MATT’S COLLISION












“Experience
“Experience
By Jordan Parker
After two COVID-19-impacted years, the Kindersley Rodeo is back with force next weekend.
Organizers are excited for the show, readying to light up the West Central Events Centre, and proud of what they’ve pulled together.
“We’re just really excited. I think the community is really happy, as is everyone involved right now,” says Rodeo Committee member Steve MacIntyre.
“The cowboys are excited to be out-and-about, and we’re going to have some fun and enjoy the experience.”
The rodeo’s return carries on a long history in the Town of Kindersley; one MacIntyre is proud of.
“Rodeo has been around for more than 30 years. It’s been a staple since I was a kid. I competed once, and it’s always been my dream to be involved and create a fun time for people in Kindersley,” he said.
“To be a part of organizing this for the community feels great, and we’ve just been trying to make sure this is fun and profitable for the cowboys. We want to make it bigger and bigger as we get back on our feet.”
After two years of consecutive cancellations, MacIntyre says people are ready to embrace the Kindersley Rodeo and see it succeed.
“With the lockdown and restrictions, people want out of the house. It’s going to be amazing to see people smiling and having fun,” he said.

talent, which is why kid’s night is great,” he said.
The sponsorship and volunteerism seen for the weekend is unrivalled and shows MacIntyre this is important to people.
“This community is stepping up, and people are helping in any way they can. There was a real push to ensure prize money rewarded cowboys and cowgirls,” he said. “Due to sponsors and volunteers, this can happen. It’s a big undertaking, but it’s going to be a top-notch show.”
MacIntyre talked with a world champion cowboy and realized the event really meant something to people.
“We want to help people in our community and help those less fortunate. We also want to come together and give opportunities to young people.”

While they wanted higher contestant numbers, MacIntyre is excited about the future of the Kindersley Rodeo.
“This guy was excited to come to Kindersley and says it’s circled on his calendar. To have people in the business feel that way about our show means something,” he said.
Thursday night will see discounted entry for folks bringing a non-perishable food item, and Friday night is Kid’s Night.
“This is, in the end, a community event. We want to give back, and the food items will go to a local food bank. We also want to see younger
“We get there will be growing pains as we get back into the swing of things. No one knows what it’s going to be like coming back. But we want to have the best event and production we can, and people will enjoy what we have coming,” he said.

One of the many highlights of a rodeo are the jokes and antics performed by the rodeo clown, and this is sure to be the case at the upcoming Kindersley rodeo on the first weekend of June. Tyler Wagner from St. Paul, Alberta, will be clowning around, but he won’t be alone.
Tyson’s wife TJ and sons Trace and Tyler accompany him to every rodeo event. Some know the family as the “Clown Family”; the 11 and 13-year-old boys help out in the ring. “They come with me, and most of my acts involve them. They’re naturally funny,” Tyson explained. Both boys plan to follow in Tyson’s clown shoe footsteps.
Long before Tyson became a rodeo clown, he was a kid who was born and raised in Macklin, Sask. where he completed his elementary and high school education. He didn’t grow up in a “rodeo family”; he was a town kid who didn’t even own a pair of cowboy boots. But that all changed when he attended a rodeo with his family.
Tyson’s not sure if it was a rodeo in Unity or in Kindersley that first sparked his interest, but after one rodeo, he was hooked and decided then and there that’s what he wanted to do.
At the age of 19, Tyson took up bull riding and moved to Alberta in his early 20’s. He suffered multiple concussions throughout his bull riding career, was dragged by horses, fell off horses and fences, had his neck broken, and has a permanent hole in his trachea.
But he also acquired prestigious awards, coming away as Lakeland Rodeo Association finals bullfighter in 2006, 2007 and 2008, and the Wildrose Rodeo Association Finals bullfighter in 2008. He’s a member of the Canadian Cowboys Association, Lakeland Rodeo Association and the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association.
After twenty years of riding bulls and horses, he continues to do what he loves, except now he’s entertaining crowds in the ring with his clown antics. The Wagner clown crew travels to rodeos throughout Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and B.C. Their first rodeo for this season was at the 2022 North Battleford Kinsmen Rodeo on the April 30th weekend.
“I’ve been at it for 13 years; it’s the sport I decided to get into,” he said. “I’m not really good at anything else.”

