Carlyle schools turn pink

Staff photo by Kelly Running

Youth at Carlyle Elementary School had fun doing team building activities and focusing on “Respect – Responsibility – Belonging.” Observer Staff

“Respect – Responsibility – Belonging” was this year’s Pink Day theme in Carlyle where schools focused on understanding and working together. G.F. Kells Pink Day At Gordon F. Kells, students kicked the day oﬀ with a pancake breakfast. Inviting mothers to the morning as well, carnations were handed out, as the breakfast was both a tribute to Mother’s Day and a way to kick oﬀ Pink Day. The breakfast was sponsored and cooked by employees of the RBC

bank. The morning involved youth in grades 10 to 12, while the afternoon activity included students in grade seven to nine. The presentation was the same for both groups and was done by Shelley Slykhuis who was assisted by others familiar with the True Colours personality test. “This is a passion of mine and I’ve been doing it for 15 years,” Slykhuis explained. “Each of us is unique and we all have people we seem to struggle with and others that we just connect with. David and I have six kids, so for us, eight in the household, colours made a diﬀerence.”

Students looked at four different cards each one representing a different colour or personality. They then chose which one was most like them to least like them. This continued with deciding which group of three words best described them and least described who they are as people. Following this, students discovered if they identified as Blue, Gold, Green, or Orange. Blue is associated with heart and feelings, Gold are task oriented, Green are predominantly thinkers and are often in their own heads, and Orange are the risk takers.

Beer Can Chicken Ingredients ⅓ cup brown sugar 2 tablespoons chili powder 2 tablespoons paprika 2 teaspoons dry mustard ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper ½ (12 fluid ounce) can of beer 1 (3 lb.) chicken All add ingredients to list Directions 1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Mix the brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, dry mustard, salt, and ground black pepper in a small bowl. Place the half-full can of beer in the center of a plate.

2. Rinse chicken under cold running water. Discard giblets and neck from chicken; drain and pat dry. Fit whole chicken over the can of beer with the legs on the bottom; keep upright. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the seasoning mix into the top cavity of the chicken. The beer may foam up when the seasonings fall inside the can. Rub the remaining seasoning mix over the entire surface of the chicken. 3. Place the chicken, standing on the can, directly on the preheated grill. Close the lid and barbeque the chicken until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should

read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the grill and discard the beer can. Cover the chicken with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

Cook’s Notes The other half of the can of beer is for the cook to enjoy while preparing dinner. For extra stability, an inexpensive beer can stand can be purchased at most kitchen stores.

Stoughton drama club a hit with performance of “Wanted: One Groom” Kelly Running Observer Staff

(asst. director – back row), Rayah W. (Phyllis), and Tracy Cameron (director). After an incident of mistaken intentions, a happy ending results for Richard (Tiarra O.) and Kayla Shand (Justine G.), although Phyllis (Rayah W.) can’t believe an advertisement asking “Wanted: One Groom” could turn out in two people finding each other, although Mr. and Mrs. Shand (Jessica B. and Nikita N.) knew it would all work out… after all it was how they found each other over 20 years ago.

Kayla Shand (Justine G.) and Richard (Tiarra O.) bond over a love of antiques.

Richard (Tiarra O.) reads the ad that the Shand family believes he is answering and incredulously asks Phyllis (Rayah W.) why someone would put that in there.

EARLY DEADLINE For The Observer May 27th issue THURSDAY, MAY 19th at 3 p.m. This is due to the Victoria Day long weekend

It was an evening of side-splitting laughter with the Stoughton Drama Club performing “Wanted: One Groom” by Claudene Rease. Following an unusual advertisement in the paper a series of misunderstandings and mistaken intentions ensue, which resulted in laughter ringing through the Apostolic Church as the students performed. Teacher/director Tracy Cameron, was extremely pleased with the two shows held in Stoughton on May 4 and 5, while also extremely proud of the group which had attended the Middle Years Drama Festival at the University of Regina on Tuesday, May 3. “We were competing there and the performance was adjudicated, there’s no first or second awards in the Middle Years Competition, but the students were adjudicated and received feedback on their performance,” Cameron said. “They also had the opportunity to attend workshops while there. A big thank you to the Stoughton Central School for making that experience possible.” The performance opens on Kayla Shand (played by Justine Giroux) sitting with her mother, Mrs. Shand (Nikita Nahbexie), when there is a knock at the door. Kayla has invited her very best friend Phyllis (Rayah Will) over, not for a leisurely visit, but to be her Maid of Honour in a wedding to be held that night. As it turns out the Shands had placed an advertisement, “Wanted: One Groom,” and had included all the attributes the young man should have, including a love of antiques. The ad reads that the gentleman caller respond no later than that day. Phyllis is in disbelief, first wondering who in their right mind could possibly place such an ad and second what kind of person would answer such an ad. As it turns out, 20 years ago this is how Mrs. Shand and Mr. Shand (Jessica Baumgartner) met and married. A case of mistaken identity and intentions follow as there is another knock at the door. A young man, Richard (Tiarra Ogrodnick), arrives to inquire about an advertisement at the Shand’s residence. The only problem? Richard is inquiring about an advertisement placed in the paper the week before regarding an antique doll for sale. Richard is flabbergasted by the development, but as the family learns more about Richard and Richard learns about Kayla, he decides he did arrive at the house to answer the ad of “Wanted: One Groom.” Phyllis can’t believe it, but as she sits down shaking her head the family leaves the room and Phyllis picks up the phone to place her own advertisement. The assistant director Austin Cameron, prompter Chris Mould, and stage hand Kyra Coderre all added to the wonderful production. “A special thank you to Amanda Baumgarner, dessert organizers, all the supportive parents, and the Apostolic Church for sharing their beautiful church with us,” Cameron exclaimed following the production.

