CRIMESTOPPERS REPORT

Cst. Don Fraser, Martensville RCMP (306) 975-1610

Police investigate theft of purse, incidents of vandalism Sometime around 11:00 p.m. on July 9 at the Buster Days Dance in Martensville a grey Coach purse was stolen from a table. It contained credit cards and other items. Sometime between 10:30 p.m. on July 28 and 11:00 a.m. on July 29 a motorhome was struck by a vehicle which then left the scene. This occurred in the 400 block of 4th Avenue North in Martensville and may have involved a yellow or white vehicle. Between 1:00 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. on July 13 an unknown person or persons damaged and spray painted a red 4-door car parked on the 400 block of 1st Avenue North; as well, a bridge in Kinsmen park was spray painted with similar markings. On the evening of July 13th between the hours of 9:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m., a blue Pontiac Sunfire had the rear tires slashed in the far north parking lot of the arena located on Main Street in Martensville. On August 1 RCMP received a complaint of a vehicle that had been damaged while parked on the 100 block of 5th Avenue North. It is unknown exactly when the damage occurred, but is believed to have happened just prior to July 29. The rear driver s side tail light was damaged and appears to have been broken by someone directly hitting it with an

object as opposed to another vehicle. If you have any information relating to this incident please contact Martensville RCMP at 975-1610 or contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477

Alcohol believed a factor in crash Two men were taken to hospital in the early morning hours of Friday, August 5, after the vehicle they were travelling in struck a light pole just off Highway 11 south of Warman. Warman RCMP responded to the call at about 2:20 a.m. The mishap occurred on a curved section of Range Road 3052 (Wanuskewin Road) approximately one kilometer north of Highway 11 and involved a 2002 Saturn. The two men in the vehicle are 20 and 21 years of age, one from Martensville and one from Oxbow. Both were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The collision is still under investigation and alcohol is believed to be a factor. No charges have yet been laid and no names are being released at this time. Traffic on Range Road 3052 was blocked for approximately four hours while police completed their investigation at the scene.

RM OF CORMAN PARK

Consultant’s report into allegations was “deeply flawed”: OHS Investigation into harassment allegations did not follow accepted methods. By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

An investigation by a private consultant into harassment allegations against the Reeve of the RM of Corman Park was deeply flawed, and its findings are not valid, according to a representative of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) unit of Saskatchewan Labour and Workplace Safety. The investigation was conducted earlier this summer by Marilyn MacKenzie, a private consultant from Winnipeg, at a cost of more than $33,000. A confidential report by MacKenzie resulting from that investigation was released to the RM of Corman Park Council in late July, and was later leaked to a Saskatoon daily newspaper in early August. But a review by OHS of the MacKenzie investigation revealed at least 20 serious flaws in the way that inquiry was conducted, according to Larry Seiferling, a lawyer with McDougall Gauley, the legal firm for the RM of Corman Park. Seiferling quoted Andrea Dunkle, an official with the OHS and an expert on harassment investigations. His comments came after a threehour in-camera meeting of the RM of Corman Park council on Monday, August 8. During the in-camera meeting in which Seiferling was present, Dunkle reviewed the findings of the MacKenzie investigation and outlined what she determined to be serious flaws in the way it was conducted. Harassment complaints have been included under provincial Occupational Health and Safety legislation since 2007, when amendments were made as a result of the Murdoch Carriere case. Seiferling said Dunkle made a presentation to the

