Excitement continues at the Kerrobert Courthouse!
BY BREENA HEBRON
The excitement continues here at the courthouse!
Since the opening of Time Capsule last week, professional conservators were contacted and have informed the Kerrobert Courthouse Restoration Society on how to proceed with the artifacts. On Wednesday, June 29th, Veronica Smith and I began the process of unfolding and taking apart each of the individual papers. The results were even better than we could have imagined!
Unfolding each piece of paper took an entire day’s worth of work. We began with the program from the Kerrobert Bar Association’s banquet. The inside revealed a legible description of the program, including the songs played as well as some of those who were attending.
Next was the piece
of paper that hadn’t been identified yet. We carefully rolled back each fold to reveal a list of names of judges, barristers, and court officials in the Kerrobert area in 1920. Included was my great-great grandmother’s name, Christy McCulloch, who was a Deputy Registrar. After this, we moved on to the stack of newspapers, a very daunting task judging by its size. We first removed the top booklet to find an envelope of coins sitting underneath. The envelope revealed five pennies, two quarters, two dimes, and a five-cent coin which was even smaller than the dime.
Our Google search showed us that in Canada, the five-cent coin was only made from nickel starting in 1922. After the coins, we were able to peel back the stamp, which was stuck to the newspaper, revealing a depiction of
King George V on the green background of the one-cent stamp.
Following this, we began work on the booklets, which were laid on top of the newspapers. One of the booklets was a prize list from the Luseland Agricultural Society’s Ninth Annual Exhibition. What appeared to be a “Chautauqua” program was stuck to the top of the other booklet. This made the paper very fragile, and we decided not to continue attempting to separate them. From the back of the booklet, we were able to see that it was another prize list, this time from Kerrobert’s Agricultural Society. Inside each of the prize list booklets were various advertisements for each of the town’s businesses, as well as the cash prizes for the winners of each event.
After these booklets, we made our way to the newspapers. The top newspaper was a Kerrobert Citizen issue from July 8th, 1920, filled with many interesting stories from the area. We did not have time to unfold the other two newspapers, although they appeared to be the Saskatoon Star and the Regina Leader.
Finally, we started working on the Wilson & Wilson envelope. We began by peeling back the small piece of paper that was attached to the front of it. It is believed that this pa-
per once held a list of town officials; however, most of the handwriting was completely illegible. As we were working on opening the envelope, we received news from the Star Phoenix that an article about the laying of the cornerstone had been found in their archives from 1920. The article explained the event itself, as well as a list of what was put into the time capsule. Everything on the list could be accounted for in the box, however, the Wilson & Wilson envelope was not listed at all, indicating that it was placed in at the last minute, likely that day. In-
side this envelope, we found a handwritten letter detailing events during the building of the courthouse, such as the date the sod was broken and the day the first brick was laid. We also found a blank cheque from the Union Bank of Canada, a very faint picture of what appears to be the frame of the courthouse as it was being built, and a fragment of a piece of paper from Wilson & Wilson, although we have not been able to locate the matching piece which would fit with this fragment.
The outcome of our day was incredible. The time capsule has
generated excitement in our community, around our province, and beyond. We have already had a significant increase in tourists and locals stopping by to see the message from our past. Even if none of the artifacts would have survived the 102-year wait, the laying of this time capsule would have still sent a message. It tells us that they were hoping and planning for our future, just as we should be today. I hope this event has inspired others to take pride in their community and continue the hard work of those who came before us.
CHECK IT OUT with Joan Janzen
Do politicians have a sense of humour?
Lady Astor said to Winston Churchill, “If you were my husband, I’d poison your tea.” To which he responded, “Madam, if you were my wife, I’d drink it!”
I’m not sure if Churchill actually said those words, but I’ve always wondered if politicians possess a sense of humour. By the way, its definition is: “a person’s ability to perceive humour”.
During a recent interview, Justin Trudeau described Canadians as being funny in a self-deprecating way, and praised Canadian-born Ryan Reynolds for having a “brilliant sense of humour”. The host responded, noting if you look like Ryan Reynolds you can say pretty much anything and people will think it’s hilarious. To which, the PM responded, “That is an advantage.” Perhaps Trudeau intends his advantage will be to use Bill C-11 to censor humour.
But meanwhile, Canadian jazz pianist, John Stetch, has expressed his personal version of humour by putting out short clips impersonating Trudeau. Not only does he nail Trudeau’s mannerisms and voice, but his clips are well written.
