RCMP PHOTO

Donovan area man charged with theft of farm machinery A 38-year-old man is facing a total of 29 charges relating to the theft of over $1 million worth of farm machinery from a number of dealerships.

With the assistance of Warman RCMP and the Saskatoon Police Service Stolen Auto Unit, the Saskatoon RCMP General Investigation Section executed a Search Warrant on a rural property located in

the RM of Montrose on February 11.

The search resulted in the recovery of farm machinery and implements stolen from citizens and dealerships in the Saskatoon, Biggar, Outlook and Rosetown areas.

Iain Stables, 38, of the Donovan district is facing 29 charges and will be making his first court appearance in Saskatoon Provincial Court on Thursday, April 14, 2016,

The value of the property recovered is estimated to be in excess of $1.2 million dollars. Stolen machinery that has been recovered includes five John Deere Farm Tractors, two John Deere Hay Balers, two John Deere Gator side by sides,two Dodge Trucks,one Cattle Hauler, one Car Hauler, one Haybuster,one Mower, and one Tiller.

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Two drivers escaped unharmed after a collision on a country road south of Langham.

On Tuesday, February 9 at about 4:25 p.m. a pickup truck was traveling north on grid road 3074 when it was struck by a Hyundai SUV traveling west on Township Road 374, at the intersection of the two roads.

“The SUV had a yield sign but the driver of the SUV failed to yield to the northbound pickup truck, so they collided,” said Cpl. Ray Lachance of the Warman RCMP detachment. “The SUV rolled at least once,” he added. The vehicle came to rest in a field while the pickup truck ended up facing the opposite direction from its original course.

The driver of the SUV was taken to hospital by ambulance as a precautionary measure.

Work starts on bridge in Saskatoon’s north end

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The City of Bridges is adding another river crossing over the South Saskatchewan River; this time at the city’s north end.

Construction of the North Commuter Parkway bridge officially got underway on Thursday, February 11 with the launch of the “Bridging to Tomorrow” project at the intersection of Marquis Drive and Wanuskewin Road in Saskatoon’s north end.

The project includes construction of the north commuter bridge and a new Traffic Bridge in Saskatoon’s downtown core. The total cost of the project is $497.7 million and includes capital, operating, maintenance and rehabilitation costs over a 33-year period.

The project is being costshared by the municipal, provincial and federal governments. The province is contributing $50 million while the federal government is chipping in up to 25 per cent of eligible costs toward the project, approximately $55 million.

Graham Commuter Partners was awarded the de-

sign-build contract in October 2015. Construction of the North Commuter Parkway bridge is scheduled to be completed by October 2018.

The new bridge is expected to not only link a major west-side industrial part of Saskatoon with growing residential neighbourhoods on the city’s east side, but also provide more efficient crossings for residents in communities in North Corman Park. The bridge will connect Marquis Drive on the west Side and McOrmond Drive on the east side.

“Our government is pleased to invest $50 million toward the North Commuter Parkway Bridge,” Education Minister and Saskatoon Southeast MLA Don Morgan said on behalf of Government Relations Minister Jim Reiter. “The City of Bridges’ latest addition, the North Commuter Parkway, will serve a valuable role in reducing commute times, while also increasing capacity for Saskatoon’s future growth.”

An estimated 20,000 vehicles per day are projected to use the bridge in its first year. Once the city reaches a population of 400,000, the

Provincial Education Minister Don Morgan (left to right) Saskatoon Mayor Don Atchison, Saskatoon City Manager Murray Totland and Graham Commuter Partners Senior Vice-President Johm Connolly blast air horns signalling the beginning of construction of the North Commuter Parkway bridge project on February 11 daily vehicle count on the bridge will likely be about 50,000.

“We’re grateful for the continuing strong partnerships with the federal and provincial governments in helping to ensure the people of Saskatoon ben-

efit from infrastructure investments,” Saskatoon Mayor Donald Atchison said.

“Both the Parkway and the new Traffic Bridge will shorten commute times, cut fuel costs, offer more transportation options for cyclists and pedestrians, and help

grow the economy; all of which improve our quality of life.”

Through the P3 Canada Fund, the federal government will invest while the Province of Saskatchewan will contribute $50 million.

“We’re pleased to be a

partner in the development of this historic infrastructure project, and to be continuing our long-term relationship as a valued service provider to the City of Saskatoon,” GCP Senior Vice President, Infrastructure John Connolly said.

MP wants tax rebate bumped up for school divisions

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The Greater Saskatoon Catholic School Division had an unexpected visitor at their annual meeting on February 8.

Conservative MP for Saskatoon-Grasswood, Kevin Waugh, stopped by with an idea that began in the form of a question.

