P4G west area residents want out of growth plan

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca A group of residents in the Partnership for Growth (P4G) study area west of Saskatoon are unhappy with the plan for growth that has been proposed by the Regional Oversight Committee (ROC). The group has circulated a petition within the area, which was forwarded to Donna Harpauer, minister for Government Relations.

A copy of the petition shows at last 73 signatures were gathered to support it.

Wanda Dansereau, spokesperson for the group says they want to be removed from the P4G study area.

“The Partnership for Growth is a plan for the growth of Warman, Martensville, Osler and Saskatoon and the shrinking of the RM of Corman Park,” the petition states.

Dansereau said the city will never expand in their direction because of the

mines in the area. She identified an area south of Highway 16 and north of Highway 14, where the future Saskatoon Freeway is also expected to carve a path.

The P4G has mapped an area that extends four miles west of the Dalmeny Access Road, and the petitioners want it backed up to two miles west.

“They want to control us for waterways, wildlife, through-fares and stuff like that,” said Dansereau.

“That all sounds fine and dandy until it’s your land they’re confiscating to do that on.”

The group is concerned about property values and development potential. Residents feel that having extra stipulations on their land will create extra challenges.

The P4G has already indicated that any development within the Green Network Study Area will require screening to determine the impact on environmental

features.

The residents also believe the meetings of the ROC should not be held ‘in camera’ they should be open to the public. However, RM administrator Adam Tittemore said there is provision for the P4G to go this route.

“Under the Local Authority Freedom of Information Act, long-term planning is one of the acceptable reasons to go in camera. The other justification is because of the fluctuations in land values speculation this could potentially have.”

The ROC is meeting on March 31 and the petition will be one of the items on the agenda, according to chair, Alex Fallon. “The P4G Group is aware of the petition, and other comments received from the public through the engagement process. We are currently working through the comments and these will be discussed in detail at the next P4G Regional Plan Re-

Federal budget aggravates deficit, warns Kelly Block MP

The federal budget unveiled Wednesday, March 22 is a going to hit Canadians in their pocketbooks, according to the Member of Parliament for Carlton Trail - Eagle Creek.

Kelly Block issued a statement criticizing the federal Liberal government’s second budget shortly after it was introduced in the House of Commons.

Block said the budget confirms Canadians’ fears that the government is continuing its “high-tax, high-spend, high-deficit” ways.

“I am disappointed that the Minister of Finance is busy indebting future generations with his spending spree

rather than supporting hard working Canadians and job creators,” said Block.

Prime Minister so he can continue to fund flawed Liberal ideas.”

Block said she has met with hundreds of constituents over the past year and no one wants the federal government to tax and spend the way this budget proposes.

“This is not a budget for Canadians,” she said.

“The Finance Minister has failed to provide Canadians with a plan to return to balanced budgets. By failing to do so, the Prime Minister and his Finance Minister have shown incredible disregard for Canadian taxpayers.

“This is another expensive budget for Canadians.”

gional Oversight Committee meeting on March 31.”

Speaking on behalf of the Ministry of Government Relations, communications consultant Dan Palmer says local governments, like the RM in this case, have the legislative authority and responsibility to consider all community interests when developing proposals for land use planning.

The residents want to arrange a public meeting with the ROC to present their concerns.

“The Ministry of Government Relations understands stakeholder consultations are being planned by the P4G Regional Oversight Committee (ROC),” said Palmer.

Vehicle breaks through ice, driver escapes

By TERRY JENSON tjenson@ccgazette.ca An early morning attempt to cross the South Saskatchewan River at the Clarkboro Ferry nearly cost the driver of a half-ton his life.

Warman Fire Rescue was dispatched to the river at about 7:30 Sunday morning, March 26 and found the truck’s engine and passenger compartment fully submerged in the icy water approximately 60 meters from the west shore.

Two ice rescue technicians quickly suited up and plunged into the frigid water for a closer look and determined, to the best of their knowledge, the truck was not occupied.

MD Ambulance arrived on scene as a precaution, while Warman RCMP and Corman Park Police Service began their investigation. It is believed the operator was attempting to make the crossing at about 4:00 a.m. when the ice gave way.

Approximately an hour later and once it was determined there were no occupants in the vehicle, police, firefighters and paramedics left the scene.

Shortly before noon, salvage operations began to try and recover the vehicle. However, an attempt to secure a chain onto the rear of the truck was unsuccessful and the truck broke through another section of ice and became fully submerged.

One of the personnel attempting to hook the chain up wound up in the water and was able to pull himself to safety with the help of two coworkers.

Saskatoon Fire Department divers were expected to be on scene Monday to assist with the recovery of the truck and police continue to investigate.

Firefighters were able to walk to within a few meters of the truck before entering the water and determining the truck to be abandoned.

Corman Park absorbs budget impact with some unknowns

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca As municipalities across the province try to assess the impact of the provincial budget, the RM of Corman Park reported they had already priced it in.

“We wanted to be overly cautious on the revenue side of things,” said Adam Tittemore, RM administrator.

“In general, the drop in our provincial revenue sharing and grant in lieu, which includes the RM and organized hamlets all in one, from 2016 to 2017 is $80,339.” The RM

had in fact budgeted for a slightly greater drop.

Tittemore said their 2017 budget for grant in lieu remained the same. “We weren’t expecting to lose our grant in lieu.” He said the biggest portion of the RM’s grant in lieu is SaskTel whereas the cuts were to SaskEnergy and SaskPower so it wasn’t a big hit for them.

But it was surprising. “It’s a tough one for the province to send down because it would just be downloading that responsibility,” said Tittemore. “If these provincial crowns are going to have fa-

cilities that require municipal services they should pay their fair share.”

On the expense side, there are a few unknowns that will likely be resolved in the coming weeks. Regional libraries lost funding in the provincial budget, and the RM, which supports the Wheatland Regional Library through levies, does not yet know what the impact of this loss of funding will mean to its bottom line.

Other impacts to the RM’s expenses relate to PST changes and how those will affect supplies and

labour. In addition, the RM had made application for some capital grant programs at the end of 2016, and it’s currently unclear whether those projects will be approved for completion in 2017. One of those is for the paving of Township Road 384 that extends from the south entrance to Warman to the Main Street of Martensville. Another is for an irrigation project along Valley Road.

The RM allocated some Municipal Reserve Funding at their March 27 council meeting in response to requests from a couple of

communities for their projects. Luisa Giocoli and Chris Mason, from the new joint use schools in Martensville – Lake Vista and Holy Mary – requested funding for playground equipment. They asked for $80,000 and received $25,000 from the RM to share between the two schools.

The RM also heard from Nancy Martin and Jennifer S-Proctor from the Langham Skate Park committee who were seeking $30,000 for their project. The RM agreed to provide $12,500 for that project.

Province commits to new K-12 school in Rosthern

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A new K-12 school will be built in Rosthern to replace the existing elementary and high schools, both of which have serious structural deficiencies due to their age.

The announcement was contained in the provincial budget unveiled by Finance Minister Kevin Doherty on Wednesday, March 22.

In a phone interview following the budget speech, Education Minister Don Morgan confirmed the project is a priority for the coming year.

