Police chief reassures Muslim community of safety

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Following Sunday’s attack on a Muslim community in Quebec, the Saskatoon Police Service (SPS) took steps on Monday to assure the local Muslim community of their safety. Six people were killed at a mosque in Quebec City while holding evening prayers.

“We want to assure the Muslim community that the SPS is doing everything they can here, number one, to find out what’s happened in Quebec, and to see if there is any threat level at all to any of our residents here in Saskatoon,” said Chief Clive Weighill.

The service is currently not aware of any threat to the local community.

“We’ve had no intelligence at all to indicate that anybody’s safety is going to be compromised in Saskatoon.”

But when an incident like this happens, people are fearful, people wonder what might happen next, do they have to be concerned for

and law-abiding. We want to make sure they can get to the mosque safe, that they can pray safe, that their children can go to school safe and come home from school safe,” said Weighill.

That reassurance was extended to communities of any religious faith in the city.

The police service does not expect anything to hap-

pen here, but they will be providing extra patrols and some extra comfort at the mosques during their prayer services in the short term.

Weighill will visit each mosque starting tonight and into tomorrow to ensure every congregation receives reassurance of their safety from him directly.

“We feel the sorrow here in Saskatchewan,” he said.

To have this kind of incident happen in Canada is unsettling. “Many people come to Canada because of its safety its way of life.”

“I want communities of any religious faith in our city to know that Saskatoon is a safe city. We’ve been working with the RCMP and other local law enforcement agencies and we see no further threat at this point.”

‘Magical’ Princess Gala to raise funds for NICU

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@gmail.com It’s being called ‘An elegant evening of magic’ and it’s all about the kids. Not just princesses; princes are welcome too. The First Annual Crossmount Princess Gala is a fundraiser with a lot of fun packed into it. It’s happening at the new aging-in-place community of Crossmount Village, a short hop south of the city. The innovative community offers a range of events throughout the year.

Funds raised will be directed toward the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in support of the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Saskatchewan.

“Excitement is high for this fun fairytale event that will simultaneously help Saskatchewan’s tiniest patients!” says Jessica Kletke, Marketing and Business Development Director at Crossmount. “We’re raising money for a good cause while hosting a great event for kids to truly enjoy.”

The NICU is a cause that is close to Kletke’s heart. “I had my baby a month early so he had to spend just over a week in the NICU,” she says. Her son was coming along, but his lungs were being monitored.

Area residents get a look at the updated P4G land use map at a January 24 open house

P4G seeks final input on land use map

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The Partnership for Growth (P4G) presented an adjusted land use map as part of their plan for growth in the area north of Saskatoon at an Open House on January 24. Several hundred people attended the engagement session at Wanuskewin Heritage Centre to learn about the changes and ask their questions.

Douglas Olson, CEO of 02 Planning + Design conducted two overview sessions for the public about the progress the Regional Oversight Committee (ROC) has made since the last public engagement session about a year ago.

“There’s a lot of changes on these maps,” said Olson. A comparison of the previous draft and the new one was displayed. “We take

your input seriously and we respect your opinion.” The plan ROC worked to balance the interests of many people, he said.

Olson acknowledged the difficulty in planning 40, 60 or even 100 years into the future. To those who say ‘you’re just guessing’ he suggested guessing backwards. “Look at how this place has changed in the last 50 years, and what have we lost by not thinking very carefully about where to build, where not to build and so on.”

“We want growth but we want it in the right place, in the right form, with the right supporting infrastructure, and sustainable for the long term, sustainable for us and for our grandkids,” Olson said.

The map identifies agricultural, rural, commercial, industrial, urban and resi-

tually you have this urban sprawl and poor infrastructure. Starting this process now in the Saskatoon region will lead to a better region whether in terms of lifestyle, commuting, transportation, facilities or infrastructure.” It’s a more efficient way to look at servicing the region and could reduce costs to taxpayers.