Enhancing Every Day: Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge bring engagement & excitement to residents Lynne Bell

Observer Staff

Since their start in November 2014, the volunteers from the Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge have made it their mission to “enhance the everyday lives” of Lodge residents and by doing so, also lend support to the staff who care for those residents. “We have a wonderful facility here,” says FMML president and Lodge staffer Bertha Isleifson. “We have 40 full-time residents and two respite beds that are always full. But there is always room for improvement and there are always things that can improve our residents’ quality of life and we’re happy to provide things that are fun for them.” “I’ve said from the start that we’re not here to complain or pick apart what’s already put in place by the health region,” adds Isleifson. “We only want to add some excitement and engagement to the daily lives of the residents.” “I think our residents can get so cut off from life in town and what’s going on. It doesn’t take a lot to make a huge impact in their daily lives.” “We’ve been able to make real progress in that area in just under two years,” says Isleifson. “And the Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge have so many people and groups that have stepped in and supported our mission. We really can’t thank them enough.” “And we’re especially touched by donations we’ve received in memory of former residents that help us make things better for future residents.” “Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge-our volunteers and our supporters-have brought in special entertainment, held social events, purchased new equipment for the Lodge, carried out beautification projects and have implemented ongoing projects. Even simple, regular things like providing ‘Welcome to Your New Home Bouquets’ to new residents and twice a month, providing fresh fruit to our residents-Fresh Fruit Fridays-make a big difference for them.” “With ‘Fresh Fruit Fridays,’ Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge purchase fresh fruit and the Legion shares the cost with us. Volunteers come in and wash and prepare the fruit for our residents. It was one of the first things we did as a group and it’s one of those small, simple things that makes a big difference to them.” “The Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge have also stepped in to help sponsor monthly birthday parties-if needed-but fortunately, many individuals, families and organizations usually do a great job of making those happen,” adds Isleifson. “And this summer, the camp kids from CFY (Corner-

they had a big hairdryer with a big arm mounted on the wall. For our ladies who are in big whhelchairs, that’s such a nice thing for them and it makes the experience of geting their hair done so much easier on them.” Other purchases and projects include: new audio visual equipment and some new furniture, improvements to the flag area at the front of the facility (with the History Book Committee) and ongoing beautification of the Lodge’s outdoor courtyard-a project started in 2015 with the repair and painting of the gazebo and the addition of picnic tables, courtesy of the Carlyle & District Lions Club. To celebrate their first year, the Friends hosted a pub night at the Lodge last November, with musical entertainment by Michele Amy and her troupe of fiddlers. The volunteer group managed to bring Elvis to the building, too, when they brought tribute artist Rory Allen to Moose Mountain Lodge for a surprise concert. FMML member Carolyn Shirley is credited with the idea of Allen appearing at the Lodge, but says: “I’m just part of the group. But I was brainstorming one night, trying to think of something that everyone might enjoy. I met with Rory a while back and I knew he did shows at nursing homes. I just tried to think of what I would like to see if I were in (the residents’) place.” “I saw so many smiling, toe-tapping people that day,” says Isleifson. “It was a really good show and it was fun for everyone.” Isleifson says: “Beyond special treats and big events, we like to do things like arrange visits from younger members of our communities and even have people bring in their pets. We’re trying to give our residents the chance to do some of the things they used to do. Along with visits that involve kids and animals, we’d like to take an individual approach to things for our residents.” “Someone might be a flower person, someone else might like music and some of the men might like tinkering and working on something,” she says. “It can be as simple as a resident getting the chance to help arrange flowers or listen to some music or even just seeing some books with pictures of trucks or farm equipment if that’s their area of interest.” “It’s about making them feel valued, but it’s also about alleviating the boredom,” adds Isleifson. “Especially, with people with dementia, it’s important to respect them and let them have their feelings. They may act out, but because of their illness, we may not understand where that’s coming from. But one thing we can do is try and prevent them from getting bored.” “In all of us, boredom has the potential to lead us to two types of action: constructive and destructive.We all look for some kind of excitement when we’re bored and by adding things that are enjoyable and interesting for our residents-whether they are someone with dementia or not-we’ll improve their quality of life.” “These people have helped to build our communities and make them what they are today,” says Isleifson. “They’re valuable members of our community and they should have the opportunity to participate in and enjoy the life of the community.” “Our ultimate goal is to make the last part of their journey as comfortable and as good as it can be. That’s what Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge is trying to do for our residents.” The Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge welcomes assistance, ideas, and monetary contributions to help them continue their work. Taxdeductible donations can be made by making your cheque payable to: The Town of Carlyle (P.O. Box 10, Carlyle, Sask. S0C 0R0) with “Friends of MML” in the memo line.

