HCI SADD to fellow students: don’t text and drive By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

It’s a sad reality. People of all ages are still texting and driving. The Students Against Drunk Driving HCI chapter wanted to curve that behavior in their fellow students with an awareness week for National Teen Driving Safety Week, Oct. 19 to 25. Student Eilish McAnally wanted other students to know, “you’re not just putting your life at risk, you’re putting other people’s lives at risk and it’s more of a problem than people think it is.” But even with a week of awareness at Humboldt Collegiate Institute, none of the students of the Students Against Drunk Driving group believed they’ve swayed their classmates not to text and drive. One student came to the sad conclusion. “I feel like it has to happen to a friend. If they lost a friend then they’d realize they’d have to stop.” The students planned a photo booth, handed out lifesavers with the phrase, ‘be a life saver, not a life taker’ on it, and on Oct. 22, they had death day, a day where students ‘died’ at the same rate they are killed by distracted driving. More needs to be done, says student Mackenzie Schidlowski, and it should not just be in schools, it should be community wide awareness, she says. Student Taylor Lins suggests getting the city and the community involved to talk about the dangers of distracted driving. “This is a little stepping stone, we have to get further,” Lins says.

Student Jordan LaBuick says starting younger would make a difference in teaching new drivers not to text and drive before they get their license. LaBuick also suggested showing a more realistic portrayal of losing someone. “Pick someone and show them what it would be like if they lost their friend. Then they’d realize they shouldn’t do that, it’s not right.” Teacher Jamie White says her students have done an awesome job in raising awareness. She’s ready to push them to the next level, like getting the mayor, the RCMP, and the grade 8 classes together, like the students have suggested. Traumatic presentations do seem to stick with the students, they said White recalls a presenter last year who brought his son out on stage with him to talk about texting and driving. He brought out an urn. The SADD students believed it was traumatic but says there were still classmates in the audience who believe it will not happen to them. For the students who’ve already lost friends or family or know someone in an accident where texting while driving was a factor, a speaker is someone they can relate to and they can agree that it is sad and traumatic. For someone who has not gone through that, students think it is never going to happen to them, said Lins. In a recent study by the University of Regina, there has been a drop in the percentage of youth who text and drive. The number of young people saying

they ‘sometimes’ or ‘almost always’ text and drive has dropped from 27 per cent to 6 per cent. However, the study also

relates this to other risky behaviours, like speeding and talking on the phone while driving.

Bring on the cold, Magic Socks are here By Megan Parker Health Columnist

We’ve hit that time of year where everywhere you look someone is coughing or sniffling or has a runny nose. It has cooled off outside and we’re full force back into school and routines. Everyone is stuck indoors and germs are being passed around. With all the germs floating around in the air, it’s inevitable we are going to catch at least one cold or flu this winter, but the goal is to keep our immune systems working well so we aren’t always tackling the latest bug. People always ask me what they can do to boost their immune systems and we discuss ways to keep their immune systems strong to prevent the onset of an infection. But what happens when you’re already feeling that twinge of discomfort at the back of your throat? Or you’ve developed an annoying dry cough? Sinuses are starting to become congested? Or what about when you’ve been sneezing all day and you just know you are going to be sick tomorrow? One of my absolute favourite treatments for any type of cold or viral infection is…… MAGIC SOCKS! They are also known as warming socks. Magic socks are a form of hydrotherapy that has profound influences on immune system function. Hydrotherapy is the use of water as medicine and since our bodies are composed of over 65% water, using water treatments can have many therapeutic benefits. Here’s what you do: Make sure your feet are warm before starting; if needed, have a warm bath or foot soak to warm them up. Thoroughly wet a pair of thin cotton socks in cold water. Wring them out really well and put them on your feet.

