Top regional talent showcased at Twin Rivers Music Festival
By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca They’ve practiced hard, they’re polished up, and now they’re ready to unleash their talent, not just before adjudicators, but for appreciative audiences. That’s about the only kind of audiences you’ll find at the Twin Rivers Music Festival. The Festival will bring together instrumental musicians, speech artists, vocalists, bands and ensemble groups for a celebration of performing arts in Dalmeny, March 27 to April 2.
Festival president Elaine Kimpinski is new in the role this year, but has served on the board for close to four years. As a music teacher she has sent students to the festival for over ten years. “The festival is a great opportunity for young musicians to showcase their musical talent,” said Kimpinski. “It’s also a fantastic place for community members to sit and listen for a couple of hours to some great performances.” Kimpinski says she loves how the adjudicators interact with the participants.
“They encourage them and they give them something that they could improve on to take that performance up to even the next level.” Several adjudicators are lined up, from North Battleford and Regina. Now in its 16th year, the TRMF draws participants from nearby communities like Langham, Osler, Warman and Martensville and some from Saskatoon. A real treat for festival regulars is to see how the kids blossom from year to year. We’re really excited this year that we have more and
Prairie Spirit Schools Foundation provides grants
Innovative learning opportunities for Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) students are being supported by $30,000 in Learning Grants from the Prairie Spirit Schools Foundation (PSSF). The foundation’s Learning Grants are designed to support students in PSSD, with an emphasis on student engagement and relevant learning opportunities. Several PSSD schools received grants for “Junk Yard Robotics” programs from the PSSF. Warman High School and Walter W. Brown High School in Langham received grants for their outdoor education programs. Hepburn School and Aberdeen School were awarded grants for their Outdoor Garden Space programs. Vanscoy School was provided with additional resources for its Outdoor Classroom program. Rosthern High School received a grant for its Classroom Libraries. The annual ‘Resonate’
music conference was also awarded a grant. Applications for Learning Grants opened in the fall, with a focus on enhancing student engagement by empowering young people to explore their passions and create change in their classrooms, their schools and their community. Following a rigorous application process, the foundation approved nine submissions from teachers and administrators and provided funds to schools throughout the division. “This is a very exciting time for the foundation, giving back to our schools and supporting new learning opportunities,” said PSSF Executive Director Sharon Compton. “We are looking forward to hearing more about the impact these grants will make in the lives of our students and building our grant pool next year and beyond.” The foundation approved applications where the learning environment supported students to collabo-
rate within and outside the classroom, learning side by side. The PSSF was established in 2014 to engage partners in public education to enrich opportunities for students to become contributing citizens and learners for life. The foundation encourages and facilitates community and corporate support and involvement in public education. “Our vision for the Prairie Spirit Schools Foundation is a community that values innovation in public education and supports a lifetime of learning,” said PSSF Board Chair Bonnie Hope. “Without the support of our partners, sponsors and fundraiser participants, opportunities for our students such as these learning grants would not be possible.” The foundation raises funds through partnerships, sponsorships, its annual Golf Classic and Trip a Month raffle, with plans for the first annual Appeal this spring.

Highway 16 cavalcade backs calls for safety By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca About 200 emergency responders turned out for a massive demonstration on Highway 16 near Langham on Monday night, March 20, to pay tribute to a tow truck driver killed on the job during a blizzard near Esterhazy earlier this month. The event also called for changes to allow tow trucks to use a combination of amber and other coloured lights. Over 50 tow trucks, fire trucks, police and rescue vehicles gathered at the Highway 16 weigh scales southeast of Langham at dusk. Firefighters from Langham, Borden, Dalmeny, Martensville and Warman arrived in marked fire trucks wearing their turnout gear. As darkness fell, the procession of trucks, with their lights flashing, headed out
onto the divided highway in both directions. After setting up warning markers, the emergency vehicles parked on the side of the highway and the drivers removed their hats in a show of respect, while passing traffic slowed to 60 kilometers an hour. Brad Warriner, a driver with a Saskatoon-based tow truck company and a key organizer of the event, said drivers need to slow down when passing any type of emergency vehicle. “We wanted to raise awareness that people need to slow to 60 kilometers,” said Warriner. “It’s really too bad that a tragic event has to happen to get people’s attention. “It doesn’t matter if it’s a tow truck, police car, fire engine, or ambulance. “Slow down, pull over and give us the room we need to

