Fire training course focuses on handling situations

As the firefighters worked on getting vehicles out from under a tipped trailer, Flying G Trucking brought out a picker truck who at first ensured safety while working and later was used working with the trainees allowing them the opportunity to work alongside a picker truck, a situation which may develop. Kelly Running Observer Staff

In southeast Saskatchewan it’s a call they dread, a collision. A heavy truck has collided with a vehicle and it doesn’t look good. People are trapped, injured, and possibly dying or already dead. With people in trouble a fire department must jump into action. People are relying on them and a firefighter must make critical, quick decisions when in the moment. Whether the call involves a semi tractor, a hazardous materials trailer, a cement truck, or a school bus, training is an extremely important aspect for a firefighter to be able to respond to any situation and keep a level head while doing so. In relation to the importance of training, Carlyle Fire and Rescue facilitated a training weekend for Heavy Extrication Course on Saturday, Oct. 24, and Sunday, Oct. 25. Coming out of Calgary to facilitate training was Randy Schmitz. He led a total of 15 students through various scenarios set up by the local Fire and Rescue. Schmitz is a firefighter and extrication instructor with the Calgary Fire Department in Alberta. Staff photo by Kelly Running

Monster Lollipops These candy monsters may be small, but they’re mighty delicious. Build the creatures around a lollipop, and slip them into tall cellophane bags tied with decorative ribbon if you’re using them for party favors. Remember: When you snip, slice, or poke candies, you expose a stickiness that helps adhere them to one another. The bigger the exposed part, the stronger the bond will be. Tools and Materials Kids’ scissors Toothpicks (used to poke the candy and stick on features) White and black gumdrops Lollipops White spice drops Green candy mints Black shoestring licorice Red sprinkles Monster Lollipops How-To 1. For each individual monster, you’ll need white and black gumdrops, a lollipop, 3 white spice drops, a green candy mint, black shoestring licorice, and a red sprinkle. 2. Cut top and bottom off white gumdrop and press to top of lollipop. Cut top off black gumdrop and add for monster’s hair. Cut a white spice drop in half lengthwise for arms, and cut tops off 2 more to use for legs. 3. Press the limbs into place on the body. Poke holes on “face” and add mint nose, snipped licorice eyes and neck bolts, and a red sprinkle mouth.

5 tips for safe trick-or-treating this Halloween With children across Saskatchewan getting their costumes ready for Halloween on Saturday, local agencies have come out with tips for safe trick-or-treating. The Canadian Centre for Child Protection, a Winnipeg-based non-proﬁt organization that promotes children’s personal safety, has released a resource guide for parents called 5 Habits for a Safe Halloween. “These safety habits are easy to implement into your family’s Halloween routine and create a safety foundation that you can build on year by year as children become more independent,” Noni Classen, the centre’s director of education, said in a news release Tuesday. “Halloween is a great time to discuss some of the real-world situations children may face and build up their safety competence.” So what should parents discuss with their kids before Halloween night? Here are the centre’s ﬁve safety tips: 1. Make a plan. Plan a trick-or-treating route. Talk with older kids about their plans and remind them

to stay in familiar areas with well-lit streets and others nearby. Make sure all children know “safe neighbours” they can go to in case of emergency. 2. Supervise trick-or-treaters. The centre recommends that parents supervise young children and make plans with older children to check in regularly and return home by a certain time. 3. Buddy up: Make sure kids travel together. Teach your children about the buddy system and remind them that there’s safety in numbers. 4. Remind children to trust their instincts. Remind children to be aware of their surroundings when trick-or-treating and talk about ways to deal with situations where they may feel uncomfortable or afraid. Options include getting help from a buddy, calling home or going to a safe neighbour. 5. Encourage children to be assertive. “Teach children to set clear boundaries about personal space. They should never go inside a home while trick-or-treating without checking with you,” the centre says. “If someone approaches them on the street and asks them to go somewhere with them, remind them not to go, run away and tell a safe adult what happened.”

FCC Drive Away Hunger campaign Kelly Running Observer Staff

Carlyle’s Farm Credit Canada office engaged both Carlyle Elementary School and Arcola School in gathering food items for the FCC Drive Away Hunger 2015 campaign. The Carlyle Elementary School collected 283.4 lbs of food and Arcola School collected 290.6 lbs helping the local FCC office in their efforts. The food drive lasted from May 4 until Oct. 23 in communities across the country in an effort to aid Canadian food banks.

“When it comes to our basic needs in life, food is at the top of the list. Most of us are fortunate to have enough to eat. Not everyone is so lucky,” Farm Credit Canada explains on their website. “That’s why Farm Credit Canada (FCC) is so passionate about FCC Drive Away Hunger. After all, we’re in the business of agriculture, which is the business of producing food. We know this is something close to the hearts of our customers and employees. It’s a way we can all come together to help Canadian food banks help those who go hungry – including kids, who sadly make up 36 percent of people who rely on food banks in our country.” Staff photo by Kelly Running

Arcola SRC and grade one class (the grade who brought in the most food to be donated) join Farm Credit Canada employees for the FCC Drive Away Hunger campaign. In total Arcola brought in 290.6 lbs of food for the food drive.

Hallowe’en is here. Ghosts, ghouls, goblins, princesses, superheroes, and more will be ﬂocking to the streets as they trick or treat, travelling door to door. Although Hallowe’en is extremely exciting for youth as they dress up and go door to door collecting candy, it is important to keep a few safety tips in mind regarding this thrilling night. The following tips are suggestions found on www.safekidscanada. ca to help keep youth safe on Hallowe’en night. Those who go trick or treating under the age of nine should be accompanied by an adult. This will allow the adult to ensure youth are safely crossing the road, not darting in and out of traﬃc. Good pedestrian habits taught when children are young will resonate as they mature. The old adage, “stop, look, and listen,” doesn’t simply apply to railroad crossings. These are important in simply crossing a road as well. Hallowe’en is an exciting time and youth may dart across streets without considering the importance of crossing a street. Children should be encouraged to stop at the curb then look left, right, and left to make sure there are no oncoming vehicles or that a vehicle is stopping to allow them to cross. It is also encouraged for youth to be told to always cross at

Since, it may be dark out while children trick or treat a flashlight may also be necessary to ensure safety and make them more visible. Another important concern to keep in mind is for the selection of bright costumes that are visible in the dark. It is also possible to add reflective tape to a child’s costume as a precautionary measure. Choosing face paint over a mask may also be beneficial as masks may hinder a youth’s ability to see.

Dealing with Canadian weather it is also suggested to dress the child warmly. Get a costume that will either ﬁt over their jackets or have them prepared to cover their costumes with warm clothing. Drivers are reminded to be on high alert, especially in residential areas. Driving slowly is suggested in case a sudden stop is demanded of the driver. Also encouraged is the slow entrance and exit of driveways as youth may dart past on the sidewalk at anytime. Stay safe and have fun.

Moose Mountain Gone Wild! An evening of fundraising Kelly Running Observer Staff

The outpouring of support in dinner tickets sold and donated items for the auction, which totalled around 60 silent auction items and 12 live auction items. “Thank you all for coming out, I couldn’t do this by myself. There is an amazing group of people standing behind me, helping to make this all happen.” As Winkler thanked those in attendance for coming she explained, “I can multitask 40 animals at a time on bottles, but I’m a deer in the headlights up here in front of you all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, thank you for the support.” Winkler has been rehabilitating animals for the past 10 years. Moose Mountain Rehabilitation serves the entire southeast corner of the province. The non-profit organization is fully funded through donations and Winkler’s artwork that she sells. Currently Winkler has 34 intakes including three moose, an elk, five hawks, an eagle, raccoons, and more.

Sometimes people are just cleaning out their fridge or freezer and just drop stuff off that they don’t want anymore; but it’s still good for us to use.” While thanking people for their efforts, she included the Carlyle Co-op who has been an amazing support through giving their expired produce, which can still be used by the wildlife rehabilitator. Overall the evening was a great success, which was enjoyed by all. It was one which Winkler had been worried about, unsure of what the turnout and reception would be like, but one that she was elated with in the end.

