Kids Helping Kids dance marathon supports Creative Kids programs Dance Images by BJ fundraiser once again a huge success Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

Every year, the head instructors at the Dance Images by BJ dance school ask their oldest dancers the question of whether they would be willing to put in all the time and effort needed to put together the Kids Helping Kids Dance Marathon, all with the goal of raising money to help the Creative Kids charitable organization. It’s a time-consuming effort that extends for months leading into a long day. Yet every year for the last six years, the answer has been a resounding ‘yes’. The 2018 edition of the event took place on Nov. 25 at the Dance Images studio, featuring around 100 dancers performing throughout the morning and afternoon, all with the goal of bringing in funds for a deserving charity. “This year they were definitely excited about putting it together,” said school assistant director Shauna Bzdel. “It’s quite a bit of work and since the beginning of October, we’ve been meeting and having our planning committee going over all the details, making sure we have the organized plan, business spon-

sors, sending out the pledge forms for all the dancers, getting treat bags organized for them and gathering prizes for the highest donations. But it all pays off when the day actually comes.” The end result this year was $6,500 raised for the Creative Kids charitable organization, which helps youngsters become involved in artistic pursuits like dance, music and acting. “That’s something that’s really important, and we’ve been talking to our dancers about that quite a bit, how lucky they are to be in dancing since so many kids don’t get that opportunity,” Bzdel said. “So this is a great way to even help

teach our younger dancers to be more thoughtful and giving, and appreciative over what they have, since there are kids out there that aren’t as lucky as they are.” Action got underway at 9:30 a.m. Sunday morning, November 25th, with classes rotating in from youngest to oldest every hour or so until the marathon’s conclusion at 2:15 p.m. Fundraising efforts focus on dancers receiving pledges for their participation in the marathon and have been nothing but successful over the years, to the tune of over $65,000 raised for Creative Kids through the event’s existence.

“So, it’s a really big event here at the studio since it’s important to be trying to find ways to give back to the community and teach our kids how good that can feel,” Bzdel said. “It’s always great to see things turn out as well as they did this year and knowing that we’ll be able to help out someone in need.” Dance Images by BJ is located at 117 Iroquois St. West and features dance instruction in ballet, tap, jazz, musical theatre, lyrical and hip hop.

TRADING THOUGHTS

Hybrid management model could achieve Mosaic Place potential

A late November discussion by city council/administration on the future management of Mosaic Place and Yara Centre set the stage for operation of both facilities. Yara Centre, the indoor soccer field, gymnasium and walking track, will part of the city’s by Ron Walter become recreation department complex — a not surprising decision since this facility has operated well since opening. The popular Yara Centre has come closer to paying its way than any other city operation and has done so without attracting the kind of concerns that have plagued Mosaic Place. The future Mosaic Place no longer has a management board. The new management structure involves the city operating the facility except for attracting and producing events like concerts. While that kind of hybrid management structure may seem odd, the city apparently chose a model to ensure maximum control over the operation, yet continuing

WINTER’S COMING!

with the risky business of offering entertaining and profitable concerts. During the discussion, City Manager Jim Puffalt repeatedly made an argument for retaining control over the facility to ensure necessary maintenance is performed. Under a management company, shortcuts in maintenance become a temptation to save money. Those shortcuts would return to haunt future council budgets. An argument against a management company was the potential to jack up rates for tenants like the Warriors and other ice users. That happened in Medicine Hat with a management company enraging the community by locking out the Tigers hockey team. Making sure adequate human resources and accountability prevail in Mosaic Place was another argument for the hybrid management model. The need to re-build relations with the entertainment industry was emphasized by the city manager. Several councillors were skeptical of the need before a management company is hired. For over two years, Mosaic Place has been in limbo where concert promoters were concerned. Under previous management, they knew what they were dealing with, but a city board devoted to cutting costs and reducing risks was not what promoters wanted.

They prefer to deal with managers knowledgeable about the industry and practices. They need to know the place is open for business again. Coun. Brian Swanson expressed concerns about shark-infested waters. It appears some of the sharks tested the last board. That board achieved a lot in restructuring operations and costs, and was not a failure as described numerous times at council. The failure was in not addressing a sexual harassment scandal which apparently dated back to the early years of Mosaic operation. The big question remaining is: Will the request for proposals attract the right kind of management with the ability and interest in developing events? Council will receive regular reports on financial outcome of events. Some will make money; some won’t. Hopefully, council won’t over-react to some losses. The goal should be break-even over a period of years. That could realize the potential Mosaic Place has to develop the tourist industry in Moose Jaw and re-build community pride in the facility.

By Ron Walter For Moose Jaw Express

Smaller Saskatchewan company shows stable dividend yield Investors seeking a nice dividend in a stable, slowly growing company could find their needs met by a small Saskatchewan-based operation. The Investment Services Corporation, also known as ISC, seems to fit the bill, yielding a cool five per cent on the current $16.10 share price. This corporation, controlled by the Saskatchewan Government’s 31 per cent ownership, was a Crown corporation partially privatized in 2013. When the NDP Opposition loudly criticized the move, the Saskatchewan Party released information showing the previous NDP government had plans to privatize this operation. ISC has a 20-year agreement to manage and operate registry services for Saskatchewan. The public company started in 2013 running the land titles registry, vital statistics, corporate registry, personal property registry and mineral claims registry. Since then, Saskatchewan operations have added the asbestos registry, enhanced corporate and business registry. Being a public corporation allows ISC to branch out

offering these specialized services to other agencies and governments and developing profitable opportunities. Expansion has been successful with the 2015 acquisition of ESV Services, an automated software provider to the leasing, lending industry in Ontario and Quebec. Service offerings have expanded across the globe from Malaysia to Ireland and the Arabian Peninsula. The Yukon and Nova Scotia have signed on to land titles services. Ireland has adopted corporate registry services. Other operations include Ohio, Missouri, the tax shelter islands of Guernsey and Jersey, Serbia and the United Arab Emirates. Revenue has grown from $79.1 million in 2013 to $93.6 million last year. The company projects $120 million revenue for 2018. Debt is relatively low, around $20 million. Since becoming a publicly-traded company in 2013 shares have fluctuated from an initial $16.64 to a high of $20.05 in March 2017. Offering price was $14. The outlook for ISC shares hinges on the performance

of the Saskatchewan economy. If business is booming, corporate activity and real estate action is reflected in more ISC revenues. Without economic growth, revenue, net income and dividends are stagnant and stable. Note: today’s share price is pretty much the same as when the Crown was privatized. While this is a stable operation, with some growth from expansion outside the province, the market value around $280 million is relatively small. Surprisingly, three analysts, including CIBC and RBC, follow the company. Also, surprising: about 30 per cent of shares are held by institutions. Small market values like ISC are usually shunned by institutions. CAUTION: Remember when investing, consult your adviser and do your homework before buying any security. Bizworld does not recommend investments. Ron Walter can be reached at ronjoy@sasktel.net

Jingle Bells…Jingle Bells…It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year December is upon us; one of the busiest times of the year for business owners, shoppers, party-goers and Christmas concerts. It’s hard to juggle commitments, do it all and still have time to relax and enjoy the season. For the most joyous of Joan Ritchie occasions, sometimes it’s hard EDITOR to get the joy-meter up to a noticeable level. Exhaustion seems to creep in to steal what little happiness and joy are left after all the comings and goings, shopping and socials, buying and wrapping, cooking and baking. The list never seems to end. At the end of the day, joy is laying your head down to rest for a very short reprieve before the next day of bedlam. The dilemma seems endless with the stresses associated with the season – the cost of gift purchases, decorating, entertaining and outings. It’s not just the cost alone; it’s also the time commitment it takes to shop for suitable gifts for Johnny and Sally, Susie and Tom, Martha and Moe, and the list goes on and on. If you give with the heart, the idea of giving a gift is lovely, but realistically, is it the way to go? Do we need more stuff to collect dust? The sad fact is, most people are caught in the materialistic trap. But you say, “It’s the thought that counts!” Is it? Because of practicality, the preference may be not to spend hard-earned money on stuff that will take up a place of pre-eminence in the furthermost corner of the storage room. Although cash is cold and hard, it may be one of the ways to say ‘I Love You’ to some who would rather do their own personal shopping, but there are a few other alternatives to gift-giving that might be more significant and satisfying: • We all have family and friends who live at a distance; why not surprise them with a phone call sometime during the Christmas season just to say you are thinking of them at this special time of the year? • Charities through the Christmas season are begging for donations to meet the needs of the less fortunate. Consider giving to one…Salvation Army; Riverside Mission; Secret Santa, etc. • It’s the most depressing time of the year for seniors and those house-bound for the winter months. Drop by a Seniors’ Residence and spend some time visiting; it will not only perk them up a bit, but it might put a smile on your face, too. • Do a cookie exchange. Everyone loves a variety at Christmas. This way, you only have to bake one kind, and go home with an assortment. • There is no better way to make happy memories with those you love than by sharing an experience. Saving money, in the long-term, for spending on quality time with those you love somewhere seems to be more meaningful than spending money on meaningless things to appease the seasonal expectations. “No one is going to stand up at your funeral and say, ‘She had a really expensive couch and great shoes!’”…Don’t make life about stuff!

Moose Jaw’s Partners against violence committee brings together a number of service agencies as well as local RCMP and Moose Jaw Police to work towards building a safer community.

Intimate Partner Violence (also known as domestic violence) refers to behaviour by an intimate partner or ex-partner that causes physical, sexual or psychological harm, including physical aggression, sexual coercion, psychological abuse and controlling behaviours. (World Health Organization, 2014. Violence against women fact sheet) Both women and men can be the victims of Intimate Partner Violence and it can occur in opposite-sex or same-sex partners. It involves the dynamic of power, dominance and control from the abuser to the victim. Types of Violence: 1) Physical – Examples of physical violence includes being hit, pushed, kicked, choked, slapped or being hit with an object. 2) Emotional – Examples of emotional abuse includes threats to harm victim, children or self. It can also include intimidating behaviour such as punching walls or breaking items or isolating the victim from friends and family. 3) Verbal – Examples of verbal abuse includes calling the victim names. 4) Sexual – Examples of sexual violence include forcing victim to engage in unwanted sexual activity. 5) Financial – An example of financial violence includes withholding money from the victim. 6) Religious – An example of religious violence includes ridiculing victim for their religious beliefs. Individuals who engage in domestic violence can benefit from programming that teaches them how not to be abusive and controlling in their interpersonal relationships. You choose to abuse, and you can choose NOT to abuse. The Moose Jaw Partners Against Violence Committee

Canadian farmers better off than U.S. producers By Ron Walter - For Agri-Mart Express

Farmers in Canada are better preEXPRESS pared than their U.S. counterparts to deal with an extended period of low commodity prices, says a major bank. The BMO harvest outlook, predicting a period of soft commodity prices, notes significant differences in the ability to tolerate tough times among the two countries. In the U.S., half a decade of low prices “has taken a serious toll on farmers, especially smaller high-cost operators.” American farm revenues peaked in 2012, declining by 14 per cent since and will edge lower this year. Rising wage, fertilizer, fuel and interest costs put pressure on farm profits. The report says a $12 billion federal aid package for farmers is not enough to offset costs and is aimed at

AGRIMART

LETTER TO THE

EDITOR

soybean growers. Farmland prices rose 300 per cent since 2000 but are moving sideways and could decline if farm income stays under pressure. Canadian farmers, while receiving the same world prices, have been shielded from lower commodity prices by a drop in the Canadian dollar. U.S.-based pricing has dropped but Canadian farmers’ crop revenue has increased 16 per cent since 2012, simply because of a 23 per cent reduction in the loonie’s value. Canadian farmers have an opportunity to capture markets overseas too. Farmland prices in this country, while increasing briskly, could be vulnerable as interest rates move higher.

