Firefighters February Formal raises funds for new training centre

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The spruced-up J. J. Loewen Centre in Dalmeny appeared more than ready to host a fancy evening on February 6. The February Formal organized by Dalmeny Fire & Rescue sold out a couple of weeks in advance, attracting locals as well as fire rescue comrades from surrounding communities. Fire Chief Rick Elder indicated the intent of the evening was two-fold. “It’s a fund-raiser and it’s an opportunity for members of this community to interact in a whole different capacity with members of the various emergency services,” he said. When guests were seated before dinner, the Fallen Comrades Ceremony reminded everyone that our fallen comrades are with us in spirit. Bagpipes played as a procession led by Elder placed meaningful symbols on a round table. “We’re ever mindful that the sweetness of enduring peace has always been tainted by the bitterness of personal sacrifice,” said Matt

Bradley, emcee and town councilor. In the silence that followed, guests paused not only to remember fallen comrades, but to reflect on the dangers of the fire fighter’s profession, scenes far removed from a night like this. “We’re compelled to never forget that while we enjoy our daily pleasures there are others who endured the agony of pain, deprivation and death,” said Bradley. The Fallen Comrades Ceremony is a tradition fire fighters honour with due gravitas and without aggrandizement – no photos or videos can be taken. Guests moved through a buffet line to serve themselves salads and entrée items; later people were free to peruse the silent auction anytime. Following the meal, Elder took to the podium to thank members from the Britannia Wilton Fire Department, Paradise Valley Fire Department and the Department of Defense Wainwright Fire Department for traveling some distance to be present. He also recog-

He thanked members of the RCMP, the police service and army cadets for their efforts in ensuring public safety.

Elder had a ‘very proud dad moment’ during the evening. “To have my own son, Flight Corporal Mitchell Elder accompany me in the Fallen Comrade Ceremony was awesome,” he said. Mitch serves with the 107

Spitfire Squadron. He suggested his colleague Ed Finch probably felt similarly as his son, Master Corporal Austin Finch with Corp 3071 Army Cadets and Mitch laid the helmet in honour of fallen military

personnel. Lieutenant Joanne Elder said there’s a strong sense of fraternity and camaraderie between all the mutual aid partners. “We work in an industry where teamwork is essential. Safety is an issue so you always have to make sure you have the other person’s back because it’s a matter of life and death.” She said funds raised through the February Formal will go towards upgraded training grounds. “We’re building a training facility,” she said. “Proper training grounds allows us to train in a more realistic way and therefore allows us to have a better response.” Located near the landfill behind the town shop, the training facility will be close and convenient for Dalmeny Fire & Rescue. The February Formal was designed to be a welcome winter diversion in a community where there are no other formal events throughout the year. After the formalities “Off the Grid,” struck up tunes from the 80s and beyond.

School bus involved in collision on Highway 16 at Langham By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca No one was injured when a school bus with 20 students on board was struck by a truck on Highway 16 at the main entrance to Langham on Wednesday, February 3. “We got lucky today,” said Constable Bill Rowley of the Warman RCMP detachment. “It could have been a lot worse if the truck had hit the centre of the bus rather than its front bumper.” The incident happened at

about 3:30 p.m. as students were being transported home from school. A Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) bus with students from the Langham Elementary School was crossing Highway 16 heading south on Range Road 3074. As the bus pulled into the southeast bound lane of the divided highway, its front bumper was clipped by a large cube truck with Alberta plates. The male driver of the truck took evasive action in

order to avoid a more serious collision, according to police. The female driver of the bus was issued a ticket for proceeding from the median of the divided highway into traffic before it was safe to do so. None of the students were injured. They were transferred to another bus or were picked up by their parents shortly after the incident. Langham Fire Rescue, Dalmeny Fire Rescue, Warman RCMP and MD Ambulance responded to the collision.

Riverside residents oppose plan for Chief Whitecap Park

Martensville winterfest

WAYNE SHIELS | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

This is what fireworks look like (top photo) when the wind is blowing at 60 kilometers an hour. Despite a biting wind chill, hundreds of people turned out to Martensville’s annual winter carnival last weekend. The Christmas tree bonfire (lower photo) provided some welcome warmth.

