Youth critically injured in collision south of Langham Four people were injured, one critically, in a two-vehicle crash on a grid road south of Langham last Friday, November 16.

Langham Fire Depatment and First Responders used the Jaws of Life to extricate three young people from one of the vehicles.

According to Warman RCMP, the collision occured at about 4:45 p.m. Police were called to the scene of a two vehicle collision approximately two kilometers south of the Town of Langham.

Warman RCMP Sergeant Warren Gherasim said a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado collided with a 2002 VW Beetle at the intersection of Township road 390 and Range Road 3073, near Langham.

“The weather was clear and road conditions were good at the time of the collision,” he said. “Fire and EMS

Elderly couple injured in motor vehicle crash

An elderly couple miraculously survived a motor vehicle crash on Highway 11 just outside Warman the morning of Thursday, November 15.

According to Warman RCMP Sergeant Warren Gherasim, police, Warman Fire Department and MD Ambulance were called to the scene of a two vehicle collision on Highway 11 at the north access to the City of Warman.

Gherasim said an eastbound Ford F-150 pick-up truck was struck by a southbound Ford Taurus.

“The two occupants of the Taurus were trapped in their vehicle and had to be extricated by Warman Fire Department personnel,” said Gherasim.

“The two people, an 82 year old man and his wife, were transported to hospital with serious, but non-life threatening, injuries.”

Witnesses at the scene observed the pick-up truck pull away from a stop sign and attempt to cross the highway when the Taurus collided with the truck. The driver of the truck, a 37 year old man, and his passenger did not require hospitalization.

A charge of proceeding before it is safe to do so is anticipated against the driver of the Ford truck.

SaskTel stealth pole aims to boost capacity in Warman

By TERRY PUGH

S

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

askTel wants to install a 25 meter (82 foot) wireless cell phone tower in a residential neighbourhood on Main Street in Warman.

WEBSITE EXCLUSIVE

Get stories like this plus more photos before anyone else! Breaking news as it happens online for free at: www.ccgazette.ca

The structure, known as a “stealth pole,” would replace an existing tower of similar height, and would boost capacity and coverage for the SaskTel wireless network in the community.

But members of Warman City Council aren’t convinced the company is going about things the right way. A resolution to approve a request by SaskTel to install the stealth pole was overwhelmingly defeated by councilors at a meeting on Tuesday,

November 12.

SaskTel does not require approval from Warman City Council to put up the tower, so the decision by council will not stop the process. However, it does signify council’s unhappiness with the lack of consultation by the company.

BOOSTING COVERAGE The stealth pole is one of several structures that SaskTel is installing province-wide.

The white, fully-enclosed tower is designed to boost the 4G wireless system’s coverage area and load capacity in response to increasing demand, according to SaskTel. Stealth towers, monopooles, antennae on wooden poles and a variety of other structures are being installed across the province by SaskTel as part of its infrastructure upgrade plan.

Don McMorris, the Minister Responsible for SaskTel, said in a news release in mid-October that the crown corporation is “commit-

ted to building and powering the largest, fastest and most complete wireless network in the province.”

So far in 2012, 33 new towers, 10 antenna systems and 2 new rooftop antennas were installed by SaskTel across Saskatchewan. There are plans to complete an additional 60 infrastructure improvement projects by the end of 2012. The cost of the upgrades was originally pegged at $70 million but is now estimated at approximately $100 million.

SaskTel officials point out that demand for stronger signals, higher capacity and increased coverage has increased exponentially with the popularity of smartphones and tablets. A smartphone uses about 35 times more network capacity than a conventional cellphone, and a tablet uses as much network capacity as 120 conventional phones. Over half of all wireless users are now using smartphones.

In addition, a new LTE network is set to be launched by SaskTel in a

matter of weeks, further adding to the demand for more towers.

Earlier this year, the first stealth pole was erected in Saskatoon at the Preston Crossing shopping complex.

Several other stealth poles are being installed in other locations throughout Saskatoon, Regina and other communities across the province.

But while people want more capacity, there is resistance to the proliferation of more towers.

New stealth towers erected in Saskatoon have prompted complaints by some residents in the affected residential neighbourhoods.

WARMAN TOWER The request to install the stealth tower in Warman was contained in a letter to Warman City Council dated October 23 from Ron Kaminski, SaskTel’s Coprporate Services Manager for Real Estate. In his letter, Kaminski states the Main Street location is the most “desirable” because the crown corporation cur-

rently already has a building on the site that houses its existing facilities.

Therefore, he notes, no additional underground cables would be required.

There is an existing 21.336 meter (70 foot) wireless tower at that location, which is slightly shorter than the proposed stealth tower.

While Kaminski stated in the letter that a “public consultation process” would be forthcoming for landowners within a 75 meter radius of the proposed tower, and that a notice would be placed in the local newspaper, that may not necessarily happen.

Brad Toth, Director of Planning for the City of Warman, told council at the November 12 meeting that SaskTel now says it is not obliged to consult with landowners in the neighbourhood.

SLOW DOWN!