I AM SO SORRY Dear Citizens of Moose Jaw, I Hope you will Forgive me. Last week two letters to the editor from me were published. In one of those letters, I asked our Mayor to apologize to the people of Moose Jaw for saying they were pushy and......here I am ....being disrespectful towards a huge number of citizens of my community by having said in my letter of appreciation to Councillor Swanson that I believe Moose Jaw would be a better place to be if everybody was thinking just “ like... me?” You have heard me talk a lot over time about the well-being of our community and here I am insinuating that our City would be a better place if everybody would think a certain way or think like certain people. I wish that you may all forgive me for my unfortunate remarks; I hope, Mr. Swanson, that you will forgive me for having included such a disrespectful statement in my speech at council and in my letter of appreciation to you, in regard to your dedication to our community that I admire greatly. As many of you have found over time, I do at times suffer from a “mental health issue”.

I can lose it very fast once in a while.... and in many ways.... about many things. I am absolutely not proud of myself at all when I end up communicating my ideas and frustration in such unwholesome ways. Passions, at times, may make us do or say things intentionally or not; our actions may end up being hurtful to someone or to many. It is for sure, again in my wish list of the years, to keep improving the way I learn lessons and the way I communicate. I appreciate the fact that our Mayor, all Members of Council and Administration do support better communication amongst all of us. The campaign that City Hall has started about our Waste Master Plan Management is a good example of how our council & administration are working to facilitate the exchange of ideas through public presentation and survey on the web site. I think everyone should make the effort ( now or after the holiday) to take the time to share your questions and ideas about all that. So here I am, So Sorry for the harm I may have caused. I am at a loss for words, asking for your Compassion,.... Best Wishes to you all. Michel Labonte

WDM annual Kids Secret Shopping event offers youngsters a chance to shop for Christmas gifts Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

Secrecy was the order of the day during a recent event at the Western Development Museum. So clandestine were the activities that a meeting hall had a sign excluding a large part of the populace from ever seeing what was happening behind closed doors. But when patrons of the event emerged from their activities, it was all smiles â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and with Christmas gifts in tow. The WDM hosted their annual Kids Secret Shopping day at the local museum on Saturday, Nov. 24, featuring a day full of activities for both children and their parents. Things kicked off with the Breakfast with Mrs. Claus and Bake Sale, which included Santaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better-half chatting with and taking pictures with youngsters. The event was hosted by the Girl Guides and acts as a major fundraiser for the local childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For them, this is one of the biggest fundraisers they have and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become an annual tradition; we have people coming to buy tickets well in advance and then staying for the Secret Shopping,â&#x20AC;? said Education Coordinator of WDM, Karla Rasmussen. The Kids Secret Shopping portion is exactly as described: youngsters have an opportunity to shop for Christmas gifts without their parents around to snoop on what they might be getting. Hence the large â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;No Parents Allowedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sign on the

Rasmussen said, adding that more than 200 kids went through the doors throughout the day. They were greeted by tables full of potential gifts with a wide range of selection and price. The youngsters then worked through their Christmas list with the help of WDM volunteers and had the gifts wrapped before heading back out to their parents â&#x20AC;&#x153;The children come out of the room beaming with pride because they did everything themselves and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful thing to see,â&#x20AC;? Rasmussen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really grown for us at the museum over the years, so even though itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a busy day, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth it because of what it means to the kids.â&#x20AC;? The event also featured a special Shortwave to Santa station operated by the Moose Jaw Amateur Radio Club, featuring a special link to the North Pole that allowed kids to chat with the Jolly Olâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Elf himself. The busy day is a major fundraiser for the WDM, with proceeds going to support the various ongoing programs at the museum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the proceeds benefit the museum and all of the items we have for sale are from our gift shop,â&#x20AC;?

City manager Jim Puffalt delivered his council-requested report on potential Downtown Facility and Field House strategic directions, bringing forward five recommendations that were all passed and accepted by council â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not without significant debate. Following councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decisions: Moose Jaw Downtown and Soccer/Field-House Facilities Inc. will be wound down over the next year and control of the facilities will become line facilities of the City of Moose Jaw. YaraCentre and staff will transfer to the parks and recreation department. Mosaic Place will act as a stand-alone facility and a third-party management and operational company will be sought with the intent of signing a five-year contract. Mosaic Place staff will transfer to the management company. The city will actively pursue events for Mosaic Place, with the city manager having purchasing authority up to $150,000 and any show over that amount going to executive committee for review and approval. Quarterly reports will be provided to council for both facilities. The decisions bring about massive changes to how the two facilities are governed, with the beleaguered DFFH board of directors dissolved once and for all and a complete revision in how things will be governed going forward. Coun. Dawn Luhning called for a motion to accept all five aspects of the report. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do believe this is the appropriate move for these facilities at this time,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had their trouble over the years, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to get a handle on all the good things those facilities are able to offer the community. When these facilities were first a dream in this city, it divided the community and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to stop that and have something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to create a little bit of good. I think those facilities and the staff, and the city,

Coun. Brian Swanson voiced his opposition to the plan in itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entirety, with a major point of contention being the idea of third-party management, based on prior experience with such companies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The idea that third party is going to somehow turn a miracle for Moose Jaw is a bit naive because their focus is making money, and the money they make doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stay in Moose Jaw, it goes back to Philadelphia and New Jersey (where the managers are from),â&#x20AC;? Swanson said, adding that the services they provide are very expensive and could provide much more negative than positive to the current situation. Coun. Crystal Froese took the opposite stance, referencing a host of research she conducted involving conversations with other cities featuring third-party management of major recreational facilities. She pointed to the city of Penticton, B.C. and the South Okanagan Events Centre as an example, where a third-party system has been so successful the 5,000-seat facility is on the verge of being paid off after opening in 2008, in addition to bringing in $20 million a year in revenue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That Events Centre is completely transparent; all their documents are completely open to the public and city council is involved in their process,â&#x20AC;? Froese said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very, very healthy environment and I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see why we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the same thing here. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what the citizens expect from this investment and they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t getting it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the saying that doing the same thing over and over again and expecting the same result is insanity.

Well, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of what this has felt like,â&#x20AC;? she continued. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really believe this motion will get us to where we should have been right from the start. It is absolutely the right decision for our city and I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to see results from third-party management within 12 months. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re that professional; they are in it to win and do as much as they can for the community and on behalf of the community. The whole idea that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just there for digging in our pockets is not true, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not factual... their businesses wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t survive, no one would use them if that were the case.â&#x20AC;? Coun. McMann also voiced his opposition to the entirety of the plan, saying the lack of parking and design and layout of the building and conference facilities makes attracting clients difficult to begin with and that the costs of a third-party system would be prohibitive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The report presented to us tonight says the number one objective is bringing responsibility and governance back to city council, and with a third-party manager reporting directly to the city manager, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see how thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accomplished,â&#x20AC;? McMann said, adding that he also disagreed with how third-party management would enhance accountability and share resources and staffing. The first and fourth motions both passed 4-3, with Swanson and McMann universally opposed to the recommendations, Coun. Heather Eby voting against the dissolution of DFFH Inc. and Coun. Chris Warren against the city manager pursuing events for Mosaic Place. **** Council approved the replacement of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s payroll / human resource system with a modern, cloud-based system provided by the company Ceridian at a cost of $80,400. The base of the current system had been in use since 1992, with upgrades in 2010 and 2013 acting as stopgaps to keep things running. Over the last year and half, the system has run into major difficulties, to the point producing payrolls has been compromised. The request â&#x20AC;&#x201C; presented by city comptroller Sandy Campbell â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was made with the goal of finding and implementing a replacement before a catastrophic failure. The motion passed unanimously. **** Coun. Swanson presented a motion for the City of Moose Jaw to voice opposition to the change in the provincial municipal election day from the fourth Wednesday in October to the second Wednesday in November, with potential inclement weather the chief concern. The motion passed unanimously. **** Council received the schedule for upcoming budget committee meetings, with the first meeting taking place Dec. 3 and featuring the presentation of the budget. Following meetings take place on Dec. 5 and Dec. 12, both at 5:30 p.m., and on Dec. 17 following the regular meeting of city council. 20th Annual Jays Jaunt to Denver

Hunger in Moose Jaw celebrates 25 years and thanks community for tremendous support Sasha-Gay Lobban

