REVVED UP AND READY Prairie Women on Snowmobiles trek represents mission of hope for cancer survivor

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Patti Hoffinger isn’t too worried about the prospect of riding hundreds of kilometers of snow-packed trails in sub-zero temperatures.

That’s nothing compared to what she’s been through.

“Four years ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer,” said Hoffinger, a resident of the Grandora area and one of several participants in the upcoming Prairie Women on Snowmobiles (PWOS) cross-province trek slated for January 30-February 7. “I had a life-saving mastectomy, and then chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy. I’ve been through that journey, and I feel so blessed to be able to do something that will help other women who find themselves in that situation.”

Hoffinger said she went through reconstructive surgery this past summer, shortly after she found out she was selected to participate in the annual PWOS ride.

“This is like the final chapter on my personal breast cancer journey,” she said.

Hoffinger says she’s hoping the funds raised during the trek from Prince Albert to Swift Current and back to Nipawin will make a difference for future generations.

“I’m really doing this for my two daughters,” she said.

“They’re the ones I’m riding for. I hope they never, ever have to go through what I’ve experienced. I’m hoping that research will lead to ways to overcome cancer.”

But Hoffinger says there’s another reason she’s so excited to be one of the riders in this year’s epic journey.

“I love snowmobiles,” she said. “I’ve always been passionate about these machines. “Way back in the 1980s I used to race sleds. A couple of times I came in second or third in the province, but that was a long time ago. I haven’t done any competitive snowmobiling for a long time.”

Hoffinger said she applied to be part of the PWOS trek after reading about the 2013 mission in an edition of the Clark’s Crossing Gazette. “I read the article and literally started crying,” she said. “It just hit so close to home. I really felt I

needed to apply to be part of the next mission in 2014.”

But there were a few obstacles she had to overcome.

“One of the stipulations is that you have to raise $3,000 to be eligible to participate, and you also have to supply your own sled,” said Hoffinger. “I have a snowmobile, but I blew the engine three years ago and it hasn’t moved since I parked it beside the barn. Luckily, I have a cousin who is letting me borrow his sled, and he’s also helping me get it up to Prince Albert for the start of the trek.”

Hoffinger said she’s been fundraising, and has received generous support from her neighbours. Donations to each of the riders can also be made online through the PWOS website, which is reached via the Canadian Cancer Society website (www.ccssk.convio.net).

BATTLE AGAINST CANCER

This is the 14th annual PWOS mission, according to Carol Lueken, PWOS President. And while the route varies from year to year, the overall objective of the mission is constant.

“It all started in 2000 with a breast cancer survivor and her friend from Regina Beach,” said Lueken. “The first ride was in 2001 when they organized a trek from Fort Qu’Appelle. The support they got was amazing, and it’s grown from there. It’s a lot of work to organize and carry it off, but it’s never tiring. It’s very, very rewarding.”

This year’s mission begins in Prince Albert on Friday, January 31. That first day will see the ten riders finish up in Martensville, where they will be treated to a banquet at the Adobe Inn. They leave the next morning and travel west

Patti Hoffinger of Grandora is a participant in the Prairie Women on Snowmobiles mission through Asquith and on to Kindersley.

The route takes them as far south as Swift Current and Regina before heading back north through Humboldt and eventually up to Nipawin on February 7.

“We’ll be on the trail for eight days,” said Lueken. “This year the route will be 1900 kilometers long, and we’ll be averaging about 200 kilometers a day.”

Leuken said it’s a gruelling ride, but the women who participate form lasting friendships, and they meet wonderful supporters at each stop along the way.

“We hear a lot of survivor stories,” she said. “We also hear many stories from people who support what we’re doing in memory of a lost loved one.”

Leuken said the mission is about more than raising money for cancer reseach, however.

“It’s about raising aware-

ness,” she said. “Early detection of all kinds of cancers is the key to survival. People need to pay attention to the warning signs, and don’t be scared to get a second opinion. It’s very important to have regular examinations.”

Aberdeen youth hope to make a difference with ‘VolunTour’ trip to Africa Participants will help build a school in Kenya

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

When Aberdeen Composite School students celebrated the Saskatchewan Roughriders fourth Grey Cup at Aberdeen Community Hall last weekend, some students and community members were probably wondering how much money they raised.

The community of Aberdeen, students and surrounding towns and villages held a Grey Cup party at the hall to raise funds for a Me to We community trip to Kenya.

Me to We is associated with Free the Children, an international development organization and educational partner.

Free the Children is also associated with We Day, which was recently held in Saskatoon on November 6.

Kelli White, a social studies teacher at Aberdeen Composite School, said students were inspired to make a difference in the world after the first We Day event held in Saskatchewan last February.

“After the first official We Day in Saskatchewan the kids were just on fire,” said White.

“They came back to school wanting to do something.”

White said during the We Day ceremony, students were given postcards with questions on them asking them how they would like to get involved to change the world.

One of the options was a “VolunTour” trip to Africa, where they would have the opportunity to help a community in Kenya build a school. The kids were eager to learn more.

To find out more information, White called EF Tours, a company that organizes educational tours for Free the Children. The tours aim to help youth use the experiences to gain leadership skills while encouraging community interaction, cultural immersion and meaningful volunteerism.

When she discovered that formal permission would be required by the Prairie Spirit School Division to take students on the trip, White decided

that it would be better to travel to Kenya as a community and school together.

At first she was hoping for 13 people. She wasn’t expecting to attract 35.

“Some people are coming from Vonda and Prud’homme just because they go to this school,” said White. “Almost all the kids are from the school and a couple are from outside. We are maxed out. We have to start

a waiting list for people.”

The challenging part will be raising the money, said White.

With the trip tentatively scheduled for the spring of 2015, the extra time will allow students to raise funds to finance the trip.

“The initial cost for each student was $4,665, that they raised on their own,” she said. “There was about $149 insurance that they could purchase as well.”

Grade 8 student Renee Lepage said she plans on playing a few gigs around town to raise her portion of the money needed for the trip.

“I have never done anything like this before,” said Lepage.

“The trip will be a good thing because a lot of people take school for granted. Once we are over there we will see the important role a school plays in a community.”

White said the trip will take twelve days, but the group, which are calling themselves Africa VolunTour will only be in Kenya for nine days.

White said preparation is key when travelling abroad.

“My biggest concern is helping the children get through the culture shock and a little bit of homesickness.,” she said.

White said one of the reasons she became a teacher was that

while she was growing up, she was very involved in many extracurricular and school activities. Her experiences had a big impact on her.

“Kids won’t always remember what you teach them. But they will remember how you treated them,” she said. “At this age ,especially in Grades 6, 7 and 8, kids are interested in social justiceand fairness. They just want to make a difference.”

Municipal leaders answer questions, tackle regional planning

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Elected leaders from Saskatoon and surrounding municipalities are looking to take discussions about regional planning to the next level.

Delegates to the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit last week spent several hours grappling with key questions, but eventually reached a broad consensus to pursue a regional plan that recognizes municipal autonomy while encouraging shared infrastructure improvements and economic growth.

