Many of the people who attend the Hague Open House on Tuesday, February 28, were intrigued by the Skyline Heights residential development that will be constructed in the community

New subdivision will add to growth in Hague

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca A new residential subdivision set to begin development this summer attracted a considerable amount of interest during the Hague Open House on Tuesday, February 28.

“It’s (the open house) a good way to let our residents in the community know more about this development here because it’s going to be huge when it takes off,” said Hague Mayor Pat Wagner.

“We wanted the residents to know what’s going on (with the development) ... take a look at the pictures, and say any input they might have, that kind of thing.”

The Skyline Heights residential development will be located west of Diefenbaker Avenue. It is planned to consist of 145 lots.

The project is spearheaded by Third Rock Developments and owner Ruben Dyck, along with engineers were at the open house to answer questions.

Dyck said the planning stages for the residential development began two and a half years ago and the ground breaking for Phase 1 of the project will begin by mid-summer.

Fifteen lots will be available as part of Phase 1 and Dyck wants to have some of the lots ready for the fall.

Dyck also mentioned that before they move on to the next phase, he has to sell the 15 lots.

“I think the first 15 will sell pretty quick because there’s been nothing available for so long and after that it’ll probably slow down some,” Dyck said.

The open house was an opportunity for residents of the town to converse with town council and to get answers to the questions they had regarding the community.

Wagner said the event was a great way for people to gather and mingle.

“Sometimes they don’t have a chance to phone the town office or they don’t get a chance to see a councillor

on the street. If they have any other type of concern or an issue this is a good time to let us know. We don’t always see everything, and it’s good to get info,” Wagner said.

Affinity Credit Union was also at the open house to provide more information about their organization.

The open house informed people about the services in town such as the Hague Fire Department and the Hague First Responders.

“They’re always looking for people from the community ... to help out,” Wagner said. “I know to become a first responder you have to take that course. It’s a big commitment.”

Going forward, Wagner said that the council will discuss having more open houses.

“I think it will be a good idea to have an open house (regularly), just to come talk. Maybe we’ll have the vendors back again,” Wagner said. “We like to hear from the community, we really do.”

Rollerball Thursday March 30 @ 7:30pm

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Victims of crime in the Rosthern area are now able to access much-needed help from the provincial Victim Services program.

Gateway Regional Victim Services (GRVS) officially opened its doors on Wednesday, March 1, with offices in Prince Albert, Meadow Lake and Spiritwood.

GRVS serves 11 RCMP detachment areas, including Big River, Blaine Lake, Green Lake, Loon Lake, Meadow Lake, Prince Albert, Pierceland, Rosthern, Shellbrook, Spiritwood and Wakaw. There are 17 First Nations reserves within those detachment areas, so in addition to a full-time Coordinator and two Assistant Coordinators, the GRVS also has a full-time Indigenous Liaison Officer, Chelsea Naytowhow.

GRVS Coordinator Laegan Meyers said this is the first time the service has been available in the Rosthern RCMP detachment area.

Communities in the 10 other RCMP detachment areas were previously covered under either the Prince Albert Regional Victim Services or Meadow Lake Victim Services umbrellas. Both those agencies ceased operations two years ago.

“Gateway Regional Victim Services was created after Prince Albert Regional and Meadow Lake Victim Services were shut down,” said Meyers. “The Ministry of Justice wanted to create one big organization instead of two smaller ones.”

The two-year gap in victim services has meant there is some rebuilding work to do in terms of reestablishing connections within communities and recruiting volunteers, Meyers noted.

“I started at the end of September, 2016; and the

Make & Take

rest of the staff started in January and February of this year,” she said. “March 1 was our official first day of operation. So we are brand new.

“It took us a couple of months to make sure we had everything in place before we stated taking referrals. But we’re now offering full services throughout the whole region.”

Meyers works primarily out of the GRVS office housed in the Prince Albert RCMP detachment building; but also devotes one day a week at the Rosthern RCMP detachment office and one day at the Wakaw RCMP detachment office.

The Victim Services program was established under provincial legislation in 1995, and is funded by the Ministry of Justice.

Meyers said the role of GRVS and other Victim Services agencies is to support victims of crime by providing whatever assistance is needed.

“Victims often feel like they are the forgotten people in the criminal justice system,” she said. “The main focus of the system is on the offender. We have police that arrest the offender, jails that house the offender, probation officers that watch the offender and social workers that work with the offender so they don’t re-offend.

Victim Services was created specifically to help victims navigate the court system and accompany them to court if necessary; to refer them to appropriate agencies that can help them deal with emotional and physical trauma or whatever other needs they have.”

Meyers said the only place where victims of crime are allowed to voice their opinion or make their voice heard in the court system is during a victim impact statement.

She noted that the police aren’t always able to take the time to work with victims of crime.

“Our role is also to be a liaison between victims and the police,” she said. “We can keep people updated on developments in their case and help them prepare for whatever the next step is.”

Meyers is encouraging people to volunteer with the Victim Services organization.

