attractive. In addition to being an athletic sport, creating well-meshed routines including make-up and costumes is a major part of any kind of success “If you’re looking for a creative sport, this is kind of the place to be,” Beattie said. “It’s like dancing, it’s like cheer, it’s like speed-swimming, it brings so many different elements together.”

Currently, synchro programs are taking place in three age categories, with the 13to 15-year-old division, 10-12 group and six to nine group.

The Otters plan to expand classes as necessary for more swimmers coming on, and ideally getting back into the competitive side of the sport in the near future.

“Hopefully in a year or two max,” Beattie said, who is in her seventh year with the club and second as coach. “You never know, we’ll just have to see how things turn out.”

The most important thing, though, is to keep the Otters in the water.

“This is my family, quite honestly, I’ve known these girls for so long,” Beattie said. “Even though I’m their coach, they’re still like little sisters to me and it’s great to be able to work with them.”

The local club – which swims twice a week at the pool in the 15 Wing athletic complex – recently opted to move to a full recreational program for the 201819 season, a move designed to rebuild the team back into the competitive stream. As a result, it’s the ‘more the merrier’ as they hope to see new youngsters taking to the pool.

To that end, they’ll be holding a Try Synchro for Free evening on Nov. 16, looking to see as many potential new Otters as possible.

This year’s campaign kicks off on Nov. 26 in front of Superstore and runs until Dec. 24, as part of their ongoing mission to supply Christmas hampers to families in need.

The kettles are located in prominent retail outlets throughout the city and are staffed by a small army of volunteers – an army that Maj. Broome is looking to build as you read this.

Broome estimated that over 100 would be needed to fully cover the long line of shifts. The support has traditionally been there, though, augmented by service club members lending a hand to fill any openings. The drive hopes to bring more volunteers in to fill the void.

The money that is donated through the kettle campaign goes back to the families Specialized in that need it in the community.

Partners Against Violence growing campaign combating violence against women Matthew Gourlie

Saskatchewan has the highest instances of violence against women in the country.

Violence against women isn’t going away, so the members of Moose Jaw’s Partners Against Violence are increasing their efforts to raise awareness during this year’s White Ribbon Campaign.

“As Partners Against Violence, we’re working together to not only make the campaign happen again, but increase the presence of the campaign and take it to a higher level, where it should be,” said Sgt. Kevin Pilsworth from the Moose Jaw Police Service.

The White Ribbon Campaign is a global initiative to end male violence against women. It began in the wake of the École Polytechnique massacre in Montreal on Dec. 6, 1989, that saw 14 female students shot and killed because of their gender. The White Ribbon Campaign is now active in more than 60 countries and seeks to promote healthy relationships, gender equity and a compassionate vision of masculinity. The ‘white ribbon’ is meant to symbolize “the idea of men giving up their arms.”

“Violence is not OK with anyone and it is everyone’s responsibility, but really, the White Ribbon Campaign is trying to shift it a little bit and say yes it is everyone’s responsibility, but for this moment in time we want to acknowledge the fact that historically men have been over-represented in violence against women. As a result, it should be men that are bringing awareness of that and bringing it to the forefront. It should be men of all ages who are the champions of the White Ribbon Campaign,” Pilsworth said.

The Moose Jaw Police Service is one of several local agencies that are part of Partners Against Violence.

Moose Jaw Mayor Fraser Tolmie signed a proclamation on Monday to kick-off the start of the White Ribbon Campaign, proclaiming Nov. 25 to Dec. 6 as White Ribbon Campaign week.

They hold events throughout the year and will be working together to raise awareness leading up to National Day of Remembrance on Dec. 6.

“The Police Service is super-privileged to be a part of that group. We try to share the responsibility with a number of different agencies and folks around the table,” Pilsworth said. “The Police Service certainly sees the front line of that violence on a regular basis, so it certainly makes sense that it’s something that we want to be a big part of.

“That’s one of the reasons we’re trying to be one of the leaders on the committee for Partners Against Violence.

I certainly want to give a lot of credit to Moose Jaw Transition House. They’ve really steered the ship for the part number of years. Their executive director Lori Lancaster has really been the main driver for the past four or

five years for the White Ribbon Campaign.”

Mayor Fraser Tolmie signed a proclamation to kick-off the White Ribbon Campaign on Nov. 15.

Partners Against Violence will be at the Nov. 23 Moose Jaw Warriors home game to further raise awareness.

“We’re thrilled to also have the support of the Moose Jaw Warriors,” Pilsworth said. “Partners Against Violence will be present at the game, handing out ribbons and buttons and some information surrounding the White Ribbon campaign, as well as making people aware of the Dec. 6 event.”

The week will conclude on the National Day of Remembrance on Dec. 6 with a luncheon from noon until 2 p.m. at Minto United Church.

Lani Elliot, a survivor of domestic violence from Regina, will be the keynote speaker.

“We’re excited to have her come in as a speaker,” Pilsworth said. “She has quite an interesting story.”

The event is open to the public and Charlotte’s will be providing a catered meal for $15.

“Our members and our staff here are fully behind this initiative,” Pilsworth said of the MJPS. “You will see our Chief and our members and staff wearing the white ribbon, as well as the red button that has the ‘Dec. 6 take action on violence against women’ motto on it. Several of our members will also be taking part in the lace-up campaign that is tied to the White Ribbon campaign.

“We’re stepping up our involvement and we’re trying to take this initiative to a higher level where we think it belongs. Violence needs to end. We’re trying to do our best, but there is definitely room for improvement and so that’s what we’re trying to do.”

TRADING THOUGHTS

Has Sask. population growth brought promised tax benefits?

The fuss over control in the Rural Municipality of McKillop mirrors the kind of conflict we can expect as Saskatchewan population grows.

The once farmer-dominated RM has now become dominated by summer and yearround city residents who have located on Last MounLake for recreational

by Ron Walter tain use.

The conflict arose when the farmer-dominated council placed a large percentage increase on property taxes for the ex-city residents. Because the RM voter boundary maps are a century old the new residents don’t have the fair representation on council they ought to have.

Growth in population is a good thing, ensuring more employees to replace an aging work force, ensuring more business for commercial owners, ensuring more tax revenue for government.

Population growth is a requirement for a dynamic prospering state.

After decades of population declines the Saskatchewan

WINTER’S COMING!

Party was elected in 2007 with a promise of increasing population by two per cent a year to 1.1 million in 10 years.

To meet the promise of increasing population by two per cent a year government overcame a low birth rate with an aggressive immigration policy, a tax credit to retain university graduates in this province, and a return flow of former Saskatchewan residents coming to find there were job opportunities.

The return flow of former Saskatchewan residents has slowed with low economic performance.

But the promise of increasing population was delivered.

Saskatchewan population stands at 1.162 million – an increase of 16 per cent in 11 years from just over one million.

The Saskatchewan Party promised the increased population would help pay for health care, education and other needs. And that has been the case.

While the party has delivered, the question is: Have the increased taxes from higher population been enough to take up the slack?

In education, the money has not been there to fund increased student enrolment that grew with population. The province this year restored $30 million — part of the draconian budget cuts in Brad Wall’s last year as premier.

That offered each of the 28 school divisions a bit over

$1 million on average and amounted to a 1.7 per cent increase for education.

What the Saskatchewan Party didn’t tell voters in 2007 was the pressure increased population would put on government funds.

That pressure exists from programs for newcomers to increased use of health, education and other government services, not to mention the strain on cities to ensure new streets, water, sewer, housing and other services.

The $1.9 billion cost over-run Regina bypass project stems first from a need for better safety as population and traffic adjacent to the city grew; second from a need to serve the global Transportation Hub (GTH).

There is no question that increased population brings with it more pressure and new needs on existing infrastructure.

One is reminded of a Moose Jaw business executive retiring around 2006. Yours Truly suggested to him a boom in the city would be nice.

His response: “I lived in Grande Prairie (Alberta) when it boomed from a small town to a city. The price of everything went up – meals, houses, rent. I don’t want a boom here.”

I was flabbergasted but realized he had a point. Be careful what you wish for. You might get it.

Local francophone association wins three provincial awards Matthew Gourlie

“We want to show them that they’re not alone,” Amstad said. “Most of the time you feel like you’re by yourself speaking French when you’re in a majority English-speaking place. We want to help them feel proud about speaking French and keep gaining confidence with French.”

They won their Program that Promotes the Inclusion of Newcomers award for their program ‘Sharing our heritage past, present and future’ that was held at Crescent Park in September of 2017. The project gathered together the Métis community, the Aboriginal community, the French community, the Newcomer Welcome Centre and the Western Development Museum.

“It was a big project and the idea behind it was to show the visitors that the French, Métis and Aboriginal people have been here a long time and then share how the cultures look right now and how they contributed to each other’s cultures,” Amstad explained. “And then with the Newcomer Welcome Centre, we had a booth that explained the steps newcomers have to go through to actually become a Canadian citizen. It was really nice to go from the very beginning until today, to what does the future look like?”

The provincial Fransaskoise awards gala drew nominations from the 12 regional associations across the province, plus recognized individuals in some categories.

South Hill Fine Foods Chantal Amstad, community development director for ACFMJ, holds images of some of the events they hosted this year in front of the three provincial awards the local francophone association won recently. Matthew Gourlie photograph

Moose Jaw has an active and vibrant francophone population and the local community association was recently recognized for some of its initiatives in the last year.

The ‘Association communautaire fransaskoise de Moose Jaw’ (ACFMJ) won three awards at the provincial Fransaskoise awards gala on Nov. 3.

“When we got our third prize that night, they said ‘oh you got a hat trick!’” said Chantal Amstad, community development director for ACFMJ. “It was awesome to see that by working hard at a local level, our events and our association are being recognized at a provincial level.

It’s pretty awesome to have people come and see me and say, ‘you’re doing a great job in Moose Jaw, I wish I was living there.’ That’s pretty rewarding, as well.”

The ACFMJ were nominated in four categories and won three awards. They won the award for the Regional Organization with the Most Distinguished Programming (Organisme régional s’étant le plus démarqué par l’originalité de sa programmation), the Program that Promotes the Inclusion of Newcomers (Projet favorisant le mieux l’inclusion des nouvelles et nouveaux arrivants), and the Most Mobilizing Project for Youth (Projet le plus mobilisateur pour la jeunesse).

They were also nominated for the Most Innovative and Original Project (Projet le plus novateur et original) for their inaugural ice fishing tournament at Buffalo Pound. They lost out to an improv group

from Saskatoon.

“We’re going to keep going with it because everyone had so much fun,” said Amstad who added that the tentative date for this year’s ice fishing tournament is Feb. 9.

The Moose Jaw Festival of Words was also nominated in the Friends of the Fransaskoisie (Ami/e des Fransaskois) category.

Amstad said it would have been impossible to create their programs without their local business partners and the support of the community.

“All of these little victories and the prizes, we wouldn’t have won without all of our partners within the community,” Amstad said. “Tourism Moose Jaw, Festival of Words, there are a lot of different local organizations here in Moose Jaw that help us shine at a local level.”

The AFMJ won their youth mobilization award for their annual Tintamarre fransaskois, a parade and show that features children from the local French immersion schools and École Ducharme doing two presentations.

“Whether it was a dance or a song or the national anthem, we were finding a way for the kids to get involved in that show,” Amstad said. “It keeps increasing year after year. This year, we are actually trying to find a bigger facility to have our ceremony and our little shows with the kids.”

Last year’s event drew more than 500 people and featured a big parade down Main Street.

If I’ve learnt anything in life, it’s ‘planning makes perfect!’

I hear lots of reports of how entities want to show, in the limelight, their great intentions, but fail mightily because of a lack of planning.

It behooves us to take a sober look at what we do. I’d like to inspire you with these quotes to... first Make a Plan...and then... Execute It.