New food trailer the talk of the summer Kelly Running Observer Staff

Michael’s Coffee Shop and Bakery main mission is to bring people together. Michael Ellis’ favourite part of his business is seeing people come into the shop to visit or with the beautiful weather to sit at the tables outside. This experience has been recreated at various events, from weddings to the Red Market Barn, where the travelling barista attends, but he’s very excited to have upgraded this experience as well. “Our goal is to build community and the lives of people,” Ellis explained. “We facilitate relationships here [at the café] and we’re excited about the trailer because it will help make your event even better because people will enjoy an ice cap as they take in your event.” For the past few years Michael’s has hit the road with a tent and an espresso bar, but something bigger has come together recently for the coffee shop with the new food trailer. “The idea has been developing for a few years, but it’s come together quickly this spring,” Ellis said. “We’ve been at the Red Barn and Kenosee Lake Kitchen Party with our espresso bar under a tent offering portable coffee, but this takes it to a different level. It now has its own house and generator built in, so it’s an expansion on what we were already doing. We can just drive up and be ready to serve our customers.” The plan this year is to take the new food truck to fairs, festivals, and a variety of events in the area, while potentially setting up at Kenosee Lake on days when there are no special events. Discussions are underway to locate a default space for the food truck to set up. Otherwise the unit can be found at the Gateway Music Festival in Bengough, the Bow Valley Jamoree in Oxbow, All Folk’d Up in Montmartre, and every Sunday at the Red Market Barn. “Harold and Brenda [Johnston] at the Red

Helping raise funds for Fort McMurray

Observer Staff

The Carlyle RCMP detachment responded to several calls from Friday, April 29 until Thursday, May 5. Fraud Carlyle RCMP are currently receiving “more calls than we can count right now, regarding variuos fraudulent schemes,” says Staﬀ Sgt. Darren Simons. “These frauds are usually very aggressive phone calls for the most part, as well as some via the Internet. They are professionals and if you have been defrauded or if you have any questions, please contact us.” “However if you are simply reporting a call of this nature, please contact the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre by calling their toll-free number at 1-888-4958501 or by emailing them at info@antifraudcentre.ca. Their website is: www.antifraudcentre.ca .” “If you get a call and you’re concerned, check with your bank or the Canada Revenue Agency or wherever the caller says they’re from. Just don’t call any number they give you. Look up the number of whatever agency you’re concerned about and use that phone number to call them.” Vandalism A rig owned by Vortex Drilling was van-

The ﬁre in Fort McMurray has been devastating; it has displaced many people and has taken absolutely everything from them. Their memories are all that are left of what used to be. Now the ﬁre must be contained and the people taken care of until the city can be rebuilt. Canadians across the country have shown generosity and support. Glacier Media has decided to show support through their crowdfunding platform, FundAid.ca. For anyone thinking of contributing, but hasn’t yet, this provides an easy step in doing so. All funds will then be given to the Canadian Red Cross which is co-ordinating disaster relief for those who have been displaced. The campaign can be found by visiting www.fundaid.ca/ fortmac or by going to www.carlyleobserver. com and scrolling down a little ways to a link

on the right side of the page with the title “Help Fort McMurray.” “All of Canada is shocked and saddened by the devastating wildﬁre which has caused the evacuation of Fort McMurray, Alberta,” Tim Shoults, Vice President, Content and Audience Development with the Glacier Media Group, said. “Canadians everywhere have shown amazing generosity to support the victims of this disaster, giving cash, food items, clothing and support in a variety of ways.” “While there are many ways to donate, we wanted to oﬀer one more for those who haven’t had the opportunity to contribute yet. All the proceeds from this FundAid campaign will be going to the Canadian Red Cross, which is co-ordinating disaster relief to the victims.” “Better still, all donations to the Red Cross are being matched by both the federal government as well as Alberta’s provincial government, meaning every dollar

you donate becomes $3 for the victims.”