Traffic routinely exceeds the 40 km/hr legal speed limit along the section of Centennial Boulevard near Greenview Estates condominium in Warman, according to residents of the building. They say there needs to be additional signage to slow the traffic, and make drivers aware of the crosswalk.

Many pedestrians use the crosswalk because the Legends Centre and the R.J. Gidluck Park are across the street from the condominium.

Condo association urges action on Centennial Blvd traffic concerns

S

ooner or later, somebody’s going to get seriously injured - or worse - crossing Centennial Boulevard near Greenview Estates condominium unless additional signage is installed and enforcement is beefed up.

That was the message residents of Greenview Estates Condominium Association took to the Warman City Council meeting on Monday, November 12.

Larry Stewart, President of the condo residents group, told councilors that over the past year, there have been many close calls along that stretch of Centennial Boulevard, which is wider and has a concrete centre median at that point. Stewart said most drivers tend to accelerate as they head northbound.

“Someone could get killed if we don’t get crosswalk signs up there soon,” said Stewart.

“The walkway is well-used.

But the traffic coming from the south is a big concern, because once they make that curve they speed up to 80 or 90 kilometers an hour. They don’t stop, and they don’t even slow down for people crossing the meridian.”

Stewart said the residents are asking for crosswalk signs and speed zone signs reminding motorists that the speed limit is 40 kilometers per hour.

“There is a 40 km/hour sign along the stretch of Centennial Boulevard just south of us, but people tend to think that speed zone ends when they get to our area,” said Stewart.

Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence agreed additional signage would help remind motorists that the 40 km/ hr speed limit applies to all streets within the city limits. “That will likely happen in the very near future,” she said.

Ivan Gabrysh, Chief Administrative Officer for the CIty of Warman, noted there is additional roadwork that needs to be completed in that area, not just on Centennial Boulevard but also on the extension of Clubhouse Boulevard north of the Legends Centre. Once the roadwork is completed next spring, additional signage and street lamps will be installed.

“The budget for 2013 includes plans for widening Centennial Boulevard south of Greenview Estates as far as 2nd Street, across from the city reservoir,” said Gabrysh, adding the removal of the slight curve, combined with highly-visible speed zone and crosswalk signs and street

mer to prevent vehicles from using the alley to access a linear park, but that will be removed to prevent injuries to snowmobilers using that route to leave the city limits.

The suggestion for “No Parking” signs was referred to the city’s Transportation Committee for further study, and a recommendation is expected at the next council meeting.

Included in the more than 70 changes: salons, spas and movie theatres will be eligible for special use liquor permits, restaurants will be able to offer Bring Your Own Wine (BYOW) service to customers, eligibility for off-sale endorsements will be expanded; and increased flexibility for golf courses and sports stadiums.

In 2010, a governmentwide review of red tape was initiated. The province’s alcohol regulations were the first to go through this process.

The review of liquor regulations included feedback from

stakeholders and a detailed review by Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA).

Some of the changes will require legislative and regulatory amendments while others will occur through SLGA policy changes. The necessary legislative amendments are expected to be introduced during the current fall legislative session and are expected to be passed in the spring along with necessary regulatory amendments. SLGA’s policy changes will occur in the coming months. All liquor permittees will be notified of the various changes.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2012 • PG. 6

Co-operation still works in politics In this age of partisanship at all costs, the spirit of political co-operation and compromise is something that seems to have fallen out of favour in political discussion.

We’ve heard a little more about it south of the border since U.S. President Barack Obama’s re-election. With a looming debt crisis and the political reality that extremist in the Republican Party did not do it any favours at polls, American politicians have been talking a lot more about what they call bipartisanship approach.

But with the deep divisions in today’s American politics, any sense of co-operation is likely to be shortlived.

Here in Canada where we once prided ourselves as being a nation of consensus,

there has been little co-operation on the federal scene.

The warfare between the Liberals and the then-minority Conservatives in the last Parliament was positively tribal. And it’s likely worsened since Prime Minster Stephen Harper’s Conservatives majority government that’s been eager to ram through changes in huge omnibus bills.

Even here in co-operative-minded Saskatchewan, one can find two or three cases of mindless and stubborn feuding for every example of reasonability.

For example, Premier Brad Wall deserves credit for at least exploring a Heritage Fund as promoted by the NDP in last year’s election. But such rare incidents of consensus have been overshadowed by the massive la-

MURRAY MANDRYK

Provincial Politics

bour law changes and an irrational refusal to consider that the elimination of the Film Tax Credit might have been an economic error.

It leaves one with overall impression that compromise is something that doesn’t happen much at the Saskatchewan Legislature. The deep political divisions are a reality in province where there seems to be a lot of distance on the political spectrum between the NDP and the Saskatchewan Party.

However, there have been a couple occasions of late, the Sask. Party government and the NDP Opposition have

seemed to be able to find common ground on a couple of rather important issues.

The first is in regard to greater protection of nightshift retail workers–a private member’s bill called Jimmy’s Law, tirelessly promoted for a year now by NDP labour critic David Forbes.

In honour of Yorkton gas attendant Jimmy Wiebe who was shot to death 18 months in a robbery, Forbes promoted a series of security measures including requiring employers to have two people on during such shifts.

