cious identities and, equally important, likes to hear and retell the stories of innovation by past residents.

“Too often, people don’t think Saskatoon has buildings which are treasures and worth saving. That thought is different from where I’d grown up in England, where they believed in preserving identities. We, as a heritage society, say we need to recognize the

value of heritage protection and we want those properties to be recognized to the highest level of planning policies by the city,” said Sarjeant.

“We recognize that intensification is a growing pattern in cities, like Saskatoon, but we also believe in preservation. We think there must be a way that intensification and preservation can work together as our community grows. We don’t want to lose the city’s rich identity. We need to care for our history and environment.

“So many buildings have been demolished, so many more could be demolished, and that’s why we fight so hard to get some of them designated as historic sites.”

As one who has gone before Saskatoon’s Municipal Heritage Advisory Council and eventually into city council chambers, Sarjeant believes different incentives and tax measures for developers could be among the options the city must take in order to find happy solutions.

The city should be planning to have a second, larger theatre in the building and add hundreds of thousands of square feet for the convention business if we want to play in the big leagues.

Please keep the Sid Buckwold Theatre in any expansion plan. We screwed up royally when the Capitol Theatre was demolished in 1979.

That still angers me. I know I should let it go but I just can’t. It was the most beautiful indoor space in the city.

For old time’s sake and to raise my blood pressure a few points, I went back and read some of the history of the Capitol.

It opened on May 11, 1929 with Charles (Buddy) Rogers starring in Close Harmony. I wonder if it’s on Netflix.

The inside of the theatre was absolutely stunning. It had a ceiling that gave the impression of being outside. The theatre sat 1,600 people and was used for meetings, live entertainment and movies back in its heyday.

Sandy and I remember seeing Reveen there when we were a couple of silly kids. We laughed all over again when we recalled a woman pounding away on an imaginary typewriter. Sandy did a pretty good impression.

We remember one of the last movies, if not the last, we saw at the Cap. It was King Kong, starring Jessica Lange and Jeff Bridges. Not too long after King Kong died, so did the Capitol Theatre.

Dec. 1, 1979 was one of the darkest days in our city’s history.

We have a chance to get it right with the location of the new arena and the expansion of TCU Place.

Fashion statement

Design students’ creations to hit the runway Cam Hutchinson Saskatoon Express ydia Gardiner didn’t know how to operate a sewing machine a couple of years ago. Last year, she made a dress that was inspired by a teepee. It was shown at London’s Fashion Week.

Teneshia Prytula made her high school grad gown and won an award for it. She decided studying to become a veterinarian was no longer for her.

Melanie Leblanc was studying modelling, but was always more drawn to the clothes than how models showcased them.

Laura Arenas came to Saskatoon from Colombia to study fashion design. Her line reflects the bright colours of her homeland.

These four talented designers will be among 15 students from Saskatoon’s Academy of Fashion Design who will be exhibiting their creations at an April 8 fashion show at the Western Development Museum. There is a tradeshow component to the event, with the designers’ garments for sale.

While the designers talked about their work and goals in their work space at the school, Heather Brigidear, the owner and principal at the academy, sat close by, looking very much like a proud parent. She had good reason to be.

Arenas says Brigidear was like an angel in helping her family settle in Saskatoon. Arenas had previously lived in Montreal to learn French and moved back to Colombia to go to university where she graduated with social communications and journalism degrees.

She was on her computer looking for a place to study fashion and picked Saskatoon. The pictures on her inspiration board are filled with bright colours. There’s a photo of a beautiful beach in the city where she lives. What the heck is she doing here during the winter?

“Montreal is too big and Toronto is as well,” she said.

“I was searching and I found this academy and was reading the comments and everything and they were so good.”

Arenas says she has been interested in fashion since she was a little girl and saw how her mother dressed and sewed.

“Everything during my career was fashion all the time,” she said. “My last big project for my university was about fashion. I also modelled a long time ago,” she said with a laugh.

“I had my own brand in Colombia. When I graduated I started my own brand online and I sold a lot but I had someone sew everything.”

She wanted to know all aspects of the business so she and her husband and child moved to Saskatoon.

Arenas wants to have her clothing in big stores.

“I am not too much into custom fitting. I am more about having a big store and all over the world. I would love to live in New York. My husband lived in New York before and he loved it.”

Her collection is “super colourful and very Colombian, very warm, very tropical.”

Gardiner has slightly more experience than her classmates. They say she is an amazing designer.

“She is so talented. I could go on and on about Lydia,” Prytula said. Aaron AS032613

Lydia Gardiner created this stunning gown.