In the clip entitled ‘Trudeau Does Laundry”, Stetch mimicked the PM saying, “I’ve only made one mistake ever. Last week I left the setting on white instead of the diverse and inclusive colours. This resulted in a larger carbon footprint and an unsustainable use of energy. And even more tragic was the loss of one sock. And black socks matter.”
In Stetch’s clip “Trudeau Does Ukrainian Cooking”, he says, “I am now mandating that the cabbage be kept secure around the unified rice, which would otherwise crumble into chaos, necessitating an emergency act, or at least a smoke de-
tector.”
Meanwhile, an Alberta-based author has written a book which has rated number one on Amazon for three weeks. Derek Smith’s book “How Trudeau Stole Freedom” loosely resembles “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”, but is an illustrated book designed primarily for adults.
It has currently sold over 30,000 copies to customers in the US, Japan, Germany, UK and Canada. The illustrations were done by a very talented 18-year-old. Derek explained his rea-
son for writing the book, saying, “With everything that’s gone on over the last two and a half years it was really important to find a way to laugh. I think people have really forgotten that over the last few years with how serious and devastating things have been. This was kind of taking a jab at our current leader. It was never meant to be malicious or negative in any way; we just wanted to take a light hearted approach.”
“I didn’t think we’d get number one on Amazon,” Smith said. Sales of the book increased after Smith was interviewed by several popular social media hosts, including Viva Frei, a Canadian lawyer who utilizes a healthy sense of humour while covering political news.
Smith chose to go the self publishing route with Amazon and said the reception of his book was overwhelming. Copies of the book appear in the least likely places. Someone said they even saw a copy of the book on one of the desks while touring the House of Commons.
“We were setting sales records every day, then we suddenly lost 75% and are
stagnant,” Smith said. His book was bumped to number four, while Amazon’s own personally produced 3-book series promoted to number one, two and three. Positive reviews by people who had bought Smith’s book, were being blocked by Amazon’s sensitivity filter. An individual who had a review deleted said, “Amazon warned me about writing a now rejected post that mocked Justin Trudeau,” but there was no end of mocking, hateful and critical reviews of the book and its readers, that had not been deleted.
Shouldn’t we expect consistency from Amazon? If they’re deleting reviews that are mocking the PM, they should also delete reviews that demean the book, its author and readers.
“The book was written to remind people how to laugh. My goal at the end of the day is to entertain people,” Smith said, adding that he’d love to do a similar book on the carbon tax. “My message is to treat people the way you want to be treated. That’s what I think is important in this world.”
Please be advised that we will be closed for our summer holiday break from July 12 to 27. There will be no papers published on July 19 or 26.
Kerrobert Swimming Pool & Park Program
Thanks to funding from the Community Initiative Fund and many local businesses, we are able to offer the popular Park Program again this year. Although the funding was reduced, we are still offering the program Tuesday to Thursday from 1:30 – 3:00, free of charge. All instructors are certified lifeguards who hold their First Aid and CPR. Kids ages 5-12 are welcome to attend and they need to be registered for the summer as well as for specific days that only be allowing limited attendance. Kids are to meet in the Park shelter no earlier than 1:30 as instructors will only be in attendance at that time. Children must bring a water bottle and have mosquito spray on and remember that clothing may be damaged due to painting so dress accordingly! Parents or guardians must be available to respond in the case of an emergency and should be in attendance if there are medical concerns or at the very least, discuss them with the instructor in attendance that day. In the unlikely case of discipline problems, the child will be sent home immediately and they will be unable to return for the rest of the season.

Ilook out my living room window at a field. Some days the field is full of cattle, and in the spring, calves skip and scurry back and forth like puppies. Recently the field’s been graced by horses. “Graced” is the only word for it. Unlike humans, horses never seem to strike a bad pose. Even their rear ends look elegant with those muscular haunches and swishing tail. It’s no accident we refer to long hair pulled back as a pony tail. And whenever I see a woman toss her hair, in laughter or conversation, often in flirtation, I think how much like a horse she is, tossing her mane. I am reminded that we, like horses and cattle, are herd animals too.
And then there’s those muscular cheeks and jawlines beneath those big soulful eyes. In art school, we were encouraged to draw from life. I did my best to find critters, mostly birds and dogs. But when I drove away from the city and home for the holidays, I would pull over once I got to ranch country, sometimes in Merritt, always in Naramata, to draw horses. Their lean legs and barrel chests stirred in me a kind of infatuation, a respect for natural beauty.
