University of Saskatchewan Huskies defensive back Brendan Ernst is sillhouetted against a backdrop of smoke that lingered for 40 minutes after a fireworks display during the half-time show at the Huskies’ annual Blackout game on Saturday, October 4. The smoke delayed the start of the second half, but the Huskies prevailed to beat the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds by a score of 31-25. Story and photos on page 17.

In recent years the moose population has increased in the Valley area as the large ungulate has taken advantage of good food sources, abundance of water and a lack of predators. This time of year is the animal’s mating season and special care needs to be taken by motorists as bulls like this one photographed near Osler are on the move looking for a companion.

First of four Hwy. 7 passing lanes opens between Delisle and Rosetown The signs are up and the pavement lines have been marked for the first set of passing lanes on Highway 7 between Delisle and Rosetown.

“The first lanes opened to traffic on Thursday, October 2,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Nancy Heppner said. “The passing lanes increase traffic capacity and improve safety by providing more opportunities to pass slower moving vehicles. This project is one more example

of our government investing in infrastructure to address a growing province and expanding economy.”

The Highway 7 passing lane project will ultimately consist of four sets of passing lanes for a total of 16 kilometres.

The project is scheduled to be complete during the 2015 construction season with the cost of the project at $8.9 million.

The Government of Canada is contributing approximately $3.8 million under the New Building Canada Fund.

When using passing lanes, drivers need to stay in the right lane except when passing other vehicles. Yellow signs clearly alert drivers that they should merge back into the left hand lane 300 metres before the end of the passing lane. Motorists are reminded to watch for traffic changing lanes and to be courteous as the passing lane ends.

The government has invested a record $4.3 billion in transportation infrastructure since 2008.

Two women, aged 69 and 67, and one man, aged 60, were injured in a two-vehicle collision on Highway 7 near Vanscoy on Monday, October 6.

MD Ambulance, Saskatoon RCMP and the Delisle Fire and Rescue department responded to the collision, which occurred just before 9:00 a.m.

MD Ambulance spokesperson Troy Davies said the collision involved two vehicles: a small size car and an SUV. The SUV had rolled following the collision, but emergency responders did not have to use extrication equipment to get the patients out of the vehicle.

The three victims of the crash were transported to Royal University Hospital with what were described as minor injuries.

Drainage projects still on the radar, councilor says

New development could double size of Dundurn

By TERRY PUGH

While the provincial government is reluctant to commit big bucks toward any drainage projects in the Opimihaw Creek basin, the municipalities in the region north of Saskatoon are still wrestling with the problem of potential flooding.

“It’s still very much an issue of concern,” said Bas Froese-Kooijenga, Division 6 councilor for the RM of Corman Park. “And the longer we wait, the more pressing it becomes. It’s getting to be budget-setting time for municipalities, and I would like to see some action, even if it is on a smaller scale than what was talked about before. I think we need to be realistic.”

Froese-Kooijenga said the provincial government has shown it is concerned about the damage caused by flooding in other parts of the province by earmarking large sums for projects in the south and east.

“The government has to choose its priorities, and that’s fair,” he said in an interview on Friday, October 3. “We understand we will never get the millions of dollars we need to complete every project we would like to, but we should still pick and choose some smaller projects and proceed with those if we can.”

Froese-Kooijenga said the Opimihaw Creek Watershed Association (OCWA), made up of municipal representatives from Corman Park, Warman, Osler, Martensville and Dalmeny, is still keeping the issue front and centre in discussions with the province.

“Ben Buhler, chair of the OCWA and Mayor of Osler, has had discussions with Hon. Scott Moe, MLA for Rosthern-Shellbrook and the new Minister responsible for the Saskatchewan Water Security Agency (WSA), and we’re hoping to have a meeting with him soon,” said Froese-Kooijenga. “Just because we didn’t get the $50 million we need to do all the projects doesn’t mean nothing can be done. We still have $750,000 in the bank remaining from the $1 million allocated to the OCWA two years ago by the province.”

He noted that with all the urban growth taking place in the area, the issue of drainage should be a high priority.

“It’s not just about flooded farmland,” he said. “Obviously, that’s important, but this is a regional development issue. Municipalities are growing and developing and we need to ensure the water is drained in a way that doesn’t put too much pressure on specific areas.”

Froese-Kooijenga said one area of major concern is the culvert at the intersection of Highway 11, Township Road 384 and the Warman south access service road.

“That culvert has to handle a tremendous amount of water every spring, and we need to make sure it is capable of doing that,” he said.

A new residential and commercial development in Dundurn could potentially double the size of the town once it is completed over the next five to ten years.

Sunshine Meadows, a threephase, 302-lot “solar-friendly” neighbourhood was unveiled by developers Ed Weening and Carman Dodman on Tuesday, September 30 in Dundurn. Groundbreaking for the first phase of development, consisting of 102 residential lots, is slated to begin this month.

“This is our first growth in 35 years, so it’s pretty exciting,” said Dundurn Mayor Doug Narraway.

“It’s an ambitious development, but I think we’re as prepared for it as much as we can be.”

The Sunshine Meadows development is situated on a 90-acre parcel alongside Highway 11 on the southeastern edge of the community.

The population of Dundurn currently sits at 683, according to Narraway. The development of just over 102 lots in the first phase alone would mean a substantial increase in population, but Narraway said the town has been gearing up for this for several years.

“We upgraded our sewer and water systems a few years ago in anticipation of doubling the size of the population,” said Narraway. “That was begun before this particular development even got started. We were just looking in the crystal ball and trying to position the town to be ahead of the curve.”

Ed Weening said the new community will consist of approximately 300 homes, with 102 lots slated to be developed in the first of three phases.

