Four arrested in Corman Park after high speed chase Four people from Drayton Valley, AB, are facing charges after being found in possession of a stolen vehicle and bear mace.

At approximately 1:30 a.m., on Thursday, March 5, 2015, Saskatoon Police Service (SPS) patrol members attempted to conduct a vehicle stop at Avenue F North and 30th Street West in Saskatoon after witnessing a truck speeding.

The officers activated their emergency equipment but the vehicle failed to stop. Due to high rates of speed, they discontinued the pursuit while notifying other officers in the area. Two canine officers attempted to deploy stop sticks at Idylwyld Drive and Marquis Drive but weren’t able to do so in time. The vehicle was last seen continuing northbound on Idylwyld Drive out of the city.

Shortly before 3:00 a.m., Warman RCMP notified SPS Communications that they had located the suspect vehicle abandoned near Cathedral Bluffs in the RM of Corman

Park. Due to extreme cold temperatures, a SPS canine unit assisted in conducting a track to locate the suspects.

The track was successful in locating a male and a female.

A second female was located by another Patrol Unit nearby.

All three were taken into custody. The canine unit also determined that a fourth person had crossed the river. A man was found hiding inside a garage in the Cathedral Bluffs area.

The vehicle was confirmed to have been reported stolen out of Drayton Valley, AB. Two males, ages 35 and 39, and two females, ages 24 and 37, are facing charges of Possession of Stolen Property Over $5,000 and Possession of a Weapon Dangerous to the Public. The 37-year-old female is also facing charges of Possession of Methamphetamine and Marihuana. They were scheduled to appear before a Justice of the Peace the evening of March 5.

The investigation is continuing.

Radisson boy dies after being hit by train An 11-year-old boy from Radisson was killed when he was hit by a train on Saturday, March 7.

A 13-year-old boy, also from Radisson, suffered minor injuries in the accident.

According to RCMP spokesperson Sgt. Josh Hallett, members of the Warman RCMP detachment responded to the incident, which occurred at approximately 12:00 p.m about one kilometer south of the town of Radisson on the CN main line.

“Two youths from Radisson were struck by a train, resulting in the death of an 11-year-

t he Big d n i h e B Doors ! w o l l e Y

old male,” said Hallett. “The 13-year-old male was treated for minor injuries and released at the scene.”

Radisson Fire Department and STARS Ambulance also attended the scene.

Radisson Mayor Dave Summers said the the community was shocked by the tragedy and are offering whatever support they can to the family. The flag at the Radisson Town Office was lowered to half-mast. A candlelight vigil in memory of the boy who died is slated for Friday, March 13 at 7:00 p.m. on Main Street in Radisson.

Boil water advisory issued for Warman The City of Warman water distribution system was placed under a precautionary drinking water advisory on Tuesday, March 10.

The advisory notice was issued by the Water Security Agency (WSA) at 2:00 p.m. on March 10. The advisory applies to all residents and users of the city’s water distribution system, and is expected to last “until further notice”, and will be in place for a minimum of 48 hours.

The advisory notice, which was hand-delivered to residents of Warman and was posted on the city’s website, instructs residents to boil all water used for drinking purposes for at least

one minute at a rolling boil, prior to use.

The advisory says water should also be boiled for a minimum of one minute if it is to be used for brushing teeth, washing fruits and vegetables, or for food or drink which will not be subsequently heated, and also for water used as ice cubes.

The boil water advisory is due to work being done on upgrading the water distribution pipeline into Warman. Pressure was reduced while the upgrades were being carried out, and the water level in the city’s reservoir fell below a level specified by the WSA. Jason Wiebe with the City

of Warman Public Works department told in a report to Warman City Council on Monday, March 9 that the WSA informed the city that the water supply would be scaled back to accommodate the pipeline upgrades. The hope was that the water supply could keep up with the demand, but it was not able to, and the reservoir level dropped over the past week.

By Monday the flow had been restored to 150 gallon per minute, but it was not sufficient.

Patrick Boyle with the WSA confirmed in an interview on Tuesday, March 10 that the issue stemmed from work on the pipeline upgrade.

“SaskWater was conducting

some repairs and upgrades to their Saskatoon North Treated Water pipeline, and they ran into some issues with that,” said Boyle. “This line supplies water to Warman. They were feeding a limited amount of potable water to the community through an 8-inch line rather than the regular 20-inch line that is normally used, so the system became depressurized, and anytime that happens we have to issue an advisory because of safety concerns.”

Once a boil water advisory has been declared, tests must be done for at least 48 hours afterward to ensure the water supply is safe before the advisory can be lifted.

Above-normal runoff expected for region The central part of the grain belt is expected to be in the above normal range and could see some flows exceed the natural channel capacity in certain areas, according to the Water Security Agency’s March Spring Runoff Forecast.

But the WSA forecast also says the runoff should not cause significant issues. The rest of the province is looking at a normal to below normal spring runoff.

“We’ve had more snow than we would have liked in February and some of the surveys are showing more water in the snow which is impacting the forecast,” Minister responsible for the Water Security Agency Scott Moe said. “So far, the conditions seem to be fairly positive and the Water Security Agency will continue to monitor this closely as the temperatures rise and the snow begins to melt.”

The central part of the grain belt was upgraded to the above normal range due to the above normal snowfall in February which added to an already wet landscape.

An above normal water equivalent within the snowpack was verified during snow surveys conducted by the Water Security Agency across the southern half of Saskatchewan in late February.

In the southwestern corner of the province, below normal snowfall and several melt events have resulted in the forecast being downgraded from near normal to below normal. Spring runoff potential north of Buffalo Narrows, La Ronge, and Creighton continues to be below normal.

Terminal lakes and wetlands that have no natural outlet to drain will continue to remain high for the foreseeable future and with a normal spring runoff could see some flooding issues. Many of these areas remain at higher than normal levels following several years of high runoff with little to no net evaporation.

The WSA will continue to monitor the 2015 spring runoff conditions across Saskatchewan and may complete further targeted snow surveys to verify snow accumulation. If the spring runoff has not started by April another forecast to update the situation will be released.

RM of Vanscoy police chief retires

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

Glenn Thomson is a familiar face in the RM of Vanscoy. As the rural municipality’s Chief of Police, informing residents about bylaws, working out disputes between landowners or engaging in a friendly chat with a resident at a corner store are just some of the things Thomson enjoyed about serving his community.