Every clown has their own unique style; Tyson’s includes props like a t-shirt slingshot that he has been known to shoot at a kid in the crowd. Being a barrel man has also always been one of Tyson’s passions. His funny material comes from what he sees and hears, things people can relate to. “There’s no shortage of funny stuff happening,” he said.
Tyson’s boys started their clowning careers at a young age. His youngest son started before he could walk. “I dressed him up in an outfit like mine,” Tyson said. Trace was dubbed as ‘Tracer - the world’s smallest rodeo clown.’ “It’s all they’ve ever known,” Tyson said.
Tyson and his boys do a different act every night of each rodeo. “The kids kind of dictate what we do. On the way to the rodeo, we have a discussion; they keep me on the straight
and narrow,” he said.
The Wagner family and their two dogs enjoy going to rodeos, meeting different people, and seeing various attractions. But the best part of rodeo life, according to Tyson, is being able to do it as a family. “It’s our family time,” he said.
The boys are fortunate to be able to take time off from school to accommodate their rodeo trips and play hockey in the winter. Tyson works full-time as a manager/ice maker at the local curling rink during the winter months and works at the golf course during the summer. “We give ‘er pretty good,” is how Tyson described their busy lives.
In spite of their busy schedules, the Wagner clown crew looks forward to weekends when they get on the road and into the ring to entertain rodeo enthusiasts.

Twice last week, SaskEnergy set new daily natural gas usage records, and we can thank Alberta for most of our supply

Not only was Saskatchewan setting electrical consumption records during the cold snap of last week of December, we also set two consecutive natural gas consumption records, too.
plant, very similar to Chinook, is under construction at Moose Jaw.
CALGARY – Saturn established itself in the Viking play of west central Saskatchewan, then over the last year it grew tremendously from a large purchase in southeast Saskatchewan. It’s on the hunt again, this time back in its old stomping grounds of the Viking, picking up 4,000 boepd in a deal announced late May 31.
According to SaskEnergy in a Dec. 31 release, “Extreme cold weather across Saskatchewan this week resulted in record-breaking natural gas demand in the province. On December 28 and 29, natural gas consumption surpassed the previous daily record of 1.57 petajoules (PJ) which was set in February 2021.
“A new daily record of 1.62 PJ was set on December 28 and broken again on December 29 with total system delivery of 1.64 PJ. Delivery numbers for December 30 and 31 are not yet finalized, but are also expected to exceed 1.6 PJ.”
Saturn Oil & Gas Inc. announced that it has entered into an arms-length definitive agreement to acquire synergistic assets in the Viking area of West-central Saskatchewan for approximately $260 million. The Viking acquisition is expected to close on or about July 6, 2022 with an effective date of May 1, 2022.
The natural gas records coincided with record power consumption. On Dec. 29, SaskPower set another record in power consumption for Saskatchewan. At 5:27 p.m. on Dec. 29, 2021, Saskatchewan homes and businesses reached 3,868 megawatts (MW) in power use, according to the Crown corporation. The previous record of 3,792 MW was reached four years ago to the day, on Dec. 29, 2017.
Those assets are coming from Crescent Point Energy Corp. Crescent Point had consistently kept a drilling rig working in the area for many years, but the company put substantial chunks of its non-cores assets for sale a few years ago. Saturn had previously purchased the what they call their “Oxbow asset” from Crescent Point.
Saskatchewan’s power production has increasingly shifted from coal to natural gas as a fuel source. In December, Boundary Dam Unit 4, a coal-fired generating unit, was retired, reducing the Boundary Dam Power Station to 672 megawatts capacity. On the natural gas side, Saskatchewan has seen the construction of several new natural gas-fired power plants. They include the baseload North Battleford Power Station (289 megawatts), Yellowhead Power Station peaking plant (also at North Battleford, 135 megawatts), the baseload Chinook Power Station at Swift Current (353 megawatts) and peaking plant Spy Hill Power Station (89 megawatts). Another 353 megawatt baseload
Through the Viking acquisition, Saturn said it will “acquire approximately 4,000 boepd (~98 per cent light oil and liquids) of high cash flow netback production and over 140 net sections of land, strategically positioned in the Viking fairway, which boasts one of the most attractive light oil

