The 4th annual Wadena Health Action Auction 2016 was a great success for the Health Action Group with approximately $33,000 to go to health related projects in the Wadena area. They received resounding support from Wadena and the surrounding communities and judging by the increased amounts of fundraising for the yearly event, health care is obviously something very important to the area, says Somner McLeod with the Health Action Group. A pizza party, face painting, and other events for the kids made it a family friendly event, as well as Beef on a Bun Supper, Dessert Auction, Live Auction, Silent Auction, and other fun games of chance. photo courtesy of Kathy Christianson

Bruno opens their doors for open house By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Bruno became a busy place with their open house on Oct. 20. The Bruno Fire Department, Bruno Library, and the Bruno Fitness Centre all stayed open until 9 pm and gave demonstrations, readings, and refreshments to the hundreds that came through their doors. Captain Kevin Thiel of the Bruno Fire Department walked people through the Fire Hall and talked about fire extinguisher safety and even let a young man put out a fire with the extinguisher. When using an extinguisher, says Thiel, remember PASS; Pull the tab, Aim, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep. Fifteen members of the volunteer fire crew cover an area from the HWY 5 and 2 junction to Carmel, and north and south towards Cudworth and Meacham. They get together twice a month a practice, do checks on the trucks, and have meetings, says Thiel. The Bruno firefighters also train at the Provincial Firefighters School put on by the Saskatchewan Volunteer Firefighters Association. Thiel says they respond to six calls a year which are mostly motor vehicle accidents.

Right now, they are not involved in extraction but Thiel says they are currently getting trained in vehicle extraction and are buying the equipment. “We’re not quite there yet but we’re getting trained towards it, making sure all our guys are trained to use the equipment.” The Bruno Fitness Centre has been open to Bruno at their current main stree location for the last 10 years and has a 24 hour open door policy. Sharon Huber with the Centre says they are finding enrollment down over the past few years. Bruno sees a lot of people come and go in the community and Huber says there is always that chance that people do not know they exist. “We wanted to get it out to the public that we’re here... we don’t want to see this place close.” With two treadmills, an elliptical trainer, weight system, dumbbells, medicine balls, and so much more, Huber says they put a lot of work in the place. People in Bruno also have access to a physical trainer who is willing to come out and provide instruction. Having this instruction can put people at ease around the machines, says Huber, and no matter the age can also help them figure out their fitness goals.

The Bruno Library took the opportunity to plan a coffee house night to go along with the open house. Eight performers read poetry and books, sang, and played instruments while the library provided refreshments. Librarian, Donna Olchowski, wanted a chance to invite some new faces into the library beyond the crowd of regulars. “We got some new patrons signed up and people through the door that had never been in the library before, young and old.” Another new guest for the Bruno library was a cast skull from Scotty, the Saskatchewan T-rex. People who saw him were shocked at the size of him, says Olchowski. Scotty’s head always has visitors, including a home schooling family who comes in and does projects on him a couple times a week. Scotty has a warm place to stay at the Bruno Library for the winter and will be returning to his home at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum in the spring. Having all three locations have open houses on the same night really worked well, says Olchowski. The library is looking to do more coffee houses with refreshments and entertainment in the future, she says.

Winter readiness program makes sure everyone is prepared for winter By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Saskatchewan winters can be tough. The cold. The wind. The wet. These things can be especially hard if you are new to Canada. The Humboldt Regional Newcomer Centre and Safe Communities again put on their Winter Preparedness program on Oct. 21 at LeRoy School so they could advice newcomers on how best to handle this new experience. Around 20 adults and children came to the presentation and very few had actually experienced a Canadian winter. Four presenters brought four topics of discussion to the workshop, including fire safety, winter driving safety, child safety, and medical safety. Elvircia Natlazo with the Necomer Centre says most newcomers to Canada are coming from warm countries and have very little idea of what winter is like. This way they learn about fire hazards, winter car safety kit, and other things Canadians may take for granted about winter, she says. James Burton with the Lanigan and District Ambulance, along with Paul Cockell with the Lanigan and District Ambulance

and the LeRoy Fire Department, says the main message that he wanted to get across is how to prevent cold emergencies. Along with talking about how to cover up during the cold months, especially the head, neck, face, hands, and feet, Burton also has a lot of important tips on what not to do to prevent injury. Rubbing frost bitten hands together can cause more damage than good, as well as warming frost bitten extremities up too quickly. Putting extremities in luke warm water or room temperature water allows the body to warm up gradually, says Burton. Warming extremities up just to go outside again can also cause more damage than good, says Burton. It is better to stay inside and let them warm up fully. Driving is a major concern for newcomers, says Natlazo, especially when it comes to what to do if they get stuck or hit the ditch. That is their biggest fear, says Natlazo, even with the in class sessions they have through SGI before becoming licensed Saskatchewan drivers. Brenda Shrader with SGI was there to talk about safe roads, safe cars, and being a safe driver. “A lot of the foreigners don’t understand how to travel through the snow

and how fast the weather can change in this province. If they know what to plan ahead for and what they need to do when it happens, it’ll probably help them a lot.” Even with travel advisories up, people still think they could make it to something that could be rescheduled, says Shrader. For those times that an emergency does happen, Shrader showed off her own emergency kit. If something did happen, she could survive in her car for a couple of days, says Shrader, with food, blankets, clothing, a shovel and flashlight and anything else that might be needed. Another tip that Shrader had was to make sure someone knows where the driver is going. That way someone could phone for help if the driver does not arrive. Cell phones are no replacement for an emergency kit, especially driving on

Saskatchewan highways where there are dead spots. Keeping the cell phone close to the driver is also important in case the driver is in an accident. The phone could go flying so keeping the phone in a pocket will make sure that the phone is reachable, says Shrader. However, that does not mean the phone should be distracting as well. ““Driving takes a lot of skill and a lot of focus, you have to be one thing at a time...(cell phones) takes away from what the person should be doing, which is driving.” The program is geared towards newcomers, says Natlazo, but anyone can attend as a refresher for winter safety. “Sometimes people from here don’t always know as well what to do. I’ve heard a few people saying the stuff they learned from is stuff they’ve never heard before.”