The delicious meal, which included Ben Dubois’ famous roast beef, was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone in attendance. 15105DA1

Researching ATV Trails in Moose Mountain Provincial Park Kelly Running Observer Staff

In an eﬀort to better understand the thoughts surrounding ATV Trails in Moose Mountain Provincial Park, Saskatchewan Parks asked Aecom to conduct an open house event to receive public opinion regarding the trails. A local meeting was hosted on Tuesday, Oct. 20, between 4:30 p.m. And 7:30 p.m. at the Moose Mountain Provincial Park Recreation Hall. Concerns arose surrounding a lack of signage, the wetness of the back country, if someone gets into trouble while in the back country how it would be handled, disrespect of the animals and land, as well as a lack of enforcement on the trails. The recreational trails currently in use are the snowmobile trails, which with the wetter seasons lately have led to issues. So, before making any decisions regarding trails, Saskatchewan Parks wanted to see what public opinion was regarding them. Although there were concerns, many people were for the trails as they enjoy them in a recreational capacity suggesting that now would be an opportune time to rework the trails with the wetter back country in recent years. Many also wanted the trails open for longer periods of time and there were suggestions that an ATV club could be formed to help take care of them. In an eﬀort to better understand local sentiment regarding the park the open house

Quote of the Week . . . “Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” ― Mahatma Gandhi

Bring on the variety pack

Bring on the variety pack It’s all about timing. Make the purchase too early and we may have to re-stock. Wait too Shelley Luedtke long and the selection may be limited. The boxes of little chocolate bars that make great Hallowe’en treats sit on store shelves enticingly…temptingly…calling me to drop a box, or two, into my shopping cart. My husband and I ensure we are prepared for about 100 trick-or-treaters each year. We get about 25 costumed kids at our door. Yes, the math certainly works in my favor. Come Nov. 1 (well, to be honest it’s more like 9 pm on Oct. 31) I dig in and start munching on the leftovers. A survey of 40,000 Americans was conducted to determine the most popular Halloween candy in each state. The survey numbers account for a 0.01% sampling size, which is kind of like the itty-bitty bite-sized chocolate bars I love. If I were a child I’d want to live in Rhode Island where Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are tops, or Arizona where Toblerone reigns supreme. A survey questioning what candy you’re most likely to purchase isn’t going to impact too many people--unless those out of step in Iowa suddenly rush to buy Rolo chocolate so they can stay on trend. Many surveys, like this one, are light-hearted and fun; designed to sell advertising space to candy companies as well as gaining access to valuable marketing information on the part of those willing to take the survey. There are two phrases that cause the little hairs on the back of my neck to stand straight up; the first is “with all due respect” which is then followed by a verbal barrage that demonstrates anything but respect, and the other is “you’re entitled to your opinion” typically followed by words indicating their belief that we are not, in fact, entitled to our opinions because they differ from the ones they hold. We won’t always agree; we are people with different priorities and perspectives so it follows that we look at things differently. But frustration occurs when someone believes they’ve cornered the market on all correct opinions--leaving no room for a dissenting view. The conversations that happen person-to-person; business-to-business; organization-to-organization require a demonstration of respect that allows spaces for speaking, but more importantly for listening. Media pundits and analysts are real pros at the first part, but have little interest in the second. It might work for entertainment or political purposes but our neighborhoods, businesses and communities aren’t run by the pundits. They are run by people who invest their efforts and abilities to bring about success. The stronger each group, the stronger the community. The more successful each business, the better off the entire community. “You’re entitled to your opinion” requires having listened to what someone has said. It doesn’t require agreement, but if we disagree it doesn’t give us license to be rude, either. Criticism and animosity are easy to come by and quickly fueled, but it is wasted energy which benefits few and flatters none. If everyone in the community gave out exactly the same candy to trick-or-treaters the children would be missing out on the vast array of options, as would we if we don’t listen to the assortment of opinions of others. Yes, there are some that will be more palatable than others, but whether people have a hard outer shell or a soft gooey centre; whether they are too sweet for some or too nutty for others, it’s the assortment that comes together that keeps the mixture interesting. That’s my outlook.

We’re all still Canadian, act like it please… thank you Wow, I must say this election has shown me a lot about Kelly Running people on Facebook; mostly that Observer Staff they’re insane. Whether they were posting memes making fun of Trudeau or Harper, my newsfeed was literally rife with political rantings and mad ravings. When discussing politics, as my Uncle told me, I’m very good at riding the fence. I’m of the belief that you vote for you who you vote for and you don’t ask someone else who they voted for. It’s one of those subjects. Although I like discussion of politics, I would never straight out ask who you’re voting for, I just want to know what you think of the parties. This year, as a grade nine girl pointed out to me, because of social media, this is deﬁnitely not the case anymore; although, she said her mom still told her it was impolite to ask, much like asking someone how much money they make. Regardless of who got into power, democracy works. The majority of Canadians wanted a change and that’s what Canada got. Let us look at this from that perspective. In Canada we have the right to vote. We have a right that so many people are ﬁghting for in the world today. We have the freedom to discuss politics and form opinions, and yes, create memes making fun of our political leaders. Can you imagine what would happen in some of the countries around the world if you were to bash the person in power? This is part of what makes us Canadians, our rights and freedoms which we rely on constantly without really grasping the bigger picture. We don’t know how to live without these freedoms and often take them for granted. We fail to appreciate the fact that we all live our lives in peace as long as we’re not hurting or infringing on someone else’s rights. This is what it means to be Canadian to me, to live in peace and be good to each other regardless of race or religion. “Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything,” George Bernard Shaw, a Nobel Prize winning playwright, has said.

I’m not saying it would have been the worst thing in the world for Harper to stay in, but having different and new ideas is important. It’s why the majority of Canada decided they wanted change, they simply wanted progress which they felt wasn’t happening anymore under the Conservatives. As I looked at Facebook statuses following the election I was greatly disappointed in my Facebook “friends” saying they wanted to move now or one who even said “Canada get f***ed.” Sorry, but whether our government is being run by Conservatives or Liberals or the Green Party. We are Canadian and there’s more to it than the political parties leading our country. At least there were gleams of hope as well, shared was a local girl’s status who recently finished high school, she was too young to vote by a few weeks, but this was her take on people’s reactions to the election which I thought provoked a sense of patriotism and understanding lacking by many: An open letter to Canada: Oh Canada, recently I visited a hospital where a young girl sat on a bed waiting for an IV that she would not receive because her family could not afford the $10 for the needle. Did I mention the bed was in the hallway which is the ICU? A few months ago I visited a prison where people are being detained for car accidents that were not their fault. I see kids everyday that sit on the sidewalk because they can’t afford to go to school. So before we talk about how Harper ruined our country, or how Trudeau is about to, let’s take a chill pill (probably paid for by the government) and remember all the things that make Canada AWESOME! Let’s all stock up on maple syrup, bacon, and get ready for hockey season. We are more than America’s hat, we are the second largest country! So let’s raise that flag with true patriot love and be those polite, moose loving, polar bear riding, igloo living, friendly Canadians we all are!

Seeing things differently . . .

Snow tires? Life-changing

Before legislating look to educating

Lynne Bell

The other day Lynne came into my office quite excited. She had something she felt very strongly about and wanted to address it in this week’s pro/con discussion: winter tires. Obviously she wanted to argue for them being legislated into having to have, so I laughed, and said I’d take her on in the debate. So, should it be legislated that winter tires be mandatory? Well, no. Winter tires are an extreme cost, yes they do grip better, it’s what they’re made for, but a good set of allseason tires and an alert driver behind the wheel is all it really takes. Back when I was first learning to drive, in fact it was when I had my learner’s licence, dad would toss me the keys and tell me I was driving. Whether it was good weather, muddy grid roads (without much gravel where we lived), or snowy/icy roads, I got the keys. Dad’s a great teacher and I learned how to drive on ice and snow to the point that if I start fishtailing in my truck while driving I keep calm and get back on point. Moving between neutral and drive is second nature while stopping in icy/snowy conditions. So, instead of forcing a costly thing like winter tires on us, which have to be changed before the first snowfall and taken off in the spring, and have to be replaced after they’ve been worn out, why not teach Canadian driving lessons instead. Find a place to drive on ice, have people actually learn in a safe environment how to handle a vehicle and correct it if something goes wrong. The end of the year comes with bills rolling in and gifts to be bought, it’s not a time to be looking at a costly legislated item forced upon you. I’m told winter tires are an amazing thing, which they probably are and I’ve talked about getting them, but I have good all-season tires and am confident in being able to handle my vehicle on the road. Quebec was the first province where snow tires were made into being mandatory. They must be on your vehicle from Dec. 15, to March 15 of the following year. Some of B.C. has followed suit. But, people who are nervous drivers can become overconfident with winter tires on. They don’t make you invincible on snow and ice, and a winter driving school may be more beneficial than forcing people to get winter tires. By creating winter driving classes instead, we educate people, and after they know what they’re doing it’ll stick with them throughout their life. It would be a onetime cost to vehicle owners, which in rural areas is pretty much everyone 16-years-old and up, and not a cost you continually have to be budgeting for. Lessons would be on avoiding sudden braking, travelling with more distance between you and the vehicle in front of you than usual, and signalling earlier to let people know your intentions so they don’t come up quickly from somewhere expecting you to be doing something when you planned something else. All in all, winter tires are an awesome idea to purchase once the leaves start falling and the temperatures drop, but should the government really be able to force you into buying them?

