D: 7:30  M: 8:30  Delivering at times like a dive into a dark, warm ocean, and at others like a blast of icy water on bare skin, Yes We Mystic is a dynamic and emotional musical powerhouse originating out of Winnipeg. Approaching genre as a tool rather than a barrier, the band takes instruments, ideas, and sounds from wherever they can to craft something that is all at once exhilarating, heartrending, pummelling, and grand. Hurling rock together with folk, hip-hop, and R&B, strings and mandolins together with synthesizers, pedals, samples, and vocal effects, they come up with songs that can mellow and groove but climb in an instant to towering, frenzied heights.

Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart announced online consultations to help determine priority areas for the Next Policy Framework (NPF) last week. The current five year, federal-provincial-territorial agricultural policy framework, Growing Forward 2 (GF2), is set to expire at the end of March 2018. “We are looking ahead to ensure Saskatchewan interests are represented in the program framework to follow GF2,” Stewart said. “I would encourage everyone involved in the agriculture industry to let us know their priorities through this survey.” This short, online survey will focus on the six priority areas identified by Canada’s agriculture ministers in July 2016 for the next framework: market and trade; science, research and innovation; risk management; environmental sustainability and climate change; value-added agriculture and agri-food processing; and public trust. Participants will then be asked to rank program activities within those areas. Other suggestions, ideas and feedback are also welcomed.

“Under GF2 we already offer several programs that contribute to the six priority areas, but now is the chance to make adjustments to capitalize on new opportunities,” Stewart said. “As a government, we are focused on offering the programs and services that farmers, ranchers and agri-businesses need to be successful. Through the NPF, we will continue to make strategic investments that help strengthen our industry and the economy.” Information collected will help to inform the NPF program suite that will be in place by April 1, 2018. Results of the survey will be compiled and posted online after the survey closes. Business Risk Management (BRM) programs (Crop Insurance, AgriStability, AgriInvest and Western Livestock Price Insurance Program) are also part of the current framework, but are not included in this online survey. Separate consultations for these BRM programs will occur with the industry at a later date. The survey can be found on www.Saskatchewan.ca/GrowingForward2 and will be open from November 14, 2016 to January 31, 2017.

Southwest students visit Legislative Assembly

Students from Consul School and Val Marie School saw first-hand how their government works, through the Provincial Capital Commission’s A Day in the Legislative Assembly program last week. The program gives students a special opportunity to learn about the democratic process and Saskatchewan’s history. “This is a unique learning opportunity and experience for these young people that they will remember for a long time to come,” Minister Responsible for the Provincial Capital Commission Christine Tell said. “It’s always a pleasure to host bright, young students who are our province’s future and will eventually take on the responsibility of preserving our democracy. Perhaps some of them may even be inspired to become Members of the Legislative Assembly.” Tell introduced the students in the House and they had the chance to observe the daily Question Period. Following lunch, they had a rare opportunity to each take a Member’s seat in the Chamber, where they listened and asked questions during a panel discussion led by Speaker of the Legislative Assembly Corey Tochor. Other panel participants included

Minister Tell, Saskatoon Centre MLA David Forbes, and Clerk of the Legislative Assembly Greg Putz. The students were also treated to a tour of the Legislative Building. “Students learn best when they can see for themselves how things operate and speak to politicians first hand,” Consul School teacher Tami Reynolds said. “This opportunity allows rural students to have access to MLAs that they would not normally have and learn first-hand how our government works.” “Anytime you can be provided an opportunity to see and be a part of something like a visit to the legislature it enhances what students are learning,” Val Marie School Principal Angela Clement said. “This fits so well into our Grade 8 social studies program and may even have an influence on their career choices following high school.” A Day in the Legislative Assembly has been coordinated by the Provincial Capital Commission since 2012, and is offered twice a year. The next event is planned for spring 2017. The educational program teaches youth about the history and governance of the province, and inspires pride in Saskatchewan’s capital city of Regina and the province’s historic Legislative Building.

