Into the Future, to shine a light on the importance of using antibiotics responsibly. When antibiotics are used unnecessarily or overused, bacteria that cause illness can become resistant to the antibiotic drugs used to
treat them. This is called antibiotic resistance. The threat of antibiotic resistance is that infections such as gonorrhoea, skin infections, and C-diďŹ&#x192;cile could become untreatable. There are many reasons why we rely so much on antibiotics. Since their invention just after the First World War, antibiotics have transformed medicine and saved millions of lives. Most of us have always lived in a world with antibiotics. When we get sick, we expect that an antibiotic prescription will get us back on our feet quickly, maybe even without missing work or any other important commitments in our busy lives. Antibiotics are convenient
and they give us peace of mind. But they are not always necessary. Many common infections are caused by viruses. Antibiotics are made to ďŹ ght bacteria. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work against viruses. Taking an antibiotic for a viral infection wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make you feel better any faster. All it will do is contribute to the problem of antibiotic resistance and it may do more harm than good, such as wiping out the good bacteria that are an essential part of your healthy microbiome. The stakes are high. If we do not act now to reduce the unnecessary use of antibiotics, by 2050 antibiotic-resistant infections could cause as
many as 10 million deaths globally per year. That is more than the number of cancer related deaths we see today worldwide. We risk facing a future where treatable bacterial infections could once again become serious threats to human health. Essential medical procedures, such as chemotherapy and common surgical procedures like caesarean sections and hip replacements could become much riskier to perform safely because of the possibility of contracting a dangerous resistant infection. In 2017 alone, Canadians ďŹ lled over 24 million antibiotic prescriptions; many for conditions which we due to viral infection and
therefore antibiotic use is inappropriate. Most antibiotics are dispensed at local pharmacies in communities across Canada, and prescribed by our family physicians, dentists or medical specialists. We need to involve all prescribers and patients the preserving the effectiveness of our antibiotics. Even though antibiotic resistance is a complex issue, there are some simple things we can all do: Have a conversation with your health care provider about the best treatment options for your illness and learn why antibiotics are not always the best option for your health. Prevent the spread of illness by keeping your vac-
cinations up to date, washing your hands regularly, staying home when you are sick, and coughing and sneezing into your arm. Always take antibiotics as prescribed. Never share antibiotics or take someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prescription. Leaders in Canada and around the world are actively joining forces to tackle antibiotic resistance, and they need your help. Visit Canada. ca to read Dr. Tamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full report, where you can find out more about antibiotic resistance in Canada and what you can do to help preserve the eďŹ&#x20AC;ectiveness of these vital, life-saving drugs now and into the future.
Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let fusarium upset your season Cereals Canada is encouraging growers to take a proactive approach to managing fusarium head blight (FHB) in their wheat, barley and oat crops. By taking steps to manage the disease throughout the growing season, producers can limit the presence of the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in their harvested grain and protect its marketability. Commonly known as vomitoxin, DON can be produced when the fungal disease FHB infects cereal crops. Its presence can limit grainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end uses and marketing potential, as
most importing countries have strict limits on DON levels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Domestic processors and export customers are increasingly testing shipments for mycotoxins,â&#x20AC;? says Brenna Mahoney, director of communications and stakeholder relations with Cereals Canada. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shipments that exceed acceptable levels of DON could be rejected, which is a tremendous cost to the industry and may impact Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reputation as a producer of high-quality cereal grains.â&#x20AC;? To preserve crop marketing opportunities and keep Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s markets
open for all, Cereals Canada recommends growers take the following steps in FHB management: When choosing seed, select the variety with the highest FHB resistance. Apply a fungicide when there is an elevated risk of FHB. Plan crop rotations to allow ample time for crop residue to decompose. Plant clean seed and consider a seed treatment in high-risk areas to improve the crop stand. Use a combination of disease management best practices to control fusarium. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is important to put
together a plan to manage the disease and remain vigilant; employing as many FHB management best practices as possible,â&#x20AC;? says Mahoney. When disease infection is severe, FHB can be identiďŹ ed by premature bleaching and salmoncoloured fungal growth on the heads of crops it has infected. In addition to knowing what to look for and actively scouting for the disease, producers are encouraged to make use of the materials available through their provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agricultural departments, including risk maps.
Saskatchewan to fully cover Mifegymiso Saskatchewan will provide 100 per cent coverage of Mifegymiso for residents eligible under the Saskatchewan Drug Plan, eďŹ&#x20AC;ective immediately. Mifegymiso is the ďŹ rst oral product approved by Health Canada for medical termination of an early pregnancy. Mifegymiso has been on the Saskatchewan Formulary and available by prescription since 2017,
following a recommendation by Health Canada. The cost of Mifegymiso to individual patients varied depending on their drug coverage and eligibility through beneďŹ t programs. Now, full coverage brings Saskatchewan into line with other provinces and territories. For more information, call the Drug Plan at 1-800667-7581 toll-free or 306787-3317 in Regina.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;By keeping fusarium damaged grain and mycotoxins to a minimum, growers are protecting their investment and protecting market access for all,â&#x20AC;? says Mahoney. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we all work to-
gether to protect Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reputation as a trusted supplier, it helps our entire industry thrive.â&#x20AC;? For more information on fusarium management, visit https://keepingitclean.ca/cereals/fusarium.