“As we went through the budget finalization process, it became very apparent that there is an immediate need for a new school in Rosthern,” said Morgan. “It is definitely at the top of the list.”

The government also announced a new school for the community of Weyburn.

Morgan said a total of $2.1 million worth of planning dollars has been allocated for both projects. Construction funds will be allocated at a future time. He noted the planning process for the Rosthern school, which will be a “traditional build” by the Ministry of Education and not a P3 project, is likely to cost about $1.5 million. The project includes the demolition of the existing schools. It is not clear at this point where the new school will be located. Environment Minister Scott Moe is the MLA for Rosthern constituency. He said discussions on the need for a new school have been ongoing for many years, and he’s happy to see the project get the go-ahead.

“The dollars are committed to start this project,” Moe said. “It takes about a year to go through the community consultations, de-

sign process, and tendering process. Construction will begin as soon as possible.”

Rosthern Mayor Dennis Helmuth said the new school is badly needed.

“It’s readily apparent that these facilities are at the end of their life cycle,” said Helmuth. “They’re literally crumbling. Our school population is growing considerably, and there is a lot of opportunity in our town and region. We need more capacity to accommodate that growth.”

Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) Board of Education Chair Larry Pavloff said the announcement is “extremely good news” for the community and the school division.

“We couldn’t be happier to hear that,” said Pavloff in an interview on March 23, the day after the budget. “We have been repairing and patching both those

buildings for many years, but they’ve gotten to the point where patches don’t work anymore. A new building is needed as soon as possible.”

Rosthern town councillor

Kate Kading said the community and school division have a long-standing partnership.

“A number of years ago, we had built a hall attached to the elementary school un-

der a joint-use agreement,” said Kading.

“We’re in discussions now about the possibility of that facility being incorporated and utilized in any new building.”

Langham councillor resigns; byelection in the works

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A byelection to fill a vacancy on Langham town council will be held later this spring as a result of the resignation of councillor Korbin Myer.

Myer submitted his resignation on Wednesday, March 22.

Langham Mayor John Hildebrand said Myer’s resignation, which is effective immediately, has been accepted by town council, and the date for the byelection will be set as soon as possible. A motion to that effect is slated to be on the town

council’s agenda at its regular March 27 meeting.

Myer’s resignation was submitted nine days after the Langham town council’s regular meeting on Monday, March 13. At that meeting, a majority of council members endorsed a resolution advocating the town pursue legal action to remove Myer from his council position.

The March 13 council meeting motion calling for Myer’s removal from council alleged “conflict of interest” as the reason for the action. At that meeting, Myer challenged the alle-

gations as being unfounded and the process as being unfair.

Two additional resolutions were also passed at the March 13 council meeting: one removing Myer from council committees and the other calling for the town to apply to the provincial Ombudsman for an investigation into the matter.

Myer’s subsequent resignation allows the town to drop the legal action, said Hildebrand.

“This was the outcome that the majority of council hoped would occur,” said Hildebrand.

Prairie View School’s School Community Council (SCC) is providing a kindergarten readiness workshop for the community of Dalmeny.

This interactive workshop “Come Experience what Kindergarten is all about!” is for parents with children entering Kindergarten in the fall and will be held on Tuesday, April 11 in the library at Prairie View Elementary School.

Full details of the event

are available by calling the school (306-­254-­2633).

All kindergarten children are screened early in the school year to identify their strengths and needs in the areas of social skills, academic skills, speech and language development and motor skills. Kari Schmiedge, the school’s speech and language pathologist, Aaron Bates, the occupational therapist, and Kelsey Dahl, the Kindergarten teacher, will discuss age

appropriate child development and share some ideas on ways parents can prepare their child for a successful kindergarten experience.

The purpose of the School Community Council is to support student learning success and well-­being and encourage parent and community involvement and engagement in their school.

Budget cuts take big bite out of municipalities

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Saskatchewan’s towns and cities are scrambling to backfill $36 million in provincial funding that was “clawed back” in the provincial budget.

Richard Beck, a Warman city councillor and Northwest Director for the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA), said cuts to the Grant In Lieu of Taxes (GILT) program will hit many communities, including Martensville and Warman, very hard.

“The provincial budget was expected to be tough, but even SUMA was unprepared for the crisis some of our members now face,” said Beck. “More than 100 of our members were ambushed with massive cuts that negate any sense of relief we felt over the revenuesharing formula surviving intact.”

Beck said municipal revenue-sharing is being “effectively gutted” for urban municipalities by provincial government downloading and revenue clawbacks.

“The province is taking $36 million from more than 100 SUMA members,” he said. “What good is revenue sharing if you are losing up to half the amount through the loss of grants in lieu, as Yorkton is?”

The effect of the clawback is immediate, he said, noting that municipal councils and administrations will now have to find alternate sources of revenue or cut core services.

“Our budgets were basically set,” said Beck. “This shortfall means we have to go back and re-do the documents.”

Calculations by SUMA show that while the provin-

cial 2017-18 revenue-sharing grant to Warman is $2,076.640; the elimination of the GILT portion will cost the city $108,413, meaning the actual revenuesharing grant is reduced to $1,968,227.

Martensville is also being hit, losing $96,,441 in GILT funding from its overall revenue-sharing grant of $1,817,531; leaving its actual 2017-18 revenue-sharing grant at $1,721,090.

Beck said other communities in the northwest region losing GILT funding include: Lloydminster ($191,031), Meadow Lake ($68,296), Rosthern ($26,123), Delisle ($22,319), Langham ($16,628), Asquith (12,772) and Duck Lake ($9,073) Beck said SUMA was also blindsided by the government’s decision to eliminate the Saskatchewan Transportation Company (STC), and also by the massive cuts to funding for libraries. He said the Wheatland Regional Library system could lose up to 59 per cent of its operating grant this year. Municipalities will be called on to fill that gap, or face cuts to library hours and services, he said.

In addition, he noted, the increase in the PST to 6 per cent will increase municipalities’ costs.

Beck said municipalities can’t simply withdraw funds from existing reserves to cover the shortfall. The reserves, he noted, were established to ensure long-term funds are available to maintain and replace essential infrastructure.

The impact of the GILT program cuts on municipalities dominated a SUMA board strategic planning session in Regina on Friday, March 24 in the wake of the provincial budget.

Warman clinic a step closer to reality

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A business plan is currently in the works for a proposed nurse practitioner (NP) led clinic in Warman.

The clinic, designed to complement existing medical services in the city, could improve accessibility to health care providers while alleviating pressure on hospitals in Saskatoon.

The clinic would also provide students at the University of Saskatchewan College of Nursing with practical experience while facilitating ongoing research aimed at improving community health services

across the province.

An agreement between the city and the college of nursing to pursue the project was signed last fall.

A community needs assessment for the proposed clinic is currently in its final stages, according to Mary Ellen Andrews with the College of Nursing.

In a presentation to the Warman City Council Committee of the Whole meeting on Monday, March 20, Andrews said the final report from the community needs assessment consultations, as well as a business plan for the proposed clinic, should be ready to present to city

council in a few weeks.

U of S College of Nursing Interim Dean Dr. Beth Horsburgh said the NP-led clinic would provide good value for public health care dollars because the focus is on preventive health care in addition to providing primary care.

