Martensville business gets nod for top-rated Mennonite Farmers Sausage By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Martensville’s Smokehaus Meats walked away with top honours for best overall Mennonite Farmers Sausage at Osler’s first annual “Lord of the (Sausage) Rings” festival on November 5. Smokehaus Meats owner Trent Ens was all smiles as he was presented with the hardware by Osler Mayor Ben Buhler. Ens’ establishment was also named top pick for Best Texture and Best Taste. Riverside Meats’ entry was given Best Appearance honours by the crowd at the sold-out festival held at Osler’s Community Hall. The festival was organized by the Osler Recreation Committee with the aim of raising funds to pave the local community outdoor rink and make it a year-round facility, said Buhler. The Osler Mayor said he stole (or “borrowed”) the idea from Saskatoon’s annual “King of Kovbasa” Festival, noting that the region north of Saskatoon is famed for having the best traditional Mennonite Farmers Sausage in Canada. “Why not highlight that tradition and take pride in our local products?” said Buhler. A total of nine firms were part of the competition, which involved blind taste judging by the 200 attendees as well as media representatives and the Mayors of Rosthern, Hague, Warman and Saskatoon. The firms included Carmen Corner Meats of Waldheim, Country Choice Meats of Duck Lake, Ideal Meats of

The little-known true story of how traditional Mennonite Farmers Sausage was made on the farm in the mid-1970s was revealed by Jake Buhler, president of the Mennonite Historical Society of Saskatchewan. Several attendees noted the timing of the presentation, done following dinner and not before, was appropriate. The fundraising total, which included donations and the proceeds from a live auction, was still being tal-
lied by Osler town officials as of the Gazette press deadline. They did note that it was
a “huge success” and plans are already being laid for the second annual festival next fall.

lights and security systems for added protection. Eyre said there were also a number of serious vandalism incidents. “The most recent was
when a lot of windows were smashed. It started in Osler and then the culprits moved through Warman and then over to Martensville. That was all in one night.”

Tragedy avoided as pilot lands alongside busy highway at Martensville By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca When the engine on his small Cessna aircraft suddenly died shortly after takeoff, pilot Daniel Cotton had almost no time to react. The plane was only about 100 feet off the ground, but it was headed due east; straight into a heavily-populated area in the City of Martensville. In between his plane and the city directly in his path was Highway 12, one of the busiest highways in the region; filled with heavy commuter traffic at one of the busiest times of the day. But Cotton’s reaction saved not only his own life, but potentially many others as well. He was able to set the plane down at the edge of a field where its momentum carried it through a low fence and eventually to a stop in the bottom of a muddy ditch; just a few meters away from the southbound lanes of Highway 12 at Martensville. “It could have been a lot worse,” said Martensville Deputy Fire Chief Dean Brooman as emergency responders converged on the scene around 5 o’clock on Friday, November 6. “I think the pilot did an amazing job when you consider what potentially could have happened.” Cotton, a Vancouver resident currently studying at Saskatchewan Polytechnic (SIAST) in Saskatoon, was not injured in the incident, but his plane showed some minor damage. No people on the ground were injured. Cotton said his takeoff from the small airfield directly west of Martensville not far from Highway 12 was fine, but a few seconds after he became airborne,
the engine suddenly lost all power. “It all happened so fast,” said Cotton in an interview at the scene. “It just cut out. The prop was still spinning but there was no power. It was probably only in the air for less than ten seconds. “I didn’t have enough altitude or air speed to turn around and land back again so I just put it down in the best place I could see. ‘There might have been better spots to land, but I only had about two seconds to react, and I did my best. “I didn’t want to land straight at the hotel that was in front of me, or on the highway where I might hit some cars. I also wanted to avoid these power lines because they’ll just cut you right in half if you hit them. So I did my best to kind of turn the plane and did manage to land in the field. “I tried to turn once I was on the ground but planes don’t turn as well as cars do on the ground and it hit the fence and then rolled into the ditch. “The actual landing was just fine, and if it hadn’t hit the fence you would never know there was anything wrong with the plane.” Cotton said during training for his pilot’s license, he had practiced having the engine cut out at several thousand feet, but with the plane so close to the ground it made it much more difficult to land. “I was running out of room, so instead of coming onto the highway I tried to turn sharp,” he said. “I’m glad nobody got hurt.” Constable Polisky of the Warman RCMP detachment said the pilot’s actions were commendable. “I don’t know much about

