Random thoughts

•Last week’s column on Canada Post caused a fair bit of reaction, all confirming what I said. Canada Post has a very big top-down problem. They are out of touch with their local postal workers and local management.

Warehouses, and even semi-trailers, get backed up with parcels, even the First Class mail is being delayed for days. Parcels can take weeks by way of Canada Post, all the while couriers can move stuff in two to three days across the whole country. Canada Post can’t even move parcels around a region in two to three days.

The upshot for the newspaper business is that papers are Third Class mail and when there is a backlog, they get left to the back of the line. We are very thankful that our local post offices do the very best they can to get all the mail out, including our papers. We are in the process of making some adjustments and at considerable cost to get more of our papers out earlier.

•As Manitoba grinds through yet another extension of the C-19 lockdown, speculation is high as to what might get opened up next.

Will it be more businesses? Will it be gymnasiums and churches? Will it be youth sports or junior hockey?

Many leagues have cancelled their season so that, for the most part, male and female minor hockey league play has been cancelled. Most senior hockey leagues have been cancelled.

Time is indeed running out to have any kind of meaningful hockey league play. Most arenas

have set deadlines as to when they will shut down their ice plants and if they do, they won’t likely be re-opening for this season.

•As long as some businesses can’t open and neither can churches, as long as funerals are limited to 10 people, it’s unlikely any major crowd event will be allowed to open up. If the idea is to slow the spread, then logic would say that keeping crowd numbers down makes sense.

There is one problem, shopping malls have huge crowds and they can do so legally.

It’s really hard to believe that a hockey game spreads COVID-19, but a huge crowd at a big store doesn’t. The public’s patience is wearing very thin with this concept.

•I still think that the provincial government has done a pretty good job, overall. That said, a

”

speaking government communications are really, really badly done. To use a simple example, we wanted to ask local wildlife people about the moose that was wandering around Neepawa. The local staff couldn’t talk to us or were afraid to do so. That’s ridiculous, but even more ridiculous, we had to phone somebody

with government communications in Winnipeg and after two or three days, they got back with no answers whatsoever about whether the moose was being moved out of town. Their brilliant response was to tell us to stay two bus lengths away from the moose.

Most government communications are about as meaningless. It shouldn’t be only the premier and health staff who can speak. Why can’t the head of the local hospital tell us what’s happening or the local care home manager?

The government has dozens of communications people, almost all in Winnipeg, and they may not have knowledge of what’s happening on the other side of the city, let alone the other side of the province. The Regional Health Authorities are pretty good at getting answers out, but it is a bit convoluted. Other departments are almost impossible to get answers out of. Cabinet ministers are scared silly to speak, unless their remarks have been pre-approved.

More openness would be really helpful.

A False Gospel

I love a good prank and have been known to pull a few for the sake of a quick laugh or two at the expense of others who hopefully share my sense of humour. They’re never meant to be mean spirited and I wish no harm upon the person(s) on the receiving end. But in other situations this isn’t the case as countless numbers of fraudulent calls or emails are sent everyday seeking to scam unsuspecting people out of their money. Swindlers pose as fake government employees, tech and utility companies in the hopes of obtaining a credit card number or other form of financial information. The sad part is that many fall prey to these crooks and are left devastated. As a sidebar, here are three well known fraudulent stories, or hoaxes, that hopefully didn’t inflict any harm other than causing some people to eat crow.

•Piltdown Man: In 1912, an archaeologist claimed to have found the skull of what seemed to be the missing link between ape and man in Piltdown, England. Evolutionists were overjoyed with the find that, for years, apparently gave the theory some credibility. It was finally revealed that the assembled skull contained bones of an ape and a man.

•Crop Circles: In 1976, two Englishmen decided to make an elaborate pattern in a field, convincing many that flying saucers were real, which resulted in more crop circles appearing around the globe.

• Loch Ness Monster: In 1934, a photograph of the legendary Loch Ness Monster taken in Scotland was soon discredited, but not before convincing many that Nessie existed.

Because these were elaborate hoaxes, it’s easy to see how many believed their credibility. A concern these days are more false stories, or what we may call fake news, leading many fall for more false narratives. I believe we can discern between what is true and false, but it requires reading and research on our part but this will take effort, and it’s easier to believe another’s view rather than go out of our way to seek the truth. We do our utmost to steer clear of it to avoid conflicts with our existing beliefs.

Last week I shared the “good news” of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that can save us from our sins and eternal punishment by offering us forgiveness and eternal life through His atonement on the cross. Unfortunately, this wonderful and joyous news has been falsified and distorted by frauds, often deceived themselves, that lead us into believing a false gospel and a false Christ. The Bible calls these deceivers false prophets, so listen to what Christ has to say in the Gospel of Matthew followed by the Apostle Paul in his epistles: •Matthew 7:15 - “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.”

