Loca l AUT H O RS: Writers tell us what makes their book worth reading

C.J. ANDERSON

Gina French Is Not A Waste of Roofies I was standing in line at the bank. There were five tellers: four in their 60s and one in her 20s.

The young woman seemed to be moving twice as fast as her co-workers with clenched teeth and a fake smile. Despite the zigzagging line 25 people deep, the elderly folk continued working at their relaxed pace and the girl’s suppressed rage continued to amplify. As I waited I passed the time creating a backstory for her — one where she was actually a horrible person and this was some version of absolute hell she had already earned.

Her fabricated biography stuck with me.

I had just become a father and as excited as my wife and I were, I felt like adulthood was violently dragging me down the stairs. As I started writing what would become Gina French is Not a Waste of Roofies, it was scary, if not alarming, how many of my own insecurities and worries began pouring onto the pages.

Gina French is as middle class as one can get. While working as a correctional officer, she narrowly escapes a sexual assault but when questions are asked people’s true opinions of her are C.J. Anderson revealed, leaving her bitter, confrontational and unable to return to work.

After receiving second-hand information from a co-worker she begins obsessing over the whereabouts of an escaped convict and the financial reward and fame becomes her immediate goal.

It’s not easy writing a character so beaten down, fuelled only by anger and paranoia but I committed — cutting my sleep in half and doubling my caffeine for months until my own health failed me. (Try writing while attached to a heart monitor sometime.)

Thankfully, I realized my dream of legitimate publication when Gothenburg, Sweden’s Kraken Press purchased the book, saving me the financial burden of self publishing.

I’m proud of my Kraken Press contract. I’m proud of Gina French is not a Waste of Roofies.

It’s a slow-moving crime thriller drowned with inner dialogue that leaves readers wondering how everyone involved got so far removed from their original motives. I’m proud of Gina French the character. My only real goal was to write someone so grey area that the readers would fill in the pieces from their own interactions with similar people, leaving me with feedback ranging from “I want to hug Gina French” to “I hate that Gina French.”

I always say Regina chose us. We didn’t choose Regina. — Muna De Ciman

muna de ciman

Fresh start for family in Saskatchewan

By Iryn Tushabe Muna De Ciman stood beneath the towering Honouring Tree — a 13-metre high stainless steel kinetic sculpture in Regina’s Wascana Park. The star-shaped points atop the monument sparkled in the afternoon sun, casting a shimmering reflection on the surface of the still lake waters in the distance.

“It’s called the Honouring Tree because it signifies the contributions made by our ancestors — the black people who came here before us,” she said.

“It signifies hope for the cultural diversity we now enjoy.”

As she sat down, De Ciman talked about life in the North African country of Sierra Leone where she grew up. She remembered how community elders held important discussions under large trees. When it got too hot, as it often did, the village folk cooled off underneath nearby trees, she reminisced.

“The honouring tree is life and it’s food and it gives us rest,” she said, adding the sculpture in Wascana Park was erected in 2011 as a towering reminder of the strength of community. **** De Ciman and her family arrived in Regina 21 years ago as refugees.

They had been living in Liberia for a while when civil war broke out in that country, forcing them to seek refuge in Ghana. It is from there that they applied to immigrate to Canada through the federal government’s refugee resettlement program.

“I always say Regina chose us. We didn’t choose Regina,” De Ciman said.

“Our resettlement worker thought Regina was the best place for us because we had kids.”

It wasn’t love at first sight. African immigrants in Saskatchewan were few and far between at the time and the De Cimans stood out. But she was determined to make a fresh start for her family. So she ventured out to the

Regina Open Door Society (RODS) where she took a course in palliative care. She made friends and built connections through community events.

By the time winter came, transforming the city to look and feel like the inside walls of her newly acquired

deep freezer, De Ciman was already determined to make this place home.

There was no looking back.

“It took time to settle down but after I started networking and making myself available on many boards, I started to feel like I was becoming

a contributing member of the community.”

In giving back to the community, De Ciman felt an intense feeling of belonging. That feeling has only grown stronger with time.

Today she serves on various

boards including as board chair of the Saskatchewan African Canadian Heritage Museum, and director of the Regina Multicultural Council.

