Two-vehicle crash at Hwy 11, Wanuskewin could have been worse By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A two-vehicle collision at the intersection of Highway 11 and Wanuskewin Road sent one woman to hospital with undetermined but nonlife-threatening injuries. The crash occurred in the southwest-bound lanes of Highway 11 about 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 17, just as the afternoon rush hour commute was beginning. Warman RCMP officers, along with Corman Park Police Service, MD Ambulance and Warman Fire Rescue were called to the scene. According to an eyewitness at the scene, a large steel-company truck attempted to cross the divided highway in a north-bound direction when it was struck by a southwest-bound GMC Sonoma half-ton. There were three people in the half-ton, two teenage male passengers and a female driver. All three were able

to exit the Sonoma without having to be extricated. While the boys were not injured, the woman was examined by first responders and paramedics at the scene and was later taken to hospital as a precautionary measure. Ian Cameron was driving a semi-trailer rig and was following the GMC Sonoma in the southwestbound lanes just before the collision happened. He witnessed the event. “I was heading back to Saskatoon and I noticed the GMC Sonoma ahead of me,” said Cameron in an interview at the scene of the collision. “I had seen the Inland Steel truck trying to cross the highway heading northbound, and I was thinking to myself: ‘there’s no way he’s going to make it all the way across... and then ‘bang’.” Cameron said he immediately stopped his rig and called the police.

Warman Fire Rescue members examine the wreckage of a GMC Sonoma that was unable to avoid a collision with a large truck crossing Highway 11 at the Wanuskewin Road intersection on Wednesday, June 17 “I then noticed two teenagers in the Sonoma and I saw their mom in the driver’s seat. She seemed pretty shaken up. The boys were the first two to hop out of the truck and then their mom got out. She took a look at her truck and then said: ‘I need to sit down again.’ So I phoned the paramedics just to make sure.” The driver of the steel company truck said his vision was obscured. Cameron concurred that it can be difficult to see oncoming vehicles. “I know exactly what he’s talking about, because those big mirrors on the sides of the truck are hard to see around,” said Cameron. “You have to crane your neck to see past them.” The crash resulted in the closure of a portion of the southwest-bound lanes for about an hour while the wreckage was cleaned up and police conducted their investigation into the collision. Traffic was backed up for over a kilometer on Highway 11. Southbound traffic approaching the intersection on Range Road 3052 from the Corman Industrial Park had to be rerouted westbound to Highway 12, where vehicles then had to make a left turn onto an extremely-busy highway as north-bound commuters were heading home.

Long-running auction raises millions in food aid

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Over the past 35 years, the annual auction at Walter Wiebe’s farm near Neuanlage has raised more than $3 million for the Canadian Food Grains Bank (CFGB), making it the longest-running and most generous project in the country for the humanitarian food aid agency. “This year is a milestone, because it’s the 35th anniversary of the event,” said John Longhurst, Director of Fundraising and Communications for the Winnipeg-based CFGB. “It’s pretty amazing what this community has done. It started out with two local farm couples sitting around a table talking about holding a little auction to raise money for the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) to help feed hungry people. And now it’s by far the most successful project in the country. It raises between $100,000 and $120,000 every year for the food grains bank.” In an interview at the event on Saturday morning, June 20, Longhurst said the “Osler auction” is a long-standing tradition that actually pre-dates the CFGB by three years. “The CFGB started in 1983,” he said. “The folks who started this event began raising money for the MCC, and then later to the food grains bank for MCC’s work through our agency.” Longhurst said the event is multi-generational. “Two area

Prairie Spirit School Division adopts $2.5 M deficit budget By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca After trimming its 201516 operating budget by $4.6 million, Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) still fell $2.5 million short of meeting its projected costs for the coming academic year. On Monday, June 22, the PSSD Board of Education adopted a $2.5 million deficit budget. The document now goes to the provincial Ministry of Education for review and approval. The PSSD board is also sending a strongly-worded resolution to the Ministry along with its budget document. The resolution blames the shortfall on inequities in the provincial education funding formula, adopted in 2012; and notes the school division has reduced its expenditures by millions of dollars over the past three years in an effort to balance its budget.

But declining revenues and increasing enrolments, coupled with higher operating costs, including provincially-negotiated teachers’ salaries, are forcing the board to go into the red, said PSSD Board Chair Larry Pavloff. “This is a $2.5 million deficit budget, but that figure was reached after we had taken $4.6 million out of the budget already,” said Pavloff in an interview following the board meeting at the school division office in Warman. “We find that in order to take out another $2.5 million, we were looking at the possibility of cutting 60 additional teaching staff positions. Those would be teachers or Educational Assistants (EAs) who deal directly with students. We felt we couldn’t do that and still achieve our four main priorities for student learning. “That’s why we’re choos-

ing to turn in a deficit budget.” Last year, the school division used reserve funds to cover a portion of its operating deficit. This year, that’s not an option, said Pavloff. “We allocated those reserves years ago to improve the practical and applied arts facilities in the division,” he said. “That’s what that money is for, and we still have to use it for that purpose.” Pavloff said the provincial government created the problem in 2012 when it took away school divisions’ ability to generate revenue by raising property taxes. When it announced the change, the government committed to “adequate”

funding of education, said Pavloff. “At that time, they saw that transition funding was necessary for school divisions because they weren’t funded at the levels they needed to be for student learning. “Now, after three years, the Ministry of Education is saying, ‘sorry, we’re not funding you at that level.’ And we’re saying, ‘No, really. We can’t operate to provide the student outcomes that are necessary with that budget,’ and we do think we are being funded inequitably as compared to other school divisions in the province.” PSSD Director of Education John Kuzbik said in an

interview that the school division has trimmed about $12.5 million from its expenditures over the last three successive budgets. “We’ve reduced teacher staffing costs by $5.1 million, and EA costs by $1.5 million,” said Kuzbik. “We cut $2 million in costs last year, and found another $4.6 million worth of cuts this year. “We’re saying, in order to make this budget work with the funds we’ve been allocated, we would have to reduce by up to 60 additional teaching staff positions. “We’ve hit the point where we cannot continue to cut, so we’re providing the province with yet another opportunity to provide additional funding so we can balance our budget.” Kuzbik said the school division has been forced to shift its emphasis to “create learning facilitators” in each school. “We’ve been

working with classroom teachers and school administrators to create this new approach to improving student learning,” said Kuzbik. “In the past we’ve had a division-wide approach, but with these budget challenges we’ve had to move more directly to the school level. It’s an exciting approach, but it is having an impact on the staff.” Pavloff said the school division has seen an enrolment increase of about 700 students since 2012. “You can’t put 700 new students in a school division and not expect to spend some money,” said Pavloff. “And you can’t expect to put four new relocatable classrooms in a school division ((three are slated for Valley Manor School and one for Venture Heights School this fall), and not expect to spend money for teachers and equipment for these facilities.”

