Trump has convinced them that the real enemy is not only all the democratically elected officials in both parties, but also their fellow citizens... Mexican immigrants are the cause all crime, American Muslims are all terrorists, African Americans are the cause of police racism, the Media are all liars, Women are nasty, etc, etc, etc.

Better the Devil You Don’t Know ?
t has been said that, when having to choose between two unpopular political candidates, say Hillary Rodham Clinton and Donald J. Trump, it is....
“better the devil you know, than the devil you don’t”. This translates into politicians are all scumbags who will screw you, but you will likely get screwed more by the one that you don’t know very much about. This is probably too negative of a view to attach to all people that are willing to enter public life and work for the rest of us, to make our lives better in whatever way they see as important, and that we agreed to, through a democratic vote. After all, they are just real people like you and I, with all the warts and faults that come with being humans. You see some of it, in somebody, somewhere, every day...
Sure, Hillary Clinton is no angel, and like the rest of us, has many flaws and has made many mistakes, more than we will ever know. But by not promoting this about herself, in fact doing her best to hide it and not talk about it, she comes across as secretive, allowing Trump to then demonize her as “Crooked Hillary”. In a few days, Americans will have to make a choice for the most powerful office in the world. Will it be secretive, crooked Hillary the Devil they don’t know or trust ? Or will it be crazy ass Trump, the Devil they have come to know all too well ? Recent polls show that they will likely go with “the Devil they DON’T know” But then what ? Is the war over... or has the Trump war just begun ? A Hillary win will likely not be acceptable to the more radical Trump supporters. The election was rigged ! Reject the results ! The Revolution begins now ! And that Revolution will directly target the groups Trump has demonized for them. Trump will need to put this evil genie back in the bottle with a strong concession speech on November 8th, but that just doesn’t sound like “the Devil I know”,
Are people Racist ? Absolutely ! Are people Sexist ? You bet. Misogynists ? Unfortunately some are. Cheaters ? Yup. Hypocrites ? Whenever they have to be ! Liars ? Everywhere you look in politics. Greedy bastards ? Yup, lots of those too. Are there some people that are obsessed with Power ? Sure there are, but some more than others, right Donald ??
An even scarier thought is that Trump actually wins the election ! Either way, God help us.... and God HELP the United States of America ! Ken Sowter - Editor
There is some level of these negative traits within all of us, and we are usually judged by our ability, or at least our willingness, to suppress and control them. In a democracy, politicians try to downplay any of these characteristics, but instead focus on selling their positive traits, in order to get elected... not the Donald. Proudly claiming to be a political outsider and an unapologetic, non-politically correct everyday billionaire, Trump has connect with a disturbingly high percentage of disgruntled American voters who feel the current system has let them down. How has he managed to accomplish this ? It said that to get support for a war, you must first demonize the enemy. Trump has relentlessly ‘demonized’ all of his opponents in order to make himself acceptable. Stupid Leaders, Low Energy Jeb, Lying Ted, Little Marco... all LOSERS !! The Republican party, so worried about losing to Hillary Clinton, sold their soul to “the Devil they Know” to avoid Trump running as an Independent. But as they get to know their devil, with almost daily sensational revelations, they are wanting to jump off the crazy train, but doing so is ripping their party in two. If they don’t jump... they face the wrath of half of their own supporters who now blame them for selling out their party to Trump. If they do jump... they will be punished by the other half of their supporters who are now convinced that judgement day has come, and Trump is their savior ! It is these latter Republican supporters we should be concerned about... Donald Trump has run a campaign that not only highlighted many of the negative characteristics that he possesses, but he has made every effort to encourage it in his supporters as well. They now feel empowered to embrace these dark underlying character traits in themselves as the path to power.