RCMP received complaints of a dog constantly barking within the Town of Carlyle. Theft Police are investigating a possible gas theft from a service station in Carlyle. Traffic “We’ve received a lot of calls from members of the public to do with driving complaints,” says Staff Sgt.

Gun incidents in the U.S. are shocking

The other day as I was reading through various news sources I came across a story, “Two-year-old child fatally shoots mother in US,” on the Associated Press website. The opening line of the article was literally unbelievable to me, “A two-year-old boy has fatally shot his mother from the Kelly Running backseat of the car as she drove Observer Staff along a motorway…” My first thoughts were of how tragic it is, but my next thoughts were questions. Who carries a loaded gun in the backseat? Wouldn’t you at least have the safety on? Why is the two-year-old not contained in a car seat? Why would you put your kid unrestrained in the backseat with a loaded weapon? To a kid, a gun is a toy unless they’re taught the proper handling and the seriousness of it. Otherwise they see plastic toy ones sitting up in a toy store and think nothing of it. A two-year-old simply wouldn’t know any better. Apparently the gun had slid out from underneath the driver’s seat, so whether the mother knew it was there or not, the boy saw it and picked it up then fired it. The bullet passed through the front seat striking the mother. This story comes after a four-year-old that shot their mother when a handgun slid out from beneath the front seat. This individual survived, but it seems incredulous to me that essentially two of the exact same shootings occurred within a month of each other. So far, the Gun Violence Archive, has listed for 2016: 17,974 total incidents, 4,568 deaths, 9,276 injuries, 194 children aged 0-11 killed/injured, and 988 teens aged 12-17 killed/injured. A couple of interesting numbers in my opinion are that defensive use of a gun is sitting at 552 instances, while accidental shootings are up to 849. For every time there was a defensive use of a gun there was 1.54 instances of accidental shootings. In 2015 there were a total of 53,229 incidents which resulted in 13,416 deaths and 27,000 injuries, 696 incidents of children aged 0-11, and 2,690 incidents involving teens. Defensive use totalled 1,291 for the year, while again accidental shootings were more at 1,961. Now, the United States gun laws are far too lax for me. Nearly anyone can obtain a handgun or even an automatic machine gun because apparently their right to “bear arms” is extremely important to them. I like that in Canada you have to jump through a few hoops in order to obtain a gun, although I’m sure there are illegal sales in Canada, at least we have something in place to attempt to prevent people from owning a deadly weapon unless they’ve gone through the proper procedures and have been screened. The problem with the States is that they are flooded with guns and there is literally no real solution. Obama has talked about gun laws and tightening them up, but there’s no possible action plan to really accomplish this. There are too many guns out there per capita that even if a fraction of people chose to abide by any new laws that are created it likely wouldn’t make a difference. The best bet would be to educate the entire population on gun safety and hope for the best.

The lists just don’t cover it When a big concert announcement is made we are likely to hear someone say they absolutely have to get tickets because seeing that singer/artist/group is on their bucket list. When a milestone birthday is approaching people seek gift options that will help a friend put a checkmark beside an item on said list. Often it’s of an adventurous variety—skydivShelley Luedtke ing, parasailing--or a trip to an exotic locale. Although there are differing opinions regarding the origin of the term bucket list, there’s no denying the 2007 movie popularized its use. The story, featuring two cancer patients who head out on a road trip with a wish list of things to do before they die, inspired many to set goals and embark on completing tasks they have dreamed of doing. I am a list maker; mostly out of a need to ensure things get done, but a list maker nonetheless. The idea of a bucket list should appeal to me. But it doesn’t. I don’t begrudge those who have one. Perhaps it helps them keep track of what still needs to be attempted and is a sure reminder of the timelines that need to be kept in mind—yet not really. To attempt to write down all the things I think I want to try would indicate I somehow knew of all the options and opportunities I may want to pursue. But I don’t. I don’t know about a lot of them yet. I certainly have thought of the places I’d like to visit and activities I’d like to try. I would love to sleep under a canopy of stars in Tuscany. I would be thrilled to attend an Olympic event. And, in the interest of full disclosure, finding out a favourite singer was going to be performing in St. Louis, Missouri solidified last summer’s vacation plans. Well, technically my husband found the most ridiculous roller coasters first and then sold me on the idea