PSSD Board resolution calls on province to cover $2.5 M deficit The Prairie Spirit Board of Education passed a resolution at its budget meeting on Monday, June 22, urging the provincial government to provide an additional $2.5 million in operating funds to help the division meet its operating expenses in the 2015-16 school year. PSSD Board Chair Larry Pavloff provided the following preamble to a motion to adopt a $2.5 million deficit budget; and a subsequent motion urging the province to cover the shortfall: â&#x20AC;&#x153;During the past school year, the Board has considered the following information in preparation of developing and approving the 2015/16 Budget: * The Board of Education, because of funding inequities in the new funding model, has lobbied the Government of Saskatchewan extensively for the past three years, including a recent meeting on Wednesday, June 17, 2015, for additional funding, without any assurances a change would occur; * The Board has reduced expenditures since 2012, includ-

ing a reduction of $5.1M in teacher staffing practices, while, at the same time, experiencing an increase in enrollment of 700 students; * The Board has reduced expenditures since 2012, including a reduction of $1.5M in Educational Associate (EA) staffing practices, while, at the same time, experiencing an increase in enrollment of 700 students; * The Board has increased class sizes and reduced EA supports to students to achieve the reductions in staffing practices since 2012; * The Board has analyzed compelling evidence that illustrates that Prairie Spirit is funded inequitably, which has resulted in a funding shortfall, when compared to other school divisions in the province; * The Ministry has been unable to provide evidence that Prairie Spiritâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expenditures are out of step with school divisions in the province; * The Board has reduced expenditures by $2M in the 2014/15 budget; * The Board has allocated $3M from reserve funds to

balance the 2014/15 budget; * The Board has reduced expenditures by a further $4.6M in the 2015/16 budget; * The Board believes it would be fiscally irresponsible to, once again, balance the 2015/16 budget with reserve funds; and * The Board believes it would be irresponsible to both students and staff to lay off up to 60 staff to balance the 2015/16 budget. It would fall short of the Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s priorities (i.e. student learning, adult learning, staff retention and maintaining class sizes) to reduce the budget and would be out of step with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Student Firstâ&#x20AC;? approach to improve learning. And, therefore, submits the following motions; 1. The Board approves the 2015/16 school year budget as presented with a deficit of $2.5 million. 2. The deficit budget is submitted to the Ministry stating an additional government grant of $2.5 million is required to balance the budget; Prairie Spirit reserve funds will not be applied to balance the budget.â&#x20AC;?

PSSD cuts school operating budgets By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A last-minute meeting in Regina between the provincial Deputy Minister of Education and senior Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) administrators last week did not result in any injection of funds to help the division avoid an operating deficit in 2015-16. PSSD officials confirmed at a budget meeting in Warman on Monday, June 22 that anticipated cutbacks in school division services were likely to be a reality in the fall. A resolution endorsing a $2.5 million deficit budget was adopted at the meeting. The budget includes the

elimination of one learning superintendent position and the reduction of 21.5 Educational Assistant positions, as well as numerous other division office positions and the reallocoation of some division staff to teaching positions in schools. Other than the learning superintendent position, the reductions are all being done through attrition including retirements and maternity leave, according to PSSD officials. The proposed cuts were outlined earlier this month in a letter issued to parents of students within the school division. PSSD Chief Financial Officer Jim Shields told the school division budget meet-

ing that the division is receiving net operating funds of $3.3 million. Almost all of that will go toward teacher salaries because of the provincially-negotiated contract with teachers. All 45 individual schools in the division, with the exception of one Hutterite Colony school, will see their operating budgets reduced in the coming year. While the school division will receive $33.5 million in capital funding from the province in 2015-16, that money will go toward construction of two new P3 joint-use schools, and will have â&#x20AC;&#x153;zero impactâ&#x20AC;? on the divisionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operating budget, according to Shields.

Warman parents have concerns over Educational Assistant budget cuts By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca When a school division is forced to make cuts to educational assistant positions it is often the students that suffer the most. Warman parent Rebeccah McFarland said she was unhappy when she learned through a newsletter that 21 educational assistant (EA)positions are being cut by Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD). At the same time, she wasn’t really surprised because there are more EA position’s cut after every school year. McFarland, who has four children that attend schools in Warman, said EA support for her son Brayden, who is in Grade 5 at Warman Community Middle School, has been a frustrating experience. “He struggles processing reading information; basically anything to do with school. It is not as simple as seeing words, letters or numbers funny,” said McFarland. “It is more complicated than that. He needs assistance especially anything with reading. He can’t summarize things on his own.” McFarland found out Brayden had dyslexia two years ago but suspected he had the disability when he started school. In the beginning McFarland said her son has re-

ceived help when the EA has had time, but it is not consistent. This year she was told by her son’s teacher that he would not be receiving EA support. Brenda Erickson, communications officer for PSSD, said EAs at PSSD can be assigned to more than one student so it is possible that one EA can work with more than one student in more than one grade. Erickson said the amount of support is dependent on the needs of the student. The variety of approaches in how an EA’s time is allocated is unique to each school, but the Ministry of Education does have its own criteria. The first is safety, whether the student in is danger of causing harm to himself/herself or others. The second concerns the student’s personal care and physical needs where an EA may be required to supervise to ensure health and safety with essential medication and personal care procedures during the school day as prescribed by a physician or other health care professional. Then there are students who need one-on-one intensive support to access learning outcomes, which would include students who are blind or have visual impairment, are deaf or hard of hearing or have an intellectu-

