SaskPower seeks series of rate hikes Increased capacity should alleviate chronic power outages in Warman, Martensville region
month in 2015 and 2016. The average rural residential customer will see an increase of $8 per month in 2014, a monthly increase of $7 in 2015 and a monthly increase of $8 in 2016. The average farm will see their electrical bill go up by $7 per month in 2014, $10 in 2015, and $9 in 2016, according to Watson. The average urban commercial customer’s bill will rise by $36 per month in 2014, $30 per month in 2015 and $32 per month in 2016. Rural commercial customers bills will rise by $30 per month in 2014, $31 per month in 2015, and $32 per month in 2016. Watson said SaskPower’s rates compare favourably with other thermal-generation based utilities, which use natural gas and coal for producing power. “On average, our rates are 18 per cent lower than similar thermal utilities,” he said.

customers. At a news conference on Friday, October 25, SaskPower President and CEO Robert Watson said the crown-owned utility had put forward an application to the Saskatchewan Rate Review Panel (SRRP). SaskPower is seeking a 5.5 per cent rate increase effective January 1, 2014; followed by a 5 per cent increase effective January 1, 2015, and a 5 per cent increase effective January 1, 2016. For the average urban residential customer, it will mean a monthly increase of $5 in 2014, and an increase of $4 per

If the SRRP approves the multi-year increases, the application will then go to the provincial Cabinet for final approval. In the meantime, the pro-

posed rate increases will go to public meetings in Saskatoon and Regina, where residents can voice their opinions. Comments are also being accepted online, as well as by mail, email and telephone. Watson said the proposed rate increases are needed to pay for maintenance of aging infrastructure, and also to cover the cost of new capital projects. “We continue to set records for new service applications and the total amount of power needed by customers at one time,” said Watson. “This increased demand for service is expected to increase into the foreseeable future.” Watson noted the utility is also faced with the challenge of replacing aging infrastructure. “Our electrical system is 30 to 50 years old and is nearing the end of its operating life,” he said. “That is why we plan to continue investing $1 billion annually on the system in the years ahead.” He said the rate increases are needed to finance ongoing, long-term infrastructure investments aimed at keeping pace with the province’s ex-

Corman Park resident claims $14.7 million lottery prize Worme didn’t check the ticket immediately, but it wasn’t long before he heard that a ticket purchased in Saskatoon had won the Jackpot. He checked the winning numbers posted at another local lottery retailer while he was out with his son a couple of weeks after the draw. “I saw that the numbers matched, and I went to tell my son,” he recalled. “He didn’t believe me, so I insisted that he go check the numbers himself. He wrote them down on his hand, then came back and looked at the ticket. He looked at me and said, ‘It’s a bingo!’” That ticket was the only one sold across Canada to exactly match all six winning numbers
RM of Corman Park resident Donald Worme knew he had won a Lotto 6/49 Jackpot a couple of weeks after the August 31 draw, but he managed to keep the secret for a while longer. The Eagle Ridge resident has now claimed his $14,797,843 prize, putting an end to almost two months of speculation about who held the winning ticket purchased in Saskatoon. Worme bought his ticket from Fas Gas, located at the junction of Highways 5 and 41 in Saskatoon. Rather than choosing his own numbers, he opted for randomly-generated Selections, asking for five Quick Pick lines and one Extra on the $11 Lotto6/49 ticket.
drawn on August 31st: 5, 6, 24, 29, 35 and 39. “It’s very exciting,” he said, “but it takes a while to really sink in.” Worme said he waited a few more weeks to claim the prize to give himself time to make his plans and arrangements for the windfall. “I know what money can do for you, and I know what it can’t do,” he said. “I have my dreams already: I have my family, and I have everything I need.” Worme’s win is the largest lottery Jackpot prize ever won on a ticket purchased in Saskatoon, narrowly surpassing a $14.6 Million Super 7 prize won in February 2006.

Moving forward with solid plans
RM of Dundurn taking on new development while dealing with associated infrastructure challenges By KIRA OLFERT k.olfert@yahoo.ca
A population boom in the RM of Dundurn has spurred the municipality to undertake a number of projects, including better road signage, a new rural postal route system, improved roads, and a new wastewater facility. These and other issues were raised at the RM of Dundurn Annual Ratepayers meeting October 22. In attendance was Reeve Fred Wilson and councillors Terry Inch, Louis Paquette, Werner Falk, Fred Baran, and Wayne Olyniuk. The meeting also heard from community planners Joe Josza, Dana Schmalz and Robin Baxter of Regina, who are working on the RM’s new Official Community Plan (OCP) and zoning by-laws, which have not been updated since 1998.
ROAD SIGNAGE
Wilson started out the meeting with his Reeve’s Report, where he informed the large crowd that the RM was well into the process of signing the roads in the municipality based on the provincial grid system. This change was deemed necessary due to the increasing number of people moving into the municipality’s many new country residenital subdivisions. New RM maps reflecting the changes are being printed. Wilson also reported that, again due to the large number of people moving in to the area, the RM has been in contact with Canada Post to request a Rural Route system be put in place to service the subdivisions, similar to the one in Corman Park. Furthermore, Wilson went on to explain that 13 miles of new road were built in the municipality this past year, mostly financed by the subdivision developers. Wilson also outlined tentative plans to begin rebuilding Haultain Road next sum-
mer, as well as the possibility of taking over the upkeep of Tamke Road from Corman Park, with the goal of increasing the tonnage limit allowed on that road to take some of the pressure off of Haultain. He also affirmed that three new subdivisions had been approved. Wilson assured the crowd that the President of Brightenview Developments had been in his office earlier that day, and that plans for the Dundurn International Exhibition Centre are still on track, and are currently in the infrastructure design phase. Wilson added that the project would “hopefully be going full blast by spring.”
RURAL WATER UTILITY
Fred Baran reported on behalf of the Dundurn Rural Water Utility Board, saying that the board had recently completed rewriting their bylaws. Residents of the municipality can expect a zero per cent increase in water rates, in spite of SaskWater rate increases, but will start to see an approximately $1.65 Sustainability Charge added to their water bill in the next few months. The board hopes to create a six million dollar fund for future repairs needed by the utility. Baran added that the board will see a surplus this year, and that this money will also be put towards the Sustainability Fund.
WASTEWATER UTILITY
Terry Inch spoke for the Waste Water Utility Board. He noted that the new Waste Water Facility, which was partly funded by the Building Canada Fund, is almost ready for use. He also informed the crowd that recent audits by BCF and SaskWater came back 100 per cent clear.
NEW COMMUNITY CENTRE
Baran reported that the longerterm goal of a new Dundurn Community Centre (DCC), which would
house a skating rink, swimming pool, auditorium and office space, is also in the beginning planning stages. The creation of a DCC is part of the partnership with Brightenview, and the RM hopes to secure additional funding from the Federal Government’s fourteen billion dollar Building Canada Fund.
DEVELOPMENT ISSUES
Ratepayers then had a chance to voice their questions and concerns. The main concerns stemmed from the creation and building of the new developments in the RM. Some people were concerned that not enough lots per acres were being sold. The issue of water security was also raised, with people asking what their recourse was if some of the estimated 26 million gallons of water pumped in to the new developments spilled over on to their land. The question of the encroachment of trees between property lines was also approached, and the RM agreed to discuss that issue further, along with the issue of the large amounts of garbage being blown from subdivision construction sites onto residential property. Building permits issued state that the developer is required to clean up after themselves or be fined, and the RM will discuss calls to either hire or seek a volunteer full-time or part-time by-law enforcement officer.
PROPERTY TAXES
Residents of the rural subdivisions inquired as to why their taxes were proportionally higher than other RM residents, and were informed that a recent reassessment of tax rates led to a number of rate adjustments, including a new tax on agricultural residential lands that were not previously taxed. Costs of operation for the RM have increased, but Wilson predicted that tax rates would hold steady for the upcoming fiscal year.

