Driver of stolen van arrested after 85-kilometer pursuit on Yellowhead Highway Submitted by Sgt. Warren Gherasim Acting Commander Warman RCMP Detachment

O

n August 15 at approximately 1:00 am the Warman RCMP observed a Dodge Caravan traveling through a red light at a high rate of speed at the intersection of Idylwyld and Marquis Drive. The Member activated his emergency equipment, but the driver of the Caravan continued. The driver refused to stop and lead Members on an eighty five kilometre pursuit, westbound on Highway 16. During the pursuit, the van was driven in an erratic manner and determined to be stolen.

The Caravan eventually ran out of gas approximately two kilometres east of Ruddell. The driver, a 21 year old male from Saskatoon and also of the North Battleford District, was arrested for evading police, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, possession of stolen property and breach of probation. He was scheduled to appear in Saskatoon Provincial Court Monday, AUgust 20. His passenger, a 21 year male from the North Battleford District was arrested for evading police and was released for a future court date.

STUCK IN THE MIDDLE On August 12 at about 4:00 am, RCMP officers on patrol were alerted by passing motorists to a vehicle that was in the center median of Highway 16 near Langham. Police attended and found the vehicle stuck in the median, missing a wheel.

A roadside screening device test was administered to the driver, which he failed.

The driver was taken back to the RCMP detachment and further breath tests were conducted, with results that were almost twice the legal limit.

The driver, a 56 year old man from Saskatoon, was released for a first appearance in Saskatoon Provincial Court on September 27.

COLLISION NEAR DELISLE On August 13 at 6:40 pm RCMP responded to a two vehicle collision on Highway 7 near Delisle. On arrival police found 2 vehicles in the ditch,

and five people with minor injuries, two of whom were taken to hospital as a precaution.

Alcohol was not a factor in the crash, but the investigation revealed that one of the drivers, a man from Saskatoon, had fallen asleep at the wheel, rear-ending the other vehicle on the highway. He was charged with Driving without Due Care and Attention under the Traffic Safety Act.

THEFT FROM GARAGE On the night of August 12 to 13, a garage at a residence on Bendel Crescent in Martensville was entered and a vehicle inside broken into.

It is believed that the garage door had been left open.

The culprits were able to steal a stereo and navigation system from the vehicle, valued at about $2000.00. The theft was noticed the following evening, and a police investigation was initiated, and continued with the assistance of the RCMP Forensic Identification Unit. Anyone with information about this crime is asked to contact police, and the public are reminded to ensure the security of homes and vehicles.

LANGHAM VANDALISM On August 15 RCMP received a complaint from the Town of Langham, advising of damage to the windows of some town equipment. The machines were parked in a fenced compound owned by the town. The damage is believed to have been done over the previous weekend, and on the night of August 14. Police have been made aware of some suspects, and will continue with the investigation in speaking to persons of interest on the matter. Anyone with any information regarding this occurrence is encouraged to contact police.

LANGHAM THEFT On August 10 police received a report of a wallet being stolen from a vehicle parked in a driveway at a residence on Finch Crescent in Langham. The complainant had thought the vehicle was locked, but it was entered without causing any damage, so it was apparently insecure at the time of the theft. It is possible the unlock button on the key fob was inadvertently pressed. Anyone with infor-

The Saskatoon Fire Marshals Office and Warman RCMP are continuing to investigate.

YOUTHS STILL AT LARGE On August 13 at 11:15 pm, police had a call from a res-

idence in a rural area north of Radisson that three youths had run away from a group home there. Police attended to the area and located one youth, who was returned home. The other two remain missing at this time, believed to be in either Saskatoon or North Battleford, and the police investigation is continuing. Anyone with any knowledge of this matter, who may have information on the whereabouts of the two missing youths, are asked to contact police.

The police investigation into the matter is ongoing, and any witnesses are asked to contact the RCMP.

GOOD PLACE TO PASS OUT On August 16 at 1:00 am police officers returning to the detachment in Warman found an adult female passed out on the ground in front of the detachment. Attempts were made to take her home, but she was uncooperative and causing problems, and was not accepted by family members into the home.

Progress being made on retail big box centre development

By TERRY PUGH

T

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

here may not be any shovels in the ground yet, but a lot of behind-the-scenes work is progressing on a multi-million dollar, big-box shopping centre slated for Warman’s north end.

The Warman StoneGate Commercial Development is being spearheaded by Avatex Devcorp, an Edmonton-based corporation which has developed several similar projects in Alberta and Saskatchewan. The shopping centre will be situated on 30 acres of land north of Warman at the intersection of the new Highway 305 and Range Road 3050 (also known as Centennial Boulevard or Neuhorst Road).

“Things are going well,” said Gord Dmytruk, a retail consultant for Avatex, in an interview August 20. “We’re very happy with the progress that’s been made so far.”

While Dmytruk was not able to confirm the companies that are committed to setting up shop in the centre, he said an announcement may be made within the next few weeks.