COR R ECTION

think we can all agree, we live in one of the best rated provinces in Canada. There is so much to be thankful for. The provincial government has carried us through some extremely difficult challenges with poise and skill. And it's certainly not the the three-ring circus our neighbours to the south are experiencing. "Premier Wall’s government points to a remarkable list of achievements, including: • The largest personal income and property tax cuts in the history of Saskatchewan; • Reducing the province's operating debt by 40 per cent and saving $1.2 billion in interest payments since 2008; • Population growth of 132,000 people in 8 years – more growth than the previous 75 years combined to an all-time high of 1.14 million people; • Implementing a Patients’ First Review of the province’s health care system and reducing surgical wait times from the longest in Canada to among the shortest; • The most aggressive youth retention program in the country to ensure Saskatchewan’s young people stay and work in the province; and • Record infrastructure spending to improve roads, schools, hospitals and senior's facilities all across Saskatchewan. Premier Wall is also a passionate advocate for the province’s most vulnerable, often saying that the purpose of pursuing economic growth is to “secure a better quality of life for all Saskatchewan people.” (Source: https://www.saskatchewan.ca/government/government-structure/cabinet/ honourable-brad-wall) Our vulnerable young people are not okay. We are NOT ok! Drugs, prostitution, homelessness and crime are on the rise. On the rise, here in Speedy Creek. Behind our white picket fences, and little houses, there is a vulnerable youth crisis. "In 2016, Saskatchewan reported a total of 18 opioid overdoses in the first nine months, including two accidental deaths involving fentanyl. However, those numbers exclude deaths that are still under investigation.” (Source: The Canadian Press) An accurate scope of this crisis is difficult to measure due to the privacy act, young offenders act and inconsistent nation-wide reporting. SW YES opened the doors to the public at Dorie's House in Swift Current last week. The 8-room facility is an excellent home for vulnerable youth and the support of the community is to be commended. The board of directors continue to lobby the Provincial Government for support. The Brad Wall government has offered $0 of support to date. I believe Mr. Wall cares for our young people and urge him to offer support to this wonderful facility that will save lives and money as his website states, "Premier Wall is also a passionate advocate for the province's most vulnerable". The lives and future of our youth are diminishing due to their vulnerability and lack of "safe" places to stay. In a report by Children First Canada, one in five children live in poverty, one in three experience abuse, one in five have considered suicide, one in five kids say they do not feel safe and supported in school and one child dies every nine hours due to preventable injuries. We live in the fifth most prosperous nation in the

entire world and yet our youth are suffering. Children ranked bullying, mental health and better support for those living in poverty as their top concerns. Children First Canada also stated, nearly nine-in-ten Canadians say that investing in children will pay off and save the need for additional expenditures in the future. This could not be truer. Money invested in vulnerable populations is long term money saved...statistics are on average $1 spent is $4-$9 saved long term! That's incredible! In an interview with Robert Hale, President of Southwest Youth Emergency Shelter we learned a lot. Q: Why did the board of directors come together to create a home like Dorie's House? A: The original founding board was made up of people representing various agencies in the community who work with youth. They have worked for decades with youth who struggle with finding a safe stable residence and they have seen the need frequently. The need has been present in the southwest for decades and the board felt that there was an opportunity now to create a facility to help serve young people in the southwest. Q: What indicated there was a need? A: We have seen and heard about the need from so many different groups and individuals in the community. From school counsellors who are trying to help young people find a safe residence to addictions workers and probation workers and parents in the community who are hearing about the need from their kids. While working with this board we hear the stories constantly about the need in the community and the individual stories of kids who for a number of different reasons would be helped by the service we are providing.

been overwhelming. It is not an exageration to say that hundreds of businesses and individuals have supported Southwest YES and Dorie's House along with numerous other service clubs and agencies and school groups. The community has made this project possible. It seems like every day another individual or group has come forward to offer help. The City of Swift Current has been very supportive with a donation of $50,000.00 towards purchase of a lot and they have provided other support in so many ways. The RM of Swift Current has contributed $5,000 toward the purchase as well. At this point the provincial government has not committed to providing funding. Given the need in the area and the overwhelming support from the community we feel it is time for the provincial government to join us and provide funding for ongoing operating expenses. We look forward to working with the provincial government to help serve young people in the area. Q: Will this home save the Province and City money down the road? A: If we can help a young person, the benefit to that young person and the community in the future is enormous. It allows that young person to start on a good path towards a good career and a life as a respected valued person in the community. And the long term savings for education, health, justice and social assistance will be huge. An investment in a young person is always well worth it.

Q: What does this home mean for Swift Current and area? A: This project shows what a great and caring community we have. People understand that when a young person is at risk it is something the whole community should be concerned about.

Smelling the Roses By Megan Lacelle megan@advancesouthwest.com

Abandoned buildings are not uncommon around Saskatchewan. You see them peppered through the hillside as you drive on gravel roads or paved highways. Some stand resolute, others haggard, against the plains which roll softly for miles. Gnarled trees sometimes stretch beside them, but oftentimes the worn wood stands alone. Homesteads, churches, and schoolhouses from another time can be found nearly everywhere in the province. I’ve always been attracted to these buildings, like history books, they often endure as the last remnants of a time and people long since gone. I personally love the old farmhouses which still have dishes in the cupboards and calendars on the walls. As though the owners simply went out for coffee one day and never came back. Or churches, like the one at Frenchville, that looms tall and distinct over the flat horizon. I like the character that emits from these rural museums. Their unkempt lawns and twisted shingles remind me of the hardy and charismatic people who continue to inhabit rural homes – both filled with treasured stories. It’s no surprise then why I travelled off the highway this past weekend on the way back to Saskatoon from Cadillac when I noticed a lone building to the East. I was travelling across Highway 4 north on the Saskatchewan Landing when I noticed the small white building. I’d made the drive hundreds of times, but never noticed it before. Always curious and forever in possession of my camera, I decided to see what mysteries this building had to hold. I took my car down the grid and stopped in front of the unyielding structure. At first glance it resembled a church with its steeple like design, but upon closer inspection it was clearly a single-room schoolhouse. The sign out-front reiterated the assumption reading “North Landing School Division 1914-1959.” I had just stepped out of my car when I noticed a high clearance sprayer coming down the grid, so I popped back into my car to ensure it was out of the way.

