Two injured in crash at Warman north entrance

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Two people were injured in a two-vehicle collision at the north entrance to Warman on Highway 11 on Tuesday, October 14.

The collision, which occurred about 4:30 p.m., happened at the start of the daily commuter rush hour, and involved an eastbound fourdoor sedan and a northbound SUV. The 18-year-old female driver of the sedan was treated at the scene by Warman First Responders. The 31-year-old female driver of the SUV had more serious injuries and was taken by MD Ambulance to hospital in Saskatoon with undetermined injuries.

Ken Siemens, a witness to the collision, said the eastbound white sedan was stopped at the median betwen the divided highway and was waiting to proceed across the northbound lanes. A line of traffic waiting to turn west into Warman was backed up the railway overpass on Highway 11.

“It looked like someone waiting to turn west motioned to the driver of the sedan to go across,” said Siemens. “The car proceeded through and collided with the SUV that

Elstow looking to drop from village to hamlet status

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Village of Elstow held a public meeting in the hopes of becoming part of the RM of Blucher at the Elstow Agricultural Hall, October 19.

Village administration sent out a public notice to ratepayers on October 6 with the intention of discussing the reasons behind the restructuring and give ratepayers the opportunity to reject the proposal if they have concerns.

Elstow Mayor Mark Wylie said a petition to rejoin the RM of Blucher was sent out a year before he was elected to council in 2013 with the majority of Village residents in favour of joining the RM.

Wylie estimates that the population of the village is less than 100 people and the small tax base can no longer support the infrastructure upgrades desperately needed in the village.

“We need shut off valves, upgrades to our lagoon, water system gravel roads and culverts,” said Wylie. “There isn’t a bunch of grants out there anymore to help you get this done. Our tax base is to the point where you can only do so much every time and it has piled up to the point where there is really no way we can get it done.”

Wylie also said when he became mayor the village wasn’t in the best financial shape, which didn’t help.

“When we walked in after the election in 2013 it was a mess. We are all up to date on everything now and everything is back in order,” said Wylie.

Zelma McAdam, administrator for the Village of Elstow was a big part of getting the village back on track. McAdam estimates that there are about 12 full roads on both sides of the tracks that need upgrading.

The public meeting included two government municipal advisors who answered questions residents had with restructuring the village, McAdam said the Ministry of Municipal Relations really has the final say with allowing the village to rejoin the

Doran Scott administrator for the RM of Blucher, said the RM can take on responsibility of the village, which would be a hamlet under the RM, but said it has to be in the best interests of the residents of Elstow and the RM. Scott said the RM is currently in talks with the village to try and come up with an agreement that both parties will be comfortable with.

With the public consultation complete the village has to wait until the end of October to see if there are any objections from ratepayers.

An application will then be sent to the ministry in late November.

Developer files statement of claim against RM

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

A Saskatoon developer has filed an outstanding statement of claim against the RM of Corman Park indicating that he wasn’t given the correct information when trying to develop a parcel of land south of Saskatoon.

Nick Katsiris, co-owner of Christmas Properties, claims he was told by RM staff that a permit was not necessary when he started to haul gravel to develop a parcel of land he bought from a neighbour in 2010.

When Katsiris first inquired about developing the parcel, he claims RM staff told him that he would have to build up the approach – which he did. But the amount of fill already brought to the parcel, including 9,000 of the total 50,000 cubic meters that would be required to develop the parcel, drew alarms from area residents who had concerns about drainage issues in an area where the water table is already extremely high.

The parcel of land has been zoned D-Commercial 2 District (DC2) since 2010 when a new Zoning Bylaw was put in place within the Corman Park-Saskatoon Planning District, said RM of Corman Park Administrator Adam Tittemore.

“When those new zoning designations were put in place there were some properties that had to be rezoned to reflect the new zoning categories as some of the old ones didn’t exist anymore,” said Tittemore. “There would have been advertisements published and every affected landowner in that area who would have had a direct change to their land q RM of Corman Park would have received a direct noAdministrator Adam Tittemore tice.”

In most cases when a developer buys a parcel of land to develop in Corman Park it depends first on where the parcel is located and if it requires rezoning and development permits, said Tittemore.

“If a developer asks for a parcel of land to be rezoned the RM may require information including road access, traffic demand on the road they would be using depending on the density, turning lanes, slow down lanes, highway access points, safe building elevations and compatibility with different land uses,” explained Tittemore.

There is also a public consultation process which can be approached two ways.

“In this situation when it was recognized there was an issue there we made every effort to work with the developer and come to compromise where it’s a win-win for everybody.”

Hague firefighters stabilize the driver of a vehicle after removing the roof using extrication equipment during a mock accident staged in front of Hague High School on Wednesday, October 15

REALITY BITES

Students get a taste of consequences of bad decisions

By TERRY PUGH

accident to educate students about the dangers of drinking and driving. “Accidents like this happen all the time in this province. Saskatchewan doesn’t have a very good track record.

“This is quite often what it looks like,” said McCombs.

The first responders and firefighters, all volunteers with the Hague Fire Department, treated the injured on site and stabilized them until paramedics from MD Ambulance arrived. RCMP officers from the Rosthern detachment questioned the passengers and driver and collected evidence. Firefighters used power tools to remove the roof prior to extricating two of the vehicle’s occupants.

The four students who volunteered to play the role of accident victims said the experience made a big impression on them.

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

It’s a story that’s all-too familiar to first responders, paramedics and police officers in Saskatchewan.

They receive a call that a vehicle with four teenagers has rolled on a rural gravel road in the early morning hours.

They arrive to find three of the young people suffering from injuries.

The fourth youth is already dead.

That was the graphic scenario played out in front of the student body at Hague High School on Wednesday, October 15, as emergency responders showed what happens in the wake of a serious collision.

“Trauma is the leading cause of death for young people in Saskatchewan,” said Bill McCombs, owner of TransCare Rescue in Langham, who helped coordinate the mock

*with SaskTel monthly financing, some conditions apply.

“It wasn’t real, but it sure felt real,” said Caleb Geddert, who was cast as the injured and inebriated driver. “When they were cutting away the roof with those saws, it was awful loud and awful close.”

Austin Gregorash, another student who volunteered as a victim, agreed. “It really was pretty intense,” he said, a sentiment echoed by Vanessa Stefaniuk and Sydney Thiessen, the other two students in the car.

Captain Mike Gregorash with the Hague Fire Department said the mock accident is aimed at giving young people a graphic, no-holds-barred picture of what tragedy looks like.

“We’re hoping the kids get a better understanding of how it affects not only the particular person involved in the accident, but also how it affects everybody around them,” said Gregorash. “Especially in a smaller commuity, it’s a reality

that we deal with quite often.”

Gregorash said the objective is to impress on young people the need to have a safe way home if they’re going to party.

“High school kids are at an age where they’re driving and looking for a good time, and they need to see for themelves the dangers of drinking and driving,” he said. “They need to know they can call their parents or an aunt or uncle or a friend.”

The students watching the drama unfold in front of them benefited from an ongoing commentary by McCombs.

They realized it was all staged, but there was an unexpected silence at the end of the simulated drama, as a blanket was placed over the female student portraying the deceased person as she lay motionless on the street. That scene clearly made an impression on everyone.

Lockout drags on at Richardson oat plant

By TERRY PUGH

according to Neault.

Neault said the employer has also sent individual letters to workers asking them to cross the picket line and come back to work individually.

“That was a surprise. It wasn’t what we envisioned because it really undermines the collective bargaining process.