resource plays in North America highlighted by payouts on newly drilled wells of approximately seven months based on a WTI oil price of US$95/bbl.”
All of this added natural gas-fired power generation has, in turn, driven higher usage of natural gas during times of high electrical consumption.
The Crown noted that increased demand from SaskEnergy’s industrial customers, including natural gas use for power production, was the main driver of this week’s record-setting consumption.
SaskEnergy said it measures daily natural gas consumption for the 24-hour period from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. A PJ is a unit of measurement equivalent to one million gigajoules (GJ) of natural gas. An average Saskatchewan home consumes about 100 GJ of natural gas each year.
The Viking acquisition bolsters Saturn’s existing Viking light oil asset in west-central Saskatchewan while complementing its core growth asset in Southeast Saskatchewan which targets the Frobisher and Midale (referred to as the “Oxbow asset”), further building size and scale for the company’s growing operations in Saskatchewan.
Transaction highlights
“SaskEnergy’s natural gas system design can accommodate additional capacity to manage increased consumption even on peak days,” SaskEnergy president and CEO Ken From said in a release. “Throughout the year, SaskEnergy employees inspect, maintain and enhance the system to support safe and reliable natural gas delivery in all weather conditions. In addition, employees monitor the system 24 hours a day to ensure sufficient system capacity to meet customer demand across the province.”
• Expands Existing Core Production Area: Significantly expands Saturn’s production base in its existing core production area in west-central Saskatchewan while also providing an operational fit and expertise with proforma production at the closing date forecast to be approximately 11,400 boepd1, an increase of approximately 52 per cent over Q1 2022 volumes;
This province is now largely dependent on neighbouring Alberta to fulfill roughly two-thirds of our natural gas needs.
When natural gas prices took a tumble roughly 14 years ago, Saskatchewan’s domestic gas production fell off a cliff. Targeted gas drilling went essentially extinct, with next to no gas-specific wells being drilled in this province for most of the past decade. Our domestic gas production is now largely based on associated gas production that comes with oil production. As a result, Saskatchewan went from being a net gas exporter for the period of 1988 to 2009 to a net importer that year.
• Highly accretive on a per share basis: The Viking acquisition increases Saturn’s 2022 adjusted funds flow2 (AFF) guidance by 18 per cent to $2.92 per weighted average share over previous guidance of $2.48. With a full 12 month impact of the Viking acquisition, the 2023 forecast adjusted funds flow is $223 million which equates to $3.98 per basic share.

• Doubles Saturn’s Land Position and Increases Viking Drilling Inventory by 250 per cent: Brings 186 gross (146 net) sections with high working interest (79 per cent average) in a coveted region of the Viking oil fairway. Adds 138 (gross) booked Viking drilling locations which are anticipated to deliver paybacks of seven months based on a WTI oil price of US$95/bbl and provide sustainable production for over a decade;
• Generates high cash flow at various commodity price levels: Strong corporate netbacks can be realized down to $50 Edmonton light oil prices, underpinning the generation of substantial free cash flow that can be directed to reducing debt levels and funding near-term organic growth which, given available infrastructure, will serve to reduce per boe operating costs.
• Provides robust corporate netbacks: Viking acquisition is forecasted to reduce Saturn’s corporate royalty rate from approximately 15 per cent down to 12 per cent, and decrease operating costs per boe by 16 per cent, which will enhance corporate netbacks. Saturn expects to realize further cost savings across transportation, labour and treating costs with the addition of treating capabilities afforded by the Viking acquisition.
• Increased Size and Scale: Expansion of the production base is expected to enable Saturn to capture operating efficiencies and realize high facility utilization (currently operating at <60 per cent
utilization) which can result in fixed and variable costs being allocated over larger per unit volumes of production.
“This significant transaction represents yet another critical milestone for Saturn as we execute our strategy of building a scalable portfolio of free cash flow generating assets that support both near and longer-term development, while also diversifying our production exposure across multiple highly economic plays to enhance our sustainability,” said John Jeffrey, CEO of Saturn, in a release. “This Viking acquisition allows Saturn to bring proven expertise in the efficient and responsible development of Viking light oil plays and benefit from additional size and scale to further improve our already low-cost structure and streamlined operations. Upon closing of the Viking acquisition, we forecast run rate production volumes of approximately 11,400 boepd (96 per cent crude oil and NGL)1, positioning Saturn to generate strong free cash flow which can be directed to debt repayment and future growth opportunities that can enhance shareholder returns.”
The Viking acquisition will be funded through proceeds from an increase of $200 million to its existing senior secured term loan and a bought-deal subscription receipt financing for aggregate gross proceeds of $65.0 million.