RM council outlining how investigations should be conducted to ensure fairness to all parties. One of the flaws Dunkle found in the MacKenzie investigation was that the complainants were interviewed as a group, and not indivdiually. The investigator made a finding against the complainants because they talked as a group, expained Seiferling. You don t do an investigation into harassment without talking indivdually to compainants. You have to explain to the complainants that you can t proceed with the investigation unless you talk to them individually. That was just one of the flaws. Seiferling said because the MacKenzie investigation was flawed, the report is not valid. The findings are deeply flawed because the procedure was not done properly, Seiferling said. You can t rely on that report. If you are any kind of an investigator dealing with harassment investigations, you need to follow the steps, and you need to have a process that gives everyone a fair chance. He said the verdict on the MacKenzie report does not alter the status of the original complaint. No one is saying there was a valid complaint against the reeve, he said, and no one is saying the complaints were not legitimate. You have to have a trained investigator conducting the investigation to determine the facts. Seiferling said the MacKenzie report should not be used as the basis for a new investigation. He noted the RM Council is trying to find ways of working together to overcome its current deep divisions. In terms of the council, I would say it was a positive meeting, because they said they have to find a solution, to find ways to get along and work together, he said. That s what they re trying to do.

Dalmeny watermain break results in boil water advisory By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Dalmeny residents are under a boil-water advisory as a result of a watermain break at the town s main pumphouse. The rupture occurred the morning of Monday, August 8, resulting in a complete depressurization and shutdown of waterlines throughout the municipalilty. While the break was repaired within a matter of hours and water pressure was restored to the system, the boil-water advisory will remain in effect at least until Friday morning, August 12, according to the Dalmeny town office. The boil-water advisory

notice regarding the safety of the town s drinking water supply was posted on the Dalmeny town website at 11:15 on August 8. Updates on the boil water advisory are available on the town website at www.dalmeny.ca . Residents are advised to boil water for drinking purposes for at least one minute at a rolling boil, prior to use. Lee Reinhart, environmental project officer with the provincial Environment Ministry, said the watermain break was in itself quite small, but the location of the break was significant. It was a small leak, but it occurred right near the pumphouse, which meant the entire system had to be

shut off in order to access the pipe, Reinhart explained. If it had occurred further away from the pumphouse, it could have probably been isolated to one or two blocks. The boil water advisory was implemented by the provincial Environment Ministry as a routine precaution becasue of the depressurization of the system. Before the advisory can be lifted, at least two sets of water samples must be tested by a laboratory to determine if the lines are free of bacteria such as e-coli. Shelley Funk, administrator for the Town of Dalmeny, said the first samples were taken late Monday afternoon, but they could not be sent to the Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC) lab

in Saskatoon until Tuesday morning. Additional samples were taken at three different locations in town on Tuesday morning and again on Wednesday morning. Samples require a 24 hour time period before the presence of bacteria can be conclusively determined. After two consecutive tests come back negative, the earliest the boil water advisory can be lifted is early Friday morning, August 12, said Funk. The provincial Environment Ministry is the only agency with the authority to lift the advisory, Funk said. The town cannot lift the advisory on its own. Continued on Page 8 Please see DALMENY

CITY OF MARTENSVILLE MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY

EXPENDITURES General government services To the Ratepayers of the City of Martensville: Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the accompanying summarized financial Protective services statements, including responsibility for significant accounting judgments and estimates in accordance with Canadi- Transportation services an generally accepted accounting principles and ensuring that all information in the annual report is consistent with Environmental and public health services the statements.

Recreation and cultural services In discharging its responsibilities for the integrity and fairness of the financial statements, management designs Utility services and maintains the necessary accounting systems and related internal controls to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are authorized, assets are safeguarded and financial records are properly maintained to provide reliable information for the preparation of financial statements. The Council is composed of elected officials who are not employees of the City. The Council is responsible for overseeing management in the performance of its financial reporting responsibilities. The Council fulfils these responsibilities by reviewing the financial information prepared by the administration and discussing relevant matters with external auditors. Jensen Stromberg Chartered Accountants, an independent firm of Chartered Accountants, is appointed by the councilors to audit the financial statements and report directly to them; their report follows. The external auditors have full and free access to, and meet periodically and separately with, both the Council and administration to discuss their audit findings.