It seems to be a tactic to try and divide the group for their own ends, and we’re not sure why.”

Neault said while no workers have crossed the picket line some have taken on employment elsewhere to supplement their picket pay. Truckers and farmers delivering oats to the facility, meanwhile, have not been prevented from entering and exiting.

“There is a strong resolve among the members to stick together,” he said.

Lilly Olson, a staff representative with UFCW Local 1400 who was helping on the picket line on October 15, said the morale among the workers is still quite high. “People are in good spirits on the line,” she said.

“The experience has made them much more united because they’ve gotten to know each other while on the line.”

Neault said the union is looking for a new contract that pro-

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

A lockout at the Richardson International oat processing plant north of Martensville is entering its sixth week, with no end in sight.

Workers at the facility, located west of Highway 12 along the CN main line, were locked out on September 10 by company officials. The 34 workers, members of the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 1400, have been walking an informational picket line at the entrance to the facility 24 hours a day, seven days a week, since then.

So far, the weather has made the ordeal liveable, but workers say they’re anxious to see some movement in the labour dispute.

“It’s not a great situation, but the members of the union are making the best of it,” said UFCW Local 1400 President Norm Neault in an interview.

“They certainly have a good cause. They’re trying to get equality and fairness for everyone with regard to pay scales.”

Neault said the union “extended an olive branch” to the employer asking for a meeting.

A response was received on October 14, but it was not positive,

✶ THIS WEEK SPECIALS IN-STORE ✶ • Book your garage now • We pour concrete, shingle, apply siding/soffit and O/H doors • Or just purchase the Material package

vides “industry-standard wages, and a fair pay scale based on experience with annual increases.”

Requests for interviews or comments from Richardson International were not returned to the Gazette. However, in previous press statements company spokesperson Tracy Shelton, director of corporate communications for Richardson International, said the company provided a final offer on September 10 that gave employees the same terms and conditions they have now, along with wage increases, based on performance, above market level.

The mill was purchased by Richardson from Viterra in May, 2014. The workers’ contract with the former owner expired October 31, 2013, and they have been without a collective bargaining agreement since then.

Workers with CN Rail take measurements and mark off sections of rails that need to be replaced at the CN Crossing on Highway 12 north of Martenville on October 15

Motorists face delays on area highways as projects get completed

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Motorists were obliged to put up with several detours and delays on area highways over the past week.

The provincial Ministry of Highways set up temporary detours on Highway 12 north of Martensville and Highway 16 between Clavet and Floral on Thursday, October 16.

The detours were set up in cojunction with CN Rail to allow the company to perform railway repairs. The detours were expected to be in effect for one day from dawn till dusk.

Highway 12 was closed north of the junction with Highway 305 to allow CN to make repairs to a railway crossing. Travellers southbound on Highway 12 were redirected west onto Power Line Road, south onto Rose Leaf Road and east onto Highway 305 before being reconnected with Highway 12.

Northbound travellers were redirected east onto Highway 305, north onto Rock Ridge Road and west onto Power Line Road before reconnecting with High-

way 12.

Highway 16 was closed between Clavet and Floral to allow CN Rail to replace railway tracks. across the highway, which necessitated traffic merging into a single lane in both directions.

Delays and detours were also the order of the day over the past week on Highway 305 as construction crews completed work at intersections with Highway 12, 11 and the old Highway 305.

Lutheran Road, 10th Avenue South access now open for Martensville commuters Traffic entering and exiting Martensville now has a new route to follow.

With the opening of 10th Avenue South to Lutheran Road, the provincial Ministry of Highways is now moving to alter the old Martensville South Access on Highway 12 to a “right turn only” access.

Highways Ministry spokesperson Steve Shaheen said motorists turning south onto Highway 12 from Martensville are now advised to use Lutheran Road.

“As part of the ongoing safety improvements on Highway 12,

the Martensville south access median crossing is closed,” said Shaheen. “The Martensville south access will continue to operate as a right in and right out from Centennial Drive.

Motorists leaving Martensville onto Highway 12 will have three southbound access points including the newly constructed 10th Avenue to Lutheran Road access point as well as Main Street and Highway 305.

Northbound traffic into Martensville will still be able to use the right in at the South Access.

Canadians should be encouraged to keep paying off mortgages

By JEFFREY SCHWARTZ

Executive Director Consolidated Credit Counseling Services

Canadians are making an effort to silence the fears of the Bank of Canada. Despite the central bank’s worries about rising household debt and poor job numbers, Canadians are making moves to lower the risk of default.

And they’re doing it at a “pace not seen before,” according to a new report from CIBC World Markets.

The mortgage report pointed out: ·Canadians are paying back an extra $11 billion a year in principal that isn’t being recognized by the Bank of Canada. ·Bigger payments pushed the average amortization period down to an estimated 20 years rather than the assumed 25 years the Bank of Canada uses in calculations. ·The average credit score has trended upward over the past five years, in all regions and age groups across the country.

This is encouraging news. There can be a lot of doom-and-gloom in the financial section of your newspaper. But this is fantastic – Canadians are putting their disposable income toward paying down their mortgage and it’s an incredible display of restraint and willpower. Canadians should pay down their debts as quickly as possible, even if they can only put a little extra toward their payments each month. More focus on paying down debt will mean they are in debt for a shorter period and pay less interest over the long run. And it can also help protect Canadians against unexpected shifts, such as increased interest rates or a weakened housing market.

Here are some tips on how Canadians can stay the course and continue shrinking their debt: * Know the good you’re doing – Mental toughness is a big part of personal finance and in your weaker moments, a new TV or a winter vacation might look a lot better than making a drop in the mortgage bucket. * Make a budget and stick to it – Keeping track of every dollar you spend help syou achieve your goals over the long term. Keep track of your money with a budgeting app and make sure you stick to the plan. * Focus on wants vs needs – Don’t get sucked in by impulse purchases and please forget about keeping up with the Joneses. * Reward yourself – Many diet and fitness programs have a “cheat day,” where you can indulge in your favourite comfort food. Budgeting should be the same way. * If it’s harder than it sounds, seek help – Sound money management is not easy, and there are a lot of resources out there to help you keep debt under control.

Well, there is no doubt there is a direct correlation between the province’s economic wealth of the past decade and the upswing in oil and gas drilling.

But that doesn’t necessarily mean that those closest to the oil are benefitting the most ... or for that matter, are always completely delighted about the arrangement of oil companies coming on their land to drill.

“I think there is a misconception that farmers are getting rich off this (surface rights agreements),” said Emily Ea-

ver mine in Colorado.

Fortune Minerals has said this is because of the former mine owner’s abysmal safety record, but in my mind all this casts doubt on Fortune Minerals, as well as on the idea that a local monitoring group from Langham, Dalmeny and the RM of Corman Park will have the ability to know if and when Fortune Minerals might be breaking safety rules at their proposed Langham location.

Many in our community are already very uncomfortable with Fortune Minerals. Residents are asking themselves: “Is this a corporation we want as our neighbour?”

If you are new to Saskatchewan, a new graduate or just someone who is looking for a cheaper rental property, there is stiff competition in Saskatoon and area.

That’s because there simply are not enough options out there.

Yes, it makes much more sense to buy a home rather than rent. The option of owning something that is truly yours and a piece of property that can help build equity instead of helping to pay a landlord’s mortgage is something a lot of renters have to deal with.