At the summit, delegates grappled with four key questions, including: 1. What is the Saskatoon Region?

2. What are the principles upon which a regional plan should be based?

3. What are the terms of reference to use going forward to help form a Saskatoon Region Growth and Development Plan?

4. What are the expectations for deliverables, outcomes and time frame for a draft region-

al plan?

The consensus was that municipalities needed to cooperate on basic infrastructure improvements like water distribution, surface drainage, wastewater facilities, trans-

portation and other utilities.

They felt that the Saskatoon region was roughly a 60-kilometer radius around the City of Saskatoon and included the “service area” and “commuter shed”.

Partnerships Regional Growth Summit brings all players to the table

They agreed that in future planning, municipalities needed to retain their identity and a large degree of autonomy; and that a regional plan should be developed within five years.

It was agreed that a regional voice would carry more weight in political negotiations with the provincial and federal governments.

A full report from the summit is slated to be released on the Saskatoon Regional Economic Development Authority website (www.sreda.com) by mid-December.

Summit aims to kickstart regional cooperation, planning for growth

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The time is right for municipal governments, the private sector and the province to work together promoting sustainable economic growth in the Saskatoon region.

That was the consensus emerging from the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit in Saskatoon November 20 and 21. Organized by the

Saskatoon Regional Economic Development Authority (SREDA), the two-day conference attracted about 250 delegates representing urban and rural municipalites in the Saskatoon area and across the province. It was the second regional summit of its kind in two weeks, and followed on the heels of a similar meeting in Regina.

Organizers and delegates

Regional Growth Summit co-chairs Bruce Richet (left) and Terry Fonstad

are hopeful the conference will promote better communication between municipalities, and boost the level of regional cooperation on joint infrastructure projects, economic development initiatives, and land use planning.

“If this is the catalyst that starts us down the road to regional planning, then it’s been a success,” said summit cochair Terry Fonstad, an Engi-

neering Professor at the University of Saskatchewan and an elected councilor with the RM of Blucher. “It’s not just a question of being better prepared for economic growth.

It’s a question of ensuring a good quality of life for everyone.”

Simply getting elected representatives of large and small municipalities in the same room to talk about the issues

and agree on basic priorities is a big accomplishment, said Bruce Richet, SREDA Board Chair and co-chair of the summit.

“We made a conscious effort, back when we started organizing this event eight or nine months ago, to involve all the key stakeholders and try to get everyone on the same page,” said Richet. “The lack of communication in this

region is significant.

“The whole purpose of this summit was to provide information and give everyone the chance to learn about the experiences of other regions like Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Portland and the Niagara region of Ontario. There are lessons that we can learn from their experiences.”

Looking beyond boundaries Richet said taking a regional approach can “add value” for individual municipalities when they lobby senior levels of government.

Elected officials and administrative staff from Saskatoon, Warman, Martensville, Dalmeny, Osler, Delisle, Langham, Dundurn, Clavet, Aberdeen, and other urban centres as well as numerous RMs including Corman Park, Blucher, Aberdeen, Dundurn, Vanscoy participated in the conference.

After hearing presentations on several existing models of regional governance, delegates spent the final afternoon mapping out principles and priorities for the region, and trying to come up with ways of ensuring each municipality maintains its own unique identity and character while working with its neighbours toward a common goal.

Fonstad said the best long-term plan for the region is one that comes from the people who live and work in the area. But to do that, they need to look beyond their own municipal boundaries and take a holistic approach.

“We’ve been guilty in the Saskatoon region of defining our own little area and focusing on that, and not taking into account neighbouring municipalities,” said Fonstad. “The reality is that we’re not independent. We’re all interdependent on each other. Every part of the region has its strengths and weaknesses, and by working together, we can come up with a common plan that benefits all the residents of cities, towns, villages and rural municipalities in the region.”

Fonstad said the overall development plan that was put in place in 1905 served the province reasonably well for the past century.

“From 1900 to 1930, our parents and grandparents did similar types of planning,” said Fonstad. “They laid out a hundred-year plan for transportation and towns and infrastructure and governance. But we’re at a point now where we’ve hit the end of that 100-year plan, and we need to figure out what the region and the province will look like for the next 100 years.

“If not us, then who, and if not now, then when? If we’re going to sit and wait for someone else to do it, we’re going to wait a long time.”

Fonstad said the pace of growth, both in the economy and the population of the region, is putting a strain on exisiting infrastructure. But it also provides the resources for building new homes and providing new jobs.

It’s a question of planning for growth, he said.

“Residents of the region may not realize the full significance of when you move from $5 billion in investment in the province to $25 billion in less than eight years,” he said. “This is the area where investors want to put their money. It’s a tremendous opportunity but it’s also a tremendous responsibility.”

Regional governance models should fit local needs, says professor

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

When it comes to regional governance models, there’s no such thing as ‘one size fits all’, according to Professor Andrew Sancton of the University of Western Ontario.

Speaking at the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit last week, Sancton said there are four basic models: amalgamation, regional special-purpose bodies, voluntary cooperation, and provincial planning control.

Sancton said Halifax Regional Municipality is an example of amalgamation.

“It was created in 1995 through the amalgamation of the Cities of Halifax and Dartmouth, the Town of Bedford, and Halifax County,” said Sancton. “It includes the entire metro area of those urban centres, but it also goes well beyond that. The area of Halifax itself is quite small in relation to the whole municipality. The sheer geographic size is massive. You can’t even get all the ward boundaries on a single map. Peggy’s Cove is part of this. In fact, you’re halfway to Cape Breton by the time you get to the outer boundary.”

City of Vancouver is not completely dominant.”

That type of model, however, may not work as well in a situation where one urban centre is much larger than its neighbours, he added.

The third model is “voluntary cooperation” along the lines of the Calgary regional partnership. Sancton said this type of regional cooperation has strong advantages, but the reality is that Calgary itself, where 90 per cent of the population of the region live, is largely the agenda for the “I think it is a real good model setting region.

“Calgary is still very dombecause it emphasizes inant,” he said. “So a true local autonomy, and that’s partnership becomes a one of the main reasons why it challenge.”

The fourth model is one in works. The City of Vancouver which the province takes a leading role, such as some is not completely dominant.” places in Ontario, said • University of Western Ontario Professor Andrew Sancton Sancton.

“The area around Toronto, which includes Hamilton and the Niother version of regional governagara region, is considered the greatment” that includes special-purpose er Golden Horseshoe,” he said. “This bodies. is the area that includes more than “I am a great admirer of struc60 per cent of the population of Ontural arrangements for Metro Vantario, and in many areas the provincouer,” said Sancton. “I think it is a real good model because it emphasiz- cial government has assumed control over some aspects of land use es local autonomy, and that’s one of planning.” the main reasons why it works. The Sancton said the major challenge facing this type of municipality is that rural issues tend to get lower priority because representation at the council table from outlying areas is in a minority.

“I’m not enthusiastic about this type of amalgamated regional government,” said Sancton.