The lot sizes will be approximately 50 feet and up, with several of the larger lots backing onto green space and a central pond, an aesthetic focus for the neighbourhood which also serves a reservoir for surface runoff.

Weening said the development has earmarked 11 acres for retail and commercial businesses. An additional six acres of land within the development is set aside for a recreational complex that would include a new hockey arena and municipal offices for both the Town of Dundurn and RM of Dundurn.

Sunshine Meadows developers Carman Dodman (left) and Ed Weening unveil the proposed new 302-lot residential and commercial subdivision in Dundurn Weening said his development company, which has done projects in Edmonton, Calgary and Red Deer, is expanding into Saskatchewan because of the booming economy.

“We saw the boom about seven years ago and we purchased this land about six years ago,” said Weening. “We also have land for development in Warman and in the RM of Corman Park just outside Saskatoon.”

Weening said Dundurn was chosen because of its close proximity to Saskatoon along a major fourlane divided highway, and also because it was one of the few communities in the Saskatoon region that had not already begun to expand.

He noted the land where Sunshine Meadows is situated was annexed by the Town of Dundurn from the RM five years ago. He said the company’s original plan was to develop the land right away, but market conditions led to some delays.

“We’re excited now to be helping develop this community,” said Weening. “The Saskatoon region is experiencing very rapid growth, and we’re particularly excited about the Dundurn area as being a place to live, work and play.”

A sign is put in place on Highway 11 at the site of the development of the Sunshine Meadows development, said the earthwork on Phase 1, including the excavation of the pond, will begin this fall. The objective, he added, is to have streets laid out with sidewalks, curbs and gutters, as well as servicing the lots in the spring.

“We want to have this work done in anticipation that aggressive builders like myself are going to start building houses as soon as we can to make them available by late summer next year,” said Dodman.

“The pavement would probably hap-

pen in 2016. It’s a pretty aggressive time frame to get this project up and going, but I think timing is everything.”

Dodman said the second phase of the development would likely begin in 2017. If sales go well, Phase 3 could begin as early as 2018. But it all depends on market conditions, he added.

Customers treated like family at DNR Motorsports Growing up on a farm and being able to enjoy time on the sled in the winter or back roads and fields on a trike in the summer, off road adventure has always been a passion for Darcy Ruf. But, after not having any toys for a number of years, Ruf started a part-time business in 2008 buying and selling used ATVs and adding accessories to them. DNR Motorsports slowly evolved into a full-time venture selling quads, parts and accessories with a repair shop and full-time mechanic for ATVs, boats and sleds.

“We try very hard to offer our customers a quality product at a fair price,” Ruf says. “We also try to treat our customers the way we would like to be treated. Being a small business we depend on repeat customers and then those customers recommending us to others. Every customer is important to us no matter how little or how much they spend.”

DNR Motorsports is open Monday to Saturday and provides parts, accessories, sales and service for ATVs, boats, and sleds and is a Kymco ATV dealer. The company also handles Cross-Trax decks, Paddle Plastics tub trailers and Quadivator parts and accessories from Kimpex, Motovan and UTV Canada.

RM OF CORMAN PARK

Chuhaniuk sees need for ‘controlled development’

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Michelle Chuhaniuk understands why people want to live outside the city limits, but she also believes there’s a need to regulate new country residential developments so they fit in with their surroundings.

A 15-year resident of Corman Park, Chuhaniuk is one of three candidates vying to represent Division 2 at the Corman Park council table. The other candidates in that division race are incumbent councilor Sherry Mervold and consultant Colleen Norrish.

Division 2, located south of Saskatoon, is the smallest division geographically, but one of the most densely-populated areas of the RM. The election is set for Wednesday, October 22. There will also be an election in Division 4, in which two candidates, Randall Rooke and David Greenwood, are competing for the position. Incumbent councilor Gord Gunoff is not seeking re-election.

Two even-numbered divisions will not have elections.

Bas Froese-Kooijenga, incumbent councilor in Division 6, was re-elected by acclamation in his division; and incumbent

councilor Wendy Trask was returned uncontested in Division 8.

PLANNING NEEDED

Chuhaniuk, a retired school administrator, said in an interview on Friday, October 3 that she decided to run after being encouraged by several ratepayers in her area.

“I believe the ratepayers in Division 2 want to see a change in terms of development,” said Chuhaniuk. “There are those who want to see more development and others who don’t. But regardless of where they fall on that spectrum, the majority of them are not certain that the development we are seeing is being done in a controlled fashion. I think there’s agreement they would like to see better planning.

“Density is a concern, but more importantly, there needs to be some type of architectural controls; things like more landscaping and gated communities so we have aesthetically-pleasing neighbourhoods.”

Chuhaniuk said country residential developments on the outskirts of large centres like Calgary and Edmonton are well-planned and “beautifullylandscaped”. She said regulating developments is not meant

to be restrictive, but is aimed at preventing “haphazard” building. Chuhaniuk said she believes the RM needs to be “open for business” and should encourage commercial and industrial development, but noted these businesses need to be situated where they fit in.

She said Corman Park has the advantage of a large land base, which the City of Saskatoon does not have.

“We need to be attractive to business owners and large corporations for that reason. But we need to proceed in a cautious and controlled manner there too.”

She said with increasing development, the RM gains a bigger tax base, but it also has increased challenges in terms of building and maintaining roads and other services.

Chuhaniuk said as a recently-retired administrator, she has the energy and skills needed to take on the challenge of being part of the governing body for one of the largest RMs in the province.

“If I’m elected, I look forwar to working with a renewed council. I believe our Reeve has done a great job over the last two years to turn things around, and I would like to be a part of that process.”