Renting truly is horrible. In most cases you are either paying too much, have to deal with noisy neighbours or a landlord who will try his or her hardest to do as little as possible when it comes to fixing that tub that won’t drain or furnace that somehow won’t kick in when it is -30.

ton, associate professor at the University of Regina’s Department of Geography, who is currently studying the impact of the oil economy on rural Saskatchewan. “They`re not.”

Contrary to the belief of many city people; and maybe some rural neighbours as well; most farmers don`t hold the mineral rights to their land. In most cases, those rights were long ago lost; sometimes sold by previous owners or grandparents or great grandparents to get through tougher times.

Surface rights leases are just compensation for intruding on the property and taking land out of production.

Of course, there are many farmers or ranchers who have no problem with the private lease right arrangements they have struck with the oil companies that provide extra cash for the farming or ranching operations. But there are others who

are both unhappy with their arrangement and very unhappy with both the process and act under which these leases are made.

Eaton said the average lease arrangement is between $1,500 and $3,000 a year, which sometimes doesn`t cover the cost of taking the land out of production, let alone the cost of salt water damage, access roads, natural gas flare offs or other factors that may have a lasting impact.

Miles Vass, president of the Southeast Saskatchewan Landowners Group, is even more blunt, suggesting that most farmers and ranchers wouldn`t want drilling on their land if they had any choice in the matter. However, because oil and gas are deemed provincially held resources owned by everyone, landowners can`t really refuse access.

Vass laments the cumber-

some appeal process and the tactics used by some oil companies to get landowners to agree to leases which are accompanied with confidentiality clauses.

And like many others, he recognizes it’s not very fashionable to complain about the oil industry in a lot of Saskatchewan communities that do benefit from the job and economic boom that it brings.

At the very least, ranch and farmland owners would at least like to see changes to the Surface Rights Act that comes before the legislature this fall, changes that would result in drilling moved further away from occupied dwellings and a farmers’ advocate that could aid them in dispute resolution.

But most aren’t very confident the Saskatchewan Party government will agree to meaningful changes, especially with former energy minister Tim McMillan leaving government to head the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP).

“This looks terrible and it is terrible,” Eaton said. “Tim McMillan was involved in the Surface Rights Act study. He’s had direct access to the details of landowners’ individual complaints with it. He has a lot of access to things CAPP could be using as a strategy.”

However, current Energy Minister Bill Boyd said McMillan left before the draft legislation was written and vows that the Sask. Party government will ensure the new law is fair and balanced.

“I think we should wait and see what we accomplish (with the legislation),” Boyd said. “I see it as an ongoing concern and an issue that has to be dealt with.”

Certainly, those with pump jacks on their land are anxiously waiting to see what happens.

Saskatchewan’s booming economy needs more rental options

Fortune’s safety record questioned

Reader Opinions As a resident of Corman Park municipality where Fortune Minerals is proposing to build their new gold processing plant, I was alarmed to find out that Fortune Minerals has recently purchased the Revenue Silver Mine in Colorado, USA. On August 19 of this year, an accident at their new Colorado mine resulted in an air ambulance evacuation of an injured miner. According to US law, mine owners are required to report all accidents, but new mine owners Fortune Minerals did not make the required report to the appropriate authorities. As a result, Fortune Minerals is now engaged with state and federal authorities for safety violations at its Revenue Sil-

true. I experienced this myself recently and I don’t want to give the impression that my struggle finding rental accommodation is any different than anyone else’s.

If you check the most popular apartment list website Kajijjii. the price range for a three bedroom house for a family with two children averages between $1200 and $3000 in Saskatoon, and that price range is not really much different in Warman or Martensville.

Those prices are not going to change as long as the province’s boom continues.

One of the most interesting aspects of renting is the pro-

cess, which is hugely driven by the boom.

People who can afford to pay both the damage deposit and rent up-front are pushed to the front of the line by landlords, which makes me wonder if landlords are evaluating a tenant based on their ability to pay.

If you want responsible tenants, wouldn’t it be better to check for references?

The ability to pay rent is just one aspect of being a responsible tenant.

In the last month I have probably visited with 15 potential landlords, all of whom have told me that the interviews went well.

But then they inform me later that my family is not a good fit.

Then there are renters who are discriminated against because they have a cat or dog. In the past the landlord may have been taken advantage of by ir-

responsible pet owners, which makes it difficult for pet owners who are responsible to get their foot in the door. No pun intended.

I am part of this group.

But what are you supposed to do? Force yourself to get rid of a 14-year-old dog you’ve had for many years because no landlord will accept your animal?

There are some landowners who won’t even allow kids, which is not realistic.

It is the reality of renting in Saskatoon and I know it must create a lot of stress for young families who do not earn the average City of Saskatoon annual income of $72,000.

Planning for where Saskatoon will be five, ten or twenty years down the road with any Official Community Plan is important.

Providing more rental living space in a fast-growing city is equally important.

Martensville Cemetery plots now available for purchase Residents wishing to choose Martensville as their final resting place can now do so.

The first phase of the new 7.5acre cemetery located east of Martensville on Township Road 384 and south on Range Road 3052 is now complete.

Dalmeny Fire and Rescue

Dalmeny Fire and Rescue has installed a new Automated External Defibrillator (AED) in the Dalmeny mall, thanks to the generous donations from the citizens of Dalmeny at their annual pancake breakfast in May. The AED plays a critical role in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest in a community. When a person stops breathing their heart will soon stop beating, and a person’s chance of survival decreases about 10 per cent per minute, unless immediate action is taken.

By training the citizens of Dalmeny in CPR and how to use an AED, this can increase the person’s survival rate by up to 80 per cent if you start CPR immediately and have the first shock from the AED delivered in under five minutes.

Emergency personnel cannot get to the person typically in less than five minutes.

To date, 51 people in Dalmeny have come out for the free training provided by Dalmeny Fire and Rescue to learn theses critical life saving techniques that will make a difference in someone’s life.

will hold a lot of meaning for many residents, particularly those who have lived here for many years, and who wish to be laid to rest here.”

Phase I of the cemetery includes 296 casket lots, 282 cremation lots, half of which can accommodate two cremated remains. Phase I also includes a columbaria section where remains can be stored.

The city has been working with Hilton Landmarks Inc., a company that specializes in cemetery consulting, planning and design, since 2009.

While a time frame is yet to be determined, when complete, the cemetery could provide room for up to 4,000 casket lots, 470 cremation lots, and 248 columbarium niches.

The cemetery will be operated out of City Hall. Anyone interested in a cemetery lot may call 306-931-2166 to inquire about the purchase of lots.

Martensville City Council is expected to give the green light this week to a proposed Emergency Management Plan.

The plan, drafted by Martensville Emergency Measures Organization (EMO) Coordinator Tracy WilsonGerwing, was presented to city council’s Committee of the Whole meeting on Tuesday, October 14. It was slated to be on the agenda of the city council meeting on October 21.

The purpose of the plan is to provide guidelines for preparing for, and responding to, major emergencies and disasters affecting the municipality.

The Emergency Management Plan documents the roles and responsibilites of city departments and other responders during and after a major calamity, and provides an overall framework for rescue and recovery operations.

According to a presentation by Wilson-Gerwing and Martensville Fire Chief Kurtis Dyck at the Committee of the Whole meeting, the plan is intended to protect the safety and health of responders, prevent or limit loss of life, reduce suffering, protect public health, protect critical infrastructure and property, and limit damage to the environment.

The plan identifies various potential hazards, outlines communication protocols, and details roles and responsibilities of various officials and agencies.

A bylaw designed to ban smoking in outdoor parks and public spaces was adopted by Warman City Council on Tuesday, October 14.