Labour Minister Don Morgan rejected that aspect of the proposed law as too onerous on small businesses. However, he did adopt Forbes’s suggestions for increased video surveillance, minimal cash on hand and employees wearing lanyards

with panic buttons.

Again, it wasn’t everything the NDP wanted, but it was a case of both sides demonstrating a lot of wisdom and compromise.

This is how things should work in government.

Similarly, a change to government policy that will result in an online registry of older public buildings with asbestos is another example of government somewhat listening to a good Opposition idea.

NDP MLA Cam Broten pushed for a mandatory requirement that all school divisions and health regions legally provide this information on asbestos. This was the notion advocated by former building inspector Howard Willems, who died Friday of asbestos-related cancer.

Morgan’s argument, however, is that many school divisions and health regions can’t possibly know what’s in their older buildings. For that reason, it is better to have an online guideline and for anyone involved in renovation or demolition of such older buildings to assume asbestos insulation is a possibility.

One suspects that the government may be little too worried about lawsuits and costs of compliance.

That said, we are better off to have some level of awareness of asbestos than none at all. At the very least, it’s a good first step.

And such positive change only happen when politicians actually listen to each and decide to co-operate.

‘Person to Person’ penitentiary funding cut bad idea Basic money-management EDITOR’S NOTE: The following was a letter submitted by Harry Martens of Osler, SK on behalf of Dale Schiele, to the Honourable Minister of Public Safety, Vic Toews, to bring awareness to the discontinuation of the ‘Person to Person’ program at the Saskatchewan Penitentiary.

Dear Mr. Toews, I am the Director of a prisoner visitation program, “Person to Person” (P2P), at the Saskatchewan penitentiary in Prince Albert. P2P, initiated in 1974, is the longest running program at the penitentiary and involves the most volunteers from many locations throughout Saskatchewan. In 2006 an evaluation of P2P was conducted by “Resolve” from the University of Saskatchewan. 100 major stakeholders (penitentiary staff, inmates, and visitors) provided high affirmation, one of the highest ever received, according to the researchers. For the past 38 years, thousands of offenders and volunteers have been positively impacted by P2P, and staff has claimed that the penitentiary is a safer place because of P2P. P2P is funded by Mennonite Church Saskatchewan and Correction Services Canada (CSC).

Yesterday (October 18, 2012) I received a devastating phone call from the warden of the penitentiary, informing me that the contract P2P has had with CSC for over 25 years will be terminated April 1, 2013. I and the members of the P2P Steering Committee were shocked at this

Gazette CLARK S CROSSING

decision and angry that you would cut a program that has had such a huge impact on creating “public safety”. This is a program that utilizes community members, donating thousands of hours each year, to work with high risk released sex offenders so that there are “no more victims”.

Community engagement is listed as one of the primary goals of CSC and is part of its Mission Statement. You

have cut a program that involves numerous community volunteers (Community Engagement) that provide safer communities for our children and grandchildren (Public Safety). I believe the result of these decisions is to the detriment of the office you serve as Minister of Public Safety.

The mandate of your government has been to “get tough on crime”. Getting tough on crime is what P2P

Gov’t should make ruling on splitting RM Two diverse segments make up the RM of Corman Park. The southern portion of the RM is a highly populated area consisting of concentrated acreage developments and higher populated hamlets etc., while the north and west portion is more agriculture based and therefore less populated. Even the elected councillors have different priorities which often results in conflict.

The past petition (instigated by the southern portion of the RM) to remove three councillors from the north and west was an underhanded attempt to give the southern group more control and left the northern area feeling ‘snubbed’. This resulted in the northern and western area desiring to join with various other RM’s which adjoin the RM of Corman Park.

In an attempt to hold at least part of the RM together, the northern and western areas agreed to request the RM be carved out using the South Saskatchewan River as a

boundary.

When municipal officials were consulted as to the guide lines regarding a change in the boundary of the RM to include the area west of the South Saskatchewan River, they confirmed that a petition carrying the names of 50% plus 1 would be sufficient to carve out a new RM. The petition was circulated. The guidelines were strictly enforced to ensure the process was totally legal. Consequently the petition was signed by 50% plus of the ratepayers in the

GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS

430D Central Street P.O. Box 1419, Warman, SK S0K 4S0

northern and western portion of the RM. All names and addresses were verified and the petition submitted to the appropriate Government department.

All criteria for the carving out have been dealt with.

Participating ratepayers are becoming impatient with our Government officials in their unexplained delay to conform to the wishes of the majority of ratepayers. Our hope is that the department of municipal affairs would act on this petition immediately.

skills key to personal finances

Canada’s second Financial Literacy Month is now in full swing. With the holiday shopping season coming up soon, there’s no better time to take advantage of the many events being held to teach the basic skills of managing personal finances.

Throughout November, community groups, colleges, schools, employers and agencies of every level of government are hosting seminars, workshops and other types of training sessions on topics such as making a budget you can live within, teaching your kids about money, saving for a down payment on a home, retirement or your children’s education or paying down debt. You can find all the information about dates, times and places on the website of the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) at itpaystoknow.gc.ca/flm.