Memorial Dedicated for Police and Peace Officers Killed in the Line of Duty
O
n Sunday, October 2nd, after 13 years of planning, the Saskatchewan Police and Peace Officers Memorial Committee held a ceremony at TreeTernity, near Vanscoy, to plant a tree that will serve as a memorial to all provincial Police and Peace Officers that have been killed in the line of duty. Master of ceremonies, Staff Sergeant Grant Obst began the ceremony at 11:00am, which included remarks from Saskatchewan Lieutenant Governor Vaughn Solomon Schofield.
TreeTernity located south of Vanscoy
The dedication also included a formal color party and the Saskatoon Police Pipe and Drum Band, including a solo performance by our own local Dave Mackintosh.
Mia Hollinger, owner and creator of TreeTernity Memorial Forest, provided the plot of land, a tree and a commemorative plaque. TreeTernity is located 1.5 KM South of Vanscoy on Township Road 3075. More information is available on Facebook.

Two Phases of the Rejuvenation Project are now Completed at the Delisle Public Library
D
elisle Branch Library is pleased to invite you to an Open House on Nov. 2, 7:00-9:00 p.m., in celebration of the completion of the first two phases of the multi-faceted Library Rejuvenation Project. The first phase of the project included the addition of sleek end-shelving units (built by Cliff Merkosky) to better house and display new library materials. A cozy reading nook with comfortable big chairs was added. Innovative storage solutions and numerous other small modifications have opened up space and improved both the public area appearance and the behind-the-scenes workings of the library. These alterations were made possible by contributions from Laura Multiple 4-H Club, Delisle Community Players, and Delisle Library fundraising events, as well as through individual donations.
The second and largest phase of the project was achieved thanks to the generous financial support of Agrium, Delisle Crops for Community, and the Town of Delisle. Visitors to the library are now greeted at a large curving reception desk, engineered by Northern Wood Design. The two-tiered design is attractive, ergonomic and functional, facilitating flow and efficiency of service while ensuring patron privacy and comfort. The children’s area has also undergone a complete transformation. Custom shelving maximizes available space and provides child-friendly access to books. Corkboards extending to the ceiling make a backdrop for themed displays designed to stimulate interest in reading about new seasons, occasions, different cultures and many other motifs. A large “reading tree” area-rug offers cushioned
comfort for kids during the regularly scheduled “Story Time” events. Additional custom shelving houses over-sized graphic novels and frees up room for more material of interest to children and young adults. Fresh white paint on the walls and the concealment of existing utilities such as the sink and book-drop have contributed to a more modern and streamlined façade. The end result is a library with a contemporary and professional appearance, which still maintains a quirky charm and a warmly welcoming atmosphere. Phase three of the Library Rejuvenation Project is currently under consideration – stay tuned! Article by Susan Bayne, Board Member

have had the opportunity to travel over much of the world which has given me a very special view of the people and their differences. If one of these people from far away passes one by in Saskatoon they are bound to draw attention. It doesn’t take much to identify the “FOREIGNER”; a different mustache, baggy trousers, a sari or perhaps a hijab. You may smile at them because they are different, or you may turn your eyes away because you don’t want to stare. Some of this is racist but mostly just not knowing how to approach those of a different race or colour. I have experienced this treatment in many countries. The adults are shy at first but if given the opportunity will be

friendly and generous. The children will be the first to leap the cultural barrier and soon are touching the strange white skin. There is a wall that has to be scaled which is a form of racism but once contact is established the normal instinct is to be friendly and generous in whatever is considered proper in their culture. Invariable I have been welcomed in the countries I have travelled to and worked in. Where ever one goes, the locals are warm and generous and, given the opportunity, will share their culture in exchange for your good will. Opinions expressed here are exclusively those of the author.