Observer Staff

Sometimes, I approach writing this column with caution and restraint. Although it’s meant to be a lighthearted-and hopefully, entertaining read-Kelly and I are often put in the position of defending or disagreeing with a point of view that is not in alignment with our true feelings on the topic(s) in question. And even though there’s a disclaimer in print that states; “The views expressed in ‘Seeing Things Differently’ are for discussion purposes and are not necessarily the views of the writers,” I still find myself hedging my bets on the side of caution, with one eye on future Google searches. (I know, I know, I flatter myself...) However, I have come up with a topic this week that I am passionate about: snow tires. They are, in my humble opinion, lifechanging (yes, really!) and although I sometimes strongly disagree with too much government regulation, I think we should all have ‘em. And I also don’t think it’s out of line to legally require drivers to have them installed on their vehicles during the winter months in most parts of this country. Currently, Quebec is the only province in Canada where drivers are required by law to have winter tires installed on their vehicles (between December 15 and March 15 every year). I won’t bore you with statistics, but let’s just say that this legal requirement has not made anyone a less-safe driver on La Belle Province’s winter roads. And now that I’ve spared you potentially boring stats, dear reader, I will bore you with my personal experience driving with proper winter tires. In Calgary, I slid around for years, white-knuckling it with all-season tires on slippery city streets. When I finally converted to snow tires, the difference-and stopping distance-was amazing. Think of snow tires as winter boots for your vehicle. Would you go out for a winter stroll on icy, snowy roads with a pair of summer sandals? I thought not. Snow tires are the automotive equivalent of wearing a great pair of winter boots, complete with grips. They’ll get you where you need to go-safely and with much less stress. A safety check is already required to licence a vehicle in this province and inspection tickets are handed out for all kinds of things-including relatively trivial stuff such as window tint. Snow tires are comparable to seatbelts, as far as enhancing safety. Not only will they lessen your chance of an accident, your winter driving experience will be, well, life-changing. Take my word for it.

Looking forward to the off-season over”. He felt, at 0-5, the worst was behind them. However as it turned out, it was just getting started. So now the home portion of the 2015 schedule is behind the Riders, and their ledger while defending their turf finished at 2-7. The paid attendance was 30,488 Saturday night however an optimistic guess at the actual bums in the seats would be 22,000. Kudos to the fans who did show up, because they all seemed to be having a great time. But when the effects of the Pilsner wore off, reality had to set in for them too. The wont - from this blogger and broadcaster’s corner - is to start looking ahead now. Let’s get the 2015 post-mortem written and start examining the challenges ahead. They begin with naming a General Manager, a head coach, and then retooling the roster. But we can’t. There are still two road games remaining against opponents who have an infinite amount of things to play for. The first is this Saturday in Calgary against a Stampeders team which is challenging for first place in the CFL West. They’re only a game back of Edmonton. And then the season finishes with a date in Montreal on Sunday, November 8 against an Alouettes team which is clamouring for a crossover playoff berth. They also currently have the CFL’s second-longest postseason streak dating back to 1996. Perhaps now the pain for the Riders is indeed gone. All that’s left is playing out the string but the days right now are agonizingly long. There’s so much to look forward to this offseason! But right now the days are going by like weeks.

Fast start has Habs’ fans excited By Bruce Penton Someone hijacked this column two weeks ago and reportedly wrote something ridiculous about the possibility of Columbus and Winnipeg meeting in the Stanley Cup final next June. The authorities are investigating. What was meant, of course, was to proclaim the Montreal Canadiens may be the best team in the National Hockey League by the length of couple of Alex Ovechkin slapshots. The Habs roared to nine consecutive wins to start the season and then, while these words were being finalized, headed west to visit Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary within a space of four days. The NHL record for victories to start a season is 10, by the 2006-07 Buffalo Sabres and, believe it or not, the 1993-94 Toronto Maple Leafs. Could Carey Price, P.K. Subban, Max Pacioretty and company be 12-0 when they return to the Bell Centre for a November homestead? Certainly seems possible. Not only are the Canadiens winning, they’re winning impressively — allowing just 12 goals in their first nine games, and outscoring their opponents by a 3-1 ratio. Price, last year’s Vezina (best goalie) and Hart (most valuable) trophy winner, posted a 1.29 goals-against average with an other-worldly .961 save percentage through Montreal’s early winning streak. (By comparison, his trophy-winning numbers last year were 1.96 and .933). Dale Weise, the Habs forward whose coffee might have been spiked with something psychedelic, said Price is not only the best player in the NHL today — a statement to which many experts nod in agreement — but perhaps the best player of all time. Whoa, Dale! In the name of Wayne Gretzky, just hold your horses. Weise did say to the Montreal Gazette, however, that Montreal goes into every game with four lines capable of scoring, plus a solid defence, led by the flamboyant Subban and veteran Andrei Markov. And if the opposition gets through that defence, there’s the brick wall covering the net. This flashy start has made Habs’ fans all across Canada absolutely giddy. There hasn’t been talk of 82-0 quite yet, but 80-2 and 79-3 have come up in conversation. It’s a long year, but it’s shaping up as a year that could end with a Stanley Cup parade down SteCatherine Street. RJ Currie of sportsdeke.co after the Rockets’ James Harden told NBA. com he’s the best player in the NBA and should have been last season’s MVP: “Is it possible for someone’s beard to be too tight?”

Posted a .561 OPS, 200 points under his career average. Somewhere, Pete Rose is limbering up.” • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: ”In NBA news, Grizzlies forward Matt Barnes and Knicks coach Derek Fisher — dating Barnes’ estranged wife — got into it during a party at the ex’s house. Prosecutor are still mulling whether to charge them with a love-triangle offence.” Comedy writer Jim Barach: “A fantasy ball player has filed a lawsuit against FanDuel and DraftKings accusing the fantasy game sites of negligence, fraud and false advertising. Since the action involves fake teams and games, the suit was filed in Hollywood and will be heard by Judge Judy.” Doug Ferguson of Associated Press, on Twitter: “Sherman Santiwiwatthanaphong won on the Symetra Tour. Her surname allows for no further details on Twitter.” Norman Chad of the Washington Post, on Jose Bautista’s infamous bat-flipping incident in the clinching game over Texas: “I would have preferred the Blue Jays’ Jose Bautista hand the bat to the batboy while running down the first base line — attaching a short note of apology to the pitcher for ruining his day.” Randy Turner of the Winnipeg Free Press, on Twitter: “FYI, original premise of Back to Future 2 was for Marty McFly to travel to Oct. 21, 2015 to stop Blue Jackets from hiring John Tortorella.” Patriots D-lineman Alan Branch, as told to The New York Times, after Jets tackle Breno Giacomini asked to exchange jerseys with him after a game last season: “You held me long enough. You might as well take it.” On a sign held up by a Royals fan taunting Toronto: “Our mayor smokes ribs, not crack.” Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “The Chinese Communist Party has banned golf, excessive drinking and adultery.

Starting with auditions on Monday, rehearsals throughout the week, and ending with Friday’s final performance, Carlyle Elementary School’s production of Aladdin was a crowd-pleaser. A team from Missoula Children’s Theatre has been visiting the school for over a decade, and each year they aim to instill lessons of both teamwork and individual success during their visits to schools. CES principal Tyler Fehrenbach told the packed house prior to the performance, “It’s amazing how far the kids have come along in one week.” Pictured are some crowd-pleasing penguins.

After a week of hard work and a steep theatrical learning curve, students from Carlyle Elementary School dazzled the audience with their production of Aladdin. Pictured are some of the “Second-Rate Wonders of the World” who-along with their fellow students- put on a first-class performance.

The sailors-along with the rest of the cast-spent the week prior to their Aladdin performance honing their acting, singing and dancing skills, to the delight of their audience.

Alameda Gas Plant: proposed project to benefit area economically and environmentally By Kelly Running Directive S-10, which focuses on reducing flaring, incinerating, and venting associated gas, was fully instituted this summer by the Government of Saskatchewan. In relation to this Steel Reef – a mid-stream company from Alberta – has been planning a gas plant near Alameda to capture and process off-gas from local batteries. The company hosted an Open House on Tuesday, Oct. 27, for the general public and spoke to The Observer about the project earlier this month. “We’re a mid-stream company, meaning that we work in the oil and gas industry, but we only own plants, pipelines, and batteries, and other infrastructure, we don’t actually own any of the production itself,” Austin Voss, Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Steel Reef explained. “It’s not as common a thing in Canada to have mid-streamers, but it’s a pretty standard practice to have a third party take some of the infrastructure off of the producers. A good example in the area is Enbridge, they’re a downstream company, but they provide the infrastructure for oil and gas companies to transport their product.” Steel Reef is a relatively new company in the scheme of the oilfield having been founded in late 2012. “The president, Scott Southward, and I were from Keyera, a mid-stream company with most of its assets in Alberta,” Voss said. “We left Keyera

in 2012, and hooked up with another gentleman by the name of Lane McKay and from there we started Steel Reef.” The company has been working in southeastern Saskatchewan for awhile now as they built the North Portal Gas Plant and have already expanded that plant as well. Voss happily spoke about the upcoming project to be located six and a half kilometres northwest of the Town of Alameda (NE-08-04-03-W2M) and the push in Saskatchewan for gas plants following Directive S-10. “I think the big thing is there’s been a push, certainly in that area, to really start curtailing flaring,” Voss said. “In general the government, the Ministry of Economy, has put forth new rules saying you have to conserve gas from flaring if it meets certain economic thresholds and this is one of the first areas they’re really trying to embrace those rules I think.” “The sour gas production sure makes land owner complaints more likely and it is more of a pollutant, a gas plant will reduce this. In general there’s getting to be more and more gas from some of these new reservoirs people are finding with new technologies; so, in Alameda there was a producer that had enough gas that it made sense to put in a gas plant and a few other producers in the area also need the gas plant. From a producer’s perspective, they don’t want to put all of their capital into a relatively expensive piece of infrastructure like a gas