As I pulled onto a nearby approach, the sprayer stopped and a man climbed out of the machine. He was dressed in coveralls and reminded me strongly of the many uncles I have back home. “Am I in your way?” I inquired, inflecting a tone of apology. “Not at all,” he said. “I was just going to tell you to go inside and check out the school.” He explained that members of the area worked hard to keep the building up, noting both his grandfather and father attended school there. He pointed back south, the direction which he’d come, and said he was still on the family homestead. He asked me where I was from and explained he had some friends in Val Marie – where my mom is from. When he found out I was on my way back to Saskatoon for law school he looked surprised and then congratulated me. The conversation lasted a little longer before he finally wished me safe travels, told me to sign the guestbook inside, and resumed his daily work. So I followed his instructions and entered the old schoolhouse. The windows framed golden fields to the West and South, while the North wall was covered in a chalkboard – reminiscent of my own elementary school days. Signatures from all ages and years were inscribed in chalk, I added my own name to a small corner. I stood in silence for five minutes, soaking in the silence and classic prairie views before going outside once more and readying myself for the next couple hours of travel. The 30 minutes I spent visiting with that man and exploring the little schoolhouse was the highlight of my trip. What was normally a dull and unnerving trek had become a chance to revisit my favourite rural haunts. Had I continued my journey as I had every other time, I never would have met such a friendly man or appreciated such a beautiful view. It was a reminder to make the best of all situations. As Benjamin Franklin said, “take time for all things, great haste makes great waste.”

preaching restraint and attrition. But there’s only so far you can go with that. Now, I fear, 2017 will be the year “cutbacks” returns to the Saskatchewan lexicon in a big way. Increased taxes might be next. There’s a simple solution to this problem: magically make oil go back up to US$100 per barrel for WTI, and that deficit vanishes. It would make about a billion dollar difference in our finances. But unless you have an inside track with the Saudi king and/or oil minister, don’t bet on it. The 2013-14 budget, before the oil crash, oil was expected to bring in $1.441 billion. For the 2016-17, it was $509.7 million. Otherwise, probably the easiest, single thing the province can do is increase the provincial sales tax. At $262 million for each point on the sales tax, you would need almost three percentage points to roughly make up the deficit, and four if you wanted to make up the oil shortfall. That’s based on the 2016-17 budget, released in March, anticipated $1.312 billion on a five per cent PST. Sure, dramatic increases in potash could make the difference. Uranium would help. But it’s oil that really makes the difference. For the last two years, the oil downturn has hurt primarily the oilpatch areas of the province. Now its impact will be felt by everyone.

Australian Snow Day By

Cleo Morvik

ack at home we're all familiar with a snow day. Roads are closed. Kids get to stay home from school. Outdoor work slows down. Here in Australia, we're dealing with what we can call the equivalent - a fire ban day. A fire ban is a restriction on any type of activity that could potentially start a fire, or cause anyone harm due to the heat. The local farmers receive a text message from their shire (like our R.M.), stating when the fire ban has been set and when it has been lifted. The shire of Lake Grace set the fire ban here at 8:00 am this Tuesday morning, prohibiting anyone to carry on harvesting. That includes running any combines or even moving other large machinery. If you're caught doing anything other than hauling water to thirsty animals, you're given a hefty fine of a couple thousand dollars. The temperature around the farm and surrounding area today was an estimated high of 40 degrees Celsius. When Rusty and I got out to the field and started servicing the combine at 7:30 am it was already 24 degrees out. At 12:30 pm it was 36 degrees. And that's how you know it's going to be a hot one. But it's not just heat that creates the extreme fire risk, it's the blowing wind that would spread the fire to unimaginable distances that puts the danger over the edge. Today there has been wind gusts of over 50 km/hour. On our way back home this morning after getting word about the ban, Rusty was sent a text message from the fire brigade in Hopetoun, 200 km's from the farm. The message was a warning about a fire already going just outside of the small town. The fire ban is no joke. I also wasn't joking about students getting a free pass from attending school. Some schools opt to close for the day as a precautionary measure. In the past, schools have had to evacuate because of the impending danger of a nearby fire catching in the wind and spreading into town. Again, this fire ban stuff is serious business. As much as we would have liked

