While it isn’t a regular Fair Days year, some last minute heroics put together a small parade on Saturday morning.

Limited to a few vehicles, the procession went down nearly every street in town, bringing a bit of the storied Fair Days of past years to our COVID-19 reality.

The Show is about to go on . . . The Biggar Recreation Valley was “movie central”, Friday evening as a drive-in movie evening was held, part of what would have been our Fair Days. A simple thing, to be sure, the socially distanced event was very popular for those who attended. (Independent Photo by Kevin Brautigam)

Sun West welcomes reopening of schools The Sun West School Division is reacting positively to the announcement from Education Minister Gord Wyant, June 9, that Saskatchewan schools will reopen this fall.

“We think the government’s announcement was timely and gives school divisions the necessary time to prepare for the fall,” said Sun West Chair, Karen Itterman.

“We look forward to seeing the health and safety guidelines the government is preparing, so we can make all necessary arrangements to protect our students and staff as well as the wider community.”

While Itterman indicated that Sun West is prepared to welcome students back to school, the division is also ready to help students and parents who don’t feel it is time to return just yet.

“I was glad to hear that Minister Wyant addressed the fact that some parents and students may not be comfortable returning to schools immediately, particularly those with compromised immune systems or other health concerns. Sun West is in a very strong position to help these students and parents both locally and through resources at our Distance Learning Centre and online Resource

Bank,” said Itterman.

Sun West has already taken preliminary steps towards preparing for the return to school this fall through Teacher Professional Learning Communities that are examining how to assist students who may have gaps in their learning going into new grades.

“Our teachers really rose to the occasion in the last several months,” stated Itterman, “they found ways to help students continue learning after the schools closed while also preparing ways to transition students back to school when they reopen this fall.”

The 2020-21 Saskatchewan Budget meets the challenges presented by the global COVID-19 pandemic.

“Saskatchewan is strong, our province’s fiscal foundation remains solid and our economy will recover,” Finance Minster Donna Harpauer said, Monday. “Saskatchewan people are resilient and our province has what the world needs as the global economy recovers from the pandemic.

“Our government is helping support people through the pandemic and investing to stimulate our economy and create jobs.

Every province, every

jurisdiction in the world has seen its economy and finances hit hard by the pandemic. Saskatchewan is not immune, but we are better positioned than most to provide the support people need to get through the pandemic and see our economy recover and jobs return.”

The reduction in provincial revenues and additional costs related to the pandemic have resulted in a $2.4 billion deficit forecast for 2020-21.

“This is a pandemic deficit, not a structural deficit,” Harpauer said. “Prior to the pandemic, Saskatchewan was on track for balanced budgets last

year and this year, and I am confident that as Saskatchewan’s economy recovers, our revenues will also recover and we will get back to balance in the coming years without having to cut programs and services.”

While the 2020-21 deficit is significant, it is much smaller than the deficits expected in many other provinces this fiscal year.

Revenue is forecast to be $13.6 billion, down $1.2 billion, or about eight per cent from last year, a result of the shuttering of domestic and global economies to contain the spread of COVID-

by Cpl. Dereck Crozier, Biggar Detachment, NCO IC There were 47 calls for service this past week.

This included nine traffic complaints, one collision in Sonningdale, and 17 Traffic Safety Act violations issued.

There were a couple of complaints of abandoned vehicles and the owners were contacted.

Remember, unregistered vehicles are not allowed to be parked on municipal roadways and must remain on the owners property or have them hauled away.

There were five reports of suspicious activity and one break and enter reported.

We received a report of a deer being caught in

a fence along Highway 14 and the horses were back grazing along Highway 4 north. Of course “nobody” seems to own them until “somebody” comes along and loads them up. Then “nobody” wants to be “somebody” but then “anybody” was “somebody” and “nobody” turned out to be “everybody”. Someday we may know “somebody” but until then it will be a long mystery to “everybody”.

Great Job to the organizers of the last minute parade on Saturday, glad we were able to participate and Cst. Malik enjoyed featuring our bike patrol.