Elstow considers move to hamlet status Declining property tax revenues and lower population numbers are prompting the Village of Elstow to revert to hamlet status in the RM of Blucher.

Saskatoon RCMP and local emergency personnel also responded to the collision.

“When paramedics arrived on the scene, first responders were performing CPR on a 28-year-old male,” said Davies. “The male patient was pronounced deceased by paramedics on scene.” No other patients were transported to hospital.

A new city hospital while rural hospitals decline

Stop punishing consumers for buying Canadian

By GREGORY THOMAS

Federal Director, Canadian Taxpayers Federation

COMMENTARY

​Do you remember the Harper government’s consumer agenda? Stirring words in last October’s Speech from the Throne promised consumers a crackdown on all those greedy capitalists who gouge consumers.

“Canadian families work hard to make ends meet, and every dollar counts,” the Governor General intoned. “While companies will look out for their bottom line, our government is looking out for everyday Canadians.”

The government even promised to get tough on Canadian retailers whose prices are higher than those charged south of the border.

“Canadians are tired of hidden fees…and they should not be charged more in Canada for identical goods that sell for less in the United States.”

Bold words aside, consumers haven’t seen much in the way of lower prices yet.

The Harper Conservatives do have a real opportunity to help consumers and boost the economy, especially since the federal budget is nearly balanced: They should eliminate sales tax — GST and HST — on digital downloads of books, music, television shows, video games and movies. Right now, entertainment downloaded or streamed from outside of Canada is already tax-free. Just take a look at your next invoice from iTunes or Netflix.

Two of Canada’s cable companies, Rogers and Shaw have announced plans to compete head-tohead with Netflix, offering a big library of TV shows and movies online for $8.99 per month. But if you buy Shomi, this nearly identical product from the Canadian providers, you are going to pay anywhere from 5- to 15 per cent more, depending on the province where you live — and it’s all tax.

Canadian consumers are punished for “buying Canadian.”

The government is already looking into how it can “level the playing field.” But that’s not good enough for Canadian consumers. Some have suggested equality could be achieved by adding taxes to iTunes and Netflix purchases (among others). This might help reach the goal of ensuring consumers aren’t paying more for products sold in Canada than the U.S., but it’s not a viable longterm solution. And the federal government is right to reject these calls.

Sure, massive U.S.-based companies like Apple and Netflix might be easy-ish to tax, but what about the small, off-shore companies that are popping up to sell these digital services?

Trying to tax products that can be downloaded with a swipe of a finger on a smart phone, from a website based anywhere in the world, is a mug’s game.

Another compelling reason for the Harper government to eliminate these taxes: They don’t bring in much revenue anyway. GST, HST and PST on books, movies, and music amounted to just $331-million across Canada in 2010 – that includes physical books, CDs and DVDs (remember those?). That’s about one half of one percent of total federal and provincial sales tax revenue.

So go ahead and tax the high-speed connection from the phone company or the cable company – the actual pipe that brings digital downloads or streams into our home. Go ahead and tax the wireless bandwidth that feeds our mobile phones.

Governments do that already. But give Canadian consumers the same break for “buying Canadian” that our governments give for “buying American” – stop taxing digital entertainment in Canada.

Perhaps the first place new Rural and Remote Health Minister Greg Ottenbreit should examine is the hospital in his own home town of Yorkton.

At least a couple dozen elective surgeries in this critical rural health centre were cancelled late last month because of a bug problem.

“At the last minute they cancelled the surgery, stating that there were insects and little flies in the operating room,” Jason Butler told CBC News. “It didn’t leave a good feeling with me and in fact I’m requesting to go to Regina now for surgery.”

A Sunrise Health Region spokesman confirmed the problem as cracks in the caulking of a window, allowing tiny insects to crawl in.

Some may see this as a minor hiccup in rural health care delivery; one that is easily rectified. Unless you are some-

Provincial Politics

one like Butler who booked a month off work in anticipation of his surgery, you might see this as a problem that is hardly worth mentioning.

But it does seem rather indicative of the health delivery problem in aging rural facilities; a problem that may be compounded in the coming years as government’s health priorities head off in other directions.

It is here where Ottenbreit, Health Minister Dustin Duncan and all members of the largely rural Saskatchewan Party government caucus may need to take a serious look at their priorities.

tion since opposition days that we are one of the few provinces in the country without our very own children’s hospital, lost in the conversation has been whether that has meant our children our underserved.

There is no question that there needs to be upgrades in both the maternity and pediatrics facilities at RUH, but did we ever need a separate, special facility of our own?

Besides the serious question of whether we have the volume of severely sick kids requiring such specialized attention, there is the very legitimate problem of simply attracting qualified pediatric specialists to staff it. In doing so, we will have to compete with the Stollery Children’s Hospital in Edmonton, B.C. Children’s Hospital in Vancouver, the Children’s Hospital of Winnipeg and even the Sick Kids in Toronto.

And without the best specialists, parents will still make the difficult decision of going out of province to where the best doctors are. For some of the very specialized work, they will have no choice because the kind of talent we are talking about may very well be limited to but a few doctors in the entire country.

Then there is the question of how much we will have to pay for this talent and a fourth hospital in Saskatoon that already sees its newest City Hospital highly underutilized.

Meanwhile, smaller rural Saskatchewan cities like Yorkton and every other town in the province will have to fight that much harder for their share of the scarce health dollars.

It’s something that Ottenbreit and the entire Sask. Party government needs to seriously think about.

Children’s hospital is welcome news for this parent There may have been a lot of controversy over Saskatchewan’s first Children’s Hospital in Saskatoon, but what matters now is that we will eventually have one, and that is a great thing for this province.