Hunger in Moose Jaw celebrated its 25th anniversary, thanking the community for its unrelenting support over the years. The organization hosted a ‘Come and Go Tea’ on Friday, November 23. Community members, organizations, past and present volunteers and staff came out to celebrate with Hunger in Moose Jaw. Moose Jaw North’s MLA Warren Michelson was also in attendance. During the celebration, individuals reflected on the impact the organization has had on the community through its many programs. Hunger in Moose Jaw continues to make an impact on the community where approximately 300 students in schools across the city benefit from lunches daily. The organization’s mission is to support children and their families through education and nutritional programming that nurtures their potential. Hunger in Moose Jaw’s programs include: Child Nutrition, Headstart Preschool, The Good Food Box, Community Gardens. Community Kitchens and Junior Chef. Executive Director of Hunger in Moose Jaw, Sharla Sept says these programs would not have been possible without the overwhelming support of the community and staff. “Hunger in Moose Jaw started off with the delivery of lunches and subsequently moving into several other programs that we have. It is great to see how the community has embraced and supported Hunger in Moose Jaw over the years through thick and thin. Being here for 25 years also shows how great the staff is and how they’ve kept everything going. It’s an honor to be part of an organization like this.” She says the ‘Come and Go Tea’ was a way to include the community in their milestone 25 years celebration and commended organizations and individuals who have made a difference with their support. “We don’t exist unless we have community support. The number of people who have showed up to celebrate with us is a testament to that. This organization belongs to the community. I want to thank all of the community organizations that we’re partnered with, businesses and individuals who make a difference by volunteering, donating and all they do to help,” Sept also thanked the staff at Hunger in Moose Jaw for their hard work and dedication to the organization. “We also have an amazing staff who are the key to these programs and the best staff I can work

with. There are nine (9) staff members currently. One of our staff members is also celebrating 20 years with us.” For its 25th year, Hunger in Moose Jaw renovated its Headstart Preschool program that was in need of upgrades. “This year, we were able to renovate the Pre-school. It has been in need of a makeover for a long time. It had been almost 20 years since it was established, and we got to do some renovations; painting, new carpeting and other things to make it brand new for the kids.” Sept also talked about other programs that she says continue to expand. “We’ve also been able to expand our Community Program’s Kitchen a little more. We have two Community Kitchens coordinators instead of just one. Also, our Good Food Box program keeps expanding so that’s fantastic. The Community Gardens was full again this year with about 140 spots

filled and our Pre-school continues to be filled every year and has a wait-list.” Karen Langton, who has been working at Hunger in Moose Jaw for 20 years as a pre-school teacher says it has been a great experience working with the organization and to see how it has evolved over 20 years. “I absolutely love it here. Some days, I can’t believe I get paid to

do this because this is a passion of mine. It has been awesome. Children are our greatest investment and everything we put into them will make our future better. They are worth everything we get to do for them,” Langton said. “I just want to express a big ‘thank you’ to the community for its support. We have so many organizations and individuals who come out to help us all the time and we appreciate them.” Hunger in Moose Jaw is a non-profit, community based, charitable organization that has served the community of Moose Jaw since 1993. The organization was created as a direct result of a community initiative. In the fall of 1992, a series of town hall meetings were held to address issues of hunger and poverty and how they affect specific individuals, as well as the wellness of the entire community. A broad cross-section of this community is still represented on their Board of Directors. Hunger in Moose Jaw is entrusted with resources from governments, foundations and roughly 30 other businesses and organizations in the community.

John Howard Society recognizes community partners and celebrates diamond year Sasha-Gay Lobban

The John Howard Society of Saskatchewan (JHSS) hosted its annual Restorative Justice luncheon on Thursday, November 22 where the organization recognized community partners for their impact in Moose Jaw and Area. JHSS assists individuals who are at risk or are involved in the criminal justice process by providing prevention, intervention, support services and advocacy. This year, the John Howard Society is celebrating 60 years and has launched celebrations to mark this milestone across the province. Kicking off its 60th, the JHSS recognized some important partners in Moose Jaw for their contributions, some of whom were featured in a video that was debuted at the luncheon which shows the impact the JHSS has had in Moose Jaw, Saskatoon, Regina and Prince Albert. Jaime Boldt, Acting CEO of the John Howard Society of Saskatchewan said it was important to recognize and highlight community partners who have made significant impact in their community. “Because our organization is very community-oriented and the city of Moose Jaw is a very supportive branch, we like to use this opportunity annually to acknowledge our community partners and celebrate them,” said Boldt. Boldt said the Society’s theme this year is “Inspiring Innovation” as it celebrates 60 years in existence. “The John Howard Society is also celebrating its diamond year, 60th anniversary. To mark this milestone, we created a video that captures the essence of what we do and the impact we have on our province. We are debuting that this week with showings in Saskatoon, Regina and of course in Moose Jaw. The theme this year is “Inspiring Innovation” and I think John Howard always does that throughout the province— always looking for new

These are new for us in Moose Jaw so we’re looking forward to continuing our work in the community.” At the luncheon, the John Howard Society also recognized Andrea Dyck, Mediation Case Worker in Moose Jaw for long service. In addition, Lyle Helland who recently passed was honored posthumously for his dedication to the John Howard Society. His wife, Frani Helland and grand-daughter Amber White were present. A bench was dedicated in memory of Lyle, to be installed at the front of the John Howard Society, located at 15 Hochelaga St W. Some of the programs and services that the John Howard Society offers in Moose Jaw are: Adult Alternative Measures Program: Alternative Measures refers to means other than the formal court process for adults charged with certain offenses as approved by the Ministry of Justice and the Crown Prosecutor. Extrajudicial Sanctions Program for Youth: Extrajudicial Sanctions Program provides an alternative to the traditional court process for youth charged with offences set out as part of the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Community Justice Forum for Adult and Youth: This

process is based on the principles of restorative justice and community healing. A Community Justice Forum is a safe environment in which an offender, victim and their families along with supporters, relevant community members and professionals are brought together under the guidance of trained John Howard facilitators. Fine Option Program for Adult and Youth: Fine Option provides an alternative to paying out of pocket for certain fines. People are registered through one of JHSS’ branches and then placed in a volunteer work arrangement with a non-profit community organization where the fine is worked off. Community Service Order Program for Adult and Youth: A Community Service Order is a court-imposed sentence. An individual is ordered by the court to perform a specified number of hours of community service. The individual is assessed, placed at a non-profit community organization and monitored by a placement agent. Stop-Lift Program for Adult and Youth: The Stop-Lift Program is designed specifically for individuals who have been charged with theft or property offences. The primary focus of the program is educational and informational, using a structured group process. Crime Prevention Program for Youth: The Crime Prevention Program is offered to elementary schools for children attending grade four to grade eight. The program is aimed at reducing the likelihood of children becoming involved in criminal activity. Community Collaboration and Engagement: John Howard Society caseworkers are also involved with several committees and community initiatives. Staff deliver educational presentations that include topics regarding the history of John Howard Society, services and programs offered by JHSS and information on the justice system.

Manufacturing Moves Saskatchewan Forward There were things to celebrate in our city and our province last week, in spite of the Calgary Stampeders winning the Grey Cup. The Vanier Vikings won the High School Boys Provincial 4A Volleyball Championship. Congratulations to all the players and coaches. Saskatchewan manufacturing was also celebrated this past week during Saskatchewan Manufacturing Week. In the past decade, manufacturing shipments increased by 54 per cent. That is certainly something to celebrate. Manufacturing plays a key role in our Saskatchewan economy, accounting for seven per cent of the province’s gross domestic product. The manufacturing industry employs about 28,000 people working in our rural and urban communities. In 2017, manufacturing shipments totaled over $16 billion. Saskatchewan manufacturers have achieved many world firsts – in everything from satellite communications technology and dryland farming equipment to in-road scales for the trucking industry. Our manufacturing industries are more diverse than many of us realize. Key clusters include agriculture machinery, transportation and industrial equipment; food, crop and beverage processing; wood, steel and plastic products; and chemical manufacturing. Emerging clusters include aerospace and defense mechanisms, specialty automotive products, UAV’s (unmanned aerial vehicles - aircraft piloted by remote control or onboard computers); electronics and instrumentation. Saskatchewan’s aerospace and defence companies have proven themselves to be world-class suppliers to international space agencies as well as aerospace and defence contractors. From pickup truck lids and front-end steel grilles to specialized military vehicles, our manufacturers are expanding into the specialty automotive and automotive accessory industry. Saskatchewan food and beverage products have become internationally recog-

nized. Our $4.5-billion food and beverage processing industry includes over 300 processors and 5,100 employees, exporting flour and bakery products, meat products, fruit-based products, certified organic foods, specialty foods and nutraceuticals. The food and beverage processing industry is responsible for about 30% of our province’s total manufacturing output. Saskatchewan’s manufacturers are innovative and entrepreneurial, and the Government of Saskatchewan wants to encourage their success. Incentives that offer competitive advantages include: • a low corporate income tax on manufacturing and processing exporter and processing profits—Saskatchewan offers the lowest in Canada; • the Saskatchewan Commercial Innovation Incentive—the first “patent box” style incentive of its kind in North America; • manufacturing and processing exporter hiring tax incentives; and • provincial tax exemptions for eligible machinery, equipment and materials. The efforts of our manufacturing industry, and the collaboration of our government are bringing about successful achievement. Wholesale trade in Saskatchewan jumped 11.4 per cent in September 2018 (seasonally adjusted) when compared to September 2017, the second highest percentage increase among the provinces. By comparison, national growth was up 3.8 per cent year-over-year (seasonally adjusted). The value of wholesale trade totaled $2.3 billion in September 2018, up from $2.1 billion in September 2017. During my tenure as Legislative Secretary to the Minister of the Economy, I visited a number of Saskatchewan manufacturers across this province. I was always impressed by their vision, determination and resourcefulness. Our Government will stand up for Saskatchewan by continuing to encourage and support that vision and determination for the positive growth of the manufacturing sector.

Wotherspoon calls for removal of PST on construction projects Matthew Gourlie

Former provincial New Democrat interim leader Trent Wotherspoon is concerned about the lack of activity in the construction and building sectors in the province. Wotherspoon was in Moose Jaw recently where he met with eight local business owners. They met to discuss how the implementation of the Provincial Sales Tax (PST) to construction contracts and other service contracts in relation to real property in the 2017-18 provincial budget has affected their businesses and their bottom lines. “The PST has been really devastating for the construction industry in our province, but really devastating here in Moose Jaw,” Wotherspoon said. “One thing that was pointed out to me by these home builders and sub-trades is the amount of stress that this places on their operations and on workers who have lost employment, and really, the impact on the local economy. Something that stood out that I think is disturbing is that, in 2012 Moose Jaw had 120 brand new homes being built; this year there’s 10.” That lack of new house builds is obviously partly a by-product of the economy and Saskatchewan’s slowing population

growth. After years of two per cent population growth, the provincial population only grew 1.2 per cent in 2017. In a reversal of a trend, more people moved away from the province, as opposed to those who moved in. Wotherspoon said that building permits province-wide were down 20 per cent this year. The residential sector is also down 30 per cent this year. “Obviously, that number is much higher in Moose Jaw -- but it’s just such a short-sighted and damaging approach,” Wotherspoon said. “We have an economy that was weakened, and we have a government that is making things worse instead of better in a weak economy by putting the brakes on that economy and creating job loss instead of creating jobs and weakening the investment that we need right now.” While resource prices are down, Wotherspoon said he doesn’t accept that as an excuse for what he views as an under-performing economy. “The resource sector is down, and the hard workers and businesses of Moose Jaw don’t control the price of oil,” Wotherspoon said. “The problem is that the government is making deliberate choic18121PS0 18121PS1

that means for them, their families and their operations, but also for their employees or those that they’ve lost. “Our construction industry is really reeling right now, and the job loss has been real.” The PST on construction has also hit civic governments hard. The government had already cut municipalities funding -- known as grants-in-lieu. The province had initially decided to redirect $36 million from the grants-in-lieu -- typically paid in place of municipal taxes -- back into the province’s hands before deciding to cap the reduction at 30 per cent. The City of Moose Jaw had $984,704 loss of grants-in-lieu from their 2017 opTrent Wotherspoon was in Moose Jaw erating budget. speaking to concerned home builders That hurts even more, given the six per and others in the construction industry. cent PST is now applied to major capitol projects -- such as the $117 million, 20es that is making this economy worse; year water main replacement project that that is making job-loss worse.