Thanks to everyone, who came out to watch, it was awesome to see all the community spirit.

2020-21 Budget supports COVID economic recovery 19, combined with the oil price collapse.

The 2020-21 Budget includes $16.1 billion in spending, an increase of $1.1 billion, or about seven per cent compared to last year. This includes record spending on health care, which is vital during the COVID19 pandemic. The budget also invests strongly into many needed programs and services.

To help stimulate Saskatchewan’s economic recovery and create jobs, the province’s capital plan in the 2020-21 Budget includes a $3.1 billion investment to build hospitals, schools, highways,

municipal and Crown corporation infrastructure.

Over the next two years the province will invest $7.5 billion as part of its capital plan, which includes $2.0 billion announced in May to help further stimulate the economy and create jobs.

“These are projects that will result in much needed economic activity and jobs,” Harpauer

said.

“Saskatchewan is fortunate to be in a strong financial position to make these kinds of important capital investments in every part of our province.”

The 2020-21 Budget includes more than $1.0 billion in support to fight the pandemic, for individuals, for businesses and for initiatives to help the economy recover.

Cut off from the world courtesy of Social Media Congratulations to the Fair Days Committee for their efforts in bringing a Fair Days event to the Town of Biggar.

There was a drive-in movie, parade, scavenger hunt and talent show.

If you were lucky enough, you knew about these events in advance, thanks to social media.

However, if you were like roughly 40 per cent of Biggar, you had no idea this was going on. I tend to call the past weekend the “Half Biggar Fair Days”.

Now, I realize that social media can get information in your hands faster than ever, but you need to be on that network to receive that information.

I chatted with a number of people before these events and asked them if they knew that there was a parade on Saturday? Not surprisingly, approximately 40 per cent did not.

Sure, there are extenuating circumstances that led to the “short notice”, however, if you are going to have some festivities in town, shouldn’t the whole town know? Do we throw our seniors, under privileged and those who choose to go without social media, because they don’t matter in our community? Was that date so important this year that we couldn’t of at least had a little planning?

Biggar is a wonderful place and has wonderful exciting people who have ideas and dreams that they want to share. I would hope going forward that the town as a whole has information that can be put out to all people and not a limited few.

Having said that, however, I still must express my sincerest appreciation of the people who organized and arranged this weekend’s events.

But I look to Council and Mayor, who are elected, to represent the Town as a whole, not just half.

What is the future of the media in Canada?

by Kevin Waugh, MP, Saskatoon-Grasswood A free and independent press is the lifeblood of any democracy.

Here in Saskatchewan, the media landscape continues to change and evolve. For many these differences are barely noticeable, but for those who grew up in small communities it has never been the same.

Let’s start with the television market, which is dominated by our province’s two major centres: Regina and Saskatoon.

It wasn’t that long ago that Prince Albert, Yorkton and Swift Current each had viable bustling stations serving their regions. It was a place to

the

start your career and work your way up in the industry. Now, Swift Current is closed entirely and only a handful of employees are left in Yorkton and Prince Albert. Smaller communities now rely almost solely on the two major hubs for their news.

Much the same, the radio industry in the province has undergone significant changes. Radio still offers the most immediate information because it is live. However, for a number of stations in Saskatchewan, “live” is only 12 hours per day.

Many stations now either pre-record their programming for evenings and weekends or even simply reuse their already com-

pleted daytime programming in these time slots, while others switch over to satellite radio for night time programming.

Then, there is the newspaper industry. Postmedia runs the two biggest daily papers in this province: the Regina LeaderPost and the Saskatoon StarPhoenix. The third daily, the Prince Albert Daily Herald, was set to close in 2018 when the staff decided to purchase the newspaper and continue their long-term service for the community.

Print has seen the biggest shift to digital technology. Instead of getting the newspaper delivered to your mailbox, it’s far more practical on your

mobile device.

