Lloyd Costco on hold, indefinitely, sources say GEOFF LEE
WRITER
.................................. Costco Wholesale Canada has made the decision to put the Lloydminster Costco Warehouse project on hold indefinitely. That’s the word from one of the two general contracting companies in Western Canada
that were in the running earlier this year to construct a warehouse, liquor pod and fuel f ac il i t y at a s it e j u s t north of 12th St. east of 75th Ave The original plan called for a target opening in the fall of 2021. “They did not give
us a time frame as to when they may revisit the project,” said an estimator for one of the lead companies in an email Tuesday to the Source. No other project details were provided in the email, but the probable reason for the delay is COVID-19 that
is affecting the construction of some new Costco warehouses in 2020. The U.S. based Costco expects to open 13 net new locations worldwide this year. “There’s been a few that have been impacted by COVID-19 in terms of construc-
tion delays and have been pushed into the first part of fiscal 2021 which starts in early September,” explained Richard Galanti, Costco’s chief financial officer during the company’s third-quarter corporate earnings call in May. At the end of the
third quarter, Costco had a total warehouse space of 115 million sq. ft. Costco Wholesale Canada is hosting the grand opening of a new warehouse in Sherbrooke Que. on Aug. 26 and a new warehouse relocation in Gloucester, Ont. on Aug. 27.

..................................
The City of Lloydminster is moving forward with short-term repairs at one of the city’s busiest intersections. Having deteriorated quicker than anticipated, the City of Lloydminster, in conjunction with ASL Paving Ltd., will be installing a temporary asphalt overlay at the intersection of 44 Street (Highway 16) and 62 Avenue (College Drive) to improve interim intersection rideability and efficiency. The project is scheduled to begin Saturday, Aug. 22, at 7:30 a.m. and will conclude Monday, Aug. 24, at 7 p.m., weather permitting. During this timeframe: - east-west traffic will be maintained through alternating lane reductions; and - north-south traffic will be diverted
through posted detours. North-south traffic will not be permitted during paving.
“
The project is scheduled to begin Saturday, Aug. 22, at 7:30 a.m. and will conclude Monday, Aug. 24, at 7 p.m., weather permitting.
Advance signage will be posted. Motorists are reminded to allow extra travel time, to slow down when driving in construction zones, and obey all signs, detours and barriers. Long-term rehabilitation of the intersection is slated for 2021. The project will include underground municipal servicing upgrades including water, sanitary water sewer and
storm sewer main replacements, and upgrades to ensure the finished surface works aligns with the lifecycle of the concrete block construction. The final product will include concrete block intersection construction and will extend approximately 100 metres in all four directions on the intersection inbound lanes. The program’s total cost is approximately $2.7 million, with $1.7 million expected to come from the Saskatchewan Municipal Economic Enhancement Program funding. The remainder will be included in the 2021 capital budget, which was pre-emptively approved by Council at the June 22, Council meeting.

Silverwood driving charity flick GEOFF LEE
WRITER
.................................. Silverwood Toyota will get a chance to give back to the community when the Prairie Toyota Dealers “Reels on Wheels” drive-in movie tour rolls into the LloydMall next Wednesday evening. The Lloydminster dealership is thrilled to help host the Disney movie, “Onward” in support of the Lloydminster Public School Division’s Nutrition Fund. “We always like to support stuff that supports children and with the school year coming up, I think there are kids that need the help, and we’re happy to do what we can,” said Brian Dawson, Silverwood’s general manager The suggested admission price is a $20 charitable donation per carload with tickets available at the eventbrite.ca website. Onward will be shown on a 4-storey drive-in movie screen provided by Fresh Air Cinema at the LloydMall on Aug. 26. The gates open at 7:30 p.m. with the show starting at approximately 9:30 p.m. Show-goers can simply tune into the instructed FM radio station and watch the animated film from the