Prairie Screechin’

It is true that this hospital is for every child in Saskatchewan, but to truly understand why something like this is so valuable, it helps to view this through the eyes of a parent of a child with special needs or any other form of disability. Hospitals like this can have a huge positive impact in a child’s life.

I’ll use my daughter Ava as an example. If it wasn’t for the nurses at Calgary’s Children’s hospital, I don’t think I would have been able to care for my

In no small irony, the very day that surgeries in Yorkton were being postponed because of the rundown nature of the facility, Premier Brad Wall and Duncan were turning over the shovel for the new Children’s Hospital in Saskatoon that is being built right beside the Royal University Hospital.

Admittedly, criticizing the Children’s Hospital isn’t a popular thing; especially in either the cities or in Sask. Party ranks where there has been massive fund-raising and a massive buy-in that this is something the province desperately needs.

The thing is, though, it’s questionable whether another Children’s Hospital is needed in Western Canada and even more debateable as to whether this should be the priority for scarce health dollars.

While Wall and the Sask.

Party have been selling the no-

daughter in the early stages of her life.

My daughter has Down syndrome, and also had two holes her heart, so she obviously had a longer stay in hospital shortly after she was born.

Her condition is common with kids with Down syndrome, but it is tough as a parent to see your child hooked up to a breathing tube and watch as she devotes all her energy to just breathing. Meanwhile, she’s not gaining much weight and is attached at all times to a miniature oxygen tank.

Of course, before we took her home I had to learn how to put the breathing tube in myself, which is a daunting task.

Luckily I didn’t have to do this for long because a public health nurse decided that surgery was the only option.

After a short stay at Calgary’s Children’s Hospital I learned that her surgery would have to be performed at Edmonton’s Stollery Children’s Hospital. At three months old my daughter would have to

have major open heart surgery.

I was a basket case with worry that something could go wrong during Ava’s surgery.

But my mind was quickly put at ease by the nurses and doctor I met beforehand.

Shortly after Ava’s surgery I could see major improvements in her growth, and even though she is a little underweight for her age she is a healthy five year old little girl.

I don’t usually always sing the praises of our provincial government. Working in the media, it is our job to hold MLAs and even the Premier’s feet to the fire. But honestly, I am so glad there is a children’s hospital that is going to be built in Saskatoon.

An odd thing happened after the groundbreaking event for the hospital recently. While media were reporting the announcement, the photographer hired to cover the event for the Saskatoon Health region decided they wanted everyone in a large historic photo, which

would be a shot taken from the parkade overlooking the scene.

It was odd in the sense that we had nothing to do with the fundraising for the children’s hospital, or the design process. But reporters, including myself, CBC TV, CBC Radio, Global TV, CTV and other media were squeezed into a photo along with Premier Wall, MLAs, health officials, families, and children.

I guess it was a way of indicating that this hospital is for everyone.

Even if it wasn’t the intention of the photographer, the Saskatoon Health Region or even the government PR people, including the media in the photo was a nice gesture.

It made me feel good about something I never really had anything to do with. It seemed to convey the kind of ‘bedside manner’ that eases concerns.

Most importantly, as a parent, it’s nice to know that Saskatchewan children who visit this facility in the future are in good hands.

Crowe settling in to new role with City of Martensville

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Donald Crowe may be new to Martensville, but the city’s new Manager of Parks and Recreation Facilities is no stranger to the region known locally as the Saskatchewan Valley.

“I grew up in the Laird-Carlton area, and moved to Rosthern when I was in Grade 6,” said Crowe in an interview shortly after he started in the position in late September. “I did my high school in Rosthern and then moved to Saskatoon.”

After working at Case Martensville Parks New Holand Facilities land in Manager Don Crowe Saskatoon

for seven years, Crowe completed a recreation, tourism and management program at SIAST. Crowe comes to Martensville after serving as the manager of the Aberdeen Recreation Complex for two and a half years. It’s the kind of work he loves, and he says he’s ready for a new challenge. The city created the new position to spread out the workload formerly handled by the Recreation and Community Services Director, facilities supervisor and park supervisor.

Crowe’s responsibilities include managing facilities ranging from the new Martensville Athletic Pavilion to the new cemetery, the Lions Heritage Park and the spray park. “There’s a huge variety of amenities in Martensville,” said Crowe. “It’s all about quality of life for the residents. Green space and recreational amenities are becoming more and more important for this area because of the fast rate of growth. It’s an exciting opportunity.”

Warman gets in groove as an In Motion community

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

City of Warman officials, Saskatoon Health Region representatives and students from Warman High School and Warman Community Middle School all converged to celebrate becoming an In Motion community on Friday, October 3.

The In Motion program was created back in 1999 by the Saskatoon Health Region in an effort to promote healthy living.

According to its website, the model for In Motion is based on “building partnerships within communities to develop and implement physical activity health promotion programs.”

It does this by “creating community awareness of the health benefits of physical activity.”

Strategies for healthy living are targeted to all age groups, including children, youth and adults.

During the event WHS had junior and senior cheer leaders, students, city officials and health region members dance it up in the parking lot of Warman Community Middle School with Janelle Ching, Forever in Motion Fitness Instructor. They also participated in a walk around RJ Gidluck Park, located next to the Legends Centre and the school.

Warman Recreation and Community Events Supervisor Coralie Bueckert said In Motion and physical activity is extremely important in the community for people of all ages.

“I know for myself we are a dual income family. It’s tough. You really have to work hard to remain physically active with your family. It has just become easy to sit in front of your tablet or TV,” said Bueckert.

“I think society is changing and we need to work extremely hard at these kinds of things to get us back to promoting physical activity such as playing in a sand box or walking your kid through a park, not just actual organized events.”