(Model: Tianna MCabe; Photo: Trina Kingfisher) Gardiner said when she enrolled in the program she wanted to learn to sew. She laughs when she talks about the time she left her foot on the sewing machine’s pedal a bit too long. It was pedal to the metal, she said.

“I came here with zero experience on a sewing machine.

Now I can make a whole collection. I have been in many fashion shows in Saskatoon. I tried to get to Toronto, but not yet.

“I do have a business from social media and I do have a lot of clients. I sell to the Métis president of Saskatchewan (Glen McCallum) and have connected to clients from him.

I think his closet is full of my shirts,” she said with a laugh.

Gardiner is from Ile-a-la Crosse. She does beading and shares her knowledge at places such as the Friendship Centre. She has a company named Nipii Designs.

“It means water in my language,” she said.

She has incorporated her Metis heritage into her designs. Her work is stunning.

She made the teepee dress for the fantasy section of the school’s 2017 fashion show. Off it went to London to visit the queen.

Leblanc is from St. Denis. She said she modelled, acted and danced as a child. She said the arts and creativity run in her family.

“When I was in modelling, we had to watch TV on runways and catwalks. And I never looked at the walking.

I looked straight at the clothing. I decided to quit that and Teneshia Prytula gives model Kylan Mackenzie a cool, look more into fashion design. casual look. (Photo: Rhianna Fitzer) (Continued on page 16)

Near the begin- she, is a battle, “and you have to treat it as ning of the fireside chat, she noted that she a battle.”

The notion that we should be able to do it all is “a setup, young ladies,” she said, addressing the younger women in the crowd of between 8,000 and 8,500. When we find ourselves needing help, we feel like we’re failing, but that’s just not true, said Obama.

When the Obamas lost their fabulous babysitter, she cried harder over that than over “anything Barack ever did.” (Another big laugh from the crowd). She leaned on that babysitter. She was part of her balance.

I felt her strongest message was trying to help women, and especially young women, understand that they have what it takes to do whatever they want. They are not too thin, too fat, too loud, too bossy or not smart enough. They need to take their birthright of confidence and go for it, while also fighting that balance battle.

But we have to practice. We have to work on it. In a world of “tiny cuts” we have to be resilient and strong, and take the privilege to “fail like a man.”

As FLOTUS (the First Lady’s acronym), Obama took on childhood obesity, in part by growing a White House garden that both supplied her children with healthy food but also served as a symbol to others. She supported military families and fought for better education, all with no programming budget. It does seem bizarre that FLOTUS has no budget (the issues surrounding which is well depicted Aaronof Cards) but, as inAS032606 the series House

Obama said, she does have “collaborative power.”

It must be doled out carefully; there are only so many hours, and the First Lady has zillions of other responsibilities. “It’s hard to say no if you don’t know what the yeses should be,” she said. Great, great advice for all of us.

As a side note, it didn’t sound to me like she’s planning a run for president, but who knows?

Just one thing, from my perspective. I have seen this incredible, strong woman speak many times on TV, and found myself standing and clapping and cheering in my own living room. I loved the chat, appreciated the message, but it didn’t make me leap to my feet. I wonder if Michelle Obama might consider just standing up and speaking on tours; I don’t know if it’s her decision. But I wanted to see her pounding the air with her powerful fists, maybe stomping the stage. Maybe today’s political environment needs that. Just a thought.

OK, two things. A lot of those tickets were very, very expensive. I did see women there of all beautiful colours, some in Muslim dress, young African-Canadian women just beside themselves that this hero was in town. It was fantastic. It was amazing to see such a wide sisterhood in attendance. So perhaps some tickets were affordable enough. The prices of some tix, however, made me gasp. Just another thought.

It’s the second-largest class of warship after the Halifax Class frigate.

Matthew Dalzell, commanding officer of HMCS Unicorn, said Margaret Brooke is a remarkable “Prairie Sailor” story. When he learned the warship would be named for her, he began to research her story and realized she must have joined the navy in Saskatoon.

“My dad did some digging and sure enough she joined the navy here in 1942.

We would have just had our name changed from Saskatoon Half Company of the Royal Canadian Navy Volunteer Reserve to HMCS Unicorn,” said Dalzell.

There are more “prairie sailors” than people may think, he said — “people who come from walks of life and from rural Saskatchewan. You wouldn’t think people from rural Saskatchewan would become sailors, but they do. The connection is going to be great.