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca A delegation of about 20 residents of Riverside Estates attended the RM council meeting on Monday to express opposition to changes to Chief Whitecap Park (CWP). The 256 acre park is located south of the city in the RM of Corman Park, but it is owned by the city of Saskatoon. RM administrator, Adam Tittemore said the RM had recently received a petition supporting this opposition. “On January 27 of this year a petition was received from the residents of Riverside Estates. It was opposed to changes at Chief Whitecap Park and asked it be left in its natural state,” he said. Roger Keith spoke on behalf of residents of Riverside Estates. He stated there is no evidence-based data to support the size allocation of a maximum of 80 acres, stipulated by the RM in June of 2013. “We also understand, as we are one of largest if not the largest user group at CWP, that the geographical

redistribution does not consider historic group utilization,” said Keith. He said the latest plan for CWP presented at an open house in January excludes access from the south end which significantly affects residents of Riverside Estates. “Those who enter from the south must walk one mile on-leash to reach the off-leash area.” Keith offered solutions such as increasing the offleash size allocation. “It should be based on the historic utilization of the CWP dog-walking group,” he said. He also suggested moving the segregative fence toward the west boundary, that is toward the river, and extending the off-leash area as far south as possible. A second speaker for Riverside Estates, Perry Kenke, also expressed the wish to leave the park as is. Reeve Judy Harwood said that possibility is likely not on the table anymore. “The idea that it’s staying the same I think is done. I think we’re past that. Now we have to work together and find solutions,” she said.

Harwood also stated council is open to changing that number. The hope is to create a park that is friendly to multi-users. Councilor David Fox made a motion to change the RM’s previous condition for the size allocation of the offleash dog park from not more than 80 acres to not less than 80 acres which passed easily. Harwood and Fox both indicated the process is at the point now where the question needs to go back to the city. Fox said, “I think we can leave it up to the city and the public to decide what size the off-leash dog park needs to be.” Fox added that the RM’s concern is to protect park neighbours from animals that stray off the park boundaries onto their land. In his view, concerns about the south entrance of the park fall under the city’s purview. Following the decision a member of a local off-leash organization said she is more hopeful for an equitable and reasonable solution.

Martensville dance duo will dazzle at Telemiracle

Wheelchair dancer and partner to perform contemporary dance

PHOTO SUPPLIED

Sherry-Lynn Turgeon and Ashley Berrns are performing at Telemiracle on Sunday, March 6 By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Fresh off a performance at the Regina International Film Festival Awards, Sherri-Lynn Turgeon and Ashley Berrns are shifting their focus to Telemiracle where, coincidentally, they’ll be taking that same stage. Both young women are veteran dancers. As the owner of Dance Ink stu-

stand-up partner can stand on the chair and pose, kind of like Ashley does,” she said. The two are excited to participate in Telemiracle. “It’s really fun! The audience is really pumped and it’s cool that your family and friends can see you at home because it’s on TV,” said Berrns. “It’s always a great experience. I like being a part of it. It’s a really great cause.” All the money raised goes to people right here in Saskatchewan. The pair are doing a contemporary dance with a significant range of movement. Berrns said they’ve performed it a few times and had really nice feedback. To be considered for Telemiracle, the two performed a live audition and heard in early December that they were chosen for the show. Now, Berrns says, they have to get back into practice mode and “getting it back in our bodies.” Berrns choreographed much of the dance routine with some help from Tur-

geon. Berrns said choreography is a large part of her career path right now. But performance remains an important passion. “Dance is a great way to share my creativity and to challenge myself through something I love to do. Performing is defi-

nitely the highlight,” she said. Berrns has received awards for her choreography as well as her dance performances but says she still gets nervous every time she goes on stage. “But once I get out there, auto-pilot kicks in and I forget. It’s adrenalin,” she

said. Turgeon said she gets more excited than nervous. She said both she and Ashley are perfectionists. Turgeon and Berrns will take the stage at Telemiracle on Sunday, March 6 at the Conexus Arts Centre.

Turgeon is a wheelchair dancer who first performed for Telemiracle at age five with the University of Saskatchewan School of Dance.

Elementary school chips in to help Warman Food Bank By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Students at Warman Elementary School (WES) are doing their bit to help local families who’ve hit a rough patch. The K-3 school donated $1,891.35 to the Warman Food Bank (WFB) program at an assembly on Friday, February 5. The funds will

be used to assist families in financial distress who need a short-term boost, according to Gina Geransky, administrator of the Awakening Church in Warman. “This year we’ve helped a total of 40 families,” said Geransky. “The food bank program is front and centre during the Christmas season, but it actually runs all

year long. It’s run discreetly, so the recipients are not identified.” The WFB program is operated by the Warman Ministerial Association, a partnership of the community’s churches. It collects funds through donations from businesses and private individuals as well as organizations and schools. The program’s biggest fundraising event is the annual Warman Carol Festival in December. The WFB issues vouchers which can be redeemed at