Warman Firefighters responded to a three-vehicle collision at the intersection of Highway 11 and Wanuskewin Road on Monday. It was one of two crashes that occurred within the same hour with the other on Highway 12 at the Martensville south entrance.
Collisions tie up traffic on two major highways It was a crazy start to a new week for first responders and emergency workers and yet another headache for afternoon commuters trying to make their way home in the Martensville and Warman areas. Several people suffered minor injuries in two separate multi-vehicle collisions on Monday, October 28. The first collision occurred about 4:00 p.m. at the intersection of Highway 11 and Wanuskewin Road. Three vehicles were involved. A Kia Rio sedan and a Ford sedan both suffered extensive damage to their front ends as a result of the collision. A third vehicle, a Dodge Caravan minivan, ended up in the north ditch about 50 yards from the intersection. Three people in one vehicle were treated at the scene by Warman RCMP, Warman Fire Department First Responders, and MD Ambulance. There were no serious injuries to any of the occupants. Traffic at the intersection was forced to detour for about an hour while the cause of the collision was investigated by Warman RCMP and the scene was cleaned up. All three vehicles were towed
from the scene. The second collision occurred about 15 minutes later at the junction of Highway 12 and the south entrance into Martensville. In that collision, a Ford F150 truck attempted to cross the highway westbound and was struck by a northbound Honda Civic. Warman RCMP at the scene believed the driver of the truck entered the intersection before it was safe and added charges may be laid. The lone occupants of both vehicles were not hurt and were examined by Martensville First Responders before being released. An ambulance dispatched by MD Ambulance was stuck in traffic on Idylwyld Drive at the time but was turned back after being advised it was not required.The Martensville Fire Department also responded to the scene to help clean up the intersection. Traffic was diverted off Highway 12 northbound for about an hour. Collisions are not uncommon at either intersection and are often caused by vehicles trying to cross in front of oncoming traffic. The weather at the time of both collisions was clear and the roads were in good condition.

Rebuilt Dalmeny Acess Road officially opens A 13.5 km stretch of the Dalmeny Access Road is once again fully open to traffic following an extensive $20.3-million improvement. “Commuter traffic in the area will have a wider, stronger and smoother road,” Central Services Ministerand Martensville MLA Nancy Heppner said on behalf of Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris. “The new and improved access road demonstrates how communities such as Dalmeny are benefitting from the Province’s Plan for Growth.” The existing thin membrane surface (TMS) access road has been upgraded to a structural pavement. Safety improvements have also been made to the 13.5 km stretch, including widening the road and building a new, realigned intersection, which will improve sightlines when entering the busy Highway 16. “This is the greatest thing that has happened to our community in years and years,” Dalmeny Mayor Allan Earle said. “The government has fulfilled a promise, and we will see an increase in both commercial and residential sales. There isn’t a sad soul in the community today.” A second layer of pavement will be added to some of the

Crews were laying down the final touches at the entrance to Dalmeny last week road in the spring, and cleanup and ditch work will continue until the ground freezes. Once contractors vacate the area for the winter months, the speed limit between the junctions of Highway 16 and 305 to the north will be posted at 100 km/h. Until then motorists are reminded to slow to 60 km/h in work zones and watch for workers. The government has invested a record $3.7 billion in transportation infrastructure since 2008.

Prairie Spirit students encouraged to make a difference Submitted by
BRENDA ERICKSON
Prairie Spirit School Division
Over 500 Grade 8, 9 and 10 students from Prairie Spirit schools met on October 10 at Lakeview Church in Saskatoon for a Prairie Spirit Student Forum. The Prairie Spirit Student Forum is designed to give students a chance to provide their views on their education experience and to give their perspectives and insights. Students who participate in the Student Forum are encouraged to become leaders in their schools. One of the Student Forum organizers, Brita Baranieski, told the students, “You are here because you are awesome. We want to hear what you have to say.” Teachers and students are exploring the question: “What engages you in learn-
ing?” Students shared that they are interested in learning that is about “doing”, such as project-based learning, where they can see the relevance of what they are studying. The students who attended the Student Forum will be integrally involved in student engagement initiatives at their school throughout the upcoming school year. Students also had an opportunity to share with each other about what makes their school a great place to be. The students heard from guest speaker Spencer West, who encouraged them to become agents of change in their schools and in their communities. “You have the power to make a difference,” he said. ”Don’t wait until you are older.” He told the students that they are more than what they look like on
the outside. West lost both legs from the pelvis down at the age of five, yet he has accomplished many goals and inspired people around the world.

Meewasin Valley Trail gets corporate funding boost Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. (PotashCorp) has committed $500,000 towards the expansion of the Meewasin Valley Trail between Chief Whitecap Park and Wanuskewin Heritage Park. “We strive to make a positive difference in the communities where we operate. Two of our priority areas for community investment are community building and health and wellness,” said Lee Knafelc, PotashCorp’s vicepresident of human resources and administration. “The Meewasin Valley Trail is an important natural resource of the South Saskatchewan River Valley that contributes to the physical fitness of Saskatchewan’s people and the enjoyment of our community while raising awareness of our environment. We are proud to support its development.” The Meewasin Trail stretches over 64 kilometres of the river valley and offers walkers, cyclists and cross-country skiers access to urban and natural areas. This expansion will add 16 km to an existing 14 km stretch of the Meewasin Trail designated as Trans Canada Trail, completing the 30 km connection between the City of Saskatoon and Wanuskewin Heritage Park, a national historic site. “The donation from PotashCorp to the ‘Meewasin Matters’ trail campaign allows us to continue the dream of expanding the Meewasin trail,” said Lloyd Isaak, chief executive officer of the Meewasin Valley Authority. “We are delighted and heartened by PotashCorp’s continued interest and substantial commitment to projects of such importance. The Meewasin Trail forms a vital part of the Trans Canada Trail that connects our great nation – this investment allows Meewasin to ensure our legacy of developing the internationally renowned trail is continued.” “This generous donation from PotashCorp will have a lasting impact on the well-being of the people of Saskatoon, but it also plays an important role in nation building,” said Deborah Apps, president and CEO of the Trans Canada Trail. “We are grateful for

Muench welcomes announcement of new joint-use school Martensville mayor thanks province for recognizing needs of fast growing cities Last week’s announcement by the Saskatchewan Government regarding the building of nine new joint-use schools, one of which will be located in the Martensville, is being lauded as
great news by City officials. “According to the government, the decision on where to locate the nine new schools in the province was made based on growth, and our community is absolutely one that is experiencing unprecedented growth,” says Kent Muench, Mayor of the City of Martensville. “We are very pleased that the hard work and dedication of families, students, teachers
and school officials are being recognized and that their concern regarding the daily pressures they face in overcrowded schools are being acknowledged.” This past July, provincial and municipal government and school division officials gathered in Martensville to celebrate the start of construction on the new multi-purpose facility, the largest construc-
tion project in the City’s history. Linked to that project is new construction and renovations at the City’s existing high school including a new gymnasium and performing arts theatre. “With two new schools coming, this is an incredibly exciting time for our community,” says Muench. “We look forward to upcoming community consultations and collaborating with the Prairie Spir-
it School Division, Greater Saskatoon Catholic School Division, along with our provincial government partners to ensure the best facility for our students and our community will be constructed.” Muench adds the dedication and support for the region by MLA Nancy Heppner has been outstanding. “As a partner in a growing province, the City of Martensville greatly appreciates the leadership position the
government has taken on the issue of education in our region,” he says. Over the past number of years, the population of Martensville has been on a steady rise. With a new City Hall and 50,000 square foot Athletic Pavilion under construction, and two major residential developments underway, the City has no doubt the new schools will be filled with Martensville students quickly.
PSSD board chair among those with unanswered questions about province’s plans for joint-use schools By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca
The government announcement for nine joint-use schools last week has left many people asking questions with no clear answers as of yet. One of them is Prairie Spirit School Division Chair Larry Pavloff. “We are very pleased with the additional spaces that have been announced for communities in Warman and Martensville. It is needed and it is great for these communities,” said Pavloff. “What we would like to know is how it will look like down the road? What will the bussing look like? How will teachers be hired? Who maintains the facilities that are joint use? Will the programming be similar or will there be different programming in each of the schools?” Pavloff added that the announcement was peculiar because just a few months ago Premier Brad Wall was quoted as saying that the amount of change happening in education could not move forward without engagement. “Our concern is that a month later we are being told that in our public school division where they are no Catholic schools, no separate schools, we are being told that we will have two joint facilities with two Catholic school divisions and there has been no engagement. There has been no conversation with us,” he said. Another question is the P3 funding model, which the government is hoping will build more joint-use schools in less time. According to the PPP [Public Private Partnerships] Canada website P3s “are long
term performance-based approaches to procure public infrastructure where the private sector assumes a major share of the risks in terms of the financing, construction and ensuring effective performance of the infrastructure, from design and planning to long term maintenance.” The website also states “Governments do not pay for the asset until it is built, a substantial portion of the cost is paid over the life of the asset and taxpayers are not on the financial hook for cost overruns, delays or any performance issues over the assets life.” Martensville MLA Nancy Needham said the government will exercise what it calls due diligence when it comes to the P3 funding model. “I think it is incumbent on any government to make sure going forward that we have done all of our homework, all of the research, have everything signed up before we have signed on the dotted line to make sure this is the right process. If you look at how P3s work we have the potential to build more in less time on budget. That is what is really important. We don’t need one or two schools in Saskatchewan, we need a lot of schools in Saskatchewan.” Ken Loehndorf, executive director of the Saskatchewan Catholic School Boards Association, said a petition put together by a handful of Warman Catholic taxpayers helped secure a school for the city. “I think the petition helped the government understand that there was a keen interest from people in Warman to form a Catholic school di-
vision and have access to a Catholic education. Had the petition not been there I am not sure what would have happened,” said Loehndorf. Loehndorf assisted residents with the petition during a public meeting a couple of months ago to see whether a Catholic school board could be formed with the goal of amalgamating with the Greater Catholic School Board. Its purpose was to set up a bussing system so parents in Warman could send their children to catholic schools in Saskatoon. One of the names on that petition was Josie Hodgkinson, who said she never dreamed that a Catholic school would ever be built in Warman. “Everyone is excited, happy, surprised because we were just applying to get the buses. We were just shocked,” she said. Hodgkinson said work to form a board really begins. “Right now we are waiting to hear back from the Minister of Education that they approved our petition. When we hear from them then we will have another meeting and
then an election to vote it in.” Word was received from the Minister of Education that the petition was approved. Chair of the a Greater Saskatoon Catholic School Board, Deanne Boyko, said the division already has jointuse schools such as Bethlehem and Tommy Douglas already in place with a news joint-use elementary school called Holy Trinity scheduled to open in 2014. The typical design includes a public school on one side and a Catholic school on the other. The middle section could be anything from a day care centre to whatever a contributing partner wants to put there. Boyko said there are challenges with joint-use schools but nothing too drastic where both sides can’t compromise. Martensville amalgamated with the GSSB in 2010 so parents could bus their children into Catholic schools in Saskatchewan. She said the relationship with parents and stakeholders in Martensville has been a positive experience.