after informing me of the concert opportunity. But to be honest, some of the most special moments of that trip, or any other for that matter, were the ones that were unplanned. A lot of the most incredible moments in my life were those that weren’t orchestrated, or choreographed, or put on a must-do list. Like foregoing a sightseeing itinerary and sitting at the water’s edge one afternoon. Relaxing with an ice cream cone in the shade of a tree rather than pushing on to the next activity. I didn’t know how much we needed that until we were there... immersed in it…surprised by the simplicity of the moment. Or a prayer garden we stumbled across on a travel day. So we decided to stop…to sit…to be still. Although I could be packed in 10 minutes if I was told I was heading to Italy, I doubt sleeping under the stars there would be any more incredible than the memories I have sitting under blankets around the campﬁre with a toddler in my arms gazing at the night sky listening to their daddy tell them the “Man in the Moon” story. Yes, my heart would pound through my chest if I was seated in a stadium prior to the start of an Olympic event, yet I doubt it would mean as much as the pulse racing days I’ve experienced watching my girls and their friends compete with absolute joy in sports they love. And the concert in St. Louis? Spectacular. But it was the other singer sharing the stage that night that led a worship song—just him and his guitar— that caused the tears to come. A moment I didn’t anticipate. An artist I wasn’t there to see. So…yes…there are still many things I want to do, adventures I desire to have and places I long to see, but they aren’t on a list; literal or ﬁgurative. They are part of an approach to life that acknowledges the best plans aren’t made by man, and the most breathtaking moments aren’t found on a checklist. Because some of the best things I’ve ever done…were things I didn’t even realize I wanted to do. That’s my outlook.

Seeing things differently . . .

What if… “We don’t negotiate with terrorists.” It’s a saying you hear, whether in reality or on the silver screen, but is it a quote to live by or is it one a country should ignore? Recently in the news a Philippine militant group murdered a Canadian hostage. In a video released before his death, the Kelly Running Canadian hostage pleaded with Observer Staff the Government of Canada to meet the demands of the militant group holding him. After refusing to pay, however, a second video was released which apparently shows the beheading of the Canadian hostage. His family now mourns his death and there is talk that the Canadian Government could have stopped it had the country simply paid. According to a National Post article, however, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has vowed that Canada will never pay ransom when faced with the decision. Britain and the United States both state that they too will never pay ransom for its citizens. There are countries out there that will pay: France denies that they paid a ransom but four journalists were released in Syria in 2014 after demands were made. Spain reportedly paid for the release of 36 crewman from a Spanish trawler to Somali pirates. Austria, Switzerland, Qatar, Oman, and Israel have also reportedly given in to ransom demands. In such a difﬁcult situation, what is the right decision? I’m not sure if there actually is one. On one hand the countries that refuse to negotiate with terrorists, their citizens are left in the hands of their captors to potentially meet their end. On the other hand, countries that pay ransom are taking a risk, what if the terrorists don’t follow through on the deal, however, they are more likely to bring home a citizen alive. Yet, if a country negotiates a ransom they are willing to pay, does that put those citizens at more of a risk than citizens from other countries. If places like Canada, the United States, and Britain refuse to pay a ransom are those citizens less likely to be taken than people from countries that do negotiate and pay? It’s one of those Catch-22 situations where you are darned if you do and darned if you don’t. There is no right answer and no wrong answer when we’re looking at what if’s. You can look back on anything in the world, in your life and question, what if this was done or what if that was done? There’s no guarantee for you to know the outcome if those different choices had been made. What if Hitler had been accepted into art school? Would the world be vastly different than what it is today? The point is we can’t know for certain what would or wouldn’t happen in the world, so our government must make policies that it thinks will best protect its citizens. This idea of refusing to negotiate a ransom isn’t intrinsic to the current liberal government either, I don’t want people to go off blaming Trudeau like they do for everything else. If you want to blame people, blame those who voted for him, because he’s there representing the majority. Whether negotiations take place or not, it is the choice of the government and their efforts in ensuring Canadian citizens are safe.

Editor’s Note . . . The views expressed in “Seeing things differently” are for discussion purposes and are not necessarily the views of the writers.