After spending 35 years as a member of the Saskatoon Police Service (SPS) and 13 years with the RM of Vanscoy Thomson felt it was time to retire.

When Thomson was with the SPS he worked in uniform sections including patrol, traffic and K9. He was in charge of the schools program, worked vice, general investigations in plainclothes and finished off the last four years in media relations.

He decided to become police chief in Vanscoy in 2002 because he thought it presented a new opportunity.

“I was approached by the reeve at the time who I had known for years.

We had a discussion on it. The hours and the type of work was something that interested me,” said Thomson. “I was only going to do it for a few years and it ended up being more.”

Thomson said part of what interested him about the RM job were the differences in policing a rural area compared to a larger centre like Saskatoon.

“You are dealing with a totally different lifestyle in a rural area than you are in the city and different types of problems,” said Thomson. “We work in conjunction with the RCMP. They have to do most of the criminal complaints and investigations, but we do a lot of problem solving between neighbours and different things that are unique to the surroundings.”

A big part of any policeman’s job is public education, which sometimes is easily solved by the residents who live in the RM, said Thomson.

“The best people that know what is going on in a community are the people that live and work there. If there is a suspicious vehicle in the community people know about it,” said Thomson. “We would check it out and it may be nothing or it may have to do with fuel thefts that may have been going on.”

In his nearly 50 years as a police officer the job has changed in leaps and bounds, said Thomson. He said Saskatoon Police officers are probably some of the best trained police of-

ficers in Canada. The way the job is done today is way different than when he started out.

“When we first started we didn’t have portable radios and there was no such thing as a cell phones. In Saskatoon there used to be poles on the street corners where the beat officers worked. There was a box on them and it had a phone in it that went directly to the communications officer in the police station,” said Thomson. “They called them call boxes. You would have to call in every half hour so they knew you were alright and if they wanted you they would turn the yellow lights on over top of the call box and you had to go somewhere right away and call in.”

Policing was also a lot safer. Thomson said when he was a beat cop he mostly had to deal with intoxicated individuals but he always felt respect for the individual no matter what background or lifestyle choice they made.

In most cases Thomson said he received the same respect from people, which he thinks is important.

“Some of the nicest people are the ones that if you saw them sitting on the street the average person would look the other way,” said Thomson.

“You get that first impression of them but when you get to know them they are really good people but their lifestyle has put them in the position they are in.”

He said police officers today have to be well trained because they have to be prepared for anything.

“Years ago when people were drunk and causing a disturbance you got to know them because you were walking a beat. Now you don’t know anymore.

You don’t know who is carrying a gun or knife,” said Thomson.

Technology is also different in that police vehicles and departments are all computerized so they can bring up criminal information on an individual in minutes.

Thomson said for rural municipalities like Vanscoy and Corman Park regional policing is going to play a more integral role with the province’s population boom, which will make the idea of community relations in rural areas more important.

Looking back on his many years as a police officer serving communities in larger and rural centres he has no regrets.

Thomson said part of his enjoyment with the job was helping people, and if he had the chance to do it again he would relish the opportunity.

Martensville Fire Rescue Captain Bill Symons carries a dog out of the burning home

Home severely damaged by fire

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

A house fire in Martensville on Friday, March 6 resulted in extensive damage but no injuries.

Martensville firefighters responded to the alarm, which came in just after 2:00 p.m., and called in Warman Fire Rescue for backup.

When firefighters arrived at the home on the 700 block of Reddekopp Drive, smoke was billowing out of the garage and from beneath the eaves around the windows. A fire hose was quickly connected to a hydrant a few yards away from the home and firefighters immediately began spraying down the blaze.

About a dozen firefighters from the two communities responded to the incident. A total of six trucks, including three pumpers, were dispatched to the scene. Warman RCMP officers were also on hand to secure the area and prevent traffic on the quiet street while firefighters battled the blaze. The fire was extinguished by about 3:00 p.m., and no adjacent homes suffered any damage.

About 2:30 p.m. a dog, which appeared to be a family pet, was car-

Warman and Martensville firefighters work together to battle a fire at a home on Reddekopp Drive in Martensville on Friday, March 6 ried out of the house by Martensville Fire Rescue Captain Bill Symons.

Martensville Deputy Fire Chief Dean Brooman confirmed that the homeowners were not at home at the time of the fire, and there were no injuries. Brooman said an investigation will be made into the incident, but it appeared the fire started in the garage area. A vehicle that was in the garage was destroyed by the fire.

“There is extensive smoke and water damage inside the house,” said Brooman. “And it looks like the garage portion may have to be completed gutted and rebuilt. But it could have been a lot worse. It’s fortunate there were no injuries.”

Brooman said the fact that the fire occurrred at a time when no one was home was lucky. It was also fortunate that the wind was light and the fire was not allowed to threaten nearby homes.

School division to hold byelection following passing of trustee

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) will be holding a byelection on June 3 to replace a trustee that was really one of a kind.

PSSD Board Trustee Cathy Taylor passed away recently after an illness. The school division did not disclose that out of respect for her family, but Board Member Sam Dyck said Taylor had a very dynamic personality that will be hard to replace on the board.

“She had an enthusiasm for learning, not only around trustees, but around students as well. She epitomized what learning was all about,” said Dyck. “She always asked lots of questions and brought people into the conversation.”

Most of the decisions Taylor made for Subdivision 7, which included schools in South Corman Park, Dundurn, Hanley, Clavet and Hillcrest Colony School, were always made based on opinions and concerns from teachers, students and trustees, said Dyck.

Dyck said it was just her style to bring everyone to the

table to make an informed decision.

Brenda Erickson, communications officer for PSSD, said Taylor served as a Board Trustee from January, 2004 January, 2015. She was part of the Board of Education that oversaw the amalgamation of three school divisions into Prairie Spirit School Division.

As part of her Board work, she served on negotiation committees and participated in Board advocacy with local and provincial governments.

Dyck said PSSD Board Trustees are usually individuals who are good communicators, great listeners and a life long learners.

“The individual has to be someone who loves to learn. I mean that is what is expected of ourselves as board trustees, staff and students. Learning for life is what we are about and we try to lead by example with that.”

