Getting Back to Normal

T

here are signs that we are on our way to getting back to normal.

COVID-19 cases keep steadily dropping as vaccination rates continue to increase. School vaccinations are the next piece of the puzzle which will help us get to less provincial restrictions on our lifestyles this summer.

Thank you to those that made the effort to get vaccinated. Those of you that haven’t, well... you already know that you are dragging the rest of us down, so you don’t need to hear it from me again !

But we are already back to normal in so many ways...

We just lived through a month of fire bans, which has become normal now.

People seemed to pay more attention this year too. There could have been way more fires than there were.

Hopefully more rain will end the bans.

Farmers have just spent most of May getting their crops seeded into the dry dusty soil... that seems normal too.

Gardens all got tilled during May and many gardeners had to cover the plants due to one last frost... again, normal.

Then we recently experienced a cold, damp May long weekend. I don’t know anything more normal than that !

Fortunately I’ve gotten old and have quit going to the lake that weekend, but for years that too seemed normal.

And in June we will have yet another Father’s Day. I’ve now experienced 20 of them and they are no longer what they once were. This year I’d be happy with what was once normal... a card made of elbow maccaroni and a tie for closet !

Happy Father’s Day !

Letter to Editor

s we navigate the scary times we live in, the vulnerable citizens of Saskatchewan become more and more frustrated and scared.

There are so many confusing messages coming from our government and this has created more mental health issues and fear within society.

As an individual with lived experience and advocating for a fair and equal society, I am proud to be a Member of Barrier Free Saskatchewan. We as BFSK members have written a letter to Premier Moe on more than one occasion asking for a copy of the Medical Protocol Triage plan for Saskatchewan. After three attempts to receive a response Barrier Free Saskatchewan has asked for the resignation of the Saskatchewan Minister of health, based upon the total disregard for the lack of consideration for individuals who would be clearly left out of consideration in the case of emergency rooms being overwhelmed.

The disability community has yet again been disregarded in their request for transparency from this government.

I would like to ask for the peoples review of www.barrierfree Saskatchewan.org website and see the letters we have written to the provincial government for support. You are welcome to take these letters and make them your own and send in your thoughts. We have been snubbed when we asked for a meeting and then ignored when asking for a response on Medical Protocol.

When will this government be transparent and accountable to the people of this province?

Brenda Edel Vice President Barrier Free Saskatchewan www.barrierfreesaskatchewan.org

Down the Road

I

by Brian Brannagan

A Mill Hill Story - The Old Retired Guy

have been hiking up one of the local trails, Mill Hill, for years, several times a week. It's not a real big hike, but a little steep - about 3 kilometres up and 3/4 of a kilometre down.

With the pandemic and the gyms closed, my wife Connie frequently accompanies me.

While, to my chagrin, Connie lopes up the hill much faster, way faster than I do, I assuage that chagrin by letting her make her own way back down while I proceed more expeditiously, and Connie encourages me to do so - "You go, boy," she says, "Run".

So off I go - leaping, bounding, running.

I was coming down the other day and just as I hit the final stretch where the

trail isn't so steep and the footing is less precarious, I see a couple that I know a little way on ahead.

So of course, in an excess of hubris, showing off, I put on an extra burst of speed. The wind is rushing past my face, the ground is a blur beneath my feet, I am a silver-haired, fleet-footed Mercury, god of speed, hurtling through the sylvan glade.

As I pass them the woman part of the couple calls after me, "Look at you you're almost running!"... ...and this dejected, old, retired guy, muttering unintelligible imprecations, continued on, trudging wearily back to his truck.

Life can be so cruel sometimes.

COUNCIL REPORTS A

TOWN OF ASqUITh

squith Town Council held its regular council meeting on May 12, 2021. Attending were Mayor Gail Erhart, Councillors, Jackie Stobbe, Cecilia Mryglod, Jeff Eide, Wade Monks-Janzen, Jodi Nehring, and Darcy Stack. Also attending was C.A.O. Kathy Picketts and Foreman Darren Kraft. The meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m.

A resolution was made to accept the council minutes from the April 14, 2021 regular council meeting.