That’s all in addition to her full-time job as a youth counsellor at the Paul Dojack Youth Centre.

For De Ciman, how a community rallies around its members in times of hardship is a significant marker of the values of that community.

Recently, after a massive earthquake tore through Nepal, leaving it in unimaginable devastation, the Nepali Society of Southern Saskatchewan held a vigil in support of the victims. On the night of the vigil, De Ciman was one of the first people to arrive at the cenotaph in Victoria Park where it was held. Soon after her arrival, she was helping organizers tape down the Nepali flag around which multitudes of little electronic candles were arranged. She helped flick those candles on, too. And she comforted individuals from the Nepali community, telling them their crisis was her crisis.

“We raised some money but we need more, so much more,” she said.

“And we’ll need to provide that support on an ongoing basis because the people there will live with the disaster for a very long time.” **** Most immigrants to Saskatchewan know De Ciman as ‘aunty Muna.’

The term is carried over from some African communities where a respected member of the community, even one that’s not a blood relative, is called “aunty” or “uncle.” In such circles, it would be impolite to simply refer to someone like De Ciman without the signifier of respect.

De Ciman is the go-to person for many immigrant women still trying to find their footing in Saskatchewan.

Muna is always there. If something happens to us, she’s here ... It would be too hard without her.

— Kawthar Kuku

When she talks about the role De Ciman played in helping her family, Kuku’s face lights up.

“Muna is always there. If something happens to us, she’s here. A lot of things we don’t know how to do, we call her,” she said.

“It would be too hard without her.”

But one would be hard pressed to get De Ciman to admit that she is helping Kuku.

“I don’t like saying I help people because what we do is we empower people to help themselves,” she said.

“And in the process we help ourselves, too.”

Kawthar Kuku is one such woman.

Kuku is originally from Sudan but a civil war in that country displaced her family to a refugee camp in Ghana — the very same one where De Ciman previously lived.

In 2008, she was resettled in Regina. At the time, she knew not a single word in English, making it hard to access services or find a job to support her family of five children and a mother in-law.

“I’d apply for jobs and no one would call me back because I couldn’t speak English,” she explained.

De Ciman came to Kuku’s rescue, she said.

“She came directly to us and she told us Regina is a great place to live and if we work hard we’ll be happy here,” said Kuku, sitting in her small downtown Regina house.

“And we are.”

De Ciman helped Kuku find a job as a cleaner.

After initial English language classes at RODS, Kuku is now finessing her literacy skills at Saskatchewan Polytechnic before enrolling in a continuing care assistant course at the same institution.

**** De Ciman speaks fondly of each and every family she has worked with. Having raised six children of her own, she can’t help but relate when she sees families who are struggling.

That’s how 17-year-old Mugisha Asharuf has ended up living in De Ciman’s south Regina residence even though his mother is only minutes away in the city’s north end.

She’s like a second mom to me. I’m not trying to compare her with my mom, but she just never gives up on anybody.

— Mugisha Asharuf

Muna De Ciman runs along the sidewalk during a celebration of International Women’s Day on the Albert Street Bridge in Regina on March 8. Bridges File Photo by Michael Bell

Asharuf is originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo but grew up in Texas before moving to Regina in 2008.

Initially, he and his mom also lived in the south end. He made friends in the neighbourhood and at the schools he attended.

When his mom decided to move to the north end, Asharuf couldn’t stand the idea of leaving the network of friends he’d made at Dr. Martin LeBoldus High School.

Fortunately for him, one of his closest friends is De Ciman’s

youngest son, Chan.

“So one day Chan hits me up and he’s like, ‘Yo, my mom needs help selling food at some festival’ and I was like, ‘Sure, why not?’ ” “And that’s how it started off.

She treated me the same way she treated Chan and also paid us for the work.”

Asharuf grew closer to the family and when he expressed his concerns about having to change schools, De Ciman said he was welcome to live with her so he didn’t have to switch. Chan’s older

brother, Joe, had just moved out and there was a spare bedroom that Asharuf could occupy.

“She’s like a second mom to me,” Asharuf said.