Sancton said the Greater Vancouver Regional District, colloquially known as Metro Vancouver, is “an-

For example, he said, the province instituted “Green Belt” designations a few years ago which limited the amount of urban, commercial and industrial development in certain areas. The strict rules were designed to preserve high-quality agricultural land, sensitive ecological areas and green spaces, but it created other, unforeseen problems.

“The problem with Green Belts is that people and developers jump across that belt and develop outside the Green Belt,” he said. “That defeats the purpose because now you’ve simply designated growth areas further away from the existing urban centres, and increased the commute times and added to transportation problems. You’ve also placed restrictions on the land and limited landowners’ options.”

Sancton said the Saskatoon regional area needs to be defined by the local governments. They also must figure out what type of regional governing body will work best for this area.

He suggested a “federation of municipalities” that would work to reduce costs of service delivery through cooperation is a better option than creating another level of government.

Calgary regional plan based on common objectives

By TERRY PUGH

Concern over the quality and availability of water in the Calgary region has spurred greater cooperation among muicipalities in the area, according to Colleen Shepherd, Executive Director of the Calgary Regional Partnership (CRP).

Speaking at the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit last week, Shepherd said the CRP is “pioneering a voluntary collaborative governance model” for managing growth. The CRP includes 14 municipalities representing 1.3 million people in the Calgary metropolitan region. The CRP’s initiatives include the Calgary Metropolitan Plan (CMP) and the Calgary Regional Transit Plan to guide growth. The region has forecasted an additional 1.8 million new residents and 800,000 new jobs for the region in the coming decades.

“There’s a lot at stake if you don’t work together,” Shepherd told delegates to the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit. “For our region, water is the compelling issue that has led to a collaborative approach. Our water system is at risk in our rapid-

ONE

ly growing region. We’re projected to reach 3 million people by 2076, and when you add in 800,000 new jobs and thousands of hectares of new development on the landscape, then it becomes critical. We’re already at capacity when it comes to water.”

The CRP also has to address land issues, urban growth and shared infrastructure, she said.

Shepherd said a plan is essential for managing growth, protecting and preserving the natural environment, ensuring clean and plentiful water supplies and continued economic prosperity. She said the CRP “recognizes and respects the uniqueness of each municipality, but encourages collaboration.” It’s not always easy, she added, but the bottom line is that by working together, all the municipalities will be better off.

“The future of our region depends on it,” she said.

The CRP began in 1999 as a loose network of communities. By 2004, the economic boom was putting pressure on municipalities’ infrastructures, and it became obvious that some kind of regional plan was essential.

Y ONLY | NOVEMBER 29 |

“There were adversarial boundary relationships and costly annexation battles,” said Shepherd. “It was apparent that if we continued on the pathway we were on we were guaranteeing ourselves a very costly and unsustainable future.”

The municipalities took a leadership role, brought all the regional players to the table, and after three years of political negotiations, mapped out a plan that everyone could buy into.

“We wanted to get ahead of things

and develop our own voluntary plan in a way that was self-determining,” she said. “We didn’t want to have the province dictate our regional plan.”

In 2008, the Alberta government passed a Land Stewardship Act which mandated regional plans, but has allowed Calgary to continue with its voluntary plan. Shepherd said the CRP is gradually moving more and more away from its “voluntary binding relationship” and toward a legislated framework to comply with the provincial legislation.

Government introduces legislation to change name, role of SIAST The Government of Saskatchewan has introduced legislation to provide the Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology (SIAST) with the clear authority to operate as a polytechnic institution.

The proposed legislation will change SIAST’s legal name to ‘Saskatchewan Polytechnic’.

“This new Act will help introduce the role of Saskatchewan Polytechnic,” Advanced Education Minister Rob Norris said. “We believe these changes will benefit both students and the school’s reputation across the country.”

Polytechnic institutions undertake applied research and scholarly activity and give students the opportunity to take new and innovative programs.

The proposed legislation will: • protect the term polytechnic; • clarify the institution’s ability to fundraise for proper-

Waldheim employer fined for safety violation Cary Brent Thiessen of Waldheim, Saskatchewan pleaded guilty to one charge under The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations, 1996 and was fined $4,900 in Saskatoon Provincial Court on November 19, 2013.

The employer pleaded guilty to contravening Section 262 of the regulations (failure to comply with Section 262 of the regulations where a worker was present in an excavation that was more than 1.2 metres deep) and was fined $3,500 with a $1,400 surcharge.

The charge stemmed from an inspection by an Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Officer on June 21, 2012 of an excavation in Martensville. Two workers were observed working in the bottom of a trench which was not compliant with occupational health and safety legislation.

One other charge against Mr. Thiessen was stayed.

OHS conducts approximately 4,000 worksite inspections annually to ensure standards are known, understood, and enforced. Last year, 33 per cent of all inspections were in the construction industry.

Regional summit Good and bad in Saskatchewan connects us all a positive start

COMMENTARY

The Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit held November 20 and 21 in Saskatoon marked the first time that municipal leaders in Saskatoon and surrounding municipalities - both urban and rural - came together in one place to talk about common issues in a meaningful way.

In the past, communication between municipalities - particularly the City of Saskatoon and its neighbours - has been one-way. The big city, for obvious reasons, usually dominates the agenda and carries the most weight.

But that one-sided way of doing things has also led to rumblings of resentment in some of the outlying areas. There is a feeling that the economic boom that has brought so many benefits to the region should be shared equally by all the municipalities in the region, regardless of their size.

There is also a recognition by all the municipalities that if this economic growth and subsequent population boom are going to continue, there will be increasing strain on the infrastructure in the years to come. There needs to be more and better roads, waterlines, water treatment facilities, housing, schools, parks, as well as recreational, health care, home-care and other facilities. All these things require planning, not just within each municipality, but within the region as a whole.

Regional cooperation makes sense. Several speakers at the regional growth summit used examples from other parts of Canada to show that municipalities that work together can save their ratepayers money when they build shared infrastructure facilities.

In the Greater Vancouver area, for example, where there are 24 different governing bodies in a very confined geographic area, the water distribution system crosses numerous municipal boundaries. The water treatment facility, the pumps, and the underground pipelines that carry the water to residences and businesses are all held in common. Each municipality is responsible for metering the water used within its boundaries and collects payments from its own residents and businesses.

This mix of sharing resources while still retaining individual municipal identities offers a good example.

There are other examples in other regions, like Calgary and Edmonton.

Closer to home, Warman, Martensville, Osler and Corman Park have been working to coordinate their future growth.

The reality is that there are no quick solutions to the challenges facing municipalities as they try to accommodate the demands of the economic boom. But the first step has to be working with their neighbours to find out what works and what doesn’t.

Regional cooperation and communication will lead to positive results, and it’s far better to have that regional plan mapped out at the grassroots level, by people who live and work in the region, than to have it imposed from above by the provincial government.

