Home destroyed, two others damaged Pedestrian struck and

By TERRY JENSON tjenson@ccgazette.ca One home was completely destroyed and two others seriously damaged after fire ripped through a neighborhood in Martensville’s south end.

Martensville and Warman fire departments were called at about 6:30 Saturday morning, August 29, to the 200 block of Enns Crescent and were on scene for just over three hours.

Police were on the scene investigating and provincial fire investigators were expected to arrive later Saturday to try and determine the cause. Witnesses heard loud popping before discovering the fire. All three homes were occupied at the time and all residents were able to escape uninjured.

Enns Crescent was covered in a sea of foam as nearby residents and onlookers surveyed the damage. Traffic was restricted in the neighbourhood for several hours.

Fire investigators later determined that the cause of blaze was accidental. An estimate of the damage was not available.

killed on Highway 16 near Borden Bridge

By TERRY JENSON tjenson@ccgazette.ca Just before 10:00 Friday night, August 28, Warman RCMP were called to a fatal collision involving a pedestrian and a vehicle just west of the Borden Bridge on Highway 16.

A 15-year-old female was walking on the travelled portion of the highway while attempting to flag down a passing vehicle. She was struck by an SUV travelling at highway speeds.

CPR was performed by first responders until MD Ambulance arrived, however the 15-year-old died on scene.

Alcohol was not a factor for the driver of the SUV.

Firefighters from Martensville and Warman deployed foam (above) in an effort to contain flames shooting from the roof of a home on Enns Crescent.

At right, police and fire crews survey the damage.

Warman RCMP continue to investigate along with the Office of the Chief Coroner.

The RCMP will not be releasing names of those involved.

Traffic westbound on Highway 16 was stopped while emergency personnel dealt with the situation. Several response vehicles could be seen by motorists waiting at the top of the hill near the bridge.

RCMP re-opened the westbound lanes of the highway at approximately 1:45 am Saturday.

No other details, including the name of the deceased pedestrian, were released by police.

The driver of a half-ton pickup truck was able to walk away from the wreck after his vehicle rolled on Highway 16 on Wednesday, August 26. Warman RCMP, Dalmeny Fire Rescue and MD Ambulance responded to the incident, which occurred a few kilometers west of the Dalmeny Access Road at about 9:30 a.m. According to an RCMP constable at the scene, the eastbound half-ton, which carried Alberta plates, was in

the passing lane when it apparently veered off the divided highway and hit an approach in the median. The impact resulted in a blowout in one of the truck’s front tires, causing the vehicle to skid across the road, where it rolled once and ended up in the south ditch. Road conditions and weather were good at the time. The police investigation into the incident is currently underway.

A woman was taken to Royal University Hospital on Thursday, August 27 following a vehicle-pedestrian collision on Central Street in Warman. The incident happened at about 2:15 p.m. The 58-year-old woman received undisclosed injuries after being hit by a vehicle that was making a left turn westbound from 5th Avenue. Warman Fire Rescue responded to the collision along with MD Ambulance. The incident is under investigation by Warman RCMP and charges against the 64-year-old female operator of the vehicle are pending.

Educators hold key to students’ future, young speaker tells PSTA

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Teachers have the ability to profoundly influence young people in a positive way, according to Safiya Sidyot, a 12-year-old student from Saskatoon.

Sidyot, the keynote speaker at the Prairie Spirit Teachers Association ({PSTA) general assembly in Warman on Friday, August 28, told the 700 teachers gathered in the auditorium of Warman High School that they “have the power that very few people in the world have: the power to change the world, one child at a time.”

Sidyot, the daughter of Imam Ilyas Sidyot, attends an Islamic school in Saskatoon. A passionate and articulate public speaker, she made a big impact from the podium at a We Day event last year.

She promotes a message of peace, tolerance and community-building.

“School is just around the corner,” said Sidyot.

“Being a teacher is probably the most rewarding job out there because you teach us the art of living, you nurture talent and you cultivate young minds.

“You teach us what it means to be successful.

You teach us to dream big, and to never fear failure.”

Sidyot said educators are able to bring children out of their shells and encourage them to contribute to

the class and the larger community.

“You have no idea how much one sentence that comes out of your mouth can mean to us,” she said.

“That one sentence can play in our minds over and over again, and make us think. It could be that one sentence that changes our lives around completely.

“You have the power that very few people in

this world have. You have the ability to encourage a child to get up and make a difference, to push through problems and find solutions.”

Sidyot said knowledge is power, and teachers are heroes who use the power of education “to shine the light of love and kindness and understanding that will make this world a better place.”

Teachers committed to education excellence, says PSTA president

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Teachers in Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) are feeling the financial pinch, but are still committed to providing students with high-quality education.

Prairie Spirit Teachers Association (PSTA) President Cindy Clarke said it’s no secret that PSSD is facing a budgetary crisis.

“I think that is probably the biggest challenge this year,” said Clarke in an interview during a break at the PSTA annual conference in Warman on Friday, August 28. “Our division is working to keep up the stan-

dard of education that it’s providing with a much lower budget than what is required, and our teachers are trying to do the best they can within that context.

“Dollars translate into programming and support for kids in school; and if the dollars aren’t there, then that trickles down to the classroom.

“No matter how hard our division might work to make things go along as they have in the past, it will have an impact, and that means our teachers will struggle to provide the same level of service that

they have in the past.”

Clarke said the PSTA is committed to working with the board of education and PSSD administration to keep students’ interests front and centre.

“We all have our own roles that we play in terms of representation and management, but in Prairie Spirit especially we strive to work together to make things happen,” she said.

Clarke said teachers across the province are facing a number of issues, including balancing professional duties with the reality of cutbacks and increased pressure on their

Prairie Spirit Teachers Association President Cindy Clarke time.

“Our representatives at the provincial level are in

discussions with officials at the Ministry of Education,” she said. “There have been some structural changes to the way that education is expected to be delivered.”

She said PSSD is unique in that it is made up of both urban and rural schools, which gives teachers in the division a balanced perspective.

“There is no one-size-fitsall solution,” said Clarke. “I think our division is very representative of the province as a whole because we are so diverse.

“We’re not solely urban and we’re not solely rural.

That means when we bring

an issue to the provincial council of the Saskatchewan Teachers Federation, we’re very in tune with what’s happening across the province.”

Clarke said the teachers are pumped about starting classes this week.

“Teachers are always enthusiastic about a new school year,” she said.

“That’s probably the reason we got into education in the first place, because we love school so much. We were all very successful in school and we want others to be successful.

“I would say this is the beginning of a great year.”

Dalmeny still waiting for go ahead on gas station

WAYNE SHIELS | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Harvest ahead of schedule across most of province Producers have 16 per cent of the 2015 crop combined and 19 per cent swathed or ready to straight-cut as of the end of August, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report.

The five-year (2010-2014) average for this time of the year is six per cent combined and 14 per cent swathed or ready to straightcut.

Regionally, producers in

the southwest have 33 per cent of the crop combined, while those in the southeast have 27 per cent combined.

Eight per cent of the crop is combined in the west-central region, three per cent in the east-central and northwestern regions, and two per cent in the northeast.

Rainfall and cool temperatures during the week caused some delays in harvesting.

Rainfall ranged from trace amounts to two and a half inches in some areas. Provincially, topsoil moisture conditions on cropland are rated as seven per cent surplus, 81 per cent adequate, 11 per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as three per cent surplus, 73 per cent adequate, 19 per cent short and five per cent very short.

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca The Town of Dalmeny is still waiting for a response from Hepburn Co-op on whether a new gas station will be built in the community by 2016, according to Dalmeny Mayor Nick Bakker.

The gas station would be located on the main service road leading into town.

When the proposed development was initially floated, some landowners along the service road objected to a local improvement levy that would have seen them pay a portion of the installation of new sewer and water lines; which is one of the conditions in the agreement reached between the town and the co-op earlier this year.

The total cost of the water and sewer line project is estimated to be about $500,000.

Landowners along the service road have the option of hooking into the new lines at their own expense.

Bakker said at this point, forcing landowners to cover the lion’s share of the cost of a new line through a local improvement levy is not a fair option.

“Council took at look at it and questioned whether landowners living along the service road really needed a full water and sewer hook up,” said Bakker. “They already have water now and

septic tanks. It would be a pretty significant cost for them to get involved for local improvement.”

Bakker said the town has engaged a local consultant to review its options with regard to servicing the proposed gas station with water and sewer line. One option includes installing a gravity flow line. The other involves a forced main sewer line.

While waiting for a response from Hepburn Co-op, the town is entertaining offers from other developers.

“We had a meeting a couple of weeks ago with representatives from Mistawasis First Nation and they have some land south of Dalmeny where Highway 305 intersects with Dalmeny Road,” said Bakker. “They are interested in doing something with that property and developing that. Of course one of the first things that came to our mind as a council is whether they are interested in putting a gas station on that land.”

Bakker said Mistawasis could not confirm what their intentions will be.

The goal is to obviously attract a company to build a

gas station, which has been a heavily debated topic for years on Dalmeny town council.

“Before my time on council; when I retired from policing in 2005, I knew there was a time when I would run for mayor so I stayed at arms length with everything,” said Bakker, the former Chief of the Dalmeny Police Service. “I didn’t keep myself in the loop, but I believe there was a request for proposal (RFP) issued by the town.”

Hepburn Co-op submitted a proposal that resulted in a conditional agremeent.

However, there were other expressions of interest from other companies.

Bakker said he is confident Hepburn Co-op will give the go-ahead on the development. He noted that a gas station would make things a lot more convenient for Dalmeny residents.

“There is one saving grace in that a lot of people work in Warman, Martensville and Saskatoon so you always have access to a fuel supply,” said Bakker. “But it would be far more convenient to have something in town.”

Warman Skate Park set to open this month

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Warman Skate Park is on schedule and should be ready in early September, according to Warman Recreation and Community Services Manager Paul McGonigal.

McGonigal told the Warman City Council meeting on Monday, August 24 that New Line Skateparks, the designer and contractor for the facility, has made great progress over the last couple of weeks.

The city’s recreation and community services department is planning a grand opening celebration with special activities. That will be the date when the facility is made available for public use. The date has not yet been set because some landscaping must be done before it can open.

The skate park company currently has a security person on duty to prevent vandalism.