Joan Ritchie “A goal without a plan is just a EDITOR wish.” ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, writer and pioneering aviator “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” ― Benjamin Franklin, Founding Father of the United States “If you don’t know where you are going, you’ll end up someplace else.” ― Yogi Berra, former New York Yankees catcher “Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes; but no plans.” ― Peter F. Drucker, author and educator “Plans are of little importance, but planning is essential.” ― Winston Churchill, former British Prime Minister “Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now.” ― Alan Lakein, author “A man who does not plan long ahead will find trouble at his door.” ― Confucius, Chinese philosopher “Always plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.” ― Richard Cushing, American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church “Few people have any next, they live from hand to mouth without a plan, and are always at the end of their line.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson, poet and essayist “Every minute you spend in planning saves 10 minutes in execution; this gives you a 1,000 percent return on energy!” ― Brian Tracy, author and motivational speaker “It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.” ― Eleanor Roosevelt, former first lady of the United States “The time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining.” ― John F. Kennedy, former U.S. President “Someone’s sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.” — Warren Buffett, investor “Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There is no other route to success.” ― Pablo Picasso, painter “Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.” ― Tom Landry, Hall of Fame football coach “Good fortune is what happens when opportunity meets with planning.” ― Thomas Edison, inventor “Unless you have a definite, precise, clearly set goals, you are not going to realize the maximum potential that lies within you.” ― Zig Ziglar, author and motivational speaker “Before anything else, preparation is the key to success.” ― Alexander Graham Bell, inventor “To achieve great things, two things are needed; a plan, and not quite enough time.” ― Leonard Bernstein, composer and conductor Send your letters to the editor to: letters@mjvexpress.com or 888-241-5291 All columns, letters to the editor and editorials are solely the personal opinions of the writers themselves and not necessarily the opinions of The Moose Jaw Express.

Written for Moose Jaw’s 100th Birthday in 2003

Moose Jaw/New Year’s Day Fire/January 01/04

On November 20th, 1903, A passage of time for all to see.

One hundred years gone by the way, Since Moose Jaw became a city that day.

Our city had completed our Centennial Year, To look forward and gain from our past, When fire broke out in our Main Street stores And threatened the dreams that we had.

By Joyce Clark

By Joyce Clark

Many things have changed, Since that day long ago, But the hearts of the people who called Moose Jaw “home”, Have stayed the same as time moved on.

The people so friendly, the farmers and all who came to the city In the spring and fall, The Indian people, summer camped in the valley, To prepare for the winter and again a long journey.

Came to trade with the settlers, brought blankets and beads, And all lived together in harmony.

These buildings that were built in 1881, After fire destroyed the very first ones, Had been the focus of Moose Jaw of late.

Our foundation for tourism, the opening gate.

The Joyner’s store, with its relics of old, The Tunnels of Moose Jaw, now flooded and cold.

The firefighters worked on through the night To save what they could in this terrible plight.

The men on the railroad saw many faces, Brought people together from far away places.

The wars, as they took their toll on families of young men so eager to go.

As they left, full of hope, leaving mothers to cry; the city embraced them as they carried on with life.

But when it was over, the fire had claimed The old Joyners’ store and historic cash system.

The Chow Building that had given us ice cream and treats, Was now only rubble, spewed onto the street.

Then people came in droves to the prairies, times were hard for all who came, from nations all over the world they settled under Moose Jaw’s name.

And the pioneer proved their worth, as insects and drought scourged the land, They helped one another as best they could.

Their music and laughter would shine.

They lived through devastation and hardships, And still smiling remembered good times.

The National Café sustained some damage alright, And the Cornerstone and Brewsters survived the night.

The Tunnels were spared, except for the water, Which can be pumped out and the tunnels used later.

Railroads and motor cars replaced horse and buggy, Combines and tractors on the land.

Electricity and running water in the city Made everything easier to bear.

But all faced new obstacles in a very different age.

Like commerce and subsidies and big business trade.

The people are the heart of our city today, And we will remember as we go on our way, That the hearts of the people from all over the world, Who came and called this city home Are the life-blood of Moose Jaw, a city that will last.

As we celebrate the future and reflect on the past.

For a city we talk about with pride, As we live here today and consider our past, We know we are fortunate to have family and friends, In one small city with a great big heart.

And hope, as we move forward into the next hundred years, Our children and grandchildren will feel the love Of a community of passion for all kinds of needs.

That will grow with the future, but remember our roots, And treat all people with love, care and truth.

One hundred years of Promise, Prosperity, Hope and Pride As we dealt with our feelings of others, and still remain friendly and kind, And hopeful and proud of the city that the hearts of the people have made, The city we call Moose Jaw, celebrate one hundred years today.

The firefighters worked hard in the days ahead, To contain the “hot spots” and keep things in check.

Working together, they would save A big part of Moose Jaw on those very cold days.

And now will begin the cleaning up time, For many, thoughts of rebuilding, getting on with life.

And as we move on, we’ll remember to build New buildings with a heritage appeal.

To blend with the past, look ahead to the future, Of another hundred years, who can say, maybe more.

And people will shop again At a new Joyners’ Store.

And have ice cream and treats, once again, as they stroll By the new buildings – built with the heart of the old.

And tourists will come to see what we’ve done, They will see Moose Jaw as a city of fun.

But we see our city as a place to call home, To love and protect from all kinds of harm.

And as we move on to the next century, We’ll remember our past, celebrate the present, And dream of the promise of the future to come.

We will truly be proud of our city.

November 16, 2018 Congratulations on an excellent “100th Anniversary Edition” commemorating the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War. Well documented with a strong local flavour.

I do wish to point out a significant local oversight on Page 31, the article covering Pte. William Johnstone Milne, VC. In addition to the tribute plaque at the Kirkland Farm referred to at the end of the article, in April of 2017 a pedestal, plaque, and flag were dedicated with considerable ceremony at William Milne Place (the old firehall at 136 Fairford St. W.) The event was covered by the Express.

The Victoria Cross is a very rare and distinguished award.

Only 99 have been awarded to Canadians since its inception in 1859; four of which were awarded to Canadians at Vimy Ridge, including Milne. To have an individual from our area so honoured and recognized in Moose Jaw is most worthy of full documentation at every opportunity.

Our household looks forward to receiving the Moose Jaw Express each week!

Kindest Regards, Phil Adkins

BMO harvest report expects continued low crop prices

By Ron Walter - For Agri-Mart Express

SIRLOIN BUTT ROASTS

AGRIMART

EXPRESS Oversupply of food commodities will take time to work out, leaving farmers across the globe with an undesirable outlook for most crop prices, says the Bank of Montreal annual harvest report.

“Supply remains a major headwind for pricing – and absent a major crop failure – today’s excessive stockpiles will take time to work down,” says the report.

Even with firm demand from global growth, recovery of crop markets “is likely to be subdued.”

Producers on both sides of the border will continue to be squeezed by rising costs, rising interest rates, faster wage growth and their impact on profitability.

While the increase in oil prices seems to have run its course, the report cautions that oil markets are vulnerable to political developments.

Another risk facing farmers comes from the possibility of continued strong global crops after six successive solid harvests.

Any further escalation of tariffs will weigh on crop prices, especially U.S. soybeans which tend to influence Canadian canola prices.

On the positive side, the report notes the USMCA trade agreement has taken much risk off the table, giving farmers continued opportunity to sell in the trade bloc.

Canada’s resurrection of the Trans-Pacific Trade Partnership is another positive sign for market access and demand, especially now that Canadian crops have an edge over the U.S. in TPTP markets.

The BMO report projects the biggest soybean crop ever in the U.S. – about 40 per cent more than five years ago.

Canadian farmers have a “tougher go” with estimated composite yields six per

Preparing for low prices cent below average.

Canola production is expected to take a step back this year while a jump in wheat acreage will boost that crop’s production.

Outside North America, growing conditions have left crops on trend, but conditions vary widely.

Overseas soybean production, buoyed by acreage increases, should reach a new high.

Overseas yields of wheat have been restrained by dry weather in the key regions of Europe, Black Sea and Australia. This has brought wheat production to a fouryear low with prices having some meaningful improvement this year.

Harvest from U.S. soybeans acres, up due to previous prices, face all-time high stocks plus a 10 per cent price drop from the 25 per cent tariff on exports.

The report says this has weighed on canola prices, reducing them by three per cent from lacklustre levels.

Global corn prices remain low even with a tight stock-to-use ratio. A 25 per cent increase in corn consumption during the last six years prevents the situation from being worse.

The report expects corn prices are some distance from meaningful elevation.

Saluting Saskatchewan’s Agriculture Industry

MLAs Column

Warren Michelson Moose Jaw North

Warren Michelson, MLA

Canadian Western Agribition is underway in Regina.

Growing up on the farm, I enjoy the atmosphere that promotes agriculture throughout the province during this time. There is an air of excitement and celebration walking through the barns and looking through the displays. The event is an international hub of agriculture excellence, hosting over 1,250 international guests from over 86 countries. Agribition is the largest livestock show in Canada. The livestock producers of Saskatchewan are showing their best, which is noteworthy on the world stage. The main focus is beef cattle but the show also features horses, bison, sheep, goats, and, this year

alpacas are also being featured. The show also includes displays of agriculture equipment and apparatus.

The festivities and entertainment are a delight for everyone; including those not directly involved in agriculture.

It is a very educational experience for over 8,000 students who attend the event. The milking demonstrations, as well as cattle dog and sheep dog demonstrations, are popular with the school groups. This year the familiar face of former Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall was there in a new capacity, as part of a panel on “Fuel, Food and Free Trade�.

The Government of Saskatchewan knows how important it is to work with and invest in the livestock industry. Last year, our government announced a renewed $200,000 partnership with Canadian Western Agribition that will provide $50,000 in funding annually until 2021.

The 2018-19 Saskatchewan Budget invested $378.6 million to help ensure a strong agriculture sector, including a record investment in agricultural research and continued strong support for business risk management programs such as Livestock Price Insurance and Crop Insurance.

Innovation has always been a key to the success of the livestock industry, and innovative initiatives continue.

Last month, representatives of the federal government, the University of Saskatchewan and the agriculture industry gathered to celebrate the grand opening of the Livestock and Forage Centre of Excellence, a world-class research and teaching facility funded in part by the federal-provincial Growing Forward 2 agreement. The $38 million Centre of Excellence includes the Beef Cattle Research Teaching Unit and the Forage Cow-Calf Research Teaching Unit, both located south of the community of Clavet.

Saskatchewan is one of Canada’s leading agri-food exporters with international sales of $13.6 billion in 2017.

This revenue accounts for 47 per cent of the province’s total exports.

We salute our industry partners and Canadian Western Agribition for all they do to promote the agriculture industry. Most importantly, we salute farmers and ranchers as they do the hard work of growing our food, caring for the land and growing our province.

SaskPower says energy efficient programs can save you money

By Sasha-Gay Lobban

SaskPower made a presentation in Moose Jaw recently to inform the public of their ongoing energy- efficient programs that can save you money both on residential and commercial properties.

The company is encouraging businesses and property owners to get involved with some of their programs they say are guaranteed to save you money on a long-term basis.

Megan Patterson, SaskPower Consultant, Program Planning and Customer programs, gave a detailed presentation outlining programs SaskPower has underway to help customers cut back on high electricity bills. She noted, the more energy efficient we are, the better it will be for everyone and the environment.

Patterson says the goal of SaskPower is to ultimately reduce greenhouse gas emissions. “Demand Side management is a key part of SaskPower’s long-term strategy to off-set the increase in demand and defer investment in new infrastructure. We have a vision of a shared cleaner energy future. Our goal is to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions from 2005 levels by 40 per cent by 2030. The easiest way to lower emissions is to use less power.�

The SaskPower Energy Efficiency Programs outlined are: Commercial Walk Through Energy Assessment: SaskPower will pay 90% of the cost to have a qualified energy advisory go through a property and identify opportunities for the customer to be more efficient and save money on their power bills. The customer will receive a report with recommendations, payback periods, a presentation

SaskPower’s Megan Patterson. and will be directed to any other relevant incentive programs that are offered. This program was developed for customers who have an annual power bill of ~$30,000 or more.

Online Energy Assessment for Businesses: This tool will allow customers to see an estimated breakdown of the factors that contribute to their total energy costs and highlight steps they can take to decrease usage and costs.

Commercial Lighting Incentive Program: This program provides incentives on select, premium energy-efficiency

Â

products to help business lower their electricity costs.

Commercial Refrigeration Program: This helps you save money when you buy new, efficient refrigeration products like refrigerators, freezers, display cases, strip curtains, auto door closers and much more.

Commercial Energy Optimization Program: This is a custom program for larger commercial customers who use over $45,000/year in power. SaskPower will help to create a plan to improve efficiencies and save money and provide incentive dollars to help make the plan a reality.

SaskPower Efficiency Partner Program: This is a free program made up of a group of companies who help customers make energy efficiency choices in products and services. The benefits of membership include the ability to use SaskPower Efficiency Partners tag, being informed about programs and getting access to training by industry experts.