“We’re working with Michele trying to cement that connection between HMCS Margaret Brooke and HMCS Unicorn and Saskatoon, because they’re all part of this story.”

what we call the commission crew or ‘plank owners,’ I mean that’s unbelievable. It’s still a little bit surreal.”

But when she went to Halifax for the keel-laying ceremony last May, part of the ship was intact.

“You lay a coin for the good luck of the ship. To touch her for the first time, it became a little more real that this is actually happening.”

HMCS Margaret Brooke will take on Arctic adventures, but since the area is ice much of the year, she will also be called on to engage in, for example, counter-narcotic missions, such as the one underway with the U.S. Coast Guard, and in the Obangame Express, a mission off the coast of Africa involved in training and humanitarian efforts. She will likely be part of other humanitarian aid missions, search and rescue and fishery patrols.

The ship measures 105 metres long and 20 metres wide — about twice the size of the Saskatoon, and significantly heavier at 6,400 tonnes, because it requires ice capabilities such as a heavier hull. It will have a crew of 65, but can “bunk” 67 plus 20 guests, such as special forces teams, sci-

would name one after a woman, and Margaret was the one they selected.”

Brooke was informed by the commander of Canadian Fleet Atlantic on her 99th birthday. She died about a year later, in 2016.

“She was obviously floored. She was humbled. Everything I’ve heard about her, everyone who knows her, said what a humble person she was. She didn’t talk about her accolades or her awards or what happened during the war,” said Tessier.

“Later that same year, I learned I would become the CO of the ship.”

Tessier is from Grand Bank, Nfld., and attended Memorial University in St. John’s.

There, as she was finishing her degree, she met people in the regular forces going through a program at the Marine Institute, now part of Memorial, who suggested she also attend. Afterward, she joined the reserves at Cabot, the equivalent of Unicorn in St. John’s, and hasn’t looked back.

“Here I am 22 years later. I’ve travelled the world, I’ve had command of a warship, and all that came from just giving it a try and seeing if I was going to like it.”

Presently, Tessier is Deputy Chief of Staff, Current Operations and Intelligence Fusion in Victoria, B.C. But she will take command of a warship for the second time when she boards the Margaret Brooke; she previously commanded the Nanaimo, a sister ship to the Saskatoon.

She remembers being completely floored when asked to serve as commander of a warship for the second time.

“To have command at sea of a ship once is not something that happens to everybody.

To have command of a sea-going ship twice is almost impossible in our navy these days.

We have folks that are getting qualified and need the experience, so it tends to be you have a command and then you move on.

“There was a part of that which was the ability to have a ship named after a female with a female commanding officer. I was a reservist for 20 of my 22 years. She was a reservist. There was that Newfoundland connection that we have; the area that (the Caribou) was sunk was off of Port aux Basques, where I lived for a brief time as a child.

CLIENT:

Joanne Paulson Saskatoon Express t the Irving Shipyards in Halifax, they are building Her Majesty’s Canadian Ship Margaret Brooke.

Not only does she represent a milestone in the Royal Canadian Navy’s history, she has a powerful Saskatchewan connection.

The warship is the first to be named for a woman; and that woman was a decorated Second World War hero from Ardath, Sask.

The Margaret Brooke warship will be part of the Arctic and Offshore Patrol Vessel (AOPV) fleet. She is second of the class; the Navy is building five and possibly six of the new ships, all named, for the first time, after prominent figures in our naval history.

The first has been completed.

Commander Michele Tessier will take command of the ship, which will be launched in summer, 2019, and delivered to the Navy in the spring of 2020. There’s a great coincidence there: Ardath is just south of Tessier, Sask.

“Margaret Brooke was a nursing sister in the Navy in World War Two,” said Tessier in an interview at HMCS Unicorn in Saskatoon. “She was a dietician by qualification.

“She was onboard the ferry SS Caribou, which was making a crossing between Sydney (N.S.) and Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, when it was torpedoed by a German U-boat.

“The vessel sunk, and a number of people perished that night. Margaret was in the water, basically clinging to an overturned lifeboat with one hand and holding on to one of her fellow nursing sisters with the other hand. She stayed that way the entire night, trying to save the life of this friend of hers. Her name was Agnes Wilkie.

“Unfortunately, Agnes did die that night, but for her actions and her heroism, Margaret was bestowed an honour: she was made a member of the Order of the British Empire,” the only Canadian woman from the Second World War to be so honoured, Tessier added.

Brooke continued on with her career in the navy and retired as a lieutenant-commander. She received a degree at the U of S before her naval career, and then went back after it to get a PhD in geology.