Please remember that all garbage and recycling bins must be out by 7 a.m. on Thursdays for pickup. It was noted by Loraas on Thursday, October 20, 2016 that there were sixty-five carts that were not yet put out by 8:00 a.m. There were two carts that were placed backwards, with the lids opening towards the residence-these carts cannot be picked up as the truck would wreck the lids. Also, there were some residences that put more than one cart out, and if the carts are less than four feet apart, or four feet from a parked vehicle, they will not be picked up. Some individuals continue to overload their carts unicipal elecplease remember that tions took place across the the cart must have the
lid closed in order to be picked up. This is to minimize or eliminate waste or recycling blowing around when the truck driver dumps the cart. Also, with winter looming, it is important to remember that once there is snow that has been ploughed and pushed up at the edges of the road, the cart must be far enough forward of the snowbanks for the truck to pick it up. Failure to put your cart out on time, or to follow any of the rules or guidelines of Loraas will result in your cart not being picked up! Happy Halloween!

government had on health care and ours is that we expect that any federal dollars invested in health care actually be spent on health care for Canadians.” The entire premise of this statement by the Prime Minister is absurd. The federal government provides the provinces approximately 23% of the total amount spent on health care each year. The remaining 77% come from the provinces. The federal government could double its health care transfer tomorrow, and it would still be a minority funder of health care in Canada. Each province is responsible for the delivery of health care, whether it be the construction of new multi-disciplinary clinics or hiring new physicians.

This differs from Ontario where the majority of the population lives in the Greater Toronto Area and services can be scaled for efficiencies. It is my hope that the Prime Minister and his Minister will stop wielding a sledgehammer that is not as large as they think it is, and recognize that provinces have far and away the most skin in the game, both in terms of funding and for the delivery of health care services.

The federal government is not involved in the day to day delivery of health care. The influence that the federal government has over provincial health care delivery is concurrent to the size of its financial support for health care, which is not even one quarter of overall government spending in this area in Canada. In Saskatchewan, the federal government is earmarking $1.56 billion for health care in 20162017.The province is allocating $5.17 billion over the same period. The federal share represents 23.1% of overall government expenditures on health care in the province. The health care system was designed to allow individual provinces to de-

MP REPORT arlier this week during a Health Ministers conference, the federal Minister of Health announced that federal health transfers to the provinces would be conditional on the funding going exclusively to health care. The illogicality of the Minister’s position was quickly attacked by her provincial counterparts. They were all shocked that the federal government does not believe that federal health care transfers are going to health care. The Prime Minister supported his Minister of Health during Question Period in a response to the Leader of the Opposition Rona Ambrose: “Mr. Speaker, the main difference between the approach the previous

We started off the month of October celebrating Thanksgiving. The students said what they were thankful for (usually Mom or Dad), then they made turkeys out of paper bags. We continued our month with Number 2 day where the students made bats, counting 2 eyes, ears, fangs, and wings. For Orange Day, the students made pumpkins out of orange paper that they had cut into pieces. I think they were very happy to be using scissors! These pumpkins are hanging on the wall as a start for decorating the room for Halloween. Our Halloween party will be on Tuesday, October 25th where the students and I will dress up in costumes, make Halloween crafts, and have our annual parade at Pike Lake School. The 4-year olds started a health unit, but due to a bad weather day, we've only talked about germs. The students had a lot of fun picking up germs (confetti) that I sneezed on them. The other topics that we will explore in the coming weeks are dental health, nutrition, and exercise. In November, we will be having Black Day and Number 3 Day, as well as possibly a field trip. We will also be getting a craft ready for the Pike Lake Craft Sale which is Sunday, November 27th at the hall. Stay tuned!