Hunger in Moose Jaw’s ‘I Bought A Lunch Campaign’ surpasses $50,000 goal Sasha-Gay Lobban

Hunger in Moose Jaw is once again thanking the community for its overwhelming support as they conclude the 8th annual ‘I Bought A Lunch’ campaign. The campaign which ran for 50 days was able to raise $53,000! The organization had set their goal at $50,000 in 50 days but surpassed their target as it concluded on Tuesday, November 27. Hunger in Moose Jaw says donations have kept on trickling in, even after the deadline. Executive Director of Hunger in Moose Jaw, Sharla Sept says this has been another great year for the campaign. The ‘I Bought A Lunch’ campaign raises money each year to continue to provide lunches for schools in the Prairie South and Holy Trinity Divisions. Over 300 lunches are packaged everyday, consisting of sandwiches, fruits or vegetables and a snack and delivered to the schools in the city. Over 60,000 lunches are provided annually. Sept has expressed gratitude to the community and local

businesses for making the campaign a successful one. “Hunger in Moose Jaw would like to say an extremely grateful thank you to the community of Moose Jaw again this year, for supporting us and helping us to reach our goal. We also want to thank the banks and local business-

es that raised funds for us. Without community support we would cease to exist, so we are very thankful for every dollar we received,” Sept said. She noted that, despite some challenges this year which posed a risk to donations, the community was still able to put in a lot of effort to help the organization reach its goal. “This year was unusual in that we usually receive many donations through the mail; yet this year, the numbers were down due to impending Canada Post strikes, but many community members took the opportunity to come visit us in person,” she said. “We love when people just pop by the office and want to know a little bit more about what we do. Oftentimes, many don’t know that we have other programs besides the Child Nutrition Program. Providing that information and being able to meet many of our supporters in general was definitely a highlight this year.”

City looking for residents to talk trash with them Matthew Gourlie

Local residents are rarely shy when it comes to trashtalking the City on issues like curbside garbage pick-up and blue-bin recycling. Yet, given the chance to talk trash at the City of Moose Jaw’s public solid waste consultation held recently, only 10 people made the effort to attend. The good news for interested Moose Javians is that they still have a chance to be involved in the consultation process. “A big part of these consultation processes — to make sure that the plan works for the community — is to make sure we get a lot of public feedback,” said Lauren Quan, project engineer for Tetra Tech, an international engineering consulting firm that has been working with the City for a little over a year. “It’s incredibly important for residents to provide feedback to the City. The only way that the City can know what people want is for the people to tell them. There are a lot of options for very expensive infrastructure that you could build, but then if no one is going to use it, it’s just a waste.

“A big part of these consultation processes - to make sure that the plan works for the community - is to make sure we get a lot of public feedback,” - Lauren Quan, project engineer “We want to have a good understanding of what the priorities are of the community,” Quan continued. “So that means when we’re making decisions about programs — pining them against each other and figuring out what to invest in — how should the City make that decision and what should they prioritize within those decision-making processes. Ultimately, what we’re working towards is developing a framework so decisions can be made now, but also in eight or 10 years. We want to make sure that there is enough of a framework so decisions can be consistent as they are made throughout the years.” The City is creating a Solid Waste Management Master Plan (SWMMP) and are looking for guidance from the public. Both the City and the consultants stressed that at this stage thay are taking in information and trying to discern what the priorities are of the community. External stakeholders like the Chamber of Commerce, the school divisions, the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Hospital, Saskatchewan Polytechnic and haulers like Loraas, Waste Management and Crown Shred & Recycling Inc. are also part of the information gathering at this stage. The consultation is focused on six main areas: recycling, composting, waste reduction, disposal, collection and education/communication.

Lauren Quan, project engineer for Tetra Tech, speaks at “Let’s Talk Trash”, the City’s solid waste public consultation. Matthew Gourlie photograph “The master plan is a document that will help the City to essentially plot a course of action for the next 5-10 years to figure out what kind of infrastructure, what kind of programs make sense for the City to invest in and ultimately what the City can do to best service the residents of the community,” Quan said. In addition to the Thursday meeting, the City engaged the public at the Moose Jaw Warriors hockey game the following night. A public online survey is available on the City’s website allowing all residents an opportunity to provide feedback on the future of solid waste management in the city over the next couple of weeks before the results are compiled in December. One of the main reasons for the consultation is the fact that the landfill will reach the end of its life-cycle within 3-5 years. Commercial garbage is the main factor in the amount of garbage that ends up in the landfill from year to year and prone to large fluctuations as factors like a big demolition job — say the tearing down of Union Hospital for example — can change how much goes into a landfill. “Residential waste stays pretty steady around 10,000 tonnes a year,” Quan said. “Commercial fluctuates quite a lot. It depends on whether other municipalities are bringing waste here, how much economic activity there is. It often depends on if there’s a really big demolition project — if a big building is being demolished that tends to create a little bit of a spike.” While they are confident in their ballpark 3-5-year estimate, a more precise long-term projection is hard to pin

down with so many variables. “There are definitely methods to extend the life of landfills to a certain extent, but this landfill is quite close to the end of its life,” Quan said. “So, it’s a question of if it makes sense to make an investment now to try to squeeze out an extra couple of years or does it make sense to move to a new facility that will be more efficient that will be larger which could be a regional facility and can be built to best practices; because this one was built quite a long time ago.” Quan explained that modern landfills build smaller cells that last for approximately five years at a time. That makes them easier to manage — compared to a massive hole that will have water pooling in it — and more economical, allowing a municipality to budget and build the landfill in stages over a century rather than being one massive infrastructure project. Modern landfills are lined with a clay liner or other geo-synthetic materials. The water moves from the top to the bottom and collects the contaminants in the garbage as it passes — which is called leachate. It is then collected at the bottom by the liner and then pulled out and treated via pipes. Modern landfills are also better able to monitor the gasses that can be trapped in a landfill and pulled to the side that can then be combustible. The current landfill doesn’t have any of those modern environmental considerations and is therefore going to be more difficult to manage even after it closes. “The site is about 100 years old. It has no clay or geo-synthetic liner system. It is very much a legacy site. It is very much a risky site, requiring mediation and risk-control decades into the future,” said Darrin Stephanson, manager of utilities at the City. As landfills become more highly regulated in the province, more rural communities are finding it is preferable for them to ship their garbage. At the local landfill, there is a $20/tonne premium tipping fee for out-of-community garbage. Local garbage is subject to a $69/tonne tipping fee as opposed to $89/tonne for out of town. There is also the option of looking into creating a regional landfill that may service multiple communities, but that could also result in a longer hauling distance for area companies and Moose Jaw citizens. “There was some indication that the regional landfill — given the haul distances — would maybe be the preferred choice, but that’s high-level. The step in the process we are in is: what do we want to do with the waste? It’s fine to say ‘landfill’ but there’s a whole spectrum of options that you can do to manage your waste. That’s the discussion we’re trying to have at this stage. Get that information, compile it and form a long-term plan,” said Josh Mickleborough, director of engineering for the City. The City’s online survey is available at http://surveys.insightrix.com/moosejawwastesurvey.

Dipstick for ice fishing fun

Sea Cadets: Sea Survival Training

One of the trade show vendors at Canadian Western Agribition was selling what could be a cool Christmas gift for ice fishermen. Called a Dipstick, the cone-shaped piece of plastic is placed in the ice and filled with 12 cans of the fisherman’s favourite beverage. The Dipstick is guaranteed to keep the beverage cool, yet not freeze the drinks. All for just $42. When one can is pulled out, the next one will pop up to the top. One woman visiting the booth exclaimed: “You mean my husband is drinking when he’s ice fishing!

Have you ever "put together" a gift? It's easy. Just collect a few things that go well together and place them nicely in a container, such as a bag, box or basket. Use your imagination to decorate your gift: a bow, a flower or card would add a nice touch. If you want to be a little fancy, add a piece of tissue paper or make a nest of shredded paper in the bottom of your gift container. Very nice!

Mosaic Place to heavily pursue concerts, major events City manager to lead quest to drastically improve number of events at local facility Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

Mosaic Place will be a much busier place if the plan put in place by Moose Jaw city council at their most recent meeting reaches fruition. In addition to deciding to bring in a third-party manager for the 4,500-seat events and entertainment complex, council also passed a plan to allow city manager Jim Puffalt to actively pursue major events, with the goal of bringing in at least one show a month outside of two months in the summer, for a minimum of 10 elite shows a year. The day after the decision, Puffalt had a message for concert and event promoters. “Be prepared for a message from us, because we’re ready,” he said in a press release “Mosaic Place was created not only as home for the Moose Jaw Warriors of the Western Hockey League, but as a venue that could host several other entertainment and sporting events every year. Our team is skilled and able to look after your every need to ensure a successful event.” Puffalt comes from a place of experience when it comes to making such a statement – as city manager in Estevan, he was responsible for bringing in Motley Crue during their 2013 tour, a surprising coup given the size of the community and stature of one of the 1980s most popular bands. “That was a tough sell because I had to convince people we could spend that much money, but there was no question in my mind that with classic rock and bands everyone recognizes, if you can get them to come, with the ticket sales and food and beverage and merch, that’s where your money comes from,” Puffalt said. That’s the plan for Mosaic Place going forward. “We’re looking forward to seeing what we can do,” Puffalt continued. “There was some activity; it’s not like

there wasn’t, but sometimes you have to get out there and get at it and let people know you’re available to do things. I’m not trying to be critical of anything that happened before, but from doing it before, I know some of the pitfalls and some of things you have to do to bring a show in. So, we’re pretty excited about it.” The idea that the previous DFFH board wasn’t trying to bring in shows was a source of concern for Coun. Brian Swanson during the council meeting, as he pointed to the presence of the Brandt Centre and Conexus Arts Centre in Regina as major competition for any shows in Moose Jaw. Add in the weak Canadian dollar and economic downturn in western Canada, in general, and attracting shows, becomes far more difficult, he said. Puffalt aims to work around that by promoting just how good the 2011-opened Mosaic Place actually is. “We do have the nicest facility in southern Saskatchewan,” Puffalt said. “It has great acoustics and similar seat size to the Brandt Centre and we certainly beat the Conexus Arts Centre, so we’re a great location for a show.” With that, the key going forward will be getting word

