“Even if I don’t finish, we need others to continue. It’s got to keep going without me.” —Terry Fox.
Terry Fox began the Marathon of Hope in 1980, but he was never able to finish that inspiring journey. But over the weekend, the community of Neepawa, along with the rest of the nation, rallied together with a singular purpose, to ‘finish it’.
Well over 100 participants assembled at the NACI track on Sunday, Sept, 14, to take part in the annual Terry Fox Run. Among the crowd were cancer survivors, identified by their red shirts. Those in red shirts are also given balloons to release just before the start of the event, to signify their overcoming their battles with cancer.
As for the setup for the Terry Fox Run itself, it involved runners, walkers, and bikers beginning their 5k journey at the running track. After one complete lap around the track, they then travelled to the Dairy Queen checkpoint, before returning to the track to complete the day.
And while the local weather on the day was a bit overcast and dreary, the spirit of the people involved was luminescent.

Each and every year, as part of the Terry Fox Run, cancer survivors wear red shirts and release balloons into the air. These gestures signify and celebrate their victory over cancer.
The second annual Neepawa’s Got Pride provided a warm welcome to all in attendance on Sunday, Sept. 14. Attendees enjoyed a selection of informational booths, booths from a pair of area vendors, music and performances, button making, kid’s story time and more. Some activities were moved indoors due to the weather, but conversation, laughter and cheers abounded.
Above: Some of the less camera-shy members of the attending crowd gathered for a group photo outdoors. One of those individuals was Logan Oxenham, MLA for Kirkfield Park (seen in the orange shirt), who was this year’s special guest speaker.
Right: A representative of the Brookdale United Church was on the scene with an informational booth. The church is an Affirming Ministry, and received its certificate for completing the Affirming Ministry education program on June 1, 2025.

For a time on Friday Neepawa’s main arteries took on the appearance of a Walt Disney fantasy.
About 50 “freshies” followed by 100 first years and seniors provided the illusion in a full dress costume parade of Neepawa Collegiate students.
It was initiation day and the characters, some very cleverly enacted, ranged from hoboes to swankly dressed dandies with a good smattering of animals, goons and apparitions composed of strange combinations.
Some hinted at the future by parading as Santa Claus.