Erickson said the PSSD will be posting a call for nominations by the middle of April.

Nominations will close at the end of April. The by-election will be held on Wednesday, June 3.

Corman Park admits confusing wording in firearms bylaw

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The RM of Corman Park looked at ways to clarify the wording in its Discharge of Firearms Bylaw during a Council Meeting March 2.

The Bylaw No. 67/98 states under section 2 that no person shall discharge any firearm within a country or commercial subdivision, which means any area within the RM of Corman Park, but then section 3 of the bylaw contradicts section 2 indicating that the bylaw does not apply where a firearm is discharged by any person on land other than Country Residential or Commercial Subdivision or within 500 metres of such subdivision on which the landowner is the occupant.

The bylaw also states that

a discharge of firearms does not apply to a landowner, family member or other person with the landowner’s permission, during hunting season if the owner is licensed or where council has issued a permit to a recognized gun club or similar organization.

The confusing wording between sections 2 and 3 of the bylaw sparked a debate among councilors as to what should be the bylaw’s correct intention.

Divison 7 Councilor Joanne Janzen said the 500 meters restriction is kind of vague in reference to the bylaw wording.

“I don’t know how many multi parcels would have 500 metres around a residence.

There wouldn’t be a lot of space left,” said Janzen. “I mean that 500 metres is pretty standard in provincial language.”

RM of Corman Park Police Service Chief John Garnet said when the initial bylaw was put into place it was to ensure that there was no shooting in any of the subdivisions.

“We didn’t want people shooting cans gophers within the subdivision simply because of the proximity to houses, pets and kids,” said Garnet.

Under section 1 of the bylaw it states that the word firearm refer to pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns or mechanism capable of firing or propelling bullets, pellets, darts and arrows.

Garnet said under the Canadian Criminal Code, which is where the Corman Park Police take their firearm definition from, a firearm refers to anything that is capable of firing a projectile over 500 feet per second.

“This includes high powered rifles, shotguns and it actually would also include high powered pellet guns because even though they don’t burn gun powder they are still considered firearms because they can shoot a projectile fast enough.”

During big game hunting season Garnet said provincial regulations are more strictly managed. During hunting season gun owners can’t hunt within 500 meters of an occupied dwelling or within 500 meters of corrals containing animals such as horses or cattle.

Hunters also can’t hunt before sunrise or after dark including shooting across roadways.

Garnet said in the RM of Corman Park, it is not very often that he has to investigate residents who are discharging firearms illegally.

He said most registered gun owners have to take a firearms safety course before receiving their gun licence.

“When young people take the firearms training they are taught not only how to handle a firearm but are also taught the provincial regulations,” he said.

But that doesn’t mean they are taught everything, added Garnet. “There are certainly no experts on it and that is why whenever we get questions about the bylaw we also refer people to contact the provincial hunting regulations, get the firearm synopsis or refer to the hunting guide when it comes to bird limits, where they can hunt and where the zones are.”

Division 2 Councilor Michelle Chuhaniuk agreed that people may not be aware of the

Langham takes steps towards new lagoon

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Town of Langham is one of many municipalities surrounding Saskatoon that is experiencing population growth, which will continue in the coming years.

The problem for Langham is future development will not occur without a new lagoon.

On March 2 a delegation from the town including Mayor Beverly Panas, Councilors Brendan Proctor, Nancy Martin, deputy major Allan Sneddon and Bill Delainey, Planner with Associated Engineering discussed a discretionary use application pertaining to the development of a new Lagoon in the RM. According to the RM of Corman Park website a discretionary use may have one or more features or potential effects that warrant proposal specific review with a recommendation made to Council, which means any development would include continuous discussion between the RM, Langham and affected landowners and stakeholders until an agreement is reached.

Right now the town’s current lagoon is operating at full capacity, said Councilor Brendan Proctor.

“It is the largest issue in front of the Town of Langham because of development. We are stalled because we cannot hook up any other residents in the lots we currently have because we are at capacity,” said Proctor “That is why we are very pressured. It is not that we have a huge amount of time but we will stagnate if we don’t do something about it.”

The new location for the lagoon will be north of town with options of the town constructing its own route or hooking into Dalmeny’s line.

The town was originally going to pump the treated waste water into a ravine that would eventually make its way to the North Saskatchewan River, but a legal dispute over drainage issues between the Town of Langham and a local landowner put the ravine option off the table.

The landowner also listed the RM of Corman Park to his legal statement of claim.

The RM has tried to have themselves removed from the claim, but has had no success.

Proctor said because a lagoon doesn’t rely on drainage, the legalities with the landowner and a discretionary ap-

plication for development are totally different, which is why the town is looking at different options for its new lagoon “We have actually gone through preliminary planning and have options from our engineers,” said Proctor.

“We don’t need to use that ravine. We can go overland on a different route.”

The overland pipe would extend north along the public road allowance, which would tie into Dalmeny’s existing pipeline.

Division 4 Councilor Randy Rooke said a pipeline could be a long term fix and could possibly take the RM out of the lawsuit.

Judy Harwood, Reeve of the RM of Corman Park, agreed

with Councilor Rooke.

“If I had the assurance that we would be taken out of the equation and you mentioned two other options I would feel better about that and I would certainly put it [discretionary use application] on the table for discussion,” said Harwood.

Division 8 Councilor Wendy Trask put forward a recommendation for the RM to move forward with the Town of Langham’s discretionary use application.

Proctor said in an interview that the town plans on meeting with officials from the Town of Dalmeny to get their take on their proposed option.

He also said the town has not decided on which option it plans to go with.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE | THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 2015 PG. 6

Where did all the money go?

Sask. Finance Minister responds In recent weeks, NDP Leader Cam Broten has been asking our government – where did the money go? The answer is really quite clear. It went to debt reduction, to tax reduction and to much-needed investment in government infrastructure and services.

First of all, debt reduction. Since taking office in 2007, our government has reduced the province’s operating debt by $3 billion or 44 per cent, from $6.8 billion to $3.8 billion.

That debt reduction is saving Saskatchewan taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars a year in interest costs. So far, we have saved nearly a billion dollars in total – money that was re-invested in infrastructure and government services and money that went back into the pockets of Saskatchewan taxpayers in the form of tax cuts.