“The data from existing NP-led clinics across the country shows that the cost per patient seen is between 18 to 40 per cent less than traditional clinics,” she said.

“There are also better outcomes per patient.”

Horsburgh said the project does not necessarily involve a separate clinic building.

“Were not looking to build a new facility,” she said. “It doesn’t necessarily have to be all under one roof. There are many possibilities, and we can utilize technology in a lot of ways.”

She said the planning group for the proposed clinic is collaborating with health professionals in the community as part of its risk management plan.

“We don’t want any unintended consequences,” said Horsburgh. “We certainly don’t want existing physicians to feel disenfranchised. Communication is very important to this project.”

New drone rules apply in Warman, Martensville

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Recreational drone users who fly their machines within nine kilometers of an airport are now obliged to follow strict guidelines.

To the surprise of many residents of Martensville and Warman, these cities fall within that nine-kilometer radius rule set down by Transport Canada. A small portion of Dalmeny’s southeast town limit that is also on the edge of the limit.

The dirt-strip Martensville airfield on the west side of Highway 12 that accommodates small aircraft qualifies as an “aerodrome” under the federal guidelines.

Warman Fire Chief Russ Austin says people need to realize the days of unrestricted drone flying within city limits are over.

“No one can fly an un-

manned aerial vehicle (UAV) in Warman in a way that violates the new federal rules,” said Austin in a presentation to Warman City Council’s committee of the whole meeting on Monday, March 20. “If your UAV weighs more than half a pound, the law applies.”

Austin said the new law, which came into effect very recently, was prompted by two incidents in which drones interfered with passenger aircraft at major airports.

Recreational drones weighing between 250 grams and 35 kilograms are subject to the following rules. Operators must: * restrict their drones to a maximum altitude of 90 meters above the ground, * keep at least 75 meters away from buildings, vehicles, people, animals, and vessels,

Warman council okays code of ethics bylaw

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A bylaw establishing a code of ethics for councillors was given all three readings at the Warman City Council regular meeting on Monday, March 27.

The bylaw is based on recommendations from Bill 185 - The Municipal Conflict of Interest Amendment Act. Guidelines from the Ministry of Government Relations were used in the preparation of the bylaw.

The new rules governing conflict of interest for elected representatives are the result of a recent case involving the RM of Sherwood, near Regina. All municipalities in the province are required to adopt code of ethics bylaws that comply with the provincial legislation.

5-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN

Warman city council adopted a five-year capital plan outlining municipal projects slated to be undertaken between 2018 and 2021.

Projects on the list for the 2018 budget year in-

clude widening of Centennial Boulevard ($1 million), an agreement with developer for Lift Station #9 ($2 million), and a $500,000 allocation for a future lift station and drainage measures.

Major projects in 2019 include additional traffic signals ($1 million), construction of 6th Avenue Phase 2 improvements ($1.25 million), allocation for future lift station and drainage ($500,000), allocation for future waste water solution ($500,000).

A total of $5 million in funding for a second ice surface for the Legends Arena has been earmarked to be spread over two budget years: 2019 and 2020.

The specific allocations for various projects are subject to change depending on budget factors. The five-year capital plan is a guideline used by council and administration for future planning.

The implications of recent provincial budget cuts in funding to municipalities may have an impact on some decisions.

NOTICE OF PREPARATION OF ASSESSMENT ROLL

Notice is hereby given that the assessment roll for the Town of Aberdeen for the year 2017 has been prepared and is open for inspection in the office of the assessor from 9:00am to 12:00pm and 1:00pm to 5:00pm on the following days: Monday – Friday, March 31 to June 1, 2017.

New rules for drone flights in areas within nine kilometers of an airport are now in effect * stay at least nine kilometers away from a forest fire, * avoid flying at night or in clouds, * keep the drone in sight at all times and stay within 500 meters of the drone, *ensure the owner/operator’s name, address and phone number are clearly marked on the drone, * avoid areas where the drone could interfere with police or first responders.

Transport Canada states that the new rules are aimed at protecting lives, aircraft and property. Failure to abide by the rules can result in fines as high as $3,000.

Austin said Warman Fire Rescue (WFR) has its own drone, and is licensed by Transport Canada to fly

higher than 90 meters within city limits, but it must file a flight plan ahead of the flight.

He said several WFR firefighters recently attended a pilot ground school and wrote a Transport Canada examination to qualify for their operator certificates.

While they are operating the WFR drone, they must have a radio that allows them to listen to air traffic controllers at the Saskatoon airport tower, and when an aircraft comes into the specified zone, the UAV’s altitude must be lowered.

Austin said a public education campaign is being initiated to make people aware of the new rules. The rules are available online at www. canada.ca/drone-safety .

Provincial budget blindsides municipalities The honeymoon between the provincial government and the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association DEADLINE (SUMA) is definitely over.

Admittedly, any honeymoon SKIPPY Chokecherries that lasts a decade is likely to get a bit stale. But SUMA sure wasn’t expecting to have the door slammed in its face.

The provincial budget released on Wednesday, March 22 not only caught SUMA officials by surprise, it squashed their fingers in the doorjamb. In addition to the small reduction in annual revenue-sharing grants, which they expected; municipalities also got walloped by a $36 million cut to the Grants in Lieu of Taxes (GILT) program, which they definitely didn’t expect.

Provincial crown utilities SaskPower and SaskEnergy own and operate assets on properties in towns and cities across the province. These publicly-owned crown utilities don’t pay taxes on those properties to the municipalities where they’re located, because under the law, municipalities can’t tax a senior level of government. To compensate municipalities for the loss of that tax revenue (as well as other factors) from SaskEnergy and SaskPower, the provincial government provides grants to municipalities under the GILT program.

Or rather, the province used to do that.

The provincial budget unilaterally ended that funding.

Just like that. With no warning.

Restructuring the GILT program to eliminate grants in lieu of taxes for SaskPower and SaskEnergy was a big blow.

Saskatoon and Regina are now both facing a $10.7 million hole in their operating budgets for the coming year as a direct result of the loss of the GILT grants, according to a chart released by SUMA on Friday, March 24.

The City of Martensville lost $96,441 in GILT grants, and the City of Warman is looking at a drop of $108,413. Rosthern’s hit is $26,123; Delisle’s loss is $22,319; Langham has to make up $16,628; and Asquith’s hit is $12,772.

Ouch! That hurts.

Small wonder SUMA members are upset. They were counting on those ongoing annual grants as part of this year’s, and future years’, budgets.

Now they’re going to have to make up that shortfall either by raising property taxes or cutting core services like fire protection, garbage pickup or street maintenance.

Dipping into reserve funds to cover the shortfall, as suggested by the Premier and other Cabinet members in the days following the release of the budget, is a bad idea. For one thing, those municipal reserve funds are specifically meant to pay for the maintenance and replacement of infrastructure in future years. It was the provincial government, by the way, which legislated that municipalities have to set up and fund those reserves.

SUMA issued a statement on social media (which was reported in the regular media, which is where I ran across it, since I don’t pay attention to social media), that the provincial budget “has devastated and ambushed our members, making you out to be the bad guys if you raise property taxes (because what other option do you have?)”