Sports on TV: A veritable feast for a fan By Bruce Penton Sports Columnist

Back in the good ol’ days, it used to be so simple for a TV-viewing sports fan (In hindsight, those days weren’t so good after all.) There was Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday night, featuring either the Montreal Canadiens from the Forum, with Danny Gallivant calling the play, or the hometown Toronto Maple Leafs from Maple Leaf Gardens, with either Foster Hewitt or his son Bill Hewitt doing play-by-play. But that was it for the week. One, single solitary televised hockey game. Earlier on that Saturday, if we were lucky and the channels lined up, a baseball fan might have been able to see NBC’s Game of the Week, usually from Yankee Stadium. On Sundays, one National Football League game was available for viewing and because most households had only one TV — yes, kids, really, only

one! — you might have had to negotiate with a sister or a parent to get to watch that game. Golf tournament coverage was rare: Perhaps the back nine of the Masters on Saturdays and Sundays, but no more. Today, in our millionchannel universe, a sports fan is spoiled rotten. For instance, on a recent Thursday night, my thumb developed a callus from clicking the remote control from Game 5 of the National League Championship Series between the Cubs and Dodgers; Thursday night football between the Packers and Bears; the Habs vs. Arizona on one of the Sportsnet channels, Carolina vs. the Flames on another one; and Connor McDavid’s Oilers vs. St. Louis on yet another one. Then, during commercial breaks, an occasional foray to the Golf Channel, where the CIMB Classic in Kuala Lumpur, a regulation PGA Tour event, was being

shown during prime time Canada. That was a single Thursday night. On a Saturday and Sunday, it gets even more frantic for a viewer. There will be three or more NHL games each day, a full schedule of college football from the U.S. and Canada, more NFL games than one set of eyes can follow, golf tournaments from four tours and, if it’s baseball season, three or four different games. Then, in season, there is end-to-end curling coverage, tennis, English and North American soccer. It’s never-ending. If you can’t find a game you want, you’re not really trying, with cable and satellite TV, and internet streaming services offering a full smorgasbord of sports. My reaction? Burp! And please pass the remote. • Brad Rock of Salt Lake City’s Deseret News, on BYU’s football team being seven com-

bined points from boasting a 7-0 record and Utah is a yard shy of being 7-0: “And (I’m) just one song away from a Grammy.” • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “American workers leave $272 billion worth of accumulated vacation time on the table, according to a study by Project Time Off. ‘Hey, don’t go looking at us,’ said the Chicago Cubs. ‘We usually take Octobers off.’” • Scott Feschuk of Macleans’ Magazine, on Twitter, on the day the Jays were eliminated and the final Trump-Clinton debate took place: “Jays fans: Let’s resolve not to accept the results of today’s game. #Rigged #MakeBaseballGreatAgain.” • Headline at SportsPickle.com: “Retired David Ortiz says he’s looking forward to not having to stand up four times a day to bat.” • Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “There have been

He was just lucky enough to pitch on days when the other team wasn’t hitting very well.” • Another one f ro m D w i g h t P e r r y : “Hear about the guy who woke up in a cold sweat while dreaming he’d just gotten tickets to a possible showdown for the ages between Cleveland and Chicago?

Despite the lows, the world needs trade

Calvin Daniels Trade deals are at the heart of commerce these days. Countries around the world are looking to forge agreements as a way to smooth the traffic of goods. It is no longer sufficient to go out looking for a product, finding a good deal and buying it on the international market. Today the deal has to fall

under a trade deal that assures market access, access usually tied to some level of reciprocal trade access. These trade deals are of course not without issues of their own. The ink is barely dry on many and their voices of dissent, and usually court cases arise leaving lawyers and judges to put the final details on the wording of the actual trade deal wording. So the trade deals have their inherent flaws, but they are still generally an asset, which is why Canada continues to negotiate toward ever larger trade groups. But getting deals done are never easy, most ultimately ending up watered down on some level in the game of give-and-

take that is negotiation. Most recently Canada has been working toward a Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) with the European Union. But the deal is one showing just how fragile such negotiations are, whether they would be good for the vast majority, or not. Canada’s trade minister walked out of talks in Belgium recently citing EU was incapable of inking a planned transatlantic free trade deal. It’s a strange situation to be sure, since all 28 EU governments support the CETA. However tiny Belgium cannot give assent without backing from its five sub-federal administrations, and French-

speaking Wallonia has steadfastly opposed it. The deal would be a landmark, the first between the EU and a G7 country. It is also an agreement that has proponents predicting an increase in trade between the partners of 20 per cent, more than $10 billion a year in Canada. It is those sorts of numbers which make CETA a coveted agreement. Canada is already the EU’s 12th-largest trading partner. But back to the fly in the ointment in terms of inking a deal. Wallonia is home to about 3.5 million people, less than one per cent of the 507 million Europeans CETA would affect, but the deal rests on the

will of its government. So again we see just how fragile a deal can be. That is especially the case for deals with encompass ever larger country groups. It takes only one to put the skids on things. We have certainly seen scale of deal be an issue in the past with the World Trade Organization talks always being prolonged affairs as countries wrangle to get just a bit better deal for their people. And there is more to this trip-up than the deal between the EU and Canada. The process which can be tripped up by such a small protest vote does not send a positive message in terms of future trade deal negotiations. The EU, as an example, would like to see CETA

duplicated with deals duplicated with the United States or Japan and potentially opening up talks with partners such as Australia and New Zealand. But with an obvious stumbling block the desire to undertake the rigours of negotiating cannot be high. And there is the British element too. Britain holds out hopes of forming a new trading relationship with the EU 27 after it has exited the bloc. But the CETA experience has to sour that vision. Certainly the freer agricultural products can move generally the better for Canadian producers, although there remains some solid reasons for protecting key sectors, but that is why deals are negotiated.

