Restless soul cracks Canada open in first book

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Where is the largest baseball bat in the country located? What is an ookpik? What’s the story on Hawkins Cheezies? If you think you know Canada, you might want to grab a copy of The Great Canadian Notebook. The book delves into a plethora of Canadianisms, some of which will no doubt be new to you. It is Dennis Rimmer’s first book. The longtime broadcaster and journalist is now retired and finally found the time to gather these pages. The book is a collection of stories from a ‘Canada Column’ he wrote for the Bellingham Herald over a 14 year period, along with a few extras. “I’ve always wanted to have a book or two or three with my name on it (or them) out there,” said Rimmer, who now calls Radisson home. He credits his wife Diane for making it happen. They gave themselves a six-week deadline over the summer, and she got it done. Essentially, Rimmer explained Canada to Americans in over 700 columns. “People liked it! I was amazed,” he said. The book is engaging, informative and doesn’t aspire to be a weighty historical tome. “It’s a great educator, but it’s not dry and boring.” You can read a chapter and come back later and read another one without missing a beat. The Notebook asks and answers questions, debunks myths, takes issue at times, discusses prominent Canadians (including Saskatchewanians), Canadian food, wildlife, towns, events, politics, etc. Pink Elephant Popcorn, Jim McCrory, Brian Cox, and Dan Murphy, a ‘sweet’ 97-year-old former Radisson resident all re-

was simply to tell Canadian stories. “I think there’s a lot of stories that we do not tell about ourselves as Canadians that have to be told, otherwise we forget them,” said Rimmer. It’s about celebrating our national identity and preserving culture. “I would like to have this book in every school room and every library in the country, if possible.” He’s heard from a lot of people that the book “teases you to find out more.” It also includes clips from the past, such as what happened on a given day in Canadian history.

Crossmount seniors development offers blended care

HILARY KLASSEN | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca A new model of care for seniors is taking shape on a bucolic former grazing pasture just south of Saskatoon. Crossmount Village takes aging in place to a new level by offering blended services. “It’s not a housing development project, this is a health project with a housing component,” said developer Duncan McKercher. “We are trying to offer seniors a nice, attractive alternative to existing senior accommodation in this marketplace.” The far-reaching vision is designed to address all levels of care through independent living, condo style living, supportive care and full care. McKercher says Saskatchewan is 25 years behind when it comes to how they treat seniors. “The rest of the world is turning to blended.” Blended care allows seniors to stay in their community regardless of the health challenges they may encounter in the aging process. “Just because you get a diabetic shot once or twice a day does not mean you have to live in a care home,” he said. Blended care allows spouses to stay together instead of being separated when the care needs of one necessitates institutionalization. “The problem with the thinking

and contribute to the local food movement. “People want to know where their food comes from.” An agri-tourism area is mapped into the longer-term design. Crossmount features many outdoor gardens with seating areas. Residents and visitors will be able to walk through the orchard and along trails, with many opportunities to enjoy the sunshine. Grandpa has opportunities to get his hands dirty as well. Roy’s Place is imagined as a three-car garage for motor mechanics, welding, repairs, woodworking and finishing with a huge coffee bar in centre. McKercher honours his Scottish family roots in various design elements. Crossmount is the name of his family’s manor house in Scotland. Glenlyon Hall, a generously windowed, high-ceilinged event venue, overlooks a small lake and has already hosted weddings, corporate and Christmas events. Next summer’s wedding season is completely booked. McKercher says the country setting, where he used to chase cows as a kid, appeals to older adults who have lived in a rural environment for many years and resist retiring to an urban setting.