In an essay called “Creature Comfort,” Marie-Lynn Hammond writes about how a horse saved her from falling into a deep depression. She writes: “I want humans to remember we are animals too and ought to stop fouling our nest. Because maybe you don’t need a guru, a therapist or a million bucks, maybe all you need is a cat.” Or a horse. Or a ride on a horse.
Yesterday I went horse-riding with sister Michele and my pal Avril in the hills just north of the dam on the West Flat.
I have not ridden since I was eight and got bucked. I wasn’t hurt, but I was frightened. And I remember feeling sad that the horse did not like me, or could not feel my awe and respect. Instead, I assumed, he felt my fear and would have nothing to do with me.
Later, when my family moved to the Okanagan, my grandfather, out of the blue, called my mom and said: “Aurore, you have to come out here and see this horse. You need to buy it for the girls.”
My mom rode horses as a child around Val Marie but hadn’t ridden one in years. My sisters - Mich and Jody, definitely inherited the passion-for-horses gene. And my grandfather was known in Fox Valley as a horse whisperer; it says so on his gravestone.
Mom took me and Jody with her to check out the horse, a feisty palomino. I remember being, once more, in awe. My grandfather was holding the reins, and as mom and Jody approached it, it reared up.
“He’s beautiful, Ed. But where would we put him,” she said. I stood back, frightened by its power and feeling sad, once again, that I was afraid when I wanted, more than anything, to bond with a creature so powerful, so beautiful, so untamed. I leaned against the Rebel Rambler, the car I would inherit in two years. Cars, it turned out, became my horses. Cars and bicycles were my getaway vehicles, my chance to fly and flee. Still, I wanted to get back on a horse. I knew I had a chance to do so when I ran into Carmen one day taking a group out on a ride. Carmen, the woman whose horses graze in the field outside my window, Carmen the chillest person I know, would be just the person to get me back on a horse. And what better time than now, when Mich visiting and Avril back in town. Both of them have been making noises about getting out for a ride.
I’ll call Carmen, and she’ll encourage me to ride, too. We arrived as the sun was making a slow decline. We were joined by Carmen’s eighteenyear-old son Arliss - brown as a berry after ten hours in the community pasture checking on 3,300 head of cattle, white hat and teeth glowing. “Did Central Casting send you?” joked Avril, who works in the movie business. There was no one else, just the horses and us humans and the sublime landscape of a native prairie that has not changed its look or shape or content - and I suspect its feel - in thousands of years.
And I am in heaven, with only an occasional jolt of fear when CeCe, my chestnut mare (perfect, I think, recalling my days as a blues singer when CeCe Rider was one of our covers) plunges into a ditch or a draw, then boots it back up the other side. Carmen and Arliss, a couple of vocational cowboys, give occasional hints to make the ride easier for both horse and rider, but other than that, there’s no alarm bells, no raised voices or eyebrows. So, I conclude that I must be doing ok.
At the beginning of her essay, Hammond ponders if maybe scientists will soon discover a “passion for animals” gene. At one point in her life, she seriously considered suicide but buys a horse, instead. “Financially, I’m broke,” she writes, “but I’m no longer wishing I were dead, and my doctor agrees he can now stop pushing Prozac.”
Near the end of our twohour ride, I feel a sob rising up from the eight-year-old in me. I hear her little voice say, “Wow, I can do this! I didn’t think I could!” My heart goes out to kids “triggered” by something as unchallenging as a mom telling them to clean their rooms. How will they ever know what they are capable of? How will they ever connect with their own animal bodies or the sensual world of other creatures? How will they discover their passion-for-animals gene? I want to say: Call me. I have a couple of cowboys you need to meet.
Kerrobert Chamber has a new focus
BY JOAN JANZEN
Kerrobert’s Chamber of Commerce, has not only acquired new members, but has a new and fresh focus. “Our focus is to highlight businesses in town, and do some marketing to entice new businesses to come to Kerrobert,” explained Kimberly Burgardt. Kimberley decided to become a member of the Chamber, and recruited other new members as well. Previously the Chamber had only four members, but now has welcomed the addition of many new business owners.
“We have a good crew, which is nice,” Kimberley said. “We have some new ideas, and some
money to spend.”
The money includes a recently acquired grant, which the group plans to use to erect a statue in Kerrobert. The structure will be constructed by one of the members, who creates welding sculptures.
“We’re also organizing the parade on Thanksgiving weekend, and are responsible for all the corridor signs, promoting businesses,” Kimberley said. The Chamber has a keen interest in enhancing the town’s appearance, and looks after the potted flowers in town.
In the near future, the Chamber will be featuring individual local businesses in The Chronicle, showcasing their owners and services and products. “We’ll
be introducing all the members of the Chamber,” Kimberley said.