The meeting was held in Holy Family Catholic School, located in Willowgrove. It’s the newest school in the division, until Holy Mary in Martensville and Holy Trinity in Warman are completed in 2017.

Diane Boyko, chair of the Board of Education had already run through school division successes from the past year – things like a family refugee sponsorship campaign launched at St. Matthews School, a new religion program, improvements to serving Metis and First Nations students, and strengthened home school partnerships.

Greg Chatlain, Director of Education, and Joel Lloyd, Superintendent of Administrative Services, also presented updates.

When it came time for questions, Kevin Waugh had

one: would the school division like to save a million bucks?

It seemed they wouldn’t mind.

Waugh is proposing a Private Members Bill in the House of Commons at the end of March. He’s working on a bill that would net schools divisions a full rebate of the GST they pay in a given year.

“Right now school divisions in Canada pay GST. They get a rebate of 68 per cent back. I’m trying to get a 100 per cent back. In Canada, we pay 32 per cent GST to the federal government,”

said Waugh.

Waugh put his question to Lloyd in the meeting, asking him what would be the number at Holy Family Catholic School, how much would they potentially save.

“If I can get this thing passed, I think, with you guys being the third largest school division in the province, I might be able to save you a million dollars or so,” said Waugh, adding that the number is $7.8 million provincially.

Lloyd said analysis of the GST rebate has been conducted and he could get Waugh the numbers by the

end of the day.

“It would be in that range,’ he said. “It has been a sore point for our division board as well.” This is partly because in 2004, the GST rebate to municipalities was increased to 100 per cent, but school divisions have not been afforded the same savings.

Waugh said that’s why he’s going forward with this. It’s been his passion since October 19. But he had to wait six weeks for the parliamentary library to get the wording on his proposal correct.

“I’m just doing school divisions right across the coun-

try, I’m not going to include the universities because often when private members bills do go forward they’re too big.”

He’s working on gathering numbers here in the province from 28 school divisions.

“This will be a big bill,” said Waugh. “It’s a big bill because it’s taking some revenue away from a government that likes to spend.

And I’m fighting on this end, trying to put it into the classroom rather than putting it elsewhere.”

The GSCS took the information under advisement.

Many locals added their feedback via sticky notes to a P4G draft land use map for the area north of Saskatoon. Presented at a couple of open houses on February 9, the map identifies areas designated for agricultural use, conservation and drainage, country residential, urban and rural.

Partnership for growth unveils draft land use map

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The Partnership for Growth (P4G) has mapped out a version of the future for the area north of Saskatoon.

The P4G unveiled a draft Regional Land Use Map at a couple of open houses at Wanuskewin Heritage Park on February 9.

“I’d estimate that over 250 people attended the open house, and we hope residents will continue to provide input over the coming days and weeks,” said Alex Fallon, president and CEO of SREDA. The partnership is comprised of the cities of Saskatoon, Warman and Martensville, the town of Osler, and the RM of Corman Park and includes representation from the Saskatoon Regional Economic Development Authority (SREDA) in an advisory role.

The future imagined by the P4G estimates population growth up to half a million in the next 20 years, and up to a million, sixty years from now.

Fallon said the main challenge was finding the right balance for land use

categories. “We sought to find the right mix of agricultural, conservation and drainage, country residential, urban and rural,

so that the region grows in a sustainable way,” he said. This involves contingencies to ensure growth is balanced and manageable across the region over time.

Adam Tittemore, administrator for the RM of Corman Park said one of the things the RM is looking for is certainty for their ratepayers and developers as to what they can do with their land.

Tittemore said going forward, the RM does not want to be viewed as a future land bank for urban municipalities.

“We want to work together with urban municipalities to make sure our residents have opportunities for investments and room to grow within the RM as well, recognizing that the urbans do need to grow,” he said.

Phase three, the final phase of the P4G plan, wraps up in September 2016. In the interim, work will continue on finalization and implementation of the plan.

“There remains a lot of work to do in terms of developing strategies for servicing and looking at infrastructure that may be required,” said Fallon. The necessary conversations about governance, jurisdictional matters and shouldering financial costs will take place.

Gov’t revises development restrictions in Corman Park

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Evan McMillan says drivers need to be cautious when passing tow trucks

Tow truck drivers face highway hazards every day

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Evan McMillan of Warman has had a few close calls on the job.

“About one a month, on average,” said McMillan, owner of Reliable Towing. “It’s not for the faint of heart, that’s for sure.

“When you’re hooking up to a vehicle on the side of the road, it gets pretty crazy sometimes. You have to be really careful.

“I’ve had vehicles whizzing by that almost take the mirrors of my truck.

“And there’s always the possibility they could be texting or otherwise distracted at the wrong moment,” he added. “Especially in the wintertime if it’s icy or if it’s dark.”

