SGI faces possible strike action SGI says it has a comprehensive plan in place to ensure customer needs are met in the event of job action by the Canadian Office and Professional Employees Union. The union served SGI with 48 hours strike notice late last week.

“We are committed to the collective bargaining process and are still hopeful of reaching a resolution,” said Andrew Cartmell, President and CEO of SGI. “In the meantime, our customers remain our top priority.

At the moment it continues to be business as usual at SGI, but if the union does undertake job action, we have a plan in place to ensure customer needs continue to be met. I want to assure our customers that we’re wellprepared to handle job action if it comes to that, although I hope it does not. We’re committed to continued bargaining with COPE in hopes of reaching an agreement.”

SGI says its network of motor licence issuers and independent brokers will continue assisting customers with their licence issuing, vehicle registration and other insurance needs. Brokerages and issuer offices are not SGI offices and would remain open in the event of job action. SGI also has online services that would remain available during any job action.

Health Sciences welcomes tentative agreement “The tentative agreement reached July 8 between health care employers and the Health Sciences Negotiating Committee represents progress from the so-called ‘final offer’ that SAHO presented to the union one month ago,” Health Sciences President Cathy Dickson said.

“This tentative agreement restores the wage differential guaranteed to those who occupy senior positions. It restores long-established wage differentials for educational achievement. It provides full wage retroactivity to April 1, 2009, and it sees SAHO agreeing to drop a number of proposed contract take-aways,” Dickson said at the signing of a Memorandum

of Agreement with SAHO. “The Health Sciences Negotiating Committee will recommend the tentative agreement to our Executive Council, and the Council will then determine its recommendation with respect to the tentative agreement, which will be sent to all our members for review and their vote. We expect this process to be completed within thirty days,” Dickson explained.

“While we believe this agreement represents significant improvement from the employers’ so called ‘final offer’, we recognize that our job is far from done. Health Sciences will continue to call for an end to the chronic under-staffing of our professionals, which has cre-

ated long waiting lists for many of our services, and a dangerous lack of access to others. SAHO has refused to accept a Professional Standards clause in this contract. We will continue to call for health care employers to be made publicly accountable for their staffing decisions,” Dickson said.

The new agreement provides Rural EMS workers with the first increase in their Stand By wage rate in twelve years (from $4.12 per hour to $5.00 per hour), however the association said it is still seeking to see that wage rate increased to at least 85 per cent of the Saskatchewan Minimum Wage to keep rural emergency services from continuing to lose qualified staff.

The staff of Last Mountain Times will be on holiday from July 19 to August 1 inclusive.

Our last day open in July is the 15th.

We will be open to the public again on August 2.

As residents of the Last Mountain area, we almost feel obligated to apologize to our summer visitors and travelers concerning the disgraceful condition of the highways in the area. Although Department of Highways crews and contractors have been making an effort to smooth out the rough spots, frost boils and numerous pot holes, it seems they can’t fix them fast enough before another section of highway fails. All the water we’ve had this spring is the major cause of the problems, and a downpour in the area early last week resulted in more water flowing over Highway 15 in the Semans area (photo above). A crew spent several days last week fixing a particularly bad section of Highway 20 just south of Govan (inset picture). A local resident, Wayne Busch, did an informal survey and provided the results to Last Mountain Times: on the section of Highway 20 from Strasbourg to Duval, there are nine holes and 23 warning signs; on the section from Duval to Cymric, there are 14 holes and 21 signs; on the section from Cymric to Govan: eight holes and 27 signs; Govan to Nokomis: 37 holes and 113 signs. Totals: 68 major pot holes, and 184 warning signs, with an average of 3.7 signs per kilometer and 1.3 holes per kilometer on the 50 km section from Strasbourg to Nokomis. Don’t even ASK about Highway 15!!

monthly rents rose from $1,958 in 2010 to $2,021 this year.

CMHC’s survey revealed a wide variation in services available within senior’s facilities across the province. On-site medical services were offered in 41 per cent of all facilities surveyed across Saskatchewan.

This was higher in Regina, where 49 per cent of the facilities surveyed offer this service,

while 33 per cent of the facilities surveyed in Saskatoon provided medical services on site.

The survey covered a total of 5,260 retirement spaces, of which 3,932 units or 75 per cent were standard spaces. Together, Regina and Saskatoon account for 67 per cent of this year’s surveyed retirement spaces and 62 per cent of all standard spaces surveyed within the province.

Nokomis District Museum 2011-2012 Calendar released

212 – 2nd Ave. East, Nokomis

Open 10 am to 10 pm... 7 Days a Week!

Last Mountain Times – for all your local news

The above photo of Hendry’s Western Service Garage graces the latest edition of the Nokomis District Museum Calendar, which has just become available. The history of the garage and its operations is a bit sketchy, but the general consensus is that Roy McDougall operated a garage at this location on 2nd Avenue before Charlie Hendry bought it in about 1943. Starting about 1946 it became the local Dodge Dealership in Nokomis and area. The building in the above picture was located on the lot currently occupied by Wes Kirk’s car wash. Hendry’s Western Service Station is still in operation as a Chrysler dealership directly south of the old location, and still in the Hendry family, under the ownership of Bob and Ron Hendry, with Ron’s son Adam in the business as well. In the old days, horses were still almost as common as automobiles, and Charlie Hendry is shown above with one of Sam Stoltz Eureka Farm’s prize stud Percherons. The story goes that Sam used to lead this horse, Eureka Prince, into town behind a buggy because it was too skittish to be loaded into a wagon. This is the 32nd year for the Nokomis District Museum 'Community Spirit Calendar' which posts birthdays, anniversaries and community events. The calendar is available for purchase at the Nokomis District Museum, and money raised goes to support the museum, its events and activities.

TAX ENFORCEMENT LIST Town of Nokomis

V IEW P OI NT The property tax increase for Nokomis is shocking, no doubt about it! …nearly as shocking as it was to read that my home and yard had mysteriously moved to Third Avenue West!

The cost for pumping and removal of water in 2010 and 2011 is huge, but that cost alone does not justify this huge tax increase. (Detailed information on the water and pumping costs can be obtained from the Town Office).

I plan to attend the Town Council Meeting on Tuesday, July 19 at 7:00 p.m. and hope others will be there as well.

Have your questions ready and perhaps they will be answered to everyone’s satisfaction. Decisions are made by Council, but the votes are not necessarily unanimous.

If you plan to attend the July 19 Council Meeting, let the Administrator know ahead of time and be sure to ask for a copy of the agenda. It is your right as a taxpayer to receive one.