Concussion symptoms reversed by magnetic therapy SASKATOON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Concussion symptomsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;such as loss of balance, hazy comprehension, sleep disturbance and ability to walk straightâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;can be reversed by a new type of magnetic stimulation, research at the University of Saskatchewan (USask) shows. Magnetic stimulation using a laptop-style device for 20 minutes per day improved the ability of rodents with a concussion to walk in a straight line, navigate a maze, run on a wheel, and perform cognitive tests, according to research published in the Journal of Neurotrauma. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Concussion is a major health concern affecting all sections of society from children whose brain is still developing to older people suďŹ&#x20AC;ering falls,â&#x20AC;? said Professor Changiz Taghibiglou,
who led the research. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The beauty of this therapy is not only that it is eďŹ&#x20AC;ective, but that it is non-invasive, easy to use and cost-eďŹ&#x20AC;ective.â&#x20AC;? The USask team also found evidence that Low Frequency Magnetic Simulation could potentially protect the brain from future degeneration, a risk following serious concussions. Concussion or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a major public health concern and can be caused by sports injuries, motorvehicle accidents, falls and other head trauma. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that more than 10 million people per year are aďŹ&#x20AC;ected by a traumatic brain injury (TBI). In Canada, 160,000 people suďŹ&#x20AC;er from brain injuries annually, with over 1.5
million Canadians living with the consequences. Income lost from disabilities related to brain injuries in Canada is predicted to rise from $7.3billion to $8.2 billion between 2011 and 2031. Concussion can also cause severe headaches and hamper a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to think straight and perform day-to-day tasks. Within four days of treatment, rodents with repeated concussion had their ability to perform a variety of cognition and motor tests restored to almost normal levels. Their bodyclocks, governing sleep patterns, which can be thrown out of sync by concussion, were also restored to their normal function. The mice were exposed to low levels of magnetic stimulation, which mimic

the way brain waves oscillate. Mice with concussion that had not been treated were unable to perform the behavioral and neurological tasks, which included running on a wheel without falling oďŹ&#x20AC;. Taghibiglou also found that certain proteins, which are important to protect the brain from various neurological conditions, were restored to their normal level by the low-frequency magnetic stimulation. The proteins protect neurons and halt the progression of post-concussion inďŹ&#x201A;ammation and neurodegeneration. Children and adolescents are particularly vulnerable to adverse eďŹ&#x20AC;ects of brain injuries as their brains are still developing into their early 20s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Traumatic brain injury is a clinical condition that poses signiďŹ cant challenges to patients, families and health professionals,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. Yanbo Zhang (M.D), professor of psychiatry in USaskâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College of Medi-

Currently, we do not have eďŹ&#x20AC;ective treatment to improve the cognitive impairment. Low frequency magnetic stimulation provides a
novel option for concussion treatment. It is portable, non-invasive and affordable.â&#x20AC;? The brain injury research was funded by Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department of National Defence, the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation, and the College of Medicine ComRAD fund.