Dmytruk did provide an aerial photograph of the area where the development will be located, as well as a proposed layout of the shopping complex with suggestions for various types of businesses. Potential businesses include a large grocery store, bank, hotel, and a number of retail outlets including a major retail anchor.

Plans for the shopping complex were initially unveiled at a press conference in Warman in mid-May shortly after the developer acquired the land, and Dmytruk notes that negotiations with major retail tenants does take time.

The total retail space in the shopping centre will be approximately 250,000 square feet when it is fully developed, according to Dmytruk.

The realignment of Highway 305 is key to the whole development, noted Dmytruk, adding that he is optimistic work on the new highway will begin in the near future.

HIGHWAY TALKS While officials with the Town of Warman were hopeful that construction work on the new Highway 305 would begin this summer, the project is taking longer than anticipated.

Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence said she remains optimistic the highway will be completed quickly. Still, she raised concerns about the slower-than-expected pace of the project with Martensville MLA Nancy Heppner last week. ““It’s my understanding there are still some negotiations taking place with landowners,” Spence said. “But I had a discussion with our MLA for this area, and she agreed that it was very important for the highway to be finished in a timely manner. It’s an ongoing process, and we should be hearing back from the provincial government on the timeline for completion very shortly.”

The Warman StoneGate Commercial Development will be situated on 30 acres of land north of Warman at the intersection of Highway 305 and Centennial Boulevard / Neuhorst Road.

(DRAWINGS SUBMITTED BY AVATEX DEVCORP)

Nancy Heppner confirmed in a telephone interview on Tuesday, August 21 that the issue had been raised with Ministry of Highways personnel and further information would be forthcoming in the near future.

“I expect to be meeting with the Minister of Highways and Infrastructure very soon,” stated Heppner. “It’s my understanding that the majority of the land aquisition for the highway is complete, but they are still waiting for a few pieces of the project to be put in place. The timeline for construction of the realigned highway should be made public soon.”

Meanwhile, the development company continues to meet with a wide range of businesses interested in becoming established in the area.

“There will be a variety of companies that set up shop,” concluded Dmytruk.

Charges laid in rash of recent break-ins

HOT OFF THE GRILL Glen Braun (right) and Bruce Peters were on hand with the rest of the Hague Fire Department for a pancake breakfast held in conjuntion with Hague Service Centre’s Customer Appreciation Day on Saturday morning. Funds raised by the department at the breakfast will be used to help offset the costs of purchasing and upgrading equipment.

Rosthern RCMP have laid charges against two individuals in relation to a rash of Break-Ins that occurred in the Hague and Waldheim Districts over the last two weeks.

According to the Rosthern RCMP, evidence led to the arrests a 17 year old male from the town of Hague and a 19 year old from the Hepburn area.

This evidence also led to the execution of two search warrants, which located further evidence to the Break and Enters.

RCMP say the 17 year old male, whose name cannot be released, is charged with a total of 29 charges including; Break and Enter, Possession of Stolen Property and Breach Probation.

The 19 year old man, Cory Henry, has been charged with six counts of break and enter.

Both are being held in custody pending bail hearings later this week.

Wholesale trade posts record Saskatchewan’s wholesale numbers for June posted a monthly record according to a report released by Statistics Canada.

Wholesale trade totalled $1.96 billion in June, the highest ever recorded for that month.

“When an economy is making steady gains, wholesale trade typically rises to meet the needs of business and consumers,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. “This is a very solid improvement over last year, and really shows how strong our economy is as we reach the mid-way point of 2012.”

On an annual basis, wholesale trade was up 7.1 per cent over last June, the second highest percentage increase among provinces and better than the 6.3 per cent rise nationally.

“Saskatchewan’s Global Transportation Hub continues to expand, and is contributing to growth in the province’s wholesale sector,” Boyd said. “This will likely continue as more businesses move into the hub and as the busy Saskatchewan economy creates more demand for products.”

Clark’s Crossing Road signage campaign nears fundraising goal

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

T

he fundraising campaign for Clark’s Crossing Road is rapidly approaching its target of $3500, according to Margaret HeinWiebe, one of the organizers of the campaign.

Hein-Wiebe, a long-time resident of the district just north of Saskatoon that was once the site of the small community of Clark’s Crossing, said current and former residents are enthusiastic about the idea of designating Township Road 381 as Clark’s Crossing Road. The fundraising campaign is aimed at covering the cost of municipal road signs that will be placed at intersections along the road later this fall.

“It’s very exciting,” said Hein-Wiebe, secretary-treasurer of the Clark’s Crossing Historic Group (CCHG), noting that many donors have contributed to the campaign. “We have $2525 in the account as of August 20, so we don’t have

Huskie men’s hockey moves to Credit Union Centre Huskie Athletics is pleased to announce the University of Saskatchewan men’s hockey team will play two games in Saskatoon’s Credit Union Centre this season.

The venue, home to the 2013 & 2014 CIS PotashCorp University Cup, will play host to the Huskies on October 19-20 when bitter rival the University of Alberta Golden Bears visit.

