Naber Ford wins 17th President’s Award Treating their customers like their friends and neighbours has paved the road for Naber Ford to win Ford Motor Company’s highest national honour 17 times in the dealership’s 25 year history. Naber Ford was once again recognized with the 2011 President’s Award by the Ford Motor Company of Canada. The award is Ford Canada’s highest dealership honour and is presented annually to dealerships that demonstrate outstanding achievement in sales and customer satisfaction. The award is a nice touch but co-owner Tim Naber said that the important part is what it signifies -- that people are leaving the dealership as satisfied customers. “It is a big deal for Ford but for us it is everyday common business practices that earn it. We are in a small community so we want to treat everybody like our friends and neighbours, not like a number,” said Naber. The award is based on customer feedback by way of surveys conducted by the company. Each time a person makes a purchase or has service work done at a Ford dealership, they are mailed or emailed a customer survey. The ratings from the completed surveys are compiled and each dealership is given a score.
The Naber Ford team responsible for earning the dealership its 17th Predidents Award from Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited.

Attitudes about drugs need to change, RCMP Sergeant A pair of drug busts over the weekend has Shellbrook RCMP Sergeant Carl Dinsdale concerned about attitudes surrounding the drug trade in the community. He said he is surprised by the attitude that marijuana and trafficking are victimless crimes. “You think it’s a harmless activity but you have to understand that there isn’t any dope sold in this province that isn’t controlled at some point by organized crime,” said Dinsdale, adding that these criminal organizations often engage in violent turf wars, operate prostitution rings and have involvement in human trafficking. He has also noted a trend of using marijuana and driving in the area.
“Let’s clarify that, if you are smoking marijuana and driving you are still impaired. It is not just limited to an alcohol issue,” said Dinsdale. Shellbrook RCMP charged one young offender on a charge of possession for the purpose of trafficking. The youth was found in possession of 52 grams of marijuana, over the limit for personal use of 30 grams. In a separate incident on the weekend, RCMP also seized a quantity of morphine and ecstasy in the process of another investigation. Further details were not available at press time.
Chronicle scheduled for update The Shellbrook Chronicle will have a new look when it hits the newsstands August 3. The paper will be updated from the front cover to the classified section to create a more modern look and increase readability while continuing to provide news coverage of the events of the region. According to Publisher Clark Pepper, the update was spurred by a need to modernize the Chronicle. “It was simply time to update the paper to better serve our readers. It will still be the Chronicle readers have known for the last 100 years, it will just be easier to read and more organized,” said Pepper. The Chronicle contracted newspaper design consultant Ed Henniger to help with the upgrade and after months of collaboration with Chronicle staff, an updated design was born and is set to be
launched August 3. The updated Chronicle will feature new, easier to read typefaces, changes in the way that stories and photos are laid out and more consistency in regular columnist and feature placement. Overall, the expectation is a smoother, easier newspaper reading experience with a little more esthetic flair. Despite the change in masthead design, the Chronicle will incorporate the same typeface that has identified the newspaper since its early beginnings. This has been incorporated as a reminder that even though the paper is moving forward it maintains its roots to the past. Readers can contact the Shellbrook Chronicle at 747-2442 with their comments on the updated design.

Scotiabank gives senior hockey a boost
A pair of Shellbrook based senior hockey teams cashed in big as a result
of matching grants from Scotiabank. The Shellbrook
Elks and the Shellbrook Silvertips received cheques matching funds raised
through 50/50 draws and the annual senior hockey team four person scramble golf tournament held June 23. The Elks took home a total of $2872 in grant funding which was a mixture grants matching proceeds from the club’s
50/50s and from the golf tournament. The Shellbrook Silvertips received a cheque for $4,478, matching funds raised at the golf tournament. Both teams will put the funds toward the operation of their respec-
tive championship teams. The Elks won both the SHA Provincial Senior A title and the Fort Carlton Hockey League championship in the 2011-12 season while the Silvertips won their first Beaver Lakes Hockey League championship.

This has been one fun summer Rider Insider
The highlight of the heatwave came this past Saturday at Mosaic Stadium where, just before the Roughriders’ first-place showdown with the BC Lions, Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall announced the new stadium in Regina is a ‘go’. The Riders expect to move into their new home at Evraz Place, about 300 yards to the west of the current stadium, in 2017. Then the Riders went out and knocked off the defending Grey Cup champions 23-20 to become the only undefeated team in the CFL at 3-0. The highlight of the game was a
129-yard missed field goal return by Tristan Jackson, a Rider franchise record, which provided the winning points in the fourth quarter. To me leadership is saying something positive is going to happen, then going out and doing it. Earlier in the week Rider coach Corey Chamblin mentioned there hasn’t been a return touchdown for this team since 2007 and felt it was time that changed. Then it happened. Jackson smiled on our post-game show when he said “I wasn’t even touched!”
With the Voice of The Riders, Rod Pedersen Jackson also admitted that he was very upset earlier in the week when informed by Chamblin that he won’t be allowed to return kicks AND patrol the corner like he did in 2011. Chamblin’s reasoning is that he wants to keep “T-
Noise and wind turbines Our government is aware that some Canadians have concerns regarding the noise generated by wind turbines. We have taken action on this issue by Desnethé-MissinippicommissionChurchill River ing a study on the health effects of the low frequency noise generated by these turbines. This study has been designed with the aid of experts in the fields of noise, health assessment, clinical medicine and epidemiology. The research and methodology to be used in the study is available on the Health Canada website for the sake of public comment. By 2015, it is anticipated that there will be twenty times more energy produced by wind than there was in 2000, so it imperative that we have as many facts as possible at our fingertips in order to assure that Canadians are protected and informed. At present, there is insufficient data to conclude whether there is a relationship between wind turbines and human health. While it is not currently believed that wind turbine noise has a negative impact on human health, Canada will, once again, take the lead in protecting the health its nation’s residents by conducting an extensive study to determine whether this noise can be harmful. This data will contribute significantly to the global knowledgebase with regard to wind turbine noise. “This study is in response to questions
Rob Clark
from residents living near wind farms about possible effects of low frequency noise generated by wind turbines,” said the Honourable Leona Aglukkaq, Minister of Health. “As always, our Government is putting the health and safety of Canadians first and this study will do just that by painting a more complete picture of the potential health impacts of wind turbine noise.” Initially, the study will be conducted on a sample size 2,000 dwellings. The residents of these homes will be given medical examinations and be interviewed, giving a complete representation of their health. At the same time, sound measurements will be taken in and around their dwellings in order to paint a fuller picture of the situation. With the rapid expansion of wind turbine technology it is imperative that our nation lead the world, not only in the harvesting of wind energy but also in the protection of our residents. As always, I look forward to your letters, e-mails and calls. Write me at: Rob Clarke MP, House of Commons, 502 Justice Building, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0A6.