Carbon tax needs to be stopped before damage is done The fight over Ottawa’s plan to impose a nationwide carbon tax is just heating up and we in Saskatchewan have the best seats in the house to watch it unfold. And, as Premier Brad Wall has repeated over and over for the past several months, now is not the time for the feds to be dipping into the pockets of taxpayers. Commodity prices are depressed and thousands of workers in three of those sectors in particular – oil, potash and uranium – are out of a job. If pushed through in Saskatchewan, agricultural producers are next in the cross hairs. Not only is the economy hurting in many areas of the country, but it’s been revealed that a new carbon tax will “cascade” throughout all parts of the economy and cause prices to increase across the board. A carbon tax is not exactly an elixir for a struggling economy. While supporters would like to believe everything our prime minister has planned to fight climate change is the best thing since sliced bread, adding a tax to the cost of everyday living is not the answer. If it was, Australia would not have repealed their carbon tax long ago after that country realized it did nothing to lower emissions while causing massive job losses. Premier Wall is right on this one. For Canada to implement a pan-Canadian carbon tax is to put jobs and the economy at risk since our largest trading partner (not to mention competitor) has no intention of following suit. Canadian businesses that rely on trade with the United States will be at a significant disadvantage once a carbon tax is in effect on input necessities such as fuel and electricity. No one is really sure if it is arrogance or plain naivety on the part of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, but his statement is unsettling that regardless of who is in power in the United States, Canadians will set environmental policy in Canada. Simple economics says that other countries will seek out alternatives rather than pay higher prices for Canadian-made goods. The end result is closed manufacturing plants and more jobs lost in Canada. All in the name of what? Lowering our world’s emissions by a fraction of a percentage point? Those who can see through the Liberal rhetoric know that carbon taxes are nothing more than a plan to artificially shift wealth from province to province and country to country. Premier Wall has been the only premier to date to oppose this tax from the beginning and has indicated a court challenge is a possibility. Ring the bell, Premier Wall. Ring the bell.

Old-school Christmas originals “It’s a classic of journalistic writing, granted. But no, you can’t run that worn-out old literary chestnut again this year,” grumped the Editorin-Chief, when I suggested we reprint Francis Pharcellus Church’s editorial entitled ‘Yes, Victoria, there is a Santa Claus’, in the Gazette’s Christmas edition. “That piece came out in the New York Sun in 1897, for Pete’s sake. It may be charming and insightful but it’s pretty dated and it’s not exactly local. “Besides, that’s what Uncle Google is for. Stuff like that you can look up on the internet,” he added, chugging back a swallow of cold coffee. “You’re supposed to be a professional writer.

Our annual Christmas issue showcasing elementary school children’s short essays is a tradition that began in 2010 with a total of nine classes, and it’s grown every year.

Christmas, some kids said a new car because their old one is messy, or old, or still has milk splattered on the roof from several years ago; or a new phone because their parents are always losing or breaking theirs; or a new TV because somebody in the family is always hogging the remote. One youngster wrote the best Christmas present ever would be a monster-size piece of bacon because his family never seems to have enough. Another young author showed a nice turn of phrase by noting her mother “loves fancy dresses and loves to dress fancy.” Still another thought her hockey-playing dad was deserving of a scholarship to the NHL. Several kids had lessflattering descriptions of the odours emanating from their fathers’ “stinky” hockey bags. Chocolate was a popular choice as a present for a lot of kids. One class devoted their efforts to celebrating the nativity and other religious aspects of the season.

But through all the students’ writings, there’s a common thread that emphasizes a child-like faith in strong family and community relationships, goodwill, friendship and love. And that, after all, pretty much sums up the true spirit of Christmas. As Francis Pharcellus Church put it: “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.” There. I snuck in at least a little chunk of that old chestnut. Merry Christmas.

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.

Students embrace spirit of giving at Christmas By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Ask a youngster what they like best about Christmas and they’re likely to say: “Presents!” But for two Grade 5 classes at Venture Heights School (VHS) in Martensville, the festive season provides an opportunity to focus on giving, rather than receiving. “We’ve adopted the theme of ‘12 Days of Christmas Kindness,’ and on each day leading up to the holidays, the students do something special for people in their community,” said Meagen Mitchell, a teacher at the school. “It’s a way of showing them that Christmas is about much more than getting new toys. It’s about generosity and caring for others.” She and fellow Grade 5 teacher Garett Soparlo are coordinating their classes’ efforts to bring Christmas cheer to others. The activities included a toy drive, writing letters to “hidden heroes” in the community, clothing donations for an inner-city school in Saskatoon, and donations to the annual Christmas food hamper campaign organized by the Martensville Fire Department. On Wednesday, December 7, the students brought home-baked treats for members of the Martensville Fire Department, as a way of showing their appreciation to the volunteer firefighters who keep their community safe. The youngsters also delivered a rousing rendition of the late Stompin’ Tom Connors’ classic, “The Good Old Hockey Game.” Firefighters Jason Matheson, Brendan Clancy, Brent Dupuis and Shane MacWhirter answered the students’ questions and gave the kids an opportunity to try on their turnout gear. The firefighters and volunteers are preparing Christmas hampers next week.

