Justin Miller of Bassano, Alberta gets a face full of good old western mud during the steer wrestling event at the 21st annual Warman Diamond Rodeo last Saturday. A day-long soaker made a mess of the rodeo arena, but at least the sloppy ground gave the competitors a little softer landing.

Firefighters were called to extinguish a fire in a garbage dumpster Tuesday afternoon, June 4, on Martens Crescent in Warman. The dumpster was next to the house when it caught fire and nearby workers used a zoom boom to move the container before any further damage could be caused to the house. Two units responded to the blaze and firefighters were on the scene for an hour. Firefighters believe the fire was started by a cigarette that was tossed into the dumpster.

A 62-year-old man was transported to hospital in Saskatoon for treatment of non-life threatening injuries following a collision at Marquis Drive and Highway 16 on Wednesday, June 5.

At approximately 2:38 p.m, a truck was making a left-hand turn from Marquis Drive onto Highway 16 when it failed to yield to a motorcyclist traveling westbound on Highway 16.

The 30-year-old driver of the truck was issued a ticket under the Traffic Safety Act for failing to yield to an approaching vehicle when turning left.

Hammering it home

High growth rates continue for residential construction in area communities

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The City of Warman is on pace to build even more houses than last year.

According to statstics supplied by Municode, a building and fire code inspection company contracted by a number of area municipalities including Warman, the number of building permits issued so far this year for single-family and multi-family units is similar to 2012.

A total of 108 building permits for single-family dwelling units were issued for Warman as of May 31, 2013. The total value of these permits was over $26.35 million. There were also 18 permits for multi-family dwellings with a value of $10.5 million and 11 commercial and institutional building permits with a value of $5.5 million.

That’s on pace with the construction activity last year, which was hampered by unusually wet weather during the spring and summer months.

Between January 1 and June 30, 2012, a total of 158 new single family homes were started.

With several new neighbourhoods coming on stream, including two in the north end and one in the south, the sound of construction activity rarely stops in the city whose population is expected to approach 8,000 by the end of the year.

Martensville, meanwhile, is recording a spike in commercial and industrial buildings, according to Bonnie Gorelitza, Director of Planning for the

Cities tackle mosquito menace at the source Regular monitoring and treatment of standing water help keep the mosquito population under control

By EMMA HENLEY emma@ccgazette.ca

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Construction of single-family homes, like this one in the Southlands neighbourhood in Warman, is on pace to meet or exceed last year’s numbers City of Martensville.

“There is a lot more activity in that area this year than we’ve seen in the past,” she said. “Things are really starting to take off.”

As of the end of May, Martensville has issued building permits for 41 new single-family homes, eight commercial buildings and one school structure. The total value for all these buildings is $10.5 million, according to statistics posted on the City of Martensville website.

Smaller communities in the

region are also experiencing growth, although at a less dramatic pace, according to Municode, which also handles building inspections for several towns and RMs. The Town of Aberdeen has so far issued three permits for single-family dwellings, worth a combined total of $540,100.

The Town of Dalmeny has seen eight new single-family units begin construction, worth a total of $2.3 million.

The Town of Langham has issued four building permits for single-family homes worth

a combined total of $852,600, as well as one commercial building with a value of $60,000.

In the RM of Corman Park, building permits issued as of May 31 included 13 for singlefamily dwellings with a combined value of $6.5 million; and 12 commercial building permits with a total value of $30.3 million. The RM of Aberdeen has seen 14 building permits issued worth a total of $6.03 million. The RM of Rosthern issued building permits for 13 single-family homes with a total value of $3.46 million.

Construction restarts on new Highway 305 Construction work is resuming on the new Highway 305 between Warman and Martensville.

Work on the project was initiated last January with construction of the roadbed. The work was done during the winter months while the ground was frozen, and was temporarily halted during the spring thaw.

Now that conditions have sta-

bilized with less surface water running, the work is able to get underway. The project includes the upgrading of Range Road 3053 on Martensville’s eastern edge. Another major project in the area is an upgarde to Highway 14 west of Saskatoon

WATCH FOR WORKERS

Motorists are reminded to watch for workers and equipment when they head out on

the highway as construction continues to pick up steam in Saskatchewan.

“We’re seeing work starting to ramp up, with 10 new projects underway this week,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris said.

“Drivers need to be mindful of work zones as we enter the busy summer season. Slowing to 60 km/hr is the law and helps us ensure that the impor-

tant work of maintaining our transportation system is carried out safely.”

Drivers must slow to 60 km/ hr in work zones or face fines starting at $300.

The weekly construction update provides Saskatchewan residents with the latest details on projects underway to help to plan safe and efficient travel throughout the summer and fall.

natural predator of mosquitoes.

It is not toxic to humans or to other animals, such as dogs or cats.

“If you should decide to drink the water, you would be in no danger from the VectoBac. However, you probably wouldn’t want to drink it anyway,” McGonigal adds with a chuckle.

Warman and Martensville treat the water in their immediate vicinity, and up to a kilometre in the surrounding area.

Lack of government funding means they can treat no further, though McGonigal and Bosch have expressed the desire to do so.

“We would like to be able to treat more of the surrounding area given the dangers posed by mosquitoes carrying West Nile Virus, but we simply haven’t got the funds for it,” said McGonigal.

As is, the program is doing all it can to eliminate sources of standing water.

“We’ve been making sure there’s proper drainage,” said

Saskatchewan’s national bird, the mosquito, has fewer places to breed this year than years previously.

“Due to the way spring played out this year we’ve had a lot less standing water,” said Paul McGonigal, Recreation and Community Services Manager in Warman, in a recent interview. “Less standing water means fewer places for mosquito larvae to hatch.”

McGonigal and Dave Bosch, Director of Recreation and Community Services in Martensville, started their mosquito program towards the end of April, and it will run through the summer until October.

“Essentially, we’ll be monitoring potential breeding grounds for mosquito larvae,” said Bosch, on Monday June 2. “We’ll dip for mosquito larva and we’ll treat those areas of standing water which have prevalent populations.”

Dipping involves taking a sample of water from an identified mosquito breeding ground and counting the number of larvae present.

Warman anti-dumping bylaw aims to clean alleys

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The City of Warman is cracking down on people who dump trash and yard waste in the alleys.

“It’s actually getting pretty serious,” said Wade Eberle, Bylaw Enforcement Officer for the

City of Warman. “There are all kinds of stuff piling up in alleyways, and it’s making it very difficult for city public works crews to keep the alleys graded and maintained.”

Eberle said he’s hoping to make people aware of the problem, and encourage them to take action on their own.

Martensville open house showcases projects, plans The City of Martensville is hosting an open house next week aimed at showcasing the city’s progress and plans for 2013.

