Cougar Comeback: Hockey team fills arena for fundraiser Lynne Bell
Observer Staff
The Carlyle Cougars filled their home rinkwithout even lacing up their skates-as they hosted “Cougars Night Out”-a fundraising supper, auction and dance, Saturday, June 18 at the Carlyle Sports Arena. The team, which folded following the 2012-13 season due to a lack of manpower, has garnered interest from nearly 40 potential players for the coming season. Local businesses have been quick to sponsor the squad, with PureChem acting as the title sponsor. As a result, the team will be named The Carlyle PureChem Cougars. The team’s board members are: Dallas Lequyer (President), Dean Lequyer (Team Manager), Tim Lequyer (Head Coach), Brian Hagel (Secretary), Deb Chalus (Treasurer), Todd Brady (Player Rep), Mike Brown (Marketing), and Kirk Himmelspach, Steve Mossing, Jared Riddell and Wade Robertson as members at large. “We’re off to a great start with the team because we’ve got a large, committed board, not just one or two people,” says Head Coach Tim Lequyer. “If you don’t have that, you don’t have the team. It lets them concentrate on playing.” “The player interest is great and it’s key to us to have local kids. We can bring them through the ranks so they have a place to play after they play midget.” As captain of the 1991-92 Cougars-who captured the Big Six title, the Big Six Championship and the Provincial Championship “C” title, Tim parted with a personal piece of Cougar memorabilia to support the squad, as he donated his Cougars’ captain’s jersey from that season to the evening’s auction. “The Durand family bought my jersey and Dean’s (Lequyer’s) jersey from that season,” says Tim. “They used to run the Skyline. They had them for 15 years and then they gave them back to us.” Tim’s jersey raised $600 as Jason Waugh purchased it during the evening’s auction. Club president Dallas Lequyer said that the community’s enthusisam for the Cougar’s comeback was eveident throughout the evening. “Tim stood up and told the story behind the jersey and I think it reminded people that this team has a history in this community.”

The Carlyle Cougar’s comeback is underway due in part to the efforts of the team’s dedicated board members.

Tim and Dean are holding Tim’s Cougar captain’s jersey from the team’s championship 1991-92 season, when the club won the Big Six title, the Big Six Championship and the Provincial Championship “C” title. Tim donated the piece of Cougar history to the evening’s auction, raising $600 for the club. “If this is any indication, it’s going to be a great season,” adds Lequyer. “We had just over 200 people, with about 150 for supper. We ran out of wristbands and we’d like to thank all of our sponsors, including Co-op, who sponsored the supper. We’d like to thank all of the volunteers-we had volunteers selling beer tickets, at the front gate and everyoneincluding a lot of our players-who worked the bar.”
“From the time we started this, the support has been unbelievable, and tonight is no exception. All we’ve heard about is how happy everyone is that we’re doing this. Thanks to everybody for supporting us. We really appreciate it.” To follow the Cougars’ progress, check out Carlyle Cougars on Facebook or follow @carlylecougars on Twitter.

Hometown Tour hits Village of Kenosee THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: CANCER, LEO AND VIRGO.
Week of June 26 to July 2, 2016 ARIES
You are very excited to be faced with new challenges. At work or at home, you achieve something brilliant that quickly leads you along the path to success.
TAURUS
You may witness a situation that leaves you feeling perplexed. Perhaps someone entrusts you with a secret that you are not very comfortable with for one reason or another.
GEMINI
Stress is omnipresent this week; try to avoid unnecessary stimulation, such as from caffeine. Some situations are out of your control and you need to distance yourself from them.
CANCER
You take on new responsibilities at work; this is going to be profitable for you. The adjustment is not easy, but your dedication allows you to reach new heights.
LEO
Reconnect with your deeper feelings and take steps towards savouring an amazing experience. Some of these emotions may lead you to a form of spirituality.
VIRGO
If you are unable to overcome certain emotions, you may want to consult a professional who can guide you. Any form of change is beneficial.
LIBRA
The foundations of your relationship may be shaken. You tend to make a lot of compromises, and your partner should now do exactly the same in order to save your relationship.
SCORPIO
Physical health is often connected to that of the mind. If you suffer from a chronic health problem, perhaps you need to look for the cause in your emotions or maybe even in the distant past.
SAGITTARIUS
You need to improve your confidence in your abilities before you can know success. If you give some room to your ego, your charisma will help you stand out from the crowd.
CAPRICORN
You need stability. If you are in the middle of moving, all you have to do is ask for some affection from your loved one in order to feel reassured.
AQUARIUS

Weather for the week . . .
Do not mince words when expressing your disagreement. You do not hesitate to denounce all forms of injustice, loudly and clearly. You may also address a large crowd.
PISCES
A precarious financial situation brings some anxiety. It is important to see things from a more positive perspective and remind yourself that this is only a temporary situation.

Three celebrations in one: Southeast Regional Library celebrates 50 years Lynne Bell
Observer Staff
“It’s really three celebrations in one,” says Carlyle Library board member and Cornerstone Family and Youth (CFY) Coordinator, Jenn Sedor of Carlyle. “We’re celebrating three different things today. The Southeast Regional Library is celebrating their 50th anniversary, so big congrats to them for being part of the community for 50 years. The CFY Girls Group is hosting an art show and sale at the library and we’re also hosting a LEGO show and some games at the library as part of the library’s Maker Stations program.” The Southeast Regional Library hosted one of many community barbeques to celebrate its halfcentury and Sedor says: “It’s a great opportunity not only to celebrate 50 years of libraries in southeast Saskatchewan communities; it’s also an opportunity to remind people that the library is more than just books. It’s also a place where there are a lot of cool new family activities.” “As our communities have grown, so have our libraries.”

Manor to host Canada Day skeet shoot for youth Lynne Bell
Observer Staff
The Manor Rec Board is hosting a free Canada Day skeet shoot for youth on Friday, July 1 at the Manor Gun Range. “We thought we’d get some kids interested in skeet shooting,” says organizer Rylan Weir. “It’s free for kids, and if adults want to shoot, we’ll have a donation jar set up, with proceeds going to the Manor Rec Board.” “Everyone who participates must bring their Hunter Safety Certificate or PAL certificate, too,” adds Weir. “Derrick BigEagle’s and Jason Waugh’s donations have helped to bring the (Manor) gun range back in the past year. At one time, the Manor Gun Club was a big part of the village,
so we’d like people to come out and see what’s been done and see that the gun range is useable again.” “It’s also a chance for kids who might not have a chance to shoot skeet to have the opportunity to do it. What better way for them to learn but in a safe, controlled situation?” “The Village of Manor received funding for skeet and shotgun shells, so it’s at no cost for young people who want to participate.” “Along with the thanks we owe to the Village of Manor, we’d also like to thank the Rec Board and Manor Fun Daze.” “This is just another way to let people know that there’s another rec facility in Manor.” Manor’s Canada Day Skeet Shoot takes
place Friday, July 1 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at The Manor Gun Range. Signs will be in place on the day of the
event. For more information, call Rylan Weir at (306)-577-8264 or Duane Bye at (306)575-8718.

