Ted and Helen Hughes paid a visit to Saskatoon last week. (Photo by Megan Cantwell)

Ted Hughes

Long-time lawyer, judge subject of new book

T

ed Hughes was a Prairie boy at heart.

Until 1977, he never imagined a time when he would look elsewhere for a different working environment.

Hughes, a University of Saskatchewan graduate, had been a lawyer and then a judge in the district court of Saskatchewan since 1962, having been appointed at the age of 35. But the political winds seemed to affect some changes in 1977.

His name had surfaced as a candidate for Chief Justice of the Court of Queen’s Bench.

He hadn’t sought the role, which eventually went to someone else, but in a day of governmental influence, he was somewhat troubled by

the working environment when surrounded by Liberal appointees.

“It was a tough time to think about a change,” said Hughes while visiting Saskatoon last week, “because Helen had just won her Saskatoon council seat by a landslide and our son Brian was going into Grade 12. But when I received an offer to work in the public service in British Columbia, it came with opportunities that turned out to be tremendous.”

His story is being told again in The Mighty Hughes, From Prairie Lawyer to Western Canada’s Moral Compass, a well-detailed and carefully documented book about judgments in notable court cases, challenging politicians

NED POWERS People

to live up to the integrity of their positions, heading up many investigations and championing the rights of the Canada’s First Nations people.

Hughes has been called “a scrupulously fair arbiter for all tough political cases,” hailed for possessing the “wisdom of a Solomon” and described as “the most respected public servant British Columbia has ever had.”

Now 90, Hughes and his wife, Helen, were in Saskatoon last week, back where their family grew up, where he built the blocks for a successful career and where they are still surrounded by friends. The Saskatoon jumpingoff point for the book was a natural since the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan was among those who gave general financial support to the project.

In his role as a judge, Hughes said in the book that “on the criminal side, you are dealing with an individual’s life. You are sitting there with the power to take away the freedom of your fellow man or woman. That is a very, very onerous responsibility.

“You’ve also got to look at a society that has been injured by what he or she has done. On the guilt issue, we do have the standard of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt being required. When you make a decision of sentencing, you make your decision and I have never second-guessed myself.”

Hughes certainly ruled with a firm hand in the 1976 case of David William Threinen, who murdered four children. In the end, Hughes didn’t have to rule on guilt.

Threinen pled guilty to four counts of non-capital murder.

Hughes gave Threinen four life sentences which meant he would never be eligible for parole.

Today, he still says it was a blessing that the families never had to hear the sordid details of the murders.

“I just felt that someone who killed four kids in our town should never, ever have his freedom again, it was so heinous a crime.”

Hughes was also the judge in 1980 when a divorce settlement had to be reached between Colin Thatcher, the powerful politician, and his wife, JoAnn Wilson. Hughes awarded Wilson half of the matrimonial assets, about $820,000, which infuriated the Thatcher family.

“I was told an agreement was reached later where Wilson would get $500,000, in four payments of $125,000 each. She only ever received one payment.”

Wilson was found murdered in the garage of her Regina home in January 1983, a murder for which Thatcher was found guilty and sent to prison.

Upon going to British Columbia, Hughes gained considerable stature as a conflict-of-interest commissioner.

In 1991, he became a national figure as the man who brought down William Vander Zalm, by finding that the premier used public office for personal gain in the sale of some choice property. Vander Zalm was forced to resign.

themselves as being above such trivial conflict concerns. And that the costs associated with contracts were never an issue because, at that time, boards still had access to the tax base.

There was also the issue of bringing scuttlebutt to the table since these retired employees still maintained contact with their former colleagues and picked up tidbits from their spouses who were still working in the system. There were times when I felt we were developing policy and budget based on unsubstantiated school gossip rather than solely in the interest of the students and the public.

But that was then and this is now.

I have a great deal of respect for Diane Boyko, chair of the Catholic division, and have a hard time disagreeing with her hypothesis that it is the electorate who should decide who sits at the board table. However, the problem with her premise is that the public gets little or no information about school board candidates prior to voting, that name recognition plays a role at the polls, and there is very little news coverage these days about school boards’ activities.

And it is hard to disagree with her cohort in Regina, Donna Ziegler, who stated that although she understood there may be a disgruntled employee seeking election, there are also exceptional employees working in the sector. But it only takes one disgruntled former employee to cause chaos at a board table.

