Is complacency the goal?

A2 Rivers Banner October 29, 2021

I

n recent years, a trend has developed among the so-called mainstream media. They have taken up two aims.

One is to lull people into complacency and the other is to drive people into panic mode. One would think those two goals would be in opposition to one another, but they are, in fact, quite complementary.

Some news stories, by their very nature, are rather sleepy and if the reporter doesn’t dig very deep, it’s easy to pass over the few facts offered. Those kinds of stories will naturally generate complacency.

Other stories may incite panic. They may be stories about war, mass shootings, COVID-19 and alleged political scandals. There are so many of these panic stories that people, labouring under a severe information overload and with no access to any recourse to actually do anything about the story, also lapse into complacency.

It may not be intentional on anybody’s part, but governments like complacency.

Complacent people don’t ask questions, don’t rock the boat, don’t get involved.

Obviously, 40 per cent of people are too complacent to even vote in elections. The longer a government or party is in power, the less they actually want to hear from the voters.

I am trying to adopt a co-worker’s advice and avoid major news media outlets and that includes large chunks of Facebook and Twitter. It has become a longstanding joke that if you watch Fox News, you get one story. If you watch CNN, you get an almost opposite story.

That said, the two channels usually don’t even feature the same “top” story.

It’s interesting that the channels seem to have different important things to try and panic us about.

We have four levels of government in Canada, so there is plenty of news to be uncovered. For Manitobans, the four levels of government are federal (Ottawa), provincial (Winnipeg), municipal and school board. The latter two have the most direct impact on us as citizens, so it’s important that we know about what’s happening at those levels. It’s also at those two levels that it can be hard to get the news out. Local newspapers can only have as many staff as their ad revenue can support. Some newspapers only have a staff of one, some have a few, but none have enough to get all the news out to the public.

Municipalities are required to post their minutes in their offices. To their credit, most municipalities are also posting their minutes online. Some websites are easier to wade through than others.

The Rivers Banner and Neepawa Banner & Press cover many municipalities.

As of Monday night this week, Riverdale, Oakview, Elton, Town of Carberry, Glenella-Lansdowne, Alonsa and Ste. Rose had posted their September minutes.

Harrison Park, Clanwilliam-Erickson, the Town of Minnedosa, North CypressLangford and Westlake-Gladstone had posted their October minutes. Unless I am reading the websites incorrectly, the Town of Neepawa had only posted their August minutes and Rosedale, their July minutes. Minto-Odanah’s website says their minutes are available upon request.

McCreary’s last minutes that are on their

Ken Waddell website are from February.

The municipalities that have posted their October minutes are doing so with the understanding that their minutes will need to be approved at the next meeting of council, but they are getting the draft version out as soon as they can. That’s good. The ones that have only posted their September minutes are waiting until the minutes are approved by council.

They could be getting the news of their minutes out in a more timely fashion. As for the Town of Neepawa, Rosedale and McCreary, I am not sure why the delay.

Having covered council affairs for over 30 years and having served as a mayor twice, I know staff do get busy and posting minutes to a website may not seem too pressing, but municipal residents should be able to access council minutes as soon as possible. Admittedly, reading council minutes can be a pretty boring matter, but councils should ensure that the decisions they make are available to the public.

It would make sense for towns and municipalities to make a deal with local newspapers and publish their news in an ad. Some places do that. Swan River does it regularly. The Town of Neepawa does it once in a while. All municipal govern-

ments advertise mandated items, such as zoning changes and some by-laws, but it would serve the taxpayers well to see what’s happening around the council tables. It’s impossible for a newspaper to attend all council meetings. Local newspapers may have anywhere from three or four councils up to a dozen in their coverage area and the time and cost factor prohibitive.

The province of Manitoba occasionally informs people about what they are doing with our money, but rarely. The federal government rarely advertises what they are doing except when they send money to California for ads on Facebook.

The system seems generally geared to spreading complacency, which is really sad. One would think that governments at all levels would want to tell us what’s going on, but that isn’t proven out by their actions.

The problem is that lack of information and the complacency it generates doesn’t make for a strong democracy.

Reviewing our past

T

his past June, my favourite comic strip character, Garfield the cat, celebrated his 43rd birthday.

Forty-three years is a long time for anyone to hold one job– but Garfield’s creator Jim Davis, now aged 76, is still overseeing the creation of each day’s strip.

Fortunately for fans like me, an electronic archive of all Garfield comic strips is available for viewing and, about a month ago, I decided to begin reading the Garfield story from the beginning, looking to see how Garfield has evolved since he debuted in 1979.

Some things about him haven’t changed all that much.

Garfield is still lazy, overweight, craves human food (especially lasagna) and has an overly inflated view of his own significance. He is living proof of the truth of the old saying: “Dogs have owners; cats have staff.” Garfield’s staff is his owner, Jon Arbuckle, who, in 43 years, has had to deal with more incidents of shredded drapes, destroyed furniture and flying food than any pet owner should ever have to face. But Jon takes it all in stride– or at least he appears to.

As I am watching Garfield evolve, I have also looked in the mirror to see how I and others have changed over the same period of time. And I have been amazed to see how some of Garfield’s experiences mirror experiences I and others have had.

RiveRs BanneR Est. 1908

RIGHT IN THE CENTRE

For example, one of the things Garfield had to learn was to respect other living beings, especially dogs and cats that were bigger or tougher than he was. Many of the early strips end with Garfield in a crumpled mess on the floor after losing a fight with a much bigger dog, cat or a mother bird who took offense when Garfield invited one of her new hatchlings to join him for lunch. Eventually, he learned to respect his owner, the other pets in Jon Arbuckle’s house (Odie the dog and various species of fish), and the pets and people who lived on his street or who he met on various outings.

That’s just one of many examples I could give to show how life’s experiences help us develop the qualities of love, acceptance and forgiveness– qualities that enable us to live in peace and harmony with our families, neighbours and wider communities.

As we go through life, we gain a deeper appreciation for the truth St. Paul shares in Romans 8:28. “We know,” he writes, “that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him and who are called according to his purpose.” Then, in verse 29, he tells us what that purpose is. “Those God foreknew,” he says, “(God) predestined to be conformed to the image of his son.” That’s another way of saying that God’s intent for all who believe in him

is that in character, lifestyle and deportment (action), we will become as much like Jesus Christ as it is possible for a human person to become.

The path to achieving this goal is never easy. Every thing we experience in life can take us an additional step on the road to Christ-likeness. But we must allow that to happen.

We must be willing to cooperate with God, to let him help us change how we think, how we speak and how we live.

Sadly, we aren’t always as cooperative as we should be.

By reviewing our past, we can see where we have strayed from the path God has chosen for us and take the steps we need to find forgiveness, experience healing and get back on that path again.

By Rita Friesen A dose of commmon sense

Y

ears ago, when I was employed at The Banner, Ken provided the staff with an opportunity to attend a workshop on management. The session was encouraging and enlightening. One of the presenters spoke on ‘common sense’, and in the course of the lecture expounded on the reality that there is no common sense, for we all come with a different set of family, faith, and community values. What is common to me may be totally foreign to you, and your common may appear to be ridiculous and senseless to me. That explained a great deal to me, and altered my perception of ‘common sense’.

So where am I going with this? Another Rita rabbit hole? While cleaning corners and closets, I came across an Eaton’s catalogue from the fall and winter of 1942-1943. The catalogues I recall from both Sears and Eaton’s had shiny, glossy, “Buy me!” pictures all over the front cover, especially the Christmas editions, which depicted the jolly Santa or the perfect family in matching pj’s surrounded by abundance. This copy is tattered and water stained, mostly intact, black and white and about five hundred pages of pictures and prices.