Council made a motion to accept the April 2021 financials and April 2021 bank reconciliations as presented to them at the meeting.

Accounts Paid in the amount of $41,719.42 and Accounts Payable of $55,085.41 were accepted as presented.

The Town of Asquith has set the 2021 Operating Budget with revenues of $3,606,107.00, expenditures of $3,588,321.00, and a projected surplus of $17,786.00, and further that the municipal mill rate be set at 10.15 mills. The mill rate is going up; however the assessment went down. This increased mill rate is just a way to make it revenue neutral.

Spring brings a joy for everyone to be out and about enjoying the weather. This includes dog owners who are out walking their dogs. The Town of Asquith would like again to remind all dog owners that dog feces MUST be picked up when out walking your dogs.

Please be considerate of others when walking your dog and pick up dog feces.

Please be reminded that you CANNOT put empty propane tanks or used tires in your garbage or recycling bins.

If you have changed your phone number, please contact the Asquith Town Office to update. Often this office must contact individuals regarding water disruptions and an updated number is not available.

Did you know……that if you take out a building permit, the onus is on the property owner to contact the building inspector to make a final inspection and to close the permit. Failure to do so results in your permit being left open and as such could pose a real problem for you should you decide to sell your property. If you are not sure whether your permit was finalized or closed, please feel free to contact the Asquith Town Office. More information regarding building permits can be found on the town website at www.townofasquith.com.

A reminder goes out to all individuals that the Town of Asquith has a Burning Bylaw which dictates that one can have a fire in town for recreational use only.

Only clean wood/firewood can be burned in your fire pits - no painted/treated wood, refuse, leaves, etc. should be burned. Be kind to your neighbor and to the environment and burn only clean wood materials.

Also, no bonfires are allowed - please keep the size of your backyard fires moderate.

Enjoy your Spring!

help Wanted: The Pandemic Puppy Effect

I

t was a long sad goodbye, as most long time dog owners would tell you, when you have an elderly dog that has been part of your family for more than 15 years. Last summer our family made the decision with our Veterinarian, Dr. Lori Fraser owner of Delisle Veterinary Services, to have our beloved German Shepherd, Haley cross that Rainbow Bridge.

Months before Haley’s departure from our family I was watching the news feeds on my smartphone and television about the outbreak of Covid in China in December of 2019. I did not think it could arrive here. It seemed to be happening a world away.

Then it was here. I was comforted knowing I had my ‘emotional rock’ Haley by my side as people felt fear and anxiety as it arrived in Saskatchewan. With little notice in mid- March people were suddenly displaced from the comforts of their workplaces, lost their jobs or had to work from home as all non-essential services closed. I felt safe that with my family and dog my ‘world’ was not so bad, being socially isolated at Pike Lake from Covid’s life threatening spread. We being unprepared for lockdown. News was beginning to emerge amidst the reports of numbers of illness and deaths that people were hoarding, thus creating a shortage of toilet paper, bleach, yeast, flour and puppies ! And people who had never owned a dog or cat were suddenly seeking the companionship and ‘help’ of a home office assistant. Rescues, pedigrees and shelter dogs were suddenly finding homes.

between pet and human. Ongoing destructive behavior patterns can spiral downward increasing the likelihood of future surrender of the dog. Having your puppy used to being alone for periods during the day or evening while being in a crate or secure chain link fenced kennel are good early training experiences that will lessen their anxiety and future destructive chewing behaviour, especially when they need to be housed at a vet clinic” or kenneling facility.

On a ‘paw’sitive note - the pandemic has allowed many pup owners the gift of time to train their puppies in hopes of achieving a well-mannered dog. Dr. Fraser suggests these resources to help with puppy training; seeking mentors, enrolling in dog obedience classes, reading books or, in very serious cases, a veterinary consult.

In July, after one week of being ‘dog-less’ in our home, I wasted no time starting my search for the perfect puppy. On breeders’ websites I found that wait times were six months or longer. I chose a breeder in Saskatchewan due to the Covid travel restrictions, completed the necessary paperwork and sent the required deposit to be placed on the waiting list. Then waited… much like an expectant mother waiting 9 months for a child to arrive.

But a pleasant surprise was in store for our family.

