Fall Features ?

Y

es I’m just as bummed out as you that summer is winding down, but we have many fall features to look forward to.

No I don’t mean the turning of the leaves or the migration of the birds or harvest or hunting, as much as many people enjoy those things.

I am refering to the activities that pop up in our communities now that we have all returned from our vacations.

Of course the showcase feature, which goes without saying, is Fall Suppers !

YUM !

I have even managed to somewhat prep my body for them this year. Apparently I was a little more active this summer (but not much), and adjusted my diet (slightly) and managed to lose, and keep off, about five pounds.

I even had to break in a new hole, one notch further from the end of my belt.

But I am willing to forego these gains and go back to that familiar well worn hole in belt to take part in as many of these scrumptious dinners as I can.

I suggest you do too !

There are lots of other fall features taking place in our communities that don’t necessarily involve gluttony.

We have highlighted many of them in this issue of the RM Review.

Not only are the schools starting up again, but community organizations are beginning their activities as well.

Maybe there is one just right for you ?

We strive to promote these worth local organizations whenever we get the chance. I often hear about how some of them are struggling, or too often I hear “oh, was that thing on last night” from folks that just didn’t get the word.

We encourage any, and all, of these hard working volunteer organizations to reach out to us (contact info is always at the bottom of this page) and we will do our best to help you stay relevant in the community with article in this paper or promotions on our website, facebook and Weekly Events Update emails.

And by the way... if you are one of the few people that are not receiving our Weekly Events Update emails, go right now... no not later... now to our website and click on the sign up button right below the Week at a Glance. www.rmreview.net and follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

A special fall feature this year is the upcoming Rural Municipal elections in October. I once again, will encourage everyone to take an interest in your local governance, as it is the one and only way to shape our society into one that we want to live in.

If you aren’t able to run for a councillor position, make sure you at least find out about who is running and go vote.

One needs only to look to our, once friendly, neighbours to the south to see what you get when you don’t vote.

And that may be the best fall feature of them all. The mid-term elections in the U.S. may very well not go ‘the Donalds’ way. As his house of cards is becoming increasingly REnovATion SPEciAliSTS unstable, the November kiTchEnS & BAThRoomS, BASEmEnT DEvEloPmEnT elections results may just PAinTing & DRyWAll, cARPEnTRy & FlooRing help it to come tumbling down.

John Arcand Fiddle Fest Wraps up Successful 21st Year

he 21st Annual John Arcand Fiddle Fest was another great one! THANK YOU EVERYONE! Our success is due to our volunteers, funders, sponsors, Board of Directors, performers, instructors AND our audience. Together we have developed a community of fiddle, music, dance and the arts and 2018 was another great year. We are so proud to work with all of you each and every year to offer a festival that celebrates talent, culture and family.

Our attendance showed more day passes, a lot of first-timers – and – many more young families…all positive steps in fulfilling our mandate of passing on traditions and definitely honoring our founder’s wish, that we be a festival that’s affordable for families to attend.

Workshops continue to be successful. The Metis Cultural Camp (finger weaving, storytelling, two kinds of beading, embroidery and traditional dance) as well as the Established Workshop series (fiddle, jigging, guitar and square dancing) – numbered 116 in total this year! They are all free with your general admission and our way of having veteran musicians, dancers and artisans transfer their knowledge to all ages. By using this method the dissemination of all the art forms are carried back to many communities right across Canada and it is our hope that it continues to grow in each of those communities and many more are exposed as every new year unfolds.

The addition of Truth and Reconciliation Q&A sessions added to the Metis Cultural Camp received

very positive feedback. By offering these, we feel a lot more people now have a clearer understanding of the calls to action and what they can do in their daily lives to further the goals.

Our interactive music and storytelling workshops in the children’s area have turned into an all-age audience favorite and in general all genres were well attended and feedback was very positive.

The daytime programming, evening concerts and music breaks during the competition presented a wonderful array of genres. From haunting native flute, to guitar and fiddle showcases, step dancing and incredible vocal performances we really mixed it up this year and the feedback was great.

Large crowd under “The Roof” at Fiddle Fest

Both Friday and Saturday end with an old time dance (with a live band) and as every year passes they grow in popularity and we are so pleased to see entire families taking part. So many youth out there “swinging their partners” and learning the dances that are very rarely enjoyed these days.

Our fiddle contest had 33 fiddlers from right across Western Canada entertain the crowd by demonstrating their talents and they were then rewarded by taking home over $7700.00 in prize money.