“She worked at the university here for a while, as well,” said Tessier. “When the navy decided they were going to name a class of ship after people, they decided they

Heritage Society wins some, loses some

H

(Continued from page 1) er late husband, William, came to Saskatoon in 1972 to join the geology department at the University of Saskatchewan and was a member of the newly-formed Saskatoon Environmental Society.

The organization, formed to act on the issue of historic urban environment, fought some battles of its own, even before the Heritage Society was born on June 10, 1976.

Two significant campaigns happened during the 1973-74 period.

“Concern grew over the rumours that CP (Canadian Pacific) Rail was considering closing its line through the centre of Saskatoon, which might have led to the possible demolition of the historic station which was built in 1907. The campaign was called Save Our Station and it became the catalyst for future campaigns. It was Ken Achs, the developer, who bought the station and adapted it for commercial use.”

Sarjeant said the first major outcry occurred when developers were proposing a Canarama project alongside the South Saskatchewan River, north on Spadina Crescent near River Heights.

“Private citizens, led by Joanna Miller, organized a petition. When a public hearing was held on Jan. 12, 1974, at city hall chambers, so many people turned out that the meeting was moved across the street to the library. The protest resulted in a land exchange between the city and the developers and that gave the city the acquisition of what is Meewasin Park.”

AS032617 Aaron was working as a reference librarIn 1976, Sarjeant

The Farnam Block was demolished in 2015. (Photo by Sandy Hutchinson) ian at the public library, “not far away from the Standard Trust building at Third Avenue and 22nd Street.

It was being demolished on the same Sunday I was at work. The area would later be developed as the SturdyStone building.”

Another of the early outcries occurred when word came out that the historic Capitol Theatre, which had been up for sale for two years, might be demolished.

The Capitol was a legendary movie house whose depth

extended from the main entrance on Second Avenue to back doors on First Avenue. Its property was being sold to Princeton Developments.

“The province became interested and offered to share the costs of a feasibility study into the building’s conversion as a performing arts venue. The offer was ignored. A petition with 9,000 names on it was presented to city council but it was dismissed.

(Continued on page 9)

/‘vilij/

noun meaning “a group of houses and associated buildings, larger than a hamlet and smaller than a town, situated in a rural area”.

The Village at Crossmount is not only a true village, it is a true aging-in-place community. Located five kilometres south of Saskatoon on Lorne Avenue (Highway 219), this 55+ community is nestled in a 400 acre prairie oasis.

At Crossmount aging-in-place means you have access to in-home health care and spacious, beautifully landscaped outdoor rehabilitation and healing spaces. Houses have monitoring systems and all maintenance on homes is taken care of for you. Snow removal, landscaping and garbage/recycling pick-up is included. Homes are on city water and Crossmount is a petfriendly and vibrant community.

Independent houses are currently available in five versatile floor plans. Ranging from our 996 sqft Sunrise through to the 1923 sqft Vista Bella our homes are designed for safe and comfortable seniors’ living. Home features include ten foot ceilings, private outdoor space, gas fireplace, quartz countertops, seven appliances, and a garage with a finished driveway. City amenities are close at hand, but you can still breathe fresh prairie air and clearly see the stars at night.

(Continued from page 8) he theatre was demolished on Dec. 1-2, 1979. Some artifacts and signage were saved and stored. That demolition served to raise the profile of our heritage movement.”

In ensuing years, demolitions were common. Lost were the Crowe block, the Ross block, Labatt’s Brewery, A.L Cole Generating Station, the Municipal Justice building, the Gathercole building and the downtown legion.

Preserved, restored or designated were buildings like Albert School, the College building at the University of Saskatchewan, Broadway Theatre, Roxy Theatre, the Trounce and Gustin houses and the superintendent’s building at Forestry Farm.

Two of the hottest topics since 2010 have been the future of Third Avenue United Church and the Farnam Block on Broadway. Third Avenue United Church has undergone two changes in ownership and has won a city heritage designation.

“It was always about identifying the elements on the exterior and the interior, from floor to the rafters, along with the organ. We even went to the provincial appeals board to get approval. It can’t be demolished and we’re fine now.”

The Farnam block, a 103-year-old landmark, was sold and subsequently demolished by new owners in 2016.

“There was a huge cultural background within the building and it served

the community well. We were promised there would be two storeys, with some of the original façade, but now it seems it will become a single-storey building.”

Sarjeant said coming to Canada in 1972 was a real eye-opener.

