Vimy Ridge – Anti-Masker Bravado and Joining a Cause

By Richard Dowson, Moose Jaw

COVID-19 Mask wearing people are shocked by the anti-mask, anti-vaccine ‘Freedom Rally’ protester’s bravado.

Some wonder, “What if they get sick?”

Most, for religious or other reasons, don’t believe they will get sick. They are fighting for a ‘Cause.’

My Grandfather Walter Parker joined a Cause. His Cause was fighting for King and Country in World War One. In January 1916 he joined the 162 Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force at Burks Falls, Ontario.

Grandpa Parker was thrilled. He and his ‘Ontario Timber Wolves’ buddies were going over to France to kill the ‘Boche’ (slang for Germans). Neither him nor any of his buddies would be hurt, injured or killed.

Grandpa Parker got to France in late March 1917. April 9, 1917 found Grandpa at the Battle at Vimy Ridge. He’d made it just in time. Then the shooting and shelling started. He got freaked out.

Between April 9 and 12, 1917, Canadians fought the Battle of Vimy Ridge. There were more than 10,000 casualties. Of this number, 3,598 were killed. The rest were wounded – had limbs blown off and

shrapnel and bullet holes in them. Not one soldier thought it would happen to him.

But it did.

My Grandfather was stupefied by the experience but kept going. On August 22,

1917 he was at Hill 70 when the Germans sprayed them with mustard gas. He was hospitalized, his lungs damaged, shortening his life and he suffered Shell Shock.

From his hospital bed in England Grandpa wrote my mother, his eldest daughter, telling her he should have never joined the Army. He said it was a terrible mistake.

I still have that letter. I keep it inside the Basket he wove as part of his art therapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Anti Mask, Anti Vaccine people join a Cause. “The government is not going to tell me what I can or can’t do.” Attending a “Freedom Rally” without a mask or social distancing is their right!

One can only wonder, as a crusading Anti-mask, Anti-vaccine patient is rolled into an ICU and is put on a ventilator because he/she contracted COVID-19, will she/he regret joining the Cause?

Youth gives us Bravado – age assigns reality.

Sacred Heart students learn about agriculture during classroom visit with local agronomist Students at Sacred Heart School recently had the opportunity to ask a local agronomist their questions about agriculture during a live video visit in their classroom on March 25.

Organized by Agriculture in the Classroom Saskatchewan, teacher Rene Lewko and her grade three classroom welcomed Moose Jaw intern agronomist Paige Straf for a video presentation on agriculture in Saskatchewan.

Straf shared how she came to be involved with the Ministry of Agriculture here in Moose Jaw, and spoke with students about how she helps ranchers and farmers get the most out of their pastures and croplands.

“I think it’s important to share my knowledge of agriculture with kids because it gives them a better idea of where their food comes from, and provides a connection between real people and farms,” said Straf, in an email with the Moose Jaw Express. “Farmers and ranchers work hard to make sure their crops and livestock are healthy, so we want to share that message with kids and their families.”

She also spoke about the many crops grown here in the province and what those grains are used for, and shared an educational video tour of Triple H Farm, a cattle oper-

Morgan and Miranda Heidecker of Triple H Farms took students on a tour of their cattle operation during a virtual classroom visit last week. (screenshot) ation located in northeast Saskatchewan.

The classroom visit was one of many organized across the province as part of Ag in the Classroom’s programming for Agriculture Literacy Month.

As an annual campaign, Ag Literacy Month aims to share knowledge with kids about Saskatchewan’s agrifood sector — a challenge that both Straf and Lewko feel is worthwhile.

“When I was younger, I would have loved to learn more about agriculture so I’m happy to share my knowledge now,” said Straf.

Lewko, also in email correspondence with the Express, said that the virtual visit was a hit with students, many of whom aren’t often exposed to agriculture as part of their daily lives in Moose Jaw. “I find that children are not exposed to agriculture and farming and it is generally a new topic for them, however they were extremely interested in it,” said Lewko.

The students did some in-classroom supplement learning prior to the visit, which meant they had plenty of questions about cattle ranching and showed off their trivia knowledge with a question and answer period about Saskatchewan grains.

Overall, Lewko felt that the programming from Ag in the Classroom provided her classroom with a positive look at agriculture.

“They loved exploring all of the different farms and the processes the food took until it finally reached our homes,” said Lewko. “A presentation like this shows the students the connection and the importance of agriculture right here in our own province.”

REFLECTIVE MOMENTS

Getting shot in the arm a reason for a celebration There was a buzz of excitement on a recent Monday morning, and it had absolutely nothing to do with the high wind and snow accuJoyce Walter mulation warnFor Moose Jaw Express ing that we all ronjoy@sasktel.net faced as we rose that morning.

Such weather advisories are common in this part of the country and therefore this one did not gain much traction, other than the hope that the wind wouldn’t damage local properties. Whatever snow showed up would melt in a day or two as March moved into April.

No, the excitement that morning was related to an entirely different matter — there was laughter behind the masks and of course there was social distancing as local residents waited for their turn to answer “No” to all the safety questions being asked at the COVID vaccination centre on the Moose Jaw Exhibition Grounds.

This was my second visit to the centre in less than 10 days. My first time was as a companion/assistant to a family member who was eligible for the vaccination several days before my age group was allowed to register for the shot. That’s not to say she was “older” but simply that her age group came before mine on the roll out of the vaccine.

On that first occasion we were greeted by cordial attendants who took our tempera-

tures and asked all the necessary questions to ensure she/we met the criteria to be in the lineup near other folks. I was assured I was more than welcome to join my companion as she rolled up her sleeve for the vaccine.

The needle part of the process was over quickly and we meandered over to the waiting area for the required 15 minutes, a waiting time to ensure the vaccine recipients didn’t develop unusual reactions.

One gentleman looked at me with a question in his eye, and I knew he was thinking: “I didn’t know she was that old!” I smiled at the thought I knew he was having at my expense.

There was laughter and conversation throughout the whole process and we happily made our way back to the parking area where the security person was greeting newcomers with enthusiasm and making sure they lined up correctly, had their masks on, and weren’t trying to squirrel their way in without an appointment.

Then the day came for my turn. Of course there would be a snow and wind advisory for that day, but with a morning appointment scheduled, I figured I would miss the worst of the predicted storm. I had an extra coat, my winter boots, a snack and my gloves in the car — just in case I might be stranded between home and vaccine.

The parking lot area was congested, much like a grocery store lot, but no one was glaring or backing out without shoulder checking. And one driver still smiled and appeared patient when the couple with walkers apparently didn’t see the backup lights and wandered in the path of the mov-

Provincial budget must include a plan for workers: SFL For Moose Jaw Express

With the release of the provincial budget expected this week, the Saskatchewan Federation of Labour (SFL) recently released its priorities for the 2021-22 provincial budget, which must be focused on putting workers first through significant investment in job creation, public services, and making life better for working people in Saskatchewan.

“Saskatchewan workers have shown incredible strength and resilience throughout the COVID-19 pandemic,” said SFL President Lori Johb. “This year’s budget should recognize the sacrifices working people in Saskatchewan have made over the past year to ensure that we all had access to the vital services that we all rely on.”

Johb highlighted some of the things the SFL would be looking for in the 2021-22 Provincial Budget, including: • Investment in creating good jobs to get Saskatchewan back to work;

• Paid sick days for all workers; • Investment in safer workplaces including proper PPE and rapid testing for all workplaces; • Introduction of a $15 an hour minimum wage to boost the economy as the province recovers from COVID-19; • Investment in our Crown Corporations and public services that we all rely on; • A plan to replace private, for profit long term care with a public system.

“The past year has been difficult for workers, and even before the pandemic, working people were struggling with low wages, eroding working conditions, reduced job security, and an increased cost of living,” Johb said. “Next week’s budget is a chance for the government to make a significant investment in working people that is focused on COVID-19 recovery.

It’s time to invest in our province’s future.

It’s time to build back better.”

ing vehicle.

I gave negative replies to all the questions, presented by forehead for a temperature reading and was directed to Table No. 5 where I settled into the seat, exposed my winter-white arm and looked away as the needle approached. I felt absolutely nothing and was surprised when the prick point didn’t bleed and I didn’t require one of those round bandaids. Then it was off to the sitting area and then out the exit door.

While heading home and thinking about the experience, I had to agree with the friend who several days earlier made the effort to tell me how efficient he found the vaccine process. He hoped I would perhaps write something about how pleased he and his spouse were with their treatment.

I had also heard similar comments about the testing centre procedure in another building across the roadway. The consensus is that the Moose Jaw experience was much better than some they had seen elsewhere on the television news.

It is comforting to know that even in these extreme times, people are taking the time to be thankful for the pleasant manner by which all are greeted. Whoever would have thought a year ago that we would be celebrating and smiling after a shot in the arm?

An Apology It was not my intention to cause heartache or to offend anyone in my editorial (Questions with No Solid Answers), that was written on March 21, 2021 and was published in our publications.

Joan Ritchie Although I did pose questions EDITOR regarding the reasons for the level of quarantines and lockdowns, I in no way was disregarding the pandemic or diminishing its seriousness, as my family has also been affected by COVID personally during this time.

As citizens of this province and our country in which we live, we respect and follow all of the government rules and guidelines that have been outlined by the authorities, and understand the need to be aware of COVID transmission to stop its spread.

In regards to the mention of what Hitler did to the Jews, I greatly apologize for this analogy and do regret my choice of words in comparison, as what was done to the Jewish people was an atrocity. As people of faith, we regard the Jewish people very highly.

I am sincerely sorry for any offense I may have caused.

City working with new health partners to deal with pandemic Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) has given the City of Moose Jaw new partners to help deal with the pandemic and ensure better communications between the organizations.

Dr. David Torr, Dr. Ashok Chhetri and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Saqib Sahab met with municipal officials on March 29 to discuss ongoing concerns about COVID-19 and its so-called variants of concern. They also discussed a letter that was sent to city council that asked the municipality to take stronger measures to combat the variants similar to what Regina recently did, including but not limited to shutting down the city.