Brent Rioux, senior In Motion consultant with Saskatoon Health Region, said the goal of the program is to break up sedentary time.

“We don’t want kids sitting for long periods of time,” said Rioux.

“We don’t want anyone sitting for long periods of time. It is something that resonates not only in schools but in work places and throughout

Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence signed a proclamation with the Saskatoon Health Region to make In Motion activities an annual event in the City of Warman.

“We live in a time where technology can be good, but also not as good; and I think what has happened is that young people spend a little too much time not being active,” said Spence. “I think life is all about balance and being active is very important. If you want to live a long life, it’s been proven you need to be active.”

Osler Community Pioneers Hall gets new lease on life after renovations

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Osler Community Pioneers Hall is a busy place, and now that it’s undergone a twoyear, $24,000 renovation, it’s likely to get even busier.

“This is used regularly during the fall, winter and spring,” said Art Zacharias, treasurer of the board of directors which is responsible for the volunteerrun hall, known locally a the Seniors Centre. “In December it gets really busy. Many times there are two functions a day at this hall, particularly right around Christmas.”

Last year, a commuity grant

from the Osler branch of Affinity Credit Union provided the seniors organization with enough money to purchase a commercial dishwasher, a requirement mandated by the Saskatoon Health Region.

Another major grant allowed the seniors group to install new flooring and paint the interior walls.

This year, the credit union provided a $500 grant which is helping to reimbuse the seniors centre for the cost of installing a new door and new outside steps and railings.

The steps, made and installed by Zacharias, a retired

carpenter, electrician and jackof-all-trades, add a nice touch to the look of the building. But it’s the door, and the renovations to the inside foyer, which will make a big difference once the weather gets colder.

“The old door always froze up in the winter,” said Zacharias. “Lots of times it was really hard to open. A board member would have to come and kick it hard enough to break the ice and get it to open. So we built up the entrance and installed a baseboard heater in the foyer in addition to putting in the new door. So that should really help.”

They have also done food services for the volunteers at these camps. Edna has always been great with knowing how much and what to cook for larger groups. Now Art chimes in and helps with that as well. If you stop at the Zacharias residence, don’t expect Art to be in.

‘Rural Man Van’ tackles tricky task of

educating folks about prostate cancer

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

Local farmers in Delisle got the opportunity to take a prostate cancer screening blood test though the Prostate Cancer Centre’s Rural Man Van mobile unit last week.

This year marked the first year that the Man Van toured through Saskatchewan; with stops in Biggar, Delisle, Kindersley and two stops in North Battleford.

The Rural Man Van has been around since 2013, as part of the Combines for Cures initiative. It was made possible by the generous sponsorship of agribusinesses in collaboration with rural doctors, nurses, and organizations, said Ken Rabb, Manager of Rural Initiatives with Calgary’s Prostate Cancer Centre.

The purpose of the mobile unit is to increase awareness of the importance of early detection of prostate cancer.

On scheduled dates, the van offers on the spot Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing at a variety of locations.

Rabb explained that the PSA is a protein produced by the prostate gland. As men age, the prostate enlarges and there is a natural increase in PSA. The PSA test indicates if the individual is in a normal or elevated range.

Companies have the opportunity to host the Rural Man Van in communities where they feel employees will benefit.

Rabb said the idea for taking the vans to Saskatchewan was spearheaded by their Combines for Cures supporters, which includes CPS, Agrium, Richardson Pioneer, Monsanto and Bayer Crop Sciences.

“These companies have seen the positive impact the van has had in rural Alberta and they wanted to offer the service to their customers in Saskatchewan,” said Rabb.

munications Manager for Crop Production Services in High River, Alberta, helped organize the Saskatchewan portion of the tour this year.

Groeneveld said the mobile unit is a convenient way to give back to their customer base.

“Our customers are ruralbased and they bring the service right into their communities for free,” said Groeneveld.

“It is easy, quick, and free. It’s on-site, and encourages growers over the age of 40 to have this test done as a pre-screening for prostate cancer.”

Rabb said while only eight men in Delisle used the mobile services of the Rural Man Van to get tested, he said men were overwhelmingly supportive of the program.

He added that while the tour coincided with the end of combining and had fewer farmers attend than they originally anticipated, they were able to test many truck drivers at the grain terminals.

Royals roar back in win over Kobras

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Martensville Royals are giving fans their money’s worth this year.

After being edged by their arch-rivals from Warman in the dying seconds of their last home game a couple weeks ago, the boys in blue weren’t about to let another close one slip away.

The Royals downed the visiting Kindersley Kobras 2719 on Friday, October 3 at Geransky Field. But the “cardiac kids” did it the hard way, spotting their opponents a six-point lead with less than three minutes to go in the final quarter, and then roaring back with two touchdowns in the last minute and a half of the game.

“Whew, yeah, it was a bit too exciting at the end there,” said Royals coach Lyle Evanisky as the team celebrated after the game. “Our offense started off hot, and then finished hot when we needed them to. But they kind of stalled a bit in the middle. Our last game at home we lost a close one, so it’s nice to come out on top in this one.”

It was the first meeting of the regular season between the

Royals and Kobras, and was important in determining playoff berths in the 9-man football conference. The win puts the Royals at two wins and two losses, the same record as Meadow Lake; while Delisle and Warman each improved to four wins and zero losses so far. Kindersley and John Paul II (North Battleford) share the basement with zero wins and four losses each. This week’s upcoming games pit the two front-runners against each other in Warman while Martensville hosts Meadow Lake.

The Royals got off to a strong start in last Friday’s game, as Martensville’s perennial workhorse, Brayden Heck, scored a touchdown on the Royals’ first offensive drive. He kicked his own convert to give the home team a 7-0 lead.