Next, put on a pair of thick wool socks overtop. Then, go to bed. I know it sounds simple and crazy and way too good to be true, but try it for yourself and see! Trust me on this one: you’ll thank me later! Here’s how it works: Your body will want to dry the socks and warm them throughout the night while you are sleeping. In order to do that, your circulatory system will be working overtime to get blood pumping through your feet. The more blood that flows in the area, the easier it is to warm and dry the socks. As we increase circulation, our lymphatic systems also increase in function. Our lymphatic system helps to drain congestion from our body and make sure that all secretions

What the new majority means for agriculture

Calvin Daniels It was at least somewhat of a surprise when the smoke had cleared and the Liberals had managed to win a majority. It had been clear for most of the campaign that there was a mood to see Stephen Harper’s reign as Prime Minister come to an end. But, in what remains basically a three-party system there was some expectation of enough splitting of the antiHarper vote that the Conservatives might hold on to some relevance for the next four

years. However, New Democrat support eroded, and Justin Trudeau’s message of a more hopeful, less fearful Canada caught hold and as they say the rest is history. In many ways this election took Canada back to its norms. In the 2011 election the Liberals were at a near all-time low with the lame-duck leader Michael Ignatieff at the helm. The NDP were riding an historic high with Jack Layton as the leader, the support he garnered slipping back to more long-term numbers under Tom Mulcair. Meanwhile the Conservative core stayed true, but Harper could not build on that. Of course on the Prairies, at least in Saskatchewan and Manitoba Conservatives carried the day. With the region predominantly populating

are loose and moving freely. When we stimulate both our circulatory and lymphatic systems we also boost our immune system function. Boosting immune system function improves our body’s ability to fight off any pre-existing infection or any lingering bugs that may be trying to cause symptoms. Another great benefit is that our body will be focusing a lot of energy in our lower legs and feet to get the blood pumping in that area. The more blood that is circulating through our feet, the less blood flow there will be in our upper body. Magic socks work great to drain any congestion in our head or neck so it is effective for sinus congestion, headaches, cough, sore throat, and all of those other cold related symptoms. Because there is less blood flowing in our head and necks, magic socks are also great for insomnia and can improve our quality of sleep. Doing magic socks at the first signs or symptoms of a cold can actually boost our immune systems so strongly that we can prevent a cold from developing in the first place. Using magic socks nightly throughout a cold can shorten the duration of symptoms. Because they are a gentle therapy and working to stimulate our own circulatory and immune system functions, magic socks are safe and effective for all ages. That means babies, toddlers, teenagers, adults and seniors. If you have any circulation concerns, poor wound healing, diabetes or neuropathy, please consult your doctor before attempting. I know that most of you already have wool socks exploding out of your dresser drawers. Next time you feel like you are coming down with a cold, put them to good use! Magic socks have therapeutic benefits that are (for lack of a better word) magical! This article is intended for educational and information purposes only.

the Opposition benches it will be interesting what that will mean in terms of agriculture policy from the Liberals. We are aware farm issues are not a priority in terms of the lack of rural influence at the polls these days. And now with most seats on the Opposition side we may not see Prairie agriculture being a huge Liberal priority, which is why most people aren’t expecting anything dramatic from Trudeau and whoever he appoints his Minister of Agriculture. With Harper and the Conservatives out we will also begin the process of assessing their overall record in all areas, including agriculture. In terms of ag the debate on the Conservative impact will start with the elimination of the Canadian Wheat Board, a process which

started with questionable tactics, Parliamentary questions, and ended with the ‘scorchearth- approach to the sell off of farmer and taxpayer-owned assets to ensure no government could turn back the clock. Whether history is favourable of the change, or not, the way the Conservatives went about changing the CWB should forever be questioned. The gutting of the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA), system, the head-in-the-sand approach to climate change, and weakening protection for most rivers will also be efforts history are not likely to look back on with favour. So maybe we should hope the Liberals do tweak a few things given the Conservative record in agriculture.

Focus on local at Naicam Trade Show By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

Wendy Ferguson has organized the Naicam Spring and Fall Trade Show for a number of years, always trying to focus on local businesses. Even though they are a small trade show like the one on Oct. 23-24 at Naicam Town Hall, Freguson says she is always full of businesses from Naicam and area. “We do our best to access all the homebased businesses that are central to Naicam and offer that to the community.� This trade show had a special theme. “It focused on people and/or companies that have products, services or knowledge to share that changes people’s quality of life, physically, emotionally or spiritually.� Says Ferguson. They also had a booth dedicated at North East Outreach and Support services. “They are busy raising money for their capital campaign to support the building of the Shelter in Melfort.� They will have a Winter Gala on Nov. 21 that will feature the Duelling Pianos and Elite Bartending, says Ferguson. The majority, if not all, the businesses were primary run by women. That’s just the demographic of home based businesses around Naicam, says Ferguson. This strong showing shows a strong entreprenurial spirit in women, says Ferguson. Women who take on a home based business are everything from stay at home moms