Hundreds of firefighters and emergency responders joined tow truck drivers at a rally on Highway 16 near Langham on Monday, March 20 do our work. We want everyone to be safe.” Warriner said tow trucks need more than amber lights. “Some kind of com-
bination of lights, whether it’s amber and red, or amber and blue, would be a lot better at getting people’s attention,” he said. “There are
so many amber lights used on such a variety of vehicles that people tend to ignore them.” Warriner said he was
amazed at the turnout for the rally. “I can’t put it into words,” he said. “I didn’t think we’d get this big a response.”
Fiscal challenges generate frank discussions at SARM By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Fiscal challenges were at the forefront of Government Relations Minister Donna Harpauer’s address to the SARM convention March 8. She struck a balance between celebrating the positives and citing the realities. While the economy is more diversified and resilient than ever before, the other ‘nagging reality’ is that low commodity prices have plagued the province for the past three years, she said. Officials have been giving Saskatchewan residents fair warning for the past couple of months about fiscal challenges. Now we’ve been warned to brace ourselves
for the budget. “It will be a tough budget, there’s no getting around it,” said Harpauer. She repeated the now familiar refrain that ‘everything is on the table’ to reduce the deficit. “Austerity is still going to be the watchword in the coming fiscal year not only for us but also for you our municipal partners,” she told SARM delegates, reminding them that this government will not ‘kick the can down the road’ for some later administration to deal with. “We’re going to deal with the deficit problem now and in the upcoming budget we will have a plan.” Harpauer noted that although revenue sharing has reached record levels, it is
tied to the PST, and those numbers are down because of the province’s fiscal challenges. The province intends to review the distribution of the funds. “Our government recognizes and appreciates that industries such as agriculture, oil, gas and mining are critical drivers of our economy. They are located in rural Saskatchewan. We will keep that in mind as we undertake the review of the municipal revenue sharing formula,” Harpauer said, adding that urban Saskatchewan may be the engine of the province but the fuel comes from rural Saskatchewan. Harpauer noted that the global marketplace is more
uncertain these days with protectionism on the rise in many nations, and established trade agreements are under greater scrutiny. She underscored the importance of the $1.4 trillion mutually beneficial Canada-US trade-investment relationship, which is crucial for our province. A Bear Pit session with the provincial cabinet followed Harpauer’s address. Questions regarding the fiscal challenges, the possible amalgamation of school divisions, Moose Jaw’s hyperbaric chamber, orphan wells, school speed zones, the language of Bill 44, flood mitigation and education were posed by delegates. Jeanne-Marie DeMois-

sac from the RM of Biggar asked Education Minister Don Morgan if the ministry would consider distance learning going forward. “The taxes collected by the RMs in the province are at a premium. We are paying gourmet meal prices and our children are getting fed Kraft dinner education. Our schools have turned from places that educate people into places that employ very many expensive people.” DeMoissac said with the huge advances in technology more successes in distance learning are taking place. Morgan said while the current model involves brick and mortar classrooms and libraries, “it’s
time we reconsider and look at some other options that are there.” He cited a Distance Learning Centre at a division in Kenaston that is worth a tour. Rod Wiens from the RM of Mountain View drew attention to the province’s low rate of organ donation. Health Minister Jim Reiter said the province will be make an announcement in the next couple of months. “We’re going to look at going as far down the presumed consent road as we can while still recognizing individual and religious concerns, so there needs to be an appropriate opt out provision. We’re optimistic we’re going to do better in Saskatchewan,” Reiter said.

Pipeline route draws ire of Beaver Creek area residents By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca SaskEnergy is proposing a sixth change to the route of its South Saskatoon Pipeline Project, in response to concerns of area residents. A group known as the Friends of Beaver Creek Ecosystem, have launched a petition and opened a conversation with the premier because of a proposed pipeline route through Beaver Creek Conservation Area (BCCA). But Dave Burdeniuk, Director of Government and
Media Relations for SaskEnergy says, while a previous route may have followed a road through the BCCA, that’s no longer the case. “We’re not going through the Beaver Creek Conservation Area,” Burdeniuk said. We’ve talked to the Meewasin Valley Authority (MVA), and they administer the BCCA. We have a letter of support from the MVA for the project.” SaskEnergy wants the pipeline to service future growth in Saskatoon and east of Saskatoon. The new

line will connect to existing pipelines at Vanscoy and Patience Lake. Anytime SaskEnergy changes the route, they have a new set of landowners to work with. Burdeniuk said the latest route would not cross any land owned by Wally Hamm, an organic farmer in the area who recently spoke to media about his concerns. Work on the pipeline is slated to begin in spring of 2018. “We have time. We don’t have to panic. But we don’t have endless time,”
Members of the Optimist Club of Warman and some of their younger family members held a special meeting on Sunday, March 12 to draw the winning names for their 1st Annual Spring Raffle. Roger Lesofski won the remote control car, Richard Gehl picked up a BMX bicycle and Ryan Dutchak a scooter. Members of the Optimist Club of Warman devote their time to raising funds to help youth projects and kids in need in Warman and surrounding district. The club meets the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month and new members are invited to join the service club.
said Burdeniuk. “If we can reroute we will but at some point we do have to stop changing and say, ‘this is the best route’.” SaskEnergy is into its third year of talking with landowners. Burdeniuk said in a few cases people have come on board when an alternate route through their land was proposed. “People do understand there is a greater need here.” Ruth Gosselin lives in the organic valley in the area, and still has questions. She’s concerned about a break down in communication, mixed messages being delivered, sometimes through the media, the size of the setbacks, and ongoing concerns about the route. “Going through our organic valley, certainly that’s a bad route,” said Gosselin. “I’ve been told so many different things, I won’t believe anything until I see it in writing.” She no longer knows whether the route will go through her land or not. Residents also have concerns about what can go through the pipe. Burdeniuk said the only mandate SaskEnergy has is to transport gas, which will not change for the lifetime of the pipeline. Some have asked what happens if the pipeline is abandoned. Landowners in other parts of Canada have run into issues where they had to handle abandonment costs, Burdeniuk said. “If we ever do abandon a pipeline, if its not envi-
ronmentally damaging, we would actually remove the pipeline. If it looks like it could damage the environment, we would simply cap it on either side, make sure its cleaned inside, and then seal it and leave it in place. We would never transfer those costs to the landowner.” Landowners are compensated for the 30-metre corridor easement but not for the 10-metre setbacks on either side, Burdeniuk said. TranGas will try and keep the corridor and work space as narrow as possible, he said. “If you’re doing normal ag practices, that can continue in the easement and the setback as well. You just can’t put a structure over top of it. If you’re putting up a fence or doing something else, oth-
er than putting up a structure, landowners now need our consent to do anything within 10 metres of the easement,” he said. “Any landowner we’re negotiating with right now - we’re asking for that 30 metre easement, and the 10-metre setbacks on either side. That’s all we are legally entitled to ask for.” Some residents suggested taking the pipeline through crown land further south. Another suggestion takes the route south of Dundurn. “This is a $55 to $60 million project depending on final routing. To go extreme south would mean probably adding another $50 million to the project which is not practical for us,” Burdeniuk said.