These summarized financial statements do not contain all the disclosures required by Canadian public sector accounting standards. Reading the summarized financial statements, therefore, is not a substitute for reading the audited financial statement of City of Martensville. Management’s Responsibility for the Summarized Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these summarized financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of summarized financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

VIEWPOINT

Number of representatives on Corman Park council was result of a 1970 compromise Dear Editor, I am writing regarding the debate on the number of electoral divisions in the RM of Corman Park. I was Corman Park Adminis-

trator for 19 years, and previously served for several years as a Municipal Administration Advisor, Department of Municipal Affairs. I have been retired for 12 years.

Many reasons for ratepayers to vote against RM boundary changes Dear Editor, I am the councillor for Division 9 in the RM of Corman Park, an agricultural area of the RM and an area that will lose their voice ifthe boundaries are re-aligned to the 8 divisions as presented in the referendum. Mr. Derenoski, chair of the group of people in the RM who organized the petition, attended the Monday, July 25th council meeting and addressed council regarding the referendum. When I asked if they had received any signatures on their petition from Divisions 9, 10 or 11, Mr. Derenoski admitted that he did not even know where those divisions were and was not familiar with that part of the RM. Really? I then asked Mr. Derenoski if he was aware of how many different committees and meetings the councillors were a part of and were required to attend each month. He had no idea of that either. Then I do not understand how a group of people proposing to the ratepayers as to how the RM should be re-aligned AND REDUCED to only 8 divisions, feel they are capable of making this decision, when they have not taken the time to educate themselves as to the geographic location of the divisions and the many committees, meetings and hours that 11 council members are currently committed to. We are one of the largest RM s with over 800 miles of road - with Division 11 having the most road network of any division. We are the west and northwest area of the RM. We border the RM of Vanscoy, the RM of Perdue, the RM of Laird, the RM of Eagle Creek and directly across the river from us is the RM of Great Bend. We are a large agriculture sector covering a vast area of the RM and even though this area is more sparsely inhabited, we need more representation than 2 councillors. In the RM of Corman Park, hamlets and multi-parcel developments in the south and southeast area of the RM have caused the population in a few divisions to increase dramatically, causing a great imbalance in the population distribution. In an article in the July 26 issue of the Star-Phoenix, Ms. Harwood is quoted as saying How can a person representing 200 people have the same say as a councillor representing 2,000 people? Well for starters, only 60% of the taxes from ratepayers in hamlets actually stays in the pocket of the RM, the other 40% is returned to the hamlet to be used for road repair, infastructure, etc in the hamlet.

Gazette

So what about the RM roads these ratepayers travel on? Are the rest of us subsidizing the maintenance and building of these roads with the 100% of our taxes that stay with RM? So the one person, one vote idea doesn t really fit here. Also, hamlets with a population of 100 or more has had the legal right to have a seat/ position on the RM council, but they have never exercised that right. They would rather take away the representation from the larger agricultural, less populated part of the RM, in order to increase their representation. I accept the fact that a population redistribution is inevitable, but I do not believe the ratepayers in the north and northwest divisions should be hung out to dry by reducing the number of divisions to 8. Unfortunately, the petitioners have a two-part referendum with only one vote. You cannot vote for the population redistribution, without at the same time voting in favour of reducing the number of divisions. The redistribution to fewer divisions would mean that council majority would rest in the south and southeast area of the RM. This is a very diverse RM with many challenges and issues. For example, council receives letters from ratepayers in the hamlets and multi parcels, complaining of the smell of manure, the beeping of a tractor backing up, the noise of a combine late in to the night or early in the morning. In the rest of the RM, that is a part of life and part of living in the country. It is obvious that we need to vote against this referendum and maintain the 11 divisions. The number of divisions and boundaries should not only be based on numbers, but also on the diversity of this RM as well. Wendy Trask Councillor, Division 9 RM of Corman Park