The open house is slated for Tuesday, June 18 at the North Ridge Centennial Community Centre Dillon Shewchuk, Economic Development Officer for the City of Martensville, said in a news release on June 10 that the open house provides residents with an opportunty to meet the new mayor and councilors who make up city council, as well as get updates on civic and commercial development projects that are currently underway or in the planning stages.

“As our city grows and changes, the open house provides residents with an opportunity to learn more about some of the projects and initiatives we’re working on and to provide their input, ideas and feedback,” said Martensville Mayor Kent Muench. “It’s also tied in to our ongoing efforts to engage residents and encourage them to become more involved in what goes on in our city.”

Muench said that by engaging residents and being as open and transparent as possible in its decision-making, Martensville city council is committed to building “one of the greatest

small cities in western Canada in which to live.”

The open house will feature displays by the Martensville RCMP detachment, the Prairie Spirit School Division and Greater Catholic School Division, the Martensville branch of the Wheatland Regional Library, and the Martensville Community Access Centre.

Shewchuk said residents are encouraged to attend the event and bring along their families.

“There will be door prizes, balloons for the kids, and free barbecue burgers and drinks,” he said.

The biggest problem is piles of grass clippings, leaves and tree branches, as well as just plain old junk, said Eberle.

“The City of Warman has an ‘anti-dumping bylaw’ that specifies property owners need to ensure their property is clean, even in the alleys,” said Eberle.

The bylaw states that “no person shall dump or dispose or cause to be dumped or disposed any waste” on city property, “on the boundary of any lane abutting any property within the city”, or on private property within the city unless permission has been received in writing from the owner.

Any material that is banned by any other city bylaw or provincial law is also prohibited.

Penalties for dumping include a fine of not less than $100 and not more than $500 for a first offence. Subsequent offences have fines ranging from $200 to $1,000. Violators are required to clean up the site as well as pay the fine.

Eberle said the city recently had public works crews pick up trash along alleys as part of the spring cleanup. There is another cleanup scheduled for the fall, but that’s a long way off, he

Warman Osler Skating Club

Registration Night

noted.

“People need to realize they can’t just dump stuff in the alley any old time,” he said. “Beginning this week, I’ll be stopping by houses where there is a problem, and notifying the home owners. If it’s not cleaned up, people can expect to be facing a fine.”

Eberle said the City of Warman has two green bins on North Railway Street that are specially designed for grass clippings , small tree branches and other yard waste. There is no charge for residents to use the bins, he noted.

“The grass clippings should be brought to the bins in bags, but only the contents should be dumped into the bins,” he said.

“The plastic bags should then be deposited in a red garbage bin nearby.”

The yard waste should be small enough to fit through the openings in the side of the green bins,” said Eberle.

“The bins are dumped regularly. If we need to get more bins to handle the amount of waste, then we will do that. But it’s important to make sure the waste is not simply dumped in the alleys.”

Canadians believe in the old adage “give a hand-up, not a hand-out.”

Yet, each year Saskatchewan and other provinces deemed by the federal government to be wealthy – the “haves” – are forced to give billions of dollars in handouts to provinces deemed to be less wealthy – the “have not’s.” This occurs through the federal government’s $16 billion (per year) Equalization program. (Photo Premier Brad Wall:Wikipedia/DanielPaquet) It’s basically a big welfare program between provinces that aims to help recipient provinces provide similar services as provinces that are considered wealthy like Saskatchewan.

However, ‘deemed to be’ less wealthy is not necessarily a reflection of reality.

For example, according to Equalization program rules, Quebec is deemed to be a “have not” province.

Meanwhile, it is sitting on massive quantities of undeveloped resources such as natural gas.

Under perverse Equalization program rules, Quebec has a disincentive to aggressively develop those resources as doing so would increase its ‘fiscal capacity,’ (ability to pay for more of its own programs) and therefore decrease the cash it receives from Equalization.

In fact, their separatist premier, Pauline Marois, recently posted a video to the Parti Québécois website where she states: “If one day, we produce oil and gas in Quebec, why would we let half of this wealth go down the road to Ottawa?” (Translated) While Quebec continues to sit on significant resource opportunities, one resource it has developed – its vast supply of hydroelectric power – falls outside of the Equalization formula and isn’t taken into consideration by Ottawa. As a result, the province regularly sells power to Quebec residents below its true market value; reducing revenues and decreasing power conservation in the process.

The situation is akin to the government of Alberta deciding to start a gas station company and selling gas to Albertans for $0.75 per litre rather than the going market price.

While Quebec sells power below market rates and sits on resource opportunities, it offers its citizens many benefits that other “have” provinces do not provide; highly subsidized post-secondary education and day care to name a couple. Needless to say, many taxpayers in Saskatchewan wonder why they’re paying for such luxuries in another province?

Make no mistake, the problems with the Equalization program go far beyond Quebec. Whether it’s Manitoba devaluing its hydroelectric power or some Atlantic provinces being encouraged to keep their debt loads high for bonus Equalization payments, the Equalization program needs serious reform.

Who better to champion reform during 2014 negotiations for the program than the province of Saskatchewan?

After all, Saskatchewan has been both a recipient and a contributor to equalization within the past decade. Premier Wall would be on solid footing to discuss the disincentives in the program that contributed to holding Saskatchewan back for so long.

Fortunately, he has already been vocal about concerns with the status quo. What needs to happen next is for the premier to take a leadership role in working with other premiers of “have” provinces to be just as vocal in pushing for reform as other premiers are pushing against.

If he doesn’t, and the voices defending the status quo continue to chirp louder than the rest, be prepared for the federal government to keep Canada’s Equalization program as the nation’s largest hand-out.

Provincial Politics

Admittedly, this has largely been the success formula for the Saskatchewan Party, which has enjoyed the added luxury of governing during perhaps the best economic period in the province’s history.

In fact, 2008 was the best economic year Saskatchewan has seen – a stark contrast to what the rest of the country was going through. Some might go so far as to argue this is why Premier Brad Wall has delivered better government than Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

But the reason why Harper’s Conservatives are in trouble today has precious little to do with the dip in 2008 that they actually weathered rather well.

The difference between the Wall and Harper administra-

compass by a Conservative government that was elected largely because of the sponsorship scandal in which Liberals demonstrated their own self-interest outweighing the interests of the voters that elected them.

That we would see this misspending and cover-ups from Conservatives in the Senate – the place Harper once called a haven for Liberal partisans that he intended to reform through elections and accountability – is almost shocking.

Consider the fact that Duffy and Wallin were not long-serving Conservative fund-raisers being awarded for years of contribution to the party. Harper appointed them to Senate so they could become Conservative bagmen.

Is this how Conservatives envisioned Senate reform? Did anyone believe this is what Stephen Harper stood for 10 years ago?

How badly Harper and Conservatives have lost sight of whose interests they represent can best be summed up by former Triple-E advocate Bert Brown, who said in an interview that Conservative Senators don’t even bother to at-

tempt to represent the interests of their province.