Adam Tittemore, administrator for the RM of Corman Park, said the plan offers people in the region greater certainty, in the long term. A lot of people wanted to know what the impact to their land is right now.

“This is not rezoning their land, it’s not changing their immediate use of the land,” said Tittemore. It simply indicates the long-term intent for that land.

Extending the deadline allowed more time for negotiations between all parties.

“There’s been some give and take with the plan. We’re feeling positive about where the plan is today compared to a year ago,” said Tittemore. It also gave the ROC more time to address concerns from some about the first version, which they found too restrictive. “We don’t want to be a land bank.” The new plan allows people the ability to make a living on their land and not have empty farmland until some unknown future date.

Employment is factored into the plan. It also informs potential investors where they could be directing their dollars.

The process is nearing completion. The ROC will take the feedback from the open house, make any changes, and bring it to the municipalities for review and final confirmation in April.

Opinion

Is Minister Morneau planning tax hikes by stealth?

In last year’s federal budget, Finance Minister Bill Morneau announced that the Liberal government would embark on a review of federal tax credits. Many groups – including the Canadian Taxpayers Federation - voiced their support.

It’s not hard to see why. Canada’s tax code is a beast; the Income Tax Act alone is 3,314 pages long. Simplification is a good idea. Canada’s tax code is festooned with all kinds of special carve-outs and credits which make it frustratingly complex, inefficient and nearly impossible for a regular citizen to file their own taxes. And while the Liberals have already eliminated certain Harper-era tax credits – such as the children’s fitness and arts credits – they have also introduced some of their own, including a school-supplies credit for teachers. Much work remains to be done.

Unfortunately, there are worrying signs that Minister Morneau’s real intent is to use “simplification” as political cover to hike taxes by stealth for millions of Canadians.

Among the biggest proposals being floated are changes to make Canadians pay taxes on the value of employer-provided health and dental plans. Currently, they are non-taxable benefits. The policy reasoning behind this is clear: on the employee side, they’re not actually getting paid cash, so it’s not really income, and on the employer side, by making these benefits non-taxable, employers have extra incentive to provide them (as they don’t require additional Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance contributions).

All of this results in more Canadians having health and dental benefits through their employer. On this front the policy seems to be achieving its objective: according to the Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association, in 1990, only 50 per cent of employed Canadians had employer-provided health benefits; by 2015, this figure had risen to 75 per cent.

Perhaps the best argument for a change in how health and dental insurance are treated is one of fairness: under the current system, those who received these benefits from employers get a break, while those who don’t receive them from employers and must to purchase them out of pocket do not. The solution, the government proposes, should be to make all such benefits taxable, in exchange for introducing a partial tax credit available to all Canadians.

There are at least two big problems with this proposal.

First, it would still mean a tax hike for millions of Canadians, including those of limited means. Second, it would likely result in fewer Canadians having supplementary health benefits, as some employers would drop their plans and those affected are either unwilling or unable to then purchase their own. It is hard to see how either of these are desirable outcomes.

While identifying a legitimate inequity, the government has overlooked the fact there is more than one way to level the playing field: rather than forcing everyone to pay tax on these benefits, the government could simply introduce a new tax credit (or expand an existing one) for those purchasing health insurance out of pocket.

One possibility is expanding the Medical Expenses Tax Credit (METC), which gives a credit to Canadians with hefty medical bills. Lowering the credit threshold – currently, Canadians can only claim a credit if they spent over $2,237 on medical expenses – would provide additional relief for those buying their own health insurance.

The catch, of course, is that such an move would reduce the amount of tax paid to the government. If you’re a money-hungry politician, this is framed as a bad thing.

A cynic might even argue that it suggests the governments’ commitment to policy fairness is a lesser concern than its fear of loosening its grip on Canadians’ wallets.