Net Metering Program: Generate your own power and save money by using renewable energy technologies. A one-time rebate of 20% of eligible installation and equipment cost to a maximum of $20,000 is available until November 30th’18. The power generated can be used to offset your consumption.

Online Energy Assessment for Homes: The majority of business owners are also home owners. This tool illustrates the factors that contribute to energy costs, provides general consumption information and ways to save on utility bills.

Find out more about these programs and how you can get involved at saskpower.com.

“A Christmas Long Ago” at the Western Development Museum

by Sasha-Gay Lobban

The Western Development Museum (WDM) is inviting families to “A Christmas Long Ago” on Saturday, December 15 and Saturday, December 22nd.

The Museum will highlight how Christmas was celebrated in early Saskatchewan.

The WDM says “A Christmas Long Ago” is an opportunity for people to learn about the festive season in Saskatchewan long ago; the type of gifts that were given, and an opportunity to make old-fashioned crafts.

The Museum says this is the second year hosting this program. “Last year, the program was originally intended strictly for school groups. However, due to overwhelming interest from the community, we made the program open to the public for two Saturdays in December,” said Karla Rasmussen, Education Coordinator at WDM. Rasmussen says persons should register for the program as soon as possible. “Following last year’s success, we are again hosting individual school groups, as well as two public dates in December

- Caring for Your Feet -

Foot Problem?

Who Can You See? Dr. Ata Stationwala

Navigating the health care system and all the different options available to you can be a challenge. Over the past 2 years, in Saskatchewan, there has been a significant funding shift

2018. The public dates are December 15 and 22, with two sessions each day at 10:00 am and 2:00 pm. Pre-registration is required as space is limited.

Once registered, further information about the program will be emailed to participants closer to the date of their selected program.”

Families will receive a welcome and brief orientation when they arrive at the Museum for the program. Attendees are encouraged to wear old-fashioned clothing (suspenders, bow ties, aprons, long dresses, overalls, etc.) to help get into the spirit of the program. “Following the welcome, we do some” time travelling” and go back to the year 1910, where we will make our way to Grandmother and Grandfather’s home in rural Saskatchewan during the holiday season,” she added.

Visitors will sit down in the “parlour and kitchen”, decorated in period-appropriate props and artifacts, and hear a story about how a family celebrated Christmas over one hundred years ago in Saskatchewan. Through photos and hands-on artifacts,

for residents seeking podiatry care.

Prior to the 2016 provincial budget, podiatry services offered through health regions were subsidized. Before March of 2016, the government felt there was value in providing podiatry care to residents of this province.

That changed when, along with many other programs, podiatry funding was cut. The result of the cut has caused a service shift. It has forced an environment where Saskatchewan residents with foot problems have pursued less costly options. It has led to a danger-

visitors will see how much has changed and what has remained the same in the traditions that are followed. During the interactive program, there are opportunities for the young visitors to take part in age-appropriate comparison discussions; children will also get to help decorate the tree and see what gifts were given more than a century ago.

“At the end of the story, visitors ill have the chance to try some reproduction woodentoys that were popular in the early1900s, and to make a Christmas card craft usingrecycled materials and items that would have been available at that time,” Rasmussen explained.

Following the craft, visitors are invited to stay for hot chocolate and cookies, and then are free to explore the Museum galleries on their own.

(Visitors need to allow a minimum of 1.5 to 2 hours for their entire visit.)

This program is recommended for ages 5 years and up, and families are welcome to attend as a group.

ous health care environment. Do your homework. The last thing you want is to have care done and develop an infection because the proper standards weren’t met. Health Canada requires any health care worker providing foot care to use sterile instruments. The gold standard of sterilization is steam sterilization. Don’t be fooled by the fancy packaging that the instruments come in. Just because they’ve been packaged doesn’t mean they were steam sterilized. If not handled by a licensed health care provider, then the

standards may not be the same and you need to ask questions. Actually, even if they are a licensed health care provider you need to ask questions.

Be an informed consumer. Depending on your needs, you have some options. Some foot care providers have taken considerable training, others have not. I have treated many patients who present with problems as a result of improper care from other care providers. Don’t become one of them.

Take your foot care health into your own hands.

Rare pottery auction benefits Crescent Park

By Ron Walter For Moose Jaw Express

A rare piece of pottery commemorating the 100th year since the First World War ended is being auctioned for charity in Moose Jaw. The one-of-a-kind Moorcroft pottery vase, titled Recessional, was made only for Moorcroft’s Saskatchewan dealer, Players Collectibles.

Proceeds from the auction, which closes Dec. 30, will go to the Crescent Park Foundation. The foundation funds park improvements.

“This is the first time Moorcroft has done a piece for fundraising outside of the U.K.,” said Dale Harvey, co-owner of Players.

The Recessional name taken from a Rudyard Kipling poem depicts the reality of warfare with a serene reminder of the return to nature and renewal of life after death.

The Kerry Goodwin art work features a tank — an armour ma-

chine first used in the First World War in 1916 during the Battle of Flers-Courcelette.

The use of tanks broke the trench warfare stalemate, giving their drivers increased mobility.

Poppies, the Lest We Forget symbol of Remembrance, dominate all sides of the vase with a background of trenches and silhouettes of soldiers with guns and bayonets.

The first bid on the vase was $500. Harvey estimates retail value of this one-of-a-kind vase between $1,100 and $1,200.

Moorcroft’s fine art pottery goes back to England in 1897. The company specializes in limited edition and numbered edition art pottery.

BIZWORLD

By Ron Walter For Moose Jaw Express

Some rules to consider when buying interest-bearing securities Back in the late 1980s, interest rates from bank savings accounts ranged in the six to seven per cent range – an event that much of our population has never experienced.

Today interest rates from bank savings accounts are a paltry range between a fraction of one per cent and 1.5 per cent. Savers everywhere, particularly retired persons, would love to see higher savings rates.

Some seek better rates at their own peril, becoming victims of scam artists who promise huge returns and disappear with victims’ money, Rule number one about interest on savings: The higher the interest rate, the more the risk of losing your interest or even principal.

You may not be getting much from the bank, but principal is pretty safe.

There is an outfit advertising an average 7.2 per cent return on your money. They achieve that rate by investing money you lend them in mortgages.

Their ad asserts: What safer place than mortgages?

Ask the millions of North American investors who ploughed into mortgage type securities before the 2008 recession if they would do it again. Likely not.

Billions of dollars were lost when the housing market crashed and mortgage holders quit paying installments.

Foreclosing on properties was useless because housing values dropped like a rock.

Rule number two about interest on savings: If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

For savers seeking better interest rates, bonds may seem an option.

Yours Truly is reminded of a conversation in the early 1990s with a friend who sold his farm and retired. Interest rates were headed down at that time.

The bank had suggested he buy some Saskatchewan government bonds, and he was thinking about it. The interest rate was much higher than his savings account.

“Are they guaranteed savings bonds?” I asked.

He wasn’t sure and wanted to know why I asked.

There were two kinds of government bonds then — a savings bond that guaranteed the principal and a bond where value changed with interest rates.

Saskatchewan and Canada have since discontinued the guaranteed principal bonds.

The market rate bonds sold by government then and now change value as interest rates change. They will increase in value if interest rates go down but decrease in value as interest rates go up.

Example: you buy a $1,000 bond with three per cent in-

terest rate. The market interest rate in these bonds shifts to 3.25 per cent after you buy the bond.

If you need to sell the bond, that $30 annual interest payment is worth 3.25 per cent to the buyer. That prices your $1,000 bond at around $920 for an eight per cent haircut on your investment.

Rule number three about interest on savings: If you buy bonds with fluctuating values be prepared to hold to maturity.

Savers who desperately need higher interest rates might explore what are called short-term bond funds. Offered as mutual funds or as exchange traded funds, these funds are pools of different bonds, thus reducing the risk of picking a bond in the wrong company.

The main advantage of these bond funds comes from the term of bonds they hold. Mostly, they hold only bonds with a two-year to five-year term.

Investors find it a lot easier to be stuck with a bond for two to five years instead of 10 or 20 years.

CAUTION: Remember when investing, consult your adviser and do your homework before buying any security.

Bizworld does not recommend investments.

Artist finds a home in guild Matthew Gourlie

The Moose Jaw Art Guild is a place where developing artists can find support, advice and a community.

“This is the kind of thing I’ve been looking for forever,” said Heidi Bengry, a member of the local art guild.

“I tried some university classes in art, but they wanted me to do their thing rather than giving me feedback on my thing. In a group like this, we can bounce ideas off of each other and some of our meetings are programs where somebody comes in and does a demo or we workshop something.

Even outside of our monthly meetings, we have a facebook group just for our guild members where we can post our works in progress and ask for advice.

“And when I’ve run out of black, there’s always someone who has black paint for me.”

Bengry had a pair of works on display at the Guild’s annual art show “Unleashed” that opened on Nov. 8 at the Moose Jaw Museum & Art Gallery and will run until Jan. 6.

It is the 51st annual Moose Jaw Art Guild show, and features works from

their 17 members. Visitors to the exhibit can also vote for the ‘people’s choice award’ for their favourite piece in the exhibit.

Bengry grew up in the Northwest Territories and Alberta before spending the past decade in Moose Jaw. She draws a lot of inspiration from the natural world.

Her piece ‘Silent Hunter’ features a starkly lit owl, while ‘Morning Run’ sees a horse in the morning mist.

“I see so much beauty in the wild things. I love the wild things,” Bengry said. “I raised horses for a good number of years and so that’s an inspiration too. When I first picked up a pencil, I was drawing wolves and horses.

Every time I go to the grocery store, while walking through the produce department, I walk past section that has a few odd, and sometimes scary looking, items. One particularly ominous looking “leaf” is from the aloe vera plant. I have seen some of these leaves on occasion to be quite big, maybe 2 to 3 feet in length. I’ve often wondered who the heck is buying these things and what are they doing with them once they get them home?

Many years ago, when my wife and I moved into our new clinic, we were blessed with many gifts celebrating our opening. One gift, from a very sweet elderly lady, was a small, potted aloe vera plant (nowhere near the monstrosity I have seen in the grocery store!). Little did we know at the time, that this small gesture would end up being the gift that would keep on giving.

That meek and mild little succulent, sat by the window in our waiting room for more than a decade providing benefit to anyone who would ask.

Occasionally a patient would request to take a sprig home to grow for their own. Once in a while someone would ask to take a leaf to use for their own healthful purpose.

“For me, there has to be something alive in it -- an animal of some sort.

If it’s just mountains and a lake, yeah that’s beautiful, but unless there’s a deer in front or something then I have no interest in doing it.”

Bengry has been painting for 20 years but has been drawing since she could hold a pencil. As she develops, she is using starker imagery and more contrast in her paintings. She is also challenging herself with different techniques.

“Birds are harder for me. I don’t like feathers. Fur you can fudge it,” she said. “I fought with that owl. That owl fought me every inch.

“I absolutely love contrast. Lately I’ve been playing around with a completely black background, and then just light on the back of a horse or on his wings -- just the faintest highlights. Just enough so you can tell what it is.”

The guild exhibition features different styles and artists at different stages of their development. There are sculptures, pencil sketches, folk art, acrylic paintings and abstracts.

Those who took a piece of aloe would squeeze out the plant gel and use it for minor skin irritations, burns and cold sores. I’ve done some reading about the health benefits and aloe’s potential goes far beyond just soothing external ouches.

I was quite impressed with the amount of literature representing research on how aloe vera may help a number of health conditions. Biological activity of aloe vera (in various dosages and extracts) have included anti-tumor, anti-carcinogenic, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-ulcer and even anti-diabetic activity.

That’s a lot of “Antis”!

Now I am not saying replace your insulin or chemotherapy with aloe vera.

I just think there must be something to this natural plant that maybe mainstream medicine is overlooking.

The benefits of aloe vera, or desert cactus as it is often called, have been recorded since biblical times. “Aloes and myrrh”, as written in the bible, as how Christ was wrapped when he was removed from the cross. The medicinal values of aloe have been reported for centuries, in many different countries and societies.

I like to think that Mother Nature provides us with all we need for good health and healing, if we just look close enough. I think about this every time I walk by that 2-foot tentacle of aloe vera and when I think about the plant in our window that helped so many people.

Now I am waiting to see if anyone brings us a marijuana plant.

Your dream home awaits ... dream home

City Hall Council Notes

Petition presented at council

Service that is personal, honest and professional

Randy Palmer Moose Jaw Express

The Downtown Facility and Field House controversy was once again centre stage at Moose Jaw city council on Nov. 13, as a petition for the removal of councillor Brian Swanson was presented, received and filed.