Warman Elementary School

grocery stores by the recipient families. There are also vouchers for children’s toys. “Rather than supply hampers with food, the vouchers allow families to make their own food choices,” said Geransky. The elementary school has collected funds for the WFB for many years, according to WES Principal Scott Dyck. “Rather than have a gift exchange, we felt that this was a way that the kids could give back to their community in a way that

is very meaningful,” said Dyck. “The Warman Food Bank is a charity that we consistently support, because it is local and everyone can see the benefits. “We actually raised a grand total of $3,674.35 for three separate charities,” he added. “We gave half of the funds to the food bank;

Warman Elementary School Grade 3 students Teigan and Spencer present a cheque for $1891.35 to Gina Geransky of the Awakening Church. The funds will be used by the Warman Food Bank to help local families.

Registration packages will be mailed in the spring to those who have contacted Warman Elementary School office. Once you’ve received your information package, it will be necessary to fully complete the forms and return them as soon as possible for your child to be enrolled at Warman Elementary School.

Education mill rate unchanged

There will be no increases in the education property tax mill rates for 2016 as the Government of Saskatchewan is maintaining rates at the same level as in the previous three years. “Saskatchewan property owners will continue to receive the benefits realized by the province meeting its commitment to reduce education property taxes and increase its share of funding for education costs,” Minister of Government Relations Jim Reiter said. The government has determined the 2016 education property tax mill rates will be: 2.67 mills for all agricultural property; 5.03 mills for all residential property; 8.28 mills for all commercial and industrial property; 11.04 mills for all resource property. The province took over setting the education property tax mill rates in 2009, and all ratepayers in each respective property class were levied the same mill rates.

Energy East pipeline should get green light The Government of Canada needs to start supporting and promoting Canadian pipeline projects like Energy East and they must do it now. While it is important to give these types of projects appropriate safety and environmental consideration, we can’t continue to play divisive political games with them. If our politicians keep doing this, our country will lose out on opportunities for increasing foreign investment, creating jobs, and growing the Canadian economy. We’re all familiar with procrastinating on tasks that might be difficult or annoying. Our federal politicians are no different. Why work on a potentially controversial pipeline project when you can just request an additional review of the project and put it off for another year. This is a classic

case of procrastination, writ large in the context of our national government. Just like getting your kids to do their homework when you know they’d rather be playing video games, we need to tell our federally elected representatives to sit down and do their work. No more distractions, negotiations, or excuses about why it can’t be done… they just need to sit down and do it. We don’t want Canada to become known as a country that procrastinates on projects because they might be a bit difficult. We need to work harder at becoming a place that the rest of the world envies because we just get hard things done. We need to move beyond playing games with Energy East and pipelines in general. Let’s get them done. Steve McLellan CEO, Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce

Lower than normal runoff

The Water Security Agency has released the preliminary outlook for spring runoff. A below normal runoff is anticipated for most of the province, however it is still early and conditions can change over the remainder of the winter. Some areas in east central Saskatchewan had more water on the landscape than normal going into winter freeze up and should expect near normal runoff. There is also an area extending from Yorkton to Last Mountain Lake that may see above normal runoff based on the current conditions. Saskatchewan has experienced a warmer and drier than normal winter so far. Generally most of the province is looking at a below normal snow pack for this time of year. There are some areas in the east central region north of Yorkton up to Hudson Bay and west over to Nipawin where the snow pack is near normal.

AUDITED CIRCULATION: 17,709 VOL. 8 NO. 23

To compare Premier Brad Wall’s Saskatchewan Party government with that of Premier Grant Devine’s Progressive Conservatives is damning, largely politically motivated and mostly inaccurate. While both were rightwing, benefited from a rural base and even enjoyed some of the same characters and supporters, there are dramatic differences. The Devine government is firmly established as one of the worst in Canadian history. Democratically speaking, the PCs allowed voters in Souris-Cannington, Indian Head-Wolseley, Turtleford and Qu’Appelle-Lumsden to go without representation for longer than any others in Canadian history. They stretched their last mandate past the five-year mark and didn’t even pass a budget in the last year of that mandate. It was a government plagued with scandals, including cushy government jobs to partisans (even sending out notices to party supporters that their kids would be hired for summer jobs) and Sedco loans to supporters, ministers and even their children. Controversial ministeri-

al resignations/firings were common, including Colin Thatcher’s in the wake of his ex-wife’s murder. Thatcher would later be charged and convicted. And then there was the great caucus communication allowance scandal that produced 19 charges (16 against MLAs; three against caucus employees) that resulted in 14 criminal convictions (12 MLAs and two caucus staff). Short of Serge LeClerc; who resigned in the wake of controversy for allegedly using marijuana and cocaine; Wall has avoided scandals. No ministers have resigned in shame and we now have set election dates. Wall’s government has engaged in patronage, but nothing close to the Devine years. In fact, one might argue that Wall’s administration has a better moral record than the previous NDP government. However, the ever-lasting impact of the Devine PCs was its fiscal incompetence:

10 consecutive deficit budgets that increased provincial public debt by roughly a billion dollars a year. It is this legacy from which Wall and his former PC counterparts in the Sask. Party have most tried to distance themselves. And with record revenue in its first full year of government in 2008-09, it looked like Wall and company were going to put more distance between themselves and the financial incompetence legacy than they had between themselves and the old PCs’ reputation of corruption. But there are now big problems for Wall in making the case that Sask. Party is completely unlike the old Tory government when it comes to running up deficits. At the annual Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA) gathering in Regina last week, Wall announced both the current 2015-16 budget and the 201617 budget (the one the Sask. Party will present, presuming it wins the April 4 vote) will be deficit budgets. Admittedly, we are nowhere close to the 1980s and early 1990s when Saskatchewan had 12 straight deficits from 1982 to 1994; 10 representing every year of the PC

administration and two by the Roy Romanow NDP government while cleaning up the mess. Nor is it even yet as bad as six deficits we had in 21 years between the end of the 12-year deficit streak and Wall’s announcement of the 2015-16 deficit. Those deficits came in three-year streaks. Under Lorne Calvert’s NDP government there were consecutive deficits in 2001-02 ($483 million), 2002-03 ($654 million) and 2003-04 ($147 million). And Wall’s Sask. Party ran up consecutive deficits in 2009-10 ($409 million), 201011 ($13 million) and 2011-12 ($105 million). So here’s what disconcerting about Wall’s deficit announcement: Deficits are habit-forming, usually coming in bunches. It took the PC and NDP governments 12 years to break the deficit cycle. And we continue to pay those for those deficits via interest payments. Second, presuming Wall’s government does run up a deficit in 2016-17, it will represent five deficit budgets in nine years of governing. It’s not as Devine’s record, but it’s not one to be proud of.

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.

Fire Rescue members, community pay respects to long-serving firefighter By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Bill Braun gave a lot to his community over the years. And on Sunday, February 7, hundreds of people from Warman and the surrounding area paid their respects to the longest-serving member of the Warman Fire Rescue organization. Braun, who passed away on Monday, February 1 at the age of 83 from a brain tumour, was a lifelong resident of the area and a member of the Warman Fire Department from 1968 till 2012, where he achieved the rank of Lieutenant. He served on Warman Town Council from 1970 to 1985; was twice honoured as Fireman of the Year in 1997 and 2003; and was awarded the Warman Citizen of the Year honour in 2006. He leaves behind his wife of 59 years, Catharine; daughter Maxine (Wes Enns), sons Ivan (Luella), Gary (Vera), and Glen; 17 grandchildren and 13 greatgrandchildren; brother Aron and sister Margaret. He was predeceased by his son Dale and daughter-inlaw Dorothy. His funeral service at the Warman Bergthaler Mennonite Church was attended by hundreds of people. An honour guard of firefighters from Warman, Martensville, Osler, Dalmeny, Langham and Rosthern stood at attention as Bill Braun’s casket passed slowly in front of them after the service, and several fire trucks led the interment procession. Braun’s yellow firefighter helmet was carried by one of his grandsons, Joshua Braun, who is a member of the Calgary Fire Department. The church service was a fitting reflection of Braun’s

life: reserved and respectful but with a touch of quirky humour. Gord Thompson, who retired as Warman Fire Chief last December, paid tribute to his long-time friend and colleague. “Bill was always there to help,” said Thompson. “He was our resident Mr. Fixit; he was our treasurer for many years and kept the books right to the penny; he kept the vehicles running and the hall spotless.” Thompson said all the firefighters in communities in the North Corman Park area had great respect for Braun. “During the Warman fire department’s monthly meetings, Bill would usually comment that he’d been around so long, he deserved a watch,” said Thompson. “When Bill eventually did retire, he got a watch... from every single member of the department.” Thompson said Braun was a veteran of countless emergency calls, but is best re-

membered for quietly, and single-handedly, preventing what would have been a memorable, and very embarrassing, fire. “Bill saved our old fire hall from burning down one day,” said Thompson. “Bill always checked the vehicles twice a day every day when he went for coffee. On this occasion he discovered a battery in one of the fire trucks was overheating. It would have caught fire, but he unplugged it and saved our hall and our trucks.” Members of Braun’s extended family honoured his legacy at the church service. His son Ivan and daughter Maxine shared the story of their father’s life; while his great-granddaughter Madison Milot moved everyone to tears with her crystal clear vocal rendition of “Amazing Grace.” John Hein conveyed his brother-in-law’s spiritual faith through leading three congregational hymns. Pastor Martin Wiebe said Bill had achieved “inner peace” in the months lead-

Kelvin Ooms, Bryce McGillis, Ken Goebel and Ken McSheffery are teaming up to represent Warman Fire Rescue and the City of Warman in the Firefighter Stair Climb Challenge on May 1.

