Nutrien chooses response team for mine competition By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

Emergency Response Te a m s f ro m N u t r i e n Lanigan spent April 26 in heated competition at their Emergency Response competition. Four teams of six competed in six events, including a written exam, first aid, fire fighting, and a mine problem. The winner of the competition will represent Nutrien Lanigan at the 50th Annual Emergency Response Mine Rescue Skills in Moose Jaw on June 2. By the time all the marks were tallied up, Mark Nivon’s Blue Team would take home the win and will represent Nutrien Lanigan. The rescue teams have been training all year to prepare for the competition, says General Manager at Nutrien Lanigan Rob Jackson, not only working their regular jobs at Nutrien Lanigan, but Members of Team Red work in the heavy wind to extinguish three simulated fires as judge Rod Grere looks on during the fire also training on fire fight- fighting section of the Nutrien Lanigan Emergency Response Competition on April 26.

Guide lines available for municipal cannabis legislation By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

The Federation of Canadian Municipalities had their work cut out for them in developing the Municipal Guide to Cannabis Legalization. But they were not alone with many Canadian provincial and territorial associations on board to aid development, including the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA) and Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM) as well counterparts from all other provinces. The guidelines were released on April 16 and will help municipal governments going forward as they work to incorporate cannabis legislation into their own bylaws. Gordon Barnhart, President of Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association, says this is an eventuality that municipalities are going to have to deal with. “We are going to have municipalities across this province that are going to have deal with this. It’s not an issue of should it happen or not because it’s going to happen.� The local levels of government are going to be on the front lines of marijuana regulation, says Federation of Canadian Municipalities President and Deputy Mayor of Winnipeg, Jenny Gerbasi. “We’re the ones where it’s going to be sold and used on the ground. Municipalities want to ensure that, as legislation comes in, Canadians are safe and well served throughout the process.� Cannabis legalization is going to impact 17 different municipal departments, says Gerbasi, everything from business licensing and land use management to justice and healthcare. “We may be preparing new bylaws on certain things. That’s why we’ve been preparing for this for quite sometime,� she says. Five cities in Saskatchewan have their own police force while the rest rely on contracts with the Saskatchewan RCMP, says Barnhart. Those relationships are going to be taken into account when it comes to how to regulate policing within Saskatchewan municipalities.

“It’s going to be an additional charge to the police forces involved. Saskatoon City Police came out... saying they just don’t know what the costs are going to be.� The province has told municipalities that they will talk sharing the costs, when they have a better idea of what the costs should be, says Barnhart. “We’re asking municipalities to keep track of their increased costs because in the end there will be a tallying up with the province.� This engagement with the provinces is the key part of this, says Gerbasi, since proper regulation will only be effective with those important partnerships. While 51 retail outlets will also be developed across the province, each municipality will require their own

Blue Jays’ fans ecstatic over great start

By Bruce Penton Sports Columnist

There have been a handful of great stories in the first couple of weeks of the 2018 Major League Baseball season, but for Canadians, one of the best has to be the great start by the Toronto Blue Jays. The Jays don’t have a Shohei Ohtani historically pitching and hitting; they don’t have a slugger with the booming bat and polarizing persona of Bryce Harper; they aren’t a true ‘surprise’ like the Mets and Angels, two teams who haven’t made the playoffs for ages but were playing close to .800 baseball in the first three weeks, nor are they playing

near-perfect ball, as the Red Sox did by winning 17 of their first 19 games (thanks to an MVP-like start by Mookie Betts). But Canadian baseball fans have the Jays to cheer for this April, something they had a hard time doing last year when Canada’s only MLB club got off to a horrendous start (2-11) — the hole being so deep they were basically eliminated from post-season contention before much of the snow was gone from Prairie ditches. But hope springs eternal and this spring there is definitely hope. How eternal it will be remains to be seen, but when the Blue Jays rattled off 13 wins in their first 19 games, their .684 winning percentage was second-best in the American League. That’s playoff country, baby! These aren’t the bombsaway days of yore, when Bautista, Encarnacion and Donaldson were belting homers all over North America. These Jays have one of the best pitching staffs in the league, with J.A. Happy, Aaron Sanchez, Marco Estrada, Jaime Garcia and Marcus Stroman giving the team a chance to win most days.

Mid-April stats showed the Blue Jays to be fourth among all MLB teams in home runs, with first-year Jays Aledmys Díaz and Yangervis Solarte setting the pace with four each. It seems manager John Gibbons has a new hero every day — guys like Justin Smoak, with12 RBI in 19 games; and backup catcher Luke Maile batting. 476 in his first six games. As a group, the Jays’ five starters match up with any team’s, and the future is solid. Toronto has two exciting youngsters — sluggers Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero, Jr., — who may or may not jump to the big club this year. Both young stars are offspring of former big leaguers and are regarded as two of the brightest future stars in the game. So while 2017 was one to forget for the Blue Jays, 2018 looks promising. And the next few years look even better. • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “If 5½-foot Astros star Jose Altuve ever needs to do some injury rehab in the minors, we’ve found the perfect team to do it with: the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp.” • Norman Chad of the Washington Post, with two of a number of baseball’s