Fleeing Fort Mac: One Family’s Story she was so worried. And by 2 p.m., we were told to evacuate. I couldn’t get home from work; it was so gridlocked.” “Luckily, my husband was with our kids, so I headed out to the weigh scales out of town. Brent and I made a plan to meet there and he’d bring the kids; but we lost cell contact after that. To make a long story short, they couldn’t even get out of our driveway, traffic was so heavy. And he had a half-tank of gas. He works for Nexen and they gave him some gas. Eventually, we met up at 11:30 that night.” “I was freaking out, because I couldn’t get hold of them, but I was so thankful Brent was home with the kids that day. I knew he would get them out of there, but everything happened so fast.” “When Brent and the kids finally drove out, it was late and it was dark. But the wind had died down by then, so they only saw embers in the forests. Some of my other friends had flames actually going right across their vehicles and they were forced to drive really slowly, making it even more scary. But all four lanes of Highway 63 out of Fort Mac were very quickly turned into four lanes heading south, so that helped a lot.” “People felt panicky-I know I did-but they didn’t behave that way,” says Velda. “The evacuation went really well and nobody cut each other off or anything. For something that happened so fast, you really saw people pulling together.” Evacuees also received aid and comfort from their fellow Albertans, says Velda. “On the highway, there was water, gas and food-all free of charge. And all from just regular people from Alberta. We were stopped and offered gas. In Grasslands, we were swarmed by some young people, offering us toothbrushes, diapers and all kinds of stuff. When we finally got to Drayton Valley, where my brother Terry and his wife, Linda live, I went to Mark’s Work World to pick up some underwear and stuff. They gave us 20 percent off and the staff insisted on adding their staff discount to it. When I was buying pet food, a lady literally took the stuff out of my arms and insisted on paying for it, saying it was her ‘due diligence.’” “People have been really, really kind, for sure. We are so lucky and we have so many people to
thank, including my brother Terry (McConnell) and his wife, Linda for taking us in. They gave us a home away from home at their house in Drayton Valley. They fed us, they gave us a place to stay, and they made it feel like home.” “And there are just so many people who were so kind to us,” adds Velda. “We not only benefitted from the generosity of strangers, but so many friends from Saskatchewan, Alberta, and B.C. all got in touch.” “And I have to say, all of my old Saskatchewan people were the first ones to ask me what I needed. I thought, ‘Bang on! Good old Sask.-kickin’ it up a notch.’” The Peaches were able to confirm via video link that their house was still standing. However until their scheduled re-entry into the city, they were unsure if their home would be habitable. “We were told to look for smoke damage in the roof insulation or if the bombers came over your house and dropped chemical, that kind of thing,” she says. “Our house was good. Everything was great. We cleaned for six hours, but really, the only thing was some food that had rotted in our fridge and even our fridge is okay. My husband Brent really did his job. He closed the windows and shut the furnace off before he left. We lucked out big time.” “We went for a drive yesterday (June 6) and an entire area-Stone Creek-is gone. It looks like something you’d see on the news from a third-world country. We are so lucky...” “When we came back home, I went to see my barns and they were totally demolished-all gone,” says Peach. “But it is what it is. If I had to choose, I’d rather have my house standing and that’s what happened. We’re so lucky and so grateful.” “When we came back home, it was super-overwhelming when we saw the firefighters on top of the bridge, but this isn’t going to last forever,” adds Velda. “ The news moves on, but the devastation still stays. I’m worried about people who have lost their houses and how they will be helped.” “It’s been a crazy experience. I’d really like to thank everybody and hopefully, I can help somebody else out,” says Velda. “I really want to pay it forward and help any way I can.”
For former Carlyle resident, Velda (McConnell) Peach, this photograph (left) was the first marking a series of events that would suddenly upend the lives of Peach, her family and their animals. The family has called Fort McMurray home for nearly a decade and their escape from the wildfires that forced the evacuation of the entire community showed the Peaches how quickly life can change and how kindness and generosity can be found in the most dire circumstances. Peach took this photo of the stables where she keeps her horse and says, “When we came back home, I went to see my barns and they were totally demolished-all gone,” says Peach. “But it is what it is. If I had to choose, I’d rather have my house standing and that’s what happened. We’re so lucky and so grateful.”
“This picture was taken by my husband, Brent from our house,” says former Carlyle resident, Velda (McConnell) Peach. The Peach family were forced to evacuate from their home in Fort McMurray, Alberta after a massive wildfire engulfed much of the city. The family was fortunate as their home in the Timberlea neighbourhood was spared.

Former Carlyle resident Velda (McConnell) Peach and her family were among the thousands who were forced to flee their homes in Fort McMurray, Alberta after a massive wildfire engulfed much of the city. Velda, her husband Brent, their son, Tyler and twin daughters Sam and Jami learned how quickly life can change and how kindness and generosity can be found in the most dire circumstances. And even though the Peaches got their happy ending-their house in the Timberlea area was spared-Velda says they will never forget the generosity of family, friends, and complete strangers. “Our house was good,” says Velda, who returned to Fort Mac on June 2. “Everything was great. We cleaned for six hours when we returned home, but really, the only thing was some food that had rotted in our fridge and even our fridge is okay. My husband Brent really did his job-he closed the windows and shut the furnace off before he left. We lucked out big time.” The family’s story began Sunday, May 1-two days before the massive fire forced the entire population of Fort Mac to evacuate. “On Sunday afternoon, a girlfriend phoned me,” says Velda. “She needed a boost, so my husband and I drove across to Mac Island to meet her. We saw a fire and I told Brent that it looked like it was heading to where my horse and my friends’ horses are. We drove over to where they are stabled and we saw the fire coming closer, so we-and a lot of other people- got trucks and trailers and got the horses out. I took three horses to a friend’s house in Grasslands, two hours south. We thought the horses might be there overnight, or at the most, a few days... We never imagined things would turn out like they did.” Two days later, Velda was at work at the city’s Keyano College, where she is a graphic designer. “It was a nice day,” she says. “There wasn’t even any smoke in the air. At noon, a few of us went to a nearby restaurant to have lunch on the deck. Before that one hour was up, we could see clouds of smoke. One of the girls went home to get her kids,

Parenting Tips from Regional KidsFirst
Fun with Silly Putty This is a great activity for your toddlers and preschoolers. It begins with making the silly putty together and then exploring all the things you can do with it once it is ready. Making the silly putty is half the fun! Once it’s ready, you and your child can use your imagination to create all sorts of fun games and activities you can do together. Ingredients: ● 2 parts white glue ● 1 part liquid starch ● Small mixing bowl with tight fitting lid How to make it: ● Mix glue and starch together. ● Let stand until putty is workable (you may have to add a bit more glue or starch) ● When you are not using it, store in air tight container (may not work on a humid day) While making the silly putty, talk with your child about the different ingredients and their qualities – touch, smell, etc. As you combine ingredients, talk about what’s happening as things are added. Once your silly putty is made, a different kind of fun can begin for you and your child. Use the silly putty to create your own games. The flexible nature of silly putty can let you and your child make different shapes and designs on a table. Or, if you are looking for a little more action, use it like a ball – but let it stretch out from your hand to your child’s. Don’t stop there – together come up with some of your own games and activities to use the silly putty.

Coping with dementia Our mother who has dementia and lives in a long term care facility recently went missing. She wears a wander guard but still managed to beat the facility security system. Mom had 2 wander guards on her arm when she exited the facility. She got a ride from the community where her facility is located to her home community about 50 kms away. Fortunately Mom’s road trip ended well. The person who gave her a ride did not know her, but was honest; the first resident to speak to Mom in her home community acted quickly
and called a family member. The family then got Mom, called the care facility and took her back to her home at the facility. This whole event has spurred our family to search out ways to ensure Mom’s safety should she manage to exit the facility on her own again. We want
to share what we’ve learned this far. The Canadian Alzheimer Society partnered with Medic Alert and has recently implemented a Seniors’ Safely Home program. We asked about having a GPS chip installed in the Medic Alert bracelet but learned that would be against Privacy. PRIVA-
CY BEFORE SAFETY? These Medic Alert bracelets are a great idea but the general public needs to know about the program. If you see a senior who appears lost, maybe out of place OR if a senior you don’t know approaches you for help and their request seems strange, look for a Medic Alert bracelet -- ask if they
are wearing a bracelet. The Alzheimer Society is a great source of information and encouragement, call them! We are also looking into a Bitfit watch type GPS for Mom to wear. She has figured out ways to remove her wander guard bracelet so we don’t
know if the Medic Alert bracelet or the Bitfit watch will work. We need to try though. If you have a family member with dementia and have found a way to keep them safe when they wander, we would like to hear from you. Contact: wandermom86@gmail.com