The pilot of this single-engine Cessna aircraft made an emergency landing and ended up coming to rest in the ditch alongside Highway 12 at Martensville on Friday, November 6 airplanes, but he managed to get the plane landed safely in a very tight area with a lot of cars and a lot of peo-
ple,” said Polisky. The investigation into the crash was conducted by the Warman RCMP detachment.
Transport Safety Board officials were notified of the incident, but did not send anyone to investigate because it
was considered minor and there were no injuries. The plane was left in the ditch overnight.
Hanley School lockdown lifted in wake of robbery By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A lockdown at the Hanley Composite School that was imposed following an armed robbery in that community on Friday, November 6 was lifted later that afternoon. Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) Director of Education John Kuzbik confirmed that the “hold and secure” mode order that was imposed at about 11:30 a.m. by the Saskatoon RCMP in cooperation with the school and PSSD, was lifted at about 2:30 p.m. During a “hold and secure” lockdown the exterior doors to the school are locked and monitored while classes continue. Parents and community members were asked not to attend the school during the lockdown period. RCMP continue to inves-
tigate the armed robbery at the Hanley Hotel which occurred at about 11:18 the morning of Friday, November 6. Kuzbik said the “hold and secure” lockdown was a “precautionary measure” taken by the RCMP to let the schools know there had been an armed robbery, and that the whereabouts of the individual responsible for the robbery was not known. Kuzbik said the measure was taken “to be on the safe side” and that there was no imminent threat to the school. “It was simply to make them aware that the incident had happened, and heighten the awareness of what was going on,” said Kuzbik in an interview on Friday, November 6. “It was designed to make the school inaccessible in case that in-
dividual happened to be in the area.” Kuzbik said the measure was part of the normal risk assessment protocol that PSSD shares with the Saskatoon Public School Division and Greater Saskatoon Catholic School Division. “Our staff are provided with many different opportunities for professional growth and development in this area by leading experts in the country,” said Kuzbik. “These experts conduct workshops with school division staff and administration on a regular basis. “When this protocol is implemented during an incident like this, the police contact the principal and keep him updated, and the principal then is in regular contact with the school division office.”
Kuzbik said the police issued the notice to lift the lockdown in mid-afternoon when they determined that there was no further risk to the school. “It’s a happy ending in this instance,” said Kuzbik. “But there is always a little pressure in these situations. We want to ensure we do things right because you never know where it can go. We take all the precautionary measures we can. It’s not something that happens every day.” RCMP spokesperson Craig Cleary said the police are still investigating the armed robbery that occurred at the Hanley Hotel at 11:18 a.m. on Friday, November 6. “We are still following all leads and asking the public for any information they may have in relation to the matter,” said Cleary.

WWII Veteran gives students a first-hand account of history By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Jim McCulloch was in the second wave of soldiers that stormed the beaches of Normandy, France, on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The 21-year-old farm boy from Landis, Saskatchewan had joined the Canadian army at a recruiting station in Biggar when he was 18 years old. After basic training in Prince Albert he was shipped overseas to England with the Regina Rifles. After endless weeks and months of training, he and his comrades boarded ships to take them across the English Channel. They were about to get their first taste of battle. “Scared? Yeah, we were all pretty scared,” said McCulloch, 92. “Who wouldn’t be?” The morning of the landing was foggy, rainy and miserable, recalled McCulloch in a video clip from The Canadian Legion’s Memory Project recorded recently and posted online. “We were in the second wave to hit the beach. We waded into the water off the landing craft to get to the beach and it was awful to see the bodies floating around. “I wished I was back home working in the barn, I’ll tell you. It was pretty awful. It was frightening to hear the bombs dropping. They called them ‘Moaning Minnies’ and they make a noise when they come in, but you don’t know where they’re going to land. I saw a bomb blow the head off a friend of mine. He was from Landis too. All that was left of him was his tags.” But the most gripping memory for McCulloch came a few days after the D-Day landing, when he and several other soldiers were taken by surprise when German Panzer tanks began firing at them in an oat field several miles inland from the beach. “We got ambushed by German SS troops,” said McCulloch in an interview during a visit to his great-grandchildren’s classes at Valley Manor School in Martensville on Wednesday, November 4. “The sergeant said, ‘Bail out. Every man for himself.’ The sergeant got shot and so did a lot of other guys. Some were taken prisoner. I lay still and played dead. A German soldier came right up to me and pointed his gun at me. I thought that was the end. I thought I was a goner. But he just left me alone and went away. I laid there all night long.
“In the morning we stood up and looked around and there were three tanks coming up the road. We thought they were Germans so we held up our hands to surrender. “Turned out they were British tanks. The one guy opened up the top of the tank and said: ‘Hey mate, come in for a spot of tea. You look like you’ve had a rough night.’ “We needed a lot more than tea, I’ll tell you.” McCulloch fought his way through Europe for 11 months after D-Day. He was wounded in his leg five days before the war ended in 1945. He spent time in hospitals in Belgium and England before returning home, where he found work on a neighbour’s farm and eventually with the provincial Department of Highways. The retired veteran has been a member of the Canadian Legion branch in Rosetown for 72 years, and proudly wears his Legion medals alongside those earned for active service during the war. Among the most cherished of his medals is one given to him by the Government of France for his role in the DDay invasion. McCulloch said it took many years to deal with the nightmares from the war, and even now they return as vividly as ever on occasion. But his constant grin and one-liners tell a lot about how he coped with the horrors of war. “I’ve always been kind of a happy-go-lucky guy,” he said. “I thought a lot about home when I was over there, and that helped me get through it. I also figured that either I was going to get it or not, and I just kept on fighting no matter what. We never gave up.” But while he’s modest about his own service during the war, the soft-spoken veteran wants the younger generation to take pride in Canada’s role in fighting against a totalitarian dictator. “This is the guy who started the war,” explained McCulloch to a class of Grade 3 students at the school, while holding a picture of Adolph Hitler. “He killed a lot of people. Canada did the right thing taking a stand against him.” McCulloch was introduced to two classes by his great-grandchildren: twins Ava and Keira Cross in their Grade 3 class; and Kylie Cross in her Grade 6 class. The girls are daughters of Martensville firefighter Captain Ryan Cross and his wife Karen. McCulloch laid a wreath during the school’s Remembrance Day service later that morning, alongside Canadian Forces Warrant Officer Maurice Boire, who spoke to the kids about the meaning of poppies as a symbol of remembrance.