With Directive S-10 in full effect in Saskatchewan which calls for a reduction of flaring, incinerating, and venting associated gas. A need for infrastructure to extract and process gas is therefore needed and in relation to this a proposed gas plant is being looked at northwest of Alameda. (Archived photo)

From Page 16 - Gas Plant plant, so we partner with them. We’ll own the plant and charge them a fee to use it.” Voss continued to explain that the plant has been designed to process 10 million standard cubic feet of gas per day, “That’s the amount of gas that we should be taking through the inlet of the plant that will no longer be flared. It’s not a huge gas plant, but it’s medium sized for Saskatchewan standards.” The gas plant benefits the area in both economical ventures as well as environmentally. “It depends on oil production, but it’s quite a few flares that will now go through the plant,” Voss said. “The plant takes sour gas, the H2S out of it, and the natural gas liquids, so propane and butane and the heavier parts out, compresses the gas, and that clean gas goes into the TransGas Transmission System in Saskatchewan.” “Saskatchewan is a net importer of gas, so this gives them a domestic supply of natural gas for Saskatchewan. The liquids are marketable, so they go to sale, and the H2S, in this case is relatively small, is taken out of the gas and it is going to be flared off site. The H2S being flared is less than half a percent than the volume coming in, so instead of flaring 10 million standard cubic feet of gas per day, we’ll be flaring a twentieth of that, it will be a very small amount that ends up being flared after the plant is operational.” During the construction phase they expect between 40-80 people in total to be on site throughout construction and it will take approximately six months to complete beginning with top soil stripping and building the lease this fall before construction is fully underway in January or February of 2016. Voss explains there will be construction activity which will have a short term impact to the area, but adds on that long term impacts are minimal. “During the actual construction, it is quite the undertaking, and will take a good six months of activity at the site, it won’t be busy the whole time, but there’ll be activity for around six months,” Voss stated. “During construction there is definitely a lot more traffic to the spot, at certain points we’re hauling out big, big equipment, but that’s only for a short time, maybe a few days or a week to haul out the equipment. There’ll be about 30 people on average showing up at the site to do work. That has an impact, but it’s short term.” “The long term impacts are pretty minimal. One of them is the elimination of a lot of flaring which is generally positive which eliminates sound, odour, and light. Depending on where they live it may or may not have more of an impact. I know at North Portal when we have to shut down certain land owners don’t like it because that’s when flaring increases again, so we can see the impacts of minimal flaring to having to turn the flares back on, you really see a difference there and that’s definitely a positive impact.” “The other thing is, there is a little bit of noise generated from the plant, but it’s quite well managed and the equipment is all very new. It’s not like the old compressors once used, we’re putting in new compressors so they have mufflers and noise reduction on them. We go through a noise impact assessment to make sure we’re not negatively impacting the area and although Saskatchewan doesn’t have quite the same rules as Alberta, we’re very used to the regulatory regime of Alberta, and

we use the same process.” Once the plant is constructed four to six positions at the plant will open up for jobs in the area as operators will be needed to manage the plant. “Long term we’ll have four to six operators at the plant, but the other thing is there is always maintenance and our budget at a plant like that is relatively large for all things,” Voss said. Overall Voss and Steel Reef are enjoying their time working in southeast Saskatchewan “We’re excited to continue to have great projects down in this area,” Voss stated. “It’s probably close to half the value of our company that is in this area and we’re excited to keep working there. We think it’s a growth area and a really great place to do business, it allows us to deal with a smaller group of regulatory

landowners and producers. It’s a very relationship focused area, so we like it for a lot of reasons and the idea is that we want to continue to maintain these relationships.”

Directive S-10 fully applies as of July 1, 2015

By Kelly Running In 2011, the Government of Saskatchewan released Directive S-10, Saskatchewan Upstream Petroleum Industry Associated Gas Conservation Directive. This Directive focuses on

regulatory requirements surrounding the petroleum industry through reductions in ﬂaring, incinerating, and venting associated gas. Although it was ﬁrst put into effect on July 1, 2011, the Directive only

recently has been fully implemented. In 2011 the Directive affected all new oil wells and facilities licensed on or later than July 1, 2012. Recently, as of July 1, 2015, the Directive has been implemented for all oil wells and facilities licensed prior to July 1, 2012. The Directive was created by the Government of Saskatchewan according to the introduction of the S-10 document created by the Ministry of Energy and Resources for “ensuring that the Saskatchewan upstream oil and gas industry maintain and lead its competitive position amongst Canadian energy producing provinces while ensuring that the development occurs in an environmentally responsible manner. It is important that the Government and the upstream oil and gas industry develop proactive plans for reducing greenhouse gas emissions that are practical, applicable, and economical.” “Conservation of flared and vented associated gas could also allow Saskatchewan to realize significant economic benefit. The economic benefits include new investments made to develop gas gathering systems and

gas processing infrastructures to collect and process the conserved associated gas.” The document continues, “By reducing flaring and venting of associated gas the public’s health and quality of living is enhanced through improvements to air quality, protection of water resources, and topsoil resources.” Therefore the introduction of Directive S-10 is two-fold: it focuses on becoming more environmentally friendly while also recovering associated gas to process and sell. Testing on oil wells and facilities conducted will stipulate whether or not the site will be able to flare or vent gas. If a combination of flaring and venting volumes do not exceed 900 cubic metres per day, then the site is not required to conserve the associated gas. However, if the site exceeds 900 cubic metres per day they are required to conserve the associated gas. Additionally if a new residence is built within 500 metres of an existing associated gas flare then the licensee must provide information to the new

The Government of Saskatchewan created Directive S-10 in 2011 and as of July 1, 2015, it has been fully implemented requiring the petroleum industry to capture gas reducing the amount of flaring, incinerating, and venting of associated gas previously done.

Ron Carson honoured for philanthropic efforts By Kelly Running Ron Carson, founder of Carson Energy Services and past recipient of the Saskatchewan Order of Merit, is very focused when it comes to giving back to the area which helped his business grow over the years. His efforts has led to him being named this year’s Outstanding Philanthropist in the Regina area for the 2015 National Philanthropy Day Regina Award Luncheon. Carson was nominated for the award by the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation in Estevan.

The letter of nomination written by Becky Conly, Executive Director of the Foundation, stated, “In June of 2014, the St. Joseph’s Hospital was granted approval from the Ministry of Health for CT Scanner Services. This made the St. Joseph’s Hospital of Estevan the ﬁrst hospital with non-regional status in the history of Saskatchewan to oﬀer CT Scanner Services. With this approval came the task of raising $2.2 million to purchase the CT scanner and to renovate the existing area of the St. Joseph’s Hospital where the equipment would

From Page 20 - Carson be used.” The Foundation approached Carson in hopes that he would support their efforts. Being very supportive of the project, Carson decided to donate $500,000 to the CT Scanner Fundraising Campaign. “He told us that he truly believed in this cause, knowing that a CT Scanner would save so many lives in Southeast Saskatchewan,” Conly writes. “Ron explained to us that his customers, staff and family all use the St. Joseph’s Hospital, and this was his way of saying ‘Thank You,’ and giving back to the residents of Southeast Saskatchewan after they have been so kind to him.” “His philanthropic spirit made the dream of the St. Joseph’s hospital into a reality,” she added. “We are now very close to our goal, and CT Scanner Services are set to commence in November 2015.” Carson will be honoured on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at the 2015 National Philanthropy Day Regina Awards Luncheon. In addition to the philanthropic efforts which led to him being recognized this year, Carson recently accepted a fundraising challenge from STARS. In August he participated in a “Jail and Bail” type fundraiser called Rescue on the Prairie where Carson was dropped off in a remote location to participate in various challenges alongside five others focused on fundraising for the non-profit group. “STARS has an operating cost of $21 million and that’s per year,” Carson explained to The Observer earlier this year. “So they have to raise half of that each year because they’re a non-profit organization, and our government supports the other half. We need STARS in Saskatchewan, they do about seven or eight heli-trips per day between Saskatoon and Regina, so it’s well used and it’s available to anyone in need of the service, it’s for everybody.” The challenge asked six influential Saskatchewan residents to raise $50,000 each. When The Observer spoke with Carson earlier this year, he stated, “Our personal challenge within the company is to raise $150,000 and I see no reason why we won’t make it a go.” In the end Carson surpassed his personal goal for the company by raising a total of $224,997.50 for STARS. “It’s a pleasure to be here and be able to

PETROLEUM WEEK raise these funds for STARS,” Carson told the organizers of the event. “We’ve done well, thanks to all the people out there who have been contributing.” Carson founded his company Carson Energy Services in 1974 in Lampman. Beginning with a total of eight people it has since grown to 1,500 employees operating from Alberta across Saskatch-

ewan and into Manitoba. In 2011 the business was acquired by Flint URS and has continued to diversify. Carson’s success is rooted in rural Saskatchewan and it remains a place where his eﬀorts to better his community and the lives of people in rural areas continues.