Quote of the Week . . . “I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.”
- John Burroughs
The beauty of the prairies
Last week I took some holidays and headed for BC. I have family that lives on the island and we discovered I hadn’t been out there for nearly 20 years, so I felt like I was due for a visit. They have a beautiful place, which is within the city, but it is adjacent to a protected green area covered with walking trails Kelly Running through the trees. Now although Observer Staff I didn’t see bears or cougars, I was assured they were around and my uncle made the typical joke of, “How fast can you run?” before we headed out, which I didn’t let him finish, saying, “I think faster than you.” I knew the joke would be that while hiking if we saw one that he just had to out run me. The trip reinforced something that I had thought about myself, I don’t really like trees. Don’t get me wrong they’re beautiful and amazing with how tall they can grow, how different varieties grow differently. They’re really quite neat. But, I don’t like them in the sense that I’m completely surrounded by nothing but trees. I love the prairies. And my version of the prairies in particular, there’s sometimes too many trees around here for my taste. Back home the most trees you saw were windrows, otherwise it was wide open. There’s something in that vast expanse of rolling hills broken only by a row of trees there or a group of trees here. And where I grew up that grouping of trees meant there was a farmyard there, it wasn’t just a group of trees like it is here. The water too was beautiful and we went for a short walk to a waterfall. It was all gorgeous. But for me it’s a place to visit. To go to and see, to admire and enjoy; but, the prairies are home. People come out here and wonder about the beauty of Saskatchewan’s southern portion, which we’re by the Moose Mountains and it’s beautiful there. But there’s more beauty in Saskatchewan’s south as well. I grew up relatively near Grasslands National Park, so there wasn’t much but grasslands and cropland surrounding me. It was windy there quite often, which I actually find kind of funny when people here say it’s windy because usually it’s just a bit of a breeze in my opinion. But, one of my favourite things on the prairies is actually watching the wind blow the crops. I don’t know if you’ve ever just sat and appreciated it, but tall grass or grain growing, it’s beautiful. The waves of the wheat ebbs and flows as if you were watching a small green or gold version of the ocean depending on the time of year and the growing seasons. One of my other favourite things to do greeted me the day after I returned. We had a fairly good thunderstorm. Now, big storms worry me when it comes to wind and hail, I hope the rain doesn’t come down too hard or fast in case of flooding, and I watch lightning strike hoping the ground is wet enough it doesn’t start a fire; but, I at the same time lightning storms are beautiful. The lighting dancing on the horizon, and without trees in the way you can see each strike from top to bottom. It’s flashes here and there, but as the dark sky lights up, it’s beautiful. We used to sit on our front stoop at the farm and just watch storms roll through. And you don’t get the full effect if you’re trying to watch that through the trees.

As ready as they can be The evening before my high school graduation, my class was gathered in the town hall where our banquet and ceremony were to be held. After doing some rehearsing we resumed our decorating tasks and as we finished up a classmate announced, “Okay, we’re ready.” We’re ready. I suppose we were, in the context that the venue was set up to welcome us Shelley Luedtke and our guests for our celebration. But were we ready for what it represented? My classmates and I were stepping into interesting times. Unemployment was high. We were battling racism and discrimination. There were great concerns about instability in the Middle East. Severe drought and famine threatened areas of Africa. We were battling diseases we didn’t understand very well. Our nation was divided between the political right and left. My youngest is graduating this week. I have been asked many times if I am ready. With a daughter, much of the preparation has to do with the dress, shoes, hair and make-up, and yes, we are good to go in that regard. But am I ready? Am I ready to see her and her classmates step out of high school and onto new paths? What are they stepping into? Unemployment is high. We are battling racism and discrimination. There are great concerns about instability in the Middle East. Severe drought and famine threaten large areas of Africa. We are battling diseases we don’t understand very well. Our nation is divided between the political right and left. Despite our wide-eyed and perhaps idealistic intent to do our best to change things, we keep handing each generation’s children the same slate of issues and an even more complex landscape to navigate.

father is so consumed with protecting his son he promises he will never let anything happen to him, but is reminded that would mean nothing would ever happen to him. We want many things to happen for our children, but of course we’re hoping for all good things. Knowing that won’t always be the case, we may worry they are not yet ready. Neither were we. So the only option is to set the course and get on with it. It is daunting, but we did it…and so will they. As each generation steps up, they build on what was started in the past, because their abilities, eagerness and skill set are one thing, but the modelling they received is the other. So let’s give ourselves a little credit. Every time they saw us respond to a cause with our time and resources they learned the importance of giving. Every time they saw us up in the stands cheering them on they learned the importance of encouragement. Every time we worshipped with them they learned the importance of faith. Every time we had expectations of them they learned the importance of responsibility. Every time we made mistakes they learned the importance of forgiveness and resolve. Every time we listened to what they had to say they learned they were valued. Every time we hugged them and let them know they were loved they learned what they needed to get ready to face the next thing that was to come along. Yes, they will stumble…mistakes will happen. Maybe even some big ones. But they’ll get up again and carry on. They’ll find a way unique to them. They may even make headway on some of the issues we are still struggling to confront. So, plug in the curling irons, step into those shoes, grab some tissue (because you just might need it), and let’s take our place in the seats to watch them walk across that stage. Because they’re ready. And so are we. That’s my outlook.