“After flying to Toronto in April, we took the train west and I was amazed by the wide-open spaces and often the sparsely populated areas. That was a big change coming from Leeds in England.

It was still cold in April and I had left behind fields of daffodils and trees turning green.”

Her husband, who died just before retirement eligibility in 2002 and had been active in urban environment, prompted the city to form a committee to create special listings of heritage sites, and edited the Saskatoon History Review from 1989 until his passing.

Two daughters were born in England and one in Saskatoon. Today, two still live in Saskatoon and one is in Seoul, South Korea.

Aside from year-round activities with the society, including the walking tours, the work never ends.

Just two Sundays ago, the society held its annual fundraising luncheon and the next night, held a panel discussion about intensification and urban heritage.

Jeanie Gartley, a heritage preservationist, planner and urban designer from Calgary, was the special guest for both functions.

and the number of interval repetitions.

Interval training can be casual, spur of the moment bursts of activity depending on how you’re feeling that day or if you’re working towards a more specific sports or fitness goal you can take a more sophisticated, scientific approach. You can design (or find) HIIT workouts using sprints, stair running, skipping, speed drills and agility drills.

A simple example of interval training for walking would be to add short bursts of jogging or alternate slower walking with brisk walking. If you walk outdoors, you could jog or walk faster between certain landmarks such as street lights or signs, then slow down for a short distance.

A second example that really gets your heart pumping and improves fitness includes running, rowing, or cycling. Warm up for about 15 minutes, then run, row, or cycle HARD (at 80-90 percent of your maximum heart rate) for three minutes.

Then go easy for three minutes, allowing your body to recover. Repeat these threeminute intervals of high-and low-intensity exercise three or four times. Then cool down for 10 minutes.

HIIT sessions should be sprinkled in to your exercise routine, allowing at least 24 hours of recovery between them. A great schedule would be two strength training sessions and one, maybe two HIIT sessions per week. That’s enough to see some great benefits!

Brain-healthy habits to embrace

ognitive decline is a condition that is often associated with aging, but even middle-aged people can experience memory loss or cognition issues.

The Alzheimer’s Association says that more than five million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. By 2050, that number could rise to as high as 16 million people. More than 747,000 Canadians are living with Alzheimer’s or another dementia, says the Canadian Alzheimer’s Association.

Although there is no definitive way to prevent dementia, living a long, vibrant life may be possible by encouraging some healthy habits for the brain. It is never too late or too early to begin health and lifestyle changes.

Exercise Becoming more active can improve brain volume, reduce risk for dementia and improve thinking and memory skills. The journal Neurology found that older people who vigorously exercise performed better on cognitive tests than others of the same age, placing them at the equivalent of 10 years younger. Increased blood flow that occurs with physical activity may help generate new neurons in the hippocampus, an area of the brain involved with learning and memory.

The Harvard Medical School says aerobic exercise may help improve brain tissue by improving blood flow and reducing the chances of injury to the brain from cholesterol buildup in blood vessels.

Quit smoking The Alzheimer’s Association indicates that evidence shows smoking increases the risk of cognitive decline. Smoking can impair blood flow to the brain and cause small strokes that may damage blood vessels.

Eat healthy foods Foods that are good for the heart and blood vessels Tammy also are good for the brain.

TA032605

These include fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fish-based proteins, unsaturated fats, and foods containing omega-3 fatty acids. Neurologists state that, while research on diet and cognitive function is limited, diets, such as Mediterranean and Mediterranean-DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension), may contribute to a lower risk of cognitive issues.

Consume caffeine Caffeine may help boost memory performance and brain health. A Journal of Nutrition study found people ages 70 and older who consumed more caffeine scored better on tests of mental function than those who consumed less caffeine. Caffeine may help improve attention span, cognitive function and feelings of well-being. Information from Psychology Today also indicates caffeine may help in the storage of dopamine, which can reduce feelings of depression and anxiety. In addition, compounds in cocoa and coffee beans may improve vascular health and help repair cellular damage due to high antioxidant levels.

Work the brain Engaging in mentally stimulating activities can create new brain connections and more backup circuits, states Dr. Joel Salinas, a neurologist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. Working the brain through puzzles, reading and participating in social situations can stimulate the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a molecule essential for repairing brain cells and creating connections between them.

A good way to combine these lifestyle factors is to take an exercise class with friends, mixing the social, stimulation and exercise recommendations together.

Cognitive decline can come with aging, but through healthy habits, people can reduce their risk of memory loss and dementia.

• Always face the person you’re talking to. This allows the person to lip read and use visual cues.