‘unwritten rules’: “Don’t be late to a road game when you are the leadoff hitter”; and “Don’t wear a batting glove to brunch.” • Bob Molinaro of pilotonline.com (Hampton, Va.) “The mind boggles at the thought of 71-year-old Kareem AbdulJabbar on ‘Dancing with the Stars.’ But with Tonya Harding also on the show, Kareem better watch out for his shins.” • Reader Mike Parris, to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, on Harding and Abdul-Jabbar cracking this year’s “Dancing with the Stars” lineup: “This is the worst threat to Kareem’s knees since Bill Laimbeer.” • Molinaro again: “Although 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster was charged with battery against a woman, forcefully attempting to stop the victim from reporting the assault and possession of an assault rifle, the Niners have decided for now not to cut him. After all, it’s not like he took a knee during the national anthem.” • Randy Turner of the Winnipeg Free Press, on Twitter: “Over 15,000 will be at NHLJets game. Up to 15,000 at street party. This could be the most Winnipeggers to rally

around one event that didn’t involve sandbags.” • Comedy writer Jim Barach: “Rob Gronkowski has bought a stake in his namesake, Derby horse “Gronk.” Using that criteria, Tom Brady could buy into the back half of any horse.” • Dwight Perry again: “Because of a scheduling logjam, the telecast of Game 4 of the Devils-Lightning playoff series got moved to the Golf Channel. Disoriented broadcasters never did figure out whether Nikita Kucherov’s hockey stick was a sand wedge or a 9-iron.” • Jim Barach again, after a woman declined to sing the national anthem at a Reno Aces minor-league baseball game because she couldn’t bring her gun: “Apparently they got her name off the wrong list of sopranos.” • Nancy Armour of USA Today, on 24 MLB games postponed in the season’s first 19 days: “Baseball isn’t meant to be played in balaclavas and parkas, and the only time fans should need a blanket at the ballpark is when there’s a movie night under the stars.” Care to comment?

Farmers need to adapt as changes in weather impact crops

Calvin Daniels If one thing is clear looking toward the future, how farmers farm is going to change as we move forward. That may sound like a statement of the obvious since more things we do

evolve over time, and farming is no different. Through the years since farming started on the Canadian Prairies we have moved from the horse to machinery that exceeds that in the earliest manned space rockets. We h a v e e v o l v e d from a largely cereal grain cropping base to one that today is much more diverse. Cultivation has given way to reduced and zero tillage systems to preserve moisture and reduce erosion. Farm size has exploded from 160-acre home-

steads to operations covering thousands of acres. The list could go on, but it suffices to illustrate the rather dramatic changes. However, in almost every case the changes have occurred because farmers have adapted new technologies with an eye to greater efficiencies, and greater yields, two complimentary aspects of a farm being profitable. The changes that seem on the near horizon may be made for decidedly different reasons. We are quite obviously in a time of sig-

nificant climate change. That does not mean global warming, although there are certainly indications that it is occurring. But, we are most certainly seeing more dramatic swings in weather, whether that is rainstorms, tornadoes, or extended winters. When it comes to farming weather is still the most critical aspect of production. Without timely rains, crops suffer. A late frost in the spring or an early one in the fall, and crops suffer. Too much extreme heat and crops suffer. Any change to weath-

er that adds to the likelihood of extreme weather may well impact crop production. There are all sorts of stories out these days about what is happening in terms of weather, starting most often with increased greenhouse gases leading to polar ice melts which in turn are causing weather pattern shifts. To fully understand the science of it all one would need more letters of science behind their name than this humble scribe, but I can recognize what farmers grow, where they grow it, and

even how they do it, are likely to change in the years ahead. Some see the change as a move to more fallseeded crops as a way to alleviate the uncertainty of potentially longer and more severe winters. Others see potential for crops which require more heat, such as corn, in new areas as summers warm. Whatever the exact answers prove to be, farmers are going to have to be adaptive to farming changes based on a new ‘norm’ in terms of weather, as that new ‘norm’ itself evolves.

Teachers and students need to be focus of education funding By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

Saskatchewanians do care about education. In a recent survey released by the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation (STF), education was rated at 4.44 out of a possible 5 in importance to quality of life by Saskatchewan residents, second only to healthcare, with 4.63/5. Two-thirds of respondents gave education the highest ranking possible, meaning that above all other possible responses, the people of Saskatchewan believed that education is the most important factor in quality of life in our province. If I had taken the survey, education would be high on my list as well. The Saskatchewan budget release on April 10 included $30 million for education funding. This follows Premier Scott Moe’s announcement of an additional $7.5 million back in February. This is great to see from the Saskatchewan government as they start to put investments back into education, says Patrick Maze, president of the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation. But there is still more to be done, he says. What will be done for the future of education funding is still unclear. Education funding is still $54 million short of last year’s levels, after cuts that came in the last budget.

How are schools going to function without those extra funds? Education Minister Gord Wyant is quoted in a recent StarPheonix article saying that increases to education spending must happen within “the context of a balanced budget.” How does that parse with the promise to add more funds? Does it mean that education funding will land somewhere in the region it was before the 2017 budget cuts. And what happens when the Saskatchewan Party’s meets it plan of a balanced budget by 2019-2020? A lack of funding could mean increasing problems within Saskatchewan schools. Last year, Saskatchewan has gained 2,500 students and lost 188 teachers, according to an STF report on the 2018 budget. “With more students and fewer teachers, today’s budget won’t make it any easier to meet the needs of students,” said Maze in the release. At a ratio of 12.42 students per one teacher, Horizon School Division is only the fourth lowest student to teacher ratio across the province. The provincial average is 14.08 students per one teacher. This may not sound like much but during a recent legislative debate, Carla Beck, MLA for Regina

Lakeview, says that Regina Public Schools need an additional 110 teachers to “maintain class sizes and basic levels of support.” While teachers are the ones feeling the strain within the K-12 educational institutions, students are getting the short straw when it comes to education funding for post-secondary education. Even before the budget came out, University of Saskatchewan Provost and Vice-President of Academics Tony Vannelli sent a message to students saying that tuition rates will increase by 4.8 per cent starting in the 2018-2019 school year. These tuition increases are happening despite an increase of $729 million, or 1.5 per cent, increase to post-secondary funding throughout Saskatchewan. In both cases, the university is receiving increases in revenue from two places, the government and students, with what seems like a disregard for costs to the students themselves. One of the ways the Board of Governors decides tuition increases is “accessibility and affordability for the majority of potential students,” according to the University of Saskatchewan website. This is not a way that we should be deciding educational costs, especially when it comes to ensuring the accessibility of education in the province. For both K-12 and post-secondary education, it will be the students that suffer from funding issues.