The breeder contacted me to say that she had an extra female pup from a different litter and would we like to take her home in September ? The answer was yes !

I wasn’t going to miss this train going by.

With our new puppy’s arrival we learnt we could no longer book routine vaccinations on short notice, another effect of the pandemic’s pressure on local vet clinics. Restricted hours of operations and increasing numbers of pets acquired by clients this past year has resulted in longer wait times for non-emergent services. Dr. Fraser said “vet services have been deemed essential services and we have been open since day one of the pandemic. We have been busier with more newborn puppies, exams and behavior consultations.

Covid may have tipped the decision scale for some of my clients to become breeders to replace their lost job income, with more time to raise and sell the pups.”

Carri Petty - 8 weeks - Sept. 2020 The pandemic has not been kind to the travel and leisure related industries. Kenneling businesses have also had a sudden drop in revenue. Deborah Dunster, of Trackline K-9 Kennels near Delisle, was recently going through her boarding client list. With upcoming summer holiday season approaching “only a half dozen or so still patronize the kennel. Everyone else is not travelling or no longer have their dogs. Tough times for many, in many ways” she said.

A bigger issue is looming on the horizon for pandemic dog owners. How will our unshaven office assistants take the news when we tell them we have to leave our routine after more than a year of working from home ?

We may be missing our co-workers but our pups will surely be missing us more.

Suddenly ‘unemployed’ pups will find ways to tell us how much they will miss our constant company.

Leaving your pup alone can be a source of anxiety for them and is one of the biggest issues that Dr Fraser provides consultations for. “Dogs can express their separation anxiety in a number of ways, the most harmful being destructive behaviour. Diarrhea, ingesting drywall or baseboards, self-mutilation, all require immediate medical attention but more importantly, these destructive behaviors harm the human bond

Dr. Lori Fraser owner of Delisle Veterinary Services In this DIY pandemic world that has made us barbers, bakers and home-school educators, Dr. Fraser suggests you should also home-school your puppy to learn three behaviour that ground them when triggers may escalate their unwanted behaviour. Sit, stay and come are the three essential behaviour that any owner should start teaching their puppy as early as possible.

Puppies imprint their experience with you between the ages of 9-16 weeks according to Dr. Fraser. “They look to you for your judgement about a situation and your reactions’. Puppies are challenging to train, especially after the comfort of an old dog whose behaviors have adapted to the energy and tone of the owner’s home. “Preparing your puppy early on for positive experiences in a variety of situations including going to the vet clinic, rides in the car away from home, wearing a collar, being handled by non-family members and being groomed, are good to start as young as possible in your puppy’s life” she stated.

A book she recommends for new puppy owners is ‘How to Raise a Puppy You Can Live With’ by Clarice Rutherford and David Neil. The book is sorted by behaviour issues and can be read non-sequentially by the behavior you want to address.

Increased enrolments of puppies and handlers in good canine citizen behavior classes with a qualified dog trainer that can support the early stages of the puppies training has created another pandemic shortage of spaces, resulting in longer waiting lists.

The last option to address more severe anxiety behaviors are prescribed medications after a Veterinary examination and subsequent advice to owners to safely administer the medication.

Nothing can take the place of quality time and attention that every puppy needs to thrive. With elementary school children in the home it’s an easy spontaneous play. For empty nesters, care and attention to your puppy is a required daily task. Every dog needs a job, as the saying goes. This winter during my home office lunch breaks and after work, my puppy office assistant and I enjoyed the benefits of cross country skiing in our back wood trails and on Pike Lake.

She trots to the mailbox at the end of the road to collect the mail. She loves to play ball and enjoy the changing seasons while walking in our woods. The sparkle in her eyes and her contented sighs while resting after our physical activities tells me that our life is good, even in a pandemic.

ictoria Day long weekend is a first chance for many folks to get their docks set up, prep boats for the season, and head out on the open water.

But cold water is an important factor to consider, well into the summer season. The Canadian Red Cross has some water safety tips to help you enjoy the water – safely.