Seeing things differently . . .
O Canada? Lynne Bell
Observer Staff
You’d have to have the proverbial heart of stone if you weren’t moved by Liberal MP Mauril Belanger’s valiant and determined attempt to bring his private member’s bill before the House of Commons. The Member of Parliament for Ottawa-Vanier has been stricken with ALS-amyotropic lateral sclerosis-a progessive and fatal neurological disease (also known as Lou Gehring’s disease). As I write this, the bill he worked to pass was a request to change some of the English lyrics of ‘O Canada’ in an effort to make this country’s national anthem gender-neutral. In fact, the entire process is now a done deal. Bill C-210 has changed the lyrics “in all thy sons command” to “in all of us command.” It must be noted that this is not the first time the anthem’s lyrics have been altered. During the First World War I era, the lyrics were changed from “thou dost in us command” to “in all thy sons command.” This was done for poetic, rather than political purposes, however. Previous politically-driven attempts to change the lyrics of ‘O Canada’ have not succeeded, including those of NDP MPs Svend Robinson and Libby Davies, who, like Belanger, proposed changes to Canada’s national anthem in the interests of inclusivity. Belanger has said (via iPad-as he has lost the ability to speak): “Changing only two words... gives Canada an inclusive anthem that respects who we were and what we have become as a country.” “As Canadians, we continually test our assumpations, and indeed our symbols, for their suitability. Our anthem can reflect our roots and our growth.” Not surprisingly, some of his colleagues in the House of Commons disagree. Citing correspondence from his constituents, Conservative MP Peter Van Loan said, “These are views that matter, whether you agree or disagree. When it comes to national symbols, when it comes to these things that make us what we are, historically we have taken them from the people, not given them to the people.” In the face of Belanger’s rapidly and tragically deteriorating health, many of his collegues within the House of Commons felt a sense of urgency and wanted to pass the ailing MP’s private member’s bill as quickly as possible, so that its author could witness its successful passage through Parliament. Naturally, there are others who were equally as determined to block Belanger’s bill. The entire process resulted in the nation’s representatives engaging in behavior which ranged from the noble to the nasty, as they either attempted to push the bill through in haste, or halt its progress entirely. Belanger’s bill passed with a majority vote, with some MPs stating that an updated version of Canada’s national anthem was inevitable. But perhaps the larger question is: Why weren’t the citizens of this country consulted on this change? As tragic and as personal as Belanger’s situation is, is it justification for how decisions are made in the House of Commons? By all accounts, Mauril Belanger is a respected Member of Parliament, who has served admirably, and continues to do with great courage and fortitude, and under the most tragic of circumstances. Instead of emotionally and hurriedly pushing proposed Bill C-210 through or equally, trying to slow its progress via unparliamentary behavior, would it not have been a more fitting tribute to the Member of Parliament for Ottawa-Vanier for his fellow MPs to pay respect to him by engaging in a full and thoughtful debate which includes the views of all Canadian citizens? In this case, the parliamentary process is as important as the result.
Editor’s Note . . . The views expressed in “Seeing things differently” are for discussion purposes and are not necessarily the views of the writers.
Softening my stance on changing “O Canada” Kelly Running Observer Staff
With Canada Day just around the corner Lynne and I decided to look at a hot topic in Canada recently, that’s right, we’re looking at the change of the Canadian national anthem. Personally, I like traditions and a national anthem is part of our identity… plus it would take me forever to remember a new version… but… what is the other side saying? I was reading through a variety of articles and others do make a solid claim for it to be changed. The argument that stuck out to me was that if your national anthem isn’t inclusive, then how inclusive is your national identity; something that the majority of Canadians pride themselves on. The proposed change would be to move from the line “in all thy sons command” and replace it with “in all of us command.” The country wants to use it as a strong symbol of equality. The discussion jumps back to the Liberal government drawing attention to gender inequality with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appointing a cabinet that is 50 percent women: “Because it’s 2016.” Technically the Liberals were voted in with a majority government, which allows them to operate the country how they like with a little input here and there from Conservatives and New Democrats. This means that whether we’re happy with the changes or not it’s their up to their discretion. Reading further I discovered the House voted 225 to 74 in support of the bill to change the lyrics, which means the majority of Canadian representatives felt need to change it. Now, being the bit of a history buff I began reading about the national anthem, I knew it was originally written in French and assumed the English version would have been a translation of it. But, this would have been Thomas B. Richardson’s lyrics published in 1906 by Whaley, Royce & Co.
Through the Lens Moose Mountain Photography Club
However, there were a few different English versions created by various individuals. The one that caught the attention of the government, however, was Robert Stanley Weir’s 1908 composition, which wasn’t officially accepted until the 1960s! In 1964 the federal government had the Senate and House of Commons work jointly together to look at “God Save the Queen” and “O Canada” as national anthems because at the time Canada was not yet a country on its own. That didn’t happen until 1967, but knowing that was coming the government , in 1966, decided that “O Canada” would be the national anthem and “God Save the Queen” would be the Royal anthem. This was made official in 1967. They then looked at Weir’s version and decided to change a few lines: “And stand on guard, O Canada” to “From far and wide, O Canada,” “O Canada, glorious and free” to “God keep our land, glorious and free,” AND “True patriot love thou dost in us command” to “True patriot love in all our sons command.” Yup, the federal government changed the lyric in the 60s within the English version that had become popular in 1908. So, is it really tradition? The national anthem is as old as Canada, technically, but the country has been around a lot longer. We just had an amicable end to British rule, which took a little longer than say the Americans splitting from the U.K. By switching the lyrics it actually comes more in line with the 1908 version of the anthem, which used gender neutral wording. It’s a little thing. One that has some people up in arms, but it’s one that at the end of the day, sorry but, it’s one that really doesn’t affect us a whole lot. The new lyrics sound nearly identical while singing it… and how often do you really sing “O Canada” anyway? If you’re like me and am not fond of your singing voice you tend to let others belt it out if anyone is singing at all. There’s been many times that I’ve simply heard only the instruments. So it’s more of a symbolic change than anything.

Estevan 2016 Saskatchewan Summer Games torch bearers announced
June 13, 2016 (Estevan, SK) – The community of southeastern Saskatchewan was asked to recognize the youth of our community by nominating those they felt should be part of the energy of the Games. In response to that nomination process, 37 youth have been selected to carry the torch on July 24, 2016 that will ignite the Games. The Torch Relay is a ceremonial event where the flame, which will burn in the Games cauldron (provided by SaskEnergy) throughout the duration of the 2016 Saskatchewan Summer Games, and will be carried over an 8.8 kilometre route through the city by the 37 torch bearers. The Torch Relay will travel throughout the city so spectators can view the flame and the host committee urges all residents to come out and support the youth involved. The relay will commence at the Court House and end with the Games cauldron being lit at the opening ceremonies when the 2016 Saskatchewan Summer Games are officially opened! “The goal of the Torch Relay is to increase public awareness and participation in the Games. The lighting of the Games torch is very symbolic in that it officially signifies the opening of the multi-sport games, uniting all nine Districts in the province,” said Terina Shaw, committee chair of the Estevan 2016 Torch Relay. “The 37 youth who have been selected to carry the torch are all remarkable people, and truly worthy of representing the energy of the Games. It has been a privilege for me as the organizer of the relay to meet so many outstanding citizens of our community.” The Torch Relay has been presented by SaskEnergy as part of their commitment to the games since 1998. Not only has SaskEnergy been the official sponsor of the Torch Relay they have been the Champion of Volunteers for ten years and play a key role in the execution of the relay. The selection process for Torch Bearers is up to the host community. The nomination process utilized by the Estevan 2016 Games committee was applauded by SaskEnergy. “The torch and flame are not just symbols of the Summer Games themselves, but symbols of the

NHL, NFL eye future in Las Vegas By Bruce Penton Professional sports leagues are on the verge of gambling on success in Las Vegas. The National Hockey League was expected to name the Nevada city as its first expansion team since 2000 — at an expansion fee cost of $500 million — and owner Mark Davis of the Oakland Raiders reportedly wants to move his National Football League franchise to Las Vegas. You know what might be next? People might start making legal wagers on NFL and NHL games. OK, let’s dispense with the sarcasm and get down to business. Whereas the gambling concern might have been a legitimate reason for pro sports teams to stay out of Nevada’s Sin City 20 years ago, things have changed drastically in the last two decades. Bets — legal and not-solegal — can be placed almost anywhere. Gambling is pervasive, with online sites offering games of chance and point-spread wagers available on almost any organized game in the world. Now that daily fantasy sites like Draft Kings and Fan Duel have become established, the number of pro sports gamblers has mushroomed. How having a sports team based in Las Vegas would have a negative effect is beyond the imagination of most NFL owners, who apparently are giving Davis’s hopes to move his franchise strong consideration. While an NHL facility, the T-Mobile Arena, recently opened behind the New York New York casino, a $1.4 billion football stadium, with a hotel-room tax paying for the bulk of it, is still in the planning stages. Millions of people with gobs of money visit Las Vegas every year and the stadium would likely always sell out for an NFL game, especially if 75 per cent or more of the patrons had money riding on the outcome. Gambling and the NFL go hand-in-hand — one of the biggest reasons for its immense popularity — and about the only concern with having pro sports teams in Las Vegas would be the possibility of organized