Dawson says Silverwood has been talking about doing a charity event like this for the past two years and thought it couldn’t happen this year with COVID-19, until Toyota came up with their Reels on Wheels roadshow in partnership with Fresh Air Cinema. “We decided it was time,” said Dawson. “I think the community needs something like this— more of these types of things where they all get together and have some fun.” The Reels on Wheels tour is hosting movie nights in 24 communities across Western Canada as a COVIDfriendly way to spend time with loved ones, while raising money for various charities.
Trisha Rawlake, superintendent of education at LPSD, applauds Silverwood for partnering with them on the fundraiser. “We are so appreciative of Silverwood Toyota for its partnership with LPSD on this fundraiser. Every year, the number of children who require support with daily nutrition seems to increase, and fundraisers like these help us support our students and families,” said Rawlake. “The grant we normally receive was cut to less than half for this upcoming school year, so every dollar helps.” The timing is good as students and teachers get ready to return to class on Sept. 8. This is the 14th year Fresh Air Cinema has been hosting outdoor movies to raise funds
for local community charities like the Nutrition Fund. The Lloydminster show takes place during Toyota Canada’s annual Red Tag sale, with Silverwood showcasing some new vehicles at the mall. “We’re trying to make sure our clientele are aware of what’s going on,” said Dawson. Those who attend the event and visit the Prairie Toyota dealership team onsite will have a chance to win a 1-year lease of a 2020 Tundra or Tacoma or a VIP backyard movie experience. Other prizes will be available along with other giveaways. “We’re putting together the baskets, there’s going to be some drinks and goodies and stuff by our sponsors,” said Dawson.

Parkinson funder challenges Lloyd GEOFF LEE
WRITER
.................................. The organizer of this
year’s virtual Flexxaire Parkinson Step ‘n Stride challenges resi-
dents in the Lloydminster area to register for the fundraiser today with the head count alarmingly low.
“
I would really like to see the Lloydminster region blow our numbers out of the park because it would be really nice to see us get some bigger numbers than some of the other regions.
The 8th annual fundraiser of the Parkinson Association of Alberta is due to go ahead online on Sept. 12 at 10 a.m. with all kinds of ways to participate and donate. “We’re really down in numbers,” said Sherry Bower-Gagne, the association’s client services coordinator, Lloydminster Region on Monday. “We had a meeting this morning and we’re only at about 10 per cent of where we were last year.” Last year, the Lloydminster region raised about $22,000 of the $375,000 provincial pot, with COVID-19 throwing funding projections for this year out the window. Bower-Gagne says she would be happy if Step ‘n Stride can raise $20,000 in the region this year. “I would really like to see the Lloydminster region blow our numbers out of the park because it would be really nice to see us get some bigger numbers than some of the other

regions. So there’s that competition,” said Bower-Gagne. The provincial target is $250,000 with high hopes communities can rally during the pandemic and push the total to the $400,000 mark. This year’s campaign launch began near the beginning of August and BowerGagne thinks the poor response so far is due to people being used to getting together during previous public events. “It’s kind of a celebration for a lot of people, and you know with COVID and the economy, it has hit everybody so hard. It’s heartbreaking really,” she said. Bower-Gagne says COVID-19 has not lessened the need for funding, noting one of her friends in Elk Point in her early 50s, was diagnosed with Parkinson
in December and will need support. “She’s a teacher and she’s just an amazing human being. For her to be diagnosed with it is quite a shock,” she said. Parkinson disease is a progressive nervous system disorder that affects movement. Symptoms start gradually, sometimes starting with a barely-noticeable tremor in just one hand. More than 10,000 Albertans are living with Parkinson and rely on funds raised for essential disease services such as one-onone support provided to those suffering in the Lloydminster region. Step ‘n Stride organizers have provided registered individuals or teams with a virtual Step ‘n Stride tool kit of suggested fundraising activities from walking on a treadmill indoor
to cycling outdoors, on the stepnstride.ca website. Bower-Gagne has signed up as a member of the Movers and Shakers team that is challenged to complete 30 minutes of dancing per day, or moving to music. There’s also workouts each week online by health and fitness experts that started on Aug. 1. Those who do all six will be entered for a chance to win a flight for two anywhere WestJet flies. There are other contest prizes and draws, both provincially and by region, for registered participants. “We have some local sponsors including the Lloydminster & District Co-op, and Walkn on Water and different partners in the region helping with draw prizes,” said BowerGagne.