to having a fulltime job on the side. Freedom is a big part of choosing to start your own business, says Ferguson. “It’s giving us the freedom to make extra money to put back into our home and the freedom to express ourselves as individuals.� Even with the rewards of a homebased business, it can be challenging says Ferguson. Finding time to run a business fills in the cracks inbetween work and family life. “You get up, you have to get your kids to school, you have your job to get to 9-5, you get home, you got supper, you got hockey practice, dance class. You have all these things inbetween and then you finally get everyone tucked into bed and you still have to have the drive and the want to sit down at your computer or your books and get all of that done.� Even though it sounds challenging, a lot of women are taking on the small homebased business life. Ferguson says that even in a small community such as Naicam, she could have more booths at the show. Fifteen is the most that can fit in the Naicam Town Hall and they are always full, says Ferguson. With a bigger space, they could go as high as 20-25 booths, she says. Ferguson herself has had previous homebased businesses but this year she was promoting the Prairie Women on Snowmobiles group as one of the core riders of 2016. “I’m just here raising awareness on what Prairie Women on Snowmobiles are and taking donations for the project we have going.�

Celebrating 50 years at Reid-Thompson Public Library Author Candace Savage helps Reid-Thompson celebrate 50 years By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

To celebrate Reid-Thompson’s 50th anniversary as a regional library, author Candace Savage was invited in for a reading of her non-fiction work on Oct. 21. Savage says it was an honour to be apart of the celebration. She chose passages that were “suitably celebratory,” she says. “I had a great time and the cake was great,” she laughs.

Branch librarian, Rose Ward says, they appreciated Savage coming to do a reading. “We had her sponsored by the Saskatchewan Writer ’s Guild and she is an excellent speaker and author.” Savage says the times she was at Reid-Thompson have been completely welcoming and friendly. The thought of how important libraries are is just inconceivable, she says. “If you tried to establish something like that now, if we hadn’t just grown up to think that it was the most normal thing, it would almost be inconcievable that you have these little treasure houses, entertainment and artistry and ideas and they’re there for everyone.” There is something for everyone says Savage.

Crop report October 13th - 19th Harvest is virtually complete in the province as 97 per cent of the crop is now in the bin, up from 91 per cent last week, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report. The five year (2010-2014) average for this time of year is 98 per cent combined. Mild and relatively dry weather allowed most producers to complete harvest, although other producers will need another week or more to finish. The southeast region is the furthest advanced, having 99 per cent of the crop combined. The southwestern, east-central and northeastern regions have 98 per cent of the crop combined, the northwest has 97 per cent and the west-central region has 93 per cent. There are still some flax, canary seed and oat crops

left to be combined. Very little rainfall was received this past week, although some areas around Prince Albert reported receiving 10 mm. Across the province, topsoil moisture conditions on cropland are rated as six per cent surplus, 88 per cent adequate and six per cent short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as two per cent surplus, 85 per cent adequate, 12 per cent short and one per cent very short. Farmers are busy finishing harvest and fall work. This is the second-last Crop Report of the season. The final Crop Report will be issued on October 29.