October Land Sale Yields $9.8 Million

Released on October 8, 2015 The October sale of petroleum and natural gas rights raised $9.8 million in revenue for the province at an average price of $220 per hectare. After ﬁve sales in 2015, land sale revenues total $45.5 million. “The long-term viability of Saskatchewan’s oil patch relies on new discoveries,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. ”The province is cautiously optimistic that exploration activities on the lands acquired will prove successful.” The October sale saw the Weyburn-Estevan area receive the most bids with sales of $6.7 million. The Lloydminster area was next at $1.8 million, followed by the Kindersley-Kerrobert area at $1.0 million and the Swift Current area at $357,844. The highest price paid for a single parcel was $832,355. Triland Energy Inc. acquired the 259-hectare lease west of Willmar. The highest price on a per-hectare basis was $10,045. Scott Land & Lease Ltd. bid $650,449 for a 64.75-hectare lease east of Stoughton. “It is encouraging that under-explored areas of the province continue to attract the attention of industry,” Boyd said. “Saskatchewan’s investment climate is proving very attractive even at a time of volatile prices.” The four exploration licences and one lease that sold for $2.0 million southwest of Weyburn are

Government Approves SaskEnergy Rate Changes; Customers to See Lower Bills January 1

Released on October 21, 2015 The Government of Saskatchewan today approved the Saskatchewan Rate Review Panel’s recommendations for SaskEnergy’s adjustments to both its Commodity and Delivery Service rates. However, the changes will now be implemented January 1, 2016, when residential customers will experience an overall decrease of $4.42 per month or $53 annually. The government delayed the rate changes from November 1, 2015, as the outstanding balance in SaskEnergy’s Gas Cost Variance Account (GCVA) will not be fully recovered until January 2016. The GCVA tracks the diﬀerence between what SaskEnergy pays to purchase customers’ gas from producers on the open market and rates charged to customers. The account had accumulated a $34 million deﬁcit coming out of the severe winter of

2013/2014. SaskEnergy anticipated the GCVA to be down to at least $5 million by November 1 when the application was ﬁled this past spring, but more than double this amount still remains at $11 million as of November 1, 2015. “SaskEnergy requires a two month extension to continue repaying this account as less natural gas has been used by customers due to warmer than average weather in the spring and fall of 2015,” Minister responsible for SaskEnergy Jim Reiter said. “With the GCVA fully recovered, the corporation will be able to provide the rate protection and stability customers depend upon during what is often the coldest winter months and the most volatile pricing on the commodity markets. “When SaskEnergy changed its rates in July 2014, it projected up to 24 months would be required to recover the GCVA. A January 1 imple-

mentation is still six months ahead of overall projections.” The changes include a decrease to its Commodity Rate from $4.84/GJ to $4.30/GJ and an increase of 4.5 per cent to its Delivery Service Rate. For residential customers, an increase in the basic monthly charge of $1.75 will be offset by a lower commodity cost. “SaskEnergy is able to pass savings along to customers while, at the same time, continuing to invest in important public safety and pipeline integrity initiatives,” Reiter said. “SaskEnergy will still offer the lowest residential delivery rates of any natural gas utility in Canada and will maintain its competitiveness by managing cost pressures through future productivity improvements and internal efficiency measures.”

Celebrating growth: Crescent Point’s success in southeast

By Kelly Running Crescent Point Energy has been a very supportive company in Carlyle and the surrounding area over the years. Recently they built a new building in Carlyle and are focused on growth and celebrated a grand opening earlier this year. Crescent Point was first established in Calgary in 2001 by current President and CEO, Scott Saxberg. Beginning by raising money the company would first acquire assets in Alberta, but the year after it was founded Crescent Point obtained an acquisition in Manor, SK, and has been a factor in the area ever since. In 2003 Crescent Point continued to grow its interests in southeast Saskatchewan with acquisitions south of Weyburn and elsewhere in the area. In 2006 they obtained what Ryan Gritzfeldt, VP of Engineering and Business Development East, said was “a significant acquisition in the Bakken.” With an emphasis on growth it was in 2009 when Crescent Point took over Talisman’s southeast Saskatchewan assets. With this acquisition came Talisman’s Carlyle office, which turned out to be the perfect location for Crescent Point. “We decided to keep that office going,” Gritzfeldt explained. “Carlyle is a great location for us and a great community. I was actually a student who worked for Talisman in 1995 and then I worked as a field engineer, so I worked in the old office and got to know the community.” With growth in mind, the small Talisman office was soon outgrown and a larger office building was needed. “We opened a new office in Weyburn fiveyears ago, and it was designed for future growth,” Gritzfeldt said. “Thinking back to Weyburn in 2010 that office was only half filled and now five-years later it’s packed as well.” “Our Carlyle office should hold 70 staff, and we’re only close to half right now, maybe 40, so when we began planning this office we kept Weyburn in mind and designed Carlyle’s for future growth as well.” Gritzfeldt explained that the company has grown quickly beginning just over 13 years ago with zero barrels of oil produced to now producing 150,000 barrels per day. “Carlyle is our central location,” he continued. “We’ve had successful growth in the area and have assets west in the Bakken, east into Manitoba, as well as north and south. It’s a good location for us and we’re excited to give our staff a bright and spacious place to work there.” Ground for the new building was broken in April 2014, although planning began in 2012. The new building which stands at the intersection of Hwy 9 north and Hwy 13 is approximately 20,000 square feet within its two-storey layout. Within the building are meeting areas, a large board room as well as a smaller board room, numerous offices, a cubicle area for consultants and summer students, and a kitchen. “It’s part of the culture we have here, we want people to come together and not just be hunkered down in their offices,” explained Barb Morrison, Team Lead Corporate Facilities.

Many people from Carlyle and the surrounding area attended to learn more about the new structure in town.

Crescent Point continues to enjoy a mutually beneﬁcial relationship in southeastern Saskatchewan with an oﬃce in Carlyle and are committed to the area. “We look forward to continuing our investments in community initiatives such as BoogieFest, the Crescent Point Leisure Complex, Classroom Champions, and more,” Anna Palmiere, Community Relations Advisor, explained. “We have several years left of drilling inventory in the area and we look forward to continued successful growth,” Gritzfeldt added.

Low world oil prices to slow growth of Canadian oil production

The sharp drop in world oil prices over the past year is slowing the growth of Canadian oil production over the next two decades, the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers announced today in its 2015 Crude Oil Forecast, Markets and Transportation report. CAPP estimates production of Canadian oil will increase 43 per cent over 16 years, growing to 5.3 million barrels per day by 2030, up from 3.7 million barrels per day in 2014. Increased transportation capacity, in all forms, is therefore needed to meet growing domestic and international demand for Canadian oil. CAPP’s June 2014 forecast estimated total oil production in 2030 at 6.4 million barrels per day.

While the two forecasts are similar during the early years of the forecast period, the slower pace of production in the latter years is the result of reduced capital spending intentions due to the sharp decline in global oil prices. “Demand for Canadian oil in Eastern Canada, the United States and globally remains strong,” said Greg Stringham, CAPP’s vice-president, oil sands and markets. The International Energy Agency reports global demand for energy, including oil, is expected to grow 37 per cent over the next 25 years. Canada has 173 billion barrels of oil, the third-largest proven reserve in the world. However, today Canada only produces 3.7 million barrels of the 93 million bar-

rels consumed every day around the world. “We have the energy the world needs – our challenge is getting it there,” Stringham said. “Connecting Canada’s growing supplies to these markets safely and competitively is a top priority. Over the next two decades, we believe all forms of transportation will still be needed to move Canadian oil to markets to the east, west and south.” The oil sands remain the primary driver of oil growth in Canada, with production reaching four million barrels per day by 2030. Conventional oil production in Western Canada, including condensates, is projected at 1.3 million barrels per day by

market uncertainty is reﬂected most in the oil sands growth range in this year’s forecast. The range indicates future projects are under review. Total oil and natural gas industry capital investment is forecast at $45

billion in 2015, down nearly 40 per cent from $73 billion in 2014. In the oil sands, 2015 capital investment is forecast to be lower by almost a third to $23 billion compared to $33 billion in 2014. Market access in all directions remains priority Refineries in Quebec and Atlantic Canada currently import nearly 80 per cent of their oil from foreign sources. The U.S. Gulf Coast, the largest refining cluster in the world with significant capacity to process heavy crude oil, is a major potential growth market for Canadian heavy oil. There is also a strong and growing demand for Canadian oil in Washington, California, Asia and Europe. To reach these markets, more transportation capacity and tidewater access are required.