While the Moose Jaw Express was unable to confirm the content of the letter, a source suggested that community doctors or concerned residents might have sent the letter urging council to act.

Torr and Chhetri have “drastically improved the com-

munications” among the SHA, provincial government and municipality, Mayor Fraser Tolmie said in an email.

Council had asked its previous SHA representatives to make a presentation last fall, but those individuals have moved on and there was almost no communication after their departure.

Torr has been particularly helpful to the municipality, as he co-ordinated a vaccination drive-thru centre in Moose Jaw in a co-operative effort with city hall.

“What has been appreciated most by the city is the new dialogue and the willingness to work together. We know that the vaccine is greatly appreciated, and we have been collectively advocating for the City of Moose Jaw to get the vaccine to as many residents as possible,” Tolmie added. “Until that time, we have been asking the community to adhere to all the provincial guidelines as we closely monitor the situation in Moose Jaw.”

APAS responds to carbon tax ruling for Moose Jaw Express

The Agricultural Producers Association of EXPRESS Saskatchewan (APAS) is disappointed with the Supreme Court's ruling that the federal carbon tax is constitutional.

APAS president Todd Lewis says the decision will impact agricultural producers.

“Saskatchewan agricultural producers have been very concerned about the impact of the federal carbon tax on our sustainability,” Lewis said in a press release. “As producers, we don’t set the prices for our products, and can’t pass those extra costs along the value chain, so it comes

right out of our pockets.”

APAS estimates the cost of producing an acre of wheat will increase by $12.50 by the time the carbon tax is fully implemented in 2030. These cost increases will include trucking, rail freight and grain drying.

Lewis adds the federal carbon pricing policy has impacted the financial sustainability of producers, and that the needs of producers would have to be addressed by the federal government.

“The Court has upheld the federal government’s jurisdiction, and now the government must act to resolve the outstanding issues faced by our industry.”

Tom Lukiwski Report MP Moose Jaw -Lake Centre -Lanigan Tom Lukiwski, Member of Parliament for Moose JawLake Centre-Lanigan condemned the hike in the federal carbon tax.

“For the Liberal government to impose this tax in the midst of a pandemic seems like a cruel April Fool’s joke but, sadly, it’s very serious,” Lukiwski said in a press release on Thursday.

The federal Liberal’s carbon tax plan requires that the tax be increased by $10 per tonne per year until 2022 and then by $15 per tonne per year until 2030. This year’s increase will see consumer gas prices rise on average by nearly nine cents per litre which Lukiwski described as a blow to efforts to rebuild the economy.

Carbon Tax Is No Joke: Lukiwski

“Carbon taxes failed in Australia and they are failing here. Three years into the carbon tax and Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions are actually higher than they were under the Harper government.”

Lukiwski repeated the Conservative Party’s stance on scrapping the carbon tax.

“Out of sheer stubbornness, the Liberals are plowing ahead with the carbon tax despite it’s proven failure. Ultimately, a Conservative government under Erin O’Toole will scrap the carbon tax and develop more innovative, more effective climate change policies. In the meantime, it would be better for consumers, for business, for the economy and for jobs if the Liberals would suspend the tax immediately, at least until we get through the pandemic or vote them out.”

“The federal Liberals have delayed delivering a budget for two years because of COVID yet they are carrying out their carbon tax hikes right on schedule without review or debate. At a minimum, they should have taken into consideration the fragile state of the economy as we emerge from the pandemic and at least have given us a year’s grace on the carbon tax hike,” he continued.

The tax will have wide-ranging effects on the economy beyond what motorists pay at the pumps.

“This tax makes it more expensive to bring food to grocery stores and supplies to manufacturers of medical supplies. There isn’t a single segment of the economy that will escape higher costs. Even small business owners and restaurants, already struggling with new lockdown regulations, will now face higher costs to bring in their inventory. Seniors and others on fixed incomes will notice increases in their daily costs of living.”

Lukiwski said that the carbon tax hike was even more of a travesty given that it is an unproven environmental policy.

The Anonymity Plague resent themselves, their location, and their intentions.

They can be duplicitous about virtually anything simply because it is so difficult, if not impossible, to know who they are. Our modern communications can, and are, being used diabolically and that ability to be deceitful is directly linked to the capability to be anonymous.

Fake news is one such example. Anyone with a modicum of computer skills can make a web page and report any sort of news, information, or false facts without any genuine consequence. Why? Because they can hide in an electronic never-never-land of unknown authorship.

Millions of insults and ad hominem attacks fly around this planet at lightening speed. With human nature being what it is, hurling an insult is a great deal easier if the insulter can remain unknown. A not so small amount of hurt is dished out by less than kindhearted people from the misty, foggy world of the electronic void. For the many who do not have as thick a skin as they would like, the anonymity factor leaves one feeling like they are boxing with a shadow.

It is not to suggest in any way that the recent censorship and blocking of social media accounts is a good thing, it is not. Censorship is dangerous. The ability to be anonymous is an entirely different matter. Being censored is not a good thing, but having the ability to hide in the shadows while sending damaging communications is quite another.

Scams are another vile and telling outcome of the ability to be an electronic ghost. Who of us have not experienced

21043PM0 21044PM0

an attempt to be deceived via our modern beeping and dinging devices? Scams, like insults, are sent out by the millions each and every day. The cornerstone, and sometimes success, of these frauds is primarily due to the fact that the fraudster can remain hidden. The word scam itself has become synonymous with our modern electronic world.

The endless forms of communication combined with the ability to be unknown while using those varying electronic mediums is yet another example of a newly formed social problem we have inherited by our blind acceptance of modern scientific know-how. When entertaining our next so-called life enriching advancement we ought to remind ourselves of the problems we incur from adopting the hitech environment we now live in.

It would be prudent to pause before we rush headlong into ever growing technologies and consider the negative fallout they burden us with. Let us remember the valuable words of J.K. Rowling who said, “Humans have a knack for choosing precisely those things that are worst for them.”

A final word for those who have suffered from the negative impact this plague of anonymity has caused; take heart and solace in knowing that people who live in the shadows seldom if ever know what sunlight is.

Reminder: Elm pruning ban begins April 1 for Moose Jaw Express

The annual ban on pruning elm trees in the province has kicked in on April 1.

The ban, which continues until August 31, is designed to limit the spread of Dutch elm disease (DED). During this period, it is illegal to prune elm trees.

The timing of the ban aligns with the time of year when the elm bark beetles that spread DED are most active. Trimming your trees can attract the insects, increasing the chance of an infection.

There are other ways you can protect your trees: • prune your elms before or after the ban period; • remove unhealthy and dead elm wood cuts, reducing places for beetles to breed

and the risk of infection; and • if you see an elm showing signs of DED, report it to your local municipality .

Signs of DED appear around late June.

Ensure you dispose of all elm wood as soon as possible and do so properly. Elm trees can be removed at any time of year, but you will need an elm wood disposal permit from the city.

Transporting wood can also spread DED and other diseases. There are restrictions in place regarding the transportation of elm firewood.

More information on DED is available at moosejaw.ca/dutch-elm-disease/ or visit saskatchewan.ca/forestry.

LETTER TO THE

EDITOR

Re: Vaccination Sites I am asking the Provincial Government, Mayors office and all other agencies that they would consider opening more vaccination sights in Moose Jaw. As cases are on the rise I feel it is imperative this be done as there are many residents in our community due to circumstances not able to travel to the only vaccination sight available at the exhibition sight. Please make this a priority and then get the information out to the public. We all need to keep each other safe and healthy.

Regards, Linda E Morgan

Chinese artist to refurbish Legion mural by adding colour, enhancing details

Ross Lundgren

Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

The owners of the former Royal Canadian Legion building at 268 High Street West plan to refurbish the mural on the structure’s side by adding colour to enhance its vibrancy.

China-based Jin Cheng International Real Estate Ltd. took ownership of the 94-yearold building in May 2020 after Branch No. 59 — which is now a tenant — decided to sell its home rather than renovate it. The real estate company then began to renovate the building, which included installing new windows and making interior repairs.

It has now turned its attention to the “Lest We Forget” mural, which community artist Dale Cline painted in 1992 on the east side of the building. The multi-panel mural focuses on the First World War, the Second World War and Korean War, and the Cold War and the legion’s community activities.

A representative of the company spoke to the City of Moose Jaw’s murals advisory committee recently about enhancing the painting. The committee chose to make no decisions until all its voting members were present.

“It’s going to be great … . So it’s kind of exciting that these newcomers to Moose Jaw are taking over that building (and) they’re really taking pride in the artwork that was there, and they’re going to just improve it,” Coun. Heather Eby, the repre-

Eby praised the company for its plan to enhance the mural and pay for the rehabilitation, which she thought was honourable since it did not need to do that after purchasing the building.

Legion president Roy LaBuick looked forward to seeing the mural touched up and enhanced.

“In general, I got no issues with that.

They’re going to update it and add a few things to it, (so) I’m all for it,” he said. “I think it’s absolutely wonderful.”

Murals are important to Moose Jaw, whether on that building or other structures throughout the community, LaBuick continued. They attract many tourists, and they enhance the aesthetic look of the city.

“It has stood the test of time (during the

last 29 years) … ,” he added. “It has been a really nice addition to the building, that’s for sure.”

The real estate business plans to use Xinzheng Liu to update the mural since Xinzheng has more than 30 years of experience in the art world and graduated from the well-known Chinese arts college Tsinghua University Academy of Arts and Design, a letter to the committee explained.

Instead of painting over the mural, the Chinese artist will re-create the picture on panel boards, which will then be attached to the wall.

“It is guaranteed that the theme, overall

structure and tone of the original painting, and the historical figures, events and buildings of the original painting will not be changed,” the letter continued.

The goals of rehabilitating the mural will include increasing the details and proportions of the memorial cross and First World War-focused Vimy Ridge monument, enhance the war scene from the Second World War to increase its storytelling, and make the UN peacekeeping vehicle and torch more realistic.