The Free Shuttle Service from four City locations our “Go-Green” initiative and our means of allowing those without transportation to attend also seen a huge jump in use this year.

All in all another successful year and on to planning for the 22nd Annual on the weekend of August 8th, 2019.

COUNCIL REPORTS

TOWN OF ASqUITh

squith Town Council held its regular council meeting on Wednesday, August 8, 2018. Attending were Deputy-Mayor Sue Sawicki, Councillors Dylan Claypool, Jordan Claypool, Harold Edwards, Ted Goodnough, Jeffrey Eide, Administrative Assistant Kathy Picketts and Foreman Darren Kraft.

The minutes from the July 11, 2018 council meeting were accepted as presented.

A resolution was made that the treasurer’s statement of receipts and expenditures for July 2018 be accepted as presented and that the July 2018 bank reconciliations be accepted as presented.

Accounts paid in the amount of $101,037.01 and accounts payable in the amount of $31,834.13 were accepted as presented.

The Town said goodbye to David Logue, a public works employee, as he has moved on to another employment venture. Thanks, David, for all your hard work the last few years! You will be missed!

The Town accepted a quote from Always Green Yardcare for removing stumps around town for a cost of nine hundred dollars ($900.00).

The Asquith Fire Department is currently holding two fundraisers: One is a raffle with the prize being two tickets to a Rider game in Regina on September 15, 2018.

Tickets are available at the Asquith Co-op or the Asquith Town office.

Another fundraiser is the Community Calendars.

These calendars are being sold by the Fire Department and the First Responders and are a great way to know when different meeting dates are, when garbage pickup/recycle pickup is, and whose birthday/anniversary it is that day! Calendars are $10, and purchase of a calendar allows you to put birthdays and special dates in the calendar as well. For more information, please contact a Fire Dept. member or a First Responder, or talk to Patty at the Co-op.

Speaking of fundraisers and the Saskatchewan Roughriders, Asquith Kidsport has Naaman Roosevelt posters for sale for $5.00. All excellent ways to support important groups within our community!

Many people have joined the RM of Vanscoy No. 345 Crime Watch group. If you still haven’t and you have lost your form that was sent out, please feel free to stop in at the Asquith Town office to obtain one. Joining the Rural Crime Watch will allow you to be the eyes and ears of your community. You can receive current reports and communication about crime in your area and access in real time reports of suspicious behavior through the Crime Watch Facebook Group. Statistics show that areas where there is an organized crime watch tend to have a significant reduction in criminal activity. Please be part of the solution!

The Town is again having problems with individuals, both youth and adults, not following the policy regarding ATV’s. Some individuals have seen fit to go onto the sportsgrounds and into the Baptist Church parking lot and do “doughnuts” causing a lot of damage. Individuals who wish to use ATV’s are to only drive them in Town as a direct access to and from the surrounding rural area. They are NOT allowed in the sports grounds. If there continues to be individuals violating this policy Council may have to consider barring the use of ATV’s in Town in entirety and individuals would be required to trailer their ATV’s in and out of Town. Please do not abuse the leniency Council has shown in allowing direct access to the rural area.

Summer is winding down, children are going back to school and soon Autumn will be upon us.

Enjoy the last few days of summer!

MP REPORTS Canadian Energy Self-Sufficiency

I

n light of Canada’s recent diplomatic feud with Saudi Arabia, fresh questions are being asked about Canadian imports of Saudi oil.

And rightly so.

Saudi Arabia has a deplorable human rights record – as illustrated by its shameful treatment of dissident Raif Badawi and his sister Samar– so why are we helping prop up its brutal and oppressive regime with our business?

It’s a question Conservatives have been raising for years. Perhaps this latest incident will re-ignite the debate.

Saudi Arabia’s acts of retaliation against Canada for criticizing Badawi’s treatment have included the expulsion of Canada’s ambassador, a selloff of all Canadian assets, the cancellation of planned purchases of wheat and barley, and the withdrawal of Saudi students enrolled at Canadian universities.

However, Saudi Arabia has left a crucial piece of its relationship with Canada intact. They do not plan to disrupt the sale of Saudi oil to Canada.

And why would they?

Last year, Canada spent close to $2.5 billion buying oil from Saudi Arabia. Refineries in Eastern Canada import 75,000 barrels of Saudi oil every single day. But these big numbers amount to very little in our overall energy picture – only 10% of Canada’s oil imports come from Saudi Arabia.