McMillan has a word of advice for drivers: slow down.

He notes that provincial law dictates that traffic

must slow down to 60 kilometers per hour when passing emergency vehicles.

Tow trucks are considered to be emergency vehicles, just like police cars, fire trucks and ambulances.

The trouble is,, the law is often ignored by drivers who seem to regard tow trucks as an inconvenience.

“Tow truck drivers with reputable companies are trained professionals,” said McMillan. “They’re doing their job as quickly and efficiently as possible. I try to get hooked up and gone in ten minutes or less. Sometimes if there’s an accident scene it takes a little longer.”

McMillan said experienced tow truck operators do their best to avoid blocking traffic and ensure they are visible to oncoming drivers.

But even with all those precautions, industry ana-

lysts estimate that over 100 tow truck drivers are killed annually in North America, according to the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA).

McMillan believes that if tow trucks were allowed to use flashing lights that were a different colour than amber, it may make a difference. But the bottom line, he adds, is that drivers need to recognize the importance of slowing down when passing tow trucks.

He said any vehicle pulled off on the shoulder represents a hazard, and noted even changing a tire can be dangerous if precautions are ignored.

RPC inmate death under investigation

The death of an inmate at the Saskatoon Regional Psychiatric Centre on February 10 is under investigation.

Bruce John James, 62, died February 10 at the institutional hospital. James had been serving an indeterminate sentence since

January 27, 1987 for First Degree Murder.

As in all cases involving the death of an inmate, the police and the coroner have been notified, and the Correctional Service of Canada will review the circumstances of the incident.

The RM of Corman Park is advising residents that development restrictions in some parts of the municipality have been revised by the provincial Highways Ministry.

A notice posted on the RM website on Friday, February 12 reads in part: “The Saskatoon Freeway (formerly known as Perimeter Highway) is a proposed provincial highway around the City of Saskatoon and though Corman Park that would improve traffic flow, alleviate congestion and improve safety.

“Additional planning began in 2015 to determine a new route for the Saskatoon Freeway in the south and west parts of Corman Park. As part of the study, the Ministry of Highways & Infrastructure placed a subdivision/development restriction on land in portions of the R.M. “Now that the study has progressed, and based on input received at a open house in December 2015, that restriction area has been revised but not removed entirely.

“If you are located anywhere south of Township Road 380 and east of Range Road 3070 please contact R.M. planning staff to discuss your location and proposed subdivision/development. Call 306-242-9303 or email planning@rmcormanpark.ca to reach a R.M. planner.

“Depending on your location different restrictions may apply or you may have no restrictions at all. It is important to have these discussions with R.M. planning staff prior to hiring surveyors or contractors to start your project. We don’t want you to incur costs and then find out your subdivi-

sion or development cannot be approved at this time.

“The subdivision/development constraints areas will be refined as the project progresses this year.

More information on the project can be found by clicking the link below or contacting R.M. planning staff.”

Sask. Party seats a sure thing, but…

If one looks at the 27 Saskatchewan rural seats the NDP simply will not contest, Kindersley would certainly be in the top five.

For those that haven’t been following provincial politics closely, NDP leader Cam Broten said in yearend interviews he believes his party is competitive with the Saskatchewan Party in 34 of the 61 seats on the province’s new electoral map.

To be clear, “being competitive” does not mean winning them all. It may not mean even winning half of them.

What it does mean is New Democrats’ polling shows they think they can only have a chance in the urban and northern seats.

While that might mean more seats on April 4th than the nine seats the NDP currently hold (presumably, nine of the 34 seats in which the NDP claims it is competitive), it would seem to mean that even New Democrats know that they are a long ways away from the 31 seats needed to form a majority government.

What it also means, is the NDP is basically writing

Provincial Politics

off those other 27 ridings, thought to be rural seats like Kindersley.

One can certainly understand why the NDP would be writing off such seats.

The NDP hasn’t won the Kindersley-area seat since 1971 when Allan Blakeney first became premier.

And either the Progressive Conservatives or Sask. Party have now won this seat in every election since 1978; even when their local MLA has given Kindersley voters ample reason to question their actions.

Despite the Grant Devine Progressive Conservative government that left Kindersley voters without representation longer than just about all Canadians in peace time history, the fact that former PC MLA Bob Andrew was one of those convicted in the PC caucus fraud scandal and even the fact that current Sask. Party MLA Bill Boyd switched

parties, voters in this large farm and oil-based seats have shown their strong preferences to selecting the right-wing alternative.

In fact, Boyd has now represented the riding for almost 25 years; his first six years as a Progressive Conservative and his last 19 as a founder and major with the Sask. Party that included the past eight years as the government’s economic development minister.

One wonders if Boyd has even campaigned all that much in his riding since his first election in 1991; largely because he hasn’t had to campaign all that much.

