Stubbs wins Lakeland by Jaime Polmateer jaime@lloydminstersource.com

The more things change the more they stay the same, at least for the riding of Lakeland. The Liberals may have walked away with a majority government in the 2015 election but Conservative candidate Shannon Stubbs walked away with the majority of votes in the Lakeland constituency. According to results obtained from cbc.ca, Stubbs finished with 73.6 per cent of the electorate behind her while Liberal candidate Gary Parenteau followed with 13.7 per cent. NDP’s Duane Zaraska came in third with 9.2 per cent of the voters marking his name on the ballots. “It has been a long campaign,” said Stubbs after the votes were in. “I’m just so proud of our campaign and the hundreds of volunteers that have worked their hearts out for hundreds of hours right across Lakeland.” Stubbs says her first moves as Lakeland’s representative will be to focus on logistics, being that Lakeland is a new riding, but once the logistical issues are addressed, she will begin advocating for the same values and principles she ran on during the electoral race. These include lower taxes, free trade, human rights and what she considers to be “Canadian values”. Safety and security are also part of those values and she says she

will also be advocating for changes to the justice system to put victim rights first. “Those are the areas that I focused on in the campaign and those are the areas that I’ll continue to focus on on behalf of the people of Lakeland.” When it comes to the best interests o f

Alberta, and more specifically Lakeland, she says “we will have a fight on our hands now”, referring to the Liberals having advocated for a carbon tax, which Stubbs says will up the costs of everything for every consumer. She also says this tax may hurt the energy industry a n d

the workers and businesses in the riding. Another point of conflict between her party and the new federal government involves payroll taxes that will be harmful to small businesses. “I don’t think that’s the right plan for protecting Canada’s economy in a fragile global context. We know the volatility of the global economy better here in Lakeland than almost anywhere else because we’ve seen losses in the energy sector due to low oil prices and international market crisis, but also due to uncertainty in potential government changes to the taxation in regulatory and royalty frameworks,” Stubbs said. “So these are the kinds of concerns I have for our constituency given our key economic drivers of agriculture and energy and I will work hard (for) both to represent our constituency but also to hold to account the new government.”

Ritz heads into another term by Jaime Polmateer jaime@lloydminstersource.com

Conservative incumbent Gerry Ritz reclaimed his seat as the Minister of Parliament in the riding of BattlefordsLloydminster for the seventh term in a row. But with a majority win by the Liberal Party, he’ll now have to surrender his spot as Agriculture Minister, creating

a situation he describes as “bittersweet”. “It’s always great and I give a lot of credit to the great constituents of Battlefords-Lloydminster and of course, my election readiness team have been fantastic,” Ritz said of his win. “It just proves that you can make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.” The Liberals winning a majority, however, left Ritz in a state of disbelief.

He thought there was a chance at the Grits forming a minority government, but as the numbers came in, it became evident that a different scenario was taking hold. Though this scenario was hard for him to grasp, Saskatchewan stayed true to its Conservative traditions with no new Liberal representatives voted into the province. See “Ritz,” Page 3

“We’ve all seen the Trudeau brand before and we’re not buying it this time around either. (There are) a couple more NDPs than we had before, but at the end of the day, that’s what created the huge wave for the Liberals, the complete demise of the NDP party nationally.” As for giving up the agriculture file, Ritz says he’ll have more time to spend in the riding now that he doesn’t have to do as much international travel as a minister. On the other hand, he says they were able to make a lot of headway while he was Agriculture Minister and he’s worried a lot of that progress might backslide under new leadership. “The international footprint we have now is second to none. I’m afraid that it’s going to disappear in a very short amount of time. So it’s bittersweet, no doubt about it.”

Ritz earns seventh consecutive seat in the House of Commons with victory in election

Another thing Ritz is unsure about is how the Liberal Party will handle the pipeline issue, which is a topic that hits close to home in his constituency. He calls this one of the “million dollar” questions and in his view, the Liberals’ history of indecisiveness could be bad when it comes to moving such projects forward. The Trans-Pacific Partnership was also a big topic during the campaign and Ritz says it will be up to people like him and the other remaining

Conservative MPs to keep the new government on task when it comes to getting the partnership signed off on. “That’s going to be a job for guys like myself and Ed Fast, who got reelected, and of course the Prime Minister, who is going to continue to sit as an MP as well, to put pressure on them to get that ratified,” he said. “We have to be part of those global supply chains.

tural gains, and between those two provinces, we’re probably looking north of $2 billion a year in annual growth with that TPP agreement.” Despite his party’s overall loss, though, Ritz was happy with the participation in Battlefords-Lloydminster and glad so many constituents took advantage of their voting rights. “I just want to thank everyone for turning out. We had a great voter turnout. My vote count looks really good and I want to thank everyone for the work they did and actually exercising their franchise and getting out and voting. It was great.”

A cup of coffee from Second Cup in Lloydminster can serve as a wake-up call for motorists to stop when school busses are flashing their red stop lights. Starting Friday at 10:30 a.m., representatives from Lloydminster Public School Division (LPSD) and the Lloydminster RCMP will help Second Cup staff serve coffee with cup sleeves bearing the message, “Reds Flashing, No Passing!” This year’s National School Bus Safety Week project is the brainchild of the LSPD, with the sponsorship and distribution of sleeves by the Student Transportation Association of Alberta. LSPD has partnered with Second Cup and the RCMP this week to remind drivers not to pass school busses that have their red stop lights flashing. “We are always looking for opportunities to make the public aware of a safety issue,” said Pat Bucknell, LPSD transportation manager. ”Obviously, safety is one of our biggest concerns when it comes to our students. We have about 1,200 students that ride Lloyd public school busses and then there’s also the other division busses that do provide services within the Lloyd area. We have 13 routes. Each route does a three tier system which means they do three different areas per bus.” The biggest danger for children, she said, is when red is flashing. “If that bus is stopping, that means that there are either children that are going to be embarking onto

the bus or coming off the bus,” she said. Bucknell thought serving coffees with the safety message sleeves was “a nice way to say good morning” to drivers while reminding them about school bus safety. “Second Cup were the ones that jumped on the opportunity to be partners with us and the RCMP,’” she said. Second Cup owner Parm Dhonoa took delivery of 3,600 sleeves and posted signs at key viewing points in the drive-thru to promote the campaign. “Our community needs more awareness about the kids’ safety,” said Dhonoa. “Before this, I was involved in fire safety and stuff. That’s the main motivation because these little kids.” Dhonoa has two daughters, age five and eight, who often ride the bus to school and she is always concerned about their safety when the bus is stopped. “For sure you have to stand there when they come back or you have to walk them to the stop,” she said. “If we make our community safe, it’s piece of mind when you go to pick up your kids or drop them off.” Dhonoa said she and her staff will continue to hand out the sleeves until they are gone. Her team will be helped on Friday by LSPD director Todd Robinson and Bucknell along with RCMP inspector Suki Manj and Constable Grant Kirzinger, Cst. Kirzinger advises drivers the fine for failing to stop for a school bus with its red lights flashing is $345 in Alberta and $360 in Saskatchewan.

Lloydminster gaga for gala Sirens and Sapphires Gala to become annual fundraiser for the Lloydminster Rescue Squad by Geoff Lee geoff@lloydminstersource.com

The first annual Lloydminster Rescue Squad Sirens and Sapphires Gala had a touch of Oscar night to it. Organizers chose a blue carpet over Hollywood red, however, to welcome well dressed guests to the Lloydminster Stockade Convention Centre. More than 520 people turned up to help the rescue squad raise at least $100,000, in what will become an annual fundraiser for the organization. The final tally should exceed the target goal that squad leaders had in mind when planning the event to celebrate the squad’s 30th anniversary. Among the celebrities were about 30 past rescue squad members and their spouses to push the paid attendance to more than 620. “The purpose of the gala is to bring awareness to the boys – of

course training, housing – funding for upkeep,” said Dale Luc, rescue squad chairman who quarterbacked the gala dinner and auction on Oct. 17. “I am very impressed with the community. The oilpatch hasn’t affected us at all.” Luc passed the spokesperson role to Bob Day, the co-chair who explained the gala was the first major fundraiser held on behalf of the full 22-member rescue squad. “We’ve always done fundraising in bits and pieces contacting companies quietly in the background,” he said. “This time we chose a public gala event because of the 30th (anniversary). “We would like to see $100,000 come out of this gala. It’s a goal. It’s good to have goals. “We’ve worked hard to get the right people in the room, the right material in the room (and) the right celebrity auctioneer in the room.” See “Gala,” Page 16

Auctioneer and master of ceremonies Danny Hooper got the gala audience excited on bidding on several donated auction items.