This isn’t much, and it means Saudi Arabia needs our money more than we need their oil. We don’t need to subsidize their brutal regime, especially when we have such a plentiful, safe and secure supply of oil in Canada.

But there’s a problem, and it’s preventing Justin Trudeau from making the strongest statement possi-

ble in defence of human rights in Saudi Arabia. Right now, we have no way to transport Canadian oil from the west to our refineries in the east.

The proposed Energy East pipeline would have solved this problem. For the first time, eastern Canadian refineries could have directly received shipments of western Canadian oil, refining it at home, in our own country. We could have cut off foreign oil imports from appalling human rights abusers like Saudi Arabia and created jobs for Canadians in the process.

Unfortunately, Justin Trudeau killed the Energy East pipeline with last-minute rule changes that put Canadian oil at a disadvantage to foreign imports. Instead of making Canada energy independent, Justin Trudeau is determined to ‘phase out’ our resource sector, leaving us even more dependent on oil supplies controlled by cruel foreign regimes like that of Saudi Arabia.

e ooti r H ation o f tr ch Wat e Regis er 6th l b elis tem at D on Sep ht Nig

Delisle Branch

Meanwhile, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh stated that we should look to countries other than Saudi Arabia to fill our oil needs. "There are other nations we can look at in terms of access to oil," he said on a CBC interview.

Why should Canada look to “other nations” when we have the resources right here at home?

Monday Noon - 4pm

By supporting Canadian resource development, we can secure our own supply, while avoiding further entanglement with regimes whose abuses we wish to condemn. Canada would be able to stand strong against Saudi belligerence, showing our resolve by making them put their oil profits on the line if they want to treat Canada’s values with such disrespect. We could give ourselves the greatest leverage possible: the ability to walk away from the table.

With our complicated, volatile world facing increasing threats from autocratic regimes, greater self-sufficiency in our energy supply is crucial.

That’s why Canada’s Conservatives will always support the development of our natural resources, and the projects like Energy East that ensure all Canadians can benefit from the gifts nature has given us.

Delisle Taekwon-Do Begins in September

elisle Taekwon-Do club meets on Tuesday and Friday evenings at the Delisle Composite School from September until June each year. Last year they had 35 members.

There are two groups of students within the club: Taekwon-Do Kids class is composed of 3-5 year olds. They have their class on Friday evenings from 6:00-6:45 and they only have one class per week.

Color Belt class is for anyone over the age of six, including adults and is for any level of fitness. You are encouraged to only do what you can without hurting yourself. This class runs on Tuesday evenings from 6:00 until 7:00pm and on Friday evenings from 6:45 until 7:45pm. Occasionally the class runs later for the higher color belts, to give them extra practice time with the instructors.

Testing is done two to three times a year, putting your skills and knowledge to the test for your next belt.

A one-time registration fee is of $20 plus an insurance fee of $20.00/year.

The Taekwon-Do Kids class fees are $20.00/month. Total fees for a year of Taekwon-Do Kids are $240 for a new member and $230 for a returning member.

The Color Belt class has the same registration fee and insurance fees, as above. The Color Belt class fees are $30.00/month, making the total fees for a new member $340.00 and a returning member $330.00.

There can be additional costs if you would like to purchase a Dobok, go to tournaments, purchase a manual (which has the information that you will need for testing) and testing fees.

New registrations begin on September 6th at the community registration night at Delisle school from 5pm-8pm and continue until March, as long as classes are not at their maximum level.

Classes start on Tuesday, September 11, 2018 at 6:00pm for the Color Belt class and the TaekwonDo Kids class on Friday, September 14, 2018 at 6:00pm.

Taekwon-Do is an approved sport for Kids Sport, if you require any funding. If you would like to see what the club is about, drop by the Delisle school gym on any class night.

AGRICULTURE REPORTS

AWC and Sask Wheat Announce $1.6 million in Research Funding (Calgary, Alberta) August 23, 2018 – The Alberta Wheat Commission (AWC) and Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission (Sask Wheat) are pleased to announce combined funding of more than $1.6 million over three years in innovative wheat research aimed at improving wheat production and outcomes for farmers.

The commissions are funding this research through the Ag Funding Consortium (AFC), a partnership of 13 organizations established to create a one-window approach for agricultural research and development funding in Alberta.