“Several pipeline projects are at various stages in the regulatory process,” Stringham said. “These projects target three diﬀerent markets and would provide Canadian producers with the market access necessary to become a truly global supplier.” While pipelines remain the primary transportation mode for large crude oil volumes over long periods of time, delays in the startup dates for all pipeline proposals mean railways will continue to be used as a complement to pipeline transportation. CAPP’s annual forecast is developed from oil producer survey data, collected in March and April 2015, and CAPP analysis of historical trends, expected drilling activity, recent announcements and ongoing discussions with industry stakeholders and government agencies.

Authors visit Kindy to grade two students for Education Week Kelly Running Observer Staff

Touring the southeast during education week, Sheryl Kennett-Garrett and Ione Krainyk were welcomed into numerous schools to read their books to students in Kindergarten to grade two. Locally they stopped by Manor School and Carlyle Elementary School where the children sat engrossed in the two tales. Krainyk read a true story which was written by her sisters, Zelda Luchenski and Nona McMillan, and illustrated by Krainyk, about Penelope: The House of Pretend. “My grandpa built that playhouse for us. My grandparents had 18 grandchildren all within seven miles of Fillmore,” explained Krainyk to The Observer previously. “We played in it, we had birthday parties in it. Later on, it became a bunkhouse at White Bear Lake and my grandma had it set up with two double beds and two little camp beds, so six of us could sleep there. When my grandma passed away, the playhouse went back to Fillmore and became my mom’s garden shed. When my mom was passing away, she made me promise to take it and use it as a playhouse for her great-grandchildren to play in and now, it’s in my yard and my grandchildren play in it.”

A story about her family and how her grandfather, with help from his grandkids and a neighbour, built a playhouse for his grandchildren. The children enjoyed the story and asked questions about the story. Children also enjoyed a second story by Kennett-Garrett who wrote Grandma’s Quilts, which is the story about a little girl and her grandmother. Although she drew inspiration from her life in writing the story, it was a work of ﬁction. “Two years ago I wrote the book, I was substituting in a Kindergarten class and I remembered I had saved a story from when I was a teacher,” Kennett-Garrett said. “I used to write while my students wrote and I remembered I had this story, so I went back and found it, and revised it some.” The students were quite excited to listen to the two stories and were wowed by the storytellers. Both came dressed in costume, their apron pockets containing a handkerchief, Krainyk’s bunched up in the way her grandmother used to stuﬀ it in her pocket, and Kennett-Garrett’s carefully folded up in the way her grandmother used to keep her handkerchief. A fun way to enjoy education week the youth enjoyed the opportunity to meet the two women and listen to their stories.

With props for “Grandma’s Quilt” reading, students are amazed at the beautiful quilts Sheryl Kennett-Garrett brings out.

Alida News Submitted by Edel Cowan

Gail McLachlin went to Calgary for Thanksgiving, spending the weekend with her daughter Grace, Luke Mckenna and her granddaughter Thea. Gail enjoyed the excellent Thanksgiving supper prepared by her son Mitchell Cowie and Andrea Gohm. Lorne Junk has returned from a holiday trip to Alberta where he visited with his son Todd and family, and with daughter Crystal, Jay Steeves and family. In route home he stopped in Moose Jaw to visit with his sister Ardyth and Mike Philipation, who have just recently moved there. Jason, April Junk and family attended the rodeo at the winter fair in Brandon on Saturday, October 24. There was nice small crowd that attended the Harvest “Whined” Up Supper on Saturday, October 24 at Alida Hall. Everyone there seemed to enjoy the delicious food as always and the Rec. Board had a successful evening. Murray and Adam Cowan (Estevan) visited over the weekend (October 24-25) at the Cowan farm with Gray and Edel and also with Tim. Leonard and Lillian Patton visited on Sunday, October 25 with her brother Joe and Donna Molner in Kennedy. They all attended the fall supper in Kipling. I received word that Jeannette (Lynch) Blackburn had passed away in Texas – sincere

sympathy is extended to all family members. Another foggy morning – does it really mean that we’ll have another rainy day this coming spring? Gee if so we may just have a wet spring, which I hope not, at least not TOO wet. Our fall weather has been fairly nice so far and the men are pleased with that, as they are getting a lot of fall work done in the ﬁeld – burning and working down those abundant amounts of cattails and foxtail areas that are out there. We are now on the last week in October so guess one can expect the weather to change some, but hope that it will be nice for the trick ‘n’ treaters that will be out and about soon. If you’re looking for something to do on Friday, October 30 come spend some time at the Alida Hall at the Halloween dance and make sure to wear your costume. Keep a close watch out for the little goblins that will likely be out on Saturday – they will be all excited about being dressed up in their special costume and going about trick ‘n’ treating. Happy Halloween everyone! Keep the news coming in – remember to call (306-443-2496) or text (306-485-8561) or e-mail (g.cowan@sasktel.net) with your news, I do appreciate your input. Until next time – Keep smiling – Think positive – Drive safely and Take care.

Wawota News Submitted by Myrna Olson

Kay Dorrance was accompanied by her daughters, Rhonda of Regina and Norma (and her daughter, Julia) of Saskatoon when she travelled to Paradise Valley to visit daughter Sandra. Jeff Corkish ans son Owen of Cottage Grove, Minn. Spent a week recently visiting with his mother, Shirley Corkish. Jeff spent some time hunting with friends. Congratulations to George and Eleanor Hodgins of Niverville, MN. on their 65 wedding anniversary on October 20th. They were Fairmede residents before moving to Kennedy for several years and have recently moved to Niverville. Sympathy to the family and friends of the late Inger (Sorenson) Wilson who passed away on Oct. 19 in her 94th year. She was Lester Wilson’s widow. They had lived in the Swanson School District for more than 30 years before retiring to Wawota in 1974. After Lester’s passing in 1975 Inger continued to live in Wawota and then moved to the Villa in Maryfield before being admitted to the Integrated Care Home in Moosomin. As per her wishes the funeral service and committal will be private. Sympathy to Bev Shire and family on the passing of Don Shire. He passed away on Oct 16 at the age of 83 years. He spent all of his life in the Kelso and Wawota area. His funeral service was held at the Wawota Town hall on Oct. 20 with

interment in the Wawota Cemetery. Two families I missed when I mentioned that several families had moved away. The Morissette family, Michael, Christine, Michael Jr., Matthew and Lisa who were living with Grandma Geraldine Kidson have moved to Regina. Lori Kemmer has also moved to Regina where she has secured employment. Cher’s former co-worker Mary Morgan and her friend Randy Bonn from Kenosha, Wisconsin visited with Tom and Cher Badger for a few days this month. They enjoyed seeing this part of the country and especially enjoyed shopping in Wawota. Mary told Cher that she was so surprised to see such a nice furniture store in a small town and remarked on how fun the girls were. She also wanted Marie Jensen to know how much they are enjoying their new mats! On Oct. 24 many friends along the mail route from Regina to Maryﬁeld gathered with family and friends at the Vibank Community Hall to pay their respects to the late Dana Kelln. Dana passed away Oct. 17 at the age of 66 years. He began delivering the mail for Canada Post in 1989 and he was a conscientious and hard working individual. He often had a story to tell and we enjoyed his sense of humour. Sympathy to his family, Nadine, Allison and Darren and their families. He will be missed!!

Kennedy/Langbank News Submitted by Doreen Cancade

This past week has certainly given us nice weather. It’s the contrasts that give life its texture, sunlight and shadows are parts of the same plan. Friday will always be a remembrance for Shirley Langenberger with the lovely day for the funeral of Barry and all the people who came out to support the family, neighbors and relatives are always very helpful in times of sorrow. Bonnie Kell reported that there was a very good attendance for the tea held in Vibank on Sat. for the late Dana Kelln, many post masters of yesterday and today were in attendance, which showed the family their appreciation of Danaí’s dedication to his work. Clarence Bender accompanied his son Curtis andDon grandson Spe Caleb to Saskatoon for the Sask. Cell: 483Provincial Cycling race, held on the Nov. 17th Ken McC weekend. Caleb placed third in this 485 race and attendedCell: the National team contest in Winnipeg this past weekend. At the time of sending

this little clip to me Clarence did not know exactly where he placed, however, congratulations and good luck as you continue your racing Caleb. Congratulations to Norbert Beaujot for being elected for EY Entrepreneur for Saskatchewan for agriculture and environment, the weekend of October 23rd this event took place in Calgary, Alberta. Hope fully this will be a larger column next week. In the meantime please contact me with news items. I do have lots of comments about enjoying home town news (out of town folks) plus it keeps the local papers busy. You travel a lonely road when you are concerned only for yourself. Enjoy November, treasure the sunny days, they’ll get you through the dark times. Recent visitors at the home of Joe and Esther Barsi were Julia and Nola Neumann of Edmonton, Gerry and Dorothy Barsi of Regina, Steve and JoAnne Oszust of Regina, Tara, Katalyn and Mason Barsi of Moose Jaw.

milestones

Every life is a story. There are milestones that we can’t wait to share, while there are others that we wish we didn’t have to. These stages of life are an undeniable part of the human journey, and we invite you to share yours with us in our weekly Life’s Milestones.