After all, he still did amazingly well in Kindersley even when spending much of his election time campaigning provincewide as PC leader or as a Sask. Party key strategist.

So does that mean the Sask. Party is impervious to the recent criticism of Boyd and his handling of issues like the Global Transportation Hub? Well, let us be clear that there is a very high probability that the Sask. Party will win and an even higher probability that Boyd will

cruise to an easy victory in Kindersley.

But it might be interesting to watch and see if voters are ready to send a bit of a message.

Setting aside rumours and controversies directly related to Boyd, issues related to his performance as minister are starting to pile up.

The 2009 debacle over the predicted $2-billion in potash royalty revenue that turned into the government paying the industry money was on Boyd’s watch. So was the debacle over SaskPower’s so-called Smart Meters and much of the controversy over the $1.9-billion carbon capture and storage project at Boundary Dam. Now, add in the story that the Global Transportation Hub also a Boyd responsibility _ where wound up paying three and four time more than market value for land. You have a narrative that voters don’t much like.

It’s unlikely to cost Boyd his seat or the Sask. Party government.

But don’t assume that means voters in Kindersley or elsewhere are completely happy.

You can have a positive influence, students told

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Brian Trainor has been helping kids make positive changes in their lives for decades.

But it wasn’t until two years ago, when the retired police officer, author and motivational speaker lost his young grandson to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), that Trainor realized how urgent his task was.

“Losing my grandson Nathan so suddenly and without any warning, had a huge impact on me,” said Trainor in an interview during a break in a speaking engagement at Warman Community Middle School on Wednesday, February 3. “It made me realize that life is short; that there are no guarantees and we need to start doing a better job of living in the moment.

“We need to be good to other people, and we need to forgive ourselves and set things right.

“Life is too short to be nasty to others.”

Trainor said while the incidence of face-to-face bullying appears to be on the decline, ‘cyber-bullying’ is actually getting worse, thanks to the perceived anonymity of internet and social media apps. He said the proliferation of cell phones and other devices, including gaming systems like X-boxes and Playstations, are exacerbating the problem.

“Gaming systems are actually computers with pretty extensive capabilities,” said Trainor. “A lot of parents don’t realize that, and they tell their kids to play their games in their room; which is exactly the wrong approach.

“As parents, you need to be aware of what your kids are doing online, and set limits,” he added. “The only way you’re going to be able to do that is to understand what these apps are and what their implications are.”

Trainor said kids as young as seven or eight years old are given cell phones and are using apps like “Find a Friend” that allow others to know the exact location of the child’s

phone at any given time.

“It’s totally scary,” said Trainor. “Kids aren’t even texting each other anymore; they’re just turning on that app to find out where their friends are.”

Parents need to take responsibility when it comes to the internet, said Trainor.

“We give these kids these tools like cellphones but we don’t teach them to use them properly,” he said.

“We just tell them to behave themselves, but don’t have any idea what they can do with their devices.

“These kids are not afraid of this technology. They embrace it because they are growing up with it.”

Trainor spent several de-

His daughter and son-inlaw, who live in Martensville, are the organizers of a “Snow and Shine” with supper and dance slated to take place on Saturday, February 20 at the Brian King Centre in Warman.

The first annual SIDS sled rally last year raised $10,000 for Baby’s Breath Foundation, which provides funds for research into the causes, and prevention, of SIDS.

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Programming at the Dalmeny Library presents a range of diversions for people of various interests and ages.

Kids, for example, had a chance to get crafty making “Paper Hugs” at a dropin program on February 10 and 11.

February offers two crochet nights, on the 10th and 24th. A zippy-looking Michael’s Striped Market Tote is the project for these two sessions.

Report from the

Legislature

Nancy Heppner MLA MARTENSVILLE CONSTITUENCY

Strong Saskatchewan Job Growth

The strength and resiliency of Saskatchewan’s economy is evident as our province posted one of Canada’s strongest year-over-year job growth rates in January.

While Saskatchewan is down 1,900 oil and resource jobs compared to this time last year, a diversified economy created new opportunities, adding 5,200 new jobs.

Saskatchewan’s unemployment rate is the lowest in Canada at 5.6%.

Premier Proposes Federal Assistance for Oil Services Sector

Despite overall employment growth in Saskatchewan, the resource sector nationally has lost jobs. Saskatchewan for example is home to many energy service sector employees now without work.

The Accelerated Well Cleanup Program (AWCP) is a plan to protect jobs and help the environment by accelerating the clean-up of oil wells no longer capable of production.

The proposal, which calls for $156 million in federal funding to help stimulate employment, has been discussed with and forwarded to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for consideration.