Dear Editor, This letter is in response to a letter in the July 21 edition of the Gazette entitled RM Boundary issue is about democracy. The people calling for division boundary changes are looking for more representation with less taxation. They want to retain 50 percent or more of their municipal tax for their own use, and ask the RM of Corman Park for additional grants. At the same time, they complain endlessly about alleged wrongs they have suffered. The perfidious proposal - alias

opments near the city. Conversely, councillors in the proximity of the city were just as concerned about agriculture and road issues in the more remote areas, as they were for services in the area they happened to represent. It is perplexing to observe that many resolutions of council have a 7-5 split. This is an indication of a seriously divided council, and the taxpayers will eventually suffer. Divisions are created for election purposes only. After the election, councillors represent the whole municipality, although in reality they are more apt to be contacted by residents within their division. I performed a survey of rural municipalities in Alberta (counties and municipal districts). Almost all have a far larger population than Corman Park, and in terms of area, all have a much larger area. Corman Park has 12 elected members of council, population 8,351 and an area of 24 townships. Typical municipalities in Alberta include Bonneyville M.D., with 7 coun-

cil members representing a population of 12,000, scattered over 67 townships. Leduc County has 7 members of council representing a population of 13,260 across 29 townships. These are typical of those surveyed. Perhaps irrelevant to some, Corman Park has one more member of council than either Regina or Saskatoon and only 2 less than the City of Edmonton and 3 less than Calgary, with a population of 1,338,200. Corman Park has the largest number of elected persons on council of any other rural or urban municipality in the prairie provinces with the exception of the very large cities (3). Any comparison regarding representation in either the federal or provincial jurisdictions is not relevant to municipal government under the terms of the current provincial Municipalities Act. Sincerely, Fred J. Sutter RMA/UMA

Set provincial election date has benefits My condolences if you are feeling a little election fatigued already. With the provincial election still a good four months away, you may already be fed up with it. By now, it s quite possible that you ve already had candidates knocking on your door in the hopes or winning your vote. (That you might have long ago made up your mind offers little reprieve. If the political party of your choice knows you re committed, you ve likely already been hit up by now for political donations or lawn signs.) But even if you haven t been personally solicited yet, you still may feel like you re in the middle of a campaign. Parties are already starting to run ads. And in the case of that NDP radio ad we discussed in this space last week, the ads are nasty and even misleading and fabricated. This does not bode well for a pleasant campaign. Moreover, it s not just the political parties getting in on the act. We are now seeing the unions and business community-Chambers of Commerce squaring off with their thin-

CLARK S CROSSING

Corman Park is an amalgamation of three rural municipalities; Park (Langham area), Warman and Cory (area surrounding Saskatoon) The amalgamation occurred in 1970. Although I did not participate in the details of the amalgamation, I was employed by the department at that time. Each of the three municipalities was concerned about representation on council and hence, to make the amalgamation more palatable, good governance was sacrificed for political compromise. The number of divisions (councillors) and the demographic distribution resulted in a municipality, potentially divisive, difficult and complex to govern. It is to the credit to the heads of council which I served and the other elected members, that council was a cohesive body, providing fair and equitable municipal services throughout the municipality. Whether a councillor was from the Langham or Warman area, they were sympathetic to the services required by the more urban devel-

petition - would realign the division boundaries to make Division 3 the second-smallest area, and second-smallest population. Division 7 would have the largest area and the largest population. The perfidious proposal is about gerrymandering and is not recognized in Canadian democracy. Perhaps Beaver Creek could be attached to the RM of Dundurn, if they agree.

ly veiled political ads in support of the NDP and Saskatchewan Party, respectively. And the fact that we have known for some time that Nov. 7 is going to be the election date is being partly blamed for what will be a very long election campaign. One of the downsides of set election dates is clearly that. Without officially extending Saskatchewan s 28-day to 34-day writ period, it pretty much accomplishes the same thing by offering a target in which the parties can now aim. Part of that strategy is now the slow building of momentum, meaning that this campaign has started much earlier. Another downside of a regimented date every four years is that it may even effect public policy by causing the governing parties to hold back spending until the year or final months before a campaign in the hopes of buying votes with taxpayers own money. Similarly, it offers a target for oppositions in which they hold back legitimate criticism of government until they can most conveniently capitalize. But all this said, set election dates might still be better than the old guessing game of when the election date will be. For starters, having no specific set election date always gave governments a hideous advantage in that governments could manipulate government spending to their advantage or call an election slightly earlier or later to take advantage of ebbs and