to use the sunshine to knock a few hectares off, we obeyed the fire ban and spent the afternoon resting up for a long and productive night of harvest. Us four young trainees tried to take advantage of our few hours off work this afternoon while still being on-call, should the ban be lifted. We spent some much needed hours vegging out in front of the television, swatting flies, and enjoying each other's company (a.k.a. making fun of each other's accents.) At 6:00pm we got the call from the boss. It was time to head back out to the paddocks and get the machines ready to roll, in hopeful anticipation of the demise of the fire ban. After a quick change of plans, we disassembled the header from the combine and began our convoy down to a different paddock. I sang the Corb Lund convoy song all the way there, thinking we were indeed quite a sight with our header in the lead being hauled by a ute, the service truck, the grain cart, the field bin in the tractor's tow, and the naked combine at the caboose. We slowly made our way down the new paddock where we could have both combines cutting together on the barley. I noted that at about 7:30 pm it was still a whopping 32 degrees outside, but it must have been cool enough because we got the O.K. from the shire at 7:00pm that the fire ban was officially lifted. From then, the race was on. With Tom and I on the combines and Mathis and Kerry running the chaser bins, (what we would call the grain cart,) we worked as quickly as we could with rain in the forecast. Our instructions were to go full throttle until either it rained, the crops got too tough, or we ran out of space to store the grain. The latter ended up being the cause of our shut down. At about 3:30 am we let the headers cool down and called it quits for the night. Groggily, our quartet made its way to the only vehicle left in the field to get us home. A two passenger ute. We groaned, then we laughed. Then we all crammed in, and on, and went home to bed.

East Side Church of God celebrating 100 years and counting By Kailey Guillemin kailey@advancesouthwest.com

2016 will be a year to remember for Swift Current’s East Side Church of God. Six months of planning, three different committees and multiple volunteers led to one successful day. On September 11, East Side celebrated their 100th anniversary. In 1914, families from Russia settled into the Hallonquist area. Over time their at home bible studies grew to the point that a building was needed to house them all. “So the first church was actually built in 1016 by these homesteaders. They built it all themselves and it cost $300 to build at the time,” Darlene Busse explained. Busse is the church historian having been attending East Side on and off since 1950. In 1976 Busse and her

children moved to Swift Current where she has regularly been attending since. Over time the congregation began to grow and the building capacity was reached. 1936 the second church was built for the growing congregation. 1956 came along and the next church was established. 1976 the congregation moved into an already existing building that would house the continuously growing congregation. 1990 they moved into a brand new church that is still home to this day. “If anyone of these churches would have said you know what, let’s not continue, let’s just stay in this little church, not build so we can grow,” Busse explained. “It’s just the vision to keep going.” East Side calls themselves non-denomination and has opened arms to anyone and everyone. Their nickname throughout the community is the Hospital Church. “It doesn’t matter if you’re hurting and come, they will look after you,” Busse said. Shauna Friesen is the Director of Care and Administration at East Side and has been attending with her family for over a decade. The six months of planning kept growing and growing into the combined

Sunday morning worship service with an old fashion carnival style celebration in the afternoon. “There was a lot of people involved [and] it came off fantastic,” Friesen said. “Everyone had their favourite thing for sure [and] they absolutely loved it.” During the service East Side brought in a former pastor as a guest speaker. That was the beginning of the celebrations. Afterwards, the event moved to a large tent outside where a barbeque was fully underway. Members of the congregation and the community could participate in a pie judging contest, ball throwing contest, the old-school strongman game and even get your face painted. There was even a petting zoo!

Basically anything you can imagine from a classic fair, it was there. Inside the building there was a museum-like set up for the history of the church. Seniors from the congregation gathered inside to share stories and reminisce about early times of the church. “In the congregation that day, because so many people have ties to East Side, they may not be attending anymore but there’s 400 people here and about 250 stayed for the barbeque,” Friesen said. “Probably about just over 100 people…went back into the sanctuary telling stories and singing.” “It was amazing. People loved it, very much loved it.” The day was exciting to be able to celebrate 100 years of a growing congregation. But for Friesen, it was much more. “I’ve been here 10 years but I had no idea of exactly how the church itself started,” Friesen explained. “It was important to me to show the people that are attending now where the church came from and how we are so blessed with what they did for us to get it to where we are now.” The youth ministry within the church is continuing to grow. East Side plans to expand again for the continuously growing congregation.

“Reflections of Ukraine: Ukrainian Churches of the Saskatchewan Countryside” by Lloyd & Rose Virag Review By

Keith Foster

ave you ever wondered about all those little churches that dot the Saskatchewan landscape? Lloyd and Rose Virag have pondered them too, and set out on a motor trek of discovery. Focusing specifically on Ukrainian churches because of Rose’s ethnic background, their results are recorded in Reflections of Ukraine: Ukrainian Churches of the Saskatchewan Countryside, an attractive coffee table book they self-published. Lavishly illustrated with more than 700 colour photos taken at 160 different sites in Saskatchewan, the book showcases 142 country churches. The first seven chapters include Ukrainian Orthodox, Ukrainian Greek Orthodox, Ukrainian Catholic, and Ukrainian Greek Catholic churches. The next two chapters feature three Russian Orthodox churches and a surprising variety of other denominations with Ukrainian connections. Chapter ten shows a selection of cemeteries where the churches no longer exist. In captions and photos, the Virags have assembled a wide collection of churches, cemeteries, and small chapels, known as kaplychkos. And these are just the ones that still exist. Some of the churches have been replaced more than once as the congregation grew. Many of them were originally built from logs. Many have been restored; others are badly in need of restoration. Looking at some of these churches, it’s easy to visualize recently arrived Ukrainian immigrants in their worn, handmade clothes hard at work in the midday sun. One can almost see them cutting logs, shoring them up, spreading mud between the cracks, both inside and out, then whitewashing the interiors and exteriors. Multiple photos of the same struc-