“They just follow what their party’s leadership tells them to do, Brown told the Huffington Post website. “I was there for five years and eight months and we voted everything that was voted to the Conservative government – every one. There was one guy who said who wanted to abstain once.”

It was rare honest admission of the problems in federal Conservative ranks, albeit one that has come a little too late and is salted with a lot of hypocrisy.

It was also Brown who also offered this view of the Senate two years ago: “Every senator in this caucus needs to decide where their loyalty should be and must be,” Brown wrote. “The answer is simple; our loyalty is to the man who brought us here, the man who has wanted Senate reform since he entered politics, the Rt. Hon. Stephen Harper.”

Essentially, this is the problem. Harper, Conservatives and their appointees bought in the mindset that political interests come first.

They’ve forgotten the most basic lesson in governance.

Reader Opinions

Irradiation of beef a bad idea According to Canada Press, and other newspapers, the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association (CCA) wants the Federal Government to approve the irradiation of beef (supposedly to kill dangerous E-Coli). Irradiation is a process by which a food product is exposed to high doses of radiation to kill bacteria, parasites, and mold. In the U.S. three types of ionizing radiation are permitted: gamma rays, high-energy electrons and X-rays. I am told that both Xrays and gamma rays involve high energy photons which, when they strike a molecule, can disrupt that molecule. All kinds of other molecules can be created which may or may not

tion goes back to what each should have learned in governance 101 about being elected to serve the people’s interests and not your own.

Except for a few notable bumps, Wall’s provincial government has consistently left the impression in its six years that the public need comes first. Few would describe Harper’s federal government in that way right now.

And nowhere is this more evident that Harper’s handling of the Senate.

The issues here goes well the ethics of either Senators Mike Duffy or Pamela Wallin claiming tens of thousands of dollars to which they likely were not entitled. (Although, it is sad to see a stand-up individual like Wallin caught in her expense travel quagmire.)

The issue isn’t even so much Duffy secretly getting a $90,000 cheque from Harper’s well-heeled former chief-ofstaff Nigel Wright. (Although, the old saying that it’s not the crime but the cover up that tends to get you in trouble in politics.)

Doug O’Halloran, president of the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 401, says the processing line at the XL Foods Lakeside plant in Brooks moves too quickly. Between 300 and 320 carcasses go by workers every hour and employees make between 3000 and 4000 cuts a shift which has resulted in considerably less time in which to make sure knives are sanitized after each cut.

Dr. Patricia Whisnant, a graduate of the University of Tennessee College Of Veterinary Medicine (1981) states that “60% of the largest United States meat plants failed to meet federal food safety regulations for preventing E. Coli bacteria in their products”. What are the stats in Canada?

As Whisnant states “Irradiation may provide an excuse not to tackle the real sources and practices responsible for the contamination of beef…main-

ly the filth in the confined environment of the feedlot and the fecal contamination that occurs in the high speed slaughter facility.” As Whisnant further states “Our efforts in the meat industry should be aimed at removing the filth from the source, not just making cow manure safer to eat ” Source (Clean Beef or irradiated Dirty Beef? A Veterinarian’s Perspective) While the CCA says its proposal calls for irradiated beef to be clearly labeled, irradiation is just a band-aid on the problem.

It is better to deal with the origins of the problem and not irradiate at all.

Submitted by

SGT. WARREN GHERASIM Warman RCMP

On June 6 at 12:40 p.m. police were conducting radar enforcement on Highway 16 near Mierau Rd., west of Saskatoon, when an eastbound vehicle was observed speeding at 150 km/h in the 110 km/h zone. The vehicle was stopped by police and the driver interviewed. While the officer was dealing with the driver, the strong odour of marijuana was detected in the vehicle. The man admitted that a friend had smoked marijuana in the vehicle days earlier. A search of the vehicle was conducted and approximately 40 grams of marijuana was located in the console of the vehicle.

A 34-year-old Saskatoon man was arrested for possession of a controlled substance. He was later released to appear in Provincial Court.

IMPAIRED DRIVERS NABBED

On June 3 at 10:42 p.m.

RCMP were contacted by a motorist who had observed a vehicle being operated erratically on Highway 12 north of Martensville. A northbound Chev Malibu was reported to be weaving in and out of traffic.

Police patrolled into the area and located the vehicle stopped at the side of the road with another motorist. The vehicle had been driven by a 30-year-old female from the Waldheim area.

The woman displayed signs of intoxication from alcohol and was arrested by police and returned to the police detachment where she provided breath samples that were in excess of the legal limit. The woman was released a short while later on impaired driving charges. She is scheduled to appear in Saskatoon Provincial Court.

On June 4 at 9:00 p.m. police received a call from a concerned person of a possible

MARTENSVILLE COLLISION

On June 4 at 2:00 p.m. police received a call of a two-vehicle collision at the main entrance to Martensville and Highway 12. Police, fire and EMS all responded. A white Honda Civic had collided with a Highways Ministry vehicle and one man was injured and had to be transported to hospital with injuries. The matter continues to be investigated. No determination has been made on charges.

YOUTH UTTERS THREATS

On June 5 at 11:46 a.m. police were contacted by the Warman High School about the behaviour of a student. It was communicated to police that words were uttered to a staff member by a student that were threatening in nature to a member of the school faculty. Police attended and arrested a 16-year-old male for uttering threats. The youth was released a short while later on conditions not to have contact with the subject of his threats or to attend at the school. The matter is scheduled to be heard in Youth Court.

INDECENT EXPOSURE

On June 5 at 6:00 p.m. police received a call to a residence on 2nd Avenue South in Martensville. The complainant advised that she observed a young teenaged male in her backyard with his pants down. She reported that the youth was fully exposed and appeared to be intoxicated. The suspect is described as approximately 14-years-old, wearing a red and yellow shirt with red shorts and had black hair. Upon discovery, the youth fled down the alley away from the residence. Police are attempting to identify the suspect.

patient who showed up for an appointment in an intoxicated condition and refused to leave. Police attended and located the woman who was the subject of the complaint. Police observed the woman to be intoxicated and removed her from the premises. The woman, a 47-year-old Martensville resident, was issued an offence notice for being intoxicated in a public place. The woman was taken home by police.

OSLER THEFTS

On June 5 police received six reports of thefts that had occurred from vehicles parked in Osler. The vehicles were entered by thieves in the early morning hours and glove box contents were gone through and some small items were reported stolen. Police are investigating some leads that sur-

faced from these incidents. The public is reminded to always lock unattended vehicles and never leave valuables in your car. Items such as spare keys and garage door openers provide thieves with access to your home and should not be left accessible in vehicles.