4 LAST MOUNTAIN TIMES

TUESDAY, JULY 19, 2011

Nokomis Show & Shine 2011 July 9 saw the 2nd Annual Show & Shine in Nokomis at the local campground with entries from Nokomis, Govan, Strasbourg and Regina. The poor condition of Highway 20 kept several potential entries from showing up, but those who did come enjoyed the show, and the Bob Holden’s barbecue.

The event was staged in part to raise money to buy a defibrillator unit for the Nokomis Recreation Centre, so organizers were very pleased with the unexpected donation of the defib unit by Jay’s Transport. As a result, the money raised will now be put toward purchasing other needed medical supplies for the Centre, including an oxygen pack, a First Responders medical kit, a burn kit, and a large first aid kit.

“We appreciate the support we have received over the past two years in making this all possible, and now giving Nokomis one of the best medically-equipped rec centres in the area,” organizers Darwin and Rose Johnson said.

“We are pleased with the support we received for the Show & Shine raffle, even though we weren’t able to contact all the local businesses.”

Report from the Legislature The constituency of Arm River-Watrous is benefiting from a recent announcement by the Government of Saskatchewan that 124 Saskatchewan non-profit and volunteer organizations will receive almost $2 million in grants to help with various community projects. The Town of Nokomis is receiving $29,103 for a Centennial Hall Revitalization project and the Town of Watrous is receiving $46,034 for an arena roof replacement project through the Community Vitality Program (CVP) funded by the Community Initiatives Fund (CIF).

Funds were also awarded to the Town of Dundurn for school improvements, Stalwart’s Community Hall Board, Govan’s Centennial committee for their Centennial Celebration and Homecoming, Imperial’s Reunion Committee for their Cenby tennial Reunion and the Wynyard Centennial Committee.

Greg Brkich, MLA This funding is good news for Arm River-Watrous and it Arm River-Watrous also demonstrates our government’s commitment to improvConstituency ing community strength and vitality, which is the key for any town or city in order for it to grow and move forward. One of the goals of the Community Vitality Program was to support small capital projects that improve the quality, accessibility and use of facilities in communities across the province – a goal which I believe has been well met by these projects.

The CVP was announced in May 2010 and supports small capital projects, community pride projects and events, youth and volunteer initiatives, cultural projects and projects in the north. The program helps build a vibrant, sustainable and stronger Saskatchewan by encouraging and helping youth, volunteers and organizations in their efforts to make a difference in their communities. This includes $1,660,951 for 94 small capital projects and $322,388 for 30 community milestones and events. This investment is in addition to the first intake in October 2010, which resulted in 115 projects worth $2.2 million for a total Community Vitality Program expenditure to date of $4.1 million.

Since the fall of 2007, the CIF has invested $26 million towards 1,812 projects and community initiatives all across Saskatchewan. The next intake for the program will be October 1, 2011. Program information and guidelines are located at the following link: http://www. cifsask.org Our government will invest an estimated $45 million to rebuild Highway 15 east of Kenaston as part of a new high clearance corridor for shippers to haul over-height loads across Saskatchewan. This is one of many initiatives we’re putting in place to simplify business for shippers and make Saskatchewan’s business climate more attractive to companies that ship their goods by truck.

This work will be done in three stages. The first stage will take place starting at the junction of Highway 11; aggregate (gravel) crushing of materials will begin in the winter of 2012 in preparation for on-road construction on this section to begin the spring/summer of 2012.

Construction will continue east toward Highway 2 over the following three construction seasons with completion of the project slated for 2015.

In addition, all utility lines that could obstruct over-height loads will be buried to allow them to be moved without the need to temporarily cut utility lines or other structures. The route runs from the Alberta border to Saskatoon on Highway 7 and from Rosetown to Melville on Highway 15 (utilizing short portions of Highways 4, 20 and 6 along the way), for a total distance of 680 km. By upgrading the highway and burying the utilities, we are literally removing a barrier to trade and industry will now be able to move such things as large machinery, oilfield equipment, ready-to-move homes or parts more efficiently.

Other improvements to Highway 15 in the 2011 construction season include repaving from the junction of Highway 45 to 15 km west, which is underway now; and repaving from 1.8 km east of the Milden Access to 200 m east of the Sovereign Access, which is expected to be underway later this summer.

We’ve heard and responded to the concerns of local residents who have been requesting a safe, smooth and reliable highway that was strong enough to meet their transportation needs and support regional economic development. I am pleased that our government has committed to this project as it will help stimulate the economy and improve the quality of life throughout the region and Saskatchewan.

As people and families across Saskatchewan travel to enjoy our beautiful Provincial Parks, it is a perfect opportunity to clear up some of the misinformation being spread by the Saskatchewan Government and General Employees’ Union (SGEU). SGEU claims your Saskatchewan Party government is privatizing parks services. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. Since 2008, the Saskatchewan Party government has spent nearly $33 million to improve provincial parks. Some of those improvements include upgraded boat launches, potable water systems, new service centres and, by the fall of 2011, more than a thousand electrified campsites. Our government has also announced consultations for the establishment of two new provincial parks: Emma/Anglin Lakes and Porcupine Hills.

Obituary

Dear Editor: My uncle, Pat Curtin, is turning 60 years old on September 6, 2011. He was born and raised in Govan, SK, and has lived most of his adult life in Medicine Hat, AB. The Cur-

Pat Farrar

Kenneth Norman (Pat) Farrar was predeceased by his two sons Bill and David, his two brothers George and Lawrence, and his sister Thelma.

Left to mourn his memory are: his daughter, Nancy Chute (Ray Leitch); daughter-in-law, Lynda Guerin (Richard); his grandchildren, Doug (Lindsay) Chute, David Chute, Mike (June) Farrar, and Kelly (Shawn) Boettger; and his six greatgrandchildren, Jillian and Samantha Chute, Chase and Parker Boettger, and Dahlia and Audrey Farrar.

Pat married Doreen Villeneau in 1947 and moved to DuBolt, Alberta, where he farmed until 1952. They had three children.

Then he moved back to Govan to take over the family farm.

In 1968, they moved to Govan, where Pat looked after the skating rink (1968–1987) as well as was the R.M. Pest Control Officer (1978–1998). He also did painting for many families in the community. Pat was also very involved with the Legion after serving in World War II. After retirement, Pat enjoyed golfing, fishing, and was always up for a game of cards. He always loved spending time with his grandchildren and was very proud of his great-grandchildren.