SHA Board approves 2019-20 operating budget The Saskatchewan Health Authorityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (SHA) Board approved the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operating budget and capital expenditure plan budget for the 2019-20 ďŹ scal year, including a $3.97 billion operating budget comprising record targeted investments in mental health and addiction services and $188.9 million for capital expenditures. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This budget will result in better health care for Sas-
katchewan residents, particularly as a result of key investments from the federal and provincial governments for the SHA to create additional mental health and addictions programming,â&#x20AC;? said R.

Avoid wildlife carnage on the highway Due to the unusually easy winters of late, the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation (SWF) is expecting an increase in wild deer populations, which means a greater risk for vehicular collisions with wildlife. There were more than 14,000 wildlife collision claims reported to SGI in 2018. Of those, 525 were with moose and 12,401 were with deer. Those collisions resulted in an estimated $83 million in insurance claims to SGI. More seriously, wildlife collisions can injure and kill people. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something motorists are being asked to keep in mind as the SWF launches the 23rd annual edition of its â&#x20AC;&#x153;Give Wildlife a Brakeâ&#x20AC;? public safety campaign. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Give Wildlife a Brakeâ&#x20AC;? campaign alerts motorists to the dangers of wild animals crossing the roads in front of them, via highway billboard messages, social media alerts and radio. The Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation, with support from SGI, will launch the campaign in mid June to run into July, and again in early October to run into late November when the risk of wildlife collisions is highest.
timely health care, regardless of where you live in Saskatchewan.â&#x20AC;? During the 2019-20 ďŹ scal year, the SHA will focus on: Improving team-based care in communities and in hospitals and improved access to mental health and addictions services; Creating a health system culture that promotes patient and staďŹ&#x20AC; safety; Enhancing the role of
physicians as leaders in the health system; and, Improving system-wide coordination and alignment of services with a view to increasing efficiencies and streamlining operations. The SHAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2019-20 plan for capital expenditures targets infrastructure, equipment and information technology investments, including allocations to initiate the construction process for the
new Meadow Lake longterm care facility, support for the pre-construction phase for new hospitals in Prince Albert and Weyburn, and IT at the new Jim Pattison Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the next year, we are focused on creating a stronger, more integrated province-wide health system for the patients and families we serve,â&#x20AC;? Saskatchewan Health Authority CEO Scott
Livingstone said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are focusing our actions on codesigning a provincial health system that strengthens care in communities, achieves better health outcomes and continues to work on sustainability. By putting our strategic priorities into action, we are better positioned to meet the health needs of the people of Saskatchewan, today and in the future.â&#x20AC;?
Controlling lawn and garden pests safely After a long winter, many Canadians are eager to start gardening and to maintain their lawns. Spring is also the time of year to start thinking about how to manage weeds and pests throughout the growing season. A healthy lawn or garden is more resistant to pest problems, and can be achieved without using any pesticides at all. Occasional weeding prevents weeds and allows for the discovery of other pests. By managing pest problems when they are small, you can often avoid the need for pesticides at all. If you choose to use a pesticide, it is important to use only a product authorized by Health Canada. You can search Health Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pesticide label database online or from the mobile app to ďŹ nd the right product. It is also important to always follow the label directions and abide by any local restrictionsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;provincial, territorial or municipalâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that may
apply to speciďŹ c products. What you should do If preventive measures are not enough, and you decide to use a pest control product, you are responsible for using pesticides safely. Health Canada oďŹ&#x20AC;ers this advice to help you protect the health and safety of those around you, and the environment, when using outdoor pesticides: Always follow all label directions, which may include: wearing protective clothing or other equipment speciďŹ ed on the label; applying pesticides only at the rate stated on the label; and making sure that the pesticide label says the product is for the intended area, and lists the insect or weed you want to control. Make sure you wait the amount of time directed on the label before harvesting any garden crop treated to control
home garden pests. Never spray a pesticide outdoors if the wind speed is more than 8 kilometres per hour (5 miles per hour), if the air temperature is above 30°C (86°F), or if it is raining. Check your local weather forecast for up-to-date temperature, wind and rain information. Remember, reading and following pesticide labels is important! If you are unsure of how to best manage a particular lawn or garden pest problem, visit our website for more information, or consider hiring a licensed pest control operator. Report health and safety concerns Adverse events related to the use of a pest control product should be reported to the manufacturer, who is required by law to report it to Health Canada. You may also report an incident directly to Health Canada by completing an incident report form.