Furthermore, the text of two poems in the mural — “In Flanders Fields” by Lt.-Col. John McRae and “Now in Flanders” by poet Edna Jacques — will be restored for better readability, while portraits of the poets will be added. Xinzheng will also add scenes to the third panel from the Gulf War and Afghanistan to represent the modern military.

Jin Cheng International Real Estate expects the project to cost $10,000 and will pay for the restoration work, although it did ask the murals committee to consider supporting its request for funding through the Downtown Façade Improvement Grant program. Xinzheng will likely start working when the weather improves.

Sask. RCMP now allowed to participate in Clare’s Law due to regulatory changes Larissa Kurz

Amendments to the RCMP’s governing legislation will now allow RCMP in Saskatchewan to participate in the domestic violence disclosure protocol known as Clare’s Law, alongside municipal police.

“We have been working persistently towards this day for over 10 months, to ensure the people in the communities we police in Saskatchewan are able to exercise their right to ask and participate in Clare’s Law,” said C/Supt. Alfredo Bangloy, Acting Commanding Officer for the Saskatchewan RCMP. “In order to participate in Clare’s Law, changes were required to federal regulations, which we have worked diligently to obtain. We’re committed to continuing to support those facing violence in relationships, intimate partner violence and gender-based violence.”

Formally titled the Interpersonal Violence Disclosure Protocol Act, Clare’s Law allows police to share information about an intimate partner’s past violent or abusive behaviour with residents who may be at risk of domestic abuse.

The act came into effect in June of 2020, and Saskatchewan RCMP indicated that while they had a part in developing the legislation, privacy laws surrounding information disclosure would prevent them from participating at that time.

The federal government and the RCMP, in consultation with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner, began working to ensure

Working with Public Safety Canada, new sections have been added to RCMP Regulations 2014 allowing for Saskatchewan RCMP to participate in Clare’s Law. Saskatchewan RCMP is now taking Clare’s Law applications at detachments in the province. Applications can be made on a right-to-ask or right-to-know model and will be considered on a case-by-case basis by a committee.

Saskatchewan was the first province in Canada to implement Clare’s Law legislation, and the Saskatchewan RCMP is now the first division to begin participating in the protocol.

Edible garden bed in Crescent Park returning this spring with new array of veggies Larissa Kurz

City gardener Sarah Regent is already getting prepared to plant the many flower beds around the city this spring, and she’s excited to say that one particular bed will be growing a selection of edible options once again.

For the second year in a row, Regent will be planting a selection of vegetables instead of flowers in one of the city’s garden beds in Crescent Park, following a big positive response to the idea last year.

“We had lots of interest in the edible bed, which is great to see,” said Regent. “People were stopping by, curious about it, grabbing some snacks [and so] we brought it back this year.”

The vegetable selection will be a little different this year, Regent explained, partially due to some bug problems but largely thanks to public input.

Cherry tomatoes and basil will be returning, due to their popularity with folks last year. The bed will also be growing swiss chard, which is new, a new type of sunflowers, and a few different kinds of peppers.

Residents are still welcome to stop by the garden bed and sample the produce, once it’s ready later this summer, and also to enjoy the aesthetic of the arrangement.

The vegetable garden bed will once again be located in the southeast corner of Crescent Park, featuring a new lineup of edible options for people to taste. (photo

by Larissa Kurz) In fact, that’s part of the motivation behind the idea of planting vegetables in a city garden bed, said Regent — to prove that plants can be both pretty and productive, especially when it comes to food security.

“There’s variety, lots of colour, which is important too. [We want] to show off just how pretty some of these edibles can be,” said Regent. “The big thing is to show people that ‘ornamental’ and ‘edible’ ar21042BS2 21042BS3

en’t exclusive [and] to encourage people to get out into the garden and connect with nature, their food, and the local food movement.”

The veggie garden project won’t be expanding this year, which Regent said is largely due to COVID-19 concerns, but the idea is still on the table for the future.

The edible garden bed won’t be planted for

a while yet, as the city’s crews will have to wait for some warmer temperatures to ensure the vegetables’ best success.

In the meantime, the gardening department will focus on planting the remainder of the city’s flower beds to create colourful displays once again this year.

“We’re changing up the colours, trying to bring a bit of cheer for people this year,” said Regent.

Regent and her crew plant thousands of flowers around the city each spring, sourced locally using a request process.

It takes several weeks to get everything snugly in the ground, but Regent said it's a project well worth the effort.

“It looks good right away, [when] we plant a bed, it just instantly brings the colour, and then it just fills out over the summer and gets better,” said Regent.

Moose Jaw residents can expect to see some colourful flowers popping up around Moose Jaw near the end of May or the beginning of June, promised Regent, and they also should keep an eye out for some veggies blossoming in their home in Crescent Park later this summer.

Poor roads force Canadian motorists to pay extra $126 annually in vehicle repairs: CAA Moose Jaw Express staff

Canadians are spending almost $3 billion every year to repair their vehicles due to poor road infrastructure, according to a new study from the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA).

CAA’s analysis revealed the average Canadian driver incurs an extra $126 in costs annually because of poor roads — a total of $2.6 billion for motorists collectively, a news release explained. That cost happens through vehicle repairs, higher maintenance and other operating expenses.

These extra costs add up to more than $1,000 over a 10-year lifespan of a vehicle.

“Canada’s roads are vital for commuters, business and connecting communities,” said Ian Jack, vice-president of public affairs for CAA national. “This study shows for the first time the hidden cost to drivers of below-average roads. And it demonstrates that governments would save money in the long run if they brought roads up to — not perfection — but a good standard. That should be attainable.”

A vehicle is the second-largest expense for most households, he continued. When Canadians pay higher vehicle operating costs due to those poor-quality roads; that is money they no longer have to spend on everyday wants and needs.

The study used self-reported data from provincial and municipal agencies, which indicated that close to half — 43 per cent — of Canadian roads are below average, the news release said. Using the most recent Statistics Canada data, the study calculated how much more motorists pay in maintenance and other costs when they drive on poor roads compared to good roads.

“Good doesn’t mean brand new, just consistently well-maintained,” the release added.

Fixing roads before they can deteriorate is a “win-win proposition” since it saves

governments and motorists money, Jack said. CAA’s study found that spending $1 on pavement preservation eliminates or delays the spending of $6 to $10 on repairs later.

The report’s analysis corresponds to a typical or “normal” year using the most recently available data, the news release added. The report assumes a continuous use of roads and kilometres driven by Canadians compared to the unusual decrease in traffic volumes during the pandemic.

Executive summary According to the CAA report, the average annual cost of poor roads per vehicle in Saskatchewan is $88; Prince Edward Island had the highest average annual cost per year at $262, while Alberta’s cost is $49 per year and Manitoba’s cost is $87 per year.

Eighteen per cent of Canadian roads are in poor or very poor condition, 24 per cent are rated fair, while 52 per cent of roads are considered good or very good, the report indicated. While this signals that there are more good roads than poor roads, the poor roads still add up: Canada has 75,000 kilometres of roads in poor condition and another 43,000 kilometres in very poor condition.

In Saskatchewan, 48 per cent of the province’s 26,916 highway kilometres are rated below good condition, while 41 per cent of the province’s 30,472 non-highway kilometres are rated below good conditions.

Using data from Statistics Canada, CAA determined that the estimated average annual vehicle kilometres travelled in Saskatchewan is 15,991 kilometres; that figure is highest in Nova Scotia at 19,876 kilometres. This is based on 45 per cent of motorists driving on highways and 55 per cent driving on non-highways.

There are roughly 23 million passenger cars on the road nationwide.

By Joyce Walter For Moose Jaw Express

Spring might be here according to the calendar, but some days there is still a chill in the air, a chill that could be removed with a stove-top beef stew or a skillet chicken dinner, followed by an apple dessert.

This week’s recipes come from clippings saved over the years, recipes that looked interesting at the time and are still tasty when prepared today.

1-10 oz. can low sodium beef or mushroom broth salt and pepper to taste Pour Italian dressing over beef chunks in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal bag and flip bag several times to evenly coat beef chunks. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook bacon in Dutch oven or large, deep skillet on medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove bacon from pan, drain on paper towels and discard drippings.

Add mushrooms and onion to Dutch oven and cook about 10 minutes until tender. Stir occasionally.

Drizzle remaining honey over apples and allow to stand 2-3 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream. Serves four.

Facebook scammers attempt to impersonate Sask. Wildlife Federation Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

Scammers on Facebook attempted to pose as the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation (SWF) and invited people to “friend” the new page, but SWF staff’s quick action helped shut down the deception.

SWF spokeswoman Chelsea Walters — the organization’s Facebook page administrator — explained that she became aware of the fraud attempt on March 27 after several followers informed her that they were receiving friend requests from a page calling itself “Saskatchewan-wildlife.”

“I said, ‘That’s not us,’ and then my husband sent us a link and (I) looked at this person’s profile. It looks like somebody’s profile might have been hacked,” said Walters.

The fake profile used SWF’s picture and name, while it shared content that the charity had previously uploaded.

The scam also included the chance to win a crossbow if people accepted the friend request.

Walters told everyone who had received a friend request from the fake SWF account to decline the request and

report the profile to Facebook. Within about 30 minutes, the social media company had shut down the fraudulent account.

This type of thing has not happened before to the SWF, Walter said. However, she is the administrator of several other Facebook pages and knows that scams have hit others during the past year, especially since more people have moved their activities online. Particularly vulnerable groups run regular contests and ask followers to submit material — such as pictures — to be included in magazines or other literature.

This scam did concern Walters when she first learned about it.

“I was freaking out a little bit because it’s my responsibility and it was Saturday morning and there was no one to really check in on,” she said. “But the good thing about it is, it’s a person and not a business page, so it was actually built on a person’s account, which is a first red flag you might notice.

“If somebody’s business offers you friendship, in the

Facebook world, a business is a page. It can’t be a person.”