A Deal with the Devil: The price of paying ransom As I write this, two horrific videos have surfaced after the murder of Canadian citizen John Ridsdel in the Philippines. I haven’t watched themand I won’t-but according to transcripts released by a Norwegian group that monitors jihadist activity, the first video contains footage of the innoLynne Bell cent hostage’s barbaric murder Observer Staff and states: “John Ridsdel was beheaded on 4/25, due to noncompliance of Canadian Gov.” The second video reportedly contains footage of Ridsdel’s three fellow hostages-Canadian Robert Hall, Filipina Marites Flor and Norwegian Kjartan Sekkingstad. Each of them-surrounded by armed, masked men-address the camera. Hall states “To the Canadian government, I’m told to tell you to meet the demand. I don’t know what you’re doing, but you’re not doing anything for us. John has been sacrificed, his family has been decimated, and I’m not sure why or what you’ve been waiting for.” Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wholeheartedly condemned those who murdered Ridsdel but maintained that Canada simply will not pay ransom to kidnappers and will not be held hostage by the criminal likes of Abu Sayyaf, the Philippine terrorist group who murdered Ridsdel, an innocent Canadian citizen. One of the reasons for Canada’s longstanding policy regarding the refusal to pay ransom payments is that doing so would endanger all Canadians who travel abroad. Italy and France are two countries who have reportedly paid millions in ransom payments to captors of their citizens. As a result, not only are the Italians and French seen as especially desirable targets by terrorists, but the cash these criminals receive aids their cause greatly-creating exactly the opposite effect of what most civilized countries hope to achieve. But of course, real life is more complicated. As I sit here in my office, none of my loved ones are in such an unspeakably awful situation, and most of us would move heaven and earth-governments be damned-to save any member of our families or any of our friends from a fate like John Risdsel’s. Alberta’s Amanda Lindhout and her mother Lorinda Stewart know how hellish kidnapping is-

both from the side of the captive and from the side of the hostage’s frantic loved ones back home. Lindhout was kidnapped in Somalia in August 2008 and was held for 15 months by a group of Somali men, where she endured torture and the fear of an agonizing death for nearly every day of her captivity. She was finally freed when her family pulled together a ransom and she was released-without the official assistance of the Canadian government. Perhaps surprisingly, both Lindhout and her mother stand behind this country’s policy of refusing to pay to kidnappers for the release of their hostages. Lindhout recently told CBC News: “It’s so complicated, and people come to me expecting in a way that I would have a really clear answer about that,” she said. “The answer is probably not what most people expect, given what I’ve been through, but I understand Trudeau’s position. I actually understand and agree with how a policy like that serves to protect Canadians who are out travelling around the world.” At one point during Lindhout’s captivity, her mother endured the nightmare of a phone call from her hysterical daughter after she had been bound and gagged, tortured and assaulted for three consecutive days. Lindhout’s kidnappers told her she would be tortured every day until they received payment-and this was the telephone message they had their sobbing victim relay to her mother who was thousands of miles away in Canada. Stewart says she agrees with Canada’s policy of non-payment of ransoms, but adds that she would change the law, so that families trying to gain their loved one’s freedom under such difficult circumstances would be able to do so without facing government roadblocks-or even criminal charges- in Canada. After “selling everything” and paying what was rumoured to be $500,000 to gain her daughter’s freedom, Stewart told CBC News: “I’m really hesitant to say that I lost everything because I feel like I gained everything when Amanda came home.” I suspect we all would feel the same way-but if the Canadian government officially adopts the policy of making ransom payments for the release of its innocent citizens held captive by terror groups, it almost normalizes and legitimizes these crimes. And that really would be like making a deal with the devil.

Rebels take silver at provincial volleyball championships Submitted by Red Coat Rebels Volleyball Club After a long season of hard work, sweat, injuries, three-day a week practices plus nine tournaments, the 16U Red Coat Rebels finished their season with an impressive silver medal at the Saskatchewan Provincial Volleyball Championships in Saskatoon over the April 29 – May 1 weekend. The team went undefeated all weekend, only losing the gold medal match to be awarded silver (Division

2 Tier 1). The Rebels played in nine tournaments this season, and medalled in all but one, which is quite an accomplishment. I would like to thank Joan Adams and Jackie Verity for their support throughout the season. Coaching two teams (16U; 18U) was a challenge to say the least and many thanks to Jackie for taking the 18U’s when both teams were playing. I am very proud of all the athletes and so appreciative for the support and dedication of the parents as well.

Carlyle Fire & Rescue’s recent practice focused on fighting grass fires. Here, members ready a portable drafting pool, so it can be filled up with water from the department’s tanker truck. “The pool is an extra source of water when we’re fighting fires in rural areas,” says Deputy Chief John Brownlee. “We empty the water from the tanker into the pool and then head back to town for more water if we need it. The pool holds just over 7,000 litres of water and depending on the pressure and the size of the nozzle we use, we can use up to 1,000 liters of water per minute.”

Firefighter Brent Stillwell of Carlyle Fire & Rescue demonstrates the simple and exhausting technique of literally beating a fire down. The volunteer fire department also uses sprayer backpacks that are designed to use on smaller fires and hotspots. The crew from Carlyle Fire & Rescue often rely on some old-school tools, which have been in the firehouse for over 15 years, and are constructed from hockey sticks and old rubber car mats. These are often used to beat smaller fires and hotspots until they are extinguished.

This truck is just one of the specialized pieces of equipment that the members of Carlyle Fire & Rescue utilize. “We’re lucky in a small town to have the equipment we do,” says Deputy Fire Chief John Brownlee. “It’s all there to help the community.”