“The most important thing is to be prepared,” said Lesley-Anne Morley, Canadian Red Cross injury prevention manager in Saskatchewan. “The number one way to prepare is to wear a Canadian-approved Personal Flotation Device (PFD). Every year, avoidable boating-related fatalities occur across the country.

The proper use of PFDs would greatly reduce this number. Personal Flotation Devices are specially designed for a variety of activities so choose a PFD that can provide insulation against cold water.”

When choosing a Personal Flotation device, use this checklist: • Is it Canadian-approved?

• Will it support the person it was made for?

• Are all the snaps, belts, ties, tapes and/or zippers in good condition?

• Is it easy to put on and take off?

• Can you move your arms freely when wearing it?

• Does it let you bend at the waist?

• Can you see the ground at your feet and walk over obstacles easily?

• Does it keep your head above water?

• Can you swim and manoeuvre easily in the water?

• Have you attached a whistle to your flotation device?

Safe Boating Awareness Week May 22nd - 28th

N

orth American Safe Boating Awareness Week will take place across Canada from May 22nd to May 28th, 2021. The purpose of this initiative, managed by the CSBC (Canadian Safe Boating Council) and its partners, is to promote safe and responsible boating practices In Canada, 16 million people enjoy recreational boating. That number is going up, some say by large double-digit percentage increases (20, 30 even 40 %), driven the past and this coming year by Covid-19. Social distancing and restricted travel have been keeping people closer to home. Marine dealers across North America have reported empty shelves of boating safety gear and exhausted inventories of new and used boats as many people new to boating have made purchases and are taking to the water for the first time.

Although this ‘new’ to boating group has made boating safety information more critical than ever before, prior to COVID, boating safety was still an important communication by boating safety educators and advocates to make boaters more aware of their roles and responsibilities to themselves, their passengers, other boaters and those on shore.

There are five key boating safety messages directed towards the most common boating related accidents.

They include: 1. Wear a lifejacket 2. Boat sober.

3. Be prepared. Both you and your boat.

4. Take a boating course 5. Be aware of cold water risks.

In case someone does get submerged, watch for signs of hypothermia ranging from mild to severe.

• Mild hypothermia involves vigorous shivering, complaining of the cold, decreased physical function and difficulty taking care of self.

• Moderate hypothermia involves weak and intermittent shivering or shivering that later stops, sometimes complaining of the cold, lack of coordination or speech, confused or unusual behaviour, impaired judgment, and possible unresponsiveness.

• Severe hypothermia involves shivering that has stopped, unresponsiveness, breathing that has slowed down or stopped, the body feels stiff, and no pulse.

“When treating hypothermia, if there are other people around, get into a HUDDLE”, advises Morley.

“HUDDLE with everyone’s chests and sides close together. Intertwine legs and extend your arms around the people next to you. You can increase your survival time by 50% using this method.”

Ensuring that everyone is wearing a Personal Floatation Device, keeping an eye out for changing weather conditions, and knowing the signs and treatments for hypothermia, will help you safely navigate the wonderful long weekends of a Canadian summer.

‘STAY-cation’ Art Tour West Central Arts Community To Host Unique Weekend Tour June 26-27

B

randing it the “River & Rail ArtVenture”, local organizers are optimistic their self- guided driving tour will be sweet relief from a year of pandemic induced cabin fever.

The concept of the event is this: visitors plot their own route through west central Saskatchewan, stopping along the way to meet many of the region’s creative entrepreneurs on their own turf. The 26 different venues include galleries, private studios, workshops, a winery and other stops showcasing the talents of some 50 local artists, artisans, musicians and writers.

Key organizers of the event are Outlook-based artists and volunteers Janet Akre and Susan Robertson.

“Who doesn’t need a good road trip right about now?” they laugh, putting the finishing touches to their labour of love that has taken months to pull together.

“The wonderful things is that participation is 100% free,” explains Akre. “All we ask is that people respect the places and spaces they visit, and of course adhere

to all provincial COVID-19 protocols in place.”

“It’s a great opportunity for visitors to explore behind the scenes into the creative lives – and loves – of local creators in their many different shapes and forms. It’s a rare chance to engage with fascinating folks working in a variety of creative endeavours including painting, jewellery, sculpture, fabric art, pottery, music, writing, metalwork and agribusiness – right where they live, work and play.”