Jack” fresh, and use all 42 guys on the bench. Then, the very next game, Jackson enters the record book and wins the game. Leadership. Vision. Confidence. It reminds me of Bob Poley’s legendary story about their game-winning drive in the 1989 Grey Cup. In the huddle Kent Austin said “guys we’re gonna march it down the field, Ridge is gonna kick a field goal to win this thing and we’re gonna get out of here with the Grey Cup”. It happened exactly the way Austin said it would. So far the similarities between the young coaching careers of Chamblin and Austin are eerily similar. They’re so obvious I

ing his team videos of past Grey Cup wins and playoff losses. Last week he printed over-sized game tickets for each coach and player called it “the Big Ticket” against BC. The next day he trash talked the Lions by calling them a “mouthy bunch”. Then they silenced the cats on game day. Austin was 2-1 at this point while Chamblin is 3-0. How far does it go?
don’t even need to point them out, but as each week goes by we’re starting to see a difference in their methods. Austin, on his way to a Grey Cup win in his rookie season on the Rider sidelines and Coach of the Year honours in 2007, never really relied on gimmicks. His pregame speeches were legendary and held the team in the palm of his hand each time he spoke. Chamblin goes a little deeper. He’s been show-

Opinions Updated Chronicle to hit newsstands August 3 Readers will be picking up a new look Shellbrook Chronicle in two weeks time. The paper has undergone a number of updates over the years, including changes in paper sizes, but I believe that this one will be the most comprehensive and meaningful to date. The process actually began in April when newspaper designer Ed Henniger was one of the guest speakers at the Saskatchewan Weekly Newspapers Association’s (SWNA) annual conference. After taking in the presentation, Chronicle Publisher Clark Pepper engaged his services to see what could be done to modernize his paper. Through the past three months, Henniger has pitched his ideas for what the new Chronicle could look like via email and decisions were made on every aspect through staff consensus. This culminated with an inhouse training session with Henniger last week to help staff learn the new processes involved with building the paper and to help iron out any kinks in the new design. August 3 has been chosen as the launch date to ensure everything is in place before bringing the improved Chronicle to our readership. The updates will begin with the masthead, which will maintain its historic typeface while moving forward with a more modern look. The typefaces throughout the paper will be changed to more modern fonts to help increase readability and layout will be more modular to help avoid confusion. Photos will also receive a new treatment to make them stand out more among the columns of text. What won’t change is the Chronicle’s commitment to reporting the news of the area. Through my tenure at the Chronicle, we’ve tried to update with the times but an outside set of eyes is always helpful to point out what you may be missing. When that outside set of eyes belong to a newspaper professional like Henniger you end up covering all of the bases you had missed plus a few more you likely didn’t know existed. Reading the updated version of the paper may be strange to readers who have grown accustomed to our former style but I trust that this transition will be short lived and the old will be soon forgotten. There will likely be a few growing pains through the coming weeks as the new system is still a bit foreign but we’ll get used to it. The work involved will be well worth it when the new, streamlined product rolls off the presses. It is a great way to mark the paper’s 100 years and it is long overdue.
The Paul Martin Commentary The cost of building a new house in Regina is once again going up faster than just about anywhere in Canada. The Queen City stood out in the monthly report on new home building costs in the country, with costs going up a half percentage point in May. That was the second highest in the nation and quite a contrast to Saskatoon where the price remained unchanged. For months Regina had been among the leaders in new home cost increases but started to fall back into the pack. It had slowed to the point that the annual jump was just over four per cent. That is a fairly average number. But now it has rebounded to the top with a half point hike which would translate into a six per cent rise on an annualized basis. And that would be slightly higher than increases Toronto has been posting. It is also quite a contrast to places like Victoria where the cost of constructing a new house is actually in decline, dropping nearly a full percentage point in just one month. *** The next big thing that is rapidly rising on the economic watch-out-o-meter is the weather in the US. In particular the Midwest. Like us they`ve been toiling through some high temperatures. Unlike us, though, they are not getting rain and that is stressing crops, particularly the corn crop. The US is the world`s major corn supplier and just a few weeks ago everyone was thinking that the stars were aligned for a boomer of a crop. Prices started to fall as the market anticipated a rare increase in corn stocks. Now, a month later, sentiment is exactly the opposite. There are fears of below average volumes and quality
Paul Martin
which is putting upward pressure on prices. No doubt this will have a wide impact – on everything from fuel which contains corn-based ethanol to food. It will affect feed grain prices which will have an impact on livestock production and, more specifically for Saskatchewan, this may well influence potash with some analysts saying higher corn prices will encourage farmers to increase their fertilizer inputs in the coming months. *** Saskatchewan has lost one of the most prominent names in the provincial aviation business and a community leader. Jim Glass passed away suddenly yesterday at the age of 50. The Glass name is synonymous with the aircraft in the development of Saskatchewan’s far north. Jim was a second generation aviation company owner and operator, taking over from his father Floyd who was considered the pioneer of aviation in northern Saskatchewan as the first commercial pilot for the government airline that opened up the north. Floyd later formed Athabasca Airways in the 1950s and Jim took over the business. Subsequently the firm was merged with another major Saskatchewan aviation company to form TransWest which operates primarily in the northern half of the province with scheduled and charter passenger services as well as float planes and helicopters that serve outfitters and mining operations. A former provincial chamber of commerce president he was active in the local Chamber in Prince Albert, home to the family business. He also was a member of the Children’s hospital Foundation Board.