Are you celebrating an anniversary or birth, or you’d like to announce your engagement? Is your youngest child graduating, or perhaps a colleague is retiring? Has a loved one passed away, or would you like to remember one in some special way?

ANNIVERSARY HAPPY 50th ANNIVERSARY

Vern & Colleen Knutson Oct. 23, 1965 - 2015 Love your families

OBITUARIES Jan Susan Prosofsky It is with profound sadness and disbelief that the family of Jan Susan Prosofsky announce her passing in the Regina General Hospital, succumbing to cancer on October 18, 2015 with her loving children by her side. Her loss was sudden as Jan never revealed her sickness to anyone. She did not want to burden her family. We were all unaware of her suffering and truly shocked by her unexpected passing. Jan was born in Regina on June 29, 1956, the 6th child of Joseph and Jean Prosofsky. The family moved to Medicine Hat in 1962 where Jan began her education at St. Mary’s Catholic School. She later attended McCoy High School where she excelled in track and field. Jan loved to run and play as if nothing could stop her. After her extended travels around the world, Jan eventually moved back to Alberta where she held an assortment of jobs, including being the first female lease hand in the oilfield. She then moved on to British Columbia where her three children were born. After a few years, Jan returned once again to Alberta. She was later employed with Core Association as an aide for individuals with special needs. At the time of her death, Jan was residing in Carlyle Saskatchewan. She was employed with the Moose Mountain Lodge where she loved to cook and take care of the residents. Jan is survived by her children, Chance, her oldest son; Lacy, her beautiful daughter, and Kaleb, her baby boy who she lovingly called “Goonie”, along with Kaleb’s partner, Oolee and Jan’s two stepsons, Dane Fiegal and Chase Fiegal; her brothers, James (Patricia) Prosofsky, Joel (Doris) Prosofsky and Jeffrey Prosofsky; her sisters, Joan Groft, Joy (Garry) Chinook, Julie Prosofsky (Tom Samoila), and June (Chip) Kniss and their adopted, special sister, Marina Prosofsky; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and special friends. She was predeceased by her father, Joseph Prosofsky in July of 1974 and her mother, Jean Holisko Prosofsky in January of 1978; also special loved ones, her adoring brother-in-law, Gordon Groft in October of 2003; Max Samoila in November of 2014 and David Fiegal in April of 2015. Jan will be remembered always by her family and friends. The funeral service for Jan was held in the PATTISON CHAPEL on Friday, October 23, 2015 at 3:00 p.m. with Life Celebrant, David Townsend. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Jan’s memory to the S.P.C.A. - 55 Southwest Drive SW, Medicine Hat, AB T1A 8E8. To e-mail an expression of sympathy, please direct it to: pattfh@telusplanet.net subject heading: Jan Prosofsky, or you may visit www. pattisonfuneralhome.com and leave a message of condolence. Arrangements are by the PATTISON FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORIUM 540 South Railway St. SE, Medicine Hat T1A 2V6. Please call 1-866-526-2214 for further information.

OBITUARIES Mary Breault Mary was born March 18, 1931 to George and Eliza May Lake. She was the oldest girl in her family. She had four brothers, and three sisters. Margaret passed away as a baby and Lovell passed away at age fourteen. She also lost her brother Bill, his three wives and her sister-in-law, Iona Lake and several nieces. Mary will be lovingly remembered by her family, daughter, Lorraine (Laurie) Walbaum and family: Derrick (Risa) Walbaum and Blayke and Cooper; Brett (Kyla) Walbaum and Havyn and Cohen; Michelle (Kirk Wenzel) Walbaum and Rustin; Garett (Chantal) Walbaum and Kenley; daughter, Joanne (Harvey) Smith and family: Duane (Krista Martin) Smith and Taylor, Rylan, Shayla and Rayah; Angela (Kelly) Glow and Smith; Candace (John) Dunham and Rory; daughter, Simone (Conrad Tuchscherer) Breault; son, Paul (Wanda) Breault and family: Christine (James Barnard) Breault and Kaydence, Jordan Carr and Taylor Kopperud; daughter, Denise (Doug) Corrin and family: Bradley Kohl, Cheyne (Nina Kachewnut) Kohl and Nathan (Ann Stewart) Corrin; son, Carl (Cindy) Breault and family: Scott Hagen, Liam Hagen and Porter Breault; son, Jerry (Elaine Yetz) Breault; son, Larry (Annette) Breault and family: Meagan Breault and Ashley Breault; daughter, Monica (Kim) Oltean and son, Kyle Oltean; brothers and sisters: John Lake, Chuck (Beth) Lake, Alice Klien and Verna (Jim Langley) Burk-Langley. Our Mother was a “country girl”, went to a country school, and enjoyed life on the farm. When her brothers went off to war, she stayed home and helped her Mom and Dad with the farm work, as well as housework. She spent winters at her Grandma Kirkby’s in Benson so she could go to school. In the fifties, Alice and Verna would spend the weekdays at Aunt Sarah Hathaway’s in Stoughton so they could go to High School. Mom would come in for the weekends to help Aunt Sarah so Alice and Verna could go home. Even though she only managed to get her Grade 8, she was far more educated than you’d expect. Even though it was hard for her, she kept at her reading of books and magazines. She would always help us as best as she could with all of our homework. I want to tell you a little about Mom’s Love, hard work and sacrifice. Her strength of character was incredible as well as her physical strength and she often pushed it to the limit. She was never concerned about the styles changing because she made her own amazon style. She had a quiet but elegant, and graceful style. She never complained about anything lacking, but tried to fix or make something that would work for whatever she was doing. She always had a back up teakettle in case hers broke down. If she was desp0erate she could always boil water in a pot on the stove to make her tea. She enjoyed the simple pleasures of sitting down with friends or family and having a cup of tea or instant coffee. She never opened her mouth if she couldn’t think of something good to say. Even if she didn’t hear you she always smiled or nodded, and pretended she did. She married Henry Breault on October 19, 1957. Shortly after their family began arriving until she finally had nine children in eleven years. She was always very busy looking after us, helping Dad when he needed help, doing the laundry, sometimes by hand, as well as hauling water and hanging clothes on the clothesline. She always cooked three square meals a day for us. On top of that she always milked 6-8 cows, and separated the cream and sold it. With her little cream cheques she tried to buy us treats and anything else we needed. When we were younger we never once went out to eat, but our treats were whatever great foods our mother made, including homemade ice cream. She was the best cook we could ever ask for. She always made wonderful desserts for every meal. Our children especially remember her homemade donuts and flour (icing sugar) to dip them in and cinnamon cookies. We also liked her shortbread cookies and her awesome flapper pie and tapioca pudding. She loved to bake and that was one skill she taught us how to do even before we were big enough to reach the cupboard. We stirred our cookies on the chair. To this day, most of us still love to bake. Sometimes as we grew up I remember her having such headaches that she couldn’t even eat, but she always provided for the rest of us and if she could fit in a 20 minute nap after lunch, she would. She always made sure that we never went without the necessities even if it meant that she had to stay well past midnight to finish sewing, or mending, or darning socks. Back when they were still on the farm and aging, sometimes they needed help and none of their children were available. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Wayne Colby and Tom Breault for the many, many times that they left what they were doing and come over to help Mom and Dad, and later Mom, with things such as cattle, clearing the snow out of the yard and lane and etcetera. Our mother was the best person we could ever ask for as a Mom. She gave us all the love and learning anyone could ever ask for. She was always hard working, kind, patient beyond belief, independent, caring and nice. As one of her friend said, “The Angels will love her and the Lord will bless her. She was a marvelous lady, such a model of strength and positive energy.” She always smiled no matter what. If she didn’t feel well, she certainly didn’t tell anyone else. She just took another half Advil or a Tylenol and moved on. After she moved to town, she always tried to go for coffee, unless she was opt feeling well. She always was very independent and enjoyed her freedom to do what she wanted when she wanted. She would start making pies one day and when she got too tired, she would just leave it and finish it the next day. If she went for coffee, she might end up staying for supper, especially if someone came in and needed company. She found something to keep her busy all the time. She would look after mowing the lawn, her flowerbeds, and plant her garden, and weed it most of the time all by herself. She always had her little garden in the flowerbed by the door of the house. Then her bigger back garden. She always had a lot of flowers. Everyday she would go out to the garden for at least a half hour or more and pull weeds, and sometimes just to sit on her pail and enjoy the outdoors. She was very conserving and saved everything to use for another purpose. She never threw out anything unless it truly had no use for her, or she had used it several times. She had a great love of life and always tried to make things better for other people. No matter where she went she always took something whether it be a pie, a cake, some cookies, or just a plate of fruit to help others. Most evenings if she wasn’t bust she would find someone to visit, especially Uncle John at the home, and other friends of hers that were in there like Vern Vogel and Laurette Wilkes, or she would go out to Carl’s for supper and then spend some time playing with Porter. He loved it when she played Lego with him. She cooked and cleaned her own house, and sewed and made quilts in earlier years. Later she made mats, knitted sweaters, made blankets for the grandbabies, and presents for people for special occasions. No matter when you saw her she always offered you something to eat, or took you to the restaurant for dinner or supper in the later years. She loved to talk on the phone with all of her children and her sister especially. If the other phone calls were anything like mine it was usually an hour to an hour half of news. She always wanted to fill you in on all the events that happened in the community and who she saw when she went out for coffee or supper, as well as the news from the other people she talked to that week. We will forever miss hearing all about our aunts, uncles, cousins and the community from her. She was the best Mom anyone could ever ask for. We all are so proud to have had Mary as a mother. You will be greatly missed by all of us. Angels will love her… and the Lord will bless her, and all who miss her. A Funeral Service was held Tuesday, October 20, 2015 at 11:00am from Our Lady of LaSalette Roman Catholic Church, Forget Sk. with Father Yodel Cereno officiating. Interment was held at Our Lady of LaSalette Cemetery. A luncheon reception was held at the Royal Canadian Legion in Stoughton Sk. Pallbearers were Derrick Walbaum, Duane Smith, Christine Breault, Bradley Kohl, Scott Hagen, Meagan Breault, and Kyle Oltean. Donations in memory of Mary may be made to the Royal Canadian Legion, Box 548, Stoughton, S0G 4T0, the Stoughton Drop-In Centre, Box 99, S0G 4T0, or a charity of donor’s choice.