Politicians forget where they came from
New rules for MP expenses a step in the right direction
The old adage about never forgetting where you come from should apply to politicians as much as it does to us.
COMMENTARY
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) welcomed improvements to MP expense disclosure announced recently by the Commons Board of Internal Economy. MPs’ expense claims will now be reported quarterly on the Commons website. There will be additional line items in the reports detailing spending for service contracts, MPs’ accommodation expenses, as well as hospitality spending on events, gifts and meetings. Travel expenses (except trips to and from MPs ridings) will now require the name of the traveller, the destination, the travel dates, the total cost, and the purpose of the trip. Receipts for these expenses, however, are not required to be disclosed. “Our politicians all preach the values of openness and transparency but refuse to practice these principles when it comes to their own expenses,” said CTF Federal Director Gregory Thomas. “These reforms are a step in the right direction, but there’s no excuse in 2013 for MPs not to provide receipts and contracts fully documenting their spending.” “MPs have gotten a free pass lately thanks to Senators like Mike Duffy and Mac Harb, but let’s not forget that the same rules that have given us the Senate expenses scandal also govern MPs’ expenses,” Thomas added. The CTF has been a leading proponent of greater accountability rules for federal politicians, in June calling for an Accountability Act 2.0, which would see mandatory online reporting of office, travel and hospitality expenses for all politicians (including receipts), random audits of MPs and Senators by the Auditor General, applying the Access to Information (ATI) Act to MPs and Senators, scrapping pension entitlements for those convicted of stealing from taxpayers and the ability to recall parliamentarians. “Canadians are tired of politicians hiding their expenses, giving contracts to their friends and collecting pensions from behind bars, all because they live by a different set of rules than the rest of us,” continued Thomas. “We will continue to drag MPs, kicking and screaming, it seems, to the same level of expense accountability that is now routine in places like Toronto City Hall and the Alberta legislature.”

Certainly, it’s an old adage long appreciated by rural Saskatchewan people who take great pride in where they are from. It is an important notion - one that also extends to what’s important to where we live. For that reason, we should not take for granted the importance of the new Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) that Prime Minister Stephen Harper just signed with the European Union. That said, there are any number of reasons why everyone should be more than a little displeased with Harper, his Conservative government and the Senate fiasco that has been very much of his creation.
Seniors care is getting worse in Saskatchewan, and it has to stop. In 2011, the government quietly erased the need to have “sufficient staff” from the regulations for seniors care homes. Now, charts have gone to managers and workers in seniors care homes which say that if the facility is understaffed – which, sadly, has become very common – the things that should be considered “non-essential” includes bathing, changing bedding,

er things coming out of Ottawa and one of them - the free trade deal with the European Union - is very important to Canada, Western Canada and rural Saskatchewan. We are a trading nation. We need to have opportunities to move our beef, pork, wheat, canola, pulse crops, oil and uranium to as many markets in the world as we can. Trade is a good thing for Canadians. Whatever supposed shortcomings there might be in the CETA deal, we gain more by having a trade deal than not having one. For that reason, we also cannot forget where we come from and underplay the importance of what governments do to provide us with more markets. In fact, one might think those on the left would be delighted by the simple fact that a trade deal with Europe means less dependency on trade with the U.S. Sure, it’s sometimes easy to lose sight of when Ottawa seems submerged in scandal. But perhaps we all need to remember where we come from.

account for accusations from Duffy that the Prime Minister had complete knowledge of the situation and even directly demanded that the P.E.I. Senator pay back the misappropriated $90,000. (Of course, we now know that the money was actually paid back by Harper’s former chief-of-staff, Nigel Wright). This is no trifling matter. If Duffy’s allegations that the PMO is now denying are true, Harper is guilty of lying to Parliament and lying to the country. This is a Prime Minister elected on integrity - one who vowed to clean house in Ottawa in the wake of the Liberals’ sleazy sponsorship scandal. Conservatives are losing sight of where they came from. And for Harper to now attempt to shirk his responsibilities by trying to hide the Senate scandal behind the recent CETA deal is appalling. But by that same token, maybe the rest of us need some perspective in understanding that the world cannot simply evolve around the Senate scandal. There are oth-

This issue here isn’t like the demise of the Canadian Wheat Board, or to a lesser extent, the demise of federal community pastures or the Indian Head Agroforestry Centre - where how you view this dispute may legitimately have something to do with your philosophical or economic view of the world. The Senate issue and Harper’s handling thereof should be an affront to people of all political stripes, including the staunchest Conservatives. It was, after all, Harper who appointed one-time popular journalists Pamela Wallin and Mike Duffy to the Senate, largely for reasons that had to do with their abilities to raise money for the federal Conservative party. It was Harper and his government who initially suggested the wrongful expense claims of both were really not out of the ordinary. And it was Harper and the Prime Minister’s Office who disavowed themselves from these problems, strongly suggesting that both Wallin and Duffy were strictly acting on their own. Now, it is Harper who must

doing laundry and cooking hot meals for the seniors. Prior to 2011, the regulations required that each person in care get a minimum of two hours of personal care per day. Two hours per day was not enough -- other provinces require 3.6 or 3.8 hours of care. But, instead of improving the basic standard of care, this government moved in the wrong direction and scrapped the minimum standard entirely. Throughout the province,

I’ve visited seniors’ homes and care homes, and I’ve listened to seniors and their families. I’ve heard about seniors left to soil themselves because there isn’t anyone to help them to the bathroom. I’ve heard about call buttons ringing unanswered and seniors being forced to get up at 5:30 a.m. because of short-staffing. One woman told me that if the time came for her to go into seniors care, she’d rather be hit over the head with a shovel.
Saskatchewan people are doing their part to care for their families, but this government isn’t holding up its end of the deal. The NDP wants to see better staffing levels and better standards of care in seniors care homes and the resources in place to ensure those standards can be met. Our parents, our grandmas and grandpas deserve dignity and so much more than they’re getting today. Cam Broten Leader of the Official Opposition

Lab tests underway on Legends Centre heating and cooling system By TERRY PUGH
tpugh@ccgazette.ca
The City of Warman and Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) are waiting for final lab test results before draining, flushing and replacing the glycol fluid in the heating and cooling system at the Legends Centre and Warman Community Middle School. The test results are expected on Thursday, October 31. Preliminary test results of the glycol fluid in the joint-use building’s pipes were obtained last week which showed excessively high levels of chlorine. That raised concern because chlorine, which can damage pumps and other mechanical components, is not supposed to be present in the closed circulatory system. The Legends Centre has been open for a year. It shares a common heating and cooling system with the newly-opened Warman Community Middle School. The two buildings’ systems were connected in early September. Warman Recreation and Community Services Manager Paul McGonigal said in an interview on Tuesday, October 29 that the initial tests were done in early October after the school system had been opened and the two systems joined. Routine checks revealed irregularities in the glycol mixture. “The glycol appeared cloudy, and it should have been clear,” said McGonigal. “It was discov-
ered that two different types of glycol were used after the school system was connected to the Legends Centre system.” But mixing the two types of glycol wasn’t the main problem, he added. “The system as a whole will still work fine, except that its efficiency is lowered somewhat,” he said. “So that wasn’t a big concern. But during the course of the testing, that’s when the presence of apparently high levels of chlorine were detected. Now the issue is determining for sure if there is chlorine in the system, and if so, how it got there, and what needs to be done to get rid of it.” Cleaning out the system requires closing off valves which connect three separate areas: the Legends Centre building, the Legends Centre arena ice plant, and the Warman Community Middle School building. The length of time that valves to any of those areas are shut off will affect the heating and cooling in that area. But before any work is done, the City and PSSD want to determine for sure if there is chlorine in the system, and if so, that it doesn’t reappear in the future. Samples of the glycol mixture were sent to two independent laboratories in the United States for testing. Depending on the results of these tests, user groups may be notified of any impending scheduling adjustments for the Legends Centre arena.