Local air cadets take top awards in power, glider aircraft training courses

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Flight Sergeant (FSgt) Daegan Banga, an air cadet from Grandora, has earned the distinction of being the top power pilot in the cadet program in Saskatchewan.

Banga has also been accepted into the Canadian Armed Forces, and is set to start his pilot training this summer.

And one of his colleagues from Saskatoon, Warrant Officer Second Class (WO2) Josh Hubbs, has distinguished himself with being the top air cadet glider pilot in the province.

The two cadets are members of 702 Lynx Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, based in Saskatoon.

“It’s quite an achievement on the part of those these young men,” said Captain Darcy Parker of Delisle, the former Commanding Officer of 702 Lynx Wing. “When you consider the number of cadets, and the limited spots available for our squadron, they’ve done our squadron proud.”

Parker, who retired from the post of Commanding Officer of the squadron last weekend at their annual ceremonial review, said the cadet program has been running in Canada since the end of the First World War, and is a “great youth development program.”

He said air cadets focus on training young people both male and female - to obtain their pilots licenses while learning the basics of leadership, citizenship, survival training, marksmanship and biathlon. There are currently over 50,000 young people between the ages of 12-18 years enrolled in the program.

Parker went through the Cadet program himself before entering a career as an avionics technician with the Canadian Armed Forces. When he retired from the military, he opted to devote time to helping with the Cadet program.

“They rotate the commanding officer position every three years,” he said. “My three years was up, and the mantle was turned over to Captain Ivy Armstrong.”

Parker is a member of the Delisle Fire Department, and said while he’s always wanted to learn to fly, it never happened. “My son, who’s in cadets, has spent more time in a CF-18 than I’ve had in my 14 years with the Canadian Forces,” he said with a grin.

Thank You! The Aberdeen Rec Complex would like to send a Thank You to Affinity Credit Union for a $3,100 grant, for upgrades & repairs to their refridgeration plant.

POWER PILOT

Banga earned his glider license two years ago at age 16 and then got his private pilots license last year when he was 17.

He recommends the cadet program for young people wanting to learn to fly. “It’s been a great experience,” Banga said in an interview. “It changed my life - not just aviation-wise, but in terms of lifeskills as well. I’ve learned to be a lot more articulate because I teach classes to other cadets.”

Banga was also a member of the Saskatchewan biathlon team which competed in Valcartier, Quebec last winter.

The Station Arts Centre Rosthern, SK presents

GLIDER PILOT

WO2 Josh Hubbs is preparing to head to summer camp at the Netook Gliding Centre where he’ll be introducing gliding to younger cadets.

“When you’re in the sky, there are no limits,” said Hubbs. “I used to go flying with my grandfather when I was younger. That’s what attracted me to air cadets in the first place.”

Hubbs is hoping to get his power pilots license next summer, but he says there’s a lot to be learned from gliders.

“Gliding is true flying,” he said. “You are almost one with the glider, and you can feel every movement of the plane.

When you adjust a lever, there’s an immediate response. Even shifting your weight can make a difference.”

Cultivating civic pride A volunteer gardener is growing a tradition of beauty along Martensville’s main commercial thoroughfare

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

It all started about a decade ago with a couple of leftover shrubs that Leslie Landru had laying around her house.

“I asked the guy who owned a local gas station on Centennial Drive if I could plant them in front of his property - just to make things look a little nicer,” said Landru. “That was before there were any trees or plants or anything along this road.”

Those two little shrubs were hard to pick out at first, lost as they were in a sea of pavement and gravel and concrete. But once they started to take root, so did the idea of branching out to encompass the entire business district.

“I talked it over with Dave Bosch, the Recreation and Parks Director for what was at the time the Town of Martensville, and decided to try and spruce up more of the properties along Centennial Drive.”

A short-lived “Beautification Committee” was formed in 2006, and the members, which included Landru and her husband Scott as well as her neighbour Della Muench, planted all the trees that currently add to the character of the busy commercial artery.

The committee gradually petered out in the intervening years, but Landru has kept the tradition going by planting flowers and shrubs every spring and tending them faithfully all summer long in her spare time.

It’s a big commitment, but she says it’s worth it. Not only does it make a big difference in the city’s appearance to residents and visitors, it also fulfills her passion for horticultural pursuits.

“It’s a lot of work, for sure,” said Landru with a smile as she took a break from weeding a patch of flowers in front of Martensville’s civic centre building last week. “But I wouldn’t do it if I didn’t love it.”

Landru buys all the seeds for the flowers and starts them in the spring in a greenhouse in her backyard. The

She has a few helpers including Della Muench and her daughter Megan Muench, as well as her husband, but most of the time, she’s on her own.

“I keep all my receipts, except for things like gas and so on,” she said. “I submit the bills for the seeds and the city pays me back. I’ve been doing this now for about ten years, and it’s at the point now where I think it’s making a big difference. Lots of people stop by and say they appreciate what I’m doing. If they feel like helping me dig out the weeds, I’m okay with that too.”

Landru also starts the flowers that are planted in the 35 hanging pots in the main business district of Martensville.

She says she’s happy the city administration has opted to have civic employees water the plants through the week. The installation of underground

sprinklers on the city property in front of the civic centre is also a good thing, she said.

“I started watering everything with a little jug when we first started out,” she said. “And then I bought a 50-gallon container and a Honda pump and we did the watering seven days a week. The watering alone took over two hours a day, and with all the watering and weeding and planting, it really did take a lot of effort. I maintain the shrubs and cut them and fertilize them and put some compost around them. It’s nice to have those underground sprinklers now.”

Landru says she tries to make the flower arrangements attractive by doing something different each year.

“I like to think that it’s a little bit artistic and adds something nice to the area where you first drive into town,” she said. “I guess I’m a little crazy to spend all this time at it, but I sure

think it looks a lot better than just having a bunch of gravel.”

Landru says she’s committed to keeping the plants growing.

“I love doing this, and besides, I don’t want to leave it now because if I did, things might go back the way they were before,” she said. “I’d lke to keep it going as long as I’m able. Sometimes my knees really feel it, but I can handle it for now.”

Music with a message: Kids helping kids

City living wrapped in the charm of a small town lifestyle.

A high-energy performance by a group of young entertainers carries a strong anti-bullying message

610 Centennial Blvd., Warman

Students in grades 3 to 5 at Warman Elementary School were treated to a musical sensation from The Saskatoon Expressions on Wednesday, June 5, which conveyed an important anti-bullying message.

“Bullying is an issue that, unfortunately, isn’t going away,” said Lorna Batycki, Studio Director and Artistic Director for the Saskatoon Expressions. “We want to get across that we know that bullies are out there, but a person can make choices that ensure they are part of the solution and not part of the problem.

The Saskatoon Expressions are a group of young people, aged 13 to 19, who are part of the Saskatchewan First Musical Theatre Program. Their show this year is called “All We Are,” which focuses on the theme of anti-bullying.