By Chad Carpenter Tundra
When the news came out that Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA had been assassinated, I asked my staff, who is this person? I honestly had never consciously ever heard of him. My staff and others certainly had heard of him. Apparently millions of others had heard of him and watched some of his videos and programs. I have now watched one five minute video of one of his campus debates where he invited students to come up to a microphone and ask questions or state views on a variety of topics. It was a long way from the way I was taught to debate.
When I was in university in the 1960s, I, and many of my colleagues participated in debates at the faculty level and university level. I also participated at the university level and was fortunate enough to be on the Western Canadian championship debating team.
Debating was taught and encouraged as well as being quite common. It was part of the university curriculum. It was conducted in the Oxford style debate format which involves a debate on a predetermined statement – also called a “motion” – from two opposing perspectives. The two sides either argue “for” or “against” the motion within a formalized structure.
In debate competitions, you rarely knew the topic much ahead of the debate and you were assigned which side, positive or negative, a short time ahead of the debate. It was great fun, a debater learned how to speak effectively, perhaps even very well in front of a crowd. The debate expanded your mind and your abilities. They were conducted very civilly. The positive side spoke first, then the negative, then the positive and then the negative. In the rebuttal, a shorter presentation is given by one
Rita Friesen Homebodies
“ Civilized debate is essential and must never be squashed by violence. “
”
Ask not what your country can do for you– ask what you can do for your country”.
person from each side.
Sadly, there isn’t much debate these days, having been long replaced by shouting, nastiness and a lot of untruths.
So when I heard that Charle Kirk was a debater, I was intrigued that debates actually still happened. From what I saw, Kirk was quite controversial and with his style, he easily overpowered some students. I was horrified that he was assassinated in the midst of a speech. I was more horrified that some people went very public in their approval of his death. It was also a very public death, on live TV and in front of a crowd reported to be about 3,000 people. Early reports (as of Sunday, Sept 14) are that the alleged assassin was very politically motivated to pull the trigger.
I was also disturbed that some people tried to say that political assassination was a new thing in the United States. That myth was quickly laid aside by Senator Bernie Sanders, an independent senator from Vermont. I would recommend that people look up Sanders’ speech. It’s the best five minutes you will invest in the study
of political violence.
Free speech is at stake in North America. People need to behave civilly and listen to all opinions. We need to be able to disagree without being disagreeable.
In today’s world, with all the access to information we have, we should not be short of knowledge, logic and the ability to make decisions. What we must be on guard against is the trend to shout down other peoples’ opinions by smothering them in insults and strident, shouted conversation. Some conversations today resemble the depiction of lynch mobs in an old western movie.
May Charlie Kirk’s death serve notice that civilized debate is essential and must never be squashed by violence. Kirk’s style fell well short of the way debate and discussion should be conducted, but he should not have been assassinated.
Disclaimer: The views expressed in this column are the writer’s personal views and are not to be taken as being the view of the newspaper staff.
The sentence, the challenge, the marching order, was part of J.F. Kennedy’s inaugural speech, delivered January 20, 1961. I remember it. It was/is a call to public service and civic action, urging citizens to contribute to the greater good rather than focusing on personal gain. We have become a generation wanting instant gratification, and have a muddy definition of what are our rights. Just with casual observation one can note the decline in service clubs; our area, thankfully has several that work well and hard for the betterment of our community. We see a marked decline in mainline church attendance, and there is a shortage of individuals that are willing to serve on boards, committees, councils, and as elected officials. I can’t say that I blame anyone for not throwing their hat in the ring. Public scrutiny is invasive, slander is rife, and service is challenging. One person’s opinion does make a difference, if it is respectfully heard. And we know that candidates running for a public office have great ideas, firm resolve, and make promises that cannot ever be filled. We need a change in mindset. Nelson Mandela is noted for “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”, “It always seems impossible until it is done”, and “Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity. It is an act of justice.” Man, if that doesn’t speak to the situation in our world today! In many countries education is not a normal, it is for the select few, and often, not for women. Education occurs outside of the classroom as well, thankfully! Listening to another, again, with respect, can open one’s heart and mind to a new idea. Having the courage to speak carefully about contentious points, showing compassion to the marginalised, and simply being a decent human being can educate others about the freedom of choice. With the disproportionate distribution of wealth in this world, and it’s horribly disproportionate – 1.1 per cent of the total population own 45.8 per cent of the total world wealth, and according to an OXFAM 2021 report, the ten richest men in the world own more than the combined wealth of 3.1 billion people, almost half of the entire population. AND their combined wealth doubled during the pandemic…Overcoming poverty is not an act of charity, it is an act of justice. May it be so. Churchill was well spoken, often quoted. “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” Almost back to the first quote by Kennedy. “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on”, and that was before the internet and social media!!! “Truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.” I think that’s the one I’m waiting for, truth. Truth in personal lives, in public lives, in education and in faith. While waiting, I will not ask what my country can do for me…
One question, asked 30 years ago, radically changed my life. I was sitting in my doctor’s office. For the previous four months, I had felt mentally and emotionally drained; no energy, no motivation, just going through the motions at work. Stress was taking its toll. I believed I was headed for my second breakdown in five years; and I didn’t want that.
So I booked an appointment with my doctor. I told her receptionist that I thought I might be depressed and might need some medication to counteract it. Now, I was sitting in a consultation room, wondering what advice, if any, I would receive.
I heard a knock on the door, it opened, my doctor stood in the doorway, looked at me and said: “Mr. Strohschein, are you depressed?” I said: “Yes, I am.” She entered the room, closed the door, sat down at her desk and said: “Okay. Let’s talk about it.” We did and thus began several weeks of medication and
counseling sessions that helped restore my emotional equilibrium and find ways to balance work and family demands. I have battled various forms of depression since I was 12 years old. It has never been so severe that I thought of ending my life. But there have been several times when I have felt like walking away from everything I was doing and every relationship I was in, moving to a far country where no one would think to look for me and trying to get a fresh start there. But I didn’t—because I knew that I could never run away from myself; and that if I wanted to find the healing I needed, I first had to let God heal me.
My journey through these emotional challenges
has taught me many valuable lessons.
Lesson One—listen to the messages your body sends you. It will tell you if you are too tired, if you need to slow down, and if you need to give up give some activities in order to have more time and energy for those that remain. By listening to those messages when they first appear, you may save yourself from a major nervous breakdown that will leave permanent scars in your life and the lives of those you love.
Lesson Two—good mental health is built on the foundation of good physical health. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the doctors who have cared for me when I have been ill. They have not always told me what I wanted to hear. But they
taught me the importance of good self-care; and I will always be grateful for their guidance.
Lesson Three—there is no shame in seeking help from qualified counselors. They are trained to help us navigate the complex world of mental and emotional illness. They are skilled in identifying problems and proposing solutions. Don’t expect them to have some magic words that will automatically fix you and your problems. You have to do the work. But they will walk the path of healing with you and make sure that you do not stumble along the way. If you need their help, ask for it. Help is available.
Lesson Four—cling to your faith. It will see you through. God will not abandon you. He will not leave you to heal alone. He will be ready to help the moment you call on him; and he will give you the hope, send you the help and give you the healing you need; often in unexpected ways and from unexpected sources.