Husky Energy donates golf tournament proceeds by Jaime Polmateer jaime@lloydminstersource.com

Husky Energy donated two cheques from funds raised at its annual Autumn Leaves Golf Tournament to a pair of local charities. Both cheques were for the sum of $23,000 and went to the Lloydminster Interval Home Society and the Lloydminster Sexual Assault and Information Centre.

Below: Patrick Hart presents cheque to Tammy Shopland, executive director, Lloydminster Sexual Assault & Information Centre.

Husky Energy offered a generous donation to a couple local charities this week from proceeds gained at their Autumn Leaves Golf Tournament fundraiser. The two organizations that received donations, accepted on Oct. 19 at Husky Place, were the Lloydminster Sexual Assault and Information Centre and the Lloydminster Interval Home, both of which have been the recipients of the tournament for a number of years. A grand total of $46,000 was raised at the Autumn Leaves Golf Tournament, which took place in August, and the sum was split between the two organizations, with each getting a cheque for $23,000 respectively. Hart says the tournament has raised over $500,000 for the community since its inception over 20 years ago. “We are pleased to announce that the 2015 Husky Energy Autumn Leaves Charitable Golf Tournament was a huge success. 2015 has been a challenging year and we thank all those who were able to participate in this event,” said Hart. “The amount of support was truly amazing and with that, I’d like to personally thank our sponsors, golfers, committee members and volunteers. We would not have a tournament without our sponsors and golfers; your support has been greatly appreciated. “Last but not least I would like to thank Husky Energy for headlining this tournament and allowing us to provide this fundraiser for this community.”

Government approves SaskEnergy rate changes The Government of Saskatchewan approved the Saskatchewan Rate Review Panel’s recommendations for SaskEnergy’s adjustments to both its Commodity and Delivery Service rates. However, the changes will now be implemented Jan. 1, 2016, when residential customers will experience an overall decrease of $4.42 per month or $53 annually. The government delayed the rate changes from Nov. 1, 2015, as the outstanding balance in SaskEnergy’s Gas Cost Variance Account (GCVA) will not be fully recovered until January 2016. The GCVA tracks the difference between what SaskEnergy pays to purchase customers’ gas from producers on the open market and rates charged to customers. The account had accumulated a $34 million deficit coming out of the severe winter of 2013/2014. SaskEnergy anticipated the GCVA to be down to at least $5 million by Nov. 1 when the application was filed this past spring, but more than double this amount still remains at $11 million as of Nove. 1, 2015. “SaskEnergy requires a two month extension to continue repaying this account as less natural gas has been used by customers due to warmer than average weather in the spring and fall of 2015,” Minister responsible for SaskEnergy Jim Reiter said. “With the GCVA fully recovered, the corporation will be able to provide the rate protection and stability customers depend upon during what is often the coldest winter months and the most volatile pricing on the commodity markets. “When SaskEnergy changed its rates in July 2014, it projected up to 24 months would be required to recover the GCVA. A Jan. 1 implementation is still six months ahead of overall projections.” The changes include a decrease to its Commodity Rate from $4.84/GJ to $4.30/GJ and an increase of 4.5 per cent to its delivery service rate. For residential customers, an increase in the basic monthly charge of $1.75 will be offset by a lower commodity cost. “SaskEnergy is able to pass savings along to customers while, at the same time, continuing to invest in important public safety and pipeline integrity initiatives,” Reiter said. “SaskEnergy will still offer the lowest residential delivery rates of any natural gas utility in Canada and will maintain its competitiveness by managing cost pressures through future productivity improvements and internal efficiency measures.”

So many points in election coverage by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

It was a long weekend in August. I was in Edmonton celebrating an anniversary, but first we made a quick stop to the Sherwood Park Bulk Barn to pick up our supply of baking supplies and obviously candy. It was then, 78 days prior to election night, that former Prime Minister Stephen Harper would call what would be the longest election in Canadian history. It sure didn’t work in his favour as the Conservatives lost their power and the Liberals took over as majority leaders. But it made me wonder when it was all said and done, when did Canadians make their decision on who they would vote for? Because with so many days to decide and countless story lines leading up to Monday’s election, there was more than enough back and forth between the three parties to sway voters many different ways. Remember Mike Duffy? We kicked off the campaign talking about him before moving into social media backlash, Syrian refugees, the niqab issue and then finally talking about the economy. And that was just the tip of the iceberg in terms of all the talking points made over the 78 day campaign. There was so much media coverage, so many angles to look at, that even I found myself tuning out the election as it came near. I had had

Publisher: Reid Keebaugh General Manager: Kent Keebaugh Sales Manager: Deanna Reschny Production Manager: Karrie Craig

enough of attack ads and people telling me how bad the country will be if ‘so-and-so’ got into power. And being as I am from Ontario, I got both sides of the fight, as my Ontario friends were pro-Liberal, while Conservative blue ran through my feeds from my Alberta friends. To think though, the United States is going through their own election campaigns right now to pick party leaders who will run for president. It has been on-going for the better part of 2015. Their election isn’t for another year, so they have a long ways to go before their minds are finally made up. The states are used to this much election talk, but us up here in Canada, unless you are heavily invested in politics, you probably thought 32 days would be enough. Maybe so, but it sure did bring many issues to the front and I believe, gave us a great view of the people we were voting for, rather than just a small glimpse into their plans for Canada. Canada has definitely changed. For the better or the worse is yet to be determined, though many are already hoping Alberta can become the 51st state. With no Conservative government in power in Alberta and so many unhappy, I hope more continue to follow politics as closely as they have over the last three months. We need people to be more involved and pick up a newspaper to read about what is happening. Because if you just follow the commercials and sound-bites on TV, the only thing you learned over the last 78 days is that in order to run for the Prime Minister’s office, you better have nice hair.

Good News message continues to spread

NEWS

What would you do without her?

Community church group delivers message of hope Good News in the City will continue to spread to people who live in the north end of Lloydminster. The Southridge Community Church group will deliver its message of hope indoors at Queen Elizabeth school for north end residents over the fall, winter and spring. That’s the word from group’s lead organizer Orly Rodriguez, a pastor at Southridge that launched the community outreach program for northenders with a block party in August. “We saw about 120 people come up to the first event so we were really surprised,” said Rodriguez who heads a commitee. “So every Sunday we kept doing these events and bringing in bouncey castles, games for the kids, prizes and musicians.” Rodriguez said that based on the response to that first event, the Good News group met for eight Sundays in a row at the Queen Elizabeth school yard. “People kept asking us are you

going to keep doing this?” said Rodriguez. “We figured it was time to get serious and embrace the response that we got. “So for the last three weeks we have had nothing at all. We stepped back and said, ‘how can we continue what we’ve been doing?’ So we looked for a location.” The Good News group found a venue to formally kick off its next round of community outreach. They threw a party for up to 120 followers at the Loydminter Exhibition Grounds on Oct. 17 to plan new programs at Queen Elizabeth school. “Tonight we are treating people to a catered meal and we’ve brought over a national recording artist, the Hunter Brothers, to perform,” said Rodriguez. The celebration event was also an opportunity to survey participants on what activities they want to see provided for them. “Would that be a mom’s group, homework clubs? Would that be mentoring and counsellinrg family services? What do you need? What do you want?” said Rodriguez.“We’ll continue at

Queen Elizabeth school. They’ve opened the doors for us and said come on in. We’re seeing 30 kids every Sunday.” Rodriguez calls Good News in the City a movement born to meet the social and spiritual needs of residents in the north end with 44th St. being the north-south dividing line. “Part of what we’re doing as an organization affiliated with the church is we are also sharing the message of hope from people who have walked through addictions, rape, abuse and even situations of poverty or living on the streets,” he said. “We were interested in what’s going on in the north. A lot of Lloydminster is moving south so the almost forgotten region seems to be the north. “We wanted to bring a community event to the north that would be a consistent event that people could bring their families to, a place where kids can come, a place where people could eat. “We started off by just having an event in the park and inviting the whole community in the north to attend at the Queen Elizabeth school grounds.