Walters recommended that if people receive a “friend request” from a business page on Facebook, they should decline the request and report it.

Upcoming activities The Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation has several activities planned for this summer, but many events will depend upon pandemic restrictions. Some activities in limbo include a yearly spawn camp at Buffalo Pound Lake and a kids’ camp.

Activities that are online and going ahead are a backyard biodiversity program, various classroom in a box programs, and worksheets in libraries.

“We’re trying to respond with things as they come. So we’ll see how it goes,” Walters added. “The quicker things open up, the quicker we’ll be able to go back to some of our regular programming.”

Riding the rails 1930s-style lands man in court Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

Taking a train trip across Canada can be a sightseer’s dream, but you will likely end up in court if you ride the rails like it’s the 1930s.

Simon Morin appeared in Moose Jaw provincial court on March 31, where he pleaded guilty to breaching the Railway Safety Act, specifically, unlawfully entering Canadian Pacific (CP) property where rail equipment operates.

Judge Daryl Rayner gave the 24-year-old an absolute discharge, the lowest-level adult sentence an offender can receive. This means Morin will not be left with a criminal record.

Rayner gave Morin the absolute discharge since it wasn’t

contrary to the public interest, Morin was unaware that what he did was a criminal offence, he was polite and co-operative with police, and he had been on probation since November without incident.

The judge did impose a victim surcharge of $100.

CP employees informed CP police on Nov. 20, 2020, that they had found someone riding on one of the locomotives that was then refuelling in Moose Jaw, federal Crown prosecutor Suzanne Young explained. Police arrived on scene and arrested Morin; they learned that he had boarded the train in his hometown of Sault St. Marie, Ont., and planned to travel to British Columbia.

Young added that Morin has no criminal record and has

taken steps to address the matter.

Morin is employed as a tree planter in Sault St. Marie in the summer, while he travels across Canada in the winter, explained Legal Air lawyer Suzanne Jeanson.

While in police custody, officers found him to be polite, co-operative and “nice.”

“When I spoke with him, he told me he wasn’t aware at the time that that behaviour was criminal … ,” she continued. “But I think it’s safe to say he’s learned from this experience. He most certainly appreciates how serious this is … . He will not repeat it. He has not done so since (and) he will not in the future.”

Murals committee could refocus priorities to include sculptures and artwork Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

With only three members, the City of Moose Jaw’s murals committee is considering revamping its focus to include sculptures and artwork to generate more interest in the group’s activities.

The group — composed of two residents and city council representative Coun.

Heather Eby — met for its monthly meeting on March 25. Agenda items included a presentation by murals artist Grant McLaughlin, a proposal to refurbish the mural on the former Legion building, a possible new home for a Chinese mural, and presentations from city administration.

The committee discussed the topics but did not decide anything since one voting member was absent.

Derek Blais, director of parks and recreation, spoke to the committee about developing a public art policy that would revamp the group’s focus to include public sculptures and works of art, Eby said. The group discussed the proposal and decided

to work in that direction for the next few months.

“That was interesting. And that, I’m thinking, might actually spark new interest in the community,” she continued.

“We need more than three people on that committee, really.”

There is also the possibility that the murals committee could work with Tourism Moose Jaw or other tourism-related groups as part of the efforts to modernize the committee’s structures.

“The people on the committee are really passionate about it and really excited to get some things going, but we just kind of feel like our hands are tied when (it’s) such a small committee (and has two new members) … ,” Eby added. “The murals committee has been alive in Moose Jaw for 30 years. I guess to refresh it wouldn’t be a bad thing.”

The community artist McLaughlin updated the committee about

Passage of assisted suicide bill concerns palliative care, mental health advocates Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

The Canadian Senate recently passed Bill C-7, which expands medical assistance in dying (MAID) — or assisted suicide — to more Canadians, including those with intolerable suffering but who are not near natural death and people with irremediable mental illness.

The changes for people who are suffering and not near the end of their natural life take effect immediately, while it will be two years before those suffering from mental illnesses can apply.

Hospice palliative care “Bill C-7 certainly put a spotlight on how Canadians are treated at the end of their life. Our association is really here to advocate for quality and access to hospice palliative in Saskatchewan,” said Cameron Choquette, board chair with the Saskatchewan Hospice Palliative Care Association.

Hospice palliative care is available in Saskatchewan, but it is difficult to access because of a lack of dedicated, funded beds, Choquette pointed out. However, great progress has been made to open palliative centres; one recently opened in St. Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon while a new building is going up in Prince Albert.

Pioneer Lodge in Moose Jaw is also home to several palliative care beds that Heartland Hospice funds and supports.

“There are really good opportunities to increase the access to palliative hospice care, but what is (also) likely needed is a comprehensive plan on how to ensure all Saskatchewan people die with dignity and die according to their wishes,” said Choquette.

There isn’t a province-wide plan to address hospice palliative care because of the merger of health regions several years ago, he explained. Furthermore, there hasn’t been a dedicated plan to address whether there are enough beds in the province and whether they are accessible.

The association’s Canadian partners are working every day to ensure that the dying can die in comfort, which is what is

important to hospice care practitioners, Choquette added. In Saskatchewan, the conversation needs to focus on whether every resident — rural and urban — has equal access to palliative care.

Mental health The Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) is “extremely concerned” about the passage of Bill C-7, especially since mental illnesses are not terminal, said Phyllis O’Connor, executive director of the CMHA Saskatchewan Division.

“There is always the possibility of recovery and the hope for recovery, so we feel that offering medically assisted death is probably not the best choice,” she remarked.

What is required are adequate services and supports that people can access, so they do not reach the point where they feel their only option is assisted suicide, O’Connor continued. The CMHA doesn’t deny that people suffer from mental illnesses; however, recovery is possible.

“We’re strongly encouraging the government to make sure that all the supports people need to have an effective recovery from their mental health crisis and get the appropriate treatment in a timely and adequate fashion (are available), and then the need for that medically assisted death is not there,” she added.

In Saskatchewan, mental health services are “very poor” because they are difficult to access, while wait times are “terrible” — from six to 10 months in some cases to see a psychiatrist, O’Connor said. Furthermore, many people with severe mental illness don’t have the funds to pay for private counsellors.

“Getting the access to those services … it’s a very convoluted system,” she continued, adding it’s difficult for people to enter the system, and it’s underfunded.

There is no cure to mental illness, but there is treatment and recovery, added O’Connor. That treatment can help bring people to a good, fulfilling life.

Artist Grant McLaughlin works on one of the Model T Fords in the “Baseball” mural. He has agreed to advise the city’s murals committee with its activities. (Photo by Jason G. Antonio) his work to refurbish existing murals and helped members understand the committee’s history during the last three decades, since he has been associated with the group and its activities from the start.

Eby was excited that McLaughlin was willing to be an advisor and help refocus the committee’s efforts.

“To keep this thing going properly, we really need the historical context of it, and he knows the logistics of putting a mural up and how to make it last,” she said.

“He said when they first started the committee 30 years ago, they never thought about ever having to repair a mural. They

just thought, ‘Well, let’s just put these murals up.’ And then 10 years down the road (they said), ‘Oh my goodness, these things are in disrepair, now what are we doing to do?’”

It’s great to have murals in the community, but there’s no point in having them if they are not preserved, continued Eby. McLaughlin’s institutional knowledge will be valuable, especially since the murals committee is now more focused on restoration and repair than creating new murals, which cost $25,000 per piece.

“So I’m excited about the potential of the public art policy … because I think it could really ramp things up. We could get a couple of sculptures and we could get some other funky things in our downtown and parks,” she added. “And I think that’s exciting.”

The committee has set aside nearly $10,000 this year to help McLaughlin make repairs to existing murals.

In his report to the group, McLaughlin noted that his design for “The Lost Murals” mural in 2017 cost $20,000, while it cost $900 to install, caulk, and touch up the Canada 150 mosaic mural during that same year. Meanwhile, in 2016, it cost $392 to touch up five other murals throughout the community.

Flood, fire, or ice storm, city’s emergency office prepared for any disaster Jason G. Antonio - Moose Jaw Express

The next time a major flood, fire, tornado, natural disaster, or train derailment affects the area, Moose Jaw’s emergency measures organization (EMO) office will swing into action to address the situation.

“Our operating procedure is to provide protection, give advanced notice or warning, and do everything in our best ability to keep everyone within the area safe,” said Mike Russell, deputy fire chief and EMO co-ordinator.

When responding to an emergency, the EMO office must determine whether it should activate an emergency operations centre (EOC) and at which severity level it should start, he continued. This can be a fluid situation since there are many factors to consider and decisions to make.

If a response is required outside of the normal EMO operations, such as a train derailment, several agencies would be involved, and the municipality might send heavy equipment to assist, noted city manager Jim Puffalt. Therefore, the EOC would have powers to bring in more resources — provincial and federal — to manage the disaster.

Working behind the scenes The last time the EMO office nearly activated its EOC was in December 2019 during a major power outage. The office was one hour away from making the call before learning that SaskPower was resolving the matter.

The office did not need to call in any of its partners at that time, Russell said. Instead, he and Puffalt met to review logistics, operations, planning and finances. The office also provided regular updates to the provincial government.

The EMO office and municipality can handle almost every emergency by using resources already here. Sometimes there may not be a need to declare a state of emergency.

Some partners involved with emergency preparedness include the Red Cross, search and rescue, Salvation Army, the Saskatchewan Health Authority, and national and federal agencies. The EMO office also communicates with both school divisions, SaskPower, SaskEnergy, and Gibson’s Refinery.

Pandemic keeps EMO active NOTICE OF PREPARATION OF ASSESSMENT ROLL R.M. OF TERRELL NO. 101

Russell and his team are currently in a quasi-state of emergency with the pandemic. He explained that he and Puffalt began preparing in February 2020 by declaring a level 1 emergency operations centre and having daily planning meetings to decide when to close public buildings. They also kept EOC members updated.