The bylaw is similar to one passed by Martensville City Council at a meeting on September 17. The bylaws in both cities are slated to come into effect January 1, 2015.

Both cities pursued parallel bylaws to promote “protection, promotion and preservation of health of residents” by regulating outdoor smoking within city-owned facilities, parks, playgrounds, sports fields, bleachers, and other outdoor seating areas in privately-owned restaurants and licensed premises.

The bylaws for both cities also include a ban on electronic cigarettes, also known as “e-cigarettes” in the places where smoking is prohibited.

The two cities are not the first to regulate outdoor smoking, but are breaking ground by including civicowned facilities. Saskatoon has had a bylaw regulating smoking in privately-owned “outdoor spaces” since 2004.

The ban on smoking includes locations within ten meters of the perimeter of a playground, ten meters from the perimeter of a sports field, bleachers or ball dugout, and six meters from any civic building’s doors or windows. Both cities will post signs explaining the outdoor smoking regulations. The full text of the bylaws are available on Warman and Martensville’s civic websites.

“This bylaw is just one more step toward the City of Warma’s goal of a health-smart and vibrant community for all,” said Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence.

Martensville Mayor Kent Muench said “the City of Martensville is a vibrant community that values active and healthy living. By jointly passing this bylaw with the City of Warman we are showing that not only do we value a healthy community, but we believe as regional partners we can make a difference.”

Jennifer Miller, Vice-President of Health Promotion for the Lung Association of Saskatchewan, applauded the move by both cities.

“Smoke-free places protect the health of the community, while supporting people who want to quit smoking,” Miller said. “This is so important here in Saskatchewan where we continue to have the highest youth smoking rates in Canada.”

City of Warman poised for unprecedented growth, says ICR report

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The City of Warman is projected to grow faster than any other centre in the province over the coming year, according to Josh Welz, economic development officer for Warman.

Speaking at “Business Networking Breakfast” on Wednesday, October 14 sponsored by the City of Warman, Great Plains College and the Warman Chamber of Commerce, Welz said a recent study by ICR Commercial Realty suggests Warman is likely to have a growth rate of 12.6 per cent.

“We are projected to grow faster

than anywhere else in Saskatchewan,” said Welz.

“That shows us the market in this community is very healthy for new and existing business ownJosh Welz ers.”

Welz said the city is also working to encourage a climate that is open to new ideas and is “business-friendly.”

He noted that many new businesses have opened their doors recently, including RBC, Nourish Natural

Health Food Store, Chef’s Market, and others. “A professional chartered accounting firm also recently opened,” he said. “It shows the wealth of opportunity in this city.

We’re moving more and more away from the shadow of being a ‘bedroom community’ and toward a self-sustaining city.”

Warman Deputy Mayor Gary Philipchuk said regional partnerships among municipalities are helping spur growth in the region as a whole.

“There’s a real sense of excitement around the table concerning the boom in the area,” said Philipchuk.

“We will have a major announce-

“Our objective is to have programing that meets labour market demand,” said Neufeld. “We’re always looking for new ideas. One of the new programs we’re working on is a series of short courses to provide essential skills for managers who have not necessarily been trained in management.”

Ernie Quintal, president of the Warman Chamber of Commerce, said the organization continues to grow and is preparing to celebrate its first anniversary. The chamber now has a new board in place and a staff member to assist with programming, sales and development.

Philipchuk said Warman’s growth will be given a boost when the new Highway 305 is opened at the end of October. He noted the City of Warman has invested a lot to improve Centennial Boulevard to the new junction with the realigned 305.

“Weather permitting, there will be a new pathway to Martensville and Highway 12 by the end of October. That’s important to us and to the larger landscape for business.”

Warman planning for new growth

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The city of Warman is annexing a little under 1,000 acres both north and south of the current city limits, and new residential neighbourhoods, schools and commercial centres are on the drawing board over the next few years.

“The annexation proposal was approved by the RM of Corman Park, and we’re just waiting for provincial approval to come through soon,” said to Warman Planning and Development Manager Brad Toth in an interview in mid-October. “The developer has already started grading some of the areas to the north around where the new elementary schools, which were announced by the province last year, and this is where they are going to be located.”

Construction of a new lift station designed to service the southern expansion is currently underway near the south entrance to Warman. It’s the second lift station to be built this year, said Toth, noting the other one is located in the city’s north end and is slated to be operational this month.

The developer of the land is building the lift station in the south end, and the city will take over maintenance of the facility once it is completed.

“Having the developer be responsible for the construction helps with financing costs,” explained Toth. “It doesn’t make sense for the city to put $5 million into that construction when we have a lot of other more immediate priorities.”

Construction permits in Warman this year are at record levels, and the pace doesn’t appear to be slowing down, said Toth.

One of the big projects launched this year is the construction of the North View Mennonite Haven, adjacent to the Warman Mennonite Special Care Home. The multi-million dollar facility will include a variety of care levels, and is expected to take two years to complete.

Meanwhile, building permit numbers are through the roof as builders erect new neighbourhoods.

“We’re working through final approval of the last two stages of the Legends subdivision,” said Toth.

The City is working on Phase 2 of the new development at Prairie Oasis Park, which has seen earthwork and grading done in partnership with Great Plains College Heavy Equipment Operator program. A second crop of students in the program will be working in the area in November to prepare the groundwork for the projected skateboard park, toboggan hill and BMX track.

Toth said the city is planning an open house in late November to display the city’s future growth plan, as well as poten-

tial changes to its Official Community Plan (OCP) and zoning bylaws. The open house will also outline the concept plans for the latest phase of the Southlands neighbourhood and the new Traditions neighbourhood in the city’s north end.

Toth said it’s been a busy summer for roadwork in Warman.

“A lot of our paving and maintenance work has been completed,” he said. “Right now there is still some major work being done on South Railway

Street. We wanted to get the curbs and gutters and base in this year, and paving is slated for next spring. The base needs to settle over the winter before it’s paved.”

A portion of Central Street west of 1st Avenue has been completed, and Toth said the city is planning to include funds in the 2015 municipal budget for additional roadwork on Central Street to Crystal Springs Drive.

The city is working to access provincial funding through the

Urban Connector Program to do some “rehabilitation work” on Central Street.

A portion of Haichert Street is slated to be paved next year as a local improvement initiative, where homeowners are responsible for the cost according to their frontage. “Well over 50 per cent of the residents of the street are in favour of the project,” said Toth.

HIGHWAY 305 OPENING

The new Highway 305 is slated to be completed and in use by the end of October, said Toth. “That’s the information we were given by the Ministry

of Highways, so we’re hoping it is on schedule,” he said. “We have completed the paving of Centennial Boulevard up to the intersection with the new highway, but haven’t completed the intersection itself. We’re waiting for the highway to be completely ready first. We’re working with our engineers and paving crews to complete that transition. Right now the slopes are a little steep at that intersection, but that will be rectified.”

A regional growth and development plan known as Partnership for Growth (P4G) is set to take a major step forward lat-

er this month with a major announcement, noted Toth.

The P4G planning and consultation process began in 2011 and involves the cities of Saskatoon, Warman, and Martensville, the town of Osler and the RM of Corman Park.

“The process was initiated to put together a regional growth and development plan that would look at all aspects of land use and servicing,” said Toth.

“It’s intended to outline the basic objectives of the region, and come up with strategies on how the region can grow and prosper economically.”