Correction

An article in the November 21 edition of the Clark’s Crossing Gazette entitled “Innovative family entertainment center slated to open in Warman next spring,” incorrectly identified the co-own-

er of CJ’s Climb and Play. Her name should have read Laura Orenchuk, not Leorenchuk. The Gazette apologizes for the mistake and any inconvenience it may have caused.

It’s seems a good week to talk about how connected we really are in this province.

Of course, the thing that’s connecting all Saskatchewan people together this week is the Roughriders’ now in the Grey Cup – not just any Grey Cup, but one held on the ‘Riders’ home turf in Regina.

MURRAY MANDRYK

Provincial Politics

Young or old, rural or urban, left or right, north or south, east or west – the Saskatchewan Roughriders are the glue that seems to bond everyone from here together.

As a born and raised Manitoba that’s lived here for 30 years, it’s a phenomenon that’s still not particularly easy to understand. And it’s sometimes especially hard to understand in the context of people that have so many other differences.

This is, after all, a province where rural and urban interests have often bat-

as apparent as the wearing of ‘Rider green. We are connected simply because – in a province of this size – issues and struggles will eventually connect us all.

For example, Regina and Saskatoon have been at a near-crisis state at their hospital emergency rooms for some time now – largely driven by a shortage of ER doctors.

On the surface, this might seem to be strictly an urban problem. After all, a quick trip to a Regina ER will reveal a clientele with a lot of inner city people. But it’s also here where the interconnections become obvious.

Many of those inner city people who wind up in ERs are urban First Nations people whose families came to the cities to escape the poverty and joblessness of rural reserves. Some First Nations people are becoming urban success stories, but many more have brought with them the legacy of residential schools and reserve life.

Many have found their way into the violence, addiction and bad health outcomes of inner-city urban life. Rath-

er than seeing the local rural doctor, the city ER room is the first place where they meet medical professionals.

However, urban ER rooms do not distinguish people by their walk of life, income level or background.

City ER rooms are also filled each day by ambulances from both the city and country. Their passengers may be car accident victims from rural roads, farming, mining or oil field accident victims, heart attack victims or struggling elderly.

At one time, some of these people would have been treated at local rural hospitals ... or the Plains Hospital on the outskirts of Regina. But the Plains Hospital was closed in the 1993 along with 52 rural hospitals that no longer serve emergency needs.

All of this has placed added pressures on our urban ER rooms, making this an issue for all us. But it also demonstrates how connected we truly are.

Whether it’s a positive like the ‘Riders in the Grey Cup or a negative, Saskatchewan people are in it together.

Reader Opinions

On the verge of something better Yesterday’s by-election results in four constituencies across the country are an indication that meaningful change is beginning to take hold in Canada’s political system. Voters are looking for something much better than what they’ve had to endure over the past eight years.

Support for Justin Trudeau’s Liberals was up substantially in each of these four contests.

We scored convincing victories to retain both Bourassa and Toronto-Centre, while vaulting past the NDP in the western ridings of Provencher and Brandon-Souris to finish a vigorous second in both. In the latter, Liberal Rolf Dinsdale was less than 1.5 per cent from winning.

tled over conflicting interests.

While it was once said that everyone in urban Saskatchewan has one foot in rural Saskatchewan, anyway, the rapid growth of our cities compared with the on-going decline of rural towns and farms has made that a less common notion.

Certainly, the left-vs.-right battles in our province’s history are known to all – medicare, nationalization and privatization. And with the loss of a generation of people to Alberta, one can even notice a growing gap between young and old in the province.

Yet whatever differences there may between people in this province, there are these unbreakable bonds.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders are one. They mean a lot to this place. There is, of course, the weather and the landscape. We will always have our cold winters and broad horizons. There is our identity with agriculture, potash and now oil.

However, there is another bond that may be tougher to understand because it’s not

All-in-all, positive Liberal messages about hope and hard work, a more successful middle-class, and a more ambitious and inclusive Canada triumphed over the opposing campaigns of fear, personal abuse and division.

The message from the West is especially interesting. The Harper Conservatives can no longer take the prairies for granted. Western Liberals are capable of generating much improved outcomes, beyond anything seen in the past 20 years.

Justin Trudeau has significant appeal in the region. And the NDP are being surpassed as the prime alternative.

It’s clear that many voters are weary of a hyper-partisan government, in attack mode

all the time, constantly campaigning (often at taxpayers’ expense), and governing badly. They want the abuse to stop.

And their local Member of Parliament needs to be their faithful representative in Ottawa -not just another mouthpiece for the Prime Minister under the thumb of an all-too-powerful PMO. No doubt the stench of scandal engulfing the Harper regime played a powerful role in these by-elections. That concern is not restricted to the financial wrong-doing of certain Senators. It includes -- even more seriously -- an attempt to cover-up the behaviour of Mike Duffy in particular through a scheme touching virtually every senior person in Mr. Harp-

er’s inner circle.

The Prime Minister refuses to answer any direct and specific questions about what went on and why. Canadians are offended by the obvious and never-ending obfuscation.

Canadians are clearly in search of a better alternative.

They are more and more inclined to defeat and replace the Harper regime. Thomas Mulcair and the NDP are not seen as viable. But Justin Trudeau is emerging as the Leader a lot of voters in all parts of the country can warm up to.

They will be able to go to the polls in 2015 to vote for real change with enthusiasm and confidence.

Manufacturers creating global recognition Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sector - responsible for thousands of jobs, billions of dollars in exports and establishing the “Made in Saskatchewan” brand as a mark of quality around the world will be profiled this week with events around the province.

Saskatchewan Manufacturing Week, which wraps up November 29, showcases the province’s high-tech, globally-competitive manufacturing sector that is contributing, along with agriculture and resource production, to making the Saskatchewan’s economy one of the growth leaders in Canada.

“Thanks to the ingenuity and quality of the products our manufacturers are building and exporting, the Saskatchewan brand is highly competitive and increasingly well-established in the global marketplace,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. “As a province of traders who export roughly 80 per cent of what we manufacture, we are continually seeking new markets to keep growing our economy here at home, and these companies are at the very forefront of that effort.”

Manufacturing employs more than 27,000 people in highly skilled jobs throughout Saskatchewan and generated approximately $14.2 billion in shipments in 2012. September was a record-breaking month

ties, and has the largest economic multiplier of any sector - $3.15 for every dollar in total output. The nature of manufacturing is now global; fortunately, Saskatchewan manufacturers have already proven to be world class.”

Manufacturing Week is a partnership among the Ministry of the Economy, the Regina Regional Opportunities Commission, the Saskatoon Industry Education Council, the Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership and participating corporate sponsors.

for Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sales numbers, with a 9.0 per cent increase over August 2013, totalling $1.3 billion. These were the strongest figures yet for 2013 and put Saskatchewan in second place among the provinces.

“It’s no secret that manufacturing is central to the economic and social fabric of our province,” Saskatchewan Manufacturing Council Executive Director Derek Lothian said. “It provides stable, highpaying employment, drives investment in our communi-

Railways ordered to disclose dangerous goods cargo

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The federal government is implementing measures to require Canada’s major railway companies to list the type and quantity of dangerous goods that pass through urban neighbourhoods. Railways will also be required to share that information with Canadian cities.