First Jane Ruptash Scholarship goes to local student
Supplied Photo MERIDIAN SOURCE STAFF
..................................
The Lloydminster Region Health Foundation (LRHF) was proud to announce the first-ever Jane Ruptash Scholarship, which was presented last Wednesday, was awarded to local post-secondary student Dominic Madlang-awa by members of Jane’s family. Jane Ruptash was a life-long nursing professional at the Lloydminster Hospital and touched the lives of many local patients and staff. In 2013, Jane tragically lost her battle to cancer. Her commitment and love for nursing shone through her work, and to honour her deeprooted passion for healthcare, and to recognize her medical services in Lloydminster, Jane’s family decided to sponsor an endowment fund to support an annual scholarship of $3,000 to be dedicated to a 2nd year nursing student from the Lloydminster Region. On hand to present
the scholarship to Dominic was Jane’s daughter, Jill, and her three grandchildren, Brooke, Drew, and Jaelyn. Dominic Madlangawa will be attending his second year of nursing at the University of Saskatchewan this fall after completing his first year locally at Lakeland College. With family in the Lloydminster area, Dominic hopes to one day follow in Jane’s footsteps and work as a nurse at the Lloydminster Hospital. Dominic is looking forward to attending university this fall knowing his finances have been greatly assisted thanks to this wonderful scholarship, stating, “I’m honoured to be the recipient, I only wish I had the opportunity to meet Jane.� Dominic and his family immigrated to Canada from the Philippines in 2006 making Lloydminster their home. Dominic attended all of his primary education here in Lloyd-
minster, graduating from Holy Rosary High School in 2019. Malcolm Radke, CEO, LRHF, said “We are privileged to be able to help Jane’s family honour the memory of an amazing nurse for our community.� “Dominic embodies the passion and workethic that Jane brought to her career every day for our hospital, and we are so excited for his future. Jane’s memory lives on.� The Lloydminster Region Health Foundation is proud to offer several health-related scholarships through its scholarship program. Interested students can find out more at lrhf.ca/ scholarships. This program would not be possible without the support of the many generous donors who commit year after year, including the family of Jane Ruptash. The Lloydminster Region Health Foundation is always accepting donations towards many projects. If you’d like to help, please visit LRHF.ca/donate today.

Chase Terry Fox on a bike
anniversary of the Terry Fox Marathon of Hope this Saturday during a
Terry Fox Ride of Hope to raise funds for cancer research while ped-
alling a bike. The plan is for Terry Fox supporters around the world to collectively ride the 40,000-kilometre circumference of the earth to keep pace with Fox’s 1980 Marathon of Hope for a cancer cure. The event can take place wherever you are, rain or shine indoors or outdoors by registering
online at the terryfox. org website. A Terry Fox Foundation App is available to manually track kilometres to help riders achieve the collective distance goal of the day. The App doesn’t accurately track cycling mileage, but cyclists can manually input the event activity when their ride is over.
The trick is to head to your App dashboard and above your activity information, there is an ‘Edit my Activity’ button where you can manually adjust your data. The Terry Fox Foundation will continue to support cancer research through virtual runs from coast to coast to coast this September as well.

What do folks from other countries immediately assume when they hear the word “Canadian?” Perhaps they imagine an interesting combination of bacon, maple syrup, moose, poutine, beaver and striped Hudson’s Bay jackets. Or maybe they think of people who are fanatical about hockey or are overly polite and apologize a lot. You’ve gotta admit there are worse things to be associated with than maple syrup and bacon, and good manners are always better than rudeness and defiance. In my experience, Canadians are wellreceived in Europe, although some Europeans have an unusual idea of us and our country. For example, when I was 19 I took my first trip to England. During that time I met relatives we had only before seen in pictures. Over tea, my English family expressed surprise that I wasn’t wearing “traditional Canadian gear.” As it turned out, a popular television commercial for candy bars was playing in England then, which depicted a group of burly Canadian lumberjacks busily chopping down trees in a British Columbia forest. These men sported raccoon hats, checked red and black mackinaws and each wielded an enormous axe. After long hours felling trees in the thick coniferous forest, these fellows paused to ceremoniously draw forth a bar of Yorkie chocolate and consume it with rapt enjoyment. My family felt sure this must be a true depiction of life in Canada.

Many years later, these same relatives flew into southern Alberta and joined a bus tour through the Rockies. After peering hopefully out the windows of a cab on the way to their hotel, they expressed acute disappointment. Where were the longhorn cattle? The “little dogies”? The howling coyotes? The cowboys on horseback, wearing Stetsons pulled low over their eyes as they “rode the range”? (The “range” otherwise known as the Calgary Trail.) In Switzerland once, a train conductor, after determining where we were from, asked if I might know a friend of his who had moved to Canada in the 80s. He offered the man’s name, fully expecting there was a good chance I’d have made this person’s acquaintance. The guy lived somewhere in Toronto. Sheesh. Then there was the boyfriend of a childhood chum. She’d met this young man while she lived and worked in California for a time. He’d accompanied her back home to Saskatchewan for Christmas and was shocked to find we Canadians didn’t live in “igloos”. On his first trip into Lloydminster, I distinctly recall his astonishment over this fact and his further surprise over our amenities. “You have taxis here?” he asked, rubbing at the frost on the window to get a better view as one rolled past.

Leeway from Lloyd: My own best before date STAFF WRITER GEOFF LEE
I am back in the saddle full time after a fivemonth COVID-19 staycation. However, there is an expiry date on my official return to work. I plan to retire in April when I turn 72. Sure, I could keep working, but I figure I’d be just as broke in five years as in seven months from now, so I might as well enjoy KD for lunch and supper earlier than anticipated. It will be like reliving my university days FROM PAGE 8
“This is unbelievable. I thought you rode horses and tied them to a hitching post outside the general store when
without the long hair or flawless skin! Being idle for the past five months was kind of like an enforced retirement, but with Trudeau dollars in my bank account. Thank goodness the pandemic arrived in the spring, which allowed me to cycle three times a week sometimes with one or two others from Lloyd with no worries about social distancing. I also read a lot of books, and as the summer rolled on I got interested in doing brain-teasing word games to crank up my cognitive powers.
Having the time off is like being on a retirement training wheels with the main lesson being keeping busy and active, both physically and mentally. When I was a younger dude and working in a major industrial plant in corporate communication, it always struck me how many retirees ended up dead within two years of their last day of work. Maybe they had nothing to do or no friends or associates, or they weren’t physically able to enjoy their hardearned freedom. COVID-19 taught me
that isolation and idleness can kill you, so it’s important to have goals, some social connections and to stay active. For me, staying active also leads to a lot of injuries, but that comes with cycling hard up to 170 km a week up to early August in anticipation of a fall race that recently got cancelled. Being active also leads to injuries with names like pes anserine bursitis and peroneal tendonitis that are helping me to create a retirement future as a healing consultant. I plan to charge by the hurting inch!

said unhesitatingly. “Does he live in the house with you?” Yup. People have some strange ideas about us Canadians.

Lloyd Exh feeling pandemic pinch MERIDIAN SOURCE STAFF
..................................
The Lloydminster Agricultural Exhibition Association, a staple in the Lloydminster and area community for almost 114 years, might be feeling the financial pandemic pinch shared by many, but they’re staying positive and looking to the future. “We’ve pared-down all of our expenses to what we can, and with no ease on restrictions and no opportunities to have events, we’re really stuck with no income,” said Lloyd Exh assistant GM Jackie Tomayer. Due to social distancing restrictions, the Exh hasn’t seen the summer they’re used to having. Thousands of smiling faces and hungry bellies weren’t able to attend the organization’s annual Fair as it had to

be put on hiatus, among many other revenuegenerating events locals flock to year-after-year. The impact of the world’s current pandemic wasn’t something anyone expected, but as Tomayer said, the Exh is doing what they can to ensure they remain an active member of the community. “Not to say we’re not doing what we can. The
Exhibition Grill, we have kept that going, and we’ve had a few funerals and weddings and we’re trying to do what we can with the restrictions that are currently in place, but with no support from the government it’s getting pretty hard to keep the doors open and look to the future,” she said.

“It’s the government that has implemented these restrictions and there’s no financial support available for keeping a non-profit ag society going. We’re not unique; there’s hundreds of non-profit ag societies in Alberta and Saskatchewan and we’re all in the same boat.” As a non-profit making its way through a pandemic, Tomayer explained that financial struggles have recently come to light as of late, but there are also positives coming out of a dire situation. “The good side of that is the board of directors has really stepped up and taken an active roll in keeping things going. They’re volunteers and they help out the society,” she said. “Our Chase the Ace program is hopefully going to help us look to the future. “Most ag societies are 100 plus years old;
they’re what built these provinces, and we’re still here.” Thinking outside the box has been the Exh’s saving grace throughout the past few months, and Tomayer reminded the community the association is still here and doing what they can to continue to support the community. “We’re trying to take control of our future. Of course, we understand the restrictions and we want to be safe, but we do believe we c o u l d be th e sa f e option,” she said. “We know there’s gatherings being held in people’s backyards and their shops, and weddings are still happening, and we could be the safe option for that in how we can space people out and what we can offer for safety, we just need the government to work with us.” This summer’s trend of virtual events wasn’t
overlooked locally, and the Exh was still able to welcome patrons to the grounds for their Virtual Fair and Virtual 4-H events. “It sure wasn’t a normal fair, but the community bought into it and we are proud we were able to host such an event,” she said. “We also really miss having our volunteers around, and we’ve had a ton of outreach from our volunteers letting us know they’re excited to come back when they can,” she said. Want to help out and contribute to an association that has done so much for the community? Tomayer said the best way to do so is by purchasing Chace the Ace tickets for your chance to win some cash. “Supporting any programming we have going is a huge help,” she said. “Even coming down here for lunch once a week goes a long way.”

In need of some new t reads fo r yo ur fa rm equipment? Have broken-down equipment in need of repairs? Fountain Tire has you covered. Fountain Tire has proudly served the Lloydminster and surrounding area for 56 years and is currently harvesting the savings with instant rebates on tires until Sept. 30. “Right now we have a sale that is more aimed at our agricultural cus-
tomers,” said Fountain Tire Lloydminster owner, Kent Staniforth. “Typically in the spring and the fall is when we like to offer those incentives for new products. If our customers are in need of some new tires it usually pops up during seeding or harvest time.” Staniforth also mentioned Fountain’s onsite-mobile service unit, which is used when a customer can’t bring their equipment into the shop. “We have one truck
that has a state-of-theart manipulator on it that allows us to work on tractors and equipment of any size,” he said. “If the farmer is out in the field and has a unit down because of a tire in need of repair or replacement, he’s pretty shut down, so we need to be available to go when they need us to go, and we need to be able to service them on their terms. “For the most part they’re not bringing it to the shop for us to work on it, we have to go to them. We’re equipped to be mobile and help them out wherever they are.” As Staniforth explained, the farming world as really transcended over the last few years, and Fountain is doing their part to stay with the times.

“You can see by the equipment, it gets bigger every year, and not everyone can work on those,” he said. “You have to have some experience and the right equipment to work on it, and our service truck driver, Terry Bendig, has an amazing relationship with most of our repeat farming customers. They have a lot of trust and a lot of faith in Terry, his equipment and his experience, which is good piece-of-mind for us.”

Aim for 75 per cent canola emergence
File Photo AUTUMN BARNES SPECIAL TO THE SOURCE
..................................
Steps taken to improve canola seed emergence will improve the return on investment for seed and can improve overall crop profitability. If a canola farmer spends $60 per acre on seed, the difference between 50 per cent and 75 per cent emergence is an immediate $15-per-acre increase in the value contribution of that seed investment. But that’s
only the beginning. Yield potential and predictability improve with stands of more than four plants per square foot – which is why the Canola Council of Canada recommends a target of five to eight plants per square foot. With higher emergence rates, canola crops are more likely to achieve this target stand and protect their yield potential. Thick, uniform stands also canopy more quickly, mak-
ing them less likely to require a second in-crop herbicide application and in-season flea beetle control. How to improve emergence percentage Common factors that decrease canola seed and seedling survival are environmental (too dry, too cold, too wet), abiotic (poor seed placement or seed/soil contact, excess seed-placed fertilizer) and biotic (insects and disease).

Here are some steps to manage those factors that you can control: Seed shallow. Half an inch to one inch below the packer furrow is the recommended seed depth for canola. This will reduce days to emergence and reduce the seed energy required for emergence. Seed at a consistent depth. For some drills, the overall average may be one inch, but the range could be zero to two inches. The result can be highly
variable emergence dates and an uneven field. Follow the operator’s m a nu al s to l e v e l t h e drill, check that openers are in good shape and inflate tires to the same pressure. Seed slower. In general, at higher speeds, rear openers tend to throw more soil over the front rows, making these seeds slower to emerge. At higher speeds, the whole seeding tool is less likely to cut smooth, even seed rows.
Limit seed-placed fertilizer. Seed-placed fertilizer can increase seedling mortality. The safest practice is to place only phosphate fertilizer with the seed at rates up to 20 pounds of phosphate per acre. Higher soil moisture will protect seedlings somewhat from higher rates. Penetrate residue. Use openers and drill settings to penetrate residue so all seeds go into the soil. CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

Improving your emergence percentage FROM PAGE 18
Residue should be spread evenly across the soil surface during or after harvest the fall before seeding canola. Leave a firm seedbed. Openers that fracture the seedbed to place fertilizer lower than the seed may not provide the firm moist seedbed that canola needs. Pack appropriately. In wet conditions, reduce packing pressure to limit hard crusting. In dry conditions, pack more to conserve moisture in the seed row and ensure adequate seedto-soil contact. Seed into warmer soils. Soil temperatures of 5°C or higher with warmer weather in the forecast should facilitate reasonably good rates of emergence. The clock starts running on seed treatments as soon as the seed takes in water and
File Photo begins germinating, so rapid emergence means that there will be a bigger window of protection from flea beetle for above ground growth. Rotate crops. A tight canola rotation could increase the risk from seed and seedling diseases that can prevent emergence or weaken the young plants. Use the tools at cano-
lacalculator.ca to identify your risk factors and set an appropriate target plant density, then use that and your estimated emergence percentage and seed size to set a seeding rate. Improving the emergence percentage of our canola seed is a Canola Council of Canada agronomy priority for 2020.

Measuring canola loss ANGELA BRACKENREED SPECIAL TO THE SOURCE
..................................
The Canola Council of Canada’s goal is for an average threshing loss of two per cent – or less – of total yield across the Prairies. But what is an acceptable amount of canola combine loss for your farm? Every farm will have a different answer, striking their own bal-
ance between capturing as much of the crop as possible while also maintaining harvest productivity. To answer that question for your farm, you must first figure out the level of losses out the back of the combine. You might decide that one bushel per acre (bu./ac.) is an acceptable amount of loss, but what if your combine is throwing over
three bu./ac. throughout most of the harvest day? You have to check to find out. And then you can decide whether to keep going or start making adjustments. You need three tools to accurately measure losses: • A drop pan. You can get pans that attach to the bottom of the combine and drop by activating a switch in the cab. CONTINUED ON PAGE 21

How to measure canola losses out the combine
File Photo FROM PAGE 20
These pans usually match closely to the discharge width of the combine sieves. For a lower-tech option, someone can toss a throw pan or use a pan on a stick while the combine goes by at normal operation. No matter what pan you use, you need to know its square footage. • Some way to separate the seed from the chaff. This can be done by hand, but it can be time consuming. Canola screens or an airstream to lift chaff is best. Bushel Plus produces a screening device for this purpose. • A weight or volume measure. Measure the clean collected sample in grams or millilitres, dividing by the square footage of the pan to get a result in millilitres or grams per square foot. Plug your combine dimensions (header and discharge width) and the amount of loss into the conversation tables to get loss in bu./ac. For the tables, print off the Combine Seed Loss Guide. A link to the guide is in the “Measuring actual losses” section of the Harvest Management chapter at canolaencyclopedia.ca. Once
you’ve made a few loss measurements, the next part of the process is to determine how to reduce those losses – if you decide they’re too high. The Combine Optimization Tool at canolacalculator.ca is an excellent resource, showing step by step adjustments to align combine losses with your harvest goals. In 2019, Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute (PAMI) visited 31 farms across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and measured canola threshing losses from 50 machines. These included 40 models from six combine manufacturers. The survey found no connection between combine model and the amount of loss, but weather was a major factor. This emphasizes the need to regularly adjust and test throughout the
day and harvest season. Temperatures greater than 23°C, relative humidity less than 45 per cent, and low cloud cover all contributed to lower losses. Once you become familiar with a machine, you will start to recognize ideal settings for those harvest afternoons that are warm and dry and for the evenings when the straw starts to toughen up. But you can’t get familiar without putting in the time and measuring losses from field to field and with changing weather conditions. You will have in your mind what kind of loss you’re willing to accept, but you can’t know whether the combine is on target unless you check. And by measuring losses, you have a better idea how the combine performs and can be reassured

Three charged following traffic stop MERIDIAN SOURCE STAFF
..................................
From Aug. 12 to Aug. 16, the Saskatchewan RCMP Crime Reduction Team (CRT) was deployed to Onion Lake to assist with reducing gang activity in the area. On Aug. 15, CRT officers patrolled Highway 17 and initiated a traffic stop near Route 797 on a white Dodge Ram pickup truck for a breach of the Traffic Safety Act. The vehicle refused to stop and fled from police. CRT officers installed spike belts on Highway 17 to intercept the vehicle on two occasions. The vehicle exited the highway. CRT officers followed the vehicle and saw three individuals – one male, two females – abandoning the vehicle, fleeing on foot and breaking into a residence in an attempt to avoid police. CRT officers entered the residence and arrested the three suspects. CRT
officers seized a small quantity of cocaine, drug paraphernalia and $2,085 in Canadian currency. Lyndon Belly, 34, from Onion Lake, has been charged with the following offences: - Breaking and entering a dwelling, Section 348(1)(b) of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Resisting arrest, Section 129 of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Possession of property obtained by crime, Section 354 of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Possession of cocaine, Section 4(1) of the Canadian Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Wanita Harper, 30 , from Onion Lake, has been charged with the following offences: Breaking and entering a dwelling, Section 348(1)(b) of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Resisting arrest, Section 129 of the Cana-
dian Criminal Code; - Fleeing from police officer, Section 320.17 of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Driving while disqualified, Section 320.18 of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Refusing to provide samples, Section 320.15 of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Dangerous operation of a vehicle, Section 320.13 of the Canadian Criminal Code. Cheyenne Harper, 27, from Lloydminster, has been charged with the following offences: - Breaking and entering a dwelling, Section 348(1)(b) of the Canadian Criminal Code; - Resisting arrest, Section 129 of the Canadian Criminal Code. All three suspects have been remanded into custody and are scheduled to make their first appearance in Lloydminster Provincial Court on Aug. 17.

Northwest Prairie Pirates sail into playoffs JAMIE HARKINS

..................................
The Northwest midget AAA Prairie Pirates graduating class
stepped up to the plate at Wallace Field for a final time with, more importantly, a playoff berth on the line.
Jamie Harkins Meridian Source
Northwest Prairie Pirates graduating players, from left, Dray Souchotte, Kaden Gallon, Landon Petiot, Quaid Chief, Leighton Veitch, Carter Johnson, Dylan Stephenson, Logan Schmahl and Kelton Hanley helped lead their team to a couple of wins against the Muenster Red Sox at Wallace Field on Saturday.
Th e P i ra t e s b e s t e d the Muenster Red Sox 9-2 and 14-4 in the last home doubleheader of the season on Saturday afternoon to earn a spot in the Saskatchewan Premier Baseball League postseason. The boys needed both wins to secure the playoff berth, setting the team up for a first-round match against the rival Cubs in Saskatoon this Friday. Pirates pitcher Dray Souchotte recorded the win in the opening contest allowing only two runs in five and a third innings from the mound. The Lloydminster Minor League Baseball mainstay then teamed up with longtime mate Dylan Stephenson to keep the momentum
going in the closer, tying the game at two in the bottom of the first inning.
“
We got the energy up. We knew that we could come back and get a win that we really needed.
“It was good that we strung together those first two runs,” said Stephenson, who hit two run-scoring doubles in the 14-4 win. “We got the energy up. We knew that we could come back and get a win that we really needed.” After Pirates pitcher Kaden Gallon retired
the side in the top of the second, Logan Schmahl made the score 4-2 plating Brendan Hamilton and Carter Johnson. Cameron Pero brought home Kelton Hanley for the eventual winning run on a hardhit single to left field shortly after. The game marked the final home date for Pirates grads Quaid Chief, Schmahl, Souchotte, Stephenson, Johnson, Gallon, Leighton Veitch, Hanley and Landon Petiot. The team will be on the road for the entirety of their playoff run. “Really what I was thinking is we need the wins,” said Stephenson. “I didn’t really think about it being our last home game. It was just
if we won we could play more.” Souchotte said six of the graduating players have been together since mosquito ball nearly a decade ago. He said it was tough stepping onto the grass at Wallace Field for a last time together, but it felt good walking off knowing they’ve finally nailed down a playoff spot. “It’ll be an intense game against the Cubs because they were our first opponent this year and there was a little bit of heat in that game,” added Stephenson. “We have to play to our strengths. We’ve got to hit the ball like we did today and just really play with the focus that we want a complete performance.”