Short Stories by Delisle Grade Nine Students Canadian Power
Roy Armstrong
by Edan D When another country's citizens think of Canada, they think of a relatively peaceful country, or as the nicer cousin to the United States. Only a forgotten generation knows just how powerful Canada really is. For a young country Canada has taken part in many major wars over the years. From world war one up to the present day Afghan war, we have fought alongside many powerful nations and have kept relative peace for almost a decade, but there were times when peace wasn't an option for anyone in the world. A call to arms from the British in both world wars, excited and frightened, many young men who gave up their youth to answer a call from a land another world away. Canadians started off the wars in rough shape, but using hand-me-down equipment from the British, Canada stated their relevance in war. Where the British and the French failed at Vimy Ridge, the Canadian troops excelled. When a second war broke out in this same scarred land, another generation of boys and young adults answered the call and took the plunge into hell on earth. Fighting against the worst evil yet to inherit our home, the Canadian soldiers yet again brandished their bravery and stood their ground. Between the two world wars approximately 100 000 Canadians died serving their country. A generation lost in the span of a decade of constant fighting.
by Savannah A My great grandpa, Roy Armstrong was a soldier in World War 2. He was a tank driver and he fought on D-Day. His chances to survive as a tank driver on D-Day were slim, as many of the tanks had sunk when they were put in the ocean to go ashore. My great grandfather was lucky, and his tank was one of the few to make it ashore. His chances of survival were still very slim, as he still had to go fight his way through Normandy. Canada had sent 1,074 soldiers for the battle of Normandy, and 359 of them died the first day. My grandfather was lucky enough to be one of the survivors that day. After my grandfather had fought in the war for months, maybe years, he would finally be able to go home. He went home to my loving great grandmother, and they were finally able to start their lives together. My grandfather came home and basically was had to work once again, though this time it wasn’t for the army, but for his family. He built our family farm, all by hand so he could raise a family. Once he had finished building the house he and my grandma had lots of children who are now all my aunts, uncles and one of them is my current grandfather. Roy Armstrong, my grandfather was a good man, and I am lucky enough to have been able to meet him. My grandfather lived a full good life, and passed away at the age of 102. One thing I’ll always remember about my grandfather is his bright blue eyes. They always seemed to smile, even if his mouth was frowning. Though I do miss my grandfather, I am very blessed that I had the chance to meet such a wonderful, hardworking man, and I am very proud of what he did for our country, and all the accomplishments he made.
Remembering You by Hannah C
The Christmas gift by Haitti B Christmas day is in two days. My big brother went to war and now he’s going to miss it, and my parents aren’t the same as they were when he was here but they are trying to be positive for me. My relatives are going to visit for Christmas and stay a few days. I remember the day he left, we were all sad to see him leave but he promised me he would return and when he did we would hang out and he would tell me how the war was. Now we are all scared he wouldn’t return but we try to think positive. I asked for one thing this Christmas and that was for my brother to come home and spend the holidays with us, but he wrote us a letter saying he had to stay in the war. I wrote him letters whenever I got the chance to. My brother just turned nineteen not long after he left. It seemed like years since he left but it was only three months. It’s now only one day till Christmas and my parents are going to the city to pick up our relatives. My parents told me to go down the driveway to pick up the mail, I was excited to go because there might be a letter from my brother. My parents just left and I was standing at the window waving at them, suddenly a big truck is at the end of the driveway and a guy hops out and is heading towards the door. He knocks and I go to answer it and I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, there on the porch stood my big brother. I hugged him as tight as I could. My parents came home a while later and they saw my brother and they started crying and all my relatives did too. He told us he could come home for a couple of weeks. We had a really good Christmas and my brother asked what I wanted for Christmas and I said that I wanted him to come home for the holidays. He said, “I told you I would return” and I just smiled brightly at him and hugged him once more.
My brother and I packed the very few items we had in our suitcases and then headed to the kitchen for the last breakfast we’d possibly ever have together. Silence filled the room as we ate, no one spoke for today we knew what was happening. All the boys and girls were being sent far away to homes who would foster us for the time being, being away from our parents for so long would be hard on my brother but they knew what was right. Of course we couldn’t resist or consequences would be in play. The air crisp and cool, silent as we took the horse drawn carriage to the station. Sharp cries and mellow voices of children filled the silence in the air. ALL ABOARD called a man dressed head to toe in a blue, black and yellow uniform. Father and mother hugged us tightly before we were taken by a tall peculiar man and escorted to the train. Father would be fighting for our country and mother, working as a nurse for all the hurt soldiers. The world war didn’t’ make little to least sense to me as I couldn’t fully understand what it meant. I had hope in return that one day we would have peace. I started to think about father whistling quietly while he worked and mother laughing as she tried to get brother dressed. I had wished I could go back to those times, as well as I had wished that father had still been here. The children ran around shouting “Mommy! Mommy! Look!” And for a moment I started to be grateful that I was alive. All because of the soldiers who fought for us in the war.