Martensville information centre returning to roots as part of ‘re-branding’ initiative By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca With a new website and a new logo in the works, the Martensville Information and Visitor Centre (MIVC) is putting the finishing touches on a facelift that’s been a year and a half in the making. Formerly known as the Martensville Community Access Centre (MCAC), the volunteer-run organization began several years ago as a resource centre for information on everything from literacy and government services to street maps of the community. Over the years, it evolved to encompass a variety of programs including ‘Baby Babble’ and ‘Toddler Talk’ for young families; and a tutoring service to help elementary students with their homework. Operating out of a rentalsubsidized room in the cityowned Martensville Civic Centre, the MCAC returned

the favour by organizing some key community events like Canada Day on July 1. But relying on annual grants from constantlychanging funders proved to be a challenge, however, and in 2014, the centre’s board of directors began looking for more self-sustaining ways to keep the doors open. The board opted to focus on the centre’s original objective of providing information to residents and the general public, and to provide contracted administrative support to the newly-established Martensville Chamber of Commerce. The MIVC is also helping the local chamber of commerce organize the Martensville Community Expo, set for April 1 and 2. MIVC Coordinator Kristee Lynn Adrian said in many ways, the re-branding represents a return to the centre’s original mandate. “We’ve always been an information centre,” said

Adrian. “But we also took on other programs over the years because there was a gap. “Now the city is filling those needs with increased programming, particularly at the Martensville Athletic Pavilion. So we’re able to refocus more on our original role of education and information. We’re kind of coming full circle back to where we started; but with a twist.” The new element is the introduction of a visitor centre role for the MIVC. “We get a lot of people who are here for sporting events or other attractions, and we like to be able to give them information about our community,” said Adrian. “It’s grown so much and it has so much to offer that even long-time residents may not be aware of everything we have here.” The centre will continue to offer its core programs, including the ‘Ah

Students receive a helping hand during an ‘Ah Hah Homework Club’ session at the Martensville Information and Visitor Centre Hah Homework Club’, but is working to build on partnerships with the city and other groups in Martensville when it comes to other programs. “We’re focusing on the needs of the community,” she said. “That’s our overall objective.”

Emergency Response information session planned An information session to explain the purpose and structure of the Warman Emergency Response Team (WERT) is set for Tuesday, March 15 at 7:00 p.m. at the Legends Centre.

Randy Meginbir, Warman’s Emergency Measures Organization (EMO) Coordinator, said the information session will feature a video outlining how similar community-based emer-

gency response teams operate in cities and towns across the United States. There will also be speakers on how the teams are organized, trained and other practical aspects of the

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccggazette.ca Ashley Baerg is riding new waves of success. On the water she is unstoppable. Her incredible achievements in California last year at the Disabled World Water Skiing Championships (DWWSC) has earned the Dalmeny resident two ‘Athlete of the Year’ awards. In November 2015, Baerg was named Female Disabled Athlete of the Year by Pan Am. The award notes that Baerg posted an impressive first in ‘Jump,’ first in ‘Trick’ and third in Slalom at the Elk Grove, California competition. These results netted her a first overall finish at the event as well. In January, the International Water Ski and Wakeboard Federation (IWWF) named Ashley Baerg, ‘Disabled Athlete of the Year-Female’. “This is the first time a Canadian has been award-

is pretty amazing!” said Baerg. A couple of years ago Baerg shifted her focus from wheelchair basketball to water skiing, so the basketball schedule has fallen off. She says the budget for their national team isn’t big enough for a training camp. So, for now, she’s holding out for summer. “The second I can get out on the water I’ll be back there,” she said. Baerg also enjoys skiing recreationally. “Being out on the water for me is so relaxing. When I am out on the water it is just me, no distractions.” She has looked into buying new equipment for this year, a new ski in particular. But with the recent nose-dive of the Canadian dollar, shipping costs aren’t looking that attractive. For now, that decision is on hold. “I’m saving up my money for new equipment.”