A multi-family residential complex for seniors is likely to begin construction in February or March, 2014, according to Ken Rempel with Bridge Road Developments, the company behind the project. Rempel said the company currently has about a dozen tenants that have committed to the project, and will likely see another three or four tenants sign up in the next few weeks. The building will be con-
structed in the new Lake Vista neighbourhood in Martensville on land that was purchased specifically for that purpose. In future years, a second building may also be constructed if there is sufficient demand. An information session outlining the four-storey, 34-unit apartment complex was held in Martensville on Wednesday, October 23.

Martensville seniors’ complex
School in Martensville recently got a taste of what their colleagues in drought-stricken countries go through every day. The school staged a “Walk for Water” event on Friday, October 25 in which students in Grades 4 to 8 filled 4-litre jugs with water and then carried them from the Martensville Arena back to their school, a distance of about a kilometer. The purpose of the event was twofold, said Randy Cline, a teacher at Venture Heights School. “It gives the kids a taste of

water for drinking and washing,” said Cline in an interview on Thursday, October 24. “There are a lot of places in Africa where kids have to walk many kilometers every day to get water.” Cline said the sheer amount of time kids in those povertystricken countries spend hauling water by hand leaves them little or no time to go to school. Relief efforts that go toward providing clean and safe water for those countries also helps strengthen children’s education in those areas.
Unicef with its Walk for Water event. Cline said this is the eighth year the school has undertaken a project like this. “Over the years we’ve steadily increased the amount of money we raise for Unicef,” said Cline. “Last year we raised $4,100, which was more money than any other school in Saskatchewan.” The previous year, the school raised $4,400. Unicef funds are used for a variety of projects, including digging water wells in villages, building basic schools and
dents in their jugs was used to water the trees at the school. Cline said the kids generally look forward to the event. “It’s fun for them, but I think it also gets them thinking about all the things they have relative to things that others don’t have, especially education. “I hope they realize it’s a tremendous privilege to be able to come to school,” said Cline. “So many children in other countries simply don’t have that opportunity. We also have access to clean water, and so many people don’t.”

Dalmeny celebrates Rider Nation grant

Over 700 people came out to celebrate the $50,000 grant Dalmeny recently received from Richardson Pioneer Rider Nation, as part of the 101st Grey Cup celebration. Rider pride and community pride came together in a big way as nearly half the town attended the Rider party at the Dalmeny High School on October 26. The event was the culmination of a major initiative by the Dalmeny Spray and Play Intergenerational Park Committee to get a big boost in funding for their multi-phase project. With over 133,000 votes cast, Dalmeny won the top prize and a party in their community to celebrate. The group from Rider Nation, including Gainer, were given a big welcome into Dalmeny. “They had a police escort into town. Sirens were going off and the buses were making all kinds of noise. They came off the bus and we were all there to welcome them,” says Crystal Benoit of the Spray and Play Committee. “It was really neat!” Rider alumni Andrew Green and Marcus Adams were on hand to sign autographs, patiently giving an extra hour to eager fans. There were bouncy houses for the kids and the Riders brought a football toss. Steve Mazurak, Vice President of Sales for the Rider organization could be seen showing a young six year-old how to properly throw a football. While the kids amused themselves, the parents settled in to watch the game on a huge screen in the high school auditorium. Before the cheque for $50,000 was presented at halftime, Mazurak offered congratulations. “I want to congratulate Dalmeny for a wonderful effort. You’re well on your way to Phase One. The Rider Nation is all about pride and passion, and when I look out and spend an afternoon and evening with you folks, I see pride and passion. It’s a credit to you, a wonderful jump in your quest to fulfill phase one and we’re with you all the way.” Blair Swarbrick, Marketing Manager at Richardson Pioneer commended the community for its successful efforts. “On behalf of everyone at Richardson Pioneer, I’d like to congratulate the town of Dalmeny for winning the Rider Nation Community Challenge for health and wellness legacy projects. The energy, the effort and the work that your group did for your pitch to win was awesome,” he said. “You guys did good.”

A cheque for $50,000 was presented to the Dalmeny Spray & Play Park Committee by representatives of Richardson Pioneer and Rider Nation Benoit thanked the community for backing the project. “Without your support and your votes, we wouldn’t be celebrating today, so thank you!” Benoit also provided a brief update on the project and thanked the committee. “The hard work and dedication and time that you have given to this project continues to amaze me. We do have a lot of fun together and have become a family unto our own, but at times it has been overwhelming and all-consuming, and I thank you for sticking with it,” she said. The cheque was presented to the sound of an actual drum roll and lots of hooting and applause from the crowd. Benoit found it pretty special to have the cheque presented in Dalmeny. “It was one thing to have it presented in Mosaic Stadium, that was pretty cool, but you’re looking out into a sea of strangers. But getting it presented and you’re looking out to the people who are going to benefit from it and your friends and colleagues, and the people who voted to win it, that’s amazing,” she said. “It was smaller crowd by far but it was so much more powerful and

special to have that brought to our community.” The committee has earned a well-deserved rest. But they’ve got a couple more fundraisers in their sights for this year. One is the Bake Sale and Christmas Market on November 9. They’re currently working on a grant with the Kinsmen. And they’re selling raffle tickets for their Saskatchewan Roughrider Raffle until December 6. “First prize is a football autographed by the 2013 Saskatchewan Roughrider team, 2nd prize is a football autographed by Chris Getzlaf, and 3rd prize is a Saskatchewan Roughrider tote bag, notebook, pen, thumb drive and cup,” says Benoit. Tickets are $2.00. The design for the park is nearing completion. “We are very close to finalizing our Master Plan with Crosby Hanna and Associates,” says Benoit. The plan was displayed at a town meeting last week. With $125,000 raised to date for the Dalmeny Spray & Play Park, and a committee that will never say no to any fund-raising or grant opportunity, the project is moving closer to fulfillment.

spired furniture. Russell finds this art very satisfying. “I’m a bit of a show off and I like to show off my cleverness. And for me that’s the key in my work is having something that brings a smile to people’s face that’s a little quirky and twisted and something nobody else would do,” he says. Russell has applied for and received a couple of grants over the years, to help him refine his skills or complete a certain project. “In 1993 when I wanted to learn how to carve they gave me a grant to work for six months, teaching myself how to carve, and that ended up in a show at the Craft Council,” he says. After that he didn’t look back and has been sculpting ever since. Another grant allowed him to prepare for a show at the Mendel. Russell says his work was originally inspired by a woman named Judy McKee who used a lot of animal forms in her furniture. Now though, with his individual pieces, one inspires the next. “A lot of what I do is pretty mindless. You just sort of stand there and push sandpaper, watch the line and keep it smooth and where you want it to be,” he said. “After you do that for a couple of hours your mind starts to wander around and that wanders you into the next piece.” The piece he is proudest of is probably the chair he’s sitting on. “This chair best combined

"Take Our Kids to Work" Day - On November 6, 2013, Grade 9 students across Canada will experience a day in the life of an adult - at work. The intention of this national program is to encourage students to start thinking early about their own career direction and the educational choices they need to make. It also allows parents and children the opportunity to share an understanding of the parents' work world. A "Parent/Employer Consent Form" was sent home with Grade 9 students. The form must be filled out, signed by the student, and parent or guardian and the workplace representative, and then returned to the school. If a student cannot accompany his or her parent to work, then he or she may accompany another relative or family friend. The expectation is that all Grade 9 students will participate in Take Our Kids to Work Day. Career Information and Events can now be found on Facebook at Career Guidance Warman High. Students and parents will find posts highlighting upcoming events and post-secondary information. All Grade 12s should make sure to check it out. Post Secondary Education Please go to the Warman High School website under Career Ed for Post Secondary information.