The Sacrificial War
We Went To War
by Zach T
by William F
War by Ella
There was fire. It was a time of war, We went to fight in the war. There was pain. The enemy is moving in, We thought that we would soar. Fought with courage, passion and hope There was blood. We stayed still, It turned out to be more. They gave up their future There was death The French and the British, And now ours are so much better This… Moved back from the enemy, We were told we would see our families again. This is the glory of war. We still stood still, Instead we got put in a pig pen. They did, and still do the work that others could This is the honour, Someone yelled, One Canadian died out of every ten. not Of dying for your country. “Either we retreat or brave through this!” They give up so much of themselves Dying, Some people would get run over by tanks. So, we advanced to the enemy, So our country can be free For your family. Shooting them with our guns, Others worried we’d run out of money in the banks. Dying, It wasn’t what we thought to advance in ranks. And the enemy shot back, What we have can be traced back to them For others. But we are still moving and advancing, So we thankfully remember Dirt would clog in every gun. And the enemy moved back, What they did and continue to do People glorify war. And while your life was coming undone. But the enemy shot out their cannons, They make it seem, You would remember your loved one. Explosions went off, We always must remember what they have done Like you should be honoured But we are still moving, for us To have been chosen to fight. We would all try to be brave. Making sacrifices every second, Because they gave us the freedom But really, But we would all get sent to our grave. And we took over the enemy, So we can be ourselves All that war is, Usually by an explosion’s shock wave. It is victory for us, Is pointless deaths, Then, even to this day, War is not good but we still must fight it Pointless pain. Boom! Boom! Boom! We shall honour those who died for us. And for those who do sacrifice so much Pointless destruction. The enemy cannons sounded our doom. We must continue to remember So we would retreat to our tomb. And a pointless struggle. The Cost of Freedom For keeping this beautiful country great Against our own humanity. War is like hell. And giving us our beautiful freedom by Keela C Every bullet a death spell. We say thank you and continue to remember But what if there was no fire? Pain filled every bomb shell. No pain, Shots fired Questions No blood, The eerie sound Each gun threw a bullet at us. And no deaths? Death in the air by Alexandra L You’d try to stand up without success. What if we didn’t need to fight? Bodies on the ground And you knew with utter sureness. War isn’t glorious. They went with the songs of the battle, Pointless death, Pure red blood Marching to the harsh cheers. That without getting to say goodbye. Isn’t necessary. Stained the sky Trying to carry their limp bodies, You were going to die. We can move on. Silence has fallen Even though you could see their rigid, tired eyes. So you look up at the sky. We are strong. Yet soldiers cry But we also must remember. People don't realize how hard it is, And wish you could have done more. Remember our mistakes. One last breath To fight for a country. Remember the fallen. Time gets slower Saying goodbye to their loved ones. Darkness forever Explaining to your 2 year old child, Because of them. Peace washes over How you'll be gone for a while. And only them, Telling your wife you'll fight for her, Can we wear our poppies Soldiers fell Even though you know you may want to give up. With pride. People died But lives are saved Getting in that car, And doves now fly You contemplated whether you wanted to do this. Fighting your own battle, The land is still When there was another one going on. Poppies grow You already made the decision, We will remember them But pain lasts There was no turning back. Soldiers know 1 year, No more fighting 2 years, Finally it’s done ...and give thanks 3 years, We are safe at last 4 years. The war is won Thoughts running back and forth. And Remember. How long is this battle going on for? Will I ever make it home? And they who for their country die Will I ever see my child again? shall fill an honored grave, So many questions.