Financial literacy is more important for Canadians now than ever before. Being able to manage your personal finances is an essential life skill today, right up there with mastering the ABCs and learning to tie shoelaces. People without the knowledge and skills to manage their own personal finances often make poor financial choices, such as carrying a credit card balance every month. For Canadians who are not saving enough to live on after retirement, or those facing mortgage payments or student loans that squeeze their budgets, improved financial literacy can make a big difference in their lives.

Because financially literate people understand how the financial system works, how to manage their money and how to make choices that best suit their needs and income, they’re able to make responsible financial decisions. People who develop their financial management skills have more self-confidence, better understand financial products and services and enjoy long-term financial well-being.

FCAC has provided Canadian consumers with objective information about financial products and services since 2001.

We’ve partnered with community groups, volunteer organizations, educational institutions and other government agencies to bring information, tools and educational programs about money matters to Canadians from coast to coast to coast.

Take the opportunity to check out our Financial Literacy Month Calendar of Events at itpaystoknow.gc.ca/flm, see what’s happening in your area, and learn how to take charge of your financial life!

Country superstar kicks off nation-wide tour with concert in Warman

By TERRY PUGH

C

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

anadian country superstar George Canyon made a surprise appearance in Warman on Friday, November 16, playing an accoustic concert at a local church in support of Compassion Canada, an evangelical Christian charity that works to help children in the third world.

The concert Friday night at the Awakening Church in Warman was an intimate, low-key event aimed at raising funds for the charity. The concert came about as a result of a family friendship between Canyon and the pastor of the church, Kendall Shram.

Shram, who was also recently re-elected as a member of Warman City Council, has known Canyon for several years. Shram’s sister-inlaw’s family live in southern Alberta, not far from Canyon’s ranch.

Canyon was preparing to kick off his cross-Canada tour in support of his latest album, entitled Classics II – a collection of solid-gold country and western hits from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s.

Canyon’s first sold-out concert was held Sunday, November 18 at the Dakota Dunes Casino just outside Saskatoon. He and his band used the Awakening Church hall in Warman to rehearse the show prior to the concert.

While in Warman, Canyon took the opportunity to perform a concert with fellow musician, Graham Sharkey, at the Awakening Church in support of Compassion Canada.

It’s a cause that’s close to his heart, and he said it’s a side of him that he hopes more people become aware of.

“I have very strong Christian beliefs and I’ve devoted my life to my family, my music and my faith,” said Canyon in an interview just prior to the accoustic concert in Warman. “I play country music for a living, but I also do as much as I can to promote Christian values. My partner in playing Christian music is Graham Sharkey. We started doing this two years ago, and next year we’ll have a worship record coming out.”

Canyon said he and Sharkey have been doing concerts at churches across the country in support of Compassion Canada.

“We do some of my country songs that cross over, and we also play some worship songs,” said Canyon. “But it’s not all about the songs. I find that the big thing for me is testimony. I talk about my faith and that’s really what it’s all

George Canyon (right) and Graham Sharkey perform an accoustic concert at the Awakening Church in Warman on Friday, November 16. The two musicians will be releasing a new album of religioous music next year. The concert was aimed at raising funds for Compassion Canada, a Christian charity. Canyon kicked off a country-wide tour in support of his new album of classic country songs (inset) , on Sunday at the Dakota Dunes Casino.

about.”

Graham Sharkey said he was introduced to Canyon through a mutual friend.

“I did a record, and George’s piano player was one of the session musicians on that album,” said Sharkey. “We were talking about our passion for Christiani-

ty and he said: “I have a guy you should meet.’ So he brought me out to George’s ranch and we hit it off right from the beginning. It’s great doing these concerts, because we not only get to do great music, but it’s also an opportunity to change the world, one kid at a time.”

Kendall Shram said the concert

in Warman was arranged “kind of at the last minute.”

“George was going through all his engagements, and he’s always wanted to pay a visit to Warman and see the community, so he was the one who contacted me and asked if he could do a concert at the church,” said Shram. “He’s been doing all this good work for Compassion Canada, because it’s a cause that’s close to his heart. Hopefully he’ll be able to come back and do it again some time. We’d love to have him back.”

Canyon’s humanitarian work also extends to secular causes, including the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). He was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the age of 14, and has been living with the disease ever since. Last year, he was appointed the National Spokesperson for the JDRF. Canyon said he’s looking forward to promoting his new CD. His first volume of country classics, released in 2008, was a certified gold album. This new record gives him a chance to pay additional homage to country stars of years gone by.

“The fans really embraced the first album of classics,” said Canyon. “That tells me they want more of those songs, which really are

timeless.”

The album includes songs made famous by Merle Haggard, Roger Miller, Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Glen Campbell and others.

Canyon said he had to trim his original list of 50 songs down to 15 for the album.

“There are songs on the cutting room floor that I wish we would have had room for on this record,” he said. “But maybe that means we’ll be able to bring out Volume 3 some time in the future.”