The Viking acquisition is consistent with Saturn’s strategy to become a premier, publicly traded light oil producer through the acquisition and development of undervalued, low-risk opportunities that support building a strong portfolio of cash flowing assets offering strategic development upside.
The company said this provide Diversified Play Exposure which enhances sustainability. It Improves the balance of production between the company’s core Oxbow asset and Viking asset. The Viking asset previously comprised 6 per cent of total production and with the addition of the Viking acquisition, the Viking will now represent approximately 35 per cent of overall production, diversifying our asset concentration.
It provides stable production with minimal maintenance capital. The company forecasts keeping Viking production flat at ~4,500 boepd by drilling 35 to 40 wells per year generating free funds flow2 of over $85 million per year with potential for growth. Saturn said base production is easily replaced year-over-year due to stable long-life assets and production optimization underpinning recent drilling. Saturn found compelling economics with enhanced financial flexibility – Robust AFF generation is driven by attractive half cycle economics with IRRs over 200 per cent while exceptional netbacks support payouts of approximately seven months. Reserve type curve forecasts remain robust with area break even on Edmonton Light prices down to as low as ~$50/bbl[8]. The Viking acquisition is expected to strengthen Saturn’s risk management portfolio, allowing the company to significantly improve its average realized price of hedged oil and obtain greater upside exposure in a strong price environment.
The company noted a low proportion of booked inventory and conservative type curves on the Viking acquisition assets present opportunities to leverage extended reach horizontal wells, pursue exploitation of the Upper Viking and implement production optimization and waterflood.
It also provides flexible marketing arrangements and improved hedge book. Saturn noted that crude produced in the area is sold on the Mid-Sask pipeline at Kerrobert, while gas is marketed under one year gas sales contracts. Saturn also realizes benefits to its hedge book as existing out-of-the-money hedges become significantly diluted through the Viking
acquisition, and allow the company to capture more of the upside of the current strong price environment.
Owned infrastructure allows for minimal spend with support for growth supported by sufficient egress in the area while significant processing capacity is available across the field with four operated oil batteries having over 12,000 bbl/d of capacity, two LACT pumps and gas sales connections with 3rd party gas plants in area.
The area benefits from responsibly deployed capital directed to abandonment and reclamation programs with limited inactive liabilities and a strong limited liability rating (LLR) of 3.50, Saturn said Go forward emissions reduction potential is possible through tie-in points in Hershel and Plato for gas sales, gas injection potential based on modelling results, and bitcoin and power generation with produced gas.
Pro-forma numbers are based on pricing assumptions of: a WTI price of US$95/ bbl for 2022 and US$90/bbl for 2023; an MSW/WTI differential of USD 4.00/bbl; an AECO price of $5.00/GJ; and a USD/CAD exchange rate of $1.25.
Combined, over 18 months post close, Saturn’s aggregate guidance includes capital spend of $155 million, production growth of 25 per cent and adjusted funds flow of $329 million2, resulting in free funds flow of $174 million.
On the back of the transformational Viking acquisition, the company intends to initiate an inaugural three-year plan focused on free funds flow growth, payout of debt, ARO discipline, leveraging strong relationships with key stakeholders, positioning Saturn to offer greater institutional appeal, improved liquidity, and the potential for future inclusion in key indices.
Highlights of the three-year strategic plan, based on the assumptions set forth above and management’s expectations (including lender and board approvals) include:
• $100 million in capital expenditures per year ($355 million over the life of the plan, inclusive of H2/22).
• Rapid near-term average production growth of 25 per cent from closing of the Viking acquisition to the end of 2023, underpinning a 2025 production target of ~15,000 boepd.
• Beyond our guidance period of H2/22 (US$95 WTI) and 2023 (USD 90 WTI), our base case assumptions include a flat oil price of US$85 in 2024 and 2025.
• Over the next 3.6 years, we anticipate generation of up to $860 million of funds flow2, inclusive of $106 million in H2/22, which in turn generates over $500 million of free adjusted funds flow2.
• If Saturn elected to apply all excess free cash flow to debt reduction, the company would have the ability to be debt free in Q4/2024, and to exit 2025 with approximately $200 million in cash on our balance sheet.
• 10 years of drilling inventory expected to remain in 2025.
• Continue our strong commitment to environmental, social and governance principles, including meeting our ARO obligations.
In concert with signing the definitive agreement for the Viking acquisition, Saturn has entered into an agreement with syndicate of underwriters co-led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Eight Capital to issue and sell, approximately 23.6 million subscription receipts on a bought deal basis
Saturn expects to enter an amended and restated senior secured loan agreement with its U.S. based institutional lender to provide addition loan proceeds of $200 million. The loan will bear interest at a rate of CDOR + 11.5 per cent and will amortize over three years, with 50 per cent repayable in the first year, 30 per cent in the second year and 20 per cent in the final year. Based on forecast production rates and hedged commodity prices, Saturn anticipates repaying the loan in full well in advance of its scheduled amortization payments. Execution of the further amendment is subject to the execution of mutually acceptable credit documentation giving effect to the terms provided in the commitment letter, and the satisfaction of the other customary conditions to closing, including the satisfaction of all conditions to the completion of the Viking acquisition.