“It’s grass fire season,” says Deputy Fire Chief John Brownlee. “And that’s why we’re simulating a fire in a rural area here tonight. We urge members of the public not only to be aware, but also to report any controlled burns they have planned by calling 1-866-404-4911. They’ll be asked their name, their phone number, their land location and a few other simple questions. But it’s really important that they make that call.”

Deputy Fire Chief Michelle Orsted and her son, 16-year-old Austin Dovell, make firefighting a family affair. Although the age requirement to become a volunteer firefighter is 18, Austin is considered a junior firefighter and attends practices, even though he doesn’t yet go out on calls. Carlyle Fire & Rescue welcomes new members, and further information about joining up is available at www.townofcarlyle.com

Deputy Fire Chief Travis Van Meer gives some last-minute instructions to volunteer firefighters from Carlyle Fire & Rescue during their recent grass fire drill. The crew regularly practices fire and rescue routines with specialized equipment which the team uses to perform cold water rescues, to attend at the scene of motor vehicle accidents, and to fight grass, structure, and other types of fires.

Lampman work bee sees results

Moose Mountain Mustangs 4H

Lampman held a work bee on its ball diamonds on Saturday, April 23, between 9 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. with six volunteers working to bring down the back stop and dugouts on Diamond 3. The rebuild of the back stop and dugouts then commenced on Monday, April 25. The project received funding through a grant from the Community Initiatives Fund, which was then matched by collectively by the Town of Lampman and the R.M. of Browning.

Honouring community: Stoughton Chamber of Commerce Recognition Night Kelly Running Observer Staff

It was a community come together in Stoughton on Friday, May 6, as they celebrated the businesses and volunteers who contribute to the vibrancy of the town. Throughout the month of April the community was given the opportunity to place their votes for Volunteer of the Year and for Business of the Year, which culminated in the Stoughton Chamber of Commerce Recognition Night. Beginning at 6:30 p.m., held at the Stoughton Legion, residents enjoyed cocktails, appetizers, and entertainment before the announcements at 7:30 p.m. Entertainment for the evening was local band, Wool Tree Grove, which is the very talented Aaron and Jacquie Walbaum. They were joined by their eldest daughter Mycah, who had won first place in the 18U category at the fiddle competition in Weyburn the weekend before. Comments throughout the evening were very complimentary of the couple and their eldest daughter’s abilities. The award presentations then began with Hazel Schindel presenting the Business of the Year award sponsored by the Town of Stoughton. Three very deserving businesses were nominated including Farrell Agencies, Newhope Pharmacy, and Herr Kutz. Farrell Agencies first came to Stoughton in December of 2013, are privately owned and operated, and maintain a staff of three in Stoughton. Newhope Pharmacy was purchased by current owners, Chelsea and Hazel Schindel, in 2007 and they have thrived in the community ever since, offering a variety in their store from the necessities to gift items. The final nominee was Herr Kutz Salon, which is owned and operated by Taure Brigden. Herr Kutz first came to the community in 1975 under the name Carol’s Beauty Salon, which passed down through the family leaving Brigden the third generation to own the business.

The community spoke and Herr Kutz Salon was this year’s winner. Brigden, not one for public speaking, thanked the community for the honour in a short, but sweet acceptance speech. Town of Stoughton Councillor, Tom Sangster, then spoke about the Volunteer of the Year nominees before announcing this year’s winner. Nominated were Dorothy Knoch, Betty Lou McIntosh, Anne Kernaleguen, Karla Gervais, Pat Slater, Danielle Hoffman, Ray Coderre, and the Dinner Theatre Group. Whether born and raised in Stoughton or moved to the community, volunteerism and the want of community members to better their town for their friends, family, and neighbours is what Stoughton is built on. Each of those who volunteer offer a variety of time and services to ensure each aspect of the community is taken care of. In the end the Dinner Theatre Group, made up of Aaron Walbaum, Danielle Hoffman, Trevor Elliot, Lauren Creighton, and Holly Fraser, were chosen as this year’s Volunteer of the Year for their fundraising efforts, which brought in $26,000 to the community.