Katherine Gagne, chair of the Regina public board, was tepid in her response to this regulation, saying that a cooling down period may prevent candidates from becoming single-issue trustees or to advance agendas too close to them, but tempered her comment by voicing support for the democratic process.

Ray Morrison, chair of the Saskatoon public board, weighed in with a “time will tell” and his willingness to work with government for a resolution to any barrier that

may occur resulting from the regulation.

Larry Pavloff, chair of the Prairie Spirit division, believes the regulation is discriminatory because no such cooling-off period exists for municipal or provincial employees. Maybe it should.

A decade ago, I would have whole-heartedly endorsed this regulation. Where am I today? In limbo. The regulation doesn’t prohibit retired employees from seeking a position on a board, but it does delay their ambitions for two years.

Given that the civic elections occur every four years, how many wannabe trustees are affected? But that is not the issue. The issue is a restriction on running for public office. I’d like to believe that the impetus behind the restriction is to enhance positive operations of any division, with the goal being the best interests of students and their families rather than the opportunities of a future politician.

The job of a trustee is to civilly probe what administration is recommending, but not to micro-manage, and to ensure that what is being suggested is in the best interests of students and their families. It is to carefully manage the spending of tax dollars. It is to ensure that the public and the rank and file employees of the division are treated with dignity, respect and fairness.

There will always be disagreements at a school board table as to what is the best practice, but what trustees will agree on is that the board table is not a place to bring your personal grievances. I would say that some retired employees can do this and others cannot. Regrettably, it only takes one bad apple to spoil the barrel.

Some of my former board colleagues may vehemently disagree with my stated experiences, but these are my memories.

Fortunately, I met and worked with many stellar people during my board tenure and I have more good memories than bad.

The teach***** The City of Saskatoon is running a er was reportedly “horrified” to learn of campaign currently requesting city resithe sheet’s content when a news reporter

TAMMY ROBERT

called to ask about it after a student’s family member posted pictures online.

The school division described the Grade 3 teacher in question as a “good employee” who made a “serious mistake” and the division will make sure nothing like this happens again. They couldn’t figure out why the worksheet, which is more than 20 years old and has since been purged and destroyed, was even in the school in the first place.

What I do with my spare bedroom is my concern, and no bylaw is ever going to change that.

I think it might be a bit older than 20 years (though just a bit) because I am sure I remember that worksheet from my own elementary school days here in Saskatoon.

You likely remember these worksheets as well — the kind that the teacher slapped on your desk at 2:45 on the afternoon before the long weekend just to shut you up and keep you remotely stationary as everyone, including him or her, was aching to just get the hell out of there.

To this day I can remember this specific worksheet because of its bizarre, dopey illustrations, including two cartoon indigenous people in cartoonish traditional dress (for example, he’s got a band

around his head with a feather in it) supposedly preparing some kind of Thanksgiving meal, under a flag that said “Pizza” on it, with a picture of a pizza slice. Why pizza? Who knows? It made no sense and I remember thinking that as I stared at the stupid sheet.

Sadly, what I also remember is not batting an eyelash at the incorrect and inappropriate depiction of indigenous people and the outright falsehoods the sheet was promoting about their involvement with the Thanksgiving holiday.

That was totally normal, as my entire elementary education around indigenous people portrayed them as cartoons — warriors, maidens, little babies wrapped up in cocoons — from days gone by when they supposedly welcomed settlers and embraced their civilized ways.

It wasn’t until I was in university, which is not that long ago (or it doesn’t feel that way), that I first heard the words “residential school,” or that it dawned on me that my own ancestors had destroyed the way of life so romanticized in the history and social studies classes of my youth.

The re-emergence of this worksheet, while regrettable, gives us an opportunity to gauge how far we’ve come in educating our kids about the realities of colonization and our provincial and national history — because we have.

It also shows us that we have a long way to go until we have completely and totally purged the educational demons still haunting the corners of our schools.

(Continued from page 3) ughes can look back today and say that when he became conflictof-interest commissioner in B.C., only two provinces had them. Every province and territory now has a commissioner and some municipalities, including Toronto, Winnipeg and Edmonton, all have them.

One of the ultimate tributes to the work of Hughes came from Ron Barclay, the Saskatchewan commissioner, who said in the book “He was a role model for all of us. He’s in a different league.”

The dedication of Hughes was such that as he aged, the workloads became harder.

At the age of 76 in 2003, he agreed to lead the Alternative Dispute Resolution process for residential school survivors.