tures taken from various angles in different seasons reveal intriguing perspectives. Hoar frost glistens against a close-up of an onion dome on a Ukrainian Greek Orthodox Church near Kuroki, for instance. Most photos, however, were taken in summer. Although the Virags took most of them, members from the respective churches also contributed. In addition to consulting local history books, the Virags drew on information from people they contacted on their journey. Historic plaques at the sites also provide background information. A map of Saskatchewan on the back of the book highlights the rural municipalities where Ukrainian churches are scattered throughout the province, with a large concentration north-west of Yorkton. Armed with this 320-page hardcover book, readers are able to take self-guided tours. Compiling these colourful images for their coffee table book was obviously a labour of love for the Virags, and a tribute to Rose’s Ukrainian heritage. Reflections of Ukraine: Ukrainian Churches of the Saskatchewan Countryside is also a flattering tribute to these little Ukrainian churches that inhabit our prairies and woodlands.

Grand Opening of Swift Current's New Long-Term Care Facility Contrubuted editor@advancesouthwest.com

Rural and Remote Health Minister Greg Ottenbreit joined residents at The Meadows Friday to celebrate the official opening of the award-winning, long-term care facility in Swift Current. “This innovative new facility is an excellent example of our government’s commitment to patient-centred care,” Ottenbreit said. “With residents, families and staff all involved in the design, the result is this beautiful and modern long-term care facility that more than 200 residents are now calling home.” The Meadows project recently received a silver award in the infrastructure category from the Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships (P3) during its 2016 National Awards for Innovation and Excellence in P3s. The award panel recognized the project for its home-like design and the high level of engagement from local businesses. The new 225 bed long-term care facility is the first completed project in the province using a P3 funding model in co-operation with Plenary Group, SaskBuilds, and the Cypress Health Region. It was completed on schedule and on budget at the beginning of May 2016.

“It’s a very exciting day for our region as we officially open The Meadows, our beautiful new home-like long-term care facility,” Cypress Health Region CEO Beth Vachon said. “The Meadows has been an important project and is a vast improvement over the facilities that it replaces. I extend my sincere appreciation to all of those who have been involved in bringing this project to life.” The transition and move into the new facility was complete mid-September this year. The Meadows replaces three aging long-term care facilities in the community – the Swift Current Care Centre, the Palliser Regional Care Centre and the Prairie Pioneers Lodge.

Manufacturing Sales Jump in September Contrubuted editor@advancesouthwest.com

Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sales took a leap in September from a year ago, increasing by 8.2 per cent, the highest rate among the provinces and more than five times the national average. On a monthover-month basis, manufacturing sales were up 1.0 per cent, the third best among the provinces. Manufacturing sales in September were $1.24 billion. “Manufacturing is one of the mainstays of the Saskatchewan economy and the impressive year-over-year growth is good

news,” Economy Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “Our provincial manufacturers are innovative, competitive-minded and are meeting the needs of global markets with made-in-Saskatchewan solutions.” On a year-over-year, seasonally-unadjusted basis, sectors that saw significant growth included food manufacturing, which increased by 34.3 per cent, machinery manufacturing which was up by 16.8 per cent and wood products which increased by 31 per cent. About 26,200 people work in Saskatchewan’s manufacturing sector, which posted total sales of $14.1 billion in 2015.

A few of my favourite garden tools By

Erl Svendsen

ike most people, I get a lot of junk email. I’ll admit some of it is my own fault as I voluntarily subscribe to certain sites. One of them is a cooking magazine. About once a month, they send out an email with a themed ‘curated’ collection of kitchen tools, for example for the baker or the barbequer. That got me thinking of the tools I regularly use a gardener. A couple of ground-rules. First, I’m a strong believer in ‘tools for life’. They must be sturdy, solid (no hollow metal tubes for handles if I can help it) and non-rusting, stainless steel if possible. Second, they have to be comfortable to use and actually be good at what they’re supposed to do. Here a short list of some of my favourites. Heavy duty, one-piece cast aluminum trowels. I have two – a 4” wide one for digging substantial holes quickly (great for planting large transplants in the spring) – and a long narrow one for digging narrow deep holes, excellent for getting out dandelion roots from the lawn without leaving large craters or planting bulbs individually. The handles have bright orange rough rubber grips for visibility and comfort. Hori hori knife. A friend of mine couldn’t shut up about hers so I had to give it a try. Now it’s my constant gardening companion. It looks like a cross between an ordinary trowel and a kabar military knife – shiny, stainless steel, slightly curved, pointed 7” long blade with a sharpened smooth edge on one side and a sharp serrated edge on the other. For an added bonus, it has a 6” ruler embossed down the middle of the blade. Great for digging up and dividing perennials. Japanese hand-hoe. The basic design is an offset, 4” wide halfmoon head attached to a short handle. The business end is sharp and is useful for simply separating