Agri-Food Exports Surpass 2020 Growth Plan Target

Agriculture is the foundation of our province and remains a prominent economic driver, supporting our provincial finances as we deal with the downturn in the resource sector.

Saskatchewan continued to lead the nation as Canada’s top agri-food exporting province in 2015. Our exports met the demand of 145 countries, setting a record with total sales of $15.1 billion.

The Government of Saskatchewan remains focused on market development and trade advocacy to ensure the high quality products Saskatchewan produces move freely to new and existing markets.

Investing In Innovation

Let us water-proof the roof over your head

BHP Billiton has recognized Saskatchewan’s leadership in carbon capture and storage (CCS) with a $20 million investment in a new CCS Knowledge Centre through the University of Regina.

The Knowledge Centre will attract interest and accelerate the development of CCS technology, which we know is an important part of the solution in the global fight against climate change.

January was the best month yet for our Boundary Dam 3 CCS facility, working every day and capturing 85,000 tonnes of CO2.

Model railroaders pick up steam as big show nears

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca After putting in hundreds of hours of work on their intricate scale-model train layouts over the past year, Dave Peters, Jack Fehr and the rest of the members of the Rocky Ridge Model Railroad Club in Martensville are pumped about showing off their creations at the end of the month.

“It’s not an obsession,” said Fehr with a grin as he helped pack up the custom-made cases for transporting the club’s 13-foot by 42-foot display.

“It’s therapy.”

The “All Aboard 2016 Model Train Show” at the Western Development Museum, slated for the weekend of February 20 and 21 at

the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon is the second-largest in western Canada.

“Last year they had about 6,000 people pass through the exhibit,” said Peters in an interview on Wednesday, February 10. “It’s getting bigger every year.”

The six-member Rocky Ridge club is one of several across the province that take part in a circuit of model train exhibits that includes stops in Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, Prince Albert, Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg.

The Saskatoon show, organized by the Prairie Rail Workshop, attracts miniature railroad enthusiasts from across western Canada and the United States. It’s a mecca for hobbyists, spectators

and merchants, as companies do a booming business supplying model train paraphernalia to newbies and veterans alike. There’s also plenty of buying and selling at consignment tables.

But the big attraction is simply the train displays themselves.

“It’s a lot of fun,” said Fehr, a founding member of the club, which began a little over a year ago. “And the more you get involved, the more fun you have.

“I’ve always been interested in trains,” he added. “I enjoy watching them and went to the shows for the last couple years, and then started buying my own stuff.

When Dave and his son Kevin wanted to start this club, I jumped at the idea. We had a meeting at

my place and formed a club, and we’ve been going great guns ever since.”

The local club includes members from Martensville and Saskatoon, each of whom will contribute locomotives, rolling stock and track layout to the exhibit. The intricately-detailed locomotives can cost up to about $700 each, and each car averages between $20 to $50.

The trains are hooked up to wireless remotes so they can be operated seamlessly by exhibitors as they walk around the display talking to spectators.

Peters said he has about 15 locomotives and 160 rolling stock. “It’s quite an investment,” said Peters.

“But it’s worth it.”

It takes about three hours to set

WANT TO MAKE A

up the club’s track layout on custom-made tables with ingeniouslydesigned legs that can be adjusted to ensure the table tops are absolutely level.

Fehr said the shows give model railroaders a chance not only to show off their own displays, but to tour other exhibits, pick up ideas and talk with like-minded enthusiasts.

“There’s a real sense of camaraderie among club members who are into this hobby,” said Fehr.

“Regardless of where they’re from.

Everybody is always ready to help out and give advice.”

The Rocky Ridge club is always ready to welcome new members, said Peters. His contact number is 306-229-1022.

PERFECT TIMING

Colorado defeat Sask Rush

Sask Valley Vipers are peaking just in time for the playoffs

by WAYNE SHIELS essenceofsask@gmail.com The Sask Valley Vipers recorded three straight wins last week to wrap up the regular season on a very positive note.

The Vipers beat the Saskatoon Generals 4-2 in a penalty-filled contest at The Legends Centre in Warman on Thursday, February 11. The Vipers were led by their captain, Austin Lamotte, who netted two goals. Kyrell Sopotyk and Jerzy Orchard chipped in with singles.

On Saturday, February 13, the Vipers dominated the visiting Notre Dame Hounds in Martensville and came away with a convincing 6-1 win. Scoring for the Vipers were Austin Lamotte, Holden Knights, Nolan Doell, Cohner Saleski, Jerzy Orchard and Alex Miller. The score could have been even more lopsided

were it not for the great play of Notre Dame goalie Ryan Buchan.

The Vipers closed the regular season with a 9-3 win over the Regina Aces on Sunday, February 14 in an afternoon game at Martensville Arena.