Obituaries STEVENS: Janice Anne Nov. 4, 1952 - Oct. 14, 2015 Janice “Jan� Anne (nee Rode) S teve n s o f H u m b o l d t , S K , passed away on Wednesday, October 14, 2015, at Humboldt District Hospital following a courageous battle with cancer. She was 62 years of age. Jan was bor n to Theodore and Tena (nee Klassen) Rode on November 4, 1952, at Swift Current, SK. She was raised on a small farm near Swift Current, where hard work and her faith brought forth a strong work ethic and a respect for all, which transcended throughout her entire life as an RN. She trained at Holy Family in Calgary, AB, in a residence setting, where she became the one who guided and aided her peers even then. Jan began working in Saskatoon where she met Murray Stevens, and they were married in 1977. With Murray transferring due to work, Jan worked in Meadow Lake, Lloydminster, Eston, Watson, Davidson and, lastly, Humboldt. She began at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital part-time, leading to the night supervisor and then to Director of Nursing for 23 years. Jan and Murray’s first child Cailin Anne was born in 1981, followed shortly thereafter with Nicole Lorraine in 1983. Jan truly enjoyed spending time with her girls which involved baking, listening to music, and frequent road trips. The girls loved dance, which involved Jan spending countless hours sewing costumes, doing hair and makeup, and attending recitals. Jan showed great enthusiasm for shopping, reading, gardening, home decorating, shoes, and traveling with many friends and family. A good day was a cup of coffee or a glass of wine on the deck with her cat, enjoying the pleasures of her yard. She was known for her witty, dry sense of humor, and her contagious laugh. Jan loved listening to music, in particular attending the Jazz Festival, Craven, and countless concerts. Cheering on the Roughriders went without saying, but there wasn’t the same love for the NHL. Spending time with her extended family was an important part of her life, including camping at Emma Lake and Waskesiu, wine tasting tours in Kelowna, and holidays together in Mexico and the West Coast. Jan’s nursing career was such an integral part of her life, especially the interaction with her many staff members and caring for patients and their families. She was a wonderful example of what a dignified “classy� leader should be. Her gracious spirit, faith in God, and pure love of life truly defined who she was. She loved her entire family, but her granddaughters Shianne, Alyssa, Jordyn and Taryn were her precious pride and joy. Jan’s biggest regret was not being able to watch them grow up and share special times with them. “Always so good, unselfish and kind, few on this earth her equal we find. Honorable and upright in all her ways, loyal and true till the end of her days. Don’t be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.� Jan will be lovingly remembered by all she encountered, including her husband, Murray Stevens of Humboldt; two daughters and four granddaughters: Cailin (Curtis) Hergott of Humboldt and family, Shianne, Alyssa, Jordyn and Taryn Hergott; and Nicole of Vancouver, BC. She lovingly shared her life with family: two sisters: Lorraine (Arnie) Wentland and Darlene (Erny) Loewen, all of Kelowna, BC; sister-in-law, Bernice Rode of Swift Current; mother-in-law, Alice Stevens of Saskatoon; Ron (Shelley) Stevens and Linda (Wes) Garner, all of Saskatoon; and Shelley (Peter) Friesen of Raleigh, NC; and numerous nieces, nephews, and their families. She was predeceased by her grandson, Ethan Hergott; parents, Ted and Tena (nee Klassen) Rode; father-in-law, Lorne Stevens; and by her brother, Ken Rode. The Funeral Service was held at Westminster United Church, Humboldt, on Thursday, October 22, 2015, at 2:00 p.m., officiated by Rev. Brenda Curtis. Others taking part were: Jocelyn Wentland and Carmen Wentland, scripture readers; Ron Stevens and Yvonne Berscheid, eulogists; Lorrie Bunko and Allison Eichorst, memorial table attendants; Colin Stevens and Devin Gar ner, ur nbearers. Music ministr y was provided by organist Tanya Wuchner, soloists Maxine Moore and Kristen Raney, and the Westminster United Church Choir. An honor guard was formed by former colleagues of Jan’s. Honorary pallbearers were “all those who shared in Jan’s life.� Interment followed at the Humboldt Public Cemetery. Memorial donations may be directed to either the Humboldt District Hospital Foundation General Equipment Fund or the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada. Schuler-Lefebvre Funeral Chapel, Humboldt, SK.

New voting system could be on its way By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Green Party candidate Elaine Hughes appreciated all the votes for her in this last election. But to her, she sympathizes with these wasted votes. “You can’t get away from it unless you’re voting for the top two parties.” Says Hughes. According to Elections Canada, 14173 votes in the Carlton Trail-Eagle Creek riding were not for Kelly Block in a riding with a 72 per cent voter turnout rate. Nationally, in this last election, half the votes were for candidates who did not win their seat. Career Opportunities

In the current voting system, which we inherited from the British, constituents vote for Members of Parliaments within a riding so they have a seat in the House of Commons. These votes used to mean money for parties with a per-vote subsidy, until early 2015. The Harper government eliminated this pervote subsidy before this last election, so parties do not receive anything for votes cast except of course if they actually win the riding. One of Trudeau’s promises is a change of the current First Past the Post system for a system that would decide representation based on percentage of votes won by the party as a whole. For Hughes and the rest of the Green Party, this would mean more representation since they received 3.4 per cent of the popular vote. Hughes says this a big part of a discouraged voting pool. “Canada is diverse, we have several parties. Time after time, people get very discouraged... It has to change.” NDP candidate Glenn Wright received 18.7 per cent of the popular vote in Carlton Trail-Eagle Creek. He says that proportional representation would not have changed much in the riding itself but nationally, it would have made a big difference. “There are so many different variations on proportional representation that it does take some explaining. First Past the Post works for some countries, says Hughes but not for such a wide range of party representation. Holding Trudeau to account will be the first step in getting a new system in place, says Hughes. “He’s driving this bus so let’s get on it because the support for proportional representation is overwhelming.” Liberal candidate Alex Slusar not only ran in Career Opportunities