al disability. Lack of support has prompted McFarland to drive to Saskatoon two to three times a week and pay $250-$300 for a tutor to help her son. After school when most kids are out playing with friends, McFarland said a lot of time, which should be her son’s socialization time is spent focused on trying to build school skills. At least once a week McFarland said she struggles getting her son to go to school,

which she said is a direct result of his learning struggles. Her biggest worry is her son’s self esteem. “I worry about him; just knowing his personality; that in five years if we can’t get him to be less frustrated with school I am worried he is going to be labeled a problem child or other things just because he feels so low about himself.” The experience has been different for Jeff Zwack and

A year after buying the company, the new owners of Schneider’s Gourmet World are enjoying running their own business and promoting a brand they have come to love over the past two decades. Rachel and Wes Peters of Neuanlage received a popcorn popper from Schneider’s Gourmet World for a wedding present 20 years ago and have loved the brand ever since. The couple have been ‘avid poppers’ for years and were looking for a new opportunity when the chance to buy Schneider’s Gourmet World came up. The previous owners were planning to retire. “We love popcorn and we love the Schneider’s stuff,” Rachel said. “And we were looking to do something different.” The Schneider’s brand carries a range of popcorn-making supplies, including seeds, spices and oils. Many of the products provide a healthy-alternative for those who want to snack

without adding calories. The company’s canola and coconut oils are flavoured with Beta Carotene to give them colour without adding extra calories. Schneider’s also carries Kaktus Chips, a popular snack that comes in five varieties including a gluten-free version. The company offers potato and wheat-based varieties as well. Kaktus Chips are a healthy alternative to other snacks, Rachel says, as they don’t absorb the oil used to pop them. “The Kaktus Chips are very unique to our company,’ added. Customers who buy the Schneider’s brand get a better type of popcorn seed for their dollar, Rachel says. “The seed pops up bigger and it’s fuller (and) a lot of the husk pops out,” she explained. With 2015 being the 25th anniversary for the company, Rachel said they wanted to do something

special to celebrate the milestone. The couple is introducing three new seasonings to the mix: jalapeno cheese, sweet chili and sour cream and bacon. Schneider’s Gourmet World products make great gifts as well. Corporate and family gift packages are available and include the popcorn maker. The wooden handle of each popcorn maker can be engraved with a special message for any occasion. Schneider’s Gourmet World is a member of the Warman Chamber of Commerce. Their products can be found in Osler at the general store and in Warman through their representative, Janice Krahn. They are also available at several locations in Saskatoon. Online ordering is available through the company’s website at www.sgw.ca. Find them on Facebook too at Schneider’s Gourmet World.

when the then-Liberal-dominated Senate tried to block former prime minister Brian Mulroney’s goods and services tax. And how did Saskatchewan benefit from this event? Well, we got the appointments of GST Senators Eric Berntson (convicted for frauds perpetrated against Saskatchewan taxpayers for his days in the Grant Devine government) and David Tkachuk (a onetime Devine principal secretary who has done little on behalf of the people of Saskatchewan other than collect his pay cheque). But it really doesn’t matter whether these Senators are old Progressive Conservatives or Liberals (who have been equally nefarious and useless) or true nonpartisans. The truth of the matter is that for whatever good these appointees do in their “role” of scrutinizing law, we could do much better in a much cheaper way by appointing judicial or citizen experts to oversee the supposed tyranny of the House of Commons majority for specific laws. This brings us to the questions of who wants the Senate and why. ANGELA HEIDEL

Well, there are a few commentators who still seem to be defending the validity of the Senate. But it’s hard not to be a little suspicious that their motives might have something to do with following the Duffy and Wallin path. The “taskless thanks” of the Senate will remain a prize to such political types. And there are the wellmeaning political science intellectuals who whole-heartedly believe we need that upper house safeguard. But even if so, we surely need to get rid of what we now have. Why not then have a proportional representation upper house whose make-up would be based on appointments from every party based on the results of popular vote from the last election? What better watchdog/ safeguard could there be? Well, none. But that’s something the politicians who run for specific seats will never allow because it cuts into their power. So we seem to be only left with Wall’s alternative. Before we can even think of getting something better, this Senate to go.

Fortune Minerals processing plant near Langham still a go, says company official By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca This time last year the prospect of Fortune Minerals building a metals processing near Langham weighed heavily on the minds of many residents who live close to the proposed development. They had several concerns including potential air contamination from waste storage and possible pollution of the Dalmeny aquifer, according to Ken Crush, a resident of the area and an opponent of the project. The RM of Corman Park has not heard any communication from the company since the fall of 2014. Crush said he hasn’t heard anything since the committee opposing the development made a presentation to Corman Park council last August. But Fortune Minerals Investor Relations Manager Troy Nazarewicz is confident the proposed development is still going to happen. “We are currently focused on securing offtake agreements and project financing so we can move forward with the development of assets in Langham and the North West Territories,” said Nazarewicz. Nazarewicz explained an

offtake agreement is one where the consumer of the commodity offers to help fiance companies who produce the desired product or commodity. After the province passed Fortune Minerals environmental assessment in February, 2014, the next stage of the process would have involved a zoning request application by the company to the RM of Corman Park. Corman Park Administrator Adam Tittemore said when he last spoke to officials from the company in 2014, they still maintained interest in applying for a zoning application request. Nazarewicz said the reason why communication has quieted down for Fortune Minerals is because the company is still in the development state of the asset, so there are really no milestones on the way to financing. “Until we get to the point where we have a deal for project financing or an offtake agreement with a consumer of the raw materials, there is nothing to report,” said Nazarewicz. “When this kind of thing happens it does get quiet but it doesn’t mean the company is not moving forward.” Crush said he has never felt comfortable with the