Pause for By Ken Rolheiser www.kenrolheiser.com Reflection Walking in love while there is time A man went to the doctor for symptoms he was having. After many tests the doctor called the man into his oﬃce. “What’s the word Doctor? Is it serious?” “I’m sorry,” the doctor said. “Your illness is terminal.” “Tell me, doctor, how long have I got?” “Ten” said the doctor. “Ten what? Ten years? Ten months? Ten weeks? Ten days?” The doctor replied, “nine, eight, seven...” Our time on earth has been described by various comparisons. Father Brendan McGuire used the comparison of a 100 foot rope. “This rope here is our life. The rope represents eternal life… This tiny little section (the ﬁrst 3 inches) here is called life on earth. That’s it. Just that section!” Examples like the above are almost enough to startle us into focus. How am I living my life? What should I be doing? Am I preparing for eternity? David Isay who started Story Corps in 2003 gives us a focus by asking what four things would you would

& Accessible

want to say to someone before you die? The answer: Thank you. I love you. Forgive me. I forgive you. How diﬀerent our lives can be if we remember to say these simple words. Story Corps is based on the idea that everyone has a story to tell. Isay shared his father’s story – his father was gay, but after hearing his dad’s story he had a great love and respect for him. Another Story Corps example involves a mother whose son was killed in gang violence. After meeting her son’s killer, they became mutually supportive and found their lives enriched. The prescription for a good life is simple. Stay in touch with God. Often this is achieved by simply using the Sunday God gave us. “Do not let Sunday be taken from you. If your soul has no Sunday, it becomes an orphan.” Albert Schweitzer Living a good life is simple. Giving witness is simple. Father Franklin Emereuwa shares a story about seminary life where

his spiritual instructor would say, “Let’s go preaching.” They would dress in their clerical robes and simply walk about the streets of the town without saying a word. Giving witness is as simple as showing up. St Francis of Assisi said, “Preach the gospel at all times. Use words if necessary.” The Word Among Us (September 2015) shares this simple prescription. Go beyond your friends and church circle. Go outside your comfort zone. “You don’t need to evangelize; just get to know them, and let them get to know you. Let them see the glory of God dwelling in you so that they, too, will desire to live in such a safe, beautiful kingdom of God.” Much of the crisis of Faith we experience today is because we have forgotten what our forefathers did not forget. A simple prayer like the Angelus which was recited daily, often at the ringing of the village bell made everyone stop and remember our story as Christians. Christmas – “The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary”. Incarnation – “And the Word was made ﬂesh”. Salvation – “That we… may by His passion and cross be brought to the glory of His Resurrection”. Let us remember to walk in God’s love while there is time.

The back side of the desert By Linda Wegner Have you ever felt as if you were wandering somewhere in the back side of the desert? Or, for us coastal dwellers, on some obscure island where the only boat available had been in conﬂict with a reef. I have and, I suspect, so have you. This week I read the story of a fellow I’ll call Mo. This character had so much going for him: a mom who adored him, a childhood immersed in wealth, an education without the cloud of debt and opportunities most of us could only dream about. Mo had it made. In spite of this, he had a kind heart for those less fortunate and, in particular, for a group of people he saw as oppressed and mistreated. In a vain attempt to help them, he ended up murdering a man. Mo ﬂed for his life. To say that he experienced a fall from his former life is too weak; his world collapsed. No longer the centre of attention in the palace where he grew up, he took up the job of sheep herding. Considered the lowliest of professions, he literally wandered in the desert, tasked with making sure the bleating creatures had food and water enough to survive and, hopefully, thrive. In the

you’re right. Moreover, if ever there is an example of someone who’s a recipient of God’s grace, it’s him. The best news is that, in spite of our past, grace is extended to each of us. More about Mo and grace next week. “…justiﬁed by faith, we have peace with God….”

Hoping the Liberals will tweak a few things

By Calvin Daniels It was at least somewhat of a surprise when the smoke had cleared and the Liberals had managed to win a majority. It had been clear for most of the campaign that there was a mood to see Stephen Harper’s reign as Prime Minister come to an end. But, in what remains basically a threeparty system there was some expectation of enough splitting of the anti-Harper vote that the Conservatives might hold on to some relevance for the next four years. However, New Democrat support eroded, and Justin Trudeau’s message of a more hopeful, less fearful Canada caught hold and

as they say the rest is history. In many ways this election took Canada back to its norms. In the 2011 election the Liberals were at a near all-time low with the lame-duck leader Michael Ignatieﬀ at the helm. The NDP were riding an historic high with Jack Layton as the leader, the support he garnered slipping back to more long-term numbers under Tom Mulcair. Meanwhile the Conservative core stayed true, but Harper could not build on that. Of course on the Prairies, at least in Saskatchewan and Manitoba Conservatives carried the day.

15105MF3

With the region predominantly populating the Opposition benches it will be interesting what that will mean in terms of agriculture policy from the Liberals. We are aware farm issues are not a priority in terms of the lack of rural influence at the polls these days. And now with most seats on the Opposition side we may not see Prairie agriculture being a huge Liberal priority, which is why most people aren’t expecting anything dramatic from Trudeau and whoever he appoints his Minister of Agriculture. With Harper and the Conservatives out we will also begin the process of assessing their overall record in all areas, including agriculture. In terms of ag the debate on the Conservative impact will start with the elimination of the Canadian Wheat Board, a process which started with questionable tactics, Parliamentary questions, and ended with the ‘scorch-earthapproach to the sell off of farmer and taxpayerowned assets to ensure no government could turn back the clock. Whether history is favourable of the change, or not, the way the Conservatives went about changing the CWB should forever be questioned. The gutting of the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA), system, the head-inthe-sand approach to climate change, and weakening protection for most rivers will also be efforts history are not likely to look back on with favour. So maybe we should hope the Liberals do tweak a few things given the Conservative record in agriculture.

October 31st will be a busy time in many neighbourhoods and communities as excited youngsters will be out knocking on doors collecting Halloween treats and visiting with family and friends. CAA Saskatchewan would like to remind all trick-or-treaters to stay alert and be safe this Halloween. Motorists are encouraged to slow down when driving on Halloween night and watch for excited costumed trick-or-treaters who will be crossing streets and roads. Here are few more safety reminders for motorists: • Slow down to at least 10 km below the speed limit in residential areas and school zones. • Adult partygoers, please avoid taking short-cuts through residential areas typically populated by trickor-treaters. Also, please don’t drink and drive; arrange to have a safe ride home. Costumes are always exciting and fun to wear, but it’s recommended that parents help choose costumes that are bright at night and don’t obstruct children’s vision and hearing. Consider adding reﬂective markings on the costumes and also check the length of costumes to avoid tripping.

To help children learn about Halloween safety, Ashlyn George, the 2015 Saskatchewanderer, has produced a short CAA Saskatchewan Halloween Safety Video. Here are some additional Halloween safety tips for parents, caregivers, and teachers that can be shared with youngsters: • Look both ways before crossing the street and listen for traffic before crossing. • Cross the street only at corners; never between parked cars or in the middle of the block. • If there aren’t any sidewalks, always walk facing traffic and as far off the road as possible. • Think about your boundaries and make sure your parents or caregivers know where you will be. • Trick-or-treat in groups. • Have an adult or older teen accompany younger children. • Carry a flashlight. • Plan a route through familiar neighbourhoods with well-lit streets. • Never enter a stranger’s house even if you’re invited. CAA Saskatchewan Halloween Safety bookmarks are available at all 12 CAA Saskatchewan Stores and also online at www.caask.ca/safety.