Smile Pizza is back! The Pizza 73 team will be bringing smiles back, that is their “Smile Pizzas,” as it tosses up some pizzas to celebrate National Pizza Month and the return of its annual Slices for Smiles fundraiser. From October 19 to November 22, pizza lovers in Western Canada will have the opportunity to savour a pie in support of Children’s Miracle Network. Customers are invited to support the cause by walking in to their local Pizza 73 and picking up a special 9” pizza topped with a pepperoni smile for $4.99. The smile pizza will also be available for delivery with the purchase of another pizza. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of these pizzas will benefit Children’s Miracle Network and its member children's hospitals in Western Canada. “We are thrilled to renew our commitment to making more smiles happen in support of Children's Miracle Network,” said Pat Finelli, Chief Marketing Officer for Pizza 73. This year is particularly significant as we not only celebrate our company’s 30th anniversary, but also hope to break the $2 million fundraising milestone together with our sister-brand Pizza Pizza. Our operators are happy to participate in this initiative in hopes of supporting children in our communities.”

Pizza patrons can also support the fundraiser by adding a donation to orders placed by phone, online or through Pizza 73’s newly re-launched iPhone app and website at www.pizza73.com. “This campaign is another great reason to enjoy pizza,” said John Hartman, Chief Operating Officer, Canada for Children’s Miracle Network. “Customers can feel good knowing a portion of the proceeds will help raise critical funds for our local children’s hospitals in Western Canada.” Every year 1 in 4 kids will need the care of a children’s hospital. Making a donation to Slices for Smiles helps support research and training, purchase of new equipment and pay for uncompensated care. To date, Slices for Smiles Foundation has raised over $1.65 million for Children’s Miracle Network. All traditional Pizza 73 locations across Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan will participate in Slices for Smiles. Funds that are raised locally will stay in the community in which they were raised, supporting the Children’s Miracle Network member hospital for that region. To learn more about Pizza 73’s community initiatives, visit www.pizza73.com.

A group of volunteers, family and friends came together to raise money for the residents of the Lloydminster Continuing Care Centre. Hosting a tea and bake sale brought everyone together to help enhance the lives of the residents so they can have extra money to take van outings to places like Bud Miller All Seasons Park, farmers markets, Sandy Beach, birthday parties and special meals for festive days.

On Oct. 8, in conjunction with Fire Prevention Week, Paradise Valley Fire and Rescue gave a demonstration to the kindergarten to Grade 6 classes. The kids saw what tools and equipment the firefighters used when fighting fire, what they looked and sounded like in their SCBA as well as tips for getting out of a fire or if their clothes caught on fire. The E.H. Walter gym was also buzzing with activity as they held their 13th annual Chili Cook Off. Eighteen competitors fought and bribed a long hard battle to win the coveted trophy, but only one could succeed. The bragging rights went to bus driver Jan Zarycki with her “Throw me under the bus” chili. Photo Submitted

From adversity to triumph by Jaime Polmateer jaime@lloydminstersource.com

Winnipeg folk trio Red Moon Road is bringing its show to Lloydminster this month in support of its new album Sorrows and Glories. The album was written following an accident that caused lead singer Sheena Rattai to break her leg, resulting in a cancelled tour and a head start on the writing process. Sorrows and Glories, which was released on Sept. 11, 2015, deals with some of the turmoil resulting from Rattai’s accident, and she also admits that the songs need some rehearsing before they go from the studio to the stage. “It’s funny because we put together this album and we really didn’t road test a lot of it,” she said. “We wrote it and recorded it right away, so now we have to learn the album we wrote and we’re getting a lot of guests up with us. We’re having a few people join us on stage to just kind of fill it all out. We’re rehearsing with them and all of that.” Red Moon Road was one week into a five week tour when Rattai broke her leg during a freak frisbee accident, causing the group to cancel the rest of its dates. The musicians were upset, having to let down fans, but according to Rattai, everyone was supportive. With the tour cancelled and time to kill during the mending period, Rattai went to work crafting some new material. “You know, everything that we go through has an impact on who we are as people and how you kind of cope with things,” she said. “It has an effect on who you are and the people around you, so the whole thing has been part of the process of growth for all three of us as individuals and as a group because I had to come home and do some resting and convalescing initially. But then we basically hit the road right away, so the last two and a half years have been interesting

as we’ve had to change how we tour and how we perform a little bit to compensate for my injury.” Another thing that resulted from that growth process is the leading track from Sorrows and Glories, a tune aptly titled Beauty in These Broken Bones, which directly deals with the silver linings that often follow bad times. Rattai says the writing of a song that comes from

Reasons to safeguard your high-value assets At death, most assets can pass from the deceased spouse to the surviving spouse without incurring a tax liability. But on the death of the second spouse, those assets will be deemed to have been sold at their current market value. Any taxes incurred will be due with the final tax return. In the case of a family cottage or a large registered investment account, the income and capital gains taxes could cripple the estate and shut out the beneficiaries. Sadly, in many cases, valuable assets end up being sold, often at fair sale prices, just to cover the hefty tax bill.

The plans, tools and expert advice for your finances.

a place of pain is cathartic and hopefully lends itself to personal healing. According to the singer, writing the song was therapeutic for her at least, and singing it feels like a statement of triumph. Now back on her feet and back on the road, Rattai and the boys will be visiting The Root: Community Emporium on Oct. 23.

Fortunately, it's easy to prevent this from happening. Many families opt for “jointand-last-to-die” permanent insurance* as a cost-effective way to cover taxes and keep the estate's precious assets intact. With this type of policy, you insure your life and your spouse's life on the same policy. This makes it substantially cheaper than two individual policies and ideal for estate planning, because it only pays out after the second death, when the taxes are due. The proceeds are completely tax-free and with proper advance planning can pay off the taxes and even leave some extra for your beneficiaries.

Gala

Continued from Page 5

Funds were raised from the sale of dinner tickets at $1,000 for a table of eight, several silent auctions and a live auction hosted by emcee Danny Hooper. There were also raffles, draws and door prizes. Auction items included a pair of tickets to an Oilers’ home game, a Rockies Heli tour and two nights at a Radium Hot Springs bed and breakfast. “One of the cool ones is a sky diving weekend for two people,” said Day, who gave a thumbs up to the response from the community by way of donations for auction. “It’s been very good given we are in the middle of an economic squeeze in the oilpatch and the oilpatch is a really big part of this town,” he said. “We didn’t know what to expect when we started going and talking to businesses and talking to people. We’ve been quite frankly amazed with the support that we’ve got.”: He went on to state,” The rescue squad is an easy sell. It’s a necessity in our town. It’s as important as fire. It’s as important as ambulance.” The event also helped to promote awareness of the rescue squad being a non-profit charity with all volunteer members, save for squad chief Norm Namur and deputy chief Kevin Short who are paid. “All of the members are true volunteers. They don’t get paid a single dime for the work that they contribute to the squad,” said Day. The gala was also a chance to fete Namur with the presentation of the coveted Fire Services Exemplary Service Medal. The medal honours members of a recognized Canadian fire service who have completed 20 years of service, including at least 10 years served in the performance of duties involving potential risks. Namur is the founding member of the Lloydminster Rescue Squad with more than 30 years of total service under his belt. He and his fellow members are trained to respond to all types of rescues from motor vehicle accidents to rescues in water and ice to searching

for people who are lost. The funds from the gala will go into a general operating account and be used to fund training and equipment and to find a new location for the organization. “It will go toward the replacement of equipment as we go forward. Funds also for training,’ said Day. “It takes roughly $4,000 to train and outfit a single member before you can put him in the field.” He noted the replacement value of a full size rescue truck is $350,000 to $375,000.