The game was tied 3-3 going into the third period before the Vipers netted six unanswered goals. Austin Lamotte had a three-goal, two-assist game; while Kyrell Sopotyk had two goals and four assists. Also scoring were Nolan Doell, Cohner Saleski, Laine Hruska, and Josh Pillar.

Coach Shaun Priel was very pleased with the effort of his team.

“It’s a matter of building consistency and trying to be the best players they can, every single night,” said Priel. “We’re seeing that over the last three games.”

Sask Valley Vipers’ Austin Lamotte screens Regina Aces goalie Reece Hodson Key to the Vipers’ recent success is their intensity, pressuring their opponents for the full sixty minutes.

“We have been preaching all year for them to use their speed,” said Priel. “When you

are working hard, you get the defenceman turning, putting them in a bad spot.”

The wins helped the Vipers secure fourth place in the very competitive North Division of the Saskatchewan Ban-

tam AA Hockey League. This placement means they have a first round bye and then home ice advantage when they face the Saskatoon Stallions in the playoffs. Game dates and times have yet to be set.

The Royals downed Carrot River in two straight games by scores of 6-4 and 6-2 to advance to the next round.

Game 1 of the series is set for Hague on Wednesday, February 24 at 7:45 p.m.; while Game 2 is slated for Clavet on Sunday, February 28 at 1:00 p.m.

Meanwhile, the Delisle Bruins advanced to the next round in Bantam D provincial playoffs after defeating Edam. Delisle tied the first game 5-5 and won the second game by a score of 5-2.

Delisle takes on Macklin in the upcoming round.

by the Battlefords Barons.

Battlefords won both games in the series by scores of 7-3 and 13-4.

By BRAD KRAFT brad@saskrush.com The Colorado Mammoth handed the visiting Saskatchewan Rush its second loss of the season on Thursday, February 11.

The Rush came out in the first quarter maximizing posession and time on attack.

At the 8 minute mark Colorado had a quick transition that led to the first goal of the game. Coach Keenan immediately challenged the goal because of Jarret Davis’ shot moments before, his had actually crossed the goal line. After a quick review, refs overruled ruling on the field taking away the Colorado goal and awarding Jarret Davis with the opening goal of the game.

Zack Greer puts away the second goal of the game off a sweet pass from Robert Church at the 3:51 mark of the first quarter, putting the Rush up 2-0.

Colorado put a goal on the board with a minute left in the first quarter.

End of the first quarter score 2-1 Saskatchewan Rush. Shots were heavily in favor of the Rush with a count of 17-8.

TrAininG For A MArAThon

Part 1

Want to run a marathon? Take one step at a time. The following are some tips to help you in your quest to run that marathon.

Fitn ess ti

13

Ps

Mileage: Training for a marathon is more than going for one long run each week. It’s about the total amount of running you do within a week. It’s about becoming as aerobically developed as possible to finish the marathon. Novice runners usually fail to understand this aspect of athletic training. Many of them don’t run enough miles during the week to support a long run on the weekend. Running 4 - 5 miles on a 2 or 3 weekday basis, won’t do any justice to your legs with a 15 mile run on Sunday. Even if you get away with this once, doing that every week will only lead to serious injuries.

Long runs: How to avoid injuries is one of the most important factors of athletic training. Make sure that the long run is not more than a third of the total weekly mileage. For example, if you are planning to run a 20 mile run, make sure you are running at least 60 miles per week. Most people training for a marathon fail to run that much.

Circumvent the problem of making the long run a large percentage of the weekly total by trying a midweek, medium long run that is about 65% – 75% of the length of your long run.

One good option is to lengthen the long run by a mile at a time for 3 – 4 weeks before backing off for a recovery week. You can even run the same distance a few times. Keep adding miles until you reach 20 – 22 or 3 1/2 hours (whichever comes first) and do the longest run 2 – 3 weeks before the marathon. One of the aspects of such athletic training is to remember that it is more important to be on your feet than the number of miles ran.

These tips are mostly for novice runners. Now what about people who have already ran marathons? Do you want to improve your finish time? For that, you will need a different athletic training strategy. Alternate your long runs with a medium-long run for 12 – 16 miles by combining long-slow-distance (LSD) running with segments at acidosis threshold (AT) pace. AT pace is a comfortably hard aerobic pace, about 15 – 20 seconds per mile slower than your current 5K race pace or near your current 10K race pace. These LSD/AT combo runs simulate the physiological and psychological fatigue of the marathon.

In the second quarter Nik Bilic took a holding the stick minor penalty and the Mammoth immediately capitalized scoring a goal to tie the game a 2-2 at 12:30.

John Grant Jr. helped put the Mammoth in the lead midway through the second by assisting Crawford on a jumping crease slam dunk goal at the 10:00 mark.

Matthews tied the game 3-3 with 3:00 left in the half.

