LCB receives Jimmy Pattison Foundation grant
By Joan Janzen
The Luseland Bible Camp (LBC) is excited to watch donations to their Building Project double right before their eyes! Thanks to the generosity of The Jim Pattison Foundation, LBC recently received a matching grant donation of $75,000.
Marilyn Kirk, camp director, said LBC is receiving, both big and small donations to their General Fund, as well as receiving a more substantial amount of $75,000 to the Building Fund. “Each donation helps us do what we do. No donation is too big or too small,” Marilyn said.
She went on to explain, that they applied for the Pattison grant in January, providing an update of where the camp is at, what’s happening, and how the funds will be used. Several years ago, Jim Pattison had taken the time to check out the property at the camp.
Money given to LCB has included donations in memory of people who had lived in the community, donations from businesses in the area, and money received from caring people who appreciate LBC. The Building Fund is mushrooming, but they have not yet reached their goal.
“We have to have 80 percent of the money raised before we begin working. We still have another $100,000 to raise. The goal is $280,000,” Marilyn explained. That money will be used to move the dining hall/kitchen into the present chapel, which is a well insulated building.

“We’re a little camp in a little town, and costs are very high,” Marilyn said. “This is so much bigger than we could do ourselves.” Nevertheless, LCB is getting closer to the finish line, in their race to reach their goal, and they are starting to make plans.
“We’re talking with cooks now about how to make the space most workable. Having their input is huge,” Marilyn said. LCB is also excited to announce their upcoming Spring Fundraising BBQ, which will be held June 16th. There will be lots of family fun and food, and donations will be gratefully accepted.
“It’s been a while since we’ve connected face to face, and we are so looking forward to getting together to celebrate God’s faithfulness over the past 89 years, and are looking ahead with anticipation!” Marilyn concluded.

NDP haunted by hospital closures
By Murray Mandryk
The list of all the problems the NDP has in rural Saskatchewan is too long for just one column.
But its biggest problem boils down to one of credibility — specifically, credibility in accounting for its past and providing solutions for the future.
We were reminded of this again last week when NDP leadership hopeful and Regina Lakeview MLA Carla Beck — one of now two people vying to replace Ryan Meili along with Saskatoon lawyer and community Kaitlyn Harvey — raised the issue of emergency care in rural Saskatchewan closing on weekends because of lack of staffing.
(One supposes that on this list of NDP problems would be the reality that the NDP has not had an elected leader representing a seat outside Regina or Saskatoon since Woodrow Lloyd a half-century ago. By contrast, the Saskatchewan Party has never had a leader from Regina or Saskatoon.)
It wasn’t as if Beck’s points in the assembly weren’t good ones.
In fact, they were the very concerns raised to her
by rural municipal leaders, which is saying something.
Such is the Sask. Party’s stranglehold in most of Saskatchewan that many people — even elected municipal leaders — are afraid to speak up.
If rural people are complaining about something this Saskatchewan Party government is or isn’t doing, you know it’s got to be a problem.
Moreover, it’s not just rural residents fearing a health care disaster that is frustrated by the lack of emergency services issues.
Beck was also tapped into sentiments of “tired, burned out” health care workers feeling “disrespected.”
A recent internal poll by the Saskatchewan Union of Nurses suggested that three in five have said they have considered quitting the profession.
But the first problem for Beck and the NDP is what they would actually do that is different to address these issues.
Asked about this after question period, Beck called for more intensive recruitment of doctors and
nurses — pretty much the same approach Health Minister Paul Merriman had cited moments earlier and the certainly what Harpauer talked about in the March presentation of the 2022-23 budget.
Doctor and nursing shortages have been a problem for years — and have worsened in the past five years.
But the Sask. Party government is not wrong in saying that there is still far more of both since it came to power in 2007.
Moreover, the Sask. Party eagerly cites the 36-per-cent raise it gave the Saskatchewan Union of Nurses in 2008 and the creation of STARZ ambulances in response to rural emergency situations.
As Beck suggested, it’s still not enough to address the rural health care problems.
But she and the NDP should surely have to come to the legislature with solutions to problems like this.
In fact, it’s critical for the NDP to do this, given that a big contributing factor to all this was the decision of the last NDP
government’s momentous decision 29 years ago to close 52 rural hospitals and the Plains Health Centre on the outskirts of Regina.