New teacher regulatory board in Saskatchewan Education Minister Don Morgan joined education partners and members of the teaching profession to celebrate the grand opening of the newly formed Saskatchewan Professional Teachers Regulatory Board (SPTRB). This self-regulated body now has the responsibility for teacher certification and discipline in Saskatchewan. “This is an important achievement that gives Saskatchewan teachers the autonomy to self-regulate like other professions in the province,” Morgan said. “We believe that the knowledge and experience that our teachers possess will help create a more transparent and clear process that will build on the hard work of our education partners, continue to safeguard our students and protect the integrity and professionalism of teachers.” The SPTRB is governed by a nineperson board of directors, which is comprised of seven registered teachers and two members of the public, and employs nine staff members who are responsible for administering the policies established by the Board of Directors. “The establishment of the SPTRB recognizes the teaching profession’s commitment to regulate its members in the public interest through an independent board,” SPTRB chairperson, Tom Schonhoffer said. “The Board of Directors looks forward to playing a leadership role in this undertaking.” Trevor Smith will officially become the new Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Registrar of the SPTRB on Nov. 1, 2015. He has served as acting COO and registrar since July 2015. “It’s an honour to be appointed as COO and registrar for the SPTRB and be able to continue to serve the public and teaching profession in our province,” Smith said. “The SPTRB will work within its legislated mandate to ensure that PreK-12 educators in Saskatchewan meet and maintain the standards of competence and conduct required to keep students safe and foster public trust and confidence in the teaching profession.” Prior to this transition, the Ministry of Education was responsible for certification, and discipline processes were administered by

the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation (STF), the League of Educational Administrators, Directors and Superintendents of Saskatchewan (LEADS), and the Ministry of Education. “We all have a role to play in ensuring the well-being and growth of children and youth in our province,” STF president Patrick

Maze said. “The educational partners have worked together to create a comprehensive, teacher-led regulatory structure that honours the public trust and supports teachers in being successful.” “School boards look forward to working with the SPTRB and all education partners in providing

increased transparency and clarity for students, families, staff, teachers and the public,” Saskatchewan School Boards Association president Connie Bailey said. The SPTRB will also be responsible for the registration of teachers, which is a new requirement for employment by a publicly-funded school division in Saskatchewan.

Dozens of Lloydminster Comprehensive High School students are finding that it pays to obey Alberta’s distracted driving law. Student spotters are stopping student drivers returning from lunch this week and rewarding those who are wearing seat belts and focused on their driving with gifts or treats. This is National Teen Driver Safety Week and an opportunity for the school to promote its Students Against Destructive Decisions program. “The SADD program is spending time in the parking lot this week rewarding good teen drivers ,”said program faculty advisor and teacher Christine Buhnai. “These are drivers

that are wearing their seat belts, driving without use of the cellphone and driving responsibly and safely. “We have a variety of prizes from the edible kind – treats, candies - to some car fresheners, car cleaners, scrapers and things like that.” The reaction from the lucky drivers has been predictably good with one day left to go. “They’re thrilled. Yesterday (Oct. 20) was our first day and we only had three drivers not wearing seat belts, so we were quite happy with that,” said Buhnai. Grade 12 students Kienna Elder and Madison Keen took turns that day handing out a daily allotment of 50 to 60 gifts and snacks. They also took time to remind teen drivers to be aware of Alberta’s distracted driving laws defined by the Traffic Safety Act, including bicycles. The law restricts drivers from using hand-held cellphones for texting or emails in a list of illegal activities while driving. The fines for this offence is $172.

When should I take my CPP? MONEY MATTERS by Meagan Balaneski

The financial services industry is amazing and challenging as a profession, but is can also be challenging in a bad way. Rather than go it alone, many organizations promote the idea of a peer-based study group. Study groups are great ways to bounce ideas off of other professionalso, expand your knowledge, keep on top of important issues, and share any cool factoids you learn. Right now I’m active in two study groups – an international one through MDRT called the Consilium Study Group who meets in person once or twice per year and an Alberta-based study group comprised of Manulife Securities advisors called Focus Advisors, and we connect monthly. One of the topics the Focus Advisors have been working on lately is the idea of how to differentiate a practice based on specialization. For example, if we compare retirement planning, versus retirement income planning, there is a huge difference in skill set, approach, and workload that needs to be taken when actually doing income planning. Same is true for cross-border taxation planning or financial planning for divorcing clients. Both are intensely complex areas of planning that should be

trusted to specialists in those areas. Myself, I’m specialized in comprehensive financial planning, lifetime income management, and business succession planning (to some degree – still pursuing a deeper knowledge base on this one). It’s where my skills are at, it’s what I love to do, and it’s where I’m continuing to advance my education. As an income planner, one of the questions I run into all the time (so often, in fact, I’m surprised it never crossed my mind to write a column on it before), is whether or not individuals should take their CPP early or hold off to 65. So there’s a bit of a math component – there’s a 0.6 per cent penalty (as of 2016) for every month you take CPP before age 65, and a 0.7 per cent bonus for every month delayed - but generally I recommend clients take their CPP as soon as they can. Here’s why: Reason 1 – It’s not flexible CPP is likely one of your least flexible sources of income, so it’s good to take it early and preserve your more flexible savings for later. For example, if you need a lump sum of cash for an emergency or an opportunity in the future, all CPP can give you is income. So tapping your leastflexible sources first and preserving your more flexible savings is an easy way to plan for unexpected expenses. If you don’t need the income from CPP and are battling a tax decision, keep in mind that you can contribute the amount you receive from CPP

Should you wait till after or take CPP before you are 65? into an RRSP for an offsetting tax deduction. If you’re going to do this, make sure first that you have RRSP contribution room, and second that you’ve requested no withholding tax on your CPP income. If tax is withheld at source, then the net amount you receive and subsequently contribute to your RRSP won’t provide a fully offsetting deduction. Reason 2 – Estate Planning The other catch with CPP is that you have to be alive to get it. There are some spousal benefits built in, but the survivor benefit only tops you up to what would otherwise be your maximum amount. So if both spouses are already receiving the maximum amount, the survivor benefit is nil. Therefore, it’s best to take CPP out while you’re alive and you know you can get it. Again, in this case if you don’t really need the income, just contribute it back to an RRSP or a TFSA. Both allow you to name a beneficiary which, if everything goes smoothly, means the funds will pass around the estate and directly to your beneficiary of choice.

Reason 3 – The Consumer Price Index While mutual fund investment returns are not guaranteed, and those that are, such as GICs, are at historical lows right now, the case can still be made for taking CPP early if your expected after-tax rate of return on investments is higher than the Consumer Price Index’s 1.3 per cent growth. So why does the CPI matter anyways, you ask? It’s because the Canada Pension Plan Act requires CPP income to increase with the cost of living, which is determined by an annualized average CPI (fun fact: CPP income doesn’t go down when CPI is negative). So when the decision is between after-tax compounding of greater than 1.3 per cent and taking Canada Pension Plan income, it makes more sense to preserve your higher-growth investments at the expense of CPP, which is growth-limited. Reason 4 – Lifestyle The fourth reason I normally recommend that people take CPP early is that most people want to spend it. Of course, this would have to jive with your overall financial plan, specifically the longevity planning section, but the basic part about this is that people want to travel and experience life and spoil their grandchildren when they’re younger and healthier and mobile. So what if you’ll have more income overall when you’re 85? See “CCP,” Page 22