out that Moose Jaw is willing to go above and beyond to bring shows in. “I’ve been talking to people for the better part of two months and saying that ‘I think we’re back, I think we’re back’ and now that I’ve got confirmation that we are, I think I had a lot more interest this week than before; it was ‘when you guys are ready, let us know, we’ll get at ‘er’,” Puffalt said. He pointed to the recent Celtic Thunder show as an example of just what he plans to offer and how proficient the Mosaic Place staff are at meeting the needs not only of incoming acts, but also long-term tenants. “The Celtic Thunder show, we hit every mark we were supposed to; we were right on time and we went above and beyond on customer service,” Puffalt said. “I took the band down to YaraCentre so they could kick the soccer ball around. Those are things you have to do if you want to have that reputation as a first-class place. You bend over backwards and you treat them like rock stars because that’s what they are.” The Mosaic Place team also quickly and efficiently set up the Celtic Thunder stage the night after a Warrior game and had things torn down in time for a Midget AAA Generals game the following evening. “So that shows just how good they are at what they do and how quickly they can get things done,” Puffalt said. Mosaic Place has played host to concerts since opening, from Carrie Underwood to John Mellencamp, Alice Cooper, Chicago, Alan Jackson and others. Mosaic Place has also been the site of several major sporting events including the 2015 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, 2014 Telus Cup and 2012 Canada Cup of Curling. Mosaic Place will once again host the national Scotties Tournament of Hearts in February 2020.

Brian Hendrickson appointed as a Provincial Court judge in Moose Jaw Matthew Gourlie

Brian Hendrickson, at the age of 62 and after more than 35 years as a lawyer, has been appointed as a judge to the Provincial Court in Moose Jaw. “It was a huge surprise, but really humbling,” Hendrickson said. “It’s a huge honour. I’m not just saying that. It is a huge honour.” Following the call to the bar, Hendrickson had a stream of well-wishers offering him congratulations. Judge Hendrickson received a law degree from the University of Saskatchewan in 1981. He began his career as an articling clerk with the Court of Queen’s Bench, Chief Justice’s office in Regina. He went on to work as a lawyer with Rendek McCrank in Regina and then with the Ministry of Justice as a Prosecutor, Director of Sheriff’s Services, Senior Crown Prosecutor and most recently as the Regional Crown Prosecutor in Moose Jaw. “Judge Hendrickson is an exceptional appointment to the bench,” said Justice Minister and Attorney General Don Morgan. “He has made valuable contributions to the legal communi-

“My logic was, that around 50, that was a nice age to be thinking about such things. You’re in a nice position to hopefully be a judge of character, so I had applied before and had my name in for a few years,” Hendrickson said. While the judicial appointment didn’t come immediately, Hendrickson said that he was “perfectly content in practice for 30 years.”

a designation of “highly recommended”, “recommended” or “not recommended”. The list of the Council’s recommendations is provided to the Minister of Justice. When a new judge is required, the appointment is made from this list. Hendrickson first put his name forward to the Saskatchewan Judicial Council more than a decade ago.

It’s time to add more letters to your TEAM by Dr. Steven Heidinger, Moose Jaw Chiropractor We have all heard the phrase, “There is no “I” in TEAM”. It is especially popular in sport; however, it is used in any circumstance when it is important to remember that no one person is any more important than anyone of the other team members. For the best outcomes, individuals must always set aside personal egos and do what is best for advancing the team. When considering your own health and the health of your family, do you take on this sort of team-approach philosophy? Are there multiple members on your team that contribute to your well-being? And if there are, does any one member take on the captain’s role or does each member share equally the task of keeping you at your best? Most Canadians identify with the traditional physician-centre model of primary health care delivery; the family physician being the usual first contact and gatekeeper for your health care needs. However, this “non-team” approach may not be in the patient’s best interests. Nearly 15 years ago, Ontario sought a different approach to the delivery of health services that very much emphasized a model that was more patient-centred, a team approach. At a time when the money was becoming increasingly scarce for health care and health inequities were very evident, the traditional method of

Hendrickson has been an active member of the legal community in Saskatchewan and has published legal articles and lectured on many occasions. He has been a Bencher with the Law Society of Saskatchewan and received his Queen’s Counsel designation in 2008. Judge Hendrickson is replacing Judge Douglas Kovatch who is moving to the Provincial Court in Regina.

health care delivery was being questioned as to whether it was suiting the needs of Canadians. Health care reform resulted in the development of 3 types of team models that put the patient more at the centre of care. Community Health Centres (CHCs), Family Health Teams (FHTs) and Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinics (NPLCs) were created in Ontario with the idea that patients’ needs were best met with multi-disciplinary collaboration. Physicians, nurse practitioners, dieticians, pharmacists, counsellors and even chiropractors were part of many of these teams, all working under one roof, to ensure you had access to the best care. While these models differed mostly in terms of how the care-givers were paid, they all were similar in that they promoted patient-centred care that was in the “right place, at the right time, and by the right health-care practitioner”. While there were many positive outcomes for the patient and health inequities lessened, the team approach was slow to catch on. Most provinces, unfortunately, have been slow to latch on to this team approach or have not even considered it at all. If the team approach has been shown to be beneficial to one’s health, and if government is unwilling to advance this notion, it is up to you to create your own team, with you as the captain. While there is a good chance your team may be spread out across the city instead of under one roof, you can still create a team philosophy as long as there is continued communication and each one of your caregivers respects the other team members and the captain (you). While there is no “I” in TEAM, there can be an MD, an NP, a DC as well as a number of other healthful letters.

YMCA celebrates Peace Week Sasha-Gay Lobban

The YMCA presented two locals with Peace Medals to mark Peace Week across Canada. On Thursday, November 22, the YMCA hosted a yoga class and a Peace Medal ceremony to commemorate this important week. “The YMCA is a long-time supporter and advocate of peace in all its forms. For a week each year, YMCAs across Canada offer special activities that encourage the exploration of the many dimensions of peace from a personal, community and international perspective,” said Kristin Bochek, Fitness and Special Events Coordinator at the YMCA.

Vivian Gauvin (left) receives a Peace Medal from YMCA’s Kristin Bochek.

For the month of November, the YMCA focused on several peace initiatives throughout the community. “We worked hard throughout the month of November to focus on and celebrate all of the hard work that not only we do here within the walls of our YMCA but that our community does as well outside of the YMCA. We visited all of our Childcare centers, BASP program and Y Boys and Y Girls program and discussed peace, what it means to them and how it impacts all of our lives on a daily basis,” she explained. “We built a YMCA Peace Chain, created a bridge between our world now and our vision of a perfect world with a YMCA Bridge of Peace and handed out PEACE It Forward tokens to encourage our community to #actforpeace.” YMCA Peace Medals were also presented to Kelli Lemstra and Vivian Gauvin for their contributions as peacemakers in the community. The peace medals were presented following the Yoga for Peace class on Thursday, November 22. The YMCA Peace Medal is presented at YMCA’s across the country every year to recognize individuals and groups who without any special resources, status, wealth or position demonstrate a commitment to building peace within their community. One of the peace medal recipients Kelli Lemstra created an app called ‘The Daily Difference’ that is a resource and a tool for youth just like her to access resources to help manage important issues such as anxiety, depression, bullying, and much more.

Yoga for Peace at the YMCA. Meanwhile, Vivian Gauvin demonstrated the values of peace with her tireless efforts to build inclusive, respectful communities. She has worked to lay the groundwork in the community for the continued advancement of peace through reconciliation, support for the community’s homeless, and works selflessly with Moose Jaw’s special needs community. In accepting the Peace Medal, Gauvin thanked the YMCA and members of the community who nominated her. “A big thank you goes out to our community for submitting Peace Medal recipient nominations and for attending the Yoga for Peace class, Megan Welwood for instructing our Yoga class, and everyone else that was involved with our Peace Week activities,” said Bochek.

REFLECTIVE MOMENTS What will hotel prize cost the winners? I might have just turned down the best Christmas present ever to come uninvited to our household. But then again, maybe this gift horse needed to be looked in the mouth. It was a typical day: doing paperwork, baking a festive cake in a dysfunctional oven, catching up on dishes waiting to be scrubbed, making to-do lists in my head. The telephone rang — the one that’s connected to land and whose number is still in that thing called a “telephone book” —and I hurried to answer in case it was an important call. Joyce Walter It wasn’t, but thank you to the man on the other end who so kindly offered to do whatever he needed to For Moose Jaw Express make sure my Microsoft computer worked to my expectations. I hope his ear wasn’t damaged when my receiver was hung up with determination, after a tiny white falsehood disclaiming ownership of a computer. Then the phone rang again, with call display showing a 693 prefix, suggesting it might be someone calling from down the street or across town. It was across a town alright, but the town wasn’t Moose Jaw and again I hung up on the caller who told me my Visa charge card needed attention. I don’t have one of that kind but give her an E for effort and for what must be extraordinarily thick skin. Sometime later in the evening another call came in. “Unknown name” was listed on the display screen. Maybe it was the scam caller suggesting jail time from CRA if my taxes weren’t paid forthwith. Just what one needs to round off the day of annoying calls. I answered and a lady’s voice on the other end pointed out that a friend who recently travelled with me had entered my name to receive a Christmas get-away vacation at the hotel chain who hired this telemarketer. I will not reveal the hotel’s name so as not to compromise any privacy laws and besides, I don’t want to give this company any unpaid promotional space. The taped script said I would be able to pick the hotel’s location of my choice and while in residence, I would be treated to all sorts of amenities such a spa visits, esthetic treatments, fine dining experiences and discounts at nearby shops. Yeah, right. There might have been some excitement if the other side of the conversation had been spontaneous, and if the reputation of this chain of hotels had not already been tarnished through past encounters. I hung up before hearing the whole speech so therefore I wonder now if I weren’t hasty in disconnecting the call. Perhaps I should have waited to hear how much this getaway would cost me, for certainly there would be costs for being selected for this prestigious vacation prize.