crime trying to influence outcomes for gambling reasons. But that possibility already exists — all over the United States. In fact, wagering on sports events is probably more closely regulated in Las Vegas than elsewhere in the U.S. “Future sports betting, when it spreads across the United States, will be modeled after Nevada,” Jay Rood of MGM resorts told reporter Lance Pugmire of the L.A. Times. “We’re one of the most highly regulated industries in America. I’d put us up against any banking or Wall Street regulations. That stringent. And I would think the leagues will embrace that. We want the same thing the leagues want: games played with integrity.” • Nats manager Dusty Baker, to Reuters, on 6-1, 257-pound catcher Wilson Ramos: “He’s not called The Buffalo for nothing. I’ve never seen a skinny buffalo. Unless he’s real sick.” • Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “Jose Canseco tweeted that when a ‘yellow stone’ park volcano blows it’ll destroy the continental U.S. I don’t know about you, but I prefer to get my scientific forecasts from people who know that ‘Yellowstone’ is one word.” • Bob Molinaro of pilotonline.com, with a recollection about a former Yankee slugger: “Mickey Mantle said when Pete Rose broke Ty Cobb’s record: “If I’d a hit that many singles, I’d a wore a dress.” • Norman Chad of the Washington Post, on the Kardashians girls’ penchant for dating professional athletes: “Repeat-
edly, the Kardashians have sullied our finest in cleats and Nikes. They have sidetracked more NBA careers than cocaine.” • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “The Detroit Lions plan to add a sideline cheer staff this season because, they say, ‘the Ford Family is unwavering in their commitment to improving the Detroit Lions fan experience.’ Hey, don’t laugh: It was either that or try to field a winning football team.” • Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “Will Power won last week’s IndyCar race. Who was second? Dee Termination?” • Molinaro again: “Saw a headline this week that read, ‘NBC Sports Network to present 330 hours of Rio programming this August.’ To most people, this may look like a simple promo. To me, it’s a mental health warning.” • RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “Allow me to answer the question: Who is pro baseball’s true all-time hits leader? Ichirose.” • Headline at TheKicker.com: “Pete Rose: ‘I’m by far all-time hit king if you include blackjack.’ ” • Currie again: “According to a recent poll, Draymond Green was the Warrior that Cavaliers fans hated most — by a wide margin. Title that one: Not Everybody Loves Draymond.” • Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “Russia’s track team is banned from the Rio Olympics due to doping.

“
The idea of the (1st Annual Round-Up Rodeo) was to host an event that the whole family can participate in and also to hold some events that participants don’t often get a chance to do, if they’re non-CAA (pro-rodeo) competitors. - Organizer Natasha Romanow

”
Cooper Englot, 4 of Candiac, Sask. was happy to check out the horses and livestock at the 1st Annual Round-Up Rodeo, Sunday, June 12, in Kennedy.
Seven-year-old competitor Shayda King-pictured here with her pony, Miss Cloud-competed in the mutton-busting, goat undecorating and barrel-racing events at the 1st Annual Round-Up Rodeo, Sunday, June 12 in Kennedy.
Goat tying was just one of the events at the 1st Annual RoundUp Rodeo, Sunday, June 12 in Kennedy. The day-long event was “A day for the whole family,” according to organizer, Jaime Balon. “And we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.”
This young rider manouvres her horse through the poles during the pole bending event at the 1st Annual Round-Up Rodeo, Sunday, June 12 in Kennedy.
The 1st Annual Round-Up Rodeo held in Kennedy on Sunday, June 12 was the brainchild of Jaime Balon and Natasha Romanow, both of Corning. The two women were inspired after attending the Esterhazy Rodeo and were eager “to host an event that the whole family can participate in,” says Romanow. “When we approached people in Kennedy about holding it at their rodeo grounds, they couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming.”
The 1st Annual Round-Up Rodeo, held in Kennedy on Sunday, June 12, attracted competitors from all ages from throughout the province. Pictured are: (l-r) Gracie Hillrud, 11 and her horse, Yoda, Mazey Hillrud, 10 and her horse, Rock, and their mom, Dawn Hillrud, with her horse, Buddy. The Hillruds travelled from Ceylon, Sask. to take part in the day-long event.
The 1st Annual Round-up Rodeo-held Sunday, June 12 in Kennedy-was a family affair, with competitors of all ages. Events included: youth breakaway roping, wild pony races, open breakaway roping, goat tying, pole bending, goat undecorating, team roping, youth barrel racing and open barrel racing. Here, a competitor and her horse await their turn in the chute.

LOCAL NEWS
Alida News Submitted by Edel Cowan
The community extends sincere sympathy to Leroy Wilcott and family on the death of his wife, Delores who had passed away on June 12, 2016. A memorial service was held June 17 at the Wolkowski Funeral Chapel in Kamsack. Condolences are also extended to all other members of the Wilcott families. Visiting with Gray and Edel Cowan for a couple of hours in the afternoon on Monday, June 13 were his cousins, Sharon Lafferty and Tanis Sommerfield from BC. Visiting a few days last week with Margaret and Brian Peet was her mother Claire Germain of Regina. While here she also visited with other family members. Brenda Boutin accompanied her uncle Morley Orsted on Friday, June 17 to Abbotsford, BC where they attended the funeral for Malcolm Orsted, who had passed away on May 31, 2016. The Alida community extends their sincere sympathy to Brenda Boutin and Marcia Gervais on the death of their Uncle Malcom, as well as to all other family members. Gary Junk accompanied Pete Nissen to Regina on June 16 where they attended the Farm Progress Show. There were many others (approximately 30) that also attend the show – a very popular event to attend. On Thursday, June 16 Brenda Junk, Gloria Girard and Dave Ince were in Pierson, MB to watch Adrianna Junk running barrels. On Sunday, June 19 Gary and Brenda Junk attended the Girls Ball Play-offs (all ages) in Oxbow where they watched granddaughter Adrianna Junk play ball. Unfortunately her ball team lost out in the semi-finals (12-11) – a great game. Despite the strong winds they all seemed to have a good time. Shelly Cowan traveled to Minot on June 19 in order to accompany her parents Myron and Orlys Nilsen to Bismark where her father underwent surgery on Mon-
day. She hoped to return home on Wednesday, June 22. The Alida swimming pool opened its doors this past weekend (June 18 and 19) and the young people surely did enjoy this and made good use of their time spent there. They will be opened again this coming weekend (June 25 and 26) so don’t forget to come out and enjoy the pool. The pool will be opened all day next month and that’s going to happen very soon as there’s only about 8 days of school left. Also don’t forget to inquire about swimming lessons as they will be starting in July and that month will be here before we know it. Play safe at the pool this summer and have fun. By the calendar it is now officially summer and the temperature is surely agreeing with the time table – it very hot out of doors, but of course the wind is still blowing with all the strength it can muster up. We have been fortunate to miss the severe storms that were forecasted (not sorry for that) but we did receive some rain. Again I believe we’ve been fortunate as we only received around the half inch at the most over this past weekend. Have you noticed the longer daylight hours? Yep we’ve passed the longest day and hate to think or even say it – but that will mean that we’ll be going the other way heading for the shortest day. Let’s not think about that right now and just enjoy the summer days. Don’t forget the insect spray – those mosquitos are plentiful now and like to bite. Oh, oh the dog is in the dog house once again! He has discovered that there are some very nice, soft fresh “pies” lying out there in the pasture just waiting for his attention! And attention he did give them! He tried to dye his coat brown by rolling first one way and then the other in those nice brown “pies” – don’t think he missed too many of them. Was it SMELLY? Oh yah – believe you me, it wasn’t Roses. The perfume could defiantly make an improvement by 100% and not hurt my feelings. Hubby had the chore of cleaning and brushing him up again – not sure if this dog is “still the man’s best friend!” Please remember to let me know about your news either call (306-443-2496) or text (306-485-8561) or e-mail (g.cowan@sasktel.net).