“I expected when I asked the question today that would be the retort from the minister,” Beck later told reporters. “I understand that plays in the legislature, but it doesn’t play (for those) who drive up to their local emergency room experiencing symptoms of a heart attack and find out they have to reverse course and go down the road to another emergency care room that is open.”
No, it is not just an issue in the legislature. But rural people know the reason they must drive further for emergency or any other care because there are less rural hospitals.
New Democrats can argue closing costly hospitals was a needed financial choice at the time, but they can’t just argue that problem is the rural hospitals are gone.
The NDP’s problem? They need to propose better alternatives.
The question asked was, “How do we know China has free speech?” The answer: “No one says otherwise.”
Throughout history, leaders acknowledged the value and benefits of free speech. John G. Diefenbaker once said, “Freedom includes the right to say what others may object to and resent ... The essence of citizenship is to be tolerant of strong and provocative words.” He was the

to suppress and govern the alternatives to state funded media.”
While Bill C-11 is being reviewed, Canadians are being punished for speaking freely. A 29-year-old teacher in Ontario, who made comments in a private teacher’s group, is experiencing the limits to allowed speech.
She simply said, “Kids aren’t in school to be indoctrinated with critical race theory (CRT). Schools should be non partisan. They should focus on modelling kindness to everyone, and speak out against any form of discrimination you see. This includes the discrimination brought on by anti racist movements. In some places, it is now illegal to teach CRT without offering a balanced, opposing view.” She provided a link to a video clip from parliament in Britain, which gave evidence to her claim.
A few teachers submitted a complaint about her comments, which resulted in a month long investigation. She was also suspended for a week without pay. A full year later, the complaint has escalated. She is currently under further
investigation, with her teaching licence at stake, all because she voiced one well-meaning comment.
When asked how she felt about the investigation, she said, “It’s disappointing that this is being investigated. To me it doesn’t have any merit; we just have a difference of opinion. Living in a free society means the right to speak openly and freely; regardless if we agree or disagree, we should be allowed to speak.”
Rex Murphy said in an article in the National Post, “As an ideal, free expression has been ever present as a guiding star to the proper operation of any democracy.” In 2022 that guiding star is hidden behind a cloud of censorship.
Sixty years ago a Canadian Prime Minister said, “I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.”
Meanwhile, in 2022, Canadians did not choose to be governed
by a Liberal-NDP coalition; it was imposed upon them.
Diefenbaker also said, “We must vigilantly stand on guard within our borders for human rights and fundamental freedoms, which are our proud heritage ... we cannot take for granted the continuance and maintenance of those rights and freedoms.” Six decades later we are seeing what happens when people take those freedoms for granted.
As we near this Easter holiday, many will choose to celebrate by gathering with a family of believers. I pray we don’t take this freedom for granted, and more importantly we don’t take our Saviour and advocate for freedom, for granted. Have an awesome Easter, everyone!

Tara Neumeier Assessor
REGINA – Saskatchewan Energy Minister Bronwyn Eyre was sitting front and centre on March 28 at the Hotel Saskatchewan for the announcement that Saskatchewan, Ontario, New Brunswick and Alberta were moving forward on the next step of advancing small modular reactors for electrical power generation. But something else was on the minister’s mind – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s recent announcement that Canada would add 300,000 barrels of oil per day to our production totals, in response to the war in Ukraine.
For the Saskatchewan minister, it was a lot of talk from a federal government that has done everything it can to stymie oil production in this country. It’s a battle she’s been fighting daily with the feds since 2018, when she was appointed Minister of Energy and Resources. And the frustration was palpable.
Pipeline Online spoke to Eyre after the press conference.
Asked about how we can respond to the federal call for more oil production, Eyre replied, “The reality is that companies can only do so much. We don’t have nationalized oil or a command economy in Canada.”
A command economy is one where the government tells businesses what to do, and they do it. Think the Soviet Union, or Communist China. In Canada, governments regulate, but they don’t dictate.
Eyre said of the end of the oil downturn, “It’s different this rebound round, because of the headwinds we’ve faced since the last one. So, we have many more regulatory constraints on us. We have a looming federal Fuel Standard. We have Bill C-69 in place. And it’s had a real impact – the Saguenay facility, for example. Yes, it was Quebec, but there was also a Bill C-69 factor that killed it. And that would have been one of the great solutions. We could have used Saguenay LNG to send overseas.”
Energie Saguenay was a liquified natural gas project that was killed last summer by the Quebec government, followed up by the federal government doing the same this last Feb. 7, 17 days before the Ukraine War started.