Another week closer to winter VIC’S VIEWS by Vic Hult

Another week of summer gone, one more week closer to winter, darn it. The weather is much like late fall or November. Well I guess we are closer to November as we are past middle of October. Every morning I wake up and there is frost on the pumpkins. It melts off as the day gets warmer but soon the days will be so short and the suns angle so low the frost will not leave. Its called winter. I am not looking forward to winter. On the Hult farm, son Ron and grandson Josh have finished combining. Done just before this last rain. Grain in bins and elevator. Curtis is done combining and the grain is in the elevator. Trucks coming next week to haul it away. Sonin-law Roland is not done baling. He has about a day left. There sure are a lot of bales. I see bales and more bales all over the country. Feed moving equipment is going to be busy. Frank is finished the canola here where I live and is probably totally finished by now. Bradley has two thirds the green feed in the hills cut. The canola is still standing, sprayed, dead ripe and waiting for the fleet. It will probably be done by the time that you read this. There was some farm land on the pasture I sold Greg and Mike. They seeded it to barley and cut it for green feed. They have it baled and have now hauled it home. The hills are starting to look bleak

as the leaves are all falling of the trees. People look at the fall colors and prattle on and on about how beautiful all those orange and yellow colors are. I don’t like it, to me that’s death. I like it when everything is green. I guess I have to wait another six months for the cycle to come around again. In the country side I see a few guys hurrying to finish combining. Not many combines still running. I see other activities. I see guys putting on anhydrous. That’s what farmers do to inject nitrogen into the soil to fertilize the crop for next year. I see some heavy harrows running. That spreads and breaks up the straw from the last crop, so the seeding operation in the spring can put the seed and fertilizer into the ground without plugging the seeder machine and the new crop can come up easier. I did a lot of heavy harrowing when I used to farm. I am a heavy harrow believer. I see some pea fields have been worked just to make it easier to sort through the stubble and seed in the spring. Those fields look nice to an old fossil like me that believes black is good. There is no satisfaction to spraying a field and waiting a week to see if it worked. A combination of spray and tillage will keep your soil warm and ready to go for next year. Brain dead zero tillers any ways... In politics, by the time you read this, the attack ads will be over, the goose has been cooked, the fat lady will have sung and Stephen Harper may or may not be Prime Minister of Canada. Maybe Mr. Trudeau will have to be ready. This election race has been closer than a Blue Jays playoff game. I am sick of the campaign. I wish it to be over. The public worn out from all the campaigning. The candidates are looking tired and are wishing it was over. Even the media doesn’t seem to have the same enthusiasm. Some in the media are blatantly

cheer leading for Trudeau. First, when it looked like Mulcair was winning they were on his side. He could do no wrong. Then he slips a little in the poles and they quickly jump on the Trudeau bandwagon. What two faced scumbags. How can we ever expect fair and honest reporting with guys like that in there. Well, thank god it is over. Looks like Mulcair will slip to third place. That is fine with me. I really did not want him as Prime Minister, anyways. My hat is off to all those people who let their name stand for election regardless of what party. Your efforts are what made democracy work and I thank you. In other news, the Editor for the Source, Colin Budd, has moved on and is now with the credit union. Thank you to Colin for taking my column and printing stuff that comes out of my head. I thank you for allowing me to express my view, as I know it is not always what the crowd mentality is. I will miss you even though you didn’t print all of my jokes. I wish you all the success in your new job but I have a negative. Over the years I have developed a distrust and dislike for bankers. You are with the credit union so you are somewhat safer as long as the members can prevent the suits from amalgamating the whole system into Credit Union Central Bank. At that point, the members are out and the suits have control. Your value to the bank is less than that computer and desk you sit at. The bank have no problem throwing you or anyone else under the bus. You are probably fine at the local level but as you climb up the ladder you will find they are not all nice people... Joke of the Week from grandson Santi (9): What is a mouse like after it come out of the shower. Answer—squeaky clean.

The Lakeland Rustlers men’s soccer team needs to win both their final matches this weekend, while also hoping for a Red Deer loss or draw if they want to return to the ACAC championship tournament and better their bronze medal from last year.

Sense of urgency Lakeland could miss provincial tournament after capturing bronze last season by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

The Lakeland Rustlers men’s soccer team could not have asked for a worse possible outcome in their match against Red Deer. Having already lost to the Kings earlier in the season, but still ahead of them in the standings, Lakeland needed a victory last Saturday to guarantee themselves a spot in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC) championships. However, costly mistakes and inconsistencies in the Rustlers play proved to be their downfall, as a 2-1 loss to Red Deer now puts the two schools in a tie for the third and final playoff spot in the South Division. With two games remaining for both teams, Lakeland needs to not only win both, but hope for a Red Deer draw or loss in one of their final two games, or else the Kings will advance to the playoffs because of the tiebreaker victories over Lakeland. “We keep making these stupid mistakes,” said head coach Kevin

Wagner. “At the end of the day, we are not consistent enough. We give up stupid goals, like a free kick, or our wall turns to give up a free goal. That shouldn’t happen. Then in the attacking area we have position, but you wouldn’t know it. We had position, that isn’t the issue. It is what can we do with it.” Red Deer and Lakeland are travel partners so they play the same teams each weekend. On Saturday, Lakeland will host the 6-1-0 Lethbridge Kodiaks, while Red Deer hosts the 2-5-0 Medicine Hat Rattlers. On Sunday, The Rattlers head to Lakeland while the Kodiaks go to Red Deer for the final regular season games of the season. In their previous matches, the Rustlers defeated Lethbridge 5-4 and got a 4-3 victory over Medicine Hat. Red Deer, on the other hand, lost both of their matches to those two schools, losing 2-0 to the Rattlers and 4-0 to the Kodiaks, leaving Lakeland a chance to still make it into the playoff round. “Now we are in a bad spot as we

at least have to win our last two games,” said Wagner. “For some reason, Red Deer has got us twice. This next week will just be middle to attacking third play, finishing, trying to find some class in our finishing. It’s been frustration.” Wagner said that if the Rustlers can make the playoffs they can have success, as he feels the team is better prepared for the playoffs this season, more so than last year when they won bronze at the ACAC championship tournament they hosted. Last year was too easy to make the playoffs, while this season, the Rustlers still have to work for a position in the ACAC championships. But as Wagner said, finding class on their finishing will be the difference in whether or not the team returns to the post-season. “If we can get there we will be alright,” said Wagner. “We are fighting and battling. There is no class in our finish. We have talent, but if we are not executing, then it is not efficient. The opportunity is there, but when it is tight we are not

finishing. Last year we would have finished on those. This year, that is the difference. “It is disappointing because we are more talented than last year, but we are struggling more.” With a trip to the provincial tournament on the line this weekend and a chance to better their bronze medal from last year, Wagner said he may change up the systems and play a heavy attack offence against Lethbridge and Medicine Hat. Simply put, they need two victories and need some help to get back into the ACAC championship. But they can only control what happens on their pitch, as any more missed opportunities could be the difference in the season coming to an end on Sunday or not. “There better be a sense of urgency,” said Wagner. “If not, then we are in trouble. We’ll see what is going to happen in training, but there better be a sense of urgency and that they need to find some class in the attacking third. “We need to win.”

Raiders prepare for semifinal against Barons

Andrew Brethauer Photo

The Holy Rosary Raiders will take on the Lloydminster Barons for the second time in three weeks when they meet on Friday for their semifinal matchup in the Wheatland Football League.