Ah, yes. Exactly.

The provincial government, to make itself look good, has downloaded part of its deficit problem onto the municipalities, thereby saving taxpayers $36 million.

Except that it’s not saving anybody anything.

That $36 million is still coming out of the same taxpayers wallet. It’s just that the wallet is in a different pocket.

And municipalities don’t have the option of offloading.

They also don’t have the option of running a deficit budget; that privilege is reserved for senior levels of government like the province and the feds. Municipalities have to balance their books every year.

So when your annual tax bill arrives in your mailbox or e-mail box in a few weeks time, and you happen to notice that you’re paying more this year for the municipal portion of your property taxes, keep in mind that it’s not entirely the fault of the municipality. A big chunk of the tax hike is due to the sneaky tactics of the provincial government.

And you might also want to keep in mind that the province is also responsible for the hike in the education portion of your property taxes, which will also be included in your municipal tax bill.

In the budget, the Saskatchewan government set education mill rates that will result in $67 million more in property tax revenue. At the same time, it reduced its grant allocation for school funding this year by $22 million. So you’ll be paying more in education property taxes, but schools will still feel the squeeze.

Provinces headed down very different budget paths COMMENTARY This year’s provincial budgets unveiled by the Saskatchewan and Alberta governments bear a striking resemblance to two professional sports teams going in completely opposite directions.

On one hand, you have the government here in Saskatchewan making the tough choices. Veteran players with high salaries that don’t reflect their play are being released (Saskatchewan Transportation Company is the biggest name) and nearly the entire roster – including the leading scorer (grants in lieu to municipalities) are taking a slash in salary.

The government in Saskatchewan is re-building their roster with a formula of ticket price increases, releases, cuts, and salary tweaks in hopes it will

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

If you or someone you know has been involved in an event you think is newsworthy, please include your name and contact information (either a daytime telephone number and/or email address). Please send the information in a timely manner following the event and remember to include as much pertinent information as possible, including WHO was involved, WHAT was the event, WHEN and WHERE the event occurred and WHY the event was significant.

PHOTO GUIDELINES & TIPS

All the information that goes with a news story should also accompany photo(s) as above. Include the names of all the people in each photo and identify from left to right and from back to front. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the final outcome of the photo in print. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a builtin zoom lens extended will capture “grainy” images that do not reproduce well. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot.

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

Premier Brad Wall has enjoyed several years of unrivaled popularity, to be sure.

But, he has also had to use up some of his voter equity in the process of trying to ride out a prolonged resource revenue drought.

Premier Rachel Notley, however, never did have any political capital amongst the voters in Alberta. Trying to spend their way out of an economic quagmire is something ripped from the federal Liberal playbook and Notley & Co. seem to be completely comfortable mortgaging the province to the hilt.

Wall has a couple of more budgets left in his term to show his path to prosperity for the province is the best one.

Notley does not and, ironically like the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 2013, needs results now or her term will be nothing short of a colossal failure.

But, like any professional sports franchise, there are the dyed in the wool fans who stick with their team through the good times and the bad. There are also bandwagon jumpers and those are the ones Wall and Notley must pay attention to if they have any hope of sticking around and having their contracts renewed.

Blumenheim residents to tap into Intervalley water pipeline

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca It’s been a long time coming, but residents of the hamlet of Blumenheim, northeast of Osler, could be receiving potable water by way of a rural water utility pipeline by this fall.

Intervalley Water Incorporated (IWI) has 11 subscribers in the Blumenheim area, enough to justify extend-

ing the subscriber-owned and operated utility into the community, according to IWI Vice-Chair Glenn Beatty.

“Over the last couple of years, there has been a fair amount of discussion around the board table, and tonight we’re announcing that we are expanding the IWI lines into Blumenheim,” said Beatty.

Speaking at the IWI’s annual general meeting on Wednesday, March 22 at the Bethel Christian Reformed Church in Corman Park, Beatty said construction of the line fulfills a promise made to Blumenheim subscribers back when the utility was first organized several years ago.

“IWI made some promises, but circumstances were

SUMA urges province to restore grants

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The provincial government is trying to tackle the deficit in the wrong way, says the President of the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA).

During a press conference in Regina on Tuesday, March 28, Gordon Barnhart said the cuts to the Grant in Lieu of Taxes (GILT) program will have a serious negative ripple effect on towns, cities and villages across the province.

He noted municipalities are already “sharing the pain” through the reduction in funding built into the revenue-sharing formula. The GILT program cuts, he noted, were unexpected and severe.

“The budget is unfair and unacceptable,” said Barnhart. He added municipalities can’t cover the funding shortfall from reserves, because those funds are meant for emergencies and for long-term management of infrastructure assets.

Reserve funds are also

needed when municipalities apply for cost-shared infrastructure programs.

“We have to put up the funds to cover our share of the cost of infrastructure projects,” he said. “If we don’t have that we can’t take advantage of infrastructure programs.”

Barnhart said he is optimistic the government will listen to SUMA’s concerns and reverse the cuts. But, he added, SUMA is also exploring the possibility of a legal challenge in partnership with the cities.

such that we just couldn’t deliver to Blumenheim originally,” said Beatty. “Now we’re pleased to be in a position where we are able to bring water to those customers.”

Beatty said IWI has a contractor lined up for the pipeline expansion, and the board expects water to be flowing to curbstops in the community before freezeup.

“As soon as the weather warms up and the frost comes out of the ground, we’ll get that work started,” said Beatty. He said he is hopeful that once the work begins, more residents of the area will become subscribers to the line.

COULD RELOCATE LINE

Beatty said IWI is putting forward a proposal to relocate a portion of its waterline that would be impacted by the new Highway 11 overpass slated to be built near Warman.

He noted the engineering firm in charge of the overpass project has been re-

ceptive to the water utility’s concerns, and he said he’s hopeful the proposal will be accepted.

“We don’t want to have any interruptions to the flow of water if we can possibly avoid it,” said Beatty.

“We want to move our lines outside the construction zone. In the long run its to everyone’s benefit.”

IWI Board Chair Anthony Nienhuis said in addition to relocating the line, the utility is making other investments in its infrastructure to ensure protection for existing customers and to prepare for future growth.

Nienhuis noted that IWI is in excellent financial shape, and said this is a good time to make the necessary investments.

Nienhuis said the utility is looking for ways to increase its water allocation from SaskWater so it can meet future demand.

WATER RATE HIKES

IWI Treasurer Geoff Booth said SaskWater is hiking rates by 9.5 per cent

this year and a further 9.25 per cent next year to its customers.

However, the IWI board has chosen to soften that rate hike this year for its approximately 355 subscribers.

“We are holding the line this year at 5 per cent,” said Booth. “The IWI will eat that other 4.5 per cent increase this year. We feel we can do that because we have enough of a margin built in and the utility can absorb that.”

He said the utility’s board will make a decision on next year’s increase later this year.

IWI ELECTION

James Johnston and Norm Greer were elected by acclamation to the IWI board at the utility’s general meeting. Nienhuis, Beatty, and Booth along with Jason Kornlius, Murray Grismer, Nora Bueckert and Terry Sorowski are also on the board. Dave Goss and Chris Kehrig completed their terms on the IWI board and opted not to seek re-election.