• Speak clearly and naturally at a moderate pace. This allows extra time for the person to process what was said.

• Don’t yell or scream. Louder does not mean better. Yelling causes you to speak abnormally, making it difficult for the person to understand you.

• Repeat and Rephrase if needed. If there’s a chance you were misunderstood, say it again.

• Use other communication techniques. Text messages, email and even writing notes are effective ways to get your message across.

Changing Your Will

A

There are used scooters for sale on buy and sell sites, what should I watch for??

There is a good reason Sage carries the Shoprider and Fortress scooters, and have for years! Quality, reliability, style, the warranty and most importantly the support we receive from the Canadian suppliers. This customer service and quality allow the Sage team to pass this on to our customers.

So...Watch for all of the above! and additionally: How old are the batteries? Have they been kept charged? The charger should be available. Check the tires, test drive it, etc.

Like cars, there are bargain brands and luxury ones. The ones our techs see people having trouble with are especially ones not manufactured in Canada, which makes parts either more difficult to obtain or more costly.

Sage rents, sells and repairs scooters, and may have used ones available.

If you do decide to purchase a used scooter, the Sage technicians can do a servicesafety check, if you are allowed to try before you buy.

Once you have a Will it is a good idea to periodically review it to ensure that your Will still does what you want it to do given your current life circumstances. Common events that may require a change in your Will include:

•

A change in your spousal relationship, such as: – Marriage (which invalidates your Will); – Divorce; or – If you have been living with someone for two years or longer.

• Your children are now over 18.

• Someone named in your Will becomes ill or disabled so that a guardian or further financial support/protection may be necessary.

• If any of your beneficiaries have predeceased you.

• Your executor has predeceased you or is no longer capable of acting as your Executor.

• If a child of yours marries, lives with someone for two years or separates/divorces.

• Birth or adoption of additional children or grandchildren.

• Any major change in your financial circumstance, such as buying or selling a

#IndianLovePoems explore Indigenous erotica with humour

Shannon Boklaschuk Saskatoon Express oet. Academic. Photographer. Businessperson.

Blogger. Mother. PhD student.

Tenille K. Campbell wears many hats, and she can now add another description to her long list of roles and accomplishments: Saskatchewan Book Awards finalist.

Campbell’s acclaimed book, #IndianLovePoems, has been nominated in two categories: O’Reilly Insurance and the Cooperators First Book Award and Rasmussen, Rasmussen & Charowsky Indigenous Peoples’ Writing Award.

“I was really excited,” Campbell said of learning the news.

However, because she doesn’t tend to “run in writers’ circles,” Campbell said being shortlisted seemed to come “completely out of the blue.”

“But I’m super happy and I’m up, or I’m with, some amazing writers,” she added.

Campbell is a Dene and Métis writer and photographer from the English River First Nation who is currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Saskatchewan in English. She previously completed her Master of Fine Arts degree in creative writing at the University of British Columbia.

In #IndianLovePoems, Campbell dives into Indigenous intimacy and romance — and does so with her characteristic sense of humour. Campbell describes her debut poetry collection as “a book of love stories about lust and romance and sex and one-night stands.” Although the book isn’t about regrets, there is some “shaking of the head in the morning,” she said with a laugh, and the stories are “all told through the lens of an Indigenous woman and told tongue-in-cheek, with humour.”

Campbell said she drew on her own experiences with sex and dating when writing the poems. Since she talks candidly about those topics with her friends, their experi-

P

ences also helped inform her work.

“There’s a lot of personal stories in here — I’m not saying which ones — but they’re told in first person, so I carry the responsibility of having the weight of all the stories, which is fine,” said Campbell.

“But they’re definitely some in there that belong to my friends and were given permission to share — so that was interesting collaborations of truth, I guess.”

While Campbell had fun writing the book, she also felt it was an important project. She has since seen women and men reading #IndianLovePoems who have never previously read a poetry book — and yet they have consumed hers in one sitting.

Campbell’s poetry collection has been generating buzz since its release; for example, it was included on the CBC Books great Canadian reading list, which featured 150 books to read for Canada 150. She was also named a CBC Future 40 winner for 2017 in the Arts, Culture and Entertainment category.

As Campbell’s star as an author rises, she remains busy with other ventures; for example, the 34-year-old mother of one is also the owner and artist behind Sweetmoon Photography, which specializes in photographing Indigenous people. As well, she is the co-creator of tea&bannock, an online collective blog that features the work and stories of Indigenous women photographers from throughout Canada. The blog can be viewed at teaandbannock.com.