the federal election but also has a background in political science. What he knows of proportional representation is from the classroom. “It’s going to be taking a lot of review. Reforming an electoral system is not going to happen overnight, it’s going to take a lot of consultation, a lot of dialogue with many experts in political science and electoral systems.” Implementing the system is not going to solve all the problems, says Slusar, there still has to be the question of making sure the system represents all voters. When it comes to taking on those challenges of overhauling an entire electoral system, Hughes says it can be done and it is worth it. “With proper leadership, that will make all the difference. There is a process that can be done with this. We can work with the provinces, the territories, First Nations, political groups, everybody that’s interested should be at the table to come up with some acceptable process to explain what this is to the people, educate them on why we need this and stick to it.” First-Past-the-Post: “single-member plurality” system (also commonly called a “first-pastthe-post” system). In every electoral district, the candidate with the highest number of votes wins a seat in the House of Commons and represents that electoral district as its member of Parliament. An absolute majority (more than 50 percent of the votes in the electoral district) is not required for a candidate to be elected. (Elections.ca) Seat count under First Past the Post: Lib 184, Con 99, NDP 44, GPC 1, Bloc 10 Seat count under a Proportional system: Lib 135, Con 109, NDP 68, GPC, 11, Bloc 15

Patti Durand sees the power of small business. As an entrepreneur herself and working as a Small Business Advisor with Scotiabank, she wants to give people support as they start their own entrepreneurial endeavors. Durand wanted the many small businesses in Humboldt to be recognized for National Small Business Week. “It’s something that we really want to draw attention to in our community... it’s something we want to spend a lot of time on to provide really good advice.� Since definitions of small business can vary between government definitions to financial definitions, it can be hard to define who qualifies as a small business. “There’s a perception out there that we’re talking about Mom and Pop hot dog stands or little tiny do-it-yourself fix it shops, that kind of thing. Small business encompasses a huge range of business.� There is some big numbers in terms of how Durand and Scotiabank define small business. Lending up to $2 million in the agricultural sector still makes them a small business, says Durand. It’s important for people to realize what these small businesses generate, says Durand, she cannot fathom the dollar amount. Breaking it down, when all the employees wages are paid out and they spend that money in the community, it can add up. “Humboldt is a hub and those small businesses is part of what draws it. The diversity of what we offer here and what is generated has multiple spin offs.� From home business to trades to manufacturing businesses, “Humboldt and surrounding area is so entrepreneurial.� Says Durand. Through the Information Services publication, she sees that number of businesses that start up. She sends them welcome letters to each one and she says she has seen only one week where there isn’t as least one.

“For a community and an area of our size, to have that rate of business establishment is exceptional. We are comparable to communities like Prince Albert.� That entrepreneurial spirit and energy of Humboldt is something that everyone should know about, says Durand “Everybody should know what kind of opportunities are being generated here.� It’s difficult as a new business starting out, says Durand. There are a lot of expenses and really challenging. Durand says she directs new business owners to resources outside the realm of a bank. “While people have expectations that their traditional financing is through the bank, there are other venues and avenues to be taken.� Funding, business plan writing support, business coaching can be found outside Durand’s office, she says. “If you walk through my door, I’m going to connect you to the right people, whether it’s within the Scotiabank system or outside of that.� Many of these resources fit a variety of needs, says Durand. From starting a business and expanding a business to selling a business and retiring, there are lots of resources out there. “There are a number of different organizations that are really well geared and are there as a resource, recognizing the difficulty when someone is trying to open a new business.� Durand says, this entrepreneurial spirit in Humboldt is one people want to follow and you do not have to find success on your own. Even with her branch being situated in Humboldt, Durand says she covers all communities within a 30 minute radius. “When you’re starting a new business, it’s such an exciting time personally and if I can help them celebrate that and let them know I care to hear about it, hearing businesses stories is the best part of my job.�
