LOCAL POLITICS
Young and fresh new eyes to help lead the community of Frontier By Kailey Guillemin kailey@advancesouthwest.com
At the age of 24, not many people would think they would be the mayor of a town. Some young adults are just finishing post-secondary education or maybe just starting off their career. But for Frontier resident Brady Berg, he is the mayor of a community at the age of 24. Growing up a single child with his father, his home and community quickly became important to him. After completing his Business Administrative Diploma in Medicine Hat, it was an easy choice to come back to Frontier. “I love being here. It’s a great community full of great people,” Berg said. “I do enjoy my life in Frontier and I think a lot of small town people can tell you that life is pretty good in the rural areas.” So why start politics at such a young age? The political system was something that sparked Berg’s attention and it just continued on from there. He likes to listen to people and help whenever and wherever he can. Berg is a driven man with success on his mind for whatever is thrown his way. “You’re going to upset people but you’re also going to make people happy,” Berg explained. “I think if you can sit back at the end of the day and know you made the best decision you possibly could and satisfied the most people you possibly could, it’s satisfying for me.” It was an exciting time for Berg when he knew he would be the one to represent his home community. Nerves then started to creep in knowing that even with the council in place, his face represents decisions made. The concern of disappointing his community was a big emotion Berg felt finding out he would be mayor. But with any negative
feeling, many more positives ones came up. “I felt pretty excited and joy to know I’ll be serving the people in the village of Frontier and knowing that…I’m going to work hard to make sure I can do the best job that I can,” Berg said.
“
I do enjoy my life in Frontier and I think a lot of small town people can tell you that life is pretty good in the rural areas.”
Berg hopes to quickly address a concern from a community member about new community members from different cultures. Berg would like to see his already welcoming community open its arms even more to its diverse culture. “She suggested to me maybe more of a cultural day, maybe more of a supper, having foods from different backgrounds, “Berg explained. “Some form of event to host both cultures and I kind of want to work on that a little bit.” Berg understands the challenge ahead of him of proving he has what it takes to do this job, no matter what his age. He hopes people with concerns also realize he works alongside four other members of the town committee to direct the future of Frontier. “I think as long as I prove myself to be visible and to be a strong leader and to make sure that I stand by my mays,” Berg said. “I think that people will respect me.” Berg doesn’t know quite yet where his future will take him or if it includes a life of politics. For now, he wants to focus on the task at hand and continue moving his home forward.

Violence prevention in our schools and neighbourhoods is a shared community responsibility. The Southwest Community Violence Threat Assessment and Support Protocol supports collaborative planning among Community Partners to reduce violence and reflects safe, caring, and restorative approaches. The protocol promotes supportive and preventive plans being put in place. It signifies a joint commitment of the School Divisions (Chinook, Holy Trinity), Great Plains College and their community partners the RCMP, Cypress Health, Ministry of Social Services and Ministry of Justice to take active steps to reduce violence in schools and communities. Cortney Reynolds, Southwest Regional Intersectoral Committee Contractor, explains the strength of this Protocol, “it is a commitment amongst multidisciplinary partners to make our schools and communities safe. It is a commitment to work together with a common process so that all the pieces of the puzzle are brought to the table when assessing and preventing potentially violent situations.” There is a shared obligation to take active steps to reduce violence in schools and post-secondary institutions. The partners agree to work together for the common goals of reducing violence, managing threats of violence, and promoting individual, school, and community safety. The partners will do so by proactively sharing information, advice, and support that reduce violence. The Southwest Regional Intersectoral Committee (RIC) hosted a signing ceremony for the 2nd edition of this Protocol on October 13, 2016.
The 1st edition of this Protocol was signed in May 2014, providing twoyears of feedback and an opportunity to see the areas that needed fine-tuning. During 2016, the Community Violence Threat Assessment and Support Protocol has been expanded to include the Great Plains College. The expanded protocol demonstrates commitment to including post-secondary partners in creating safe learning and work environments in the community.
There is a shared obligation to take active steps to reduce violence in schools and postsecondary institutions. David Keast, President and CEO of Great Plains College, describes the value of this Protocol, “We are honoured to be a part of this community-wide initiative and are eager to collaborate and partner with these organizations to reduce and manage violence at the college and in the communities we serve.” The Southwest Community Violence Threat Assessment and Support Protocol is based on the work of J. Kevin Cameron, Director of the Canadian Centre for Threat Assessment and Trauma Response. Cameron led the crisis response during the 1999 school shooting incident in Taber, Alberta. In concert with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Behavioural Sciences Unit, he developed Canada’s first comprehensive, multidisciplinary violence threat risk assessment training program for the prevention of serious violence. Cameron has been in Swift Current a number of times since 2011 training community partners in the Southwest in this model.