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca They’re not calling it a movement, but it might be. Increasingly, bluegrass musicians are banding together to fan the flames of their love for the genre, and of course, produce more music. A Sunday matinee concert at the Barn Playhouse, featuring local bluegrass band, “In With the Old” and the Slocan Ramblers from Toronto. The Northern Lights Bluegrass & Old Tyme Music Society (NLBOTMS) hosted the concert. The society runs a bluegrass camp and festival at Ness Creek in August each year. “We had a really good crowd out,” said Tracy Lalonde, a coordinator with NLBOTMS. “We wanted to offer some folks who would typically have to drive into the city for a concert, something local.” SaskTel Max, which runs local programming on demand chose to record the show. Having the Slocan Ramblers was “phenomenal” Lalonde said. “In With the Old” has already met and been mentored by these Slocan Ramblers over the last year and here they are coming together as friends and playing a concert together which is just fantastic.” In With the Old’s Ellen Froese-Kooijenga grew up in the Osler area and has a long-standing connection to the Barn Playhouse. The group opened for the Slocan Ramblers. The Ramblers have been together for several years. “They are all very proficient with their instruments and have been touring together all over North America,” Lalonde said. Musicianship is fairly complex in bluegrass music and interpretive solos are typical. Listener appreciation is high as it is in a genre like jazz. One of the mandates of the NLBOTMS is education so they arranged for the Slocan Ramblers to go into some Saskatoon and area schools to teach students about bluegrass music. The group played at Valley Manor School (VMS) in Martensville on Monday. They

The Slocan Ramblers - Adrian Gross (mandolin), Frank Evans (banjo), Alistair Whitehead (bass) and Darryl Paulson (guitar) - performed ‘Galilee’ for students at Valley Manor on Monday - a tune written on the shores of the Sea of Galilee discussed their instruments and what they can do and explained why their band doesn’t really need a drummer and how they compensate by adding their own percussion. Heather Mann, a music teacher at VMS said the students really enjoy having the group there. “We wanted the Slocan Ramblers to play for us so that our students could experience Bluegrass music
live - which they may have never had the opportunity to do before. Also, it was great for the students to see professional musicians play instruments such as the banjo, mandolin and bass that they probably haven’t seen or heard before. It was a wonderful experience!” The NLBOTMS also teaches music and dance at their summer music camps. “We teach old tyme dancing and it’s quite surpris-
ing how some young people have never had the opportunity to learn it. Once they do they absolutely love it,” Lalonde said. They have no preconceived notions about it and don’t see it as an exclusive pursuit of the elderly. NLBOTMS is working to make Saskatchewan a stop for bluegrass musicians. Their music festival runs August 18 to 20 at Ness Creek.

If we’re praying for another boom, we better be prepared By Todd MacKay Canadian Taxpayers Association That boom was fun – commodity prices soared and supercharged the Saskatchewan economy. But crashing prices have left a deficit-induced hangover. Nobody can control commodity prices, but we can control our reactions. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation has released a new study calling for the creation of a heritage fund. We need a plan to save non-renewable resource revenues in good times so that we have more stable investment income in tough times. And that plan needs the iron-clad protection of referendum requirements. Saskatchewan’s resource blessings also bring challenges. When prices are high and revenues go up, governments tend to increase spending, but expenses don’t come down when prices fall. When it comes to government spending, what goes up doesn’t necessarily come down. That doesn’t mean all of the boom spending was wasteful. The government paid down debt before it started borrowing again and dedicated resources to infrastructure. Of course, there’s also been waste; such as the government’s inexplicable decision to overpay by millions for land at the Global Transportation Hub. But this issue is about more than good spending versus bad spending; it’s about the pace of spending. This common-sense concept isn’t new. In 1978, the province set up a heritage fund, but the rules were weak and money flowed out of the fund almost as fast as it went in. Worse, the remaining money wasn’t invested to secure returns, but directed to various government projects. Ultimately, the deficits of the 1980s and 1990s consumed the remains. More recently, Premier Brad Wall asked former University of Saskatchewan President Peter MacKinnon to develop a plan for a heritage fund in 2013. At that point, non-renewable resource revenues were 26 per cent of the provincial income. Dr. MacKinnon acknowledged that it would be tough for the government to kick that kind of dependency and suggested simply capping it at 26 per cent and putting any remainder in a heritage fund. That plan hasn’t been implemented. But the dark clouds of low commodity prices have a silver lining: the government is learning to live with lower non-renewable resource revenues and that’s creating an opportunity to establish a heritage fund. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is recommending the creation of a Saskatchewan heritage fund based on three principles: 1) A referendum should be held to endorse the creation of a heritage fund and, once created, a referendum must be required to alter the fund in the future; 2) All non-renewable resource revenues in excess of $1.5 billion each year should be used to pay down debt, and, when the debt is paid, the payments should go into a heritage fund; and, 3) The principal in the heritage fund must be protected and only the returns on those investments should be spent. If Saskatchewan had deposited all non-renewable resource revenues above the $1.5-billion cap from 2005 to 2015, the CTF report estimates there could have been $13 billion in a Saskatchewan heritage fund generating investment income of $652 million annually. It may seem strange to call for a savings plan while Saskatchewan is struggling with a deficit. However, under this plan, the low commodity prices are unlikely to hit the $1.5-billion trigger in the immediate future. More importantly, implementing these recommendations will ensure there’s a plan in place if we’re blessed with another boom. Some may still object that we can’t afford to save, but if we can’t live without non-renewable resource revenues today, how will our kids live without those revenues while paying for our borrowing in the future? We’ve all seen the bumper sticker: “Please God – give us another boom, we promise not to [throw] it away this time.” If we’re invoking the aid of the Almighty through automotive adhesives, we should prepare for answered prayers. Saskatchewan needs to create a heritage fund and now is the time.