Pat moved to Westlock, Alberta, in 2009 to be closer to his family. Pat will be deeply missed and remembered by those who know him for the kind and loving person that he was.

tin homestead where Pat grew up is about seven miles from Govan. Uncle Pat’s mother (my grandmother) sold the farm in the late 1970s and also moved to Medicine Hat. One thing my uncle has talked about many times over the years was the disappearance of the framed wall portrait of his father. The portrait was mounted in a large oval, bubble-glassed frame and depicts my grandfather at about three to four years of age and wearing what would appear to be a ‘dress’, the way they dressed children in the early 1900s. I doubt my grandmother would have left the portrait behind at the homestead, but it has not surfaced anywhere, even after my grandmother’s death when we were going through her things.

To make a long story short, my Aunt-in-law wanted me to give this information to the Last Mountain Times to see if anyone in the Govan area may have come across the portrait at an auction, garage sale or whatever. We know it is a long-shot, but just thought we would try.

Also, as Govan is celebrating its Centennial this summer and we were wondering if this information can be passed on to that function somehow.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Bulyea News Corri Gorrill • 725-4329 The Bulyea community extends sympathy to Laine Henfrey, and the Brewster family, Darcy and Janet, with the passing of Pam. Our hearts go

out to all her relatives and to her many friends. Her memory will be cherished by all who knew her.

****PUBLIC NOTICE**** Please be advised that a two dimensional (2D) seismic exploration program is planned for the Saskatoon area (see map below).

This regional seismic program is being conducted on behalf of BHP Billiton Canada Inc.

by RPS Boyd PetroSearch in order to assess potential potash mineralization.

Cribbage tournament held for Bulyea Hall On Wednesday, April 27 a group of 28 card players gathered at the Bulyea Community Hall for a cribbage tournament to honour the memory of Charlie Keyser and Eli Kropf.

Charlie and Eli, two long time Strasbourg area residents, were avid crib players, playing many a game of cribbage at Keyser’s Sales and Service in Strasbourg.

The evening started at 7:00 p.m. with people registering at the door and entering their names for the door prizes.

Card players came from Regina, Earl Grey, Cymric, Duval, Strasbourg, Bulyea and surrounding area. It was great to see Charlie’s kids, Steve and Deleigh, in attendance and

the evening was an enjoyable time of cribbage and visiting.

Players helped themselves throughout the evening to the lunch provided. The tournament ended with the presentation of cash prizes.

Dave Chambers of Island View and Mike Nippard of Bulyea captured first place.

Second place finish went to Ken Kelln of Duval and Irvin Kelln of Cymric.

The evening came to a close with Deleigh Keyser drawing the names for the door prizes and 50/50 prize.

It was a great evening of cards with proceeds going to the Bulyea Community Hall.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again next year.

The seismic process involves sending vibrations into the earth and measuring the returning waves. The energy source is vibroseis (vibrator trucks) and the program will mainly be conducted on road allowance. We ask that you consider your safety as well as the safety of our workers. Please slow down around our worksites. If you would like more information, please contact our landowner liaison, Garry Wahl.

Crop Report THE WEEKLY

According to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Crop Report for the period ending July 11, livestock producers made good haying progress over the last week and now have 19 per cent of the hay crop cut with 14 per cent baled or put into silage. Eightythree per cent of the hay crop is rated as good to excellent in quality.

Sixty-two per cent of the fall cereals are at the normal stages of development. Fiftythree per cent of the spring cereals, 52 per cent of the oilseeds and 50 per cent of the pulse crops are behind normal in development.

Eighty-two per cent of the winter wheat and 79 per cent of the peas are in good to

excellent condition. Eighty-one per cent of the spring wheat and lentils, 80 per cent of the durum and 74 per cent of the canola is in good to fair condition. The majority of crop damage is due to disease, hail and flooding.

Across the province, topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 15 per cent surplus, 77 per cent adequate, seven per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 12 per cent surplus, 82 per cent adequate and six per cent short.

Thunderstorms in some areas resulted in large amounts of precipitation, high winds and hail.

The winning tickets for the 15th Annual Saskatchewan 4-H Lottery were drawn in Saskatoon on July 6, 2011.

The big prize, the backyard potting/gardening shed, went to a lucky ticket holder from Moose Jaw. However, Strasbourg resident (and Govan Town Administrator) Kelly Holbrook was one of three winners of $500 Peavey Mart gift certificates.

The 4-H lottery is a great fundraiser for the 4-H program in Saskatchewan, with all lottery proceeds going directly back into the club, district and provincial levels.

The fundraiser is made possible through a longstanding partnership between Saskatchewan 4-H, the fertilizer company Yara Belle Plaine Inc., and A.E. Peacock Collegiate in Moose Jaw. The grand prize garden shed itself is built from scratch each year by Moose Jaw’s very own A.E. Peacock students. The students put many hours into the planning and building the shed and have

successfully demonstrated the time tested learning process 4-H likes to call ‘learn to do by doing’.

Through this year’s lottery participating 4-H clubs earned

$18,610.00 which goes directly back into the club level. The Saskatchewan 4-H Council’s portion of $20,637.50 goes to support 4-H programs and services province-wide.

Farmer priorities sidelined by federal focus on CWB: survey Spiralling costs of farm inputs and grain transportation, and the challenges of extreme weather, are the three overwhelming problems for Prairie farmers, according to the Canadian Wheat Board’s 2011 producer survey, released last week. Farmers indicated that these problems far outweighed all other concerns, including those related to grain prices and marketing.

Allen Oberg, chair of the CWB’s farmer-controlled board of directors, said the survey suggests the federal government’s agricultural priorities are misplaced. “Farmers would be far better served if government attention and resources were squarely directed at the real issues that are hurting our profitability,” said Oberg, a farmer from Forestburg, Alberta. “Instead, we find ourselves engaged in an ideological battle over a successful marketing structure that a majority of Prairie producers support.”

The survey results also reinforce the need for a plebiscite to clarify farmers’ wishes on the future of grain marketing in Western Canada, Oberg said.

Overall support for the CWB was similar to previous surveys at 67 per cent, while farmer perceptions of the organization continue to improve. A full third of farmers saying their impression of the CWB is more favourable than two years ago, with only a tenth feeling worse – one of the largest positive gaps in the survey’s history. Moreover, the CWB was seen as making progress in areas that farmers considered their top priorities, including getting premium prices for Canadian wheat and maintaining its high-quality reputation. Despite these responses, support for singledesk marketing dropped from last spring’s survey (although still above results for 2008). When asked to choose between the CWB and the open market for wheat, 63 per cent of respondents with an opinion preferred the CWB, compared to 69 per cent in 2010.