Raptors set to slug it out with NBA’s best player By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

For the second playoff series in a row, a Toronto professional sports franchise has to face their athletic demons. The first came courtesy of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who were looking to avenge their epic 2013 collapse against the Boston Bruins. Ironically that series followed a nearly identical script: Bruins go up 3-1, only to watch the Leafs win two straight and force a game seven. Then in game seven the Leafs hold a third period lead, only to watch the Bruins score three times in the third period to win. So after watching the Leafs fail, now it’s the Raptors’ turn. The Raptors have a monumental task in front of them: knock off a king. LeBron “King” James and his Cleveland Cavaliers teammates arrive in Toronto for game one of their National Basketball Association Eastern Conference semi-finals on May 1. This will be the third year in a row these two teams have met, with James and the Cavs winning the previous two, eliminating the Raptors in six games in the Eastern Conference finals in 2016, and in four games in the semifinals last season. Of course, the Raptors have more

than one daunting streak to snap, as they set out to become the first team to beat a James led team prior to the NBA finals for the first time since 2010. In the last seven seasons James has made the NBA finals seven times, winning three of those. So the Raptors have their hands full. But after being on the back foot in the previous two Raps-Cavs series, the Raptors hold the early edge this time around. After having a short turnaround, and being on the road, the Raptors are full of rest and hold home court. The Cavs are fresh off a hard-fought seven game series against the Indiana Pacers, where James nearly singlehandedly carried his team to victory. That’s good news, bad news for the home side. Of course, with James needing to essentially single-handedly win the first round series, the expectation is James will be more fatigued than he otherwise should be come round two. Especially since in previous years his clubs failed to lose a single game in the first round, let alone three. So fatigue could become a huge factor, especially considering the Raptors’ best players play nearly ten fewer minutes a night, thanks in large part to one of the best benches in the NBA. Of course, the fact that James

reigned in round one could spell trouble for the Raptors. Can we expect James to regress in round two? Sure, maybe a little, although he seems to love playing the Raptors and always has a big night, but his teammates will also not likely play as poorly. That is where this series will be decided.

Can the Raptors slow down LeBron with any sort of consistency? And if they do, how much production will the Cavs get from the rest of their roster. Those questions will go a long way to deciding how this series plays out. And while we do not know how it will go, we do know this might be the Raptors’ best chance to exorcise the demon that is King James.

Lanigan Elementary, Wadena win team archery titles By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Archers from across Horizon School Division were taking aim at a district title with shoots over the last couple of weeks. Given the circumstances surrounding the bus accident in Humboldt, the district championships were lumped in with the provincial championships, which were moved to Melville. With some shooters unable to shoot at provincials, those shooters were allowed to host a formal shoot in their own school. A total of 12 schools took part in the district championship including, Humboldt Collegiate, Englefeld, Raymore, Imperial, Wadena, LeRoy, Watson, Winston High, Quill Lake, Lanigan Elementary, George Gordon, and Watrous Elementary, where they competed in one of boys or girl bantam, junior, and senior shoots. While archers were taking aim at individual titles, there were also team titles on the line. Lanigan Elementary emerged as the big winner in the bantam team competition, compiling a score of 1,349 as they outscored second place Raymore by 134 points. Finishing nearly 200 points behind Raymore was LeRoy, while Watrous Elementary wrapped up the bantam standings with a score of 947. The junior competition did not feature a school who was eligible to compete, while the senior competition had just one as Wadena was the senior champion, firing a score of 1,290. Englefeld The Englefeld Eagles enjoyed a solid district shoot as they sent seven archers to compete, managing one podium finish and three other top tens. Kara Miskolczi was Englefeld’s most successful shooter as she claimed a district silver medal after compiling a score of 228 in the senior girls competition. Managing to sneak into the top five was Ethan Murray, who claimed a fifth place finish in the junior boys competition, where he posted a score of 241. Rounding out the top ten finishes for the Eagles were Taevan Athmer and Tanner Venderbuhs, who each finished seventh as Athmer fired a 218 in senior boys competition, and Venderbuhs a 214 in bantam boys action. Lanigan Elementary One of the largest contingents came from the Lanigan Elementary squad, where they sent 14 archers to compete, posting solid results that saw Lanigan earn one gold, one silver, one bronze, and five other top tens. Lanigan’s best event was the bantam boys competition, where they claimed a pair of medals and six top nine finishes. Lyndon Campbell led the way for Lanigan finishing second after posting a score of 237, while Ryker Hayter finished one point back of Campbell in third. Jaxon Prouse, Vincent Worobec, Brayden Nivon, and Riley Bieber rounded out Lanigan’s bantam boy finishers as they posted scores of 227, 220, 210, and 210 to earn finishing positions of fourth, fifth, eighth, and ninth respectively. Tynell Mack picked up Lanigan’s lone gold medal, after winning the bantam girls competition thanks