Stuff a piece of facial tissue or a hankie into the bottom of a tall plastic cup. Turn the cup upside-down and submerge it directly into a sink, bathtub or backyard wading pool filled with water. Push the cup all the way to the bottom of the sink, tub or pool, and bring it straight up and out of the water. Pull the tissue or hankie out. It will be dry! (Remember, the key to success is to keep the cup perfectly straight when plunging into the water and pulling it out again.
Your kids will be amazed to see a dingy penny or copper pot transformed magically into a shiny object, while you get a few of your neglected copper pieces sparkling at the same time.
Mix together 1/2 cup vinegar and 5 tablespoons of salt in a bowl. Drop tarnished pennies or small copper objects in the bowl, and stir them around. Watch as they change color. Eventually remove objects with a slotted spoon and place on a towel to dry. Buff with a soft cloth.
Here's a bit of magic your kids won't want to miss. This slithery goop appears to be solid one moment when you shape it like a ball in the palms of your hands only to ooze out between your fingers, over your wrist and down your arm seconds later.
Make the concoction, play with it and then come up with words to describe it!
Here's the simple recipe for this sensory activity:
1. Measure 1 1/2 cups cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Add about 1 cup water and stir to form a thick paste. Add more water if it's too thick. (For color, add liquid tempera paint, if you wish)
This slithery goop appears to be solid one moment, only to ooze out between your fingers
2. Now, roll the goop in your hand to form a ball. As you hold it tightly, it behaves like a solid. Squeeze it, and then let it drip through your fingers to discover its unique properties as it flows into the bowl in ribbons. Or, place it on a cookie sheet, press it flat, roll it in a ball or let it go. It's amazing! ***

First up is 91-year-old Lois Smith, who started her career on the CBS soap “Love of Life” (1951) and appeared in such classics as “East of Eden” (1955), with James Dean; “Five Easy Pieces” (1970), with Jack Nicholson; “Fatal Attraction” (1987), with Michael Douglas and Glenn Close; “Dead Man Walking” (1995), with Sean Penn and Susan Sarandon; and most recently “The French Dispatch” (2001). Also starring with Keaton are Emmy winner Loretta Devine, for “Grey’s Anatomy” (2011), and “Hot in Cleveland’s” Wendie Malick, most recently in nine episodes of “Young Sheldon.” ***
Will “Top Gun: Maverick” finally push Miles Teller to superstardom? After 19 films — including “Footloose” (2011) and “Whiplash” (2014) — is his time at hand? At 35, “Maverick” is his best shot to break through. Teller’s personal life has come together nicely, marrying model Keleigh Sperry in 2019. His futuristic sci-fi thriller “Spiderhead” (opposite “Thor” himself, Chris Hemsworth), in which they play convicts who volunteer as medical subjects, hits Netflix June 17, and his 21st film, “The Fence,” which was to have reunited him with his “Divergent” co-star Shailene Woodley, was postponed due to the death of their other co-star, William Hurt ***
Oscar-winner Susan Sarandon, Bette Midler (who has three Emmys, a Grammy and a Tony) and two-time Emmy winner Megan Mullally are joining forces for the feel-good comedy “The Fabulous Four,” which will shoot July through September (with a mysterious fabulous fourth?). Sarandon is lending her voice to the superhero animated film “Blue Beetle” and

stars with Trace Adkins in the Fox series “Monarch,” about a fictitious country-music dynasty. Midler has completed “Hocus Pocus 2,” which will drop on The Disney Channel just in time for Halloween. Mullally stars in Hulu’s just-released coming-of-age film “Crush” and has the drama “Summering” due in August.

“Father of The Bride” (1950), which starred Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennett and Elizabeth Taylor, was reinvented in 1991 as a star vehicle for Steve Martin and Diane Keaton, and grossed $129 million. It’s being revived yet again, this time starring Andy Garcia and Gloria Estefan. But film buffs will hardly recognize it since it’s about a Cuban family, the intended bride proposes to the wouldbe groom, and her parents have a dark secret to reveal ... they are getting divorced. It hits HBO Max on June 16, and since all that’s left of the classic film is the title ... “Everything old is new again!”