kind of corporate citizens Fortune Minerals represent and said the company’s reputation in British Columbia hasn’t benefitted from the provincial government buying back Fortune Minerals’ assets in Mt. Klappen, BC; where it was feared resource mine extraction would harm the local environment. In Colorado, USA, where Fortune Minerals has a silver mine, the company faces employee health and safety concerns, said Crush. “It just proves that these guys don’t have their act together,” said Crush. Nazarewicz said Fortune Minerals independent community monitoring program would help to alleviate concerns residents have in the Langham and surrounding areas to make sure the new facility is meeting or exceeding all environmental standards. Despite not hearing a zoning application request come forward, Crush said he has kept in contact with Corman Park administration and asked if they would notify him when the company makes that step. Crush said the committee opposed to the proposed development will be ready to address the Corman Park council again if a zoning re-

quest comes forward. “Our strategy is to present our petition at that point and time. It is all in place, we have it all documented and we are hanging tough until all those things occur,” said Crush. Fortune Minerals stated in a February 14 press release on their website that their metals plant would process 40,500 ounces of gold, along with 1,600 tonnes of cobalt needed to manufacture lithium ion and nickel metal hydride for batteries used in portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. The plant would also process 1,700 tonnes of bismuth to be used in a broad range of industrial and commercial products including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronics, pigments and alloys, and 250 tonnes of copper. Currently most of the world’s demand for cobalt and bismuth is mined in China. “We have an asset that is uniquely positioned in North America with these two key commodities (cobalt and bismuth) in addition to gold reserves and that is what we are leveraging to advance discussions,” said Nazarewicz.

Rally calls for increased funding for Prairie Spirit operational budget

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The provincial government needs to increase the amount of money allocated to Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD), according to Amy Dopko, a parent in Martensville who has two daughters in Venture Heights Elementary School. Dopko, one of the organizers of a rally in front of Valley Manor School in Martensville on Thursday, June 18, said if operational funding is not increased for this coming academic year, the cuts in staffing across the division will hurt the quality of children’s education at the classroom level. She noted the school division faces a $7.1 million shortfall in operational funding next year, and the proposed budget contains a number of cuts to school division support services. A crowd of about 250 people, including at least 75 schoolchildren holding protest signs, gathered at the school to voice support for the school division’s board of education and administration lobby efforts over the past year. No elected or administrative representatives of the school division were at the rally. There were also no elected representatives from the governing Saskatchewan Party. Dopko said the rally was organized by parents. “I’m not employed by the school division. I don’t represent the school division in any way,” she told reporters prior to the start of the rally. “I’m here today for my kids. Not just my kids, but all the kids who are coming up and who are currently going to school in this school division. As soon as I heard about the deficit we’re going into, I knew that something had to be done.” Dopko said the province’s buoyant economy over the past several years has helped boost the quality of education, but she’s worried that’s about to change. “There is no excuse for the government to move education backwards,” she said. “There’s no reason for kids to have to do with fewer teachers, fewer educational assistants, less support for English as a second language, less counselling services, and less support altogether.” She said Prairie Spirit is receiving less money than most other school divisions in the province. “Of the nine school divisions that had an enrolment decrease, six received more than double what Prairie Spirit got, two received more than triple, and only two received less,” she said. “Of the 13 school divisions that had an enrolment increase, ten received more than Prairie Spirit, five received more

than double, three received more than triple, and only two received less.” She said parents are worried about the future of their children’s education. “Teachers in our school division are already stretched thin,” she said. “And they’re just going to be stretched even thinner. I know a lot of parents who have specialneeds kids who are very, very worried.” David Forbes, NDP MLA for the riding of Saskatoon-Centre and associate education critic for the provincial opposition caucus, said parents and taxpayers have a right to know “where the money has gone” when it comes to education funding. “Even with the price of oil at low levels right now, our provincial budget is still $14 billion, and people are wondering why we’re not seeing more support at the classroom level, especially in these communities, which are the fastest-growing centres in the province,” said Forbes. Forbes said the government’s promise to review the provincial education funding formula rings hollow. “This government has been talking about reviewing the formula for quite a while, and it’s pretty obscure and vague,” he said. “The reality is that we’re seeing a school division that is saying the numbers simply aren’t adding up.” Dopko told the rally that while the provincial government has increased funding to the school division over the past few years, it hasn’t been enough. “The increase in funding hasn’t kept pace with the increase in enrolment,” she said. “Inflation and the cost of fuel, computers and other equipment have also eaten into

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Construction is set to begin on a three-storey, 74-room Days Inn and Suites hotel in Warman. The hotel, located on a parcel of commercially-zoned land on the southeast corner of the intersection of Centennial Boulevard and Clubhouse Boulevard, is scheduled to be completed by July, 2016. In addition to family-oriented suites, it will feature a pool, waterslide, meeting rooms and breakfast area. However, it will not have any bar, lounge or restaurant facilities. Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence officially put the first shovel in the ground on Wednesday, June 17 to mark the start of

construction on the project. “This is an exciting day for our growing community,” said Spence. “A hotel signifies confidence in this city and really speaks to how quickly we are growing.” Spence said last year the city grew seven per cent and welcomed 50 new businesses, 17 of which are store-front operations. She noted that a hotel is needed because of the large number of visitors that attend events in the community, and also those who visit friends and family. Lorne Jolliffe, regional director of franchise development with Realstar Hospitality, the parent company that handles the Days Inn and Suites franchise, said the vibrant community is a “perfect fit” for this type of family-friendly hotel. He said the lo-

cation, directly across the street from the Legends Centre and the Legends Plaza shopping centre, as well as a short distance from the Legends Golf Club, played a big role in the company’s decision to build the facility. “Warman is one of the fastest-growing cities in Saskatchewan,” said Jolliffe. “We’ve been looking at a couple of different options for the area over the past few years. We have a Days Inn as well as a Motel 6 in Saskatoon’s north end, but this part of the region is under-serviced. We felt a Days Inn and Suites would be the best fit for this type of location. Price and value are key factors, and it’s also a very family-oriented facility. In a regular hotel, a family may need to CONTINUED ON PAGE 22