Even the StarPhoenix and Leader-Post recently announced their Monday editions would soon only be available online. While this may be more convenient to the consumer, it’s a nightmare for the industry. In terms of ad revenue, which represents a significant portion of any paper’s income, digital is a mere pittance to the glossy print ads you see on paper. At the same time, subscriptions to papers are at an alltime low.

The existential crisis that now faces newspapers is how to make up the lost revenue.

Hundreds of papers across Canada have

closed or about to close.

Our own province has not been spared. The Davidson Leader sold for a dollar back in December, the Kipling Citizen suspended publication 12 weeks on April 3 due to COVID19, and the Moose Jaw Times Herald, a paper with more than 125 years of history, couldn’t withstand the challenges facing the industry.

As a Member of Parliament I have the honour of sitting on the House of Commons Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage. This is a role in which my over 40 years of experience in the media business has served me well. When I look at the media industry, I see it

headed in the same direction as the grain elevator - into extinction.

Now, this is where the debate starts. How do we respond to this new reality? Is it the government’s responsibility to prop up news organizations that cannot turn a profit in perpetuity, or is the media industry in need of major rethinking?

The future of our democracy may depend on the answer to this question.

Kevin Waugh is the Member of Parliament for Saskatoon-Grasswood and the Chair of the Conservative Party of Canada’s Saskatchewan Caucus.

Chef Dez DezTHURSDAY, JUNE 18, 2020 on cooking cooking There is a lot that can be said about diamonds.

Not that they are as plentiful as weather (and we sure have lots to say about it!) but because diamonds have a lot more uses then most people are aware of. One of those uses is a upcoming wedding Bob Mason anniversary!

This being 2020, or is it 2021 already? Darn it all, the passing years may have improved my vocabulary but they sure played heck with my memory!

And because Phyllis Williams saw fit to marry me in 1949, naturally, seeing we’d come this far, we sometimes expected quite a pile of diamonds come June 25th!

As our anniversary approached in 2006, I understood that we might be given a pailful of carBruce bon, Pentontold to apply some heat and pressure to create some of our own! I dunno!

Y.T. didn’t come by all this knowledge by accident, he checked some of the local books under “W” and found that there was a whole list of wedding anniversary presents, most of which we missed out on! All the way from “P” to “D” . . . “P” for #1 meaning paper, and “D” for #60, Diamonds.

First Anniversary . . .

Paper: This suggestion for an anniversary gift was sure fitting alright because Frank, the South African War veteran on whose place Phyllis and Y.T. lived for years had insulated his homestead shack over and over with all kinds of paper (rolls of plastic hadn’t been invented yet!) and when we renovated it in 1948, we found brochures, magazines, letters and newspaper everywhere. 1948 was our first anniversary alright and we sure had lots of paper!

Second Anniversary . . .

Cotton: Y.T. isn’t up on his textile identifying knowhow, but he imagined that a lot of that three foot square cloth hanging on our clothes line was cotton!

Third anniversary . . .

Leather (well, Leatherette!): If I remember correctly this was the year that the guy stole my nice leather shoes, and also the year that the roof of the old Model A blew off on our way to church!

How nice can a fellow get, Bob Mason eh?

Fourth Anniversary . . . Nylon: After a few years of farming, Y.T. had finally saved up enough money to buy his sweet young bride a new pair of nylon stockings, and realized that he should have done it long ago!

It’s kind of odd the way a ladies eyes light up when she pulls a pair of brand new nylons over her slim legs . . . almost as much as a mans eyes do when he sees her taking them off!

So Kimdown Inglis the list of years we went. Wood (we added a bit to our house that year), from Brass, Glass, Tin, Steel, Lace, Crystal, Ivory, China . . . and missed out on most of them . . . then, all of a sudden: Silver!

A fellow can make wisecrack comments about all those other anniversaries as they pass, but when it comes to #25, he had better act a little more dignified, eh?

We played down the whole accomplishment quite a bit, but what modesty we did show kind of got overlooked when our family and friends showed up.

This was some years ago mind you, and all though one of the boys got a big laugh when he tried to tell folks that our daughter was 26, we were all still quite young yet, and really had a good time!