Dalmeny athlete takes top honours twice in the same year ed this prestigious honour,” states the announcement. This news has no doubt warmed up some winter months for Baerg, in this time away from the water. “I am completely honoured by these awards,” she said. Along with their congratulations, both organizations

also noted that since joining the Canadian Adaptive National Team in 2013, Ashley has embraced an attitude of dedication, hard work and focus. The IWWF award draws from a much larger pool. “Considering I haven’t been skiing very long, this award

Having won two Athlete of the Year awards, Ashley Baerg’s motivation is undimmed. She hopes to break more world records

She’s also pondering approaching the Spina Bifida Foundation for assistance. The 2016 training season will be important, she said. Australia has bid for the 2017 Disabled World Water Skiing Championships. “This summer I want to be out on the water as much as I can be. With the ‘worlds’ being in Australia, this season is all I have to prepare,” she said. Despite these awards, Baerg still has more mountains to climb, or in her case, more waters to ski. “I want to break some world records. I always want to break my own records. I hold the Canadian record for jump and trick but not for the slalom. I think I could be close. At the end of last year, I realized I was maybe a little better at slalom than I realized. That goal might be more attainable than I thought,’ said

Baerg. She is 2.5 feet short of the world record in jump and wants to close that distance as well. Baerg says she’s always been super competitive in anything she’s done. “I don’t know if it’s a personality trait of mine or if it came from having spina bifida. I don’t know if maybe when I was younger I felt like I had something to prove, like, ‘If you can do this, so can I’,” she said. If she was competitive in childhood and youth, that drive seems only to have increased in the past few years. The competitive bug has really come out to play. “I always want to be better than the last time I was out on the water,” she said. Baerg has been a Dalmeny Citizen of the Year. Her determination and success is immensely inspiring.

Rush rough up the Roughnecks

WAYNE SHIELS | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Calgary’s Karsen Leung fails to stop a pass to Rush’s Ben McIntosh, who then broke in to score one of his three goals on the night

by WAYNE SHIELS essenceofsask@gmail.com The offence came alive as the Saskatchewan Rush defeated the Calgary Roughnecks 19-12 before a record crowd of 9580 at Sasktel Centre on Friday, February 5. Rush forward Zach Greer was in a zone as he scored seven goals, including five unanswered markers in the second quarter, to help the Rush set a franchise record of 14 goals in the first half. Ben McIntosh and Robert Church had three goals each. Mark Matthews and Curtis Knight had two goals each while Chris Corbeil and Jeff Cornwall contributed singles. The seven goals by Greer is a franchise record for goals in a game. The previous Rush single game scoring record was 6 goals held by Mark Matthews (twice), Chris Gill and Scott Evans. On his record-breaking night Greer explained, “My stick was hot tonight.... When you start feeling it you put the ball at the net a little more and it goes from there. It is a lot of hard work by everyone else going forward, giving me open looks”

Warman, Clavet win CVAC junior basketball titles By CORRIE POMARENSKI Warman High School The Warman Wolverines won the Junior A Central Valley Athletic Conference (CVAC) Girls Junior Basketball Championship, while the Clavet Cougars took the boys side title at a season-finale tournament last weekend. Warman High School (WHS) hosted the CVAC Junior Basketball Championship on Saturday, February 6. The Warman Wolverines junior girls team would first play long time rivals, Dalmeny, who they lost the CVAC Championship to by ONE point last year. The Wolverines came out hungry but struggled in the first half to sink many shots. The second half proved to be their game, however and they came out on top, downing Dalmeny 43-29. The victory put the Wolverines in the finals against season rivals, Langham. Although the Warman Junior Girls have consistently started out cold but finished strong, we would see a different team against Langham. As when they played North Battleford Comp a few weeks ago, the girls came out focused and determined to take the gold. They dominated from start to finish with a final score of 61-41. Coaches Folden and Fast couldn’t have been happier with how the girls played, not just today but all season! With only three returning players (Cara Misskey, Re-

Saskatchewan In A Strong Position to Manage Economic Challenges

In spite of a downturn in the resource sector, a resilient and diversified Saskatchewan economy continues to attract people, investment and job growth. This is a big change from a decade ago when an economic slowdown would have resulted in less investment, fewer jobs and a declining population. The impact of lower oil prices and a softening resource sector globally has resulted in Saskatchewan dealing with serious revenue shortfalls. Government Ministries and Crowns have been controlling spending but with little room left to reduce costs there are two choices: raise taxes or run a temporary deficit. Our government has reluctantly decided to manage this shortfall in revenue by running a deficit this fiscal year. Because of continued weakness in the resource sector, we expect there will be a deficit next year as well. Saskatchewan people can be assured we are focused on meeting their needs and investing in what is important as we work toward returning to balance by 2017-18. Financial responsibility is the cornerstone of the Growth Plan. Our government plans to continue controlling spending, planning for the future, and moving forward, never losing sight of Saskatchewan’s destiny. The principles and goals of our Growth Plan will continue to guide us: * Supporting innovation; * Investing in infrastructure; * Engaging with the world; * Expanding educational and training opportunities; and * Ensuring our economy is competitive