Eyre continued, “And so, we’ve got to turn on a dime. Even taking the Ukraine thing out of it, and the tragedy of all that, and all it represents, even so, it was
difficult coming out of COVID and the perfect storm of 2020, with the OPEC+ price war and everything else. You’ve got companies which are still in quite a lot of debt, they’re paying down debt. They there’s the labour problem. No wonder there’s a skittishness among once-energy workers to come back, on-pause energy workers (thinking), ‘Is this for real this time?’”
She said part of it is a good problem. The Accelerated Site Closure Program was meant to get the service sector back to work, which it did in large part, and that sector is now, with oil rebounding, somewhat overstretched.
Share buybacks instead of drilling
In recent months, nearly every oil company’s earnings calls have stressed their focus on dividends and share buybacks, but that has meant less money for capital development, and thus, less drilling. On that, Eyre said, “You’ve got the dividend and the share buyback issue, which, a few months ago, before all the geopolitical upheaval and the price explosion, was much more of an issue.
“But you also have a lot of capital allocation on hold, because of the perfect storm we’ve seen these last few years. Now, we’re going into this situation, and there’s pressure to increase output. But, whatever’s been proposed by the federal government, kind of eking out 200,000 to 300,000 more barrels per day – it really should be two million, and could have been, but for all we’ve come to be facing over these last years. No egress. Keystone, dead. Energy East, dead. Northern Gateway, dead. TMX, to be determined? All of it.
“And we can’t do it by dictum, certainly provincially. And then you have the interprovincial issue. We can’t just tell companies what to do.”
She continued, “It’s interesting that, when the federal government weighs in, after just a few months ago talking about capping production, now they’re talking about increasing production. And all they can basically come up with is about 200 to 300,000 more, because that’s really all that we can get out, right now.”
And, true to form, the very next day after this interview, Trudeau, Environment and Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson announced massive
April Oil and Gas Public Offering Raises $19.3 Million
Saskatchewan’s April public offering of Crown petroleum and natural gas rights, held on Tuesday, April 5, has generated $19,307,203.94 in revenue for the province, more than ten times the revenue generated by the April 2021 offering.
The April sale is the first of six oil and gas public offerings scheduled for the 2022-23 fiscal year. The previous five sales raised $6.1 million in February 2022, $1.4 million in December, $1.9 million in October, $3.1 million in August, and $0.5 million in June 2021. With this result, public offerings for the 2022-23 fiscal year have already exceeded 202122’s total of $14,988,127.34.
Of the 208 parcels offered, 169 parcels received acceptable bids, representing over 23,000 total hectares. Four parcels received bids that were rejected as unacceptable after a technical review, and no bids were submitted for the remaining 35 parcels. The average bonus bid was $816.80 per hectare with the
highest acceptable bid at $24,318.44 per hectare.
The Estevan area produced the highest interest, bringing in $17,111,929.83 for 142 parcels totalling 11,890.306 hectares. Seventeen of those parcels alone received total bonus bids of $12,193,442.53.
Kindersley-Kerrobert
Only two leases were posted in west central Saskatchewan, and both sold. Those leases totaled 487 hectares, and sold for $171,955, or $353 per hectare.
The highest bonus bid and dollars per hectare received on a lease in this area was $115,471 or $509 per hectare. This 227 hectare lease was awarded to Teine Energy Ltd. and is located 15 kilometres southeast of Plenty, adjacent to the Dodsland Viking Oil Pool.
The next sale of the current 2022-23 fiscal year is scheduled for Tuesday, June 7, 2022.
Energy Minister continued
greenhouse gas emissions cuts for the oil and gas sector, and dramatic increases in the requirement for zero-emissions vehicles sales in the next four and eight years. The announcement came just days after a call to increase oil production by 300,000 barrels per day.
Eyre noted the threat to democracy caused by the Ukraine War, as well as “the issue of supply, the issue of demand, the issue of energy independence decisions that European countries have made.”
She said she feels companies are feeling the pressure and are aware of the issue, and that they’ve been approached to work with such requests.
“(For) companies, it is finally an issue of capital decisions and their shareholders. They have to deal with this emerging reality as private companies and, you know, TC energy does not want to restart Energy East. Kinder Morgan walked away from TMX. Why? We know why, because finally, you can only go so many rounds, it becomes incredibly expensive to their bottom lines.”
Eyre said if peace talks are not successful and the war escalates, “It seems to me the federal government could only directly intervene in our economy under some form of emergency measures, under peace, order and good government. Saskatchewan can’t act alone in this. We can have conversations, and we do, with companies about how this could look. Some companies have been approached, which led to the announcement last week by Wilkinson. But otherwise, we don’t really have a lot more egress possibilities. We’re already going at full throttle, here.”
By 2014, Saskatchewan had enough crude-by-rail facilities built to theoretically ship nearly every barrel we produce by rail, which would give use some capacity to send oil to the east. Most of those facilities have gone stagnant over the last seven years. But they do exist.
To that end, Eyre said “It would have to be federally mandated through some emergency measures structure. We can’t command CN or CP to do anything right now.”
And this is where Eyre’s frustration was apparent, noting that the province has been at odds with the federal government on many of these policies long before the Ukraine War started. “We have been so, so hampered by these policies.
“Imagine we’re talking about an increase in the carbon tax and the impact on real people and businesses carbon tax, increasing April 1. Do you see the Feds saying they’re going to pause the federal Fuel Standard? I don’t. And on and on and on it goes. Bill C-69. Pipelines. So, it’s easy to say as the federal government, let’s get things rolling. But there’s only so much we can do at this point, especially when you go ahead and kill LNG at Saguenay. I mean, they should start right there, get that thing going again.”
Eyre noted some of the ironies of the situation. She noted that Germany, for example, had a “uniquely windless year last year. Now, Germany is ramping up coal, Canada is exporting coal, China’s funding coal, and we’re mandated to transition away from coal.
“Also, this dependency now that they have on Russia, in some of these European countries, it’s a dire situation. Everything’s got to change.”
The leases picked up in southwest Saskatchewan are just south of these wells, west of Frontier. Yes, that speck on the horizon is your dog running away for the third day.

How to decorate your table for Easter
If you’re bringing family and friends together for an Easter meal, here are a few tips to help you decorate your table for the occasion.
TABLE LINENS
Find a pastel tablecloth or one with a chick, rabbit, egg or floral pattern. If you opt for a busy pattern, decorate minimally to prevent the table from looking overcrowded. If you choose a plain tablecloth, experiment with a colourful table runner or napkins. If you’re good with your hands, try folding the napkins to look like rabbit ears.
CENTREPIECE
Spring flowers like tulips and daffodils make great centrepieces. You could also place a few coloured eggs around the table or in small baskets. Don’t forget to put a chocolate at each place setting and decorate the table with candles and greenery.
DISHWARE
Easter is the perfect time to dust off your festive glasses and plates. Dishware with polka dots
and flowers or glasses with hand-painted landscapes and animals are ideal. If you have plates and bowls in a variety of bright colours, feel free to mix and match.
To find the perfect Easter decor, visit your local shops.
5 Easter gifts that aren’t chocolate
Do you want to spoil your loved ones for Easter? If chocolate isn’t the ideal option, here are five gift ideas to consider.
1. A BOOK
Give your little one a collection of Easter stories or a book starring a bunny. If you want to buy a gift for someone who loves baking, a cookbook is a great option.
2. A BOARD GAME
Pick out a board game that features rabbits, chickens or eggs. A game with an egg-hunting or seek-and-find concept is also suitable.
3. TABLEWARE
Easter-themed tableware is sure to please. For example, you could give your loved one a cute rabbit mug or a set of pastel egg cups.
4. A DECORATIVE OBJECT
Hen, chick and rabbit figurines and stuffed animals are great gifts for little ones. Additionally, these trinkets can be incorporated into your Easter decor.
5. FLOWERS
Bouquets of flowers and potted plants are simple gifts that show you care. Tulips, lilies, daffodils and hyacinth flowers are classic Easter blooms.
Find these and other great gifts by visiting your local stores.
Fashion tips for Easter
Traditionally, wearing new clothes on Easter is believed to bring good luck. Here are some tips to help you pick out an outfit for the occasion.
WHAT TO AVOID
Easter is the perfect time to dress up and wear fun clothing and accessories. Consequently, you should avoid putting on basic jeans, joggers and leggings or wearing dark and drab colours like black, grey and brown. Moreover, avoid layers of heavy clothing and bulky jewelry. After all, Easter and spring are all about lightness.
WHAT TO WEAR
Wear cheerful colours like blue, pink, purple and yellow. Pick out something playful yet stylish. For example, a dress, pleated trousers or a fitted suit are all great options. You may also want to consider wearing a floral-print shirt, tunic, skirt or silk scarf. If you decide to wear casual attire, make sure you look well put together.
Whether you’re having dinner at a restaurant, brunch at home or participating in an egg hunt outdoors, choose an outfit that’s suitable for the celebration planned.

Remembering Major’s Sask Homecoming
Major’s history book “Where the Meadowlark Sings” recalls Celebrate Saskatchewan Days which took place in Major, Sask. in 1980. The following article was published in the Kerrobert Citizen when over 600 attended Major’s celebration.
After many months of planning and weeks of work by local residents and organizations, the 1980 Major Celebrate Saskatchewan festivities were off to a good start with almost perfect weather conditions.
Campers began arriving on Friday for the 1954-1970 school reunion, and others were setting up that evening in campsites around town. Yards and streets were soon filled with eager and excited visitors transforming the village into a metropolis. These home comers arrived from the U.S. and almost every part of Canada.
The weekend activities began Saturday at 10 a.m. with a delightful parade.
A short program with Delmer Patton as master of ceremonies followed. Opening remarks and welcome were made by Mayor Milford Jamieson. Jim Garner, MLA for Wilkie, extended his words of welcome and commendation on behalf of himself and the Sask. government. Mr. Garner then introduced Mel Rumohr, councillor for Hearts Hill R.M. And John Chotowetz, councillor for Prairiedale R.M., who presented the Heritage Farm Homestead plaques to families who are still living or
farming the original family homestead. Recipients were Mr. Milton Scott, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Zinger, Elmer Minchin, Dave Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Moreland, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Fletcher, Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Smith, and Mr. and Mrs. Tom Webb. Trophies and ribbons were then awarded to the parade winners.
Joan Moreland, chairperson for the Celebrate Saskatchewan committee, presented a Celebrate Saskatchewan mug to Mr. Milt Scott, the eldest citizen in the district. A pen and holder set went to Ivan Hansen, George Gardner and Mrs. Mary Kohlman, who celebrated their 75th birthdays this year.
A souvenir Mayor silver spoon was presented to the first baby born in 1980 with the announcement that all babies born in the Major area until the end of the year will also receive a spoon.
The hall was then opened for all to register, purchase souvenirs and enjoy coffee with the senior citizens. Also, there to enjoy was a detailed map and list of homesteads and pioneers of the Major districts.
During the afternoon, crowds gathered at the school grounds to watch and/or participate in numerous games, the greased pig contest and the very popular tug-o-war matches. Then many enjoyed relaxing and visiting at the Bavarian Gardens held in the arena.
At 5 o’clock, a beef barbecue supper was served to approximately 725 people. The beef was prepared by the Coleville K-40 club, with the rest of the meal prepared and served by ladies and men of the community.
At 9 o’clock, the lively orchestra, “The Chokecherry Band” from near Fox Valley, got the dance off to a good start. It is estimated that close to 1000 people attended the dance, and many were reluctant to see it come to an end and leave the arena at 2-3 a.m.
At 10 o’clock Sunday morning, the school gym and hallway were filled to capacity for the interdenominational church service. Comments overheard upon leaving the service, like, “A beautiful climax to a perfect weekend,” make the work and efforts of local folks seem very worthwhile. Following church, a pancake and sausage brunch was enjoyed by over 600 people.
From here, some gathered to enjoy the junior ball tournament, others drove to their district of Fusilier, while others visited with friends and relatives in the district. Then the sad farewells began as everyone returned to homes and jobs.
I’m sure the people of Major will cherish the memories of this weekend as much as all the visitors. We appreciate your efforts to come and the immaculate condition in which you all left your campgrounds. Thanks for coming to help Major celebrate.

Saskatchewan Spring Runoff Report
April Update
The Water Security Agency (WSA) provided an update to its spring runoff report today highlighting higher than expected runoff, which is helping to refill many of the reservoirs that were very low following last summer’s extended period of high heat and very little precipitation.
The runoff began in mid-March in the southwest corner of the province and is progressing eastwards and northwards. A slower melting period with below freezing temperatures at night and cool daytime temperatures is helping keep runoff in channels with a low risk for flooding expected.
Higher than expected runoff in the Moose Jaw, Swift Current and Old Wives’ basins has helped replenish water supply reservoirs. Runoff in the Maple Creek, Battle, Frenchman and Lodge Creek basins, while below normal, is higher than expected, but the Bigstick Basin is still below normal.