Warman High School Remembrance Day service focuses on World War I By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The history of the ‘Great War’, as World War I was originally called, is often summed up in a few paragraphs in school textbooks. But many people overlook the fact that it went on for many years and literally tore nations apart, engulfing millions of people in untold misery, notes Matt Linner, a history teacher at Warman High School (WHS). “It started in 1914 and ended in 1918,” said Linner. “It raged for the better part of five years, but it must have seemed like a hundred years to people at the time.” Linner and a group of staff and students at WHS are working to give their contemporaries an idea of just how long that war went on by marking the hundredth anniversary of each year at successive Remembrance Day services at WHS. Last year, the service focused on 1914 and the origins and early days of the war. This year the emphasis is on 1915: the year when the horrors

Warman High School student Shara Becker introduces a slide show on the 100th anniversary of the year 1915 as part of an ongoing series on the First World War
of mechanized bloodshed, trench warfare and gas attacks were front and centre. The WHS Remembrance Day service on Thursday, November 5 featured a welledited series of slides narrated by senior students telling the chronology of the war during that fateful year. The students also showed how the war affected people on the home front when women filled the vacancies on farms, factories and shops; and how that led to women earning the right to vote on an equal basis with men. “It’s a history lesson as much as a Remembrance Day service,” said Linner. “We try to make it an educational experience. A lot of kids don’t know what happened during those years, and when you present it to them this way, I think it makes an impact.” Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) Board of Education Chair Larry Pavloff said he found the service moving and informative. “It’s nice to be at a Remembrance Day service at
a school and have it be such a riveting experience,” Pavloff said. “The kids were engrossed in what they saw and I think they learned a lot. They have set up a cul-
ture in this school, where year by year they are enhancing the students’ learning and understanding of a very important period in our history.”
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome focus of campaign By CHARLENE TEBBUTT ctebbutt@yahoo.com The unexpected death of a child and a family’s pain has started one man on a quest to raise awareness about an unexplained killer. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, or SIDS as it is commonly known, kills three babies in Canada each week, according to Baby’s Breath, formerly the Canadian Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths. It occurs most often in babies between the ages of two and four months, although it is known to happen in babies who are near, or have reached their first birthday. Young Nathan Inglehart was just past his first birthday when he died unexpectedly on June 13, 2014. He had turned one on May 23. Nathan’s death could not be explained. His family was devastated. “He was a very happy, giggly, smiley boy who was taken way too early,” Rob Trainor says of his nephew. “He was the sweetest, hap-
piest boy I had ever met. This child looked like he had a very bright future ahead of him.” Now, a year and a half later, Nathan’s uncle, Rob Trainor is at the start of a journey to increase awareness about Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and raise money for research into the condition. “Of course, it plunges everyone into grief and you’re left searching for answers,” Trainor says as he describes the day he got a phone call informing him of young Nathan’s death. “I saw how much it affected my sister and I wanted to do something huge to remember her little boy.” Trainor says SIDS was a condition he knew little about before Nathan’s death. One by one, he has been contacting various municipalities around the world asking them to recognize SIDS awareness day and take up the pledge to find a cure for SIDS. This year, May 23 – the

Nathan Inglehart passed away from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome date of Nathan Inglehart’s birthday – was declared SIDS Awareness and Memorial Day in Saskatchewan. Trainor has also been able to persuade the province of British Columbia, and some U.S. states and various other municipalities to recognize SIDS Awareness and Memorial Day on May 23. October is also SIDS
Awareness month in Canada. Trainor said he’s trying to get as many people as possible to think about supporting SIDS research and prevention. “I’ve gotten people to think about this,” Trainor adds. “I want to make sure no family ever has to go through this again.” Nathan’s father, Colton Inglehart, has also been working to raise funds in support of SIDS research. He organized a snowmobile rally in memory of his son. The second-annual SIDS Awareness Snowmobile Rally runs January 16, 2016, beginning at the Brian King Centre in Warman. Trainor hopes an answer will one day be found for the cause of SIDS. “There’s nothing you could have done differently,” he added. “But the human mind needs an answer.”