“There is substantial evidence that farmers think the CWB is doing a good job and that perceptions are improving,” Oberg said. “That conflicts with the changes in farmer support for the single-desk approach. We don’t know if this is a sampling effect, a cyclical shift, the result of government campaigns or something more fundamental. That’s why it is so crucially important that this issue be put to a vote. It is the only fair and democratic way for farmers to make their wishes clear on the future of the CWB.” The federal government intends to introduce legislation this fall that will dismantle the CWB’s single desk by August 1, 2012 without a farmer plebiscite as the law currently requires. The CWB is holding its own plebiscite for farmers to give them an opportunity their views on the important question of grain marketing, with ballots to be mailed out next week and returned by August 24, 2011. The CWB last week announced that MNP, a chartered accounting and business advisory firm, has been contracted to administer a Prairie-wide plebiscite on the future of the organization.

Inch by inch, row by row ‘And what you sow is not the body which is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain. But God gives it a body as he has chosen...’ (I Cor. 15:37–38) When I was a kid, my mother and uncle grew a garden together each summer. They literally went crazy putting it in. Every kind of vegetable grew in their garden. My uncle tended to do his gardening naked from the waist up and we referred to him all summer long as ‘nature boy’. The adults worked hard each evening weeding and such as we kids took turns spraying each other with the hose and chasing fireflies in the dark.

When harvest time came, it was usually unbelievable – too much to store and too much to give away. Each family had several freezers full and my uncle was forever coming up with new ideas for the tomatoes – including catsup one year. ‘Nature boy’ loved even the weeds and one year experimented with Dandelion Wine. My mother took on the pickles, chow chow and her favorite – something called Harvard beets. The abundance was overwhelming – God’s bounty and all that fun too!

At 93, my uncle could hardly see, but he still put in a small garden each year – some tomatoes, corn, swiss chard, cucumbers, squash – not too much as none of it goes into the freezer anymore.

And now of course he keeps his shirt on!

It is garden time again – the beans, peas, lettuce, tomatoes, the wheat, canola, flax – whatever has sprouted. The fields are lush and beautiful – overnight the green turns into an unending sea of yellow. Soon we will be seeing carpets of blue.

Little seeds go into the ground and what do we expect to grow – big seeds? Plant pumpkin seeds and get more seeds or plant pumpkin seeds and get a pumpkin? It is a pumpkin we expect of course. Each seed contains all the knowledge it needs to grow into whatever it will be – pumpkin, wheat, daisies. It is true of human beings as well – each of us arrives on this earth with a certain potential and hopefully we grow into that potential.

Any seed (metaphorical or real) grows only with a certain amount of oversight and care as the song goes: Inch by inch, row by row Gonna make this garden grow Gonna mulch it deep and low Gonna make it fertile ground The seed needs hoeing and rain, sunshine and soil. The seed to reach its full potential needs someone to look after it – to encourage its growth. It may need fertilizer, or support or protection from the frost. Eventually the seed, if it receives the proper support, becomes what nature intended it to be.

We all nurture seeds whether they be of pants, animals, children. These are seeds we can see and measure in terms of growth. But there are other seeds we nurture along – seeds of intellect, artistic and/or physical ability, seeds of faith, hope and love. We nurture them along in ourselves and in others. We are all labourers in God’s Garden. All working for a future harvest of abundance – a life well and fully lived.

BCB

by Roland Richter

I’ve finally decided what I want to be when I grow up. I want to be an expert. I’m not talking about someone who is actually good at something and possesses a great deal of knowledge of said something.

No, I’m thinking of those anonymous people that are referred to when someone is trying to sell you something on TV, or to verify the latest finding on what’s good for you and what’s not. Kind of like when coffee and eggs used to be bad for you. As the reporter cited all the horrors that could occur if you indulged in these devilish foodstuffs, they would assure you that these were the findings of experts.

So, for awhile there, as coffee growers were no doubt getting a little ticked off and chickens everywhere were breathtak-

SUBSCRIPTION DUE ?

ing sighs of relief, people felt compelled to give up on a couple life’s little pleasure for the sake of longevity. Oddly enough, then it was decided that, by George, some java and cackleberries with your morning bran and mixed fruit fiesta might actually be good for you. Don’t know if it’s different experts saying this, or the same ones as before scratching their heads as they puzzle over why the coffee swilling, egg munching individuals were still walking around. Fairly happily too, it would seem.

Now the folks selling the latest miracle device to cure your back pain seem to have their own experts. They often use the term ‘our experts,’ which is kind of what tipped me off. Apparently they don’t trust the veracity of their claims to just any old run of the mill expert. Despite their obvious loyalty and commitment to the product, it seems that these private experts aren’t always convinced of their own claims, and cover their butts by adding a disclaimer written in extremely small print at the bottom of the screen. The one that says ‘Extraordinary results. Your results will vary.’ Not ‘may’ vary, ‘will’ vary. I guess that suggests that if this thing

doesn’t work for you, you aren’t using it properly or that you’re just hopeless. Actually I’m hoping that the experts are the people that are walking around in the background during the infomercials, studiously consulting a clipboard, as they and a colleague bend over a patient stretched out on a table who obviously hasn’t experienced the joys of a pain free back yet. After a moment, they’ll step over a slightly out of focus monitor and point to a colourful chart. Then after some smiling and nodding, they’ll both walk off screen.

See, I could do that. And with some proper monetary incentive, I’ll expertly confirm that this device is the best thing since sliced bread. With an appropriate disclaimer.

So now that coffee and eggs have been cleared of all charges, maybe I’ll embark on an in-depth study on bacon. Love bacon. I’m sure with some inventive wording and artistic phrasing, I can get bacon off the most wanted list as well. Maybe get some government funding and then publish my findings. Expert findings that is.

One such man, William Pearson, of Winnipeg, paid a visit to Last Mountain Valley in the summer of 1902. Realizing the potential of the area, he returned to Winnipeg and set about distributing information to other parts of Canada, the neighbouring United States, and

England. As a result, more and more settlers were attracted to the area, and in 1903 they became interested in that portion of the Last Mountain Valley eastward from Last Mountain Lake.

The first settlers in the area made their homes at such places as McKillop’s Landing, Arlington Beach, and Taylorboro. Early settlers had extensive plans for using the Lake as a means of transportation, for bringing supplies north, and taking grain and other goods south. Those plans faded when the CPR branch line

The first house built within five miles of Govan was completed in 1903 by Oscar Landstrom on SE32-27-22-W2.