Spotting inequities between the sexes can be as simple as going to my neighbourhood gym and discovering the guys have a steam room and the gals do know. But here’s the thing: pores are actually gender neutral. While we may be lulled to sleep for most of the year when it comes to gender equality, International Women’s Day awakened us again to the reality that all is not yet well in the equality scales. Perhaps the most notorious example of gender bias and sexual stereotyping in Canada is the recent case of a Canadian judge who asked a rape victim during a sexual assault trial why she didn’t just keep her knees together. Justice Robin Camp came under fire and his actions were subsequently reviewed
by the Canadian Judicial Council, which recommended he be removed from the bench. Among other concerns, they found him seriously lacking in impartiality. He also made the mistake of calling the 19-year-old victim “the accused” several times during the trail. Camp resigned earlier this month. How this could happen in Canada is unfathomable. It seems like an obvious relic from the past, entirely incongruent with the present, but it happened. Camp insists women be the gatekeepers even when they’re being violated. Making the victim responsible reveals a deep ignorance or a willful blindness to the power imbalance in sexual assault. National Post columnist, Christie Blatchford, found it astonishing that in Canada, judges like Camp, who had been a commercial litigator, could be appointed to criminal law. How can they be expected to manage the com-

plexities of sexual assault? Complexities no doubt exist in sexual assault cases, but that is not what we have here. It doesn’t matter if Camp had subsequently shown a willingness to be educated. It doesn’t matter if the victim’s credibility came under scrutiny. What was said was wildly inappropriate regardless of the circumstances. It should have been clear to Camp what was patently obvious to everyone else – that the ‘knees together’ comment was ridiculous. Camp lives in society. Was he that out of touch? Apparently so. Sexual behaviour may well be one of the best measures of gender equality. We see the most egregious behaviour against women in nations where the power imbalance between the sexes is the greatest, where women are regarded as property and their every move is controlled. We see it in intimate partner relationships too. Saskatchewan has the highest

rate of domestic violence in the country. One of the common aspects of relationships with domestic violence is that men regard their wife as their possession. They can be extremely jealous and controlling. Judge Camp has a little more spare time now, perhaps to spend in the steam room. The way forward for the rest of us begins by viewing women as people rather than property or possessions. There’s a great song from the movie, “First Wives Club” called “You Don’t Own Me.” Stars Diane Keaton, Goldie Hawn and Bette Midler sing it like an anthem. Equality grows when women lose the desire to merge their identity with a man, to be a possession. Education is needed. But once you’re a provincial or federal judge, it’s a little late for that. If popular culture has not educated you, you are asleep at the wheel, or in this case, on the bench.