Moose Jaw resident Jody Chell created the petition on change.org, with just under 900 people signing as of press time.

Chell called for Swanson’s resignation by the upcoming council meeting on Nov. 27, based on that support and the wide variety of comments left by signatories.

Chell felt the removal of the personnel files from the DFFH was a violation of city bylaw 5530 with regards to disclosing or releasing private information acquired through their office, as well as acquiring private benefit from information acquired in the course of their duties.

Swanson was a representative of council and chairman of the DFFH board when the files were removed.

Mayor Fraser Tolmie spoke to the issue, specifically to a statement from Swanson that was recently published in the Moose Jaw Express, saying that given how grave the situation was, the files should have remained onsite and there were other options to dealing with the situation. He reiterated that once the matter was brought to council’s attention, their reaction was swift and all possible was done to resolve things as quickly as possible.

Tolmie said, when asked about his comments, “When council takes sanctions on colleagues, there’s a seriousness to it, and we had to take emotion out of it... it had gone on for far too long, but there was no rush decision on this. We had discussions; we had more than one outside legal opinion on this and we had an outside investigator. That’s how you deal with these matters, and that’s how it should have been dealt with in the first place. When we were alerted, we stepped in swiftly.

“The comments that this was a rushed and emotional decision are certainly not true, we acted swiftly but according to the processes in place,” he added.

Council reacted to the petition the only way possible – a simple receive and file.

“Members of the community are allowed to speak to council; we live in a free, democratic society and Ms. Chell decided to bring a petition forward, which is a non-binding petition,” Tolmie said. “People of the community are allowed to do that.

“We have no role to play in the petition; it’s a community driven petition and council has no role. We placed sanctions against the councillors that were on the DFFH board and that is the extent of our authority.”

Swanson himself addressed the petition.

“There has been no breach of confidentiality or release of confidential material in my part,” he said. “What there have been are numerous examples of jumping to erroneous conclusions and false accusations of wrongdoing. At all times during my tenure on the DFFH board, I acted to the best of my ability and strived to govern the facilities in the best interest of the DFFH and the facility, as did I believe the entire board.” **** The paving of a strip of Oak Street next to the Ross School subdivision was once again back on council’s plate.

Coun. Swanson brought forth a recommendation that only the unpaved portion

from Fourth Ave N.E. to just beyond the Copper Ridge Way access to the subdivision be paved; the current plan runs from Fourth Ave N.E. to Wolfe Ave. He expected the cost savings to be significantly lower than the $121,000 currently earmarked for the project from the Ross School Subdivision Land Funds.

Mayor Tolmie pointed out that a common complaint in the city is ‘filling a pothole when one is right next to it’, with residents preferring to see the whole street taken care of at once.

The report from city manager Jim Puffalt, after discussions with the subdivision developer, was the city pay for the first run of asphalt and the second lift of asphalt be placed and paid for by the developer at a future phase of development.

The report was tabled and filed. **** Moose Jaw resident Michel Labonte spoke to council and brought up three matters: -- asking that the city consider using e-mail and letters to address council since some people are unable to or don’t want to speak in the public forum; -- that the city not implement the ‘13 Ways to Kill and Community’ report, given that the costs haven’t be revealed and spending money on what amounts to a slogan change would be a waste -- thanked Coun. Swanson for his work to keep costs down and his dedication to working for the taxpayer.

Mayor Fraser Tolmie thanked Labonte for his comments and his ongoing dedication to the community, seeing he’s seen him cross Main Street to pick up garbage and that his commitment to the city is something we should respect. **** Former Moose Jaw city councillor Don Mitchell closed the meeting during the public forum with special recognition of George Price, the last soldier killed in the Second World War. Price, who hailed from Nova Scotia but worked in Moose Jaw as a farm labourer and with the railway, entered the war through conscription in Oct. 1917 and served with the 28th Northwest Batallion.

He was scouting German machine gun positions on Nov. 11 when he was shot through the heart by a sniper and died at 10:59 a.m., two minutes before the armistice officially took hold.

“The end of World War I 100 years ago may seem remote and unrelated to the challenges of society and politics today, but that’s not the case,” Mitchell said.

“The war’s sacrifice is personalized by the life and death of Private George Price, a highly celebrated hero in Mons, Belgium, where he was killed and buried.”

Price’s death has been held as a symbol of so many others who lost their lives in the horrific slaughter of the time, as more than 60,000 Canadians died in the war before Price’s final sacrifice.

“In Mons, George Price is recognised as a hero,” Mitchell said. “A footbridge and a school are named for him; his family travelled to visit his gravesite and were welcomed by city officials.”

Mitchell ended his presentation with a reading of The Song of the Pacifist by Robert W. Service and was greeted with applause from the council gallery upon conclusion.

The making of Peggy

Special fundraising tour takes art patrons through Julienne Atelier Foundry and the works of Joe Fafard.

Randy Palmer

A special fundraising tour of the Julienne Atelier Foundry in Pense was recently conducted by the Moose Jaw Museum and Art Gallery, with the goal of making sure the gallery’s most famous resident – Peggy, a 700-pound bronze sculpture of a calf created by famed artist Joe Fafard -- stays part of their collection forever.

See the accompanying article for more on the success of the fundraising plan. Here is a look at the various steps that brought Peggy to ‘life’, as seen through the work of Fafard and the Foundry’s many other ongoing projects.

The level of detail in the bronzework art by Joe Fafard can be astonishing, as seen in this facial sculpture.

Aiming to keep Peggy The Moose Jaw Museum and Art Gallery has a rather interesting problem that it would most certainly rather not face.

Just how do you return a 700-pound, seven-foot-tall sculpture of a horse that took a feat of engineering and manpower just to get it into the building where it’s exhibited?

The answer? You don’t. You buy it. It’s a Joe Fafard bronze sculpture, so you beam with pride that it’s part of your collection.

That’s the plan in place for a local art installation, with a recent tour of the Julienne Atelier foundry in Pense – the birthplace of Fafard’s bronzeworks, including Peggy the horse herself – acting as a major fundraiser for the purchase of the $100,000 sculpture.

The newest foundry exploration took place on Nov. 10 and featured an in-depth walk-through by foundry manager Phil Tremblay of the various bronze-casting processes. Originating at the Slate Fine Art Gallery in Regina, patrons proceeded to Pense and returned for a reception after the tour.

“It’s been great,” said Jennifer McRorie, MJMAG cura-

torial director. “It’s a chance for people to see the whole process of how a bronze sculpture comes about and it really gives appreciation for the final product because you can see how much work goes into a sculpture.

People can admire just how much work Peggy was and how incredible it is to have her in our gallery.”

The story of just how Peggy came to arrive at the gallery is rather entertaining – an exhibition of Fafard’s lazer-cut steel sculptures was set to take place at the MJMAG, and the Slate Gallery was asked if they could stage an exhibition of his bronzework at the same time.

Fafard brought them a selection of his work, all right.

It arrived in a horse trailer and required a forklift and some serious finagling to get Peggy into place in downstairs in the MJMAG lobby.

“And then Joe made a joke ‘now that we’ve got her down here, you’re going to have to buy her or find a way of getting her back to me’,” McRorie said. “We had a good laugh, but then I started thinking ‘maybe we should buy her’, because we actually have only one Joe Fafard sculpture in our collection; it’s an older piece. And you see a lot of art galleries getting larger pieces, the McK-

So we’re trying to increase our visibility in the community and it’s a way of adding to the beauty of the city, just for people to discover a sculpture like that in their day to day activities” Around 40 patrons took part in the most recent tour; the first took place from Moose Jaw last summer and featured about 50 supporters. And while the tours brought in some funds, the awareness was more important, ideally resulting in bigger things to come.

“We’re going to start a campaign where people can start gifting and we’re going to create a donor wall where we can recognize the people who contributed to the project,” McRorie said. “There is talk of putting her outside in the park, but right now we’re keeping her in the building and we’ll see where it goes... we’re hoping with things like this, people will want to come and check her out. It’s just wonderful seeing the families and kids and how they react to her and we’re looking forward to that for years to come.”

Go Fun(d) Me

DOWN ON THE

CORNER

Some folks, that shall remain nameless to protect myself, have accused me of being cheap, miserly, tight-fisted, penny-pinching and to my horror…stingy. I greatly prefer the word…parsimonious, which in realiby Dale “bushy” ty means cheap, miserly, Bush tight-fisted, penny-pinching and stingy. I am frugal and consider myself to be thrifty and if I can save a few bucks I will make the effort. When I heard about this interwwweb site that can help folks out when they need a hand, I needed to investigate a little deeper…providing it did not cost me anything.

The first thing I discovered was that there are people and groups who really need this online service. When it’s well managed, it can definitely ease the financial burden of medical or disastrous events. That is a good thing! Of course, when there is anything that involves raising money for good causes, there will be someone (I will keep my name secret to protect my identity), who will try to scam the system to put a few bucks in their wallets.

I was out of beer a few days ago, with an empty bank account, and the first thing I thought of was to start a go-fund-me account to buy a case

of Pilsner and maybe some ripple chips and nuts for snacks. Then I read that it took some time to be paid, so I decided it might be easier to cash in some of my BCRF (Beer Can Retirement Fund) for more immediate satisfaction. I will save starting a go-fund-me page for something more serious, like a Jamaican vacation. I thought a beer fund was a great idea. Sadly, it did not take me too many clicks and scrolls on the interwwweb to find people who have started go-fund-me pages for beer and vacations.

What a bunch of scammers! I don’t want to be associated with them, but I kind of admired their nerve. That was when I had a brilliant idea that uses my vast education, all 4 years of grade 8. That idea was to start an “honest” funding site for beer and vacations called Go-Scam-Me. Instead of using up space on legitimate sites raising needed money for a medically or event challenged person or persons, scammers can keep to themselves.

Go-Scam-Me would be able to provide a site for the real lady that honestly stated she needed new implants in her breasts. When I “investigated,” I could not find any photographic evidence to decide whether or not to donate or if, in my opinion, she need “them”. I did find another lady whose photo demonstrated that she would be able to qualify for Go-Scam-Me’s strict scamish requirements. Her page was a request for $3000 to have a tattoo of a third eye on

her forehead removed. I am sure this is a scam because I could easily and quickly remove her tattoo with a belt sander for about a hundred bucks…and a few dollars for bandages. These were small-time Go-Scam-Me requests compared to the guy who wanted to adopt an abandoned race horse and then would need a half million dollar ranch and expensive equipment for equine maintenance, not to mention a goat to keep the horse company. What a great idea, and what nerve!

Of course, I joke and jest, but in reality, a high proportion of fund-raising pages produce the desired charitable effect and are used responsibly and with dignity. We should be able to follow each and every one of our donated dollars with transparency to ensure the funds are used as intended.

Unfortunately, this is a new way to raise funds. There is a need to regulate and legislate, and we can only hope for fairness and logic. Donate wisely.

A doctor once told his patient: “If it tastes good, spit it out.”

But with all of today’s opportunities to try new and different foods, it must be possible to find foods that will qualify for heart-smart, kidney-friendly diets. Label reading becomes a must-do activity during the trek to the grocery store as shoppers attempt to figure out if high potassium content is worse than high sodium amounts.

This week’s recipes are offered from various sources as permitted dishes that would possibly adhere to a diet for a kidney patient.

••• Vegetable Casserole 1 tsp. olive oil 1/2 cup frozen peas 1/2 cup green pepper chunks 1/2 cup diced onion 8 oz. liquid egg whites 1/8 tsp. black pepper 1 dash paprika Heat olive oil in a frying pan. Lightly sauté vegetables. Add egg white

liquid and sprinkle with pepper and paprika. Cover and cook on medium heat until centre is firm. Divide and serve while hot.

••• Angel Hair Pasta and Chicken 1 tsp. olive oil 1 tbsp. minced garlic 1 large red bell pepper, slivered 3/4 can sliced water chestnuts, optional 1 cup snap pea pods 1 cup cooked, diced chicken 1 tbsp. onion powder 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper 1 pinch sea salt 1 can low fat chicken broth 2-8 oz. pkgs. angel hair pasta In a large skillet, heat olive oil on medium high heat. Add garlic powder, water chestnuts and pea pods. Reduce to medium low and cover. Cook for 5 minutes.

Add chicken, onion powder, pepper and salt. Cover and cook 5 minutes longer.