Viewpoint Rural job stats offer insight A recent conversation with Saskatchewan’s foremost statistician, Doug Elliott, reminded me of a couple truisms about rural Saskatchewan that I haven’t thought about for awhile: The first is that it’s a little too easy to assume Saskatchewan is one big homogeneous place. This simply isn’t case. The second is that while rural Saskatchewan is more diverse than some realize, what is happening there often becomes the political or economic canary-in-the-coalmine for the rest of the province. The topic of conversation was the recent job numbers that showed a remarkable 548,900 working people in Saskatchewan _ more than 50,000 more working taxpayers than a decade ago and more than 85,000 more than 20 years ago. Even more surprising was that there were almost 12,000 more than just a month ago _ a surprising statistic, given that oil prices, potash sales and wheat and canola futures haven’t exactly been painting a rosy picture for the Saskatchewan economy of late. When such numbers don’t make much sense, journalists like me will often go to Elliott _ a gem of guy for us in this busi-
ness because you can always rely on him for smart, insightful analysis free of government or opposition spin. Particularly refreshing this time was his usual candour when it came to June’s surprising labour force statistics. “Basically, I’m as confused as you are,” said Elliott, explaining that all the above indicators should be pointing towards an economic downturn. Elliott speculated that sometimes it takes a while for the job numbers to start reflecting what’s going on in the rest of the economy. And it was here where Elliott dug up a few additional numbers that provided some real insight into what may be really going on right. The breakdown of the employment show that not all areas of Saskatchewan are doing as great as the overall numbers suggest, Elliott explained. For example Regina and Saskatoon continue to boom with construction and growth. And what Statistics Canada
defines as the southeast of our province that includes Weyburn and Estevan around the Bakken Play and the potash mining regions to the north are also seeing a sizeable increase in jobs. But elsewhere in Saskatchewan, job creation is down, Elliott noted. There is a 3.5-percent job reduction in the southwest Swift CurrentMoose Jaw region. The traditional oil/ agricultural area of Kindersley, Rosetown and Bigger has seen a 4.4-per-cent job drop. And in the north where forestry is still suffering, the Prince Albert and north region is experiencing a 1.6-per-cent job drop. Elliott’s observation reminds us that not all of Saskatchewan _ in fact, not even all of rural Saskatchewan _ is experiencing the same boom right now. And it may be particularly telling that the older oil-drilling regions like Kindersley and Biggar and struggling right now.
When Saskatchewan was starting to recover almost a decade ago, it was actually the rural economy _ and specifically, the oilproducing regions of the southwest and west central _ that took off first. That rural Saskatchewan leads the way is nothing new. The same thing has happened politically when the once-solid NDP seats in northeast Saskatchewan around Yorkton start voting Saskatchewan Party in the last 1990s. The rest of the province eventually followed. Given that it was rural Saskatchewan that the rest of the province has followed out of bad times into economic boom times, the unsettling thing about Elliott’s observation is that we may be now witnessing certain parts of rural Saskatchewan leading us back into a less favourable economic trend. Or maybe the recent numbers are just a reminder that not all of Saskatchewan is the same. Either way, we should be paying attention to the detailed statistics and how they affect rural Saskatchewan. As a good statistician will tell you, those numbers are trying to tell us something.
Letters to the Editor
Who’s selling out Canada Post? Summer’s here; let’s talk garage sales. When you hold a garage sale, people swoop down for the steals and ignore the rest. Similarly, some pundits want the government to privatize or deregulate Canada Post, which would allow private interests to skim the cream off the Crown corporation, conveniently ignoring that those profitable parts pay for the unprofitable parts. Canada Post has the largest retail network in the country with enviable brand recognition. When CEO Deepak Chopra took the helm, he vowed to leverage this network, but has done little beyond promoting Epost. In the absence of any vision for the future of Canada Post, the baying for privatization and deregulation is getting louder. Piecemeal privatization already happens when traditional post offices close, replaced by counters in pharmacies and convenience stores. These counters and the poorly paid workers staffing them come and go at the whim of the private operator, making it difficult for the post office to be as accountable as it should be. As for deregulation, the government deregulated international letters in 2010 and we’ll probably see a push for further deregulation during the review of the Canadian Postal Services Charter in 2014. But where is this push coming from? Not from the public. In 2008, 69% opposed deregulation. Even last
summer, when Canada Post management locked out 50,000 workers, 65% opposed privatization at a time when public disenchantment with the post office should have been at an all-time high. If most Canadians don’t want to sell their post office, who does? Just a handful, but they’re obsessive about it. Michael Warren, a former Can ada Post CEO, frequently beats the privatization drum and recently used the corporation’s first loss in 17 years to do so again, failing to mention that the dip was due to one-time payments. There’s also Edward M. Iacobucci and Michael J. Trebilcock of the right-wing CD Howe Institute, who extol privatization as some kind of magical pixie dust. Vague success stories and vaguer claims of efficiency shouldn’t fool us. Very few national post offices have successfully been privatized. Britain and Japan are currently attempting it, but it’s proving bumpier than anticipated. The Netherlands sold its courier network TNT to UPS for a one-time cash injection; the remaining chaos has families sorting tottering piles of the public’s mail on kitchen dishracks. Privatization in the Netherlands is an unmitigated disaster as in Argentina, which re-nationalized its post office. Deregulation hasn’t worked well either, even at New Zealand Post, which owes its success to its popular postal bank. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers has been
advocating that Canada Post consider restoring an expanded public postal savings bank as a way to deal with its financial challenges. Our national postal system must take into account Canada’s huge landmass and the remoteness of many communities. Here’s where the privatization pushers collide with the reality that service to these communities would be, in the words of the CD Howe think-tankers, “relaxed.” Stop to consider what that really means. Currently, Canada Post delivers “from anywhere to anyone,” from busy urban centres to the rural mailbox on a twolane highway. Continued on page 6

Naber Ford wins customer satisfaction award Continued from page 1
Each Ford or Lincoln dealership overcoming the percentage threshold receives the award. Every dealership is able to track their progress through the Ford Canada dealer website where survey results are updated daily. This way, dealers are able to see what the perception is about them and perhaps make changes to their customer service, if necessary. Naber said that a small town, family owned dealer holds somewhat of an advantage over their big city counterparts, in respect to this particular award. At Naber, they like to be on a first name basis with all of their customers while providing personalized service. That isn’t always possible with a big city dealership with the volume of customers they see daily.

tomer scores because the smaller stores do a lot better because we do have that personalized service level. So sometimes the bigger stores struggle with it,” said Naber. Though they keep being rewarded for their efforts, Naber said that they always looking for ways to send their customers away satisfied while continuing to maintain their basic business philosophies. “You always ask your-
self, how can you do better? Over the years our philosophy hasn’t really changed on it we just try to treat people the way they want to be treated,” said Naber. “There’s always room for improvement. You look at the way you do things and you try and mold your people to think that way. It’s a bit of a mindset,” said Naber. In a news release from Ford Canada, Canadian vice president of Ford Customer Service Division Al McCormick congratulated the dealer on its high achievement. “For the first time in more than 50 years, Ford of Canada was the best-selling manufacturer in the industry in 2010 – we acknowledge that our dealers and the superior quality of service they deliver to our customers were instrumental in achieving this recognition. Canadian consumers know they can
find world-class quality, leading technology, safe, fuel efficient vehicles and exceptional customer service and satisfaction at their local Ford dealership,” said McCormick.
“The President’s Award is a testament of our gratitude to those dealers who are committed and excel in delivering the highest quality of service.”

Why you should consider oat insurance As we head into summer most boat owners can’t wait to hit the open waves but not having the right insurance policy in place could leave them in choppy waters. Unlike car owners, boaters aren’t currently required to have insurance before they get behind the wheel, but that doesn’t protect them from liability if something goes wrong. Canadians are amongst the most active boat owners in the world and yet it’s
believed that only roughly 25 to 35 per cent of those have proper marine insurance policies in place. If a boat owner causes an accident that injures one of their own passengers or someone on another boat, they could be forced to pay a significant amount in compensation under the Marine Insurance Act. Or, if they inadvertently cause a fire that damages other boats in a marina, they could be on the hook for the total cost which is
why most marinas now require boats docked on their premises to have insurance. Owners can be responsible for wreck removal if their boat gets stuck or sinks in a channel – an expensive procedure which can, in some cases, be in excess of the value of the boat. “Having proper insurance in place can give boat owners some peace of mind when they are out enjoying the water,” adds Scharien.

Agriculture Quality and production take hit in poor conditions As most Prairie producers are all too aware, cropping conditions have been less than ideal this year. Another wet spring, on the heels of two wet years, meant seeding lagged. Since then, across much of the Prairies, rain has continued to be an issue, lots of rain. Driving around the parkland region over the last several weeks I have seen too many crops, especially cereals, with yellowish leaves, which always reminds me of an explanation from my grandfather about such
crops looking that way because ‘they have wet feet’. It was a reference to the crops simply sitting in too much water. As we now pass the middle of July crop conditions are not likely to change greatly, although later seeded fields still have to hope an early frost doesn’t pop up. Again thinking of my grandfather he’d say the date to worry about would be Aug. 1 and 31, both nights of a full moon. He always said frost was most likely on such nights. On a world level the wet conditions here are in

contrast to droughts in the United States Midwest and the Black Sea Region, meaning crops in those two export regions are under pressure. The Canadian situation in terms of production is not a disaster, but it certainly is one where pro-
duction will not be such that it can offset problems elsewhere. The wet here, and drought in other locations have been enough to rally prices, and so farmers might have a fall where harvesting an average crop still produce strong
returns. That is good news for farmers here. There is however, another side to the situation. In times of drought and wet it is not just the production levels which take a hit. Quality too can be affected. Canadian farmers are well aware that quality makes a difference. Canadian wheat has a reputation for its quality based on many of the legislated safeguards which have long existed in this country, and those safeguards have allowed this country’s wheat to be accepted
into markets where quality is paramount. If weather conditions impact enough cereal export regions quality production is likely to be squeezed harder than overall production, and that could put a premium on top grades this fall. Certainly the situation has already pushed prices higher, a situation farmers here could take greater advantage of provided the weeks ahead see weather conditions moderate more towards normal, so farmers can take off the crop that is there in the highest possible condition.
Watching out for Wheat midge by Sherrilyn Phelps PAg., Regional Crops Specialist, Ministry of Agriculture Crops have really progressed over the past few weeks and range in development. With wheat, some fields are heading while some fields are still in the flag leaf stage. Wheat midge numbers are also progressing and producers should be watching closely. Based on the growing degree based model for predicting midge emergence, the emergence in Northern Saskatchewan is 10 to 50% this week. The warm temperatures will advance both crops and wheat midge emergence quickly so monitoring closely over the next couple weeks until crops are passed the susceptible stages will be important for protecting yield and quality. Once we are passed 80% emergence expect to see a decline in midge population and the risk of damage will have passed. Monitoring for midge should start when the boot starts to split and any part of the head is visible. Monitoring should be continue until mid-flowering, when anthers are visible on the heads. Once the anthers are visible the risk of damage is greatly reduced. Identifying when the midge populations are peaking will help with control decisions. Scouting should take place after 8:30 p.m.
when the female midge are most active. During the day adults remain within the crop canopy where conditions are humid. In the evening the females become more active and move to the top of the canopy where they lay their eggs. Most activity occurs when the temperature is above 15°C and wind speed is less than 10 km/h. When wind speeds are greater, egg-laying may still occur on shorter, tillering heads within the shelter of the crop canopy. Inspect the field in at least three or four locations. Midge densities and plant growth stages at the edge and centre of fields may be very different. Often, midge infestations are higher at field edges. In these situations, control around the field margins may provide adequate control and result in reduced cost. Midge populations can be estimated by counting the number of adults present. For yield, insecticide application should be considered when there is at least one adult midge for
every 4-5 wheat heads. At this level wheat yields can be reduced by 15% if control is not taken. For grade purposes the threshold is only one midge per 8 to 10 heads. With higher prices for wheat it has been discussed that the higher threshold of 1 midge per 8 to 10 heads could be used as the threshold to protect yield loss. For control, research has shown that products containing chlorpyrifos provide the best control of wheat midge. Applications in the evening when the midge are active provides the best control and maximum protection for the beneficial insects that tend to be more active during the day. Once the thresholds are reached you have 3 to 4 days to apply chemical. After this time the eggs will have hatched and the larvae will have moved into the glumes where they are protected from insecticide. In summary, the midge are progressing so watch your fields closely over the next couple weeks or until your field reaches mid flowering stages.

Small Business Loans limit raised to $20,000 A government loans program that helps small businesses has raised its lending ceiling from $15,000 to $20,000 effective immediately. The Small Business Loans Associations (SBLA) increase has been initiated to better meet the business needs of today’s entrepreneurs. “Supporting entrepreneurship is a major focus of our economic development agenda and this increase will open more opportunities for business people,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. “The SBLA program has been valuable in supporting our entrepreneurs when most funding options have been exhausted. Small business is big business in Saskatchewan, employing over 140,000 people and generating millions in revenue.” The SBLA program is designed to provide loans to small businesses that may have difficulty obtaining financing from banks and other traditional lending institutions. The funds may go toward starting or expanding a small business. The SBLA program is only available to Saskatchewan businesses. Funds are disbursed through the 183 SBLAs that have been set up by communities across the province. Currently there are 11,092 loans that have been issued to business people.

weather, but make sure you’re taking the appropriate precautions to keep from getting bitten by mosquitoes that might carry West Nile,” Provincial West Nile Virus Coordinator Phil Curry said. To reduce your risk of exposure to West Nile Virus, the following precautions are recommended: * using insect repellent containing DEET; * wearing protective clothing; * reducing time outdoors between dusk and dawn; * regularly cleaning and emptying containers that can collect water such as bird baths and eavestroughs; * clearing yards of old tires and other items that can collect water; * ensuring rain barrels are covered with mosquito screening or are tightly sealed around the downspout; * keeping screens on windows and doors in good repair; and * keeping bushes, shrubs and lawns clear of overgrowth and debris. Most people who become infected with West Nile Virus will experience either no symptoms or only mild illness such as fever, headaches and body aches. “If you’re bitten by a West Nile Virus-infected mosquito, there is still a small risk of serious neurological illness like inflammation of the brain and, in rare cases, death,” Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Moira McKinnon said. “People who develop severe symptoms such as unusually severe headaches, persistent high fever or confusion, need to seek medical attention immediately.” It’s not easy to predict how many cases of West Nile Virus the province will see in a given year. The risk of West Nile virus varies from year to year and is dependent on the temperature and the amount of virus that is cycling in birds. Typically, mid-July through August is considered a higher risk period for West Nile Virus, due to increased numbers of Culex tarsalis mosquitoes and warmer weather, which results in people spending more time outside. Last year, Saskatchewan’s wet
weather provided optimal conditions for mosquitoes, but the province did not report a single case of West Nile Virus in humans. Despite that, Health officials caution that people should remain vigilant when it comes to minimizing their exposure.
Updated Surveillance Results, Risk Maps and Weekly “West Nile and Culex Reports” are posted every Friday morning on the Ministry of Health’s website at www.health. gov.sk.ca/west-nile-virus. Additional information on protective measures and
the West Nile Virus (symptoms, when to seek help) are available on the Ministry of Health’s website and Healthline Online www. health.gov.sk.ca/healthline-online.
Chronic Wasting Disease receives provincial funding The Saskatchewan Government is continuing its efforts to manage chronic wasting disease (CWD) by providing the Canadian Cooperative Wildlife Health Centre (CCWHC) at the University of Saskatchewan with a research grant of up to $170,000. “This research gives us a better understanding of how the disease spreads and the effect it has on big game populations” Environment Minister Ken Cheveldayoff said. “The information assists in developing effective policies and future regulations to minimize the rate of transmission.” The CCWHC, in cooperation with the Ministry of Environment, provides a database and interactive website that hunters can check the test results of the samples they
submit. The ministry has delivered a CWD program to manage the disease in wild deer and elk since 1997. During that time 47,580 samples have been tested, of which 350 have been positive. Chronic wasting disease is a fatal brain disease that affects mule deer, white-tailed deer, elk and moose. There is no scientific evidence that CWD can be transmitted to humans through the consumption of meat from infected animals. However, the ministry advises that meat from any diseased wildlife not be consumed. For more information on CWD, visit the Ministry of Environment website at www.environment.gov.sk.ca.

Lanovaz family recognized for entrepreneurial spirit Owners of a small town grocery store received a big league honour as the Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers recognized the “real entrepreneurial spirit” of the Lanovaz family. Lanovaz Bigway Foods in Duck Lake, owned by Lawrence and Helen Lanovaz, was one of 50 stores or chains featured in the CFIG’s history book marking 50 years of the organization. “It was a pretty big shock. It was something that I never expected, that’s for sure,” said Lanovaz. He felt that their inclusion in the book was extra special because they are in there right next to large, province-wide operators. The CFIG has more than 5,000 members across the country ranging in size from stores in tiny villages to family owned chains located in cities. The family got involved in the grocery business in 1942 when his parents bought an existing business in Duck Lake. Lawrence left the community after graduating high school to work for a packaged-goods company in Saskatoon but returned in 1971 to help his father out. In 1978, he took over for his father and has been at the helm ever since. The 8,000-square-foot store has seen countless
changes over the years, from carrying clothing and hardware to selling ready to eat meals, like pizza and chicken, made in store. The key to their success has been knowing when to change with the times. “We’ve always had to keep upgrading and changing ourselves, doing whatever we had to do to survive,” said Lanovaz. In 2006, his two sons and daughter-in-law expanded the Lanovaz brand to Shellbrook. Jody and Crystal Lanovaz, and Jason Lanovaz partnered in Shellbrook Bigway further growing the family business. While Jody and Crissy operate the Shellbrook store, Jason helps Lawrence and Helen with the Duck Lake operation. Lanovaz’s involvement with the CFIG in the past may have put the family on their radar. He came out of Duck Lake to be elected to the board. He worked his way through the ranks and eventually became the chair in 1992-93. Though board involvement was a big commitment, he took away a lot from his experience. “Our president, John Scott, used to thank us for our time we gave to the organization but I thought, I’m getting a hell of an

education,” said Lanovaz. Along with outlining the family’s achievements in the grocery industry the book also makes mention of the family’s contributions to the community of Duck Lake. As a former mayor of the community Lawrence helped encourage renowned artist Glen Scrimshaw to move to town and open an art gallery while Helen recently spearheaded a fund rais-

People are advised to take precautions against heat exposure With weather predictions for sustained temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius and high humidex this week, health officials are advising people to take precautions against heat exposure. “Heat exposure can lead to heat related illnesses which, in certain circumstances, can become a medical emergency,” Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Moira McKinnon said. “Signs and symptoms to watch for include dizziness or fainting, headache, nausea, rapid breathing or a rapid heartbeat and/or thirst. People with these symptoms have to move out of the heat into shade and drink cool water. ”
Heat-related illnesses such as ‘heat exhaustion’ occur when a person cannot transfer enough heat away from their bodies through sweating and blood flow to the skin. People who work outdoors or exercise regularly in the heat are at greater risk of heat exposure. Infants and younger children, elderly, obese persons and persons with chronic diseases are also vulnerable since their bodies do not transfer heat as effectively. Heat stroke is a severe form of heat exhaustion. “Heat stroke is a lifethreatening medical condition. If you have stopped sweating, have a headache, dizziness, confusion, nau-

sea and red, hot, dry skin, you should seek immediate medical attention,” Dr. McKinnon said. “If a person is unconscious, that person needs to be moved to a cooler area and the body temperature reduced by using cool water or fanning, and 9-1-1 should be called.” Heat-related illnesses can be prevented by keeping the body cool and by avoiding dehydration in hot environments: * Drink plenty of water. * Avoid strenuous activity in hot, humid weather or during the hottest part of the day (between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.). * When outside, wear light-coloured, lightweight, loose-fitting clothing and a hat, preferably with a wide brim. * Take frequent breaks in the shade, visit a mall or other air conditioned facility to cool down. * Cool yourself off by taking a cool shower, bath or sponge bath. * Avoid consumption of coffee, colas, and alcohol as they tend to dehydrate the body.

Tips to improve energy Canadians lead hectic lives, but that doesn’t mean that nutrition has to suffer. Incorporating wholesome, nutritious snacks into the day will help to boost energy levels. According to Bonnie Cohen, a registered dietitian with Egg Farmers of Canada, one of the easiest and most economical ways to do this is with hard-cooked eggs. “I recommend making a dozen hard-cooked eggs on Sunday evening. It only takes a few minutes and you’ll have a convenient source of protein in the fridge and ready to go for the week ahead. With six grams of high quality protein and 14 key nutrients, they’re the perfect food to fuel busy lives,” Cohen says. Try Cohen’s quick, convenient tips for incorporating hard-cooked eggs into weekday meals: Need a quick breakfast? Slice a hard-cooked egg and enjoy it on whole grain toast with a glass of orange juice. For a speedy lunch, take a generous handful of pre-washed mixed greens and two hard-cooked eggs and you’ll have a quick and easy salad. One cup of baby carrots and a hard-cooked egg make a quick, filling afternoon snack. Slice a hard-cooked egg and mix it with some Dijon style mustard and low-fat mayonnaise for an easy pita-filling. Add in some lettuce and tomato to make lunch complete. Recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner are available online at eggs.ca.

Sinclair won’t be unknown for long Christine Sinclair might be the best relatively unknown athlete in Canada. The 30-year-old soccer star, the captain of the Canadian Olympic team that’s competing in the London Games starting July 27, is well known in countries where soccer is a way of life and, in fact, her name is part of the conversation when people talk about the best female players in the world. In Canada, though, you might get nothing more than blank stares if you asked ordinary Canadians to say what they knew about Sinclair. “You always know something can happen when Christine Sinclair is on the pitch,” John Herdman, head coach of Canada’s national women’s soccer team, told Stephen Brunt of Sportsnet Magazine. “Every team that wins a World Cup needs one of those players.” Canada has a realistic chance of winning a medal in women’s Olympic soccer. The team is ranked
sixth going into the competition, the second time it has qualified for the Olympics. In 2008, Canada finished eighth. Hopes are higher this year, mainly due to the on-pitch magnificence of Sinclair, the seven-time Canadian women’s soccer player who was born in Burnaby but made her soccer mark in the U.S. college ranks. A star at the University of Portland, Sinclair, now 29, set an all-time Division I career record with 39 goals. In 2005-06, she was woman athlete of the year in U.S. college athletics. In Canada, though, you could show her photo to people in downtown Toronto, Taber or Tisdale and only the most serious of soccer fans would have a clue who she is. With the Canadian team’s profile at the London Olympics, though, that could change. “I think what you will see this summer . . . is that her profile will continue to increase,” said Peter Montopoli, general secretary of
h Canadian di Soccer Asthe sociation, in a CBCsports. com story. “I do believe she is deserving of a Canadian athlete of the year award and it is coming,” he said. “It’s always difficult on a team sport that plays internationally and sometimes is not on TV to gain that exposure. “ An Olympic gold, silver or bronze medal will certainly bring that exposure and then all of Canada will know about the greatness of Christine Sinclair. • Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “Pittsburgh Penguins risked signing Sidney Crosby to a 12year, $104 million contract extension. The good news? If his serious concussion problems continue, maybe
he’ll forget he’s owed all that money.” • Bill Scheft, writer for the Late Show with David Letterman: “Katie Holmes is going to take some time for herself, but she needs to be dating A-Rod by Sept. 1 to be eligible for the playoffs.” • Cote again: “Dennis Rodman says he wants to coach a topless women’s basketball team at a New York City gentleman’s club. Players need not be adept at dribbling, but bouncing is a plus.” • Comedy writer Jim Barach: “Phil Mickelson and the former Dodger owning O’Malley family are teaming up to try to buy the San Diego Padres. In a related story, Tiger Woods and John Daly have put in a bid for the San Diego location of the Body Shop strip club.” • R.J. Currie of sports-
deke.com: “CFL referee Andre Proulx suffered a mild heart attack. Three possible causes: 1. Ricky Ray in an Argos uniform; 2. He got a raise; 3. Rod Black pronounced his name correctly.” • Currie again: “I just saw a replay of a homerun-saving grab by Angel sensation Mike Trout. Probably not the last time Trout is the catch of the day.” • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Greg Reid, Florida State’s star punt returner, has been charged with possession of marijuana. In other words, his game pants and his rap sheet are both sporting grass stains.” • Steve Simmons of Sunmedia: “The NHL wants the players to take an 11 per cent cut in revenues. So, I presume, ticket prices will be cut 11 per cent across the board. “ • Cote again, on the Tour de France: “Winner used to be first one to pass the finish line. Now it’s first one to pass a urine
15
test.” • Dan Le Batard of the Miami Herald, on LeBron James answering his critics: “If I’m in LeBron James’s shoes, I’m going to have a hard time not putting that championship ring on my middle finger.” • Another one from Perry: “The Vatican is reportedly $19 million in the red. David Stern immediately offered to make it an honorary NBA franchise.” • David Letterman: “O.J. Simpson celebrated his birthday with some friends in prison, and they had a nice little party for him. Out of habit, after he cut the cake he hid the knife.” • Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “At tryouts for the new Omaha Lingerie Football League team, candidates were judged on their passing, running and catching skills. Yes, and Miss Universe is chosen for her knowledge of algebra.” Care to comment? Email brucepenton2003@ yahoo.ca
ParticipACTION empowers Canadian youth through physical activity Being involved in sports and physical activity programs can increase strength and fitness, but can also have other great benefits like increasing self-esteem, helping kids do better in school and increasing an overall sense of well-being. However, as many Canadians know, there are often barriers that get in the way of staying active. Through the Sogo Active program funded by Coca-Cola Canada, ParticipACTION is working towards breaking down these barriers for teens. The organization is supporting local groups with the resources they need to run youth physical activity programs in their communities. “The grants from Coca-Cola provide opportunities for communities to have access to creating youth-centred programs,” says Megan Sutherland, the Sogo Active provincial/territorial coordinator for Ontario. “It’s exciting to see the activities that youth are creating and the leadership skills that they’re developing. With as little as $500, organizations can fund coaching and travel, or secure the equipment or space that’s required to get a program off the ground.” “I’ve run five programs over the last two years,” says youth worker, Jacob Blomme. “The grants are key for me

to introduce the youth to new instructors that can show them a totally different style of exercise.” A recent survey discovered that more than 80% of Canadians wish more people would get behind community-based programs and also wish that it was easier to get involved. In 2007 Coca-Cola Canada committed $5 million to ParticipACTION to help get youth active. It has also pledged an additional $5 million over the next five years to make its total donation $10 million over 10 years. The Coca-Cola funding is delivered through ParticipACTION to a network of provincial/territorial coordinators and more than 2,000 local community organizations. As of March 2012, over 30,000 youth in communities across Canada have been inspired to get active through this partnership. Organizers say the goal of the partnership is to inspire youth to get active and to have fun in ways that mean something to them. With the help of grants from CocaCola and ParticipACTION, more community organizations are able to access support and funding so that youth are exposed to a more diverse range of physical activity in their own neighbourhoods. This could be anything from breakdancing to snowshoeing.
Through this program, Coca-Cola Canada is showing Canadians how easy it can be to make a difference and how supporting our local community organizations can go a long way in helping to break down the barriers to active living. By making a commitment to active living or applying for a youth physical activity grant from Coca-Cola Canada and ParticipACTION, Canadians can help support local youth physical activity.

On June 28th, our government responded to the City of Regina’s funding proposal for their Regina Revitalization Initiative. While we declined their request for $230 million for various projects forming the RRI, we did announce that we are prepared to provide funding in the amount of $80 million toward the cost of a new stadium. That amount represents funding up to 30 per cent of the project cost. The province will not provide any operating funding and the financial model for the stadium will need to demonstrate self-sufficiency. This level of funding is consistent with what our government has provided
to $50 more each month. For more information on the PHCB call 1-855-5447242 – for more info on SIP call 1-800-667-7161. These changes reflect our government’s ongoing
commitment to improving the quality of life for Saskatchewan’s seniors.
Who’s selling out Canada Post? Continued from page 5 Were this obligation to be “relaxed,” it’s unclear exactly how rural residents would get mail. Their answer is a “targeted subsidy” for unprofitable routes, incentives for private companies such as UPS or FedEx to deliver. How would this cost less or be more “efficient” than the current universal postal service? Both FedEx and UPS already use Canada Post for “last-mile delivery” to remote customers. Needless duplication not only raises costs, it increases pollution. What’s efficient about that? Canada Post isn’t the financial disaster that those with privatization and deregulation agendas would have you believe. But mail volumes continue to decline. We need some real vision from Chopra, with the best interests of the people of Canada as a guiding principle, not a “Garage Sale” sign.