Accordingly, Minister Morneau should tread carefully. Simplification of the tax code is a good goal for the government – but it is not the only goal. Above all, the government should not exploit “simplification” as a convenient pretext to sneak in tax hikes on millions of Canadians. – Toronto Sun, January 20, 2017

SUBSCRIPTIONS

The Gazette is distributed free of charge to residents in the area. Subscriptions outside the market area within Canada are available at an annual rate of $109.00+GST.

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

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 WHO was involved, WHAT was the event, WHEN and WHERE the event occurred and WHY the event was significant.

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. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the final outcome of the photo in print. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a builtin zoom lens extended will capture “grainy” images that do not reproduce well. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot.

“Presentation” photos typically don’t work well if there are too many people side-by-side in the frame. If there are up to four people in the photo, have them as close together as possible and, if more than four, have the front row seated and the back row standing. Remember taking a picture facing into the sun or bright light will produce poor quality images.

property.”

So far, so good, as far as my application goes.

But now it gets a little iffy.

The candidate must also be a “resident” of the province for which he or she is appointed. And the current vacancies are for New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and, of course, Ontario. Saskatchewan is apparently already well-represented.

But wait a second. If Senator Mike Duffy can get a nod and a wink from the powersthat-be after his bald-faced claim that he lived all those years in Prince Edward Island despite having a permanent Ottawa address, then surely that residency rule isn’t very strictly enforced.

The applicant must also demonstrate, and here’s where it gets amusing, that they bring a strictly nonpartisan perspective to the Senate. Candidates who are glaringly partisan hacks won’t be summarily rejected out of hand, however, as the eligibility requirements state that “past political activities would not disqualify an applicant.”

Whew. For a minute there I thought they were serious.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Clark’s Crossing Gazette welcomes Letters to the Editor regarding topics of interest to our readers. The Gazette reserves the right to edit letters for brevity and clarity.

The applicant must also have some clue about the legislative process, the regional representation and the so-called “sober second thought” role of the Senate and yadda-yadda-yadda.

Okay, check.

Individuals must also demonstrate “outstanding personal qualities” including high standards of ethics and integrity.

Jeepers, you mean all the time? Every day? Do any of us mere humans meet that criteria consistently?

It’s looking more and more apparent that my application is likely to be tossed, especially when it comes to the final criteria: “Priority consideration will be given to applicants who represent Indigenous peoples and linguistic, minority and ethnic communities...”

As an old, cranky, unilingual English-speaking guy whose farming ancestors came from Ireland, Wales and Minnesota, that pretty much rules me out.

Oh well, the Senate is probably going to be abolished some time soon anyway, and besides, who wants to live in Ottawa?

Night landings challenging for pilots

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca In the cold, clear night air, the sound of an incoming Shock Trauma Air Rescue Service (STARS) helicopter becomes more distinct; and the high-intensity headlights gleam brighter as the craft flies over Martensville’s eastern edge. The chopper gradually drops lower as it approaches a wooded area just outside the city limits.

A two-way radio crackles as the pilot notifies the waiting firefighters from Martensville and Dalmeny that show-time has arrived.

The big red AW139 helicopter circles several times before beginning its descent at the Martensville Fire Rescue training grounds, guided by two red LED batons in the hands of a volunteer fire crew stationed in the centre of a 29-meter square landing zone between two storage buildings.

But before it drops far, the helicopter lifts back up and begins another circle. The pilot has determined the landing space is too narrow.

It has to be moved.

A few minutes later, the chopper once again descends, this time into the centre of a 36-meter square zone staked out in a flat area.

As the helicopter approaches the ground, the immediate area is suddenly aglow in a surreal misty curtain of red, green and white light. The snow stirred up by the chopper’s blades reduces visibility to virtually zero. But inside the cockpit, the pilot’s nightvision goggles allow him to pick out the faint red glow of LED batons and the reflective jackets and helmets of the fire crew.

A few minutes later, the STARS helicopter lifts off and circles around before another landing.