School names chosen Cities sign MOU for regional RCMP facility The new Catholic schools in Martensville and Warman now have names. Holy Mary Catholic School in Martensville and Holy Trinity Catholic School in Warman are slated to begin construction this summer and should be completed by September, 2017. Both schools will be operated by the Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools Division (GSCSD), and are joint-use schools with Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD). The schools are being built under a P3 model, and are two of 18 jointuse schools slated for Saskatoon, Regina, Warman and Martensville. The names were unveiled at the GSCSD meeting on

Monday, June 22. GSCSD trustees also approved the division’s 2015-16 budget at that time. The division approved a $180.3 million budget, which represents a decrease of 0.2 per cent from the current year. The GSCSD is expecting an increase of 197 students in the fall, and is being forced to cover the additional $1.1 million expense because the province’s education funding formula doesn’t account for the additional students until at least a year after they are enrolled. The GSCSD says one of its biggest increases in expenses is transportation, since students in Warman and Martensville must be bussed in to schools in Saskatoon.

giving back to the community

Anna Marie Wollf, representing the I-Deal-2-U thrift store in Warman, presents a cheque for $1000 to Warman Deputy Fire Chief Russ Austin on Tuesday, June 9. The store regularly donates funds to local charitable organizations. Austin said the funds will be put toward community fire and safety education initiatives. In the past Warman Fire Rescue has invested funds from donations toward school-based bicycle rodeos, bicycle helmet safety initiatives, and medical supplies for its first responder mobile unit.

Dear Residents: The purpose of our newsletter is to provide all residents in Warman & area with information as to what is happening in business, sport and our community. We believe it is important that as a learning and highly-involved community, we share this information with everyone. Please feel free to call Josh (306-933-2133) or Jennifer(306-933-1929) if you have suggestions or information for our newsletter.

Hello from Mayor and Council, “Some of the best memories are made in flip flops.” ...Kellie Elmore Yahoo, summer has arrived!!! Before we get too busy with our summer plans let's talk about what is new and exciting here in the City of Warman. June has been a bussssssy month with many great events taking place. On behalf of Council and myself, we want to tip our hats to the Rodeo Committee and the volunteers for all the planning that went into a fantastic Rodeo weekend. The incredible

summer weather drove out an outstanding attendance for all of the Rodeo events. The parade was attended by several of our residents, many of the organizations involved in the parade were amazed at the amount of people that took in the event. It was noted by many that next year more candy will definitely be needed! The events that took place at the Rodeo grounds throughout the weekend were also a great success, with many taking in the wonderful Rodeo atmosphere. The planning for such a big event takes months to organize and again we thank the Rodeo committee for all their efforts. Warman High School Graduation is approaching quickly. On June 26th at 1:30PM the grade twelve students of Warman High School will raise their hats and celebrate this important educational achievement. From City Council, City staff and our community we congratulate our graduating class and wish you all the best as you move through the next door in your lives.

Keep in mind your Graduation isn't the end of a tough journey, it is the beginning of a new exciting opportunity in your life. Seize it!!

The City welcomes your comments to these changes as this will be reviewed after the trial period of June 30, 2015.

Transportation Report

Environmental Health Services & Public Health Welfare

Do we have too many stop signs in Warman? Is there a weight limit for trucks driving down my street? What is the best way to drive home from any Warman entrance? Should we have more stop arms for railways and less whistles? As we continue to grow, we are challenged to keep everyone safe while planning roadways that move pedestrians, bicycles, cars, and trucks throughout our city. To maintain the safety of everyone and our current quality of life, we will be seeking services to prepare a Transportation Master Plan (TMP) for our City. This plan will present the City with a strategic plan to address the City’s current street, pedestrian and bicycle networks, truck route, and parking concerns. The TMP will include a review of the current street network, including recommendations on signage, school zone areas, and recommendations on the timing and locations of future traffic lights. We will be seeking requests for proposals in July, with the intention of seeing the report in early October and acting on the recommendations in 2016. Alley on East side of Elementary School Concerns were raised with the City in regards to the alleys on the west and east sides of the Elementary School located on 4th Street W. Residents were concerned with the substantial amount of traffic in the alley ways when traffic was dropping off their children. As a result, the City of Warman made the alley on the east side of the Elementary School a one way alley running north to south. Since this change, the City has noted that the change has had a positive impact on the traffic concerns. While these changes have improved this situation there are still parking restrictions that residents need to be aware of. Several residents in the area use these alleys to access their garages and it becomes a challenge if residents do not follow the regulations. For more information on the restrictions to this area in regards to parking please visit www.warman.ca or call City Hall at 306.933.2133.

The environment is important to your City Council. The Sustainability and Environment Committee is working on an EMP (Environment Master Plan). This plan will provide the City of Warman with a road map in understanding the needs and objectives of the City in regards to sustainable projects and the environment. Through our current research the Committee has discovered some interesting consumption usage date for the City of Warman in 2014, they are highlighted below: 1.

From our waste carts we collect 2, 694 tonnes of waste;

From our recycling carts we collect 693.04 tonnes of recyclable material;

Our organic waste bins collected 173.31 tonnes of waste that was diverted from the landfill;

In 2014 our spring cleanup costs were $13,380 and the fall costs were $4,861. Clearly our cleanup programs are well used each and every year.