ith the coming of October, the pace of cattle moving from summer pasture to fall grazing and wintering areas accelerates. Separating the calves from the cows for weaning often coincides with these moves. Along with the sudden change in diet and separation anxiety from not being with mom, calves are often moved to a different location, vaccinated and introduced to different herdmates. All of these stressors contribute to making freshly weaned calves susceptible to bovine respiratory disease (BRD). Take some time to review your weaning protocols and ask yourself if doing
Weaning Methods to Suit your Operation
things differently would reduce stress on the calves. Some changes may result in healthier calves with a lower BRD treatment rate. Some examples of strategies to reduce stress include; vaccinating at least 3 weeks prior to weaning; use of low stress handling techniques during gathering and sorting; utilizing the fence line weaning method or the two step weaning method. During the review, identify the materials that you are likely to require and take steps to have what is required on hand. For example, if you keep the calves following weaning, make sure that your BRD treatment protocol is up to date and the antibiotics required to
treat any calves that get sick are on farm, stored properly and have not exceeded their expiry date. It is also important to inspect and repair the area the calves are going to be placed into. Confirm the water source is clean and operating properly. If the calves have been creep fed on the pasture, placing a creep feeder filled with the same ration in the weaning pen can help maintain feed intakes. Anything that encourages the calves to eat and drink will bolster the immune system and assist in reducing the likelihood of sickness developing. Dry matter intakes of two and a half per cent of body weight or greater indicate that a calf is well.

s we move in to fall it’s time to start thinking about weaning your calves. Traditionally most producers use an abrupt form of weaning where the calf and cow are separated and not allowed any physical, vocal or visual contact with one another. This may be causing extra stress on both the cow and the calf, which could cause weight loss and a reduced immune response. Stress is caused by both the change in diet to the calf as well as the separation of the calf and cow. To help reduce this stress there are some other methods of weaning to consider. In fence-line weaning cows and calves are phys-
When calves are sick, they do not grow and gain weight. In a study evaluating the effects of weaning strategies on the performance and health of calves, 15 per cent of the calves weaned using a fenceline weaning strategy required treatment versus 30 per cent of the calves that were truck weaned. For more information regarding strategies for reducing stress at weaning, visit www.beefresearch.ca/research-topic.cfm/weaning65 or contact a Regional Livestock Specialist or call the Agriculture Knowledge Centre at 1866-457-2377.
Are You Ready to Wean ?
ically separated by a fence. It’s important that the fence is strong enough to prevent animals from getting across to the other side. This will allow animals to maintain some visual and vocal contact through the fence, but will completely eliminate nursing. There has been some research to show that fence line weaning reduces stress, which allows for increased weight gains on those calves. It’s also been found to reduce the amount of time the cow and calf spend looking for each other, which means they are spending more time eating. In two-stage weaning, calves are fitted with a nose flap to prevent them
from nursing and are left with their dams. The nose flap is left on for several days before it is removed. The idea is to first remove milk from the calf’s diet while maintaining physical contact with the dam. The calf is still able to access feed and water with the nose flap in place. Once the calf is weaned off of milk, the act of physically separating him from his mother is less stressful. By reducing the stress of weaning, you can realize health benefits to your cows and calves, which can lead to economic benefits to your ranch. When choosing a weaning method it’s important to consider what will work for you on your operation.

ake sure to maintain your property throughout your ownership as when it comes to selling, things that have not been maintained can affect the transaction. Here are the top eight issues found in home inspections.
1) Be sure all switches, GFCIs and outlets work properly. Replace bulbs in the fixtures if burnt out, to show the light works. 2) Drippy faucets, leaking plumbing, mold and water damage ware red flags that there could be bigger problems. 3) Be sure to replace filters as needed. Clean filters in HVAC sys-
tems and make sure any other issues are fixed.
4) Make sure smoke detectors and CO monitors are in working condition. 5) Try to have windows repaired if cracked or foggy and functional.
8) Doors should open and close properly and the garage door sensors should be present as it poses a safety concern.
In summary, property maintenence today will help protect your investment into the future.
6) Make sure that is there are any signs of pests ie; mouse droppings, ants, that they are taken care of as that can scare a buyer.

7) Make sure any cracks in the foundation wall are sealed. Cracks, water intrusion and uneven floor can point to more serious problems.