The night landings, which began about 6:30 p.m. and lasted until about 10:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 25, were among several training sessions aimed at allowing STARS pilots to gain certification using night vision goggles. The session also provided invaluable experience for volunteer firefighters from Martensville and Dalmeny in guiding the craft down to a safe landing. A similar night landing training exercise took place just outside Langham on Tuesday, January 25.

“It’s a very important component in the STARS pilots’ training,” said Luc Duval, a flight paramedic and community education-liaison officer with STARS, based in Saskatoon. “The pilots have annual night vision goggle

training that is a requirement of Transport Canada.

STARS is the only civilian service that flies with night vision goggles.

“It allows us to land anywhere at any time,” he added. “But in order to do it effectively, it’s important to have a ground crew that is

able to secure the area for a safe landing.”

Duval said STARS has done night vision goggle training for its pilots for several years. But last winter, the air ambulance serCONTINUED ON PAGE 15

Kinsmen Club donates to local air cadets

the 574 Air Cadet Squadron in Martensville, and the nonprofit community service organization has pledged to remain a major sponsor of the

cadets in years to come.

“We’ve come to an agreement with them (the Kinsmen Club) over a certain amount of money per year go-

Emergency Response Team program expands base

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Warman Emergency Response Team (WERT) program began its second intake of volunteers at an information meeting on Saturday, January 28.

Launched last winter under the umbrella of the city’s Emergency Measures Organization (EMO), WERT is designed to train civilian volunteers to provide assistance to emergency services personnel in the event of a large-scale disaster.

WERT is modelled on the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program, which began in Los Angeles in 1985 and now has over 2,600 chapters across the United States.

Warman EMO Coordinator Randy Meginbir said the WERT program currently has 29 certified volunteers, and officials are hoping to increase that number over the coming months.

“We have two streams for volunteers,” said Meginbir.

“There’s a place for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or physical abilities. We encourage anyone who is interested to apply.”

Meginbir said the WERT program has “two streams” for volunteer members. One stream is a “boots-on-theground” search and rescue team that can step in and assist fire, police and paramedics in assessing damage, clearing streets of debris, helping the injured with first aid, and other tasks.

The second stream is an “evacuation and volun-

teer reception centre” team that provides logistical support for evacuees and rescue personnel. Meginbir and Warman Assistant EMO Coordinator Doug Giordano are in charge of the search and rescue teams; while Coralie Bueckert, a senior supervisor with the City of Warman, is in charge of the evacuation and reception centre teams. The Legends Centre has been designated as the primary evacuation centre, while the Brian King Centre is the alternate evacuation centre.

Meginbir told the January 28 meeting that Saskatchewan is not immune to natural or man-made disasters.

“Last year Fort McMurray experienced a devastating fire,” said Meginbir.

“That dominated the national news coverage for weeks.

But there were also other instances of localized disasters, such as severe flooding in Arborfield.

“In fact, over the past four years alone, 82 communities in Saskatchewan have declared a state of emergency.

That means they had a situation well beyond what their normal emergency services capacity was able to handle.”

Meginbir said when a disaster happens, “mass chaos” inevitably follows.

“In a matter of seconds, things can change completely,” he said. “That’s why it’s important to have a plan ahead of time, and to have people who are trained and able to step in when needed.”

Trained community response team volunteers increase the capacity of reg-

ular protective services responders, who would otherwise be quickly overwhelmed by the sheer volume of calls and scale of the disaster, he said.

He noted that it is also important for residents to be able to “provide for themselves for at least 72 hours” in the event of a natural disaster. A supply of fresh water, food, flashlights, batteries and other essentials should be part of a kit that is stocked and ready. Households should also have a post-disaster communication plan so family members can notify each other of their whereabouts.

“Normally, when you call 911, you expect help in a matter of minutes,” he said.

“But in a disaster situation, it could be 72 hours before that help arrives.”

The second round of WERT training modules begins February 13 at the Brian King Centre, with a session on “disaster preparedness,” and continues till late June for both the search and rescue, and evacuation and volunteer reception centre streams.