Why we need more women in politics By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor I am happy to see so many councillors running for the election this time around. Eleven candidates for council and three for mayor is nothing to sneeze at. However, I am discouraged by the fact that there are only two women among a 14 person race. Same thing goes for the Rural Municipality election with only four men running and no women councillors. This is not just an issue in Humboldt but worldwide. According to the UN Women, only “22.8 per cent of all national parliamentarians were women as of June 2016.� Rwanda has the largest representation of women in parliament with 63.8 per cent, Bolivia is next with 53.1, and then there are plenty of countries with around 30 per cent, including 14 in Sub-Saharan Africa and 11 in Latin America. If I were to ask you the countries you would expect to have close to 50/50 representation, I know with me African countries would not be the first ones that I would think of. Another interesting fact about these numbers is, “out of those 46 countries,

40 had applied some form of quotas.� Discussing this with Christopher Lee, he took a very interesting take of this; “which is more impressive, the 40 countries who applied the quotas and got higher precentages or the six countries who didn’t and still had higher percentages?� I do not think that extending quotas is a bad thing if it is done right. Quotas just offer more of a chance to look for women who would be suitable for the job. However, they do have to be suitable. Talking about affirmative action with a friend he said that he did not want his 130 lb whisp of a wife hauling 300 lb men out of a burning building because the fire department needed to fill a quota of women. That is not the case we are trying to accomplish with affirmative action plans. The person being hired has to be capable of doing the job. What is impressive about the six countries without this kind of affirmative action is that the women stepped forward to do the job, successfully acquired the job, and a quota was not necessary. My question becomes how do we get this everywhere?

Why are women either afraid to go into politics or not interested in running for some kind of office? Again, discussing this with Christopher Lee, he cited such women currently in politics such as Kathleen Wynne, and stated I had to talk about the bad as well as the good women in politics. This is not the point that I am trying to make. I am not here to rate women in politics as good or bad or compare the quality of women in politics to their male counterparts. Everyone will have a different opinion on who is or who is not a good politician. The fact is we need women in politics. We need young people in politics. We need people of different religions in politics. We need people of different ethnicities in politics. We need as many different voices as possible in politics. The fact that women and men are split 50/50 in any population count means that women is one large group that is under represented. Look at the history of political representation in Canada. Women were allowed to become

candidates in 1921 with five women running in the federal election during a time when most women did not have the right to vote. Between 1921-1945, only five women were even elected to the House of Commons. Speaking of Kathleen Wynne, she is only the 9th female premier of a province, with New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba not even electing a female premier yet and the first one being voted in, in 1991 in British Columbia. The first aboriginal man was voted into the House of Commons in 1968 with the first aboriginal women voted in, in 1988. African Canadians did not have representation in the House of Commons until 1968. So where did that leave us? I hate to say it but that left us with one dominate voice, that of white men who had the money to run for office. Variety is the spice of life and diversity is the heart of the Canadian identity. Our political representation needs to reflect that or we leave a significant part of the population out of the conversation.

You want to play, you have to pay By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Recently in the news we heard about a Montreal-area minor hockey coach who has been suspended for the remainder of the season for ordering his players to do pushups following a 7-2 loss on Sept. 18. Louis Isabella, coach of the Lac St-Louis Peewee AAA Lions, ordered his players to do somewhere between 50 and 100 pushups following the loss, resulting in his suspension, which runs until May 2017. Reportedly the Lac St-Louis hockey organization is not against the use of pushups as a training tool they are against using it as a form of punishment, which was the grounds for his suspension. Personally I feel this is extremely unfortunate for the coach and it reflects poorly on the organization. While I understand their stance against using pushups as a form of punishment the thing they are forgetting is this is not a house league team featuring players who are looking to play hockey for fun, we are talking about a group of AAA hockey players, which is an extremely competitive level of hockey and happens to be the highest level of hockey these players can play. If these kids are playing AAA hockey they take the sport very seriously and are looking to grow as players. Some people may argue that these players may have given their best effort and were just beaten by a better team, which is a fair argument, but again these kids are serious about the game, if they did not want to be pushed as players they should play in a house hockey league where they can play the game to have fun. In the January 27 edition of the Humboldt Journal I wrote an article entitled, “We’re failing kids by telling them they can’t fail,� in which I explained how we are creating the entitlement issues kids have today because we are treating them like pieces of delicate china. This is a perfect example of that. Like I have said, AAA hockey is for the elite players and is for players who are serious about both the game and getting better.

I have no issues with using pushups as a form of reinforcement. Think about it for a minute, he did not physically harm the players he simply asked them to do pushups and it is not like he asked them to do 500-1000 pushups, it was 50-100. Doing pushups is allowed as a training tool but it is forbidden as a way of punishment, but does that “punishment tool� not also fall into the training category? I was recently discussing this with a fellow co-worker who mentioned that they were forced to do pushups when they went offside or were flagged with a procedure penalty in football. Enforcing the idea that what they are doing is wrong and trying to correct it is what I consider a very fair form of punishment should be allowed. Besides, do you not think that by having to do pushups after losing, quite convincingly I might add, will not make those players hate losing? It goes back to my previous editorial, by giving these kids the requirement of doing pushups

following the loss we are telling them that losing 7-2 is not acceptable, especially at the AAA level, and we are pushing them to want to do better. I will be the first to admit, if I was one of those kids and I just finished losing 7-2 and was asked to do pushups I would not be very happy, although I would also not be very happy to have lost 7-2. But those pushups would also make me hate losing even more than I already do and it would push me to make sure that I did everything in my power to make sure that it did not happen again. We are getting really soft in society today. This story makes me want to yell, ‘this is AAA hockey, what do you expect?’ It is time we stop treating our children like precious china, if they want to be competitive they should expect to be pushed, that comes with the territory.