Saskatchewan people are pragmatic and prudent with their own finances and should expect the same from their government. Our record since 2007 reflects this prudence; we’ve lowered the province’s debt to GDP ratio to the second lowest in Canada; we’ve earned Saskatchewan’s first ever triple-A credit rating; and we’ve lowered the tax burden for people across the province.

We had some opportunites tonight, and executed really well.” On the team’s overall play Keenan said, “I think we’re getting there.

Consumers now have stronger protections when buying a vehicle in Saskatchewan. Licensed dealers have new advertising requirements and vehicle history disclosure rules, as well as new minimum warranty requirements on the sale of used vehicles. Consumer complaints about extra fees and charges above and beyond the advertised price have led to these new rules. Licensed dealers must include accurate pricing in their advertising. If a dealer advertises a vehicle for a specific price in an ad, that price must include any fees and levies up front (not including taxes), this is called “The Drive Away Price.” Licensed dealers are required to tell consumers important information that might affect their decision to buy. Some of these disclosure requirements include, but are not limited to: providing a SGI VIN search, disclosing if a vehicle had its odometer rolled back, if it was a rental, and if the vehicle is new and was damaged in transit totalling more than 20 per cent of its value. These new protections do not apply to private sales.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE | THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2016 PG. 12

uspicion, hostility, accusation and betrayal, fuelled by a growing climate of fear, are the hallmarks of The Crucible, an Arthur Miller play based on true events from the Salem Witch Trials. As the inaugural show for the new Martensville High School Theatre, The Crucible was an ambitious choice with impressive results. It’s a serious play with serious actors, performed over three days from February 4 to 6. “This play has a serious appeal for sure. It’s a very fascinating subject matter,” said Micah Robinson, director and theatre arts instructor at Martensville High School. The dessert theatre event offered a variety of creations by the Commercial Cooking Class. Inside the theatre, guests were seated at round tables with linens and candles, creating an attractive ambience. The Crucible is a classic that first appeared on Broadway in 1953, and collected the Tony award for best play that year. “This show is straight from Miller’s script, start to finish. We haven’t modified it,” said Robinson. It’s quite an undertaking for a high school theatre group and a massive accomplishment. The Crucible presents dangerous dilemmas to people startled by the escalating circumstances they find themselves in. The extended witch-hunt marches headlong to the gallows. “It’s a very interesting period of time that goes down in history as a very black eye for the colonies,” said Robinson. The Salem Witch Trials represent a notorious case of mass hysteria that resulted in unprecedented incidents of capital punishment. Some sought to maintain their integrity in the climate of fear, and ended up swinging from a rope. “A lot of people were put to death for witchcraft.

blind justice

It’s a very frustrating thing because most of those people were innocent,” said Robinson. The peril of these times was captured by Martensville High School student actors, whose faces and bearing were often gripped with

fear or exasperation, and whose voices moved from shouts and screams to nearwhispers. “The actors I have this year are extremely good actors, not just for high school but generally,” said Robinson. “I feel very fortunate

to have such an incredible group of young actors, who seemingly have no difficulty playing the parts of both young and old people.” Costumes made by students in the Theatre Arts Class were beautifully designed with admirable de-

tailing, and were true period pieces. Equally effective was the set, made by students, from the wood floor boards to the ‘stone’ fireplace. “It’s an elaborate set. I feel it is quite artistic, with the floating windows that repre-