“We’re still doing that, but it’s scaled down,” he said, noting he continues to receive regular updates from the province and Saskatchewan Health Authority. He also spoke regularly with a federal agency dedicated to emergency response and recovery.

Dealing with floods In 2011 the City of Estevan declared a state of emergency because major floods hit the area. Puffalt was the city manager there and recalled how intense those weeks were. At one point, he attempted to convince Transport Canada to let a helicopter drop off materials at the water treatment plant since water surrounded it.

“When these things happen … you got to be flexible and fluid and be able to roll with it because there’s no manual for this,” he added.

The EMO office has an in-depth plan when responding to emergencies, and it also ensures everyone involved with the organization is trained on how to respond to situations, Russell said. The office reviews its plan and manual regularly, holds table-top exercises — usually during non-pandemic times — and ensures the response plan meets the needs of Moose Jaw and area.

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO ADOPT BYLAW NO. 5642 PLANNING PUBLIC NOTICE BYLAW, 2021

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO AMEND ZONING BYLAW NO. 5346

The Council of the City of Moose Jaw intends to consider a bylaw pursuant to The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to adopt a Planning Public Notice Policy.

The Council of the City of Moose Jaw intends to consider a bylaw pursuant to The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend the City of Moose Jaw’s Zoning Bylaw No. 5346.

Written submissions must be received by Planning and Development Services, 228 Main Street North, Moose Jaw, SK S6H 3J8, by 10:00 AM on Monday, April 26th, 2021 in person or by email at planning@moosejaw.ca. Questions may be directed to the Department of Planning and Development Services by email or by phone at 306-694-4443.

Evacuating people depends upon the situation, he continued. For example, the EMO office was in regular contact with the Red Cross and Sask. Polytechnic during the December 2019 ice storm. People in vulnerable sectors would have been evacuated first to the college, especially if the power had stayed out for hours.

The group also checked if it had generators, fuel for machines and vehicles, other available buildings, and water supplies.

“These things were happening in the background while we were waiting for the power to come back on … ,” said Russell. “There is lots done behind the scenes that people don’t really know about.”

Handling forest fires The EMO office could also respond to evacuations where people come from other affected areas, said Puffalt.

When he was city manager in North Battleford in 2016, major fires ripped through northern Saskatchewan and forced hundreds of residents to relocate south. That city had to provide these people with food and entertainment, which included giving them access to recreational activities and venues.

While fires are a concern here, very few people will ever be affected by floods, said Fire Chief Rod Montgomery.

Plenty of mitigation efforts have been implemented to prevent flooding downtown, so it would have to be a 1-in500-year flood to have a catastrophic effect.

Responsibility for decision-making Once a state of emergency is declared, the decision-making responsibility falls on the mayor and city manager, with the latter becoming head of the EOC, said Russell.

Depending upon the severity, this declaration allows the EMO office to request and access resources from the provincial and federal governments.

While facing disasters might be scary, Russell encourages residents not to panic, be prepared, and have a plan to shelter in place for 72 hours.

“We are doing a lot (behind the scenes); we are safe in this community,” he added. “We feel we’re safe and we’re ready should anything happen.”

Residents should be responsible for their own protection and safety, including having on hand cash, medication, food and other supplies, echoed Montgomery. People should not shirk their responsibility since the onus is on them to be part of the solution.

Warriors’ Weninger to serve as goaltending coach for Team Canada U18 team Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Moose Jaw Warriors might not have had anyone named to Team Canada’s roster for the upcoming World U18 Hockey Championship, but there will still be connections to the local Western Hockey League team.

First off, is who selected the squad. Soonto-be former Moose Jaw Warriors general manager Alan Millar put together the roster of 25 players who will take the ice in Frisco and Plano, Texas beginning Apr. 26. It’s his first official team since being named the Hockey Canada director of player personnel last month.

Millar will be very familiar with one of the team’s coaches, too. Former Warriors bench boss Mike Stothers, who led the Tribe from 2011 through 2014 before taking over the Ontario Reign of the American Hockey League will serve as an assistant. Former San Jose Sharks assistant coach Dave Barr is the head coach and Gordie Dwyer, head coach of the QMJHL Shawinigan Cataractes in 2019-20, is the

other assistant.

The connections don’t stop with Millar and Stothers, as Warriors and Prairie Hockey Academy goaltending coach Matt Weninger will serve the same role with Team Canada.

“We are excited to announce the 25 players that have been selected to wear the Maple Leaf at the 2021 IIHF U18 World Championship. Despite a difficult year for our players and staff, we are confident this group will represent our country with pride while giving us a chance to compete for a gold medal in Texas,” said Millar in the press release announcing the team.

“We are also pleased to have Dave, Mike and Gordie as a part of our coaching staff, and to welcome a number of excellent support staff who bring unique skills to our team. We know the extensive experience of our coaching staff and the dedication of our support staff will greatly benefit our team at the world championship.

Former Warriors prospect Corson

The Moose Jaw Warriors will have several connections at the World U18 Hockey Championship beginning April 26 in Texas.

Ceulemans, who was selected 100th overall by the Warriors in the 2018 Bantam Draft but chose the NCAA route and is

now ranked as high as 14th for the upcoming NHL Draft, is one of the team’s defencemen.

Regina Pats 15-year-old sensation Connor Bedard was also named to the roster and as a result will play his final game in the WHL’s East Division Hub on April 9. He is currently the WHL scoring leader with eight goals and 19 points in 10 games.

Players will self-isolate at home beginning Apr. 12, travel to Frisco on Apr. 17 and enter another four-day quarantine before starting their pre-tournament camp on Apr. 21. Their lone pre-tournament game will be against Finland on Apr. 24.

Canada opens the tournament on Apr. 26 against Sweden and will play Latvia, Switzerland and Belarus in round robin action.

Miller Express to hold fundraising baseball draft Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Moose Jaw Miller Express are offering a way to become a little more invested in the Major League Baseball season while bolstering their coffers at the same time.

The Western Canadian Baseball League squad will be holding their first-ever Baseball Draft on Sunday, Apr. 11 at the Crushed Can Sports Bar and Nightclub, with the fundraising event helping the team out at a good time.

The Miller Express announced just last

week that for the second consecutive season there would be no WCBL baseball at Ross Wells Park.

The buy-in is $300 per team with a maximum of 20 teams. Any number of people are able to be part of a team -- for example, six individuals putting in $50 each -- but only four will be able to attend the physical draft due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions.

Each team will draft 12 position players, with only offensive stats counting to their overall total.

Points will accumulate throughout the season, with the top three totals at the end of the season winning cash prizes.

An MLB calcutta will also be held, featuring teams sold in groups of three and 10 groups to auction off. If a team in a group reaches the playoffs, payouts will increase, with 20 per cent eventually going to the group with the World Series champion.

Moose Jaw’s Helland signs with NAIA MidAmerica Nazerene Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

Moose Jaw baseball product Reece Helland is moving on up.

Helland, 20, officially signed with the MidAmerica Nazerene Pioneers on Mar. 26 and will be transferring to the powerhouse NAIA squad in Olathe, Tenn. this fall.

It’s the latest step in what has been a rapid rise through the ranks for the up-andcoming pitcher, who will play his second season this spring for Monterey Peninsula in the California Community College Athletic Association.

Just how rapid?

Helland only started pitching at the college level last spring, but was so dominant right off the hop that interest quickly built.

“MidAmerica Nazerene University reached out to my coach looking for a pitcher and he gave him my number, we’ve been talking for a couple months and they gave me an offer about a month and a half ago,” Helland said from Monterey, Cal. in describing how he ended up with his new school. “I told them I’d like to come down and visit the campus, so I spent a couple days down there to check it out and it was really nice… The coaching staff is really good, the team is really good, their facilities are awesome and it’s tough to say no to a school like that for sure.”

MidAmerica Nazerene isn’t your run-ofthe-mill NAIA school, either. They regularly contend for the Heart of America Athletic Conference championship, and went into play last week as the 25thranked NAIA team in the nation.

“I’d never heard of them before until they talked to me, but hearing about what kind of a program they have and getting to meet the guys and watching them play, it was really exciting and I’m looking forward to being part of their team,” Helland said.

Of course, there’s still some unfinished business to attend to.

Monterey Peninsula opens their season on Apr. 10 against Hartnell College, and Helland is expected to once again serve as the team’s closer.

He saw action in five games during the pandemic-shortened season in 2020, holding teams without a run in 10 ⅔ innings while allowing five hits, stirking out 15 and walking only three. That kind of performance this spring will only help what’s shaping up to be a solid team -- and one with high expectations for Helland.

“When I’m on the mound, I don’t think there’s any time where I don’t feel I can dominate hitters,” he said. “It’s a mindset that our pitching coach (Vince Herring)

Moose Jaw product Reece Helland signs with the MidAmerica Nazarene University Pioneers. MPC photo has locked into our minds right from the beginning. He’s probably one of the best coaches I’ve been around pitching-wise, and he’s really changed the mental side of the game and pitching, for sure.”

Helland was expecting a busy summer of baseball as well, having planned to return to the Moose Jaw Miller Express for their Western Canadian Baseball League season, but the cancellation of his hometown team’s campaign last week did away with that.

That’s not to say he won’t be on the

mound at Ross Wells Park. Helland plans to once again suit up in the Qu’Appelle Valley League with the Moose Jaw Padres, where he played last season once the WCBL campaign was shut down.

“It was really fun; I got to play with all my buddies from high school and got to play on the Padres with the older guys, kind of get a little more competitive men’s league ball to keep me in shape,” Helland said.

“It took me awhile to get back into it being off baseball for three months, but it was a lot of fun, that was the most important aspect. Just being around a team instead of just sitting at home all day by yourself.”

Still, not having a chance to play ultra-competitive summer baseball against top college players from all over Canada and the U.S. is disappointing.