to a score of 234. Brooklyn Sereda rounded out Lanigan’s top ten finishers, after posting a score of 195 to finish eighth in bantam girls action. LeRoy The largest contingent came from LeRoy, who sent 16 archers to the competition, where they enjoyed a decent amount of success claiming one gold, one silver, two bronze medals, and five other top tens. LeRoy’s best event was in the junior girls category, where they posted two medal finishes, and five top eight’s. Brynne Bunyan was the top LeRoy finisher as she claimed the junior girls gold medal after posting a score of 208. Cassidy Bunyan made it a gold-silver sweep for LeRoy in junior girls action after posting a score of 206, beating third place by nine points. Rounding out the LeRoy contingent were Emily Hamilton, Divine Cortz, and Jessica Nelson, who posted scores of 149, 147, and 114 to finish sixth, seventh, and eighth respectively. Wyatt Panter added a third medal after posting a score of 237 to finish third in senior boys, and Carter Timmerman made it four with his third place finish in junior boys action, thanks to a score of 251. Rounding out LeRoy’s top ten finishes were Shannon Hamilton and Sheila Villareal, who finished fourth and ninth respectively in bantam girls action thanks to respective scores of 206 and 183. Quill Lake It was an even quieter championship for Quill Lake, who sent just three shooters to districts. Jordan and John Hill were the lone top ten finishers for Quill Lake as the pair finished fourth and seventh respectively in junior boys action after posting scores of 247 and 227. Raymore While Raymore failed to win the team competition, the Rebels’ 15 contingents enjoyed a great deal of success, claiming one gold, one silver, and one bronze, as well as six other top tens. Josh Frankl was the district’s best shooter as his score of 263 was good enough for top spot in the junior boys competition, and was also the top score posted at the championships. Tony Ullman rounded out the junior boys top ten finishers for Raymore, posting a score of 224, which was good enough for a ninth place finish. Just missing out on making it a pair of gold medals was Inez Blind, who posted a score of 234 in the bantam girls competition to tie for top spot, but Blind lost in the tiebreaker and was forced to settle for silver. Finishing right behind Blind in the bantam girls competition was Presley Saul, whose score of 226 was good enough for the bronze medal. The third and final finisher in bantam girls action was Alyssa Macomber, who posted a score of 200 to finish sixth. The senior girls competition was the next best category for Raymore, as Nidahnia Blind finished fourth with a score of 219, and Kiona Blind finished ninth after posting a score of 184. Raymore’s remaining two top ten finishes both came in the bantam boys competition, with Dylan Third finishing sixth after posting a score of 219, and

Tayden Marshall tenth after firing a 204. Wadena The Wadena Blue Devils sent 15 archers to the district championship where they enjoyed relatively excellent results, collecting gold and silver medals, and eight other top tens. The Blue Devils’ top finisher was Leevi Sowa, whose score of 254 was good enough to capture the senior boys district title by 14 points. Just missing out on joining Sowa on the top step of the podium was Keenan Sowa who matched Leevi with a score of 254, but missed out on the junior boys title by nine points. Rounding out the top five spots was Adrian Byman who collected 201 points to finish fifth in the bantam girls event. The senior boys competition was the Blue Devils’ best as three other archers joined Leevi in the top ten, with Tyson Byman finishing eighth, Charles Douglas claiming ninth, and Evan Klatt rounding out the top ten. While Leevi had a trio of teammates finish behind him, Keenan also enjoyed some company in the top ten as Koby Faubert finished sixth and Brett Fogg tenth. Rounding out the top ten finishers from Wadena were Brittany Andreas and Julia Pomedli, who finished sixth and seventh in the senior girls competition. Watson While LeRoy boasted one of the largest contingents, Watson brought one of the smallest, with just six archers in action. Despite carrying a smaller squad, Watson enjoyed solid results, picking up one gold, one silver, and three other top tens. Watson’s best event was the senior boys competition, where Kevin Huiting won silver after posting a score of 240, with Dorian Green just missing out on the podium, finishing fourth after firing a 231. Kayden McKnight brought home Watson’s lone gold medal as he won the bantam boys competition after posting a score of 251. Rounding out Watson’s results were Ethan Friesen who finished eighth in the junior boys competition after firing a 225, and Emery Sobchyshyn who finished tenth in bantam girls action after posting a score of 178. Winston High Winston High sent an even smaller contingent to that of Watson, with only five archers in action. Despite the small squad, the Wildcats enjoyed some steady results managing one podium finish and three other top tens. The Wildcats’ best event came in the junior girls competition, as Bailee Wilson finished third with a score of 197, and Autumn Duke fourth with a score of 192. Ben Gil and Seth Dreger rounded out the Wildcats’s top ten finishes as they pair finished fifth and sixth in senior boys competition, after posting respective scores of 228 and 220. Other schools Just two other schools sent archers to the district championship, with George Gordon’s three shooters failing to reach the top ten, and the same with Watrous Elementary’s six archers.

Lanigan welcomes community with Lutheran fish fry By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

The smell of fried fish permeated through the community of Lanigan on April 28, as the Lanigan Lutheran Church hosted their eighth annual fish fry. The fish fry is an annual fundraiser for the church, says fish fry committee chair Blondie Siegel, who noted in previous years they were able to use the money to help replace windows and siding, while the money raised this year will be socked away for a special occasion, she said, noting it will be going into a money kitty. The fish fry, featured two sittings, with diners enjoying either jack fish or pike caught in La Ronge. The nearly 200 diners who came through the doors, were treated to both a dutch auction as well as a live band, to accompany their dinner. Siegel notes the live music has been something that

have always done, with this year’s music featuring more vocals, says Siegel. The dutch auction featured items donated by the members of the Lutheran Church, says Siegel, who notes the audience who takes in the dinner features mainly non-Lutherans. “It’s a great fundraiser and it connects us with the community because you’ve got to work with everybody. I’m sure if you take a look out there the percentage of Lutherans would be pretty low compared to all the other ones.â€? Being able to welcome others from outside the Lutheran Church is important, says Siegel. “It makes the community aware of what the Lutherans really do‌ we can all work together and everybody enjoys coming out and having a good time.â€? While Siegel noted the fish fry went about as well as it could have, given the circumstances.