That’s good news, because it’s something that municipalities have been wanting for a long time, says Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence.

In an interview November 21, the day the new federal measures were announced, Spence said it’s important that all urban centres know what types of dangerous cargoes are passing through their neighborhoods.

“It’s a step in the right direction,” she said. “Anytime there are dangerous goods being car-

ried by rail, you need to know what you’re dealing with in the event of an accident. People’s lives are at stake. Not just the residents who live near the tracks, but the lives and health of the emergency services personnel who are called on to respond to these events.”

The new federal measures were announced in Ottawa by Transport Minister Lisa Raitt at an event where she was flanked by representatives from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM).

Under the new order, railways must provide yearly information, divided by quarter, on the nature and volume of any dangerous goods transported by rail.

It would also require the companies to notify municipalities, as soon as possible, about any significant changes to the information. Smaller railways must

also provide annual information, but not necessarily quarterly breakdowns.

The new federal order was triggered by the disaster at Lac Megantic, Quebec, last summer, where a runaway train resulted in a fiery explosion that killed dozens of people and destroyed the centre of the town and spilled millions of litres of oil into the environment.

Raitt said the measures will provide fire departments and First Responders with the information they need to deal with emergency situations.

“Rail companies do provide information to municipalities but it’s not grounded in regulation and there’s no penalties should the provision of information not happen,” noted Raitt.

Spence said she’s optimistic the communication measures ordered by the federal government will help cities get the an-

swers they’ve been looking for.

She also hopes that railways won’t just provide the information to the major Canadian cities and exclude smaller cities like Warman.

“The government is admitting there needs to be disclosure of the cargoes that trains are carrying,” Spence said. “It’s too bad that it takes a tragedy before these sorts of things are done, but hopefully it will help prevent anything of that magnitude from happening again.”

Claude Dauphin, President of the FCM, said the new rules send a clear message that local governments need to know basic information about dangerous goods being transported through their communities.

“The Lac Megantic tragedy, and recent derailments in other parts of the country, have underscored the critical role that municipalities play in planning

for and responding to rail emergencies involving dangerous goods,” said Dauphin.

Debra Button, President of the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA), said the new regulations are a good start.

“There is still a long way to go if we are going to avoid tragedies like the one in Lac Megantic,” said Button.

“I look forward to working with FCM and the federal government to devleop improved regulations for railway operations, such as speed restrictions and tighter requirements for supervising parked locomotives.

I think we also need to consider how these regulations could be better enforced for improved compliance.”

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD

The Martensville Community Access Centre proudly hosted its fifth annual fundraiser “Are You Smarter than a Martensville 5th Grader?” on Saturday, November 16. The event attracted more than 115 guests and volunteers and featured a dessert buffet, local entertainment and the highlight of the evening, a live game show featuring local Grade 5 students and adult contestants.

The game show is modelled on the popular television show. (Photos submitted by Kristee Lynn Adrian)

The Warman Fire Department loaded up their trucks last Friday with 477 boxes filled with presents for underprivileged children overseas. The shoeboxes were donated by students from Warman Elementary School and Warman Community Middle School as part of Operation Christmas Child’s annual collection week. The shoeboxes are filled with toys, school supplies, hygiene items and personal notes from the students in Warman.

Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence said there have been some resumes come in, and she is optimistic a new EMO Coordinator will be appointed by the end of the year.

She noted it’s a volunteer position, and one that requires a lot of work. But she noted that Fahlgren laid a good foundation for an EMO plan for the community. She also pointed out that there is a strong component of regional cooperation.

“The City of Saskatoon is very good at involving the surrounding municipalities in its emergency measures training initiatives,” she said. “We have a responsibility to be prepared.”

Domination in Rider Nation Grey Cup comes home to Saskatchewan

RIDER INSIDER ROD PEDERSEN

Voice of the Riders Roughriders Radio Network

If this is a dream, don’t wake me up.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders captured the 101st Grey Cup championship with a 45-23 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats Sunday at Mosaic Stadium. Just like the week before, the score flattered their opponents.

While it seemed for most of the season that the Riders were on a collision course for their fourth CFL championship, it’s really hard to believe it has actually happened.

I mean, it never usual-

Fitness Tips

REMOVING TOXINS FROM THE LIVER

The most common claim is that a cleanse regimen detoxifies the liver. Well, I hate to burst your bubble but the liver is our detoxifying organ. There has been some claims that our liver gets clogged like an air conditioning filter and must be cleaned so it can continue to detox our system. There is NO evidence showing that a normal liver gets clogged with toxins, says hepatologist Nancy Reau, MD, an associate professor of medicine at the University of Chicago who happens to treat patients with cancer of the liver. Ms. Reau stated that the liver is a sophisticated filter. Everything you inhale, put on your skin or eat enters the bloodstream and is brought to the liver. It then generates specific enzymes to help remove things that are unhealthy or change them to a healthier form. The liver is self-cleaning; you have to give it good fuel in the form of healthy food.

PROS & CONS OF DETOXING

The upside of detoxing is that it cuts out bad eating habits and help the body eliminate waste more easily. Eating less processed foods and more plant foods means more fiber, more nutrients and fewer chemical additives.

Detoxing may help individuals forgo alcohol which they might otherwise drink.

Some people think that detoxing helps them mentally prepare to embark on a healthier way of eating. However, these individuals tend to go right back to their bad habits after the cleanse is over.

So, the belief that a detox can kick-start a healthier life maybe just a fantasy.

If you are using an occasional detox week to fix a chronic pattern of poor eating habits......WHAT’S THE POINT! A lifetime of good, healthy eating is going to be more effective than a sometime, short-term cleanse.

THE NATURAL WAY TO CLEANSE & DETOX - Drink plenty of water - Eat more organic plant foods - Exercise vigorously - Get more fiber by eating more plant foods - Omit or eat fewer animal foods (and choose only free-range, organic, etc., if you do) - Don’t smoke - Don’t drink alcoholic beverages - Avoid processed foods

Hepburn hosts provincial Boys’ 2A Volleyball finals

By WAYNE SHIELS

essenceofsask@gmail.com

The best 2A boys volleyball teams in the province competed in the Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association Provincial 2A Boys Volleyball Championship at Hepburn’s Bethany College on Friday, November 22 and Saturday, November 23.

Teams included Hepburn, Goodsoil, Ponteix, Edam, Muenster, Kahkewistahaw, Cudworth, Lashburn, Montmarte, Hazlet/Leader.

The event was hosted by Hepburn School. Organizer, Grade 8 teacher Ruth Smith, explained that it was Prairie Spirit School Division’s turn to host the provincials and since Hepburn was the only 2A school they were given a chance to host. Smith said Hepburn had hosted the Girls provincials in 2011 so this experience helped greatly in organizing for the boys tournament. She was thankful to the students and staff of Hepburn School and the many parents and people from the community who stepped to help with hosting the tournament.