Food safety a front burner issue for consumers By Calvin Daniels Submitted
Food safety is definitely a front burner issue these days for consumers. And if it is a key issue for consumers, it is something farm producers have to be keenly aware of. The reality of the world today has even the most minor of food scares carried via mainstream press and of course social media to every corner of the populace. Often cases may be blown out of proportion, but that may well be warranted given the importance of a safe food supply. But there is another question which needs to be part of the discussion surrounding food safety, and that is what might best be done to ensure our food is safe. We see governments increasingly pushing forward with trade deals to improve trade access from country-to-country. That is often good news in terms of economic trade. But, at the same time we do hand over a level of trust in terms of the food security regulations and policing in other countries. Frankly, I’m not convinced that is the wisest decision we’ve made in terms of safe food on the table, but that is where international trade agreements and big business have taken us. There is however the question of technology which may help make food safer. In that regard that is essentially what pasteurization was in terms of milk when the process was first created. There were a lot of naysayers worrying about what pasteurizing milk might be doing to the NOTICE OF INTENTION TO DESIGNATE MUNICIPAL HERITAGE PROPERTY The Heritage Property Act S.S. 1979-80, c.H-2.2 s. 11(2)(b)
Notice is hereby given that not less than thirty days from the date of service of this notice, the Council of the:
milk, but over time the process was generally accepted and milk products were safer because of it. We may be in that same area of debating the merits and safety of food irradiation. “The process involves exposing the food, either packaged or in bulk, to carefully controlled amounts of ionizing radiation for a specific time to achieve certain desirable objectives,” details https://uw-food-irradiation.engr.wisc.edu/ Facts.html “When microbes present in the food are irradiated, the energy from the radiation breaks the bonds in the DNA molecules, causing defects in the genetic instructions. Unless this damage can be repaired, the organism will die or will be unable to reproduce. It matters if the food is frozen or fresh, because it takes larger radiation dose to kill microbes in frozen foods. The effectiveness of the process depends also on the organism’s sensitivity to irradiation, on the rate at which it can repair damaged DNA, and especially on the amount of DNA in the target organism: *Parasites and insect pests, which have large amounts of DNA, are rapidly killed by an extremely low dose of irradiation. *It takes more irradiation to kill bacteria, because they have less DNA. *Viruses are the smallest pathogens that have nucleic acid, and they are, in general, resistant to irradiation at doses approved for foods. “If the food still has living cells, they will be damaged or killed just as microbes are. This is a useful effect: it can be used to prolong the shelf life of fruits and vegetables because it inhibits sprouting and delays ripening.” Of course when people hear of irradiation there is a level of worry raised.
Kennedy/Langbank News Submitted by Doreen Cancade
Rural Municipality of Moose Creek #33 intends to pass a bylaw pursuant to the provisions of The Heritage Property Act, to designate as Municipal Heritage Property the following real property known as:
The Arthur School at Auburnton legally described as:
PT NE 21-05-01 W2M and located at:
The farthest northeast corner of parcel # 166110511 on title # 142392551 The reasons for the proposed designation are as follows: 1. Application for grant funding requires the property to be designated as a Municipal Heritage Property. 2. A request from the landowner was submitted to Council. Any person wishing to object to the proposed designation must serve council with a written objection stating the reasons for the objection and all relevant facts not less than three days prior to consideration of the bylaw. Dated this 9 day of June, 2016

But worry does seem ill-placed for a process that has been around for decades, first used in Germany in 1958. There are currently food products which are approved by Health Canada for irradiation, a process whereby the foods are exposed to alpha or gamma rays which may kill E. coli, salmonella and other microbes, as well as some parasites and moulds. And the process does little to affect the food itself, at least according the website. “Yes, the foods are not changed in nutritional value and they don’t become dangerous as a result of irradiation. At irradiation levels approved for use on foods, levels of the vitamin thiamine are slightly reduced, but not enough to result in vitamin deficiency. There are no other significant changes in the amino acid, fatty acid, or vitamin content of food. In fact, the changes induced by irradiation are so minimal that it is not easy to determine whether or not a food has been irradiated.” E. coli is certainly one of the food safety concerns, especially in meat, consumers have, so a process which can kill the bacteria should be embraced. While Canada allows irradiation on products such as flour, spices, onions and potatoes it does not on meats, even though dozens of countries allow it, including the United States. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has allowed the use of irradiation on beef for almost two decades and recently approved the use of irradiation on lobster, shrimp and crab. It would seem we are at the point where food safety concerns should have paved the way for broader use of irradiation and we should move in that direction.
Father’s Day was very different-wind took over the nice weather, however, nothing can replace a Father. There are two lasting gifts fathers can give their children. One is roots. The other wings. Thursday, June 14th was an exciting evening when Colleen Daku and her sister Debbie, mother Sue and mother-in-law Violet attended a baby shower for Camryn Rose Petracet in Esterhazy at the home of Audrey Petracet, there were 4 great grandmothers and two grandmothers in attendance. What a lucky baby to have so many grandmothers, and a very proud mother Jessica. Friday afternoon, June 17th the usual afternoon tea was held at the Langbank church, yes, these ladies have a very nice afternoon every year to raise money for the Mothers of Africa, approximately 18 ladies were in attendance, since the day was close to Fathers celebrating Father’s Day Beth Bratten asked everyone to share a memory of their father - very interesting comments, followed by a delicious lunch and visiting.
Margaret Guillaume of Moose Jaw spent a few days visiting with Clair and Lorna Dorrance, also other family members from Wawota then on to Weyburn to her sister Annie Easton and more family members. Gloria Rupert of Montmartre and her daughter Maureen of Calgary, AB visited George and I on Thursday, then Sunday Gloria and her friends Cal and Yvonne were supper guests with the Cancades and Carrie Stephen of Saskatoon. A number of residents of Kennedy have formed a reading club, every member reads the same book and their first get-together was held at the Kennedy Library on Friday, June 17th (eight people attended). The first book was “The House We Grew Up In” by Lisa Jewell. They choose another book, (not sure of the name) new members are very welcome, contact the library for more information. Keep in mind the Southeast Regional Library will be holding a 50th Anniversary in Kennedy.