SPONSOR WALL

Warman City Council approved the installation of a sponsor wall at the top of the main staircase in the Legends Centre at the August 24 council meeting. The sponsor wall will be located on the west wall of the facility.

BLADES GAME

The Saskatoon Blades will play an exhibition game against the Prince Albert Raiders at the Legends Centre in Warman on Saturday, September 12.

But the Blades won’t be back at the Legends Centre for training camp this year, noted McGonigal in his report to council. The Blades are booked at SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon, the team’s home facility, after signing a multi-year lease.

VANDALISM IN PARKS

Several parks and other recreational facilities in Warman were hit with a rash of vandalism in the last few days of summer, noted McGonigal.

“It’s something that seems to happen every year when the weather is nice and the kids start coming back just before school,” said McGonigal. “We had our staff out painting over and removing graffiti in several areas; and we also had to replace some trees that were destroyed.”

Dairy Queen president and CEO visits Warman

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca It is not very often that the president and CEO of a international fast food chain visits with its franchisee partners, but Warman’s Dairy Queen received its own special treat when John Gainor dropped by August 12.

Gainor, who is president and CEO of Dairy Queen International, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, said his two-day visit was the first time he had set foot in Saskatchewan.

“Each year I try to go into a different market and since we have not been up here and we have a lot of new development, I wanted to come up and spend a couple of days with our operators,” said Gainor.

Warman’s Dairy Queen opened up over a year ago but there are plans to add seven more franchises a year in Saskatchewan, said Gainor.

After observing the surroundings of the Warman franchise, Gainor said he was impressed.

“This store has really gotten off to a really great start and when I stand here and look around I can see that the shopping area is still

filling out, the petro station just opened, which is good because it will draw more traffic into this area.”

Gainor’s other reason for traveling to Saskatchewan was because of Dairy Queen’s Miracle Treat Day held on Thursday, August 13. Dairy Queen has a 31year relationship with Children’s Miracle Network hospitals.

“We have 170 hospitals in our network in the U.S. and 14 are here in Canada. What I love about it is all of the money that is raised in a community stays in that local community. This is really our charity of choice. We have raised over a $100 million in 31 years being affiliated with them,” said Gainor.

Last year Dairy Queen raised $217,000 from the sale of Dairy Queen blizzards in Saskatchewan alone, which will go towards the new children’s hospital to be built in Saskatoon.

This year Dairy Queen will be celebrating its 75th anniversary. With so much choice for people when it comes to fast food restaurants, Gainor said when people think of Dairy Queen good memories follow, which allows them to be

competitive.

“When you visit our stores you can really see those great memories across generations. We invented soft serve ice cream so we are still the leader of soft serve ice cream but our food business has really grown over the years. We are known for great burgers, chicken strip baskets and other food products. But right now we are in the middle of launching our DQ Bakes line,” said Gainor.

Terry Burnett, who coowns the Warman DQ franchise with his wife, Jennifer, said they were honoured to have Gainor visit the Warman location.

“It means a lot when his first trip to Saskatchewan involves a visit to the Warman Dairy Queen location as soon as he gets off the plane. It is a very rewarding accomplishment,” said Burnett. He says it also means a lot when Gainor recognizes the economic de-

velopment happening in the province.

During the visit, Burnett said Gainor will also include customer service and management advice as well as information on what future Dairy Queen builds will look like.

The most important thing to take from Gainor’s visit is the importance of community involvement, which he said is well known and important to Dairy Queen International.

Convention kick-starts school year

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca About 700 members of the Prairie Spirit Teachers Association (PSTA) converged on Warman High School (WHS) on Friday, August 28 to kick off the new school year with their annual general assembly.

“It’s the one day of the year where our association meets to conduct its business,” said PSTA President Cindy Clarke. “We hold our annual general meeting, pass our budget and have our annual reports.

“But there’s also time set aside for professional development sessions, which are all run by teachers, and we also offer networking sessions where they can get together with their colleagues.”

It’s a packed agenda, and Clarke said the objective is to provide information and inspiration to educators across the school division.

“It’s a way of cranking up the positive energy and getting everyone ready to go back to work,” she said.

Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) Board of Education Chair Larry Pavloff told delegates that one of the most important roles for teachers is to provide a positive role model for students, and to find a way of connecting with kids that gets them interested in school and in learning.

Pavloff said sometimes teachers need to be creative.

He provided an example

from his own student days when a teacher in his rural community organized a target practice club for the kids after school. Pavloff said having that kind of informal activity outside the classroom opened up lines of communication and offered kids that weren’t academically-inclined an opportunity to excel. That was the spur that motivated him to become a better student, and eventually, a teacher himself.

PSSD Education Director John Kuzbik said the school division is committed to providing excellence in education and is working to keep up with growing enrolment during a time of budgetary pressures.

Saskatchewan Teachers Federation (STF) President Patrick Maze provided delegates with an update on provincial issues.

A new collective bargaining agreement was adopted last February following a conciliation process. The terms of settlement include a wage increase of 7.55 per cent over four years and a 0.25 per cent increase in government pension contribution rates to the STF retirement plan effective July 1, 2016.

A new provincial regulatory body for teachers has also been established as part of the agreement.

The PSTA general assembly held a closed session followed by professional development sessions.

The reality, rhetoric and ‘rithmetic of childcare

COMMENTARY

By Ian Munro Independent economic and policy consultant Atlantic Institute for Market Studies As summer winds down, we can count on at least two topics to attract an increasing share of Canadians’ attention: their children - yes, the new school year is just about upon us - and the federal election to be held on October 19th.

These two subjects converge in the parties’ campaign promises related to childcare delivery and financial support for families. The Conservatives rolled out their amended Universal Childcare Benefit in July. It features an increase from $100 per month to $160 per month for children six and under, a new $60 per month credit for children aged seven to 18, and a $1,000 increase in the maximum allowable tax deduction for childcare expenses. Last May, the Liberals proposed a new Canada Child Benefit that would start at $6,400 per child under age six and at $5,400 per child aged six to 17, tax-free. This benefit would phase out as family income rises. In October of last year, the NDP fired one of the first shots of the “pre-campaign” by announcing its plan to fund 370,000 new childcare spaces across the country all while ensuring that parents do not pay more than $15 per day for a childcare space.

As the rhetoric intensifies and the debate deepens during the election campaign in the coming weeks, facts and perspective are at risk of taking a back seat to hyperbole and incomplete information. There are several points voters may wish to bear in mind as they contemplate the proposals before them.

There may be localized, or perhaps even widespread, shortages of quality childcare spaces across Canada. However, quality data on the size and nature of the problem are in short supply. The agency that is best equipped to generate comprehensive evidence of childcare shortages, Statistics Canada, has not addressed the question since the 1980s. We should understand - and measure - the problem before we dive into expensive fixes.

Heavy subsidization of childcare services reduces the direct out-of-pocket daily cost to parents, but subsidies ultimately have to be paid for out of tax revenue. Paying $10 in fees plus $10 in taxes takes the same bite out of the family budget as $15 in fees and $5 in taxes. Childcare and family support proposals are measured in the billions of dollars. Universal programs that subsidize the childcare expenses of affluent Canadians are unwise additions to already stressed government budgets.

An important benefit of having a federated state is that it allows for diversity and experimentation across its constituent parts. There is much we still do not know about the most efficient and effective ways for government to support the provision of childcare services. Furthermore, the voters of Newfoundland and Labrador, for example, simply may not desire the same approach as the voters of Ontario do. Let the provinces chart their own courses and learn from each others successes and mistakes.

If voters in any one province think that the government in another province has got it right, there is nothing to prevent that approach from being adopted. There is no need for a federally-imposed one-size-fits-all solution.

There are sound arguments for government support in some aspects of childcare provision. If done well, significant benefits may accrue; if neglected, opportunities will be lost. If done poorly, there is the all too real possibility of grandiose childcare schemes ultimately manifesting the worst aspects of our health care system: costly, inflexible and confrontational. © 2015 Distributed by Troy Media

Wall walks a dangerous line Really, the only people who should be telling you how to vote are the people who are running for office themselves.

It’s certainly not the job of the media and, notwithstanding the views of angry old Conservatives who feel Prime Minister Stephen Harper isn’t getting a fair shake because he’s being asked about what his direct staff knew about that $90,000 cheque to Mike Duffy, reporters have voiced no such opinions.

Various interest groups clearly feel it’s their job to tell you how to vote; often based on nothing other than a single issue. However, federal election laws have clamped down on how vocal they can actually be during the campaign period.

But one group that should really not be telling you how to vote is other politicians, specifically those politicians at other levels of government that must work with whomever gets in power for the best interest of people in their jurisdiction.

And in that sense, Premier Brad Wall is playing a bit of dangerous game in ANGELA HEIDEL

Provincial Politics

what very much seems a backdoor way to get this federal campaign back on Harper’s agenda.

In fairness to Wall, he is neither first nor the only provincial leader to butt into federal campaigns. And he is has by no means been the worst. That distinction should likely goes to Ontario Liberal Premier Kathleen Wynne, who eagerly picked a fight with Harper on the Ontario Pension plan.

Moreover, it’s hardly any secret that there have been very close ties between the Saskatchewan Party and the Conservatives from the very beginning, including Wall who makes no bones that he and his family support and campaign for local MP David Anderson.

Many rural Sask. Party MLAs represent the same voters as rural MPs, so there would be a natural allegiance in issues and how they are approached.

For example, it’s very hard

to find a Sask. Party MLA critical of the Conservatives’ position on gun control or the Canadian Wheat Board’s demise.

That said, the co-existence can get a bit too cozy when it comes to federal support for Saskatchewan initiatives like highway programs or the new stadium or even the approach that the federal Conservatives took with the railways when it came to getting the grain moving.

But while politicians are certainly allowed their personal opinions that are roughly going to fall in line with party members or likethinking parties at other levels, a line is crossed when a provincial politician uses his or her avails of office to persuade voters how they should vote.

With that in mind, Wall might be playing a dangerous game in his attempt to push voters away from unpopular Conservative issues like the Duffy trial and towards issues supposedly to Harper’s strength like the economy.

Wall told CBC Radio’s The House a couple weeks ago that “it’s remarkable that

we’ve heard as little as we have” on the economy and heard so much about “a certain trial underway in Canada is taking up a lot of oxygen.”