Provincial economy still tops, but for how long?
COMMENTARY
By TODD MACKAY Prairie Director, Canadian Taxpayers Federation Saskatchewan is still at the top of the economic class, but there are signs its grades may slip. Two bond rating agencies recently issued report cards for Saskatchewan’s finances and they weren’t anything to write home about. Bond rating agencies provide credit ratings for governments that are similar to credit scores for individuals. When individuals rack up too much debt, their credit score takes a hit and lenders will increase interest rates on new loans. It’s the same for governments – those that borrow too much see their credit ratings downgraded and their interest rates go up. Saskatchewan got a AAA rating from bond rating agency Standard and Poor’s (tied for tops with Alberta and B.C.), but the agency said that may change for the worse in its release on Oct. 8. “We are revising the outlook on the Province of Saskatchewan to negative from stable, reflecting our expectations that Saskatchewan’s budgetary performance could weaken in the next two years as a result of the deterioration in oil prices,” said Standard and Poor’s in its release. “The affirmation [of the AAA rating] reflects our view of the province’s strong exceptional liquidity, very low tax-supported debt burden, and very strong economy.” “[Saskatchewan’s] after-capital deficit widened to about 4.5 per cent of adjusted operating revenues in fiscal 2015,” said Standard and Poor’s. It went on to project a rating downgrade if oil prices continue to slump or that 4.5 per cent rises to 5 per cent. “[Saskatchewan’s] sound fiscal management, low debt burden and resilient economy support the strong credit profile,” said DBRS. DBRS also noted that the Saskatchewan government announced a budget surplus of $107 million, but after DBRS included all costs, including pension liabilities and capital costs, it found something different. “On a DBRS-adjusted basis this translates to a deficit of $1.6 billion,” said DBRS. It went on to project that Saskatchewan’s debt will rise from 14.9 per cent of GDP to 19 per cent by 2018-19. The Saskatchewan government acknowledged the need for spending cuts when it announced an operating deficit of $292 million. However, the government is still going ahead with more than $700 million in borrowing to fund infrastructure projects this year. Saskatchewan is spending more per capita than Manitoba and the Saskatchewan Party government is spending more than the previous NDP government even after accounting for inflation and population growth. Even more concerning, the Saskatchewan budget makes it clear the government plans to continue borrowing for the foreseeable future. Next year the province is projecting a surplus of $121 million after putting $100 million into the contingency fund. But that changes when the capital spending is included. Even if the surplus and savings are used, the province plans to spend $764 million more than it has in projected revenues. The last Sask. Party election platform included a commitment to: “reduce debt and balance the budget.” It seems that commitment won’t be part of the next platform. The report cards are clear. Yes, we’re doing better than other provinces, but that’s partly because they’re running massive deficits compared to our more modest borrowing. And yes, our economy is strong, but it took hard work to build this strength and increasing debt will take us backward. It’s time to take a hard look at the books and cut spending.

Pipelines come from all directions For all the fuss and bother about that pipeline moving oil north to south mostly through a foreign nation, it’s the pipeline moving from west to east that we should be most interested in. The Keystone XL pipeline that would have taken Alberta oilsands oil (and some from Saskatchewan) to the refineries of U.S. gulf area has clearly been an environmental lightning rod in both U.S. and Canadian politics. Last week, the pipeline builder TransCanada Corp. asked the U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry, to pause the review of the massive project until there is resolution of litigation in Nebraska over the pipeline route. Naturally, this drew more teeth gnashing from prooil Western Canadian politicians like Premier Brad Wall who was quick to note that the move will impact Saskatchewan “from a fiscal standpoint.” The issue at hand is that the pipeline will take oil from landlocked Alberta and Saskatchewan to tidewater. As it stands now, the only option for Saskatchewan is selling our oil at the West Test Intermediate (WTI)