Businesses automatically become members of the Chamber when they purchase a business license, and are invited to have a designated representative attend the group’s monthly meetings. The group meets on the third Wednesday of each month, at 7:00 p.m. at the court house meeting room, from September to June.
whole community involved, working together to benefit both the businesses and the residents of Kerrobert.
The group wants to get everyone involved, with all the businesses working together. “We’re creating a new facebook page, and are posting events we’re doing on the Town of Kerrobert website,” Kimberley said. They would love to have the

SaskAg Weekly Crop Report
Though there was general precipitation across the province this past week, additional rainfall is still needed in many areas. Some regions experienced flooding and drownedout crops due to receiving extremely high volumes of rain in a short period of time; producers in these areas hope this water will soak in quickly and the effect on crops will be minimal. In the west, where conditions remain very dry, the rainfall was welcome for crop land and pastures, although the rain did delay the start to haying season for some producers.
OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK - 6 AM - 11 PM

Crop development has been slow due to early season drought conditions in the west and excess moisture in the east. Producers are hoping for improved conditions throughout July to ensure their crops develop properly. The majority of crops in the province are in fair to good condition. Provincially, 76 per cent of fall cereals, 58 per cent of spring cereals, 46 per cent of oilseed crops and 69 per cent of pulse crops are at their normal stages of development for this time of year.
Rainfall continues to be highly concentrated in the east but there was some good precipitation received this week
in the west; more is needed, however, to ensure adequate crop growth throughout the hot summer months of July and August. The Spiritwood area received 86 mm, the Broadview area 76 mm, the Lipton area 70 mm, the Kerrobert area 31 mm and the Cabri area 23 mm. Many areas in the southwest only received one to five mm and the crops in those areas are beginning to show signs of severe drought stress.
Topsoil moisture ratings dropped slightly this week despite many areas getting rain. Crop land topsoil moisture is rated as nine per cent surplus, 67 per cent adequate, 20 per cent short and four per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as eight per cent surplus, 66 per cent adequate, 19 per cent short and seven per cent very short.
Haying operations are just starting in the province. Growth in the west was delayed early in the season due to drought; the hay crop in many areas has also not reached an acceptable height that will allow for cutting.
Rain delayed hay cutting in the east, although the crops in the region appear to be in much better shape since they
had adequate moisture early in the season to allow for recovery and growth. Hay quality is currently rated as 20 per cent excellent, 52 per cent good, 26 per cent fair and two per cent poor.
The majority of crop damage this past week was from heat, drying winds, drought, insects, gophers, flooding and hail. Gophers have become a serious problem in many rural municipalities across the province, with some producers stating that they have lost large portions of their fields. While the rain was a welcome sight to many this past week, it also brought flooding and hail which have left crops either drowned out or damaged.
Producers are busy trying to control disease in their fields by spraying their first round of fungicide on crops such as lentils and spring wheat. They are also continuing with herbicide and insecticide applications on competing weeds and insects in their crops. Livestock producers have started to get their haying equipment ready and should be in full swing soon.

Independent Grain and Special Crops Market Analysis
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the four stages of the market structure.
I wrote:
The most effective method is to follow the trend by identifying and understanding the four stages of market structure.
You see, the market structure has four stages:
Stage 1: Accumulation
Stage 2: Markup
Stage 3: Distribution
Stage 4: Decline
You can find this market structure in all asset classes and timeframes.
How can I determine the market cycle stage?
I get that question a lot.
To answer that question, we must know our timeframe.
You see, the market cycle occurs in all timeframes.
The longer timeframe consists of many shorter-term market cycles.
Multiple market cycles arise within each of the four stages.
Moving averages are effective at determining the trend and the market cycle stage.
When they are advancing, then we are in the Markup Stage.
The indecision of the Accumu-
lation and Distribution Stages is shown by the moving averages crossing over one another.
Declining and aligned moving averages mark the Decline Stage.
Perhaps, the most effective method is an assessment of your feelings.
In a rising market, Long position holders may initially feel Disbelief that the price is rising.
That feeling will shift to Hope and then Optimism.
Following new highs after a pullback, we begin to believe that this rally will last. The market advance continues, and Thrill sets in with the prospects of getting rich.
The market continues higher, and we feel Euphoria, during which we marvel at our business acumen and the wealth generated.
The price begins to correct.
We have become Complacent with the recent highs. We consider this a “healthy” correction required to move the market higher. It will come back. We decide not to sell until the price returns to the high.