When the NDP was in power, Saskatchewan people were taxed far too much. That’s why our government has delivered the largest income tax reductions and the largest property tax reductions in Saskatchewan history.

Here’s one example. Under the NDP, a family of four earning $50,000 a year paid $2,302 in provincial income tax.

Today, that same family pays just $95 a year in provincial income tax – a tax reduction of 95 per cent. On top of that, our government lowered the education property tax on their home, took the PST off the purchase of their used car and extended the PST exemption on their children’s clothing to age 18, saving them hundreds more dollars over the past few years.

Tax reductions are saving Saskatchewan residents hundreds of millions of dollars a year compared to when the NDP was in office. In total since 2007, our government has delivered over $5 billion in tax relief.

Our government has also invested billions of dollars to address the massive infrastructure deficit left behind by the NDP. We know there is more to be done, but in our first seven years in office, we have invested $6.6 billion in important capital projects like hospitals, schools and highways. That’s more than double what the NDP spent on infrastructure in their last seven years in power. We believe in planning for growth. The NDP was planning for decline.

In fact, you can see this investment all around the province. There are 40 new schools completed or in development across Saskatchewan, including nine joint-use schools to address increased enrolments and aging facilities. We have also made record investments in health care capital – over $1 billion since 2007 – to build 15 long-term care facilities, replace the Saskatchewan Hospital in North Battleford, build a new hospital in Moose Jaw, and the new Children’s Hospital in Saskatoon.

We have also repaired and rebuilt over 8,500 kilometres of Saskatchewan highways, while still understanding there are more to be fixed because of the disastrous condition of Saskatchewan highways left behind by the NDP. So that’s where the money has gone – into important investments in Saskatchewan’s future. Debt reduction. Tax reduction. Infrastructure projects. It’s a fair question, but we have a clear answer.

And it’s a lot better than the question many of us were asking when the NDP were in office: where did the people go?

And what’s even stranger is that some rural folks seem to now be battling a very rural-based Saskatchewan Party government.

This is certainly what residents of Craik have been doing in their battle to keep both their doctor and hospital services.

About 70 Craik residents showed up for the opening day of the spring sitting to send a very loud message regarding the possible loss of their doctor that they feel is an attempt by the Five Hills Health Region to force the closure of their hospital facility.

Again, this seems an odd fight to be seeing; especially given the rhetoric from the Five Hills Health Region about wanting to work with the community and what we’ve heard from this Sask.

need to attract doctors to rural and remote locations.

But the boisterous protesters from Craik, Central Butte and as far away as Coronach were not buying the government’s and health region’s rhetoric. Really, their anger was all too reminiscent of those 1993 rallies after the closure/conversion of 52 rural hospitals in the name of cost-cutting and balancing the budget.

In fact, sporting signs calling on the government to “Do the Right Thing” and “Stop Rural Health Erosion”, it was almost as if we had gone back 22 years in time.

“We just have to have health care restored back in rural Saskatchewan,” Craik Rural Municipality Reeve Hilton Spencer told the crowd while carrying a sign saying: “Leaned too Hard?” The reference was to the Sask. Party government’s much-prized “lean” efficiency program.

“This isn’t just a Craik issue; it’s a rural Saskatchewan issue,” added David Ashdown, another Craik resident who also expressed his town’s frustration over the Five Hills Health Region and its unwillingness to listen.

fight might suggest it’s just a Craik issue.

Residents noted the eagerness of Five Hills to force their doctor to sign a contract that would mean relocating to Davidson where services can be more easily consolidated.

Inside the legislature that day, Premier Brad Wall promised that Craik would maintain four-day-a-week doctor services and a nurse practitioner five days a week. But that’s well short of the goal of the town to keep their doctor and keep providing emergency medical services.

Prior to the legislature rally, Spencer wrote a letter to Rural and Remote Health Minister Greg Ottenbreit in January accusing Five Hills of wanting “to get rid of the doctor, lab and emergency” and openly questioning the government’s commitment to rural hospitals.

Admittedly, the notion of one single doctor in Craik providing redundant emergency medical services to Davidson 30 kilometres away does seem questionable. For the community to demand EMS under these circumstances does seem to be overreaching.

But having witnessed the

demise of hospitals in other communities, one gets why Craik residents are not only fighting to keep their doctor but fighting to keep every conceivable service to keep their medical facility viable.

So in that sense, it’s similar to the fights we are still seeing all across rural Saskatchewan.

Even the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities passed resolutions last year calling on government to change the regional health authority board structure so that rural Saskatchewan could have adequate representation on boards and for regional authorities “to work with rural Saskatchewan to best address health care needs”.

Admittedly, some communities are having better success than others.

Mere days after the Craik rally at the legislature, Radville had its official opening of its new hospital/nursing home facility that would be envied most anywhere.

But in rural Saskatchewan where there continues to be winners and losers in the battle to keep doctors and hospitals, this old fight has not gone away.

Martensville Chamber of Commerce in the works

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

The Martensville Chamber of Commerce is well on its way to becoming a reality.

The organization, which will represent businesses in Martensville and area, has scheduled a meeting at the Canalta Hotel in Martensville on Monday, March 30 to nominate candidates for executive positions. A subsequent meeting on Monday, April 20 will elect an executive board, adopt a constitution and set of bylaws, and officially launch the organization.

In the meantime, the group is launching a membership drive and intends to contact all of the 385 storefront and home-based businesses in the city.

Business owner Trent Ens is urging his fellow entrepreneurs to become members of the new Martensville Chamber of Commerce The new organization, which is open to all storefront and home-based businesses in the city and surrounding area, has been several

months in the making. A decision to form the chamber was made at a business breakfast meeting on Thursday, March 5 at the North Ridge Centennial Community Centre. Sponsored by the Martensville Community Access Centre (MACC), the meeting was billed as an informational meeting, and was designed to gauge the willingness of businesses to form a new membership-based organization.

A motion to create a local chamber of commerce was introduced at the March 5 meeting by Desiree Munro, a business owner in Martensville.

It was seconded by Sherisse Sametts, general manager of the Canalta Hotel facility in Martensville. Two working group meetings of busi-

ness owners to map out future plans for the local chamber were held Sunday, March 8 and Tuesday, March 10.

At the March 5 meeting, Warman Chamber of Commerce President Ernie Quintal urged business owners to take up the challenge, noting that the “voice of business” needs to be heard by the city council. Quintal said the experience of the Warman Chamber since it was established three years ago has shown that the municipal government welcomes the input of business owners in shaping the future of the community.

Quintal said the objective is to work for the greater good, not just of business, but of the community as a whole.

Saskatchewan Chamber of

Commerce Director of Membership Services Jesse Chatterson said forming a local chamber provides a support network and educational vehicle for local businesses, but it also hooks into a provincial and national lobbying structure that shapes the larger economic and social agenda.

Chatterson said there is a renewed interest among business owners in working together toward common goals.

Noting that the Warman Chamber of Commerce was the first new chamber established in Saskatchewan in ten years. Since then, ,there have been eight new chambers established in communities across the province.

Martensville Mayor Kent Muench, who attended the

March 5 meeting as an observer, welcomed the decision by business owners to organize.

“It really helps council when we can hear from business owners on issues that affect them and the community as a whole,” said Muench.

The MACC will provide administrative and logistical support to the new Martensville Chamber of Commerce on a fee for service contract basis.

At the March 10 meeting, Smokehaus Meats owner Trent Ens, one of the main organizers behind the new Martensville Chamber, said the organization will be a “member-oriented” group that will provide a voice for business owners.

Construction of Warman skate park to begin within weeks

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

A state-of-the art skate park in Warman will be ready for skateboarders and BMX bicycle riders before the end of the summer.

Construction of the $700,000 facility, located on the northeastern corner of Prairie Oasis Park, is set to begin right after the frost is out of the ground this spring, according to Trev-

or Morgan of New Line Skateparks.

In an interview following a public meeting in Warman on Thursday, March 5, Morgan said the design of the project incorporates many features which were suggested by young people, who will be the primary users of the facility.

It’s also designed to blend in with its surroundings and complement the other ameni-

ties in the park area, he noted.

New Line Skateparks of Langley, BC, was awarded the contracts by Warman City Council for both the design and construction of the facility, based on the company’s price and experience in constructing similar projects throughout North America. Morgan said while many of the elements in the Warman skate park are similar to others in western

Canada, it is also unique.

“On a broad level it may look similar to parks in other cities,” said Morgan. “But this one is customized to the shape of the parcel of land it occupies, and it also incorporates design elements that reflect the community.”

Morgan said the elongated bowl is “completely customized” and the overall layout of the skate park gradually rises upward in three distinct levels from the street entrance toward the bowl. Around the bowl is an elevated area for spectators.

“It has a very organic shape and interesting geometric forms,” said Morgan. “It’s also designed to be very functional. It’s going to be able to accommodate both small crowds and large numbers of users at the same time, and allow for events where people can view the action from the nearby hillside viewing area.”

Morgan said skate parks are a growing industry because there is a lot of pent-up demand by users.

Portable monitor takes guesswork out of CPR

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Warman Fire Rescue is the first volunteer First Responder service in Saskatchewan to use an innovative portable monitoring device that takes the guesswork out of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR).

The CPRmeter, manufactured by Laerdal Medical, has been adopted as part of a pilot project by the Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) and MD Ambulance. Warman Fire Rescue is one of three First Responder organizations in communities outside Saskatoon to be trained in the use of the devices and to use them in conjunction with Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in cases of sudden cardiac arrest.

“This is a way of increasing the rate of survival for heart attack victims,” said Warman Deputy Fire Chief Russ Austin. “Studies have shown that the use of these devices, combined with the use of an AED, can increase survivability by anywhere from three to six per cent. It’s a great investment if it means you can save three people out of a hundred that otherwise wouldn’t make it.”

Austin said Warman Fire Rescue was approached last December by the SHR and MD Ambulance about participating in the pilot project. “We agreed right away, and allocated $1400 to purchase the device,” said Austin. “We have the devices and we’ve done the in-service training so all our people know how to use them.

“We found out last week that the MD Ambulance paramedics union is actually picking up the cost for our unit, so that’s a nice gesture.”

The CPRmeter is a hand-size device that is placed on the centre of the chest of the victim of a cardiac arrest. A person then does chest compressions on the heart attack victim by pushing down on the monitor, rather than on the victim’s chest directly. An LED screen on the device then shows graphically, by means of a bar graph, whether greater or less pressure is required to achieve optimum depth. It also shows whether the compressions need to be speeded up or slowed down.

The monitors contain an SD card that records all the compressions and the duration of time that CPR was applied.

That data can be viewed by doctors in a hospital emergency room (ER) after the patient is delivered there by ambulance.

“It’s basically a little minicomputer,” said Austin. “It measures your rate and your

15032SDA00

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Warman Deputy Fire Chief Russ Austin demonstrates the use of a CPRmeter on a child-size CPR training mannequin depth and tells you how to adjust to do perfect CPR compression.”

Austin said the monitoring device is designed to be used in conjunction with an AED. “The AED should be used every 200 compressions,” he said.

“With this device, once you get to 175 compressions, it actually starts a count-down timer.

It’s timed out perfectly so that once you hit 200 compressions, if that person needs to be analyzed and then shocked, it all happens continuously, so there is no stopping CPR and then waiting for the AED. It’s a very integrated thing.”

Austin said while the way of applying CPR does not change, other than the compressions are done using the monitor, there are other differences that make CPR more effective.

“The way we deliver oxygen and shocks with the AED is more coordinated,” he said.

Having a record of how effective CPR was out in the field allows ER doctors to make informed decisions on advanced surgical procedures.

“They will be able to determine if a person will be viable for such an operation,” said Austin. “In this case there’s no question how effective your CPR is and how long you were actually doing it because the record is right there.”

Austin said Warman Fire Rescue responded to 11 medical emergencies involving sudden cardiac arrest last year.

Despite the high number of calls, First Responders had a success rate of about 70 per cent, he said.

Warman Fire Rescue is now using a CPRmeter in conjucntion with its AEDs “It was an unusual year,” he said. “Normally we have two or three incidents. But if a device like this can make a difference, even on a single call, then it’s worth it.”

Quick response time, and the use of an AED are keys to survival rates, said Austin.