Dear Residents: The purpose of our newsletter is to provide all residents in Warman & area with information as to what is happening in business, sport and our community. We believe it is important that as a learning and highly-involved community, we share this information with everyone. Please feel free to call Jennifer (306-933-2210) if you have suggestions or information for our newsletter.

Hello from Mayor and Council, “Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship”....Buddha National Doctor’s Day is an internationally recognized event which is held annually around the world. The purpose behind this day is to recognize and show appreciation to our physicians for their dedication and work in our community.

In Canada, the day is recognized as Doctor’s Appreciation Day. Take note: MARCH 30th - Doctor’s Appreciation Day In local and provincial news, the healthcare shortages are being felt in many areas of our province. As our province and communities grow and develop there is an increased need to attract, employ and retain physicians. The Physician Recruitment and Retention Committee was created in order to provide support and assistance to investigate and discuss how these shortages were impacting our communities and what, if anything, could be done to help alleviate these issues.

In the City of Warman, on March 30, 2017, the Physician Recruitment Retention Committee will be visiting the Gama Clinic to say “thank you”. We will be showing our appreciation to our Doctors by personally delivering gift bags filled with goodies.

The gift bags are compliments of local businesses and the City of Warman.

We encourage residents to stop by and share your own special thanks. Let’s support and be grateful for the commitment of our local physicians and their support staff!

“It is true that a good physician treats the disease; the great physician treats the patient who has the disease.”….William Osler Respectfully submitted, Mayor Sheryl Spence Protective Services Committee Report Protective services in Warman have been busy in the opening months of 2017, with items to report from Warman Neighborhood Watch, Warman Fire and Rescue, WERT, and the RCMP. The Neighborhood Watch has had some great success in the last few months. They have followed up on 4 files that have resulted in arrests, thanks to the involvement of members. This shows everyone that this program is working and is successful in our community. With continued community involvement and support, it will keep on working.

The City have also received news that our application for a 9th municipal member has been approved. The hope is that once the paperwork is complete we will see the position filled quickly.

This extra position is a testament to how fast Warman is growing. Warman has been working with our RCMP partners to add new positions as we grow in order to keep our community safe,

rather than adding positions in a reactionary way as our crime rate rises. This allows our RCMP partners to continue to do great work for our community and to keep us safe without struggling to obtain resources for resources with a soaring crime rate.

WERT continues to add members and conduct training. Recently members of WERT received training in CPR. This program has been widely successful and continues to garner donations from corporate sponsors. WERT would like to thank Affinity Credit Union, Northern Strands, I Deal to You Thrift Store and Trinity Safety for their contributions to the success of this volunteer organization. Contributions have been used for purchasing resources, such as an emergency trailer stocked with supplies, backpacks for the volunteers and has provided training to the volunteers on the WERT team. Thank you to everyone who volunteers, contributes and dedicates their time and resources to the WERT organization Warman Fire Rescue is a great source of pride for our city. We have a dedicated group of volunteer firefighters that serve our community. They have top notch training under their belts and with the recent approvals at the RM of Corman Park, they have added to that ability to train with a training structure out at their training grounds which is located on the other side of Highway 305, at the end of Centennial Blvd. Work is also underway on an expansion of the fire hall, which will bring all the equipment indoors and easily accessible in case of an emergency. They have also purchased a drone for emergency use, and have noted that there are new regulations that have been passed at the federal level. This will mean that their drone is the only one that should be in the air in Warman. Any other drone in the air should be reported to the RCMP. Respectfully submitted, Councillor Trevor Peterson Protective Services Lead Recreation and Culture Committee Report The Recreation and Community Services Department has been extremely busy and will continue to be so over the next few weeks as the winter season comes to a close. Our City’s recreational facilities have been very busy hosting a number of larger events that showcase our community and the first class facilities we have here in Warman. The list below is just a snapshot of a few of the events that our city has hosted in the last couple of months: Skate Saskatoon Skating Competition Warman Osler Skating Carnival Scared Scriptless Dinner Theatre Community Association’s Diamond Dinner U12/U14/U16 Sask Volleyball Tournaments Warman Adult Volleyball Tournament Children’s Wish Foundation Fundraiser WHS Cheer Classic WHS Wrestling Tournament WHS Provincial Wrestling Tournament WHS Robotics Event WMHA Hockey Tournaments As our programs and community groups transition from those winter activities to the spring/ summer ones, our facilities are still playing host to a number of major events. We look forward to hosting the Western Canadian Bantam AA Championships, March 29th - April 2nd at the

WSCV Community Hockey Tournament, April 7th & 8th, both events taking place at the Legends Centre Arena. Also approaching quickly is the WSCV’s Annual Hockey Draft taking place April 13th at the Legends Centre.

It is very important, as many activities come to a close for the season, to take the time and recognize the many volunteers that show such great dedication to commit so many hours and put forth such efforts to ensure our community has the many recreational opportunities that it has. To all those volunteers, we appreciate all that you do!

As the City enters into another fiscal spending year, the Recreation and Community Services Department has been allocated $3,955,500 for 17 capital projects and purchases. These projects and purchases are selected as a priority to ensure the City continues to provide quality recreational services to our residents, examples include: construction of Phases 3, 4, & 5 of Prairie Oasis Park, construction of Linda Schafer Park, Development of Cenotaph, base construction for Train Monument Parking lot, replacement of Diamond Arena Zamboni, PSSD Playground Donation, GSCSD Playground, Reserve allocation for future Aquatic Centre.

The Spring Summer Leisure Guide has hopefully found its way into everyone’s mailbox earlier this month. If you did not receive a copy one can be picked up at either the Legends Centre or City Hall. The Leisure Guide is filled with plenty of information on programs, special events and activities taking place in our community and recreational centers. There is also a complete listing of local community groups to ensure you have every opportunity to register you or a family member in that desired activity. Registration is open for all city programs; you can register in person at the Legends Centre or online.

Respectfully submitted, Councillor Kevin Tooley Recreation and Culture Lead

As always, do not hesitate to call your Mayor or Council if you have questions, suggestions or just want to chat. We always welcome conversation with the residents of this great city.

Province eliminating STC bus service The Saskatchewan Transportation Company (STC) will cease operations at the end of May. Crown Investments Minister Joe Hargrave announced on Wednesday, March 22 that the government has decided to end all operating and capital subsidies to STC. Freight will continue to be accepted for delivery until May 19, and passenger services will cease on May 31.

“As ridership has declined and costs have increased, STC’s subsidy has reached unsustainable levels,” Hargrave said. “STC’s per pas-

senger subsidy has grown from $25 per passenger 10 years ago to $94 per passenger today.”

Hargrave said over the next five years, STC is forecasted to require more than $85 million in subsidies to continue operating. He said the government felt that money would be better invested in other areas.

A total of 224 staff will be impacted by the closure.

STC suspended a majority of scheduled routes across the province March 22 and 23 to inform employees about the winding down of the company.

Marauders win Bantam A crown

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Martensville Marauders are the Bantam A provincial champions, after a 6-2 victory over the Prairie Storm on Saturday, March 25, in Martensville.

Martensville ended up winning the two-game, totalgoals series 10 goals 7.