Future Fire Coverage:

Carlyle Fire Board members and White Bear officials to meet Lynne Bell

Observer Staff

Carlyle Town Council met Wed., May 4 for its regular bi-weekly meeting. Fire Members of the Carlyle Fire Board will meet with representatives from White Bear First Nations on May 10 to discuss ongoing fire coverage. Hazardous waste Council reminds Carlyle homeowners not to place used propane tanks or other hazardous waste materials in residential trash cans. Recently, a member of Regens staff noticed a propane tank in a homeowner’s garbage can and fortunately, it was not compressed. A potential tragedy was averted but only by chance, according to one member of council. Materials like this pose a very real danger to people and equipment if improperly disposed of, along with the interruption of service. Quarterly RCMP Report Staff Sgt. Darren Simons of the Carlyle RCMP delivered the detachment’s quarterly report to members of council. Simons said members are involved in ongoing training, “which will make us an even more well-experienced, well-trained detachment, adding that the Carlyle RCMP will be at “full strength” staff-wise this summer. Simons says the RCMP’s focus is on crime reduction, whether as a preventative measure or as an

enforcement issue preventing repeat oﬀences, and said that members are-among other educational courses-being trained on increasingly sophisticated intoxication detection devices, whether they detect alcohol or drugs. “Drugs are just as dangerous as alcohol when someone is behind the wheel,” says Simons. “And if we can prevent a tragedy on the road, then we’ve done our job.” Lions Park Carlyle & District Lions Club President Wade Trippel and Lions Keith Walker and Wayne Wilson met with council regarding the drainage ditch and proposed walking path in Lions Park. Members of council said they are looking forward to working with the Lions to bring these projects to fruition. Council is currently drafting a bylaw which will state that the speed limit for all vehicles-including recreational vehicles- within Lions Park will be 10 km per hour. Handi-Transit Van The Town of Carlyle is pleased with the response to the HandiTransit Van for use by elderly residents of Carlyle and persons with special needs. Council decided not to raise the price of fares and will countinue to subsideize this service. Rides are $2 per round trip and can be booked by calling the Town Oﬃce at (306)-453-2363. Crescent Point Building Council accepted the gift of the lot on 7th Street West from Crescent Point Energy, once the building is

Kennedy/Langbank News Submitted by Doreen Cancade Sunday, May 8th mothers were blessed with many opportunities to celebrate the day with family and friends, there were a number of places to go out for a special meal and I am sure there were a number of ladies receiving gifts from special friends as well as family members. The saying goes “Kindness is loving people more than they deserve”. The Kennedy Friendship Centre is certainly looking great since the new flooring, counter tops and painting was completed in April, along with the help of local members moving the accessories of the building it took many hands to get it completed. The first get-together held in May was the spring bridge tournament with 11 tables taking part, bridge players from Estevan, Weyburn, Wolseley, Wawota, Kenosee Lake, Yellow Grass enjoyed the day with winners being Janice Wilson and Cathy Hoffart of Wawota and Kenosee). Second prize to Jim Brown and Lucel Nickel of Weyburn, third going to Theresa Istace and

ED UC

Jean Janoski of Weyburn, the 50/50 winners were Dorothy Hewson, Langbank; Terry Fafard, Broadview; Merrylin McCaskell of Wolseley. (It is always a big event for Kennedy and everyone seems to enjoy themselves). (If I missed some towns, sorry.) Sunday, May 8th nephews and nieces from Manitoba and Ontario joined the Saskatchewan nieces and nephews and local family friends to celebrate the life of Agnes Hourd (101 years). Agnes had been in the Carlyle care home for many years, there were many memories shared about Agnes. She loved her music, golﬁng, dancing, and cards are only some of the highlights that were shared. Valerie Daku of Saskatoon spent the weekend with her mother Iola Smyth. I am sure there were many other visitors in Kennedy or folks away for the weekend but that’s life in the hands of news reporters. Jerry and Halina Hourd had her father visit them this past week while his wife was visiting in Pland.

Great causes to rejoice By Linda Wegner For me, it’s not always the case that two completely unrelated events occupy the same spot and importance at the same time but that’s what happened this morning. We were gathered for our weekly church service when the tears began to ﬂow, provoked by two unrelated things. It was Mother’s Day and my thoughts were drawn to our two sons, their wives and our granddaughters. I realize I’m getting older but it’s a good enough reason, in my estimation at least, that I can’t recall anything negative about the experience of raising them. Looking back I think of so many things I wished I done better or diﬀerently but overriding even those musings is the sense of gratitude for the men, husbands and fathers they have become. I am truly blessed. Then there was the other event that moved me to a second wave of

tears. Triggered by the late arrival of two faithful members of the congregation, I and so many others saw an example of God’s grace and protection demonstrated in a terrible situation. He was an evacuee from the horrific fires ravaging the community of Fort McMurray and surrounding areas. Usually early rather than late, this brother in Christ took his place several rows ahead of us, now safe and back home. It was obvious that his wife had been crying and, indeed, she continued to fight tears through the entire service. Another member of the congregation was also out of danger and enjoying time with his son while on his way back home. As so many have observed recently: it’s about family, all the rest is just stuff. Our sons are well. Our friends and brothers in Christ are home. What else could I do but shed tears of joy! “Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.”