The summer of golf
File Photo JAMIE HARKINS
WRITER
..................................
Golf has flourished during the summer of 2020. Larry Gurski, general manager of the Lashburn Town and Country Golf Club, said they have seen a steady stream of familiar and new patrons walk
onto the course since reopening in mid-May. He said the opportunity of seeing friends safely while getting in a bit of exercise, as well as a few club specials, including this month’s half-price sale on ninehole tee times with cart rental between 7 a.m. and noon Monday
to Friday, has helped attract golfers of all ages. Gurski noted the club abides by all COVID precaution guidelines outlined by the Saskatchewan government such as disinfecting the carts after each use and limiting benches to sit down along the links.
He said some rules have evolved since mid-May, including the move to 10-minute breaks between tee times from the original 20 imposed at the start allowing more chances for golfers to get out. “We’re probably having our best year right now than we’ve had in the last seven or eight years,” said Gurski. “We had a ladies night last Tuesday, Aug. 11, and it was extremely good. We were filled right to the brink with capacity for it. We’re happy about that. People are waiting to do ladies’ nights, waiting to do men’s and waiting to do tournaments. But, you can only handle so many people.” Challenges at the beginning of the season involved a lack of stock in the pro shop and chemicals for the greens due to the uncertainty that
a reopening would go ahead, said Gurski, while the limits on how many people can be in the clubhouse at a time along with the caution exercised by patrons has caused a decline in sales throughout the summer there. He added the promotions they’ve put forward such as the chance to win a $1,500-course
25
gift certificate for the 2021 season can be credited in part for battling the difficulties and creating the success enjoyed this year. “Come out and try our course,” he said. “It’s really pretty this year. The greens are awesome and the staff is awesome. They’re waiting and ready to greet you at the door.”

Saskatchewan invests $15M in Agtech MERIDIAN SOURCE STAFF
..................................
The Government of Saskatchewan recently announced it will provide $15 million to help develop new technologies in agriculture and position the province as a global leader in the agtech sector. Through Innovation Saskatchewan, funds will be invested in a privately-managed fund targeted exclusively at agtech companies that require venture capital to develop past the startup phase and scale up their business operations and manufacturing. “The proper support, combined with strong research in agricultural innovation and the success of agtech startups, can make Saskatchewan a global
force in agtech,” said Tina Beaudry-Mellor, Minister Responsible for Innovation Saskatchewan. “This investment will bring jobs and new growth to our province and equip farmers and producers with game-changing technology.” This investment will accelerate the province’s economic recovery from COVID19 and build upon a record year for venture capital investment in Saskatchewan. Deals worth $114 million were made in 2019, more than the previous five years combined, and most of those investments were made in Saskatchewan’s tech sector. Once a partner is found, the $15 million investment is exp ec ted to lever-
age millions more from private investors, complementing Innovation Saskatchewan’s existing programs, which support agtech startups but are not designed to scale companies to full business capacity. Innovation Saskatchewan will issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) in the coming weeks to begin exploring fund options with the private sector.
“Saskatchewan is rising to the challenge of feeding a growing world population and innovation in agriculture technology plays an important role in meeting that growing demand,” said Agriculture Minister David Marit. “This investment will ensure producers have made-in-Saskatchewan technology that supports their efforts to grow high-quality, sus-
tainable food.” With global demand for food anticipated to rise 70 per cent by 2050, Innovation Saskatchewan is helping farmers gain a competitive edge to meet the future by building upon a significant and historic economic driver. The agency’s new investment, combined with its Saskatchewan Advantage Innovation Fund, Saskatchewan
Technology Startup Incentive and the $1 million Agtech Growth Fund, announced in July, will work with the rest of the province’s agricultural infrastructure to help stimulate the provincial economy, add value to Saskatchewan’s agricultural products, and grow the technology sector – all important objectives in Saskatchewan’s Growth Plan 2020-30.