price that those in the oil patch will know all too well has been all too low these past two years. Getting Saskatchewan oil directly to sea so Saskatchewan oil can be sold at the British-based Brent price – which happens to $2 to $3 a barrel higher than the WTI price; is especially important at today’s lower prices of $45 to $50 U.S. a barrel. It amounts to a four- to eight-per-cent price differential; $40- to $50-million more a year. That may not seem all that significant; at least not as significant as a market-driven increase in price would be. But as Wall points out, it’s still very significant because having to sell at a lower price deprives oil companies the chance to create the capital to reinvest. Of course, Wall is still optimistic Keystone will one go ahead one day and is buoyed by the fact that Keystone has always received the full support of new Lib-

eral Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. “We should be about getting more customers for our oil,” Wall said. “Right now we have one; that’s the United States. But just one foreign customer. We need more customers, and that’s what these pipelines will achieve.” But in that regard Wall is likely better serving Saskatchewan residents, rural Saskatchewan residents and all Canadians, for that matter, by switching some of his focus to Energy East where Canadians do have more direct say. For starters, let us be clear that this was a decision by TransCanada that may very well have been a political move as much as financial one. If TransCanada sees it necessary to change gears for whatever reason, it’s just as important for Wall to adjust as well. And the Saskatchewan Premier showed an ability to do just that late last month. Gallant was meeting with Western Premiers and Chambers of Commerce to make his case for why Energy East is good for the New
Brunswick economy. “We’re talking about an increase of $1.5 billion to our (gross domestic product) and an increase of $300 million to the revenues of the government of New Brunswick that we can then invest in education, health care and helping those who are vulnerable in our province,” the young, Liberal New Brunswick Premier told Saskatchewan reporters. This buttresses nicely with the Wall/Saskatchewan need to get our oil at tidewater. To have an Eastern Premier onside is important. Coming together for perhaps different reasons on a common cause is how politics should work. But the value of this allCanadian Energy East project goes beyond the economic benefits for both provinces. We are also talking about here an issue of unity and economic security in which Atlantic provinces would no longer have to be as reliant on unstable middle east oil. In this sense, this makes the east-west pipeline perhaps even more important than a north-south one.

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.

Warman Wolverines’ Brandon Mckimmon goes airborne to stop Humboldt Mohawks punt returner Tanner Gerwing during the provincial 3A semi-final game in Humboldt
Wolverines earn trip to provincial championship Warman squad continues undefeated streak, gears up for rematch against Melfort By WAYNE SHIELS essenceofsask@gmail.com The Warman Wolverines cruised to some easy victories over the course of their undefeated season. But the provincial semifinal game last Saturday in Humboldt wasn’t one of them. The Wolverines prevailed 42-22 over the Humboldt Mohawks on November 7 in their toughest test so far this year. Warman head coach Tyler Scheidt was pleased with how his team responded to the challenge. “It was a fun, fun game,” said Scheidt.”It was really nice to have to battle for a win. “We know we can battle hard for four quarters,
which is something we hoped to have an opportunity to do.” The game began as a tight defensive battle, with the only scoring in the first quarter being a single on a punt by Humboldt kicker Jared Giddings. Warman’s first opportunity to score came in the second quarter when defensive lineman Josh Barker forced a fumble that was recovered by Jayson Lindo deep in Mohawk territory. Warman quarterback Dominic Froese hit receiver Nick Fehr at the two yard line. On the next play Warman appeared to have scored when Jaden Towson took a direct snap and broke the plane of the goal line. But Warman was assessed a
penalty for pushing the ball carrier. Undeterred, Froese hit receiver Nick Fehr in the back of the end zone on the next play. The convert attempt was wide, giving Warman a 6-1 lead. Humboldt appeared to have seized momentum when Jared Giddings, their Mr. Everything, picked off a Warman pass and ran 52 yards for a touchdown with less than three minutes to play in the half. But whatever momentum the Mohawks had was lost when they attempted a short kickoff. The Wolverines’ Joel Seiferling fielded the ball cleanly and broke through Humboldt’s defenders to race untouched into the end zone. This was the catalyst
for one of Warman’s best three minutes of the year as they were able to score two additional touchdowns on runs by Damien Delnea and Jaden Towson before halftime. They increased their lead to 28-8 early in the third quarter on a single point on a wide field goal attempt. But the host team was not finished and would dominate most of the third quarter, bringing the score to 28-22 on passing TDs to Jared Giddings and Tanner Gerwing and a single on a missed field goal. On this day Warman would not be denied as special teams forced a crucial turnover. Wolverines special teams players Brandon McKimmon and Braeden
Wiebe teamed up to knock the ball out of punt returner Tanner Gerwing’s grasp. Wiebe recovered the ball to give the Wolverines a first and goal. Jaden Towson took the snap, and with a great fake to running back Damien Delnea, was able to get outside and dive over the end zone pylon for a TD with 2:59 left in the game. The defence came up big, stopping the Mohawks on a third down gamble on Humboldt’s forty yardline. Warman capitalized as Damien Delnea ran for a TD to make the final score 4222. Coach Scheidt said his team won the war of attrition by wearing down the opposition. Humboldt has

some very good football players that played both ways, said Scheidt “It’s a testament to how hard our kids worked in the off-season,” said Scheidt. “We have some big strong kids. You battle and battle against those guys for sixty, it is tough on a team. “I think the kids deserve credit for that. How hard they worked pays off on a day like today.” The win means a return to the 3A nine-man provincial championship game, setting up a rematch of last year’s final against the Melfort Comets. The Comets won last year’s contest, and the Wolverines are looking to avenge that on Saturday, November 14. Game time in Melfort is 1:00 p.m.