flows in the economy. Premier Brad Wall becomes the first Saskatchewan Premier to forego this advantage. And in fairness to his Sask. Party government, his last budget didn t exactly go on a wild taxcutting/spending spree to leave one final positive impression with voters. Add to the fact that Sask. Party government s set election date legislation also puts limits on government spending in the lead up to election and it makes for a better system. As for those campaigning on your doorstep or blitzing you with radio ads, it s likely better for them as well. Candidates making the huge commitment of running for public life can more easily plan their entry into politics, which has to be a good thing for the process. Volunteers can more efficiently schedule their time, making this far more democratic. This should make things slightly more civil and perhaps even attract better candidates. And whether it s the parties themselves or their supporters spending money on advertising before the writ, that went on before anyway. At least this way, they can be more cost-effective. Similarly, past political advertising was also nasty, so getting some of the nastiness out of the way early may not for be such a bad thing. It might even result in better debate. Yes, it makes for a longer campaign. But, hopefully, it will be a better one.

CORRECTION The July 29 edition of the Clark s Crossing Gazette incorrectly identified the Division numbers of councilors Irene Pilka and Joanne Janzen. Pilka represents Division 7 and Janzen represents Division 8.

Corman Park initiates review of business tax abatement policy By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Faced with a serious budget squeeze, the RM of Corman Park council is launching a review of its current commercial and industrial business tax abatement program. Wendy Trask, Division 9 councilor for the RM of Corman Park, says the policy needs to be reviewed to determine if the costs outweigh the benefits. She put forward a notice of motion to eliminate the five year tax abatement for new commercial development in the RM, effective January 1, 2012. The motion specifies that current abatement agreements will remain in effect. During the RM council meeting Monday, August 8, Trask said the municipality is feeling the budgetary pinch in large part because of the aggressive gravelling program that was implemented earlier this year. Noting that while the program was desperately needed, Trask said it puts a strain on the RM s budget and would likely mean an unavoidable tax increase for the ratepayers. To cushion the cost to taxpayers, council pulled some funds from its reserve. We know that we have an infrastructure that is deteriorating, and we need

the money, the machinery and the manpower to correct that, said Trask. This prompts us to look at where we need to tighten our belts. She said eliminating the fiveyear tax abatements for new commercial developments in the RM, which she characterized as far too generous ‒ was a good place to start. Commercial developments are getting a tax break for five years while the ratepayers are having to dig deeper in their pockets to cover the deficit, she said. It is the rich get richer theme. How can you explain that theory to the ratepayers, when they are bouncing up and down roads that we cannot afford to upgrade, or even gravel? Currently, Corman Park has a policy of providing graduated tax incentives over five years for commercial and industrial businesses that invest a minimum of $100,000 and create at least five fulltime equivalent employee positions. The policy, which was implemented in 2005, provides tax abatements for new developments and expansions to existing developments based on a number of criteria. Businesses which qualify for the tax abatements receive a 100 percent abateContinued on Page 12 Please see TAX POLICY

Funk said the watermain break was actually a hairline fracture of an older asbestos clay (AC) pipe, which was originally installed in 1968. She said the ground around the pipe had become saturated, and a rock had apparently penetrated the pipe, causing the crack, which allowed water to leak out into the surrounding soil. She noted it is not clear how long ago the pipe was fractured, and said it could have been a slow leak for some time. The standard methodology for installing new plastic pipe now is that you pack it in sand or ďŹ ne gravel, Funk explained. This older AC pipe had a big piece of rock sitting right on top of it, so it s amazing it lasted as long as it did. She said when the original pipes were installed in 1968, people were just glad to get water, and the pipes may be undersized in relation to the present-day needs of the town.