weeds from their root system as you pull it along the soil surface. It has pointy ends that are good at getting in close to dig out small weeds without damaging your vegetables or ornamentals. This is my absolute favourite gardening tool! Rabbiting spade. The shovelhead is narrower and longer (5 – 6” wide x up to 12” long) than your usual spade. This is great tool for digging up and transplanting perennials and small shrubs. It is also good for digging deep narrow trenches (hence, it’s other common name – trenching spade) if you’re installing an irrigation line or a short, shallow drainage trench. Axe file. This is invaluable for keeping shovels, hoes (including the hand-hoe) and, of course, axes sharp. A sharp tool make for quick and easy work – a real back saver. Wide landscape rake. I bought my 3-foot wide rake when I was redoing my lawn several years ago. It is super for spreading out low mounds of soil and makes quick work of leveling larger areas. I now use it every spring to level out my community garden plot. Good quality hand pruner. My pruner of choice is the Swiss-made Felco #2 pruner. The blade is easy to keep sharp and can be replaced if damaged. There are left-handed versions as well as long-handled and ergonomic ones. The handles are solid cast-aluminum for durability and covered with bright red plastic for visibility. Obviously designed to cut branches cleanly without crushing, I also use mine to trim back grasses and other perennials in the fall. Leather gloves. No cloth or rubber gloves for me. My leather gloves are comfortable and long wearing. They protect my hands from drying soil and peat moss as well as the errant sharp blades of my pruners on the occasions when I’m not paying close enough attention.

The Angus industry in the southwest corner of Saskatchewan is getting some well-deserved recognition. The latest inductees into the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame will showcase a familiar name to those in the Aneroid area. Bob Switzer, born and raised in the Aneroid area and owner of Sandy Bar Ranch, was inducted into the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame on November 6. Appreciation, delightfulness and simply being shocked are a few ways you could describe Switzer’s reaction to his induction. “It’s the last thing you think of when you’re running a ranch to day to day operations,” Switzer exclaimed. “To be honoured by your peers is pretty awesome.” The Switzer family has been involved in the ranching lifestyle and Angus business for over a century. The legacy of the Sandy Bar Ranch and their award winning Angus has been passed down from generation to generation. The lifestyle of the ranching business keeps Switzer and his family happily involved. “We love the way of life. The people are second to none,” Switzer explained. “It’s a great place to raise your family and make a very good living.” Growing up Switzer was involved in showcasing his cattle in 4-H competitions. This eventually came to an end as Switzer’s commercial sales and involvement in the industry continued to grow. Almost 40 years ago Switzer was involved in the start of the first Angus Cross Feeders which made its way across western Canada and the northern part of the United States. This led into bull trading which with continuous growth over the years, has put Switzer to where he is today.

Another major accomplishment for Switzer was the creation of the Red Coat Cattle Feeders in 1998. This all started with a familiar complaint made by more than one producer. “Our grain and our kids and our cattle were all going basically to Alberta or Ontario and why couldn’t we have any industry right here in Southwest Saskatchewan?” Switzer said. The group decided to create their own feeder which in the end led to employing local ranchers. On October 6, 2000, the Red Coat Cattle Feeder opened for business. Since then, it has doubled in size, employing 17 full time workers along with multiple part time positions. But Switzer’s honour couldn’t have come without the help of his family, friends and other ranchers in the area. “When I was on the road either attending meetings or doing whatever, I had a tremendous team at home,” Switzer explained. “Without them, no person is possible to get this done.” The induction itself was an event to remember for the entire family. The Switzer’s travelled to Toronto, Ontario where the induction ceremony took place at the Royal Winter Fair. Switzer was nominated by the Canadian Angus Association for his outstanding contribution to the Angus community. Not only that, Switzer was involved within his community being on different boards, including the local rink board for when the new rink was under construction. The Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame write up on Switzer said “Bob was instrumental in introducing the Certified Angus Beef brand to the entire value chain, from the cattle industry, Canadian hotel and restaurant trade, and ultimately consumers.” Bob Switzer’s ideals in family, community, ranching and Angus will now live on through the Hall of Fame as well as generations to come.