Murphy refutes report
Rider Insider Rod Pedersen Sportsnet’s Justin Dunk reported on Monday that the Saskatchewan Roughriders have added defensive lineman Ese Mrabure-Ajufo and offensive lineman Dillon Guy by way of the B.C. Lions’ practice roster.
Dunk Tweeted from his account @JDunk12, “Riders grab two Canadians off BC Lions’ practice roster” Monday afternoon however Roughriders Assistant V.P. of Player Personnel John Murphy later appeared on 620 CKRM’s SportsCage to say that’s not the case. “Well, two things,” Murphy began. “Number one, it’s not correct to say that anybody’s ‘stolen’. When you release a player, the player has an opportunity to A) either sign on your practice roster or B) look for other employment. There’s options in the world and this is all this was.” I mentioned to Murphy that this ap-
pears to be standard CFL business. “Yeah, if you were released, everybody finds out that you were released,” Murphy continued. “As a player you can immediately sign on the practice roster or, because there’s no more waivers in the CFL anymore, you’re automatically a free agent and two minutes later you can sign a practice roster agreement (elsewhere). The only issue I have is what’s being reporting is, you’re not stealing anything if neither player ever signed with the B.C. Lions. They were released, their agent called around to several teams, and they had several options
offered to them including one to come out and talk to us and see if it’s a good fit. “If it turns out that’s where they decide to finalize an agreement with, I could be upset if somebody leaves but all of our practice roster guys had an option of calling other teams or going other places. Two or three guys were offered to stay around this week to see what happens because things always change. One or two said yes and two or three said ‘no thanks’ and wanted to go home. If somebody’s upset over this, that’s the first that I’ve heard of it. Nobody’s phoned or contacted us from the B.C. Lions saying
they’re upset. Nothing was done incorrectly by us. Like I said, it’s CFL business. Is it reported properly? No. Because I’m not happy with anyone saying we stole anything. That’s not how it went down.” Dunk later Tweeted the suggestion that the Roughriders violated an unwritten rule by signing these two players. “Ah cut it out,” Murphy scoffed. “That’s the part that’s not reported properly. They were never on the B.C. Lions practice roster. What happened was, the way that teams release players, if I’m doing releases at 3:58, between 3:58 and 4:00 they’ll end up on one report. Between
4:00 and the following day, they’ll show up on a second report. So, when they did an initial list of cuts, they cut a certain amount of players. That’s what they reported. So now no one sees these two players’ names on a report of being released and the next thing you hear is ‘oh they be going to another team’ so everyone’s put 2 and 2 together and come up with 4 when that’s not the right answer. They’re two totally different scenarios.” To hear the entire interview with Murphy, listen to the podcast at www.sportscage. ca. Murphy appears at 5:10 pm.
Cars and moose - Not compatible! There’s nothing ‘amoosing’ about it. Vehicular collisions with wildlife in Saskatchewan continue to be a costly and life-threatening problem. That’s why for 20 years now, the Sas-
katchewan Wildlife Federation (SWF) with financial support from SGI, have been reminding motorists of the ever increasing number of vehicular collisions with wild moose and deer. So far this year,
from January 1 to May 31, 2016, 200 collision claims with moose were reported. Vehicle damage costs are estimated to be nearly $2 million dollars. In the same time frame, there have been
3,684 collision claims with deer reported, resulting in nearly $20 million dollars in vehicle damages. The most recent awareness campaign is called “Moose on the Loose”. Previous
campaigns included “Slow down and Save a Buck” and “Go Slow and Save a Little Doe”. The “Moose on the Loose” campaign consists of various media reminders to motorists to be more alert while driving on Saskatchewan roadways. From large highway billboards and posters, to TV and radio PSA’S as well as restaurant placemats distributed to many of the 122 branches of the SWF, the SWF is hoping to get the message out there. Adult moose are a particularly dangerous road hazard because of their size and weight.
In recent years, the moose population has increased tremendously in areas of the province where they traditionally haven’t been seen, such as short grass prairie. It’s now not uncommon to see moose roaming the fields in search of food or the company of others, and this is a great threat to motorists. “Wildlife have no understanding of the dangers of crossing the highway, so only drivers can prevent a collision with a large moose or deer” says Darrell Crabbe, SWF Executive director.
Subject: STARS Rescue on the Prairies 2016 The purpose of this letter is twofold. I want to thank you for the generous donations made in 2015 to our Campaign to raise money for STARS in the 2015 Rescue on the Prairies. Because of everyone’s generosity to such a worthy cause $450,000 was raised overall in Saskatchewan. I am proud to say that with your help we raised approximately $230,000 of this amount. The same campaign will run again in 2016 with Tina Bird, a very strong community-minded individual in the Estevan Area, will replace me and be challenged to raise $50,000 for STARS Foundation.

Report from the Legislature By Dan D’Autremont, MLA for Cannington Saskatchewan’s population grew to another all-time high in the first quarter of 2016, according to the latest figures released by Statistics Canada. There were 1,146,655 people living in Saskatchewan as of April 1, 2016 – up 4,085 from January 1, 2016 and up 16,118 over the past year. Saskatchewan’s population has now grown in every quarter for 10 consecutive years, growing by more than 155,000 during that period. In the previous decade 1996 to 2006, Saskatchewan’s population dropped in 28 of 40 quarters, declining by more than 26,000 people. Saskatchewan employees who need to take time away from work to care for a loved one will soon be eligible to receive up to 28 weeks of job-protected leave – an increase from eight weeks. Saskatchewan will be one of three provinces to increase this leave to match the changes to Employment Insurance, recognizing that families are important and generational needs are changing. For more information on compassionate care leave and other benefits, visit saskatchewan.ca/business/ employment-standards. A successful program that has been helping to minimize the effect of separation and divorce on family members, especially children, is now being offered throughout Saskatchewan. Family Matters can help couples work through issues outside of the courts by providing information on child custody, parenting plans, children’s developmental needs and property division. For more information, call 1-844-863-3408 or email familymatters@gov.sk.ca Coverage amendments introduced in the Legislative Assembly will improve Saskatchewan’s auto injury program to better meet the needs of people who are injured in vehicle collisions. Amendments to The Automobile Accident Insurance Act have different impacts for all Saskatchewan auto injury programs. In total, there are more than 20 changes, such as: • When an impaired driver causes a collision and is killed, allow an innocent party or the family impacted to sue for pain and suffering or bereavement
damages (No Fault, Reduced No Fault and Tort coverage). • The list of offences that trigger the ability for an innocent party to sue for pain and suffering or bereavement damages will expand to include: criminal negligence causing death or bodily harm, criminal negligence causing bodily injury, flight from a peace officer and dangerous operation while street racing (No Fault, Reduced No Fault and Tort coverage). • Ensuring income benefits maintain pace with minimum wage (Tort and Reduced No Fault coverage). The amendments are based on recommendations from SGI resulting from consultation with and feedback from a variety of stakeholders and groups. The legislation is anticipated to be passed during the fall 2016 sitting of the Legislature, with changes

One in eight jobs involves the agriculture and agri-food industry which is why keeping youth connected to agriculture is necessary to keep our agriculture industry strong. Connecting kids and agriculture is the aim of Agriculture in the Classroom Saskatchewan, a program that will receive an additional $400,000 in funding from the federal and provincial governments. Over the past seven years, AITC-SK has reached more than 136,000 students. The additional funding will increase program capacity and expand the role the organization plays in career development. A five-year funding agreement was established in 2013 and the enhanced funding brings the total government investment during this agreement to more than $1.4 million.

Mom sent out her letters of thanks: “Milton, the house you built is so huge. I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house.” “Gerald, I am too old to travel any more. My eyesight isn’t what it used to be. I stay home most of the time, so I rarely use the Mercedes. And the driver is so rude!” “Dearest Donald,” she wrote to her third son, “you have the good sense to know what your Mother likes. The chicken was delicious!” Travelling across the vast expanse of Saskatchewan prairie frees the mind and liberates the imagination in marvellous ways. You could say it can be inspirational at times. On a recent trip I reflected on how my thoughts have changed over the years driving to Saskatoon where I first met the love of my life and where our first child was born. As a young man I was restless, hungry for undefined things, seeking, setting goals and always anxious in an unfulfilled sort of way.
There was a constant shortage of money; there were dreams, desires and longings, and to keep myself awake while driving, I could always let my worries entertain me. Today I am more relaxed as I drive. I rely on my companion or on music, coke and a fruit-nut mix to keep me awake. My worries are fewer and my life less anxious. I am more likely to be counting my blessings. On this week’s trip my wife pointed out a long, double line of granaries one particular farmer had amassed. And the thought struck me, “What do I have in the granaries of my life? Fortunately there is more than perishable goods. I picture the granaries of my life as full now and my dreams as largely fulfilled. There is much gratitude for the wonderful gifts of spouse and family. Investments in community and church pay dividends. Even my income has improved over the years so I can see ends meeting, even-

tually. There is much to be grateful for. Sadly, not everyone finds contentment in their senior years. Many are like the foolish man in Luke 12 where Jesus tells us this parable: “The land of a rich man was very productive. And he began reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns [granaries] and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.”’ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’ So is the man who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” May you lay up treasures of heaven in the granaries of your life. And may you die rich in the Lord.