•Matthew 24:4,510,11 - “Jesus said, ‘Watch out that no one decieves you. For many will come in my name, claiming they are the Messiah and will deceive many.’ “ “At that time many will turn away from the faith...and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.”

watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. For such people are not serving our Lord Jesus Christ...but deceive the minds of naive people.

•Galatians 1:8,9 - “But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse.”

•2 Timothy 4:3,4 - “For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine (teaching). Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.”

Myth is just another word for something that’s not true and Scripture has said that many of us will reject it’s truth and decide to believe what is adaptable to our worldview and pleasing to us.

Next week we’ll look into various churches, organizations and religions to see how they conflict with the beliefs of Christianity.

Home Bodies

By Rita Friesen Be crazy enough to change the world

W

hen my parents chose to relocate from the Kane area to the backwoods of Graysville, they did not consult me. We were moved from a nest of fun loving cousins and doting aunts and uncles to the hinterland. This was way back in the early 1950s, a very long time ago. Telephone calls were a privilege and a trip back home to see extended family was rare. We moved in early spring, the Easter break to the best of my memory (I admit I may be in error). Going to school in Kane we caught the bus, driven by my father, joined a class of which half were relatives and near neighbours. We wore something akin to a uniform, a navy jumper, no slacks.

That first month at the new school was terrible for me, a rather shy, awkward eight-year-old. I didn’t know the other kids, didn’t really know the neighbours yet, and the one bright spot was Mrs. Gray, a seasoned teacher. She understood children.

In the beauty of the early summer, it was easy for me to hide in the trees beside the lane until the bus had picked up my sister and left. My father was not pleased when I wandered back and he had to stop

his work to drive me to school.

Then one day in June, Mrs. Gray, frustrated with the number of students who forgot their readers at home, stated that the next one who forgot their book would just have to go home and get it. Truly, she may have said that, I doubt it, but I felt it to my core.

And didn’t I forget my reader. Asking to leave the room– raising my hand– I simply walked out of the classroom, out of the school and headed the three and a half miles home. Only later did I know that the teacher and principal had older students check the village, even sending some down to the near by river. My arrival home was not heralded as a brave, courageous and obedient act. My father picked me up, set me firmly in the farm pick up, drove me back to the school, carried me up the steps like a bag of potatoes, howling like a banshee, and deposited me in front of Mrs. Gray. Just a note– my wails had called every classroom door to pop open, with inquiring eyes watching this prodigal’s return. With a terse, “this won’t happen again,” my father left. Needless to say– it did not happen again.

Was I running away from school? Perhaps. In my mind, I was being obedient– see how different perspectives can be? Thankfully, I did settle down, and settle in, and school became my safe place. So why this story today? I tell you the truth, as most of you, I am restless and ready to break out of my home– have coffee with friends, eat out, travel. Part of me feels like that eight-year-old me did– no one asked my opinion on this move!! Knowing what is best, for all of us, I will not run away, I will stay home…

Pandemic fears are killing what makes life worth living

By John Feldsted Submitted

The lockdowns provoked by the response to the coronavirus epidemic show little sign of letting up. “Two weeks to slow the spread” and “15 days to f latten the curve” were lies when they were spoken.

They quickly morphed into months.

Meanwhile, the media has been content to mourn the mounting COVID death toll. Almost everything that has happened this past year, it seems, was blamed on the virus.

The thoroughly dishonest mainstream media, which functions as the propaganda wing of the Liberal Party, bears the brunt of the blame for the devastation caused by the destructive overreaction to COVID. Through its constant fear-mongering, the media has transformed a relatively normal inf luenza epidemic into an all-purpose bogeyman to instill terror into those willing to trade everything that makes us joyfully human for the imaginary security of a slave’s chains.

The current virus death count, generously defined as the death of anyone who died having tested positive before death, stands at roughly 20,100, or 0.053% of our estimated population of 38 million. Using “cases” (the new benchmark), there have been 784,000 cases in Canada, which is 2.1% of our population and of that number, 2.6% have died. The

media ignores the 712,000 people who have recovered.

Mus ic, a r t , d a nce, t heat re, and motion pictures are closer to death than the obese 85-year-old with comorbidities who make up a significant share of deaths directly attributed to COVID. Public gatherings are forbidden except for Antifa, Black Lives Matter and Indigenous protests.

Other victims are the hospitality sector, hotels, restaurants, and bars, which have long been the targets of climate change lunatics. Our churches and synagogues, which militant atheists have long wished to shutter, are closed and shuttered.

Our entire public life, the things that make life worth living, has been shut down, ruined, or put out of business. If everything reopens, it will be under the conditions of the “new normal,” which means that governments will never, ever, ever allow us freedoms and rights again.