Wall may be right to suggest that the economy had been receiving short shrift and well within his right at least to send letters to Harper, NDP Leader Tom Mulcair and Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau, inquiring about the party leaders for their policies related to energy, genetically modified organisms, pipelines and equalization payments.

From there, Wall suggested his government will analyze the positions and make a determination as to whose policies would be best for Saskatchewan.

While the economy is important, the implication of Wall’s approach; even if he tries to suggest otherwise; is that it is the only issue by which voters should be making their decision.

This is not how it works.

Voters get to vote for whomever they want for whatever reason they want.

And Wall may very well be overstepping the line in his role.

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

The Clark’s Crossing Gazette welcomes the submission of news stories, photos, letters or any other information that would be of interest to the readers of this newspaper.

NEWS OR SPORTS STORIES

If you or someone you know has been involved in an event you think is newsworthy, please include your name and contact information (either a daytime telephone number and/or email address). Please send the information in a timely manner following the event and remember to include as much pertinent information as possible, including the following:

1. WHO was involved?

2. WHAT was the event?

3. WHEN and WHERE did the event occur?

4. WHY was the event important?

PHOTO GUIDELINES & TIPS

All the information that goes with a news story should also accompany photo(s) as above. Include the names of all the people in each photo and identify from left to right and from back to front.

1. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the

final outcome of the photo in print.

2. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a built-in zoom lens extended will

produce “grainy” images that do not reproduce well.

3. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot.

4. “Presentation” photos typically don’t work well if there are too many people side-by-side in the frame.

If there are many people in the photo, have them as close together as possible and, if needed, have

the front row seated and the back row standing.

5. Remember taking a picture facing into the sun or bright light will produce poor quality images.

Capital projects continue in Warman

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A long-awaited capital project to pave one of the last of the gravel-surfaced residential streets in Warman is finally underway.

Warman City Council voted August 24 to award a tender to Paramount Paving in the amount of $894,601.

The portion of Haichert Street covered by the project is also having storm sewer lines installed, along with curbs, gutters and paving. Traffic is currently being detoured down Rigmor Street while the project is underway. It is still expected to be completed this fall.

Warman City Manager Stan Westby told the Au-

on Monday’s firings Hilltops dominate The first takeRIDER INSIDER in home opener

by Wayne Shiels essenceofsask@gmail.com The Saskatoon Hilltops improved their record to 3-0 with an impressive 65-9 victory over the visiting Winnipeg Rifles in the home opener played at SMF Field on Sunday, August 30.

The Toppers got off to a quick start when Bryant Sackney returned the opening kickoff 100 yards for a TD, and didn’t let up from there, building a 21-0 lead halfway through the first quarter. They led 49-7 at halftime and cruised to a 65-9 final score as most of the starters sat out the second half of the game.

The Toppers were led by a ferocious defence that had eight sacks, two fumble recoveries and two interceptions. Linebacker Cole Benkic scored on an interception return and defensive lineman Tom Schnitzler had an epic TD celebration after he scored on a 9 yard fumble recovery.

Running back Logan Fischer had a pair of first quarter TDs. The first on a three yard run and the second on a 15-yard pass and run. Receiver Evan Kopchyns-

ki made a great over the shoulder catch for a 35-yard TD grab.

Former Delisle running back Des Vessey scored on a one yard plunge after he had used his great speed to run the ball to the one yard line. Kicker Brett Thorarinson added a FG and kept the Rifles pinned deep with his punting, resulting in Winnipeg giving up three safeties. Adam Machart completed the scoring with a 46 yard fourth quarter run.

Winnipeg’s star receiver Ian Lee made a great diving catch for the Rifle’s only TD. Hilltops Head coach Tom Sargent was very pleased with all aspects of their game. “The coaches are extremely proud of their effort,” said Sargent.

Of the defence’s performance he added, “they dictated, they dominated. They did a great job of leading today.”

The win sets up what should be a classic matchup for first place in the Prairie Football Conference with their provincial rivals, the Regina Thunder. The Hilltops face the 3-0 Thunder Saturday, September 5 at SMF Field at 7:00 pm.

At first glance, it appears like Corey Chamblin gave the Saskatchewan Roughriders no choice but to fire him on Monday, August 31 and he took the GM down with him.

That’s pretty much what the situation is, but there’s plenty more to examine after the historic firings of Corey Chamblin and Brendan Taman by Canada’s Team.

Historic because I can’t remember a time when both the coach and GM were shown the door together, unless it occured before I started following the team.

Let me start by saying this: Chamblin had almost universal support throughout the organization when they won the Grey Cup in 2013. However, as one team staffer told me earlier this summer, “As soon as he lifted that Cup over his head, he changed. It became all about him.”

Former Rider President Jim Hopson is being tarred and feathered by some for awarding Taman and Chamblin with hefty fouryear contract extensions in the spring of 2014, but his intentions were good. And far be it for anyone to question Hopson’s decisions from 2005 to 2014. Hopson rewarded these two with new deals to reward their accomplishment for delivering a championship in the biggest season in Rider history. He

also wanted them to be able to go about their jobs without having to look over their shoulders.

How was he to know Chamblin was going to go off track and take Taman with him? I was leery of it at the time, but who the hell am I. Maybe it even began before that.

Things started to smell fishy in December of 2012 when Chamblin called special teams coordinator Craig Dickenson into his office and told him he was changing the terms of his contract. It all had to do with the agreed-upon start date for the next season and Dickenson balked. A deal’s a deal and it was in black and white. Dickenson had a job in less than 24 hours, with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and later the Edmonton Eskimos. He didn’t need to put up with that garbage.

Offensive coordinator Bob Dyce was demoted to make room for free agent coach George Cortez, and Dyce was later handed the portfolio of special teams coach.

Being ego-less, Dyce humbly accepted the move and knocked it

out of the park.

Another red flag went up during the 2014 season after Durant’s injury. There was a plan to go with the young quarterbacks, then that was yanked and they signed Kerry Joseph. Joseph wasn’t happy with the way he was dealt with. Everybody was in the dark. What was the plan? Nobody knew. And as Jeremy O’Day noted on CKRM late last summer, they were noticing a trend despite their seven game winning streak. “We weren’t blowing teams out anymore,” the GMin-waiting said at the time. Was the talent base eroding?

Another Rider staffer saw something during training camp this year that I was oblivious to. He said, “Chamblin won’t be around to coach a game in the new stadium.” This guy saw something that I didn’t at the time, but frankly I’m hardly around the team at all except for the occasions they’re on the field and I’m covering them.

It’s not like it used to be. I’m certainly not piling on Chamblin here but he put several measures in place that made it really difficult for me to do my job.

Sept. 20th 12:00 pm Great idea for an office excursion or a birthday gift!

There are several limitations in place to ensure Street Stocks remain one of the most competitive racing classes

What exactly is a Street Stock?

Sponsored by Golf’s Car Wash, the Street Stock Division is one of the most common divisions in North America with almost every track having some version of a Street Stock. Based originally on a domestic car with a minimum wheelbase of 101 inches, the favourites are Camaros, Firebirds and Monte Carlos with full roll cage and driver safety systems.

A Street Stock chassis is limited to what was originally offered with the car from the facto-

ry and the suspension to family line (GM to GM etc.) components that fit without modifications.

While these cars originally started life as a street driven automobile, they are lightened by cutting away all of the inner body structures and have enough adjustments to make them handle very well.

Limitations on engines and performance parts help keep big money from dominating but put it in the hands of the drivers and crew, making Street Stock some

of the most competitive racing seen anywhere.

The American Racer AR970 864 compound tire will be introduced to the Street Stock division for the 2014 season.

This tire is an 8 inch grooved racing slick that will be mounted on an 8 inch wide racing wheel.

In 2011, the following cars became legal for the Street Stock * 1982 to 2002 Camaro and Firebird * 1983 to 1988 Thunderbird and Cougar * 1994 to 2011 Mustang

Are the races postponed?

Are the races still on?

Whenever the weather looks like it might rain, or has rained in the morning or afternoon, this question is always on everyone’s mind.

Although we try our very best to provide as much notice as we can whenever races are cancelled, sometimes the decision to cancel a race

cannot be made until late in the afternoon, or even just before race time.

Whenever a race program is postponed, or cancelled, a notice will be posted on our website (www.autoclearingmotorspeedway.ca) and a voice message put on our Information Hot Line 651-FAST (3278). Although we advise the me-

dia of any postponements or cancellations, they cannot always pull advertisements that are already programmed into their systems. Radio and TV announcers do their best to announce any changes.

If you are in doubt please check the website or call the Information Hot Line.

The Saskatoon Stock Car Racing Association (SSCRA) Ltd. originated from the Saskatoon Stock Car Racing Club. The unincorporated Saskatoon Stock Car Racing Club was formed in 1954 and operated a stock car racing program out of the 8th Street Racing Oval, called the Motordrome, on land then owned by Andrew Hawrich and now an area between McKercher Drive and Moss Avenue in the City of Saskatoon.

In 1968, as a result of the expansion of the City of Saskatoon, the SSCRA found itself looking for another piece of land to keep the sport of stock car racing growing. For a few years, beginning in 1970, the grandstand area at the current Prairieland Exhibition was the home of SSCRA and stock car racing in Saskatoon.

In 1971, a farmer just east of Saskatoon, Bill Kusch, offered the SSCRA a 23-acre parcel of land for $1 down and ten years to pay off the balance. Once this land was secured, George Frey, Al Bakke, and a few others went to the bank, offering up their homes as security and they obtained the financing needed to start construction of a new track called “Bridge City Speedway”.

In 1999, the City of Saskatoon advised the SSCRA of its intention to annex the Corporation’s 23acre parcel of land into the

boundaries of the City of Saskatoon. As was the case in 1968, this became necessary as a result of the continued growth and expansion of the city. Shortly after receipt of this news SSCRA formed a Track Relocation Committee and began investigating potential locations for a new home.

In 2004, a 35-acre parcel of land just north of the City of Saskatoon, in the Rural Municipality of Corman Park became available. The SSCRA purchased this property and construction work commenced in April 2005.

In 2006, we began to race at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway. It has proven to be one of the best racing facilities in Canada! Each year, drivers from across Canada and the United States compete at this amazing facility.

In addition to the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series making annual stops at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway, the track has also been home to the Canada Remembers International Air Show as well as the Monsters and Mayhem monster truck show.

Hanley athlete says Pan Am games was a rewarding experience

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Taryn Suttie of Hanley says she’ll use her experience at the recent Pan Am Games to build her career in the sport.

Suttie finished with a 16.80 metre throw that placed her tenth overall in her event at the games, held in Toronto, July 10-26.

It was her first appearance at the Pan Am Games, but she’s no stranger to high-level competition.

Suttie was a double gold medalist at the 2011 CIS Championships in the hammer throw and shot put. She was named Outstanding Female Athlete of the Meet and CIS Female Field Athlete of the Year.

Suttie also won shot put bronze at the 2012 North American, Central American and Caribbean Championships (NACAC) U23 meet.

She captured the Canadian title in 2015 after placing second in 2012 and 2014. She had been third in 2011 and 2013.

Suttie set her shot put per-

Hanley Track and Field athlete Taryn Suttie finished tenth overall in the shot put event at the Pan Am Games held July 10-26 in Toronto sonal best at 17.61 metres in April 2015.

Suttie said she was a little disappointed with her performance at the Pan Am Games.

“I didn’t feel I threw my best at all, but the competi-

Report from the

tion was very strong.

It was good to be in the competition with these girls throwing that far. It gave me exposure to competing at that level.”

Suttie’s goal heading into

the competition was to place in the top eight, which would have given her three extra throws.

Because the games were held in Toronto more Canadian track and field athletes

were allowed to compete, but the timing of the games may have been a factor in her final results.

“I kind of had to come out early in the season throwing far to hit qualifying marks for the Olympic trials and the World Championships to get myself into a top position going into Pan Am Games,” said Suttie.

“With the games being as late as they were. I think that played a part too.

I don’t want to say I was burnt out, but I was tired and couldn’t keep up with that 17.60 metre mark.”

Shot Put athletes will have to reach a mark of 17.80 metres and place in the top three at the Canadian Championships in order to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil. Suttie said her focus next year will be to come out stronger late in the year.

Overall she said she was happy with her experience.

“I gained a lot of experience and I did take away a lot from the competition

so I am grateful,” said Suttie. “I was hoping to throw a lot further but that is sometimes how it goes in track and field.”

Suttie moved to Kamloops, B.C. four years ago to train said there are not a lot of track and field athletes who come out of Hanley, a small community of about 500 people 50 km south of Saskatoon. She is always proud to represent her town at national and international competitions “I just love Hanley. People there always send me positive messages on social media whenever I compete,” said Suttie. “I am very fortunate to come from a place that gives me so much support.”

2015-16 Pre-Season

Nancy Heppner MLA MARTENSVILLE CONSTITUENCY

P3 Model Saves Government More Than $30 Million on Construction Costs of New Schools Martensville, Regina, Saskatoon and Warman are some of the fastest growing communities in Saskatchewan. To accommodate the unprecedented growth in these communities, we’re building 18 new, publicly-owned schools at nine joint-use sites.

Each joint-use site will include 90 new child care spaces and a community centre. They will be stateof-the-art and by using a P3 model, taxpayers will end up saving more than $100 million. Construction starts this fall and will be complete before September 2017.

Government Committed to Improving Provincial Parks With millions of visits each year, Saskatchewan’s Provincial Parks are proving to be a popular destination. As another season of adventure winds down, Provincial Parks will start to see upgrades in order to meet demand and ensure the visitor experience is better than ever before.

Funding for capital projects and upgrades to Provincial Parks will total $14.6 million in 2015-16. This funding meets our commitment to invest an additional $10 million on expansion and growth opportunities in Provincial Parks for a total investment of more than $53 million since 2012.

Some of the projects undertaken in recent years include brand new campgrounds, electrical expansion and upgrades; the replacement of visitor reception centres and campground service centres and infrastructure projects including water, wastewater, landfills and road upgrades and repairs.

Nominations Open for Province’s Highest Honour and Outstanding Volunteers Nomination deadlines are fast approaching for both the Saskatchewan Order of Merit and the Volunteer Medal. Individuals have until October 18th to recommend nominees for the Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal and until November 1st to put forward names for the Saskatchewan Order of Merit.

The Saskatchewan Order of Merit and the Saskatchewan Volunteer Medal celebrate remarkable individuals who have an enormous impact in our province and beyond our borders. I encourage everyone to consider nominating a deserving individual for these prestigious honours.

The Order of Merit recognizes excellence, achievement and contributions to the social, cultural and economic well-being of the province while The Volunteer Medal recognizes those who reach outside of their personal activities to help others and make Saskatchewan daily life better for everyone.

Delisle very close to completing first phase of outdoor sport multiplex

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.,ca The first phase of Delisle’s multiplex sports facility is taking shape.

The final steps, slated to take place in early September, involve rolling 90,000 square feet of sod onto two ball diamonds, said Delisle town councillor Ryan King.

“There is some work still to be done on the backstops and dugouts, but that will be wrapped up in the next week or two,” said King in

an interview in late August. “The topsoil was hauled, placed and graded in the outfields last week and the irrigation system was installed and should be running in a week and a half.”

The decision to build a new multiplex sports facility that includes four ball diamonds and a concession was announced by Delisle council last spring. The shovels started moving dirt early last May, said King.

The new diamonds are being built closer to town instead of across the tracks where the current ball diamonds are located. The ballpark had to be moved because the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure will be twinning Highway 7. Construction of the new bypass access points meant a new location had to be found.

The project is right on schedule, said King “We wanted to get an ir-

rigation system in place by the end of August. It kind of looks like it will be. The big goal was to get sod in place by mid-September so we could put some water to it and get some roots established so the diamonds could be used next spring for minor ball,” said King.

The next steps will be access points to the diamonds, a parking area, trees and placing shale on the diamonds. The shale will be stockpiled over the winter

Continued from page 7

Examining the firings in Riderville anybody why that happened but one of the theories was that Chamblin was behind it.

The rest of that matter will be handled internally with the new regime. Hopefully all of these policies change back to the way they were when things were harmonious. The relationships I built with coaches and players over the years while traveling together were being severed (How do you think I was able to get Brett Swain on the SportsCage in San Diego, Chris Getzlaf in Anaheim or secure the services of Paul Lapolice on radio on a weekly basis? All because of the relationships we built). For half a season in 2015, these were cut off completely. I was furious.

And I’d done nothing wrong.

I’ve been nothing but supportive of Chamblin and this regime.

My spider senses started tingling when Corey

Chamblin lost his cool on the Leader Post’s Murray McCormick in the Game 1 postgame news conference with his, “That’s a bullshit question Murray!” response. Granted the team had just lost the game, Darian Durant, Shea Emry, Nic Demski, Keenan MacDougall and Marshay Green.

But to me, it ran much deeper than that.

This was a coach losing his composure one game into the season. How much far back did it go? And why?

There’s not much left to say on Chamblin but the talk of him wanting to be the winningest head coach in CFL history was hogwash. Lip service. He wanted to get State-side to coach football as soon as possible and made no secret of it internally. As of today, he can go to the States as soon as he wants.

It’s too bad. I really liked the guy but it seemed as

though he changed for the worse.

Near the end too, it seemed like he was almost daring the franchise to fire him. His actions were so bizarre.

If Chamblin spends some time self-evaluating, he could re-emerge as one of the game’s all-time great coaches. Being fired is supposed to smarten you up.

It did to me so many years ago. Hopefully the same applies here. But he sabotaged himself.

Did he lose the room? I can’t say for sure. No players told me to my face they’d quit playing for him, however I never see the players because of the wedge that was driven in between. I suppose to that extent, his ploy worked.

As for Brendan Taman, I was fairly shocked to see he was released along with Chamblin.

Taman’s only fault is he

basically handed the keys to the organization over to Chamblin and forgot he himself was the boss. I asked someone in the organization last week why everyone’s so afraid of Chamblin and all I got in return was a blank stare. There didn’t seem to be an answer for that question. Now it doesn’t matter.

Last spring in an interview I did with former Rider coach Ken Miller at the annual Regina Thunder Sportsman’s Dinner at the Turvey Centre, I asked him what was the key to the team’s success during his tenure here from 2008 to 2010. His answer was “Trust”.

All that trust was gone with this franchise until yesterday. Nobody knew where they stood and there was no plan. Chamblin was trying “quick fix” solutions and Taman went along with it. Not anymore.

Aberdeen students learn life lessons on trip to Ecuador ment, paint tiles they could see that they were actually contributing to the community and it was actually making a difference. It was very empowering for the kids,” said White.

Students landed and visited Ecuador’s capital city of Quito, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the province of Chimborazo and when they were not helping to build a school they also visited with locals in an attempt to build relationships, which White said was a very rewarding experience.

“They spent half a day learning how an indigenous local women’s group use their sheep as a source of income. The kids got to sheer sheep and spin wool,”said White.

“The kids bought items from her and they went with another lady who walks miles to cut alfalfa for her pig and cow. They also planted potatoes and all together did three full days of service.”

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Nineteen Aberdeen Composite School students had the unique opportunity to experience a new culture that will forever change their lives during a trip to Ecuador, June 30 to July 12.

The trip was co-organized

by EF tours (Education First) and Free the Children (FTC) organizations designed to give students an opportunity to learn about culture, practice leadership skills and carry out meaningful service projects in A Free the Children “Adopt a Village” community.

The trip included students from Grade 7 to 12 and chaperones from the local community. The school spent two years fundraising for the trip, which was originally supposed to be Kenya, but was cancelled the day before by FTC because of terrorism fears in the northern part of the country.

The sudden change in schedule meant four of the original 23 students who fundraised for the April trip could not make it, but Ecuador didn’t leave anyone disappointed, said teacher Kelli White.

“When students go to other places and see how other people meet their daily needs they come home very thankful for what they have and value what they have a little bit more,” said White.

“On the entire trip there was no wifi, no one had their cell phones to check

“We knew prior that there were protests going on and they had all been reported peaceful. There was no danger to being in that area but there were ongoing protests about tax increases and a number of other things,” said White.

“We realized what we had to do was get out and walk with the protest past our hotel. So everyone grabbed a buddy, we locked arms, and we got in.”

On the return home White

said students were already excited and planning to fundraise their next service learning trip, which will be to Nicaragua in 2017.

White said the Ecuador trip was a life changing experience.

“I’m a big believer in learning from place and people and I think the kids will remember this more than some slide show or video or lesson I could give them in class. It is invaluable,” said White.

HEALTHY FOODS:

Johner Boys hit their stride with a new generation of music

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca When Quinn, Lucas and Jesse Johner took the stage at the 50th annual Farmers Day Festival in Estevan earlier this summer, they were the third generation of Johners to play that venue.

Their grandfather, who farmed in the area, started the tradition as an accordion player in a local polka band. It wasn’t long until his three sons, including Brad and Ken, joined the band and got their first taste of show business in their hometown.

Brad and Ken later went on to a 14-year recording career as the pop-country duo, the Johner Brothers. Brad translated that early success into a shining solo career when Ken retired from the music business in 2003.

BOYS IN THE BAND

Now, Brad is back in a band, this time with his three oldest sons and one of their pals. The Johner Boys includes 21-year old Lucas Johner on keyboards; 20-year-old Jesse Johner on drums; 17-yearold Quinn Johner on guitar; and 21-year-old Simon Jasieniuk, also on guitar.

It’s been a gradual evolution for Brad, who divides his gigs between solo acts and appearances with the band.

“It’s actually really cool,” said Brad in an interview at the family home in Grasswood, just south of Saskatoon in mid-August. “We do about 50 to 80 shows a year. It’s fun. There’s a whole new energy there.”

Plenty of energy; and also loads of talent and a personable charm that wins over audiences wherever they perform.

The Johner Boys play everything, and play it really well; effortlessly switching from hardcore Merle Haggard country to retro-sixties rock to Motown soul, and throwing in a hilarious Tim Hawkins’ parody of a Green Day classic along the way. In a concert setting, they’re a mature, professional band that always keeps an audience hungry for more. A three-hour concert on Friday, Au-

gust 28 at the Firestick Cafe at Solar Gardens near Pike Lake earned the guys a standing ovation.

“Music is a way of connecting with the audience,” said Brad.

“We play all kinds of styles to appeal to a wide variety of people.”

But they also like to push the envelope.

“Having the young guys around keeps me open to new ideas and new concepts,” said Brad. “Back in the early 1990s, my brother and I were kind of pushing that envelope at a time when traditional country was all over the radio. I love country, but I also like other stuff; music that has a real edge to it.”

The Johner Boys band has played two province-wide Telemiracle broadcasts, and Brad has been involved in that fundraising effort for over two decades. They say they’re committed to that organization because of the tremendous charitable work it does for people across the province.

“So many volunteers put in so many hours throughout the year,” said Simon. “It was a real eyeopener to see everything that goes on behind the scenes.”

The band has one CD on the market and is currently recording a second one, made up of original material. Brad and his wife Rhea also have two younger sons, a 13-year-old and a 10-year-old who also play with the band on occasion. A listing of upcoming shows by the band is available online atwww.bradjohner.com.

Your #1 Choice for Over Denture on Implants

By HILARY KLASSEN hilarylklassen@gmail.com A sea of information about healthy foods flashes before us daily. The information can seem legitimate, yet when you stack it up, it’s often contradictory. Should you be concerned about getting a ‘wheat belly?’ Are Canadians interested in GMOs and organic foods?

A new survey helps demystify the mind-set of consumers when it comes to healthy foods and ingredients. The survey was conducted by IPSOS on behalf of Ag-West Bio to provide insight into Canadian consumers’ perceptions of healthy food ingredients and natural health products.

Ag-West Bio is a non-profit Saskatchewan bioscience industry association that is member-based.

The online survey generated responses from 2201 individuals across Canada.

“This project was completed to build on western Canada’s present agri-food capacity with the aim of exploiting the opportunities available in a growing healthy food and ingredient market,” said Bev Stangeland, who handles International Business Development for Ag-West Bio. The survey indicates that 85 per cent of Canadians connect the food they eat with health. While 65 per cent have made changes to their diet for general health and wellbeing, only 39 per cent have made changes for specific health concerns.

A surprising discovery in the survey is that the 35 to 44 age group reported a high number of health concerns, often higher than the 55+ group, and most of those concerns were lifestyle related, i.e. weight management, stress and sleep, according to Stangeland.

In fact, a total of two-thirds of all respondents say they are concerned with controlling weight, CONTINUED ON PAGE 25

Dairy research partnership benefits university, agribusiness

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A partnership between the University of Saskatchewan’s dairy research facility, New Holland Agriculture, and a Saskatoon-based farm equipment dealer benefits all parties, says Tom Moody of Dalmeny, inventory manager for Moody’s Equipment.

“We’re supporting the next generation of farmers, essentially,” said Moody.

“It’s a way of supporting grassroots education and research. The kids going to school now will be the ones doing the research and owning dairy farms and being involved in the industry in the future. We see it as an investment.”

Since 2013, Moody’s and New Holland have provid-

ed two tractors and a utility vehicle to the U of S Rayner Dairy Research and Teaching Facility. The equipment is loaned to the university.

After about 800 hours of use, the equipment is returned to Moody’s, which then sells the units to farmers.

“We give the university brand new loaner equipment, and then after a certain point we take it back and give them another batch to use,” said Moody. “We’re on about our sixth batch of tractors since 2013.”

This week, a stretch of road at the facility on campus will be named “New Holland Lane” in recognition of the contribution of the companies.

The Rayner Dairy Research and Teaching facility opened in 2013, replac-

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

One of two New Holland tractors loaned to the University of Saskatchewan’s dairy research facility is used in the feeding operation ing the old stone dairy barn, a landmark building at the university, but one that was woefully outdated for research. The new building is renowned internationally and features 100 lactating cows and the latest innovations in the dairy industry, including robotic and parlour milking facilities. Re-

search projects at the facility focus on both herd health and individual animals.

The facility also operates as a commercial dairy producer, supplying milk to the local market utilizing pro-

vincially-issued quota.

The partnership with this facility is an extension of a long-standing practice with the university, explained Moody.

“Moody’s provides equip-

ment to the College of Engineering’s agricultural engineering program,” said Moody. “We also have an agreement with soil science to lend them tractors for the growing season.”

Survey taps into consumer choices but only about one-third actually cuts back on calories.

Almost everyone claims to read the nutrition information and ingredients list on processed foods. The top three items respondents are cutting back on are sugar, sodium and fats.

Canadians are aware of the GMO debate but the survey found that few are actively seeking out information; only five per cent claim to actually research the topic. Most take a more passive approach, exploring it when it comes up in the media or as a topic of conversation.

“A big trend we have seen from the last survey (conducted in 2012) is that Canadians want food and products that are made or grown in Canada and locally made or grown,” said Stangeland.

“Those numbers jumped to the top of the list of the attributes and claims that Canadian consumers are looking for, followed by ethically and/or sustainably grown or produced.” About 60 per cent of total respondents seek food with fewer, simpler ingredients.

The main objective of the survey is to provide Canadian market information to the agri-food industry to

An online survey aims to assist Canadians who are concerned about the origin and content of their food. help stimulate the development of healthier foods and beverages and strengthen the health and wellness sector in Canada.

“Feedback from our surveys has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Stangeland. “Small companies are just not able to do this kind of research as it is very expensive and time consuming, so they very much appreciate the information and are anxious to use it for product development and marketing.”

The survey identifies gaps in consumer knowledge that can lead to targeted health and wellness education. It will also create improved understanding of consumer demands for health and wellness products. With this knowledge, we could see increased launch of healthy processed food and/or better-for-you food products

as interested firms are better able to assess opportunities in the healthy food ingredient sector, according to Stangeland.

This new information will help companies with strategic planning and development. It will help producers mitigate risk and better position themselves in the marketplace by outlining consumer attitudes and emerging trends.

The survey is being made available in Saskatchewan first. Ag-West Bio will be traveling for some presentations this fall, including a seminar planned for Edmonton in October.

The majority of the funding for this survey was made available through the Agriculture Council of Saskatchewan. For more information or to inquire about the full survey, visit agwest. sk.ca

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca The RM of Corman Park approved a rezoning application by developer Christmas Properties to rezone a parcel of land located at the corner of Highway 219 and Grasswood Road, south of Saskatoon, during a council meeting July 20.

The approval brought an end to a heavily-contested debate between the developer and local land owners who say rezoning the land from DC2 to DC1 would lead to pollution concerns and limit the view of adjacent properties because of commercial buildings. They also said the development would cause drainage issues and increase traffic in the area.

The debate started in 2011 when the developer first applied to rezone the land, which led to a series of council, planning committee delegations over the next three years from both parties including a public consultation process where the developer was turned down twice.

After the developer filed a statement of claim against the RM of Corman Park in September, 2014 a mediation meeting was set up be-

tween both parties to come up with a solution.

Keith Morton is one of 40 landowners who live adjacent to the proposed Christmas Properties development.

During a public hearing to amend a bylaw to rezone the parcel of land to DC1 at the July 20 council meeting, Morton said residents were left in the dark during the mediation process.

“What I see is a developer getting what he wants at the expense of the residents on this quarter-section,” said Morton. “Again it brings up the question of what happened during the mediation process and who is looking after the interests of residents of Division 2.”

Morton said he asked RM of Corman Park Administrator Adam Tittemore for a transcript of the developer’s statement of claim during the mediation process, but was not given any names of the individuals involved in the claim.

The developer’s reason for rezoning the land from DC2 to DC1 was to allow for more commercial development on as many as six lots.

In the original application the number of allowable uses was modified,

said Crosby Hanna and Associates representative for Christmas Properties Jim Walters.

“There are some significant differences in this application. I guess the biggest difference is that we are not looking for a straight DC1.

Through the zoning contract there are 14 uses like wholesale, trade, auction facility that have been taken out so the actual number of uses that could go in there have gone down from 25 to 9,” said Walters.

Morton said during his statement to council that any decision to approve rezoning goes against a 1967 Saskatchewan Land Titles Registry restricted use covenant, which states 2/3 of local landowners have to give written consent for any modifications to parcels of land is this area. Morton also said if this agreement is breached the RM will be responsible for damages.

However, Tittemore said that covenant had an end date of 1977.

Morton said he was disappointed by Corman Park’s decision and said the behaviour of council during the entire process should raise alarm bells for residents of Corman Park.

MD Ambulance donates emergency vehicles to war-torn Urkaine

MD Ambulance, under the leadership of past President and CEO Dave Dutchak, announced that after several months of hard work and lobbying governments, ambulances from Canada will be sent to Ukraine for medical support to front line health care workers.

The Ambulances for Ukraine project is a cooperative humanitarian effort that will get this vitally important equipment to frontline medical and health care workers.

The ambulances are a practical, tangible way that Canadians, and in particular, Ukrainian Canadian community, can help a wartorn country.

“There has been a tremendous amount of time and effort put in by all of our volunteer committee representatives over the past 18 months to make this dream become a reality” states Dave Dutchak, MD Ambulance past President and CEO and founding member of Paramedic Chiefs of Canada. “We want to thank all of the Emergency Med-

Three ambulances from Saskatoon and one from Alberta are being donated to Ukraine under the Ambulances for Ukraine project ical Services and Crestline Coach that have agreed to donate Ambulances to this humanitarian project.

Without other key partners that include the Paramedic Chiefs of Canada, Saskatchewan Emergency Medical Services Association (SEMSA), the Government of Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan – Ukraine Relations Advisory Committee (SURAC), Ukrainian Canadian Congress (UCC), UCC Saskatchewan and EuroMaidan Canada this idea would have not come to fruition.”

Phase One of this project is already underway. Four ambulances, three from Saskatchewan and one from Alberta, have been donated.

They left the port of Halifax on August 11 and are due to arrive in Kyiv the week of August 24.

They will be then sent to hospitals treating the wounded from the conflict zone. These included Ambulances from Saskatoon, Parkland Ambulance in Prince Albert, Duck Mountain EMS, and Associated Ambulance Services in Edmonton.

Mennie Landscapes has quickly grown to be one of the province’s most popular and reliable landscaping companies.

But, Mennie Landscapes is much more than just planting shrubs and moving soil. The company also specializes in landscape design and construction. Starting this year, Mennie Landscapes has added maintenance (including lawn mowing, spring cleaning, aeration, power raking, custom planting plans, pruning, and snow removal) to their line of services offered. The company will also be offering more tailored yard services that will include planting bed revitalization, shrub pruning and tailored planting plans for existing and new planting beds “I suppose the most unique aspect of Mennie Landscapes is the specialization in designing and building playscapes,” says co-owner Les Mennie. “I was lucky enough to train with a landscape architect in Vancouver that had spent nearly 20 years working with the daycare industry to refine and improve playscape design.”

Celebrating their first anniversary this November, Warman Small Animal Hospital has quickly become the choice for people and their pets. From routine annual exams to vaccinations, emergency medicine and surgery, xrays, behavioural classes, exotic animal care, microchips, elective surgery, dental care, quality pet products and grooming, the facility is staffed by five highly trained professionals.

Owner Dr. Colette Neudorf grew up on the family farm in Manitoba and animal care has always been an important part of her life.

“I have a degree in Zoology and have been a veterinarian since 1999,” Dr. Neudorf explains. “I have a passion for what I do. I enjoy the day-to-day aspects of being a veterinarian but also enjoy working with rescue organizations, educators, wildlife organizations and law enforcement.”

Warman Small Animal Hospital aims to ensure that everyone has access to the quality of veterinary care that is affordable, “down to earth” and non-compromising when it comes to quality care.

“We are an approachable, understanding group of professionals who have your pet’s best interest in mind,” Dr. Neudorf adds.

AGCO enters into agreement to provide new technologies AGCO Corporation (NYSE:AGCO) has announced its latest investment and development in planting. AGCO entered into an agreement with Precision Planting®, an affiliate and business of The Climate Corporation, that introduces factory integration of select Precision Planting technology to AGCO’s White Planters™ line.

New options will soon be available to give customers

improved performance and the ability to utilize new and emerging technologies.

Continuing with AGCO’s Fuse® Technologies approach to open architecture, the agreement also enables farmers to integrate their on-farm data into The Climate Corporation’s digital agriculture platform. This data connection enhances farmers’ ability to seamlessly and easily collect data in one

place and gain personalized insights through digital tools to help them make more informed decisions about their operations.

“We work closely with growers, designers and partners to develop what farmers want and need in a planter,” says John Menssen, marketing manager for seeding and tillage at AGCO. “The addition of Precision Planting technology will give farmers new

options in today’s planting environment.”

AGCO will be announcing new options and models of its White Planters line in the coming months that will include technologies made available from Precision Planting.

“Our White Planters line is known for achieving great planting accuracy,” asserts Mr. Menssen.

‘Megatrends’ expected to move ag sector into future

By Phil Franz-Warkentin

CNS Canada – Healthconscious customers with money to spend will be looking to purchase more food over the next 20 years, while changing technologies and global economic uncertainty will bring their own challenges.

That’s the outlook in a recent report out of Australia, highlighting five megatrends expected to impact the agricultural sector in the coming decades.

Rural Industry Futures: Megatrends impacting Australian agriculture over the coming 20 years was compiled by the country’s Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation (RIRDC), together with the Commonwealth Scientif-

ic and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), in an effort to draw out the longer-term trends that could impact rural industries going forward.

While the report focuses on the Australian situation, the opportunities and challenges presented can be expected to have a similar impact on the Canadian agriculture sector.

A “megatrend” is defined in the report as “a trajectory of change that will have profound implications for industry and society.”

Each megatrend is interlinked with the others and has its own supply and demand side implications for the agricultural sector, according to the report.

The five megatrends in the report include:

1. A hungrier world: Global populations are rising while land devoted to agricultural production is shrinking. That will create increased demand for good and fibre from those countries with exportable supplies.

2. A wealthier world: Average annual incomes are also rising as more people are expected to move out of poverty, with diets shifting away from staple subsistence foods to higher-protein options. This creates opportunities for diversification and new markets.

3. Choosy customers: The desire for healthier food options is expected to grow, with expectations on ethical and environmental factors also becoming a larger factor in customer choices.

4. Transformative technologies: Advances in genetics, materials science, and digital technologies will alter how food is grown and how it is transported. In addition to production improvements, increased traceability and advances in food manufacturing are expected.

5. A bumpier ride: Climate change and the increasing globalization of the world economy have the potential to create new and deeper risks for farmers, according to the report.

– Franz-Warkentin writes for Commodity News Service Canada, a Winnipeg company specializing in grain and commodity market reporting

el of accuracy while giving farmers expanded access to the latest in top-performing technologies, practices and products.”

“Through this agreement, we’re pleased to provide farmers with two ways to improve operations,” said Mike Stern, president and chief operating officer at The Climate Corporation. “We’re making it easy for farmers to access the latest Precision Planting technology on AGCO planters to enhance planting performance, and we’re enabling them to seamlessly integrate onfarm data into their Cli-

mate accounts to help them make more informed decisions about their operations.”

“This development between AGCO and Precision Planting is one element of AGCO’s global strategy to bring innovative and open solutions to AGCO customers and dealers,” according to Eric Hansotia, AGCO’s senior vice president of Global Crop Cycle, Advanced Technology Solutions and Dealer Tech Support.

Other AGCO strategic alignments include Bayer, DuPont, BASF, Connected Farm and Slingshot.

Make ATV safety a priority for your child ATV safety is hardly child’s play. In fact, when it comes to the various dangers associated with off-roading, children are the most vulnerable demographic. Studies have shown that the average age of individuals who are treated at emergency departments in Canada for ATV-related injuries is 15 years, which is less than the legal driving age of conventional motor vehicles.

As part of the Saskatchewan All-Terrain Vehicle Association (SATVA) safety campaign Know Your Limits, General Manager John Meed stresses the importance of children following ATV safety practices. “Children have the highest amount of limitations when it comes to ATVs, because they do not possess the physical development to safely drive large ATVs or the cognitive ability to react to potentially dangerous situations – regardless of their size or maturity,� says Meed.

Before children begin ATVing, they should take a training course from one of the qualified instructors throughout Saskatchewan. This will teach them how to be safe while enjoying some offroading action. To put this

into perspective, Meed noted that to legally drive a conventional motor vehicle – such as a car or truck – individuals are required to be 16 years of age, complete an instructional course, pass a practical exam that tests driver competency and follow the enforced rules of the road. It only makes sense then that ATVers would take similar steps to ensure they are competent on the trail.

Meed explains that conventional motor vehicles also come with builtin protective measures such as seatbelts and air bags, which reduce the risk of injury and add to a driver’s sense of security. The same safety measures aren’t found on an ATV, even though a fullsize ATV weighs over 225 kg (500 pounds) and is capable of reaching highway speeds. Therefore, young adults who ATV without having taken a safety course or wearing the proper gear are putting themselves at risk. “You wouldn’t give your children the keys to your car if they have not received any driver training,� says Meed. “Allowing them to ATV under the same circumstances is just as reckless and can have lethal results.�

Once children receive the proper instruction, Meed says it’s time to select the proper vehicle. It is recommended that children ride “age appropriate� ATVs: vehicles with an engine size no greater than 70cc for children under 12 years of age; vehicles with an engine size no greater than 90cc for children under 16 years of age.

Beyond that, children must adhere to the strict policies every other ATVer follows: avoid taking passengers; wear protective gear (helmet, gloves, ankle boots, long pant, longsleeved shirt); don’t speed or attempt tricky manoeuvers; ride in appropriate settings; don’t drink and ride; carry a communications device and designate an emergency contact. “By simply using your head you can avoid a potentially dangerous situation,� says Meed. “Before ATVing, take time to honestly reflect and determine whether or not you have taken every precaution necessary. While ATVing, ensure you are driving in a safe manner.�

SATVA was formed in 2006 to unite ATV clubs and users into a single voice to promote the safe and responsible use of ATVs in Saskatchewan.

Technology making agriculture easier Are you finding there isn’t enough time to get it all done in a day? Technology today is making it easier and less stressful to multitask. Smartphones are changing the way farmers do business. You can now bring your office with you.

With your smartphone you now have visibility into the company’s finances, access to important documents, a more effective method of communication, and the ability to track many different parts of your operation.

There are many apps a farm manager may find useful. To name a few: online banking apps, apps that work in conjunction with Farm Credit Canada software, an app for livestock producers called CFXpro and farm at hand that allows you to track your production. These apps will allow the farmer to be more productive and efficient in the way they manage their operation.

Online banking has become more and more popular over the last several years and now most banks have smartphone

apps. The apps will allow you to pay bills, transfer between accounts, manage your payees and complete e-transfers. You no longer have to go into the bank to complete your daily transactions or wait to log on to a computer; you can complete these transactions on the go.

Farm Credit Canada has created smartphone apps that compliment some of their software programs. AgExpert Mobile works in tandem with AgExpert Analyst software. This app will allow you to take a picture of a receipt and record the transaction details. This handy app will help to minimize lost receipts. Also, transactions will be recorded in a timely manner, which will keep your financial statements current.

Livestock producers can access information to aid in the decision of marketing cattle from an app called CFXpro. The features of this app include break even calculators, price projections based on market info and access to futures market.

This app is available to iPhone and Blackberry users at no charge. Visit

your app store and search CFXpro to start using it today.

Farm at hand is an app that allows you to track many parts of your farming operation. You can create a detailed field list and log all your activities from seeding to harvest.

This allows you to keep up to date production records. You can also track your commodities from storage to contracts to deliveries. You can also create a detailed equipment list. The list would include serial numbers, parts log and maintenance log. Never be stuck without a part number or serial number. This app allows you to have information about your operation at your fingertips.

There is an app for almost anything. To find more agriculture apps visit your app store and search agriculture. There are apps for weed identification, monitoring equipment, grain storage tracking, mix tank calculators and many more.

You will be surprised by all the results.

Supporting the Advancement of Women in Agriculture

Advisory Group members announced by CAHRC The Canadian Agricultural Human Resource Council (CAHRC) is pleased to announce the formation of the advisory group for the Supporting the Advancement of Women in Agriculture project.

This project will examine and address critical barriers to advancement facing women in the industry. Based on these results, there will be a strategic program developed and implemented to support improved access to leadership opportunities and strengthened business success for women working in agriculture.

As the project moves forward, the advisory group will provide feedback around key lines of enquiry to ensure meaningful outcomes for the agricultural community. This includes identifying subject matter experts to participate in the research, development and validation activities. Members will also assist in guiding the progress of the project for the next two years and as findings come in will provide feedback on proposed research instruments, tool drafts, report drafts, and other project elements.

The advisory group is comprised of professional and entrepreneurial women and men in the agriculture industry with an interest in advancing women in leadership roles. Mem-

bers were drawn from senior management and executive positions in farm businesses, agricultural associations and agribusiness. They provide a balance of representation from across Canada as well as a cross-section of production areas, business focus and industry associations. The members include: • Heather Broughton, Agriculture and Food Council of Alberta, Agri-Food Management Excellence Inc. • Chantelle Donahue, Vice-President Corporate Affairs, Cargill Limited

• Dr. Annemieke Farenhorst, NSERC Chair for Women in Science and Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture and Food Sciences, University of Manitoba • Susan Fitzgerald, Fitzgerald & Co, Canadian AgriWomen Network • Rebecca Hannam, Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program, Rural Ontario Institute • Dr. Laura Halfyard, Sunrise and Connaigre Mussel Farms, Canadian Aquaculture Industry Association • Brenda Lammens, Agri-Food Management Insti-

Swath timing will require good crop scouting

By Kim Stonehouse, PAg This year there is a lot of variation in crop maturity not only from field to field but also within fields.

Some earlier seeded crops suffered from frost damage and while there was some reseeding, all crops suffered from dryer surface conditions. Either way the result was generally uneven germination causing growth stages and maturity to also be very uneven.

However, recent warm conditions have brought fields seeded weeks apart closer to the same maturity than we might expect.

This year producers will have to be more attentive to crop maturity for swathing. Good crop scouting will be required to determine when the majority of the crop is at the correct moisture content for cutting.

When swathing canola the optimum stage for cutting will be when the majority of the crop is between the 50 to 60 per cent seed colour change. Unfortunately, due to the variability in maturity, some of this crop may be past the ideal stage and some may be far too early. A compromise will have to be made to limit pod shatter which may be further complicated if a large number of acres need to be considered.

To assess the seed colour change in canola it is usually best to examine the main stems of at least five plants per site (more is better) at various locations in each field. Averaging the seed colour change over a number of locations will give a good indication of that field’s maturity.

Fall frost may play a role in swathing decisions this year as well. Some crops are still somewhat later this year and run the risk of being frozen before they can be swathed. If frost is predicted, canola can be

swathed at the 10 per cent seed colour change to reduce the green count. However, for this to be effective it must be completed several days in advance of the frost and crops that are too green may pay a severe yield penalty.

When swathing cereals, similar problems to canola may exist. When the majority of the crop reaches the ideal moisture content of 30 to 40 per cent, some of the crop will be too ripe and some will be too green. Producers will have to compromise between the different stages and closely watch crops that are more prone to shatter, such as barley.

Straight cutting cereals may also be more challenging this year due to the uneven maturity. In a lot of cases it will be all but impossible without desiccation or a pre-harvest glyphosate application. Note that glyphosate is not registered for preharvest applications in all crops, so check before spraying.

When considering preharvest glyphosate the product labels indicate that application must only be made when the grain in the majority of the field is below 30 per cent moisture content. At this point, the movement of sugars (and glyphosate) into the grain stops. If glyphosate is applied too early the grain will fill poorly, resulting in shrunken seed, and glyphosate residues in the grain will be higher than allowable levels.

Several visual cues indicate when grain is less than 30 per cent moisture content. Descriptions of these can be found in the Ministry of Agriculture’s 2014 Guide to Crop Protection.

Saskatchewan Hay Harvest Challenge The Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture, Central Testing Laboratories and Saskatchewan Peavey Mart locations are working together to promote the Saskatchewan Hay Harvest Challenge. The goal is to raise awareness of the importance of growing and harvesting good quality forage and the importance of feed testing.

Haying season approaches, and the challenge to put up good-quality hay with minimal field losses exists. Regardless of harvest management and weather conditions, the nutrient content of forage is highly variable. Matching the nutrients supplied by the for-

age with livestock nutrient requirements is only possible if the nutrient content of the forage is known.

Growing and harvesting good quality forage is the first step in meeting the nutritional requirements of livestock. To keep track of the quality of their forage, many livestock and forage producers keep a field record book.

The Saskatchewan Hay Harvest Challenge provides producers with a pocket-sized field book to record hay field conditions and harvest operations across their forage acres.

In taking the Hay Harvest Challenge, producers are encouraged to submit for-

age samples for feed testing. The field record book provides an entry form to fill in after the feed test analysis is returned. Not only is the field book for record-keeping, it is also full of forage production and harvest management information - great for a quick reference to oftenasked forage questions.

Prizes for the Saskatchewan Hay Harvest Challenge include four $250 vouchers for feed testing

analysis sponsored by Central Testing Laboratories and a $1,000 voucher for an in-store merchandise purchase from a Saskatchewan Peavey Mart location.

Winners will be randomly chosen from all entries received, so each feed test entered has the potential to be a winner.

Entry forms are found in the official field record book. All entries must be received by January 15, 2016.

Creep feeding: benefits to cows, calves and pastures

By Alicia Sopatyk, BSA, AAg

With untimely rains pasture quantity is looking poor in some regions.

Coupled with high feed and energy demands of lactating cows, producers are looking at alternatives to get their animals through the year.

Even though it is an added expense, creep feeding calves on pasture may help both the cows and pasture make it through the year while helping calves maintain normal gains.

A beef cow’s milk production peaks at about two months after calving, and then declines gradu-

ally. This creates a nutritional gap between what the calf requires for potential growth and what the calf can obtain from the dam’s milk and the available forage. Providing creep feed for calves can help them reach their genetic potential by optimizing calf weight gains and weaning weights on pasture. It can also help facilitate early weaning as they become accustomed to dry feed. To meet a growing calf’s requirements, the creep feed should be 65 to 70 per cent Total Digestible Nutrients (TDN) or energy and approximately 13 per cent protein, along with the appropriate vitamin and

mineral mix.

Calves also put a great deal of pressure on their dams; the demands of lactation, being re-bred and regaining lost condition can be a lot to handle.

Creep feeding calves puts less pressure on the cow, allowing her to gain some condition back before winter, as long as a nutritionally dense diet is provided. With less pressure on the dam, creep feed can also decrease the pressure on the pasture. For every pound of creep fed to a calf, half to one pound of forage is saved from grazing by the cow. The creepfeeder can also be used to “lead” the herd to use areas of the pasture they

might otherwise avoid, once the calves are accustomed to using it.

While it is an added expense, providing creep feed may be a way to im-

prove calf production, cow condition, and reduce grazing pressure this year. The type of creep feed provided will depend on the quality and quanti-

ty of forage available.

Do you know your risk tolerance?

By Cyril Laforge, P. Ag.

Daily farmers are faced with making many decisions about their farming operation. Farmers don’t always have accurate in-

formation available to them at the time of decision, nor can they predict with 100 per cent accuracy factors that can affect the decision. The uncertainty of the outcome is known as risk.

Risk exists in all aspects of the farming business.

Farmers will face production, marketing, financial, legal and human resources risks. Risk can be mitigated by having a risk management strategy. As part of your risk management strategy, you need to identify and understand the risks facing the operation. Next, determine your risk tolerance and the impact this has on your risk management strategy.

Risk tolerance is your willingness to avoid or accept risk. Everyone has a different attitude towards risk that will affect the decisions they make. Farm managers make better decisions when they recognize their attitudes towards risk and take them into account when choosing actions. There are three broad categories of risk tolerance – risk averse, risk neutral and risk taker.

Risk averse individuals are the most cautious risk takers. These individuals will avoid risk at the expense of an increased profit. A risk averse individual is more likely to

choose a risk avoidance strategy. They focus on avoiding loss at all costs to the point they miss out on some great opportunities. These individuals are likely willing to pay extra to have the security of knowing the risk has been removed or minimized.

Risk taker individuals thrive on risk. They are excited by the challenge and may seek out risky ventures as long as there is potential positive return. These individuals are willing to accept risk.

Risk neutral individuals recognize the degree of risk in a situation and will analyze a situation before accepting or avoiding the risk. These individuals realize you must take a chance to gain an increased profit.

Whatever your risk tolerance may be it is important to recognize it. The ability to recognize your attitude towards risk will help to make better decisions. To learn more about risk tolerance and managing risk, consider purchasing the Comprehensive Guide to Managing Risk in Agriculture from Farm Management Canada.

Elm tree pruning ban comes to an end

(306) 934-1546 www.fulllineag.com

Homeowners and landowners are encouraged to prune their elm trees again to help keep them healthy, as Saskatchewan’s annual ban on elm tree pruning ends August 31.

Pruning elm trees is prohibited from April 1 to August 31 each year to reduce the risk of Dutch elm disease (DED). Elm bark beetles that spread the disease are most active during this period, and fresh cuts can attract them to healthy trees and put the trees at risk.

Regular pruning, when permitted, helps keep elm trees healthy and better able to resist all types of disease, including DED. Removing dead branches makes trees less attractive to elm bark beetles, which live and breed in dead wood. Early fall can be a great time for tree maintenance; the weather is generally more pleasant and predictable than in early spring and, with leaves still on the trees, it’s easier to

spot and remove the dead or unhealthy branches.

Correct pruning is important, whether you hire someone or do it yourself.

Improper pruning techniques can spread DED and other tree diseases. Under provincial regulations, all commercial pruners of elm trees must complete a recognized training program or be supervised by someone who has.

Transporting or storing elm firewood can spread DED and is illegal. All elm wood should be disposed of promptly by burning or burying it in a location approved by the local municipality.

For more information on proper elm disposal, check with your local municipal authority.

Mustard prices Consider tall stubble this harvest high heading into harvest

By Jade Markus CNS Canada – The mustard market has been moving steadily higher in recent months, reacting to projections for reduced yield from Statistics Canada, which could spur selling straight out of harvest, one buyer says.

Mustard prices gained throughout July and August, said Walter Dyck, a buyer for Olds Products.

That’s largely due to estimates from Statistics Canada, he added.

As of August 21, the most recent Canada-wide projection for 2015 is 109,400 tonnes, compared to 198,500 the year prior.

Prices on the spot market for delivered elevator mustard are between 43 and 45 cents per pound for yellow, 30.5 to 32 cents per pound for brown, and 34 to 36 cents per pound for oriental, according to Prairie Ag Hotwire.

“Now as we get closer to some new crop, with harvest going on at the moment, prices might come down a little bit,” Dyck said.

Future prices will depend on whether growers plan on storing mustard,

or selling it straight out of harvest, he said.

“If they need some cash flow for their farm they’ll start to move the mustard, and there will be very good demand.”

Outside of Canadian markets, Europe has the potential to keep a bearish lid on prices, Dyck said.

There is demand from Europe for Canada’s 2015 crop, he said, but only for brown mustard.

Since eastern European yellow mustard production is good this year, prices will likely not move much higher.

As for crop potential, Dyck said, despite frost, drought, and high heat, rain in July managed to salvage most crops.

“I think it should turn out a pretty good yield given those early setbacks.”

He pegged the average yield for yellow mustard to be near 700 lbs. per acre, and said oriental could be as high as 750 to 800 lbs. an acre.

With many shorter crops this year and the need for moisture to recharge the subsoil in some areas, there may be a benefit to cutting the stubble high to catch additional snow and reduce evaporation during the next growing season.

The El Nino developing is one of the strongest in recent history and for the prairie region this may mean a warmer and drier fall and winter. Climatologists are saying that the effects of this El Nino are a bit unpredictable but if the soil is not fully recharged, cutting taller stubble might be our best

chance to manage this harvest to our advantage for the next growing season.

If producers have access to stripper headers or airreels, harvesting taller stubble should be easier. However, with straight cut headers the height of the stubble can be cut a little taller than normal, to a point just before header losses start to occur.

Many of the crops are shorter this year so the focus is on cutting the stubble as tall as practical. The straw and chaff need to be fine-chopped and uniformly spread to make seeding into tall stubble easy and to avoid plug-

ging.

When the subsoil is not fully recharged with moisture and there is limited spring rains, leaving tall stubble can result in increased yields. A summary of recent research showed there was a definite yield advantage to tall stubble because it collected more snow and reduced surface evaporation during dry periods resulting in higher yields. A new observation from the 2014 published findings showed that if tall stubble was flattened or lodged, for whatever reason, the yield benefit was not there. It is important to min-

imize the amount of driving on fields where tall stubble technology is implemented and even consider seeding between the rows of the previous crop stubble to keep as much of the stubble standing. In a year when the subsoil is fully recharged with moisture from fall rains and spring snowmelt or spring rains, there is little or no benefit to tall stubble until there is a hot dry period during the growing season. Under this condition the taller stubble reduces evapotranspiration from the crop conserving the moisture for additional yield.

Gene editing: a new technology for crop development Shawn Gibson, PhD, PAg

Most people have heard the term “GMO” or genetically modified organism, but many don’t understand the biotechnology used to introduce genetic material from one organism into another.

Most GM canola that has herbicide resistance was developed using a technique called transgenics, meaning that the DNA used to introduce resistance came from a different species than the recipient organism.

This technology, which is now in common use, is safe and transfers one to three genes that impart traits of interest into an economically valuable plant.

For example, glyphosateresistant canola contains two bacterial genes that enable plants to tolerate and degrade glyphosate. GMO crops paired with hybrid technology have increased crop yields, reduced yield losses due to weed pressure and reduced the environmental impact of agricultural production. However developing GMO plants us-

ing transgenic biotechnology is costly—it can cost up to $136 million to develop and bring a new transgenic crop to the market.

This may change with the development of new technology, the most promising of which uses cisgenics, also called gene editing, and does not involve insertion of genetic material from another organism. A plant’s genome can be “edited” to remove an undesirable gene—for example one involved in crop lodging—or it can be used to change conditions under

which a gene becomes active, perhaps increasing activity of a gene involved in environmental stress to reduce losses from late frosts.

Gene editing technology is very promising as it uses the plant’s own biological mechanisms to change only specific genes in the plant’s genome—no genetic material from other organisms is required. Scientists have now used this technology in the laboratory to develop plants resistant to powdery mildew. Gene editing could mean: 1) more rapid turnover of new plant

Watch for wheat and canola diseases from the combine Faye Dokken-Bouchard, PAg

Although harvest time is too late to control plant diseases, a bird’s-eye view from the combine or swather can be a practical way to spot diseases late in the season and make a record. While most of the season was dry and not conducive to disease, patches of rain around the province in late summer may be enough to facilitate infection in some crops. In cases where fungicide was applied earlier in the season, scouting at harvest can help determine the effectiveness of disease control.

Watch for patches that appear different from the rest of the field. If a disease has affected a plant substantial-

ly, it will likely be a different size or colour than the rest of the crop due to limited water and nutrient uptake. Also look for the formation of lesions (yellow or brown spots on the plant) or fungal structures (black bodies found with ergot or sclerotinia). Areas that are yielding less for no apparent reason are also worth investigating.

Infection of diseases like fusarium head blight (FHB) and ergot takes place during flowering but does not become visible until harvest.

FHB bleaches wheat glumes and damages wheat kernels, which may cause downgrading at the elevator. Ergot may be noticed when unloading the grain truck,

as black fungal structures slightly larger than the kernels.

Discoloured plants or patches of canola should be investigated to determine whether the cause is sclerotinia white mould, blackleg, fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt or clubroot. Sclerotinia infection can cause lesions and stems may become bleached and shred easily when twisted, exposing black sclerotia bodies inside infected stems. The best way to identify blackleg is to cut the stem base with pruning clippers to look for black discolouration. Fusarium wilt and verticillium wilt may both produce yellowing on one side of the plant; however, only fusar-

ium wilt actually causes wilting and only verticillium wilt produces black microsclerotia on plant tissues. Clubroot may appear like other diseases aboveground with wilting, stunting, yellowing and premature ripening; but pull plants and check roots for galls.

Regardless of when crops are scouted, accurate disease records can be used to plan disease management strategies for next season.

Make the most of a fall herbicide application

By Clark Brenzil, PAg

Applying herbicide in the fall is a good way to manage perennial and winter annual weeds, but cold weather can interfere with the activity of many systemic herbicides, including glyphosate.

Herbicides rely on an actively growing plant to be effective. If the plant is not actively growing when a herbicide is applied, the herbicide may be inactivated within the plant before it has a chance to move to the target sites where it will have the best effect. If a plant has stopped growing due to cold weather, it should be allowed to recover for up to 48 hours, under good growing conditions, be-

fore herbicides are applied.

Even though they are very cold-tolerant, winter annual weeds are still not actively growing when temperatures are low. As a result, producers applying herbicides to winter annual weeds need to follow the same delay guidelines as other weeds.

Frost may affect the integrity of weed tissues as well. Perennial weeds can be damaged by a two- to three-degree frost if conditions just prior have been warm and lush. If a perennial weed has experienced a gradual decline in daily temperatures, it may tolerate progressively harder frosts as temperatures drop.

In some cases, perennial weeds can tolerate -10 to -15

C if conditioned properly.

Producers can determine a perennial weed’s susceptibility to herbicide by looking at the leaf tissue. If the leaf tissues are green and pliable, they will be receptive to glyphosate. If they are deep green and brittle, they have experienced too much cold temperature damage and will not allow the penetration and translocation of the herbicide.

If, after a hard frost, weed leaves are dark green with a water-soaked appearance, the affected leaf tissue will eventually die, making it a poor target for glyphosate uptake. Producers should wait a few days after a frost to see what leaf tissue remains viable before apply-

ing glyphosate.

Monsanto recommends that greater than 60 per cent of the original leaf tissue should remain after a frost to achieve adequate control of perennial weeds with a fall glyphosate treatment. If leaf damage is greater than 40 per cent of what was present, herbicide efficacy will suffer and producers should wait for new growth before making an application.

Three-dimensional fencing protects your feed, bottom line

By Alicia Sopatyk, BSA, AAg Every year, elk, deer, and other wild animals destroy approximately $400,000-worth of stacked forage, according to Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation (SCIC).

That can be devastating, especially in a year of tight forage supplies. Strong fences can keep wildlife at bay, and a new fencing technique—three-dimensional (3D) fencing—can make feed supplies even more secure.

Deer and elk have poor depth perception due to their wide-set eyes. 3D fencing works with this disadvantage using off-set wires to create the appearance of a visual barrier. The basic design features two fences, three feet apart. The interior fence consists of four or five strands of electrified wire and the exterior fence is one strand of electrified wire, at least 34 inches off the ground. Simple wire gates can also be used for easy access during the winter feeding period. By having the fence electrified, there is a reinforcing message to leave the area alone.
