(Continued from page 4) eing in the Saskatchewan (legislative) assembly was more like being in political theatre than serving the people. I didn’t like the idea that the boys in the backroom controlled everything and always told you how to vote.” Nevertheless, Lorje was pleased with two accomplishments. As an MLA, she wrote a report that became the basis for what is the provincial government’s immigration policy. As minister of Aboriginal Affairs, she was the first minister to visit every First Nation in the province. By 2006, she was back in civic politics. In her 22 years as a councillor, there were many highlights. Moving the bus barns out of Caswell was an important focus as was changing the sound
wall policy on many thoroughfares. She enjoyed the experience of the 1989 Jeux Canada Summer Games, particularly with the legacy of facilities the Summer Games left behind. One of the disappointments was the decision to build Saskatchewan Place in the north end in 1988, given she had been a strong voice for a downtown location. Lorje has lived in Montgomery Place since 1979 and is married to Tom Bentley-Fisher, renowned in Saskatoon and globally for his work as an artistic director and playwright. For the moment, she does some consulting work, is active with the local community association and if the occasion ever arose where a civic byelection was called, “I’d be a candidate in a moment.”

“a quantity of precious metals, gems, or other valuable objects” “keep carefully (a valuable or valued item)”
At Crossmount we believe we have many treasures. First of all, the beauty of this place is a treasure in itself and we find people treasure the moments they spend here. However, there are even more treasures to be found. We are referring to our staff and residents, all of whom are gems in their own right. One of our wonderful treasures is Connie Miller. During the summer you will find her working tirelessly in The Glen area and wedding garden, keeping this space breathtakingly beautiful. During the winter, she keeps busy in our greenhouse preparing seedlings for transplant and lovingly caring for and tending an array of lush plants. The greenhouse is open to the public. Stop by and meet Connie. Grab a cup of coffee or tea from the Apple Crate Café and chat with Connie about the assortment of plants in our greenhouse. Breathe deeply the earth scented air and enjoy a few moments of bliss in this relaxing and bright space. You may discover a few treasures of your own during your visit. Crossmount is an innovative aging-in-place community located 5 kms south of Saskatoon on Lorne Avenue (Highway 219).