Another big focus is her PhD work. Campbell’s thesis will focus on community-based research on her home reserve of English River First Nation. She will interview family members living both on and off reserve and examine the ties between family stories and kinship.

“I’m hoping to bridge the gap, or just reinforce the idea that family stories are the first step into culture and community — and how can you know who you are if you AC032610 Aaron don’t know who, and where, you come from?”

Tenille K. Campbell’s book, #IndianLovePoems, has been nominated in two categories for a Saskatchewan Book Award. (Photo Supplied) If Campbell wins a book award, she said she will feel proud, noting that it would be “really cool to see an acknowledgement” of her work. Although she notes she is not alone in writing about Indigenous erotica, her book is currently one of the most public — and winning an award would emphasize “that you can write about Indigenous erotica with humour, and it doesn’t have to be serious and sad.”

“I think it’s important,” she said.

The Saskatchewan Book Awards celebrate excellence in publishing and writing. The 25th awards ceremony will be held on April 28 at the Conexus Arts Centre in Regina.

CBC’s Zarqa Nawaz, the creator of Little Mosque on the Prairie and the author of Laughing All the Way to the Mosque, will host the evening.

Governor general to honour artists during ceremony in Ottawa

I

t’s a big week for three Canadian artists with Saskatchewan connections.

Photographer and video artist Sandra Semchuk, visual and performance artist Adrian Stimson and ceramic artist Jack Sures are among the YXE Arts winners of the 2018 Governor General’s Awards in Visual and Media Arts.

Funded and administered by the Canada Council for the Arts, the $25,000 cash prize includes categories for artistic achievement in visual and media arts, fine craft and outstanding contribution.

Semchuk, Stimson and Sures are part of a group of eight artists who will be honoured during an awards ceremony on March 28 at Rideau Hall in Ottawa.

Governor General Julie Payette will be in attendance to present medallions.

Semchuk, who was born in Meadow Lake, Sask., earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the University of Saskatchewan in 1970. Her work has been informed by her identity as a Ukrainian Canadian woman who grew up on the Prairies as a child of Ukrainian immigrant AS032609 Aaron parents.

Semchuk studied structurist art

Shannon Boklaschuk

with Eli Bornstein and is known as a cofounder of the artist-run Photographers Gallery in Saskatoon. Currently based in Vancouver, B.C., she now teaches at Emily Carr University.

Stimson, a member of the Siksika (Blackfoot) Nation in Alberta, received his Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Saskatchewan in 2006. He uses his persona of Buffalo Boy to satirize stereotypes around gender, sexuality and race, and his work can be found in the collections of the Mackenzie Art Gallery, Canadian Art Bank and the British Museum.

(Continued from page 14) His 2017 solo exhibition at Wanuskewin Heritage Park, School Days, took a critical look at the residential school system and its long-standing impacts on Canada’s Indigenous people.

Sures will be honoured with the Saidye Bronfman Award, Canada’s foremost distinction for excellence in fine crafts.

Born in Brandon, Man., his career in ceramics has spanned six decades and his work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally.

A recipient of the Order of Canada and the Saskatchewan Order of Merit, Sures is also known for his major public work, which includes a large mural for the Sturdy Stone Centre in Saskatoon, a mural for the Canadian Museum of Civilization in Ottawa and a terrazzo floor for Regina’s Wascana Rehabilitation Centre. Sures is based in Regina, where he continues to work as a visiting artist at the University of Regina.

Canada’s governor general and the Canada Council for the Arts created the Governor General’s Awards in Visual and Media Arts in 1999 to recognize remarkable careers in the visual and media arts.

If you’ve driven down Broadway Avenue recently, you may have noticed more light at night.

The City of Saskatoon has added Tony Stallard’s contemporary urban light sculpture — entitled River and Sky — to the north-facing wall of the Saskatchewan Craft Council building. The piece is part of the Placemaker Program’s temporary exhibits, which are meant to “transform public spaces and engage with audiences to promote an appreciation for contemporary art practices,” according to the City.

The light sculpture features Cree syllabics that can be translated to ‘nipiy mîna sîpiy’ (NIH’-pee MEE’-nuh SEE’pee), which means river and sky. Cree performance artist Joseph Naytowhow and Cree writer Kenneth T. Williams collaborated on the artwork.