“I’m not trying to compare her with my mom, but she just never gives up on anybody.”

At the De Ciman residence, Asharuf has learned more than just to do his share of household chores, he said.

The De Ciman kids are as successful in academics as they are in sports.

At 21 years old, Joe is an integral member of the Colorado State Rams basketball team for whom he plays guard position.

He is at the same time following in his father’s footsteps and well on his way to becoming a doctor.

Joe’s younger brother, Chan, is equally smart and athletic. He hasn’t decided which sport to focus on when he graduates from high school, but excels in both football and basketball.

Asharuf looks up to both brothers. They have given him the

sharp sense of what he wants and the steely determination to pursue it.

“They all work so hard and it’s rubbed off on me,” said Asharuf, who isn’t doing too bad himself in Grade 10 and in basketball.

“It makes me look at things differently. I’m so lucky to have known them at this time in my life.”

In response to the positive influence she has been on Asharuf and other kids like him, De Ciman simply said, “It takes a village.”

H e l p f o r REF U G EE S

Saskatoon Open Door Society a bridge in the system

By Iryn Tushabe Saba Andu often relies on her own experiences when helping refugees make a fresh start in Saskatoon.

Even though she came to Canada through family sponsorship, she can empathize with most of the challenges refugee struggle with in the city because she is a war survivor herself.

“I was a refugee in Sudan. I still get flash backs of the war. I smelled it. I felt it,” she says.

Andu has been working at the Saskatoon Open Door Society, in various capacities, for 27 years.

Currently, she is a settlement counsellor. She is also in charge of the One Year Window program, which reunites refugees with loved ones they left behind.

“It’s not easy,” she says, explaining it can take anywhere between 18 to 36 months before families are reunited.

It’s a period fraught with great anxiety and fear for all the terrible things that could happen to loved ones in

war zones and refugee camps.

And there’s always the chance their applications won’t be successful.

Andu says there are issues that every immigrant struggles with — cultural shock, language barriers, difficulty finding work.

But for refugees, there’s an extra layer of hardship.

They deal with anger and confusion, wounds both physical and emotional, the indelible marks of war.

“Many have trauma,” explains Andu.

“Some have lost loved ones, witnessed atrocities.”

Andu’s job, and that of fellow staff at the Saskatoon Open Door Society, is to help refugees reclaim the power war that stole from them.

They need that power to take control of their lives once more, to make important life decisions. Sometimes that process takes as long as three years “In those three years, we are a bridge in the system. We hold their hands and we support them,” Andu says.

How to make your garden drought-proof

By Erl Sve n dse n While it’s too early to say we’re facing a drought in parts of the Prairies, droughts are a regular occurrence in this region and sooner rather than later we’ll be facing long stretches of low precipitation.

So consider drought-proofing your garden by adopting some of the following suggestions: Amend the soil with organic matter (compost or manure), especially if it’s sandy, to help retain water as well as to enrich the soil with essential nutrients. Make sure the organic matter has been composted sufficiently to kill weed seeds and diseases.

Cover bare soil with 10 to 15 cm of organic mulch. Mulch not only reduces surface evaporation, it keeps the soil cool (reducing plant stress) and smothers weed seedlings. Organic mulch breaks down and you will need to topdress your beds every 2 or 3 years. For transplants in the vegetable garden, consider using black (or red for tomatoes) plastic mulch to really reduce water loss and control weeds.

Use drip irrigation (weeping hoses) to irrigate your flower, shrub and vegetable beds (place under mulch layer). Water is applied right where it’s needed with little evaporation.

Water early in the day so when it’s hot and dry, plants can draw up the water they need to stay hydrated and to cool themselves through evapo-transpiration.

Infrequent deep irrigation (applying three cm of water once per week) encourages deep root formation, allowing plants to reach water at depth; conversely shallow-rooted plants rely on surface moisture and are more likely to become stressed as soon as the soil starts to dry and the soil temperature rises.

Keep your weeds under control. Weeds not only detract from the beauty of your garden, they also suck up water, steal nutrients and crowd out your ornamental plants. Also control pests and diseases as these put additional stress on your plants, making them less able to respond to drought.