Raiders and Barons meet in rematch of last season’s WFL championship game by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

The Holy Rosary Raiders haven’t had many opportunities to prepare for big games. Their undefeated 6-0 season started with mostly blowout victories over Westlock, Bonnyville, Vermilion and Cold Lake before they got their first test against the St. Paul Lions, a game that the Raiders were losing at halftime before coming back for a 39-22 victory. Then they got prepared for the Lloydminster Comprehensive Barons, their city-rivals, in a rematch of last season’s Wheatland Football League finals. Holy Rosary won, 32-12, ensuring they would have a bye week in the first week of playoffs, awaiting the quarter-final matchups to be completed. With the season on the line, the

Barons are once again the team Holy Rosary will prepare for, as they look to make their third straight appearance in the WFL final and keep their provincial championship hopes alive. “Everything is on the line here, the whole season,” said head coach Vince Orieux. “There is a lot riding on it. It doesn’t matter who we are playing, it is the same mentality and the preparation is the same. We go into this week like it is any other week.” While a Raider victory would put them in their third straight final, a loss could end their season completely, depending if St. Paul wins in the other league semifinal against Westlock. With the Raiders and Lions considered Tier IV schools in Alberta, only one from the WFL would go into the provincial qualifying games and possibly play for the Alberta

Bowl, the trophy Holy Rosary won last year as well. For Orieux, a victory and third straight appearance is not only great for this year’s team, it is also great for the program as a whole, as it shows Holy Rosary is capable of fielding talented football teams spanning multiple years, and isn’t just a one-year power house. “It would show that we continue to be competitive every year,” said Orieux. “It is not just one group of players that gets us there, it is the system that works. It would be huge for us to say we graduated a bunch of kids last year, but we are right back where we need to be.” Having their schedule back-end heavy has been the perfect scenario for the Raiders, as Orieux said he doesn’t have to try very hard to get the players excited for the semifinals against the Barons, considering the

rivalry and friendships between the two schools. He called the St. Paul game a pivotal game in their schedule as it gave the Raiders their first real test, and Orieux felt the players grew up in that game. Now, with the season on the line in an elimination game, the Raiders are hoping for another coming out party and to cement their status as the best team in the WFL heading into the finals the week after. “As much as you tell the kids not to look at the standings, they know, they talk, and they see that stuff and who is strong,” said Orieux. “There was huge question marks for us about who we were, where do we fit in, but the kids put in a good effort a couple of weeks ago and we are comfortable at this point in the season.” The semifinals game will be played at Holy Rosary on Friday night, with kickoff scheduled for 6:30 p.m.

Rustlers battle to perfect start by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

The Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC) got their first look at a brand new Lakeland Rustlers men’s basketball team, one that is capable of playing a shootout style basketball game, while also being able to lock down under pressure. In their season debut against the Augustana Vikings, the Rustlers put up 110 points in a 110-61 victory, limiting the Vikings to under 20 points in each quarter. In the follow up game on Saturday night at Lakeland’s home opener, the Rustlers came away with their second victory of the season with a 69-53 performance, marking the first time Lakeland has started the season 2-0 since 2011. “Our team has never won a game by that many points before, so it is a brand new experience for them and myself,” said head coach Sheray Thomas. “My guys battled, and at the end of the day we still won. It is early in the season, so there is a lot to do, but I am happy to be 2-0, that’s for sure.” Prentice Gardner started his ACAC career off with 25 points on Friday night to lead the Rustlers to victory, and followed it up on Saturday with another team leading 15 point effort. Gardner is shooting 50 per cent from the floor so far, and led the team with 59 minutes of court time between the

two games. Lloydminster native David Salus counted 15- and 14-points in the season openers to give the Rustlers secondary scoring, while combined, six different Rustler players scored double-digit points in the 110-61 victory, while four had over 10 in Saturday night’s win as well. “It’s just about gelling together right now,” said Salus. “Definitely a team win. That is the thing with this team, pretty unselfish guys. For most of the season we are going to be an unselfish team. At the end of the day, to be 2-0, we are pretty happy with that.” Thomas noted that Lakeland will have to continue to keep their composure if another team goes on a scoring run. Rather than trying to do it all themselves, Thomas wants to see the Rustlers slow down the pace and work as a five-man unit, rather than trying to go at it alone. But with so many new names in the lineup still working on coming together, that will be a constant work in progress. And for now, starting 2-0 is the best confidence booster the Rustlers could ask for as they plan to take on Concordia this weekend. “I’m definitely happy to be 2-0, rather than 0-2,” said Thomas. “But at the same time there is a lot to work on. Concordia is one of the better teams on our side. On the (North) side, there are probably four teams that are pretty even. So next weekend we will see how good we really are.”

Veteran led team has slow start All-Conference team members from last year that helped lead the Rustlers to a 18-6 record, Lakeland is full of talent and ready to get back into the thick of a heavy ACAC volleyball schedule. “The team is ready for league, they know what to expect, they know what it is going to take to be successful,” said head coach Austin Dyer. “We had our long road trip to start the season and they had already been through it. Having those veterans back is huge for us heading into our season here. They are able to tweak things from last year and see what works and what doesn’t, so they are looking to see what they can change to be successful that day.”

Winning by a team effort Rustlers open season with convincing victories over Augustana

Andrew Brethauer Photo

Cameo McKerlie led the Lakeland Rustlers during the opening weekend with 49 points in two games against the Augustana Vikings.

Bandits make it four in a row by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

The Lloydminster Bandits may have dropped their first game of the season to the Wainwright Bisons, but since then, the junior B hockey club has strung together four straight victories in the North Eastern Alberta Junior B Hockey League (NEAJBHL). Last weekend, the Bandits shut out the Saddle Lake Warriors 3-0, the second time in three games Lloydminster has picked up two points off the Warriors. Hunter Maydonick, Jarvis Nicodemus and Keshane Pahtayken scored for the Bandits in the victory, while Brendan Plant made 33 saves for his first shutout of the season. The victory put the Bandits in a three-way tie for third place with the St. Paul Canadiens and Frog Lake T-Birds, and one point behind the Killiam Wheat Kings for second in the league. Wainwright, through their first seven games, have yet to lose. Team captain Brody Pollard leads the team with three goals and seven points in five games, while Plant currently has three victories and a 1.00 goals against average and .956 save percentage. Lloydminster will take on the Onion Lake Border Chiefs this Saturday at the Civic Centre with an 8 p.m. puck drop.

Talent alone will win the Lakeland Rustlers women’s basketball team many games this season, but it was a team effort during the opening weekend that led the Rustlers to two victories over the Augustana Vikings. An up-tempo style of play, mixed with a locked-in defence led the Rustlers to a 74-44 victory on Friday night in Augustana to open the season, which was followed by a 85-41 on Saturday night in Lakeland’s home opener. Noticeably, Lakeland’s talented players managed the game on the court from start to finish, but it was an all around team effort that put the Rustlers in the driver’s seat during the opening weekend, as every Rustler recorded at least one point between the two games. “Our talent level is high again,” said head coach Chris King. “I would call it a team win. We did so many things right and I thought we played really nice basketball. Lots of movement of the ball, lots of shots, lots of assists. It was pretty to watch from a coaches perspective.” Fifth-year player Cameo McKerlie led the Rustlers in both games with 24 points on Friday and 25 on Sunday, while third-year Shania Magnusson had 17 points in Saturday night’s home victory, while pulling down 12 rebounds between the two games. Lakeland shot 36 per cent from the floor on Friday night and 38 per cent on Saturday, as compared to the Vikings, who could only complete around a quarter of the shots they put on net. But the real difference was time of possession, something the Rustlers controlled throughout both games and will try to do as the season continues. Lakeland has proved in the past they are capable of playing a fast pace game, but as the season moves forward, having the ability to slow the game down will be a coveted asset, especially closer to the regular season’s end. “We took care of the ball and that really showed in the end,” said McKerlie. “(Momentum) was something we were missing last year. We would get up by 10 and then we would let them back in. This year it was good that we were able to get up

and be able to keep pushing it. All the girls pushed it on transition. It feels awesome that we were all able to perform so well as a whole.” The 159 points scored is the most of any team in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC) in the opening weekend, while the 85 points against left the Rustlers as the only team that played to not give up triple digit points. They are joined on the top of the North Division by the NAIT Ooks and Grande Prairie Wolves who also went undefeated in their opening weekend, in what will be a very competitive division to come out of. A major question coming into the season was on Lakeland’s conditioning, as early preseason injuries left the Rustlers practicing with six players at times, and left doubts that they could win as a team and not just rely on their talent to get them by. And while King said the conditioning still isn’t the greatest, he was able to manage the game with short shifts, rotating through his bench to limit the time on the floor for all his players. “This is where you see who is going to fight through and who is not,” said King. “I was happy with what we did, but we still have a long ways to go. It’s a building process for us. “We are not winning ACAC’s this first week, we are just trying to get better.”