Oscar brought his wife and children, and his father-in-law John Sundwall. When Oscar returned in the spring of

more than 51 buildings could be spotted in the area, when looking out the windows of a two-story house.

A large contingent of Norwegians were among the first settlers. Some came from the United States, and some directly from Norway. The Norwegians built the first settlers’ church about five miles northwest of the present townsite in 1906.

With the influx of settlers, there arose the need for some form of local government. A Local Improvement Council was formed in 1906, and in

1904, he brought along his wife’s brother Emil Sundwall.

Early Arlington Beach area settlers included Peter Roland, Sr., A.A. Downey, P.J.Curtin, C.J Turnbull, and L.S. Boice.

During the summer of 1904, and over the next 2 years, a flood of settlers took up all the homesteads in the Govan area. By September 1905,

Former Royal Bank

early 1907 one of the first orders of business was to lay in a supply of gopher poison. In Govan, Alf Swayze, the manager of the Silver Plate Hotel, was the unofficial overseer for several months. On Sept 9, 1909 a ratepayers’ meeting ws held and the Village of Govan was incorporated, with Donald Fraser as president.

Between 1907 and 1910, a large number and variety of businesses were established or moved to Govan: four grocery stores; three barber shops; a jeweler; an undertaker; a harness shop; a machine shop; a photographer; three livery stables; an auctioneer; three lumber yards; three grain elevators; a Chinese laundry; ten real estate and insurance agents; one hotel; a drug store; seven implement dealers; two bakeries; a music teacher; two banks; one newspaper; and two hardware stores!

By 1911 Govan had grown large enough to be granted “town” status, and it was officially designated as such.

John Gilroy was the first Mayor, and Alex Graham the first Secretary Treasurer.

Some of the local banks amalgamated in 1916 to form the Royal Bank, so one of the vacant bank buildings became Town Office, as well as the offices of the RM of Millington, and the RM of Last Mountain

Obituary Margaret Digney

Margaret Jenny Digney of Semans passed away peacefully on June 29, 2011 at Raymore Silver Heights Special Care Home with family at her side.

Marg leaves to mourn: Lynn (Lyle) Davis, Bob (Jose) Digney, Faye (Trevor) Potts and Karen Woods, and five grandchildren. She is survived by: brothers, Stan Dunville, Earle Dunville and Jake Dunville; sisters-in-law, Evelyn Webb and Eva Digney. She is predeceased by: her husband, Les; infant son, Allen; sisters, Avis, Ena, Florence, Joyce; brothers, Shirley, Art; brothers-in-law, Len Digney, Stewart Digney, Murray Robinson, Arnold Boam, Bob Norris; sisters-in-law, Nellie Dunville and Peggy Dunville.

Marg was born on April 17, 1923 to Bill and Ella Dunville on the farm south east of Raymore. She attended public school at Wallenstein and moved to Raymore to complete her Grade 12.

She enrolled in Balfour Tech Collegiate and completed a business course. She then moved to Toronto and worked as a secretary/ bookkeeper.

Marg moved back home to Raymore in 1948 to help care for her mom. Marg was an avid dancer and would attend local functions.

She told us of one time she and Shirley won a ballroom dancing contest at the Trianon Ballroom in Regina. It was at a dance in Copeland where she met Les Digney. They were married in Regina on December 2, 1949. During the next years, they were busy farming and raising Lynn, Bob, Faye and Karen. Mom and Dad were active volunteers in Semans. They belonged to various organizations such as the Legion, Legion Auxilliary, and Semans Curling Club.

Marg was a devoted wife and mother and gifted home maker.

She was known for her bread and buns. Often, we would come home to find fresh cinnamon buns. Many friends liked to come out for lunch after a function because she always served her canned chicken, fresh buns and home made pickles. Mom taught us to knit, crochet and sew. She made many of our clothes. She was our best friend.

Donations can be made in Marg’s memory to Raymore Silver Heights Special Care Home. The family sincerely thanks staff at Silver Heights for the loving and excellent care they provided Mom during her stay.

“Those we love don’t go away, They walk beside us everyday, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear.”

Dear Friends, Thank you for your prompt action on renewing my subscription. I do enjoy your paper so much! It’s just the small things, but they do make a difference – pictures with complete captions; parents names with graduates, etc.; even family names bracketed with returning visitors, etc.

My family has connections to most of your paper’s communities through shared activities and interests, whether they be sports, farming, church, health care, politics, recreation, or relatives!

Sask fine collections way up The volume of fines collected by the The Fine Collection Branch of the Ministry of Justice and Attorney General is significantly higher this year, thanks in large part to an agreement with the federal tax man.

Provincial officials say a partnership with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has proven to be extremely effective, resulting in a dramatic increase of funds collected, with the total rising from $444,700 in 2008-09 to $3.7 million in 2010-11. The provincial government’s overall collection rate for unpaid fines is now than 83 per cent.

Since the CRA Program was implemented in 2008-09, the provincial government has collected more than $4 million in fines that have been outstanding for more than five years.

Other collection methods include garnishment of wages and bank accounts, seizure of personal property and in extreme situations, a hearing to determine if the individual should be incarcerated. The provincial government receives and processes approximately 150,000 tickets annually from law enforcement agencies throughout the province.

Real estate agents allowed to incorporate The Government of Saskatchewan has passed regulations to allow real estate professionals to practice their

profession through a corporation. Real estate agents will now join other professionals, including lawyers, dentists,

20 LAST MOUNTAIN TIMES

Psychology for Living

Sometimes it is important to take a stand on something we truly believe in, and even to refuse to back down. This is particularly important when it comes to moral or ethical issues, or questions of safety. There are times, however, when we need to assess whether holding tightly to our position is in the best interests of anyone.

If we find ourselves with ongoing tension or conflict around an issue, and it interferes with balanced function-

Holding on – helping or hindering? ing in life, we may need to take a second look. If we are stuck, and have been in the same stuck place for a while, we need to first re-assess our own position.

Is holding on helping me or hindering me? If it is not helping, how can I move on?

Perhaps talking openly with our partner in ‘stuckness’ will bring a break to the stalemate.

Simply stating that life is too short for remaining in negativity, along with a statement of your positive intent may be all that is required to release the block. If it is impossible or unwise to address the issue directly with the other, your best strategy may be to simply let it go.