When we were kids, let’s say 10 years old or so, we marveled at some of the

Notable Notes

THE INDEPENDENT, BIGGAR, SK - 5

anniversaries our relations had!

Twenty-five years! Good Heavens, how could two people ever get along with each other for twenty-five years?

Y.T. can clearly remember being taken one hundred miles (a two-day trip at the time) to the silver anniversary of an Aunt and Uncle at Shellbrook, and gazing in awe at the engraved silverware they were presented with.

Years later and grownup, while visiting one of our cousins up north, on the table was an old dark silver knife with a flared Daniels “M”Calvin etched into the handle. Y.T. stared at it for a while, kind of wondering where all the time had gone!

And then one of the families had a golden wedding!

Fifty Years! Wow! How could anyone live that long?

As youngsters we had had visions of King Midas calling and dumping a wagon load of gold coins in their yard. But the bent old couple didn’t seem to want anymore then the log cabin privacy that they had enjoyed for all Kim Inglis that time!

At the time, Saskatchewan being such a young province, everyone marveled at such an unheard of thing!

But time passed, and year by year we were showered with presents of Tin, China, Pearl and Jade.

Gold never occurred to us, because we had farmed for years and knew that gold never showed up much around the farm!

And then . . . along came 1994!

By this time we had become well experienced oldtimers at the anniversary game, and of course said to the ones who congratulated us, things like: “Oh, you shouldn’t have!”, “Just for little old us?” et cetera.

I don’t think that we got much actual gold on our fiftieth, but our relations and friends gave us something far more valuable, the love and respect

that everyone wants . . . and needs!

The spoilsport who made up the anniversary list in our encyclopedia apparently didn’t think that there could possibly be a sixtieth wedding anniversary, so I guess we must be pretty near that end of the line, eh?

Y.T. hates to admit this, but some of his performances have sagged quite a bit over the years. His Don Juan days are almost done with!

However, as Dad used to say, “One is never too old to learn”. Y.T. read up on diamonds a bit and was really impressed!

Did you know that diamonds, being one of the symbols of weddings, are supposed to last forever? I’m not sure what the statistics are in either case but I suspect that diamonds will last longer than people!

The books also claim that diamond is the hardest substance known and can cut glass and even other diamonds! But Y.T. isn’t going to worry much until the time comes when he can’t “cut the mustard” anymore!

by Delta Fay Cruickshank for the Biggar Museum and Gallery I just love it when I hear from people who have read my article and will answer the questions I ask.

Evalyn Mann called me on Tuesday and filled me in with her memories of growing up on the farm 6.5 miles from the town of Biggar. Her parents were Lewis and Jesse Mann.

In the last article I asked what R.H. Virtue sold in 1936 and where his building was. Evalyn was able to tell me it was beside Leslie’s, but couldn`t remember whether it was on the north side or south side of Leslie`s. Well, Evalyn, we did some more digging and found a picture of the R.H. Virtue Building. It was on the south side of then the Ford

Response from last article

Drug Store, now Leslie’s.

It was where Nevada`s is now!

Ms. Mann was a young girl who lived way out on the farm and enjoyed embroidery to help the hours pass far from friends and schoolmates.

She remembers the R.H. Virtue store as the place where she bought her embroidery skeins, three colours for a nickel!

She also remembered where Mooney Hardware was at one time; in the Miller Block, where Pharmasave is now.

Mr. Mooney bought the building after the Millers declared bankruptcy. The Millers had backed their son-in-law, J.J. Maloney, the head of the KKK in Western Canada. Well, that didn`t turn out well, and the Milers paid the price.

Mr. Mooney had moved before, one of his build-

ings was on the east side of Main Street in the second block, the Independent building now. If you look up walking south looking east on Main Street you can still see the advertising sign on the building. Mr. Mooney was a valued citizen of Biggar; “has the distinction of being one of the town’s most substantial and representative citizens”* Ms. Mann could also remember the thrill of receiving the Eatons catalogue. She would pick out all the pretty things she would have liked to order. I can remember doing the same thing with the Eatons and Sears catalogues when we lived in Europe, our real connection to home, Canada.