Could this be the year for playoffs? by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

Taylor Dyer believes this year’s Lakeland Rustlers men’s volleyball team can be a playoff team. The Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC) championship tournament has avoided the Rustlers for many seasons, as the program has had to deal with constant change and players heading to other programs. But with a good mix of veterans returning and some experienced rookies who made their college debut last weekend, the Rustlers head coach believes that things have finally aligned for Lakeland to finally make a playoff appearance. “Teams that are veteran and have a lot of experience are most often successful,” said Dyer. “We have been waiting for this for a long time to have this kind of experience on the floor. That in itself is going to be huge in taking that next step to being a playoff team. The skill level with some of the guys we have is quite phenomenal. With the program we have at Lakeland, it is tough to be super consistent and balanced all the way across, so we will have some small gaps within our starting lineup, but hopefully we have enough to go around those core guys and we’ll be successful.”

Lakeland went 2-0 to open their season after a long trip up to Grande Prairie, winning in a close fifth set, 15-13, on Friday night in the season opener, followed by a 3-1 set victory on Saturday against the Wolves. It was the longest road trip of the season the Rustlers will have to make, so to get it out of the way earlier before weather conditions make travelling difficult is a bonus heading into the season. “It’s nice to get that long trip out of the way earlier, especially when it is not bad weather conditions,” said Dyer. “To start the season (on the road) is a little rough. All the excitement of starting the season and we have to go up on the road into an atmosphere that is a tough one to be in.” Last season, Lakeland started off winning their first three games of the season before losing their next five straight. The year ended with a 8-16 record, with the Rustlers losing their last eight games. This year, while a great start in the standings is what every coach looks for, Dyer is looking to make sure the team is playing good volleyball and not making errors. If they can avoid constantly playing from behind, results could be favourable for Lakeland on the court. “The guys need to understand it is a process and if we are able to be

successful in those things, it will be a big thing for us in terms of what our record will be,” said Dyer. “This group plays a little more loose when we are not in a nail biter or trying to come from behind. But at the same

time, we showed in the past that it shows the character of the guys we do have. “We just have to make sure we are really consistent and that will be the big part this year.”

Toothbrushes and shampoo MIDWEST MINUTE by Vern McClelland www.vernmcclelland.com

Look in most bathrooms and probably the only two things that are specifically unique for each family member is their toothbrush and the type of shampoo they use. Nobody wants the others brand, and are willing to accept that personal preference is quite okay in those circumstances. Funny how that same tolerance for diversity in daily living is rarely embraced when that same family is searching for a new home. If you meet as many buyers as we do, you will quickly learn that most house purchases are ultimately decided by the person who shows the greatest determination to get what he or she wants. We try really hard to keep all buyer wants / needs in balance, but often one or the other will get their way. Every Realtor can tell you a story about the couple who dragged them through tens, sometimes upwards to a hundred houses in search of common ground. I really don’t have the skill, patience or time to be a marriage counsellor so once I realize this is the type we are working with I will introduce them to a colleague with much more enthusiasm for the chase. Then there is the “helicopter” parent. They hover over the first home buyers, dismissing the experience and knowledge of the Realtor and loudly expressing their wisdom outside, inside, within every room, and in the car between houses. Nothing will satisfy them until they get to pick where and what Junior and Miss will live in. Working with this type of buyer can go sideways fast. In one memorable case, the mother of the

Shutterstock Photo

young lady kept rejecting the houses the kids had picked out, finally telling her daughter in no uncertain terms that they needed to find a house that was more suitable for children. The look on the boyfriend’s face at that moment was absolutely priceless. Obviously he hadn’t considered babies to be in the cards for the near future and they broke up shortly afterwards. Sometimes we run into the buyer who has champagne taste on a beer budget. They love looking at upscale properties but never pull the trigger on an offer to purchase. Dig deep enough and you will find they can’t afford what they have been touring, but like to see how the other half lives. We try to curb this behavior as soon as we can in respect to the inconvenience being caused to the seller who has to leave each time their home is shown. As the old saying goes, however, you cannot judge a book by the cover. I distinctly remember

meeting one gentleman for the first time when he came to the office unshaven, weary, and looking like he had just come off a long shift working in the mud. Turns out he had been on a remote site twenty one days straight to finish off a major project. He looked like an overworked swamper that day but eventually I learned he owned a construction company. Not a small company either; one that employed well over a hundred people running a fleet of large iron. He gave me a list of what he wanted in a house and told me not to call him until we found one that fit the criteria. It took a while but when we did he paid cash. Now you got to like that.

Renovating as a couple You’ve been dreaming of renovating your home for ages, but be careful — home renovations are often the cause of friction within a couple. Here are a few great tips for avoiding fights with your better half during your renovations. 1. COMMUNICATE. Yes, this is still and will always be the key to successful renovating. Be open to your partner’s needs and express your own without imposing your ideas. No one wants to be told what to do and

what to like. Instead, explain what is motivating your choices. 2. ASK FOR ADVICE. You can’t come to an agreement? Talk to an architect, designer or even a friend — if he or she has good taste, of course. Let them play the role of mediator and help you both decide. 3. PLAN. Before you start work on your project, schedule each step of the renovations, deciding exactly what has to be done and when. Changing your mind about the position

of the sink isn’t a good idea when the only bathroom in the house is under construction and your nerves are stretched to the breaking point. 4. MAKE COMPROMISES. Obviously, you don’t want to have to look at yellow walls for the next few years if you happen to hate that particular colour. But is it really so important that the cabinets have oval rather than round handles? Choose your battles based on what’s most important to you.

Grasses you don’t cut GREEN FILE by Mark Cullen www.markcullen.com

When you think of grass it is hard not to let your mind go in the direction of the stuff that you cut and walk on. I am not talking that type of grass. Ornamental grasses are far more exciting than the aforementioned, in my humble opinion. When I visited the Bluestem Nursery website (located in south/central B.C. and considered one of the leading growers of ornamental grasses www. bluestem.ca) I found their list of ‘reasons why ornamental grasses are so popular’ which includes more than 50. In the interest of holding your interest in this subject I will limit my list to four: they are easy to grow (and therefore ‘low maintenance’), thrive on a lack of water (and attention), have very few natural predators (insects and diseases), you can dig and divide them as they mature (adding value to your garden) and they look their best when the rest of your garden looks its’ worst: late fall and winter. To grow great ornamental grasses you must have a minimum of six hours of sunshine in your garden, except for Sedge grass. Here are my top four picks from over 30 found in most full-service garden retailers: 1. Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis). Very winter hardy, fast to become established, great looking all winter, attractive to many songbirds and flat out easy to grow. The flowering period varies by variety from July through October and August through November, but left alone, they all provide a fabulous wheat-like head of flowers that fade to seeds. Let them blow in the wind and enjoy their unique movement and sound. I love Maiden Grass as it is the ultimate low maintenance species: nothing seems to kill it and yet it behaves itself with a growth habit that provides a clumping form. Feel free to dig-and-divide every five years. Look for the two meter high Huron Star or 120 cm high Porcupine grass (variety ‘Strictus’). 2. Blue Stem. (Andropogon gerardii) check out that botanical name in italics: if you memorize this one your friends will think you know every-

thing about horticulture. Funny how that works. This blue stem is sometimes called ‘big’ blue stem as it can grow up to two meters and is also available at 100 cm (‘little blue stem’). It is wrought-iron hardy to Zone 3 (Edmonton), thrives in sandy and clay soil, every kind of soil in between and is very drought tolerant. Blue Stem looks fabulous planted in clumps as a transition from the formal part of your garden into a meadow. 3. Fountain Grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides) this is an ornamental grass that you will recognise the moment you see it, “Oh, so that is what it is called.” Fountain grass features a classic fox-tail flower head that looks great blowing in the wind. Look for Burgundy Bunny at Sheridan Nurseries (a red/green colour) which grows to 40 cm or Desert Plains for 120 cm of growth. Either way, they are hardy to zone 4 (Ottawa and Montreal) and clump nicely. Fountain grass prefers a hot, dry location in well drained soil. 4. Sedge (Carex). This is an anomaly in the world of ornamental grasses, but in truth it is not a grass but a sedge. Never mind. All you really need to know is that it thrives in moist, open soil unlike any other ornamental grass and it will tolerate a half day of shade. Sedge only grows to 20 or 30 cm tall. Look for ‘Beatlemania’ and ‘The Beatles’. These harry looking, low risers look like George, Paul, John and Ringo as they did in their youth. A bit unkempt, you might say. But a crowd pleaser for sure. You will love them, ya, ya, ya. Hardy to Zone 5 or Barrie. If privacy is of prime interest to you I suggest that you consider Pampas grass. It grows to three meters (23 feet) in one year. Unlike a fast growing poplar tree, if you don’t like it just dig it up and compost it: no bother. It is not reliably winter hardy in Toronto but often it comes through a mild winter nicely. I recommend fall planting of ornamental grasses as you will know exactly what you are putting in the ground this time of year, as they look their best. In spring they take their sweet time emerging from the soil and it is hard to know what they are going to look like come late summer/ fall. I leave my ornamental grasses standing all winter as they are the most interesting thing out there in my garden other than the songbirds. I cut them down to stubble come spring.