Choose naturally drought-tolerant plants.

Many of our native prairie plants are drought tolerant and make excellent ornamentals. Look for plants with deep roots, succulent leaves or hairy, silvery leaves. One strategy some plants use to survive drought is avoidance — they

Ask Ellie

‘Girlfriend’ needs to be given an ultimatum Q: My “girlfriend” of four years doesn’t want to be more than bed buddies. Her father and ex-husband were both control freaks, so she values her independence more than a long-term relationship.

We live separately, but sleep together on weekends and travel together.

She has adult children, I don’t.

I’d like to live together —we’d both save money if we shared the expenses.

Also, when she gets older she’ll always have her kids, while I’ll have no one (we’re late-40s, I’m just thinking ahead).

I care a lot for her and am lonely without her. We have sex and occasional companionship, but not much intimacy.

Fuzzy Relationship A: Tell her how you feel about her.

Then give her an ultimatum.

Tell her that her thinking that you’ll eventually try to control her, is insulting and unfair.

She chose a man with the same domineering trait as her father. YOU

are not that man.

If she doesn’t change her mind, move on. Hanging on will just become more frustrating.

PS. Don’t mention the money angle.

That should be a bonus, not the reason.

Q: I was pregnant when I discovered my husband was cheating. We decided to not separate till he’d bonded with our baby so he could be a better father to him.

A business associate was attentive to me but we didn’t start our affair for another year. He was married, in business with his wife.

He claimed he’d planned to leave her anyway, and now would. Twice he set a “date” for our new life together. It never happened.

I lived with this mess for two years, mostly feeling overwhelmed. Then, one day, it became clear that I had to end it. My son is now 10, and that man’s still with his wife, having other affairs.

Single Mom A: Good for you for untangling your-

Ask Ellie

self. But you don’t say whether 10 years later, you’ve found a partner.

Forget that man. He was a self-absorbed user, and likely stayed with his wife to not lose part of his business.

He played with your heart and mind shamefully. But there are many decent guys out there.

Be open to meeting new people (but be selective too).

Q: My wife and I have made the first steps of separating after she cheated, but we’re living in the same house till we agree on finances and child custody, and prepare the house for sale.

She’s dating the man she cheated with, which she thinks is fine, because he’s a “known factor.”

I’ve dated a few women through online sites but am getting threatening messages from my wife that my “lifestyle” could affect custody issues.

I’m reluctant to move out and lose equal rights to our house as an asset.

But the situation’s tense.

Unhappy Housemates A: You need clear legal information on your rights regarding custody and marital assets.

Do not be so easily threatened. If she’s dating, you can date. Just be discreet, and don’t bring home any of these dates whom you’re just getting to know.

Push forward on your separation agreement. It’s worth a lawyer’s fee to not live in limbo in a hostile atmosphere together.

It’s also an unhealthy environment for young kids.

Move out even temporarily as soon as possible, without waiting months to sell the house.

You’ll be able to work on making your children feel secure again, in a different, but peaceful situation.

Q: Soon after our son was born, my wife became a workaholic and climbed the corporate ladder. I felt I had to find a way to work from home.

She stayed out late, fought with me, and controlled the budget since she earned more. And travelled when she chose.

I don’t know if she has or had lovers, other than her job and her massive ego, but I can’t take it anymore.

I worry about our three kids who’ve grown up with tension and an absent mother.

Finished A: It’s time to get pro-active about your life, both as a father and as an individual.

Get professional guidance to make a plan that’s workable, and to regain your confidence to take charge of your life.

It’s clear that you’re considering whether to separate. Meanwhile, start a fitness regime to boost your energy and self-esteem, and look for ways to invigorate both your work life and your involvement with your kids.

COUNTRY MUSIC

Poverty Plainsmen back from a long break

By Ashley Martin When Desi Smith left a guitar at the family farm in southwest Manitoba in 1979, his baby brothers wasted no time getting their hands on it.

Mark Smith, 13, and Sean, 8, learned songs of The Eagles, Gordon Lightfoot and Jim Croce from “guitar made easy” books.