“Applications can be picked up at any of the RCMP detachment offices, or people can download a PDF version of the application from our website at www.grvs.ca,” she said.

Saskatchewan Most Attractive Place in World to Invest in Mining

Last week Saskatchewan was named the world’s most attractive place to invest in mining, according to the latest survey of global mining companies.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE | THURSDAY, MARCH 9, 2017 PG. 4

Sensible regulations and tax rates lifted our province to the top.

While Saskatchewan secured top spot as the most attractive place to invest in mining, the survey found that after announcing a new carbon tax, “unattractive policies” and “regulatory overlap” have sent Alberta’s once favourable ranking plummeting from 7th in 2015 to 47th in 2016.

We will work hard to protect the Saskatchewan Advantage and continue to stand up for the province that has attracted investment from all over the world, creating jobs and opportunities.

Economy Showing Positive Signs

While the slowdown in the resource sector has impacted government revenues for nearly three years, oil prices are starting to rebound, and there are signs that mining in Saskatchewan is starting to recover, even though challenges remain.

There are positive signs of confidence in our province’s resilient and increasingly diversified economy.

Both manufacturing and retail sales in Saskatchewan are up and leading the nation. And, for the first time in the province’s history, average weekly earnings were above $1,000 in December.

While there is light on the horizon, commodity prices are expected to remain lower for longer and that hurts the government’s bottom line.

Government Committed to Meeting Fiscal Challenges

This fiscal year, non-renewable resource revenues are down about $1.2 billion from 2014 levels.

Weak resource revenues combined with higher than expected crop insurance payments and spending pressure in several ministries have eroded our financial position.

Some of that spending pressure arising from our growing population. Saskatchewan has grown by nearly 65,000 people since 2011 and by 130,000 since 2006.

Despite our government’s efforts to save money, which include reduced travel and a freeze on non-essential hiring, our deficit has grown to an estimated $1.2 billion.

This situation has prompted some in Saskatchewan, including our opposition to ask the question: “where did all the money go?” The short answer is, it went back to Saskatchewan people. * $6 billion in tax relief; * $20 billion in infrastructure investment; and * $2.2 billion to reduce the operating debt of the province.

Our government inherited a massive infrastructure deficit that needed to be addressed. Together we are building new schools, hospitals and long-term care homes. Many more communities have received repairs and upgrades, improved highways and vital infrastructure we all count on.

In addition, Saskatchewan people have benefited from reductions in property taxes, small business taxes, and income taxes.

Municipalities have received a 177% increase in revenue sharing – over $1.9 billion – which they have used to deliver better services.

The provincial operating debt has also been reduced by 32% from 2007, saving millions of dollars in annual debt serving costs.

These investments have helped create the economic strength that has kept Saskatchewan’s unemployment rate below the national average, with 60,000 more people working in the province today than in 2007.

At a time when other governments are attempting to rationalize permanent deficits, our government is taking a different approach. We will deal with our revenue challenges today and the process won’t be pain-free.

Difficult decisions need to be made. As we make those decisions, we will be careful not to shock the economy just as it is recovering. We will also work to ensure that we don’t diminish the public services that provide quality of life in Saskatchewan.

Fortunately, we are better positioned today to deal with difficulties. Our economy is more resilient, diversified and stronger than ever. Working together with optimism and determination, we will meet the current fiscal challenge and strengthen the province for years to come.

Local boy Dief was the Chief for a while Back in April 1965, Lester Pearson was making his way along a crowded Ottawa street with a bunch of friends.

They were celebrating Pearson’s re-election as the head of a federal Liberal minority government.

They stepped off a curb at a pedestrian crossing, only to be waved back by a policeman who was directing traffic. “Hold on, there,” said the cop. “Wait for the traffic to stop completely.”

One of Pearson’s political aides responded: “Say, there, do you know who you’re talking to? This is Canada’s greatest Prime Minister!”

“Sorry, Mr. Diefenbaker,” replied the policeman. “But you still have to wait.”

*** John Diefenbaker was born in Neustadt, Ontario in 1895, but he was a westerner through and through; the first prairie kid to make it to the Prime Minister’s office. He was top dog in Ottawa from 1958 to 1963; riding a wave of populist sentiment to the biggest electoral landslide in Canadian history at the time, only to be ignominiously done in by backroom wrangling within his own party.

A man of many contradic-

tions; he led the federal Progressive Conservative Party from 1956 to 1967, and was the epitome of the Red Tory.

A staunch free enterpriser, he was also a human rights crusader. His government passed Canada’s first Bill of Rights in 1958 and extended the vote to First Nations Canadians.

He also had a vindictive, petty and cantankerous side.

But then, what successful politician doesn’t?

Since his passing in 1979, Dief is remembered as something of a political legend.

Over the years, the memory of Dief’s nasty edges have worn off and people of a certain generation tend to look back fondly on the late 1950s and early 1960s when Diefenbaker was at the helm of the nation. Maybe it’s because, as prairie folks, we can say with pride that he was one of us.

rable song called “Dief will be the Chief again”. The chorus went: “Dief is the Chief, Dief is the Chief, Dief will be the Chief again, Everybody’s happy back in ‘57 and nobody’s happy since then. There was law in the land, order in the home, swimming in the river back then, But I know in my heart that Dief will be the Chief and a dollar worth a dollar again.”