Curtis Knight got the lead back for the Rush with 30 seconds left in the second quarter to enter the halftime break 4-3.

Shots on goal at the half were still in favour of the Rush 29-17.

The second half opened with both teams trading

penalties, first the Mammoth received a holding penalty, then at the 10:30 mark, Rush had Too Many Men penalty, and the Mammoth capitalized with a shot from John Grant Jr to tie the game 4-4.

Gajic scored again 8 seconds later putting the Mammoth up 5-4.

Gajic put another shot on Bold at the 8:12 mark of the third putting the Mammoth up 6-4. Then immediately after the ball drop Sullivan put his first goal of the season on the board putting the Mammoth up 7-4. Colorado put up four goals in 3:19 in the third quarter.

Waddle put Colorado up 8-4 on a diving crease goal.

Bold made the initial save, but it trickled past the goalline.

Ben McIntosh finally put

the Rush back in the game at 3:50 of the third making the score 8-5.

Robert Church opened the fourth quarter with a power play goal, his fifth point of the night to make the score 8-6.

Jarret Davis made the score 8-7 at 12:50 with a shot from up top and outside.

McLaughlin scored his second of the night at the 8:48 mark of the fourth putting the Mammoth back up two goals with a score of 9-7.

Lintz and Crawford took two minute roughing and unsportsmanlike conduct penalties respectively at the 5:00 mark of the fourth. The Rush pushed hard for the remainder of the play, but it wasn’t enough to come back from the 9-7 deficit.

Final score Mammoth 9, Rush 7.

Hague Royals set to take on Lanigan in next round of Senior A provincials CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12

Hanley School drama explores 1930s life

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Great Depression of the 1930s hit the prairies harder than anywhere else in the world.

From Texas to Saskatchewan, the central part of the continent became a massive dust bowl during a decade marked by drought, financial collapse and social upheaval. Conditions were so harsh that the “Dirty Thirties” left lasting scars on several generations; not just those who lived through the depression years, but also their children and grandchildren.

Playwright Leanne Griffin of Hanley heard the echoes of that era in the stories her grandmother told around the kitchen table.

“I found it so intriguing and interesting to hear about that period in our history,” said Griffin in an interview. “People faced so many physical and mental challenges, just making a living from day to day. It’s incredible how they kept going when everything seemed to be against them.”

But, not everyone made it.

Some people broke down psychologically, said Griffin.

“I did some research on the Weyburn mental institution,” she said. “A lot of women who had trouble coping with the isolation, the pressure and the harsh conditions were sent away to places like that.

“You wouldn’t see that kind of thing today, but in those days, people didn’t talk about mental health the same way; it was an embarrassment and a scandal.”

Griffin’s research on actual cases at the Weyburn institution during the 1930s led her to write a script for a drama class at the school in Allan. The play went on to win awards at the provincial high school drama festival.

Later on, when she began teaching special education students in Hanley about 16 years ago, Griffin reprised the production with drama students at that school.

“It’s about how the harsh elements of life and of the land during the Great Depression often led to an internal depression,” said Griffin. “In the play, the main character is an elderly woman named Sarah who reminisces about the events that occurred in her family during 1935 and 1936, and as she looks at photographs of the past, the events come to life on stage.”

The sound effects are all created live by a ‘chorus’ of actors on the edges of the action, similar to a 1930s radio show.

“We wanted the people doing the music and the sound effects to be visible, but not part of the action,” said Griffin. “It’s different, but it works really well. They’re giving ambience to the performance through their soundscape.”

Of the fifteen plays she’s

written over the years, “Dust” remains one of Griffin’s favourites because of its strong psychological content and its connection to rural Saskatchewan.

This year, students at Hanley School are ‘dusting off’ the award-winning script for a new generation.

“A lot of the kids in this production were in Kindergarten the last time we put it on,” said Griffin. “So for them it’s totally fresh and new.

“I’ve added some more music to this version, because two of the actors in this group are sisters who have beautiful singing voices.”

Griffin is co-directing the

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2016

play with Hanley School teacher Brandon Hutchinson, while Dave Carter, a coordinator with Prairie Spirit School Division, is helping as a technical advisor.

The play is slated to run April 6 and 7 at Hanley School. Once those performances are done, the cast and crew pack up the production and hit the road for performances in Rosetown on April 8 and 9 as part of the regional high school drama competition.

Griffin’s passion for drama has helped Hanley School reach provincials several times, and the school has earned numerous awards over the years.

Police and Crisis Team bolsters mental health response capacity

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Saskatoon police officers are much more equipped to deal with crisis situations involving people with mental health and addictions problems thanks to an innovative program launched a little over a year ago.