Seven local teams qualify for soccer provincials

The Middle Lake Avengers boys soccer team captured the 1A Boys Region C Regional Soccer Championship in Muenster on Oct. 22. With the win the boys claimed a berth in the Provincial Championship, which they will host Oct. 2829.

In Muenster, the Middle Lake Avengers captured the 1A Boys Region C Regional Championship after running roughshod over the competition, winning their two games by a combined 16-0 score. The Avengers kicked off the tournament with a tremendous offensive display as they piled up ten goals, to blow by the LeRoy Lightning 10-0. With the win the Avengers moved into the final where they faced the hometown Muenster Cougars, who entered advanced to the final thanks to a thrilling 3-2 comefrom-behind victory over Osler VCA. In the final the Avengers high-powered

offense continued their string of solid play as they scored six more goals to blast the Cougars 6-0. Both teams still earned a spot at the provincial championships despite the loss from Muenster, which run Oct. 28-29 in Middle Lake. In Humboldt at the 2A Boys Region C Regional Championship, the Lake Lenore Lancers used a stingy defense to limit the Warman Wolverines to just a single goal to advance to the final with a 2-1 win. The Lancers were joined in the final by the Yorkton Sacred Heart Saints who dominated the HCI Mohawks 7-1 en route to the final. The Saints continued their string of domination in the final they just consistently broke down the Lancers defense piling up another seven goals, this time beating the Lancers 7-0. Despite the loss, the Lancers still quali-

fied for the 2A Boys Provincial Championship, which takes place Oct. 28-29 in Prince Albert and are hosted by Se Se Wa Hum School. In Lake Lenore, the 1A Region C Girls Regional Championship was captured by the hometown Lancers who used a powerful offense to cruise to victory as they outscored their opposition 11-2 in a pair of victories. The Lancers kicked off the tournament with a dominating 6-1 win over the Aberdeen Crusaders to qualify for the regional final. The Lancers were joined in the final by their 777 grid rivals the Middle Lake Avengers who won a nail biter over the Warman Wolverines 3-2. The Lancers offense continued to roll in the final as they took a 2-1 lead into halftime and cruised from there scoring three more goals for an easy 5-1 win. With the win the Lancers move on the

1A Girls Provincial Championship, which runs Oct. 28-29 in North Battleford, where they will be joined by the Avengers. In Caronport, the Muenster Cougars moved on to the provincial championship thanks to a second place finish at the 1A Girls Region D Regional Championship. The Cougars kicked off the tournament with a dominating display in the semi-final as they blew out the Moosomin Marquis 6-0. In the final the Cougars met the HCI Mohawks who came into the final fresh off an 8-0 victory over the hosts from Caronport. The final was a hard fought battle between two evenly matched teams as they finished regulation tied at one. After overtime solved nothing the two teams went to the shootout where the Mohawks emerged with a 2-1 victory. The two teams next move on to the provincial championship, which runs Oct. 28-29 in North Battleford.

Zimmerman joins Team Sask for U16 Challenge Cup By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter It has been a great summer for Englefeld native, Cael Zimmerman, and it just keeps getting better. Zimmerman was one of 12 forwards selected to represent Team Saskatchewan at the 2016 Western Canada U16 Challenge Cup in Calgary Oct. 19-23. The U16 Challenge Cup pits the best hockey players from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia in a province versus province competition. Playing in a tournament of this magnitude was really exciting, says Zimmerman. “It’s a great honour to be able to represent Saskatchewan at this tournament and there’s so many elite players playing here. To play among them, it’s a great honour.” Zimmerman was a perfect fit for this team, says Joel Houseman, Saskatchewan Hockey Association Senior Coordinator of Hockey Development High Performance. “We kind of saw him as a physical guy, an energy guy that could go out play against some top players and shut them down.” As is the case with many teams who play under the Hockey Canada umbrella, Houseman says Zimmerman’s role on the team was altered slightly from what he may have been used to with his club team, the Prince Albert Midget AAA Mintos, but said that his versatility and willingness to adjust his role make it that much easier of a selection. “You need guys like him to accept the role and be

versatile and do what’s best for the team.” Zimmerman saw the tournament as an excellent opportunity to pick up various things from both opponents

and teammates alike during the tournament but said it was important to for him to play the role he was given. “The coach will put you in a different position and you’ve just got to play it so everyone’s got to come together.” Zimmerman, a second round selection of the Calgary Hitmen in the 2016 Western Hockey League bantam draft, enjoyed a quiet tournament as he finished with no points in four games but he also finished the tournament with an even plus minus, meaning he was a solid defensive forward. Team Saskatchewan finished the tournament in fourth place but put forth a great effort as a team. They dropped a devastating 4-3 decision to Team Alberta on the opening night of the competition as they gave up the game-winning goal with two seconds left in third period, they blew a 2-0 and 3-2 lead to British Columbia, losing 5-3, before mounting a late third period comeback against Manitoba to get into the semi-final with a 3-2 overtime win. The semi-final did not go Team Saskatchewan’s way however as they gave up the winning goal with less than three minutes to play in the third period to fall 2-1. In the bronze medal game Saskatchewan ran out of steam as they fell 4-1 to Team Manitoba. Zimmerman was joined on Team Saskatchewan by Humboldt native and current Mintos teammate, Logan Barlage, as well as Davidson native, Blake Allen, who played with Zimmerman on last season’s Humboldt Bantam AA Broncos team.

Speeding towards winter 2017 SaskTel Tankard to be held in Tisdale Devan C. Tasa

editor@tisdalerecorder.ca

Sixteen of Saskatchewan’s top men’s curling teams will meet in Tisdale early next year. Only one will move on to the Brier in Halifax. The Tisdale Curling Club will host the 2017 SaskTel Tankard Men’s Curling Championship from Feb. 1 to 5, 2017 at the RECplex arena. “They selected Tisdale because of how well we did hosting the ladies provincials [in 2014],” said Matt Wallington, the chair of the tankard’s organizing committee. “The reason why that was successful was because this area – Tisdale and northeast Saskatchewan – will support an event like this like nowhere else in the province.” Wallington said the arena was full and the competitors loved the 2013 event. “It was a very professional, well-run competition and because of that, CurlSask has asked us to host another event and the men’s provincial is what we chose to hold,” he said. The chair said the tankard was an important event for the entire region. “It’s a community event and we want to get the whole community involved – not only Tisdale but all of northeast Saskatchewan,” he said. “An event of this magnitude is something we want to share and participate with as many people across the Northeast as we can.” To pull off the tankard, there’s a need for many volunteers to perform tasks ranging from set-up, take-down, ticket sales to security. Those interested can contact volunteer co-ordinator Charlotte Owens at 306-873-3039 or the curling club at 306-873-4747. The tankard will also promote youth interested in the sport. “At each draw, a pre-selected junior star will be introduced with a team and on-ice level while their host team warms up,” Wallington said. “There will also be a junior stars mini-exhibition game on the weekend during the playoffs.” Wallington said the organizers believe there’s a social aspect to the event. “The goal of the organizing committee is to provide a great atmosphere to watch the best curlers in the province compete for a chance to represent Saskatchewan in Halifax at the Brier. We want the social aspect of the event to be an exciting venue for everyone, regardless if they are a curling fan or not.”

Tisdale will host the 2017 SaskTel Tankard Men’s Curling Championship from Feb. 1 to 5, 2017.

Part of that social aspect is the beer gardens – the Redhead-Chupa Patch – in the auditorium Feb. 3 and 4. There will be a live feed on a large screen for the feature game, as well as two live bands playing after the game. The Patch is a joint effort with the Tisdale Minor Hockey Association, with the association providing volunteers. “For those five days, they’re displaced from the rink because the curling is going on in there and so we wanted to share something with them,” Wallington said. Of the 16 teams, 10 will be selected from the

Lintlaw Service

Saskatchewan Curling Tour, while the remainder will be chosen at two provincial qualifiers in the north and south of the province. Team Laycock, featuring Steve Laycock, Kirk Muyres, Colton Flasch and Dallan Muyres, were the winners of last year’s tankard. Wallington said the best thing the community can do is buy tickets for the event. “That’s the biggest thing: is get out there, buy your tickers now for the event so we can move on to making the event the best we possibly can.”

Ten fun activities to chase away the winter blues Becky Zimmer

rzimmer@humboldtjournal.ca

Winter is either hit or miss. Either you love it or you hate it. Sometimes it is just a case of not knowing what is out there. Well look no further than our list of 10 things to do during the winter. This list is in no particular order.

Walking dogs for the SPCA or the local animal shelter

depending on whether the cold adds to the ambience or whether the skater wants a little more warmth when it comes to spending hours and hours on a sheet of ice. Some outdoor rinks do not even have to be made. Just shovel off a frozen slough and it is good to go. More care has to be taken on these, though, since falling through into freezing cold water is not fun.

Any sport for that matter

The SPCA is always looking for volunteers and the winter months is no different. I am sure it is a lot harder in the winter to get all bundled up and go for a walk. To know that some lonely dog is waiting for someone to get off the couch might be the incentive people need to brave the chill and get some exercise.

There are so many winter sports that are a lot of fun to take part in. Check with the local curling rink about league nights. See if they have a rec league where teams are made up of whoever shows up or learn a new sport this winter with broomball or ringette.

Walk some trails

We’re in Canada. We’re Canadians. There are very few towns in Saskatchewan that do not have minor hockey teams, curling clubs, and figure skating competitions or shows. The numbers are down from, say 10-20 years ago, when it comes to the sheer number of minor hockey teams but hockey is far from dead in Saskatchewan. Take one in. Who knows, the future Wayne Gretzky, Hayley Wickenheiser or Sidney Crosby might be on the ice and free to watch. One day people might be paying a couple hundred dollars a game to see them. However, the main reason to go is just to enjoy the show.

Depending on where you are, some trails may not be groomed during the winter. Some may be positioned in such a way the wind “plows” the trail but even when they are not, that does not mean they are not usable for things like snowshoeing. Some trails are even specifically designed for cross-country skiing and clubs are available to help people learn how and rent equipment.

Skating, anywhere We have rinks all over this province that everyone can access. Many indoor rinks have public skating times and for small towns, sometimes it is just a matter of knowing who has the keys and whether you have to pay a fee to use it. Indoor rinks do have their advantages. Sometimes they can be warmer and provide a smoother surface. Sometimes being out in the cold for a couple hour skate can add to the ambience for people who enjoy the outdoor rinks. Outdoor rinks are just as fun

Take in a sport

Fun workshops Small-town museums and libraries always have something going on. Whether it is hot chocolate days and old-fashioned sleigh ride days or a winter craft for the kids on weekends, if they are open during the winter, events bring people in from the cold.

Hockey games – like this Humboldt Broncos game – are a great way to beat winter boredom.

Drop in sports

Going to the lake

Some towns set these up for people with a couple dollars fee to cover the rental costs. Just like going to the small town rinks, sometimes it is just a matter of knowing who to borrow the key from and get some people together for a game of soccer or volleyball.

Just because it is winter does not mean the lake is off-limits. Cabin coziness is just increased with a fire, hot chocolate, and snowfall outside. As long as it is safe, ice fishing and snowmobiling are great out on the lake.

Local festivals

Just like going out to the lake, there is so much to do after a good snowfall. Snowmobiling, making snowpeople and snow forts, having a snowball fight, just get out in the snow and have some fun. Even just people going out and catching snowflakes on their tongues is something that is special only during the winter. Age does not matter. If it is fun, go do it.

Right now, there’s fall bazaars and suppers. Give it two months and it will be poker rallies and winter festivals. Take one in. Not only does it support local recreation clubs or town projects, but poker rally organizers also take into account the walking crowds who are not snowmobiling. Winter festivals always seem to have fun for both the indoor and outdoor crowds.

Just go out and enjoy the snow

No rink? No problem

Humboldt rink maker oýers rink-making tips Becky Zimmer

rzimmer@humboldtjournal.ca

Not everyone wants to drive into town to skate or play hockey. The obvious solution? A backyard rink. Backyard rink kits are now readily available for a couple hundred dollars at hardware stores. However, if people can do without the bells and whistles of a kit, building a rink in their own backyard is fairly simple. Lawrence Dunne with the City of Humboldt builds the outdoor rink on the St. Dominic School grounds in Humboldt every year. He says it is about patience and a mostly level surface. An outdoor rink is not just about turning on the hose and letting it freeze.

Four things you can do in Tisdale this winter Emma Meldrum

is done on the indoor rink. To do this in a backyard rink, there are some examples on YouTube with Tupperware totes, a scraper, and wet towels. For rinks that are being set up over grass, there is the possibility that the rink will do some damage to the lawn. This does not happen every year, but Dunne said there is a good chance the grass will die depending on the type of winter, how cold it is, how packed the snow is, and how often the rink is used. Finding the right location is also important to building a rink. A sunny spot will create melting, so Dunne suggests a shady spot with a north-facing exposure to cut back on the amount of sun. With an outdoor rink, anyone is free to lace up their skates at anytime.

Indoor shooting

Tracks in the snow

Wolf hunting in the Northeast Emma Meldrum

reporter@tisdalerecorder.ca

Humans won’t be the only things making tracks in the snow this season. Wolves will be on the move in November, with hunters and trappers following in their wake. The Ministry of Environment is selling an unlimited number of licenses to hunt wolves “as a method for helping to reduce wolf-livestock confl icts”, according to a media release from Oct. 12. Forest fringe areas in the Northeast will be a part of the hunt area, including the wildlife management zones 43, 48, 49 and 50. For seasoned hunters and trappers like Lawrence Sochaski, wolf hunting is partially a pleasure sport, as that animal’s fur prices are low. “Right now, coyotes are the only fur-bearer that’s really worth targeting,” said Sochaski on Oct. 18. “A lot of the coyote fur is used in the trim trade, for Canada Goose parkas and that.” The Ridgedale-area outdoorsman doesn’t go after wolves too often, harvesting a few each season (compared to the dozens that focused hunters and trappers could bag). Still, he’s aware of their habits and peculiarities. “Trapping or snaring is a lot easier than trying to hunt them. They’re a very elusive animal. Most of their wandering is done at night or very early in the morning or late in the evening. “If you’re going to hunt wolves, basically to see the wolf in the wild, you’re going to have to be on a bait or just be at the right spot at the right time. They’re very secretive animals.” The prime season for the wolf hunt is November, with fur quality starting to lower by mid-January.

Nor has he had any issues with other trappers and hunters. “Usually there’s a trapping code. This is my area, I’ll stay out of your area and you’ll stay out of mine. Most trappers are pretty good that way, especially in the farmland.” Ryan Demchynski, media relations co-ordinator for the Saskatchewan Trappers Association, said some of the trappers he’s spoken to haven’t been so lucky.

all the other animals.” The Regina-based trapper said that the ideal situation would see a better price on wolf fur, which would see more habitual trappers targeting the animal. “They have a nine-to-five job. They have families and they can’t be on that trap line as much as they’d like to and harvest as many animals as necessary, just for the plain and simple economics of it.”

Where the tension lies Sochaski hasn’t had any close calls with wolves – “usually the part of the wolf you’re seeing is the back end of it, it’s leaving fast.”

“Most of the people who go on these wolf hunts don’t understand that these are registered trap lines,” said Demchynski. “The trap lines are active at the time and a lot of the wolves are right on the trails, so the general public will go flying down with their snow machines, their quads. They’re actually breaking traps, they’re not noticing that there are snares out there, they’re hitting snares, they’re just disturbing

St. Brieux holds first ball for fire department By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

It was something new for the Town of St. Brieux and it was a great success. In total, the first annual Fireman’s Ball on Oct. 22 raised $11,785 with $6001 coming from the ball and another $5784 being donated from Affinity Credit Union. This money is going towards new personal protective equipment for the 21 member crew, says Fire Chief, Lee Brockman. The equipment has been in need of repair for the last few years so the department is looking to replace helmets and coveralls. The ball was something new that the department could bring to St. Brieux. “We’ve already got your poker rallies and all that kind of stuff for fundraisers, so we’re thinking might as well try something different and see how well it goes over.� And the community was behind the event with Brockman saying they were just a few tickets shy of selling out the gala. This was also a way to honour members of the St. Brieux Fire Department with 10 and 20 year service awards being given out. “In the past, only when someone retires would they get an award but with the amount of time that goes into things we’d thought we’d show our appreciation while they’re still on the department and when they retire as well.� The St. Brieux Fire Department covers the town as well as parts of the RMs of Lake Lenore, Three Lakes, and Flat Springs. This past year the department has answered around 30 calls for structural and field fires, car accidents, and medical assistance. Ten Year Service Awards: Auctions