In response to “Conservatives should stop trying to survive on outrage,” Sept. 12 issue.
It’s horrifying that people still see conservatives as anti-free speech. Charlie Kirk was murdered for his Christian and conservative views. He encouraged everyone to debate openly, to actively engage. It’s true, some people are loud and brash—on both sides of the political spectrum. Different personalities are good. But truth is not subjective.
Truth: Since the Liberals took office in 2016, the bureaucracy has ballooned to 374,500. Of those, 39 per cent earn more than $100K a year. The federal debt has doubled to $1.273 trillion, growing at a rate of $109 million a day. That, and the absurd carbon tax, are why grocery prices have tripled and social programs are suffering.
Truth: the Liberal government has no business telling us how to raise our children, what kind of car to drive, or what vaccines we must take to keep from losing our jobs. Truth: the media are paid to censor/report as Liberals tell them (Ex: CBC gets about $1.3 billion/year, or 70 per cent of its total budget; it IS propaganda).
Truth: In 2018, the Liberals required faith-based organizations to promote abortion to be eligible for summer student funding. Truth: former PM Trudeau asked, “How long are we going to tolerate these people?” (regarding those who declined the jab)—that is NOT respect for freedom.
Truth: God created us male and female (see amazing creation videos by Kent Hovind). Yet Liberals sadly encourage children as young as four to reject biology, spurn science, take sterilizing drugs and later lop off body parts.
Truth: Never confuse forced with voluntary giving. If government forces ideology on citizens, it’s never good. Truth: infrastructure, jobs, schools/hospitals and housing must keep pace with immigration, and Libs have ignored this.
Truth: Outrage is understandable when a child is abused, money is stolen, religious rights are trampled, lies are constantly peddled by the government, and a corrupt legal system severely restricts our ability to fight back (our Charter has been weaponized).

Liberals tell us, “Love Carney” and “believe that MAGA is very bad!” No. Extensive research must supplant mindless obedience, but if that’s too onerous, talk to someone who has! Liberals have lied in scandal after scandal (SNC Lavalin, GC Strategies, Green Slush Fund, Emergency Measures Act illegal use, and dozens more), embezzled billions, and clearly proven the foolishness of their “elbows up” slogan. Be careful to whom you kneel.