Hepburn demonstrated smalltown Saskatchewan hospitality at its best. The facilities at Bethany College was perfect for the tournament as the gym allowed two games to be played simultaneously throughout the round robin and provided great seating for the many spectators in attendance.

Smith explained: “We have a working agreement with Bethany to share facilities. They use our gym for their sports camps in the summer and we use their facilities for tournaments and some practices.”

The level of volleyball was very high and the host Hepburn

Hawks played in some of the most exciting games. In their first game the Hawks took an early 11-9 lead over the Hazlet/Leader Lazers before the Lazers went on a rally to take a 16-13 lead. The teams battled to 20-20 and 22-22 ties before Hazlet/Leader took the set 25-22. This was only a warmup for the Hawks as they took complete took control of the match winning the second set 25-14 and the deciding set 25-13.

The Hawks dominated their next opponents the Cudworth Huskies beating them 25-12 and 25-13.

One of the best matches of the round robin came on Friday evening.when Hepburn played the Goodsoil Vikings.

The first set was back and forth with no team taking control. The Hawks were able buildup a 2320 lead, before the Vikings rallied back to take the set 27-25. The second set was more of the same with the great plays on both sides.

Hepburn gained some momentum in the match before a very boisterious crowd and took a 19-15 lead.

Again the opponents from the northwest battled back eventually winning the set 25-22.

Coach Ron Sigstad felt it was a well played game on both sides with lots of digging and good ball handling. While he felt it was unfortunate that the Hawks lost, it helped mentally prepare his team for what it takes to advance. He said, “That game helped humble us a bit to make sure we know what we have to do,” said Sigstad.

It was a very focused Hepburn team as they played their last game of the round robin against the Montmarte Eagles on Saturday morning. The Hawks easily

Hepburn Hawks #4 Carter Reddekopp with a spike over the block of Goodsoil’s Nathan Pliska beat the Eagles in two sets with identical scores of 25-18, good enough to give them 2nd seed for pool A going into the playoff round.

This momentum was carried into the first game of the playoffs against the Pontiex Predators.

The Hawks started strong and were never really challenged as they advanced with 25-16 and 2517 wins. The Predators could not handle the power hitting of Jesse Bushman and Gatlin Thiessen.

Also, one of the strengths of Hepburn was that Ponteix could not focus on one hitter as Josh Hiebert, Carter Reddekopp, and Robin Kohl also contributed with solid kills.

The semi-final game was a rematch against the Montmarte Eagles. In set 1 the Hawks started out slowly being down 11-4 before rallying back and eventually took the set 25-19. In set 2 the Hawks again could not get any momentum going and trailed 7-0 after 7 serves. To their credit they

battled back to tie the score at 1010. The gym was vibrating as the crowd encouraged their respective squads as the teams battled back and forth before the Eagles took the set 26-24.

The third set was a repeat with the Hawks getting down early and battling back before losing 26-24, sending Montmarte to the finals against Goodsoil.

Hepburn battled hard in the bronze medal game against Edam losing the first set 27-25, winning the second set 25-22 before losing the third set 25-18.

The Goodsoil Vikings defeated Montmarte in straight sets in the gold medal game to claim the provincial title. The Vikings, led by their captain and power hitter, Brett Shortman, had dominated the tournament, going undefeated and only losing two sets all weekend.

CAMELOT COMEDY Stage version of Mark Twain’s time-travel classic delights modern audience

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

A group of talented youngsters served up a timeless tale about time-travel to packed houses last weekend.

The Prairie Spirit Theatre Company, a drama club made up of home-schooled students aged 5 to 18 and their parents within the Prairie Spirit School Division, staged an adaptation of Mark Twain’s classic novel, “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” at the Brian King Centre in Warman November 22 and 23. Adapted for younger players and audiences, this version retained the main story line of Twain’s bitingly ironic novel (which first appeared in 1889), but toned down the bloodthirsty elements and threw in a few punchlines for the modern generation.

Aaron Hyland gave a strong performance as the central character, Hank Anderson, a confident, smart and somewhat cocky teenager who embodies a “can-do” Yankee attitude. After being magically transported to the court of the legendary King Arthur (played with a lofty innocence by Ethan Ens) and Queen Guenevere (the elegant Shailey Cara), Hank quickly becomes the real power behind the throne because his knowledge of astronomy, telephones, karate, motorcycles, soda pop and explosives is well beyond the grasp of the local poplulation, whose idea of science is based on waving a magic wand and hoping for the best.

The evil Queen, Morgan LeFey (portrayed in a deliciously menacing style by Elisa Cara) wears black lipstick, sports a razor-sharp dagger as a fashion accessory, and is determined to overthrow King Arthur. Her hench-lady is the cunning wizard Merlin (played by the wonderfully-expressive Tori Fehr),

whose political backroom maneuverings are more effective than her magician’s parlour tricks.

Havenne Kauenhofen is wellcast as the Jester - who always seems to be able to overhear conversations while being unobserved (a cool trick for someone with the most eye-catching costume). Nicholas Gilbey drew plenty of laughs as the chuckleheaded knight, Sir Sagamore, while Samuel Hildebrandt was convincingly overbearing in his dual role of Hercules and Sir Lancelot. Andrew Cara did a convincing job as Hank’s loyal assistant, Clarence.

Emilie Martin, Naomi Hildebrandt and Taylor Martin worked well together as elegant ladies-in-waiting, and Alyssa Hyland, a 5-year old rookie to the stage, was their pint-size counterpart.

Another first-timer, Ethan Hyland, stole the show in his one scene. He portrays a slave trader who has captured Hank and King Arthur while they are touring the countryside disguised as peasants. The little fellow only had one line.

But he had that line solid.

“Silence slaves, or you will taste the lash! Ha!” Brandishing a leather bullwhip bigger than himself, he snarled as he cracked his whip before letting go with his best effort at an evil laugh. Scary stuff indeed.

Director Shelley Gilbey and Stage Manager Teena Ens, who also designed the set, did a great job with the kids and fellow volunteers in staging the club’s sixth annual production.

Dear Residents: The purpose of our newsletter is to provide all residents in Warman, & area with information as to what is happening in business, sport and our community. We believe it is important that as a learning and highly-involved community we share this information with everyone. Please feel free to call Sarah (306-933-1830) or Heather (306-933-1929) if you have suggestions or information for our newsletter.

Message from Mayor Sheryl Spence and Council The Middle Years School hosted its Official Opening on Friday, November 15th. It was a very special ceremony to celebrate the opening of this new school. The students were very engaged in all parts of the morning. They entertained us with musical talent we really enjoyed. The students then showed their guests around the facility with such pride.

Thank you to all of you!

Warman will welcome a new City Manager.

Mr. Westby will join our team on January 2nd. He and his wife are excited to move to Warman and become fully involved in this vibrant community. Mayor Sheryl Spence and City Council are pleased to make this appointment of Stanley Westby as City Manager for Warman,

effective January 2, 2014. Stanley is a Chartered Accountant with strong financial skills and City Manager experience. Mr. Westby brings much experience and talents that will most certainly complement our current team.