Secondly, maybe a Christmas retreat to a hotel by this name in Hawaii might have been a worthwhile trip of escape from snow and freezing rain, even with unspecified costs thrown in. Most curious though, would be to learn the identity of the so-called friend who had recently travelled with me and entered my name. My only travel companion of any distance has been Housemate and he knows better than to enter my name in such phoney contests. Maybe the nice lady will call again and provide answers to all those questions and might even be able to tell me if turkey is served on Christmas Day in this hotel’s restaurant in Hawaii. Winning minds need to know. Joyce Walter can be reached at ronjoy@sasktel.net

Burrowing Owl Centre fundraiser held at Exhibition grounds By Ron Walter - For Moose Jaw Express

The 26th annual Burrowing Owl Night at the Exhibition grounds featured fun and owls to raise money for the centre. Two of the dozen or so captive owls at the Saskatchewan Burrowing Owl Interpretive Centre (SBOIC) were taken through the audience of 160 people by their handlers. Smiles lit up the faces of old and young alike, as they petted the cuddly little endangered species. The two owls they petted were raised by humans and are accustomed to being around people. The same owls are used by SBOIC’s education program on tour at schools in southern Saskatchewan. The night’s entertainment involved cheer demonstrations by the 30-member all-girl Infinity Cheer Athletics Team. Their cheer routines and awesome tumbling wowed the audience. Magician, ventriloquist and comedian Doug Arden performed on stage with audience participation. The annual dinner and auction is part of the fund-raising program to maintain the centre on the Exhibition grounds. The centre was established in 1997 as a refuge for lost and injured burrowing owls, and to protect the few owls left in the city on the racetrack in-field. Since then, burrowing owls, once common in the north end of Moose Jaw no longer nest here, as their habitat has been developed. Visitors to Moose Jaw used to drink coffee in the Heritage Inn restaurant and watch the owls on the strip of prairie between the hotel and Main Street. The Saskatchewan burrowing owl population has declined by 94 per cent since the 1980s. The remaining 500 to 800 pairs in this province represent most of Western Canada’s 1,000 pairs.

Vanier wins provincial volleyball championship Vikings claim title with dramatic three-set win in gold medal game Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Vanier Vikings senior boys volleyball team had already put together a spectacular season even before they took the court for the Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association 4A boys provincial championships. The season turned out to be truly legendary. The Vikings took a 2-1 (25-16, 16-25, 15-13) win over Osler VCA in the championship game to claim the first boys provincial volleyball championship in school history. The win capped an amazing campaign that saw Vanier go undefeated in the regular season before winning their first city championship since 1993. “We played very strong volleyball; we were just a complete team,” said Vikings coach Levi Broda. “We didn’t have a weakness in the sense that, even when we were struggling, our fundamentals allowed us to stay in sets and really wear other teams down. When things don’t go the way you want, you can always rely on your fundamentals and you can be there and stay in it until things start to click and then get going.” Even with how well things turned out,

Fort Qu’Appelle and Humboldt, the Vikings ran into Osler for the first time to close out the preliminary round and themselves fell 2-0. Broda felt that loss was especially important in the greater scheme of things, as Vanier was competitive in the contest despite facing some sudden adversity -starting setter Kyle Gotana suffered an ankle injury the previous night, pressing back-up Matthew Flanagan into service. Flanagan turned in what Broda termed ‘the game of his life’, only to have the team struggle around him. “Could you imagine being thrown into that environment?” Broda queried. “He’s had limited reps in setting all year and he played so well. He gave us a chance, but the rest of the team didn’t support him as we needed. “But that loss was really important, because it showed the guys that we have a strong team and we still have an opportunity no matter what happens. So,, even though it was a loss it was still important

for how we were going to finish.” The Vikings rebounded in style in their first playoff game, defeating Lumsden 2-0 before taking a 2-0 win over La Loche in the semifinal. That set up the gold medal game against Osler and what Broda termed one of the most exciting matches he’s been a part of. After Vanier won the first set, Osler raised the level of their serve game to the point the Vikings struggled to reply. A handful of adjustments heading into the third set and it was volleyball war the rest of the way. “The third set was just a blur,” Broda said. “Every point was contested like it was life or death; both teams battled it out. Even the game-winning point, I couldn’t remember what happened, but both teams were selling out and it was just a battle, battle, battle.” The Vikings ended up with a 14-11 lead before Osler picked up two quick points to put the pressure on. That set the stage for a final point that didn’t look as if it would end. “We had four opportunities in that last rally to win the point and on the fourth one we got a brush off the block and ball hit the floor,” Broda said. And with that, Vanier were provincial champions. “We all knew that it would be achievable to get a provincial medal, but no one wanted to say it, that we were capable of winning a gold, just out of respect to all the other teams,” Broda said. “It’s really special and it’s something that every single one of us will never forget. The boys said it, they cannot wait to come into the gym every day when that banner is hanging and marvel at what they accomplished. I hope for years and years to come they come back to Vanier and just reflect on that amazing weekend in Melville.” The gold medal final can be watched at https://streaming.lskysd.ca/player/?i=14jF5

Warriors Tribe close-in on division leaders with solid showing Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Moose Jaw Warriors just keep finding ways to get things done, at home or on the road. The Warriors won three of four games last week during a swing through the Western Hockey League’s B.C. and Central divisions, a showing that saw them improve to 15-6-3-1 and move within two points of second place in the Eastern Conference. The Warriors opened the week in style on Nov. 28, building a 3-0 lead on their way to a 3-1 win over the Kootenay Ice. Keenan Taphorn, Josh Brook and Jett Woo all scored for the Tribe, while Payton Krebs responded for Kootenay. Adam Evanoff made 26 saves in goal, the Warriors fired 29 at the Ice’s Duncan McGovern. Things went completely opposite for the Warriors on Nov. 30 as they kicked off their three-games-in-threenight tour through the Central Division in Edmonton, this time seeing the Oil Kings take a 1-0 lead out of the first on a goal by Brett Kemp before scoring three straight unanswered to take another 3-1 win. Tracey, Yegor Buyalski and Justin Almeida scored for

Moose Jaw, Tristin Langan had two assists. Evanoff stopped 35 shots, Dylan Myskiw made 19 saves in Edmonton’s goal.

A pair of goals 2:38 apart early in the second proved to be the difference the next night against the Red Deer Rebels as the Warriors went on to a 3-2 win. Daemon Hunt opened scoring in the first before Woo and Tate Popple scored their quick markers. Langan again played playmaker all night with three assists. Evanoff stopped 16 shots in goal, Byron Warancy was far busier and made 43 saves for the Rebels. The Warriors closed out the trip in Calgary against the Hitmen and finally ran out of gas, falling behind 4-0 before Justin Almeida scored their lone goal 4:43 into the third. Kaden Elder and James Malm scored two each for Calgary, Egor Zamula had their other marker. Evanoff made 29 saves in taking the loss, Jack McNaughton stopped 33 for Calgary. The Warriors are back on home ice Dec. 5 when they host the Medicine Hat Tigers before a weekend home and home set that sees the Tribe in Saskatoon on Friday and hosting the Blades on Saturday.

Generals snap skid with win in Yorkton Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Moose Jaw Generals are back in the win zone. After losing 13 straight games – a run that saw the local squad go the full month of November without finding victory – there was something to smile about when the Generals took a 7-1 victory over the Yorkton Maulers in Yorkton on Dec. 1.

The weekend action saw the Generals improve to 7-13-2-1 on the season, five points back of the eighth-place Saskatoon Contacts. Evan Sare scored a pair of goals for the Generals as they took a 3-0 lead out of the first and led 5-0 through two. Casey McDonald also scored twice to go along with single markers from Ben Peterson, Ben Wourms-Rowe and Brendan Kemp. With his team putting together their best offensive output of the season in front of him, Reece Hodson did the job as his end of the ice, stopping 27 shots for the win. Unfortunately for the local squad, they’d be unable to keep things going despite another fast start in the rematch the following afternoon. McDonald had a natural hat trick by the 5:35 mark of the second period, but that wouldn’t be enough as Yorkton got one

Sets4Supper raises funds for Riverside Mission All-star charity volleyball games feature impressive action Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Sets4Supper volleyball charity matches at Vanier Collegiate on Saturday afternoon saw world-class athletes like former Saskatchewan Roughriders Chris Getzlaf and Jeremy O’Day playing. More than 100 patrons filled the Ned Andreoni gymnasium for the event, which featured a celebrity all-star game that included members of the Saskatchewan Roughriders football team, as well as a high-school all-star game with some of the top players from the local boys and girls leagues. Both games were plenty entertaining and filled with laughs, and both featured some impressive volleyball, especially the celebrity game as it progressed. “I think it was just a matter of us all getting going and then we all wanted to win,” said Team Yellow player Fraser Tolmie,

Tolmie was one of the standouts in the contest, drawing kudos from the gym commentator throughout the match and even pulling off an impressive back-tofront row save on a near certain point for Team Blue in the first set. Given how close the match was – Yellow ended up taking a 2-1 (25-23, 19-25, 15-12) victory – that point was crucial. “It was good to have a couple nice little plays to show I was worthy of being on the team,” Tolmie said with a laugh. “It was a lot fun to get out there, brush some rust off some old skills.” Saskatchewan NDP leader Ryan Meili was on the losing side, but was quick to point out how enjoyable the whole experience

The Vanier Collegiate organizers of the Sets4Supper charity volleyball games – Aimee Dumlao, Madison DeCorby, Allison Grajczyk-Jelinski and Jenna Meili -receive applause for their hard work.

Local luminaries were out in force on both teams, including Snowbirds pilots Kevin Domon-Grenier (Snowbird 5) and Sarah Dallaire (Snowbird 2) as well as a host of players from emergency services and local organizations. It was all for the best cause possible – supporting Riverside Mission and spreading awareness of worldwide homelessness and poverty. “I’m very passionate about our youth, and just to see our youth stand up and four awesome young girls (see sidebar) wanting to do something good in their community,” said Tolmie. “That’s the kind of community we want to live in, one that develops future leaders and I’m really proud of them and our community as a whole to rally together and help those who are less fortunate and in need.” The high school all-star game featured players from Vanier, Peacock and Central, with Team Blue taking a 25-23, 23-25, 15-9 victory. The event also featured a silent auction and penny parade, featuring a host if items donated by supporting businesses. The fundraising totals were still being totalled as of press time.