Sara’s Children

After a long journey, Cindy Whyte's dresses and bracelets arrived in Malawi at Sara’s Children with Dr. John Barkley. Barkley said the look on the children’s faces was absolutely amazing! The girls loved the dresses and bracelets - even some of the boys. All the children received school uniforms, lots of food and clothing - even a Canadian Thanksgiving dinner with chicken rice and vegetables. The response from the southwest has been phenomenal. 530 shirts and baby clothes, plus $500 cash … all donated in Cindy Whyte’s name. Thanks to everyone who donated to Sara’s Children. “The success with clothing and feeding the children has inspired us to continue to feed the children of Malawi,” said John’s mother Jane Barkley. Jane and her crew of organizers will be planning additional fundraisers in the upcoming months. The original article of love and generosity can be found on our website http://www.advancesouthwest.com/moved-by-malawi/

KidSport Calls on Canadians to Give the Gift of Sport this Holiday Season National not-for-profit aims to raise $75,000 to help more children play organized sport in 2017 Contributed editor@advancesouthwest.com

KidSport Saskatchewan launched their fifth annual Give the Gift of Sport fundraising campaign today, calling on Canadians to donate online at KidSport.ca/GiftofSport. Over 30 percent of Canadian youth under the age of 18 cannot afford to play organized sport. With the help of Canadians across the country, KidSports annual campaignrunning until January 9, 2017aims to get more kids off the sidelines, into the game, and experience the gift of sport. Organized sport provides our children with so many benefits. We know it can help them be healthier, but it can also help them with things like their education and social development, says Jamie Ferguson, Chair of KidSport. In essence, sport can provide our children with a head start on life. At KidSport we believe every child deserves that chance. Please give to our Give the Gift of Sport campaign and help make more head starts happen. According to the 2014 CIBC KidSport Report, 82% of Canadians know a child who cannot

participate in organized sport due to financial barriers. KidSport wants to change these statistics by providing grants to the growing volume of applications received each year, and continue to fund sport registration fees for more than 100 different sports across Canada. Since its creation in 1993, KidSport has helped over 600,000 kids from coast to coast to coast receive grants and sport introduction programming, thanks to the help of the Government of Canada, national corporate partners like CIBC, Jays Care Foundation, Oxford Learning and the generosity of Canadian donors. There is new demand each year, however, and KidSport can make a bigger impact with your help by donating to the Give the Gift of Sport campaign. In 2015, KidSport Saskatchewan provided grants to 8,459 children so they could access organized sport programs in our province. This remarkable achievement would not have been possible without the support from our volunteers, donors and our provincial partners. Thank you for your continued

support this holiday season! Without support from KidSport, I wouldnt have had the chance to pursue my dreams and eventually represent Canada on the world stage, says two-time Olympian and a past KidSport grant recipient Richard Hortness. Having the opportunity to play organized sport taught me so many valuable life lessons that all Canadian youth should have the opportunity to experience. Every donation counts and will contribute to making a difference in a childs life. An average donation of $250 can provide one child a full season of sportthe type of gift that will last well beyond the holidays. Make your contribution today to Give the Gift of Sport at KidSport. ca/GiftofSport, where personal, corporate or tribute donations can be directed to any of KidSports 178 community chapters. Learn more about KidSport and join the holiday conversation on Twitter @KidSport, @ KidSportSK and #GiftofSport, on Facebook.com/KidSportCanada, Facebook.com/KidSportSK or online at KidSport.ca/GiftofSport.

Job Posting – Maple Creek Campus Maple Creek, Saskatchewan Job ID 23-05-01-16

Educational Assistant Sterling North is seeking a full-time (1.0 FTE) Educational Assistant for the Maple Creek Campus in Maple Creek, SK starting November 28, 2016. Special Education qualifications would be considered an asset. Sterling North – Maple Creek Campus has an enrollment of 23 students from grades 3-12.

Currently, the system provides over 1 100 students aged 8-18 with an outstanding and challenging education.

Intense, cinematic art pop coming to Lyric stage

Desired Qualifications: • a recent criminal background check, including a vulnerable sector search (VSS); • a willingness to be part of a collaborative educational team; • effective communication skills, both oral and written; • professional learning community (PLC) knowledge and background preferred; • evidence of sensitivity and respect for others and a willingness to work within cultural boundaries;

Interested applicants are asked to submit a resume and cover letter to hr.north@sterling.education. Please specify the position and location for which you are applying.

n Saturday, December 10th, the Lyric Theatre will be hosting the talented musical powerhouse, Yes We Mystic. Originating out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, the band takes instruments, ideas, and sounds from wherever they can to craft something that is all at once exhilarating, heartrending, pummelling, and grand. Throwing opposites together has been a practice that they keep coming back to. The result is both unconventional and weirdly relatable. If you had to put a finger on it, perhaps the best descriptor for the band’s sound is “intense, cinematic art pop”. The band took a bold step toward this new direction in their 2015 two-song 7” ‘Vestige’, a change from their folkier 2013 debut. It’s not often that a short EP from a young band stirs up as much excitement as Vestige did. The release, though just a tiny sampling of what was to come, was met with acclaim

from all across the country. Yes We Mystic works constantly at building and then defying expectations. Their new record, Forgiver, is sure to do just that. The album acts as their sonic ‘Rosetta Stone’, laying out everything that the band has picked up along the way, as well as the innovative approach to songwriting that they have held with them since the beginning. With its lush, atmospheric guitar tones, delicately woven melodies, explosive drums, and aching lyrics, Forgiver is a howling wind coming from a place of irrefutable honesty. You will not want to miss Yes We Mystic! Tickets are $30 and can be purchased at Pharmasave. Doors will open at 7:30pm and the music will begin at 8:30pm.