Plunkett news By Deloris Sutherland Correspondent Hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends. Plunkett Friendship Group and Birthday Group had a farewell get together at the Plunkett Hotel for Anna-Mae Ryanne of Viscount who is already gone to Nunoose Bay on Vancouver Island and has sold her house in Viscount and has purchased a trailer retirement home where there is no winter. We all wish her well on her move and we will miss her. She was a great Scrabble player and she also loved to play Hand and Foot Canasta. We have had several games with her. I hope that she finds some Canasta players on the Island. Plunkett folks send their deepest sympathy to the Gusikoski family of Viscount on the recent passing of Tony. His brother Ed is our hotel manager here in Plunkett. The Plunkett Birthday Group of Ladies held a birthday party for Lyla Muench on Oct. 18. A game of knowledge was played and enjoyed. Following this lovely basket of little household gifts were presented to Lyla and opened up and passed around. Then a birthday cake was enjoyed followed by a lovely luncheon with tea and coffee. And then the ladies had a good visit. On Oct. 22 a Come and Go tea is planned for Hector and Maisie Sutherland to celebrate their 60th Wedding Anniversary at the Watrous Se-

niors Club Building on Main St and everyone is welcome. Our weather has been miserable lately and we missed going to Viscount to their garage sale on Oct. 15. Hope that we get Indian Summer soon. Next week on Oct. 26 is election day in Plunkett at the town office. Don’t forget folks. We were in Watrous and enjoyed a lovely turkey dinner with Ellen Farago and her family at Jubilee Court. It was her 92nd birthday on Oct. 9 and some of my family was also there from Saskatoon. It sure is nice seeing everyone. We received an early taste of Winter and rain. Hope it goes away so we can enjoy a bit of fall weather. Our tree leaves were looking lovely, but are slowly falling down. Dennis and Leona Credgeur were to Hanley for Thanksgiving with their mother Mrs. Laura Rewerts and family members. And her daughter Tracy and family from Banff, Alberta were also down visiting her mother. One morning I saw my husband trying to decide between two boxes of cereal which one he should take. “Maybe you should take a half a bowl of each,� I said jokingly. “Wow,� he said with a smile, “You really think outside of the box.� Get well wishes go out to anyone ill and in the hospital. We wish them well and home again soon. Anyone having any news, please phone me at 306-944-4852. It is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

CNIB wants everyone to be safe at work By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Eye injuries in the work place are the most common form of injury on the job. And the Canadian National Institute for the Blind does not want this to continue. rtnering with WorkSafe Saskatchewan, they presented to Naicam School and the Carlton Trail Regional College on Oct. 18 to educate students on eye protection and preventing injuries. Ashley Nemeth is an advocate and presenter for the CNIB and was on hand to present to the students. Nemeth was born with a form of albinism and went blind due to complications from that. She does not want anyone to need the Canadian National Institute for

the Blind because of a preventable injury. Unfortunately, 100 per cent of eye injuries and 75 per cent of eye loss is preventable with proper safety equipment, says the CNIB, and 7,020 Canadians will require medical attention for an eye injury each year. “We think of hard hats or steal toed boots, but people don’t think about the appropriate safety glasses to what they’re doing. It’s the last thing people think about.� In Saskatchewan, 25,000 residents are blind or partially sighted with someone losing part or all of their vision every 12 minutes in Canada, says Nemeth. Annette Goski with WorkSafe Saskatchewan says the presentations were geared towards students

because they are new to the work force. “If we can educate students first about health and safety before entering the work force or while they’re in the work force, then they know to ask the questions about the hazards that they see out there.� There is some hesitancy to ask the questions, says Goski, but young people should know about their three rights in the work place; the right to know the risks, the right to refuse dangerous work, and the right to participate in health and safety programs. Young people under the age of 25 are a high risk group for injury with 6000 youth injuries happening every year in Saskatchewan. Out of those injuries 10 per cent are eye injuries.

Getting up on dark mornings does not have to be a drag By Dr. Megan Parker, ND Health Columnist I woke up this morning thinking how much I dislike waking up when it is still dark outside. I’m not a morning person on the best day and often have to drag myself out of bed, but waking up to the sun shining in the window usually puts a smile on my face and I bounce out a little more quickly. When I wake up to darkness it is so much more difficult for me to get going for the day. This change in lighting is a natural phenomenon that happens yearly with the change in seasons. I’m definitely not pushing for Saskatchewan to adapt Daylight Savings Time; I lived in Ontario for four years and don’t think it made a difference at all other than confusion. This change in light can have an effect on more than just our mood in the morning. Our sleep and wake cycle is regulated by two different hormones in the body. Those hormones are melatonin and serotonin. As the sun goes down and darkness hits, our body starts producing melatonin which makes our bodies tired and helps us get to sleep and stay asleep throughout the night. When the sun starts to come up and hits receptors in our eyes, our body produces serotonin that wakes us up and makes us feel energized. These receptors at the backs of our eyes are sensitive enough that they can sense these changes in light even with our eyes closed. In an ideal world, we would end our days and go to bed when the sun went down and rise with the sun in the morning. Unfortunately, that routine doesn’t work well in the modern world. Most of us have jobs and commitments we need to get to on time and productivity cannot suffer just because of the change in daylight hours. For many people, their circadian rhythms are very set and rhythmic. Even without the sunlight hitting their eyes, their bodies start producing serotonin at the same time everyday