Worst of all, affecting our humanity’s essence is the notion of “social distancing,” which has cruelly separated both individuals and generations. For centuries we have regarded the forced separation of families with horror. Instructing people to consider their fellow human beings as virus-infected nightmares who can kill them is reprehensible. Hollywood could not script a better zombie movie.

Children have learned the most useful lesson the ruling class behind

these monstrous policies could hope for: fear, obedience, and submission.

Has it been worth it? By any unemotional and rational consideration, the answer is no.

This seems a cruel question, to which a cruel trade-off must be the answer. Societies have been making that choice since the beginning of history. After a year of COVID, during which we have surrendered our civil liberties and our way of life to a handful of intellectually med iocre a nd mor a l ly beref t bureaucrats, most unelected, what have we got to show for it?

We are living under house arrest while COVID case counts continue to rise without pause.

That is the result of an irresponsible nation with a vaguely defined future, as governments are making it up as they go. When governments seek renewal from the arrival of COVID vaccines to save their political careers, we know it is because their virus containment efforts have failed.

Governments have to justify their actions and demonstrate why they must continue to suppress our constitutional and democratic freedoms and rights. They have not contained COVID, so their warnings that lifting restrictions will result in massive increases in infections are not credible. Governments have spent a full year lying to us, suppressing information and fear-mongering.

Observation

By Addy Oberlin Rivers Banner

O

ne of my clocks has a personality problem and will only work when put on a certain angle.

It was sitting at the corner of my table, but when I changed the tablecloth around at Christmas time, it refused to run. I put it in my office and got it running there, but I could not hear it in my living room.

The other day, I brought it back to the living room and tried again to get it running in a different spot.

And… I got it running again. It felt like a friend had come back when I could hear it again, even when I was in bed.

It made me think of the hymn, “What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear...” by Joseph Scriven.

We might have put this Friend aside, because we assume we can look after ourselves. However, He is always waiting for us to come back. Jesus tells us in Matthew 28:11 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Let us leave our burdens with the Lord and find joy and peace this week.

News Media Canada: Rivers Police Service January 2021 report An urgent message to all Members of Parliament Donna Falkevitch Rivers Banner

We have a very serious situation in this country, and we are delighted to hear that Minister of Heritage Stephen Guilbault said on Monday that the government is preparing legislation to force tech giants to fairly compensate content creators.

Google and Facebook, two of the richest companies in history, control the onramp to the internet highway in Canada. They decide what we as a sovereign nation see and don’t see in the news. To make matters worse, they take the news produced by Canadians and don’t pay for it.

Meanwhile, all Canadian news media companies, big and small, are suffering for two reasons: First, they don’t get paid for their content by Facebook and Google; and Second, Facebook and Google take over 80 per cent of all Canadian digital advertising industry revenue. These massive American companies get virtually all of the revenue and don’t pay for content.

Mov ie content doesn’t work that way in Canada.

Music content doesn’t work that way. TV show content

doesn’t work that way. So why is news content treated differently?

We only have to look south of the border to see what happens when real news companies disappear, and social media platforms distribute divisive, fake news.

We need to support healthy, independent, diverse news companies as the backbone of our democracy.

This is urgent. It’s a fact that news companies across Canada are going out of business. COVID-19 is accelerating the decline.

Journalism jobs are disappearing. That means real news keeps disappearing and hate and fake news will be all that’s left to distribute.

Let’s not let this happen in Canada.

But there is good news.

Australia has figured out the solution. They created a law that forces the trillion-dollar monopolies to pay fairly for news content. This costs the taxpayer absolutely nothing.

We encourage all Members of Parliament to move quickly. Canada needs your leadership.

John Hinds President/CEO News Media Canada

sumptives”. It began fundraising and by 1910, the Sanatorium on Pelican Lake, near Ninette, was open for business. In those days, it was believed that cold air killed the TB bacteria so the patients were taken out onto the balcony to sleep. Under feather comforters, hot water bottles on their feet and toques on their heads, there they slept in the cold air. Nourishing food was served along with rest, rest and more rest. Until one was on the mend, there was no baths, no sitting up, no deep breaths and no movement, except to the toilet once a day! When one was on the mend, they had entertainment, picnics, plays, orchestras, parties and the occasional romance.

There were several marriages that came from these romances. For Dynevor Indian Hospital, Clearwater Lake Indian Hospital and the Brandon Sanatorium that were for the First Nations peoples, the memories of their stay were not quite the same. These segregated hospitals were inadequately funded and poorly staffed. The people they served spoke a different language, given little information about their treatment and at times, treated very poorly.

The wet, cold and overcrowded trenches of WWI saw many of the men returning home with NDREA TB.

staff’s wages cut and other money saving techniques to keep the sanatoriums open. Surgical procedures were being developed to help in the treatment of TB. The biggest advancement came in 1944, with the discovery of streptomycin that killed the TB bacteria– the first effective drug against tuberculosis.