A majority of Council attended the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit in November. It was well attended and our regional partners were well represented at this Summit. It is our hope Warman will be able to move ahead with Regional focuses when planning for our future. Now that our communities are growing quickly and also growing closer together, it is very important to have shared visions for the bigger and wider community. All of our Cities, Towns and RM’s do not want to lose our local autonomy. Warman is poised for an urban landscape growth pattern that is unprecedented. These are exciting times for all of us in this Province.

We would like to remind our readers that Sunday, December 1st is Warman’s annual Community Christmas Festival.

There is no admission, keep in mind a collection will be collected for community members who may be having financial struggles at this time. The entertainment presented that evening comes from many talented community members of all ages.

It surely is a great way to kick off to the festive season.

As always do not hesitate to call your Mayor or Council if you have questions, suggestions or just want to chat. We always welcome conversation with the residents of this great city.

From all your City Council, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a year of promise and good health.

A Town with a past. A City with a Future!

The Martensville Royals high school football team wrapped up their sixth season in style on Thursday, November 21, handing out their annual awards and honouring graduating players at the team’s annual year-end banquet.

“It was a great season and a positive experience,” said Royals’ head coach Lyle Evanisky.

“Everyone on the team contributed in their own way. For the coaches, the biggest reward was seeing the players grow and mature. They have become leaders on and off the field, and we’re very proud of the way they handle themselves. We got a lot of positive comments everywhere we played about what fine young men we have on this team.”

Brayden Heck was named the team’s Most Valuable Player and also took the award for Top Special Teams Player.

Devin Merriam took home the Most Dedicated Player award as well as the Top Offensive Player of the Year.

Josh DeCorby was given the award for Most Inspirational Player, and also earned top honours as Top Defensive Player of the Year.

Riley DeCorby was presented with the Rookie of the Year Award; Jordan Berry was named Lineman of the Year; and Brodey Kliewer took the award for Most Improved Player.

The graduating class of players this year includes Wallace Cole, Josh DeCorby, Devin Merriam, Jordan Berry and Teagan Haughn.

The team also paid tribute to community and parent volunteers, including team manager Della Muench, videographer Jesse Wilson and equipment managers Steven Ameer-beg and Clinton Friessen.

“There are many people who put in countless hours toward this team and the football program,” said Evanisky. “Without their support, this wouldn’t happen.”

Assistant coaches Chris Murrray, Brett Lambden and Shayne Hayward were on hand to help Evanisky hand out the awards and get in some comments about each of the winners. Assistant coaches Myles Loeffler, Rory Bergermann and Jason Young weren’t able to attend the event.

But the coaches weren’t the only ones at the podium.

2013. The Year of the Rider. And the demons of the 13th Man in the 2009 Grey Cup were unceremoniously kicked to the curb never to be thought of again.

The Ticats made no secret of the fact they felt disrespected during the week’s festivities, referring to Thursday’s CFL Awards as nothing more than a “Rider pep rally”. In the end, I’d love to know what they expected, coming into the heartland of the CFL? For now Chamblin doesn’t care. Nor should he. As he stood up from a remarkably brief postgame news conference, he muttered the only words that mattered.

Fury pick up OT victory

By HILARY KLASSEN

hilarylklassen@gmail.com

The Dalmeny Fury gave up an early lead of 2-0, to play catch up through two more periods of play, before beating the Tisdale Ramblers 9-8 in overtime Friday, November 22.

“Neither team played a very defensive game, it was definitely more of a run and gun style of a game,” said Dalmeny coach Darren (Woody) Wutzke. “We were fortunate to get the overtime winner.”

The winning goal was scored

by Dalmeny’s Robbie Holoien.

Early Dalmeny goals were scored by Dean Salzl and Shane Gimas. But penalties cost the Fury.

“We definitely have to stay out of the box,” said Wutzke af-

ter the first period. “It’s hurting us right now and definitely Tisdale has a good power play and they move the puck well and it’s cost us a couple goals.”

The Fury switched out their goalie in the second when Tisdale went up 5-3 after five minutes of play, replacing Kyle Yarski with Aaron Stock. The Fury managed to gain some ground over the next fifteen minutes.

Wutzke’s admonition to the team to “stay out of the box and play a little more disciplined,” had some effect, as the second period ended with a 7-7 tie.

Each team netted another goal in the third, sending them into overtime, dead even at 8-8.

For overtime, it goes to four on four. “We had to shorten the bench a little bit so that chang-

Bruno comes back to score overtime win over Warman

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Warman Wildcats played their best game of the season last Friday, November 22, but lost 3-2 in overtime to the visiting Bruno T-Birds.

“It’s disappointing, but the guys did well and we just didn’t get the breaks at the end,” said Wildcats coach Nathan Harms after the game. “I thought our goaltender was solid. He kept us in the game.”

It was the first game of the year for the Wildcats’ starting goalie, Kevin Dzaiduck, but he looked calm in the face of a barrage of shots from the Bruno snipers, especially in the second period. Bruno outshot Warman 26 to 17 in the game.

Bruno took an early 1-0 lead

on a goal by Brandon Tkatch in the first period. But Warman evened things up and then took the lead in the third period on goals by Justin Llnd and Tim Thiessen. Bruno’s Brodie Welsh scored the tying goal late in the third to send the game into overtime, and Lee Huber potted the winner for the visitors on a power play after Warman took two penalties in a row.

Warman is preparing for a rematch against Bruno this Friday, November 29, when the two teams play in Wakaw. Game time is 8:30 p.m..

Warman is slated to take on the Tisdale Ramblers in Wakaw on Friday, December 6 at 8:00 p.m.

The Wildcats play the Royals in Hague on Friday, December 13 at 8:30 p.m.

es your line set-up a little bit,” said Wutzke.

It’s the first win of the season for the Dalmeny Fury.

The team is adjusting to some changes in the roster.

“There are quite a few new faces, so some of them are still learning each other and the systems we’re trying to run,” said Wutzke. “It’s going to take a little time but it’s coming.”

Wutzke has coached the Fury before and jumped in again for this season at the request of manager Stew Block. “It was

a collective effort,” he said. “It could have gone either way; both teams were having chances. We squeaked her out.”

The whole team went over to the manager’s house after the game to celebrate the win.

“Everybody showed up and celebrated the first win,” said Wutzke. “Hopefully we’re turning a new page and will continue in winning ways.”

Dalmeny’s next home game is this Friday, November 29 versus the Hague Royals. Game time is 8:30 p.m.

Outlaws double Royals The Prairie Outlaws doubled the host Hague Royals 6-3 in Fort Carlton Hockey League action on Friday, November 22.

Hague jumped out to an early 3-0 lead, scoring all three of their goals in the first five minutes of the game. Jesse Mireau, Tyler Karst and Nathan McNaught accounted for the Royals’ goals.

But the Outlaws rallied late in the first period on goals by

Jordan Menke and Torey Stott.