The concert tour features a backdrop made to resemble the Grand Ole Opry stage, a mecca for country music fans in Nashville.

“We play across western Canada and Ontario until Christmas, and then we take a break, but we’re back on the road after Christmas with the rest of the tour,” said Canyon. “It gets harder touring the older I get, because I don’t like being away from my family and my home, but I really do love getting out and meeting the fans and playing live shows.”

The new album and list of tour dates can be seen online at www. georgecanyon.com . The website for Compassion Canada is www.compassion.ca .

A City of Martensville public works employee dumps snow into a waiting truck on Wednesday, November 14 following a major snowfall.

A proposal to add an additional $123,800 to the city’s budget would allow city crews to use the municipally-owned loaders to greater efficiency by increasing the number of privately-contracted trucks hauling snow.

Snow-clearing on track for all areas of Warman

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca

proposal by the Martensville Public Works department to hire additional private trucking contractors would boost the city’s capacity for clearing snow from residential streets.

The proposal, which went before Martensville City Council’s meeting on Tuesday, November 20, for a decision, calls for an allocation of $123,800 toward snow removal. The additional funds would allow the public works department to contract four private trucks over a 40-day period this winter to haul snow.

The additional funds would enable city crews to ensure all streets in Martensville, including those in residential neighbourhoods, are cleared at least twice every winter. Currently, the crews are able to clear all the residential streets once each winter.

There are two big challenges when it comes to snow removal in Martensville, according to Mike Grosh, Director of Public Works for the City of Martensville.

In an interview on Wednesday, November 14, Grosh said the first challenge is the increase in kilometers of streets that need to be cleared as the city crews try to keep pace with the municpality’s phenomenal growth over the past five years. Martensville is the second-fastest growing urban centre in Canada, according to the 2011 federal census.

The second challenge is physically loading the snow cleared from the streets and hauling it out of the city.

“We have two graders and two loaders,” explained Grosh. “We also have four tandem-axle trucks. With the graders and loaders, we have the capacity to clear the streets and pick up the snow, but the problem we have is we’re short of trucks to carry the snow out of town.”

Grosh said boosting the city’s hauling capacity is essential. He noted it currently takes between one and two

O

ver the past five years, Warman has almost doubled in size geographically, and that means there are twice as many streets to be cleared every time it snows.

“It’s a challenge, definitely, but so far we’ve been able to stay on top of it,” said Randy Fehr, Director of Public Works for the City of Warman. “Up till this point, we clean every street after every snowfall.”

The primary arterial and connector streets are done immediately - and continue to be redone periodically if snow continues to fall throughout the day - to ensure commuter traffic is able to access the highways, said Fehr. After those are taken care of, then crews begin tackling the residential areas and side streets.

“We don’t offically call them Priority 1, 2 or 3 roads,” said Fehr. “But unoffically we do have a system where we start early on the main thoroughfares and then move on to other streets during the regular working days. Up till now, we’ve been able to handle the job with the equipment and personnel we have.”

Fehr said the city currently has a staff of seven public works employees. They operate 2 graders that are fitted with special 12-foot blades to handle snow removal. Sidewalks are cleared using a skid-steer, and back alleys are maintained with a backhoe. There are also several 3-ton single-axle trucks used for hauling snow in the winter and topsoil and gravel in summer.

Fehr said normally snow is graded to the side of the road and piled at strategic locations.

He said the storm sewer system in Warman is able to handle the melting snow, but maintenance workers are kept busy during mild weather and in the spring ensuring the storm drains are free of ice so meltwater does not remain on the streets.

As the city has grown, the size of the public works department has kept pace.

Martensville Royals hand out the hardware at awards night

By HILARY KLASSEN

W

orthy of a 15 minute highlight video, that’s how well the coaches of the Martensville Royals felt their team had done over the 2012 football season.

And what a video it was, filling up the gigantic screen in the Martensville High School Gym with memorable plays by the Royals.

It was the culmination of an awards night when the Royals coaches handed out hardware to their brightest and best. The Royals’ players and coaches, with their families, friends and supporters got together one last time on Friday, November 16.

Brett Lambdon, defensive coordinator for the past two years, started off by mentioning several highlights from the season. The goal was to be the #1 defense in the league and in the end they were satisfied to come out #2. The Royals are also proud of holding Delisle down to their lowest point total in two years, prior to their loss to Melfort.

Lambdon brought laughter as he concluded, “And we loved laying it down on Warman.”

RAZZLE DAZZLE AWARDS Having fun was an important goal as well, and with that in mind, Lambdon announced the first annual Martensville Razzie Awards.

This move was inspired by the ESPN annual sports joke awards. These awards included the “Quit Picking Your Scabs Award,” the “Woodsman Award” for most chopped blocks received (a brand new toy axe was given), a Swag Award, and the “PMS Award for Most Cramps.” Lambdon added, “you don’t want to win this one.” The crowd clearly enjoyed these joke awards given at players’ expense.