Rebels edge Cougars, advance to provincial 2A final in Shaunavon By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Delisle Rebels are headed to the provincial 2A nine-man high school football final next Saturday in Shaunavon. The Rebels punched their ticket to the big game by edging the host Clavet Cougars 35-33 in semi-final action last Saturday. “It feels good,” said Rebels quarterback James Shirley in an interview after the game. “We worked pretty hard all week, and last night we had a four-hour practice to make sure we were prepared. We all woke up this morning feeling pretty confident and ready to go.” Delisle took the lead in the first quarter after touchdowns by receiver Reid Dubkowski and quarterback James Shirley. When Delisle running back Sam Michnik added another major late in the second quarter to make it 21-0, it looked like the Rebels had things well in hand. But on the ensuing kickoff, Clavet’s Ethan Parker fielded the ball on his own 20 yard line and returned it for a touchdown, making it 21-7 at the half. Early in the fourth quarter, Delisle’s Dubkowski added another touchdown on a two-yard pass and run play to put the Rebels up 29-7. But the Cougars offense, which had been sputtering through three quarters thanks to a determined and relentless Rebels defense, suddenly woke up. Ethan Parker gave the Cougars their second touchdown of the game when he once again scored on a kickoff return. Two minutes later, Parker found the end zone again on a 13 yard passing play from quarterback Graham Berish, making it 29-19. Another Clavet touchdown midway through the fourth quarter by Jason Childs reduced the Rebels’ lead to 2925. That’s when the Delisle defense dug in, and with a little over two minutes to go in the game, the Rebels marched their way downfield and Sam Michnik scored on a three-yard touchdown run, making it 35-25. Clavet quarterback Graham Beresh rallied his troops and scored on the next drive to make it 35-33 with a little over a minute left in the game. After Delisle was forced to punt on their next possession, Clavet took over with 18 seconds left on the clock, but was unable to put any more points on the board. “We just kind of ran out of time,” said Cougars coach Shaun Priel, “We struggled early on trying to get the ball moving. But I’m proud of the guys because they continued to battle and got themselves back in a position late in the game where we had a chance to win it.” Priel gave credit to Delisle for coming into the game well-prepared. “They schemed very well against us,” said Priel. “They put guys in good po-
sitions and we weren’t able to get anything going in the first half.” Delisle coach Ken Byers said pre-game preparation was the key to the win. “Clavet is a very potent offensive team and they’re well-coached,” said Byers. “They’ve also got the edge on us in terms of size, so we knew we had to be smart and know what they were likely to do ahead of time and be ready to counter it.” Byers said the team spent many hours studying film over the last week. “Everybody thinks this is all about being big and tough, but there’s also an element involving strategy, and that’s played between your ears,” said Byers. “It’s very much a mental game. If you study the playbook and watch film you understand football a lot better.” Byers said it also came down to having a good grasp of the rulebook. He noted that at a critical point in the closing seconds of the game, the Clavet quarterback was relegated to the sidelines for three plays after taking off his helmet in the field of play. “We learned that lesson in an exhibition game earlier this season,” said Byers. Delisle receiver Reid Dub-

kowski is among the group of graduating Grade 12 players looking to finish their high school football career with a championship title. “We’re pretty pumped about the next game,” said Dubkowski. “We’ve worked hard to get where we are, and we want to go further.” Byers said it’s fitting that the Rebels will play their final game of the season in Shaunavon. “Last year we hosted Shaunavon in an exhibition game,” he said. “They were supposed to host us in pre-season this year, but they couldn’t make it work. So it looks like fate is taking a hand here. We’re going to play Shaunavon after all.”