The cover has a block filled with clear concise advice.

“YOU CAN HELP. Ottawa has requested everyone

to conserve vital materials and services. You can help Canada by following these simple but important suggestions when buying by mail: *Avoid exchanges and delays by making your orders carefully. Study the descriptions of the items catalogued. Check instructions for measuring and be sure to state the correct size wanted. *If choice of colour is given, be sure to tell us the colour you want. *Always print your name and address in clear block letters. *Make your Catalogue last the season…

Use only one in a household…Share yours with your neighbour. *Do not order beyond requirements. *Take care of the things you buy.”

How is that for a front cover!! I recognise the retail outlet is no longer in business, in fact, many young folks will not know the name, but it did not go out of the business because of this statement or attitude.

A Monday evening routine includes face time with my sisters. I showed them the cover and Sister the Elder, who is never warm enough, inquired about the cost of a good winter coat. There is a page with the subtitle– “Women who work. You plan your defense wardrobe with strategy. You choose such as these– simple, coordinated, functional. So you look like ‘good news’ coming down the street.” These coats are practical and attractive. One is reversible wool to waterproof cotton twill for only $14.95. Add a few more details, wool, slightly padded shoulders and sheared rabbit collar for $19.75. The fur coats were sheared rabbit, dyed, from $100 to $150.

What moves me most about this catalogue cover is what I know as common sense. Be careful with what you buy, and take care of it. The nation was able to comply for the war effort. And now a blessed resurgence of these values for the health of the environment.

Observation

By Addy Oberlin Rivers Banner

T

his morning, I was walking from the parking lot to the centre for the elderly to have a hymnsing. When they took my temperature, it was 29°C. It was pretty cool outside, but I thought the thermometer must be broken. The nurse showed me her temperature, it was 36°C. After my fingers were warmed up, we enjoyed the hymnsing.

I love to make music with the little talent the Lord has bestowed upon me to play the old hymns. There are always a few favourites. One hymn that is not in the book needs to get played every time I am there.

Yesterday, I went to see the eye doctor. My eyes are beginning to fail. He will try to fix my lenses so that I can still read the notes. A man who loves music.

We can see that music is used through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Laban told Jacob that he would have sent him off with music if he would not have deceived him. In Revelation, the Babylonians were told that there will never be music heard in them again.

Keep music being made and heard for young and old.

Christmas concert on its way Warren Smallwood Rivers Ministerial T he R iver s M i n is t er i a l A s s o c i at ion i s planning a Community Christmas Concert for Dec. 19, 2021. It will be at the Legion Hall at 7:00 p.m. The main part of the program consists of seven short video clips using scripture to tell the Christmas Story. These will be interspersed with Christmas Carols. The majority of the music will be congregational singing, but some individual specials will be welcome.

We need six to eight volunteer ind iv idua ls or groups to perform the music and lead the singing. The program will also be recorded

by WCGtv Rivers for later playback on channel 115. Volunteers are also needed to operate cameras, sound and the

switcher. Following the program there will be Christmas baking and hot beverages.

According to present Health Order 22(3) we have no restrictions for numbers if all are fully vaccinated. So this will probably be a requirement for at tenda nce.

Also according to present Order 29 audience members will be required to wear masks while seated and singing. Performers on stage will not. Later, while eating, masks may be removed. If these restrictions change as of

November 30, so that the concert has to be cancelled, we will record all the parts and arrange for a live stream of the video at the time it would have taken place.

Volunteers can contact Warren Smallwood at 204-328-7251 or <warren.smallwood@gmail. com>. If you have questions or concerns about sound or instr uments contact Allan McCauley at 204-721-3670.

The family would like to thank Dr. Duncan, Dr. Moller and all the nurses at Cancer Care. Thanks also to the Rivers Palliative Care Unit for making his final days so peaceful. A Celebration of Life will follow at a later date. There will be a private family burial.