The song soared to Number One on CKBI Radio in Prince Albert, but got limited airplay everywhere else. You can listen to the song online at Bob Bossin’s “Old folksinger’s homepage” at www3.telus. net/oldfolk/dief.htm .

It was no surprise Prince Albert embraced the musical tribute to their favourite son. They loved Diefenbaker, electing him to represent them in Ottawa continuously from 1953 to 1979. Prior to 1953, though, PA voters were not so nice to him. He went down to defeat in federal and provincial elections in 1925, 1926, and 1938; not to mention losing the election for Mayor of PA in 1933.

Diefenbaker’s prairie roots run deep in this area.

A replica of the family’s farm home is one of the buildings in the outdoor Borden Museum. The Diefenbakers moved to Saskatoon in 1910 and earned money as a newsboy. He even sold a paper to Prime Minister Sir Wilfred Laurier (a statue in Saskatoon commemorates the occasion). After gradudating from Nutana Colleagiate, John was a member of the first class at the newly-established campus of the University of Saskatchewan, and wrote for the student newspaper, The Sheaf. After enlisting in the army in 1916, he received his basic training in England and was sent back to Canada in 1917. He returned to the U of S, where he graduated with a law degree in 1918.

He established his first practice in Wakaw in 1919 and in 1924 opened his law office in Prince Albert.

John and Olive Diefenbaker are buried beside the Diefenbaker Canada Centre on the U of S campus river. A fitting resting place for a legendary prairie populist.

Young bluegrass bands light up Barn Playhouse

The Northern Lights Bluegrass and Old-Tyme Music Festival is still a few months away, but you can get a taste of what’s in store at a special concert this Sunday, March 12 at the Barn Playhouse.

The “Bluegrass Blast” features the Slocan Ramblers, a four-piece band (Frank Evans, Adrian Gross, Darryl Poulsen and Alastair Whitehead) from Ontario that’s been described as “a leading light of Canada’s roots music scene.”

On the same bill is In

With the Old, which includes Ellen Froese-Kooijenga, Jaxon Lalonde and Kasia Thorlakson. The band has two albums under their belt, including 2014’s Rollin’ On Down the Plains and 2017’s My Mother’s Couch.

Last month, In With the Old showcased their music at Folk Alliance International in Kansas City.

Vickie Dyck, Artistic Director with the Barn Playhouse, said the facility is a fitting place to hold the concert. “It works well because we’re between events at the

Barn Playhouse,” said Dyck in an interview. “About 12 years ago, our own family band played at the first Northern Lights festival. It was an incredible experience, and it’s nice to keep that connection going.”

Lois Miller, who did the booking for the Barn Playhouse, said she attended the Northern Lights Bluegrass festival last summer and stayed for the week-long music camp. She came back from the camp and pitched the idea of a mid-winter concert to Vickie Dyck.

Business Excellence Awards nominees unveiled March 15

The countdown is on and excitement is building as the Warman Martensville Business Excellence Awards (WMBEXA) judges diligently review the last few award applications.

On March 15, the Warman & Martensville Chambers

SaskCentral Victim Services has changes

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca SaskCentral Victim Services has a new coordinator.

Tracey Shewciw at the SaskCentral Victim Services Humboldt Office has taken on the role of Acting Program Coordinator, as Program Coordinator Sheri Watkins is now on maternity leave.

Jenna Holt has assumed the role of Assistant Coordinator at the Martensville office, and Sarah Andersen is Assistant Coordinator in the Kindersley office. Crystal Chahley is administrative assistant in Martensville.

The majority of files dealt with by SaskCentral Victim Services involve domestic violence.

SaskCentral Victim Services was launched in April 2015. It covers 11 RCMP detachment areas, a region which stretches from the Alberta border to east of Humboldt. While its offices are located in RCMP detachment offices in Mar-

tensville, Humboldt and Kindersley, SaskCentral Victim Services operates as an independent agency, with funding from the provincial Ministry of Justice.

SaskCentral Victim Services currently has a Governance Board of eight members, and 25 security-cleared volunteers working on cases. An additional five volunteers are currently awaiting security clearance.

SaskCentral is currently looking for volunteers to work on files as well as volunteers to fill board member positions.

The Victim Services Program was established under legislation adopted in 1995, and is intended to provide assistance to anyone who has suffered harm including physical injury, economic loss or emotional suffering as a result of a crime or traumatic event. Victim Services staff and trained volunteers are available through local police services to give guidance on navigating the court process.

“It’s always an exciting time, but we wanted to raise the bar higher this year by announcing the finalists live. It’s a way that we can promote and recognize the remarkable businesses we have in our communities,” Jaimie Malmgren, Executive Director with the Warman Chamber of Commerce explained.

The second annual WMBEXA awards gala, a celebration of business ecellence, is scheduled for Friday, May 5 at the North Ridge Centennial Community Centre in Martensville.