But Kindersley answered back late in the first quarter with a converted touchdown of their own to tie things up.

In the second quarter, Heck connected on two field goals, one from 17 yards and one from 15 yards, to make it 13-7 for the Royals. There was no scoring in the third quarter, although Martensville had its share of first downs thanks to the ef-

forts of quarterback Brodey Kliewer and running backs Keegan Lussier and Ryley DeCorby. Defensively, the Royals’ Richard Moulding had an outstanding game.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, Kindersley’s E.J. Selby shook off several tackles to score on a ten-yard touchdown run. The ensuing convert was blocked, which tied the score at 13-13. With momentum on their side, the Kobras’ Kyle Donaldson scored another touchdown with just under three minutes to go to give the visitors a 19-13 lead. (The convert was blocked.)

Just when it looked like the lights were about to be turned off for the Royals, Kliewer delivered a picture-perfect pass to Heck, who rambled into the end zone to cap off a 70-yard play. His convert gave the Royals a razor-thin 20-19 lead with a minute and a half to go.

On the Kobras’ ensuing drive, the Royals’ Moulding intercepted an errant pass at the Martensville 12 yard line.

The Royals drove relentlesslyy downfield and put the game away on a touchdown run by Lussier and a final convert by Heck.

“Kindersley always plays hard,” said Evanisky. “They’re a strong team, they’re fast and they’re well-coached. So this was a strong test for our guys.

This was one we had to win.”

Warman, Delisle each claim fourth straight win

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Warman Wolverines and Delisle Rebels are gearing up for a showdown on Thursday, October 9.

The two first-place teams are going head-to-head in Warman for the right to claim top spot in the 9-man football conference, and to determine playoff berths later this month.

Warman rolled over the Meadow Lake Spartans 47-31 on Thursday, October 2 in Meadow Lake. It was the third road game in a row for the Wolverines, and coach Tyler Scheidt says the team is very much looking forward to a home game.

“It was a cold, miserable day in Meadow Lake, but the kids did well, and it was good preparation for playoff weather,” said Scheidt. “Our defense gave up

four touchdowns, but otherwise they didn’t give up much at all, and they are getting better every week. Our offense completed one pass, but the running game was pretty good. We had some nice long runs.”

Warman went ahead 20-17 at the half, and never looked back after that. With five minutes left in the game, Warman led 47-17, but the Spartans were able to narrow the gap late in the fouth quarter on the strength of several sustained drives.

DELISLE UNDEFEATED

The Delisle Rebels, meanwhile, beat the John Paul II Crusaders in North Battleford by a score of 29-16 on Thursday, October 2.

It was a close contest, and the Rebels were able to pull out the win despite being down 16-15 with less than three minutes to

go in the fourth quarter.

“We marched down the field in our two final possesssions to ice the victory,” said Byers.

“It was a tough contest because the weather conditions were less than idea, and by that I mean the wind was blowing at 44 km/hr and the temperature was 1 degree, so with the wind chill it was about -5.”

Byers said while the team is proud of its four straight wins, it’s still a “reloading” year.

“We only have one starting Grade 12 player on our entire roster,” said Byers. “And only three Grade 12s on the roster altogether, so there’s lots of inexperience on the team. I didn’t really know what to expect going into this year, but I’m thrilled with how the season has gone. The kids are working hard and they’re learning how to make adjustments during the game.”

Hanley Sabers defeat visiting Caronport Cougars Vipers out-shoot Outlaws

By WAYNE SHIELS

essenceofsask@gmail.com

The Hanley Sabers used a very dominant second half performance to defeat the Caronport Cougars 68-46 in the game played at Hanley on Friday, October 3.

Hanley enjoyed a 12-0 lead before Caronport had an opportunity to run its first play as the Saber’ ‘special teams executed two consecutive successful on-side kicks that QB Tareq Halabi then turned into TDs with his great running ability.

Caronport responded with two rushing TDs by their QB Aaron Adrian. The visitors took the lead when Thomas Grey scored on an end around run. Hanley evened the score 22-22 before halftime when Halabi hit Marshall Prosofsky for a 60 yard catch and run.

The first half had been two evenly matched teams going toe-to-toe. That was about to change. As the Sabers were walking to their locker room, Coach Mark Anderson and his staff were already working on adjustments.

The Sabers would dominate most of the second half as Halabi ran for two more TDs, and threw TD passes to Reid Ashdown and Marshall Prosofsky.

The defence effectively shutdown Caronport and contributed to the scoring early in the third quarter when Brody Bassett scored on a 90 yard interception return. Special teams executed their third successful on-side kick when Reid Ashdown went high to grab the kick and ran between two Cougar defenders for a TD. Caronport did manage two fourth quarter TDs to make the final score 68-46 for the home squad.

Coach Anderson felt the game was a good learning experience for his team. “We came out strong and I think the guys thought we had it in the bag, but that is what happens in 6-man ball,” said Anderson.

On the difference between the two halfs he added: “Caronport played a great first half. We went in and talked about was hurting us and shut that down pretty well. Offensively we took advantage of some things we saw.”

Chiefs bounce back from opening loss

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Delisle Chiefs lost their season opener, an 11-4 pounding by the Saskatoon Westleys on Wednesday, October 1; but gained a measure of self-respect last weekend by splitting a pair of games.

The Chiefs defeated the Saskatoon Royals 6-2 on Friday, October 3, but dropped a 7-2 loss to the Tri-Town Thunder on Sunday, October 5.

In Wednesday’s game, the Chiefs’ Trevor Atamanenko opened up the scoring in the first period, but the Westleys’ responded with four to take a commanding 4-1 lead into the dressing room.