Applications to become a WERT volunteer are available at both Warman City Hall and the Legends Centre and are accepted throughout the year.

WERT volunteers are supplied with essential equipment provided through corporate donations.

Bantam championship showcases top teams

VIPERS DOMINATE WINGS

WAYNE SHIELS | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Robert Pizzey of the Sask Valley Vipers battles for the puck against Steven Kesslering of the Weyburn Crescent Point Wings during a Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League game at the Legends Centre in Warman on Saturday, January 28. The Vipers won the game 6-1. The Vipers are gearing up for the Western Canadian Bantam AAA Hockey Championship tournament slated for Warman and Martensville at the end of March. While they have already qualified for the tournament as the host team, they are hoping to earn a berth as the provincial champion.

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The countdown for the 2017 Western Canadian Bantam Hockey Championship tournament is underway.

Slated for Warman and Martensville March 30 to April 2, the five-team roundrobin event features the top bantam-age players in the four western provinces.

“A lot of the kids playing in this tournament will be ones that we’ll be seeing in the Western Hockey League (WHL) in a few years,” said Mark Campbell, co-chair of the organizing committee for the tournament. “There will be no shortage of scouts there from WHL teams.”

Campbell said this is a draft year for graduating bantam-age players, and the tournament provides an opportunity for them to showcase their abilities in the hope of being selected by a major junior WHL club.

“Getting drafted isn’t the be-all and end-all for play-

ers, of course, but it’s definitely a stepping stone for some of them,” said Campbell.

The tournament will bring together the provincial Bantam AAA champion teams from British Columbia, Alberta and Manitoba. Saskatchewan, which does not have a Bantam AAA league, will send its provincial Bantam AA champion as well as a host team.

The Saskatchewan Valley Vipers, based in Warman and Martensville, have already qualified to play in the tournament by virtue of being the host team. However, Vipers coach Shaun Priel has gone on record as saying the team is hoping to earn a berth as provincial champions. If that happens, the second-place team in the Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League (SBAAHL) will take on the role of host team.

Campbell said the organizing committee submitted a

Dalmeny Fury come from behind to win

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Dalmeny Fury overcame a three-goal deficit to defeat the visiting Tisdale Ramblers 7-5 in Fort Carlton Hockey League (FCHL) action in Dalmeny on Friday, January 27.

Tisdale outplayed Dalmeny early in the game, scoring three straight goals in the first half of the opening period.

“We just came out flat, it wasn’t us. (Then) we just got our feet moving, played better defence, kept a guy high so they wouldn’t get those odd man rushes, and that’s all you needed to do to shut them down,” said Dalmeny player Chris Henry.

Later in the period, Henry and Ian Pekrul scored goals for the Fury and Dalmeny only trailed 3-2 after 20 minutes of play.

Dalmeny carried the momentum from the end of the first period into the second and outscored the Ramblers 3-0, which gave the Fury a 5-3 lead. Henry scored another two goals, as he earned the hat trick, and Justin Edin had the other goal. “(We) just kept working hard, shooting the puck lots, getting it deep (in Tisdale’s zone), out playing them,

skating hard mostly and the breaks went our way. (We had) six unanswered goals, so it was nice,” Henry said.

Earlier in the game, the Tisdale goalie seemed to have Dalmeny’s number, as he robbed a couple of players from scoring a goal, with the glove. But as the game went on, the Fury was able to have success in the scoring department.

“You got to keep getting

good shots on (net) and make him (the goalie) work.

When he gets tired that’s when the goals go in. That’s what happened we kept shooting and kept making him work,” Henry said.

Dalmeny led 5-3 going into the final frame.

Even though Tisdale scored two goals in the CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

joint bid from Warman and Martensville to host the 2017 tournament. The committee received confirmation in December, 2015 that the bid was successful. To get a feel for what was involved, committee members took in the 2016 tournament in Okotoks, Alberta.

“It was a good learning experience,” said Campbell.