“If you can get the AED on within the first six minutes, and they have a shockable rhythm, their survivability is somewhere in the neighbourhood of 60 per cent. Every minute after that it goes down by about 5 per cent, so after 12 or 15 minutes without a shock from an AED, their survivability is down to 5 per cent or less.

The AED makes all the difference, but this monitor makes the AED even more effective.”

Grafitti ‘tags’ have been painted on provincial utility boxes on Martensville streets. The Mayor and council wants them removed or painted over, but city crews are not permitted too do the work. The utilities have been slow to respond.

Provincial utilities must clean up ‘tagged’ boxes faster, says mayor

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

Unsightly graffiti on SaskTel and SaskPower utility boxes in Martensville is rubbing the city’s mayor the wrong way.

Kent Muench expressed frustration with the slow pace of the provincial utilities in cleaning up the ‘tag’ graffiti on the boxes in various parts of Martensville. The tags first began appearing several months ago on a few boxes, but there have been more incidents in recent weeks.

“It’s embarrassing and unsightly,” said Muench at a Martensville City Council meeting on Tuesday, March 3.

“The trouble is, we’re not permitted to do anything with those boxes. Only the provin-

cial utilities are allowed to do that work.”

The graffiti has also appeared on municipal property and private buildings.

The city crews have removed or painted over those marks on civic buildings, and homeowners have done the same for their property, said Muench.

The City of Martensville has contacted both SaskPower and SaskTel to request the graffiti tag marks be cleaned up, noted Martensville Recreation and Community Services Director Dave Bosch. Both companies have approved the clean-up and issued work orders, sending confirmation numbers for those work orders to the city.

But so far, nothing further

has been done.

“Some of these tags have been there since last summer,” said Bosch. “We can’t touch these boxes because of the liability.”

Muench directed the Martensville administrative staff to send a letter to the provincial utilities immediately after the council meeting.

The letter was aimed at getting the companies to give the clean-up work a higher priority.

Martensville councilor Terry Kostyna was hopeful the increased pressure would result in action.

“It’s too bad we can’t just do the work and bill them for it,” he said. “It shouldn’t take five or six months to get this done.”

SONGS OF THE SEA Venture Heights musical brings classic tale of Little Mermaid to life

By TERRY PUGH

tpugh@ccgazette.ca

With opening night just two weeks away, rehearsals for the musical production of The Little Mermaid at Venture Heights School are getting serious.

Well, as serious as unbridled fun and enthusiasm will allow, anyway.

With a cast of over 50 students in Grades 3 to 8, there’s no shortage of energy at the daily after-school rehearsals in the school gym. But director Craig Chase is determined to keep the ship on an even keel while encouraging and guiding the youngsters through what promises to be challenging musical seas.

“It’s not easy to mount a musical play, because there’s a lot of different aspects that all have to mesh together,” said Chase in an interview at the school on Thursday, March 5. “But it’s also a lot of fun for everyone. In fact, it’s a real blast. We’re really looking forward to opening night.”

The musical is slated for two evening performances that are open to the public on Tuesday, March 24 and Wednesday, March 25. There will also be two afternoon shows especially for the school.

Chase said this is the third year Venture Heights has staged a musical.

“We’ve had plays before, but we decided as a staff a few years ago that we’d like to try and accomplish a musical,” said Chase. “Our first show was Aladdin, and our second was the Jungle Book. This year we’re doing The Little Mermaid.

“We picked these shows because they’re all ones that the kids are very familiar with,” he added. “They know the story line and they’ve heard the music, so it makes the transition to a live stage production easier.”

Chase said now that the school is into its third production, staging musicals has gone from the experimental stage to becoming a tradition.

“We’re developing a culture of musicals here,” he said. “Most of the kids playing lead roles this year have been involved in previous performances.

They’ve really grown and progressed and it’s very encouraging to see them come into their own on the stage.”

Chase said the scripts were purchased at the beginning of the school year, and auditions and rehearsals began right after the Christmas break.

He noted that the response to the call for auditions was overwhelming.

“We encourage all the kids to come and try out. The purpose of the au-

ditions is to find out where they belong in the musical,” said Chase. “The ones in the play are very committed and they put in a lot of time and effort.

They sometimes have to give up other things, like sports, to devote time to rehearsals.”

Grade 7 student Kaylee Gerbrandt plays Ariel, while Grade 8 student Dylan Berk is cast as Prince Eric. Other leads are Kaelyn Coulheart (Sebastian), Nick Reimer (Flounder), Grace Ward (Grimsby), Rylan Gabruck (Scuttle), Cadderly Kingsbury (Flotsum), Chanelle Poulin (Carlotta), Connor Hamelin (King Triton), Caedmon Funk (Sea Horse), Emma Ens (Ursula), Evan Ward (Chef Louis).

Emma Ens, a Grade 7 student who plays the role of the mermaid Ursula, said the play is one of the highlights of the academic year.

“I take voice lessons here in Martensville, and that’s really helped me with the songs in the play,” she said.

“Hitting the right note is harder with vocals than it is with a piano or violin, because you have to use your whole body and you have to know how to breathe properly.”

Connor Hamelin, another Grade 7 student who is also in his third musical production, plays the role of King Triton. It’s not a singing part, but it’s stretching his acting chops.

“I like the idea of projecting the character and being a big presence on the stage,” said Hamelin. “That’s my favourite part.”

Chase said the first step after the cast is chosen is to have the kids learn the songs. That takes three to four weeks.

“Once they get the lyrics down pat, then they start to learn a lot of the dance moves,” he said. “And the last piece is putting in the blocking and acting.”

Chase said while it’s a school production, the community is very much part of the process.

“Something this big just wouldn’t happen if there were only one or two teachers involved,” he said. “It’s very much a network of people in the school and in the community. We have parents and volunteers who help with costumes and many other aspects.”

Chase, who dabbled in drama at university, is assisted by a team that includes Musical Director Lynne Driedger-Enns, Dance Instructor Nicole Lacoursiere, Costume and Set Design coordinator Karen Heit, Lights and Sound coordinator Jennifer Harland, as well as Amy-Leigh Thiessen, Renee Doyscher and Carissa Webster.