Warman RCMP lay drug charges Three drug-related charges were laid in the Town of Warman during the month of June, according to the Warman Detachment of the RCMP. In a monthly report to the Warman Town Council meeting on Monday, July 25, Constable Dallas Fee said there were 3 residential break-ins during June, as well as 1 stolen vehicle reported to police. A total of 4 liquor-related tickets were issued by police during the month. There were 4 traffic collisions in June, and a total of 24 traffic tickets isused. These included 11 seat belt

violations, 6 roadside suspensions, 1 stop sign ticket and 1 driving while disqualified. Three were 9 mischief complaints reported, 3 calls to 911, and 20 false alarm calls. Fee told councilors while the number of false alarm calls may seem high, it is not out of line with similar-size municipalities. He also noted the number of mischief complaints was relatively low for June, but said that number would likely rise once the totals are calculated for July and August. During the council meeting, it was noted that a break-

11

in had occured at the Town of Warman shop in late July. Perpetrators had gained ac-

cecss to the locked compound and stole a tractor and mower. The tractor and mower were

later recovered at Prairie Oasis park, and the tractor was relatively undamaged.

ment in the first year, an 80 percent abatement in the second year, a 60 percent abatement in the third year, a 40 percent abatement in the fourth year, and a 20 percent abatement in the fifth and final year of the program. To qualify for the abatement program, businesses must invest a minimum of $100,000 in construction value and create a minimum of 5 full-time equivalent jobs throughout the period of the abatement. Businesses must apply for the tax abatement prior to applying for a building permit, and must outline the proposed project in detail, including the product to be manufactured, proposed timing of development and construction dates. The policy is modeled on similar programs offered by the City of Saskatoon and other municipalities in the area. Recently, Saskatoon raised the minimum investment requirement for businesses to qualify for the tax abatement program to $500,000 to reflect market realities. While councilors at the meeting agreed to review the RM s tax abatement policy, some elected representatives worried that eliminating the program altogether could make the RM less attractive for investors. Division 4 councilor John Germs said while he favours a review of the policy, he noted there are risks involved in removing tax breaks for new businesses. I d hate to have the RM be seen to be a less competitive business environment, Germs said. I think you have to look at the whole revenue pie, and where the revenue to maintain our municipal roads comes from. A large portion of that revenue comes from

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 2011 our industrial and commercial tax base. We have a lot of businesses in the RM, and if we were to lose that base, would that increase the tax burden for residents in the long run? Division 10 councilor Joe Kasahoff said Corman Park is an attractive place to invest, and shouldn t have to rely on tax breaks. A lot of companies are going to set up shop here because it s close to Saskatoon, he said. Division 3 councilor Lynn Samson said the tax abatements are on a graduated scale, and the business receives a 100 percent abatement only in its first year. She said changing the policy may raise tax revenue slightly in the short term, there may be less revenue in the long run. You have to look at the amount of taxes that will flow from those businesses over many years into the future, she said. The return on investment is significant. Adrienne Jensen, senior director of business development with the Saskatoon Regional Economic Development Authority (SREDA), provided an overview of business incentive policies used by a number of Saskatchewan municipalities. In a presentation to the RM council meeting, Jensen said there are two schools of thought on the issue, with some municipalities providing tax incentives to businesses on a case

by case basis while others implement specific programs. Some municipalities believe businesses shouldn t get any incentives, she said. But if two municipalities are equal in all aspects, and one of them offers tax incentives that lower the costs to business, it certainly makes that offer very attractive. Jensen said four municipalities that border Corman Park, including Martensville, Osler, RM of Blucher, and Saskatoon, offer tax abatement programs over five years, The Town of Warman has a three-year, 100 percent tax abatement program for new and expanding businesses. The Town of Rosthern also offers a 3-year sliding scale for tax abatements. Municipalities that consider business tax abatements on a case by case basis include Aberdeen, RM of Aberdeen, Asquith, Borden, Clavet, Dalmeny, Delisle, RM of Great Bend, Hague, Hepburn, Langham, Laird, RM of Laird, Radisson, Vanscoy, RM of Vanscoy, Waldheim, and the RM of Rosthern. Jensen offered SREDAs assistance to the RM council in drafting options for revising the current tax abatement policy. Council then opted to send the issue to its administration committee to research and report back on potential options and implications of changing the policy.