The price moves lower after leaving the Distribution Stage. We begin to experience Anxiety. I missed the highs and gave back my gains. What should I do?
As the Decline Stage progresses, we begin to feel Denial. The market is stupid. Don’t they know that production is down? We look for reasons to support our beliefs.
The price moves lower. We begin to Panic. Maybe I should sell. Let’s give it one more week.
The price drops some more.
We become Angry. Angry at ourselves. Angry at others. We search for reasons to validate our inaction.
We reach our Max Pain Threshold.
We capitulate.
We sell. This is when the market bottoms.
The market moves into the Accumulation Stage
The price rises. We feel Disbelief. The market cycle repeats.
Do you have any Long positions? Can you identify the Market Cycle Stage?
How are you feeling?

SaskPower chooses General Electric-Hitachi design for first potential small modular nuclear reactors
It might take a decade or so to get the first one online, but SaskPower has chosen the reactor design for its first nuclear reactor ever. The announcement was made on June 27.
Following a thorough assessment of several Small Modular Reactor (SMR) technologies, SaskPower has selected the GE-Hitachi BWRX300 for potential deployment in Saskatchewan in the mid2030s.
“This is an important milestone as Saskatchewan works towards a cleaner, more sustainable future,” said Don Morgan, Minister responsible for SaskPower. “Today’s announcement further acts on the Saskatchewan Growth Plan goal of advancing potential development of zero-emission small modular reactor technology.”
The “300” in the name denotes 300 megawatts in electrical power production capacity. This is roughly the same size as SaskPower’s Poplar River Units 1 and 1, Boundary Dam Unit 6, and Shand Power Station. As the province is considering building four of these SMR, that would be a roughly one-to-one replacement for the largest coal generators in Saskatchewan.
As far as small nuclear reactors go, General Electric has probably more experience than any other company on the planet, building reactors to power the United States Navy submarine fleet since the 1950s. The second nuclear submarine ever built, the USS Seawolf, was powered by a General Electric reactor. Nearly all US Navy submarines built since the 1970s have had GE reactors, without any critical incident occurring during that time.
According to Hitachi, the footprint of a BWRX-300 would sit inside of a CFL football field.
“Using a combination of modular and open-top construction techniques, the BWRX-300 can be constructed in 24-36 months while achiev-
ing an approximate 90 percent volume reduction in plant layout. In addition, reducing the building volume by about 50 percent per MW should also account for 50 percent less concrete per MW,” says the GE website.
“As a “smart reactor” the BWRX-300 uses natural circulation and passive cooling isolation condenser systems to promote simple and safe operating rhythms. In the global race for advanced nuclear power, the BWRX-300 sets itself apart with its proven, less complicated processes.”
SaskPower said its assessment focused on several key factors including safety, technology readiness, generation size, fuel type and expected cost of electricity. The selection follows an independent and comprehensive assessment process that also included close collaboration with Ontario Power Generation (OPG) and a review by Calian, an independent engineering firm with extensive experience in Canada’s nuclear industry.
“GEH has been selected by Ontario Power Generation (OPG) as the technology partner for the Darlington New Nuclear Project. GEH will work with OPG to deploy a BWRX300 at the Darlington site that could be complete as early as 2028,” GE notes on its website.
“We are excited that SaskPower has chosen our technology as it looks to SMRs for the generation of carbon-free electricity,” said Jay Wileman, president and CEO, GEH,
in a release. “We believe the BWRX-300 is an ideal solution for SaskPower and customers that want to make an impact on climate change and energy security in a meaningful timeframe. Decades of design and licensing experience coupled with our proven and existing fuel supply chain position the BWRX-300 as the leading SMR solution.”
“Today marks the beginning of an exciting relationship between SaskPower and GE-Hitachi, a leader in the nuclear energy field that has the potential to benefit SaskPower and Saskatchewan for many decades to come,” said interim president and CEO at SaskPower, Troy King. “We are committed to reducing our greenhouse gas emissions while providing safe, reliable, and sustainable power for our customers, and GE-Hitachi’s SMR technology could play a powerful role in this future.”
Saskatchewan is currently considering the construction of four small modular reactors in this province, each 300 megawatts in power capacity. The total would almost, but not quite, replace existing coalfired power generation capacity, if all coal is to be retired. (Boundary Dam Power Station now is rated for 531 megawatts, Shand is 276 and Poplar River is 582 megawatts, for a total of 1,389 megawatts) However, the bulk of that coal retirement is scheduled to take place several years before any nuclear plants are planned to go online.