Cookies are so easy to pack in lunches and eat on the go. Some bakers find them difficult to make. Here are some tips to help with successful batches of cookies. Throw on an apron and join me!
Location in the oven affects baking. I bake one sheet of cookies at a time. The oven rack should be located in the middle of your oven from top to bottom and the cookie sheet located in the middle from side to side. Avoid dark baking sheets as they bake faster on the bottom and usually end up burning your cookies. Use shiny heavy gauge cookie sheets. They cost more but are worth the money. Just remember to keep them nice and shiny! Skip the cheap cookie sheets or use them for cooking frozen French fries.
Do not over grease the cookie sheets or grease them when the recipe does not call for it. When the sheets are over greased this can cause cookies to spread excessively or brown too quickly around the edges. You can use parchment paper instead of greasing. If your butter/margarine is too soft it can cause the cookies to spread too much. Softened butter is best, not melted butter. If using margarine use only the hard margarine, not the soft spreadable. If the butter is too cold, it won’t blend with the other ingredients and you will end up with a lumpy batter and not so great cookies.
Making the dough is pretty consistent with all cookies. Mix your dry ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. In a large bowl, cream your butter and sugars, then stir in your eggs and vanilla. To this mixture, slowly add the dry ingredients until well mixed. If you have the time chill your dough for half an hour or more. Putting your dough in the fridge allows the fats to cool. As a result, the cookies will expand more slowly, holding onto their shape and texture. If you skip the chilling step, you may wind up with sad flat cookies instead of lovely chewy cookies. I often make my cookie dough the day before.
These cookies are soft, chewy, and easy to add your favourite extras. Just add one cup raisins or nuts, or chocolate chips when you mix in the oats.
Oatmeal cookies
1 cup butter, room temperature
3/4 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
3 cups quick oats
Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until creamy before adding in the eggs and vanilla and mixing well. Mix the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon together in a small bowl and add to the creamed mixture in small batches until it is all just combined, then add in the oats and your favourite extras as desired. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonful’s onto ungreased or parchment paper covered cookie sheets. Bake or 9-11 minutes until lightly golden brown. Cool one minute on cookie sheets; remove to wire rack. Cool completely. Store tightly covered. Carrot oatmeal cookies are perfect for a lunch box, midday snack or dessert.
1 cup flour
Carrot oatmeal cookies
1 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup carrots, shredded
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup coconut or nuts of choice (optional) 3/4 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 350F° and lightly grease (or line with parchment) two baking sheets, light-colored preferred. In a medium bowl, combine the flou, baking soda, ground cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar. Add egg and vanilla and mix well. Stir the carrots in. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until the dough has formed. Gently stir in the oatmeal, nuts and raisins. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for at least two hours. Drop by rounded tablespoons two inches apart onto baking sheets. You can fltten slightly. Bake until the cookies have fimed up, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet for a few minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Enjoy!

Over the years, almost a quarter of a million dollars has been raised directly by Neepawa’s efforts to support The Terry Fox Foundation. Local run coordinator Dr. Kelly Krzyzaniak said the amount of support that Neepawa gives to this cause each and every year is remarkable
“We raised $13,000 [in 2024], and we’re optimistic about this year’s results,” noted Dr. Krzyzaniak.
“For a community our size, the amount of support that is generated every year is amazing.”
Dr. Krzyzaniak also expressed tremendous pride in the large number of local health care workers and supporters of the health care team, that participate in the event. She said they see first hand, the effects of a cancer diagnosis on people and their loved ones.
“We deal with it at the hospital. All the time, we see it. We see the people that recover, and unfortu -
nately, those that do not, but we remember them.”
The theme for this year’s Terry Fox Run was ‘Finish it.’, marking our nations ongoing commitment to the Marathon of Hope, and Terry’s dream of finding a cure for cancer.
Diagnosed with rare bone cancer at 18, after having a leg amputated, Fox set out to run the Marathon of Hope – running a marathon a day across the nation to raise funds for cancer research.
In April 1980, he ran nearly 42 kilometres a day for 143 days starting from St. John’s, Nfld. The run ended in Ontario, after the cancer spread to his lungs. He died nine months later in June 1981 at the age of 22.
Terry Fox was never able to complete his crosscountry marathon, but with every year of support, we have chosen to finish it.
Over 100 people participated in the 2025 edition of the Terry Fox Run, at the NACI eld on Sunday, Sept. 14. Along with serving as a fundraiser for cancer research, it also serves as a celebration of cancer survivors, who are identified by their ed shirts.

With the new Manitoba Junior Hockey League season on the horizon, the Neepawa Titans will be yet again looking to push the needle and excel to new heights after last year’s dance with the post-season.
In the 2024-2025 season, the Titans rewrote their own history books after winning 32 games and accumulating 69 points, the most the hockey club has achieved in almost 15 years. The team also managed to punch its way into the MJHL playoffs as they played the Norman Blizzard, who would defeat the Titans in five games. The Titans managed to push the Blizzard, as four of those five games were decided by one point.
Welcome back to Neepawa
This year, the Neepawa Titans squad will see a mix of new faces and old favourites. A total of 15 players who spent time with the club last year are back to make an impact and help grow the club. Be on the lookout for Captain and Neepawa-born player Cooper Kasprick, who has been with the team since 2022, to lead the way and try to set a new career high in scoring. Another returning player to watch is Forward Keenan Skrupa, who led the Titans in preseason points. Also, look for Gladstone, Manitoba, product DJ Meloney to give a boost to this team’s blue-line.
One last hurrah for seven players
The MJHL allows teams to roster/dress a maximum of eight twenty-year-olds. This year’s graduating class of Titans includes newcomer Ty Kirk (05), Logan Paquette (05), Cooper Kasprick (05), Kyle Weisgarber, Dawson
Andries, Zac Burleigh (05), and Keenan Skrupa (05).
Meet the new guys
With players graduating, it means that plenty of new faces are vying to become household names for the Neepawa Titans. Here is a look at the new Titans coming to play this season.