Cook pasta according to package directions.

In another saucepan, heat chicken broth to a near boil. Pour hot broth into the chicken mixture in the skillet and toss. If chicken and sauce seem too runny, add a bit of starch dissolved in water and add to hot broth. Serve while hot over angel hair pasta.

••• Pineapple Protein Smoothie 3/4 cup pineapple sherbert or sorbet 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder 1/2 cup water 2 ice cubes, optional Blend ingredients for 30-45 seconds. If protein powder sticks to the side of the blender, turn off and use a spatula to loosen powder.

Replace lid and blend until smooth. If a milkshake consistency is desired, place smoothie in freezer for 5 minutes.

Amy Jane Chartered Professional Accountant finds home in Moose Jaw Sasha-Gay Lobban

Newly established business Amy Jane Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) is looking forward to building long-term relationships with local clients as it opened its doors this past summer.

Amy Jane CPA offers a wide range of services for individuals, small businesses and corporate entities who want to establish a strong foundation to better understand and manage their businesses.

Amy Jane Chartered Professional Accountant is a licensed accounting firm registered with CPA Saskatchewan permitted to offer services to the public in all areas of expertise for the accounting profession, including assurance, financial accounting, management and management accounting, finance and taxation.

CPA Saskatchewan is a self-regulating body that ensures the protection of the public.

The firm was established by Amy Jane Lunov, a designated accountant since 2004 with a reputation for quality work.

Lunov has over 20 years experience working in the industry, government, not-for-profits and public practice. In addition, she has 10 years experience giving back to her vocation through academia and is currently involved in instructing auditing and accounting courses at SaskPolytechnic and the CPA Western School of Business.

Lunov has opted to establish her practice in Moose Jaw, saying that there is a market to provide a ‘traditional style’ business model which sees the company establishing and maintaining long-term relationships with clients, meeting all their accounting needs and providing appropriate consulting services. “We opened up in August. I just moved to Moose Jaw last year and I think it is a good opportunity for an

accounting office. Areas that I’m interested in servicing are: community and not-for-profit groups that are not able to acquire good accounting services at reasonable rates from larger firms; Daycare, Churches, Sports Organizations that need to have their audits done to either receive grants from the government. So, auditing is one of the services I am offering, not just for not-for-profit organizations but anyone or business that may need that service,� Lunov outlined. “Another area is small to medium size businesses, providing assurance work—preparation of financial statements and tax preparation (corporate & personal).

I also offer book keeping services: companies looking for assistance in terms of providing a strong foundation to better understand and manage their businesses.�

She says she wants to cater to the local market and get deeply involved with the community. “My focus is really just on providing services for the local market—Moose Jaw and Area and be available. I want to follow a more traditional model where when clients need help, there is someone local to assist them and not just wait until the end of the year for someone to do their finances and taxes. My philosophy in business is about building relationships. I am looking for clients whom I can build a strong foundation with, whatever services they may need and the day-to-day as well as providing those year-end services at lower cost to clients and a better understanding overtime of their financial affairs— whether that be personal or business.�

With an extensive and impressive background in accounting, Lunov says her company is able to meet any and every accounting need that clients may have. “I have a background in Accounting and Computer Science, so I am well-versed in various accounting software packages such as Sage, QuickBook, QuickBook Online Tax Prep, as well as Microsoft Excel. I’ve invested a lot in myself over the years, staying current on accounting and computer systems and I have a genuine interest in figuring things out and developing lasting relationships overtime. I have enough experience where I can advise people appropriately. I am looking forward to serving the local community.�

Lunov also comes with accounting teaching experience. “I’ve been teaching at the University of Regina and Sask. Polytechnic for a number of years, so I have a strong interest in academics too. I try to stay current on different areas. I’m licensed by the Institute of Chartered Professional Ac-

countants, so basically the role of the CPA is to protect the public by making sure their members are providing good services to the clients and public.

As such, I’ve been part of the Institute which means I’m subjected to inspections and reviews that makes sure I am qualified to do the work I am doing,� she said. “I have about 20 years experience working in public practice; different accounting firms; I worked in the Federal and Provincial Government—Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Educations, Elections. After many years of accounting experience, I wanted to go out on my own and work with people, providing these services at a reasonable cost.�

For Lunov, accounting has been a long-standing passion and she is looking forward to sharing her expertise with Moose Jaw. “I really love accounting and I’m hoping to be able to provide lasting business to the community and provide some value-added services. I’m hoping to offer scalable solutions to people’s financial needs, so as to help them grow or divest their business overtime.�

Amy Jane CPA also offers services for persons with different language needs.

They offer services in Polish, Russian, Ukrainian and French.

Amy Jane CPA is located at #5 -825 Thatcher Drive. They are open Monday to Friday, 8am-5pm (any other days by special appointment). For more information, you can call (306) 691-1300 or Fax: 306-691-1301 or Email: cpa@amyjane.ca

REFLECTIVE MOMENTS Snowbirds, cadets and public bond at dinner A contingent of Snowbird leaders, pilots and air maintenance crew members were the stars of a recent banquet held in Regina, an evening dedicated to the No. 431 Squadron.

And hanging on their every word and acknowledgement were 16 Air Cadets from Regina and Indian Head, their attendance Joyce Walter sponsored by various For Moose Jaw Express supporters of 600 Wing RCAF Association in Regina. The 15 Wing Fellowship sponsored two cadets for the occasion.

It was an evening with emphasis on military aviation, stories of high flight exploits and an opportunity for Snowbirds, cadets and other air enthusiasts to mingle in a relaxed social atmosphere.

Lt.-Col. Mike French, commanding officer of the Snowbirds spoke eloquently of the role of the Snowbirds, the excitement at being selected as a team member after a rigorous selection process, the responsibility to represent

the Canadian military throughout Canada and the United States, and the way in which youngsters view them as role models.

He encouraged the cadets to follow their dreams, noting that quite often the mention of cadet membership on a job application will be the deciding factor in being hired.

French said cadets learn so many skills that are put to use in later life.

He also emphasized that despite the entertainment value of the demonstration team, each and every member has been trained to answer the call for regular military duty wherever they are needed. He mentioned the sobering reality that even as the Snowbirds entertain, they are aware that accidents happen and that team members and support staff have lost their lives in the performance of their duties.

The brotherhood and sisterhood of the squadron was evident as several former members provided highlights of their inclusion on the Snowbirds’ team, many of whom have gone on to become commercial airline pilots or have other jobs in aviation companies.

Cadets had some insightful questions for the squadron members: Have there ever been women as Snowbirds? Yes, Capt.

Sarah Dallaire is Snowbird 2, the second woman to be se-

lected for her flying expertise. As a young girl she adopted Maryse Carmichael as her role model. Lt.-Col. (Retired) Carmichael was the first woman selected for the team and went on to be the team’s commanding officer.

What’s it like flying over water? French mentioned over-water flight is entirely different than flying over land, and from the right angle, the water below looks like a deep, black hole.

What show did you enjoy the most? Several members mentioned flying at the Canada Day celebrations in Ottawa, others, the Canadian National Exhibition and others, the Abbotsford Air Show.

What do you like about being a Snowbird? Meeting people from all over the country, and getting to see so much of Canada, was one response. Performing for our friends and family, said another.

How will you celebrate the Snowbirds’ 50th anniversary?

There will be an air show, Chief Warrant Officer Greg Fleet, answered. Another member sidestepped a definite answer saying the details were above his pay grade.

Another highlight of the evening was dessert — served at each table by a member of the squadron. And if one asked nicely, a second slice of cake was made available with a wink and a smile.

Police and Crisis Team (PACT) officially launched in Moose Jaw Sasha-Gay Lobban

A new Police and Crisis Team (PACT) has been officially launched in Moose Jaw, joining about three other communities in Saskatchewan.

The PACT was announced at the Moose Jaw Police Headquarters on Thursday, November 15. The team will help to improve how front-line policing services respond to people in mental health crisis situations.

Corrections and Policing Minister Christine Tell joined representatives of the Saskatchewan Health Authority, the Moose Jaw Police Service, and the community for the official launch. Tell says this is a significant step in the community to address mental health crisis by providing 24-hour support. “The PACT program helps us respond to people with complex mental health challenges within our communities,” Tell said. “It is a unique way of handling police calls for mental health crisis situations and directing clients to the right services.”

Tell noted that after a year, the ministry will make assessments to the team to better serve each community. “PACT is definitely growing and we’re going to take a year from the time the team started in Moose Jaw to assess what happens and decide how we’re going to move forward. I don’t see this program ending but overtime it will change to accommodate the needs of each individual community. Police services are the only 24-hour service delivery in most cities and they’re the ones responding to these calls after hours and the nature of the calls do involve people experiencing mental health crisis or addiction issues that need immediate attention and immediate care. With a person working with them, they can lead them to the re-

- Regina provided 658 interventions and diverted 192 patients from the emergency department.

Corrections and Policing Minister Christine Tell is joined by Mayor Fraser Tolmie, Greg Lawrence, Chief Rick Bourassa, Saskatchewan Health Authority’s Mary Lee Booth and Councillor Crystal Froese for the launch of PACT in Moose Jaw.

sources they need at that time instead of going to emergency rooms in cases that do not require a trip to the hospital. The 24-hr operation goes hand-in-hand with the mental health professional.”

She added that the province allocated $980,000 to form PACTs in the province. “Between the Ministry of Health and Corrections and Policing, we put in about $980,000.” PACTs are a collaborative effort between the Saskatchewan Health Authority and local police services. Members of the Moose Jaw Police Service are paired with a mental health professional to respond to individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. The goal is to provide the right kind of care to people who are better-served within the community, avoiding emergency department visits and entry into the criminal justice system.

“Police and Crisis Teams change the way mental health crisis situations are handled,” Health Minister Jim Reiter said. “The new Police and Crisis Team in Moose Jaw reflects our government’s commitment to improving mental health services for people across Saskatchewan.”

The Saskatchewan Health Authority and the Ministry of Corrections and Policing say PACTs are already making a difference in Saskatoon and Regina, and another was recently launched in Prince Albert. Additional units will be launched in North Battleford and Yorkton in the coming months.

Between April 2017 and June 2018: - Saskatoon PACTs provided 922 interventions and diverted 234 patients from the emergency department.

“The launch of the Police and Crisis Team is an important step in providing additional supports for some of the most vulnerable members of our community,” Integrated Community Health Programs – Community Health Services Transition Lead Mary Lee Booth said.

“They will assist vulnerable people with crisis support, stabilization and crisis de-escalation. They will also connect these people to the appropriate services.

Since Moose Jaw PACT has been implemented, they have responded to 31 related situations that the team has had to respond to and that is in a two-month period. We’re already seeing an impact.”

Moose Jaw Police Chief Rick Bourassa said the crisis team is an important addition to the police service. “The Police and Crisis Team is a significant addition to community safety and wellbeing. We welcome this collaborative partnership, which gives us the ability to provide more effective and efficient services to those who are most in need.”

The Government of Saskatchewan is investing $980,000 in 2018-19 for new PACT programs. The Ministry of Health funding for this expansion comes from the Canada-Saskatchewan Bilateral Funding Agreement. Announced in January 2017, the federal government is providing Saskatchewan with close to $350 million over 10 years for targeted incremental investments in home and community care and mental health and addiction services.

Vanier Spirits, Vikings advance to city finals Commanding wins pave way for double-final showing for school Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express

The Vanier Spirits and Vikings girls and boys volleyball teams have had their share of tough seasons in the past – more losses than wins, early playoff exits, all the hallmarks of a team trying to find success and just coming up short.

Those days, it seems, are long past.

Both teams posted straight-sets wins in their respective Moose Jaw high school league semifinals on Nov. 15 – the Spirits taking a 3-0 (25-18, 25-14, 25-16) win over the Briercrest Christian Academy Cougars and Vikings 3-0 (25-22, 25-12, 25-18) over the Cornerstone Christian School Falcons – to mark the first time in recent history that both squads reached the title games in the same year.

For Vikings, it was little surprise – they’d posted a 10-0 record in league play this season and it seemed like such a result was almost a foregone conclusion.

But it is often the case with high school sports, Vanier found themselves in a dogfight early, trailing the whole first set until a late rally led to the three-point win.

“It was good, we really fought back there after

the first set and kept an even keel and played really well the rest of the way through,” said Vanier veteran Cooper Cole. “We didn’t let ourselves get rattled or anything and were able to bring it back; it comes from lots of experience.”

That kind of an early battle was no surprise to Vikings coach Levi Broda, who had seen his team come through plenty of close contests during the season.

“You can prepare the boys all you want, but in a playoff atmosphere, there’s always those nerves and it took us awhile to get focused,” he said. “Credit to Cornerstone, they played a good match today and adjusted well to what we like to do. So, we made some adjustments and got a bit of confidence and went from there.”

The Vikings faced the Central Cyclones – who took a 3-1 win over defending champion Avonlea in their semifinal – in the city final on Nov. 20, with scores unavailable as of press time.

The Spirits, meanwhile, wasted little time in their victory over the Cougars, a semifinal win that has been a long time coming for a

“It’s been a long journey, but we’ve all worked hard and we’re all looking forward to being in the city final in our last year,” said Vanier Grade 12 Madeline Sills.

“I think we worked together really well; we tried to stay up as much as we could and we just played as a team tonight as we strove for our goal to make it to city finals. You could see on everyone’s faces that that was what we

all wanted to do.”

Longtime Spirits coach Leanne Meili was quick to point out that for as much success as they’ve had this year, there’s still one powerhouse in the way of their ultimate goal – the Peacock Toilers, who finished in first place in the regular season and rolled to a 3-0 win over Cornerstone in their semifinal.

“We’re not done,” she said. “It’s a short turnaround here and we’ll get back at it and get ready and prepared for (the final). It think there are somethings we need to clean up; we need to communicate more and get into that mindset of setting the pace and playing our game like we’ve done in the past and we’ll be ready to go.”

Given how close things were at time in the two regular season matches between the teams, more of the same was expected.

“It’ll be a battle, a great game. It gets pretty intense with both teams but we’re going to go to the basics of passing well and serving well and let everything else happen,” Meili said.

The girls final took place at Peacock on Tuesday, with scores unavailable as of press time.

Moose Jaw players selected for Grey Cup event

Central’s Vincent, Holmes to attend CFL title game as part of TITAN program

EXP

Moose Jaw Express

C.J. Vincent and Crozier Holmes are about to take the gridiron at a far higher level and profile than they’ve ever seen before.

The Central Cyclones seniors were among 70 players from across the country chosen to take part in the Nissan TITAN project, an event designed to honour athletes who excel both on the field and in their classrooms and community. The selection comes with an especially impressive honour – the duo will attend the 106th Grey Cup in Edmonton and play an exhibition game the day before the CFL championship game.

Nominated by their respective coaches, family and friends, the players were chosen for displaying values the TITAN program was seeking – toughness, innovation, tenacity ambition and notability.

A perennial honour roll student at Central and captain with the football team, Vincent was instrumental in organizing and running summer drills and practices for his teammates and potential Grade 9 players. He also is heavily involved in the Moose Jaw Flag Football League, having coaching 12-13-year-olds, as well as working as a referee the past five years.

Holmes has worked as a captain with the Cyclones since his sophomore season and has been an impact player with the team throughout his career. Carrying a high-90s average in school and a candidate for school valedictorian, Holmes is also a standout basketball and track athlete and

balances his busy athletic schedule with a part-time job.

His dedication is paramount – he’s often the first person to arrive at practice and last to leave.

Players were chosen by a celebrity judging panel that included CFL commissioner Randy Ambrosie, Roughriders commentator Luc Mullinder and CFL Hall of Famer Geroy Simon.

Holmes will arrive in Edmonton on Thursday and take part in a host of events prior to the TITAN game, after which they’ll be special VIP guests at the Grey Cup on Sunday.

The event is part of the Nissan Kickoff Project, which has spread $500,000 across Canada to support youth football programs.

Red-hot Warriors rack up perfect week Tribe win three straight, including pair on road Randy Palmer Moose Jaw Warriors

Anyone watching Ryan Peckford play for the Moose Jaw Warriors through the first two months of the season has been witness to a model of frustration as his hard work was less than rewarding, until Sunday night. .

The 19-year-old forward was rewarded his effort in style, with Peckford scoring four times and adding an assist in the Warriors 9-1 win in Cranbrook, B.C. over the Kootenay Ice. The showing was part of a solid week in general for the Warriors, who opened with a 7-0 win over the visiting Tri-City Americans on Nov. 13 before hitting the road Nov. 17 and downing the Lethbridge Hurricanes 3-2.

The three victories saw the Warriors im-

prove to 10-5-3-1 on the season, good enough for seventh in the Eastern Conference, a point back of Medicine Hat. Peckford wasted little time against Kootenay – he finished off his hat trick 5:05 into the second period and had four goals midway through the frame.

Tyler Smithies also had a breakthrough performance with his first two goals of the season, Brayden Tracey and Yegor Buyalski had a goal and assist each and Tate Popple their other marker. Adam Evanoff made 19 saves in goal for the win.

One night earlier, Tristan Langan scored a pair of goals, including the game-winner 10:54 into the third, as the Warriors posted an impressive victory in Lethbridge.

Tracey had their other goal, Josh Brook

and Jett Woo had two assists each. Brodan Salmond made 22 saves in goal.

Langan was at it earlier in the week as well, scoring once and picking up three assists as the Tribe put together one of their top home-ice performances in recent memory with their shutout win over Tri-City.

Brook picked up a goal and two assists while going plus-five; Woo, Tracey, Buylaski, Popple and Daemon Hunt all added single markers. Salmond made 32 saves to pick up the Warriors’ first clean sheet of the season.

The Warriors are back in action Nov. 23 when they host Edmonton and Nov. 24 against Lethbridge, with Saturday’s game against the Hurricanes at 2:30 p.m. at Mosaic Place.

Moose Jaw Warriors forward Ryan Peckford battles interference and a bouncing puck in front of the net during a recent game.

Three wins forRandy Elite 15 Cougars on B.C. trip Palmer - Moose Jaw Express Four road games in three days schedule led to an invitation for more success for the Prairie Hockey Academy Elite 15 Cougars.

The Cougars improved to 11-6-0 in the season after a clean four-game sweep in Canadian Sport School Hockey League action in Vancouver over the weekend, as they defeated Delta Hockey Academy 3-2 on Nov. 16, Pacific Coast Academy 2-1 in OT and Pursuit of Excellence 7-1 on Nov. 17 before closing out the trip with a 6-5 shootout victory for their sixth-straight win.

Evan Callaghan had a goal and an assist to kick off PHA’s weekend, with Caelan Fitzpatrick and Connor McGrath adding single markers. Chase Coward had 29 saves for the win.

Fitzpatrick came through in crunch time the next morning, as he scored 1:09 into overtime to give the Cougars their win against Pacific Coast. Kirk Mullen scored their other goal early in the second to tie the game. Nathan Airey had 32 stops for PHA. The Cougars finally broke free offensively in their second game of the day Saturday, building a 3-0 lead in the first and cruising to the commanding win over POE. McGrath had a goal and two assists while Ethan Peters, Chris Otterson, Owen Neubeker and Atley Calvert all had a goal and a helper each. Fitzpatrick and Easton Edi-

ger added single markers for PHA; Coward turned aside 19 shots.

PHA closed out the weekend with some late-game dramatics, as St. George’s scored three times in the third to take a 5-4 lead with 2:50 remaining in the game, only to see Calvert score with 48 seconds left to send things into overtime. Callaghan would then score on the 17th attempt in the shootout to give the Cougars the win.

Fitzpatrick, Callaghan, Austin Reschny, Noah Barlage also scored in regulation; Airey had 18 in-game stops and seven straight saves in the shootout.

The Cougars are back in action Nov. 24-25 when they host Rink Hockey Academy in a pair of games at Barkman Arena.

Clippers honour Haugan with jersey retirement

Fallen Humboldt Broncos head coach remembered for time at Briercrest and beyond Randy Palmer

Former Briercrest Clippers defenceman Mark Lockert was about to play a rec league hockey game in Calgary when the first news of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash started to filter out.

Like many, he thought it would be a minor incident and gave it little immediate though.

After the game, a check of his phone revealed the worst.

Not only had the accident been horrific, but Broncos head coach Darcy Haugan had been among the first confirmed deceased.

As a former teammate with Haugan on the then-Briercrest Bible College Clippers hockey team, the news hit Lockert like it did so many others that fateful night.

“I couldn’t believe it, it didn’t seem like it could happen to someone like him,” Lockert said.

Lockert played with Haugan for a single season – the 1998-99 Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference campaign – but that was more than enough for him to make a point at Barkman Arena on Friday, Nov. 16 when the Clippers officially retired Haugan’s number-22 jersey as part of the team’s annual alumni weekend.

Clippers goaltender Dan Deckoning (left) and coach Jamie Ramer (right) present Darcy Haugan’s Clippers jersey to Christina Haugan and children Carson and Jackson.

“I knew Darcy his first year here, and for a lot of people their first year at Briercrest is a transition, but he seemed to fit right in.” said Lockert, a second-year defenceman at the time. “His first year, he wasn’t a leader with a letter on his shirt, but he

was a leader with the way he played and the things he said when it was time to say something. That’s what we noticed right from the start at the beginning of the year; when there were some trips when things weren’t going as planned... it frustrated Darcy because he wanted things to run smoothly when they didn’t run as they should.

“That was a sign for me right away that he was going to be leader.”

Haugan picked up 27 goals and 46 points in that first season; Lockert had 14 assists and 18 points.

“I played defence on the power play and got a lot of points feeding Darcy one-time passes,” he said with a laugh.

Lockert was among dozens of former players who took part in the event, which featured a centre-ice ceremony and a jersey presentation to Haugan’s wife Christina and his children Carson and Jackson.

It was the latest in a series of honours for Haugan that have gone beyond his skill as a coach – his ability to lead and inspire others beyond hockey saw him receive the Meritorious Service award from Hockey Alberta in 2015 And, more recently, the National Hockey League’s Willie O’Ree Community Hero Award, which Christina and the surviving members of the Broncos accepted during the NHL awards broadcast this summer.

But coming back to Caronport one more time meant that much more to Christina

and her family.

“I met Darcy here; this is where we dated and fell in love and Briercrest has always meant more to us than just the schooling we received,” Christina said after the ceremony that saw Darcy’s former teammate and Clippers head coach Jamie Ramer present the jersey to the family.

“It means a lot that we’re not just honouring the player, but the kind of person he was. He always had time for people; he never rushed you and he cared a lot more about the people and the type of men these players would become outside of their hockey ability. He coached at a fairly high level, but he would take a character kid over talent any day. He spent a lot of time with the players, and he always had time for them and their lives... he was a very unique and special person.”

The ceremony was the latest in a continuous and nearly overwhelming wave of support the Haugans have received since the tragedy.

“We’re incredibly thankful and grateful... events like this that are specific to Darcy and the man we knew, as opposed to the Broncos as a whole, are especially meaningful to us, especially when you get a chance to return to your roots and just think about Darcy,” Christina said. “Jamie and the Briercrest community really wanted the focus to be on who Darcy was even beyond being the coach of the Broncos, and that’s really special to us.”

The jersey retirement also honours a legacy that won’t soon be forgotten and has spanned the country. A major part of that has become the ‘core covenant’ that was displayed on the wall outside the Broncos dressing room and has since spread exponentially, even to the point that hockey royalty has called Christina about it.

“Bobby Orr phoned me not long ago and asked me if he could put Darcy’s core covenant in his home arena because he thinks it should be in every arena across the country,” Christina said. “It’s pretty special to have Bobby Orr call you and ask permission like that, and he sent me a picture the other day of it since they just had it installed last week.

“So, for us, this is crushing, but to see the good and the reach he had, it didn’t matter if anyone was watching, he never expected any credit for what he did and for him to be recognized like this means a lot to me because I know he deserved it.

Darcy Haugan’s Core Covenant • FAMILY first.

• Treat my TEAMMATES and COWORKERS with RESPECT. • Be THANKFUL for the opportunity to wear the Bronco jersey.

• PLAY each game and practice with PASSION and DETERMINATION. • Conduct ourselves with HONESTY and INTEGRITY. • Treat all volunteers, billets, sponsors and fans with RESPECT and GRATITUDE. • Understand that we are building FOUNDATIONS for future generations with our WORDS and ACTIONS. • Always have HOPE and BELIEVE that everything is possible.

New Vanier businesses are sustainable and environmentally responsible Matthew Gourlie

Vanier’s Entrepreneurship 30 students are getting some first-hand experience running a business.

Not only first-hand, but also hands-on, as two of the three new businesses are designing, sourcing materials, creating, marketing and selling their products. The 18th, 19th and 20th businesses created by the class were officially launched at the school on Thursday, Nov. 8.

“I love the class because it is so much hands-on learning,” said Vanier’s Christa Lapointe who teaches the young entrepreneur class. “It’s not teacher-directed, it’s student-directed. I facilitate a lot at this stage of the game, but they’re the ones who really need to make the phone calls, make the connections and plan out their production lines.”

The first couple of months of the class is curriculum-based and provides the students with a solid foundation of business knowledge. Then they hit the ground running, coming up with possible ideas and doing market research. They create their company, develop a business plan and then elect positions.

“Every year I’ve taught this, I’ve actually had students come back to re-take the class and not because they failed it. They want to keep re-applying what they have learned,” Lapointe said. “It’s always so much fun to see the growth and the learning.”

The program pushes students out of their comfort zone, whether it is public speaking, being creative, marketing and sales, or even how they present themselves when dealing with customers and other businesses.

“Even learning how to work with other people with different personalities and different approaches to doing things,” Lapointe said. “In the workplace, or even in your kid’s activities or on boards, you’re working with people with all different backgrounds and ideas. The idea of learning to work together towards that common goal and learning to collaborate and communicate and share ideas and share a vision is a huge growth opportunity for these kids.”

The class has been creating businesses since 2009 and Vanier students have earned Junior Achievement business awards for their work.

The sixth annual Christmas Craft and Trade Show will be hosted by Vanier with students from Entrepreneurship 30 organizing the event. The event will take place on Saturday, Nov. 24 from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

There are still a few vendor spots available as of this writing and all of the previous editions have sold out.

They have a presence on Instagram and Facebook and order forms are being sent out. They are having to have more products available in time for the Christmas Craft and Trade Show.

“With pallet art, the possibilities are endless,” Foster said. “We can make literally anything. We definitely take requests and we like to hear from our customers, so we know what they’re looking for.”

Be The Change is selling handmade stamped penny jewelry and pendants.

“We were researching business ideas and we came across some penny-based jewelry on Pinterest and we decided to make it our own and see how we could make it different,” said Bailey Moser, from Be The Change.

Calf price insurance paid out $405,000

Enrolment in the Western Livestock Price Insurance Program (WLPIP) last year was the EXPRESS highest since introduced in March 2014, with a total of 2,959 producers signed up by March 31 this year.

Twenty-two per cent of the calf herd — about 176,000 head — were insured.

About 2.5 per cent of the province’s feeder cattle, almost 20,000 head, were insured.

Among feeder cattle, the program insured 4,463 head or about 4.5 per cent of the feeder herd.

In the fall of 2017, about $405,00 was paid to cattle producers whose price was insured.

The program insures price year-round for feeder cattle, finished cattle, or hogs. Coverage can range from 95 per cent to 75 per cent of the estimated price.

Coverage is available for cattle intended for sale between 12 and 36 weeks from the day of policy purchase.

A new change to the plan allows payment of insurance premiums at the expiration date of the policy.

Until now, payment whether by cheque, in person, or online had to be paid up-front.

Homeless man to reunite with family after finding Bambi art in Edmonton garbage EDMONTON _ A homeless man who found an authentic animation cel from the classic Disney movie ``Bambi’’ in a tattered, dirty frame will use his earnings to reunite with his family in Ontario.

Adam Gillian, who is 38, brought the item into Curiosity Inc., an antique shop in Edmonton, and the owner bought it for $20.

The shop’s owner, Alexander Archbold, later found a certificate on the back of the picture that said it was an

authentic 1937 animation cel from ``Bambi.’’

When someone bought it off eBay for $3,700, Archbold made it his mission to track down Gillian and give him his share of the profits.

He also started a GoFundMe to help Gillian get back to his family in Ontario _ the campaign had raised over $13,000 by Tuesday afternoon.

Adam’s mother, Patti Gillian, told CTV Edmonton that she hadn’t heard from her son in two years.

``I didn’t know if he was dead or alive,’’ she said. ``And I didn’t know how to get in touch with anybody to find him.’’

She called Archbold her son’s angel. (CTV Edmonton, The Canadian Press) © 2018 The Canadian Press

NASA boss in Ottawa, fuels speculation about new Canadian space station role OTTAWA _ The head of the U.S. space agency says Canada’s knack for artificial intelligence will be useful for exploring the moon, if we want in.

Jim Bridenstine, the administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, says Canada has developed crucial artificial intelligence-based robotics technology that could help operate the

next-generation outpost the United States is planning to send into lunar orbit.

He started a two-day trip to Ottawa today by taking part in a demonstration at Carleton University by Mission Control, a Canadian company working on robotic technology that can be used to test soil samples.

Bridenstine says he wants Canada’s de-

cades-long space partnership with the U.S. to continue as it embarks on the creation of its new ``Lunar Gateway.’’

Bridenstine is to give a keynote address on Wednesday at the Aerospace Industries Association of Canada, where speculation is running high that Canada’s participation in the Lunar Gateway _ NASA’s next-generation space project _

is expected to be announced.

In September, the Canadian Space Agency issued tenders for projects designed to position Canada to contribute to future space missions involving human and robotic exploration. © 2018 The Canadian Press

Pilots say Boeing didn’t disclose jet’s new control feature

By David Koenig THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Boeing didn’t tell airline pilots about features of a new flight-control system in its 737 MAX that reportedly is a focus of the investigation into last month’s deadly crash in Indonesia, according to pilots who fly the jet in the U.S. Pilots say they were not trained in new features of an anti-stall system in the aircraft that differ from previous models of the popular 737.

The automated system is designed to help pilots avoid raising the plane’s nose too high, which can cause the plane to stall. It automatically pushes the nose of the plane down.

But if that nose-down command is triggered by faulty sensor readings _ as suspected in the Lion Air crash _ pilots can struggle to control the plane, which can go into

a dive and perhaps crash, according to a Boeing safety bulletin and safety regulators.

The bulletin included new details on how to stop a runaway series of events from leading to a crash, pilots say. ``It is something we did not have before in any of our training. It wasn’t in our books. American didn’t have it,’’ said Dennis Tajer, a 737 pilot and spokesman for the pilots union at American Airlines. ``Now I have to wonder what else is there?’’

The president of the pilots union at Southwest Airlines, Jon Weaks, told The Wall Street Journal, ``We’re pissed that Boeing didn’t tell the companies, and the pilots didn’t get notice.’’

The MAX is the newest version of the twin-engine Boeing 737. More than 200 have been delivered to airlines

The Federal Aviation Administration issued an emergency directive last week to airlines, telling them to update cockpit manuals to include instructions for how pilots can adjust flight controls under certain conditions.

Pink diamond sells for more than $50M, setting world record GENEVA _ Christie’s sold the ``Pink Legacy’’ diamond at auction Tuesday for more than $50 million including fees, saying it’s a new world record price per carat for a pink diamond.

Christie’s said that renowned jeweler Harry Winston was the buyer. The auction house had expected to fetch $30 million to $50 million for the nearly 19-carat, rectangular-cut stone, the largest fancy vivid pink diamond that it has ever put under the hammer.

It was the standout offering at Christie’s fall jewelry auction in Geneva. The standing-room only ballroom broke into applause after the auctioneer struck down a hammer price of $44.5 million. That excludes the standard ``buyer’s premium’’ and other fees.

The stone once belonged to the Oppenheimer diamond family, and Christie’s says it’s among the most chemically pure gems.

Rahul Kadakia, Christie’s head of international jewelry, said that auction house has only sold four diamonds weighing more than 10 carats of the same colour in its 251 years of history.

Christie’s sale kicks off two days of jewelry auctions in Geneva. On Wednesday, Sotheby’s will auction jewelry once owned by French Queen Marie Antoinette that hadn’t been seen in public for 200 years. © 2018 The Canadian Press

HUMAN INTEREST

Disabled boy has ‘forgiven’ bullies who walked on him in stream, mother says GLACE BAY, N.S. _ The mother of a Cape Breton teen with cerebral palsy says her son has forgiven a group of students who bullied him last week _ telling him to lie in a shallow stream as other students walked over him.

But she said he is still afraid to return to his high school because he doesn’t feel safe.

In an interview Tuesday, Terri McEachern said her son, 14-year-old Brett Corbett, received an apology over the weekend from two of the students involved.

School administrators said Tuesday they wanted to assure parents and the community that they would ``work

with students, staff and parents to address this behaviour.’’

The stream, known as Burr-Bank, is near Glace Bay High School where Corbett is a Grade 9 student.

The incident was recorded and ended up posted on Facebook, causing widespread concern and condemnation. ``To see the video of your kid laying there and kids mocking, ridiculing, it tore my heart out,’’ said McEachern.

McEachern said the family saw the video, but it didn’t become public until a girl posted it on social media to counter those who said the incident didn’t happen.

She said a boy and a girl who were

involved came to her home this past weekend to apologize in person. ``He’s accepting of the apologies, he’s forgiving of them,’’ she said. ``He was OK with then coming here and apologizing so I’m OK with that.’’

An emotional McEachern said while it’s been hard to deal with a situation she still can’t believe happened, she has to try to forgive as well. ``I don’t hold hate and resentment in my heart. It hurts, it was wrong, it’s unacceptable, but hate only grows, it’s a dark emotion.’’

On Tuesday, the Cape Breton-Victoria Regional Centre for Education released a statement promising action.

However, McEachern said school officials hadn’t yet contacted her, and she’ll be looking for reassurance that her son will be safe in school. ``An apology and a one-day suspension doesn’t change tomorrow how Brett feels about what happened,’’ she said.

McEachern said she will keep her son at home until Monday to see what develops. © 2018 The Canadian Press

On the Front Porch

Temple Hotels continues with money losing streak

By Ron Walter - For Moose Jaw Express

by Wanda Smith

Why Am I Here?

There’s a story of a young man named Winston, who struggled to rescue an old gentleman from drowning in the ocean. As both men fell to the beach, exhausted from the struggle to get Mr. Cambridge to safety, the old gentleman angrily asked the young man, “Why didn’t you just let me die?” Startled, Winston was shocked that this man he’d known for twenty years hadn’t appreciated his heroic efforts to save him. Mr. Cambridge was a hard-working, successful business man who had achieved the status of being the wealthiest man in the city and had been his role model for many years yet he was wishing the young man would’ve let him drown?

The old man lamented, suggesting all of his work was for nothing. He still felt empty, depressed and frustrated.

His life had no meaning. As the businessman regained composure, he took the young man’s hands in his own and said, “Son, do not strive to be like me. Find out who you are and be yourself.” (Taken from “The Pursuit of Purpose” by Myles Munroe).

“Why am I here? What makes me feel fulfilled? I feel lost. I am tired of my dead end job. I get up, go to work, come home, and go to bed just to get back up to do the same thing over again. My life feels like it’s going nowhere.” Have any of these thoughts gone through your mind? Have you ever wondered why you were born?

You may have noticed “On the Front Porch” that I have mentioned that each of us have an assignment on this earth. Did you know “...it doesn’t matter where you work, how much money you make, or what you can buy?

If you are not trained and released to do what you were created to do, you will never find fulfillment in life.”

Chuck Pierce, apostolic leader and mobilizer of worldwide prayer, suggests that “today many of us are unsettled because we are not positioned correctly. However, once we are aligned, we can find ourselves arrayed for victory.”

There is a place in our soul that is “purpose-shaped.” It cannot be filled with anything else than what we’ve been created to be and do. Life will never feel fulfilled until we can discover what it is we were made to be and do.

This is a journey, for sure. However, it isn’t hidden from us. It is hidden for us. It is hidden for us to seek out... through a relationship with Jesus. He has the map. He has the plan. Our job is to pursue Jesus and He will take us on a journey of discovery that will answer our questions and give us reason to live.

Myles Munroe suggests that “the greatest tragedy in life is not death, but life without a reason. It is dangerous to be alive and not know why you were given life.” Many are busy making a living but have no life. Proverbs 29:18 says, “Where there is no revelation (vision), the people cast off restraint...” Munroe points out that “... where there is no purpose, there is no self-control, no moral conviction and no ethical boundaries. ...no amount of accomplishments can replace the power and the motivation of finding your own special niche and working toward your dreams.” The primary goal of every person must be to fulfill their purpose. Stay tuned next week for more on this life-changing teaching. In the meantime, begin to ask God to reveal what your purpose is and why you were created. Blessings, dear reader.