“I was actually really looking forward to getting back up there and playing for the Millers,” Helland said. “It’s really nice playing for a hometown crowd, it’s a real treat for me, especially having friends and family there. It’s almost like a celebrity status, because you see people outside the park and they’re like ‘oh I know you, you play for the Millers’ and it’s like ‘yeah, that is me, it’s cool, nice you recognize me’... Moose Jaw is a really great place to play in the summer.”

Moose Jaw lacrosse standout Quinn Ingalls continues to shine with the Lander University Bearcats.

Ingalls, 20, currently sits fourth with nine goals and sixth in points with 11 for the NCAA Division II Peach Belt Conference squad as they roll through their second season of competition.

A sophomore midfielder, Ingalls recorded points in all five of their games during the month of March, beginning with his best effort of the season in a 13-12 loss to Barton College on Mar. Quinn Ingalls in action with the Lander University 1. Ingalls scored three times Bearcats against Alabama Huntsville on Mar. 30.

- including two goals in the Alicia Harrison photo fourth quarter as Lander rallied from an 11-7 deficit - and added an assist while recording five shots on goal, two ground balls and two caused turnovers. Barton would score the game-winning goal with seven seconds to play.

The result was far better in their match-up with Lees-McRae College on Mar. 6, where the Bearcats scored 11 goals in the second half to win 15-12. Ingalls had an assist and three ground balls in the victory.

Lander absorbed a rare lopsided loss in their game against Belmont Abbey two weeks later, falling 19-7. Ingalls scored Lander’s second goal of the game and had four shots, second highest on the team.

Ingalls had a single goal in their next contest against Alabama-Huntsville on Mar. 20, but it was a big one, coming with two minutes gone in the fourth quarter as Lander attempted to hold off a comeback. The Chargers would tie the game, but Lander scored in double overtime to take the 15-14 win.

Lander closed out the month with their most comfortable victory of the season a 14-4 victory over Shorter University. Ingalls scored the game’s opening goal 24 seconds in and added an insurance marker early in the second as the Bearcats took a 14-4 victory.

He’d finish with three shots and two more ground balls.

Lander has five games remaining in their regular season, including their next contest on Apr. 3 against Montevallo.

Warriors close out tough week with impressive win over Saskatoon Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express Hockey is a funny game sometimes.

One night you’re giving up eight goals to a team behind you in the standings, the next you shut out a team that hadn’t lost all season.

Or you’re pulled from a game after giving up bunches of goals early, but in your next outing stop every shot you face for your team’s first shutout of the season.

For the Moose Jaw Warriors and goaltender Boston Bilous, that was exactly how things turned out on Friday night in Western Hockey League East Division bubble action.

One night after falling 8-5 to the last-place Swift Current Broncos, the Warriors had 29 saves from Bilous on their way to a 4-0 victory over the first-place Saskatoon Blades at the Brandt Centre in Regina.

Night and day, and the product of renewed focus on head coach Mark O’Leary’s gameplan.

“Learsy is a pretty good coach, and he got us going, he told us everything we needed to reset for this game,” said forward Riley Krane, whose first goal of the season in the third period helped relieve some pres-

sure and ensure the win. “We just played our game; we didn’t worry about what Saskatoon was doing and just played how we are supposed to.”

O’Leary himself was happy to see the response -- especially in the face of what was a six-game losing skid heading into Friday night.

“Credit to our guys, they bought in after they were challenged pretty hard from [the night before],” said Warriors head coach Mark O’Leary. “They picked themselves up and dusted themselves off and had a real good night. That’s what we talk about, bad things are going to happen and it’s what you do next that matters.”

Krane, Denton Mateychuk and Lucas Brenton all scored their first goals of the season, with Brenton’s the first of his career. Cole Jordan had the other goal for Moose Jaw, who led 1-0 after the first and second periods.

Against the Broncos on Thursday night, Jagger Firkus and Calder Anderson had first period goals, but Swift Current took a 4-2 lead out of the frame.

Disaster strikes: Kelowna Rockets to shut down for 14 days after positive COVID tests For Moose Jaw Express

The worst-case scenario has become reality for the Western Hockey League.

The WHL announced last week that the Kelowna Rockets would be shutting down activities for a minimum of 14 days after two staff members and four players tested positive for COVID-19.

The shutdown will run through Wednesday, April 14.

The positive tests came after one positive was recorded in a team staff member on Mar. 30. Following that result, the WHL instructed the Rockets to enter the portion of the return-to-play protocol covering such an issue, and took the following actions: • Players and hockey staff were immediately isolated and tested; • B.C. Health Officials were contacted by

the WHL; • All close contacts were instructed to self-quarantine and monitor symptoms for 14 days; • The Kelowna Rockets will be assisting B.C. Health Officials with contact tracing.

As a result, 10 games the Rockets were to play through Apr. 15 have now been postponed, with no make-up dates announced.

In addition, the regular season game between Vancouver and Prince George was also postponed. Vancouver was the last team to play Kelowna before the outbreak, defeating the Rockets 6-0.

The WHL said in its press release it will continue to work in consultation with B.C. Health Authorities on when it is safe for the Kelowna Rockets to resume team activities.

Moose Jaw baseball organizations shut down For asMoose COVID cases rise Jaw Express Moose Jaw’s two youth baseball organizations have shut down for the time being, as COVID-19 cases begin to rise in the city and throughout the South Central zones.

Both groups announced their pauses on Facebook last Wednesday morning.

For Moose Jaw Little League, the decision will affect evaluations for house league teams, with the annual event now cancelled. Coaches and co-ordinators will meet on Apr. 18 to select teams, after which players and parents will be notified as to which team they’re on and who their coaches are.

Registration for the 2021 season season is still open, and you can see more about that at mjlittleleague.com/article/63057.

The Moose Jaw Minor Baseball Associa-

tion, meanwhile, has suspended all activities, including evaluations and practices.

The organization said on Facebook that the situation will continue to be monitored and the plan is to return to the field as soon as possible.

You can check their Facebook page for the latest updates and information.

The decision comes as Moose Jaw has been identified as a hot spot for the current COVID-19 outbreak in the province, prompting a warning from the provincial government and a plea from Mayor Fraser Tolmie to do all possible to prevent the spread of disease.

As of March 31, there were 121 active cases of COVID-19 in Moose Jaw’s South Central Zone 2, including 18 new cases.

Warriors goaltender Boston Bilous turns aside a shot in traffic against the Saskatoon Blades. Keith Hershmiller photo Ginnell scored to give the Warriors a 5-4 lead with just over a minute to play in the second, but the Broncos would tie the game before the period was out and add three more goals in the third to take their 8-5 win.

Brett Mirwald stopped 28 shots in taking the loss.

The Warriors opened the week against the Regina Pats on Mar. 30 and fell 3-2 in overtime. Layton Feist scored the game-winner with 27 seconds remaining

in the extra period.

The Pats took a 1-0 lead into the third, but Brayden Yager and Eric Alarie scored to give Moose Jaw a 2-1 lead with 9:28 to play. Regina would tie the game a minute after Alarie’s go ahead marker.

Mirwald made 38 stops in the losing effort.

The Warriors are now 5-6-1-0 on the season and fourth in the East Division. They play three more times this week: against Winnipeg on Wednesday, Apr. 7 (8 p.m.), Swift Current on Friday, Apr. 9 (8 p.m.) and Saturday, Apr. 10 against Saskatoon (8 p.m.).

Moose Jaw on “red-alert” with Sask. public health due to COVID-19 variant concerns Larissa Kurz

Chief medical health officer Dr. Saqib Shahab said that public health is keeping a close eye on the number of active cases and variants of concern being reported in Moose Jaw, and that the community should be on “redalert” despite no further restriction announcements.

Shahab and Premier Scott Moe addressed the rising case numbers during a press conference on March 30, where Moose Jaw residents were advised to be extremely diligent in following current public health orders to slow the spread of variants.

An earlier warning for Moose Jaw was issued by the Saskatchewan Health Authority on March 27, as the region has the highest increase in new cases in the province outside of Regina and Saskatoon in the past few days, with many of those new cases being variants of concern.

As of March 30, Moose Jaw reported a total of 95 variant cases, ten of which were included in the daily case numbers shared earlier that day.

“For a population that’s a quarter the size of Regina, [the case numbers] are very concerning,” said Shahab. “I think Moose Jaw is on red-alert and should be watched very closely.”

Both officials confirmed that while the province is not enacting any new public health orders specific to the city just yet, active discussions about further restrictions similar to those in Regina are taking place.

Premier Moe addressed concerns that the province is not being proactive enough in addressing the rising case numbers, stating that while Moose Jaw’s case numbers are a concern, they are not yet alarming enough to constitute a lockdown order.

“Moose Jaw is not at the stage that Regina was at [when the decision to lockdown occurred] at this time,” said Moe. Moose Jaw mayor Fraser Tolmie issued a press release earlier in the week asking Moose Jaw residents to consid-

er following the restrictions currently in place in Regina of their own volition, which both Moe and Shahab reiterated during the press conference.

Moe asked Moose Jaw residents to “go above and beyond” in following public health orders at this time, to slow the spread of cases in the community without the province’s intervention.

“People in Moose Jaw should really look at the Regina orders and guidelines and try to emulate that,” added Shahab. “But if the concern continues in Moose Jaw, further restrictions will have to be applied.”

Public health is tracking the case numbers in Moose Jaw very closely, said Shahab, and residents are encouraged to practice caution in regards to household contact for the next while.

COVID-19 vaccine eligibility expands to 58+ age range, appointments rescheduled Larissa Kurz

The Saskatchewan Health Authority is expanding the booking eligibility for COVID-19 vaccine appointments for residents, as well as rescheduling vaccine appointments due to the delivery delay for Moderna vaccines.

Beginning on April 1, residents aged 58 or older can book their appointments either online through the SHA website or by phoning the Vaccine Call Centre at 1 (833) SASKVAX (727-5829) between the hours of 8 a.m. and 11 p.m.

Individuals in this age group are eligible alongside residents aged 50 or older living in northern communities, Phase One healthcare workers and people with underly-

ing health conditions who are clinically vulnerable.