The instrument “was way too big for me,” says Sean, “so I’d lay it on my lap and I figured out how to play chords.”

Sean considered that method again in 2004, after a car accident in northern Alberta left him paralyzed from the chest down.

The Poverty Plainsmen, the band the Smith brothers co-founded in 1987, was coming back from a show in High Level when their van rolled.

“Right after it happened, I was really gung ho (and) optimistic to develop a way to play again,” says Sean, the band’s former bassist. “I think I’m still trying to figure that out in a way.”

Wednesday, when the Poverty Plainsmen take The Pump stage in Regina for the first time in eight years, Sean will pitch in on vocals and maybe the harmonica.

As for guitar, “I think it’s probably never going to get to my satisfaction, but at least with something in front of me in terms of a guitar, I don’t feel naked up there,” he says. “It’s just frustrating that my abilities don’t meet the standards that I once had. But I’m trying to let that go.”

“And he had high standards,” Mark interrupts. “Higher than me.”

Having fun is what matters most — that goes for the whole band, which also features brothers Brian Kelly (bass, vocals) and Anthony Kelly (lead guitar, vocals), Don Jorgenson (keyboard, mandolin), and Jayson Brinkworth (drums).

“We’ve got two sets of brothers that are pretty vocal,” jokes Mark,

When the Poverty Plainsmen quit touring in 2007, their lineup consisted of, from left, Johnny Gasparic, Don Jorgenson, Mark Smith, Brad Johnson and Brian Kelly.

who plays rhythm guitar and sings lead vocals.

“I think a lot of our ideas about music align,” Brian, the elder Kelly, adds.

“We’re kind of cut from the same fabric,” says Sean.

“We’re farm boys and come from the country,” says Mark.

“Started out with nothing; chased cows,” Sean says.

They all laugh.

“Half-ton cowboys,” says Brian.

When Mark and Sean got together with Brad Johnson and Kurt Neis in 1987, their plan was one gig only: Halloween night, the Palace Hotel in Melita, Man. They played Alabama and Nitty Gritty Dirt Band covers,

the only ones in the bar without costumes. Sean was 16 in Grade 11.

“We didn’t have aspirations to do it full-time,” says Mark.

They just wanted to jam to get better on their instruments.

“It took on a life of its own,” says Sean.

The next Halloween, they played The North 40 in Brandon, an ‘A circuit’ country bar.

“Then we thought we were pretty good,” says Sean.

Those boys from the Poverty Plains of Manitoba “played for about 21 years straight after that,” says Mark, who moved to Regina in 1992.

The band toured from Thunder Bay, Ont., to Prince George, B.C. One

time, they were on the road 49 weeks in a row.

The Kelly brothers had a similar start in music.

“We just wanted to get better,” says Brian, who previously played with Shifty Morgan, which won the Saskatchewan Country Music Award for group of the year in 2004.

When the Poverty Plainsmen took a hiatus in 2007, the band had won that award a record seven times.

“There was a band called Wyatt that was kind of on our shirt tails for the last while, but I’m not sure if they caught us or not. But if they did, congratulations,” Mark says, laughing.

(Indeed, Wyatt has won every year since and now has eight SCMAs.) The Poverty Plainsmen decided in 2007, with three albums under their belt, to take a break. They’d planned on a year; before they knew it, seven had flown by.

“But when we played together, it felt like we never stopped,” says Mark. “I’m very happy that there’s still an audience out there that wants to come and listen to us.”

Catch the Poverty Plainsmen Wednesday at the Pump and Saturday at the Moose Jaw Hometown Fair. amartin@leaderpost.com Twitter.com/LPAshleyM

Home-smoked bacon

SO MUCH TO BE SAID FOR OUR GREAT LINEUP OF SPEAKERS!

Keep it simple when making your own bacon, advises Jason Story, who own a delicatessen in Washington, D.C., which specializes in house-cured and smoked meats. Washington Post Photo by Scott Suchman

By Jim Shahin Before the smoking step, you’ll need to soak a cup of apple wood chips (preferably) or hickory or cherry wood chips in water for one hour.

And you’ll need an instant-read thermometer.

The spice mixture can be refrigerated up to three days in advance. The bacon needs to cure in the refrigerator for seven days; the rinsed, drained bacon needs to air-dry in the refrigerator for eight to 24 hours. The air-dried bacon can be refrigerated for up to one week or frozen for up to three months. The cured, smoked bacon needs to be refrigerated for at least four hours and up to one week.

Savory Smoked Bacon Makes 40 thin slices > 2 1/2 lb (1.13 kg) skinless pork belly > 2 tbsp (30 mL) kosher salt > 1 tbsp (15 mL) coarsely ground black pepper > 1 tsp (5 mL) dried thyme leaves (may substitute 2 tsp/10 mL fresh thyme leaves, rinsed and dried) > 1/4 tsp (1 mL) ground cayenne pepper > 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL) ground allspice > 1/4 tsp (1 mL) chipotle powder > 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL) pink curing salt (optional) Instructions: 1. Rinse the belly and dry it thoroughly. Trim it so that it forms a long rectangle.

2. Combine the kosher salt, black pepper, thyme, cayenne pepper, allspice, chipotle powder and pink salt, if using, in a gallon-size (4.5-L) zip-top bag. Add the pork belly and seal, pressing out as much air as possible. Massage

to distribute the curing mix evenly. Refrigerate for 7 days, turning the bag over once a day.

3. Rinse the cure from the meat, and pat the meat dry with paper towels. Let the meat airdry in the refrigerator for 8 to 24 hours.

4. Prepare the grill for indirect heat. If using a gas grill, turn the heat to high. Drain the chips and put them in a smoker box or foil packet poked with a few fork holes to release the smoke. Set it between the grate and the briquettes, close to the flame. When you see smoke, reduce the heat to medium-high (450 F/230 C). Turn off the burners on one side.

5. If using a charcoal grill, light the charcoal or briquettes. When the briquettes are ready, distribute them on one side of the grill. For a medium-hot fire, you should be able to hold your hand 6 in. (15 cm) above the coals for 4 or 5 seconds. Scatter the wood chips over the coals.

6. Place the pork belly on the indirect-heat side of the grill. Close the lid and cook/smoke for 1 hour. Slide an instant-read thermometer into one side of the belly; when the bacon is done, its internal temperature should register 150 F (65 C). If it is below that, smoke for about 30 more minutes, but don’t worry about the exact internal temperature of the meat; you are just giving it smoke for flavour.

7. Transfer the slab of bacon to a cutting board; once it has cooled completely, wrap it in aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 1 week. Before using, set the bacon in the freezer for about 10 minutes (chilled bacon is easier to slice).

8. Fry thin slices in a skillet over medium heat for about 4 minutes per side, until crisp. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.

Belgian brewer answers call for gluten-free beer

ENTER TO WIN

DAILY RIDER GIVEAWAYS

By James Romanow Summertime and the living is full of beer. Face it, you’re going to spend at least some time soon sitting outside soaking up sunshine and sipping some beer. Unless, of course, you are gluten sensitive.

The very first cri-de-coeur I got as a booze expert was from a man whose life had become completely miserable due to Celiac disease.

Virtually everything he loved was off the menu. No beer!

Such a howl of existential pain was heart rending, and the Belge heard his cry and felt his pain. No one in the borders of Belgium could conceive of a life so empty that it must be beer-free. Behold the product of their labours, a gluten-free beer that deserves at least a Nobel prize. (Hey they gave one to Mother Teresa!)

Presenting Mongozo, a Belge brewer, with an African connection. The founder’s grandmother gave him her recipe for palm beer, which was his only possession when arriving in Belgium in 1993. He used it as the inspiration for the flavoured brews of the company. (African beer uses different sources of starch, so often has completely different flavours.)

Mongozo Pilsner is a very nice beer. It’s not as sharp as a Czech pilsner but it has more pils than most Canadian brews. The grain source is pure malted barley — organic and also fair trade, apparently the world’s first fair trade la-

ger — and thus is gluten-free.

If you love good lagers, and in particular pilsner, you have to pick up a bottle or three of Mongozo. (And from experience most of the rest of us should keep a couple of bottles around for guests.)