After T.J. Hiebert tied the game in the second frame, the wheels fell off the bus for Hague. Stott scored his second of the night, and Kelly Friesen added a pair before the second intermission. There was no scoring in the final period.

The Royals’ next game is Saturday, November 30 when they host the Rosthern Wheat Kings.

Game time is 8:30 p.m.

Last fall, we were able to provide Prairie Spirit with over $650,000 midyear to support their growing enrolments. This is the first time that’s ever been done.

Our communities are growing and we are working hard to make sure our students have schools. I want to thank the teachers in our division for their ingenuity for making our current schools work while new ones are built. My Dad was a teacher and I have seen first hand how much work is done after hours and behind the scenes; our teachers deserve our thanks for all they do.

Metro Vancouver shows how regional cooperation can work

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The lower mainland region of British Columbia is one of the most densely-populated areas of Canada, with roughly 2.3 million residents.

That represents over half the population of the province.

There are an average of 735 people per square kilometer, and they all live in 22 municipalities of varying sizes, crammed into a 2,877 square-kilometer geographic area enclosed by a mountain range to the east, an ocean to the west, and the US border to the south.

And while the City of Vancouver is the best-known of the urban centres that bump up against each other, it’s just one voice at a regional council table known as the Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD), otherwise known as Metro Vancouver.

INTER-CITY CONTRACT

“Metro Vancouver is essentially a contract between municipal governments,” according to Derek Corrigan, Mayor of Burnaby and a Director of GVRD. “The board of GVRD is made up of elected local government representatives from all the municipalities. It’s us governing ourselves.”

With 22 municipalities, one electoral area and one treaty First Nation included in the GVRD, the need to cooperate on regional issues and infrastructure is obvious, said Corrigan.

“Our history of regional cooperation actually started back in 1914, when several mu-

nicipalities took over the distribution of water from a private company,” said Corrigan.

“They made it a publc utility and took on the responsibility of providing high quality water for residents. That’s where it started, and it is still responsible for water and sewer.”

The GVRD was formally created by provincial legislation in 1967. It receives its funding from utility levies, as well as property taxes to fund public recreation facilities like parks.

It also has responsibility for solid waste collection and disposal, land use planning and air quality.

These are all areas where individual municipalities have given up some of their authority and vested it in the GVDR for the benefit of the entire region, said Corrigan.

“This contract provides guidance so each municipality conducts its affairs to ensure our region grows and uses resources in an efficient and sustainable way,” he said.

STRATEGIC PLAN

While it had a low profile in its early years, Metro Vancouver’s visibility increased in 1996 when it unveiled a “liveable region strategic plan” that garnered several international awards.

That plan received unanimous consent of all the municipalities in the region, which was a “tremendous accomplishment,” said Corrigan. “All of us agreed we were prepared to give up a degree of autonomy to ensure we were working together for the interests of all our cit-

izens.”

He said there are three basic roles that Metro Vancouver serves: service delivery, regional-scale planning; and policy and regulation.

UTILITY SHARING

Metro Vancouver, for example, is responsible for water distribution pipelines, but each municipality determines how it meters and charges for water to its own residents and businesses. It’s the same scenario with things like solid waste collection, he noted. Some municipalities use civic employees, while others contract out. With sewage, each muncipalty is resonsible for its own primary treatment, but secondary treatment is shared by all municipalities within the region.

The “tipping point” in determining what services are done regionally is simple, said Corrigan. “If the region can do it cheaper and more efficiently, then it makes sense.”

But in addition to the concrete benefits of having utlity distribution lines run smoothly across municipal boundaries, there’s the added benefit of being a larger player on the provincial and national political scene, said Corrigan.

litical forum for community issues at the regional level. We try to engage people on issues important to their city and to their region.”

He said Metro Vancouver represents over half the population of BC, while the BC Union of Municipalities essentially represents areas of the province beyond the lower mainland.

POLITICAL ADVOCACY

FAIRNESS IN VOTING

“When it comes to political advocacy, the bigger you are, the better you’re heard,” said Corrigan. “You’re far more powerful together when you are talking to the provincial or federal government than you are alone. At the level of Metro Vancouver, we are the main po-

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Derek Corrigan, Burnaby Mayor and a Director of the Greater Vancouver Regional District.

He was a keynote speaker at the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit last week.

Corrigan said while larger municipalities have more weighted votes in the GVRD, no one urban centre is dominant.

“Vancouver only accounts for one-quarter of the region,” said Corrigan. “It isn’t able to set the overall agenda. It’s a matter

of give and take among everybody.”

URBAN CONTAINMENT

He noted that because of the small land base in the region, there are definite outward limits on each city. “We have lines of urban containment,” said Corrigan. “This is a critical element to what we’re doing because it determines how far we are able to build out from the existing centre. We’ve opted to increase housing density because we’re not going to allow development to sprawl in to areas where we can’t service it where our infrastructure will be stretched.”

Those urban containment boundaries are also an impor-

tant element in protecting valuable park areas, green spaces, conservation districts and farmland, said Corrigan.

The one area where the region doesn’t have jurisdiction is transportation planning. Corrigan said that responsibility was taken away by the province several years ago, and the region is trying to regain it.

While he said it is always a challenge to achieve consensus within the regional governance structure, it’s worth it.

“People in our region don’t realize where one city ends and another one starts,” he said. “They expect that we’re all working together, and we need to deliver on their expectations.”

Private sector, governments need to work together: Dube

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Saskatoon region needs a “new paradigm” that involves better communication and cooperation between the public and private sectors, says David Dube, President and CEO of Concorde Group Corporation.

Speaking at the Saskatoon Regional Growth Summit last week, Dube said the Saskatoon

region is one of the most attractive investment sites in North America, and his diversified company is shedding assets in other parts of the world to focus specifically on this area.

But at the present time, he said, it’s difficult for private investors to judge their level of risk here because the ground rules are constantly shifting.

“The current paradigm values process over progress,” said Dube. “The public sector

is perceived as process-oriented, while the private sector is progress-oriented. There’s also an outdated perception that the private sector is there to exploit the public. The reality is that the private sector is helping to build the economy and create jobs, and government also has an important role to play in providing public services.”

INTER-DEPENDENCE

Dube said it is time to realize

there is an “inter-dependence” and that both private and public sectors are important. He said this is a critical time in the region’s history, and the current economic boom provides an opportunity to “bridge the chasm” and bring everyone together around the table.

“I’m a free-market capitalist, but I believe in good government,” said Dube.

gether and like the pioneers did a century ago, make our dreams a reality in this povince. But we have to have a fundamental commitment to cooperation in order to be successful, and generate revenue for everyone. It has to be a winwin scenario.”

OPPORTUNITY FOR PROFIT Dube said developers see an opportunity to generate revenue, and are willing to invest,

but they need governments at all levels to provide certainty and stability in regard to regulations.

“We get enough instability and volatility in the marketplace,” he said. “We recognize that and expect that. That’s where the risk comes in. But we can’t have risk on both sides of the equation. It won’t work for the region and the growth plan if there is a lack of certainty.”