Signed a letter of intent after playing with the AAA Brandon Wheat kings, where he had 12 goals and 16 assists to go along with 72 penalty minutes.
The Titans signed Sebastian Hetterich to a letter of intent in 2024. The Naperville, Illinois, product attended the Titans’ spring development camp and main camp, where he showed very well. Last year, Hetterich was a point-pergame player with Team Illinois U18 AAA.
Grayson Slaney was a round 2 pick in the 2024 MJHL Draft for the Titans. Last year in the Manitoba Under-18 Hockey League (MU18HL), Slaney played with the Eastman Selects, where he got 23 goals and 17 assists (40 points) in 37 games.
Finn Brennan can be considered a walk-on prospect after impressing the Titans’ brass at training Camp. The Naperville, Illinois, product played for Team Maryland AAA U18 last year, where he had 20 goals and 12 assists in 39 games.
Ty Kirk, a Manitobaborn prospect, is looking to impress after coming back to his home province. Kirk was traded to the Titans from the Sioux Lookout Bombers of the Superior International Junior Hockey League.
Ryan Harris joins the team after signing a letter of intent during the offseason. The 19-year-old from Burnaby, B.C. played in the Vancouver Island Junior

Jack Hefferan is another new addition to the Titans. Last year, Hefferan played for the Columbia Valley Rockies of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League. Hefferan had 2 goals and 16 assists along with 104 penalty minutes in 35 regular-season games.
Goaltender Zach Burleigh joins the club after being acquired from the French River Rapids of the NOJHL.
Pearson is excited about this year’s roster and said one player who has stood out during the pre-season is newcomer Finn Brennan.
“He’s a young fellow who played U-18 hockey last year in Maryland, and played for former Neepawa Native, Pete Leboutillier. When Brennan came in, he wasn’t guaranteed anything more than a tryout, and he won himself a spot here with the club after having a good pre-season with us.”
depth the team has amassed on offence and defence.
“Maybe we didn’t score as much as we would have wanted to, but part of that was the lineups we went with. We went with a really young lineup during the last two nights of the preseason to give some guys a last opportunity to make the hockey club,” he said.
“They worked hard and stuck together throughout the pre-season. Seeing some of the different altercations (during the games) and seeing guys stand up for each other is something I think is very important going forward.”
Keenan Skrupa led the Pre-season points category with five (2 goals, 3 assists), while Logan Paquette had four (1 goal, three assists), and Cooper Kasprick had three (two goals, one assist).
Home-opener and the season ahead
The Titans appear to be rolling with Alex Myers and Zach Burleigh, while the team is bringing in LOI signee Matthew Mitcha, who played for the MU18HL’s Brandon Wheat Kings with a .915 save percentage.
The Neepawa Titans kicked off training camp and the pre-season at their new home away from home - the J&G Holmes Arena in Brandon.
The Titans would play a total of six pre-season games, two against the Virden Oil Capitals, two against the Dauphin Kings, and two against the Portage Terriers. The Titans finished the pre-season with a 2-4 record, scoring 19 goals, while being scored on 32 times. GM Ken Pearson said one thing the GM for the 2025/2026 season is the
Now that the pre-season is in the rear-view mirror, the Titans are hungry to start the MJHL pre-season. The season kicks off Saturday, Sept. 20, when the Portage Terriers come to the Yellowhead Centre to take on the Titans. The game starts at a special start time of 6:30 p.m.
Other important dates include Nov. 2, when the Turnbull Cup Champions, the Northern Manitoba Blizzard, make their way to town. The newly named Winnipeg Monarchs will first visit the Titans on Nov. 21, and the Titans play their final game of 2025 on Dec. 20, when the Blizzard again comes to town. Neepawa’s first home game of the new year comes on Jan. 14, when the Swan Valley Stampeders come to visit. The Titans’ two final home games are played on Mar. 13 and 14 against the Waywayseecappo Wolverines and the Swan Valley Stampeders.