REALITY CHECK
Young drivers learn the ugly truth about vehicle collisions By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Only eight per cent of Saskatchewan drivers are teenagers, but they run the highest risk of being involved in a serious or fatal collision, according to Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI). SGI Traffic Safety Community Relations Coordinator Jackie Bosch said the government insurance company’s statistics show teen drivers account for 10 per cent of collisions, 10 per cent of major collisions, and 13 per cent of fatal collisions in the province. That’s a statistic that needs to change, said Bosch. “We all want kids to make smart choices when it comes to driving,” she said. “In order to do that, they need to know what the consequences are of distracted driving and impaired driving.” Several hundred high school students from Dalmeny, Martensville and Warman got a first-hand look at the causes, and aftermath, of collisions during a “Safe Driving for the Next Generation” workshop held Friday, March 17 at Speedy Collision in Martensville. Organized by Speedy Collision co-owners Rob Keet and Heather Laing Keet, the event was aimed at promoting safe driving habits. “Our goal is to make everyone more aware of the dangers of distracted driving and impaired driving, as well as give the students a close-up look at what hap-
tion can be fatal.” Slack warned students to be especially wary of “blind spots” such as the windshield pillars, and to always double-check for pedestrians. Slack utilized three student volunteers from the audience to illustrate the effects of impaired driving by having them wear goggles designed to distort their perception. He said drugs, including marijuana, have a similar effect. Martensville Fire Department (MFD) Captain Ryan Cross described the process of extricating a crash victim from a vehicle while other MFR members pulled the doors off a donated vehicle using specialized power tools. Cross said new vehicles have many airbags and sensors that are designed to protect occupants in the event of a collision. But they can also be dangerous, he added. “Airbags deploy instantly, and they go off with a bang,” said Cross. “They pack a tremendous force and can injure or kill a person if not used properly.” MFD First Responder Heidi Huziek explained the role of medical emergency personnel, and encouraged students to learn basic first aid procedures. Rob Keet explained to students the steps involved in reporting a collision, depending on its severity, and making an insurance claim following the incident.
pens in a real-life situation when there’s a collision,” said Heather Laing Keet. “We’re very happy with how the day went, with all the cooperation from the police and fire department and SGI, as well as our sponsors. “If this helps save a single life, then it was definitely worth it.” Tracy Church of SGI said all drivers need to be aware of the changes to the law that came into effect earlier this year. There is now “zero tolerance” for alcohol and drugs for drivers 21 and under, and for all new drivers. The new law also has provisions for a three-day vehicle seizure for experienced drivers that are caught with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of between .04 and .08 on a first offence. The SGI officials noted that vehicle insurance is voided if the driver involved in a collision is impaired. Student volunteers from the audience learned how easy it is to lose control of a vehicle while texting using a video game driving simulator provided by SGI. RCMP Constable Jay Slack, one of the speakers at the event, said driving is a big responsibility that demands a person’s full attention. The key to safe driving, he said, is to remain calm and focused behind the wheel. “A vehicle is a 5000-pound weapon,” said Slack. “You have to be careful about what you’re doing all the time.

Builder expands into Tiny House market By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Tiny Houses have earned a lasting place in the housing market over the past few years. As a result, more builders are looking to expand their product line to include Tiny Houses. One of those builders is J & H Homes, a Saskatoonbased company that has served the area since the 60s. Vice president, Jonathon Neufeld, understands the appeal of the Tiny House. “People want to own a property but they don’t want to be tied to a massive mortgage for the next 20 to 30 years,” said Neufeld. Neufeld believes they’re a good option for a lot of people. They can own a property and still have the financial flexibility to do other things, like travel. “We’ve seen Tiny Houses pick up steam over the past few years in North America,” he added. Interest has proliferated through TV shows about Tiny Homes and through a growing movement that seeks a minimalist lifestyle. J & H was proud to present their first Tiny House at the Home Styles show
at Prairieland Park from March 9 to 12. The 225 square foot model attracted a lot of attention. The home features a small living area, a good-sized modern kitchen, a bath with shower, a sleeping loft, innovative storage solutions and a covered deck. It even has a Tiny Dog House to match. “It turned out really well,” said Neufeld. “We’re really happy with it. We put in a lot of the high end products that we put into our Ready To Move (RTM) homes.” The home has high-end cabinets, quartz countertops and composite siding. “It’s definitely not an entry level unit but we wanted to showcase some of the options that people could do with it.” A perk of the Tiny House for some buyers is that reduced square footage opens up the option to add more luxurious finishes. Because J & H Homes is already in the RTM market, getting into Tiny Houses seemed like a natural fit for the company, Neufeld said. “More and more people are looking for unique types of housing products and a lot of them are smaller products, so we thought we’d get into it and see what kind of
interest there is.” Neufeld suggested that some of the best applications for Tiny Homes in Saskatchewan are as an extra guesthouse out at the cabin or as extra rooms for seasonal workers on the farm. J & H Homes will build for buyers’ desired use whether it’s to plug in a unit at the lake or to live off the grid, for those who want to be completely self-sustainable. Neufeld said diversifying into Tiny House construction is the kind of thing the company founders might have done. “One of the things that’s been successful for us is we’re not afraid to diversify. We’re small enough that we can make changes on the fly and if there’s a need in our market we can adapt and fill that need,” Neufeld said. Tiny Houses are still a relatively new thing in Saskatchewan, so it’s difficult to predict demand. “I would be equally surprised if we sold 5 or 25,” he said. Demand could increase in the near future. A Tiny House community is currently ramping up their efforts to get established, either in Saskatoon, or just outside its boundaries.

Wildcats advance to Peewee AA finals By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Warman Wildcats advanced to the SHA Peewee AA provincial final after a 7-1 victory over the Saskatoon Titans on Monday, March 20, in Warman. “It’s very rewarding for the boys. They’ve put in a lot of hard work ... and every player deserves the victory, they earned it. It feels great to go to the final and I know the boys are super excited,” coach Mark Campbell said. Warman also earned a 7-6
overtime victory in Game 1 of the best-of-three series, and even though that game was close, Game 2 was a different story. Campbell said nerves played a factor in that first game, but the Wildcats came ready to play in the second game of the series. “They knew they had a lead in the series so there was no pressure and then a quick start always helps the team,” Campbell said. The Wildcats scored thirty-two seconds into the
game and ended up netting three more goals. Warman led 4-0 going into the middle frame. That first goal sparked the team and gave them confidence throughout the period. “The boys were extremely pumped once they got that lead and they wanted to hold onto it,” Campbell said. Even though Titans didn’t score in the second period, they played a lot better and had a couple of chances to get on the scoreboard, after the Wildcats found them-
selves in penalty trouble. “When you start killing penalties, sometimes you get a little passive and passive isn’t our style. We’re more successful when we’re aggressive and fast,” Campbell said. Warman was able to play that way in the final period and as a result scored three more goals to win in convincing fashion. Throughout the game, Campbell was glad to see all