In the second period Antho-

ny Radke was able to place two behind the pipes, with one coming on the power play, but the Westley’s answered with three of their own to run away with the game before the horn blew in the second period.

In the third period Atamanenko scored his second of the game while the Westleys added four to round out the scoring to 11-4.

Saturday’s tilt saw the Chiefs’ Josh Murray, Jase Smalcel, Jackson Hill and Ryan Fredrickson each score to take a 4-1 lead in the first while Brett Armstrong scored the lone goal for the Royals.

There was no scoring in the second period, but in the third the Chiefs’ Tanner Hilkewich and Anthony Radke cushioned

the Chiefs’ lead to 6-1 before Tanner Webb scored the final goal for the Royals in the third period.

In Sunday’s matchup the TriTown Thunder and the Chiefs both drew even after the first period with Eric Asbjornhus and Kynan Tarnowski providing the offence for the Chiefs.

The Tri-Town Thunder owned the rest of the game scoring four in the second period and once in the third to finalize scoring at 7-2.

The Chiefs will take on the Saskatoon Quakers and West Central Rage on the road this week and will face the Traveland RV Storm at home on Sunday, October 17. Game time is 3 p.m.

ings. Those two teams are slated to play in Hanley on Thursday, October 9 at 4:00 p.m.

The Sask Valley Vipers kicked off their regular season with a close 2-1 win over the Saskatoon Outlaws at Warman’s Legends Centre on Saturday, October 4.

The Vipers’ snipers outshot the Outlaws 52 to 22 and would have had more goals if it wasn’t for Outlaws’ goaltender Cale Elder, whose solid performance allowed his team to stay in the game.

The contest wasn’t just about offense, though. There were defensive battles throughout the game, especially in the no-goal first period, which demonstrated the solid work ethic of both teams.

Early in the second period, hulking Trent Keewatin broke the stalemate with a goal scored on a rebound opportunity to give the Vipers at 1-0 lead.

Minutes later on a power play the Outlaws chipped the puck from the side boards, down the ice and crashed the puck into Vipers goalie Jake Davidson’s crease. Davidson

thought he made the glove save but with his mitt over the line, the goal stood, allowing the Outlaws to tie the game.

The Vipers answered back with less than five minutes to go in the second period when Martensville’s Keewatin, again on a pass from Jaxon White, blasted the puck from the high slot, hitting the inside left goal post and out to Quinn MacDonald, who pounced on the rebound and slid it past Elder to give the Vipers a 2-1 lead. That closed off the period and led to a showdown in the third.

Despite chances on both sides of the ice, Davidson demonstrated why he is the Vipers go-to kid in net by stopping two point blank stops at the eight minute mark, including one where he flopped down onto the ice in effort to stop an Outlaw sniper from tucking one in.

It was two of a handful of great doorstep style opportunities the Outlaws had against the Vipers’ goaltender, which frustrated shooters.

Cold doesn’t hamper Hague Panthers

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The younger players on the Hague Panthers team got plenty of field experience last Thursday, October 2, during a 99-14 win over the visiting Aberdeen Crusaders.

In the three-team conference, total points make a difference when it comes to final standings and playoff berths.

Hague coach Clay Kirby said the game provided an opportunity to give Grade 10 kids a chance to start, and also to give equal playing time to everyone.

“Dalton Duprez made a 17yard field goal, and we didn’t have any turnovers,” said Kir-

by.

He added that the other highlight was that it didn’t rain.

With the cold, that would have made things pretty miserable for players and fans alike, he said.

Kirby said the team is gearing up for playoffs. “We’re enjoying the success we’re having this year and we look forward to the future,” he said.

Aberdeen coach Justin Olnhoff noted the game was close at the beginning, when Matthew Newton returned Hague’s first kickoff for a touchdown, which tied the score early in the first quarter.

“The exciting start had our

boys fired up to play tough each and every play,” said Olnhoff.

“With some key players missing on defence, it made some younger players step up and give it all they had in some key roles. We were happy with our offence as we managed to continue to improve our passing game especially.”

Dealing with the cold also helped prepare the players for the rest of the season, said Olnoff. “Despite the windy weather it was a great day for football and a great game. Our boys played their absolute best each play and held their heads high in true Crusader fashion.”

I have a trip planned for Yellowknife for me & my sister who lives in Florida, celebrating her 40th wedding anniversary in March. I am a social person, & being a professional in my field, I am invited to many functions & events.

It would be wonderful to have a man who enjoys that kind of thing, but I do like to stay at home too. I have always had a thing for a man with a motorbike. There are many places in Canada I would love see on a road trip.

So, life has changed for me since my husband passed away. At 49 I would like to meet a nice person. I come from a large farming family with many, many aunts & uncles, cousins, sisters & a brother. I am an executive, so my work is great. I am very lucky to have such a wonderful career and will retire early thanks to some good financial decisions that I made.

Vipers goaltender is the go-to guy Shaun Priel, head coach of the Vipers, said Davidson is playing to expectations.

“Jake is coming back as our senior go-to guy so that’s what we expect out of him,” said Priel. “He didn’t do anything that I was surprised at. He is one of the top goaltenders in the province and that is what we expect to see every time out.”

It was also the first time the Vipers 2014-15 roster played a regular season game with the current lineup without the benefit of exhibi-

tion games beforehand. Priel said he thought his team played well, with lots of time to correct mistakes and build on some of the team’s strengths in the opening game.

“We had some flashes out there where it looked like we had something going as a group and times where each individual shift there were some chaotic things going on,” said Priel. “You know this is what we expect from these guys early in the year. We plan to continue growing every time out.”

While his team did have some bad turnovers, Priel thought his team recovered well.