Outdoor education class gaining traction

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The lure of the Great Outdoors is attracting growing numbers of students at Warman High School (WHS). Five years ago, an extracurricular club designed to give students an opportunity to experience outdoor activities like canoeing, camping and cross-country skiing was introduced at WHS. Since then, the Students of Warman Adventure Team (SWAT) has become one of the most popular clubs in the school, and includes students from Grades 8 through 12. Students who are really keen on the outdoors can also earn academic credits through the school’s Outdoor Education Program. Three years ago, an outdoor education class was introduced during the first semester of the school year.

This year, it’s being offered in both semesters. “It’s a great opportunity to learn about biology in the field, and to enjoy a lot of fun physical activities,” said Kale Fox-Zacharias, a Grade 11 student enrolled in both the SWAT club and the academic credit class. “It’s pretty different compared to regular academics because it’s hands-on learning about nature.” WHS teacher Peter Schmidt said there are close to 150 students involved in the program. “It’s becoming more popular all the time,” said Schmidt. “The outdoor gear, including the canoes, snowshoes and cross-country skis, are shared between the SWAT club and the academic class.” WHS teacher Sean Brandt said many students are drawn to the program because they learn skills like

camping and canoeing. “We take the students on canoe trips up north,” said Brandt. “Before we embark on those trips, though, they learn the basics of canoeing by practising on the stormwater reservoirs here in town.” Schmidt said the school has an excellent relationship with the city’s parks and community services department. ‘We use the facilities at Prairie Oasis Park and Lions Park, and also the Legends Golf Course with the cross-country ski trails in the winter,” said Schmidt. “The community has been there to help us grow the program, and were thankful to the city and the financial donations from the Warman Diamond Rodeo Committee, which have helped us engage the kids in activities that they Q3 can–doSEPTEMBER for the rest of their lives.”

Langham wastewater lagoon gets funding from feds, province By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The provincial and federal governments are kicking in a combined total of almost $4 million toward a planned $6 million wastewater treatment lagoon for the Town of Langham. Funding for the project through the New Building Canada Fund ProvincialTerritorial Infrastructure Component was announced at a news conference at the Langham town office on Monday, December 12. The provincial and federal governments are each contributing $1.948,100, or about onethird of the total $6,079,090 cost of the project. The municipality is responsible for the remaining $2,182,890 “This is a great day for the town,” said Langham Mayor John Hildebrand. “We are now one step closer to having this new facility built.” Hildebrand said the town recognized the need for a new, higher-capacity wastewater treatment lagoon several years ago, and it’s the number one priority for the community when it comes to capital projects in the coming year. “Langham’s current wastewater treatment lagoon facility is at capacity right now,” said Hildebrand. “That’s the big limiting factor when it comes to future expansion of the town. “This new project will allow future residential and commercial development to take place in Langham. Wastewater treatment capacity is an essential part of the town’s infrastructure, and

federal government and the town our government is continuing to make life better for our citizens by improving the reliability and performance of Langham’s wastewater treatment system. “Not only will this project provide increased capacity to serve residents, but it will also protect the environment and foster economic development by accommodating a

higher population.” The Town of Langham is looking to locate the new lagoon at a site northwest of the town in the RM of Corman Park. The RM council approved the town’s discretionary use application for the construction of the lagoon last fall. However, there are conditions attached to the approval that the town must comply with.

Hildebrand said the town is complying with the RM’s conditions through each step of the regulatory process. The town is also complying with provincial environmental and other regulations. Hildebrand said having funding commitments from the federal and provincial governments enables the town to begin work on a proposed detailed design for the wastewater lagoon.