“A lot of the kids in the group have experienced bullying,” said Batycki. “And I know that might be hard to believe because they’re all good-looking kids, and they sing and dance, but all of them have had to fight to get where they are today.”

This is the Saskatoon Expressions’ second show to feature the theme of anti-bullying. Last year’s was called “Stand Up.” While the the show “Stand Up” was based on the idea of standing up to bullies, “All We Are” is about not letting what bullies say define you.

“We received such posi-

Currently, the group consists of Emma Armstrong, Christien Barber, Capri Bernath, Erin Brophy, Paige Cey, Rebecca Cohen, Savana Gallant, Bishop Glaboff, Anna Thachuk, and Jillana Woloschuk from Saskatoon, Kenni Chomyn and Shae Rowe Bembridge from Dalmeny, Alex Batycki from St Denis, Graham Lehnert from Biggar, and Mykaela Mennie from Warman.

Prior to the perfromance in Warman, the group did shows in Aberdeen, Montgomery, and Silverspring schools.

“We’re really proud of these kids. They’ve come such a long way,” said Batycki.

“They give up a lot to do what they love. So we like to get them out and do positive performances.”

Throughout the year, the Saskatoon Expressions perform in 45 shows, which are all family-friendly and feature mostly contemporary music.

“A lot of these modern songs actually have really good messages if you listen to them,” said Batycki.

Among the musical numbers in “All We Are,” named for Pink’s titular song “Are We All We Are,” were Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young,” Green Day’s “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” and Lil’ Mix’s “Wings.”

“When we were doing Boulevard of Broken Dreams there was this one kid at the front singing along,” said Erin Brophey. “He was my favourite.”

“It makes all the difference in the world if these kids enjoy our performances,” said Christien Barber.

Warman Gems falter after strong start to season

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Warman Gems got off to a solid start in the Saskatoon Amateur Softball Association (SASA) season, but stumbled a bit last weekend.

The Gems fell 8-1 to the Allied Denture Masters on Friday, June 7 at Bob Van Impe Stadium in Saskatoon.

It brought the team’s season record to 5-2, and served as a bit of a wake-up call, according to Mike Stefanuk, who’s stepped up to take on a coaching role with the team this year.

“We lost a couple close games that we probably should have won,” said Stefanuk. “But the ones we won were convincing enough. We should be 7 and 0 at this point, but the other teams played well too.”

Stefanuk said there were a few mistakes that contributed to the loss against the Allied Denture Masters.

“Today wasn’t our best perforamnce,” he admitted.

“We only scored one run, and we waited until the sixth in-

ning. They have a good pitcher, and we didn’t do anything on defnese to help our pitchers out.

You give up five runs on two errors and suddenly you’re really behind the 8-ball.”

The Denture Masters scored three quick runs in the opening inning, added two more in the third, one in the fourth and two more in the sixth.

The Gems got one run on the strength of an RBI single when Matt Scherr connected on a solid single to bring Chad Keating home.

The Gems had three games scheduled this week, and Stefanuk is confident the team will get back on track.

“You have to lose some to get better in the long run,” he said.

Warman’s next league game is Thursday, June 20 against the Saskatoon Westside Selects.

The Gems are participating in several tournaments, including the International Men’s Softball tournament slated for Saskatoon in early July.

The Gems will also be hosting the New Zealand team in an exhibition game in Warman on July 4 at Oasis Park.

From wheels to water, Dalmeny athlete competes at national level

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca

Paralympic hopeful Ashley Baerg has made quite an impression in women’s wheelchair basketball for nearly a decade. At 23, that’s quite an accomplishment. In 2012 she was selected as an alternate on the Canadian team for Women’s Wheelchair Basketball at the London Paralympic Games last August.

But recently it’s become apparent she’s not content to stay with just one sport. When other opportunities come knocking, it’s hard to say “no.” It started when a wheelchair basketball training group went waterskiing as part of their windup in Alabama last August. A fun and recreational activity led to an invitation to a training camp for waterskiing in Florida. “I wasn’t going to say no to a free trip to Florida,” laughs Baerg.

If it’s October, there’s some definite plusses to training in Florida versus Saskatchewan.

A place called Winterhaven had enough lakes around to suit the Canadian team’s purposes.

“Three days into training camp they said to me, yeah you’re going to the World Championships,” says Baerg.

She added that since they only had seven skiers at training camp and they could take up to 14, “It wasn’t like I really had to try out, but I did really well.

There are three different categories; you can do jumping, slalom and trick-skiing and I do all three.”

In fact Baerg distinguished herself as the first Canadian woman to ever go over a jump, something she didn’t find out about till three days after getting home to Dalmeny.

They thought that was so amazing, they began making arrangements for media with TV crews to get the story out.

But Baerg says, “I never did go ahead with that because my basketball coach didn’t know about it yet.” Now suddenly, her two pursuits created complications. She had a contract with the Canadian Wheelchair basketball team and needed to have a chat with her coach.

Baerg has just returned from a second water ski train-

ing stint in Florida. She will be traveling to Milan, Italy for the IWWF World Disabled Waterski Championships in August.

“I don’t really have any expectations going into worlds,” she says. “I’m very competitive so I want to do the best that I can do, but I’ve never competed, I’ve never even gone to a provincial competition, so I’ve never seen anybody except for my teammates compete, and I don’t know how I stack up. I’m going to get my personal best.”

Almost half the team going to Italy is from Saskatoon, with others from BC, Quebec and Regina also participating. The Saskatoon group will be training locally at the Rat Hole in

the city. The Saskatoon Water Ski Club uses the Rat Hole, but they will share.

“We’ll train all summer. The water ski club opens June 1 and training will likely start this week,” says Baerg. The Baerg’s have a cabin at the lake, so she expects to train there as well, since there are other skiers in the family.

Baerg says her athletic pursuits have opened up another world to her.

“Not only does it keep me physically fit, I’m able to meet new people and form friendships, travel, see new cultures that I would never otherwise get to see, like Japan and Germany, which are completely

different than Canada. It’s the biggest privilege in the world to compete for your country. I don’t think there’s any bigger honour in sport than to put on your country’s uniform,” says Baerg.

Although Baerg has been successful juggling her two sports up till now, she may have some decisions to make going forward.

“My goal for years has been to make the national team for Wheelchair Basketball and I still want to do that. After Italy I have to make a decision; I won’t be able to do both waterskiing and basketball, so that’s been hard because I’m not 100 percent sure what I want to do,” says Baerg.

One thing is certain; Baerg will give it everything she’s got.

“Because I’m so competitive and I always want to push myself and see how much better I can get, to make it to the highest level is always my goal.”

You would truly have to be here at 2013 Roughrider training camp to believe it. And this is no exaggeration.