Hague trails in provincial final By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Hague Royals just fell short in Game 1 of the SHA Midget C provincial final, dropping a 3-2 decision to the Carnduff Junior Red Devils on Saturday, March 18, in Hague. Hague actually led 1-0 going into the second frame after Emett Lehmann scored in the opening period. Some costly mistakes led to three unanswered goals for the Red Devils. “I saw way too many giveaways. I think I counted over 20 giveaways in our own zone and just on their sticks. Two of the goals they scored ... we were just clearly giving it to them and that’s too easy, we can’t do that,” said Hague coach Trevor Miller.
Regarding the turnovers, Miller said the Royals were just careless and were “whipping” the puck without looking up. Carnduff had a chance to score more goals in the period, as the Red Devils had a four-minute power play. However, the Hague defence withstood the pressure and Royals goalie Peter Spence made some key saves. Teagan Zacharias netted one with just under a minute remaining in the frame, which pulled the Royals within a goal. Shortly after that goal, Carnduff committed a penalty which gave Hague momentum going in to the third period, as the Royals started the frame on the man-advantage.
“They were really looking forward to that (manadavantage) and their power play was really good there,” Miller said. Hague spent a lot of time in Carnduff’s zone generating pressure but couldn’t find the back of the net. The Royals had a golden opportunity to tie it up late in the contest, as they went on a power play with two and a half minutes remaining in the game. “I thought we should’ve had a couple of goals, (there were) good chances anyway. But it gave us some momentum and they’re (the Royals) confident (going into Game 2),” Miller said. Excluding the second period, Miller thought the Royals played well throughout the game.

they limit the turnovers and play the way they did toward the end of Game 1, they should have a good chance of earning the win. “If we play our game, play like we did in the third period and if we can get a few bounces and get
more traffic to the net, I think we could definitely win. It’s going to be a good series and they’re (Carnduff) a good team too,” Miller said. Game 2 is scheduled to be in Carnduff on Saturday, March 25.

Peewee Marauders fall in provincial final opener
By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Martensville Marauders showed a valiant effort but fell 4-2 to the Swift Current Broncos in Game 1 of the SHA Peewee A provincial final, on Sunday, Mar. 19 in Martensville. Swift Current struck first in the opening period and Martensville responded later in the frame by tying the game. The Marauders were creating pressure right in front of the net and after a shot was blocked, Adam Giesbrecht collected the puck and from the slot, he fired it past the Bronco goaltender. Swift Current scored late in the period and the Broncos led 2-1 after 20 minutes of play. Martensville had the momentum in the opening four and a half minutes of the frame, generating scoring opportunities but couldn’t capitalize. Throughout the period, the Marauders continued to get the puck to the net, but couldn’t solve the Swift Current goaltender. The Broncos scored within the final minute to take a 3-1 lead, going into the third period. Martensville pulled within one goal early in the final frame, after Giesbrecht netted one on the power play. Shorty after that play, the Marauders were again right on the doorstep and were very close to tying the game. “We had the momentum, and we just didn’t get

It happens in hockey, sometimes it goes our way, sometimes it doesn’t. This the first time it hasn’t gone our way,” said Martensville coach Stew Pearce. Around the midway point of the period, the Broncos recorded another goal and led 4-2. The Marauders’ power play came up big toward the end of the period. They were able to kill a penalty and now only trail by two goals going into the final game of the two-game, total goals series. It was the first time the Marauders lost in the pro-
vincial tournament and the only time they were held to fewer than four goals, but Pearce expects the team to score more in Game 2. “They’re (Swift Current) a very good team, I’ll give them credit for that. We knew it was going to be a battle. ( It’s the) two top teams in the province and we’re going at it hard. So we’re not going to give up ... and we’re positive that we can comeback,” Pearce said. One of the strengths of the Marauders team is their speed and how quick they move the puck down the ice. Pearce believes the size of the Swift Current rink is an
advantage for Martensville. “I know the rink we’re going to is a little bit wider, so if we can get them moving, I think we can beat them. They (Swift Current) were getting tired at the end (of Game 1), so I think we’ve got them (beat) if we just get our legs back this week. We’ll be prepared,” said Pearce. Game 2 will be in Swift Current on Sunday, March 26.