Martensville-Saskatoon wastewater treatment project closer to reality Infrastructure improvements underway

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

An engineering study outlining a detailed conceptual plan for the construction of long-term water and wastewater services between the City of Martensville and the City of Saskatoon should be completed by the end of December.

The decision to look at a joint facility was made earlier this year by both municipalities.

The engineering study is currently being conducted by a consulting engineering firm.

It will forecast the water demands and projected wastewater flows for the next 25 years or 20,000 population. It will examine routing options and provide cost estimates to outline a proposed pipeline route and potential locations of pumping stations.

The final report is slated to be completed by December 31, and it will then go to Martensville and Saskatoon city councils, according to Martensville Director of Planning and Infrastructure Joe Doxey.

“It’s a regional project that both cities have an interest in,” said Doxey in an interview on Friday, October 17. “At this stage it’s a high-level conceptual engineering study that involves looking at at treatment modes, transport to the river or adjacent systems, odor-abatement techniques, overall costs and alignments.”

Doxey said the consultant is currently collecting data.

“The ultimate objective is to provide a wastewater treatment facility that produces effluent that meets upcoming federal effluent standards and requirements,” said Doxey.

Martensville is being squeezed for real estate in the area where its current effluent lagoon is located, noted Doxey. “We can’t expand the lagoon, so we’d have to look at some type of mechanical plant.

But because we are in such close proximity to Saskatoon, it makes sense to explore the option of a joint wastewater treatment facility. There are advantages that come with economies of scale. It’s better to build one large plant or upgrade an existing plant instead of building and operating separate plants.”

Doxey said while the wastewater treatment plant could be a fairly modest-size project if it goes ahead, the current deal has implications for future regional projects.

“It’s ground-breaking in some ways,” he said. “In and of itself it might be just something we’re working with the City of Saskatoon on, but we see it as a project that could set the legal framework for what these types of agreements look like. All the partners have to have compatible systems for it to work. You have to have compatible sanitary sewer bylaws, for example.”

City of Martensville Planning Manager Bonnie Gorelitza said the proposed project parallels the process that occurred when treated water from Saskatoon first began to be distributed via pipeline to surrounding communities.

“That began on a small scale, and now it serves the majori-

possible, he added.

The city is adding a fourth lift station in North Ridge’s new Lake Vista subdivision which will have the capacity to service a large area. The developer is building the facility as part of a financing arrangement with the city, and the city will assume responsibility for the lift station once it is completed.

pleted,” said Doxey. “We don’t have a firm date for when it’s opening, but it should be soon.”

The second storey of the Martensville High School is erected, and some walls are currently being installed. The new expansion to the high school will connect directly to the MAP, and students will have access to the gymnasiums and other facilities in the MAP.

FUTURE GROWTH PLAN

NEW ROADWAYS

The city is planning on holding open houses later this fall to outline changes to the city’s Official Community Plan (OCP) and zoning bylaws, noted Gorelitza.

“We have a three-part series we’re working on with regard to future growth,” she stated.

“The first part is the OCP and zoning bylaws.

“It was intended to make a safer south access and exit point,” said Gorelitza. “The Highways Ministry recognized there will be increased traffic flows, and with the change of the current Martensville south access to a ‘right-in, right-out’ only access to Highway 12, there needed to be better access to Lutheran Road from the east side of Martensville.”

Demystifying engineering for kids

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

Kids don’t often get the opportunity to launch a rocket in a classroom, but students at Warman Community Middle School got that opportunity during the months of September and October.

Grade 5 and 6 students fired rockets made out of straw and launched them with an air tube in an attempt to learn about aerodynamics, gravity, and wind resistance, said Engineering for Kids owner Bill Lewis.

Engineering For Kids program started in Fredricksburgh, Virginia six years ago and Lewis bought the first Canadian franchise last year.

Since January 2014 he has been organizing workshops in Saskatoon and schools in surrounding areas with the goal of educating kids about science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Lewis said his company offers after school programs, summer camps and birthday parties along with other community associations.

Each workshop is 90 minutes in duration, which includes six lessons where kids learn about mechanical, civil, aerospace, marine and environmental engineering. In the lessons kids also learn about the different parts of physics, chemistry or different branch-

“The workshop started off with kids being all scatter brained but as soon as they see what we were doing they started to have a lot of fun,” said Diagis. “They really got into it and started to focus and learned something because every single straw rocket they launched went double the distance the second time around.

Currently Lewis has workshops are in 12 schools in Saskatoon and in surrounding areas.

Lewis said his long term goal is the hope that his workshops have made a difference in the lives of kids who participate.

“I would definitely like to find some way of knowing that more students are looking at engineering as a career because of the Engineering For Kids program,” said Lewis. “I want to build awareness and demystify the engineering profession as well as make math and science seem more familiar.

session and it has been growing every year,” said Lewis.

Lewis said there are common stereotypes when people think about engineers. He said most people assume that engineers only drive trains or they are just brainacs in lab coats.

“Everything has been shaped by man for a purpose, which is what we call technology,” said Lewis. “Engineers help develop that technology and develop processes to build that technology, so as a society we are great technology users but we have little idea how technology is developed.”

Lewis said part of what he wants to do through his company and workshops is to expose kids to great hands on activities where they learn engineering principles and start to understand the technology they depend on in their society.

Assistant Instructor Steven Diagis said it is interesting watching kids solve problems through their workshop.

At the Huntsman World Senior Games, he again set Sask Athletics Masters records, this time in the 100 meter and high jump events. Rowan won gold medals in the 50 meter, 100 meter, long jump and triple jump at the Saskatchewan Senior and Masters Championships. Brianne Theisen-Eaton was awarded the Senior Female Athlete of the Year at the awards presentation.

Education Week celebrates schools, students’ success Education Week runs until October 25 and the theme, “Supporting and Celebrating Success”, once again gives communities, teachers, students, parents and caregivers the opportunity to recognize the great work taking place in Saskatchewan schools.

“I’d like to thank teachers and staff across the province for the work they do to help our students succeed,” Education Minister Don Morgan said. “Each and every school in our province has incredible stories to tell, and I’d like to encourage everyone to take this opportunity to shine a spotlight on these successes.”

The Prairie South School Division’s (PSSD’s) Practical and Applied Arts program provides career development opportunities for students and provides valuable hands-on training that is applicable to real life careers in today’s workplace. From agriculture to welding to power engineering, students gain exposure

to a variety of skills needed to identify their future career path.

There are fourteen partners involved in this collaboration, including: Ministry of Agriculture, South County Equipment, Saskatoon Industry and Education Council, Saskatchewan Polytechnic, SaskTel, SaskPower, Technical Safety Authority of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan Safety Council, Safe Saskatchewan, Workers’ Compensation Board, Safety Hutch, Acklands-Grainger, Rural Municipality of Mankota and Information and Communications Technology Council.

“Part of the Saskatchewan Plan for Growth is educating, training and developing a skilled workforce,” Morgan said. “This program helps engage students in their learning and gives them exposure to a variety of possible career paths to explore their future options so they’re better prepared for their futures.”

Call for

“The project, and these partnerships, will narrow the gap of inequities found in Practical and Applied Art credit and certifications programs in all Prairie South high schools, ensuring our students receive the information, education and experience needed to find a career they are passionate about,” Prairie South School Division Board Chair Dr. Shawn Davidson said.

“These programs opened my mind to all the career options I have and paths I can take,” Grade 11 student participant in the Information Technology camp Kallie Mentanko said. “They have provided me with quality information and opportunities that I will use to their full potential.”

Education Week is celebrated through activities and events in schools across the province to highlight the achievements of students and commend the work of education professionals.