BOOK REVIEW
"Hamburger" by Daniel Perry Review by Leslie Vermeer editor@advancesouthwest.com
Hamburger, Daniel Perry’s new collection of short fiction published by Saskatoon’s Thistledown Press, is loaded with clever, provocative, thoughtful tales. Perry’s stories span moments from comedy to horror to pathos, and the collection explores familiar themes such as travel, discovery, loss, and false belief. But Perry’s fresh voice, narrative twists, and playful telling will keep readers turning pages. Even the briefest of Perry’s stories are peopled by ordinary folks at unusual, sometimes awkward moments. Some involve little epiphanies, such as “Rocky Steps,” which features a single mother with thwarted dreams. Some reveal universal human failings, such as “Gleaner,” which looks at smalltown life and how rumours work. Several stories involve dying parents and how their families are affected by grief and change. What stands out about these stories is their emotional core: the basic humanness of characters in stark circumstances.
Also impressive is Perry’s reach. Some of the stories take experimental forms, from the second-person address of the title story to the alternating narration of “Pleasure Craft,” in which waterskiing becomes an opportunity for remaking a relationship. There’s also the short speculative fiction “Aria di Gelato,” which explores the tiny important
moments of a life, and “Be Your Own Master,” a twisted noir-ish story in which a program of self-improvement goes horribly wrong. The self-consciously David Foster Wallace-inspired “Vaparetto,” in which a writer traces the extremes of personal attachment and intellectual detachment, is written with a wry voice and a dab hand. It’s tight, sly storytelling. Speaking of writers, quite a few of the stories in this book are about writing and the privilege and costs of the writing life. Perry has said that the arc of the volume reflects the development of a young writer, from aspiring to accomplished. The final story, “Three Deaths of James Arthur Doole,” uses various forms of storytelling, including a professional writer’s take, to explore how people create the stories they need from the materials they have. It’s admirably done. From witty micro-fictions to fully developed short stories, Perry’s narratives are engaging, appealing, and surprisingly emotional. Hamburger is a rich, tasty pick!
Southwest locals planning for new non-profit financial organization If you are diagnosed with a chronic illness or disease, the expenses can start to quickly add up. But not all expenses are monetary; some expenses can just be your time. Many organizations like Telemiracle through the Kinsmen Foundation and the Cancer Society offer ways to help support you throughout your unfortunate journey. What if it is not enough? A group of ladies in the southwest corner are hoping to add to the list of organizations that would offer its help of support. But now they need your support. Earlier this year, Lori Pritchard, Kathy Towle and Helen Fauchon approached Brenda Waldron about their foundation idea to help those with any medical issues, not specific to one. Now after months of planning and meetings with lawyers and accountants, the South West Chronic Disease Support Inc. (SWCDSI), is at the next major step: creating a board and signing up volunteers. “The mission statement is basically to raise funds to lend financial and moral support to our neighbours and friends that

The SWCDSI would allow volunteers to donate financially, which would be dispersed to each area in the Gull Lake to Cadillac and down to the US border. Volunteers could also donate their time with things like cleaning the houses, childcare or making sure there is food in the fridge.
“
all the fundraising that will be done in the future, all that money is going to stay in the community...”
“So we looked at all those different things and said okay, we can be a secondary support as well for…stuff like that,” Waldron said. “It spiraled, but it spiraled in a good direction.” Now on Tuesday October 18, SWCDSI will holding the meeting of their life. “Now we have to incorporate and we need to support that Tuesday night or it’s not going to happen,” Waldron said. “The last eight time consuming sometimes expensive with lawyers
and accountants, [they] don’t come free, all of that will become wasted and it won’t happen.” The meeting will look for volunteers to step into the roles of chair, vice chair, secretary treasurer and other positions like fundraise leaders within their community. Once the basic board is determined, then Waldron and the other three ladies can start to form more specific positions. The idea is the money raised in a specific location, will be distributed to those who need it in that area. That is where the leaders for the specific community fundraisers would come in. “We really want to encourage people from other surrounding communities to come because… all the fundraising that will be done in the future, all that money is going to stay in the community,” Waldron explained. “It’s not going to the huge organizations like MS Society and Cancer Society.” The meeting on Tuesday will take place at JB’s Gallery in Shaunavon at 7pm. For more information on the organization or to volunteer, you can contact Brenda Waldron (waldron. brenda80@gmail.com) or Kathy Towle (tktowle@yourlink.ca).