Housing market trends appear to favour buyers

By Ron Walter - For Moose Jaw Express

The housing market in Moose Jaw seems to have entered a buyers’ phase with lower sales volume and lower prices.

Sales of residential real estate on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) declined in October to 38 from 41 the previous October.

Year-to-date sales volume of $89,278,000 is down 5.3 per cent from a year ago.

A press release from the Regina Association of Realtors indicates the average benchmark price has declined 6.2 per cent over the last five years from $222,800 to a current $209,000.

The average price is still 23.7 per cent higher than 10 years ago.

Average benchmark price of $209,000 for single family homes has dropped by $13,800 over five years while average price of a two-storey home of $212,500 has fallen a mere $2,000 over five years.

TAYLOR Lillian Miranda Taylor, aged 42 years of Moose Jaw, SK was taken to a place of peace and freedom from pain on Sunday, November 4th, 2018. Pneumonia, her final illness, has torn Lili from her beloved husband, Rodney McEwen; and from her grieving family: father, Fred Taylor; mother, Robin Berthelet; and brothers, Perry Berthelet (Stephanie) and Eric Taylor. Lili cherished her fun times with her nephew, Quinn and niece, Elspeth and will be sadly missed. Lili was born in Moose Jaw in May 1976 and lived with her dear Rod, their dogs Jones and Rufus, and cat Spider. Lili took great joy in all animals, and could make friends anywhere with her open heart and hilarious viewpoints.

Rodney and family held a Memorial Service on Saturday, November 17th, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. in St Aidan Anglican Church, 124 1st Ave NE, Moose Jaw, SK with Reverend Deacon Arleen Champion officiating. Flowers gratefully declined. An expression of sympathy donations to the Free to Be Me Animal Sanctuary, Box 1685, Moose Jaw, SK S6H 7K7 would warm Lili’s heart. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane.

It is with a heavy heart that the family of Fon Kue Chow announce his passing at the age of 84 years on November 9th, 2018.

Fon was born on October 25th, 1934 in Chung Hing Lee, Kwangtung, China and immigrated to Canada in 1951. He arrived in Vancouver, BC joining his father, Frank Chow and he eventually settled in Moose Jaw and began working at the Modern Cafe. He was a respected member of the community having served over 25 years in the healthcare industry as an Orderly with the Moose Jaw Union Hospital and as a Home Care Aide with Thunder Creek Home Care. In the early 1970’s Fon went on to become one of Moose Jaw’s most recognized athletes as he pursued bodybuilding at Pyle’s Gym and competed on a national level with the Mr. Canada competition on more than one occasion.

Beyond bodybuilding, he was a member of Moose Jaw’s Wrestling and Bar Bell Club. In his athleticism, he went on to compete holding many provincial champion titles such as Powerlifting Champion, Weightlifting Champion, and Body Building Champion through most of that decade. Fon was a man of great admiration and will be remembered by many as a man of grace, inspiration, patience, fortitude, compassion and so much more. He was a man of such dignity, integrity and the will to help those who were in need without question. He was a quiet man with immense dedication to hard work, values, perseverance, and humility. His life was full with loving family whom he was surrounded by. He is survived by his sister, Elan (Paul) and his children: Kurtis, La Loni (David), April, Kathy (Jason), Christine (Alex), Kue Lynn (Shane), Mei-Ling (Kurt); 18 grandchildren: Joshua, Michael, Sage, Geordie, Alix, Jemma, Sally, Brooks, Darence, Marissa, Klaudia, Jaxon, Lakin, Bradley, Emily, Kyril, Katelynn and Samuel and 3 great grandchildren: Adley, Georgia and Abel. To celebrate Fon’s life, a Come & Go Memorial Tea was held on Thursday, November 15th, 2018 from 1:00-3:00 p.m. in the Harvey Room at Moose Jaw Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Moose Jaw Humane Society, Box 1658 Station Main. Moose Jaw, SK. S6H 7K7.

Deb Lauren lit up the stage Matthew Gourlie

Deborah Lauren may have been small in stature, but her gorgeous voice and big personality could light up a room and command a stage.

Born Deborah Mokelky in Moose Jaw, Lauren died in her home in Edmonton on October 4. She was 62 years old.

A singer, television host and entertainer, Lauren had a successful and varied career.

“She was definitely one of the most talented human beings I ever knew,” said acclaimed Saskatchewan country artist Brian Sklar, who felt that Lauren’s ability to connect with an audience -- both in person and on television -- was rare.

“She always knew where the camera was. She was an extraordinary talent.

There’s no question about that.”

Lauren’s talent was evident early as a student at Central Collegiate. Her high school classmate Steve Glassman didn’t know her well at the time, but when he started a band, he knew she was the obvious choice to front it.

“In Grade 9, I organized a band and we performed for the whole school and Deborah was the singer. She was a really good singer in high school and I was a mediocre guitar player,” said Glassman.

“At our graduation, Deborah sang for all of the parents and she was really good.

We all knew she was going to be really good.”

After a time in Toronto singing with rock bands, she returned to Saskatchewan. Glassman felt she would be the perfect host for a new country and roots television show he was producing for the CBC. It was intended to be a regional show, but it ended up airing nationwide.

“We had done a short series for Saskatchewan and we came to the notice of the national CBC, through a competition of all of the CBCs across Canada.

We were probably the least likely to win, but we won this competition,” Glassman said. “Our pilot, which had K. D. Lang in it, won the day.

“My higher-ups in Toronto... loved her.

The interesting thing that I’ve learned about a show like this is, had I not found someone like Deborah to host the show, we might not have been awarded the series.”

The show, Country West, beat the odds.

Lauren hosted and also sang, sharing the stage with their impressive house band and a number of noted Canadian artists.

“We brought in the best talent from across the country,” Glassman said. “We knew that we were all shooting above our weight. It was a very successful show. Successful in the way that everybody loved it and we had great ratings.

We lasted two years. I think we did 26 episodes.”

After the show, went off the air. Lauren was a regular guest on Sklar’s show, No. 1 West, which was syndicated on CTV and produced in Prince Albert for six years in the early 1990s. The show featured local talent and top acts from the Grand Ole Opry.

“She was at the top of her game when she was doing the Country West series,” Sklar said. “Deb was not only a singer and a great emcee, but also funny as hell.

“I told her ‘What sets you apart from everyone else is your comedic timing and your propensity for being able to get on stage and have people just rolling in the aisles one minute and crying the next minute. That’s your strength.’”

While being on national television regularly for years was good for her career, Glassman couldn’t help but wonder ‘what if’?’

“I think in a different city or even in a different country -- if she had been in New York or L.A. -- who knows where her career might have gone,” he said.

Lauren was married twice and had a son, Braydon Krahn, who lives in Estevan.

Her career had plenty of high points.

She won the first Female Vocalist of the year and the Saskatchewan Country Music Awards in 1990. Lauren performed at the Big Valley Jamboree in Camrose, Alta. opening for Ricky Skaggs. She also took part in the original Saskatchewan Country Road Show in 1999 as part of the formation of the Saskatchewan Country Music Association.

She took part in Jerry Lewis’ Muscular Dystrophy Association Labor Day telethon multiple times, but a highlight was taking part in Las Vegas where legends like Tony Bennett also starred. Lauren also co-hosted Telemiracle and was part

of that broadcast on numerous occasions.

She performed as Klondike Kate as part of the Spirit of Edmonton during Grey Cup week for a number of years and was also Pemmican Pearl at Regina’s Buffalo Days.

“She was well-loved by those who saw her perform. She had a way of connecting with everybody,” said Lauren’s longtime friend Bill Hildreth. “When she performed, she gave it her all. She could be in the tiniest pub in rural Alberta and it would be full of rednecks and truckers and farmers and she would have them right in the palm of her hand.

“She would take a crowd of 2,000 at Grey Cup and take them by storm. Grey Cup 2001 in Vancouver she did a conga line out of the hotel, down the street and around the block with the band members coming with her and we had 2,000 people on the street in Vancouver. She was just a real livewire.”

Hildreth said that Lauren left him shaking his head. He recalled a time she was out running errands and ended up having a coffee for three hours with a homeless man she had just met.

“That was her. She just connected with anybody, anywhere, any time,” Hildreth said.

That was equally true when she toured with Sklar and his band to the Swiss National Exhibition in 2000.

“She went over like gangbusters,” Sklar recalled. “One of my favourite memories of her, the night we arrived, they had a big reception for us in Bern in the town square. They had us play a few tunes and Deborah grabbed the mayor of Bern and had him out on the dance floor and that made the local television news. The next night we were on network television singing a duet that I had written for us. It was a pretty memorable occasion.”

While she won over fans at every show with her talent, her personality and her sense of humour, Hildreth said it was her big heart that made her an even better person. They met more than 20 years ago and when he needed a friend, she was there for him.

“I was going through a really bad time.

My marriage had broken up and Deb gave me somewhere to stay,” Hildreth said. “I took care of Braydon and things when she was on the road, did his school homework and stuff with him.”

In May 2011, Lauren had major surgery for a brain aneurysm that doctors managed to catch just in time. However, it left her prone to seizures and using a walker. Her days as a performer were also effectively over.

They never lost touch, but Hildreth was working in the Arctic when Lauren’s apartment was sold out from under her.

Needing a place to stay where she could keep her dog, Hildreth managed to find her a place. When his contract was up, he moved back to Edmonton and lived directly above her and took care of the rent for her place repaying her kindness from decades before.

“I saw her every day,” Hildreth said.

“Not being able to perform depressed her, but when she was Deb, she was Deb. On her good days she was just fabulous.

One her bad days, she could be a bit of a trial.”

Two days before her death, Hildreth had her over for dinner.

“I did a pot roast for supper and we watched old Dean Martin roasts. We were howling with laughter and she went to the elevator and the last thing she said to me was ‘I love you, God bless.’ and got into the elevator,” Hildreth said.

The next afternoon Hildreth found her slightly disorientated -- not an unusual occurrence after one of her seizures -and put her in bed. When he checked in on her again the next morning she had passed away.

“It was very sudden. It was a hell of a shock,” he said.

She was cremated and Hildreth said her siblings -- Candie Schmidt who is also a performer who lives in Penticton, B.C. and Rathe and Vance Mokelky -- will decide where to keep her remains.

There was no funeral at Lauren’s request.

Mosaic Place was filled with thousands of supporters and dozens of dignitaries for the 100th annual Remembrance Day Service held on Sunday, Nov. 11, the kind of turnout that has long been a hallmark of the community.

Onlookers took part in remembering the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who fought and gave the ultimate sacrifice through the many armed conflicts and support missions Canada has been a part of through the last century.

The event saw a full compliment of military turnout, including the Saskatchewan Dragoons, as well as the Navy, Army and Sea Cadet corps. The Dragoons also provided the traditional honour guard around the special cenotaph at centre ice in Mosaic Place, led by SMWO Al Pociuk.

Legion Branch 59 padre Rev. Doug Shephard conducted the service, with Rev. Dr. Dean Pinter of St. Aiden’s Church providing the homily and 15 Wing Padre Capt.

Eric Davis reading the official scripture.

Last Post and Reveille were performed by Capt. Rick Elmer; Michelle Gallagher was the bag piper for the ceremony.

Belinda and Halsey Naismith had the honour of laying the first wreath, the Memorial Cross on behalf of widows and children of veterans.

A host of dignitaries were on hand for the wreath laying ceremony, including MP Tom Lukiwski on behalf of the Government of Canada; MLAs Warren Michelson and Greg Lawrence for the Government of Saskatchewan; Mayor Fraser Tolmie for the City of Moose Jaw and 15 Wing Commander Col. Denis O’Reilly and Chief Warrant Officer John Hall.

The service concluded with a parade of veterans, military organizations and supporting organizations to the Royal Canadian Legion.

The Moose Jaw Band City Band performs during the Remembrance Day ceremonies.

The Remembrance Day colour party leads the parade to the Legion following the day’s ceremonies.

The cenotaph in Mosaic Place was covered with wreathes at the end of the ceremony.

As a result, it’s the ‘more the merrier’ as they hope to see new youngsters taking to the pool.

To that end, they’ll be holding a Try Synchro for Free evening on Nov. 16, looking to see as many potential new Otters as possible.

Members of the Moose Jaw Kinsmen Aqua “We’ll just try and incorporate you into a recent practice. the practice, show off some routines and kind of what we do, play some games and – synchronicity.