Did you know you could buy a whole home package from the catalogue?

Do you live in a catalogue home? there are a

few in town. it would be interesting to find out

just how many we have in our town.

of countries from all over the world. Biggar became a town in 1911. Each doll represents a country someone left to make Biggar their home in those early days.

Since 1911 many more people have left other countries to make Biggar their home. We have a doll from China, Jewish dolls, ones from the Ukraine, Indigenous, France, England, Ireland, Switzerland, Sweden, Slavic countries, Greece, Italy, Germany, Denmark, Holland, the USA, and Scotland.

Since our town became a town, people have come many other countries. We now have people from India, Pakistan, Philippines, Bolivia, Columbia, and other countries I have not heard about yet. Have you come from a country you would like to see represented in the new cabinet?

We have dolls from the Philippines, but that is all in the new cabinet.

What country did you come from? Would you consider creating a doll in the national costume

of your country?

What should we call our new exhibit . . . 2020 new additions, 1911- 2020 Cultural Mosaic? What would you call it?

Alice Margarite Ellis July 10,1918 - June 14,2020

Alice Margarite Ellis was born to Jesse Wesley Donahue and Mary Isabel (McIntosh) on July 10, 1918.

She was the fifth child and only daughter.

Her brothers were Royden, Ken, Cecil, and Murray.

She was raised in the Allanbank district and attended Alert and Thirsk schools till grade 8 then completed her high school by correspondence.

She married Hugh Ellis on October 29th, 1936 on the family homestead where they continued to live and farm while raising their three sons. They were married almost 60 years.

They had three sons Wesley (Deanna), Thomas and Raymond (Butch) (Marilyn).

After retiring from their Bear Hills farm they moved into Biggar where she became a dedicated community minded individual, she was a member of the Eastern Star and Fortnightly club. They assisted in establishing the Biggar Museum and Gallery where she became a wealth of knowledge of the history of Biggar and area.

She had extensive involvement with local and provincial level boards. A lifetime member of the provincial museum association and she received many awards and accolades for volunteerism including the Queens Jubilee Medal.

Together she and Hugh travelled extensively from the far north to Texas and all over the world. They had fond memories of camping and fishing in the northern lakes of Saskatchewan and of the Rocky Mountains.

In her later years she had taken up writing with a series of children’s books and a biography of her first ninety years in which she was so very proud of.

In 2015 she was placed into the Diamond Lodge and then moved into the new Biggar Health Centre where she lived till her passing on June 14, 2020. She was born in a pandemic and passed away in a pandemic.

The thing she was most proud of was her family, her three boys and daughter in laws, the nine grandchildren can tell stories of how much enjoyment there was playing at the farm in childhood. And later her 23 great children and then her 18 great great grandchildren all of whom she took an interest in and treasured seeing their pictures and hearing their stories.

She also held dear her relationships with her nieces and nephews and her many friends of all groups.

Although she will be missed we can all agree that she had a great life that was full of adventures. In her later years her favorite word was grateful and she lived it.

Donations can be made in memory of: Biggar Museum and Gallery

WEEKLY REFLECTION

God in Higher Education

by Father Edward Gibney, St. Gabriel Roman Catholic Church At this time of year it is our â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;normalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to be celebrating High School Graduations and preparing young men and women to go off to University or College.

Of course, this year students may not be going to their various campusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and may instead be beginning their higher education on their computer, in a virtual situation.

But just the same, I think it is important to pass on a few words about antifaith promotion that happens in most places of higher learning. We live in a world that promotes secularism, the idea that true knowledge comes through the Enlightenment of reason alone and that religious knowledge is nothing but â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;petty superstition,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and unfortunately people of faith who go off to University or College are often accused of being less intelligent because of their acceptance of the knowledge of religion.