Don’t believe everything you see on TV By Megan Lacelle megan@advancesouthwest.com
This afternoon I was watching a TV show about lawyers investigating possible wrongful convictions. The show was filled with underhanded deals, snoopy heartless reporters and money hunger lawyers. Last month well-known Canadian defense lawyer Marie Henein spoke at the University of Saskatchewan’s College of Law. Henein, known for defending past CBC host Jian Ghomeshi, discussed the media’s portrayal of lawyers and the impact it was having on the profession. I would argue the same could be said for journalists. Coincidentally, I find myself intertwined in both professions. When I was in journalism school we were told to ask five people what they thought about reporters; did they trust them? Did they think the media was objective? Unanimously, friends or family, they answered no, they didn’t trust the media, they didn’t think they were objective. When I was accepted into law school I heard the gambit of slurs against lawyers. People talked about their distrust of lawyers and ‘why would I want to do that?’ Television shows would have you believe reporters don’t care about the truth and only care about ratings or that journalists are chasing ambulances – the same is felt towards lawyers. I read over and over again how the ‘media’ is biased and only shows the political side they support. The sentiment of ‘typical mainstream media’ becomes an easy wash if you don’t agree with something on the news, newspaper or radio. We have entire classes on proper legal ethics or how to check your bias when reporting on a story. The concept of fairness and justice are analysed and questioned within the classroom, often bringing the questions home with you in an effort to better yourself. According to a December 2015 report by Stats
Canada, Canadians are more likely to trust banking institutions than the legal system while only 40 per cent of Canadians expressed confidence in the media. The numbers are staggering. Professional journalists are not interested in manipulating you, they’re more interested in telling your story. Lawyers aren’t interested in screwing you over, they’re more interested in being your best advocate. It’s always important to critically think about the views and information presented to you in any circumstance. However, I think turning on your television and thinking you know about the law because you watched 18 episodes of Law & Order is absurd, the same can be said with journalism. Most professionals don’t obtain their experience, education or opinions from television shows. The legal profession is meant to advocate for individuals. The journalistic profession is meant to keep the government in check through objective reporting, keeping the public informed about the decisions made around them. Neither profession is meant to harm the public. It’s not all bad though, a university of British Columbia study found only one in four people believed information provided on social media was accurate. So that’s something, we’re more trustworthy than Facebook. Note the sarcasm. Lawyers and journalists are just people trying to do their best at the job they were given; similar to any other profession. The difference, everyone can analyze a journalist’s work meanwhile lawyers are weighing heavy consequences with each case. Just as with any profession, there are people who are good at their jobs and those who are bad at it. You get to assess what that is. Just please, don’t believe everything you see on television.
OPINION
Five pipelines shut down by vandals who call themselves activists By Brian Zinchuk brian.zinchuk@sasktel.net
Around dawn on Oct 11, across the northern United States, five pipelines were struck at various remote sites roughly simultaneously. Near-simultaneous strikes has been a hallmark of Al Qaeda, be it the embassy bombings in Africa, 9/11, or bombings in London and Madrid. Except in this case, instead of bombs, the weapons were bolt cutters. In several cases, flowers, not shrapnel, were left behind. Hitting in remote areas, the perpetrators targeted pipeline block valves. The intention, as their hashtags say, were to #ShutItDown. Wearing white plastic hardhats, each with a large red ‘X’ across the forehead, these protesters hit five of the key international pipelines that ship Canadian “tar sands oil,” as the activists called it, to American markets. The lines included Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain in Washington, Spectra Energy’s Express line in Montana, TransCanada’s Keystone in North Dakota and Enbridge’s Lines 4 and 67 in Minnesota. The acts of vandalizing these block valves were broadcast live via Facebook. “BREAKING: To avert climate catastrophe, activists are shutting down pipelines bringing Tar Sands Oil into the US, in solidarity with Standing Rock,” their posts said. The reference to Standing Rock is
the North Dakota band protesting the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline south of Bismarck, N.D. While individuals or pairs went onto the site, others videoed the acts and the subsequent arrests. Police showed up, and cordially arrested the trespassers. These people should have been thrown to the ground, eaten dirt with a knee on the back of their necks when they were arrested. Despite their self-righteousness, these truly militant and criminal acts should be prosecuted to the maximum extent of the law. Interfering with infrastructure vital to national security is not something the American government is liable to take likely. Shutting down pipelines is not a joke. It’s not chaining yourself to a bulldozer. Thankfully, SCADA system would have monitored any pressure variation and shut in the system before anything serious, like a spill, could happen. Not surprisingly, these protests were videoed and broadcast with cellphones made of petrochemicals. Their high visibility vests were made of petrochemicals. And, in each of the videos I watched, they drove there. “Shutting down” might be too strong of a term. It didn’t looking like they did much cranking on those valves. Nonetheless, at least two of the pipeline companies shut down their lines as a precaution. I’m familiar with most of the major pipeline rights-of-way in Saskatchewan. I usually notice them
every time I drive past one, to the point where my kids are probably sick of it. Often I’ve wondered about the security of sites such as block valves like the ones these protestors tampered with. You can bet after this little fiasco, there will be millions spent on video cameras for every site that doesn’t have them already. The real worry is actual terrorism. No amount of security cameras, chains or fences in the world is going to speed up response time to sites in the bald prairie. Thankfully, since pipelines are well buried, any damage would be limited. These vandals, whose group picture on their Facebook page shows them to be white men and women in their 50s and 60s, stated they did this, “in support of the call for International Days of Prayer and Action for Standing Rock. Activists employed manual safety valves, calling on President Obama to use emergency powers to keep the pipelines closed and mobilize for the extraordinary shift away from fossil fuels now required to avert catastrophe.” I surely hope they had time to feed their horses on the way to and from these attacks. Wait, didn’t one talk about where his Jeep was parked? Right – it’s catastrophic, until the Jeep needs to be filled up at Phillips 66. Then it’s just convenient.