As a child in Saskatchewan in the 1960s, I remember all my family going to town for a TB test.

We all lined up to receive the Mantoux skin test, which is the injection of tuberculin just under the skin of the lower part of your arm. Several days later, we lined up again for the nurse to look at our arms for a reaction. Our family was one of the fortunate ones. After the war, Manitoba’s mobile x-ray clinics used a miniature x-ray that could x-ray more than 1,000 people per day, with far better results. The continued advancements in new treatments and medications reduced the long periods of time that needed to be spent in sanatoriums. By the late ‘60s and early ‘70s the sanatoriums were all closed.

Nutritious food was part of the cure for the patients in the sanatoriums. Ninette had gardens where they grew fresh produce for the kitchen staff to turn into meals. Today’s recipes include a salad and a “heathier” slice to have for afternoon tea time.

Swiss apple salad 4 red apples, diced 2 Tbsp. lemon juice 1 cup cubed Swiss cheese 1 cup celery, sliced

1/2 red pepper, diced 1 cup sour cream or plain yoghurt 1 tsp. celery seed 1/4 tsp. each of pepper and salt lettuce leaves

Place diced apples in a bowl. Sprinkle with the lemon juice. Add the celery seed, pepper and salt to the sour cream. Add all the ingredients to the apples and mix.

Chill until ready to use. Serve on lettuce leaves.

Apricot seed slice 1/2 cup sesame seeds 3/4 cup butter 1 cup brown sugar 1 egg 2 tsp. vanilla

1 cup f lour 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1 cup quick oats 1/2 cup raisins

1 cup dried apricots, finely chopped Place sesame seeds on a cookie sheet and toast at 350°F for 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden. In a bowl, cream the butter and sugar, add the egg and vanilla. To the flour add the salt, baking soda and cinnamon then mix into the creamed mixture. Add the oats, raisins, apricots and sesame seeds. Mix and spread into a greased 9x13” pan and bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes. Do not overbake.

DEADLINE: TUESDAY AT NOON

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone for the thoughts and prayers, kind words, and flowers and food, that comforted us on the passing of our dear Dad, Irvin Anderson.

We are truly blessed ~The Anderson Family~

We would like to take the time to say thank-you to everyone who has helped us out, offered support, and sent warm wishes our way over the last few weeks. We are overwhelmed with the support from our family, friends, and this wonderful community.

Thank-you so much!

Edythe “Elaine” Common.

With great sadness the family announces Elaine passed away peacefully on Sunday, January 24, 2021 at Riverdale Personal Care Home with family by her side. Elaine was born July 17, 1930 in Bradwardine to Bill and Gladys Graham. She resided in Bradwardine other than a few years she spent teaching in Douglas, MB. On December 9, 1950, Elaine and John Common were married on the Graham farm. They moved into their home in Bradwardine and raised their growing family. Many lifelong friends were made in those years.

Mom was a devoted community volunteer, cooking or working at the many small town events. Her baking and canning was enjoyed by many, especially her family. In 1972 the family moved to Rivers. Mom loved the family get togethers - always big and noisy, and time spent with their group of friends. Playing cards, board games with friends, watching curling, or most important, her bingo nights were the pleasures she enjoyed most. Mom was a kind, strong and gentle woman who enjoyed the simple things. Mom, you will be remembered for your gentle soul, caring heart and unconditional love. Left to cherish and honour her memories are children Janice (Bruce) Walker, Jo-Anne (Bob) Curry, Graham (Peggy) Common, Duane (Audrey) Common and Shannon Neal. Also remembering grandma with love are Wally (Carla), Meaghen (Cory), Jonathon (Tiffany), Brady, Wyatt (Sam) and Kylie, as well as great grandchildren Rachel, Kyle, Kaedyn, Landen and Bennett.

She is also survived by sister Sandra (Chuck) Moody and many special nieces and nephews. Elaine was predeceased by her husband Johnny of 64 years, son Darrell, infant son Malcom, parents Bill and Gladys Graham, brother Garry and in-laws on both sides. We would like to thank Dr. Anita Vermaak for the exceptional care you gave Mom. Also a big thank you to the Riverdale Personal Care Home for your dedicated care of mom; we will be forever grateful. A private graveside service will be held at a later date.

Donations in memory of Elaine may be made to Riverdale Personal Care Home, Activity Department, Box 428, Rivers, MB R0K 1X0 or Heart & Stoke Foundation of Manitoba, 1379 Kenaston Blvd, Winnipeg, MB R3P 2T5.

“In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place no one else will ever fill.” Rest in Peace Mom” Expressions of sympathy may be made at www.memorieschapel.com. Arrangements with Memories Chapel, Brandon, 204-727-0330.