“It’s amazing music, and it’s nice to be able to give people a chance to see and hear these bands,” said Miller.

Dyck noted that Ellen Froese-Kooijenga, in addition to being a great songwriter and musician, has acted in numerous productions at the Barn Playhouse during her younger years.

“Ellen grew up on a farm really close to here,” said Dyck. “Having her perform on our stage again is really close to my heart.”

Homeowner left shaken and disillusioned by builder

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca A simple home purchase turned from a dream to a nightmare almost overnight for a young woman in Warman. The 24-year-old closed the deal in December and moved in on January 20. That’s when the trouble started.

“Right away we had contractors knocking on the door,” said Caitlyn’s mother, Leeanne Lemaitre. The home was built by Warman builder, Welcome Homes.

A report from Global News last month revealed the builder has sent a letter to contractors indicting it has ceased operations.

The home Caitlyn purchased was a showhome and contractors suspected that Dean and Nancy Emde, the owners of Welcome Homes, or their family might be living in the home. As a result, several frustrated contractors have shown up at Caitlyn’s door, hoping to have their bills settled.

Lemaitre put the word out that the Emdes do not live at that address. In fact no one seems to know where they are. “They have vanished.

They have disappeared into thin air,” she said.

Some of the contractors have been rude and one insisted he needed to come in and have a look around, Lemaitre said. Caitlyn has had to tell to repeat to each one that the home is hers now, that the Emdes don’t live there. Nevertheless, contractors have placed liens against her home even though she has paid, through her purchase price, for all the work done on the home. It’s the Emdes who haven’t paid their contractors.

The experience has left Caitlyn shaken and afraid.

She has feared for her safety and has had all the locks changed in case a contractor

may still have keys to the house.

“She’s a wreck,” said Lemaitre. “She calls me every day. Every day she gets a new lien in the mail or a letter from another lawyer.

She’s having a really rough time with it. It’s her first home and she worked really hard to purchase it.”

Caitlyn lived with her parents for a year after completing university and getting her first job, and saved every penny so she could avoid renting and get into the housing market. Now she’s had to retain a lawyer at $300 an hour to fight all the liens.

The builder had significantly reduced the purchase price of $389,000 which brought it into a range Caitlyn could afford. But the big price drop seemed suspicious to Lemaitre. “One of our first questions was why would they drop the price by $80,000. It doesn’t make any sense.” The realtor allegedly told her it was because it had been the Emdes show home for a very long time and they wanted to liquidate it in order to develop some higher end homes on some premium walkout lots in Warman.

“I don’t know if it was mother’s intuition or a little spidey sense, but I thought, something’s not quite right here.” Lemaitre said the builder was in a hurry to get Caitlyn to lift the conditions on the sale, get her deposit and get the deal done in under a month.

Many of the contractors have banded together to share legal costs. Caitlyn has no one to share her costs so her parents are helping with legal bills. “Social media has been really helpful because she’s not alone.

There are others who she can identify with.”

“This whole process has really injured our daughter.

She doesn’t trust right now. I don’t think she’ll ever buy a new home again. She hasn’t really been able to enjoy the home at all.” It may not have been her dream house, but to be able to get a house, was a dream, that is now broken.

The Lemaitres are frustrated and want the Emdes to do the responsible thing.

“I want them to come forward and do what’s right.

Even if you’re going under, you actually have to honour those contractors and the work they’ve done. I don’t care how much in debt you are or how bad your finances got, you have to pay those people as you go along,” said Lemaitre.

“I’m shocked that the RCMP are not involved. This is fraud - not just a little bit, there are five or six other homeowners along with my daughter.”

Welcome Homes is not a member of the Saskatoon & Region Home Builders’ Association, according to CEO Chris Guerette. She said they had a brief stint as a member but never completed their certification and were never a Certified Professional Builder. Members of the association meet minimum standards in the industry.

The association encourages new home buyers to ask a lot of questions of builders, find out what’s standard in the industry, demand a standard you feel comfortable with, shop around, find out how the contract protects you if changes are made.

“We always tell home owners to look for that professional association, because it’s not mandatory,” said Guerette. Ask if they are a Certified Professional Builder. Ask if they have a Third Party Warranty and what it entails. It’s also not mandatory. Ask for references - people who really value their experience with a given builder.

Cheer teams from Warman Community Middle School (top) and Venture Heights School in Martensville were among hundreds of entrants in the annual Warman Cheer Classic competition last weekend. The event attracted about 2,000 athletes from across western Canada and is the largest cheerleading competition in Saskatchewan. Placing first in their respective divisions were: WCMS, WHS, Moonstones, Rubies,Emeralds, Opals, Sapphires, Peridot. Second place finishes went to: Garnet 1, Garnet 2, Citrine, Topaz. Third place finish went to the Pearls. Fourth place finish went to Amethysts. Grand Champion Awards were presented to: WCMS, Opal, Peridot

City of Warman explores possibility of inter-professional health care services

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@gmail.com The city of Warman is looking into developing an innovative model of health care. It would utilize nurse practitioners and other resources and personnel from the University of Saskatchewan, and complement existing services.