The last time a Martensville team won the provincial title was during the 2005-2006 season. And fans were happy to see this team win.

“It’s a hockey town, there are hockey people here and they live and breath the game. You can see the people in the rink and you see these people for years now,” said Marauders coach John Kachur. “You become a hockey family and that was

the message to the boys, we’re not just a hockey team, we’re a hockey family.”

Even though the Marauders were trailing in the series going into the game, Kachur said they were not worried about the score and were just focused on winning the contest.

“We had three really good practices and it was probably our best week of practice all year ... and the message was clear, we just need to win the game,” Kachur said.

Ty Albrecht scored around the midway point of the period, as he capitalized on a rebound right in front of the net.

However, shortly after that goal the Storm tied the game up. Later in the frame, the Marauders were on the penalty kill, but Martensville

created some pressure in front of the net, which led to a shorthanded goal from Albrecht.

Martensville led 2-1 after 20 minutes of play.

Two and a half minutes into the second period, Holden Doell netted one. The Storm started to feel the pressure as they began to play a little bit more physical to take the momentum away from Martensville.

Cole Duperreault scored the Marauders fourth goal of the game on a wrap-around goal, after Martensville won a face-off in Prairie’s zone.

The Storm switched goaltenders after that goal.

Martensville’s penalty kill was tested throughout the period as the Storm had a four-minute power play and few other man advantage op-

! s g n ti s i L New

portunities. The Marauders scored another shorthanded goal when a Storm player left the puck behind the net for a teammate, but didn’t see Albrecht, which led to a turnover and another Martensville goal.

Prairie scored late in the period, but Martensville led 5-2 going into the final frame.

Again, the Marauders found themselves in some penalty trouble as the Storm were on a five-on-three power play at one point in the period.

“We had a tough night with having to kill a lot of penalties. But again, it was something we actually worked on (in practice) and (I’m) glad we did because it paid off. Our game all year has been pressure and even

on the penalty kill,” Kachur said.

Martensville scored an empty netter late in the game to go onto win the provincial title.

“It’s been a special group all year and we had a lot of faith in them. They’ve risen to the occasion a lot this year in big games and (I) didn’t’ expect anything different tonight,” Kachur said.

From the beginning of the hockey season, Kachur had a feeling this team was going to have success as he saw the potential in what the group could achieve.

“I said that from the very first parent meeting, and I said it from the very first meeting I had with the players. If we’re ready to work this year, there’s no limit to what we can achieve,” Ka-

chur said.

The Marauders fell short in their league playoffs as it was going on the same time as the provincial tournament, but Kachur was happy with the way the season ended with this win.

“It’s tough to flip the switch and play different games, but I’m really proud of the way they responded in this (provincial tournament).”

Overall, the Marauders had a successful season. In the four other tournaments they played in, they won the A-final in three of them.

The Martensville Peewee A Marauders also had a chance to win a provincial title, but they lost 10-2 to Swift Current in Game 2 of their two-game, total-points series.

Pauli sets speed-skating short track ablaze

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Daniel Pauli froze out all but one competitor at the Canada West Short Track Speed Skating Championships. The Warman youth placed second overall at the meet for the second consecutive year. It’s a repeat of last year’s performance at the same event in Edmonton.

Saskatoon played host to 117 skaters from across western Canada at the event, at the SaskTel Centre, March 17 and 18. Pauli secured more points when he won the 3000-metre race on Sunday afternoon. His cumulative point total over the two days earned him the second spot.

“Daniel is the kind of a kid that can go 10-second laps, whereas everyone else starts mentally breaking down after about five of those, because they think they can’t go any further,” said Saskatchewan speed skating coach, Tim Comfort, adding that the 13-year-old had a very good shot at winning. “Daniel just keeps going. Part of that is physical but part of that is mental.”

The head game starts right after the go signal as skaters immediately begin jockeying for position, eyeing each other for a breakout move. They may skate in packs for several laps

before someone sprints into the lead. It’s a bit like car racing. Once someone has captured the lead, it’s hard for anyone else to unseat them.

“When you race cars, if you can get behind someone you’re in the draft and that’s totally what speed skating is,” said Comfort.

“They’ll go behind you for 18 laps and then in the last two they’ll cruise past you like it was easy, because they’ve been resting.”

In a 20-lap race, if you’re in the lead with 14 laps to go you earn points, and if you’re in the lead with seven laps to go, you earn points, he said.

Black pucks mark the course. Skaters who venture inside the pucks are disqualified. Falls also mean a loss of points. If they happen early in the meet, the consequences are more serious than if they happen later. For some skaters who are newer to the sport and new to the competition, not getting lapped may be the strategy. Comfort said while it’s not a great strategy, it is nevertheless a strategy. If skaters get lapped before eight laps to go, they have to stand in the middle of the track and watch the rest of the race.

As skaters made their laps, Comfort leaned over

Some kids have real difficulty pushing their limits. Daniel is so good he makes everyone skate harder.

the ice from the coach box and calls out support.

“Stay clean” he says. His son Joshua is one of them.

It’s a family sport. Comfort made the trials for the Olympics in 1975. “I was two people away from it.

But I hurt my back lifting weights and ended up quitting.” He says his wife is the real skater. “She was on the national team for 10 years and two Olympics.”

Also taking their turns on the ice were Ceili and Kiera Bracha from Warman, another skating family. Their Mom, Lenita, is the president of the Saskatoon Lions Speed Skating Club, and their Dad often runs the elec-

Wildcats fall short in Peewee AA final

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca It was a close matchup in the SHA Peewee AA provincial final between the Warman Wildcats and Swift Current Southwest Terminal Broncos, but Warman lost in two games of the best-of-three series.

The Wildcats didn’t lose by more than two goals in each game.

The Wildcats fell 7-5 in Game 1 at the Legends Centre on Friday, March 24 and lost 7-6 in Swift Current during Game 2 on Sunday, March 26.

In Game 1, Warman jumped out to an early lead, eight seconds into the contest. The Wildcats won the opening face off and quickly went to work. Mesele Klassen skated into the Swift Current zone and quickly fired the puck, which went past the goaltender.

Swift Current responded four minutes after that goal by tying the game, while Warman was on the penalty kill. However, around the midway point of the pe-

riod Warman scored a power play of its own. The Wildcats were moving the puck really well in Swift Current’s zone, making the defence move and Klassen netted his second goal of the game off a rebound.

Warman’s lead didn’t last too long as the Broncos once again tied the game. Shortly after that goal, Swift Current took the lead for the first time of the contest.

Late in the period, Klassen earned the hat trick, after his slap shot went into the net and the game was tied at three goals going into the middle frame.

After a scoreless second period, the Broncos netted three consecutive goals within the first five minutes of the third and Swift Current led 6-3. Parker Lalonde scored on a breakaway goal to bring the Wildcats within two goals.

A few minutes after the halfway point of the frame, Swift Current was creating a lot a pressure by crashing the net, which led to a Bronco goal.

Warman won the ensuing face-off, which led to Lalonde’s second goal of the games.