A LITTLE BIT WESTERN
Here We Go It’s a Zoo out There By Cleo Morvik editor@advancesouthwest.com
Hello, Southwest! My name is Cleo and I’m your new travel writer! I grew up in the rich Hollywood hills of Los Angeles, amongst the tall iron gates of celebrity mansions where I spent my days shopping, interning at fashion magazines, eating sushi, and sipping cold cappuccinos. Now I’m off to travel the globe, staying in the most expensive, luxury hotels the finest cities of the world have to offer. I’m simply thrilled to share my unattainable travel adventures with you… JUST KIDDING. Let’s start over. My name is Cleo and I grew up on a mixed farm just outside of Eastend, Saskatchewan, amongst red and black Angus cattle. I spent my days attending the K-12 school in Eastend before going on to the University of Regina for my education degree, interning at Pontiex School, covering a leave at Eastend School teaching alongside my mother (sound familiar?), eating homegrown beef and drinking hard tap water. Now I actually am off to travel the globe, but on a budget. And I truly am thrilled to share with you this adventure that I’ve been thinking about since I was a little girl. I love my home, my family, and my small-town, Southwest Sask roots, but the wanderlust is taking over. Big time. So here’s the plan. On Monday, October 15th my boyfriend, Kerry, and I will board a plane in Calgary and begin the first leg of my seven-month adventure. Our plane first touches down in Perth, Australia. There we’ll spend a couple days exploring, acclimatizing, and adapting to the time change with the help of some Aussie friends of ours, Rusty and Val Lee. We often refer to the Lee’s as our Australian family. When my Dad was around my age, which is 22, he embarked on an agriculture exchange in Western Australia. Rusty and Val were assigned as his host family. Rusty and
his family left a lasting impression on my Dad. I get my middle name from them: Lee. They’ve kept in touch after all these years, so now it’s my turn to head down under and work on the farm. This time around Kerry and I will be working for Rusty’s good friends and neighbours, the Newmans, on their grain farm for the Australian harvest season. We’ll either be piloting the header (Aussie slang for the combine) or running the chaser bin (the grain cart). We’re both hoping for the combine. Shortly after a very warm Christmas, we’ll set out for New Zealand where we’ll meet up with our favourite Kiwi friend, Joel. We’ll spend two weeks getting to know the North Island with him, and then Kerry and I will part ways. On January 11th, I will jump on a plane headed for Bangkok, Thailand and join in on a Free and Easy Traveler 25-day guided tour of Laos, Thailand, and Cambodia, while Kerry will head for the hills of home! After the 25 days are up, I’ll catch another plane to Athens, Greece, and the Euro section of my trip shall commence. I’ll spend the following four months wandering and getting lost, until I find my way to Dublin, Ireland, where my final flight home awaits on May 15th, 2017. As for all the in between, I’ll fill you in as I figure it out! Now to finish off, here are some more true things about me: I’m going to miss my dog, Rawlee, probably more than any human being for the next seven months; I am taking with me only two bags, one large carry-on size backpacker’s pack, and one regular size backpack; I currently have a cold and am not looking forward to a full day of airplane nose-blowing; I am just now realizing that this is real life and I am actively making my dreams come true. And that’s pretty neat.
We’d love to hear from you.
By Tara Mulhern Davidson lonesomedoveranch@sasktel.net
Most summers we try to take a short trip somewhere as a family, or at the very least have an epic staycation where we set up the tent and camp out on the prairie. This year, for whatever reason, one week melted into another and before we knew it, school started and the five of us hadn’t travelled anywhere together. Over Thanksgiving, we knew it was now or never, and we embarked on our family summer vacation. We already knew it was a little peculiar to take a “summer” holiday in October, but the weirdness was only compounded when it started to snow for almost the entire duration of our trip. While the snow left me checking the road reports and dutifully marking several outdoor activities off my carefully planned itinerary, the kids were completely unfazed as they twirled around, trying to catch the fat flakes of snow on their tongues. (Hey, this wasn’t my first family vacation rodeo, I was prepared with winter coats and toques). One of the highlights of our trip was a visit to a zoo. The timing really couldn’t have been better, as the heavy snow not only made the zoo animals perky and engaging, it kept scores of potential visitors away. As a rule, farmers of all ages don’t like crowds, so a nearly empty zoo that was ours to explore was perfect! We walked and discovered and walked and ate snacks, and when that was done, we walked some more. We watched the penguins munch on fish and revel in the snow and we saw the majestic tigers and snow leopards gracefully meander through their spaces. The cougars and the bears were a hit, and I couldn’t
help but laugh as we viewed the flamingoes chilling out (literally) in the fresh snow alongside the mallard ducks that came and went. My husband and I would point out interesting things here and there to the kids but they made observations of their own. As farm kids, they have a pretty good idea of how the Animal Kingdom works from a biological standpoint, and they had lots of good questions. They noted the giraffes eating hay from their elevated hay bags and the tiny Asian pigs obtain water from a spigot. The kids noticed several enclosures that featured stock water bowls, excitedly saying “they have the same waterbowls as we do!” We walked near an elaborate set of corrals and chutes set up for handling larger animals. I suspect the zoo was trying to conceal this infrastructure, or at the very least not draw attention to it, but there our kids were, peering through the bushes, commenting on the height and function of the animal handling system. The omnipresent electric fencing throughout the zoo also caught their attention. Electric fence wires, insulators, and the fencers themselves were discussed at length and one pointed out that a particular fencer wasn’t holding a charge. I guess he’s spent a few days checking fencers back at our ranch, this wasn’t his first rodeo, either. The entire trip was good. We stayed in hotels, enjoyed water sliding, ate lots of good food, visited with friends and family, and there was plenty of hot coffee consumed by mom and dad. And, although we already knew this, we were reminded that you can take the kids off the farm, but you can’t take the farm out of the kids.

5th Annual Expo Promotes Staff and Patient Safety Contributed editor@advancesouthwest.com
The Cypress Health Region will once again be offering its popular Safety Expo with the 5th annual event scheduled to take place during Canadian Patient Safety Week on Tuesday, October 25th and Wednesday, October 26th. In its first four years the Expo has attracted crowds of over 500 people while drawing attention to the Region’s highest value: Safety. This year's theme is ‘Just for the Health of it’ and will include something for everyone. Tuesday will feature an educational focus on safety and Wednesday’s emphasis will be a health and safety fair featuring over 30 vendors. Both days will be hosted at the Cypress Regional Hospital in Swift Current. “We have based the focus for the 5th Annual Safety Expo on the feedback received from participants and vendors in previous years. Providing both inter-
active and informative displays allows us to attract our staff and the public while also appealing to businesses and schools.� commented Jill Gates, Accreditation and Patient Safety Coordinator for Cypress Health. Demonstrations and displays will include: Ambulance & STARS simulation bus tours, demonstrations in the Lee Irwin Simulation Lab, a germ tent, and more. Fundraising lunches and suppers are also planned with proceeds being donated to the Dr. Noble Irwin Foundation and STARS. Many of the Expo’s presentations will be broadcast to communities throughout the Region via Telehealth videoconferencing technology. Registration details and a full list of presentations is posted on the Region’s website at www.cypresshealth.ca. Applications for school/daycare tours can also be found on the website or can be accessed by calling Jill at 306-778-5431.