Some of the highlights of these projects include stripe rust surveillance to improve resistance in regional wheat varieties, developing a reliable method of gene editing in wheat that could simplify the breeding process, and improving nitrogen (N) use efficiency in Canadian wheat, among sev-

eral other cutting-edge topics.

“Investment in wheat research remains our highest priority,” said Kevin Bender, AWC Chair.

“Putting check-off dollars into innovation helps ensure farmers continue to have access to the best methods and results possible, ultimately resulting in better returns.”

“These projects have the potential to bring major benefits to farmers across Western Canada,” said Sask Wheat Chair Laura Reiter. “We’re proud to partner with the Alberta Wheat Commission to invest on behalf of farmers in projects which will lead to improved wheat varieties and agronomic practices.”

A full listing of the projects being funded is in the backgrounder below.

AWC and Sask Wheat look forward to providing project summaries and updates as they become available.

with a strong pungent sage odour. It has a shrub-like appearance, with plants ranging from 0.7 - 1.2 meters (two four ft.).

Small fine hairs cover the entire plant to produce its silvery-grey colour. The lower leaves are alternate, long-stalked and deeply lobed; the upper ones are neither stalked nor lobed and are lanceshaped. The entire plant is very aromatic, with an unmistakable sage-like scent. Because its pollen is wind borne, absinth, like the other Artemisia species, can cause hay fever.

Absinthe A weed that continues to increase those working close to absinth infested areas.

A single plant may produce as many as 50,000 seeds in a growing season and these seeds may be viable for up to four years.

Where can it be found?

Absinth is found in dry soils, overgrazed pastures and rangelands, waste places, ditches, ravines, borrow pits, gravel piles and fence lines. It is most noticeable on fence lines and roadsides. Absinth is found throughout Canada, but it is most abundant on the Prairies.

Control Absinth does not tolerate frequent disturbance, and is therefore rarely a prob-

lem in annual crops.

Mowing prior to the plant setting seed helps control its spread. Seed production is only reduced as the plant then sends out horizontal stems that will also set seed.

Hand weeding, though labour intensive, works effectively to control smaller areas. It is especially important to dig out all the roots if possible. By not overgrazing, forages and pastures remain healthy and less subject to invasion. There are a limited number of registered chemicals for control of Absinthe, and it may take more than one application to effectively control this weed.

WGRF Commits $675,000 to Organic Science Cluster

he Organic Science Cluster III (OSCIII) was announced earlier today by the Honourable Laurence MacAulay, Minister of Agriculture and AgriFood Canada.

ities included in the cluster focused on everything from organic soybean production, breeding of winter cereals, diversified cropping strategies to improve sustainability, innovative weed management tools and soil health.

The OCSIII cluster is being led by the Organic Federation of Canada (OFC) in collaboration with the Organic Agriculture Centre of Canada (OACC) at Dalhousie University announced.

OSC III will provide funding for 28 research activities. Work will be done by 60 researchers at 15 AAFC research centres, and 14 universities and research institutions across Canada.

“I would like to congratulate Agriculture and AgriFood Canada and the Organic Sector on developing such a collaborative and successful cluster application,” said Garth Patterson, WGRF Executive Director. “This cluster builds on the success of the Organic Science Cluster II of which WGRF was also contributing partner.”

WGRF is investing $675,000 towards 9 activ-

WGRF is committed to collaboration on agricul-

tural research funding at both the federal and provincial levels to leverage producer investments. WGRF targets funding to multi-crop research, with emphasis on whole farm sustainability, resiliency and efficiency of crop production systems.

“Canadian farmers face agronomic challenges that cut across multiple crops and geographies,” says Terry Young, WGRF Board Chair. “Issues like crop rotation, pest monitoring and management, nutrient management, crop adaptation to climate change and soil health impact all growers. The research in this cluster can help provide benefits to all producers.”

majority of insurance companies including SGI CANADA and Wawanesa Mutual now utilize your personal credit score as one of the factors to calculate insurance rates. This means in order to obtain the most competitive rates you need to authorize or provide consent to insurance scoring by your provider.

In particular, you may need to confirm your full legal name (remember your insurance policy is a legal contract and therefore must indicate your full legal name including middle initials as necessary!), your date of birth and a Canada Post approved mailing address. It is ultimately your choice to provide access to your credit based insurance score. Credit scores are only used to offer a discount on your policy. The discount could be substantial so it is important that you make a decision in order to obtain the best possible rate. Note your rates will never increase due to an unfavourable credit score or refusal to provide access to your credit score.

A person’s credit score has proven to be a strong indicator of the risk that a claim will be filed against that policy. Credit-based insurance scoring is now a common underwriting tool used throughout the industry. Credit-based insurance scores are not used in the same way as traditional credit scores.

While traditional credit scores are used to predict the likelihood that a consumer will default on a loan, credit-based insurance scores are used specifically for insurance purposes to predict the likelihood that an individual will file an insurance claim.

Insurance scoring is just one of several factors that are used to calculate home insurance premiums.

Other rating factors include the age and size of your home, materials used to build your home such as wood frame, estimated cost of reconstruction, location of your home, your individual claims history, the crime rate in your neighbourhood, value of your personal belongings, proximity to a fire station and fire hydrant, whether your home is in a

neighbourhood prone to sewer back up or water damage, the coverage and deductible that you choose and any applicable discounts such as monitored security systems.

by a professional. A buyer will be asking for this to be done during a home inspection, so it’s best to discover any problems early on.

2) Patch any brown areas of grass. After a whole summer of lawn care, don’t let things slip now!

13) Clean out the fireplace. If you have a fireplace, chances are pretty good that you haven’t used it in a long time, so it’s a good idea to make sure it’s clean and free from cobwebs.

3) Mulch your garden beds. This will provide an added layer of protection for your plants as winter creeps in.

4) If your summer flowers are fading or wilting after a long season, create a welcoming experience by replacing them with fresh mums and other fall friendly colorful flowers.

5) Draw attention to your front entry, by adding a fall wreath to your door.

6) Pressure wash the exterior of your home – including the windows. As the leaves fall from the trees, your home will become more exposed to the scrutinizing eyes of potential buyers, so make sure it’s appealing from the curb.

7) Clean out the gutters and downspouts keeping them clear of debris; this sends a subtle but powerful message to home buyers that you have been invested in taking good care of this property.

8) Provide adequate outdoor lighting. It won’t be long and the days will be considerably shorter, which means buyers will need a well-lit path to your front door.

14) Clean and/or store your seasonal furniture. It’s always nice to give your outdoor furniture some TLC after it’s provided hours of entertainment over the summer months.

15) Service your underground irrigation system. In certain climates it’s necessary to clear the water lines so that water will not freeze and burst the pipes during the winter months. If you live in such a climate, now is the time to begin thinking about taking care of this issue.

Make sure your real estate listing will stand apart from the competition, get a jump start on your fall home maintenance.

9) Add weather stripping to doors and windows if needed; the time to address a cold draft or air leak is before the bitter cold sets in.

10) Storm doors and windows; if you plan to install these seasonal items make sure they are in good working condition. If they are in need of repair or should be replaced, now is the time to take that step.

11) Walk around the exterior of your home paying close attention to areas that may need to be caulked (places like windows, doors, joints, corners or anywhere something protrudes from the wall/roof). Caulking is best done before the temperatures get too cool.

12) Check your HVAC system. Make sure your furnace has a new filter and have the system checked out

ell, if you can believe it summer is already half over or on the flip side, summer has only half started.

Either way we have enjoyed a warm, sunny and somewhat smoky August. We do hope Mother Nature brings some much needed rain to green up the landscape and assist us with lifting the fire ban.

The PLCSA Annual July 1st pancake breakfast at the Pike Lake Provincial Park was well attended.

Thank you to the numerous volunteers who gave their time and services to make the event a success. A special thank you to Dian Thon and my wife Lyndsay for being the coordinators of the event. To our setup and take down crews, thank you.

This summer we also tried a Texas Hold'em event on July 7th. There was a moderate player turnout and for all those who volunteered, thank you. Our group had a couple of hiccups which will be rectified before the November Texas Hold'em including some training work for our volunteers from the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA). We want to ensure the events we run follow proper protocols and procedures. We look forward to relaunching our events this fall.

As a Volunteer Organization, I would like to thank Judith Walters and Simone O'Neil for their service to the PLCSA and wish them well as they step away from the board. Currently, our Board consists of five members (Brad, Chantelle, Logan, Netta and myself).

As our numbers are low, we want to encourage members of the community to consider stepping up and becoming an active board member. For those interested, we meet once a month (except July) for a meeting, and we have activities such as Texas Hold'ems, Ladies Sparkle & Dine, Pancake Break-