Two nurse practitioners from the faculty of the College of Nursing are in the process of gathering information through community consultations and surveys to determine what the needs are.

‘We’re talking to people in the community to find out what your health care needs are and where do you see gaps in health care in the city of Warman,” said Mary Ellen Andrews, one of the nurse practitioners (NP) at a March 2 meeting at the Warman Mennonite Special Care Home. Andrews asked about a dozen people around the table, “If you could have the utopia of services in Warman, what would that look like?”

The NP’s first approached the mayor and Warman city council last June to see if they would like to explore the potential for an inter-professional academic faculty practice clinic to be placed Warman. They agreed to partner together to build a business plan, which is nearly completed, and do a community assessment.

“We’re looking at a clinical

environment that would be more than just a traditional physicians clinic,” said Andrews. Nurses or NPs would see clients, as would physicians. A pharmacist could be onsite not only for prescription services but to take appointments with clients to discuss their medications.

Other professionals could be part of the inter-disciplinary clinic, such as a nutritionist, physiotherapist, social worker, psychologist, and more, as determined by the needs of the community. Work would be collaborative and distributed based on each professional’s scope of practice. The model integrates practice, teaching and research.

The question nurse practitioners get most often is how are they different than a doctor. “Nurse practitioners have an expanded scope of practice compared to a nurse,” said Janet Luimes, the other NP present at the meeting.

NPs receive an advanced level of education after becoming RNs and gaining experience in the field. “I can assess and diagnose problems and interpret them, prescribe treatments and medications and do minor procedures,” said Luimes.

Saskatchewan currently has 214 NPs, 50 per cent of whom work in rural areas.

A few residents of the care home expressed support for the concept. “I think the

concept is good,” said Peter Guenther. “We could use a lot more help. We have been sort of deprived of professional services because they don’t stay here. I think you’re on the right track.”

Having more access to medical services, having it sooner and with extended hours was a common theme.

A Warman physician also believes the concept is a good one. “I think it is a very good idea, not as competitive but as complementary services. I’m for it,” said Dr. Ghuman.

Having an inter-professional clinic would ease the load for physicians and likely emergency services as well. “We have talked to the Fire Department Chief here, Russ Austin, and he has told us your volunteer fire department gets a lot of 911 calls for emergencies and a lot of those, about 35 per cent of them, probably don’t need to go to the hospital. They’re actually things that could be dealt with at a primary care type clinic,” Luimes said.

Andrews and Luimes heard from Warman High School students earlier this week and are continuing their consultation with other community groups or businesses such as Pro Sport Rehab in Warman and others. The goal is to create “synergies” between all service providers for the betterment of health care in Warman and surrounding area.

At the Wireless Age we’re here to listen to you. We call it...

“unplugged and all in”

Hockey rivalry heats up in provincials

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca There were multiple momentum swings during Game 1 of the SHA Bantam A northern provincial final, as the Martensville Marauders snuck away with a 8-7 victory over the Warman Wildcat Lynx, on Monday March 6.

Martensville led 7-3 after two periods and Cole Duperreault scored early in the final frame for the Marauders, to make it a four-goal game. But throughout the rest of the period, the Lynx started clawing their way back into the contest.

Warman netted four unanswered goals as Theron Collins, Darian Noln-Ens, Percy McDonald and Tyler Vanneste were the goal scorers.

The Lynx now only trail by one entering Game 2 of the two-game, total-goals series, which will be in Martensville on Sunday, March 12.

The Lynx had the edge early in the game and within the first four minutes of the opening period, Owen Tallmadge scored for Warman.

“We expected Warman to come out hard and we knew that we might not have everything go our way in the first five minutes or so. But it’s how we responded, that’s what’s important,” said Martensville coach John Kachur.

Martensville responded by scoring three goals within 38 seconds of each other. Nicholas Guran, Ty Albrecht and Payton Kachur recorded the goals.

Around the midway point of the period, Tyler Samuels pulled Warman within on goal. But that momentum was short lived as Duperreault scored for Martensville Martensville had a 4-2 lead after 20 minutes of play.

The Marauders started the

middle frame the way they ended the first, by creating pressure and making the Warman defence work.

When Dallas Nicholson scored Martensville’s fifth goal of the game, Warman switched its goaltenders.

“We already used our timeout earlier and we just needed to change things up and see if we can spark the team,” Warman coach Vance Heaney said.

After the goalie change, Martensville continued to cause problems in front of Warman’s net. However, the Lynx defence withstood the pressure and that paid off as Jaret Rowan netted one for Warman.

But again the Marauders continued their relentless effort and scored two more goals. Duperreault and Holden Doell were the goals scorers.

“I think Martensville was playing great. Their hearts were in it and they were go-

ing hard and they pushed hard, and our boys didn’t respond. And it took a couple periods to get their pace up and get back into the game,” Heaney said.

Between periods, Heaney said he told his team to just focus and just play hard to win the periods. Eventually in the third frame the momentum shifted toward the Lynx.