“This is another opportunity for our team to get our team acquainted and comfortable playing in the building before we host the national championship,” said Huskie head coach Dave Adolph. “It is a great venue and a good place to watch a hockey game. We look forward to taking our game there.”

Puck drop for October 19 is 7 p.m., while the October 20 game is set for 2 p.m.

All other 2012-13 Huskie men’s hockey games will continue to be played at Rutherford Rink on campus.

Tickets will go on sale for these two games on Friday, August 10 at 10 a.m.Tickets can be purchased in person at the Credit Union Centre, by calling 1-800-970-7328 or 306-938-7800 or online at www.ticketmaster.ca

much further to go.”

Hein-Wiebe said one of the more notable donors is 92-year old Edward Penner of Sault Sainte Marie, Ontario.

A former head of the National Research Council of Canada, Penner grew up on a farm alongside Township Road 381 in the Clark’s Crossing district. He sent $500 toward the project.

Donors that have contributed $250 toward the campaign include Q-Line Trucking, Saskatoon Truck Parts, Don and Gladys Wiebe, Saskatoon Snowmobile Club, Herman and Anne Guenther and Russel Fehr. Many small-

er contributions have come from individuals.

The RM of Corman Park council approved a request from the Clark’s Crossing Historic Group to designate Township Road 381 as Clark’s Crossing Road at a meeting last fall.

The RM has ordered the road signs, which are expected to be erected sometime this fall.

The group also intends to erect an historic marker at the site of the former Clark’s Crossing railway station, post office and store. Hein-Wiebe said the group is currently designing the stone cairn and deciding on the appropriate wording for the marker itself.

The subtle art of political change

C O M M E N T A R Y

Harper Gov’t needs to get serious about out-of-control payroll costs

It appears Premier Brad Wall’s Saskatchewan Party government has tapped into the formula for political success in the province.

Or at least, the Sask. Party leader and his party have tapped into the formula of saying what people like to hear from their government and then massaging public opinion so that voters can more easily see things the government’s way.

Prior to embarking last week for the government caucus’s annual summer retreat at the lovely Elk Ridge Resort, Wall explained that his MLAs recently asked their constituents the following three questions: “How do we keep growth going?” “How do we make sure people are benefiting from the growth?” “How do we deal with the challenges related to growth?”

Perhaps to no one’s surprise, infrastructure – specifically, the state of Saskatchewan roads – was at the top of that list. “There are more potholes than pavement right now and we have to deal with infrastructure concerns,” said Wall, whose strength may be his ability to come across as relatable and humble. He added that the two other re-occuring themes that emerged from the MLAs’ questionnaire were health care and debt reduction.

On the surface, this would seem neither surprising nor a particularly great use of government time and energy when it comes to policy development. To have such obvious generalities like “highways”, “debt reduction” and “health care” emerge, as the most pressing issues would hardly seem enlightening.

But if it isn’t great policy development, it is subtle, smart politics all about massaging voter opinion so it’s more aligned with your own philosophy. After all, it’s always good to ask people’s opinion in this province, but it’s an especially good idea to frame the questions in such a way that it cross-sects the great left-right dichotomy that is Saskatchewan politics.

Since the early days of this province when people risked it all for the chance of prosperity, there has always been an entrepreneurial spirit that appreciates the need for wealth creation. That said, the recognition that Saskatchewan people might not have survived this harsh climate without a highly co-operative approach plays into the notion that we should all benefit a fair share from the benefits of growth.

From these two contrasting ideals has emerged the

As the Harper government moves at a snail’s pace to get a handle on spending, it’s becoming obvious we need tougher action on trimming the federal payroll in order to balance the budget and deliver cost-effective government.

The world economy is weaker than Finance Minister Jim Flaherty hoped when he delivered his budget in March.

In fact, year-end numbers released in May showed revenues down $3.5 billion just from the budget’s projections less than two months earlier.

In the meantime, Canadians watch the bills roll in, as the Harper Conservatives tiptoe through the modest cost-cutting exercise Flaherty outlined last March.

Consider the outrageous severance payouts and “workforce adjustment” benefits coming to federal government employees faced with job losses: the budget earmarked $900 million as part of a plan to reduce its headcount by 19,200 positions by 2015. That works out to nearly $50,000 in compensation for every job eliminated.

Many of these cuts in the federal payroll will result from government employees leaving of their own accord, either by quitting, retiring or going back to school. Until two years ago, these people were entitled to severance pay, ranging from three weeks’ pay after one year of service, all the way up to 22 weeks’ pay. As union contracts have come up for renegotiation, the government has been eliminating this costly entitlement: by the time they’re done buying out the bureaucrats, the total tab is expected to hit $6 billion.

But that’s only part of the pain. Federal government employees take more days off than the rest of us do: 18 days a year, including short-term disability claims. That’s 2.5 times as many sick days as the rest of us take. On average, 19,500 federal employees are off the job “sick” on any given day, especially the days around long weekends.