The Police and Crisis Team (PACT) program was introduced in June 2014 to ensure a person in mental health crisis would receive help from the right person who would get them to the right care. The goal is to improve community safety, reduce arrests due to psychobiological issues and reduce unnecessary and inappropriate emergency department visits.

The program is a collaborative effort involving the Saskatoon Police Service (SPS), the Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) and the Saskatoon Crisis Intervention Centre (SCIC).

“It’s a good partnership,” said SPS Inspector Mitch Yuzdepski. “It used to be that the police were the agency of last resort for families in need, but with the advent of 911, we really have become the agency of first resort.

“The difficulty is that police officers may not have all the skills and training necessary to respond to people with mental health crisis. This partnership allows us to respond in real time to real-time crises with better tools.”

Through PACT, a police officer with mental health training is partnered with a mental health professional from Saskatoon Crisis Intervention Service. The team responds to calls when their

Saskatoon Crisis Intervention Service Executive Director Rita Field expertise is needed. There are now two teams in place to respond to calls.

Currently 58 Saskatoon Police officers have received training in dealing with mental health issues. Yuzdepski said the goal is to have 100 officers trained by the end f the year.

Saskatoon Crisis Intervention Service Executive Director Rita Field said the PACT teams responded to a total of 875 occurrences between November 1, 2014 and October 31, 2015.

“It’s a very simple model,” said Field, “The police officer and the mental health worker are partners. They ride together in the same car and they respond to 911 calls during the day.”

Field said the PACT teams are a logical extension of the work of the crisis intervention service agency, which itself responds to about 6,000 calls a year and is also available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Field said the crisis intervention service is available to residents of communities outside Saskatoon’s boundaries, but at

this time the PACT service is limited to Saskatoon.

“At some point in the future PACT may be extended,” she said. “But that’s a decision that the health region and the other partners will have to make down the road. Right now, the available resources are in Saskatoon.

“We are confident that the addition of PACT has helped reduce stigma and barriers related to mental health and addictions issues in our community,” added Field.

“The numbers and the stories tell us that this enhanced partnership with the Saskatoon Police Service and the Health Region has provided informed response at the critical time of need with caring, safer and more long lasting results.”

Saskatoon Health Region Director of Mental Health and Addictions Services Tracy Muggli said the PACT teams have been instrumental in reducing costs for both the justice system and the health care system.

“As a result of the PACT team, 97 people did not need to go to the emergency department,” said Muggli. “Of the 192 individuals who requested help with suicide risk, 94 were helped in the community with appropriate referrals and support.

“Saskatoon police officers were kept from responding to 900 calls that didn’t involve a criminal offence.”

The savings that resulted from the 31 people who were kept out of the court system was a “minimum of $57,164,” said Muggli. “There has also been at least $198,898 in cost avoidance to the Saskatoon Health Region.

By MACKENZIE HEINTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Prairie Outlaws defeated the Warman Wildcats 11-2in Game One of the first round of Fort Carlton Hockey League playoffs on February 12.

Despite the lopsided score, the first period was really close with both teams having multiple scoring chances.

Seven minutes into the opening period, the Outlaws caught a break on their first goal of the game, when Brock Hounsell scored a shorthanded goal to give his team a 1-0 lead.

Later on in the period, the Wildcats had a golden opportunity to tie the game. Warman had a 5-on-3 power play for 1:41 but couldn’t capitalize as Outlaws goaltender Aaron Stock made some key saves.

The Wildcats only trailed 1-0 after the first period.

In the second frame, the Outlaws broke the game wide open, scoring seven goals.

In the opening minutes of the second period, Kelly Friesen of the Outlaws fired a slapshot which went past Warman goaltender Jordan Locke.

Lukas Sutter and Jordan Menke both lit the lamp three minutes after the Locke goal, as the Outlaws led 4-0 at that point. Just over six minutes into the period, Dan Lind scored Warman’s first goal of the game.

Shortly after the Warman goal tempers flared as Tanner Tyndall of the Wildcats and Justin Lund dropped the gloves.

After the fight, the momentum seemed to go the Outlaws’ way. A minute after the fight, the Outlaws were showing great puck movement in Warman’s zone, and Darren Gillen had an open net on the goalie’s left side, not letting the opportunity go to waste, he scored.

Just past the midway point of the period, Jordy Guillou netted one for the

Wildcats.

For the rest of the period, the Outlaws continued to dominate, scoring three more goals. Tory Stott, Chris Durand and Darren Gillen were the goal scorers, and the Outlaws led 8-2 after 40 minutes of play.

The Outlaws scored another three goals in the final frame and went on to win the game. Chris Durand, Brett Blatz and Mark Hinz scored the goals.

Game two of the series is Saturday February 20 at 8:15 in Warman, and Game three Sunday, February 21 in Waldheim at 2:30 pm.