“We viewed their facilities and got a first-hand look at how the tournament was organized. It’s a big event, but we’re confident it will go well.”

Blocks of rooms in both major hotels in Martensville and Warman have been reserved for teams and officials participating in the tournament, said Campbell, adding he expects local restaurants and businesses will also benefit from the influx of visitors.

He noted that a tournament of this calibre would likely not have been possible ten years ago. But the growth of the minor hockey program in both cities, coupled with the increase in amenities, has resulted in ideal conditions for hosting an elite-level competition like this.

Campbell said excitement is building as the event draws closer. He pointed out this is the first time it’s been held in this part of the province.

Ticket packages are available for the entire tournament, and also for single games, said Campbell. Full details are available on the tournament website at wcbhc2017.ca .

Warman karate kids take medals at competition

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Jacob Roberts is one of a handful of Warman kids who snagged a medal at a recent martial arts competition.

The Warman Kuro Tora Dojo Karate Club formed in September, but already, the kids have reached competitive level. “As parents we thought this was going to be an uphill battle, but the kids did amazing,” said Jacob’s mom, Amanda Roberts.

The Third Annual Tomodachi Open tournament took place at the Dalmeny High School on January 21. “Other teams had between 20 and 30 kids. The Warman club had four kids and they came back with seven medals,” said Roberts. She estimates the event drew upwards of 150 to 200 participants and referees. “The gym was packed!” The parents were upstairs overlooking the gym from the bleachers.

Each of the categories has different levels of participation. Warman participants placed as follows: Josh Tonge: First in Weapons Sparring, Third in Point Sparring; Zoe Hale: First in Kata, Third in Points Sparring; Izzy Soles: First in Weapons Sparring, Third in Kata; Jacob Roberts: Third in Weapons Sparring. One of the Dads also got a medal: Steve Tonge placed third in Light Kickboxing.

Fury fighting to make playoffs

Continued from page 8 third period, Dalmeny also netted two goals. Joel Cardinal-Shultz and Edin were the Dalmeny goal scorers.

Overall, Henry thought that the whole team contributed to the win.

“Everyone contributed on the score sheet. There was good goaltending, good defence, good offence, so mostly a team effort I would say,” Henry said Dalmeny concluded the season with an 8-2 win over the Wakaw Lakers on Jan. 28.

The Fury finished last in the FCHL standings, but will play in a win-or-gohome playoff game against Tisdale, in Wakaw on Wednesday, February 1. The winner of that game will play the Hague Royals in a playoff series.

For the win-or-go-home game, Henry believes that the team just needs to play hard to earn the victory.

“We need to do the same thing we did tonight (Jan. 27) and just keep working hard and be ready to play, that’s the main thing. And don’t come out slow as we did today and get down by three like that. It’s going to be a lot harder (to win) and that game will be a lot tenser than tonight,” Henry said.

Warman’s Kuro Tora Dojo Karate Club took four kids to their first compeition and scored seven medals.

Diana (Left: teachers helper), Zoe Hale, Joshua Tonge, Jacob Roberts, Izzy Soles, Steve Tonge Point sparring involves the fists with gloves on and is just touch, it’s not designed to hurt anybody.

The weapons used in weapons sparring are foam with a solid centre, but again, nobody gets hurt.

Jacob was previously involved with a different martial art, but on registration day, he saw the Kuro Tora Dojo club being promoted and the sparring weapons displayed on their table, and wanted to give it a try. “He went to this new class to check it out and he absolutely loved it,” said Roberts.

The Warman club has about eight to 10 regular members and is working to increase their numbers.

Roberts says the kids find the instructors engaging and fun. Instructor Shihan Shawn Silver has his Fifth Degree Black Belt in karate and Third Degree Black Best in kick boxing. Kyoshi (Grandmaster) Wolfgang Manicke supervises Silver.

“It’s a hard workout, its

not for the faint of heart,” said Roberts. “The kids come home dripping with sweat every night but they have so much fun. The instructors are amazing.”