WHS hosts SHSAA Wrestling Regionals

No holds barred

By WAYNE SHIELS

essenceofsask@gmail.com

Takedowns, reversals, gut wrenches, arm bars and falls were the order of the day as 149 wrestlers from across Saskatchewan competed at the SHSAA Regional Wrestling Tournament hosted by Warman High School on Saturday, March 7. The day was very successful as the great weather, central location and top-notch facility made for a special event.

Warman coaches Jesse Reis and Matt Linner did a great job of organizing the tournamnent and were quick to praise other staff and students for their volunteer work in hosting. They also expressed thanks to the work of the officials and drawmasters.

While the competition was intense the emphasis was on good sportsmanship and respect of the officiating.

Kevin Vollet, executive director of SHSAA, stressed that as an educational organization these were the key to any competition.

“Student athletes that participate in school sports are learning more valuable lessons than just the sport itself.

We are here to coach and educate citizens,” Vollett stated. “They learn time management skills, integrity. All those intrinsic values we teach in the classroom and we extend it to the gymnasium, field or curling rink.”

Warman Wolverine Results Female 50kg - Summer Shah 6th Female 53kg - Adrea Andeson 3rd Female 73kg - Alyssa Tumack 2nd Male 65kg - Easton Smith 6th Male 69kg - Kennedy Fox-Zacharias 6th Male 73kg - Micah Heide 2nd Male 73kg - Tyler Hume 5th Male 98kg - Josh Barker 5th Male 98kg - Derek Buhler 4th Male 110kg - Brandon McKimmon 1st Male 110kg - Jesse Ens 2nd Also participating were Thomas Marcella, Dave Homesacourt and Jaden Towson Stobart Results Female 60 kg-Taylor Gardippi 4th Female 64 kg -Twyla Gamble 4th Also participating were Reese Gamble, Hunter Fisher, Darius Gardypie, Thien Gamble Vollett explained that student athletes are very well rounded citizens, able to communicate and contribute to the towns and cities they are going to be part of with their next phase of life. Wherever they go, he added, there is an opportunity to give back to their sport.

An example of this was the first time particpation of Stobart School from Duck Lake at the Regionals. This was the result of the efforts of David Bennett, a first-year teacher. Bennett has an extensive sports background, including wrestling and officiating wrestling. Showing that a dedicated, thoughtful and skilled coach can have an

amazing impact on students, he worked to get a wrestling program started. Stobart was able to obtain a used mat from Warman High School and permission was received from administration to begin.

“It gives another option for kids to build good relationships within the school community,” Bennett explained about the effect that the wrestling has on the school.

He also speaks from experi-

The two wll look to meet up again as they battle the top wrestlers from Saskatoon and Regina at the provincials ence that wrestling is one of the most demanding sports in high school.

“It gives a total body fitness workout with every muscle being used during a match.

It also requires complete concentration which is great for

the kids.”

Bennett stated that his squad needed to be realistic about their results and use the participation in the Regionals and Provincials as a learning experience as the team develops.

Vipers bounce Broncos in playoffs

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Sask Valley Vipers earned a trip to the North Division final with a 7-4 win over the Humboldt Broncos in Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League (SBAAHL) playoff action, February 8.

It was a win or go home challenge for the Vipers from a physical tight checking Broncos squad whose 4-3 overtime victory March 5 in Humboldt pushed the best-ofthree series to the limit.

Vipers Head Coach Shaun Priel said the Broncos are a team you can’t let up against.

“Humboldt pressures you hard and they have some top

end kids which come at you and if you are not prepared to battle and push back you are going to lose,” said Priel.

“That is what happened last game. We got up 3-0 and they came out and completed hard in the last period took it to us and won.”

Lamotte displayed his soft hands on the Vipers second goal when as the only skater back accepted a long pass from Luke Reid then skated in from the Vipers neutral zone and deked Clark out of his equipment to slide the puck low across the line to give his team a 2-0 lead heading into the dressing room.

The Broncos lived up to their reputation in the second period blasting 19 shots including two power play goals on Vipers goaltender Jake Davidson in the second period.

Borden firefighters curlng team heading to national spiel in Quebec

By LORRAINE OLINYK lolinyk@ccgazette.ca

The Borden Firefighters curling team is representing Saskatchewan at the National Firefighters Bonspiel in Valleyfield , Quebec, March 19 to 29.

To cover their expenses, which include the cost of hosting a supper and entertainment at the spiel, the team held a fundraiser steak night at the Borden Community Centre on March 7. There were 195 tickets sold for the meal, a silent auction with over 50 items and because they had so many donations they held a raffle for over 20 of the items.

Before the meal a moment of silence was held for the young boy killed in Radisson earlier in the day and for all firefighters who have lost their lives. Tony Martens then gave a prayer for the families and people of Radisson on the tragedy and gave the blessing for the

meal.

Retired and presently serving firefighters were all recognized then everyone sat down to a delicious steak or chicken supper.

Master of Ceremonies Jamie Brandrick introduced the team, which includes Ian Wainwright, Barry Saunders and Eric Pearce of Borden, and Randy Hosegood of Radisson Firefighters, as well as fifth player Kelly Salmon of Saskatoon.

Biggar MLA Randy Weekes presented them with a Saskatchewan flag to take to the bonspiel and congratulated them on their success, noting that 2015 has been designated “Year of Sports” in the province.

Radisson Mayor Dave Summers also congratulated the team, proud of them and all firefighters who do their job to the utmost with grit and determination. RM of Great Bend

councilor Gary Nickel said the firefighters team overcame the odds and won the provincials by showing wisdom, experience, and fortitude. He said the team will represent the community and the province well.

Acting Borden Mayor Ian Tracksell gave best wishes on behalf of the village, stating this is the second time they have gone to Nationals; they did it back in 2007 with Dave Buckingham on the team instead of Randy Hosegood.

Ian Wainwright acknowledged the contribution of the volunteers, including those who prepared the meal, Real Degagne and Shawn Nelson.

He thanked his family for all their help and support and noted that his dad, Archie Wainwright and friend, Al Nichol, will be doing his chores while he is away. Twenty door prizes were drawn for with winners from Borden, Radisson and Langham.

Delisle Chiefs’ playoff hopes come to an end after loss to Saskatoon Royals

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca

The Delisle Chiefs didn’t go down without a fight in their second round series loss to the Saskatoon Royals in Prairie Junior Hockey League (PJHL) playoff action.