He jumped in at the centre of one of Canada’s most shameful chapters. Residential schools were, and are, considered to be instruments of an official policy of assimilation and cultural eradication.

Hughes spent five years on the job, commuting from Victoria to Regina. Irene Fraser, Dan Shapiro and Dan Ish, all from Saskatoon, became key players on the team. Their work was the beginning of what would become the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement, signed in 2006.

And then along came The Legacy of AS101607 Aaron

Phoenix Sinclair: Achieving the Best for All Our Children, a $14-million inquiry launched in 2011 by the Manitoba government which called Hughes when he was 83 years old.

Phoenix Sinclair was five years old when she was beaten to death. Hughes found the child died at the hands of adults who should not have been left in a position to do her harm.

He said the facts added up to being a significant national embarrassment. He called on governments to give aboriginal people an equal chance to participate and succeed in mainstream society. He wanted a sensible and achievable solution to conditions caused by widespread, large-scale poverty, lack of educational opportunities and a need to take hold of addiction problems.

“Attitudes are changing,” Hughes said the other day, “and there is a great desire to reverse the colonization ideas but there is still a huge task ahead, a task which we want people to know hasn’t been abandoned.”

Hughes never thought he would be the subject of the book, which has been a three-year project principally by McInnes.

Hughes seldom changed anything in the copy. Which, in effect, makes it a collection of tales that earned him the title of Western Canada’s moral compass.

‘Most beautiful art gallery’ in Canada set to open

he countdown is on, and the anticipation is rising.

After facing numerous construction delays, shifting timelines and increasing project costs, Remai Modern is now just days away from welcoming visitors.

Canada’s new museum of modern and contemporary art — which overlooks the picturesque South Saskatchewan River — will officially open in downtown Saskatoon on Oct. 21 at a ceremony set for 8:30 a.m.

Thanks to sponsorship from KPMG and Rawlco Radio, admission will be free from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Oct. 21 and Oct. 22 for the museum’s inaugural exhibition, Field Guide (tickets are available online at www. remaimodern.org).

“One of the major things that will give me such joy is to be able to walk out into the gallery to see people enjoying the building and enjoying the exhibitions,” Gregory Burke, Remai Modern’s executive director and CEO, said in a recent interview.

“It’s a very beautiful building. It’s the most beautiful art gallery in Canada, without a doubt, in my view — and it’s helped, obviously, by the location here at River Landing,” he said.

Curated by Burke and Remai Modern’s chief curator, Sandra Guimarães, Field Guide will feature projects, commissions and immersive installations by nearly 80 Canadian and international artists. Selections from Remai Modern’s permanent collection of about 8,000 works, most of which were inherited from the museum’s

REMAI MODERN’S PRINCIPLES

Remai Modern describes itself a museum that is: • Defined by artists, and supports their work and vision to the fullest extent.

• Committed to interrogating the idea of “modern” from multiple cultural, historical and contemporary positions.

• Respectful of Canada’s Indigenous communities and aims to be a leading centre for contemporary Indigenous art and discourse.

• A leader in developing new models for sharing knowledge and engaging diverse communities.

• A platform for rethinking the role of the 21st-century art museum.

• A museum that invites everyone to actively participate in the artistic process.

predecessor, the Mendel Art Gallery, will also be on display. As well, the opening exhibition will include the first showing of Remai Modern’s collection of Picasso linocut prints, the largest collection in the world.

Burke noted that it was impossible to bring in a loaned exhibition from a leading international art museum because of the uncertainty surrounding when Remai Modern would open.

“That sort of created limitations, if you like,” he said.

However, the uncertainty also created opportunities, he acknowledged, “since we had to therefore draw on our collection and borrow works that would be able to be loaned under less stringent conditions — so borrowing works directly from artists, commissioning artists to do works and borrowing works from private lenders and from the artists’ professional galleries.”

Ultimately, with its first exhibition, Remai Modern wanted to “try and indicate something about our philosophy and vision

going forward and give a bit of a roadmap to what we might be doing in the future,” said Burke.

“The Field Guide, for example, brings together lots of work from the collection, but also brings together lots of different artists from around the world — and many different regions of the world, including Morocco, Palestine, China, India, South America. And it’s really very much intergenerational — works dating back to the beginning of the 20th century right to the current environment. So it’s a very diverse exhibition.”