The new facility will allow the town to grow to about 5,000 residents. “It will serve our needs for the foreseeable future,” he said, adding the funding partnership with senior levels of government makes the project a lot more affordable. “A project of this magnitude would be a lot more difficult without this cooperation by the federal and provincial governments,” said Hildebrand.

Biggar-Sask Valley MLA Randy Weekes made the funding announcement on behalf of Government Relations Minister Donna Harpauer and federal minister of public safety Ralph Goodale. Weekes said the provincial $1.9 million investment in the project recognizes the importance of modern infrastructure in communities. “The Langham administration and town council worked very hard to put this proposal together,” said Weekes. “By partnering with the

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca TR Petroleum (TR) is circulating a petition calling for the provincial government to review the liquor license operator for Hague. “TR would like to be the location that ends up with the license because we are ready to go ASAP. But most of all, its about this being an opportunity for the Town of Hague,” says a December 6 Facebook post by the company. TR has locations in both Martensville and Hague, as well as Saskatoon, and would like to see the liquor license moved off Highway 11 and into the town of Hague. The province invited individuals to submit ‘Request for Proposal’ (RFP) applications back in July for liquor licenses being privatized. The Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Author-

ity (SLGA) announced last month that the successful proponent in Hague was the Hague Service Centre. “We stand by that decision,” said David Morris with SLGA. “There were criteria that were used to select the best proposals and that was done, so we’re looking forward to moving forward with the successful proponents as they go through the permit process and begin work on their new facilities.” Morris said SLGA actually received more proposals across the province than anticipated. “We evaluated them and selected the best ones in each community.” Evaluation criteria examined a number of different things like a business’s experience and qualifications, their financial capacity, their timelines and those sorts of

things. Federated Co-op made some noise after the SLGA decision awarded licenses to Sobeys and not the Coop. While the Co-op netted licenses in some smaller communities, they were shut out of Regina and Saskatoon, as well as places like Kindersley, Moose Jaw, Melville and Yorkton, which all went to Sobeys. TR underwent preparation for the retail license but was denied. “We want to encourage people to visit the town of Hague and keep liquor within the town and out of the hands of people cruising the highways,” said the Facebook post. Company representatives declined comment. Residents can add their names to petitions at TR’s Hague and Martensville locations until Monday evening.

Stars shine at WHS Senior Boys tournament

By WAYNE SHIELS essenceofsask@gmail.com The Saskatoon Bethlehem Stars used speed, great passing and laser accurate shooting to dominate the Warman Wolverines Senior Boys Home Tournament at Warman High School on December 9-10. After going undefeated in

round robin play, the Stars dominated the home squad Wolverines 69-27 in the semi-finals before overcoming a determined effort by the Clavet Cougars to win 70-57 in the championship game. Warman used great team defense and consistent shooting to beat the Osler

VCA Lions 52-39 in the third place game to claim theh bronze medal. The two teams also had a very competive round robin game on Friday, with Osler VCA winning that game 37-27. Other teams competing in the tournament included the PA Carlton Crusaders and the Lumsden Devils.

Pike Lake diver competes at FINA World Jr Championships By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Following his first experience at a world championship, Rylan Wiens of Pike Lake was a bit disappointed with his performance. He finished 16th, but was honoured to represent Saskatchewan at the FINA World Junior Diving Championships from November 28 to December 4 in Kazan, Russia. On December 2, the 14-year-old took to the 10-metre platform, his specialty event. “I didn’t do too great,” said Wiens. “I kind of screwed up a few of my dives. I was hoping for bet-

ter.” He was the only junior diver from Saskatchewan in the competition, representing the Saskatoon Diving Club (SDC). Only the top 12 divers move on to the finals. Wiens said he was a little stressed beforehand. “I was pretty nervous going into the competition. I tried to handle it but it kind of got the best of me.” Tayler Whitley served as manager for Team Canada in Russia. “Rylan hasn’t been at a big international competition in a long time, and he was able to stay calm and collected and get through all of his dives so we are proud of him. It was a great experience for him

and will help him in the future.” Wiens said his last dive was probably his best. “Once I got myself under control, it was a pretty good dive to finish off.” Wiens had helped Canada finish fourth in a mixed team event earlier in the championship on November 28. “Rylan performed the dive off the tower and did quite well,” said Whitley. “He performed 407C, which is an inward three-and-ahalf tuck. He was the last to dive in the competition, which led us to a strong fourth place finish.” Wiens started diving when he was six and at-