waking them from their slumber. This is a great adaptation of the body to deal with the changing of the seasons. For those of you who are like me and feel like you need more sleep on darker mornings, there is hope to help counteract the lack of light. Establishing a routine is very important. Going to bed at the same time every night and waking at the same time helps to set a strong rhythmic pattern to your circadian rhythm. Having a strict routine can counteract the lack of light during the winter months, but allow your body to still get a good quality sleep and feel rested in the morning. This also means that you have to get up at the same time on weekends as you do on weekdays so stop hitting that snooze bar and get your day started. Exercise is a great way to increase your body’s secretion of serotonin. Serotonin is the feel-good hormone that makes us feel happy and awake. Moving your body in the morning can make you feel more refreshed, awake and ready to take on the day. Exercising anytime during the day can also help to balance your circadian rhythm and help counteract the morning darkness problem. Vitamin D can also have a huge impact on our energy, mood and wiliness to get out of bed on a dark morning. Vitamin D is the sunshine vitamin that makes us feel good. It is also a precursor that our body uses to make serotonin and melatonin. Unfortunately, because we live so far north of the equator, we are only able to produce Vitamin D from the sun for two months during the summer and only for a few hours each day. We rely on that Vitamin D production to last us throughout the year and often it isn’t enough,

especially if we are working indoors during the day. During the winter months, it can be helpful to supplement with Vitamin D, but it is best to speak to your doctor to know the right dose for you. Light therapy, also called phototherapy, is a great option. The light therapy mimics natural outdoor lights to help rebalance our internal circadian rhythms. The lights used for phototherapy are over 80 times brighter than normal indoor lighting. I personally have an alarm clock that simulates a sunrise to wake your body up naturally as the natural sunrise would do in the morning. You can also get lamps that you use for a short period in the morning to help boost serotonin and get you going for the day. Circadian rhythms during the winter would be so much simpler if we changed our days to match the change in daylight hours, but unfortunately that wouldn’t work in our society. We have to make a few changes to our routine to adapt to the seasonal change without too many side effects. This article is intended for educational and information purposes only.

Crop Report for the Period October 11 to 17, 2016 Wet and cool weather continues to delay harvest. Frequent rain and snow, along with cool temperatures have stalled harvest for almost three weeks. Eighty-one per cent of the 2016 crop is combined and 15 per cent is swathed or ready to straight-cut, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report. The five year (2011-2015) average for this time of year is 97 per cent combined. The southeast has 90 per cent of the harvest in the bin. Eighty-five per cent of the crop is combined in the southwest, 79 per cent in the east-central region, 73 per cent in the west-central region, 78 per cent is combined in the northwest and 80 per cent is combined in the northeast. There were a few reports in the southeast of cano-

la and flax being combined over the weekend. Over the past month, harvest progress has been minimal due to wet conditions. Most areas received rain this past week, with areas in the northeast and northwest reporting snow as well. The Moosomin and Moose Jaw areas reported 15 mm of precipitation, Vanguard 18 mm, Yorkton 35 mm, Outlook 22 mm and Lake Lenore 25 mm. The Meadow Lake area received 35 cm of snow during the past week. Provincially, cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 57 per cent surplus and 43 per cent adequate. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 30 per cent surplus and 70 per cent adequate. Field conditions are very wet, and some producers are indicating that the ground will have to

freeze before combines will be able to get back into the field. There are predictions that some crop will be left out over the winter. Rain and snow have lodged standing crops. Bleaching and sprouting are causing grade loss. A complete, printable version of Crop Report is available online at http://www.publications. gov.sk.ca/redirect.cfm?p=82830&i=95209.

Regular season wraps up for high school football teams By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter The Saskatchewan High School Athletic Association football schedule wrapped up last week as teams set their sights on either preparing for the playoffs or finishing the regular season on a high note. 1A 6-man Conference 1 The Viscount Vikings had a busy week of football as they played twice in a five day stretch starting with their Oct. 20 match up in Aberdeen against the Crusaders. The Vikings offense continued flexing their muscle in the game as they blitzed the Crusaders 54-12. The Vikings wrapped up their regular season on Oct. 24 when

they played host to the Lanigan Lazers. The Vikings offense continued playing solid football as they scored 78 points en route to a 7818 win. The Lazers meanwhile, played their penultimate game on the road in Porcupine Plain where they took on the Bears. The Lazers struggled defensively once again as they gave up at least 42 points for the fourth straight game as they fell to the Bears 42-14. With the pair of wins the Vikings finish the regular season with a 5-2 record, good enough for a tie for second in the conference, but due to a loss to the Hudson Bay Riders the

Vikings lost the tiebreaker and were eliminated from playoff contention. The Lazers meanwhile, finished the regular season with a 1-5-1 record, good enough for fifth in the conference, but they too were eliminated from playoff contention. 2A 6-man Conference 4 The Birch Hills Marauders wrapped up their regular season on Oct. 17 when they traveled to Big River to take on the Rebels. The Marauders high-powered offense continued clicking right along as they blew out the Rebels 63-18. With the win the Marauders improved their record to 4-1 on the season, good enough for a second place finish in the conference but due to having an enrollment number higher than 86 students as of Oct. 1 the Marauders are ineligible for the playoffs they saw their season come to an end.

The Wakaw Huskies meanwhile played a pair of contests as they first traveled to Rosthern to take on the undefeated Huskies. The two teams engaged in a shoot out as they piled up a combined 91 points but it was the Huskies who landed the final blow as they escaped with a 49-42 win. The Warriors wrapped up their regular season on Oct. 20 when they hosted the Shellbrook Aardvarks. Needing a win to move into the playoff round of the football season the Warriors came out flying against the Aardvarks with their offense firing on all cylinders as they piled up 57 points en route to a 57-16 win. With the win the Warriors move on to the provincial playoff quarterfinals where they will travel to Hanley on Oct. 29 to take on the Sabers.