School Student Accident Insurance Prairie Spirit provides accident insurance through Industrial Alliance Insurance that provides insurance cover if your child has an accident at school during the school day. Children are also covered if the accident occurs at a time when they are involved in any extra-curricular activities before or after school hours, including school trips. In the unfortunate circumstances of needing this insurance, the school will need to be notified of the accident immediately so that they can submit an incident report to the insurance company and provide the parent or guardian with a claim form. The parent or guardian will need to pay any expenses initially, then ask the appropriate medical authority to complete and sign the form. The parent will then submit the form directly to Alliance Insurance. The claim process is between the parent or guardian and the insurance company. Industrial Alliance Insurance does offer additional KidsPlus Accident Insurance should you wish to purchase it. Details can be found in the KidsPlus Accident Insurance Package.

current power outages are occurring in the North Saskatoon region, but he said they are no more frequent now than in past years. “I realize that the northern part of Saskatoon is one of our trouble areas in the province,” said Watson. “The infrastructure in that region wasn’t kept up to date, and so the projects we’re undertaking there are quite dramatic. We have plans to build a new transmission facility to get that power directly to the northern part of the region, and also to the area west of Saskatoon, to bring more stability to the surrounding areas.”

Seniors complex meets need in Martensville company has built, and currently manages, in a number of smaller urban centres throughout Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The big difference between the Bridge Road Developments complex and a regular condominium is that tenants and investors are guaranteed a return on their investment, and tenants’ deposits are refundable when they move out. Tenants are required to put up an initial $1,000 deposit, which puts them in line for a suite when the building is finished, said Rempel. When construction starts, tenants are required to pay $55,000, and sign a lease. They get credit for their initial $1,000 deposit. “That $55,000 is an investment that you will receive 3 per cent interest on annually as long as you live in the building,” said Rempel. “Generally, the first year’s interest on that money will pay your first month’s rent.” If and when a tenant decides to move out, their $55,000 is fully refundable within 90 days, said Rempel. Tenants pay a monthly rent whch includes everything except their television and phone connections and additional tenant insurance. “There are no condo fees, taxes, water, electricity or natural gas bills,” he said. “It’s all included in the rent.”

Rempel said many seniors find the model attractive because it works out to be cheaper than living in their own home. He said the building is constructed to the highest standards available. Terri Hetterly, a former Martensville City Councilor, said the building marks the culmination of an effort by a local committee to improve senior adult living options in Martensville. Two years ago, a meeting was held to explore alterna-
tives, and after months of planning, the new building will soon become a reality, she said. Hetterly said a parcel of land in the RM of Corman Park adjacent to the Martensville city limits that was donated to the committee is still in the mix, but it will not be developed in the immediate future because the cost would have been prohibitive. “We still have that land, and we plan to build out there, but that’s a few years down the road,” she said.

Time runs out on Hilltops’ hopes By WAYNE SHIELS
essenceofsask@gmail.com
The Saskatoon Hilltops had their chance for history (four Canadian championships in a row) stopped when the Regina Thunder defeated them 21-16 in the Prairie Football Conference finals at Griffith’s Stadium in PotashCorp Park on Sunday, October 27. It was a game that Regina dominated for three quar-
ters, allowing Saskatoon to score only two points, including one on the opening kickoff into the end zone, and one on a missed field goal. Meanwhile, the Thunder scored 21 points on a rushing TD by Nick Brown, a recieving TD by Will Heward, two field goals and a single from a punt into the end zone. In the fourth quarter the Toppers attempted a comeback as RB Andre Lalonde scored with 7:27 left. With less than
two minutes left, the Hilltops moved the length of the field and Lalonde scored his second rushing TD with 1:07 remaining. Saskatoon was unsuccessful as they attempted an onside kick. The Hilltop defence stopped the Thunder and got the ball back with only 13 seconds left. Two long passes were unsuccessful and the Regina Thunder were able to celebrate their first Prairie Football Conference Championship.

Students, teachers get faster internet access Premier Brad Wall announced SaskTel will be investing more than $5 million in capital investments over two years to upgrade CommunityNet. This will ensure faster, and more equitable, internet access for teachers, students and administrators across the province. Wall made the announcement at the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation Councillor Conference in Saskatoon. In addition to the initial investment, SaskTel and the
Ministry of Education will also begin consulting with school divisions to determine growing bandwidth needs in the long term. “We have been talking to teachers, and one thing we’ve heard is the need for better internet access in schools,” Wall said. “Improvements to CommunityNet mean that all students across the province, will have better access to the digital tools and learning opportunities they need to succeed in a digital world, and to com-
Teens, parents still texting while behind the wheel Teens and parents still send texts, read emails and answer their phones while behind the wheel, according to a recent survey commissioned by Ford Motor Company of Canada Limited. Nearly all teens (93 per cent) and their parents (97 per cent) admitted to having engaged in some form of distracted driving. In Saskatchewan and Manitoba, 67 per cent of teens and 69 per cent of parents of teens admitted to using handheld technology, such as talking on a handheld phone or texting while behind the wheel. Recent studies cite cell phones as being one of the most common distractions for drivers, and that drivers engaged in text messaging in the vehicle are 23 times more likely to be involved in a collision or to come close to having an accident compared with nondistracted drivers1. Awareness of the dangers of distracted driving is also high. The survey shows that parents and teens alike believe that texting or emailing when driving is one of the most dangerous driving habits, second only to drinking and driving. The survey also shows one in five teens and parents report using voice activated and hands-free technology most or all of the time over a hand-held device. “We want people to be
Police believe remains may be of missing Krydor man A man has been charged following the suspicious disappearance of Arnoldo Rey Sr. of Krydor earlier this year. Blaine Lake RCMP have charged Arnoldo Rey Jr. with second degree murder and offering an indignity to a dead human body after the discovery of human remains at Rey Sr.’s property in Krydor. Rey Sr. had been reported missing to Blaine Lake RCMP on May 28 and hadn’t been seen since. Police added an autopsy will be conducted to confirm the identity of the deceased. Information obtained during the missing person investigation lead investigators to believe that the disappearance of Rey Sr. was suspicious and the RCMP Major Crime Unit North began assisting Blaine Lake RCMP with the investigation. Rey Jr. is being held in custody until his next court appearance on November 12 in Saskatoon Provincial Court.
aware of the dangers of distracted driving and help them develop safer driving habits,” said Dianne Craig, president and CEO, Ford of Canada. “Ford is deeply committed to driver safety. Technologies such as MyKey® and Ford SYNC® have important roles to play in limiting distractions and helping to change behaviours.
pete on an international level. This new investment is the most significant increase in bandwidth access for students since the program’s inception in 2001.” CommunityNet is a dedicated, wide-area network delivered by SaskTel that connects executive government, health and education sectors in the province. “CommunityNet is a critical part of classroom instruction, and the ability to have quick and uninterrupted service is crucial and a basic expectation of students today,” A. E. Peacock Collegiate Vice Principal Ward Strueby said. “An improvement in CommunityNet would be an improve-
ment in our student learning, and that is always a good thing.” “Access to bandwidth has been a challenge for teachers trying to access online resources and for administrators to access centralized services, and today’s announcement is about being responsive to the needs of teachers, students and school divisions,” Wall said. “The fact is that internet access is important with today’s use of technology in the classroom.” Over the next six months, school divisions will experience significant improvements in speed that will make their web-based work more responsive and faster.

Provincial crop in the bin Ninety-nine per cent of the crop has been harvested, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report. Harvest weather was favourable for most of the province, allowing producers to pull off well-above average yields and above average crop quality. For example, average yields for spring wheat and canola are 35 and 36 per cent higher, respectively, than the 10-year average (2003 to 2012). Average yields for spring wheat are reported as 46 bushels per acre, durum 45 bushels per acre, oats 91 bushels per acre, canola 38 bushels per acre, peas 43 bushels per acre and lentils 1,700 lb. per acre. The majority of crops are rating average to above average in quality and are reported as falling within the top two quality grades. Most regions have the majority of the crop in the bin. There are some areas in the southeastern and east-central regions that are 95 per cent combined. These areas have experienced significant rainfall throughout the growing and harvest seasons, resulting in some yield and quality loss. Some flax, chickpeas, canaryseed and oats are still being combined. Average hay yields on dry land are reported as 1.7 tons per acre for alfalfa and alfalfa/brome hay, 1.3 tons per acre for other tame hay, 1.2 tons per acre for wild hay and two tons per acre for greenfeed. On irrigated land, the estimated average hay yields are 2.3 tons per acre for alfalfa hay, 3.4 tons per acre for alfalfa/brome hay and four tons per acre for other tame hay and greenfeed. Cattle producers have adequate to surplus winter feed supplies. Across the province, topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as four per cent surplus, 62 per cent adequate, 22 per cent short and 12 per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as one per cent surplus, 60 per cent adequate, 25 per cent short and 14 per cent very short. The west-central and northwestern regions are the driest regions of the province. The number of acres seeded to winter wheat is on par with 2012; however, due to a late harvest, wet conditions in some areas and dry soil conditions in other regions, the number of acres seeded has decreased in the east-central, west-central and northeastern regions compared to the previous year. Acres seeded to winter wheat
have increased in parts of the south. Producers are busy finishing fall field work, hauling bales and bringing cattle home from pastures.

Defense digs in, Wolverines advance to semi-final Warman 34 Ft. Qu’Appelle 14 By TERRY PUGH
tpugh@ccgazette.ca
The Warman Wolverines’ defense played their best game of the season on Saturday, October 26 against the Fort Qu’Appelle Marauders. The Wolverines downed the Marauders 34-14 in Fort Qu’Appelle to win the 3A 9-man high school football provincial quarter-final game, and punched their ticket to the semi-final next Saturday in Meadow Lake. “Our defense was fantastic today,” said Warman head coach Tyler Scheidt after the game. “They dug their heels in right from the opening whistle and didn’t give an inch.” Which was a good thing, because it took the Warman offense almost the entire first half to get any traction. The real estate between the 30yard lines got chewed up pretty good, as the game settled into a defensive battle on both sides
of the ball through a scoreless first quarter. Fort Qu’Appelle had the advantage in size, but Warman’s defenders were tough, quick and determined. Finally, with just over a minute to go until halftime, Warman’s offense finally clicked into gear. Quarterback Josh Misskey connected with Anthony Hallborg on a 50yard pass and run touchdown play that brought the sizable Warman contingent of fans to their feet. Cole Balazsi’s convert made it 7-0 going into the break. The Wolverines scored three touchdowns in the third quarter. Tyler Hume ran 20 yards untouched into the end zone four minutes into the quarter. Josh Misskey crossed the line on a one-yard QB keeper two mnutes later, and Hallborg put the icing on the cake with another long pass reception – a 60-yarder – for his second touchdown of the day with 8 seconds left in the quarter. The Marauders, who finished first in their conference in the regular season, appeared

dazed by the Wolverines’ onslaught, but they recovered enough to score a touchdown of their own midway through the final quarter to make it 28-7. Warman’s rookie running back Jason Lindo plowed his way into the end zone to give the Wolverines a 34-7 lead late in the final quarter. The rookies got valuable playoff experience facing the big Fort Qu’Appelle players in the dying minutes of the game, as they gave up one more major with less than a minute to go. Scheidt said the defense played a key role in the win. “At the beginning of the game we kept going two and out, and we really couldn’t get our feet underneath us,” he said. “But our defense just kept making stop after stop and kept us in the game. Fort Qu’Appelle has some really big players, and we made some adjustments at half-time. We put Justin Schreiner in the backfield to give us a little more size, and that paid off. He made a huge differ-
ence for us.” Micah Heide, Jeremy Chaskavich and Kyle Keating stood out defensively for the Wolverines, while Anthony Hallborg, Tyler Hume and Josh Misskey registered strong performances on offense. Scheidt said it helped that the whole lineup was healthy coming into the game, and there aren’t any injuries to worry about next weekend. “We’ve got some momentum happening,” he said. “It’s nice to be in the top four teams, and we’ll take a good run at Meadow Lake and maybe we can make it to the final again this year. We’re certainly going to give it our best shot.”

Clavet student wins back-to-back cross-country gold By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca
For the second straight year, Jayson Childs has brought home the gold for Clavet Composite School’s cross country team. Childs finished in top spot in the 5 km race with a time of 18:16 at the Saskatchewan High School Athletic Associations cross country provincial meet at Medstead’s Little Loon Regional Park, on October 12. Childs, a well-spoken and confident Grade 10 student, said even he was surprised he took home the gold medal. “I wasn’t expecting it as much as the other events. I was hoping to win and I did. Some of those guys I competed against really surprised me this year. This was probably the best year where I was really excited to win,” said Childs. Childs explained that his biggest competition in Medstead was Emanwil Ginawi of Regina’s Miller Comprehensive High, , who placed second from Regina’s Miller Comprehensive High School, and Dayln Smith, who finished third from Lake
Lenore High School. It was a close battle to the end, with only 34 seconds separating him from second spot, said Childs. Childs got started in track and field three years ago. In his first year competing at provincials in the 1500 metre and 3000 meter track and field races, Childs also won gold. In fact, he hasn’t lost a race, yet. Moria Hamm, who coached Clavet Composite School’s cross country team, said she doesn’t like to take credit for his success because Childs has a raw natural talent. “I don’t know how I helped him besides encouraging him. I don’t see any limits to his potential. He is the most exciting athlete I’ve seen in a long time,” said Hamm. Childs is active in other sports, including hockey and basketball. He said he was encouraged to take up running by teachers Chad Williams, Audrey Gavlas, and Ian Obroderich. Childs said the most challenging part about running cross country is the nerves before the race. He does admit
Clavet Composite School’s Jayson Childs (578) leads the pack with a 34-second margin to take his second straight gold medal at the Saskatchewan High School Athletic Association’s provincial cross country meet on October 12 that his desire to be the best runner out there motivates him to push as hard as he can with every race. “It feels great when I place high in races,” he said. “It is also a nice feeling when you come back to school. All your friends are there to congratulate you.” Childs said he plans to continue running in indoor track

He also said he is already looking forward to running track at the university or college level. “I would love to go as far as I can in track and field,” he said. “I feel it is my best sport. My goal is to get a scholarship and run for the University of Saskatchewan. That would be my dream.”

Fitness Tips
Detox Diets
More and more individuals these days have tried detox diets. The regimens vary, some involve a juice fast lasting days or weeks and often include a ‘’cleanse’’ with limited food and/or ‘’detoxifying’’ supplements. With such a small amount of calories; sure you will lose weight and this seems to make detoxing tempting to many dieters. What is unique about this trend, it is tempting individuals who are not wanting to lose weight. That’s because these fasts are promoted as a way to improve health or cure chronic conditions by removing impurities from the body. So with that said, detox diets are given more credibility that the typical fad diet. BUT! Are these based on medical research or real science? Do you really need to detox? Martica Heaner, PhD, MA, MEd, who happens to have a doctorate in behavioral nutrition and physical activity, examines this trend.
ARE THEY SCIENTIFIC?
Extreme detox diets are not nutritionally balanced, says Christine Gerbstadt, MD, MPH, RD, a medical doctor and registered dietitian. She says these diets have to few calories, even if they incorporate a smoothie or meal, especially if you exercise while taking them. The risks are considerable. When there is insufficient protein or calories, you can loose muscle mass and experience dangerously low blood sugar, which can cause you to pass out creating an electrolyte imbalance, which can lead to a heart attack in extreme cases, says Marjorie Nolan Cohn, MS, RD, CDN, a spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics. Some detox diets can go the sensible route by providing juices or supplemented shakes with adequate calories and protein (1,200 calories per day). However, you must be healthy already and only be on it for a few days. You probably will lose a few pounds but it’s very doubtful that you are going to cure a disease, says Cohn. It is true though, that these exercises in portion control can produce weight loss, but the bigger question is whether a detox diet truly ‘’de-toxes’’.

WINNING STREAK
Sask Valley Vipers top Bantam AA standings By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca
The Sask Valley Vipers are sitting on top of the Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League with an impressive 15 wins, zero losses and three ties. On October 24 at the Martensville Arena, the Vipers scored five power okay goals to secure a 5-1 win over the Prince Albert Venice House Raiders. Then on October 26, the team embarrassed Notre Dame with a 8-0 pounding in Warman and doubled up on the Saskatoon Bandits by a score of 4-2, also at the Legends Centre. Vipers head coach Shaun Priel said he’s proud of his teams

effort in the game against Prince Albert. “I think we started a little slow, but really worked hard trying to get our power play clicking,” he said. Fans in the stands had to wait for two periods, three pinged goalposts and a highlight reel stop by Vipers goaltender Joel Grzybowski before Vipers veteran Chance Adrian deflected a shot in the slot to put his team up 1-0 in the dying seconds of the second period. In the opening minutes of the third Adrian picked up where he left off to add an unassisted marker for his second of the night to increase the lead to 2-0. When Vipers defenceman Austin Shumanski took his man Kyle Schneider completely out of the play with a bone crushing check as he was trying to cut an inside path to the goal, Schneider took exception to the check and tried to cross check Shumanski into a fight. When Shumanski didn’t retaliate, Schneider then decided to throw off his gloves in an attempt to pummel the vipers defenseman. Schneider received a 10 minute misconduct for his tirade, which gave the Vipers ample opportunity to capitalize with the man advantage. Priel said it was a great opportunity for his team. “If that is the way you are going to respond, especially at
this level it is not going to provide a whole lot of benefits for your team. It fired our guys up and we got a five power play goals out of it.” Austin Weiler, Shumanski and Cody Shrimpton had the other three goals for the Vipers against Prince Albert. Priel said playing disciplined has given his team the edge. “In this game the other team out penalized us and that has happened in all the games we have played this year. Everybody has out penalized us so when we maintain our discipline and then capitalize on our scoring chances like we did in this game the goal differential becomes a little spread out.” In the Notre Dame contest Benson Thorpe led team scoring with one goal and three assists followed by Cameron Adrian who had two goals and one assist and Tylin Cameron who scored one goal and one assist. In the Bandits game Jared Hamm led team scoring with two goals followed by Matthew Baraniuk and Jax Gipman., who each had single markers. The Vipers will head into a Regina tournament where they will play the Battleford Barrons and Regina Pat Blues on October 31 and the Saskatoon Generals and Norman Wolves November 1. The Vipers will take on the Generals again at the Kinsmen Arena in Saskatoon on November 9. Game time is 5:15 p.m.

It seemed like Warman High School student Lucas Stansfield started playing soccer soon after he learned to walk. That is the only way Stansfeild can describe his love for soccer. The previous two years the talented 17-year-old striker helped lead the Wolverines to regional wins and provincial berths in the Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association’s 3A Provincial Soccer championships. This year the Wolverines were not so lucky after being shut out 4-0 by Prince Albert’s Carlton High School, October 18. In 2010, Stanford helped his Saskatoon U-16 team, Hollandia Gremio, win provincials and a national berth in Lethbridge. Stansfield, who moved to Warman from England when he was only seven years old, said soccer was always in his blood. “It is part of the culture over there,” said Stansfield.” My friends and I started kicking the ball around at an early age. Soccer just grew on me and I played it ever since.” Robert McCaffery, who coached Stansfield when he participated in the University of Saskatchewan’s Huskies United Soccer Academy, said Stanfield is a technical player that has a habit of making other players around him perform better. “He is hard-working, definitely determined in terms of his skill set,” said McCaffery. “He just brought that kind of demeanor to the field every time he came out and trained. “I could tell early on that he had some communication and leadership virtues to his play.” Stanfield describes himself as an attacking player that can defend. In his soccer career playing at all levels, Stanfield has bounced around at all positions, playing striker, mid-field and defence. Stansfield said at the high school level he prefers playing centre forward, but favours playing a defensive role on Saskatoon club teams. Stansfield plans on studying to become an electrician after high school, which may determine where he decides to apply. He said colleges in British Columbia have the best soccer programs. McCaffery said Stansfield would be a great addition for university soccer clubs at the University of Saskatchewan or Regina. “He is a player with the right mindset and determination in the right system and the right environment could pursue soccer post high school, whether it is at a university in Saskatchewan or another opportunity,” said McCaffery.

Hanley crushes Elrose in quarter-final playoff The Hanley Sabers cruised to a convincing 74-16 victory over the visiting Elrose Eagles on Saturday, October 26. With the win, the Sabers advance to the Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association (SHSAA) 1A 6-man football semi-final playoff game next weekend in Lemberg. The winner of that game plays in the provincial chamionship final on Saturday, November 9. “It as a well-played game,” said Hanley head coach Mark Anderson. “Our team’s experience was evident in the play of the game.” Elrose was out-sized and out-mus-
cled throughout the contest, as Hanley’s offense marched downfield at will. The Sabers’ defense effectively snuffed out the Eagles’ rushing and passing game. Hanley led 22-0 at the end of the first quarter and 36-8 at the half. The score at the end of the third quarter was 66-8. HAGUE ELIMINATED The Hague Panthers, meanwhile, saw their playoff run end on Saturday, October 26. The Panthers lost their 1A 6-man provincial quarter final game on the road in Kelliher, as they were beaten
60-32 by the Ituna/Kelliher team. Ituna/Kelliher advances to play Gull Lake, while Lemberg will square off against Hanley in 1A 6-man football semi-final action on Saturday, November 2. DELISLE EDGED OUT The Delisle Rebels suffered a heartbreaking 31-29 loss to the Melfort Comets in Melfort on Saturday, October 2 during a 3A 9-man provincial quarter-final game. It was the second straight year the Rebels have been eliminated from the provincial playoffs by the Comets.

Public meeting set to provide information about new mineral refinery By TERRY PUGH
tpugh@ccgazette.ca
Will the proposed Fortune Minerals refinery near Langham result in long-term economic benefits, longterm environmental problems, or both? It’s a question that residents of the area are asking in the wake of a provincial environmental review that gave the proposed refinery a clean bill of health. While the province has approved the project, officially known as the Saskatchewan Metals Processing Plant (SMPP), many residents aren’t convinced the review process adequately addressed their concerns. They are primarily worried about the potential impact of pollution on the Dalmeny Aquifer, a key source of underground fresh water. A public meeting on the issue is scheduled for Tuesday, November 5 at the Langham Town Hall, starting at 7:30. Ken Crush, a resident of the RM of Corman Park whose land is situated close to the proposed site of the Fortune Minerals refinery east of Langham, says now is the time for the public to have meaningful input into whether the project is allowed to proceed. Crush is one of the organizers of the meeting. He said the meeting is a “grassroots” initiative, and neither politicians nor representatives of Fortune Minerals have been invited to speak. Instead, he said, the meeting is intended to summarize the company’s proposals, outline the conclusions of the provincial environmental review, and put forward relevant information. “It’s a way of getting important information out to people,” said Crush in an interview on Friday, October 25. “The environmental impact statement is a public document, but it’s fairly complicated and very technical. It’s also very thick - a total of 600 pages with all the apendixes. Even the provincial Ministry of Environment response is 13 pages long.” Crush said the provincial response downplays the potential problems associated with contamination and spills, and also treats too lightly the possibility that residents may have to revamp their water well systems if the aquifer level drops as a result of the refinery’s water usage.
INFORMATION UPDATES The meeting is designed to be concise but informative, said Crush. “Basically we will start off reviewing what Fortune Minerals is planning to do so everyone is up to date, and where the company is in their stage of development,’ he said. “Then we’ll briefly share with the public what we have done as an issue group. We’ll give them our response and get them up to date on that.” Crush said the meeting organizers “will provide the public with insights into what the company’s environmental impact statement says, and what the government has said relative to that.” Following the presentations, the audience will be divided into small groups to analyze portions of the environmental review. Reports from the various groups will be brought back to the committee. “This is a way for people to find out the facts,” said Crush. “Most people who go onto the website to download the report quit reading after a few pages because it’s so technical. “We just want to put the facts out there and let people draw their own conclusions,” he said. “If they aren’t concerned, that’s fine, but if they do have concerns, then they need to be able to make their views known to the government.” DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE The public can view the documents at the Langham Town Office, Dalmeny Town Office, Corman Park municipal office, or online at www.environment.gov.sk.ca/ea2010-064. The SMPP is $200 million hydrometallurgical processing facility designed to process mine concentrates into high-value metal products - specifically gold, cobalt, bismuth, nickel and copper. The raw metal ore for the facility would be sourced at Fortune Minerals mine in the Northwest Territories and shipped by rail from Hay River, NWT, to Langham. The company estimates the SMPP will process approximately 65,000 tonnes of metal concentrate annually for about 18 years- after which the facility will be decommissioned. The company estimates the project will provide 85 new positions at the refinery, with additional contract operating and maintenance jobs.

Construction activity is on pace to meet or beat the number of housing starts last year in Warman
No slowdown in sight for contractors By TERRY PUGH
tpugh@ccgazette.ca
It’s full steam ahead when it comes to the building boom in Warman, Martensville, Corman Park and other municipalities in the region. So far this year, the City of Warman has issued 513 building permits worth a total combined value of $82,561,674, according to figures supplied by Municode. Most of those building permits are for single-family detached residential dwellings, according to Sheri Stebanuk, Planning and Development Assistant with the City of Warman. “So far, in the period from January 1, 2013 to October 24, 2013, a total of 208 permits have been issued for singlefamily dwellings,” she said. The city has also issued 22 permits for multi-family residential dwelllings and 36 permits for industrial and commercial buildings and renovations. An

MARTENSVILLE BOOMING
It’s much the same story in Martensville. According to the City of Martensville Planning Department, the number of single-family residential housing starts is down in 2013 from the previous year, but it’s still healthy and growing. As of the end of September, 2013, there were 70 building permits issued by the City of Martensville for singlefamily residences, as well as 50 permits for multi-family units. In addition, there were 17 permits
for commercial and industrial buildings, and 5 permits issued for government and institutional buildings. The city issued 163 permits for residential additions and renovations and 64 permits for “other developments”. The total value of building permits issued in Martensville so far this year amounts to $42,431,560. In 2012, the combined value of all building permits in Martensville was $42,843,980. In 2012, the city saw 125 single-family dwellings built, as wll as 28 multi-family units. Martensville’s best year for growth was 2009, when a total of 201 single-family houses and 35 multi-family residences were built.
CORMAN PARK
The RM of Corman Park has issued a total of 143 building permits so far this year, up to the end of September. The total value of construction in the RM is $88,226,800.