The talent assembled by Rider GM Brendan Taman and his staff reads like a veritable CFL All-Star team. Highlight-reel plays have become the norm through the first week of training camp due to the stunning stable of big names.

Let’s go down the list: • SB Weston Dressler (2012 CFL All-Star) • SB Chris Getzlaf (2012 CFL All-Star) • SB Geroy Simon (CFL’s alltime leading receiver) • QB Darian Durant (named the CFL’s 3rd-best player in a TSN poll two years ago) • RB Kory Sheets (1277 yards as a rookie in 2012) • DE John Chick (2009 CFL Most Outstanding Defensive Player) • DE Ricky Foley (2012 Grey Cup Top Canadian) • LB Rey Williams (2012 Ticats tackles leader) • DB Dwight Anderson (regarded as the league’s best) • S Tyron Brackenridge (2012 Rider defensive MVP) That’s not even to mention two-time Grey Cup champs, and former Alouettes, linebacker Diamond Ferri and defensive lineman Jermaine McElveen.

Throw in receiver Kierre Johnson, who caught a touchdown pass in the 2011 Grey Cup for the champion B.C. Lions, and the list is truly staggering. I’m probably even forgetting a few.

Of course this doesn’t mean a waltz to the Grey Cup in November in Regina for the Riders. The 2013 Blue Jays and 2012-13 Lakers have reminded us that all the talent in the world doesn’t add up to success, or even championships. And at this point, the Rider braintrust knows it.

“The biggest thing is, of course, there are a lot of big names, there are a lot of veteran guys,” said head coach Co-

RIDER INSIDER ROD PEDERSEN

Voice of the Riders Roughriders Radio Network

rey Chamblin. “Those guys have made plays in previous stops and we want to make sure they’re making big plays here.

“The biggest thing is making sure they buy into what we do and how we do it. I think the guys are headed in that direction. It won’t happen overnight but we’ll push those guys so they understand where we are now. We’re not looking for individual guys, we’re looking for individual players who play within the scheme.”

It won’t be up to one person to bring it all together. Rather it will be a collective effort.

However Dwight Anderson figures with all the offensive talent, if will come down to the guy pulling the trigger to get the job done.

“You really gotta pay attention to Geroy, you already had

to pay attention to Getzlaf and Dressler, so it’s just putting more weapons out there for Durant,” Anderson surmised.

“It’s all on his shoulders. He’s got a lotta weapons out there so it’s gonna be up to him to find the right guy!”

Durant laughed when told of the expectations placed on him

by Anderson.

“Me and D.A. have a good relationship,” Durant smiled.

“I’m glad he’s on our side. If he’s saying the offense is on my shoulders, then the secondary and the defense is on his because he’s come over with a lot of expectations also.”

Whatever it takes boys. Just get it done!

We’ll get our first look at how things are coming together when the Roughriders visit Edmonton Friday night for the team’s first preseason contest.

Players with the Warman Minor Football Association showed off their colours, while children were happy to gather up candy, even if the packaging got a little soggy.

Two young mothers from Martensville have raised more than $30,000 over the past two years for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Royal University Hospital (RUH) in Saskatoon.

It’s their way of saying “thank you” to the medical and support staff of the specialized unit, the lifeline for newborn babies who teeter on the brink of death at the moment of birth.

Karey Gerber and Amy Novakovski both experienced the trauma of having a newborn infant arrive into the world without breathing. The babies were rushed from the delivery room straight to NICU, where the doctors and nurses were able to resuscitate them and provide 24-hour intensive care until they were able to be restored to their parents and their new homes.

Last year, Gerber and Novakovski organized a steak night fundraiser with the intention of donating money to the NICU. That event, which came together in a matter of weeks, succeeded in raising a total of $8,845. A second fundraiser on May 10 of this year attracted 285 people, and resulted in a total of $21,084.

A GESTURE OF THANKS

A cheque was presented by Gerber and Novakovski to the NICU on Friday, June 7.

It’s a wonderful gesture that is appreciated by the NICU staff and the health region as a whole, says Rhonda Furber, Manager of the NICU. “We get a lot of small donations over the course of the year as parents say ‘thank you’ to the unit staff,” said Furber. “But this is unusually high.”

Funds that are donated to the NICU are kept in a separate account under the umbrella of the Saskatoon Children’s Hospital Foundation, and chari-

She added that there are a significant number of donations that are made in memory of individuals.

Furber said with private donations like this, the funds can be directed toward items such as furniture for the

ical equipment and staffing, and noted that when the new Children’s Hospital is eventually built, there will be a total of 43 beds compared to the current 32 beds for critically-ill infants.

Get on with it, Get Freedom.

Gerberg’s son is now doing well.

Amy Novakovski gave birth to twins eighteen months ago. The birth was inducted at 36 weeks gestation.

While her daughter, Camden, was healthy, it was a different story for her son Dutch, who arrived eight minutes later.

“The first few pictures I have of him, he’s just lying limp and lifeless,” said Novakovski. “He wasn’t breathing at all. He just lay there with his eyes closed. He wasn’t crying. There was a lot of commontion and chaos at the time, and then they got him breathing and they took him to NICU. It was very scary.”

Dutch was in NICU for four days.

“They brought him down on my birthday,” said Novakovksi.

The mother of four said her son is doing fine now, as are her other three children.

COMMON EXPERIENCE

Gerber and Novakovski both live in Martensville, and got to know each other as a result of Gerber collecting baby receiving blankets in the community.

“Karey stopped by my house to pick

up some blankets, and we shared our stories,” said Novakovski. “We decided to do a fundraiser for the NICU, and organized the first one in four weeks.

Lots of people came, and this year we decided to do it aggain, and we’re going to make it a yearly thing.”

Novakovski said she was amazed at the response from people around the world who made donations to the cause because they have gone through similar experiences.

“I had responses from as far away as Portugal and the southern United States,” she said. “We just couldn’t believe how many people were touched by this, and wanted to help us give something back.”

She said it is difficult to come back to the NICU and re-live the experience by watching other parents anxiously waiting for news of their babies’ conditions.

“Walking through those doors, and watching the moms, I remember what it was like to be that parent, and how that felt,” she said. “If we can help provide something for one of those babies, or an extra bed or something that helps a family through a difficult time, that’s why we’re doing this.”

St. John’s Lutheran Church in Warman celebrates 100 years of rejoicing

By EMMA HENLEY emma@ccgazette.ca

St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church celebrates its 100th anniversary as a spiritual centre for the Warman community this year.

“The church and the community work together to support one another,” said Rev. Randy Heide in an interview on June 6.

According to Heide, the church is vital in a commu-

attributes alone. The triad must work together.

“There are people who only find God in moments of desperation,” said Heide. “For that reason the church must exist in a community to help people realize their place in the world and in God’s greater scheme of things.