She has an older son who enjoys the sport but chooses not to compete.

The invitational is not the kind of event where everyone gets a participation medal she said. “You have to work your buns off. My son is super proud of his achievement.” Jacob could almost ‘take her down’ except he doesn’t quite have the height yet. “He’s only 10 and he has a six-pack!”

The Dalmeny event qualified participants for points in the Saskatchewan Martial Arts Association (SMAA) provincial circuit. Jacob will be attending some upcoming tournaments, which are located in Prince Albert, Yorkton, Medicine Hat, Nipawin, Red Deer, Regina and Saskatoon. Provincials take place in Regina in June.

FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY

CAPRICORN December 22– January 19

Capricorn, do not beat yourself up for little mistakes you might make. No one is keeping a tally, so just go with the flow instead of trying to control every little thing.

AQUARIUS January 20– February 18

Wishing and hoping for dreams to come true will only get you so far, Aquarius. You must take certain steps to make plans come to fruition. If you must, go it alone.

PISCES February 19– March 20

Pisces, give an important decision ample consideration.

A solid foundation of careful thought will make you feel more confident.

ARIES March 21– April 19

It may hard to separate reality from fiction this week, Aries. You need to find a way to distinguish the two so you can move forward with confidence.

TAURUS April 20– May 20

Your heart is telling you to aim for the highest peak because anything is possible if you put your mind to it. It might be a bit scary, but you won’t know unless you try.

GEMINI May 21– June 21

Your reputation will precedes you, Gemini. That reputation may elicit positive feelings in some and negative sentiments in others. Don’t let the detractors get to you.

sudoku

CANCER June 22– July 22

You may notice a strange vibe in the air this week, Cancer. You might feel your intuition kick into high gear. Trusts your instincts on this one and see where it goes.

LEO July 23– August 22

Leo, you have a generous heart and you often see the good in all of those around you. This can make you an excellent friend for anyone to have on their side.

VIRGO August 23– September 22

You may become preoccupied with what others think of you. Try not worry so much about what others think. If you’re comfortable with yourself, that will reflect positively.

LIBRA September 23– October 22

It may be difficult to pull yourself out of a slump this week, Libra. However, if you surround yourself with upbeat friends, the week will end up being positive.

SCORPIO October 23– November 21

Scorpio, try not to drift on autopilot this week; otherwise, you may miss crucial details along the way. Try to be engaged even if it is challenging at this juncture.

SAGITTARIUS November 22– December 21

Sagittarius, make extra time for your immediate family and other loved ones this week. Enjoy the warmth and laughter, and embrace the companionship that family provides.

Nic Slobodian of the Martensville Marauders tries to keep control of the puck while a Kerrobert Tigers player is draped all over him during a Midget A Provincial Playoff game in Martensville January 28 under us a little bit and give them a little more of a push back that we didn’t have it in the first two periods,” Ryan said.

The Marauders played a lot better in the third period, spending less time in their own zone and more time in the Tigers’ zone as Jamison Ryan netted one for Martensville.

Martensville has a 3-goal deficit to overcome in the two-game, total-goals series, and Game 2 is in Kerrobert on Sunday, February 12. Ryan wants the team to play the way they did in the third period of Game 1.

“We’re still within fight-

ing distance … and we know what we need to do to battle them. And we have to do that from the start.” Ryan said. “I’m a believer (in) that hard working teams might get a bounce, or a break to build some momentum.”

For Game 2 Ryan said he wants to see the team get the puck out of its zone on the first try because they weren’t doing that in Game 1, which put a lot off pressure on the defence.

“We’re playing in their rink, we’re down by three, and so we’re the underdog.

And the underdog sometimes finds a way (to win),” Ryan said.

Pee Wee A Wildcats tune up for provincial playoff round

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Warman Wildcats Pee Wee A squad is gearing up for the first round of provincial playoffs.