Neepawa Figure Skating Club
Are you new to Canada? Are you interested in learning one of Canada’s favourite pastimes for our long winters? Canadians love to skate, both indoors and outdoors in the winter time! Neepawa is very lucky to have a wonderful facility, The Yellowhead Centre, where you can learn to skate! The Neepawa Figure Skating Club organizes and runs a program called CanSkate.
The CanSkate program is Canada’s best and longest running Learn-to-Skate program. The well-organized and extensive curriculum as laid out by Skate Canada introduces a healthy, lifelong sport to kids at any age whether you want to start at three or 12 or whether you just want to just learn to skate or improve your skating skills. The curriculum for this program is based on Sport Canada’s long term athlete development (LTAD) principles and was designed with all ice sports in mind.

down and getting up, doing slalom around pylons or learning proper forward and backward crossovers. You learn how to be in control on your skates by skating backward, gliding on one or two feet and how
to stop a variety of different ways. You also learn how to be agile on your feet! Whether you are doing a quick turn, a step turn, turning forward or backward or glide turns, any type of turn is vital in ice sports particularly hockey!
If you are interested in giving CanSkate a try,
come on out for a free session on Friday, Oct. 10 from 5:45-6:30 at the Yellowhead Centre. If you already know you want to join our CanSkate program, head over to the Neepawa Figure Skating Club’s Facebook page and register your child today! Deadline to register is Oct. 28.

CanSkate teaches the foundation skills that all types of skaters need to be successful in their sport. Whether you want to be a hockey player, a ringette star, a speed skater, a figure skater or you just want to learn to skate, the CanSkate program teaches the basic skills one needs to learn in order to be able to skate. You learn to balance on your skates by falling

Ramona Gail Sparrow
With sadness and loving memories, we announce the peaceful passing of Ramona Gail Sparrow on Saturday, August 9, 2025 at the Minnedosa Personal Care Home.
Ramona was born to Clare Borden Freeborn and Diana Hazel Roden on July 18,1939 on the family farm near Firdale, Manitoba. Ramona took her elementary schooling at Montrose School at Harete, MB. She then took her high school and business courses at St. Michael’s Academy in Brandon. After graduation, Ramona moved to MacGregor, MB to work as a legal secretary for a year. In 1958 she moved back to Brandon where she worked as a secretary. On June 28, 1958, Ramona married Cecil Cameron Sparrow of Carberry. Over the years they lived in Brandon, Red Deer Alberta, Winnipeg and Neepawa. Ramona and Cecil raised a son Gerald (1961) and daughter Trinda (1964). Over the years, Ramona and Cecil travelled to Hawaii, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Quebec. They also visited Disney World Florida, Disneyland California as well as Branson Missouri, Las Vegas, Cuba and parts of Europe.
Ramona’s main interest was her family. She loved being a wife, mother, grandmother. She was extremely proud to be a great grandmother and was always available for sleep overs. She never tired of spending time with her family and friends and could just “visit” for hours. Quite often she was a “sounding board” for some of her grandchildren. She tried to not give advice or guidance but there were times when she just couldn't “zip up” (her words).
Ramona and Cecil moved to Minnedosa in 2015, when Cecil’s journey with Alzheimers became too much for Ramona to handle alone.
Ramona had a great love for sports. She would watch as much curling, baseball and hockey as was available on the TV.
In April of 2025, Ramona moved to the Minnedosa Personal Care Home where she immediately struck up a very close friendship with Noela Fleury. For her remaining months in the care home, they would often be found together.
Ramona was pre-deceased by two baby daughters; Teri Lynn and Sheri Lee; Her husband Cecil Cameron (Sept. 2020), parents Clare and Diana Freeborn and inlaws Fred and Nellie Sparrow. Left to mourn Ramona’s passing are son Gerald Cameron and wife Karen; Their children; Jennifer (Dave) McLean, Falynn Sparrow (Pat Dagg), Morgan (Kurt) Ritchie. Daughter Trinda Dee and husband Darren Collister and her children; Jarrett (Jackie), Brooklyn (Taylor) Lapka and Bryce Eakins Collister. There are 10 great-grandchildren: Randi, Alexis, Mackenzie, Hailey, Maddison, Jaxson, Mason, Xavier, Amiri and Julia. Also left to mourn is one sister Beverly (George) Ranson, in-laws Jim, Nelson (Phyliss), Leslie (Donna) and Lorne (Debbie) Sparrow. There are also many, many nieces and nephews and their families.
A graveside service was held at the Carberry Plains Cemetery, Friday, September 5 at 3:00 p.m. with Rita Friesen officiating. Donations in memory of Ramona may be made to the Alzheimers Society of Manitoba. White’s Funeral Home of Minnedosa in care of arrangements. Thank You
We would thank to thank our friends and family for their kindness, cards, flowers and food after the passing of our husband, father and grandfather, Roy Anderson.
Thank you to Keith Lambert for the meaningful service and to Dayna Yurkiw for her special eulogy.
Thank you to the Gladstone United Church Women for the lovely lunch. Thank you to the pallbearers. Thank you to Clarke's Funeral Home for their services and care.
Rose, Mark, Clint, Connie MacKenzie and Kyle Anderson.
Roy Anderson
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Roy Anderson with his family by his side on Sunday, August 17, 2025. He lived a long and full life of 92 years. He was born June 11, 1933 at home in Steele Bridge district (5 miles east of Gladstone) to Greta and Peter Anderson.
Roy is survived by his loving wife Rose of 62 years, 2 sons; Mark, Clint and his wife Connie, 2 grandchildren Mackenzie & Kyle, sister-in-law Dena Beaulieu and many nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by 3 brothers and their wives; Gordon & Vi, Arnold & Grace, Harvey & Vi, one sister Lorraine and husband Gordon Robershaw, and brotherin-law Chris Beauileu.
Roy quit school at the age of 14 at Christmas time when he was in Grade 8 at Woodside School. He moved to Winnipeg and worked welding on snow planes at Princess Auto. Then back to the farm to help his father and brothers on the farm. He also hauled gravel on the #50 highway. In the winters he hauled lumber and pulp near Mafeking Manitoba and also in Northern Ontario near Beardmore.
Roy spent many years clearing bush for farmers in the winter. In summer he was building road with his bulldozer & cat and scraper. He worked on the Winnipeg floodway, Minnedosa Dam, Shelmouth dam and the Z dike in the 1997 flood of the century.
In 1968 he started Roy Anderson Supply and sold Allis Chalmers Tractors, Universal tractors and in 1968 he sold Farmhand Farm Implements after his brothers Gordons death. He also started farming and had a herd of Maine-Anjou Cattle. In the early 1970s he imported 2 full blooded heifers from France. Roy started Anderson Sand & Gravel around 1971. We were in the custom cattle hauling for 3 years and custom grain hauling for 21 years. In 2014 Roy started Roy Anderson Rentals renting out storage vans and reefer containers.
Roy loved music and played guitar and sang with his family & friends. Roy had many trips to California and Shelton, Washington to visit his sister, brother-in-law and family. He also traveled to Florida and Hawaii. He enjoyed many visits with family and friends, reminiscing about old times and discussing current events.
Roy loved his family very much.
Special thank you to the doctors, nurses and staff at the Portage Hospital, the home care workers and home care nurses who helped him be at home as long as possible, where he wanted to be.
A Celebration of life was held on Friday, August 22, 2025, at the Co-op Community Hall in Gladstone, MB. Interment took place at the Gladstone Cemetery.