Southey folk fighting mine By Murray Mandryk Rural Saskatchewan people always seem to be facing an uphill battle, even if they don’t spend much time thinking about. Most rural folks are just too damn business trying to eke out a living, whether they are farming or operating a small rural business trying to keep their customer base at time of shrinking rural populations. But when their very way of life is threatened, they fight tooth and nail. This is now the case for Southey area residents battling Yancoal over a $3.6-billion solution potash mine that has the support of Premier Brad Wall’s Saskatchewan Party government. The pitched battled made its way to the legislature earlier tis month, when some 70 local residents came to tell their story. “Ten years ago the province was begging to have a community like ours, now they are set to destroy it,” Southey businessman Neil Wagner told reporters. “Our concern is about the environmental impact this is going to have and that’s our issue with it.” And according to Southey area farmers and businesses that will be directly impacted by the mine location, there battle with state-owned Chinese mining company is a classic Davidversus-Goliath story. Yancoal has already secured a license to use Buffalo Pound reservoir (Regina’s water source, so city residents have a dog in this fight, as well) in the neighbour of 11 and 12 million cubic metres of water annually. But fear of their wa-

ter being contaminated is only the beginning of it for local residents, who also fear their property being split, the loss of wildlife and even their children’s safety being put at risk. “If this could happen to us, every farmer in the province should notice,” said Karla Hegglin, another area farmer. “It could happen to them, as well.” Many of these residents are taken aback by the approach of the Sask. Party government, normally, ever mindful of its rural support. However, the group expressed its disappointment with Last Mountain-Touchwood Sask. Party MLA Glen Hart, who they said confirmed that the government is willing to sacrifice their rural way of life in the name of economic development. “This community may need to look at possibly sacrificing themselves because the government needs the resource money right now,” Wagner said, paraphrasing Hart at a meeting. “He mentioned it at the beginning of the meeting and he repeated it at the end of the meeting.” Hart denied saying “anything like that” but snippets of a tape recording of the meeting have leaked out, suggesting the Southey residents aren’t far off base. Moreover, Economy Minister Bill Boyd has since acknowledged he met with Yancoal as far back as 2012 and has pushed for the proposal. Of equal frustration is the bureaucratic process, in which the local residents say the local rural municipal don’t have the capacity to contribute in the

environmental process. Meanwhile, the residents feel that Yancoal has done the absolute minimum in what the people describe as a “broken” process. Finally, but maybe most significantly, it is a battle within the community as well, making this fight even tougher. The local area is clearly split between those farmers directly affected and those less directly impacted and seeing a huge financial benefit of having jobs and economic activity next door. All this makes for an uphill battle, causing one to wonder why they these people think they have a chance at winning. But in spirit of rural people, the Southey farmers seem to have an answer. “If you feel you’re too small to be effective: Have you ever been in a room with a mosquito in the dark?” said business owner and resident Thera Nordal. “We will continue to make noise until our voices are heard.”

By Linda Wegner Walking has become a much-loved and valued part of my life resulting in remarkable improvements in my health and appearance; for nearly a year I’ve started each day at the track. Then, tendonitis hit. Months of pain and waiting for an appointment with the foot and ankle specialist began to drag me down. When I finally did see a specialist, what she had to say hit hard: do these exercises and no more walking for three months. Now the purpose of that little anecdote is not to solicit sympathy but rather to emphasize another important thing I’ve learned over many years. Here it is in a nutshell: either come apart and rest or you will simply come apart. I’m not the author of that nugget of truth but I use it quite regularly. It’s no secret that we live in a culture where success seems to be measured by the hours we spend racing around amassing as much “stuff” as we can. Times of rest and refreshing are, too often, designated as luxuries we can’t afford. In spite of strong medical evidence of the costs of sleep deprivation, we seem unable to slow down. Sadly we sometimes make the same mistake
in attempting to serve God; instead of allowing Him to work in His time and in His way, we frantically attempt to substitute our own energy for that of His Spirit. Among the many admonitions found in the Bible regarding how we are to live and to treat others, Jesus also exhorted his disciples
to “come apart and rest awhile” and, I’m convinced, that applies to every aspect of our lives. “…learn from Me for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matt. 11:29) Thankfully, under direction from a second doctor, I’m walking again and rejoicing!

OBITUARIES Henry (Dick) Van Sprundel Henry (Dick) Van Sprundel passed away peacefully with family by his side on Monday, May 30, 2016 at the age of 85. Dick was the third child born to Peter and Marie Van Sprundel. He was born on the family farm south east of Manor. He attended school in Manor. Dick worked for various farmers and an oilfield job in Oxbow for a short time before joining his brother John and taking over the family farm. Dick and John farmed together for over 60 years, and in the later years his nephews Richard and Darcy joined the team. Dick loved the farm, so much so that he rarely left the farm. He lived with his brother John, sister-in-law Mary and family. Dick always enjoyed animals,whether it was pets,wildlife or the farm animals. Dick enjoyed a good game of checkers or Belgium whist with family and friends. Dick was hospitalized in May of 2012 and was confined to a wheelchair. He spent a month in respite in Carlyle Nursing Home, then was transferred to Estevan, then to Wawota and finally to the Redvers Haven. Dick is survived by his brother John Van Sprundel, sisters Nellie Morris and Annie (Henry) Boutin and numerous nieces and nephews. A funeral service was held on June 3/16 at St. Regis Roman Catholic Church,Wauchope, SK. With Rev. Michelle Moore officiating. Interment followed at St. Joseph’s Cemetery,Manor. Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Orsted FuneralHome,Carlyle. The family wishes to thank the staff at the Redvers Haven for the excellent care that Dick received.

It is with hearts full of love and memories, that we announce Robert James Beatty lost his battle with cancer on Wednesday, June 1st at the age of 84 years. Robert was born November 21, 1931 to Frederick and Hilda Beatty - one of seven children. He lived on a farm southeast of Carlyle and attended Carleton Junction School. Robert left home in 1950 to pursue employment with the CPR in Calgary. He found he didn’t enjoy office work so left to work with International Harvester in Regina. In 1953, he married Elizabeth Pontius and they continued to live in Regina until Robert’s Dad had a farming accident and they moved back to look after the farm. Robert was later employed with a seismic crew and then Tidewater/Marathon Oil. Following his retirement in 1988, Robert purchased a water-hauling business which he operated for a couple years. In 1975, Robert and Betty moved to Kenosee Lake and built a two-story, six-sided house. They also purchased 40 acres of land adjacent to Moose Mountain Provincial Park which he developed into a hobby farm. It was here that his ever-changing assortment of animals provided many hours of enjoyment to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. For many years, Robert delighted the community with his unique and creative outdoor Christmas displays. Preparations would begin in early November and build up to an impressive showcase of lights and moving decorations. Robert was well-known for his intense love and passion for the dance floor. When the right beat found his ear, he would, without hesitation, be on his feet with his beautiful wife, daughter, granddaughter, great-granddaughter or anyone else that was lucky enough to take hold of his hand. He moved around the dance floor gracefully and with a twinkle in his eye bringing energy and happiness to everyone in the room. Robert’s memory will be forever cherished by his wife of 63 years, Elizabeth (Betty); children, Dianne (Ken), Brenda (John) and Tim (Cathi); grandchildren, Cory (Jodi), Crystal (Jeremy), Sheldon (Reni), Amy (Travis), Ryan (Jen), Shana (Bill), Riley (Laura) and Keisha; granddaughter-in-law, Sherry; great-grandchildren, Dessa, Taylor, Kadence, Jayla, Daphne, Clara, Darius, Carter, Keisha, Ryder, Elliot, Lucas, Nixon, Anna, Liam, Sophia and Quin; siblings, Cecil, Isabel, Freda and Dennis. Robert is predeceased by his parents, Frederick and Hilda, brothers, Carl and Ron and grandson, Adam. Whether you called Robert, Bob, Brother, Husband, Dad, Grandpa, Great-Grandpa, Uncle, or Friend, - you are part of the legacy of a truly loving, generous and caring man. His spirit will live on for generations through his family, his amazing sense of humour and his gift of time spent with family and friends. If friends so wish, donations in Robert’s name may be made to the Canadian Transplant Association.