Fencing competition draws wide participation The 2016 Militia Trophy Open fencing tournament took place at the Cosmo Civic Centre in Saskatoon on November 26 and 27. It was the only major fencing tournament in the Saskatoon area this season and is one of two important competitions in the province, out of seven. The event drew competitors from the area and further afield. John Armitage from Warman participated as well as Mike Weaver from Dalmeny, Eli Stempien from the RM of Corman Park and about nine participants from the Asquith club. Beyond that, entries came from clubs in Saskatoon, two clubs in Regina, Prince Albert, and the University of Saskatchewan. The Provincial Open fencing championships take place in Regina, March 4 and 5, 2017.

put the time and effort in, and I’m happy with how far I’ve come.” This was Wiens’ first trip to Russia and he found the weather similar to Canada. ‘But the food is not so good,”

he said. His parents were in Russia as well, but Wiens traveled with Team Canada. Now it’s back to training. “I want to do my best and then go to more international competitions like this.”

According to an annual global survey of energy-sector executives, Saskatchewan is increasingly becoming an attractive place for energy investment. Saskatchewan ranks as the 4th best jurisdiction in the world to invest in petroleum exploration and production – behind only Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas. Saskatchewan’s position is thanks in large part to a stable taxation and regulatory environment. Due to resource taxation and an efficient regulatory environment, Saskatchewan leads Canadian oil rig activity, a trend that is expected to continue in 2017. Calgary-based Crescent Point Energy is boosting their 2017 capital budget to $1.45 billion. Nearly 80%, or $1.1 billion, will be invested in Saskatchewan. They also plan to drill 600 new wells in Saskatchewan. We thank Crescent Point Energy for a strong vote of confidence in our province that will create jobs in our energy sector and support economic growth. A forced federal carbon tax would significantly harm our competitiveness in this sector and export our jobs to the U.S., our closest competitor in the industry.

“unplugged and all in”

Our government is using innovative public-private partnerships (P3s) to build 18 new schools, The Regina Bypass and a new mental health hospital in North Battleford. Our first P3, an award-winning long-term care home in Swift Current, finished on-time and on-budget this spring. 200 Saskatchewan companies represent more than 70% of businesses on the projects. The majority are located in Regina or Saskatoon with others coming from Estevan, Martensville, Moose Jaw, North Battleford, Prince Albert, Swift Current, seven small towns and three First Nations. Job creation was a top priority when our government launched P3 projects in Saskatchewan. Together these projects are responsible for supporting 12,500 construction jobs in the province. For more information on the projects, visit www.saskbuilds.ca.

Slow Down, Stay Back and Stay Safe in the Snow Zone

The return of winter weather brings reminders to slow down, stay back and stay safe when approaching snowplows. Snowplows create mini blizzards when plowing, called the Snow Zone, which can impact visibility. Drivers are asked to be patient and remember that snowplows pull over every 10 kms or so, providing an opportunity to pass. It is illegal to pass snow removal equipment at more than 60 km/hr when its lights are flashing. A new blue and amber lighting sequence was introduced last winter to distinguish snow removal equipment in operation from other vehicles also using amber lights. The latest available road condition information can be found online at www.saskatchewan.ca/highwayhotline with links to interactive maps for desktop computers and mobile devices.

A Christmas Message from Warman Elementary School, Warman community Middle School & Warman high School As the days wind down before Christmas the excitement of the students increases each day in anticipation of the Christmas break. In the midst of our preparation for Christmas, we sometimes overlook the true value of the Season. Christmas is a time when families and friends can be together to support and brighten the lives of each other. It is a time to renew our love and affection for those who are near and dear to us. We would like to extend to the parents and the members of our community our sincere thanks for the support and contributions you have made toward our schools. It is this kind of commitment that helps make Warman schools the special places they are.

On behalf of the Warman Schools, we wish all of you and your loved ones Peace and Joy this Christmas and may the true Spirit of Christmas carry you throughout the New Year!

Sincerely,