Getting serious, the coaches took pride in naming their award winners. Awards were decided by the captains and coaches who were given a sheet to fill out to cast their vote. If the vote was unclear the coaches had further deliberations to choose their award recipients as follows: Special Teams Player of the Year: Brayden Heck Most inspirational player: Morgan Avery Most Dedicated Player: Brady Thompson Most Improved Player of the Year: Florian Neufeld Lineman of the Year: Matt Linnick

Rookie of the Year: Peter Kuxhaus Defensive Player of the Year: Morgan Upton Offensive Player of the Year: Spencer Fitch Most Valuable Player: Morgan Upton UPTON MAKES IMPACT Morgan Upton was a dual winner, receiving both the Defensive Player of the Year and MVP. Presenters from Exit Realty said, “The MVP award is not just about how they play but how they represent themselves and their team in the community. It kind of encompasses all the awards, it’s somebody who’s a leader, somebody who’s inspirational, who’s dedicated, was one of our valuable players offensively, defensively and all over the field.” Lambdon addd, “It was funny hearing Delisle coaches say, stop number 18,” Morgan Upton.

OFFENSIVE IMPROVEMENT The Royals offensive coach noted that the team had made great strides this year over what they’d done the year previous. “This is the first time where I could say that we were actually running plays successfully and able to put points on the board, which won us some games. This was in large part due to our improvement on the O-line with Morgan Upton and Matt Linnick and our fine cast of rookies.” He added that “Shayne Hayward did a great job as quarterback and the guys took the time to learn their plays and it paid off.”

GRADUATING PLAYERS A couple of graduating Royals paid tribute and made presentations to their coaches.

“You guys were just as much friends as you were coaches.

That’s what made this thing so unreal.” Of head coach Evanisky they commented, “It’s just been an absolute pleasure to have him as our head coach and it’s been a huge impact on us all.” They added, “The atmosphere this year was just incredible. It was like having a second family. None of it would have been possible without everybody sitting here.”

Executive Committee member, Janine Hayward presented coach Brett Lambdon and his wife with a late wedding gift of a night out. Lambdon was married in September and his commitment to the team while working around family commitments was appreciated.

Evanisky thanked Della Muench for the meal which was prepared by her Commercial Cooking Class. He apologized for the length of the highlight video, but said it could have been longer. He also mentioned that it was for sale, so the Royals may enjoy more than 15 minutes of fame.

Coach Evanisky observed that, “The Martensville Royals Football Team concluded their fifth season with many highs and lows, but we are optimistic about future seasons as we continue to move in the right direction. I hope this year will help everyone understand the hard work and commitment which is needed to improve and be a playoff contender for next year.”

he Warman Wildcats finally shook the monkey off theirbacks last Friday, downing the Tisdale Ramblers 6-4 to pick up their first win of the Fort Carlton Hockey League (FCHL) season.

Shayden Regush led the scoring for the Wildcats, recording a hat trick, including the tying goal and an insurance marker in a strong third period effort. Doug Harms, Cory Perkin and Brett Hesterman also scored for the Wildcats, while Rob Holoien, Ben Kelley, Cody Felstad, and Rhett Fairburn replied for the Ramblers.

“It’s exciting to get that first win,” confirmed Wildcats coach Stuart Regush.

“In the first three games we struggled offensively and defensively. But the guys pulled together tonight and came out and did what they were supposed to do.”

Regush said the key to the Wildcats’ effort was to keep things simple and play a straightforward brand of hockey. “We’re not a team with star power,” Regush stated. “We’re a team of grinders, and we have to keep working for 60 minutes to stay competitive.”

In their first three losses of the season, the Wildcats were continually trying to dig themselves out of a hole as they allowed their opponents to get an early lead and set the pace of the game.

That almost happened again, as the Ramblers drew first blood before the contest was two minutes old.

“I told the guys between periods we have to stop playing from a hole,” said Regush. “We have to figure out a way to get some goals, and once we get up by a goal, then we can play smart, defensive hockey and shut them down.

But we needed that lead to get some momentum on our side.”

he Dalmeny Fury put together back-to-back victories last weekend, downing the Rosthern Wheat Kings 8-6 at home on Friday, November 16, and beating the host Warman Wildcats 7-3 at the Legends Centre in Warman on Saturday, November 17.

Fury goaltender Kyle Yarskie was solid between the pipes for Dalmeny, allowing only three goals on 41 shots in the game against Warman, while teammate Brody Foster led the Fury’s offense with 3 goals. Kolten Fyfe, Justin D’Entrement, Dean Salzl, and Justin Edin added singles enroute to the victory.

Warman goal-scorers were Dan Lind, Kazz Ito and Doug Harms. Warman goalie Brennan Kirkness faced 41 shots in the contest.

For Dalmeny coach Clayton Chappell, the winning formula is pretty simple.

“It’s not a complicated game,” said Chappell following the game on Saturday.

“It’s actually pretty simple.

The key is to play within the system. You play defensive hockey and you take advantage of your scoring opportunities. The guys worked hard and they stuck to the game plan. We had quite a few chances to score, and we capitalized on enough of them to get the win. But their goalie actually played pretty well.”