Warman edges Martensville in final regular season game between rivals Both squads gear up for provincial playoffs

By WAYNE SHIELS

essenceofsask@gmail.com

With playoff berths already locked up, arch-rivals Warman Wolverines and Martensville Royals used their last regularseason contest as a tune-up for provincial playoffs.

Warman edged Martensville 33-25 in a gritty game that saw both teams balance the desire to win this game with the need to prepare for playoffs.

Both coaches talked about the importance staying injuryfree and giving younger players a chance to get some valuable game experience.

Martensville seized the momentum early with a punt block that led to a single point on a wide field goal attempt.

Ethan Moran of Martensville then intercepted a pass

by Warman quarterback Josh Misskey and returned it to Warman’s 24 yard line.

Warman defence held and Martensville’s Brayden Heck

kicked an 18-yard field goal, giving the visitors a quick 4-0 lead.

Warman settled in and built up a 33-4 first half lead on offensive touchdowns by Damien Delnea, Tyler Hume, Jacey Denis, and Jayson Lindo. The Wolverines also connected with a defensive touchdown thanks to a 50 yard interception return

by Joel Seiferling.

Martensville had a strong push-back in the second half as Ryley DeCorby had TD runs of 12 yards and 48 yards, and Keegan Lussier scored on a 2two-yard TD run with 2:30 left in the game to make the score 33-25.

Martensville got the ball back after they forced a turnover on downs at the Warman 34 yard line. The Royals moved the ball down to inside Warman’s two yard line.

The game ended in dramatic fashion. Martensville was within a TD and a two point convert of tieing the game. While at-

tempting a QB sneak over the right side of the line the ball came out, and Wolverine DB Joel Seiferling picked the pigskin up and ran the length of the field for an apparent TD. The referees had a conference and ruled that the Martensville ball carrier had been down by contact before the ball broke the plane of the goal line.

Therefore neither Martensville or Warman scored on the play and the final score remained 33-25 for the Wolverines.

Royals Coach Lyle Evanisky thought the younger players really took advantage of their opportunities.

“I thought they played really well, which says a lot of things about the future of our program,” said Evanisky.

Warman Coach Tyler Scheidt also was glad the younger players got a chance.

“It was fun for the young guys,” said Scheidt. “A sign of the Martensville-Warman rivalry to come.”

Both coaches talked about focusing on the weeks ahead as they get ready to play opponents from southern Saskatchewan. Martensville is slated to play Melville and Warman will be playing Esterhazy.

As Coach Evanisky stat-

Fitness Tips

10 Reasons Women Need to Lift Weights

Many women believe that if you weight train you will get big and bulky. Not So!!

For optimal fitness, longevity, and a lean body, weight training is essential. If you avoid pumping iron because you’re afraid of getting bulky, then you’re missing out on one of the best fat-burning methods around.

When you are weight training, you shouldn’t rely exclusively on the scale to gauge your progress. Throw that away. You can use a body fat tester or a tape measure to track how many inches you are losing. The size of your body will shrink as you shed fat and build muscle, but your weight may not change as dramatically as you expect. Besides, what’s more important, the number on the scale or how you look in your skinny jeans.

If you are not convinced that you should weight train, then here are 10 reasons why you should consider weight training.

1. Burn more Fat. Researchers at Tufts University found that when overweight women lifted heavy weights twice a week, they lost an average of 14.6 lbs. of fat and gained 1.4 lbs. of muscle. In the controlled group, women who dieted but didn’t lift weights, lost only 9.2 lbs. of fat and gained no muscle. In the other group women lifted heavy weights, they found their metabolism stayed elevated and continued to burn fat for several hours after the workout.

During regular cardio exercise, you stop burning fat shortly after the workout.

2. Change your Body Shape. You may think genes determine how you look, that’s not necessarily true. Weight training slims you down, creates new curves, and helps avoid the “middleage spread”. The individuals who do intense training, such as, P90X, Insanity, Turbo Kick, lose approximately 3% of their body fat that translates into a total loss of 3 inches of their hips and thighs. “No” you will not bulk up, women don’t have enough of the male hormone “testosteron” to gain a lot of mass like men. If you keep your diet clean and create a calorie deficit, you’ll burn fat.

Warman senior boys soccer team hosting provincial 2A finals

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

It was a tough battle for both the Warman Wolverines and Martensville Royals boys soccer teams at the Saskatchewan High School Athletic Associations 2A Regional Championship in Warman, October 17-18.

ROYALS BOUNCED EARLY

In Friday’s single game knock out match up, Martensville would have had to defeat Muenster to advance to play Humboldt in the regional final, but it wasn’t meant to be as Muenster went on to defeat Martensville by a lop sided 5-0 victory.

Graydon Stebanuk, assistant coach for the Royals, said the team played well despite the result on the pitch.

“Our transition game was one our biggest problems ,” said Stebanuk. “Just getting out of our defensive zone and into our attacking zone.”

In the first half Muenster scored three goals inside Martensville’s 18 yard box, which gave them a commanding lead.

Despite some Martensville adjustments in the second half their hopes of getting back into the game were short lived when Muenster added two more to the score sheet to secure their 5-0 shut out victory.

There were some flashes of brilliance by the Royals as Conner McKay’s impressive ball control confused Muenster defenders. McKay’s best scoring chance came on a indirect kick from center field that sailed inches above Muensters cross bar in the first half.

“He’s definitely got some skill with the ball and foresight with seeing the game,” said Stebanuk.

Stebanuk also said Royals goalkeeper Jeremy Rennick, who could not make the game due to commitments, probably

would have made a difference.

WOLVERINES ALSO LOSE

Warman had to take on Lake Lenore in their first game and didn’t waste any time, scoring their first goal in a scramble in front of the net to take a 1-0 lead.

Lake Lenore then took advantage of penalty shot goal minutes later, giving them a 2-0 lead at the half. In the second half the Wolverines Justin Chestovich managed to find a pass that he quickly converted by running in on net and tucking the ball inside the left goal post to end the shut out at 2-1 Lake Lenore’s insurance marker came on a header in the ladder half of the second half, which gave them a 3-1 win.

Russell Dyck, Wolverines soccer coach, said it wasn’t the Wolverines’ game to win, but he wasn’t disappointed with his team’s effort.

“I know the kids are disappointed but as a coach I’m not disappointed because they are a great bunch of kids. There were a lot of unlucky touches on the ball and the gaps between mid centre field and defence allowed Lake Lenore to gain a lot of shots on net and ultimately their win.”

Unlike Martensville, whose season ended with their regional loss on Friday, Warman will advance because they are hosting provincials Dyck said a good first touch on the ball and communicating will allow his team to have a great result this weekend.

After Martensville’s and Warman’s defeat in regional play Munster was defeated by Humbolt in the playoff round on Saturday. This allowed Humboldt to take on Lake Lenore in a final matchup with Lake Lenore, coming away with the regional championship 4-1 win.

Cougars advance to conference playoffs

RM OF DUNDURN NO. 314 NOTICE Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Dundurn No. 314 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw 03-98, known as the Zoning Bylaw. NOTICE

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Dalmeny Cougars are in the hunt for the provincial 6-man high school football championship.

But it’s a long road to the final. And that first step is a doozy.

The Cougars are slated to go up against Rosetown; a team that hasn’t lost a game all season; in the Conference playoffs this weekend in Rosetown.

The Cougars have a record of 3 wins and 4 losses after dropping their final regular season game 58-0 at home to the Unity Warriors on Thursday, October 16. But it’s a big improvement over the team’s inaugural season in 2013, according to Cougars co-coach Stephan Kowalchuk.