Transportation Status Report By Kevin Jones Manager of Transportation and Facilities
An overview was provided of highlights in the areas of personnel, budget, route development and maintenance, fleet maintenance, new buses, bus operations and repairs, policies and communications, and future plans. The Transportation department aims to provide good customer service, while balancing parental expectations with efficiency and consistency in the application of the Transportation policy. 15 new buses were purchased in 2015-16 and Chinook is continuing to meet the benchmark of maintaining a capital budget to keep the bus fleet at 10 years or We are currently at an average of 7.39 years for the entire fleet. In July 2016, an RFP for busing solutions was accepted from Legacy Bus. Some of the initiatives that are expected from this process will be an adjustment to “right-size� the Chinook bus fleet. The expected outcome will result in a reduction of operating and maintenance costs and a newer overall fleet. The Board approved minor renovations to four bus garages, including various projects for the bus garages in Shaunavon, Maple Creek, Swift Current (parking plug upgrade) and Fox Valley. The Board also approved the development of a bus fueling area at the south side of the Waldeck school yard site. This demonstrates a commitment by the Board to support a reliable, well-maintained bus fleet for students in the Chinook School Division. In September 2015, a committee was established to help support a smooth startup of the Swift Current schools’ transportation services at the beginning and into the school year. The committee members are school administrators, Division senior administration, Rilling Bus representatives, school office managers and members of the Transportation Department. The committee has created an evergreen document that the stake-
holders follow and the process has proven to be very successful. The Transportation Department also implemented the use of a “Transportation Request Form� to be completed by parents in order to receive services, as well as to ensure effective communication and the safety of the students. This form, as well as updates and other information, can be accessed in the “Bus Information� banner on the Chinook website. For the current year (2016-2017), Chinook School Division buses have a total of 161 routes, including rural and urban, Pre-kindergarten to grade 12. A total of 3,090 students are being transported on these routes, including 1,689 rural and 1,401 urban students. Rural routes travel approximately 25,510 total kilometres per day, with an average route length of 218 kilometres. Six new fifteen passenger vans were purchased for Hodgeville, Vanguard, Val Marie, Cabri, Eastend and Ponteix schools. The Transportation Department, in conjunction with Rilling bus, is currently providing training for staff members of these six schools. Chinook has partnered with the Saskatchewan Safety Council to have three individuals trained to provide comprehensive 15 passenger van training to all Chinook schools with vans, including updated training for the nine schools that had vans previously. There are continuing challenges in the area of driver recruitment, as we have a shortage of spare and full time route drivers. We have done extensive advertising for the positions and will continue to make this a priority, in partnership with Rilling Bus Ltd. The Transportation Department looks forward to finding additional solutions resulting in improved services for the students in Chinook School Division. We greatly appreciate the support of the Board and senior administration as well as the communication from the schools and bus drivers, as it is all very crucial to our services.
For the record Mr. Premier...

Fire claims The Clarendo Hotel By Kailey Guillemin Photos by Kate Winquist
I
t was a sad Thanksgiving weekend for Gull Lake this year as 8am on Sunday emergency responders were called to a blaze at the historical Clarendon Hotel. It was an unfortunate time for the community to come together and remember all the memories citizens had within the building that was built back in 1907. Gull Lake’s Mayor Blake Campbell was on the scene that morning and experienced his own loss for the building as well. “When I walk to get the mail in the morning, I walk down Fifth Street and when you turn to go up Conrad by The Advance, you always couldn’t help but to notice the hotel that would stand on top of the hill,” Campbell explained. ‘It seems like a very empty space now and I think that’s one of the things I miss.” The hotel served the community for over a hundred years as a liquor bar, showroom, grocery store and many other services before finishing as wellknown hotel. Campbell could see the loss being expressed over social media as he looked the days following the fire. “You see friends that are posting photos of good times that they had in the hotel over the years…and how much they’re going to miss that building that was very much a part of our town.” Advance Southwest is located just north of where the Clarendon Hotel used to stand. Kate Winquist owner of the paper and a local photographer would admire the old structure from her window at work. “To put it into perspective, now there is a whole block that is empty in Gull Lake,” Winquist explained about the devastation the fire brought. “There is absolutely nothing in the downtown block.” Now Winquist worries not only about the downtown core of her community, but what remains available for Gull Lake business wise. With the loss of not only a massive historical structure, the loss of a place where everyone in the town could gather can take its toll. “For a town of a thousand people to lose your drinking establishment is quite a blow,” Winquist said. “It’s really
unfortunate, hopefully the town can bounce back.” Campbell explained the sad feeling throughout the day as he was around the fire. Many members of the community went to see what was going on which helps show just how important this building really was to Gull Lake. “I would say it was a very quiet scene,” Campbell said. “You could see a lot of people standing there had some connection to that building and you could just kind of sense the general sense of sadness with a lot of the people that were there, and the sense of loss.” Gull Lake experienced a disastrous fire to this extent when the local movie theatre burnt down in 1976. Only being a child during the event, Campbell remembers not only the devastation that hit the community, but the resilience to move forward together. “Moving forward in the future, we have to try and remain somewhat optimistic,” Campbell said. “When the theatre burnt down…I imagine people never thought we would ever have another theatre again.” After the community recovers from the tragic events, Winquist hopes to see Gull Lake’s downtown start to be revitalized and noticed. With only a handful of businesses in the area left, she worries the lack of attention to the downtown could grow. “What I would like to see is a bigger focus on the downtown to try and have more people come this way instead of everything focused on the sports facilities during events like Winterfest,” Winquist explained. “Make our businesses important to try and keep them.” Campbell also hopes and waits for the recovery of the community and the opportunity to move forward when the time is right. A big thank from the Town Council of Gull Lake was published to all the responders to the fire, everyone who helped provide whatever they could and to the community for following water reduction advisories. Fire crews from surrounding communities also volunteered their time to help battle the blaze.