The Saskatchewan Health Authority has also rescheduled many already-booked vaccine appointments due to the delay in the next shipment of Moderna vaccines, which was announced last week.

The expected shipment of 21,300 doses of the Moderna vaccine has been delayed up to six days, due to an issue with the manufacturer.

Several clinics across the province have been affected, with many appointments rescheduled to the first and second week of April. The mass immunization clinic in Moose Jaw is not on the list of clinics affected by the

delay.

The majority of patients with already booked appointments will receive direct notification about rescheduling through text or email. For patients who do not receive notification of their appointment being rescheduled, they can confirm their date and time online or by calling the Vaccine Call Centre.

Additionally, appointment availability will also be limited to mirror current vaccine supplies.

Mayor urges residents to remain vigilant as COVID variant cases increase Moose Jaw Express

With an increase in so-called COVID-19 variants in Moose Jaw, Mayor Fraser Tolmie asks residents to remain vigilant during the pandemic.

Municipal officials have had discussions during the past several weeks with the Ministry of Health and the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) about the pandemic in Regina and Moose Jaw, while they have also been monitoring the recent increase in area cases, Tolmie said in a news release.

Those officials will continue to monitor the situation and the case numbers but recommend that Moose Javians continue to follow all public health guidelines to help decrease the virus’s spread, the mayor added.

The SHA issued a news release on March 27 encouraging area residents to take extra precautions due to the in-

creasing transmission of COVID-19 variants in the area.

The guidelines that the SHA suggested residents follow are: • Gather indoors with your immediate household only; • Residents over age 50 should keep their household bubbles small, to fewer than 10 people; • Travel and essential shopping should be limited; • Hungry residents should opt for take-out and curbside pick-up; • People with mild symptoms should stay home, while anyone in contact with someone with mild symptoms should also stay home; •It is recommended that people be tested if they have symptoms or were exposed to someone with symptoms; • Continue to practise physical distancing and handwash-

ing.

The City of Moose Jaw is working with the ministry and SHA to establish a drive-thru for vaccine delivery, but until that happens, residents are encouraged to book online at saskatchewan.ca/COVID19-vaccine or call 1-833-SASK-VAX (727-5829).

“We’re encouraged by what the SHA has relayed regarding the efficacy of the vaccine, and ask all residents to get vaccinated and ‘stick it to COVID,’” Tolmie said in the news release. “The more vigilant we are now, the sooner we’ll be able to come through the other side of this pandemic.”

Visit moosejaw.ca/coronavirus for more details on current SHA guidelines.

Sask. public health opening additional drive-through vaccine clinics over next week Larissa Kurz

Health Minister Paul Merriman announced today that the province will be opening eight more drive-through vaccine clinics in the next week, including one in Moose Jaw. During a press conference on April 1, Merriman said that an impending delivery of 45,000 AstraZeneca vaccines means the province will be reopening the drive-through clinic in Regina and adding a drive-through clinic in Swift Current to both be open on April 3.

Additional drive-through clinics in Prince Albert, Lloydminster and North Battleford will be operational beginning April 4, and a drive-through location at Prairieland Park in Saskatoon on April 5.

Further drive-through clinics will be arriving throughout next week, including a site in Yorkton and Weyburn on April 6. Moose Jaw will be the final drive-through location to open on April 9.

Public health will also be opening a handful of walk-in clinics to deliver the AstraZeneca vaccines, with those clinics opening in Swift Current on April 2, in Weyburn on April 3, and in Moose Jaw on April 7.

Both the drive-through and walk-in clinics will operate on a first-come-first-served basis, with residents aged 55 and older able to attend the sites for immunization.

Clinic hours will be announced closer to each clinic’s opening date, said a Saskatchewan Health Authority

press release.

The AstraZeneca vaccine is currently not recommended to individuals under the age of 55, and Merriman said public health will not be offering this vaccine to residents until age recommendations change.

“We’re very hopeful that age restriction will have movement,” said Merriman. “But right now, we have enough AstraZeneca vaccine to continue vaccinating people over the age of 55. The next crunch of AstraZeneca that comes in, we’ll have some decision points to make at that time.”

Stick it to covid: protecting our loved ones For Moose Jaw Express

From a current press release, the message the government wants to get out is that getting vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from COVID-19. That's the message from the latest ad in Saskatchewan's Stick It To COVID campaign.

The 30-second ad features Kyla from Swift Current, a mother of an immunocompromised child. In the ad, Kyla says that she will get vaccinated to protect her child.

"If you ever had to look a child in the eye that's relying on you to protect them, would you say yes, I will protect

you?" Kyla asks in the ad. "And that's essentially it, I will get the vaccine. I will protect you - because you can't protect yourself. Because I will do anything at all costs to protect my daughter."

The 30-second ad is the second to be released as part of the Stick It To COVID campaign, a campaign that features real Saskatchewan people telling their stories of what the COVID-19 vaccine means to them.

Vaccines are safe, effective and the best way to protect ourselves and our communities from the COVID-19 vi-

rus. When it's your turn, stick it to COVID and get vaccinated.

COVID-19 outbreaks declared at Moose Jaw fitness gym, school Larissa Kurz

The Saskatchewan Health Authority has issued public notice of two new COVID-19 outbreaks in public spaces in Moose Jaw, now included on the provincial list of outbreaks.

According to public health, an outbreak is confirmed when two or more individuals who are linked to a public setting or event test positive for COVID-19.

An outbreak was declared at Main Street Strength and Conditioning on March 30, joining a prior outbreak declared at Victoria Towers apartments on Feb. 20 that remains listed.

Public health has also confirmed that cases previously reported at Cornerstone Christian School are now linked, placing the school on the public outbreaks list. Five positive cases were reported on March 24, and classrooms were moved to online learning shortly afterward.

Positive COVID-19 cases at two other Moose Jaw schools were also reported on March 24, with Palliser Heights School reporting two cases and Central Collegiate reporting one case.

All Prairie South School Division schools in Moose Jaw have since moved to online learning.

Contact tracers will be in contact with anyone who may have been exposed in relation to the outbreak.

Public health reminds residents to continue to practice the recommended safety measures and contact HealthLine 811 if COVID-19 symptoms appear.

On the Front Porch

by Wanda Smith

Big Gulp One of my favorite springtime pastimes is to watch the runoff from snow melting. Actually, I think it is one of my most favorite of all things to do. When I was a kid, I remember ‘mucking’ in the yard, creating little rivers to drain the water away; sometimes I’d throw a leaf or a twig in the trickling streams and watch it flow downstream. Dad would get out the shovel and ‘ditch’ the water to revert it away from the driveway. Cold feet in rubber boots didn’t deter me from digging ditches. Those are great childhood memories.

Then on into my adulthood, as a school bus driver in the 1990’s, I saw the time-lapse of snow banks melting each day; meandering and gathering momentum as it snaked throughout the terrain. Once again, this was a thrill to watch. As my sweet peas have grown up, I’ve shared my love of watching water flow in the springtime with them.

I look forward to when that happens again; as you are well aware, our last five or six springs have been so dry there has been little to no runoff.

There is something that intrigues me about moving water. Whether it is the trickle of our little fish pond or the roar of Niagara Falls, it moves me. The sound. The movement. All kinds of emotions can be tied to it; bringing beauty or destruction. Healing is also linked to water. I’m reminded of the healing waters at the Temple Garden Mineral Spa or the Manitou Springs Resort and Spa where one can take their achy body to receive rejuvenation and restoration. We use water in our home for therapy as well. A good long shower does wonders when one is stressed or upset; as much as a relaxing bath relieves tension. Others appreciate a soak in the hot tub or swimming laps at the local aquatic center. Water is calming, satisfying and therapeutic.

The Word of God is full of references to water: “To know you (God) is to experience a flowing fountain, drinking in your life, springing up to satisfy.” (Psalm 36:9a) “We’ve passed through fire and flood, yet in the end you always bring us out better than we were before, saturated with your goodness.” (Psalm 66:12) “The the angel showed me the river of the water of life, flowing with water clear as crystal, continuously pouring out from the throne of God and of the Lamb.” (Revelation 22:1) Water is incredibly significant as we read through His Word.

“There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God.” Psalm 46:4. There is a river... the river of God that flows out of heaven to earth “into His holy dwelling places”, which is you and me. This river is bringing an unprecedented move of transformation to this region, province, nation and earth. Nothing can stop this river. No demon in hell. No government. No virus. NO THING can stop this river that is starting to flow. The river represents the life of God; His power, His anointing, His peace, and His presence. “Jesus answered, ‘If you drink from Jacob’s well you’ll be thirsty again and again, but if anyone drinks the living water I give them, they will never thirst again and will be forever satisfied!

For when you drink the water I give you it becomes a gushing fountain of the Holy Spirit, springing up and flooding you with endless life!” Take a big gulp of the living water and thirst no more!

OBITUARIES RUTH DORA BETHKE (née: Wemert) April 10th, 1928 - March 24th, 2021 Our Ruthie passed away holding her daughter’s hand in the early hours of Wednesday, March 24th, 2021 at the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital.

She was born in a “shack” in the Courval/Palmer district, the middle daughter of Joe Wemert and Anna (Wuschke) Wemert. There was a move to another small “house” north of where she was born, which came to be known as the West Place. In the 40’s, they moved to the Sonstelie homestead bordering the south of Old Wives Lake and north of Mossbank.

Ruth married Edwin Bethke on October 10th, 1953 and they resided on the farm with her parents. Carol was born in 1954 and Diana in 1957. In 1968 they bought their own farm, the “Fred Wuschke Place”, a few miles west from the lake. There she continued her life of very hard work as a farm wife with no running water. She milked the cows (always having a favorite milk cow), slopped the pigs, and raised chickens, ducks and turkeys. She was also involved in the butchering and sausage making, and sold cream and eggs so she would have her own money to buy things for “her girls”. She was also active with gardening, canning, baking (including the best buns ever!), driving truck, combining and handling any other farm task. Ruth faced many challenges in her long life but faced them with a positive attitude and her sunny smile.