But perhaps we should be happy they’re calling in sick, because it’s nearly as bad when they don’t. If federal employees happen to stay as healthy as the rest of us, then they just accumulate all their unused sick days. The sick-day boondoggle is costing us over $1 billion a year – in cash. As of right now, taxpayers “owe” federal employees collectively about $5.2 billion for unused sick time.

The final piece of the federal government’s payroll headache is its so-called workplace adjustment program: it provides additional benefits for employees facing a layoff, over and above severance benefits and accumulated sick pay. Payouts range from 22 weeks of pay for someone with one year as a federal employee under their belt, to 52 weeks for a 30-year veteran.

Federal employees facing a layoff can retire without losing pension benefits and they’re protected from taking less senior or lower-paying jobs. And if they decide to leave and go back to school the government pays offers $11,000 towards educational expenses. So far, the Harper Conservatives have shown no interest in tackling workplace adjustment entitlements.

Despite dire predictions of massive public sector and private-sector job losses ranging from 40,000 to 100,000 jobs, the numbers so far tell a different story, with Statistics Canada reporting a year-over-year reduction of only 7,204 federal jobs across Canada. And Ottawa itself continues to boom: in the past year, 16,700 new jobs have been created just in the nation’s capital, where the unemployment rate sits at 6 per cent. 3,200 additional job seekers have joined the labour force, looking for work. And why not? With Mr. Flaherty forecasting annual federal spending to rise by $19 billion between now and the next election, the smart money is riding on the federal gravy train.

tug-o-war that has been Saskatchewan political debate between the right and left ... although what’s often missed is how willingly both sides pay homage to other party’s philosophical viewpoint to appease the majority.

This, too, seems like a big part of the meeting in Elk Ridge as Wall talked about dealing with the “infrastructure deficit” that may need to be addressed “in more innovative ways” like partnerships with municipalities and private sector that have the expertise “so that we can get more work done.”

Gone are the days of the clumsy. bull-in-the-china-shop approach of Grant Devine’s highways minister Jim Garner who sold off government highway equipment and explained fired highways workers were being “transferred to the private sector.”

Wall seems significantly more skilled at the more subtle nuances of the political game.

Meanwhile, one can’t even begin to discuss with Wall and the Sask. Party the notion of selling money-losing STC or even public liquor stores and other major Crowns.

While there is little subtlety when it comes to how the left-right political divide in Saskatchewan is played out in the legislature or on coffee row, talk radio or the internet, there is a actually lot of subtlety when it comes to massaging people’s views so that it is more in line with government thinking.

CLARK’S CROSSING

Coben to be Inducted into Sask. Golf Hall of Fame

By HILARY KLASSEN

hilaryklassen@gmail.com

Colin Coben of Delisle has been winning his share of tournaments this summer. He is being inducted into the Saskatchewan Golf Hall of Fame.

“Golf isn’t everything,” is quite a statement coming from Colin Coben. The Delisle native has been winning tournaments lately, the Saskatchewan Senior Men’s Championship for example. Held in Melfort, the three day event invites amateur male golfers 55 years and over to compete for the trophy. Out of more than seventy competitors in the July 23 – 25 tournament, Coben won handily, finishing with nine fewer strokes than the next contender.

Coben garnered a second win at the Northern Saskatchewan Amateur Golf Tournament in Prince Alberta August 4-7. With four previous wins at this tournament, he was a threat to all comers. As the defending champion, he was the one to beat, but managed to hold off all other hungry title seekers.

Coben got his start early at age five or six and really enjoyed it, learning to play on the original Delisle course with sand greens. He used to caddy Bev Bentley and for his parents who were members of the Saskatoon Golf and Country Club.

“These days young golfers don’t caddy. But you learn about the game as a caddy. You learn etiquette and get your interest up.” He didn’t play at all from age 15 – 19 and there was no junior golf. Instead he played ball. “I was a later bloomer,” he says.

At 57, Coben is a young senior and likes to mix things up between senior, amateur and mid-amateur tournaments.

He admits he doesn’t practice.

“You always wonder how much better you would be if you did.”

But he plays every weekend and on men’s night in Delisle.

The course there was built seven or eight years ago on a field

right behind his house. It’s a nine hole course and on Thursday nights the men play the first round from the blue tee off and the “back nine” from the reds, which changes the distance to the pin.

Over the years, he’s learned how to manage his game better. At first, he watched some top players like Brian Bamford who made his first team in ’93 and was the top player in the province. “I hung around with him, watching him play golf, how he got around the course. It’s not always about hitting it a mile, it’s about course management.”

“My course management is okay,” he says. He’s tried to learn patience. “If you have a bad hole, get over it.” Coben remembers a couple of times trying to qualify and being four strokes over and getting mad. “What contributes to winning? There’s way more to the game than just hitting. It’s all upstairs.

You have to control your emotions.”

And he adds, “you want to be social, but you gotta behave.”