History of The Clarendon Hotel T
he Clarendon Hotel was built in 1906-1907 by Bert Jacobs.Julius Hansen worked on the building as a bricklayer, contractor was Bob Irwin. Sharpe operated this business from 1907 to about 1930. A liquor “bar” was located on the ground floor along the east side facing Conrad Avenue. This was phased out in 1925 when prohibition was instigated. A copy of the Advance 1916 displays an advertisement indicating that Sharpe operated a grocery store in this “bar” area. About 1926-29 Smith and Anderson (Ford dealers) used this part of the hotel as a parts department and show room. Later this same area was remodelled
and rented as suites and offices to such people as Dr. John Matheson, lawyers F.G. Wheat and Hagenmeister and Wilson. Subsequent owners of the hotel have been Mrs. George Imrie (Robinson), Al Booker, Angus McLeod, Ross Chalifour, Andy Floer, Fred Simpson, Jamie Graham and Roger Bouvier. A beer parlour was installed in 1936 by Imries in part of the “bar” area. Extensive remodelling has taken place over a period of years, including a restaurant and liquor lounge. An addition was built on the north side in the early years. Taken from Gull Lake Memories: A History of the Town of Gull Lake (1989)

HOME & GARDEN
Houseplants 101 By Erl Svendsen
The first rule of houseplant care is that houseplants should ENHANCE your home. Take a critical look at your houseplants. Do they have yellowing leaves? Long stems with no leaves? Stakes because the weak stems are unable to hold themselves up? A flowering plant (e.g. poinsettia) that hasn’t flowered in years? If ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then consider starting fresh. Plants, like all living things, need six things to thrive: light, hospitable temperatures, shelter, water, food and freedom from duress (e.g. pests and disease). Of course no two types of plants need exactly the same growing conditions, but there are broad acceptable ranges of these six factors that allow you to lump plants with similar needs together. Most houseplants that do well in our homes are from the tropics, usually understory or shade-loving plants. During the summer, place your houseplants away from direct sun; from October to March, most houseplants welcome the weaker winter sun, but remember to move them back away from direct summer sun. Being of tropical origin means that houseplants are not adapted to temperatures much lower than 55°F for any length of time and no time at all below 40°F: keep them away drafty doors and windows in winter. Also, do not trap plants behind curtains. Besides the protective environment of your home, shelter includes the root zone contained within the pot. Plant roots need a suitable potting media. When restricted to a small volume, that potting media needs to be light, porous, well draining but with some water holding capacity. Most commercial potting media is soil-less, usually some combination of peat, perlite and vermiculite. Rarely is there any soil included as soil is too heavy and may contain pests and disease. Tap water is usually suitable but do not use softened water as this contains toxic (to plants) salt levels. Apply as required, when the top 0.5 – 1 in. of the media feels dry to the touch. Never allow your pots to sit in water, as this will cause the potting media to remain soggy leading to root death. While plants manufacture their own energy compounds from light and air, they do need nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium in relative-
ly large amounts. Required in much smaller amounts, but still essential, are chemicals such as copper, magnesium, iron, manganese and the like, known collectively as micronutrient. Since plants cannot go out in search of food, it means that you’ll have to supply them: (1) use a complete, dissolvable granular fertilizer (e.g. 20-20-20+micronutrients); apply according to package instructions one to four times a month, depending on the plant and time of year, or (2) use a controlled release pelleted fertilizer applied a few times per year, according to package instructions. Just as houseplants are perfectly adapted to your home, so are a number of insect pests. Inspect regularly for signs of infestation. Common insects that you may encounter include aphids (bright green or black, 1 – 2 mm long, soft bodies; usually found on the most succulent and youngest growth); spider mites (microscopic, usually on the undersides of leaves; symptoms include yellowing leaves, fine webbing, towards the ends of branches); mealybugs (small, oblong, cottony-white puffs, 3 – 5 mm; on young growth or in the root system); scales (raised, round brown bumps on stems and leaves of recent growth); fungus gnats (small [1 – 2 mm] flies, hovering at the soil level); and white flies (small (2 – 4 mm), powdery white flies, usually on the undersides of young leaves). We end where we started: houseplants should enhance your home. Groom your plants to keep them looking their best and inspect regularly for problems. Remove dying, yellowing leaves and spent flowers. Plants that can become leggy like coleus should be trimmed back regularly. Invest in a houseplant guide that describes your plants, ideal growing conditions and pests that are likely to attack.