Fitness Tips

Delisle falls short at Senior B fastball tourney By PAT PECKOVER peckpatr@uregina.ca

with Valerie Kirk Vitamin C and Heart Disease – Part 2 – There is evidence that low levels of vitamin C can increase the risk of hardening the arteries (atherosclerosis) and that vitamin c supplements may decrease this risk. This could have something to do with how vitamin C may lower Creative protein (CRP), a compound linked to heart disease (FYI: some studies show exercise can lower CRP levels also). Therefore, more research is needed on this issue, but you need vitamin C in your diet just not mega doses.

Vitamin C land Cancer – Part 3 – Studies show that low vitamin C levels may be linked to some types of cancers, but again, the research stems mostly from individuals who have vitamin C deficiencies. The question then becomes, is it low vitamin C levels that promote cancer or is it something else? Or is it a combination of many factors? • Discounts and coupons available with bookings • Training available in my gym or a gym of your choice • Personalized one-on-one training

The Delisle Diamond Dogs had high hopes going into the weekend, but even though the sun came out on the last day of the tournament, the skies stayed grey for the Dogs. The Dogs competed in the 2011 Softball Saskatchewan Senior B Men s Provincial Championship in Saskatoon July 22-24. Highly ranked going into the tournament, Delisle got off to a good start, winning their first game 13-6 against the Saskatoon Tint Centre Cubs. The Dogs sent eight batters to the plate in the first inning, scoring two runs. The Cubs used their half of the inning wisely though, taking a 3-2 lead. Delisle sent another nine batters to the plate in the second inning, scoring three runs with their efforts. The Cubs tied it up at five in the third inning, before the Dogs took a 7-5 lead in their half of the third. The Diamond Dogs cemented their win with five runs in the fourth for a 10-5 lead, before scoring three more in the sixth for a 13-6 victory. Delisle coach Joel Durham said it was a good game, although very close until the later innings. The difference between the teams was in their batting, he added. Our bats came alive near the end, although we scored runs every inning, Durham said. Our pitching was also good and held us in the game. The Dogs won their second game 14-3 over the Saskatoon KW Home Hawks, then won their third game of the round robin 4-2 over the Regina Silver Screen. Durham said the team s hitting carried them through in the game against the Hawks, as they scored six runs in both the second and third innings. The game against Regina went into extra innings though as it was a pitchers duel, he noted. Going into the last inning, the Hawks pitcher had a one hitter going, while our pitcher was working on a two-hitter, Durham said. The Dogs, who finished first in their pool, had their first game of the playoff round against the Bruno Merchants on Sunday morning,

Despite Rouse s and his team s efforts, Bulyea won the game 9-7, leaving the Dogs with a third place finish in the 2011 Softball Saskatchewan Senior B Men s Provincial Championship.

but it didn t go so good. The Dogs lost 5-0 to Bruno. We just couldn t hit, said Durham about the game. Actually, we hit not bad, but their defence made some good plays and we couldn t get anything to drop in. The loss dropped Delisle to the semifinal against the Bulyea Rustlers. We battled back and forth, but Bulyea is one of the top hitting teams at this tournament, Durham said of their 7-9 loss to the Rustlers. Our biggest problem was that our pitchers were tired out, he added. They threw a lot of pitches to get here. The team was disappointed with their third place finish at the tournament, Durham said. Their goal was to go to Western Canadians in Manitoba in August, but only the top two teams at Provincials advanced. Bruno defeated Bulyea 12-3 in the final to claim the Provincial title.