The vision of Remai Modern’s curatorial team focuses on creating a museum of national and international significance, while still having strong local connections.

As a result, works by Saskatchewan artists will be included in Field Guide, including a multi-media installation by Kara Uzelman and work by Eli Bornstein, who is known for his three-dimensional structurist reliefs.

Burke said “a model” for the Remai AS101624 Aaron Modern opening was the opening of the

“When I see the catalogue to that exhibition . . . I can’t believe that an exhibition of that quality was being shown here in Canada in 1964 — let alone in Saskatoon, which probably had half the population then than it does now,” he said.

“It was basically Fred Mendel’s collection, and he had in his collection some of the greatest European artists of the 20th century. Plus, he had collected the great pioneer modernist artists — Canadian modernist artists — such as Lawren Harris.”

The roots of Remai Modern go back to 2011, when philanthropist and (Continued on page 9)

(Continued from page 8) businessperson Ellen Remai donated $30 million to the project; Saskatoon’s city council subsequently voted to name the museum in her honour. The following year, the Frank and Ellen Remai Foundation donated more than 400 linocuts by renowned modern artist Pablo Picasso. Philanthropist and art specialist Frederick Mulder complemented that donation in 2014, when he donated an additional linocut as well as 23 Picasso ceramic pieces.

Remai Modern has received support from the civic, provincial and federal governments, as well as from private fundraising. The City of Saskatoon has contributed about 36 per cent of the total cost of the new gallery, while private donors have covered about 30 per cent of the construction costs. Remai Modern is connected to Persephone Theatre at River Landing and features 130,000 square feet of space on four levels, including 11 gallery spaces and a 150-seat theatre.

The lead contractor, EllisDon, began construction of the facility in 2013.

Canadian architects KPMB were behind the award-winning modernist design of the building, which includes a 4,090-squarefoot atrium, a 1,171-square-foot art and design store and a 2,686-square foot restaurant and kitchen on the ground floor.

The second floor features five permanent collection galleries comprising more than 6,000 square feet, a 2,165-square-foot theatre and a 5,205-square-foot river view room and adjoining foyer for special events, such as weddings and conferences.

Gallery space — including the 4,613-square-foot Feature Gallery and the 7,469-square-foot Marquee Gallery — can be found on the third floor. The fourth floor AS101622 Aaron has conference and boardroom space, a

library, administration offices and a rooftop terrace.

“I think the response is just going to be jaw-dropping for a lot of people to see what an amazing building this is,” Burke said.

However, Burke believes “there will be a mixed reception” from the public to the art on display.

“There always is. Art wouldn’t be doing its job if it didn’t provoke discussion,” he said.

Burke described the opening of Remai Modern as “hugely significant.” The “lion’s share of the credit” for Remai Modern should be directed to Ellen Remai, he said.

“She is probably the most extraordinary arts donor in Canada’s history, at this point, I would say.”

The total price tag for Remai Modern is around $85 million, said Burke, who also noted the facility would likely cost about $200 million if it was built in Toronto or New York. Many of Burke’s national peers and colleagues are amazed that such a high-quality building could be built for $85 million, he said.

“And then, when you consider the city taxpayers only paid $30 million for it, it makes it even more extraordinary,” he added.

During the opening weekend, New Yorkbased artist and choreographer Maria Hassabi will present a live installation that will blend dance and visual art. Hassabi and four other artists will perform in the museum’s public spaces from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Oct. 21 and 22.

There will also be an opening night party at 8 p.m. on Oct. 21 that will offer after-hours access to the exhibitions, live programs, food and beverages. Norwegian vocalist Stine Janvin will headline the ticketed party, which is now sold out.

World premiere of funny, affecting play hits Persephone Shannon Boklaschuk Saskatoon Express ersephone Theatre’s latest offering is being billed as a “humour-tinged drama about family and mental wellness.”

The play, Quick Bright Things by Christopher Cook, will have its world premiere when it runs at Remai Arts Centre this month. Persephone Theatre’s artistic director, Del Surjik, is directing the show and is excited to bring it to Saskatoon audiences.

“It’s a world premiere. So one of the things that’s inherently exciting about that, regardless of the particulars of this show, is that you come in (as) the audience (and) you haven’t read the novel; you haven’t seen the movie. You do not know what’s going to happen next,” said Surjik.

“It’s a very exciting sort of situation.

For me, it’s the preferred situation.”