Tour dates are one weekend only, June 26 and 27.

Maps, biographies, suggested routes and all details are posted to the website riverandrailartventure.ca The 2021 River & Rail ArtVenture is presented by the Outlook & District Arts Council in partnership with Tourism Saskatchewan.

MP REPORT The Liberals have been pushing forward with their attempts at online censorship through Bill C-10. Recently, at Committee, the Liberals, with the help of the NDP, removed a section of the Bill which specifically protected individual user content (i.e. your posts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.).

If this Bill passes in its current form, Canadians using social media and the internet in general could have their content and posts subject to broad and vague government powers.

This is completely unacceptable.

Canadians have always enjoyed freedom of speech and expression. These rights were first formalized in law by the Bill of Rights passed in 1960. They were further enforced by the adoption of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Liberal’s Internet Censorship Bill C-10

“But great oaks out of little acorns grow. Beware the seedlings of thought and speech control. Which is another way of saying do not let governments even toy with the fundamentals of democratic understanding and the absolutes of democratic practice.” Rex Murphy

phone: 306 - 221 - 8558

Canada already has laws that protect against hate speech and libelous statements. What is being contemplated by Liberals and pushed for by their left-wing base goes much, much further.

Liberal Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault (who introduced C-10) has stated that he is okay with a government agency having the authority to shut down a website or block online content on the basis the content was vaguely hurtful or offensive.

I believe that this truly is a sinister move by the Liberal government to crack the door open for internet censorship and to erode the freedoms of Canadians.

Social media and online interaction have become a crucial part of Canadians’ lives especially during this pandemic.

Conservatives are opposed to Bill C-10 and will do all we can to defeat it. We will continue to fight for the rights of Canadians and protect free speech.

AGRICULTURE REPORTS Now is the time for Comprehensive Change to Grain Commission model, say Canada’s Grain Farmers

May 21, 2021 (Ottawa, ON) – On welcome news of the Canadian Grain Commission’s fee reduction, effective August 1, 2021, Canada’s grain farmers continue to underscore the need for comprehensive change to the organization’s scope and services.

As the voice of grain farmers in Ottawa, the Grain Growers of Canada recently submitted a series of actionable and urgent requests to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada under the Canada Grain Act Review – chief among them the need to redefine the role of the Grain Commission and avoid any need for excess surpluses in the future.

“We have a historic opportunity to redefine the role of the Grain Commission and make it work for farmers,” said GGC chair Andre Harpe

FARMERS DO YOU LOVE BEES ?

Would you be interested in hosting a Bee Yard on your land ?

Are you within the Pike Lake, Vanscoy, Delisle, Grandora and Asquith Area ?

Mike’s Bees is looking for a Bee Yard that is situated near canola, alfalfa, clover or wildflower field.

They love having a shelter of trees on one side receiving morning sun.

Bees are said to increase crop yield by 30% Protect and Enhance Your Habitat

from his farm in Valhalla Centre, AB. “Part of this big change should involve returning surpluses to farmers and relying on third-party providers for weighing and inspection services.”

Third-party service providers are already performing weighing and inspection services for approximately $0.50 per tonne – nearly half the rate that of the current Grain Commission model, even under a reduced fee structure.

By shifting to an oversight role, the Grain Commission can focus on fostering a regulatory environment that enhances agriculture’s competitiveness and ensures the delivery of high-quality grain for domestic and export markets. This would come with the added benefit of reducing the huge surpluses that are a consequence of the current model, and which place a huge burden on farmers.

“We have been calling on the Grain Commission to reduce their service fees ever since 2017, when we learned that they had accumulated a significant surplus by overcharging farmers,” Harpe added. “Farmers are price takers, and we need a model where costs are not passed on to us when a more viable option is available.”

Under the current system, the grain industry incurs the costs for both the third-party inspection company and the CGC inspection.

Many Rural Municipalities have imposed Total Fire Bans. Please check with your local Municipality for details.

No Open Flames Allowed (Includes Fire Pits, Burning Barrels, Incinerators, etc)

Propane Heaters, BBQ, and Briquettes are allowed