Next up for Coben is competing in the Canadian Men’s Senior Golf Championship, hosted by Le Griffon des Sources in Mirabel, Que, August 28-31. The winner of this tournament will earn an exemption into the 2012 USGA Senior Amateur at Mountain Ridge Country Club in

West Caldwell, N.J. Following the Quebec tournament, Coben will play in Vancouver in the Canadian Mid-Amateur Championship held at Point Grey Golf and Country Club September 4-7.

Whenever possible Coben likes to have his wife Sherry Anderson caddy for him. As a world class curler, she understands the kind of commitment needed for a certain level of competition. When she is not available, he chooses not to hire a caddy he doesn’t know since he cannot predict how this will affect his game. In Montreal he will not have a caddy. But in Vancouver he says, “my son might come to caddy for me which would be really special.”

Coben will be inducted into the Saskatchewan Golf Hall of Fame on September 15. He’s excited about this honour since as he put it, “usually when you’re buried, they induct you.” Coben is young enough to enjoy the recognition.

But golf isn’t everything. Coben has three kids and six grandkids all living in BC. He says, “sometimes I feel like I’m not being grandpa as much as I should be.” But he tries to find the balance. “I love the competition and hope to keep golfing as long as my body holds up. It’s a great game.”

STARS lottery winners announced

W

illiam Chilliak of Saskatoon and Dwayne Prystupa of Regina are the grand prize winners of the 2012 STARS Air Ambulance Saskatchewan Lottery.

Chilliak won the Saskatoon showhome worth over $1 million while Prystupa will get the keys to a $1.2 million home in the Queen City.

Prystupa said his phone rang all morning following the draw and news of his grand prize win still doesn’t seem real. “Winning this house feels like a dream. This is absolutely fantastic.” Prystupa added that he used to work in Alberta and understands how important STARS is to the community, and was happy to purchase a ticket in support of the organization.

Chilliak was overwhelmed with emotion to learn of his prize.

“STARS is a very good cause and it wasn’t even a question in my mind of whether or not to support the lottery. Winning is a shock.”

Chilliak plans to retire next year and said this prize just made his future planning a lot easier.

Robert and Ron Petrie of Broadview won the Home Away From Home truck and trailer package worth over $194,000 retail. The early bird draw took place on July 11 with Cecile Curran of Regina claiming a prize package worth over $90,880 retail which included a 2012 Mercedes SLK350, a Las Vegas vacation, plus $5,000 cash.

This year’s STARS Lottery generated approximately $1.2 milCont. on Page 17, please see “LOTTERY WINNERS”

Members of North Corman Park Search and Rescue comb an area near the South Saskatchewan River on Saturday morning looking for clues in relation to a ficticious missing persons report

By TERRY JENSON tjenson@ccgazette.ca

S

quawking radios and quiet chatter permeates the mid-morning summer air as birds sing and beetles chirp in the distance. While most residents are gleefully enjoying yet another beautiful August morning, a small team of six men and women with North Corman Park Search and Rescue (NCPSR) huddle around Sean McCallen. They listen intently, make mental notes and prepare themselves for a very daunting and time consuming task – finding a missing person.

The group has completed its “Hasty Search” and is now lining up four feet apart from each other. Named “Team One” for this grid search, members begin to step gingerly through tall grass with exceptional care. Moving forward at a pace only a snail could appreciate, all eyes are fixated on the ground directly below, looking for anything that will lead the team to the missing person.

No more than five minutes into the search, the line abruptly halts and the team leader heads over to see what another member has found.

A shell casing from a pistol is partially covered by grass. Having been briefed prior to the commencement of the search, team members know the missing farmer was reportedly going out to do some shooting prior to his disappearance. The casing is definitely a clue. Using a handheld global positioning system (GPS), the team leader marks the spot where the casing has been found and radios the coordinates to the command centre where it is plotted on a computer program.

The search resumes.

During this grid search the team mem-

ber furthest down the line drops fluorescent orange markers to indicate the edge of the search line while the team leader at the other end ensures the group maintains a straight line by using the GPS. Again, the line stops suddenly and this time a set of keys are found. While a couple of team members take the opportunity to have a drink of water or stretch their necks upwards towards the sky, the coordinates are radioed in.

The group proceeds on for another 50

McCallen explains to the team the clues were placed in a certain order.

“The first things we found as we worked our way (southeast) were the shell casings,” he recalled. “This way, it appears he was doing some shooting and, for whatever reason, needed to move quickly as though he was chasing something by foot.

As he is running and pulling more ammunition out of his pocket, his keys, cell phone and compass fall out in different places.”

Moving forward at a pace only a snail could appreciate, all eyes are fixated on the ground directly below, looking for anything that will lead the team to the missing person. yards before reaching the end of the preplanned search grid. The team leader maintains his position as the other members move to his opposite side to begin the trek back. Along the way, a cell phone, a compass and a couple more brass shell casings are found.

“So far, they’ve done a pretty good job of finding everything,” explains McCallen, today’s command post leader as we follow a few metres behind the searchers. Stopping a few times, he notices they’ve missed a couple of items related the ficticious missing person case.