This is only small collection of data but it shows what is happening in our community and what we need to do to keep it a clean community. The City of Warman continues to look for ways to improve our environmental foot-print on the environment. Please remember to be responsible and make use of the programs in our City and if you have comments or suggestions please feel free to contact me. Lastly, the City of Warman is proud to announce it will be holding its first Household Hazardous Waste Day on October 24, 2015 at Warman Fire Hall parking lot. Further information will be posted closer to the date. Respectfully Submitted by: Councillor Kendall Shram As always, do not hesitate to call your Mayor or Council if you have questions, suggestions or just want to chat. We always welcome conversation with the residents of this great

Outdoor Water Conservation Water Waste Checks Check to see if your watering system sprays beyond the lawn area. Adjust sprinklers so only your lawn is watered and not the house, sidewalk or street. Check the temperature. Watering should only be done if the temperature is between 10˚C to 20˚C. Watering when it is too cold leaves your lawn susceptible to disease. Watering when it is too hot causes the water to evaporate. Check for leaks along watering hoses and at the connection at the tap. Check that your hose has not been left running at night. Reduce Your Use

Water in the morning, between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. when temperatures are lower and winds are calmer. Reduce water use by monitoring your lawn when watering to ensure water does not pool on the lawn or run over the sides. Use mulch to reduce evaporation and weeds. Aerate your lawn periodically. Replace broken hoses immediately. Use trickle irrigation hoses for smaller areas, trees, flower beds and gardens. Replace damaged outdoor taps. Catch leaking water in a bucket until the part is replaced. New connectors can be purchased at most hardware stores.

Warman High School has offered a Storefront program for thirteen years. Its primary function is to support students from grades 10-12 with one to one instruction, modular instruction and online instruction. Attendance is flexible to encourage students to attend when it is best for them. Students may begin a class at any time in the school year, carry work over a semester or a summer and with the permission of school administration, take one or more classes in the regular school. In the latter situation, students are expected to follow the regular expectations of students at WHS. Storefront is a good option for upgrading core classes and for students who work, especially shift work. There is staff support in English, History, Biology, and Math. To register, please contact the school administration. Career & Work Exploration – A special thank you to our employers who have taken time to work with our students. Your support and co-operation is greatly appreciated. If you are interested in becoming involved in our Career & Work Exploration program, please contact Mrs. Susan Bayne at the school at 933-2377.

Barn Playhouse going strong in 25th season By VICKIE DYCK Barn Playhouse Artistic Director Excitement doesn’t begin to cover how we’re feeling over at the Barn Playhouse as we open the first show of our 25th Season. We are really pleased to present “Quilters”, a pioneer musical. It has been a labour of love that we are dedicating to the memory of our Mom. “Quilters” is such a rich show. It is rich with color, rich with memory, rich with harmony and rich

with laughter. I find myself just grinning from ear to ear watching the story and hearing the music as the show unfolds. I have the privilege to be on stage myself in this one. I play the elderly mother as she passes her legacy quilt on to her daughters. A role I find suits me much better these 18 years later! This is our season to look back in gratitude. “Quilters” is a repeat from our 6th season and has always

been one of my personal favorites. 18 years later, it’s still a strong show with a lot of heart. It really is stitched together with love and laughter. A dear friend, Nettie Friesen, now in her 90s has pieced together and hand-quilted the quilt that is the centerpiece of the show. The show runs June 17 to 21 and the 24 to the 28. For tickets people can call Colleen at the Barn office – 306-239-4600.

home field advantage

Players with the Netherlands and Great Britain national fastball teams, along with kids in the Warman Minor Ball Association, gathered in the infield for a group shot at Warman’s Prairie Oa-

sis Park during a break in the doubleheader action on Monday, June 22. The exhibition games offered fans a chance to see world-calibre men’s fastball in the week leading up to the men’s world championship tournament in Saskatoon June 26-July 5.

Regina Thunder junior football club signs Kyle Keating, Peter Kuxhaus By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca The Regina Thunder Junior Football Club recently signed two local football players it hopes will give them the advantage in years to come. The Thunder signed 6-foot, 210-pound Warman High School linebacker Kyle Keating, who they described as a coach-able, hard-working player that has a team-first mentality. Warman Wolverines head coach Tyler Scheidt said Keating was a reliable player

that could fill a lot of different roles on the team. “He played receiver, linebacker and offensive line, so he was a guy that we could put in everywhere. He’s a big strong kid that is pretty athletic,” said Scheidt. Scheidt said Keating’s ability to long snap the ball gave the Wolverines the edge, and gives him a leg up on other players trying to make the Thunder’s roster. Keating said it is a skill most football players ignore, but a skill Thunder head coach Scott MacAulay no-

ticed right away in Keating. “He has mastered it and you can tell he understands the technique. He knows how to properly place the ball in his hands and makes sure he has a lot of consistency,” said MacAulay. “There are not a lot of players who can long snap the ball or are willing to do it. Anytime you can find a guy that can do it at his level it is something special.” Keating will be joined by Dalmeny football player Peter Kuxhaus, who also recently signed with the team.

The Thunder ranked Kuxhaus as one of the top quarter backs coming out of high school, said MacAulay. “We have known about Peter for a long time. He is a great athlete and kid,” said MacAulay. “We are looking at two spots for him and we will see when he fits in at camp. It is based on our needs and where we can put him in the best spot possible.” Most graduating football players in Saskatchewan usually aim to make the University of Saskatchewan

Huskies roster, but that was never high on Keating’s todo list. “When I was invited and attended the Thunder camps I never really paid attention to other teams,” said Keating. “I didn’t feel it was necessary. I wanted to put everything into making the Thunder team.” Keating said he plans on spending a few years with the Thunder before applying to the University of Lethbridge’s Police Sciences program. MacAulay said the advan-

tage of playing junior football for graduating high school players is simple. It gives them the opportunity for more playing time before moving on to the CIS. Another reason is because a lot of players are unsure if they want to work or go to school after high school so it allows to them play football until they feel ready to make that jump to university, he said. MacAulay said with Keating’s long snap attributes he is likely to play in Thunder home games next season.

Valley United SC Premier boys lose a tough one against Lakewood By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca The Valley United SC Premier boys experienced a tough 4-1 loss to Lakewood Madeira during a Saskatoon Youth Soccer league match at Wildwood Park, June 17. It has been a season

where the team has been struggling to find its scoring touch with 9L-1T record in ten of its games, but overall head coach Rob Pomarenski said he is happy with the team’s effort. “We knew it would be challenging moving up to

the Premier division from Div 2,” said Pomarenski. “Every other game we are in it for awhile. We might get down by two goals in the second half where the guys get their heads down, but they are showing improvement.”