Gull Lake Cemetery
COLUMBARIUM PROJECT
ntal nt Monume e rr u C t if w of S pbell. Bud Cates r Blake Cam o y a M e k a and Gull L
The Cemetery Committee started exploring the possibility of adding a columbarium to the cemetery in 2014. The Committee explored a variety of options and made a recommendation to Town Council to look at the possibility of forming a partnership with Swift Current Monumental. Town Council accepted the recommendation and struck a partnership with Swift Current Monumental. As part of the agreement Town Council agreed to pay for the cement pad and Swift Current Monumental supplied the Columbarium. The Cemetery Committee, and Town Council are pleased to see the arrival of the Columbarium at the cemetery. The Cremation Columbarium looks very nice and has 48 doors each capable of holding 2 urns. Columbariums are becoming more popular in cemeteries offering an alternative resting place for the cremated remains of loved ones.
Niches
A niche is 11” x 11” x 14”. The Town of Gull Lake will allow two (2) urns per niche. It is recommended to purchase both urns at the same time to ensure a proper fit. The urn must be of a material suitable for internment (no cardboard). Leaving the cremains in the urn sent by the crematorium is allowed as long as it meets the above requirements. Please be aware that these containers are considered temporary and the Town of Gull Lake will not be responsible for damage to or loss of any cremains that are left in temporary containers.

PROVINCIAL
October 16-22, 2016 Proclaimed as Saskatchewan Library Week Contributed editor@advancesouthwest.com
Join the Saskatchewan Library Association (SLA) as we proudly celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Saskatchewan Library Week (SLW) with the theme Explore and Discover Saskatchewan Libraries. SLW is one of SLA's longest running programs. The association has sponsored it since 1976 and the Right Honourable John Diefenbaker was SLW's first patron. This province-wide program, which occurs during the third week in October, unites Saskatchewan people and libraries in an annual event intended to promote library services and create an awareness of the access to information for cultural, economic, educational, and recreational development that is available to everyone in Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan Library Week encourages literacy, brings communities together and brings cultural awareness to the forefront in Saskatchewan. "With a generation of people now having grown up with the Internet, the strength of libraries continues to be helping instill literacy skills and assisting information seekers for people of all ages. The return on investment is high for modest budgets and libraries in Saskatchewan offer a wealth of resources and services for newcomers, seniors, children, adults, and minorities. Libraries in our province are needed now more than ever as they continue to build partnerships
with organizations that help play an important role in the social, economic, and cultural development of their communities" said SLA President Michael Shires. Libraries throughout Saskatchewan are planning special projects for this annual reminder of the value and importance of our libraries. A list of these projects can be found at http://saskla.ca/programs/slw. Many of these projects are funded with the assistance of grants provided by SLA to all sector libraries.
“
... the strength of libraries continues to be helping instill literacy skills and assisting information seekers for people of all ages.
This year also marks the third anniversary of SLW's Book Spine Poetry Contest, where closet poets everywhere can create an original poem using the spines of books and enter to win prizes. Details about the Book Spine Poetry Contest can be found at www.bookspinepoetrycontest.ca. For more information about Saskatchewan Library Week, please contact Michael Shires by phone at (306) 585-5418 or by email at michael. shires@uregina.ca

HEALTH & WELLNESS
An Open Letter to the Provincial and Territorial Ministers of Health on the New Health Accord Dear Ministers of Health, I am writing to you on behalf of the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA), the national professional voice representing over 139,000 registered nurses and nurse practitioners in Canada, in support of your upcoming meetings in Toronto on October 17 and with federal Health Minister Jane Philpott on October 18. We were pleased to see the January 21, 2016, joint communiqué (issued at your last meeting in Vancouver) announcing that discussions around the new health accord, which will include bilateral agreements, will focus on the following priorities: 1. enhancing the affordability, accessibility and appropriate use of prescription drugs 2. improving care in the community, home care and mental health care, to better meet the needs of patients closer to home and outside of institutional settings 3. fostering innovation in health-care services by expanding promising approaches that improve the quality of care and value-for-money
The new health accord provides a tremendous opportunity to catalyze much-needed changes to health care in Canada. As you prepare for your important meetings, we encourage you to support our proposal to include a robust accountability framework as a key measure in the new health accord. Such a framework, supported by the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance in its final report on the 2016 federal pre-budget consultation, will benefit patients and taxpayers by showing causal relationships between inputs, activities and population health outcomes. An accountability framework will report on health and social outcome measures derived from existing national data sources. Furthermore, provincial and territorial governments would report annually to the federal minister of health. Plain language reports could be made available to the public via Health Canada’s website and social media platforms. This approach, used in the past under the 2011-2014 affordable housing framework (which also featured bilateral agreements)
is equally applicable to the proposed $3 billion in federal funding for home care. As stated in the affordable housing framework, signatories can be held “accountable to the public for the use of public funds through an open and transparent process which identifies expected outcomes, measures performance, reports on results to the public and provides for follow-up.” It is well known that home is the preferred setting to recover from illness, age safely and die with dignity. Each year, the demand for home care increases, especially among Canadians over the age of 65. Despite this, access to high-quality, publicly funded home care is inconsistent across Canada. We are calling for federal, provincial and territorial ministers to employ a strategy to ensure funds are transparently invested in a cost-effective manner. Our goal is not only to improve access to home care, but also reduce unnecessary use of expensive acute care resources. In addition to including an accountability framework in any bilateral agreements signed as part of the health accord, or separately for the proposed $3 billion in federal
SPORTS
funding for home care, we also recommend funds be allocated on a needs-based formula that accounts for demographics and population health. This approach will address the inequalities in regions such as Atlantic Canada, where currently one in five is a senior citizen. Canada urgently requires significant change in how the health needs of Canadians are met. Challenges such as demographic shifts, increasing numbers of frail and elderly Canadians, inequity in care for Indigenous peoples, and increasing demands for mental health and addiction services continue to grow. To meaningfully improve access to high-quality, affordable care, “more of the same” is not an option. CNA believes the necessary changes can be achieved using existing provincial, territorial and federal health-care funds. We further believe an accountability framework is required to ensure real change takes place. Sincerely, Barb Shellian, RN, MN