Quick Bright Things centres on family members’ responses when a teenage boy, Gerome, is diagnosed with schizophrenia. While all of the characters have “hearts that are huge” and are coming from “a helpful place,” they don’t really know how to help him, said Surjik.

“It’s hilariously funny at times, but you still deal with the actual, authentic issues at hand. So it’s a really rich sweetand-sour flavour. You laugh your butt off and then you’re really moved, and then you laugh so you’re holding your sides seconds later.”

Surjik said he’s wanted to present Quick Bright Things for a while and the theatre has been working with the

P

playwright on different drafts of the script. There is universality to the show, he said.

“It touches everyone — any family dealing with a medical diagnosis will relate to this. It doesn’t matter the specifics of what it is for the young man in the play.”

Another thing Surjik is enthusiastic about is the show’s casting. He is working with a cast of Saskatchewan actors with varying levels of experience — including two “super-talented” youths playing the 13-year-old and 17-year-old characters.

“These are major roles,” said Surjik.

“I don’t go out of my way to choose plays that have children in them, but we do end up having a regular presence in the seasons. These are big roles, and I’ve got great casting. These kids are really top-notch. It’s very exciting to work with them.”

Samuel DeGirolamo, who appeared in Persephone’s production of A Christmas Carol last year, plays the 13-year-old character, Michael. Jordan Harvey plays the 17-year-old character, Gerome, who is living with schizophrenia. Surjik said he saw Harvey in an audition for other purposes and was so impressed that he read Harvey for the part in Quick Bright Things. The rest, as they say, is history.

“He just happens to be the same age, roughly, as the character he’s playing,” Surjik said.

The entire cast of Quick Bright Things is comprised of actors that Surjik has never directed previously. Some of them are well-known in the commu-

“It’s always exciting for me when I’ve got a cast that I haven’t worked with yet that I’ve chosen and I think we’re going to have chemistry,” said Surjik.

“It’s proving that we do, actually, in the rehearsal hall, so that’s all fun.”

Surjik predicts audiences will love the show and will feel like they know the

“The play is very authentic. It’s very well-written.”

Dear Reena, Is it possible to make my own real vanilla for baking in contrast to imitation vanilla extract? — Deepak Dear Deepak, I really enjoy using real vanilla as opposed to vanilla extract. Let’s begin with proper storage: vanilla doesn’t typically “go bad,” but if stored in a warm place it will deteriorate and lose flavour. Refrigeration is not recommended, but if it’s a choice between a hot storage area and refrigerator, opt for the fridge. Pure vanilla extract is made by “percolating” chopped vanilla beans with consumable alcohol and water. Combine 1 vanilla bean in a container of vodka. Keep in mind you will require patience, because the mixture needs to sit for about eight weeks to reach full strength.

Smart Tip from Lily: The best way to remove tape and grease residue from items is to put paint thinner on a cloth and rub till it’s gone. It won’t harm the item.

Homemade Chocolate Pudding Makes four Delicious Servings In a double boiler stir together a half cup sugar, 3 tbsps. unsweetened cocoa powder, one-quarter cup cornstarch and a pinch of salt.

HOW DO I GET HIM TO STOP TALKING ABOUT HER?

Dear Lianne I’ve met a wonderful man. He is attentive, extremely successful and quite likes me. He will spoil me with travel, fine dining and shopping excursions. The problem is he goes on tangents talking about his ex-wife. They are going through nasty legal stuff and I’m sure it is difficult

for him to divide his assets but it is what it is. I have suffered through hours and hours of him talking about her. Sometimes he is angry with her and other times he is very protective of her.

I need to know where I stand with all of this. What is your opinion?

Laura.

Dear Laura, It is very clear to me that this fellow is not ready for a relationship. You seem mesmerized by him and the lifestyle he seems to be able to offer you but he does not have his ducks in a row yet.

Certainly, you are alleviating some of his loneliness but it sure sounds to me that you unfortu-

nately are the rebound girl. You have two choices. The first being, walk away from this man and the second accept the situation for what it is and continue to be his sounding board. You can discuss the fact that you don’t feel he is ready and how him constantly talking about his ex affects your relationship with him.

Which would make Kevin Glenn what? Err America?

• Dustin Byfuglien’s injury was questioned after he posted a photo of a large sturgeon he’d just caught. I’m not a fan of Big Buff — even when he is not playing he’s hooking.