Local Chiropractor enjoying experience with professional sports team By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca Warman resident and Chiropractor Dr. Riley Broker’s second position in the medical profession is an one-ofa-kind experience as he‘s the Saskatchewan Rush Lacrosse Club’s official chiropractor. Broker works at Pro Sport Rehab and Fitness in Warman and once this opportunity came to his attention, he knew he couldn’t pass it up. The Rush are the defending National Lacrosse League (NLL) Champions and Broker is responsible of making sure that they are able to physically perform at their highest level. Whenever a player needs adjusting after an injury or something flared up within the body because of a hit during a game, Broker helps fix that problem. This is Broker’s second year with the team and the regularity of when he attends to the athletes changed a bit. “Last year, I would go usually pre-game and adjust any player that wanted or needed chiropractic treatment,” he said. However, this season he only attends to the players if they’re in major pain and it’s affecting there performance when it comes to competing on game day.
“Sometimes that happens the night before, and sometimes we treat them at the hotel. We still treat them at the arena this year but more-or-less it’s when they need it more, than ... every (home) game,” Broker said. The injuries that he deals with are usually a result of getting checked and getting hit really hard. “A lot the of time they’re back (and neck) is a little jammed up. When you get a good movement through there it usually loosens it up and it makes them feel a lot better,” Broker said. What he means by an athlete getting “jammed up” is when a violent body movement occurs, like getting checked. That affects the muscles and the vertebrae from not functioning at an optimal state. And after an appointment with Broker he hopes the players are able to play without pain, which leads to better results on game day. “What I’m trying to do is loosen the muscles up, make the joint looser so it can function a lot better,” Broker said. Broker also received a 2016 championship ring, which surprised him and he said former team president Lee Genier made sure he obtained the ring. “I wasn’t expecting it, for them to do that for me it was
just very nice. It’s a very classy organization,” he said. Broker also attended the dinner the organization had in honour of winning the championship. He said he felt honoured to spend the evening with everyone who is apart of the organization, from the players to the front of office. “Just to get to spend an evening with them all, have supper and celebrate the championship was amazing,” Broker said. Before working with the Rush he also did some chiropractic work with the Saskatoon Blades as Pro Sport Rehab and Fitness is the main treatment facility for the team. This year, he hasn’t been too busy with the team, but if a player needs an adjustment right away he is still available to do that. “Whenever a player from the Blades needs any treatment, they usually come see somebody at pro sports, usually myself. We’re still doing work with the Blades on a ongoing basis with Pro Sports.” Broker said. He became associated with Rush when last year’s trainer was affiliated with Pro Sport and it made it that much easier for the players to get a massage or a chiropractic service if they needed to.
Pro Sport has two locations, one is Saskatoon and one in Warman. Broker works mostly at the Warman location. Broker is originally from Prince Albert and after he completed high school, he attended the University of Saskatchewan (U of S), where he earned his undergradute degree. After graduating from U of S, Broker went to the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic Association in Toronto. He spent four years in Toronto, going to school. After accomplishing that feat, Broker moved to Warman in 2013 and his job at Pro Sport Rehab and Fitness was his first as a licensed chiropractor. “I like that smaller (city), where you still sort of get a chance to know most people (in the community),” Broker said. “That’s why I thought Warman would be a great place to be and it seems it’s been like that so far. I’m very happy with our decision on where to live and work, so far.” With lacrosse growing at the minor level in Warman, the advice he has for the youth playing the sport is if they get hurt, assess the injury accordantly “Sometimes ... they want to go back (in the game) too soon. They should maybe just take that day off or take a couple of days off and try and let their body just heal,” he said. Overall, Broker is enjoying his time with the Rush and he said he wants to be involved with the organization as long as he can.

Horoscopes
FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY
CAPRICORN December 22– January 19
Capricorn, although life has been a bit hectic lately, you have managed to hold things together quite well. Others may even remark on how calm you have been.
AQUARIUS January 20– February 18
Aquarius, exercise caution, but try to avoid being overly suspicious of others who are trying to help. Let some things go and you’ll be happier for it.
PISCES February 19– March 20
There’s no need to rush a special project, Pisces. You have more than enough time to get it all done. Plan out your steps and dig in.
ARIES March 21– April 19
If you have been working too much, you have to find time to relax or you will not be able to grow. Your brain and body need recharging to work at their optimal levels.
TAURUS April 20– May 20
Taurus, be sure to follow through on any promises you made to others and yourself. Set aside some extra time to address each of these commitments.
GEMINI May 21– June 21
Gemini, work on honing your flirting skills. Whether you are attached or looking for new romance, think about the subtleties that will draw others close to you.
sudoku
CANCER June 22– July 22
Prioritizing goals and maintaining some flexibility are the keys to managing what life has in store for you this week. With the right mindset, you can handle a busy week.
LEO July 23– August 22
There is a time for buckling down and a time for having fun, and this is a great week to let loose. Plan an outing with friends or go on a solo holiday for pure enjoyment.
VIRGO August 23– September 22
Do not underestimate other people. There may be more to them than meets the eye, and you don’t want to be at a disadvantage in a relationship. Learn all the facts first.
LIBRA September 23– October 22
Be mindful of what you say and with whom you chat for a little while, Libra. While it’s good to be friendly, you may be sharing too much personal information right now.
SCORPIO October 23– November 21
Stop focusing on what you could have done differently in the recent past, Scorpio. Looking back is not going to change anything now. It’s better to focus on the future.
SAGITTARIUS November 22– December 21
Sagittarius, share more details of an important situation with others. They will need more than just bits and pieces as they try to help you figure out your next move.