I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go so far as to declare that this is prejudice against Faith, but it is problematic to see that within institutions where the sharing of ideas is promoted as an absolute necessity, certain ideas are rejected and trodden underfoot.

Most interesting to note, regarding this secular desire to exclude religious thought from public discourse, is that in doing so they are, in fact, excluding the very basis by which the education system was formed.

In the Western world it has been the religious communities that have developed the educational systems and they, in turn, encouraged the exploration of new thought. In fact, the anti-religious bias being promoted by some people actually rejects some of the greatest thinkers of all time, such as Augustine, Dante, Thomas Aquinas, Anselm and John Henry Newman.

Anti-religious ideas also reject the basis of the human rights work of religious leaders such as Martin Luther King, another great thinker, who understood that the secular view of knowledge should not exclude the religious knowledge of the mysterious.

Once the Universities and Colleges are fully open again, many young adults will be going off to study in places where such restrictive and biased ideas are espoused, not only by other students, but also by professors, and it is important that those who are going to such institutions are aware that they will probably face such situations.

Keep in mind Psalm 119 which tells us â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have more insight than all who teach me, for I ponder Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s will.â&#x20AC;?

And so I will simply add that, within institutions of higher learning, all ideas should be shared and discussed, with respect! Those who do not respect your freedom to follow your Faith, are not being honest about the education system they pretend to be promoting.

May God Bless you and keep you safe.

NFL ANTHEM FLAP READY TO ERUPT AGAIN “Oh, say, can you see?”

“George Floyd’s legacy?”

By dying from a Minneapolis police officer’s knee pressed to his neck in late May, George Floyd will forever be known for sparking what could be a sea change in the world of race relations in the United States.

But since this is ostensibly a sports column, the George Floyd angle here will be about the National Football League, Colin Kaepernick and the Star Spangled Banner that is performed before the start of each NFL game.

Kaepernick was a B-level NFL quarterback in 2016 when he took a knee during an NFL exhibition game to peacefully protest what he said was racial injustice and police brutality against Blacks in America. The divide was immediate; there was rage on one side; sympathy and agreement on the other. It became a hot political football when the U.S. President declared that NFL owners should fire any player who disrespected the American flag by taking a knee during the anthem.

NFL owners, fearing public backlash, established an 11th-hour compromise: Players could stay in the locker room until the anthem was over if they felt strongly about aligning with Kaepernick but not willing to lose their jobs.

Kaepernick, despite possessing a skill level greater than many QBs who

had starting or backup • Norman Chad of the jobs, became a toxic name Washington Post, who around the league, and hates instant replay and remained unemployed. wants it eliminated: “I am constantly He eventutold: The ally agreed to genie is a settlement out of the with the bottle, NFL over his there is treatment. no going Part of the b a c k . settlement Really? terms was Why not? that details This genie would be is unsightkept secret. ly, unworNow, in the thy and aftermath of unneeded. the George Costco lets Floyd riots, you return demonstraany mertions and chandise protests Bruce Penton for any around the reason – U.S., Kaepernick is a hot commodity what, we can’t stuff this again.

Just of Blacks in America.

turing Michael Jordan and Lance Armstrong: “Now how about a documentary or two on people who become superstars without being bullies and jerks? Just to show the kiddies that it can be done that way.”

• Q and A with Alan Shipnuck on golf.com: Q: “I just moved into a new house on the fourth hole of a golf course. Is it wrong for me to tee it up first day while my

girlfriend moves all the furniture?”; A: “This is a very, very delicate situation. I would recommend you play no more than 36 holes.”

• Headline at theonion. com: “Roger Goodell Insists Martin Luther King Jr. Would Have Wanted 17-Game Football Season In Front Of Full Stadiums” • Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “Over/under on how long Conor

McGregor’s ‘retirement’ lasts: Three months?”

• Former Major Leaguer C. J. Nitkowski, on Twitter: “My wife had an odd way of comforting my son after a rough pitching outing yesterday, ‘Well, at least you still get to live in our house. When dad pitched bad we usually had to move.’”