When Vanier Collegiate student Jenna Meili attended an event called Passion to Purpose, as part of the Duke of Edinburgh Award Program earlier this year, a special fundraising idea crept into her mind. The captain of the eventual city champion Vanier Spirits, Meili thought an all-star volleyball game featuring local celebrities would be an interesting venture, and upon returning home, enlisted the help of Madison DeCorby, Aimee Dumlao and Allison Grajczyk-Jelinski with the goal of making said project happen. That idea became Sets4Supper. And to say they pulled it off would be a bit of an understatement, as an impressive crowd took in the Riverside Mission fundraiser and witnessed an impressive slate of volleyball, while bring in cash for the local charity. “All the preparation we did really paid off and the support has been amazing,” Meili said. “The community has been awesome with their donations and support and even the local celebrities, wow, what can I say, that’s amazing.... I’m kind of overwhelmed right now, but it’s been absolutely incredible.” Rachel Mullens, interim manager of Riverside Mission, was especially impressed with the support. “It’s been wonderful. Vanier has really taken on Riverside Mission as their charity and they’ve done quite a few things for us,” said Mullens, whose husband, Danny, played in the game and is operations manager at the Mission. “This was just exciting to see, the students take initiative and supporting Riverside Mission. They did a wonderful job of putting this on and I couldn’t have asked for anything better. A theme throughout the event was the hard work of the Vanier students, something the Mullens felt was the most impressive of all. “It gives me great pleasure to see that,” she said. “We live in a society where it’s a lot about me, me, me, and it’s good to see young people taking on other people’s problems, problems that are as big as the world, but they’re just trying to do something to help their own community and better their community, and I think that helps those students better themselves.”

Gutheridge inducted into Sports Hall of Fame Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

There are few people in the history of Moose Jaw who dedicated more of their life to developing and improving the sporting community than Stanley ‘Hub’ Gutheridge. Gutheridge was one of six athletes and builders honoured by the Hall for 2018 and was enshrined on the Wall of Fame in Mosaic Place during this year’s induction ceremonies. Jeff Lott represented his grandfather and family at the event and said the honour would have meant a lot to Gutheridge. “I know he’d be humbled and honoured to be named to the Hall of Fame, and I have to thank the committee on behalf of our family,” Lott said. “It’s always nice to come home; I lived here until I left for school in 1968 and we’ve been a very close family and always kept in touch. Grandpa was always just such a great man and set such a high morale standard for the family.” Born in London, England in 1905, Gutheridge moved to Moose Jaw in 1913 and eventually became heavily involved in high school sports and with the YMCA, holding a wide variety of positions with both organizations for over 60 years until 1978. Gutheridge’s constant involvement in the local sports scene was something his family always noticed, with Lott doing so in a rather unique way. “I’d go and stay with him and it didn’t matter what day of the week, he always had a shirt and tie on,” he explained. “And I always thought ‘this is very formal’, I was a young man and very impressionable and I thought that was maybe the standard, a British tradition. But no, it was because he always had meetings; it didn’t matter which day of the week, and then on Sunday he went to church. So he was a very busy man and he enjoyed every

aspect he was involved in.” As the Moose Jaw Public Schools physical education supervisor, Gutheridge organized the school sports and swimming programs and was the driving force behind the construction of a football field and track facility on a tract of land next to Riverview Collegiate. That complex was officially named Gutheridge Field during the opening of the 1972 Summer Games. It continues to be a hub of activity all through the warm weather months, as school and recreational activities see the facilities being put to constant use. “Whenever I come back, sometimes by coincidence and sometimes by planning, I come back during football season,” Lott said. “I played football and when I played he was an official; he was a timer on the sidelines, and then after being away for awhile my parents told me they’d actually named the field after him. So, every time I come back, I have to drive by and see what’s going on. And friends have come here and heard the story and visited the field, too. So it’s a tremendous recognition for him and the work he did for sports in the community.” Gutheridge was also heavily involved in the Moose Jaw Basketball Association and spent many hours in the pool with the Canadian Red Cross Water Safety program and the Royal Life Saving Society, holding executive positions with the groups and instructing, coaching and officiating in various capacities over the years. The number of awards Gutheridge has received over the years reflects his stature as a community builder: he received the City of Moose Jaw Medal of Merit in 1972 and the Government of Saskatchewan award that same year to go along with the Canada Fitness & Amateur Sport Award in 1977. He was named a YMCA Honorary Life

Caffeine Fiend

Some folks might describe my “condition” as an addiction or a habit, but I prefer to think of it as just a daily part of my early morning routine. I am not talking about body functions in the bathroom, but oddly… maybe I am, because I am referring to by Dale “bushy” coffee and how important it seems to be to my day’s Bush beginning. After I awaken and check my tired old body for any new aches or pains, the very first thing I do is start a pot of coffee. In eleven and a half minutes there will be some hot dark “gojuice” waiting for me. That gives me about eleven minutes to get dressed, start a fire in the woodstove (if needed) and to feed the cat and the fish, but not feeding the fish to the cat, as the cat would like. With an extra-large mug of coffee (about 2 cups), I retire to the throne for some “solitude” and crosswordinating. That is the start to my perfect day. Apparently, I am as average as the next average guy drinking 2 cups and seeking a few moments of “solitude” in the morning. When it comes to being average, I try to be above average.

Coffee is second to tea, as the world’s most popular drink, with roughly half of the world’s adults enjoying the beautiful brown bean brew and the caffeine that gets the world started and going in the mornings. Even if your coffee label says “de-caffeinated” coffee, you are still getting some caffeine because it is very expensive to totally remove caffeine. The label of “caffeine-free” will keep the jitters away. Most folks will begin to experience their coffee rush about five minutes after that first sip-a-joe and that should peak about thirty minutes later with caffeine hanging around in the body for about 3 hours for men and a little longer for women. and if you are a smoker that time span will be shorter. Strangely enough, as we get older, our sensitivity to caffeine and coffee increases, so I wonder why I still drink the same amount of coffee each day. There are folks who do not bother with making a pot of coffee in the morning; they get their caffeine kicks from a can of soda “cola” pop. By cleverly wording the ingredients on a can of “cola” pop, someone might think that the caffeine in “cola” pop was from kola nuts. They would be only partially correct. Most of the caffeine in soda “cola” pop is the caffeine from de-caffeinated coffee beans. When soda “cola” pop was first introduced in the 1880’s, it is said that caffeine was added to the recipe for a little extra kick like carbonation was. There are those

that claim that the manufacturers of the soda “cola” pop added caffeine to “addict” drinkers to their pop. In the summer of 2000, that very claim was verified in a study. Sneaky cola guys! But at least the coffee guys are not trying to hide any secret ingredients because we know what coffee/caffeine is all about. Am I healthier because I drink a modest amount of coffee on a daily basis? Apparently yes, because studies have NOT linked caffeine with cancer or heart disease, as once believed. In fact, caffeine may actually have some preventative properties. Researchers are also studying caffeine as an anti-depressant; there have been positive results using caffeine in treatment for alcoholism. I am sure that coffee falls into that group of substances that is better if smartly used, instead of stupidly abused… and to that, I smartly raise my mug to use and not abuse.

New lawyers make long journey to be called to the bar Matthew Gourlie

It is a long journey to be called to the Saskatchewan bar. Lorna Cottenden’s path to becoming a lawyer was longer than most. “For me, my journey has been a little bit backwards. As my father would say if he were still alive: I tended to do a number of things in my life somewhat out of order, but I eventually got to them all,” Cottenden said. Cottenden and Jared McRorie both pledged their oath, as they were called to the bar during their Bar Admission Ceremony Thursday November 29th at the Court of Queen’s Bench in Moose Jaw. Cottenden has three children and eight grandchildren and didn’t begin university until 1998 when she was 38 years old. Her pursuit of a Political Science degree at Dalhousie University in Halifax was delayed when her husband was transferred to Honduras. Once she completed her undergraduate degree in 2002, she carried on and earned her law degree in 2007. She put off articling while she cared for her aging parents for 10 years. “There just wasn’t the opportunity in my family to go to university after high school, but I knew it was something that I always wanted to do. As with most of us, life gets in the way,” said Cotteden who is 58 years old. “I know my age would surprise some people. I have received some negative comments about that -- even when I was in law school. That’s the nature of the beast and unfortunately, we live in those times. “I would just encourage everybody to pursue their dreams no matter what. All of us don’t have opportunities at the same time as everybody else does. You have to play your hand as best you can.” Through her husband’s work as an engineer, Cottenden lived in nearly every province in the country. She articled with Grayson & Company Barristers and Solicitors in Moose Jaw, starting in 2017, and plans to open her own local practice in January called Nelcot Law Prof. “I love Moose Jaw. I love the history and everything about it,” said Cottenden, who comes from a military family and grew up in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. “We’ll retire here for sure.” Cottenden said that the “ability to speak for people who would otherwise not be able to speak for themselves” is what has her most excited to be a practicing lawyer. “At the end of the day, people want to be heard. They need to be validated and I look forward to be able to do that,” she said. Jared McRorie was born in Regina and raised in Saskatoon. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy with honours from the University of Saskatchewan and then completed law school there. Law wasn’t initially McRorie’s planned career path -- he considered medicine and possibly combining his passion for music with teaching -- but he has grown deeply passionate about law and is excited about starting a career in Moose Jaw. “I certainly feel a sense of profound responsibility,” McRorie said. “I went to school for eight years, I have two degrees, so it’s the end of one long road and the beginning of another.” McRorie articled with Chow McLeod Barristers & Solicitors beginning in October of 2017 and will continue to work there. While in law school, McRorie worked for the Ministry

of Justice in their Public Prosecutions division which allowed him to work on more than 200 trials in traffic court. He also volunteered with the Community Legal Assistance Services for Saskatoon Inner City Inc. “I wanted to do what I could to help people to achieve the greatest amount of rights that they have been afforded -which is substantial in Canada,” McRorie said. “I want to make sure that people are represented properly and ably, and that people have a voice. I want to make sure that people aren’t walked on or trampled under the feet of the state or anyone else with an imbalance of power. Private citizens, there’s only one of them against the truly massive construct that is the state. What I wanted to do was make sure that those people could be heard and ensure that their rights are protected.” McRorie isn’t wasting any time getting involved in the local law community. He is the incoming governor for the Saskatchewan Trial Lawyers Association. Saskatchewan Chief Justice Robert G. Richards brought greetings from the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal. The top judge in the province shared an old parable as a piece of advice for the new lawyers to not lose sight of the larger meaning of their work. “There’s an old story about three medieval stone masons who were asked what they were doing. The first mason, without even looking up said ‘I’m making my living.’ The second mason replied, ‘I’m shaping this stone to pattern.’ The third mason lifted his eyes, stood up proudly and said, ‘I’m building a cathedral,’” Richards said. “And, so it is with a legal career, I think. You can bring to the profession a conception of your work that doesn’t go much beyond the idea of earning a living. Alternatively, you can see your role as merely trying to fashion your client’s interest into a winning pattern in file after file. I can assure you, you will do your best work and make your largest contribution to the larger community if you remember that, by being a lawyer, you’re not just cutting stone, you are helping to build and maintain a cathedral. “I have to say that remembering the cathedral is especially important in times like this when the rule of law and the independence of judicial processes is under pressure in places where it once seemed entirely secure.”