Community says goodbye to Prairie Messenger By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

It was a sad day at the St. Peter’s Abbey on April 28 as the community said goodbye to the Prairie Messenger newspaper and the St. Peter’s Press. The Press hosted a wine and cheese goodbye giving members of the community a chance to come and speak with staff and have a last look around at the operation that has printed the 114 year old newspaper. International News Editor, Abbot Peter Novecosky, says that costs to keep a newspaper running have gotten too high to keep the small, faith-based newspaper afloat. Novecosky says they are anticipating a several hundred thousand dollar loss with the closure of the paper. “We’ve run out of funding,” he says. “That is probably a result of changing patterns of consuming news.” Subscriptions are down and advertising is going elsewhere, says Novecosky, and that is impacting the Prairie Messenger quite heavily. Aging staff and machinery also need to be replaced but there is no funding to do that either. Novecosky has been involved with the Press in some capacity for the last 50 years. Spreading the messages of Pope Francis has been a highlight for Novecosky. “I’m always amazed at the good words he has to spread everyday in his homilies and his writings. He has a very positive approach.” Being the international editor of the Messenger, Novecosky says he has enjoyed choosing what articles to share with people. “It’s always good to have that opportunity to be the gatekeeper and present things on the positive things in terms of life and what people are experiencing.” While the small yet mighty Messenger may have been based out of the small yet mighty Muenster, it has made its round across the country, says Novecosky, with many people commenting on his travels to religious retreats and events about the content and the impact it has had on their lives. “As the letters to the editors indicate, just in the last few months as well since we’ve announced the closing, so many people have said that the Prairie Messenger has influenced them in terms of inspiration, education, and has been a positive influence on

After 114 years in print, members of the Prairie Messenger staff and community said goodbye at a wine and cheese celebration on April 28. Also included in the celebration was Sister Miriam Spenrath honouring the staff for 50 years of close work with Development and Peace. Pictured: Miriam Spenrath, Maureen Weber, Abbot Peter Novecosky, and Donald Ward. photo by Becky Zimmer their lives.” That is the evidence for Novecosky of the wide reaching impact that the Messenger has had beyond their community of Muenster. Novecosky suspects the reason for that is that they chose to go outside the dioceses of Saskatoon and speaks about social justice issues and international stories. The loss of the Messenger also means that many around the country are going to be feeling the loss as well, with many asking what they are going to

do now. The Messenger’s Associate Editor Maureen Weber has worked with the publication since 1994. The more she worked for the paper, she told the gathered crowd at the goodbye celebration, the more surprised she got at the work of the Prairie Messenger. “Daily surprises have become a way of life, and even the negative ones are welcome, because it means people are awake and engaged.” The Prairie Messenger will continue publication with May 9 being the final issue.

Annaheim closer to new playground after talent show

Students from Annaheim School were showcasing their talents on April 20, with the latest fundraiser for the Annaheim playground. The playground committee welcomed students, as well as a couple of parents to the Annaheim School gym, where they participated in Annaheim’s Got Talent. The show was originally designed as a talent night for the whole community, says Christine Roberts, but with most of those who signed up being Annaheim students, it was mostly a talent

show for Annaheim students between kindergarten and grade six. “We put it out there for everyone in the community if they wanted to come and perform but they’re just a little more shy I think so just mostly the students came out, but we did have a few parents join in,” noted Roberts. “We had it posted just on posters around town and throughout the school and so all you had to do was just come down to the school office or call in and just let them know that you wanted a couple of minutes of time on the stage and you could whatever you wanted, a dance, a song, a duet, whatever.”

The show featured 28 acts, with students showcasing their dancing, singing, piano playing, remote control car driving, flexibility, taekwondo, comedy and tongue twisting talents. Roberts says the idea for the talent show came together, because the playground committee was looking for a way to have the whole community help with the fundraising process. “The playground is our only playground in Annaheim so our school children use it everyday at their school. And then our community is obviously using it evenings, weekends, summer holidays and that sort of thing.” The talent show was the latest fundraiser for the Annaheim playground committee, as they work towards their goal of raising $123,000. Roberts noted they have raised $10,000 thus far, but need significantly more to complete the project, which includes re-landscaping the area, as well as purchasing new play structures, and new swing sets. Roberts says they would love to be able to complete the fundraising and begin the project this summer, but notes a more realistic goal has the committee following a two-year plan,

noting the two-year plans calls for the new playground to be in place by the summer of 2019. To help with the fundraising efforts, local artisans and businesses donated some silent auction items as well, which was great, says Roberts. “We love it.” While the evening was fun for the whole family, Roberts admits the attendance was a little smaller than they expected, but says the turnout was still okay. “The kids all had an audience and that’s a good thing when you’re having a talent show,” she laughed. Roberts would like to thank everyone for all their support throughout the night. “We’re thankful for all the support thus far and we’re going to continue to grow and keep the word out there that we’re fundraising for the playground and excited to have some additional and upgraded spaces in our community.” As Roberts notes, the committee will continue to fundraise in the coming months, with a pair of fundraisers ongoing, and a third planned for the end of May or early June.