MARTENSVILLE-WARMAN CONSTITUENCY
Saskatchewan Leads the Nation Again in Job Growth
Despite the slowdown in the resource sector has impacted government revenues for nearly three years, Saskatchewan is leading the nation with Canada’s highest rate of job growth. Of the 15,000 jobs created in all of Canada in February, 8,000 were created in Saskatchewan. Along with recent reports on retail sales, manufacturing sales and wholesale trade growth, the latest job numbers show the continued strength and resilience of Saskatchewan’s economy. While our economy is showing signs of growth, some difficult measures will need to be taken in the upcoming budget. Top of mind will be addressing our resource revenue shortfall, while working to encourage growth and investment to keep Saskatchewan strong in the years ahead. The benefits of growth and investment in Saskatchewan allow for greater investments in quality of life. This is something our government has pursued from the very beginning. In the past 10 years, we have seen lower taxes and strong economic growth, record investments in infrastructure and the public service, a reduction in the operating debt inherited from the previous government, and the largest population growth since the earliest days of our province.
Improving Access to Physicians
The recruitment and retention of medical professionals, particularly nurses and doctors, is another area where Saskatchewan continues to see success. Saskatchewan residents continue to benefit from better access to physicians with the addition of more than 750 new doctors over the past 10 years. This represents a 44% increase in overall physician numbers, and includes a 53% increase in specialists and a 37% increase in general practitioners. A number of recruitment and retention initiatives have led to the increase, including implementing the Saskatchewan International Physician Practice Assessment. This has resulted in more than 190 doctors providing services including 11 new internationallytrained physicians. More locally-trained physicians are also staying in the province after graduation, helping to boost the overall physician supply. Overall, the retention rate of family medicine graduates trained at the University of Saskatchewan has jumped from 58% to 93% over the past four years. In total, more than 2,500 physicians are licensed to practice in Saskatchewan. Gone are the days when Saskatchewan’s greatest export was the people and professionals who called the province home.

lines contribute to the scoring, as that will be important for the team to do heading in the final. “It’s great to see all of our lines scoring ... and playing a five man unit on the ice. When we have success, it feels good when everybody’s involved in that success.
When everybody contributes it just makes the job a little easier,” Campbell said. Campbell thought the Wildcats did a good job of sticking to their game plan of aggressive offense. Defensively, when Saskatoon had the puck, the Wildcats didn’t give them the chance to make that extra pass. “We know we’ve got our
hands full come the next round because we’re going to play Swift Current in the final and they’re the defending champions in Peewee AA. “So we know that it’s going to be a battle for us to win,” Campbell said. The final is a best-of-three series and Game 1 will be in Warman.

‘Bloody Murder’ spoofs murder mysteries By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca here is shooting. Bodies drop to the floor. But the play, Bloody Murder, doesn’t take itself too seriously. It spoofs the British murder mystery genre with comedic selfawareness. The ‘usual suspects’ descend on the lavish country estate of the hoity Lady Somerset for a grand evening – the naïve young woman, the mysterious Chinese gentleman, the fading actor with a penchant for booze, the countess, the rich matriarch aunt and her faithful maid and goodfor-nothing nephew. As the guests mingle and get to know one another, one of them suddenly dies of poison. Let the fun begin! Their mutual suspicion about ‘whodunit’ frequently turns hilarious even as the sense of intrigue deepens. The production was a directorial debut for April Watson with Warman’s Scared Scriptless Players. “Bloody Murder is a mix between Agatha Christie and Abbott & Costello,” she said. “It’s part murder mystery and part slapstick comedy.” The production had audiences laughing at the Brian King Centre where both evening dinner theatre and matinee performances ran from March 17 to 19. Watson was thrilled with all the hard work the actors
T
put in, as well as those who worked on costumes, lighting, and creating the set. “So much work has gone into it over the past two and a half months. All the actors are just phenomenal. Everything came together beautifully! It makes it so worthwhile,” she said. Watson said one of the most complex characters in the play was Lady Somerset, played by Liz Scott. “As our main actress in the play, Lady Somerset is a very complicated person. She seems to know something is going on and has all the clues and the background.” Scott was born and raised in the county of Somerset, England and was a great fit for the role. Each secret of each suspect are revealed as the play progresses. The nephew, played by Sean Sperling, is in fact a fake, but delivers his roguish oneliners convincingly. “I’m an embarrassment to the family, I’m proud to say.” When Lady Somerset says he wishes her premature death, he replies, “At this point it can hardly be considered premature.” The countess is also proven to have a false identity. Her ability to assume various roles in life has served her well. She’s the provocative siren, the lady in red who has mastered the art of seduction, played memorably by Meghan Lofgren. Lady Somerset brings in
satire here and there, at one point asking her guests to raise their right hand and make a promise. “I solemnly swear I will commit no more murders, at least for this weekend,” they repeat after her. The actors gradually realize that the writer of the play is in the play. He’s a well-known author, a master at the art of the murder mystery, played by Roger Heard. Now he has chosen to mix things up, keep things fresh. In the final minutes the play ‘breaks the fourth wall’ and there is some interaction with the audience. The actors look toward the audience, trying to see through the darkness, and one says, “So that’s why there’s no furniture on that wall!” “Basically the actors are trying to break away from their characters and break away from the story, and a whole bunch of shenanigans happen,” Watson said. Major Quimby (Heard) calls it ‘character assassination.’ Americans come in for some timely bashing as well. When all the characters realize the story has broken with the familiar murder mystery formula and speculation runs rampant, Lady Somerset exclaims, “Oh god! You mean we’ve been written by an American?” suggesting that was a truly ‘low-brow’ scenario.

Bloody Murder’s blend of comedy and murder mystery delighted audiences. Bloody Murder’s clever witticisms are delivered with just the right degree
of panache, with some convincing British accents. To appreciate the complex de-
velopments of the plot however, you really had to be there.