After getting a bye in the second round, the Chiefs lost four games and won one in the best-of-seven series against the Royals.

The Chiefs finished in third spot in the league’s North Division with 19W-17L-2T and were hoping to build off their 10W-3L record in the last two months of the regular season.

On February 26 the Chiefs were edged by the Royals in their rink 4-3. The Royals went on to shut Delisle out at home 7-0 in the second game on February 27. The Royals looked as if they were going to continue their streak when the series returned to Saskatoon’s Harold Latrace Arena March 5, but the Chiefs had other plans.

The Royals got the game underway on the power play when Tyler Hahn put his team up 1-0 on a nice set up from Garret Zelinski and Maury Ruether.

The Chiefs regular season and playoff points leader Graham Gove evened the score when he dug the puck out of a scramble to the left of Royals goalie David Thiel and flipped it over his shoulder where it dropped behind the line to

the third period, setting up sudden death overtime. The Royals were clearly grew frustrated in the extra period as the Chiefs dominated zone play and controlled the puck.

It only took just over seven minutes in extra time when Ryan Fredrickson and Jackson Hill found Tanner Olson, who buried his opportunity to help stave off a third straight loss for the Chiefs.

Chiefs Head Coach Eric Ditto said it is virtually impossible to come back from a 3-0 deficit and that his team played like they wanted to win.

“I liked our intensity. The last couple of games we didn’t bring JAMES TARRANT | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE the intensity level that we needed. We Delisle Chiefs’ Josh Reinbolt ties up Saskatoon got pucks on net and Royals’ Ken Tomchuk during a PJHL playoff game stuck to the game plan,” said make the score 1-1. proved to be the only goal Ditto.

Jase Smalcel bolstered the scored in the second period.

Things did not swing in Chiefs lead on an odd man The Royals’ Dylan Johner rethe Chiefs’ favour for Game rush from Gove. His tally made sponded with the only goal of Four on Thursday, March 6. the score 2-1.

Minutes later the Royals’ Brennan Heffner evened it up to close out the scoring and end the period in a 2-2 draw.

In the second period the Chiefs’ Smalcel scored his second marker of the night, which Thinking of having a

looking forward to next year.

“We were sitting out of a playoff spot before Christmas and to even think that we would make playoffs was a stretch, let alone finish up in third place. We have a lot of confidence in the direction that Ditto is taking us and I believe we have the nucleus of a strong team,” said Ouellette. “Eric is a young dynamic coach that the players respect and relate to and that is obvious in the dressing room. Yes, we lost out in the first round of playoffs but Eric, the players, and us as an organization learned a lot and will build upon that.”

Vipers down Humboldt, advance to north final to give his team a 5-4 lead halfway through the final frame.

The Vipers fought hard to keep the game close but the Broncos did not throw in the towel. With a minute to go in the game the Broncos pulled Clarke for an extra attacker which Lamotte capitalized by scoring his third of the night to complete his hat trick. The Broncos kept Clarke out for an extra man in the closing seconds of the game but this time Luke Reid put one into the empty cage with one second remaining on the clock to give the Vipers a 7-4

win.

Priel was proud of the Vipers effort in the game and said he is looking forward to the next round with a healthy squad.

“Last year when we played we were down bodies,” said Priel. “That really hurt us heading into the North Final where this year they are all feeling good. When you compete with all of your guys especially when you have a deep roster you are able to have a real opportunity to win the next series.”

It’s the fourth year in a row the Vipers head

to the SBAAHL North Division Final, but this time they will have a new opponent.

For the past three seasons the Vipers faced the North East Wolfpack but this year the Vipers will take on the Prince Albert Venice House Raiders.

The Vipers tied and lost their games to the Raiders this season.

Priel expects another tough series when Game 1 of the North Division Final begins at Warman’s Legends Centre on Thursday, March 12.

New shortline railway to serve northeast Saskatchewan’s 14th shortline rail company will hit the tracks between Melfort and Birch Hills this spring, thanks in part to an interestfree loan from the provincial government.

“We’re pleased to support the establishment of Northern Lights Rail and the expansion of our province’s network of shortline railways,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Nancy Heppner said. “These railways provide grain producers and other shippers with an effective and competitive transportation option that helps to reduce the wear and tear on our highways.”

The Government of Saskatchewan has provided the Kinistino-based company, with approximately, a $550,000 interest-free loan to assist their purchase of 59 kilometres of rail line from Canadian National Railway (CN). The province has supported the purchase of shortline railways by community groups, local stakeholders and local governments in the past by offering loans and advice.

“Retaining rail infrastructure is important for supporting agriculture and economic development in the region,” Northern Lights Railroad President Wayne Bacon said. “Throughout the purchase process, a good working relationship was established between municipalities and towns with great support from producers, and we had tremendous support from CN and the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure as well. We look forward to being a fully-operational shortline, including opening our two loading facilities in the near future.”

With the addition of Northern Lights Rail, Saskatchewan will have 14 shortlines and approximately 2,060 kilometres of provinciallyregulated track.

Man appears in court on drug trafficking charges An 18-year-old man was slated to appear in Provincial Court on Friday, March 6, following an investigation into drug importation by the Saskatoon Integrated Drug Enforcement Street Team, SPS Gang Unit, Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the Vancouver RCMP Drug Unit.

On February 22, 2015, a package identified as suspicious by the CBSA, was intercepted. It was being shipped to Saskatoon from China. Inside, a significant amount of amphetamine was found. On March 5 a search warrant was executed at a home in the 100 block of 5th Street East of Saskatoon. Officers seized approximately 500 grams of amphetamine, 48.5 grams of marihuana, and 11.4 grams of psilocybin.

Investigators believe the amphetamine seized is the same drug responsible for 10 life-threatening medical emergencies in Saskatoon on December 20, 2014 (rel #14-824) in which people had taken an illegal substance (initially thought to be cocaine or ecstasy) cut with dangerous chemicals.

Royals drop first game to Lanigan The Hague Royals are hoping that home ice will give them an advantage in the second game of their provincial Senior A hockey playoff game.

Game 3, if necessary, is scheduled for Lanigan on Sunday, March 15 at 5:00 p.m.