Long term job seeker Dear Working Wise: I have been looking for a job for months now with no luck. I’ve applied for dozens of jobs and attended three job fairs, but I haven’t had a single interview. What am I doing wrong? Signed, Confused Dear Confused: It’s hard to say for sure why you are not getting any call backs. You might want to visit an Alberta Works Centre and talk to a Career and Employment Consultant about your job search. Your consultant can shed a little more light on what’s happening with your job search and give you some advice. You can find the Alberta Works Centre nearest you by visiting humanservices. alberta.ca/offices. Employers are a great source of wisdom when it comes to job search tips. I’ve attended a couple of employer job-search tips presentations and taken notes. This is not a complete list, but it seems like some job seekers are making the same mistakes over and over. You might find some of these tips helpful: • Know what the company does, what positions they are trying to fill, and what skills your target job requires. • Try to talk to someone who works in the field or for the company to get a better understanding of the job you are applying for. • Do your own research. Recruiters don’t want to field phone calls from your mom or your spouse— they want to talk to you. • Your resumé should make it clear what kind of

position you are applying for. • Be sure your resumé and cover letter are free of errors. • Don’t start with negatives in your resumé, e.g., “Although I don’t have any relevant experience, I am a hard worker.” • Stand out from the crowd by dropping off your resumé in person. • Only ask about money when they ask if you have any questions. • Create a LinkedIn profile (virtual resumé) at www.linkedin.com. • Be ready to talk about your strengths and your weaknesses. Ensure your strengths relate to the job and be ready to explain how you are working on your weaknesses. • Be prepared for behaviour-based interview questions. Look at the key skills required of the job and have a great story to highlight your use of those skills. Find mentors who can help you develop and find jobs. Reach out to your friends and family – let them know what kind of job you are looking for. For more job search tips, visit the Alberta Learning Information Service (ALIS) web site at alis.alberta.ca. ALIS has more than 50 tip sheets for people who are looking for jobs. Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise at charles.strachey@gov. ab.ca.

Obituaries & Memoriams

IWANIC: Amile Alex Iwanic, passed away peacefully in his home on Sunday, October 4th, 2015 at the age of 81 years. Amile was born to Mary and Alex Iwanic on September 28, 1934, in Macklin, SK and lived in Winter, SK. In 1945, the family moved to Lloydminster, AB. Amile married Mercene in 1964 where they raised their family. After Mercene’s passing in 1995, he moved to Calgary in 2001 to be closer to his children and grandchildren. Amile worked for 39 years at Domtar, 20 of which were as the plant manager. His career began working on the assembly line, then moved into the purchasing department, the lab, then as plant superintendent before becoming plant manager. Amile took great pride and pleasure being involved in

the community. He spent many winters coaching and managing his son Todd’s hockey teams. He was a past president and member of the Jaycee Senate of Canada and was also the president of the All Saints Ukrainian Orthodox parish. Leisure activities were important to Amile. He enjoyed curling, hockey, down-hill skiing, fishing, and bird hunting. His favorite activity was being at the lake spending time with his family and friends. Whether it was fishing, boating, water sports or just sitting around the campfire you would find Amile with a smile on his face. He was a very caring, generous, sincere and devoted husband, father and grandfather who loved his children and grandchildren dearly. He will be sorrowfully missed and always remembered. Amile leaves to mourn his passing: his son, Todd (Joelle) Iwanic and their children Matthew and Alexa; his daughter, Leahsa (Aaron) Grandberg and their children Lynden, Carly and Ella; all of Calgary, AB. He is predeceased by his wife, Mercene (Gulak) in

1995; his mother, Mary, also in 1995; his dad, Alex in 1982; and his half-brother Stan in 1996. The Funeral Service was officiated by the V. Rev. F r . S l a w o m i r Lomaszkiewicz and the Rt. Rev. Fr. Taras Krochak of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, and was held at the Knox Presbyterian Church, of Lloydminster, AB on Friday, October 9, 2015. Active pallbearers were: Michael Engel, John Gulak, Ken Gulak, Greg Gulak, Grant Tarapacki and Bernie Parchoma. Interment followed the service in the Lloydminster Cemetery. McCaw Funeral Services administered the funeral arrangements. CARD OF THANKS The Iwanic family would like to express their sincere thanks to everyone in our time of sorrow. To all our family and friends who gave us comfort and support with phone calls, flowers, cards and donations following Amile’s passing. The kindness and support was appreciated and will always be remembered.

Memoriam

DELORIS ELLEN MADDEN

December 28, 1944 - October 24, 2013

FRED FESTER MAY 24, 1924 - OCTOBER 24, 2000 Heaven’s gate swung gently open The Master called softly “Come” And you dear one, took the Master’s hand, And your work on earth was done. We’ll never cease to miss you, And shed many silent tears, Because we cannot share with you Our hopes, our joys, our fears, But one day, in God’s garden, When the Master calls us to come, You’ll be at the gate with open arms And say to us, “Welcome Home!” Forever in Our Hearts Love, Margie and All Your Family

If we could have a lifetime wish and one dream that could come true We would pray to God with all our hearts just to see and speak to you A thousand words won't bring you back We know because we've tried and neither will a million tears We know because we've cried You've left behind our broken hearts and precious memories too But we've never wanted memories We only wanted you Love: Dale, Deb & Robert Rhonda & John Kim & Tim & Families

Before finishing school, dad worked on several farms in Saskatchewan then returned home and attended the Vermilion School of Agriculture for 1 year. At the age of 18, he joined the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry and traveled to Europe. While in the army, dad wrote letters to his cousin Janet. Auntie Sandra thought dad’s letters were funny and she asked if they could be pen pals. When dad returned from the army, mom and the girls that boarded with her and Auntie Sandra in Edmonton convinced Auntie Sandra to invite dad to their home to meet him. Dad and Mom were engaged on March 21, 1969 and the wedding followed on August 23rd. Dad was employed at the

stockyards in Edmonton, farmed in Paradise Valley, dabbled in real estate and finally found his calling as a corrections officer. He worked in Fort Saskatchewan, Spy Hill in Calgary, Belmont and the Remand Centre in Edmonton. On June 25th, dad and mom chose their firstborn Nola Lynne. Bobbi Lou followed on January 23rd, 1973 and Penelope on April 30th, 1975. As a family we have many memories that we will cherish throughout the years to come and as everyone knows dad always had a story and life lesson ready to tell... Here is our top five lessons learned: 5. Be generous; Uncle David remembers several occasions while baling and also milking their dairy cows that dad showed up with a helping hand and jokes aplenty to lighten the load and Pastor Stewart often called on our dad when there were families in the community in need,

So teach her to dress up and walk right And how to wear makeup and pearls, But don’t be dismayed if she throws it aside And acts like a real Daddy’s girl. CARD OF THANKS A bouquet of thanks is extended to the Paradise Valley First Responders, Vermilion and Lloydminster Paramedics, The Doctor’s, Nurses, Hospital and Home Care Staff as well as Melissa from VitalAire. We would also like to express our gratitude for the many cards, flowers, food and donations that we received in memory of our husband, dad and grandpa. With Love, The McDougall Family