Sask. organic farming sector small but growth in double digits By Ron Walter - For Agri-Mart Express

Organic farming is a EXPRESS fraction of Saskatchewan agriculture output, but this province is a leader in this growing farm technique. Most organic crop variety acres grew by double digits over five years, according to the annual survey by the Canadian Organic Trade Organization. Saskatchewan’s 1.16 million organic acres use only 3.8 per cent of arable land and 1,105 organic farms in 2017 accounted for 2.9 per cent of all farms. Five years ago, only 925 organic farms existed in this province. Organic acres amount to 37 per cent of Canadian acreage. Organic acres have grown 30 per cent from 893,000 in 2012. Cereals make up the largest acreages with 169,000 in wheat, a decline of three per cent. Kamut, an ancient wheat crop, grew 53 per cent to 42,000 acres. Barley acres grew 23 per cent to 41,000. Oats increased five per cent to 107,000 acres. A 20 per cent decline was registered in rye to just under 14,000 acres, while other cereals fell 21 per cent to 4,900 acres. Lentil acres grew 41 per cent to 38,600 acres, while dried beans jumped 750 per cent to 1,700 acres.

Dried peas grew 21 per cent to 33,700 acres, while other pulses and protein crops fell 88 per cent to 1,500 acres. Flax took a big jump, 38 per cent to 67,000 acres among oilseeds, with mustard up 53 per cent to 12,200 acres. Soybeans fell from 1,100 to 400 acres. Hardly any organic canola is grown in Saskatchewan, due to growing distance restrictions from GMO canola fields. Hemp grew to 5,500 acres from 2,300, while other field crops went from 2,100 to 5,700 acres. Pasture forage and natural areas jumped 53 per cent to 607,500 acres. Organic fruits and vegetables declined from 4,500 acres in 2012 to 1,900 in 2017. Total crop value in Saskatchewan was $186 million — about two per cent of Saskatchewan crop receipts. The Prairies organic food and beverage market is worth $862 million. Alberta crops with fewer farms and acres has $676 million, due to more processing and consumer level sales. Seventy-four per cent of Alberta grocery shoppers choose organics weekly, while 62 per cent of Saskatchewan and Manitoba shoppers do the same. Ron Walter can be reached at ronjoy@sasktel.net

On the Front Porch

by Wanda Smith

On Assignment A few weeks ago, I shared about my love of the game of hockey. However, there are some aspects of the game I loathe... one being how parents live out their unrealized dreams through their children. I saw this on several occasions, as parents pushed their kids to perform no matter the cost. Recently, I read about an NHL player, Patrick O’Sullivan, who was severely abused by his father who was desperate to live out his dreams through his son. Patrick shared only a small part of his story on www.theplayerstribune.com and commented on the “way youth hockey is trending... When I was in the NHL, I’d be doing my off-season workouts at the gym with Daniel Carcillo and some other NHL buddies, and we’d look over and see 12-year-old kids doing the same two-hour workout we were doing, with a trainer screaming at them the whole time. Half the time, their parents would be there yelling at them, too.” There is another story of when a young man attended a prestigious event in which he received the annual Outstanding Citizen of the Year Award. His parents were there, sitting on the edge of their seat, awaiting the celebration of their son and what he’d become; the realization of the dream that their son had become a distinguished doctor, fulfilling the unmet dream of his father. The room became silent once Dr. Clyde Wilson Jr. had received his accolades; his composure broke and he despairingly asked his parents to forgive him because he just couldn’t carry forth the dream of a medical doctor they had worked so hard for him to achieve. On the quiet ride home, he continued to explain himself, saying he had become what they had dreamed for him but had never had the chance to become who he was made to be. He shared how his dream was to become a musician and had realized standing on that stage that he could not continue trying to fulfill his parents’ dream and had to begin fulfilling his own. His words were “I want to live. I want to come alive. I want to be what I was born to be (from “In Pursuit of Purpose” by Myles Munroe.) No matter our race, our age, our skills or our abilities, we were created to live a meaningful, fulfilled life. Be bold enough to leave the dull, boring, meaningless, empty life you are living and dare to ask God to reveal what you’ve been created to be. Our purpose is the key. Our assignment is to solve a problem for someone, somewhere. Mike Murdock gives a few tips to discovering our purpose: 1. “What you love the most reveals the greatest gifts you contain.” What are you passionate about? 2. “What grieves you is a clue to what you are assigned to heal and restore.” What moves you? When you discover your assignment, depression leaves. Fear leaves. Joy and peace come and uncommon favor enters because you are fulfilling your purpose and calling. “God wants us to know His plans and purposes for our lives because He knows that apart from them we cannot know hope, peace and joy. Purpose is the key to fulfillment because it establishes the foundation on which all of life must be built.” (Myles Munroe.) Dear readers, life will start taking on new meaning for you. Look for signs and listen to Holy Spirit as He takes you on the discovery of His plan for your life. Be open and teachable. Your life will never be the same!

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Wilfred “Ross” Leighton on the morning of November 23, 2018 at the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital in Moose Jaw, SK, with family by his side. He was predeceased by his parents, Joseph and Elizabeth Leighton, sisters, Violet Statham, Jean Leighton, Rita Farr, and by numerous other close cousins and friends.

After moving to Moose Jaw, he remained very active in community events and was one of the founding members of the Moose Jaw Seniors Association becoming their director, a position he held for many years. He was an entertainer at heart, playing several instruments, but was particularly proficient with the violin. He had a playful nature. He loved to work with his hands and could often be found working on a wood-working project, but mostly appreciated spending time with his close friends at Timothy Eaton Gardens playing cards or pool. Friends and family were invited to W.J. Jones & Son Funeral Home, 106 Athabasca St. E, for a time of visitation on Saturday, December 1, 2018 from 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm.

Prison guards push for changes to needle plan before national rollout OTTAWA _ Federal prison guards are warning that needle-exchange programs in penitentiaries pose them a health and safety risk. Jason Godin, president of the Union of Canadian Correctional Officers, says the initiative clashes with the long-stated principle of a zero-tolerance policy on drugs and makes prisons riskier workplaces. The federal prison service has already set up programs at two institutions in a bid to reduce the incidence of infectious diseases among inmates. The initiative, to be rolled out to all federal prisons next year, will give inmates access

to clean needles in an effort to limit the transmission of hepatitis C and HIV. From 2007 to 2017, the prevalence of hepatitis C in prison declined to 7.8 per cent from 31.6 per cent, while HIV dropped to 1.2 per cent from just over two per cent, according to federal statistics. However, these diseases are still far more widespread behind bars than among the general public. © 2018 The Canadian Press

US farmers store record soybean crop as China dispute weighs By David Pitt - THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DES MOINES, Iowa _ American farmers still working to get out their remaining soybeans after a weather-plagued harvest season are struggling to figure out what to do with a record crop now their traditionally dominant export market is largely closed. Usually by this point in the year, 100-car trains filled with North Dakota soybeans

would be moving to ports on the West Coast destined for China. But this year is different, after China all but stopped buying U.S. soybeans in response to President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs . Fearful of economic failure, farmers are frantically trying to determine how to store a potentially 1 billion-bushel surplus until it can be sold at a decent price.

U.S. soybean farm organizations have cultivated other markets, including Egypt, Argentina and Iran, and boosted sales to the European Union and Mexico. But that doesn’t make up for the gap left by the loss of the Chinese market. Meanwhile, more beans are going into storage than usual, and this could have an impact on the price of the 2019 crop.

WORKFORCE CONNECTOR

As bin space fills up, some farmers are storing beans inside bunkers covered with plastic wrap to keep moisture out, while others are storing them outside, on the ground, in 200- to 300-foot-long (60- to 90-meter-long) plastic bags. © 2018 The Canadian Press

JUSTICE

Saskatchewan proposes controversial trespass law requiring landowner permission By Ryan McKenna - THE CANADIAN PRESS

SASKATOON - A First Nations leader says proposed Saskatchewan legislation that would require people to get permission before they go on private land could lead to clashes and even deaths. Chief Bobby Cameron, with the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations, said a man was found hunting on Kawacatoose First Nation land on Tuesday. Cameron said the man was told he didn’t have permission to hunt there and was escorted off the land. But Cameron said it may not always be that simple. ``Had it been the other way around, I don’t know if a farmer would have been that kind or that patient,’’ he said. The proposed changes to trespassing legislation were introduced Tuesday, over two years after Colten Boushie, a 22-yearold Indigenous man, was killed on a farm in rural Saskatchewan.

Earlier this year, a jury acquitted farmer Gerald Stanley of second-degree murder after he testified his gun went off accidentally when he was trying to scare off some young people who drove on to his farm. ``We hope there are no more tragedies, we really hope,’’ Cameron said Tuesday. ``But if they do, this provincial government should also say, we will be held liable if someone dies because of this trespassing legislation.’’ Justice Minister Don Morgan said the proposed law balances the rights of rural landowners and the public. The legislation would provide legal protection for landowners against property damage caused by a trespasser. A recent survey released by the province showed 65 per cent of respondents said people should ask landowners for permission before they go onto private land. ``This legislation shifts that re-

sponsibility to those wishing to access the land, by requiring them to obtain prior permission from the landowner or occupier,’’ Morgan said in a statement. Cameron said it’s unfortunate the province didn’t consult the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations and decided to base the proposed changes on the survey’s results. He predicted the proposed legislation will create headaches because First Nation land and roads are used by non-Indigenous people. ``So, you mean to tell me that every farmer and rancher and agriculturalist needs to call chief and council every single time to come on to lands?’’ Cameron said. ``That’s cumbersome. There’s a better way of doing business.’’ © 2018 The Canadian Press

Museum sells 22 of 40 pieces, some Rockwell, to pay bills Barb Corrobourg

PITTSFIELD, Mass. _ The Massachusetts museum that drew international condemnation for its decision to raise money by selling dozens of works of art, including two by Norman Rockwell, says it only needed to sell about half the pieces to reach its goal. The Berkshire Museum in Pittsfield announced Tuesday it only needed to sell 22 works, raising more than $53 million, even though it could have sold up to 40 pieces. The museum said there will be no further sales.

Officials, citing the museum’s dire financial straits, announced in 2017 they needed to sell the works to stay open, bolster the endowment, and fund a renovation as it refocused its mission away from art and toward natural history and science. The sale of the Rockwell pieces was opposed because the illustrator lived in nearby Stockbridge. © 2018 The Canadian Press