Crop report for the period June 4 to June 10, 2019 Many areas of the province that are in need of rain did not receive any this past week. However, localized rain helped to relieve dry topsoil moisture conditions in the northwest and southeast. The moisture will help with crop germination and growth, while encouraging hay land and pasture growth. Across the province, seeding operations are mostly complete, but there are a few fields being seeded for green feed and silage. Germination is patchy and crop growth is slow in some regions due to the dry conditions but the recent rain has helped where it was received. Parts of the southeastern region reported large amounts of rain this past week. The Weyburn area recorded up to 69 mm and the Broadview area 25 mm. In the northwest, areas around
Lloydminster received 40 mm. However, areas around Gravelbourg, Kyle, Leader, Bethune, Craik, Outlook and Kindersley remain very dry, having received less than 25 mm of rain since April 1. Topsoil moisture conditions improved where rain was received, but continue to deteriorate across the province due to the strong winds and lack of moisture. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 21 per cent adequate, 42 per cent short and 37 per cent very short. Topsoil moisture on hay land and pasture is rated as 17 per cent adequate, 32 per cent short and 51 per cent very short. Crop growth is delayed in much of the province, and most crops are behind their normal developmental stages for this time of year, due to lack of moisture. Thirty-seven per cent
of fall cereals are reported being in the shotblade stage and 28 per cent are heading, while 43 per cent of the spring cereals are tillering. Thirty per cent of canola is emerging and 37 per cent is in the seedling stage, along with 34 per cent of the flax. Ninety-five per cent of the pulse crops are emerging and in the vegetative growth stage. The majority of crop damage this past week was due to frost, strong winds, insects such as flea beetles, cutworms, grasshoppers, wireworms and a lack of moisture. Farmers are busy controlling pests and hauling grain. A complete, printable version of the Crop Report is available online at www.saskatchewan.ca/ crop-report.

The recent rainfall on the weekend and more rain in the forecast should help these crops of canola and flax along as well as all other seeded crops.
Hometowns call for share of cannabis excise tax Saskatchewan hometowns are calling on the provincial government to meet federal expectations and recognize the responsibilities municipalities have in cannabis legalization by sharing a portion of cannabis excise tax revenues. In the last month, nearly 50 Saskatchewan hometowns have sent a letter to Saskatchewan’s Minister of Finance recognizing that municipalities value a respectful, government-togovernment relationship
between provincial and local governments, and that sharing cannabis excise tax revenues honours that relationship and acknowledges the responsibilities hometowns have in legalization. “As the order of government closest to daily lives, local governments are on the front lines of cannabis legalization, developing and enforcing rules around cannabis production, sales, and consumption,” said Gordon Barnhart, President of the Saskatchewan Urban
Municipalities Association (SUMA). “Providing hometowns with a portion of cannabis excise tax revenues, as expected by the federal government, recognizes these responsibilities and helps cover the local costs related to legalization.” The 2018 federal budget recognized that the additional tax revenues provided to provinces and territories, who are receiving 75 per cent of cannabis excise tax revenues instead of the 50 per cent originally antici-
pated, was supposed to be transferred to municipalities and local communities. Federal Minister of Finance Bill Morneau reiterated that intention in a letter to SUMA on May 21, recognizing the federal government was willing to accept a smaller share of cannabis duty revenues to ensure that provinces
and territories would have additional funds to provide to municipalities and local communities to address cannabis related responsibilities. During the month of May, President Barnhart met with Saskatchewan Party MLAs and the Saskatchewan NDP caucus to speak about the importance of sharing can-
nabis excise tax revenues with Saskatchewan communities. SUMA’s Executive Committee also met with Minister Bernadette Jordan, the Minister of Rural Economic Development, to discuss topics important to Saskatchewan hometowns, including cannabis excise tax revenues.