Chappell, who played in the Western Hockey League with the Saskatoon Blades and New Westminster Bruins in the 1980s, and later with the University of Saskatchewan Huskies hockey squad, has plenty of experience in the game. Taking that on-ice experience be-

hind the bench is just a natural progression, he noted.

“There are plays that work well in certain situations, and I try to teach that stuff to the guys and then it’s up to them to apply it on the ice,” he said. “If they do it right, then it’s easy. But if they don’t do what they’re told, then it becomes something we have to work on in practice.”

Chappell said the win against Rosthern at home gave the Dalmeny squad a shot of confidence coming into the game against Warman. “When you’re playing the top teams you have to play defensively and you have to play smart,” he said. “If you don’t, it will cost you.”

The Fury are gearing up for their next home game on Friday, November 23, when they host the Hague Royals.

Game time is 8:30 p.m.

cats finally got on track in the final 20 minutes, scoring 3 unanswered goals. Shayden Regeush got the tying marker five minutes in, followed a minute later by Doug Harms’ winning goal. Regush added the insurance marker with two minutes left in the game.

Stuart Regush said the turning point in the game was killing off a 5-minute major penalty in the third period after they tied the score. “That was huge,” he said. “It really sparked our bench and got everybody motivated. You could really feel the energy after that.

Regush said his team didn’t have a lot of experience protecting a lead, but they handled the situation well at a critical time.

“It wasn’t a panic situation, but it was a little scary because we were shorthanded for five minutes,” he said. “The guys were able to bear down and they kept the puck out of our end. Our goaltender, Brennan Kirkness, also played really well. He came up with some big saves and then we finally got some bounces that went our way.”

The Wildcats weren’t able to repeat the winning performance the next night, however.

The Dalmeny Fury rolled into the Legends Arena on Saturday, November 17, and skated to a convincing 7-3 win.

Dalmeny new home of Cougars 6-man high school football

By TERRY PUGH

F

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

ootball Fever is running high in the halls of Dalmeny High School as students countdown to the launch of the Dalmeny Cougars 6-man football team next fall.

The team is expected to play in the 2A division of the Saskatchewan High Schools Athletics Association league in 2013.

It’s a long, expensive process to get a football program off the ground, but it’s well worth the effort, according to Cory Lewis and Stephen Kowachuk. The two teachers at DHS will be taking on the coaching duties when the team holds its spring skills camp.

But, they’ve already put in countless hours over the past year-and-a-half laying the groundwork for what they hope will be a long-term program.

“We started to get things rolling back in September, 2011,” explained Kowachuk.

“Both Cory and I share a passion for the game of football.

We both played the game in high school and coached teams before we came here. We saw that there was a lot of potential for a team in this community, and decided to pitch the idea to the school and the students.”

The idea caught on right away, and momentum has been building as the various pieces fall into place.

“We knew the amount of work involved, but because we love the game we were more than willing to do whatever it takes,” said Kowalchuk. “The first step was to get the support of the administrative staff and the school in general, because with a big program like this, it takes many people to make it happen. It’s a big commitment.”

The school administration got onside immediately, and from there it was a matter of finding out if there was interest from the students. An initial noon-hour meeting at the school attracted between 35 and 40 kids, said Lewis.

“We had an information meeting and got a fantastic

turnout,” explained Lewis.

“We were hoping to get 20 kids out, and we had well over that.

Since then, we’ve had about 26 or 27 kids that have stuck with it and helped out with the fundraising and other activities.”

He says there are other students who are likely to get on board once the team actually starts holding practices in the spring.

Lewis, who coached a provincial championship team in Hanley, said there is great potential for a team in the community.

“We have a tremendous number of really great athletes in this school,” he said. “I’ve coached in Wilkie and Hanley, and the quality of athletes here is every bit as good,” he said. “There’s also a lot of interest in the sport, which is great because a team can be a big asset to the school and to the community.”

While both coaches have lots of experience on the field, they admit it’s been a steep learning curve when it comes to filling out grant applications and organizing fundraising activites.

“The first big project we did was cleaning the ditches on Highway 12 between Martensville and Saskatoon,” said Kowalchuk. “That was one dirty job, for sure. But we had all the kids out and it was a great team-building experience and it was also a good fundraiser.”

It costs about $28,000 for start-up costs to purchase equipment and cover operating costs for the team during its first year, noted Kowalchuk. The Town of Dalmeny is also helping out financially by allowing the team to play its games at Centennial Park Field, a town-owned facility.

“If we had to pay for the field, that would have added another $15,000 to $20,000 to the cost,” said Kowalchuk. “So that represents a huge saving for the team and shows us the community wants this to become a reality.”

While a majority of the players on the team will be starting from scratch, there are a few key players who will be bringing some valuable ex-

COUGAR POWER

Students at Dalmeny High School have been working hard both on and off the field as they prepare to launch a brand new football team next season, Among the players eager to play are (above, left to right) Dylan Sargeant, Cole McGonigal, Walker Lange, Clinton Wilson, Lane Galambos, Connor Moore, Antoine Labreque and Sarah DeSa. (Right) Coaches Stephen Kowalchuk and Cory Lewis bring their football experience to the new team. perience to the program.