Hilltops’ Heide and Thesen savour fourth national football championship By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Warman’s Nathan Heide and Martensville’s Terry Thesen are no strangers to winning. The fifth-year players have helped the Saskatoon Hilltops become Canadian Junior Football League champions four of the last five years. But as nice as those earlier wins were, this victory was the sweetest for the graduating players; as the Hilltops’ 38-24 win over the Okanagan Sun on Saturday, November 7 revealed once again the team’s dominance. “It was huge!” said Nathan Heide in an interview on Monday, November 9. “It was amazing. It was my last football game with the Hilltops.” Nathan, who currently works for the City of Warman’s Parks and Recreation department, came up through the Warman High School football program, playing the offensive line. “I’ve been playing for 10 or 11 years now, and it was so nice to be able to do it at home,” he said. While expectations and hopes are always high going into a big game like this, players aren’t the only ones who feel the pressure. “I was so nervous,” said Randy Heide, Nathan’s father. “That was the most amazing game I’ve ever seen. The tensions were high. One team would get on a roll but that would get taken away by the other team.” A blocked punt return at the very end of the first half

had the Hilltops down by three points. But the team made adjustments at halftime and came back strong, according to Randy Heide. “Our offense was consistent throughout the whole game. The defense came out a little lackluster in the first half but in the second half let only four points in. It was unbelievable,” he said. “The goal line stand by the defense in the fourth quarter was amazing!” Following the win, both Nathan Heide and Terry Thesen took the trophy for a victory lap. The two have been playing together since high school and are blockers who play next to each other on the Hilltops offensive
line. A chemistry has developed among these players that can make words unnecessary. “Playing on the line like we do, you need to know where everybody else is going to be, so you know who you need to pick up. And when you’ve been playing with guys like Terry you get to know the chemistry, you know where each other is going to be without really saying anything. And yeah, its pretty special playing with guys like that,” said Nathan. Thesen attributes the Hilltops’ success to their coaches. “The coaching staff are really awesome,” said Thesen.

Saskatchewan Rush brings lacrosse to the province Rush gears
By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Lacrosse is about to invade Saskatchewan in a big way. In a November 10 press conference Saskatchewan Rush hosted the media in their new downtown office and unveiled their new jerseys. Lee Genier, president of the National Lacrosse League, made the announcement, which will usher in a new era of sport in our province. Like another sports franchise in the province green was chosen for the jerseys. “We took the green because you just couldn’t come to Saskatchewan without having green in the design” said Genier. “Mr. and Mrs. Urban were integral in making this happen. We’ve all put a lot of time into it and they look fantastic.” Bruce Urban is the owner of Saskatchewan Rush. Members of “Crush,” the Saskatchewan Rush dance group, modeled the new jerseys which were greeted with applause. The Rush will take to the field for the first time in Calgary on January 2 2016. Genier predicts the jerseys will look even better at the Rush’s home opener at on January 15. The organization has made strong efforts to engage communities across Saskatchewan. Genier acknowledged lacrosse is a new product and they need to get the word out. “In the surrounding communities we’ve been engaged with the mayors. We’ve been on the ground here about two months and we’re trying to get to everybody. Things are happening really quickly but we’re trying to touch every community in Saskatchewan. That’s why we are the Saskatchewan Rush so we can draw from everywhere. We put on such an amazing product. So its telling

everybody about our story.” It’s no secret how passionate Saskatchewan Roughrider fans are and how far they drive for Rider games, and Saskatchewan Rush hopes to build the same kind of passion and loyalty in their fan base. Games will take place in the Sasktel Centre which holds 15,000 people. Genier would love to see that building filled for every game. Training camps however will like-
ly be moved around to different communities in the future. While lacrosse is new to Saskatchewan, Genier said they’re here for the long haul. “The National Lacrosse League has been around for 30 years. We’re here to stay” he said. The new Saskatchewan Rush office and merchandise location is in the Scotia Centre in downtown Saskatoon. The office is not completed yet but Genier said when it
is, it will resemble an ESPN zone. “We are new in town and of course being new in town you have to make a big splash and that’s what we plan to do here. We have about two months until our home opener. We’re going to play our inaugural game and make history in this city and in this province so its incredibly exciting!” said Genier. “Our team is picked. You can see them on Sunday in the Santa Clause parade.”

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The reigning National Lacrosse League (NLL) champions are gearing up for their first season in Saskatoon after relocating from Edmonton. The Edmonton Rush captured the national title last year after ten seasons in the Alberta capital, but made the move to Saskatoon in July after failing to come to a tenancy agreement with the Edmonton Oilers regarding the arena. The re-branded Saskatchewan Rush unveiled their team logo and jersey at a news conference in Saskatoon on Tuesday, November 10. The NLL team is slated to play its first game at SaskTel Centre on Friday, January 15. Rush owner Bruce Urban says the time is right for a professional lacrosse team in this province. “This is the hottest and fastestgrowing team sport in the nation,” said Urban in an interview on Friday, November 6. “It’s a different type of sport; it’s more physical and exciting than hockey. “I honestly think people will be impressed with the entertainment value of this sport. We have teams in this league that draw higher attendance than hockey. In Calgary we see crowds of 13,000 people.” Urban said the team aims to attract families to their games, and added that the price point for tickets is competitive. “These are professional athletes,” said Urban. “They’re the best in the world at their sport.