“They were able to get on the defensive side of the puck, which we are always preaching,” said Priel. “Those are big things in defending. If you are in position to make plays to keep the other team in spots on the ice where they are not going to get offensive chances you are doing a good job.”

The Vipers roster this year includes eight players from Warman, two from Martensville, and the remainder from Loreburn, Osler, Asquith, Delisle, Allan, Aberdeen and Shellbrook.

The Vipers played the Bandits this week and will travel to Melville to face off against the Millionaires this Saturday. Game time is 1:30 p.m.

Is there a better place for Huskies football fans to be on Game Day than Griffiths Stadium?

The short answer is: are you kidding?

The game day experience at the venerable stadium on the U of S campus is one of the best in CIS football.

This is especially true for the Annual Blackout Game where the stadium is completely darkened for the introductions and at halftime. The only illumination are from glow sticks held by fans who get to enjoy spectacular pyrotechnics and fireworks with the halftime show being as intense of you can see anywhere.

This year’s Blackout Game on Saturday, October 4 saw the Huskies host the UBC Thunderbirds. It will definitely be memorable for what happened after the halftime show.

As the Huskies and T-Birds were coming onto the field after their halftime break the smoke from the fireworks slowly filtered onto the field, causing a delay of 40 minutes before construction fans were brought in to create a wind current to move the smoke out.

Huskies coach Brian Towriss commented as the two teams went back to their locker rooms: “How many nights do you have zero wind in Saskatoon?”

Thunderbirds coach Shawn Olson was clearly frustrated with the delay as he consulted with game officials as the Thunderbirds went back to their locker room.

The electric fans worked to clear the smoke and game was able to resume with the Huskies hanging on to beat UBC 31-25 to improve their record to 4-1.

Their next home game is Saturday, October 25 against the U of A Golden Bears. Game time is 1:30 at Griffiths Stadium in PotashCorp Park.

Martensville Royals and Warman Wolverines players battle for the ball during a game in Warman on Thursday, October 2

Warman, Martensville soccer squads tangle

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

At least it wasn’t snowing.

That was about the only mercy shown by the elements on Thursday, October 2 when the Warman Wolverines senior boys soccer team played host to their arch-rivals, the Martensville Royals, at Arthur Neufeld Field in Warman.

The match-up was the third of the regular season for the two teams, and this time the Wolverines came out on top, winning the game 5-2 despite playing three men short for most of the game.

“Some of our players are also on the football team, and they’re in Meadow Lake today,” said Russell Dyck, Vice-Principal of Warman High School and coach of the soccer team.

“The guys did a great job today, battling both the weather and fatigue.”

Martensville had won the second contest between the two teams earlier this season after the first game concluded in a 4-4 tie, and Royals co-coach Kate McKinnon said she felt the squads were pretty evenly matched.

competitive,” McKinnon said.

“The important thing is the kids are having fun. For a lot of them, this is the only opportunity they get to play the game because they don’t participate in club teams. We play Osler VCA in our next game, which will be a seven-on-seven format.”

Graydon Stebaniuk, co-coach of the Royals, said the team is looking forward to regionals, hosted by Warman, on October 17 and 18. Warman High School hosts the Senior Boys Soccer Provincials the following weekend, October 24 and 25.

Province now covers annual eye exams for diabetics People living with diabetes in Saskatchewan will benefit from improved access to vision care.

The province now provides coverage for annual eye examinations for diabetic patients, effective October 1, 2014.

“Maintaining good eye health is an important aspect of diabetes management,” Health Minister Dustin Duncan said.

“This new service will remove financial barriers and ensure

timely access to vision care for people living with diabetes in our province.”

Clinical practice guidelines for the management of residents with diabetes recommend annual eye exams to ensure optimal monitoring and care.

The newly introduced coverage will reduce out-of-pocket costs, improve access to an eye examination, and facilitate early treatment of eye issues related

to diabetes.

The eye exam coverage for diabetics is part of a new agreement between the Ministry of Health and the Saskatchewan Association of Optometrists.

Annual eye examinations are currently covered by the province for all children under the age of 18.

Saskatchewan has also proclaimed October as Children’s Vision Month.

Dundurn development solar-ready said one of the drawing cards for the Dundurn development is its designation as a “solarfriendly” community. Certain lots will be designated as “solar- ready” and will have solar panels installed on the roof of the home. Dodman said the 250 kilowatt panels would allow the homeowner to have a “zero net metering” arrangement with SaskPower, resulting in a credit for the homeowner on their electricity bill.

“During the day, when the sun is shining, the parents are at work and the kids at school, there is no energy being consumed. That solar panel is going to produce power to put back into the grid system and offset what they use later when they get home,” said Dodman.

“At the end of the year, it bal-

ances out.”

Dodman said the technology is well-established in other provinces, including Ontario, and is currently being installed on many homes in new developments here in Saskatchewan.

Jason Hill, Principal of the K-6 Dundurn School, said enrolment has been increasing at a modest but steady pace for the last few years.

“When I started as principal two years ago, we had 131 students,” said Hill. “Now our enrolment is at 170. Most of our new students are in the primary grades, and they are coming from Shields, Thode and the Dundurn base. But this new development here in town could have a huge impact on our school.”

Hill said while the school

Steel Buildings Specialists Members of the BBB CWB Certified Call Brian at 306-222-8614 Dundurn, SK www.stormstructures.com

could accommodate some additional students, a massive increase in a short time will likely mean relocatable classrooms will have to be brought in.

John Kuzbik, Director of Education with Prairie Spirit School Division, said it takes three to four years before any new schools or additions are approved by the province, so “most of the accommodation of new students, if it becomes necessary, will most likely be through relocatable classrooms.”