“I am asked, quite often, if one has to be a member to attend this church,” said Heide.

“And I think it is important to establish that services at this church are public services.

They are open to anyone who may wish to attend.”

In addition, the church has always been focused on serving the needs of the community through children’s ministries.

“There’s very much a Christian component here in our pre-school and at the daycare in Martensville as well,” explained Heide. “We teach the kids some songs, read from scripture to them at their level, and have story time with them.

It’s important that we teach them that God loves them.”

The church was founded in 1913 by a group of five families, all of whom served the German Lutheran community.

The church was established at that time in a building that was once an Anglican church that closed down. nity because it nourishes the spiritual component. It is not enough for an individual to sustain on the physical or mental

There is also a Vacation Bible Camp and Sunday School.

“Vacation Bible Camp runs once a week during the summer months, and hosts kids from kindergarten to Grade 6,” said Heide. “Sunday school runs all year and is open to people of all ages.

While Warman was originally an English-settled railroad town, it was eventually settled

by German Mennonite families that moved in from surrounding settlements.

The church was founded in 1913 by a group of five families, all of whom served the German Lutheran community.

The church was established at that time in a building that was once an Anglican church that closed down.

In 1979, the church was given an ultimatum; either join St. Paul’s Lutheran Church down on Taylor Street in Saskatoon, or expand.

“The church asked the pastor, who was serving both St. John’s and St. Pauls at the time, to help and he did,” said Heide.

“The church grew from a space that could seat only 21 people into a space that could seat 80.”

It was also at this time that the church moved from its former location where the Warman Public library now is, to its current location on South Railway Street.

“Soon after, the church ex-

RURAL MUNICIPALITY OF ABERDEEN NO. 373 PUBLIC NOTICE Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Aberdeen No. 373 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw No.2007-04, the Official Community Plan (OCP formerly known as the Basic Planning Statement) of the Rural Municipality of Aberdeen No. 373.

INTENT The proposed amending bylaw will: 1. Enhance the natural and heritage policies of the OCP by stipulating that the design and con struction of new country residential, commercial and industrial development in the municipal ity must observe a flood safety standard equivalent to a 1:100 year flood elevation plus wave and wind run-up or a 1:500 year flood event, whichever is greater. New policies are also in cluded to require developers to address the remediation of known soil contamination on sites prior to the approval of new development.

2. Provide for two new types of multiple lot country residential development including: - a CR2A Medium Density Country Residential Zoning District which will provide for 3 acre minimum size lots at a slightly higher density than that permitted in the CR2 Medium Den sity Country Residential District which is currently accommodated in the existing zoning bylaw; and - a CR3 High Density Country Residential Zoning District which will provide for high density country residential development provided it is directly related to a planned and integrated recreational facility.

3. Provide added requirements respecting the planning and development of multiple lot country residential and commercial development including: - a limitation on the scale and density of CR2A developments to a maximum of 35 lots; - a greater emphasis on addressing site drainage in the planning and approval of multiple lot country residential and commercial development; and - stringent requirements for provision of water service in conjunction with high density multiple lot country residential development.

4. Provide a consolidated listing and description of the various categories of multiple lot coun try residential development available under the amended OCP including existing low and me dium density zoning districts (CR/low density, CR MU/mixed use medium density and CR2/ medium density) and the proposed new districts (CR2A and CR3). A descriptive table is also added to the OCP respecting minimum and maximum parcel size, maximum potential development area and water, sewer and road servicing requirement for each CR development category.

REASON 1. The amendment will bring municipal policy respecting flood protection measures associated with the approval of new development in line with provincial policy and interests.

2. The amendment is intended to accommodate the approval of higher densities and unique forms of multiple lot country residential development not currently allowed.

3. The amendments provide for enhanced planning, engineering and development requirements for multiple lot country residential and commercial development to assure a high quality of fu ture development for the municipality.

PUBLIC INSPECTION Any person may inspect the bylaws at the Rural Municipal Office, located at 102 4th Avenue in the Town of Aberdeen, between the hours of 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM (closed between 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM) from Monday to Friday, excluding statutory holidays. Copies of the proposed bylaws are available at the Rural Municipal Office at a cost of $5.00.

PUBLIC HEARING Council will hold a public hearing at 7:00 PM on June 25th, 2013 at the Aberdeen Community Hall located at 202 2nd Avenue in the Town of Aberdeen, to hear any person or group that wants to comment on the proposed bylaw. Council will also consider written comments received at the hearing, or delivered to the undersigned at the municipal office before the hearing.

Issued at the Town of Aberdeen this 6th day of June, 2013.

The Lutheran church will be celebrating its 100th anniversary on June 22 and 23. On the Saturday there will be a registration held at the church, followed by dinner and entertainment. On Sunday, a celebration service will be held at the church, followed by a BBQ, and activities and entertainment at Lions Park in Warman.

RURAL MUNICIPALITY OF ABERDEEN NO. 373 PUBLIC NOTICE Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Aberdeen No. 373 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw No.2007-05, known as the Zoning Bylaw of the Rural Municipality of Aberdeen No. 373.

INTENT The proposed amending bylaw will: 1. Provide criteria to guide decision making by Council in its consideration of discretionary use applications.

2. Provide terms and conditions that Council may apply in its approval of discretionary use ap plications in order to minimize land use conflicts associated with development proposals.

3. Increase application fees authorized under the zoning bylaw including fees for development permits, the rezoning of land or amendment to the zoning bylaw and for the recovery of costs associated with public notice for bylaw amendments and discretionary use applications.

4. Provide improved development control measures respecting requirements for: - site grading and drainage plans for flood protection; - remediation of soil contamination prior to development approvals; and - drainage area plans for new subdivisions and site drainage plans for site develop ments.

5. Provide a maximum limit for the combined floor area of all accessory buildings on sites in multiple lot country residential developments.

6. Provide new zoning district categories for multiple lot country residential development in- cluding: - CR2A Medium Density Country Residential District to accommodate medium densi- ty development at a density slightly higher than the existing CR2 District together with other forms of compatible development and use, including institutional, recreational and public works. Residential sites at a minimum size of .5 acres will be accommodated in the CR2A district in accordance with identified site and yard requirements.

- CR3 High Density Country Residential District with associated regulations to accom modate high density country residential development provided it is directly related to a planned and integrated recreational facility. Other forms of compatible development and use, including institutional, recreational and public works will be allowed in the CR3 district.

Residential sites at a minimum size of 3 acres will be accommodated in the CR3 district in accordance with identified site and yard requirements.

REASON 1. To improve and guide the discretionary use application approval process.

2.

To introduce zoning bylaw provisions to accommodate higher densities and unique forms of multiple- lot country residential development not currently allowed. The amendment proposes to rezone land to accommodate the proposed subdivision and development of land to CR3 District for an integrated golf course residential community.