Putting Students First • The Government of Saskatchewan will build nine new joint-use schools located in communities experiencing unprecedented growth; such as, Saskatoon, Warman and Martensville. • To meet the challenges of growth while providing the best education possible, these joint-use schools (Catholic and public school divisions) will offer options for shared programming opportunities for students and shared maintenance costs between the divisions. • Our government will construct these schools through a Public Private Partnerships (P3). By doing so, we are putting our students first, providing them with the best learning environments quicker than by building schools the conventional way. “We appreciate and thank our provincial government for stepping up and looking for solutions to over crowding in our schools. With this announcement we are charting new ground with this P3 and joint use partnership. We look forward to all the good work that lays ahead and the brand new school that will follow. We thank our MLA Nancy Heppner for keeping our needs in the forefront.” City of Warman, Mayor Sheryl Spence, October 24, 2013 “We are really quite excited about this announcement because it is going to relieve some pressure and its going to create schools within the community.” Greater Saskatoon Catholic Board of Education Chair Diane Boyko, October 22, 2013

Clavet defeats Shaunavon, advances to semi-final this weekend By WAYNE SHIELS
essenceofsask@gmail.com
The Clavet Cougars have been the cardiac kids this year as they won a series of close games to earn the right to host the Shaunavon Shadows in Provincial 2-A 9 man quarter finals. The home squad lived up to their reputation with an dramatic 36-33 win over their southwestern Saskatchewan
visitors on Saturday, October 26. It was Shaunavon that started quickly. After forcing Clavet to punt on the opening series the Shadows scored on their first offensive play of the game when QB Dakota McFadyen hit receiver Dean Wilkens for a 58 yard pass and run play. They then made the score 8-0 when their wind aided kickoff re-
Clavet receiver Ian Shimla dives in for the winning TD with 1:13 left
sulted in Clavet giving up a single. Shaunavon further increased their lead after a high snap on a Clavet third down punt had given them the ball on Clavet’s 33 yard line and RB Jordan Voll ran for a TD to make the score 14-0 less than six minutes into the game. The convert attempt was wide. On the next Clavet series Shaunavon intercepted the ball and returned it into Clavet’s 40 yard line. The Clavet defence stepped up to force the Shadows to punt. Clavet’s Carter Dahl ran the punt return to Clavet’s 31 yard line and the Cougars moved the ball downfield and capped the drive off with a short TD run by QB Graham Beresh. The two point convert was unsuccessful. Shaunavon covered the short kickoff attempt and capitalized when McFadyen hit Adam Peterson for a 53 yard pass and run TD. The convert gave them a 21-6 lead to end the first quarter.
Despite the slow start the Cougars were able to turn the game around in the second quarter. Coach Shaun Priel felt that the experience of winning so many close games helped keep the team’s focus. “ When you are in tight games like that you are facing adversity all the time. You need to make sure to stay positive and don’t get down. If you do it can get away on you pretty quick. It is important to make sure the kids stay positive, keep focused and keep battling forward.” And battle they did. The Cougars were able to take a 22-21 half-time lead when they were successful on two points converts on touchdowns by Graham Beresh and Ian Shimla. Clavet increased their lead in the third quarter on a when Carter Dahl caught a 7 yard TD pass. The two point convert attempt was unsuccessful. Shaunavon scored on the ensuing kickoff when returner Jor-
dan Voll ran it all the way for a TD. Their unsuccessful two point convert attempt meant that Clavet held a slim 28-27 going into the fouth quarter. The defences for both teams held strong for the start of the final quarter, until Shaunavon’s Adam Peterson made an amazing catch deep in Clavet’s end. The talented 6’ 5” receiver hauled in a pass despite blanket coverage. Peterson gave his team the lead as he ran up the middle for a TD on second and goal. After two and out for both teams the Cougars took possession of the ball on their own 25 yard line with 2:23 left in the game. A series of passes to Carter Dahl moved the ball into Shaunavon’s end and a run by QB Graham Beresh had the ball on the 13 yard line. Beresh then hit reciever Ian Shimla who was able to elude Shadow defenders and dive into the endzone to restore the lead for the home squad. Special teams stepped up big in
the final minute. Clavet executed a perfect on-side kick to give them possession of the ball. After a two and out a great coffin corner punt meant that Shaunavon was pinned inside their five yard-line. After an imcomplete pass on first down, Graham Beresh was able to seal the victory with an interception, and then as QB run the clock out by taking a knee. While Clavet has enjoyed success as provincial champions in 6-man football Coach Priel talked about the importance of the win as they move forward in 9 man provincials. “ Keep working hard, kids buy in, confidence will grow. Which is good because we have alot of grade 10 and 11s that haven’t played at this level before. Them getting the experience of having success like we did today will help them as we go forward.” Clavet will host Foam Lake Saturday, November 2 in 2-A 9 man semi-finals.
Team must toughen up mentally going into playoffs: Chamblin The Saskatchewan Roughriders are seriously teetering on a cliff right now. The Green & White were denied a fourth-consecutive victory Saturday night in Calgary when they lost 29-25 to the Stampeders. It clinched top spot for the Stamps and means if the Riders want to get to the Grey Cup they’ll have to beat B.C. in the semifinal here in Regina, then go to Calgary to upset the mighty Stampeders just get back home and face Kent Austin’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the CFL title game on November 24 (that’s my bold prediction and has been since the spring). How are the Riders teetering on the brink of extinction so far in advance of the Grey Cup? Well after this week’s
throwaway game at home against Edmonton to conclude the regular season they’ll enter the perilous single-elimination tournament. At this critical juncture it remains to be seen if the Riders are peaking at the right time or “firing on all cylinders”, whatever that means. I was never much into cars. So while the Stampeders were putting the finishing touches on their first-place finish the other night, effortlessly switching up quarterbacks as if coach John Hufnagel was shifting gears in a Mercedes, the Roughriders were stuck on the side of the road, looking under the hood amidst a pile of steam. That’s the way it looked to me. The sideline blow up between Rider tailback Kory Sheets and offensive coordina-
RIDER INSIDER ROD PEDERSEN
Voice of the Riders Roughriders Radio Network
tor George Cortez was so troubling you wanted to look away and after the game Rider defensive back Dwight Anderson fumed to reporters, “Calgary sucks!” Even the most dyed-in-thewool Rider supporter would think to ask Dwight, “so where does that leave you?” Really the most troubling thing right now is the frustration of the Riders’ undisputed MVP Kory Sheets. He was limited to 42 yards on 11 carries and the strategy was unclear;
did the Riders abandon the run because Sheets wasn’t getting early yards or was he never really part of the game plan in the first-place? Even Sheets himself doesn’t know and it took veteran slotback Geroy Simon to calm him down going into the half at McMahon Stadium. “Honestly I just said use that emotion on the field,” Simon shrugged. “Guys get heated and they get emotional and frustrated. Guys gotta try to calm each other down but at
some point you gotta let guys be themselves and vent. If it’s on the sidelines it has to be channeled the right way but if it’s on the field you can use that to motivate you.” Upon the team’s return to Regina head coach Corey Chamblin said they aren’t “mentally tough enough” in some areas at this point in time and the Sheets blow-up is another sign of where they are as a team right now. Peaking at the right time? Hardly. But there’s time to figure it out and that’s generally what they do best. Losing streaks are followed up by winning streaks around here and if the Riders were to clinch firstplace and win the Grey Cup they would have had to string together eight-straight victo-
ries going back to Week 15 in B.C. That’s highly unlikely if not impossible for this team to do. So they’ll regroup, recharge and tune up against Edmonton before attempting to eliminate the B.C. Lions who will likely still be without top pivot Travis Lulay. Then a trip to Calgary and the Western Final looms on the horizon and the Riders’ odds are just as good as the Stamps in that one. Home teams are 5-5 over the past decade in CFL West Finals. It really was a razor-thin loss in Calgary in a game in which the Riders shot off almost all of their toes. They’re going to work to fix these things for the game that really counts. Sometimes it’s better to be the hunter than the hunted.