The Wildcats had plenty of time left in the period to

Senior Girls Wolverine Basketball – Wrap-up

The Senior Girls had a very successful season. The team finished the season ranked #5 heading into Regional Playoffs. The Girls defeated Balgonie on Friday night to advance to the final on Saturday, against 4th ranked Weyburn. The Girls had a lead at halftime, but were unable to come away with a victory, losing 56-54. Some tears were shed, as the team gave it their all. So close to Hoopla, but the team will have to wait until next season to try again.

Sr. Boys Basketball

The Senior Boys Basketball team had a very successful season. They concluded their season on March 18th at regional playoffs in Moose Jaw. They entered day one with a lot of enthusiasm and intensity. They battled hard and kept the game within a few points until the 4th quarter, eventually losing to Meadow Lake. On day two we played Notre Dame in a consolation game. The game started close but it didn’t take long for the boys to crank up their defense and come out with a great win to end the season. The coaching staff would like to thank the players and their families for all the support throughout the year. We thank our grade 12’s for their contributions to the program and wish them the best of luck in the future. The team experienced a great deal of growth this year. We are already looking forward to adding a few new pieces and carrying over that momentum into next season. Coach Broughton and Coach Johnson

Deobald placed 18th in the vault, 16th in the bars, 13th in the beam and 16th in the floor events, out of 19 competitors, and she finished with an overall score of 32.099. Loewen finished in 16th, 15th, 19th and 14th place, and Taggart placed seventh, 18th, 17th and 19th in those respective events.

Loewen had an overall score of 32.049 and Taggart finished with a score of 31.366.

This was the second competition overall for those three athletes, as they just started in the Junior Olympic program this past fall.

Tumblers Gymnastics head coach Mark Kurmey was happy with the way they performed.

“Each of them did really well and all three of them had personal bests,” he said.

“They had one competition earlier this year, (and) they’ve all improved about two points each ( in their overall score). So they did really well for themselves,”

TOWN OF DALMENY NOTICE OF PREPARATION OF ASSESSMENT ROLL

Notice is hereby given that the Assessment Roll for the Town of Dalmeny for the year 2017 has been prepared and is open to inspection in the office of the Assessor from 9:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 - 5:00 p.m. on the following days: MACKENZIE HIENTZ | CLARKS CROSSING GAZETTE

Rylee Taggart performers her floor routine during the Can-AM Personal Best Competition in Saskatoon on Saturday, March 25 Kurmey said.

Deobald and Loewen participated in the recreational program at the Tumblers Gymnastics Club when the gym first opened in 2015, in Martensville and this is Taggart’s first year of gymnastics altogether.

One of the main objectives going into this competition was to improve from their previous scores and that is what they did, which Kurmey was happy to see. Even

though they didn’t finish in top of the competition, they were able to improve.

“They’re right on track, this is exactly what we expected,” Kurmey said. “To compare themselves to somebody who’s been doing gymnastics for four years versus one year is difficult to do. We want to always look at our personal best and continue to get better.

My job is to maximize their potential and their job is to

just enjoy gymnastics and get better at it.”

There are two more competitions before provincials and to qualify for that event the athletes have to have a personal best score of 32.5.

Kurmey believes they will achieve that score at the next competition.

Between competitions and throughout the year, Kurmey said the girls train 12 hours a week to perfect the skills that they’ve learned.

Monday to Friday, March 31st to May 31st, 2017 A bylaw pursuant to section 214 of The Municipalities Act has been passed and the Assessment Notices have been sent as required.

Any person who wishes to appeal against his or her assessment is required to file his or her notice of appeal, accompanied by a $200.00 appeal fee which will be returned if the appeal is successful, with: The Assessor Town of Dalmeny Box 400 Dalmeny, sK s0K 1e0 by the 31st day of May, 2017 Dated this 31st day of March, 2017.

This Clavet player works their way to the net during the annual Warman High School Prairie Spirit Cup on Wednesday, March 22. In this game, Clavet defeated the Warman 3 team 9-8.

There were two other Warman teams and the other schools that competed in the tournament were Hague, Aberdeen and Waldheim. The tournament is a great way for the students to compete against their classmates and other schools and it’s an opportunity for them to play the sport in an enjoyable environment. During the tournament, each team played two games and there was no round-robin or playoff round. The event concluded with a staff vs. students matchup and the teachers won 11-8. All of the games were played at the Diamond Arena in Warman.

Library trustees lament cuts A 60 per cent reduction in operating funding to the seven regional library systems across the province will seriously impact many communities, according to the Saskatchewan Library Trustees’ Association (SLTA).

In a news release issued March 24, the

SLTA said the provincial budget’s $1.3 million cut in operating grants to municipal libraries in Saskatoon and Regina is also of concern.

“It was a huge disappointment that libraries were not forewarned or consulted, given the severity of the bud-

“We feel immediate collaboration is required,” concluded the SLTA news release.

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, MARCH 30, 2017

Budget cuts impact education, says CUPE The provincial cuts to K-12 education are larger than expected, and CUPE education workers are worried about how the cuts will impact children in Saskatchewan.

The 2017-2018 Saskatchewan budget, released on March 22, cut operating funding to school divisions by 2.6 per cent on a school year basis. Twenty-seven out of 28 school divisions are facing cuts between 2.6 and 8 per cent.

The total funding reduction for the K-12 sector is $54.2

million, which assumes a 3.5 per cent roll back of wages across the board. Wages are still subject to collective agreements, and any changes must be negotiated at the bargaining table.

“Budget cuts have real consequences for children.

Our K-12 education system has already faced years of inadequate funding.

Programs have been cut, schools are falling into disrepair, and some divisions have already had to lay off staff. And instead of properly investing in our children

and their education, the provincial government has chosen to cut funding,” said Jackie Christianson, chair of the CUPE Saskatchewan Education Workers’ Steering Committee. “The largest cuts in the education budget are to frontline staff such as teachers and support workers! The ripple effect of this devastating budget will hurt many.”

Many school boards are dealing with increased enrolment and more complex student needs, including an influx of new immigrant

students who have English as an additional language need. Vulnerable students need an increased number of dedicated educational assistants, not fewer, to successfully integrate into the school system.

“There is simply no way you can slash the number of staff dealing with special needs students, slash the numbers of workers keeping our schools clean and safe and running smoothly, and expect the same quality of education for our kids,” said Christianson.

PUBLIC NOTICE Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Corman Park No. 344 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw No. 09/94, known as the R.M. of Corman Park Zoning Bylaw.

INTENT a) Proposed Bylaw No. 05/17 will rezone from Agricultural District (AG) to Agricultural Residential 1 District (AR1) the lands described below. Proposed Bylaw No. 05/17 will provide for the creation of one (1) new agricultural residential parcel. b) Proposed Bylaw No. 06/17 will provide for textual amendments to the R.M. of Corman Park Zoning Bylaw. The purpose of the amendments is to include a definition and development standards for both “Work Camps” and “Temporary Uses”. This amendment will also allow for “Work Camps” to be a Discretionary Use in the Agricultural (AG), Agricultural Residential (AR1), Commercial (C), Rural Industrial Park 1 (M1), and Rural Industrial Park 2 (M2) Zoning Districts. c) Proposed Bylaw No. 08/17 will provide for textual amendments to the R.M. of Corman Park Zoning Bylaw to clarify that the development standards for “Agricultural Tourism Uses” allow them to be ancillary to a rural environment as per the definition for “Agricultural Tourism Uses” in the R.M. Zoning Bylaw. d) Proposed Bylaw No. 10/17 will rezone from Agricultural District (AG) to Agricultural Residential 1 District (AR1) the lands described below. Proposed Bylaw No. 10/17 will provide for future residential development on the parcel. e) Proposed Bylaw No. 11/17 will rezone from Agricultural District (AG) to Rural Industrial Park 2 District (M2) the lands described below. Proposed Bylaw No. 11/17 will provide for the disposal of the railway right-of-way parcel by Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) and allow for the continued use of the site, for loading and unloading of rail cars and rail car repair.