Prior to members arriving at the site, McCallen strategically planted 33 items – numerous pistol casings, the cell phone, a compass and the keys – inside today’s search grid. By the end of the exercise members have recorded a Probability of Detection (POD) percentage of just under 30 per cent.

Members of the search team nod their heads in agreement that such a scenario could, in fact, happen in a real situation.

Once the grid has been completed, the locations of all recovered items mapped on the computer are examined. Hopefully, that information can provide search coordinators with a general direction in which to continue looking for the missing individual.

McCallen then leads the team down the search grid and points out the location of a couple more casings during the debriefing.

“All in all I’d say this was a success,” he smiles. “Normally in this type of situation, we’d be looking for bigger items like shoes, clothing or something that may be discarded or looks to be out of place... things like that. The items we searched for today – like the bullet casings – are things we’d more likely see in an evidence recovery mission.”

McCallen, who is a full-time firefighter

with the City of Saskatoon, said the NCPSR conducts three to four exercises such as this one throughout the year in all four seasons in all types of weather conditions to ensure the team is fully prepared. He said searchers are either activated or put on standby by police agencies a couple times per year.

The NCPSR is made up of 35 volunteers representing the communities and rural areas of Osler, Warman, Martensville, Dalmeny, Langham and Hepburn.

With the exception of a few, all are fire department members in their respective communities. In order to become certified in search and rescue, volunteers with the organization must successfully complete a detailed course and be in good physical condition.

In addition to search and rescue, a few of the NCPSR team members are sometimes called in by law enforcement to assist in evidence recovery. McCallen said picturing a group of grown men and women crawling around on their hands and knees may look somewhat humorous but it is serious business and could result in a dangerous criminal being apprehended.

The search and rescue unit may be based in the North Corman Park area but that doesn’t mean the outfit works only in their own backyards. McCallen quickly lists off a few examples of times the NCPSR have been involved with searches elsewhere in Saskatchewan.

“Last fall we went into Saskatoon and helped search along the riverbank for missing university student Hamza Alsharief,” McCallen says. “There was also the time when we assisted in Regina looking for Tamara Keepness so we are not limited to a certain area and will be of assistance almost anywhere if called upon.”

GOING WITH THE FLOW

Larger pipeline more than doubles Warman’s capacity

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

ork began this week on installation of an 18-inch potable water pipeline in Warman.

The new pipeline replaces an existing 8-inch line, and will more than double the municipality’s potable water supply capacity.

“It’s designed to handle the future growth of the community,” stated Ivan Gabrysh, Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) for the Town of Warman. “There is currently no shortage of water here, but it’s a matter of ensuring we always have enough water in our reservoir to meet current and future needs.”

The tender for installation of the pipeline was awarded to Accurate HD Limited at the Warman council meeting on August 13. The estimated cost of the installation is $1,335,000, and will be costshared 50-50 with SaskWater, according to Gabrysh.

Potable water is supplied to Warman and several other communities including Martensville, Osler, Hague, Hepburn and Dalmeny by SaskWater through a large underground pipeline. The potable water is sourced from the City of Saskatoon water treatment plant. The Warman pipeline hooks into the SaskWater source at a point just east of the community, and will follow a route that runs along the south ditch of the existing Highway 305 (Central Street) to 2nd Avenue North, where it will turn north and then east until it reaches the town reservoir.

The seamless pipeline is being installed by means of underground directional drilling, which will minimize the impact on streets and other infrastructure in the community, noted Gabrysh.

“There will be some digging that has to occur where the pipe goes into the ground, and periodically they may

WATERLINE WORK Workers with Accurate HD Ltd, begin work on directional drilling as they install an 18-inch potable water pipeline in Warman. The pipeline connects to the SaskWater supply line west of Warman and will initially be installed along the south ditch of Highway 305. Its route will follow Central Street to 2nd Avenue North and will terminate at the municipal reservoir.

run into large rocks or other obstructions that necessitate some excavation work along the route,” said Gabrysh.

“There is a certain amount of deflection that can be done around obstacles, but if something is too big you have to dig it up.”

Accurate HD Ltd. Site Supervisor Stan Dueck said in a Facebook posting shortly after installation work commenced that the project could take approximately 2 to 3 months to complete.

“During this period of time, we will be closing down some streets and detour signs will be posted as there will be heavy equipment and long stretches of pipe to move around,” said Dueck. “We

would like to apologize ahead of time for any inconvenience this may cause.”

Randy Fehr, the newlyappointed Director of Public Works for the Town of Warman following the recent retirement of Frank Guenther from the position, said having the increased water supply capacity is important.

Fehr noted that a major priority for the community is having sufficient water in the reservoir to provide adequate fire protection.

“Some things are considered necessities, while others are luxuries,” Fehr said. “Fire protection is definitely high on the priority list when it comes to water usage.”

Department regularly monitors the level of water in the reservoir, and during periods of extended hot, dry weather, restrictions on water usage may be necessary, he noted.

Gabrysh said while the current reservoir has sufficient capacity to meet the needs of the community’s present size, it may need to be expanded in the future. Putting the larger water supply pipeline in place now will facilitate that future growth.

“The new pipeline should be able to supply a community of about 30,000 people,” Gabrysh said. “But again, you have to have a large enough reservoir to handle that inflow.”

The big advantage of installing the larger pipeline at

the present time is that it allows the existing reservoir to be replenished quickly, Gabrysh added.

“The recovery time is a big factor,” he said. “If we get a month of hot weather and no rain, our reservoir can be depleted by an unbelievable amount in a very short time because of increased water consumption.”

While the pipeline is being installed, a second part of the overall project will see construction of a new metering station at the municipal reservoir.

The new metering station will allow for better efficiency, according to Fehr.

“The water will come into the final reservoir, and the

station keeps the water fresh and moving through the various cells until it works its way through to the pumps,” Fehr explained.

Construction of the new metering station, which is projected to cost $350,000, will begin later this fall once the pipeline gets closer to the reservoir.

The new pipeline will be tied into the existing waterline at the reservoir this fall, and will eventually be hooked up to the new metering station once it is operational.

“The timing is right for this pipeline project,” concluded Gabrysh. “Now is the time to get it done because growth will continue in Warman for many years to come.”

Warman player represents Saskatchewan at 6-Nations Challenge football event

S

pencer Ulrich of Warman is representing his home province this week at a major Canadian football tournament in Ottawa.

Ulrich, an outstanding receiver and running back with the Warman Wolverines high school football team, was nominated for the Saskatchewan provincial 6-man football team earlier this year. He and his 17 teammates departed for Ottawa on Sunday, August 19, where they will spend a week in the nation’s capital, taking

part in football training and scrimmages, as well as touring universities and the Parliament Buildings.

Making the provincial team and competing in the 6-Nations Challenge tournament in Ottawa August 25 and 26 caps a busy summer for Ulrich. Not only did he play in the prestigious Roughrider Bowl in Regina several weeks ago, he’s been participating in the Saskatoon Hilltops Football Camp and is slated to begin training with the Warman

High School Wolverines next week.

Ulrich is expected back on Sunday evening, August 26.

6-NATIONS CHALLENGE The 6 Nations Challenge, which runs August 20-26 in Ottawa, is the third annual edition of the tournament. It is being organized by the Ontario Football Alliance in conjunction with the National Capital Amateur Football Association (NCAFA) and Football Canada. A total of 75

players from Saskatchewan, Ontario and Québec will take part in the tournament.

According to organizers, the 6 Nations Challenge is aimed at player development as well as increasing participation among Aboriginal players across Canada. The inaugural event was held August 2010 in Saskatoon, while the 2011 edition was held in Charlottetown, PEI. To assist in player development throughout the week, teams will hold interlocking practices against local NCAFA

club team, the South Ottawa Mustangs, as well as the CJFL’s Ottawa Sooners. The program offers opportunities for collaborative coaching.

Wednesday, August 22 featured a “shootout” challenge consisting of controlled scrimmages in which teams will receive series of 10 plays beginning at their opponents’ 45yard line.

To cap off the week, participants will face-off through a series of mini-games on Saturday, August 25.

Side football is a perfect fit for minor football, Aboriginal communities, female participants, and any community that is unequipped to manage a full 12-player program. Players are also able to develop a well-rounded skill set since they are not regulated into one position. 6-A-Side football is a fast paced game, allows 1-on-1 coaching and lets everyone touch the ball while still teaching the fundamentals of football: tackling, blocking, passing, catching and kicking.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, AUGUST 23, 2012 • PG. 13

Pro bull riders fly high in Langham Over two dozen professional bull riders from across western Canada, the United States and Australia gave the capacity crowd at the Curtis Leschyshyn PBR Invitational all they could handle Thursday night, August 16.

Wedged between the always busy Yellowhead Highway and the southwest corner of town, the bleachers were full and the cheers were loud and frequent.

Brendon Clark of Australia took home first place with an 86 point ride in the Short Go. Local competitor Beau Tallis gave his bull, Abu, a good shot but couldn’t quite make the 8-seconds. Tallis did receive a roaring cheer from the hometown crowd as he exited the arena following his first professional bull ride.

Midway through the first round of rides, Leschyshyn was brought to centre stage to recognize his contributions to the event and to the community he grew up in prior to registering a long and rewarding NHL career. Joining Leschyshyn for the evening to “learn the ropes” were current NHLers Brayden Schenn of the Philadelphia Flyers and Carter Ashton of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

All proceeds from the Curtis Leschyshyn PBR Invitational will go towards improvements of the Centennial Arena, curling rink, sports grounds and Affinity Community Hall.

Beau Hill of West Glasier, Montana caught a bit of air on the dismount following a solid 82-point ride aboard Black Chicago. Hill’s score was good enough to get him into the Short Go where he finished in fifth place.

It is now a legitimate question:

What’s wrong with the Saskatchewan Roughriders?

We’ve heard it, at times, over the course of the summer of 2012 but it never seemed like there was too much wrong with the Green & White. Their perfect play during a 3-0 start seemed too good to be true and it was unreasonable to expect it would continue for the rest of the season.