Sometimes clients tell me this feels like ‘giving in’ and letting the other person ‘win’. In truth, the situation is already a lose/ lose proposition, so getting free of it is in fact a ‘win’.

A good ‘reality check’ question to ask yourself is, “How important would this issue be to me if the other person suddenly passed away, or if I was diagnosed with a terminal illness?” If it would no longer matter then, it is likely not worth holding on to now. This might be a good time to run just such a reality check.

Despite the technological sophistication of our world, and our growing spiritual awareness, there’s still nothing that does more to make it a better place than having good old fashioned mending fences and building bridges.

Bulyea and Silton benefit

Silton / Sask Beach / Kannata Valley News Mae Clarke • 729-3014 to clean up, the evening was completely wrapped up by 8:00 p.m. and everyone was able to enjoy another beautiful evening in Saskatchewan.

This event pulls together many varied groups, farm, beach, town and surrounding communities and demonstrates why people from Saskatchewan are universally admired.

The community sends heartfelt sympathies to the Henfrey family of Bulyea, and the Brewster family of Earl Grey in the tragic death

of Pam Henfrey. Pam was a wonderful person and a friend to all. Pam will be greatly missed by the families and her many friends.

Ross and Linda Hurst from Ontario are here in the valley visiting with Ross’s brother Glen Hurst and family, and many friends they have made over the years. The Hursts attended Grenfell’s 100th anniversary weekend and a wonderful time was had by all renewing old friendships and acquaintances.

-Mae Clarke

Fire call came in around 5:00 a.m. Explosions were heard and extreme black smoke bellowed into the sky.

Early Sunday morning July 10, the residents of Sask Beach were awakened at 5:00 a.m. to the sound of several loud bangs. A few minutes later they heard the sound of the air horn on the septic truck, this got people out of bed to investigate and they saw the black smoke bellowing into the sky.

Within minutes the Silton Fire Department responded to the 911 call at the home of Rick and Kim Dell of Sask Beach.

Rick, Kim and Jaxon managed to escape with no injuries, but, their home was destroyed. The wind was fairly strong that morning, however, the fire crew managed to keep the fire contained and save the adjoining properties. For those of you who don’t know Rick, he is the friendly and reliable operator of Aquarius Septic Service who along with Paul Kasick has served the community for the past several years.

Rick’s commitment to Kannata Valley has extended far beyond his work. It was seen first hand when Rick and Kim took the opportunity to further serve the community when they volunteered their time and efforts to help us sandbag as we faced the threat of rising lake waters and flooding. Ken MacDonald, Acting Mayor of Kannata Valley, has established a trust fund through the Conexus Credit Union in Lumsden. Anyone wishing to make a contribution may do so directly to the ‘Dell Family Trust’ at the Conexus Credit Union in Lumsden, or you may drop your donation off at ‘The Desautels’ residence at #151 Lakeshore Drive, Kannata Valley and the funds will be deposited to the trust account in Lumsden.

The Silton Summer Supper held on Sunday, July 10 was another huge success again this year, with over 200 people in attendance. A wonderful homemade meal of ham, turkey, salads, buns, pickles and pies was served. Many folks from miles around came to take in the meal and catch up on news with neighbours and friends. Peta Rich convened the event this year and skillfully gathered and organized an army of volunteers to donate the carefully prepared food items and provide their time to set-up tables, do dishes and clean tables. Nicky’s Cafe (Regina) donated the delicious ham that was served, and Shawn Hansen (Craven) donated the potatoes for the salad. With so many hands

Bulyea and Area Community Hall Management is receiving $12,949 for a Community Hall roof replacement project and Silton Sunshine Club Inc. is receiving $15,000 for a Community Centre Expansion project with the aid of funding through the provincial government’s Community Initiatives Fund.

“This funding is good news for Bulyea and Silton and it also demonstrates our government’s commitment to improving community strength and vitality,” said Glen Hart, MLA for Last MountainTouchwood. “One of the goals of the Community Vitality Program is to support small capital projects that improve the quality, accessibility and use of facilities in communities across the province – a goal which I believe has been well met by these projects.”

The Community Vitality Program was announced in May 2010 to support small capital projects, community pride projects and events, youth and volunteer initiatives, cultural projects and projects in the north. More than 120 Saskatchewan nonprofit and volunteer organizations will receive almost $2 million in similar grants to help with various community projects.

SASKATCHEWAN BASEBALL HALL OF FAME LOCAL INDUCTEES

Baseball Hall of Fame inductee Larry Orth Editor’s note: Each summer, on the third Saturday in August, the Saskatchewan Baseball Hall of Fame conducts an induction ceremony at its location in Battleford, SK, honouring the pioneers on Saskatchewan baseball. At this summer’s August 20 event, three players in the Last Mountain area, Bill Erhardt, Lyle Johnson and Larry Orth are amongst the fourteen being honoured. In our July 5, July 12 and July 19 issues, we give our readers a brief history of each of these local baseball heroes.

Larry Orth was born April 11, 1950, in Esterhazy, SK. and started his baseball career at age 11 in 1961. He remains active in the sport.

During his 50 years in baseball, Larry has contributed to the game of baseball in many local areas where he lived in Saskatchewan, in many capacities. He was a player, a coach/ manager, umpire, umpire clinician, umpire mentor and administrator at local, regional and national levels. He also represented the province of Saskatchewan, serving on committees with Baseball Canada and as a Director of the National Baseball Association.

As a player, Larry played in the Minor baseball program in Langenburg from 1961 through 1972. From 1973 to 1983 he played Senior baseball with the Watrous Lakers.

From 1988 to 2004 Larry played Twilite with the Lockwood Braves in the over 35 maxi level. In 1991 and 1992 he played Twilite baseball with the Lockwood Braves in the masters level.

Earlier in his career, Larry was Assistant Coach for the Langenburg Sandlot Team in 1972; Assistant Coach for the Watrous Mosquito Team in 1987, then Coach for that team in 1988. In 1989-1990 he coached the Watrous PeeWee Team-Provincial finalists, and in 1991-1992 Larry coached the Watrous Ban-

tam Lakers, having completed his Coaching Certification.