AFFECTED LANDS a) The affected lands are all that portion of NE 12-38-8-W3 shown shaded on Map 1 (Bylaw 05/17). b) The affected lands are all lands contained within the Municipality with the exception of the area included in the Corman Park – Saskatoon Planning District (Bylaw 06/16).

MARTENSVILLE-WARMAN CONSTITUENCY

Budget 2017: Meeting the Challenge

The 2017-18 Provincial Budget is about decisions that will make our economy stronger and more competitive while dealing with the challenge of lower resource prices.

As you know, resource revenue in Saskatchewan has declined more than $1 billion and has stayed low for three years now, depleting reserves and the rainyday fund.

Due to the resource sector slowdown, tax revenue is down by hundreds of millions and a decade of record population growth is putting pressure on vital services.

We must move away from our level of reliance on resource revenues while ensuring important government programs and services are affordable and sustainable.

Our commitment to controlling and reducing government spending includes $250 million in total public sector compensation savings, consolidating 12 regional health authorities into one, holding health spending to a 0.7% increase and winding down STC and Executive Air Service.

The 2017-18 Provincial Budget ensures Saskatchewan taxes remain fair and competitive. Modernizing and expanding the system will secure a more stable revenue base to help sustain valuable services such as health care, education, social assistance and capital investment.

This means increasing the PST rate to 6%, expanding the PST base and eliminating some exemptions.

Education Property Tax will be rebalanced to fund 40% of K-12 education costs. To mitigate the effect of these changes, the Saskatchewan Low-Income Tax Credit is being enhanced.

Starting this year, we are shifting away from taxes on income and productivity by lowering personal and business income tax rates. Everyone at every income level will pay less income tax and individuals and families in Saskatchewan will pay among the lowest income taxes in Canada.

Saskatchewan still has the lowest PST rate of any province with a provincial sales tax. And even with these changes, every Saskatchewan resident at every level of income will still be paying significantly less in income tax and PST combined than they did in 2007 under the NDP. Low taxes and tax incentives create a tremendous advantage in attracting new investment and jobs to our province, and the introduction of new growth tax incentives means Saskatchewan will have the lowest corporate tax rate and manufacturing and processing tax rate in Canada.

This Budget also includes investment in priority areas such as health, education and social services. This includes funding for overcapacity and ER wait times in Regina and Saskatoon as well as $3.7 billion will go to schools, highways, bridges, hospitals and Crown infrastructure.

At a time when resource sector challenges remain, there are signs of confidence and renewal in our economy.

Recently, we learned Saskatchewan was leading the country in job growth.

A few weeks ago, Saskatchewan was named the best place in the world to invest in mining.

Crop production has surpassed 30 million tonnes for four consecutive years, and ag exports have doubled over the past decade.

Our population continues to grow. 17,000 more people in the past year means that we’ve grown by 163,000 in the past decade.

Budget 2017-18 is a plan that ensures growth continues, that reduces our reliance on resource revenues, and returns the budget to balance in three years.

You can learn more at saskatchewan.ca/budget.

Many of the changes announced are difficult but we must ensure that our core government services like health care, education, and social services are affordable and sustainable for the long-term.

While other governments have decided to delay tough choices by simply running deficits indefinitely, history has shown that leads to even tougher choices later. We will not do that.

Together, we can and will meet this challenge. We will return the budget to balance while ensuring Saskatchewan’s economy maintains its strong leadership position in Canada.

Roy Petit elected Chief of Beardy’s & Okemasis FN

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Improving social and recreational facilities and expanding economic development are key priorities for the newly-elected Chief of the Beardy’s & Okemasis First Nation.

Roy Petit was chosen to lead the community during an election on Friday, March 24. Six councillors were also elected, including three incumbents and three newcomers. They include Jeremy Seeseequasis, Kevin Seeseequasis, Edwin Ananas, Tyrone Smallchild, Jackie Gamble and Leighanne Gardipy-Bill.

Petit, who served as a councillor for the past three years, said he decided to run for Chief after being encouraged to do so by others in the community.

“I had many people ask me to throw my hat in the ring,” said Petit. “I was happy that they felt I had done a good job on council for the past three years.”

But it was his late mother’s blessing that sealed the deal for him.

“My mother passed away in August of last year,” he

said. “She told me that one of the things she hoped I would do is run for Chief.

That really had a big impact on me, and I knew this was something I had to do.”

Petit said his best memories of childhood are those days spent on the Beardy’s & Okemasis First Nation.

Even though he grew up mainly in foster care off the reserve, he said he always considered Beardy’s & Okemasis as home.

“I grew up at a time when if you were married off the reserve you lost your rights,” said Petit. “My mom was part of that process of getting her rights back.

My father was a Metis man from Duck Lake. The majority of my brothers and sisters got their treaty rights back in the early 1990s.”

Petit returned to Beardy’s & Okemasis for good about 15 years ago to work and make it his home. He worked as a human resources training officer, helping residents write resumes and find employment.

Petit said he was happy with the voter turnout, noting it was similar to most communities during last

fall’s municipal elections.

There are about 2,200 registered voters for the First Nation, and 908 of those voted in the election.

Petit said the new council will build on several initiatives put in place over the past few years.

“We’re shooting for economic growth and development that is self-sustaining,” said Petit. “We have a lot of agreements already underway that we are hoping will bring financial stability to the band, so we’re not as reliant on the little money we get from the federal government.”

Petit said the new constitution, executive act and financial management act will allow the first nation to have more control over education and land management.

He said the Blackhawks Esso location on Highway 11 has a lot of potential for expansion, particularly if it is tied to a larger tourism initiative.

The newly-elected council for Beardy’s & Okemasis First Nation includes (back row, left to right) Councillor Jeremy Seeseequasis, Councillor Kevin Seeseequasis, Councillor Edwin Ananas, Councillor Tyrone Smallchild (Front row) Councillor Jackie Gamble, Chief Roy Petit, Councillor Leighanne Gardipy-Bill (Photo submitted by Beardy’s & Okemasis First Nation) He noted the recent Specific Claims treaty annuity was a “long time coming,” and said the long-term benefits should start to become apparent in a couple of years and continue well into the future.

An “immediate priority” for the council is to improve recreational and social amenities in the community. Pe-

tit said in addition to promoting sports like soccer and hockey, an increased emphasis will be placed on lacrosse.

“We want to create a healthy community,” he

said.

The First Nation is also pursuing regional partnerships with nearby communities in areas such as fire protection, drainage, and waste management.