The Wildcats took the first step toward defending their 2015-16 provincial championship by downing the Battlefords Barons 3-0 in an exhibition game in Warman on Thursday, January 26.

Warman takes on Humboldt in the first round of playoffs, with the opening game scheduled for Monday, February 13 in Humboldt.

Game 2 of the series will be at the Legends Centre in Warman on Saturday, February 18.

The Wildcats dominated

the game against Battlefords on January 26, outshooting their opponents 37-17 over three periods. Madison Evans connected in the first frame, Brody Beason added another in the second, and Rhett Fischer rounded out the Warman scoring in the final period. Wildcats goaltender Nikolas Hrapchak, despite not being very busy most of the night, made several big saves to preserve the shutout.

Wildcats head coach Bevin Guenther said it’s a tough process picking players for the provincial team from the two Warman Pee Wee A league teams.

“We’ve been working on this for quite a while,” said

Guenther. “It’s complicated, and there are a lot of talented players to choose from.

“But now that the team is set and we’re playing games, it’s exciting.”

Guenther said the opening game against Humboldt will determine if the team is ready for the challenge.

So far, the kids are playing with a lot of energy and determination.

“Hockey is fun, and it’s more fun when you win,” he said.

The Barons have a bye until the second round of playoffs,when they take on the winner of the Martensville-Meadow Lake series, which begins February 9 and concludes February 12.

vice began joint training with local volunteer fire departments around Saskatoon.

“Because they’re so close to Saskatoon, they often don’t have much time to prepare for us if we’re called out,” said Duval. “So if they can become familiar with our procedures ahead of time, it makes it quicker and safer in the event of a real emergency. It’s all about practical training and giving them hands-on experience.”

Duval said the grounds

crew needs to be aware of potential hazards that can be thrown up in the wash of wind from the rotors. They must also be mindful of other factors like wind direction.

“Helicopters like to land and take off facing into the wind,” said Duval. “It provides greater control and allows the chopper to use less power in gaining lift.”

The training improves communication and helps reduce the possibility of mistakes, said Duval.

“In a crisis situation, it’s easier to overlook the small details,” he said. “Practical

experience helps give a person confidence.”

During Wednesday’s practice session, the landing zone was moved four times.

During the nine practice sessions that night, a total of three Saskatoon STARS pilots went through their paces using the night vision goggles.

Duval said STARS is looking to have similar training sessions next winter in other communities within the Saskatoon region.

Wildcats strike first in Midget A provincial hockey playoffs

By MACKENZIE HEINTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Warman Midget A Wildcats gained the edge in its provincial playoff series against the Coteau Canucks from Dinsmore, winning 6-1, in Game 1 on Sunday, January 29 at the Warman Legends Centre.

It was important for Warman to earn the victory but even more crucial to win by multiple goals, as the Wildcats have a 5-0 lead going into the final game of the two-game, best total goals series.

“It’s good to have a lead going into an away game because we know they’re going to play even harder in their own barn,” said Wildcats coach Luc Beaulac.

The Wildcats took control early in the game, and scored three unanswered goals in the first period. Jordan Perrin scored twice and Eric Harms also netted one.

Having that early lead helped the team ease into the game and come out with the win.

“Getting an early lead, for sure, gives the boys confidence and gets them working even harder,” Beaulac said.

Coteau scored its only goal of the game 19 seconds into the middle frame and it looked like the momentum shifted toward the Canucks.

The Wildcats were able to hold on to their lead in the third period and even got an insurance goal from Jaden Day. Warman outshot the Canucks 45-23, which was a big part of the win.

Overall, Beulac thought that the whole team played well to contribute to the win.

“I think it was a good team win. We stayed out of the penalty box, which is possible, and we had scoring from all three lines and everybody played hard. And we had great goaltending, which is always good.”

“Limiting the penalties is definitely a huge factor, and again if we get strong goaltending over there (In Coteau) we got another chance to win another game,” Beaulac said.