She was predeceased by her husband, Edwin in 1978; daughter, Carol Mardell in 2005; aunt, Lena Wuschke, older sister, Trouty Nagel; younger sister, Lillian; brothers-in-law, Arnie Nagel and Allen Smith; and nephews, Alfred and Irwin Nagel. Ruth leaves to mourn: her youngest daughter, Diana (Don McPherson); grandchildren, Alicia and Jarett Mardell; son-in-law, Lawrence Mardell; Don’s children, Sheri (Sheldon) Tangan and Chad McPherson; was Gramma Ruth to: Zak, Matt and Alec Tangan, and Jordan and Jaicee McPherson; her “Nagel” nieces and nephews: Teddy, Ella (George) Petrisor, Shirley (Glen) Emmons, Alvin (Wendy), Elden, Thyra (Irwin - deceased) and Margaret (Alfred - deceased); her “Smith” nieces and nephews: Twyla (Wayne) Sirovyak, Lorna (Jeff) Barber, Debbie (Dale) Santa, Dwaine (Heather), and Joey (Sandy); as well as numerous great and greatgreat nieces and nephews.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, a Private Family Service will be held. Interment will take place next to her husband at St. Mathews Country Cemetery near the farm at Mossbank, SK with Pastor Marvin Seaborg officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations in Ruth’s name may be made to St. Mathews Cemetery c/o Jane Singbeil, PO Box 393, Mossbank, SK S0H 3G0.

JOAN MAVIS NICHOLSON Joan Mavis Nicholson, born in Central Butte, SK on August 17th, 1932 to Warren Fnevery “Sam” Cave and Kate (Wilkins) Cave, passed away on Friday, March 26th, 2021 in Herbert, Saskatchewan.

She was predeceased by her parents, Sam and Kit Cave; husband, Delwin “Shorty” Nicholson; siblings: Leonard (Flossie), Stanley “Buck” (Sylvia “Mick”), Betty (Jack), Daphne (Henry) and Donald “Pro” (Judy); daughter, Theresa Lynn; sons, Timothy John and Sheldon James; as well as special friend, Reid McCall.

Mavis is survived by her sons, Warren (Robyn) and Blair (Shannan McEwen); grandchildren: Cheryl Nicholson, Adria Austin (Bill Wilder), Colin (Angie) Nicholson, Bryce Nicholson, Glenn Nicholson, Sean Nicholson and Calvin Dustyhorn; great-grandchildren: Jordan Austin, Taylor Austin, Macy, Aubrey and Emery Nicholson; and one great-great grandchild on the way.

Mavis’ early married years were spent in Bridgeford on the farm, where she planted a large vegetable garden, helped with farm work and raised five children. In 1971 she and Shorty sold the farm in Bridgeford and moved to Victoria, BC where Shorty worked for BC Ferries.

Sadly, Shorty passed in 1974 at the age of 47 years.

So Mavis, ever the pragmatist, called her sister Daphne Johnson and said “Find a house for me in Central Butte, I’m coming home”. She bought the house on Butte Street sight unseen on Daphne’s word and lived there until 2017 when she moved into Golden Grove.

Tragedy struck in 1979 with the loss of her daughter Theresa in an automobile accident. Mavis bravely faced the future with three children still at home. She worked at both the IGA in Central Butte and at Regency Manor. She retired from Regency Manor in 1997. In her retirement, she loved bus trips and travelling with good friends Bob and Sandra Yonge, Irene, Elda, Gwen and Camilla. She lost her son Sheldon to an aneurysm in 2012, and son Tim to cancer in 2017. She was a strong woman and kept moving forward.

Mavis was the quiet strength and matriarch of the Nicholson family. Above all, she loved her family, friends and community. Central Butte was her home and she actively contributed and participated in all that the town had to offer. She was a curler, quilter, reader, card player, music lover, dancer and baker.

She served on the library board, was United Church secretary, convener at the Legion in Central Butte and was involved in many fundraisers and events.

Due to restrictions regarding Covid-19, a Private Family Service will be held to honour Mavis. Friends and Family are invited to view the service virtually on Tuesday, April 6th, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. by going to www. moosejawfuneralhome.com/webcast/.

The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations in Mavis’ name be made to either the Central Butte Seniors Centre, PO Box 509, Central Butte, SK S0H 0T0 or Iver Main Place, PO Box 550, Central Butte, SK. S0H 0T0. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. James Murdock, Funeral Director 306-693-4550 www.moosejawfuneralhome. com

COZAC It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Peter Cozac Sr. Peter passed away peacefully at the age of 85 with his family by his side in his home in Moose Jaw, SK. on March 26, 2021.

Peter was predeceased by his parents, Arthur and Grace Cozac and brother, George. Peter’s memory will forever be cherished by his loving family: daughter, Roberta; son, Peter Jr. and daughter, Wannetta (Les); grandchildren: Ashley (Nathan), Taylor (Lori) and Wiley; great grandchildren Isaiah, Jacob, Rowan and Russell; sisters: Anne, Kay, Mary (Harvey), Lillian and Joanne; brothers, Con (Elaine) and Sam (Caroll) as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Peter was born at Kayville, SK., on September 27, 1935. He grew up on his parents mixed farm near Kayville. On April 16, 1957 he began his career with the P.F.R.A. During his 42 year long career he spent a brief time at Excel Pasture, then Keywest before ending up at the coalfields at North Portal in April of 1964 where he would start his family. He remained at coalfields until he retired in the spring of 1999. Once retired, he purchased his own ranch north of Sintaluta, SK. in the Qu‘Appelle Valley, where he enjoyed doing a little farming. (Sold the ranch in 2012). He then began his official retirement in Fort Qu’Appelle later moving to Moose Jaw in 2019. Peter had many hobbies and loves in life. He competed in Rodeo’s, calf roping, starting in 1958. He enjoyed watching horse pulls, chariot and chuck wagon races (where he got a kick out of betting on them with quarters!), he loved live Rodeo!

Peter was also an avid fan of baseball (Blue Jays) and would watch them whenever he could. He was known to send cattle home early if the Jay’s made the playoffs. He took great pride in raising and showing his Simmental cattle and quarter horses and he never missed the yearly Regina Agribition. Individuals who interacted with Peter for the first or fifth time, felt they were in the presence of a genuine cowboy and a very knowledgeable cattleman. A hearty handshake, no nonsense manner and a genuine from the heart greeting which made people feel at ease. Peter loved his drives out into the country but most of all, he enjoyed spending time with his family. Whether it be watching his grandson Taylor play baseball or grandson Wiley playing hockey or sitting at a bonfire with his family telling stories from the past, his family came first.

Briercrest Library fundraiser filling people’s gardens with plants this spring Larissa Kurz

Briercrest Library and Community Centre are looking to raise a few dollars with a new spring fundraiser, which aims to brighten up the little village located southwest of Moose Jaw. In a partnership with Growing Smiles Fundraising, the Spring Planter Fundraiser is selling all kinds of planters, flowers, and gardening must-haves to help raise money for the library and centre.

“The Growing Smiles Fundraiser program do different ones here [in the winter] and so we thought maybe we would try doing a spring one and get people going with their gardens,” said librarian Sharon Duncan. “We’re selling hanging baskets and patio planters, garden starters, herbs, potting soil, all that good stuff. Whatever people are looking for this spring.”

Briercrest Library and Growing Smiles have a website set up to take online orders, which are due by April 15, as the plants are set to be delivered on May 6 — just in time for Mother’s Day, said Duncan.

Once the ordered plants arrive, Duncan said customers will be able to either pick up their plants from the library during arranged times, or have them delivered around the community. She also added that if there’s enough

interest from Moose Jaw residents, delivery may be an option there as well.

The fundraiser is entirely new to Briercrest Library, and aims to support both the library and the community centre it is located in. Both entities were unable to host their usual fundraising activities or rent out their spaces this year due to pandemic concerns, so Duncan said it is ex-

citing to be able to host this event.

“With us running on a shoestring budget, we thought we would try something a little less in-person, and these online fundraisers are a way of doing that,” said Duncan.

“And we like to support the community and do things that are fun for the community.”

All dollars raised will help with the operating costs of the centre, continued programming from the library, and a few upgrades planned to make the building more accessible to individuals with disabilities.

Following the spring-themed fundraiser, Duncan said the community centre is also planning to host a Beautify Briercrest contest later in the season, to encourage residents to put some time into their gardens.

“We thought it would be a fun opportunity for people to also get outside, get active and get gardening, and make Briercrest pretty in the process,” said Duncan.

For those interested in ordering from the Spring Plant Fundraiser, head online to briercrestlibrary.growingsmilesfundraising.com to place an order, or call Sharon Duncan at 1 (306) 631-7819. Payment is accepted in the form of cheque or credit card.

Prairie South School Division warning parents of potential extension on remote learning A letter released on April 1 from Prairie South School Division (PSSD) officials is warning parents that an extension on the current remote learning model may occur following Easter Break, as public health remains concerned about COVID-19 variants.

Prairie South schools in Moose Jaw and Caronport moved to remote learning on March 26, with the goal of returning to in-person learning on April 12.

Director of education Tony Baldwin and board chair Robert Bachmann are now warning parents that the return to classrooms will be contingent on active case concerns in Moose Jaw. “While we hope to be back to in-person learning as described, we believe it may be wise for parents to consider that an extension of remote learning may be required,” said the letter, shared to PSSD’s social media.

The warning follows announcements from several Regina school districts, who will be extending remote learning in their schools for two weeks after Easter Break due to variant case concerns in their areas.

The letter from PSSD cites a desire to keep parents informed and to provide advanced notice to parents so they can make arrangements for their children, but does not offer an official announcement of an extension as public health has not yet made the recommendation.

Holy Trinity Catholic School Division also released a let-

Larissa Kurz

to extend remote learning, and the “intent remains to return to school on April 12 for face-to-face instruction.”