Larry began umpiring in 1982 in the minor and senior level baseball, and remains an SBA registered umpire, and continues working the minor leagues. In 1992 Larry umpired the Saskatchewan Summer Games in Prince Albert, and then in 1994 he umpired at the National Bantam Championships in Kelowna, BC. Larry has also umpired at the Canada Cup, at Stonewall, Manitoba and has attained level 3 and National level 4 Umpire status. As well, Larry also attained Nationally Certified Senior Course Conductor status, and since 1992, has conducted Level 1-4 Umpire Clinics in the province. Since 2007, he has been a member of the Louis Slotsve Mentorship Program in Saskatoon, SK. On the Administration side of baseball, Larry participated and contributed to numerous events as a committee member, an organizing host, and an umpire director. He held numerous positions in baseball organizations as Director, President, Vice-President, Chairman and Supervisor. He was a member of the Board of Directors for Baseball Canada in 2008 and 2009, and from 2008 to the present is a member of the Strategic Planning Committee, and was Chef de Mission for Saskatchewan Teams at National Championships 7 times. Larry was the recipient of Zone 5 Sports Leadership Award for his contribution to umpiring. He also was the recipient of the1994 Sask Baseball Senior Umpire of the Year Award.

Larry Orth will be inducted into the Saskatchewan Baseball Hall of Fame at the 27th Annual Induction on August 20, 2011, at Battleford, SK.

Canada has a starry baseball history Canada’s short on shortstops. We’re second-rate at second. Nothing much to rave about at third base, either.

Everywhere else on the baseball diamond, however, Canadians have shone in Major League Baseball.

And if our country were to put together a fictitious allstar team, Canada would put up quite a powerhouse.

While Canadians on MLB rosters continue to be regarded as somewhat of an oddity (on a par with golfers on the PGA Tour), players from north of the 49th parallel have more than merely filled out lineups. All-star honours, batting champs, MVP, Cy Young and Gold Glove award winners have been frequent. Canada even has a Hall of Famer.

Other than obvious holes in the infield (except at first base), Canada would match up with well with almost any country’s best in a one-

game showdown.

On the mound would be Hall of Fame Ferguson Jenkins, the six-time 20-game winner for the Cubs. The bullpen would be led by Eric Gagne, the former Dodger who won the Cy Young award in 2003.

Things get crowded at first base and the battle would be between two current stars, Joey Votto of the Reds and Justin Morneau of the Twins.

Both have a league MVP award to their credit, but Morneau is currently battling concussion and neck problems and is on the disabled list. We’ll give Votto the start and have Morneau come in off the bench.

Montrealer Russell Martin, who was in last week’s allstar game at Phoenix (as was Votto), will start on Canada’s team behind the plate, and our country’s outfielders all carry big bats. George Selkirk of Huntsville, ON, replaced Babe Ruth in 1934 (hitting

.290 in nine seasons with the Yanks), while Melville, SK’s, Terry Puhl and Langley, B.C.’s Larry Walker get the other two spots. A fourth outfielder would be Jason Bay of Trail, BC, currently with the Mets. He would share DH duties with New Brunswick’s Matt Stairs.

While this team would have plenty of offence, it’s around the infield where it would be weak. Dave McKay, Pete Orr and Pete Ward, household names only in their own households, would make this all-time Canadian team by default at second, third and short. On the way up, though, is Blue Jays’ prospect Brett Lawrie of Langley, a third baseman batting .354 through July 8 at AAA Las Vegas.

Lawrie is destined for the big leagues and, ultimately, every future fictitious Canadian all-time all-star team ever put together.

Play the ball as it lies Your ball comes to rest under a tree branch that is almost fully detached from the tree. The branch can be easily moved, as it is not large or heavy. Moving the branch would allow you to play a normal shot. However, playing the ball as it lies is a fundamental Rule of the Game. Rule 13-2 states, a player may not improve or allow to be improved the area of his intended stance or swing.

If you move the branch out of the way, you will incur a 2-stroke penalty in stroke play (or loss of hole penalty in Match Play). You cannot avoid the 2-stroke penalty by returning the branch to its original position before you play your next shot.

However, if the branch is fully detached from the tree, it would be a loose impediment and Rule 23-1 allows you to remove it without penalty.

Hedemann, Christiansen win SGI Canada SK Junior Golf Championships Thea Hedemann and Jerry Christiansen, both of Saskatoon’s Riverside Country Club held on in the final round to take the women’s and men’s sides of the 2011 SGI Canada Saskatchewan Junior Golf Championships at the Chinook Golf Course in Swift Current on Friday, July 8.

Hedemann won the women’s title by an impressive 32 strokes over her nearest competitor, Lisa Reid of Regina. For Hedemann, this is her third junior provincial title after previously winning in 2008 and 2009. The 18-year-old shot a final round 3-over-par 75 to sit at +13 for the week. Third place was claimed by 12-year-old Brooke Hobson of Prince Albert. With the win, Hedemann took home the inaugural Margaret Elliott SGI Canada Junior Women’s Champion award presented by the Regina Ladies Open Golf Tournament.

Jerry Christiansen fired a 3-under-par 68 to hold Jehremy Ryde of Eston for a five-shot victory on the men’s side. Christiansen, originally from Air Ronge but now residing in Saskatoon, finished the week with a cumulative score of 273, –11. Defending champion, Jordan Arndt of Furdale, finished third at 282, –2. Christiansen has now claimed a spot, along with six other golfers, at the 2011 Canadian Junior Boys Championship in Surrey, British Columbia set for August 1 through 5. As well, Thea Hedemann and three other female golfers claimed spots at the 2011 Royale Cup Canadian Junior Girls Championship in Richmond, British Columbia on August 1 through 5.

from the sidelines “Golfer Thomas Levet broke his shin when jumping into a lake after winning the French Open. His formerly straight shin is now a dogleg.” and “The Roger Clemens perjury trial began last week. When players were sworn in, they placed their left hands on the resin bag.”

• R.J. Currie of sportsdeke. com: “Dave Smith, a 69year-old known as the ‘human home run,’ was shot out of a cannon and over the fence at a minor league game last week.

Word is, Smith wants to retire, but his crew can’t find another man of his calibre.”

• Currie again: “Terrell Owens reportedly had surgery in April. He’s been hampered by a torn ACL and an inflamed EGO.” • Jerry Crowe of the L.A. Times, on bad timing at the ballpark: “Did anyone else find it funny that the Dodgers showed ads for ‘Horrible Bosses’ all over the stadium Tuesday night?”

• ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel, on the listing Dodgers: “I don’t know how an organization that sells a beer for $12

runs out of money, but they did.”

• Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle: “The Dodgers have filed for Chapter 11. Hey, it can’t be any grimmer than the first 10 chapters.”

• “Eight months after his divorce from Eva Longoria, Tony Parker reportedly is dating a French national beautypageant winner,” wrote David Thomas of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “We knew Parker was good at dishing out assists, but apparently he’s also pretty good at rebounding.”

• Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel: “I’m not saying Marlins manager Jack McKeon is old, but he doesn’t do a seventh-inning stretch, he just says the hell with it and goes right to bed. And have you ever seen a manager fill out his lineup card with a quill and parchment paper?”

• Janice Hough of leftcoastsportsbabe.com: “During his U.S visit with his bride Catherine, Prince William took part in a charity polo match in Los Angeles Saturday. When

by Bruce Penton asked about it, Sarah Palin remarked that it was amazing how they must have taught the horses how to swim.”

• Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “The Tour de France is underway under the cloud of a doping scandal. In equally shocking sports news, sometime this year, a marathon will be won by a Kenyan.”

• Kaseberg again: “Pamplona’s ‘Running with the Bulls’ was held last week.

Or as the bulls call it: ‘The goring of the drunken morons’.”

LAST MOUNTAIN TIMES 23

RCMP report

by Kelly Kirk

Kelly Kirk “Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches, I slam in the back of my Dragula”.

Lyrics that some of you are familiar with, but may not fully understand. They’re from the song title Dragula written and performed by artist Rob Zombie, who, not unlike myself, is into hot rods, horror movies and heavy metal. Although not from a horror movie, the Dragula car

was a television icon, featured in the 60s hit The Munsters, along with another iconic vehicle, the Munsters Koach.

The Dragula car was built by Richard ‘Korky’ Korkes at Barris Kustoms in the 60s. Quite the spectacle it must have been back then, as the body was built from an actual Owens Corning fibreglass coffin that was purchased for cash from an undisclosed funeral home. The driver sat at the far rear of the coffin in a plexiglass bubble, surrounded mostly by crushed velvet (as was the style of the time). The frame was fully custom, featuring full tube construction and placing the drivetrain and driver a long ways back, much like an old front-engine dragster. The radiator was a custom brass unit shaped like a coffin at the front of the vehicle, with a skull cap and a marble grille shell that resembled a headstone. Powering the Dragula was, well, an

engine suitable for a drag car. A healthy 360hp 289ci Ford small block was equipped with a pair of four barrel carbs on a cross ram intake and backed by a four speed manual transmission.

The exhaust was fabricated to resemble organ pipes, and was completely unmuffled. Wire wheels with skinny tires on the front and Radir wheels with drag slicks on the back rounded out what must have been one heck of a ride down the track. It was raced by Grandpa Munster in the episode Hot Rod Herman to win back the Koach, which Herman Munster lost in a previous drag race.

The Munsters Koach was another truly unique television icon. Built in only 21 days by Barris Kustoms, it started life as three different Model T Ford bodies. The frame was hand fabricated, and the interior, well, once again, red crushed velvet.

The engine was a 289 Ford with,

get this, 10 Weber carbs on top of it. Seeing as how that would be a tuning nightmare, they were mounted in a decorative fashion and had a single four barrel underneath that actually metered the fuel, and was again backed by a four speed manual transmission. 500 hours worth of steel scrollwork and gold curtains round out one creepy package. Now, if you think that sounds like the impossible, remember this, Barris Kustoms were the same shop responsible for the Batmobile and MonkeeMobile, and anything is possible for a price. The cost to build the Koach in 1964 was $18,000. To give you an idea of how much that was back then, the new Ford Mustang debuted midyear 1964, at just a shade over $2000. Although the car could run and drive, it is a little known fact that Herman Munster, being seven feet tall in costume, could not enter or exit the vehicle on camera, and could not drive it wearing shoes.

One crazy 60s classic television show, 70 episodes, two radical hot rods, twelve carburetors and one amazing Kustom Shop.

I’m definitely no expert on statistics, but I’m willing to bet that not a lot of Munster fans are familiar with Rob Zombie and not a lot of Zombie fans knew that one of their favorite songs was based off of a crazy television show from the 60s. There is an old brass lantern at the end of the tunnel though, as I knew, and now so do all of you.

New Constable at Watrous Detachment

Constable Brendan Fonteyne is the newest member of the Watrous RCMP Detachment. A recent graduate of the RCMP training academy in Regina, Constable Fonteyne is two months into his first posting. Members of the Watrous Detachment patrol the Nokomis area, a change made a little more than one year ago. Prior to that, the Nokomis area was patrolled out of Lanigan.

Drug bust in Viscount On July 9, Colonsay RCMP executed a search warrant under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act within the community of Viscount with the assistance of Hanley and Saskatoon Detachments as well as Saskatoon RCMP Police Dog Services. Police located a marijuana grow operation and seized marijuana plants in various stages of development, along with assorted paraphernalia, equipment and firearms. A 38 year old male has been charged with numerous drug and firearms offences and is scheduled to appear in Saskatoon Provincial Court.

Attempted abduction at Regina Beach On the afternoon of July 9, members of the Lumsden RCMP Detachment received a complaint of an intoxicated male wandering around the Regina Beach area. When members attended to the scene a woman approached

them and stated that her four-year-old daughter had been grabbed by an intoxicated man, and reported that when she told him to let her daughter go, he refused and she had to forcibly take her daughter from the man’s arms. Members located and arrested the adult male, 49 year old George Stephen Roberts of no fixed address.

He is facing a Criminal Code Charge of Abduction of a person under Fourteen.

Roberts made his first court appearance on July 12 in Regina Provincial Court.

Abduction arrest made in Yorkton Yorkton Municipal RCMP have arrested a 57-year-old Yorkton resident on July 12 and charged him in relation to a July 6 incident at the Yorkton Exhibition, when a 11-year-old girl was taken from the grounds in white van, and later escaped. Melvin Dale Koroluk, is charged with Kidnapping, Assault, and Unsafe Storage of Firearms. Koroluk made his first court appearance in Yorkton Provincial Court on July 12.

Koroluk was identified as a suspect by the victim when she spotted him on a Yorkton street and alerted her mother. Further investigation and evidence gathered by investigators led to the charges being laid. The firearms charges are the result of a search warrant executed on Koroluk’s residence.

Thefts at Cupar and Saskatchewan Beach The Southey Detachment of the RCMP is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying the persons responsible for thefts in Cupar and Saskatchewan Beach.

Sometime between June 13 and 15, a black and white Reebox bicycle was stolen from a residence in Cupar.

And, sometime between July 1 and 5, 2011, a blue Brandt 45 ft. auger and Powerfist auger motor were stolen from a residence in Saskatchewan Beach. Anyone with information relating to these incidents is asked to call the Southey RCMP Detachment.