From the desk of the Rec Director By: Cassie Bendig The Shellbrook Before and After School Program may not run. During they surveys we saw tons of interest for the program, but at first I had problems finding volunteers to help with the committee and now we may not reach enough participants to run the program. The committee has officially created full time and part time rates to help with interest. Full time (5 or more visits per week) will cost $150/month/child;
part time (4 or less visits per week) will cost $110/ month/child. The program will run in the mornings from 7:15-8:30am and in the afternoons from 3:006:30pm on regular school days. The program will also run on PLC days from 7:15am to 6:30pm but will be closed all other holidays and weekends. If you are interested, please do not leave it to last minute.

The 2013 Colour of the Year is bright and positive In our world, colour is critical. Everyone, from car companies to fashion and make-up brands, work hard to develop colour palettes that reflect the pulse and mood of our culture. Benjamin Moore has chosen Lemon Sorbet as their 2013 Colour of the Year. Here are a few ways to use it: • Pastels, flattering in recent fashion trends are emerging on the home front in the mint, coral, pink and vanilla families. The Lemon Sorbet paint colour makes the perfect backdrop to these hues. • People are tired of the beiges, grays, and every hybrid in between, so this refreshing lemon shade is a perfect transition colour to begin an invigorating change. • In neutral spaces yellow acts like a yellow highlighter – focuses your eye and provides accent. • It can be bold and modern (in a graphic combo with black or deep inky blues and white). • It can be soft and natural paired with neutral shades of tan, sand and soft grey. • Yellow, in its many variations, is the colour of optimism and the colour of light and makes a great substitute for plain white. • On the wall, ceiling, trim or a piece of furniture, yellow makes a lively addition to any space.

It is very unfortunate to see the damage that is being done to properties not only owned by the town, but also the school and private properties in our community. This damage costs money to fix, and some of this money is tax payer money. So help us help you to direct expenses in the manner in which we intend instead of having to deal with vandalism. If you see anything please report it to the RCMP. The report can be anonymous, and we will appreciate it. Swimming lessons is half over; this year has been busy and great.

Work to resume on Diefenbaker Bridge Work on the final phase of repairs to the Diefenbaker Bridge is set to begin this week. “The province is committed to paying 100 per cent of the girder repair costs and will invest an estimated $3 million dollars to fix the Diefenbaker Bridge to ensure its safe use,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris said. “We understand the importance of the Diefenbaker Bridge and we’re pleased to work
in partnership with the City of Prince Albert to get the job done.” “This is one of the busiest times of the year for traffic travelling through Prince Albert and over the Diefenbaker Bridge,” Mayor Jim Scarrow said. “By no means is this timing ideal for lane closures on the Bridge, but the work needs to be done to ensure its long term safety. I am pleased to note that the schedule allows for the bridge to be fully open for
the August long weekend.” The work getting underway consists of measures to alleviate the stresses that caused the crack in one of the bridge’s four support girders. Work is targeted to be complete late fall. The work on the bridge is scheduled to occur as follows: Week of July 16 – 20: Walkway handrail/anchor repair to be completed. No lane closures are required. Commencing July 23
and continuing until end of day, July 29: Both northbound lanes to be closed for street repair and work on centre girders. Commencing Monday, July 30 until end of day, August 2: Southbound lanes to be closed for street repairs and work on centre girder. No lane closures from August 3 to August 6 for long weekend. Bridge work will recommence on August 7 on the Southbound lanes.
It is expected two lanes will be closed. It is expected that bridge work will be ongoing until late fall. Lane closures are expected through the months of August and September. Further updates will be provided when available. The crack caused the closure of the bridge’s southbound lanes last August. Repairs were made to the damaged section over the winter and access to full prima-
ry weights (63,500 kg) resumed in March. During this final phase of repairs, primary weight access will remain in place and the bridge will remain open to traffic with the exception of the lane closures outlined above. The City of Prince Albert and the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure thanks motorists for their patience and understanding during the repair work.
Combating the Colorado potato beetle By Erl Svendsen The current bane of my life is the small but numerous and voracious Colorado potato beetle (CPB, Leptinotarsa decemlineata). At first there were only a few on my potatoes, and these I picked off and gleefully ground with my heel in the pathway. But overnight with my back turned, they have turned into a vast and mighty hungry horde. Their preferred food is potato but will also happily munch on tomatoes and eggplant. Know your enemy: The body of the adult CBP is divided into three easily recognizable major parts: head, thorax and large abdomen. The head and thorax are bright orange with black markings. The hard coverings over the wings and abdomen, or elytra, are creamy yellow with 10 parallel and evenly spaced dark brown stripes running lengthwise. The adult beetle is about 1 cm or 3/8” long, the size of a large pill. Small orange or yellow eggs are laid in clusters of up to 30 on the underside of leaves, hatching within 4 – 15 days. The resulting hungry, soft-bodied, reddish-brown larvae have ridged backs with two rows of dark spots running along each side. The final
development stage before entering adult-hood occurs when the larvae drop and burrow into the ground several centimeters before turning into pupae. Depending on temperature, light conditions and host availability, the pupa may emerge as a hungry adult ready to reproduce after few weeks or stay dormant in the ground until spring. Lastly, CPBs are generally poor fliers, preferring to walk to its closest meal or catch a ride on a strong wind. Controlling the little critters takes patience and persistence, as well as taking advantage of their weaknesses and overcoming their strengths. 1. The first point of control is in the fall after harvest. Rototill the gar-
them with your heel with great satisfaction). Remember to look on the undersides of leaves for egg masses. 4. Potato plants can tolerate some damage. CPBs never attack the tubers, preferring instead to feast above ground on the leaves. As long as the tubers have already formed, losing a few leaves early on or even losing a lot later in the summer will have little impact on the number of potatoes formed or even final yield. Grow shortand mid-season varieties: ‘Norland’, ‘Caribe’, ‘AC Ptarmigan’, ‘Viking’, ‘Yukon Gold’. 5.