Shepherd claims victory at Saskatoon NASCAR event Pete Shepherd III made a last-lap pass of DJ Kennington to win the Velocity Prairie Thunder NASCAR Canadian Tire Series race at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway on Wednesday, July 27 Shepherd seized the opportunity when JR Fitzpatrick spun out of second place late in the race. Shepherd challenged Kennington on the restart and was able to get by him coming to the checkered flag to score his second career series win in his first visit to the Saskatoon track. The 24-year-old Brampton, Ont., competitor became the sixth different driver to visit Victory Lane this season. Don Thomson Jr. trailed the pair across the line in third. Kerry Micks was fourth, with Mark Dilley taking fifth. Rounding out the top 10 were Jason Hathaway, Ron Beauchamp Jr., Dan Shirley, JR Fitzpatrick and James Van Domselaar. Kennington, who had set a track record in winning the Keystone Light Pole Award in qualifying earlier in the day, paced the field for nearly 100 laps early and went on to lead the most laps. Shepherd, who started alongside Kennington on the front row, was never far away, however. Kennington gave up the top spot on Lap 100 as the leaders made pit stops during the fourth caution. Follow-

ing another round of pit stops during a subsequent caution period, Kennington came out of the pits in third behind Fitzpatrick and Jason Hathaway. He quickly moved to second and got by Fitzpatrick for the lead on Lap 227. Meanwhile, Shepherd was also making his way to the front. He was up to fourth by Lap 202 and third by Lap 231. When Fitzpatrick spun on Lap 240, while running second, it opened the door for Shepherd to make his move.

He edged Kennington by .045 seconds. The win gives Shepherd a top five finish in five of his last seven starts. The race was slowed due to caution six times for 52 laps and the lead changed hands nine times among six drivers.

Know when and how to call 911 Dialing 911 is a quick efficient way for people to summon help when they encounter an emergency situation which requires the police, the fire department and/or the ambulance immediately. Calling for a non-emergency, a prank or a carelessly dialed 911 call interrupts the 911 service for someone who is in an emergency situation and needs immediate help. This situation could result in a life being lost or serious property damage. This can be avoided if everyone remembers when to call 911, how it works, and what number to call when people are wanting to contact the police for non-emergency

assistance? The answers to these questions are found in the pamphlet called FALSE 911 Calls . F Division RCMP is initiating an awareness program around Saskatchewan in the next couple of weeks. Use 911 to report any emergency situation where

RUBBER MULCH

police (crime in progress), fire (car accident, building fire) or an ambulance is required immediately. In an non-emergency, RCMP in Saskatchewan can be contacted at the detachment which serves your community or by calling 310RCMP (310-7267).

CORRECTIONS The Warman Gems senior men s fastball team previously won an Intermediate B provincial title. This year marks the first time they have won the Intermediate A provincial title. The ROLO group, which represents the interests of off-leash dog owners, is supportive of the City of Saskatoon s proposed plan, adopted in 2010, for the Chief Whitecap Park. An article in the July 28 edition indicating ROLO s opposition to the plan was based on statements posted on ROLO s website, which had not been updated since 2009.

Misuse of the organics waste depot will result in fines to offenders, and the service could be discontinued if there is excessive misuse. The new service is being implemented on a trial basis, according to the town office, and will be in effect for the balance of the 2011 growing season. Council will be discussing the issue over the next few months and will make a decision on the future of the organic waste depot and waste collection system based on costs and the needs of the community as a whole. Warman town council currently does not plan to alter the existing schedule for alternating garbage and recycling pickups.

Pursuit leads to arrest of Lloyd man A 20-year-old Lloydminster man is in custody following a short criminal pursuit by Saskatoon Police north of the city. Just before 4:00 a.m. Thursday, August 4 an officer on patrol witnessed a vehicle driving at a high rate of speed, travelling north on Idylwyld Drive near 33rd Street. The officer followed the half ton truck at a safe distance until it reached city limits where it engaged in a short criminal pursuit. The driver refused to stop for police and reached speeds of 140 km/hr. Due to safety concerns the pursuit was called off near Martensville. A few minutes later, as the officer was making notes in his patrol car, the truck was spotted again this time heading south toward Saskatoon. Other patrol units were notified and stop sticks were deployed at 39th Street and Idylwyld Drive. The suspect surrendered to police after his vehicle became disabled.