“Give credit to Warman too, they’re not just going to roll over, we know that and momentum works that way.

So we got to ... leave that poor result in the dressing room and just worry about the next game,” Kachur said.

Going into Game 2, Kachur said having a one-goal lead is an advantage since the contest will be at their home rink. Heaney said the only way they have a chance to win that game is to play with the passion they did in the third period of Game 1.

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Some Dalmeny kids have shown it pays to be a rink rat. The Junior High School curling team won 4 - 0 last weekend and won the gold at the Central Valley Athletic Conference Mixed Championship.

The team was fresh off a bronze win at the Annual Regina Tim Horton’s Junior Bonspiel at the end of February.

“I’m so very proud of my Grade 8 U15 curling team!” said coach Darren Lindberg.

He’s also a Dad of one of the curlers. The team has five members, all of whom are

in Grade 8: Nolan Lindberg, Karis Mark, Marina Johnson, Logan Rumberg and Everett Perret. Rumberg is from Warman and plays in a couple of different leagues.

“The Regina event featured 18 teams in three pools with our guys winning their pool and one of two shootout competitions as well,” added Lindberg.

The team received bronzecoloured medals of achievement from Tim Horton’s Last year was the team’s first year playing together.

“Their personalities have all fit really well together. It helped define which kids played best in certain

positions,” said Lindberg.

They’ve tweaked that mix a bit over the past year and now have a good sense of what the best match-up is.

The group takes advantages of opportunities to participate in bonspiel activities during the winter, organized by the Saskatchewan Curling Association for U15 and U18 curlers throughout the province. They’re on the ice maybe four or five days a week, whether it’s for training, subbing in, practicing, games, etc. Some have played over 50 curling games so far this year.

“This young group of kids has really improved. Their

strategy for the game has improved and their technical capabilities as players have really improved,” said Lindberg. This is the same bunch of kids who beat the Rob Swan Dalmeny Curling Club team in January. Swan is the cross-Canada curler who came to play a Dalmeny game as part of his Saskatchewan tour.

The team participated in a U15 event in North Battleford in early December, another in Humboldt in January, and the Regina event.

In between league games they played exhibition matches against 4-H teams and other school teams.

Vipers advance to Bantam AA north division final

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Sask Valley Vipers defeated the North East Wolf Pack 8-4 on Saturday, March 4. With the win the Vipers now take on the Saskatoon Maniacs in the Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League north division final.

“It was kind of a sloppy game out there, but they did enough things well that got them the win and I’m happy for them,” Vipers coach Shaun Priel said.

The contest was played at the Legends Centre in Warman and Ty Higgs scored the game’s first goal, six and a half minutes into the opening period, which

came on the power play.

A few minutes after that goal, the Vipers struck again to take a 2-0 lead, as Darian Sexsmith netted one.

It didn’t take too long for the Wolf Pack to respond, and after creating some havoc in front the Vipers’ net, North East pulled within one goal.

Later in the period, Sask Valley continued to have success on the power play by scoring another goal. The Wolf Pack goaltender made the initial save, but the rebound went to Ryan Conlon, as he was parked right in front of the net, and he quickly scored.

North East was able to get

the puck past the Sask Valley net-minder toward the end of the period, but the Vipers led 3-2 going into the middle frame.

Even though the Vipers led at that point, Priel believed that they could’ve started the game stronger.

“I don’t know if ... the kids were a little bit nervous, (but) we played a little tentative in the first period, Priel said. “We came ahead after the first period which was a good thing. But just the fact that we scored a couple of goals it gave the kids confidence to build off of.”

The Vipers started the second period generating pressure in the Wolf Pack’s zone

and eventually netted two goals in the frame. Josh Pillar scored both goals.

Sask Valley kept North East off of the scoreboard and led 5-2 going into the final 20 minutes.

Both teams exchanged goals in the first half of the period, as Sexsmith was the goal-scorer for the Vipers.

With around five minutes remaining in the game, the Vipers committed a penalty, which led to the Wolf Pack

In the next best-of-three series against the Maniacs, Priel said it will be a challenge as Saskatoon finished in first place in the division, but he his looking forward to it.

“They only had two losses this year, one of those against us. We can compete with them (and) we’re going to have to raise our game to a place that every guy’s committed to be their best,” Priel said.

pulling the goalie for the two-man advantage. North East scored on that power play and only trailed 6-4.

But Ethan Grabowski and Keenan Allen each scored an empty netter to put an end to a Wolf Pack comeback.

Priel said the difference in the game is the Vipers scored a couple of goals on the power play. He was glad to see the team finish in those situations.

FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY

CAPRICORN December 22– January 19

Capricorn, the key to landing on your feet is to always expect the curveballs that will be thrown your way. This way you are always on your toes and can adapt quickly.

AQUARIUS January 20– February 18

Now is a good time to declutter your life, Aquarius. Start sorting through your belongings, then move on to any emotional baggage you’ve been carrying.

PISCES February 19– March 20

This week is ripe for love, Pisces. A romantic connection may finally bloom or you may get news that someone is expecting a baby.

ARIES March 21– April 19

You may find yourself teetering between responsibilities to work, friends & family. It’s possible you will need to set aside some time to play catch-up in the coming days.

TAURUS April 20– May 20

Listen before you make assumptions, Taurus. Resist any temptation to wildly post or chat about personal information. You might regret it later on.

GEMINI May 21– June 21

Finances are your main priority this week, Gemini. Whether you have a lot in savings or are floundering paycheck to paycheck, it is time to reassess your financial situation.

sudoku

CANCER June 22– July 22

Cancer, if things are stressful at home, it may be necessary to step away for some breathing room. Book a vacation so everyone can unwind and recharge.

LEO July 23– August 22

Take a deep breath and try to relax, Leo. You have been operating on overdrive for some time now and you’re just about out of gas. Book that vacation, pronto.

VIRGO August 23– September 22

A promising collaboration may be on the horizon, Virgo.

This could prove interesting and also propel a hobby or your career a bit further than you had anticipated.

LIBRA September 23– October 22

Newfound success earns you the recognition you deserve. It could mean a promotion or even the opportunity to enjoy a new, more lucrative job elsewhere.

SCORPIO October 23– November 21

A dream or a passion project you have been working on for several months may finally come to fruition, Scorpio.

Make changes gradually and success will follow.

SAGITTARIUS November 22– December 21

There’s no wiggle room left for apprehension or ambivalence. Take action this week and it could be a turning point in your life. Seal the deal however you choose.

THURSDAY, MARCH 9, 2017 • CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

RM of Corman Park Police Report Submitted by Police Chief John Garnet Recently the RM of Corman Park area has been back in the news with a couple of fairly high profile incidents. One involved a home invasion (west of the city), stolen vehicle and multiple suspects and another involved a high-speed pursuit that ended in the Warman area. Incidents like these are especially scary for people living in rural areas because it is often felt police are not close – and often they are right. We also frequently get calls about suspicious vehicles and people casing yards.

ILLEGAL DUMPING

As the weather warms up people will start cleaning up yards and homes and unfortunately some of these people will dump their rubbish in the RM. It has always left me wondering if the people who do this are lazy, cheap or just thoughtless.

I’m sure they would be hopping mad if someone were to dump garbage on their property. In any case, if you observe anyone that looks like they may be dumping illegally, get what information you can and please forward it to us – a picture of a vehicle, plate, or person is even better. I would ask that you not approach these people as they could become hostile.

In February we dealt with 11 of these complaints.

As the weather warms up we want to get out of the house. Soon the roads will be getting soft and road bans will be activated. The roads are still slippery and rutted in spots. Drive carefully. In February we attended several accidents and wrote 325 tickets to people who weren’t driving appropriately.

POOCH POACHING

Spring is also the time when dogs will wander – looking for friends or mischief. We had to deal with seven dog complaints last month and one dog was shot – by persons unknown – for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Keep them home – and safe.

PUBLIC NOTICE Rural Municipality of Montrose No. 315

Public Notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Montrose, No. 315 intends to consider alterations to a proposed new Zoning Bylaw and Official Community Plan under Section 211 of The Planning and Development Act, 2007.

INTENT Council intends to consider alterations to the proposed new Zoning Bylaw and Official Community Plan. The alterations are noted below: 1. The proposed zoning bylaw alterations will affect the Zoning Bylaw by: a. Replacing the definition for an Intensive Livestock Operation with a new definition that is more consistent with the provincial standard; b. Fixing several typographical errors; and c. Adding manure disposal as a permitted use within the A – Agriculture Zoning District, subject to the requirement for separation between residential uses and the requirement for annual permits.

2. The proposed Official Community Plan alterations will affect the Official Community Plan by: a. Fixing a typographical error; b. Deleting the species-specific required separation distances for manure spreading versus residential uses in Table 5-1 and replacing them with separation distances for solid manure (incorporated within 24 hours), solid manure (not incorporated within 24 hours) and liquid manure (must be incorporated within 24 hours) versus residential uses; c. Adding a provision that does not allow manure to spread on land more than once every three years; d. Adding a provision that would require new residential uses to maintain a separation distance from lawfully existing Intensive Livestock Operations that is one level of intensity higher than the current level of intensity described in Table 5-1; e. Replacing Map 1 - Development Constraints and Map 2 – Intensive Livestock Operations Minimum Separation Distances with 2 new maps that more clearly identify the locations of existing Intensive Livestock Operations; f. Clarifying that acceptable methods of incorporating manure include: tandem disc, cultivation and vertical tillage; and g. Clarifying and highlighting some of the obligations for developers pursuant to the Heritage Property Act. REASON The reason for the alterations to the Zoning Bylaw are to provide for more clarity and to add some additional regulations for manure spreading. The reason for the alterations to the Official Community Plan are to provide more clarity and to implement more appropriate and balanced separation distances for manure spreading and Intensive Livestock Operations versus residential uses. Additionally, both alterations are intended to help mitigate land use conflicts.

PUBLIC INSPECTION Any person may inspect the proposed bylaw with alterations at the R.M. Office in the Hamlet of Donavon, located off 1st Avenue, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday to Thursday, excluding statutory holidays. Copies are available to individuals at a cost of $40.00. The Bylaws are also available for review or download for the following website: www.rmmontrose.ca PUBLIC HEARING Council will hold a public hearing on April 12th, 2017, in the R.M. Office in the Hamlet of Donavon, located off 1st Avenue at 10:00 am. Council will also consider written comments received at the hearing or delivered to the undersigned at the municipal office before the hearing. Council will only consider comments that relate to the actual alterations at this public hearing or written comments relating to same delivered to the municipal office before the hearing.

Issued at the R.M. of Montrose this 9th day of March, 2017.

Dacie Crawford and Cassidy Peters of the Hague Ms. Conducts try gain to control of the loose puck against the Rosetown Shooting Stars during the SHA Pee Wee B female provincial playoffs, on Thursday March 2 in Hague. This was Game 2 of the two-game, total-goals series, and the Ms. Conducts won 3-2.

But Hague lost 11-0 in Game 1 and the win wasn’t enough to overcome their goal deficit. The team includes youth from Hague, Hepburn, Laird, Dalmeny, Osler, Neuanlage, Duck Lake and Rosthern.

DUCK LAKE TEAM

The Stobart wrestling pro-

gram consists of two clubs.

There are 11 youth on the junior team and four on the senior squad. Only the senior team will be competing in Moose Jaw. The senior team had success this year, bringing home three silver medals from the Titan Wrestling Tournament in Regina last month.

Coach Owen Quance said the team has worked hard all season as they practice three times a week. The students also attended camps in Prince Albert put on by the University of Saskatchewan Huskies wrestling team.

“The camps that they went to were on Christmas break and February break, so they’re actually giving up some of their vacation to make sure that they’re getting this opportunity,” Quance said. “It’s been some dedication on their behalf and it’s really starting to shine through.”

Quance believes that each wrestler has the ability to perform well at the regional tournament and it should be interesting as two members of the team, who are brothers, will be competing in the same weight class.

“For a lot of them, this is their second, third year of wrestling. And all of that training is starting to come in, it’s starting to sink through. So it’s been really fun to watch,” Quance said.

The team competed in four tournaments this season.

with the tournaments they’ve wrestled in, they have been in some of those weight categories. So they have an idea of who their competition is a little bit and where they’re supposed to be,” Reis said.

The students have put in a lot of work during the season and have shown improvement. Reis said that some of them have attended wrestling camps and have participated in club wrestling that takes place in Saskatoon, which shows their dedication and commitment to the sport.

“It’s one of our hardest working teams as a whole that we’ve had in the six years that we’ve had a wrestling program. We’ve always had one or two kids that would step up more than the others in previous years.

But this year, it seems the team as a whole is ready to put in the work,” Reis said.

Overall, Reis believes that hosting provincials will generate more interest among people to join the sport.

“I tried my best to not only give these kids an opportunity in wrestling, but just to grow the sport in our community here. So we host provincials which in regards to the prestigiousness of the event, it’s pretty large,” Reis said. “That’s the top high school tournament within Saskatchewan and you’re going to get some of the best wrestlers in Saskatchewan out at that event.

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca Warman High and Stobart Community School wrestling teams are ready for regionals and provincials, as the two tournaments close out the high school wrestling season.

Warman is hosting the Provincial Wrestling Championships on March 17 and 18 at the Legends Centre and coach Jesse Reis expects the youth to perform well at regionals and advance to provincials.

“I think most of our kids can qualify (for provincials). My goal would be ... to send 12 ... but we have the ability to send a majority of our kids for sure,” Reis said.

There are 16 students on the team, which includes seven girls and nine boys and they will all be competing at the Regional Wrestling Tournament in Moose Jaw on March 11. Reis said there has been a recent increase of girls joining the sport and he expects them to do well at regionals.

“The girls program has always been smaller. But the last two years, with the growth of rugby, it’s actually really helped bring girls out into wrestling,” Reis said.

To advance to the provincial tournament, the athletes have to finish in the top four in their respective weight class at regionals and Reis believes the team is ready to do well against the competition.

There were many carnival games in the Osler Community Hall that the children enjoyed, as they won prizes. Top Right, Osler Mayor Abe Quiring, left, chases after the ball during a shinny tournament. Bottom left, Cassidy Braun gets her face painted.

After more than 18,000 meals, I’m ready to hang up my apron.

With decades of family life under my belt, I calculate I’ve cooked thousands of dinners. My husband and I may have retired from our day jobs, but I kept on with my same household routine. Now it’s time for me to truly retire! I’m happy to hand over the cooking & cleaning to someone else. At Stonebridge Crossing I’ll enjoy delicious meals all freshly prepared and served in a lovely dining room by friendly servers. And they even do the dishes!

Isn’t it time you really retired? Taste test Stonebridge Crossing. Call to book your tour and be our guest for a delicious meal.