King Lear inspiration for latest Dancing Sky show By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

The journey of a family with a person living with Alzheimer’s is a common one in Saskatchewan. And while that is not a journey that he has personally gone through, it is something that playwright Daniel Macdonald wanted to address with his Dancing Sky writing debut, Blow Wind, featuring the music of Dancing Sky staple Eileen Laverty. Loosely inspired on Shakespeare’s King Lear, in which an aging, and mentally unwell, father gets bounced around from child to child as they fight over his fortune, Macdonald’s play revolves around Kathleen and her children as they decide how best to address her mental changes that come from Alzheimer’s. Another more prominent inspiration comes from a news story of a family dealing with a mother with progressing dementia. One child decided to let the mother be who she wanted to be as dementia took hold and Macdonald wanted to address that ideal in his play. “One of the siblings decided to al-

low her to be who she wanted to be, to believe who she thought she was and let that just be instead of fighting with her.” Macdonald was fascinated by that idea so that is the direction one of the siblings takes in the play. Macdonald worked closely with Laverty on the music that would accompany the script, first getting to know Laverty outside the play before their work on the play began. Both of them are part of the high school teaching world so they had much to talk about before starting their partnership. The music plays an important role in telling Kathleen’s story, says Macdonald, since music is about emotion and any music has to augment the tone of the play. “You already have a heightened emotional connection when you start to hear the music... suddenly the music is moving through the play and creating more of a flow which makes a big difference.” Blow Wind runs are Dancing Sky Theatre in Meacham from May 11-27.


Englefeld sees three qualify for badminton regionals By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

High school sports are winding down, and the latest sport to reach its final legs is badminton, with juniors in pre-district action, and seniors in both pre-district and district action last week. Both the junior and senior pre-district events saw schools from across Horizon School Division split up into four regions. Junior pre-districts The junior pre-district tournaments saw teams travel to various parts of the school division with the North West tournaments held in Wakaw, the North Central events in Humboldt, the North East competitions in Foam Lake and Humboldt, the South West competition in Humboldt and Wynyard, and the South East events in Wynyard and Foam Lake. A number of schools enjoyed a tremendous amount of success, as 14 schools earned at least one district berth, with five claiming three or more. Wynyard The most successful of the 14 qualifying schools was Wynyard, who managed four top two finishes, including gold medals in South East boys singles, girls doubles, and mixed doubles, and a silver in South West boys doubles. LeRoy Nearly matching Wynyard medal-for-medal was LeRoy, who claimed four top two finishes, including first in South West boys and girls doubles action and second in South West girls doubles, and South East girls singles action. Bruno While Bruno failed to set a watermark for the most pre-district top two finishes, they were able to tie for the most gold medals, managing three top two’s with all three being gold, as they won the North West girls singles, mixed doubles, and boys doubles events. Annaheim Matching Bruno in number of top two finishes was Annaheim, who managed of trio, including a gold in the North East girls doubles competition, and silvers in the North East girls doubles, and North Central boys singles events. Wadena Going medal-for-medal with Annaheim was Wadena, who managed a trio of top two finishes, including gold in the North East boys competition, and silver in both the North East mixed doubles, and South East boys singles events. Cudworth While a number of schools were busy picking up no fewer than three top two’s, it was Cudworth who was the first of the schools to fail to reach that number as they posted two, finishing first in North West girls doubles, and second in North West girls singles action. Kelvington Kelvington managed to match Cudworth in total top twos with two, but they failed to replicated the medal output, managing just a pair of silvers after second place finishes in both North East boys singles, and South East girls doubles action. Others The remaining seven schools to earn a spot at the district championship all managed just a single qualifier. Lanigan High, Middle Lake, and Rose Valley all earned their berth to districts courtesy of a first place finish, as Lanigan took home top honours in North Central mixed doubles action, Middle Lake in North Central mixed doubles competition, and Rose Valley in North East mixed doubles action. Watrous, Wakaw, and Lake Lenore all claimed

berths at districts thanks to second place finishes, as Watrous grabbed second in North West boys doubles, Wakaw in North West girls doubles, and Lake Lenore in North Central mixed doubles action. The luckiest of the 14 teams might have been Viscount, who despite failing to reach the top two earned a district spot after finishing third in North West girls doubles action. With the North Central pre-district event not having any boys or girls qualifiers, a third was opened up in North West girls action, which worked out perfectly for Viscount. Each of the teams who qualified for districts will now enjoy a week off before returning to action with boys and girls singles, and mixed doubles action coming May 2 in Wynyard, and boys and girls doubles action in Foam Lake on May 3. Senior pre-districts The senior pre-district tournaments saw teams travel to various parts of the school division with the North West tournaments held in Wakaw and Humboldt, the North East events in Lanigan and Rose Valley, the South West competition in Holdfast, and the South East events in Wynyard and Englefeld. A number of schools enjoyed a tremendous amount of success, as 14 schools earned at least one district berth, with five claiming three or more. Englefeld The most successful of Horizon’s senior predistrict teams was Englefeld, who claimed five top two finishes, including first place finishes in North East boys and girls singles, mixed doubles, and South East girls doubles and a second place finish in South East boys doubles. Wadena Falling just one top two finish shy of matching Englefeld was Wadena, who posted a first place finish in North East boys doubles action, and second place finishes in North East boys singles, mixed doubles, and boys doubles competitions. Wynyard Wynyard managed a trio of top three finishes, and four top three’s, including first in South East girls singles, silver in both mixed doubles and girls doubles action and third in girls doubles. Despite finishing in second in girls doubles action, that pair was unable to attend districts, meaning the third place finishers, and their teammates, moved on in their place. Raymore Raymore also saw one of their own unable to attend districts as they saw a trio of teams finish in the top two, with just two moving on to districts. The Rebels picked up a first place finish in South West boys singles action, and second place finishes in both South West mixed doubles and boys doubles action. The second place boys doubles team was unable to attend districts. Watrous Watrous also picked up a trio of top two finishes, unfortunately for the Wildcats however, due to the availability of their teams, only one squad moved on to districts. The Wildcats claimed a first place finish in South West boys doubles action, and seconds in both boys singles, and girls doubles, with just the girls doubles team available to compete at districts. Wakaw Despite managing just a pair of top two finishes, Wakaw enjoyed excellent results picking up a pair of first place finishes, claiming gold in both North West girls singles and girls doubles events. Unfortunately for the Warriors only their girls singles competitor was able to compete at districts.