Connor Moore, Liam Moore and Peter Kuxhaus are key players with the Martensville Royals 9-man football team. While they attend school in Dalmeny, there is an agreement between the schools to allow the students to play for the neighbouring community.

Antoine Lebreque is another player with experience in the Martensville Mad Dogs football team in the Kinsmen Football League.

“Those athletes are tremendous leaders,” said Kowalchuk.

Most of the team, though

will have had little or no experience with football, said Lewis. “They will need to learn the basics, and we’re excited to teach them,” he said.

“It will be a challenge to field a competitive team in the first year or two, because the other teams in the league will have had more experience.

But we’ve explained that to the kids and they’re still very gung-ho.”

He noted there are several girls who are also keen to be on the team.

Kowalchuk said the students will spend time in the classroom learning the rules

of the game, as well as the fundamentals of offense and defense, and will be out on the practice field once the snow is gone in the spring.

“It’s a cool way to bring the community and the school closer together,” said Kowalchuk. “That was my experience when I was growing up in Foam Lake. Playing a big game in front of the whole town on a beauitful September afternoon is a great memory that always stays with you throughout your life. That’s something we’re hoping these kids get a chance to experience.”

LONESOME STEVE TRIBUTE

“Lonesome Steve” Puto (left) of Hafford received a tribute from country and western bands at an event at the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans Club in Saskatoon on Saturday, November 17. Puto, who began his musical career at the age of 12 in his home community, is often referred to as a “Living Legend”. Puto no longer performs regularly because he is afflicted with Parkinson’s Disease, but he came out of retirement to do several sets at the event. Puto has promoted many charities over the years, and currently works to help raise funds for the Parkinson’s Foundation. One of the founders of the Saskatchewan Country Music Association, Puto had a weekly television program on CFQC-TV in the 1970s, and mentored many young musicians over the years. A DVD of his past performances, as well as a CD, were unveiled at the event, which featured Walter Kyliuk and Ukrainian Connection (bottom right).

Stealth pole would replace existing wireless tower in Warman

12114DX00

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3

An October 30 e-mail from Kaminski noted that because the stealth tower would be a similar height to the existing tower, Industry Canada regulations do not require a public consultation process.

However, Warman City Councilors felt the residents in the neighbourhood should be given a heads-up, and allowed an opportunity to voice their opinions.

Councilor Kendall Shram said SaskTel should notify neighbouring property owners, provide them with information on the new tower, and answer any questions they may have.

“When council is asked to approve a discretionary use for a property in city limits, we do our due diligence and notify people and solicit comments and concerns,” said Shram. “It’s a matter of communication and transparency.”

There was some uncertainty at the council meeting

A 25 meter “stealth pole” (inset) similar to the one at Preston Crossing in Saskatoon may be installed at this location on Main Street in Warman (above) to replace the existing 21.3 meter wireless tower. just how much higher the new tower would be than the existing one. Councilor Trevor Peterson said if the replacement tower is the same height, the impact on residents in the area would be minimal, but if

Warman snow removal “We have added more operators over the years, and also added to our equipment fleet,” explained Fehr.

“As the community expanded and the number of kilometers of streets increased, we’ve upgraded the type of equipment as well to keep up.”

Fehr said that prior to 2008,

weeks to clear snow completely from the arterial and collector roads after a major snowfall, as roughly a kilometer-and- a-half of roadway can be done per day.

In his report to the Martensville council meeting on November 13, Grosh said for the past couple years total snow removal has been done two to three times on arterial and collector streets, while total removal has only been done once on residential streets.

“Generally, total removal on residential streets takes approximately 40 days and starts the beginning of January,” stated Grosh in his report.

“WIth at least one snowfall after the beginning of January, arterial and collector streets are done again. This now takes us into March when the drainage ways and major flow areas have to be cleared.

“With the addition of a new loader, we now have enough equipment to do the added removal, except for the number of trucks.”

Grosh said the city may also have to look at acquiring a snowblower in the near future to keep up with the growth of the municipality.

it is substantially higher, that was a cause for concern.

Council agreed that landowners in the neighbourhood need to be aware of SaskTel’s proposal before the replacement tower is installed.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9

the municipality of Warman had just a single grader.

“We had a 1987-model machine,” he explained. “In 2008, the town purchased a new 2008-model grader, and that really boosted our capacity because it was much more userfriendly amd quicker, which made us more efficient.”

This past summer, the municipality traded in the 1987-vintage grader for a brand new 2012 machine, which also boosted efficiency, said Fehr.

“We can move a lot of snow in a hurry now,” he said. “We don’t run double-shifts because we really don’t have enough people. We currently have three grader operators, including my-

self. However, we are in the process of hiring another grader operator.”

Fehr said the budget for snow-clearing is included in the overall annual budget for public works.

“It’s a little difficult to separate it out because there are so many fixed costs that are part of the overall budget, like equipment and staff,” said Fehr. “The machinery is used year round.

It’s just fitted out for whatever job it’s used for. There would be additional fuel costs and some overtime payroll expenses if we get a lot of snow over the winter, but generally it’s all considered as part of the annual public works budget.”