Public notice is hereby given that the 2026 Preliminary Assessment Roll for the Town of Carberry has been delivered to the Town Office at 44 Main Street, Carberry, Manitoba and is open for public inspection during regular business hours, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm (closed 12-1), Monday to Friday. Applications for revision may be made in accordance with sections 42 and 43 of The Assessment Act:
With recent events, I’ve been thinking a lot about the rise of these “career activists” we see on both the right and the left. You know the type: they build a brand, gather followers, run organizations, host podcasts, sell books. Their whole career is built around stirring people up.
Here’s the problem: when your income depends on outrage, you have to keep people outraged. You need to simplify, exaggerate, and sometimes even distort, because that’s what gets clicks, donations, and attention. It’s a business model built on division.
The more divided we are, the more these careers thrive. But what does that mean for the rest of us? It means we get a society that’s more suspicious, more angry, less willing to listen. It means young people are recruited into rigid ideologies before they’ve had the chance to
think deeply for themselves. It means truth gets replaced with slogans, and personalities matter more than real solutions.
I can’t help but feel that these careers are chipping away at the foundations of our democracy. If all we ever hear are the loudest voices telling us the other side is evil, how can we ever come together to solve the real problems we face?
And while it may feel like this is mostly an American problem, Canada isn’t immune. We see the same patterns creeping in here too, activists and social media personalities building platforms on outrage, feeding division, and pushing us further apart instead of pulling us together.
What worries me most is how quickly we stop using our critical thinking skills. Too often, we accept a headline, a meme, or a clip as truth
without pausing to question it. And I’ll admit, I can fall for it too. I’ll catch myself reacting, then have to stop, step back, and remind myself to think it through and do some real research.
We’re often told to be mad at the big business tycoons for making money off the backs of everyday people. But we forget that these activists and influencers make money off us too. Off our reactions, our likes, our clicks, and our shares. Every time we take the bait, we’re fuelling the very system that keeps us divided.
For me, I want to be part of something different. I want to choose dialogue over division, truth over spin, and actual solutions over personality-driven politics. We deserve better than careers built on keeping us angry.
APPLICATION FOR REVISION
42(1) A person in whose name property has been assessed, a mortgagee in possession of property under Section 114(1) of The Real Property Act, an occupier of premises who is required under the terms of a lease to pay the taxes on the property, or the assessor may make application for the revision of an assessment roll with respect to;

All sorts of wildlife can be found across the Beautiful Plains region. Neepawa is no exception! Pictured here are a few examples of the many animals Neepawa Banner & Press staff member Casper Wehrhahn caught on camera near Rotary Park last week.
Far right: A young faun, with some spots still visible. It was out grazing with its mom and sibling. The sibling also still had some of its spots!
Top right: Look up in the trees and you might see some of these birds searching for grubs.
Bottom right: Geese are a regular guest at Neepawa’s Park Lake. Seen here are just a small few of the many flocks that regularly make use of Park Lake– especially as migration draws near.

The Tangled Threads Quilt Guild is located in Neepawa and was formed in the fall of 1995. We are a group who enjoy quilting, and get together monthly to share our projects, our knowledge and to learn from one another. We welcome new and visiting members of all ages. Meetings are held on the first Tuesday of the month, from September through to June. The meetings are held in the Neepawa Library Meeting Room at 7:00 p.m. During this meeting we have a “Show & Tell” where members can show their completed projects. We also have a monthly sewing day, on the third Saturday of each month starting in October and monthly until March. These sewing days offer opportunities to help out our community with various charity projects, to learn a new skill or to work on your own projects. Over the years we have done projects for: Alzheimer’s, Victoria Quilts Canada, Hugs for the Holidays, wheelchair quilts for Country Meadows, wall hangings for Kinsmen Kourts and for several years, a baby quilt for the New Years Baby. We have also donated a defibrillator to the curling club and made a donation to the Roxy Theatre. Are you a quilter or would you like to learn? We have a committee whose purpose is to plan the learning for our Saturday workshops and meetings. Workshops/
classes/sew days offer projects from beginner to advances levels. Each April we offer a workshop to our members where the committee picks a project, brings in someone to teach us, and we enjoy a day of learning together. They also provide the members with a Challenge Project as a way of stretching our creativity and sewing skills. It is a member’s choice to participate in these challenges. If there is enough interest in the community, we are looking at offering beginner quilting classes where you would learn the basics and be able to complete a small project with the help of some experienced quilters. If this is of interest to you, please email us at tangledthreadsQG@gmail.com
We are excited to be hosting a quilt show at the end of this month on Friday, Sept. 26, from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., and Saturday, Sept 27, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., at the Neepawa Legion Hall. There will be many beautiful quilts and wall hangings to enjoy, Mama Bears and the Big Wheel Quilt Shops will be in attendance if you need fabric, and our members will have a variety of second hand quilting products available for purchase in our New to You shop. For more information about our guild please follow us on Facebook @ Tangled Threads Quilt Guild Neepawa or give Brenda a call at 204-841-0865.