sent walls that aren’t there and things like that. We’re very proud of the costumes and the set,” said Robinson. Played convincingly by Chase Chorney, presiding Judge Danforth remains unmovable throughout the proceedings betraying no emotion through his gravelly directives other than steely resolve. No light of reason will sway him, no appeal for clemency will be heard. The pursuit of the guilty strays from the original witch-hunt for girls dancing in the forest, drinking potions, at least one of whom was reportedly naked. By the time farmer John Proctor comes under scrutiny, things like his failure to attend church regularly, tilling the fields on Sunday and not knowing the commandments are added to the mix. Totally beaten after a stint in prison, Proctor, played by Reidar Fee, gets on the false confession train, only to renege at the last moment. He refuses to put a signature to his verbal confession because it will be posted on the church door. At the end of the play he is ‘hanged.’ The true test was pulling off a hanging that looks real. “It’s not an easy thing to pull off a stunt like that, to have a believable looking hanging. That took a lot of preparation and I’m very proud of that,” said Robinson. “It’s artistic, it’s not like its gratuitous violence. I think it’s a great way to put an exclamation point on the end of the play.” It was an impressive stunt. Robinson says he loves period pieces, and in the case of the Crucible, it wasn’t just the costumes and the dialogue, it was particularly the depth of the characters. He believes today’s world is not without some parallels to the fearful environment created by the Salem Witch Trials. “All over the world there are people who generate fear for which there is no basis. And in some cases that ultimately leads to the demise of some people, when it doesn’t have to,” he said.

TAURUS April 20– May 20

Interpersonal dynamics are constantly changing, and you may have a challenging time wrangling in your relationship to where it feels comfortable, Taurus.

GEMINI May 21– June 21

Even if you are uncertain about someone’s intentions, it is best to give that person the benefit of the doubt. However, an ounce of skepticism never hurt anyone.

sudoku

CANCER June 22– July 22

It is better to make your choices sooner rather than later this week. Putting decisions off only complicates matters. It may be an anxious time, but you will pull through.

LEO July 23– August 22

Stop worrying about how others see you, Leo. This week own up to your beliefs, even if they seem to go against the norm. You may be surprised at the support you receive.

VIRGO August 23– September 22

Virgo, a hectic week leads to lots of demands on your time. Take things one task at a time and do not be afraid to say “no” if you feel you are overwhelmed.

LIBRA September 23– October 22

Libra, frustration at work may not be directed at any one person, and you can’t let it consume your life. Make the frustration work to your advantage instead.

SCORPIO October 23– November 21

Romantic thoughts this week will have you on a mission to spend quality time with a loved one. You may do everything in your power to be near your significant other.

SAGITTARIUS November 22– December 21

Don’t try to erect barriers, Sagittarius. This week you have to let someone in and unburden some of the problems or thoughts that have been weighing you down.

Teachers, school staff acknowledged Education Minister Don Morgan has proclaimed February 7 – 13 as Teacher Staff Appreciation Week in Saskatchewan. “Preparing students for their future is an important responsibility,” Morgan said. “We are fortunate to have dedicated teachers and school staff in our province who care deeply about helping students. Every day, great things are happening in our schools thanks to their efforts.” This year’s theme “Creating Learners for Life,” highlights that learning is a life-long experience. The Saskatchewan Association of School Community Councils (SASC) promotes the week across the province to draw attention to the important contributions that teachers and school staff make to students’ education. “Teachers model life-long learning through their ongoing educational and professional development op-

Osler Fire Rescue and Warman RCMP personnel responded to a singlevehicle rollover on Highway 11 at Osler on Wednesday, Feburary 3

Highway 11 rollover at Osler results in minor injuries

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Three people suffered minor injuries when their SUV rolled on Highway 11 near Osler on Wednesday, February 3. The incident occurred at about 8:30 a.m. just north of the south entrance into Osler. RCMP officers said a grey

SUV traveling northbound left the roadway and skidded into the east ditch, where it landed upside down on its roof. Two adults and a child in the vehicle suffered minor injuries and were treated at the scene by Osler Fire Rescue first responders and MD Ambulance paramedics. All three were transported

into hospital in Saskatoon by MD Ambulance. One lane of the northbound lanes of the highway was blocked for about an hour while emergency personnel attended to the injured and police investigated the cause of the crash. The highway did have some icy sections which may have contributed to the rollover.

Liam, Olivia among the most popular baby names in Saskatchewan in 2015 eHealth Saskatchewan has released the top 20 baby names for 2015. Liam was the most popular name for baby boys for the sixth year in a row and Olivia was the most popular name for baby girls. The second most popular names were Noah and Emily. There were 69 baby boys named Liam in 2015, followed by (in descending order) Noah, Benjamin, Lincoln, Lucas, William, Hudson, Wyatt, Hunter, Jack, Jacob, Owen, Carter, Ethan and Samuel. There were 80 baby girls named Olivia, followed by

(in descending order) Emily, Emma, Ava,Avery, Sophia, Zoey, Brooklyn, Aria, Mia, Lily, Hannah, Claire, Sophie and Chloe. Perhaps the royal family’s newest addition influenced some parents in Saskatchewan, as Charlotte was one of the top 20 girl names in 2015 for the first time.