• Joining Kate Upton in SI’s swimsuit edition are runway stars Hannah Ferguson, Ashley Graham, Bo Krsmanovic and Danielle Herrington. Possible subtitle: All the Right Struts.

• What do you get if you cross 76ers legend Julius Irving with Carolina Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers? Dr. Peppers.

• One of Jaromir Jagr’s Calgary teammates is Matthew Tkachuk, whose father Keith was drafted the same year as Jagr, in 1990. In hockey years, that’s 27 teeth ago.

• Bad news for ex-Lakers coach Byron

Scott, his home was broken into. A small consolation — it was a fast break.

• The LFL, formerly the Lingerie Football League, posted a video saying they “stand in salute of our flag.” I wonder how many men have stood in salute of lingerie football?

• An Edmonton divorce judge ordered a couple to share Oilers tickets by each choosing games. My divorce was less friendly: my wife shared the furniture by sawing it all in half.

• How about the Golden Knights, the first NHL expansion team to start 3-0. Then again, where better than Vegas to be on a roll?

• Did you know the dinosaur and fossil centre in Alberta is called Currie Museum?

Please don’t tell them where to find me.

• Metro News reports there are markets in London selling fake Viagra. We’ll have more on that coming up later.

• In the history of the Expos-Nationals franchise, 1981 is remembered as Blue Monday. So what do we call this year’s failed relief appearance by a starter? Scherzer Thursday?

Riders fans will watch their team play at any time day or night, but there was absolutely no consideration for the thousands of them that live outside of Regina and drive for two or three or four or more hours to attend games.

No one should be on the highway at 2 or 3 in the morning after a football game.

• From Janice Hough: “There are reports that the Russians used Pokemon Go to influence 2016 elections. Investigators became suspicious when they saw Pokemon Nyet Go.” • Has Game 5 between the Cubs-Nationals ended yet?

• Torben Rolfsen, on Ezekiel Elliott’s six-game suspension being upheld: “The Cowboys will now go up to the next level of appeal: Roger Goodell’s wife.”

• TC Chong, on Odell Beckham Jr. being fined for pretending to urinate like a dog during a TD celebration: “The following week he injured his paw and is now out for the season. ‘Karma,’ said Michael Vick.”

• From the Twitter account of one Carl Higbie: “There are two types of countries — those that are good at soccer and those that have been to the moon.”

• Fox paid $200 million for the television rights for the 2018 World Cup. Why does that make me happy?

• From Hough: “If someone told Donald Trump the air quality in Northern California was so bad you can’t golf, maybe he’d be more concerned.”

The Maserati name has been on fine vehicles since the 1920s. control a fairly normal upper and lower wishbone front suspension and a five-link rear system. These shocks can be adjusted electronically and infinitely for jounce and rebound (the technical names for what a shock does). The idea for such a shock isn’t new, but Maserati has elevated the game considerably with both the internal shock design and the electronic controls.

Any vehicle that has over 400 horsepower had best have some pretty decent stopping power. In this category the Levante S comes with six-piston, mon-block Brembo calipers that clamp to 380 mm rotors. At the rear are another set of somewhat smaller Brembo calipers and rotors.

Just in case you were wondering, these brakes can haul you down from 100 kph in 39.4 metres. On the other end, the 0 to 100 kilometres can be done in 5.1 seconds. By the way, Brembo is the same company that provides braking systems to companies like Ferrari.

What good is a luxury, performance SUV if it isn’t luxurious? I can’t think of anything else to add to this vehicle. Power seats with memory, heated seats, a killer sound system,

an HVAC system that actually moved plenty of air around the zones it was supposed to and the seats are leather and arm chair comfortable, while providing the correct amount of support for both off-road work and long distance touring. Instrumentation and switch layout did take a bit of getting used to, but all you need to know is presented front and centre.

Move to the back seat and you are nearly as comfortable as those in the front seats and with about as much leg room as well.

To maximize cargo space, the rear seat folds down in this five seater SUV. With the seats up, there is still room for a couple sets of golf clubs or a couple hockey bags, but folding the seats down does make life a bit easier for hockey sticks.

At Christmas last year, I put the Levante on my wish list and said I thought there would be a dealer here soon. So far I’ve gotten that part right. Now, either Mr. Kelly has to take pity and get me a 50 per cent discount and 0 per cent financing or I have to win a lottery to acquire a Levante S. I’m pretty sure winning the lottery will be easier. If you drive one, you will understand.