In Wednesday’s match-up Lakewood blocked up the middle of the field defensively and dominated their attack offensively, racking up a 2-0 lead in the first half and adding another two in the second. Valley United SC broke

what would have been a shutout in the second half for Lakewood. On a play kicked up the field just inside the left foul line and deep to the left of Lakewood’s goalkeeper, VUSC’s Spencer Bell managed to find an unmanned spot in

the box and tipped a shot, which bounced high off both posts before dropping down into the net.

Local teams compete in Hollandia Cup VUSC teams competed in the Hollandia Cup in Saskatoon. The U12 Boys Premier team played some of their best soccer this season but were edged out prior to the semi final rounds. The same was true for the U12 girls who are leading the standings in league play. The U16 girls fought hard all weekend but did not advance out of the round robin. The U14 boys finished first in their pool with 2 wins and 1 loss heading into the semi finals. They beat Swift Current 2-0 in the semi final game and battled Hollandia Sirman in the final game in double overtime and a shootout to clinch the gold. The U14 Boys also won the tournament skills competition for their age group. The Valley United SC Premier U12 boys will close off their season against the Aurora Whitecaps, June 29.

Compensation: $60,391 to start, with excellent benefit package.

Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence turns the sod on Wednesday, June 17 to begin construction of a three-storey,74room Days Inn and Suites hotel in Warman, while (left to right) Nathan Wilhelm of Wilhem Construction, Lorne Jolliffe of Realstar Hospitality, Travis Penner of Bridge Road Developments, Warman Chamber of Commerce President Ernie Quintal and Warman City Manager Stanley Westby look on.

NEW HOTEL FOR WARMAN Continued from page 10 book two rooms with adjoining doors. But with this hotel, you could get a larger family suite and pull out a sofa for the young kids. We have a couple of different designs for the rooms. It’s also good for groups, like trades people working on a project.” Jolliffe said the hotel will be very similar to a recently-completed Days Inn and Suites facility in Yorkton. The developer and general contractor for the project is Bridge Road Developments, the Manitoba-based company which is also overseeing construction of a new multi-unit seniors complex in Martensville. Travis Penner of Bridge Road Developments said this will be the fifth hotel in western Canada the company has undertaken. “This is our first Days Inn but we’ve built a Best Western in Manitoba and three Suburban Extended Stays in Saskatchewan; one each in Estevan, Kindersley and Moose Jaw, so we’re familiar with the hotel industry,” said Penner.

He said the project will generate about 75 to 100 jobs during the construction phase, and an additional 20 full and part-time jobs once it is completed. He added that Bridge Road’s subsidiary company, Encore Hospitality, will be the property manager once construction is completed and the hotel is operational. A local investor group also contributed capital towards the project. The total cost of the hotel was not disclosed. Warman Chamber of Commerce President Ernie Quintal said a hotel is a “key cornerstone” for the local economy that will help attract additional businesses. Kelly Bedient, sales representative for Bridge Road Developments, said she’s excited to see the project in her home town. Bedient grew up in Warman and graduated from Warman High School. “I’m really proud to be part of this project in my home community,” said Bedient.

This is a permanent, full-time opportunity with the College. For a complete position profile, and application visit www.nwrc.sk.ca. Applications will be received until noon, Wednesday, June 29, 2015.

Chamblin tweaks roster, Riders ready for 2015 season The 2015 CFL season is about to kick off and all nine teams are lined up at the starter’s gate with identical 0-0 records. Savour this moment because everyone’s tied for first-place and optimism reigns supreme. It may be a stretch to say excitement is at an all-time high across the CFL but it’s certainly right up there in the Wheat Province. Keep in mind too, this could be an historic season because if the CFL owners and governors have their way, this may be the final season which kicks off around Canada Day. They’d like to move it up by as much as a month beginning as early as next year. Here in Saskatchewan, there is no need to cross our fingers and pray for the best like so many years ago (al-

though that never hurts). This year’s Roughriders are a sturdy unit which appears to be in contention to play in the 2015 Grey Cup in the new Investors Group Field in Winnipeg. After an 0-2 preseason, I’m still scratching my head at what exactly the Riders have assembled here. But that’s fine. The 2013 Grey Cup championship team seems like eons ago but there are still some traces of it left behind in the form of Darian Durant, Weston

Dressler, Chris Getzlaf, John Chick, Alex Hall, Tyron Brackenridge and the like. There’s a perilously thin line between “old” and “veteran” and we found this out during the fated 5-13 season of 2011. However Father Time has not yet caught up to this group. Of that I am confident, but he does have a tendency to show up unannounced. To counter that, there’s a virtual flood of rookies on this year’s team including

the next wave of franchise stars like 2015 draftees Nic Demski (receiver/returner) and Rory Connop (defensive tackle). I counted nine brand new faces who avoided the two swings of the axe at countdown time. “I think it’s a very good mix,” announced Riders head coach Corey Chamblin at the conclusion of the preseason. “The one thing I’ll tell you about these young guys is a lot of them have been through a lot in their personal lives. I think they’ll use that in their professional lives. They’re tough and they’re ready to go.” One thing that popped out in the preseason was the sparkling play of back-up quarterback Kevin Glenn. He effortlessly moved the ball with an 83 per cent

ers this Saturday at 6:00 pm at Mosaic Stadium (TSN, CKRM Rider Radio Network). While the Riders feel pretty buoyant of their chances after a decent showing the preseason, the Blue Bombers are already fretting after a 26-15 home loss to Hamilton in their exhibition finale. “Pre-season or not, I hate losing,” spewed Bomber centre Dominic Picard to a Winnipeg reporter. “I hate this feeling. It makes me sick.” Boy that started earlier than normal! But I’ve seen teams snap out of a funk like that in just a matter of days and by the time the Bombers come to town later this week, they’ll be ready to ruin the Riders’ party in their homeopener. Saskatchewan intends to be ungracious hosts.