“It’s still a brand new program,” said Kowalchuk after the game last week. “It’s been a growing year and with that growth there’s always some pains that come along with it.

“We started off the year prettyy good. We got a few wins, which we’d never done before. We battled a few injuries and a few culture-building issues, but overall we’re very excited about how far this program has come and where we’re going.”

Kowalchuk said he’s proud of the players and how they’ve come together as a team.

“We’re heading to Rosetown this weekend, and it will be a tough game, no question,” said Kowalchuk. “Rosetown is a really good team with great athletes and they’re well-coached.

But hey, anything could happen. We’re going to play hard.”

Kowalchuk said the big goal that was set at the beginning of the season was to make it to the conference playoffs.

“We accomplished that,” he said. “That was our goal. Next year we’ll see more growth and more building. But it’s definitely going in the right direction.”

Despite the lopsided score in last week’s game, the field wasn’t tilted completely in Unity’s favour. In fact, the momentum of the game could have been on the Cougars’ side early on if their first drive hadn’t stalled on the Warriors’ one-yard line. A sustained passing and running attack led by Cougars quarterback Austin Trakalo looked promising in the early going, but the Warriors’ defense proved to be the story of the game.

Trakalo stepped into the role of quarterback when the Cougars’ starter, Peter Kuxhaus, suffered a concussion in a game three weeks ago in Biggar.

“Pete’s a competitor, and he really wanted to play. He was cleared by his family doctor, but player safety is paramount in our program, and our athletic therapist said it was best if he sat out this game,” said Kowalchuk. “It’s tough to lose, but it’s better in the long run to have everyone healthy.”

Rebels defeat Kobras, gear up for provincial playoffs

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Delisle Rebels finished their regular season on a winning note, polishing off the visiting Kindersley Kobras 28-7 in Delisle on Friday, October 17.

The team is now gearing up to play Broadview on Saturday, November 1 in the opening round of provincial 9-man high

school football playoffs.

It’s a road game, but that doesn’t bother Ken Byers, head coach of the Rebels. The team has been in that situation before, and the nice thing is they’re going into next weekend’s game with a healthy group of players.

Byers said he’s noticed an improvement in his team over the course of the season. After the

win against Kindersley, he said the biggest factor is determination.

“We played much better than the first time we played Kindersley,” said Byers. “The team played with a much better second effort in more ways than one.

“Our players fought for extra yards,” he added. “We had a much better yards gained af-

ter contact average during this game.”

Byers singled out the efforts of Sam Michnik on offense.

“Sam scored three touchdowns, and did so by grinding out some yards after first contact,” said Byers. “Reid Dubkowski socred our other touchdown.”

Byers said Feipe Keeler was “a beast” on special teams,

leading the team with tackles in that area.

“Defensively, Garth Knittig and Joshua Kemp each had six tackles to lead the defense,” said Byers.

“Most importantly, we walked away healthy. A few of our starters did not play or played sparingly to rest up for the playoffs. This game did not affect the final standings.”

Vipers hunt down Wolves, Bruins in back-to-back weekend games

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Sask Valley Vipers secured a 4-2 win against the Northeast Wolfpack on the road Saturday, October 18 and a 7-2 thrashing of the Estevan Bruins, October 19 at Warman’s Legends Centre on Sunday.

The wins give the Vipers a 5W-1L record, but head coach Shaun Priel said there is still a lot of work that needs to be done.

“The last five of the six games we played have been similar in that we are strong one period and then fall off the next one,” said Priel. “It has consistently been that way so far where we are striving for consistency every shift. I try to get them to play with energy every single time they are out there.”

In Saturday’s game Viper rookies Nolan Doell and Kyle Sopotyk gave their team a 2-0 lead late in the first period before the Northeast Wolfpack’s

Parker Fofonoff broke the shutout with 14 seconds left on the clock to close the gap to 2-1.

The Wolfpack and Vipers traded goals in the second period when Sopotyk scored his second of the night early, which the Wolfpack answered with a little over a minute to go to give the Vipers a 3-2 edge.

In the third period Matthew Ikert closed off the scoring with a goal to give his team a 4-2 victory.

In the opening period against Estevan’s TS&M Bruins Trey Stocker opened the scoring on a fluke wrist shot from the Wolfpack player’s bench that somehow bounced and rolled its way behind Vipers goaltender Carter Woodside.

Early in the second period the Vipers’ Matthew Conlon scored an unassisted goal upstairs on Bruins goaltender Callum Spearing to draw even at 1-1.

Four minutes later the Vipers’ Nolan Doell capitalized on a wrap around backhand pass

from Austin Lamotte, which he tipped through Spearing’s legs to pull ahead 2-1.

The Bruins’ Colten Shell then tied the game when his shot on Woodside trickled in to tie the game at 2-2.

The Vipers owned the rest of the second period when Trent Keewatin’s low shot on a pass from Quinn MacDonald off the face off gave the Vipers a 3-2 edge over the Bruins.

MacDonald increased that lead on the Vipers’ fourth goal when he shot on a tight angle from the goal line that beat Spearing upstairs.

In the third period the Vipers’ Jerzy Orchard, Noah Kayter and Doell’s second of the night easily secured the Vipers 7-2 win over the Bruins.

The Vipers will host back to back home games against the Humboldt Broncos, Friday, October 24 at Warman’s Legends Centre at 8 pm and Swift Current at the Martensville Arena, October 25. Game time is 7:15 p.m.

Delisle Chiefs drop weekend games

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Delisle Chiefs Junior B Hockey Club’s winless woes continued last weekend. The team suffered a 5-1 defeat to the Traveland RV Storm at home October 17 and a 5-2 road loss to the Tri-Town Thunder in Carrot River, October 18 in Prairie Junior Hockey League action.

In the Storm game Anthony Radke opened up scoring on the power play just under of the first period to give the Chiefs a 1-0 lead.

The rest of the game was dominated by the Storm, who tied the game in the first and scored three goals in the second period and one in the third with three of the four goals coming on the power play.

In Carrot River the Chiefs once again opened the scoring on the power play when Jackson Hill found the net, but their lead was tied when the Thunder’s Tyrell Pompu scored with 47 seconds on the clock.

The Thunder would add two more goals on the power play from Derrick Schwartz and

Pompu’s second of the night in the second period.

In the third period the Thunder’s Brian Zupanish opened up scoring in the third period. The Chiefs Alex Anderson brought his team within two but Pompu’s unassisted marker in the third secured their 5-2 win.

This weekend the Chiefs will hit the road to take on the Rebels on Saturday and the Cyclones on Sunday before returning home to take on the Prince Albert Icehawks, October 29. Game time is 8 p.m.

School Bus Driver Appreciation Day marked Education Minister Don Morgan has proclaimed October 20 as School Bus Driver Appreciation Day. Held during Education Week, School Bus Driver Appreciation Day provides students, parents, caregivers, school divisions and education professionals with the opportunity to thank all school bus drivers in Saskatchewan for their work in ensuring the safety of the province’s students.

“Every day in Saskatchewan,

school bus drivers are responsible for transporting approximately 70,000 students to and from school,” said Morgan. “I would like to thank the dedicated school bus drivers in our province who provide safe and reliable transportation for our students.”

The Student Transportation Association of Saskatchewan (STAS) represents the individuals who transport students to school on behalf of Saskatche-

wan school divisions.