Lanigan Rounding out the multiple district berth schools was Lanigan, who rode a bit of luck to a pair of district berths. The Lazers managed a pair of top four finishes, grabbing second and fourth in the North East girls singles competition. Despite finishing fourth, the Lazers’ second girls singles competitor also booked a spot at districts, after the South West girls singles competition had just one entry, the North East were given a third. LeRoy claimed the third spot, but after their competitor was unable to compete at districts it opened the door for Lanigan’s second spot. Others The remaining seven schools to earn a spot at the district championship all managed just a single qualifier. Middle Lake, Cudworth, and St. Brieux all earned their berth to districts courtesy of a first place finish, as Middle Lake took home top honours in South East boys doubles action, Cudworth in North West mixed doubles competition, and St. Brieux in North West boys singles action. Lake Lenore, and Rose Valley each claimed berths at districts thanks to second place finishes, as Lake Lenore grabbed second in North West girls doubles, Rose Valley in South East boys singles. The luckiest of the 14 teams might have been both Viscount, and Kelvington, who despite failing to reach the top two earned a district spot after finishing third in South West boys doubles and North East boys doubles action respectively. With the South West pre-district event sending just one boys doubles team to districts, a third was opened up in South West boys doubles action, which worked out perfectly for Kelvington. Viscount meanwhile, earned their spot at districts after the top two teams were unable to attend. Senior districts The senior district tournament saw teams descend upon Foam Lake on April 28. A number of schools enjoyed a tremendous amount of success, as four schools earned at least one regional berth, with one claiming three. Englefeld The Eagles were easily the most successful school at the district championships, as their five qualifiers brought home top two finishes including gold in boys singles, mixed doubles, and girls doubles action. Others The remaining three schools to earn a spot at the regional championship all managed just a single qualifier. Wakaw earned their berth to districts courtesy of a first place finish, as they took home top honours in girls singles action. Lake Lenore, and Middle Lake meanwhile, each claimed berths at regionals thanks to second place finishes, as Lake Lenore grabbed second in girls doubles, Middle Lake in boys doubles. With regionals now set, each of Horizon’s five local-rural teams will enjoy a week off before heading to Foam Lake on May 5 in search of a spot at provincials.

Country Thunder brings people together for Humboldt

Shaunavon, Sask.’s Hunter Brothers performed for over 10,000 people during the Country Thunder Humboldt Broncos Tribute concert on April 27 at Sasktel Centre in Saskatoon. The concert, which helped raise money for Humboldt Bronco families, is the perfect example of what happens when Saskatchewan hosers want to get something done, says Gerry Krochak with Country Thunder. photo by Steve Hiscock/SaskTel Centre By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

Families and friends of the Humboldt Broncos got to relax and have some rare fun on April 27 with the Country Thunder Humboldt Broncos Tribute show at Sasktel Centre in Saskatoon. The concert line up was a who’s who of Canadian country artists, says Gerry Krochak, Director of Marketing and Media Relations with Country Thunder Music Festivals, with all proceeds going to the families of the Humboldt

Broncos players. Dallas Smith, Brett Kissel, Gord Bamford, Chad Brownlee, Jess Moskaluke, and the Hunter Brothers all gave of their time to support the family and friends of the Humboldt Broncos. April 5 was a good day for Krochak. He and his team were at Country Thunder Arizona, where they saw record attendance. April 6 was a different story with many people working Country Thunder Music Festival being from Saskatchewan.

and Brody Hinz’s funerals. As soon as they heard, they knew they needed to get involved to help anyway they can, says J.J. Hunter. The Broncos crash hit close to home in many ways for all five Hunter Brother brothers with two of them previously playing in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League as well as one brother going to school with head coach Darcy Haugan, says Hunter. “The hockey community is a small community so all those factors tied together made it hit close to home for us and we knew the second we heard, even to this day, we continue to feel heartbroken over it.� As the Hunter Brothers finished up their Ontario tour, the love for the Humboldt Broncos was readily felt, says Hunter. As much as Krochak admired them as musicians, after all the Hunter Brothers have done during this time, Krochak admires them more as people, he says. With everything else that has been going on around the Humboldt Broncos, Krochak says that the Saskatoon concert is evidence of what happens when a bunch of Saskatchewan hosers decide they are going to do something. “No matter how outlandish, you best get out of their way,� laughs Krochak. “I don’t know where else this could of happened.� To have everyone come together and contribute in so many different ways is really astonishing, he says.

That meant a lot of devastated people that were grieving along side Humboldt and their home province and looking for a way to help. “We were like everyone else. You wanted to help but you were so stunned, it was hard to know what to do,� says Krochak. The thing they do know how to do is put on events, says Krochak, and Country Music Thunder Festivals CEO Troy Vollhoffer, who is not only Saskatchewan born but also has a hockey background, and Kelly Chase, formerly of the Humboldt Broncos, got the conversation going. Canadian artists stepped up, says Krochak, giving of their time and energy for free to bring support to the families and friends in attendance. “The artist’s hearts were really in it. When I think about it, music and sport, especially hockey, they bring people together,� says Krochak. Even with so many incredible moments during the show, one highlight for Krochak, as well as many people in the crowd, was Chad Brownlee’s Humboldt version of Big League, which was approved by original artist, Tom Cochrane. It brought grown men and women to tears, he says. This special mix of Canadian artists included Shaunavon, Sask. hometown boys, the Hunter Brothers, who have been in Humboldt numerous times since April 6, speaking with billet families and performing at Darcy Haugan