AGRICULTURE

Timelines to Complete On-Farm Projects Access funding options for forage and livestock producers By Sarah Sommerfeld, PAg Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture

For many producers across the province, the 2016 growing season has posed many challenges. As the fall season progresses, there is still much work left to do, but producers may also be focusing their attention to planning for the 2017 growing season. Plans may include development of a new water source, improving grazing management or seeding down forages on soils prone to erosion or salinity. For these types of on-farm projects, producers can access cost-shared funding through the Growing Forward 2 framework of agriculture programs. The Growing Forward 2 agriculture policy framework will be ending on March 31, 2018. With that date in mind, there are deadlines to be aware of with respect to the different funding programs available. The Farm and Ranch Water Infrastructure Program (FRWIP) provides costshared funding to help develop secure water sources. These water sources can be dugouts, large or small diameter wells, community wells and shallow or deep buried pipelines. The On-Farm component of FRWIP provides cost-shared funding to develop sustainable non-potable water supplies for agricultural use. For individual producers, the On-Farm component of FRWIP will cover 50 per cent of the eligible costs up to a maximum of $60,000 for developing long term sustainable water sources. FRWIP applications must be received by August 1, 2017. All claim forms for approved projects must be submitted by February 15, 2018. The Farm Stewardship Program (FSP) provides eligible producers with financial assistance to implement beneficial management practices (BMPs). Under the FSP, 23 BMPs exist under seven categories. When applying to the FSP, two types of program applications exist pre-approval or rebate. Pre-approval

applications require that projects must receive prior approval before any work is completed. Rebate applications do not require pre-approval, and the program application can be submitted once the project is complete. FSP pre-approval applications must be received by June 30, 2017. All claim forms for approved projects and all rebate applications must be received by January 31, 2018. For producers wanting to improve the grazing management on native rangeland or riparian areas, two BMPs exist. The Native Rangeland Grazing Management BMP and Riparian Area Grazing Management and Fencing BMP are pre-approval applications. Producers must submit a pre-approval application prior to starting the project. The FSP will cover 50 per cent of the eligible costs up to a maximum of $10,000 for implementing either of these BMPs. Producers looking to convert highly erodible and/or saline land from annual grain production to permanent cover can apply for the Protecting High Risk Erodible and Saline Soils BMP. This BMP works as a rebate application and does not require pre-approval prior to producers completing the project. Cost-shared funding is available to cover 50 per cent of the eligible costs up to a maximum of $10,000. Accessing funding under the Growing Forward 2 programs requires that all producers meet basic eligibility requirements. Each type of project also has specific guidelines relating to producer eligibility and eligible and ineligible project costs. For further information on Growing Forward 2 programs or for technical assistance regarding a specific on-farm project, contact your local Regional Forage Specialist, or your Agri-Environmental Group Plan technician working within your watershed, the Agriculture Knowledge Centre at 1-866-457-2377 or Program Design and Delivery Branch at 1-877-869-4008.

SPIRITUAL GLEANINGS

Stay Alive Through Life By Joyce Sasse www.canadianruralchurch.net

You could be your worst enemy if the prospect of getting older is a fearful thought. We can live longer these days, but we need to ready ourselves mentally, physically and spiritually. Look ahead well before retirement age. It is a time when you will step into a whole new phase of life. Make it an opportunity! Keep yourself alert and keep fit. Develop a post-retirement work-plan. Strong spiritual beliefs will help you move forward without being controlled by side-winds. Instead of focusing on your losses, think about how you can express gratitude (to others and to God). As we get into additional years, we need to accept that we will probably have less than perfect health and will have to cope with pain. Pay attention to your diet and exercise. Forgive yourself when necessary, and be ready to learn from others.

Planning ahead includes accepting responsibility for when to stop driving, when to down-size, how to accept help from others…. Stay connected. Intentionally develop new friendships as you lose loved ones. Involve yourself by volunteering, by sharing stories from your experiences with life, and by caring about the well-being of those around you. Don’t keep thinking you have to fulfil other people’s expectations. Do what is important to you. “When I thought the world rested on my shoulders, God put things into perspective. When I lashed out at an unfair world, God calmed me down. When I drifted into harmful ways, God straightened me out …” (James Taylor) We can celebrate God’s presence at each stage of our life-journey. We can acknowledge the Mystery that awaits us as we approach death. We can embrace the Presence that calms our fears. We can feel reassured that the love of God surrounds us as we pass through death to another way of being.