3. To provide for enhanced planning, engineering and development requirements for multiple lot country residential and commercial development to assure a high quality of future devel opment.

PUBLIC INSPECTION Any person may inspect the bylaws at the Rural Municipal Office, located at 102 4th Avenue in the Town of Aberdeen, between the hours of 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM (closed between 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM) from Monday to Friday, excluding statutory holidays.

Cheryl Larmer and Laura Loeppky are both former students of the country school, one of the few left in the province that are still in operation. Laura Loeppky, who attended the school from 1934-43, said the original school was a one-room building with no running water or indoor plumbing. “The facilities were all outside,” she said. “It was okay in the fall, but not so much in the winter.” Over 100 people attended the school’s centennial celebration on Saturday, June 8, despite a daylong rain that put a damper on the outdoor festivities. An indoor program at the Pike Lake Hall went ahead as scheduled, and the school was opened up for visitors to tour the classrooms and share memories.

Horoscopes CAPRICORN

Play your cards right at an upcoming event, Capricorn, and you could be in for a promotion. A new friend spins an unbelievable tale. Who knew?

AQUARIUS

Heads up, Aquarius. An acquaintance has their sights set on you for assistance with an unusual task. Don’t take the bait unless you’re ready.

PISCES

An organization reaches out. Heed the call, Pisces. You have the resources to see it through. A development at work is no reason to panic.

ARIES

Organization is key to smooth operations at home. Start with that pile near your front door, Aries. Confidences are broken at work, just in time!

TAURUS

Eavesdropping is unavoidable, Taurus. Consider the source and take what you hear this week with a grain of salt. A trade at home is more than fair.

GEMINI

Itching to get started, Gemini? You might want to wait until you have all of the facts. A debt is repaid—with interest. Put it to good use.

CANCER

Crikey, Cancer. You’ve kept your talents under wraps for so long that people are starting to forget what a star you are. Sign up for an upcoming event.

LEO

Alas, Leo. Whatever the situation, you always manage to keep it together. That trait will come in handy at work and lead to a new responsibility.

VIRGO

Impossible, Virgo. There is no way you messed up, or is there? Look a little closer and make amends before it’s too late. A memo settles a matter.

LIBRA

Live, love and laugh. That should be your mantra this week and always. You’ve become much too serious for your own good. Snap out of it, Libra.

SCORPIO

The torch is passed, and you must find something else to do with your time. You won’t have to look far, Scorpio. A young friend could use a mentor.

SAGITTARIUS

Tirades do not become you, so stop with the dramatics and try a new tactic to make yourself heard. People will listen with the right mode of attack, Sagittarius.

FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY CITED

Parents underestimate what it takes to keep kids safe around the water Drowning is the second leading cause of preventable death for children younger than 10, but recent Canadian Red Cross research shows that the majority of Saskatchewan parents do not understand what is needed to safeguard children in, on and around the water. On average, 13 children drown in the Prairie provinces every year.

“Children can drown quickly and quietly, and often in situations where they were not expected to enter the water,” says Rick Caissie, national director for first aid, swimming and water safety at the Red Cross.

“Only one-third of children and youth who drown in Canada were taking part in aquatic activities that parents typically see as risky, like swimming or wading. One-third of children drown in situations where they enter the water unexpectedly, like by falling from a dock or entering the water without their caregiver’s knowledge.”

Parents in Saskatchewan have a false sense of security when their children are near water. Nearly half (46 per cent) of parents believe they can effectively supervise a child in the water without constantly watching them. However, four out of five children under the age of six who drown in Canada were not expected to enter the water.

Red Cross public opinion research shows that Canadian parents significantly underestimate children’s risk of drowning in shallow water, with 98 per cent of respondents with children younger than four in-

dicating that water depth influences their level of supervision.

However, data shows that 40 per cent of children drown in water less than one metre deep, and 90 per cent of children who drown in shallow water are not with a supervising adult.

“Sixty per cent of child drownings occur between June and August. If past trends continue, 34 children could drown between today and Labour Day,” adds Caissie. “With summer around the corner, we urge parents to understand the risks

to children not just when they are in the water, but also when they are on or near it.”

June 1 to 8 is Water Safety Week, and the Red Cross is calling on all parents and adults to properly supervise children by maintaining them within reach and within sight at all times. The Red Cross has been helping to keep Canadians safe in, on and around water since 1946. For more about Red Cross swimming and water safety programs, or for safety tips, visit redcross.ca/swim.

BORDEN & DISTRICT News CELEBRATION VALLEY GOSPEL

By LORRAINE OLINYK lolinyk@ccgazette.ca

A Village of Borden information meeting was held June 6th in the Borden Community Centre to deal with a few issues.

The first topic was the closing of 2nd Ave. west to vehicle travel and where the road washed out a foot bridge may be installed.

This closure was asked by residents with families living along this street as the traffic was just going too fast along the road and was becoming dangerous and people have access to the Village along the service road.

The second topic was about SAMA tax assessments, which some felt were wrong and the Village will proceed to appeal the mistakes for 2014, but if anyone wished to appeal on their own they could, by June 10 and pay $50.

If you’re successful you get the money back but if not SAMA keeps it. Many questions were asked by the ratepayers about this problem with SAMA and the council answered as best they could.

The last topic was the flooding that occurred and Mayor Dave Buckingham spoke very highly of all the volunteers that pitched in to help, many from out of town with over 1,000 being fed a few days. He thanked the Village and RM councillors, staff, the firemen who worked many long hours over the 21 days. It was an amazing event but he hopes never to see it again. Thanks were also extended to EMO co-ordinator Kandice Brandrick, Ken and Linda Tanchak for the use of their yard to run all the pipes over, the food co-ordinators Elizabeth, Kendall and Denise, and the Village would like stories and photos to verify all that happened.

The Provincial Disaster Assistance Program (PDAP) will pay for a lot of the expenses- the Village pays .01% of current assessed values and EFPR(Emergency Flood Prevention Relief) will pay for some projects – the Village may have to pay 15% on some, 7.5% on culverts, the sandbags and pumps are covered 100% by PDAP. The big new culvert going in on 2nd Ave will mostly be funded by the government.

In the RM the culverts are all being increased in size and at many washouts two culverts are going in.

The Village thanked the Provincial government for stepping in very quickly with assistance through the MLA Randy Week-

es, the Village would like ideas re the Walking Trail and where the bridge should be installed NE of the school grounds, need ideas how to beautify 2nd Ave West if a walking bridge put in.

Thank you letters will go out to all those who donated to the cause with food, machinery or labour and a special thanks to all the workers from Urban Camp Saskatoon who were out during the flooding and have been out since to empty the thousands of sandbags left.

A meeting was held June 9 at the Community Centre with PDAP and all those who had flooding in their homes to get assistance with renovating their damaged homes.