completion rate and casually threw a pair of touchdowns. The team’s in good stead in the event Darian Durant goes down (you can cross your fingers again). “Kevin’s crisp in all that he does,” Chamblin continued. “And he’s here for two reasons: either for his performance or his presence. Darian is clean also. It just makes us stronger and that’s what we need. As a matter-of-fact we have the two winningest quarterbacks of the past five years.” Oh to have been able to say that last year. Although I seem to be the only one bringing that up around here anymore. So now the football club is ready to set sail on a brand new season and it begins with a visit from the rival Winnipeg Blue Bomb-

available to purchase locally-grown food for refugees in war-torn countries or victims of natural disasters in countries around the world. The CFGB has approximately 250 community projects across Canada. Longhurst said a CFGB survey last year found that over 5,000 people, 800 churches and 1,300 businesses are actively involved in supporting these projects, many of which include the proceeds from crops grown on land donated by local farmers for the purpose. He said when the CFGB first began, grain from local farmers was donated directly famine-stricken countries, but the policy was changed about 15 years ago “It’s more efficient to donate the funds from the sale

of the grains,” said Longhurst. “Food can be purchased close to where it’s needed in those countries, and that not only supports the local farmers, it also allows food that is more appropriate for the local diet of the people.” Dave Meier, Saskatchewan regional coordinator for the CFGB, compared the auction to the Biblical ‘sermon on the mount’ miracle of the loaves and fishes, noting that the money raised at the local auction was multiplied several times by matching funds from the federal government. “Today we are gathered to help feed thousands of people, not just for a day, but for many months at a time” said Meier. “Your generosity makes a huge difference.”

South Corman students look to future Submitted by KAYLEIGH WINTERS South Corman Park School The grade 6 students at South Corman Park School hosted a Career Fair June 19 for the entire school and parents to attend. The students researched careers that currently interest them, finding out information on schooling, training requirements, day-to-day work, uniforms, tools, etc. The students then took their research

and created visual displays of their findings coupled with a verbal presentation. Most students brought in important tools for their chosen career, to give the onlookers a true experience of their chosen career. The chosen career topics ranged from veterinarians, to software developer to chefs to mechanical engineer. The grade 6 students, all did such great work, and should be very proud of their final products.

Parents concerned over EA cutbacks John Kuzbik told the Gazette in an interview last week than every year there are more EAs who are reassigned between school years, depending on enrolment in various schools and the proximity of EAs to schools where they are being assigned. Kuzbik also said it is difficult to truly assess the impact of budget cuts for EAs because so many leave PSSD schools on an annual basis It is easy to play the blame game when a school division is forced to make budget cuts, which this year was largely based on PSSD’s $7.1 million shortfall in this year’s operating budget. McFarland said both sides have to share the brunt of responsibility for her frustration and her son’s struggles “I know a lot of people put this on the government but I also wonder about the school board’s budget. If the government allows

extra money for kids with special needs, where is that money going because my kid is not getting extra help,” said McFarland. McFarland she said she is considering looking at private school options, which could mean possibly shelling out between $5,000 to $10,000 in order to get her son the help he needs. “It actually shocks me how little money is put toward education. It sounds cliché, but these kids are our future and what are we setting them up for? “I worked in the school system as an EA about six or seven years ago. Back then it seemed like there was an EA in every classroom to help a student or two in the classroom. “Now you have EAs that go from one class to the next, only half helping all of these kids, with some who are falling through the cracks,” said McFarland.

Stay out of skate park work area, advises City of Warman official The new skateboard park at Warman’s Prairie Oasis Park could be delayed if overeager youth keep using the site while it’s being built, warns Paul McGonigal, director of recreation and community services for the city. In a Facebook posting issued on Thursday, June 18, McGonigal said he understands that young people are thrilled about the prospect of the skate park. “However, on a cautionary note, this is a

construction site and as such, has various hazards,” said McGonigal. “Your nightly ride are also delaying construction. “It is our hope to have the park open by late September, allowing you some fun before it is too cold out. If our construction workers continuously have to re-do the prep work from the day before we might only see the park open late October. “So for your safety and to get the park open on time, please keep out. Thank you.”

Martensville Fire Rescue responded to two collisions last week at the south entrance to Martensville on Highway 12 and Lutheran Road. The first vehicle collision took place on Wednesday June 17 at 5:36 p.m. Three people were injured and transported to hospital. The second collision happened on Friday, June 19 at 7:38 a.m. Two people were injured and transported to hospital by MD Ambulance paramedics. Martensville Fire Chief Kurtis Dyck and Deputy Fire Chief Dean Brooman sent out a call urging drivers not to proceed cross the highway until they have a clear view of all traffic. “That includes if a vehicle is turning right off the highway and you are waiting to cross,”

said Dyck. “Wait until the vehicle has completed its turn so you can see traffic that is going straight through on the highway. With the added summer traffic heading north to the lake drivers need to be patient when leaving the city.” Brooman said the Martensville Fire Department has experienced an increase in its call volume. So far this year the department has responded to a total of 147 calls, including: Fire Alarm Bells (no fires) - 21 Calls; Carbon Monoxide - 6 Calls; Fire Calls (Corman Park) - 12 Calls; Fire Calls (City of Martensville) 15 Calls; Medical Calls (Corman Park) 7 Calls; Medical Calls (City of Martensville) 73 Calls; MVC (Corman Park) - 9 Calls; MVC (City of Martensville) - 4 Calls.

dazzling divas take part in relay for life

The Dazzling Divas participated in their seventh Relay for Life on Friday at Diefenbaker Park in Saskatoon. This was the 15th anniversary for the Relay in Saskatoon and the Divas are very proud of their participation in this event that raises funds and awareness in the fight against all types of cancer. The evening is a celebration with survivors, thoughtful and heartfelt remembrance of those we lost and encouragement to fight back. Thanks to many local businesses and individual supporters, the Divas raised over $19,000.00 through two fundraising events and pledges for the Canadian Cancer Society. This is an all time high for the team. The Dazzling Divas are very grateful to all their supporters and will continue to support this great cause in the future.(Submitted by team captains Joan Steckler and Lynn Remeshylo)