“STAS would like to thank all the school bus drivers in Saskatchewan for their tireless efforts to provide safe transportation of students to and from school for 10 months of the year,” STAS Director Larry Senga said. “Through all the distractions they endure - students, traffic and weather - they still provide the safest mode of transportation in the world.

Good job.”

School Bus Driver Appreciation Day coincides with Education Week each year.

Province celebrates Library Week Education Minister Don Morgan has proclaimed October 19 to 25 as Saskatchewan Library Week.

This year’s theme, “Libraries Inspire:, will encourage all Saskatchewan citizens to look to their local libraries for resources in their pursuit of life-long learning.

“We have more than 1,000 libraries across Saskatchewan, and each one offers literacy and learning opportunities for everyone,” Morgan said. “The dedicated library staff and trustees are doing tremendous work contributing to stronger

communities in our province by promoting culture, education and literacy excellence.”

The Saskatchewan Library Association (SLA) is a non-profit organization which aims to further the development of library services in Saskatchewan.

“Libraries in Saskatchewan are offering more dynamic services than ever before,” SLA president Gwen Schmidt said. “From support of inquiry learning in school libraries, to seamless borrowing of books between university and college libraries through the Re-

Warman RCMP report DERAILMENT AT VANSCOY

IMPAIRED DRIVER NABBED

On October 15 at 1:15 a.m. police received a complaint of a fight at a bar in Warman. Police attended and found that the involved people left the bar before the Police arrived. There were no known injuries.

On October 17 at 12:30 a.m. police were on patrols when they located a suspicious vehicle parked in front of a bar in Warman. Police checked the vehicle and found a 26-year-old male sleeping in the vehicle.

He was found to have been consuming alcohol. He was arrested and taken to the Detachment to provide a breath sample. He was released on documents for an upcoming court date on charges of having care and control of a motor vehicle while his ability to operate the vehicle was impaired by alcohol.

FAMILY MEMBER FINE

DRIVER CHARGED

On October 19 at 5:00 p.m. police received a complaint of a train derailment on Range Road 3065 near Vanscoy. 15 out of the 101 cars derailed but were upright. Investigation into this matter is ongoing by CN Police.

BAR FIGHT IN WARMAN

On October 16 at 4:05 p.m. police received a request to check on the well-being of an individual in Martensville. The caller reports that she had not heard from a family member in a few days and was unable to contact them via telephone. The caller was concerned for the family member’s health. Police attended the residence and found that the 49-year-old female was fine and did not require medical assistance.

Proclamation

“Children’s Vision Month” Undiagnosed vision problems affect children’s learning and development and prevent them from reaching their full potential. With 80 percent of learning based on vision, an eye exam from a Doctor of Optometry is the best way to help ensure children achieve optimal learning and development, now and in the future. It is recommended for infants to have their first eye examination between six and nine months of age. Children should have at least one eye exam between the ages of two and five and are encouraged to continue with annual eye exams to ensure proper vision.

On October 17 at 2:00 p.m. police were doing traffic stops in Martensville when they stopped a vehicle for a seatbelt check and found that the driver of the vehicle had consumed alcohol. The 53-year-old male from Saskatoon was taken back to the Detachment to provide a breath sample. He was released on documents for an upcoming court date on charges of impaired driving. There were no injuries.

Wholesale trade up in August August wholesale trade numbers took a jump, up 10.8 per cent on a year-over-year basis, the second highest percentage increase among the provinces on a seasonally adjusted basis according to Statistics Canada.

Nationally, wholesale trade was up 6.0 per cent.

“Wholesale trade has a big impact in Saskatchewan,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. “The increase in these figures was mainly due to an increase in the machine, equip-

ment and supply area, which services major sectors like mining, manufacturing and agriculture.”

On a monthly basis, wholesale trade was up 1.1 per cent July/August, ranking Saskatchewan second in terms of percentage increases among the provinces. Wholesale trade was up only 0.2 per cent on a national basis.

“The gains in wholesale trade for August is really good news,” Boyd said.

Silver Sky development proposed for Corman Park Condos, sportsplex, retail all part of project pitched for south of Saskatoon

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

When Chris Murphy and brother-in-law Gary Budd thought about the notion of putting together a land development proposal on 1,700 acres of land in south Corman Park, they didn’t take it lightly.

Murphy said they wanted to propose something uniquely different than what traditional residential subdivisions offer, which is why he spent hours at the University of Saskatchewan library researching developments around the world and was sold on the idea of having a community that cuts against urban sprawl.

“From our perspective, that was the number one thing we wanted to stop. We didn’t want to have a number of acreages where everyone on average would have to drive to work, shop or participate in recreational activities,” said Murphy.

Silver Sky Development will include condos, town houses, a seniors complex as well as offer office space, retail, a sportsplex and community centre, said Murphy.

The proposal was announced during a RM of Corman Park Planning and Development meeting, October 14.

In the summer of 2013 the RM of Corman Park requested a call for proposals and received about 30 from local developers including Silver Sky. Murphy said their proposal was the largest and was placed on reserve, which he saw as a good sign. Then in April 2014 Silver Sky received a letter from Corman Park requesting additional information.

Some of Corman Park council’s concerns involved density, traffic and a mixed usage portion of their proposal that needed more detail because it included 120 acres.

Murphy explained the mixed usage issue could be solved by use of a sportsplex facility; density could be remedied based on the fact that the development would be self-contained.

Murphy proposed that a traffic light be installed at Cartwright Road and Highway 219, and another to the south of Highway 219 approximately one mile south of Cartwright Road.

Judy Harwood, Reeve of Corman Park said it is an ambitious project that the RM wanted to get the jump on mainly because it strongly complemented residences and business in the area.

Murphy said he felt encouraged by the positive feedback from council and said the 800 acres of green space, which works out to be about 40 percent of the 1700 acres, is the development’s best kept secret.

“The green space would all be connected with various paths and lots of amenities build into it. The paths would connect to Chief Whitecap Park and the Trans Canada Trail, which will be coming up through Meewasin to Chief Whitecap Park,” said Murphy “Our community would be connected to the park and to the trail. I think it is going to be great for everyone that is living in that neighbourhood because now they are going to have access to 1700 acres they didn’t have before.”

The next stage in the process for phase 1 of the development will be will a public consultation to be held in late November or early December in Saskatoon. No date has been confirmed.

RM looks to enforce development bylaws Tittemore added that in 2010 the RM didn’t have permitting requirements for building an approach onto an RM roadway.

“They were told there was no permit required for that. It sounds like there was some misunderstanding there. They took that as a blanket approval where they could stockpile fill on site. However, a development permit is required when bringing fill onto a site.”

Tittemore said the situation with Christmas Properties is unique and not one the RM sees too often.

“In this situation when it was recognized there was an issue there we

made every effort to work with the developer and come to a compromise where it’s a win-win for everybody,” he said.

The situation raises an important issue in Corman Park about whether it should be making a concerted effort to enforce bylaw infractions with its Official Community Plan (OCP) and zoning bylaws, Tittemore added.

“We are looking at cracking down on businesses in the RM that don’t have council approvals. We are also looking at cracking down on developments that have occurred and buildings that have gone up without council approval.”

“There is the legislated consultation that has to be done with any rezoning and some specific uses. As well, sometimes council will ask for an initial consultation process for developers to go through before they determine if it is something they were interested in,” said Tittemore. “The purpose of that is it can give council an idea of whether there is an interest in the community for certain types of development.”

Tittemore said in 2010 there was an entirely different council and administration in place so whoever Katsiris spoke to about retaining a permit is no longer working there.