On the Qu’Appelle system, ice in the channel is causing higher than expected water levels throughout the system. Ice jamming remains a possibility and WSA continues to monitor this situation. Diversions into Last Mountain Lake are challenging due to the ice and some flow is being passed downstream on the Qu’Appelle River to prevent flooding upstream of Craven. With the exception of Last Mountain Lake, WSA expects all the lakes in the Qu’Appelle system to reach desirable summer levels.
While the slow melt is reducing the runoff potential in areas where there is snow, a rapid melt could produce higher than expected runoff in some areas.
With still higher than normal alpine snowpack, WSA expects strong flows along the South Saskatchewan River and will help bring levels at Lake Diefenbaker up to desirable levels for summer, improving conditions for irrigation, recreation and hydro generation.
Further north, spring melt and runoff are in the early stages and WSA does not expect significant changes to the March forecast unless conditions change dramatically due to rapidly warmer temperatures.
WSA will continue to monitor spring runoff as it occurs and provide updates as conditions change.

It’s Lambing season at the Circle R Ranch
JOAN JANZEN
Your Southwest Media Group
It’s a busy time of year for Michele and Kevin Rast and their family at Circle R Ranch, located between the communities of Beadle and Netherhill. It’s lambing season, and it’s been one of the busiest times the Rast family has experienced during their twenty years of raising sheep. Before lambing season, the ranch has a shearing day. Similar to branding day for cattle, shearing day has friends and family gathering together to help out. “We hire three or four shearers who come in, and we sort and pack the wool,” Michele said. The wool is
shipped to eastern Canada, where it’s sold.
“We have over 200 ewes,” Michele said.
“We lambed out over 400 lambs in 21 days, through the coldest weather we’ve ever lambed through, with the highest amount of multiples we ever had, and with the least amount of manpower.”
Circle R Ranch has a large pool of manpower to draw from, as the family circle includes adopted children and their biological offspring. “We have fifteen children, but two-thirds are adults, and the baby turned 11,” Michele explained. “The kids are very adept at doing everything. I always
say it doesn’t matter if our kids never look at a sheep again, but it is such good training.”
That training supplements the education the children receive as they are homeschooled. Michele explained how their 16-year-old was on night check and told her mom how she had successfully helped deliver a lamb the next morning. “It really helps give her a boost as to what she can do on her own,” Michele said. “It’s a good way to teach kids teamwork and how to reach for skills that they didn’t know they had.”
The cold weather presented an additional challenge, but Michele
was happy to report that they didn’t lose any lambs to exposure. Many of the lambs arrived as quadruplets, triplets or twins. “When we bred last fall, it was beautiful weather; usually, breeding season is cold. Milder temperatures do increase the multiples,” Michele explained.
Lambs born as quadruplets, or quads, as Michele called them, become bottle lambs. She said her kids love having lambs that need to be fed with a bottle.
During the first 24 hours, the lambs receive their vital intake of colostrum, which the ewe stops producing after the first day. “Once they get that, the lambs just come alive!” Michele said. “They get up and like to shake, and then you know they’re good to go.”
After eighty days, the lambs are weaned; Michele said it’s a sad time. “We separate the lambs and the ewes, pushing the ewes out to pasture. The ewes cry for about thirty hours, and then they stop. The lambs will cry for about two days
before they settle down.” The lambs aren’t weaned until they’re fully on grain.
In order to protect the sheep from predators such as coyotes, Circle R Ranch has a six-wire electric fence and three stock dogs. The Rast family trains their own dogs, and noted that anyone who breeds guarding dogs has a waiting list due to the high demand. Michele stressed the importance of having sheep that flock well, since predators attack animals that are lagging behind.
Some time in July or August, the lambs reach the weight of 80-100 pounds and are sent to market. Circle R Ranch works with the Sask. Sheep Board to sell their sheep within Canada,
Colby Reschny, PFP, CFP
where the consumption is greater than Canadian producers can supply.
“We have found the ethnic market to be increasing, which has changed our marketing,” Michele said.
“It’s a heart-wrenching day when the semi goes down the road. You will see the kids saying goodbye to the lambs that are sticking their noses out of the semi. The dog follows the semi down the road until he can no longer keep up. He is saying goodbye to the ewes,” Michele said.
The Rast family also butcher some of their own animals for their own consumption because that’s what ranchers do. They feed the world, one family at a time.