Official 2016-2017 Enrolments The official September 30th enrolment for Chinook School Division in 2016-2017 is 5,867, which is an increase of 79 students from last year. Chinook had a projected increase of 10. With home school students included, there are currently 5,999 total students in Chinook. There were some significant areas of increase within the Division: schools in the city of Swift Current are up 83 students, including 40 more students at SCCHS and 32 more at Central. Sidney Street School in Maple Creek increased by 17 students, Frontier increased by 13, and Consul and Hazlet increased by 12 and 11 respectively. The decreases this year included Ponteix, Shaunavon High School, Irwin, Wymark, Waldeck and Gull Lake; and there are 24 less students in the Hutterian schools. Chinook will continue to monitor the enrolments to determine if some of the changes are trends or anomalies.

Considering all factors, the Board made the decision to terminate the Division’s participation in the Prairie Learning Center, effective October 11, 2016.
OBITUARIES
Leota Irene Steele October 22, 1919 - October 06, 2016
Leota Irene Steele, beloved wife of the late Stanley Steele of Medicine Hat, passed away peacefully, with family by her side, on Thursday, October 6, 2016 at the age of 96 years. She leaves to cherish her memory her children, Dr. Thomas (Barbara Palmer) Steele and Donna (Dr. Sue Higgins) Steele and son-in-law, Joe Minor; her grandchildren, Dr. Heather (Dean Darwent) Steele; Erinn (Tim Keating) Steele and her children, Alison and Madison and their father Stephen Cosgrove; Amy (Travis) Peter and their children, Calden and Annie; Dr. Patrick (Jody) Minor and their children Hayden, Izabel and Sullivan; Jason Minor and his children, Toryn and Morrison (their mother, Leann Minor) and Phoenix and Broxx (their mother, Jodie Greer); Andrea (Thorin) Cenek and their children, Christian, Cassandra, Caitlyn and Caleb; and Neil (Susan) Palmer; one sister, Ilene (Fred) Peterson; one sister-in-law, Mable Hunter; one brother-in-law, Rev. Harry (Barbara Gregg) Steele as well as numerous nieces, nephews and their families. She was predeceased by her parents, Bert and Bertha Collier; her husband, Stanley on April 11, 2004; one grandson, Aldon Minor; her brothers, Cliff, Ray, Glen, Harold, Herb and Edgar and two sisters, Millie Gilchrist and Louise White. Mom and Dad were married in 1946, and during their working lives lived in Rosetown, Saskatchewan, Edmonton, Alberta, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and St. Albert, Alberta. In 1992, they relocated to Medicine Hat to be near their daughter Donna. They had purchased a new condo “Park Meadows”, and enjoyed 12 years socializing with their new friends, and took an active part in the condo association. Mom loved singing in the condo choir, playing cards, baking buns and working on the social committee. Mom and Dad throughout their lives were active in the United Church everywhere they lived, including Medicine Hat. At the same time our parents continued to travel in their motor home up until Dad’s death in 2004. For the next 9 years, Mom carried on her busy life including travelling with her family to Hawaii, Cuba, Ireland and a cruise on the Pacific coast as well as Alaska. In 2013, she reluctantly moved a few blocks away to “Meadowlands” assisting living. Mom was trained as a hairdresser and throughout her life she was meticulous about her hair. Her hairdresser was located at Meadowlands, so it was a natural fit to choose this facility. From 2013 until September 2016, Meadowlands was her home, which she learned to love. The family owes a big “thank you” to Margaret Jensen, who helped Mom adjust to assisted living. Here she particularly enjoyed the music volunteers who frequented their dining room to entertain. She was always in the front row, and always early. (Thank you to all those music volunteers! Please keep up the good work.) Mom was also an avid Medicine Hat Maverick’s fan and went to as many ball games as she could, travelling with family or Joe and Alice Meier or Carol and Steve Vandenbroek. She continued following her family’s activities, attending concerts, great grandkids sporting events, visiting her son Tom, at Christmas time in St. Albert, and attending as many
family reunions as possible from Saskatchewan to BC. In September 2016, she was admitted to St. Joseph’s Carmel Hospice. Mom and her family were so fortunate that this facility exits in Medicine Hat and that she was able to be one of the benefactors of the outstanding care and compassion that the staff provided. On Thursday evening, Oct. 6, 2016 Mom drifted away peacefully with daughter Donna and daughter-in-law Sue at her side. The funeral service was held in the Westminster United Church on Saturday, October 15, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. with Rev. Chelsea Masterman officiating. As an expression of sympathy donations may be made to the Carmel Hospice (St. Joseph’s Home) c/o 156 - 3 St. NE, Medicine Hat, T1A 5M1 or to Westminster United Church 101 6th Street SE, Medicine Hat, Alberta T1A 1G7. To e-mail an expression of sympathy, please direct it to: pattfh@telusplanet.net subject heading: Leota Steele , or you may visit www.pattisonfuneralhome.com and leave a message of condolence.

The family moved to Maple Creek in 1975 to assist her father, Albert with the ranch after Glen’s passing. Rita was involved with the CWL and the Catholic Church.