MCLEAN: Elgin June 5, 1927 – April 23, 2018 Elgin McLean passed away on Monday, April 23, 2018 at the Humboldt District Hospital. He was 90 years of age. Elgin John McLean was born in Weyburn, SK on June 5, 1927, the eldest of four boys, to William and Mary (nee Ehlert) McLean. He grew up on a farm north of Watson and attended Watson School. Following High School he entered the Canadian Air Force for one year, stationed in Ontario. Elgin later took a mechanics course in Red Deer, Alberta and accepted a position at Mid West Motors in Regina in 1954. It was at this time he met Violet Liski who was drawn to his dancing skills. They were married one year later. In 1959 Elgin and Violet moved back to Watson to join his father on the family farm which he eventually took over. It was a mixed farming operation including pigs, chickens and up to 30 head of cattle. He also held a fulltime mechanic’s job with Fetter’s Enterprise in Watson for the first 10 years. Being busy with work and a growing family, didn’t stop him from getting involved with various organizations over the years, Watson Legion, Knights of Columbus and National Farmers Union. He had a love of all sports, but especially hockey and baseball. He spent many years coaching minor hockey which his son’s partook in, and also sat on the Watson Senior League Executive. Elgin survived a heart attack in 1982, which forced him to slow down. At this time his eldest son Rod, joined him on the family farm which freed up some of his time. Elgin and Vi moved to Ottawa where Vi worked for the NDP Member of Parliament. In 1989 they purchased a cabin at Fishing Lake, which they spent their summers at for the next 18 years. Besides keeping busy with working on the cabin, he fully engaged in a new career, the art of golfing! Elgin will be remembered for being a soft hearted, sentimental soul. His faith was important to him and rarely missed a Sunday Mass. He was a hard worker, who was honest with himself and others. He deeply loved his wife of 61 years and his eight children. In his later years if Elgin wasn’t watching sports on TV you could find him singing and playing the harmonica around the campfire with his many grandchildren. He will truly be missed by all who knew him. Elgin will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by his wife of 61 years, Violet (nee Liski) McLean; 6 children, 17 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren: Donna (Murray) Raab of Fleming and family, Kristal (Matthew) Demas of Fleming and children Skylyn and Tristen, Ryan (Kayla Chicoine) of Moosomin and Cindy (Trevor) Green and son Henry of Fleming; Gregory (Sandie) McLean of Humboldt and her children, Sarah Barczai and son Connor of Regina and Stephanie Brown of Regina, daughter-in-law Vyenda McLean and children Christine McLean of Saskatoon, Kimberly (Jordan) Mills of Saskatoon and Bradley McLean of Humboldt; Cameron (Valerie) McLean of Watson and family, Rylan McLean, Jordan McLean and Raelyn McLean all of Saskatoon; Karen (Sheldon) Schroeder of Saskatoon and family, Amanda (Mike) Ilg and children, Jaxson and Talia of Saskatoon, Stacy Moberly and children Jordan and Keltie of Saskatoon, Derek Schroeder and Jesse Schroeder, both of Vernon BC.; Loreen (Ken) Vidak of Humboldt and family,Sarah (Ted) Sand and children, Gracie and Olivia of Saskatoon, Megan Vidak of Winnipeg MB and Justin (Paige) Vidak of St. Gregor; Jamieson (Mavis) McLean and son Spencer of Slave Lake AB and her children Kael (Brandis) Short and Emily Short, both of Grande Prairie AB. Elgin is also survived by his brother Ron McLean of Watson; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, William and Mary (nee Ehlert) McLean; brothers, Allan and Gordon; children Julie (1975) and Roderick (2014); great-grandaughter Avery Green (2017); sisters-in-law Lena McLean and Viola McLean; numerous in-laws, aunts, uncles and cousins. A Funeral Mass was offered at Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church, Watson, SK. on Saturday, April 28, 2018 at 2:00 p.m., celebrated by Fr. Emmanuel Banahene with concelebrant Fr. Daniel Muyres, OSB. An honor guard was formed by members of the Watson Knights of Columbus. Interment followed at Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Cemetery, Watson, SK.

Humboldt Music Festival puts musical talent on display By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

The Humboldt Music Festival Association wrapped up two weeks of performances with their Festival Showcase on April 30 at Westminster United Church with a repeat of 20 of their best performances. Festival President Patti Durand also distributed 52 awards throughout the evening with performers winning for band, piano, and vocal performances. The festival started with piano performances from April 16-19 at Westminster United Church featuring the lovely jointly-owned Humboldt Music Festival/Arts Humboldt grand piano that recently was permanently installed in the church. Band performances came next from April 23-24 with vocal performances wrapping up the competition April 25-27. Durand was also quick to thank Kristin Farquharson and Karen Kolkman for their work coordinating the festival. Where there is instruction, practice, and investment by students, teachers, and parents in music, skill follows and the festival is a reminder of that. The students were prepared and ready to perform, said Durand, and they wanted to give that opportunity. Music heals, she says. There is also a rush when you get to perform, says Durand, recalling her days as a music student, as well as recalling many times she has watched her own children up on stage. “It’s a major piece of personal development that they will use for the rest of their life.� Giving students the opportunity to balance music with academics and sports

is a wonderful thing, says Durand. However, the Humboldt Music Festival Association is always looking for more chances to do so. This year had something missing from the festival with no string or guitar competitors in the festival and fewer vocal competitors. Durand says this is because there is a significant lack of instructors in the area. “We are challenged by fewer independent vocal teachers and very little choral instruction in schools. We are currently looking at different ways we can support young vocalists to develop their talents.� 2018 Humboldt Music Festival Award Recipients Finnley Jackson Century 21 Diamond Realty ~ Piano ~ Ages 10 and under Nathan Stock East Central Reg.