Hilltops’ play-calling made the difference knew were going to work, plays we’re comfortable with,” said Nathan. “The coaches listened to us, what we had to say, and they called a really good game,” he said. “They put us in the right spots where we needed to be.” Thesen said the crowd, the biggest he’s seen in the last five years, was extremely loud. “You’re in your fifth year and you’re in a national championship and your whole day is kind of a blur but it actually feels pretty amazing at the end of the day when you realize what
you’ve done. It was pretty cool to play in front of a crowd that was so loud and so into the game,” said Thesen. Both Heide and Thesen are taking time to savour the win, and while they’re starting to look ahead, they’re not in a big rush to tackle their next challenge. “It’s pretty awesome to be able to hold the trophy,” said Thesen, “do a quick lap and see all those happy faces of all your teammates and just hope that one day they’ll be able to hold up that trophy and see what it feels like. It’s a great feeling.”

A parcel of land owned by North Ridge Developments is being developed for light industrial use in Martensville light industrial development. The development and servicing agreement includes construction and irrigated landscaping of an earthwork berm and municipal reserve. A paved pathway and bridge will connect the dog park to the existing trail system. According to a notice posted on the city website, construction will not affect the dog park itself. However, the land under development was informally used as an extension of that park. That use will no longer be permitted. Dog park users are asked to stay out of the work area and to respect all posted signage. The initial site preparation work has been contracted
to Thomcat Management Ltd. Work will begin immediately and continue as long as weather permits, with the remainder of the earthwork completed in the spring.
ZONING BYLAW
City council gave second reading to a new Zoning bylaw. The zoning bylaw is based on the city’s new Official Community Plan (OCP), and takes into account the city’s vision for redevelopment of the core area. First reading of the bylaw was adopted by council at its June 16, 2015 meeting. The bylaw must pass three readings before it is officially adopted.

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca An annual campaign in area churches and schools to provide gifts for impoverished children in other countries is well underway in the area. Lorraine and Ted Redekop, members of the Martensville Baptist Church and local coordinators for Operation Christmas Child, said the campaign is an annual tradition that benefits thousands of needy children around the world. “These shoeboxes are so much more than just gifts for the children,” said Lorraine Redekop. “It changes their lives, the lives of their parents and even the villages they live in.” Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an evangelical Christian charitable organization. Each shoebox is filled by Canadians with hygiene items, school supplies and toys, and is given to children regardless of gender, race, or religion. When

culturally appropriate, copies of a book entitled The Greatest Gift, which has been translated into 130 different languages, are offered to children after the shoeboxes have already been distributed. “Last year 700,474 boxes were collected in Canada and over 10 million around the world,” said Redekop. “Since it began in 1993 over 110 million boxes have been distributed world wide. This year the boxes are going to Haiti, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Chile, Uruguay, Ukraine, Senegal, Guinea, Guinea Bassua and Sierra Leone.” Redekop said shoeboxes are available at some local businesses, as well as
churches and some schools. the collection week for Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes is November 17 to 21, “Martensville Baptist Church is the drop off place during the day, and also on Thursday November 19 and Friday, November 20 from 5-8 pm; and Saturday, November 21 from 1-4 pm,” said Redekop. Warman Elementary School is one of the schools participating in the program. Collection day at the school is November 19. She said many countries have recently changed food safety laws or decided to enforce the laws that are already in place. As a result, inspections of shoeboxes has been stepped up. “One very important change to the boxes this year is no candy,” she said. “This is because some of the countries we ship the boxes to view candy as food and so they can very possibly refuse the shipment of boxes. So it has been decided not to include candy anymore.”

Across five school divisions spanning Regina, Saskatoon, Martensville, and Warman, the $374 million construction project will see 18 new elementary schools open to students in September 2017. “Building 18 schools for more than 11,000 students at once is a huge undertaking, which is why we’re seeing so many local companies working together,” SaskBuilds Minister Gordon Wyant. Partnership with local businesses is one reason the schools project was recently honoured by the Canadian Council for Public Private Partnerships at their national awards The project was awarded a silver medal in the Innovative Partnerships category in recognition of the collaboration between the provincial government, school boards, municipalities, First Nations, and the private sector that facilitated a project of this historical size. “P3s have been successful around the country for many years now and have been successful in our community with both the Regina Revitalization Initiative as well as the Regina Wastewater Treatment Plant,” Regina & District Chamber of Commerce CEO John Hopkins said. “With low oil prices putting pressure on our industries, we appreciate that the government continues to invest in infrastructure,” North Saskatoon Business Association Executive Director Keith Moen said. Overall, it is estimated the schools project will create approximately 2300 jobs in Saskatchewan.