However as we close in on the halfway mark of this CFL campaign, even the most optimistic of Rider Priders has to be concerned over the state of this team as they seemed to have collapsed into a tailspin.

Sunday’s 24-5 loss in BC was the club’s fourth consecutive defeat and the team appears to be reeling.

How couldn’t they be? The club’s last win was in Week 3, a 23-20 triumph over the Lions in Regina.

Yet, remarkably, had the Riders won in B.C. on Sunday, they would have held top spot in the West with the season series advantage over the Lions.

Instead they are 3-4, tied with

RIDER INSIDER ROD PEDERSEN

Voice of the Riders Roughriders Radio Network

Calgary for third, and are technically in fourth in the division as the Stamps hold the tiebreaker.

So, all is not lost and head coach Corey Chamblin continues to be positive despite the slide.

“I looked at it as we came out aggressive and stayed aggressive with play-calling,” Chamblin said after the match. “They (B.C.) are a veteran group and they just came out stronger. We’ll grow into that role.

“Once again this team fought to the end. The biggest thing is there are couple of units who played better than they have in the past. We

need all three phases playing together and I know we’ll get there.”

As is usually the case, a handful of plays dictated the outcome and some seriously questionable calls took the Riders out at the knees at critical times.

We can safely say the Lions are the CFL’s best team and the Riders went toe-to-toe with them for most of the contest until a 55-yard touchdown

by Arland Bruce broke their back in the last minute of the third quarter.

“The game was in reach near the end but a few plays late broke it open,” Chamblin explained. “It was close for a

long time at 7-3.”

So what ails this team right now? That’s tough to say. The offence certainly didn’t seem to be a problem as they averaged close to 30 points per game in the first six games but their one measly field goal in Vancouver easily stood out as their worst offensive showing of the season.

Defensively, they relentlessly pounded Lions quarterback Travis Lulay but the reigning league MVP kept getting back up for more. He’s just that good, and that tough.

In the final analysis all that matters is that there are 11 games left to play and there’s still plenty of time to turn things around. They have held the lead in every one of their first seven games and it’s clear this team is as good as any in the league.

However now is the time to find answers to the questions because they can’t afford to squander divisional games any longer.

Horoscopes

CAPRICORN Dare to dream, Capricorn. This week is all about making things happen. Little goals, big goals—you will see them all through with finesse.

AQUARIUS Concerns mount over a senior’s situation. Be careful how you approach them, Aquarius. One wrong word could send everything into a tailspin.

PISCES No more complaints, Pisces. Time to pull up your bootstraps and get crackin’. News from home lightens the load and reveals what really matters.

ARIES Heads up, Aries. Someone you least expect has big plans in the works, and you’ll play a part in making them happen. The foundation is set at work.

TAURUS Just when you thought things couldn’t get any better, they do. Small windfalls and creative bursts give you the freedom to do more. Enjoy, Taurus.

GEMINI Full steam ahead, Gemini. You are getting bogged down in the details and progress is seriously lagging. An offer is too good, way too good, to refuse.

CANCER Romance hits an all-time high with a trip someplace special. A project is given the go-ahead and the real work begins. Gather the troops, Cancer.

LEO Playing favorites never works, Leo. You’re far better off being impartial and allocating the job to someone with the skills to complete it.

VIRGO Requests multiply by the minute, and you have no choice but to learn the word no. Relax, Virgo. Those that you turn down will understand.

LIBRA You’re not one to get your feathers ruffled, but a young friend takes it a bit too far and you must say what’s on your mind, Libra. A chance encounter proves lucrative.

SCORPIO Career goals move front and center this week, Scorpio, and you put together a plan. Travel is on the agenda, and it starts sooner than expected.

SAGITTARIUS Green efforts pay off big time, providing impetus for more radical moves. An old friend stops by for an insightful chat. Who knew, Sagittarius?

Barn Playhouse ends summer with “Every Little Crook and Nanny” The Barn Playhouse, Saskatchewan Tourism’s Small Business of the Year, is pleased to announce our 2nd Show of the Season; “Every Little Crook and Nanny”, a zany “who-done-it”. It begins with a loveable nanny who runs a boarding house. Then adds two bumbling crooks that are planning to rob the bank on the corner. With twists and turns and doors slamming this fast paced comedy is hilariously funny. The show runs August 22-26 & August 29-Sept 2. The yard event opens at 5:30 pm and the show begins at 7:30 pm. On Sundays the yard opens at noon and the show begins at 2:00 pm. Tickets are available by calling 239-4600. Pictured above: Back row – Bob Brophy, Wil Peters.

moving to a separate event is that the town of Radisson will be celebrating its 100th anniversary on August 10 and 11, 2013, the same weekend as its annual Agricultural Fair, and having all three events coincide would simply be too much for a limited number of organizers to handle, he said. “The 100th anniversary will be a big event and a big draw,” he stated. “Our plans are coming together well, and the excitement is building.”