According to the city, “the intention of River and Sky was to create a poetic sitespecific artwork that reflects the sacred and ritualistic space of Treaty 6. The artwork connects to the treaty relationship referencing ‘as long as the river flows, the grass grows and the sun shines.’ These words remind us that this is a permanent relationship and that the treaty is meant to live for generations and generations. The sculpture also embodies the historic im-

portance of the elders’ meeting place near the river, and as a contemporary location to gather, meet and socialize.”

River and Sky will be displayed on the Saskatchewan Craft Council building for two years. The piece is a sister work to Land of the Berries, Stallard’s light installation on the north-facing wall of Persephone Theatre.

Stallard is an English artist who is best known for his large-scale public works in the U.K. and other international locations.

He currently has a temporary installation that accompanies River and Sky on display at the front entryway of the Saskatchewan Craft Council’s gallery.

A mural that celebrates Indigenous languages was officially unveiled on March 21 — coinciding with the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination — in the Arts Building on the University of Saskatchewan campus.

Métis artist April Doepker was a driving force behind the Living Language Wall project. Prior to the painting’s unveiling, she was on campus during Indigenous Achievement Week Feb. 5 to 9 to develop and discuss her creation with students, faculty and staff.

In the centre of a large canvas, Doepker painted the word “kaskihowin,” which means “achievement” in the Plains Cree language. Throughout the week, Doepker invited passersby in the Arts Building to use graffiti paint markers to add other words to the canvas related to the achievement theme. As part of the participatory art project, people could choose from 64 words representing eight Indigenous languages: Inuktitut, Plains Cree, Dene, Dakota/Lakota, Nakota, Michif and Saulteaux.

“Part of the point of the project was getting all sorts of people involved and teaching them a bit about these different languages we have in Saskatchewan — but doing it in a fun, kind of cool, way that is interesting to people,” Doepker said.

Incorporating a graffiti style into the piece was also a natural fit for Doepker, who gained an appreciation for street art while studying fashion design in Montreal. Doepker also works as the sign and design manager at Saskatoon Community Youth Arts Programming (SCYAP), where she helps other artists showcase their work through the annual We Needi Graffiti art exhibition — a show she has curated and organized for the last 10 years.

$243,410 raised in radiothon for adult emergency department

S

askatchewan residents, businesses, health-care workers and others from across Canada answered the call last week to stretch their generosity in support of Royal University Hospital’s new adult emergency department.

A total of $243,410 was raised during Royal University Hospital Foundation’s “GREATE.R. Campaign” Radiothon sponsored by Suer and Pollon Mechanical which also matched total donations up to $100,000 during the 12-hour event.

Great West Life, London Life, and Canada Life donated $50,000 and RUH’s emergency department physicians, nurses, other medical teams and support staff donated $51,500.

“The generosity of our supporters and donors is remarkable and each contribution regardless of size will assist our emergency medical teams to continue their more than 60-year tradition of treating the most critically ill and injured patients from across the province for decades to come,” Arla

Gustafson, CEO of RUH Foundation, said in a news release. “Together we are helping set the stage for a new era in the delivery of adult emergency care in our community and province for when the unimaginable happens.”

RUH’s new adult emergency department is currently under construction and will be completed late in 2019. Its floor space will be almost 2.5 times larger than that of the current emergency department that was last redeveloped 40 years ago.

It includes 35 separate examination rooms with glass sliding doors for increased privacy and safety, and has a helipad on the rooftop with direct elevator access to the emergency department’s trauma zone will enable faster response times.

Donations to RUH Foundation’s GREATE.R. Campaign are being accepted until March 31. People can donate online at ruhf.org, by calling the foundation at 306-655-1984 or visiting the office located at RUH’s old main entrance.

Designers excited about fashion show

“I

(Continued from page 3) was going to go to Vancouver because I thought there was no schooling in Saskatchewan until I dug deeper and found this school. I found it is more one-on-one than any of the other schools.”

She said pants and jackets have become her specialties.

“My friend Teneshia (Prytula) loves the opposite of what I do. She loves tops and dresses. So by the end of this year, we’re looking into collaborating and building up social media and hopefully eventually getting into our own business — selling online, travelling and blogging and all that fun stuff.”

Prytula planned to be a veterinarian but moved away from biology and chemistry after visiting the booth the academy set up at a career fair at her high school.

She took the brochure and now, at age 19, she’s a second-year student. She should have known design was in her future when she made her grad dress.

“I could nail it better now,” she said with a laugh. “It was exciting. It took me about eight months to make a grad dress with my auntie because we had to combine so many patterns. If I was to do it now, I could make it in a week and a half.”

On grad day she won the award for the best dress, topping all the store-bought ones.

The four designers are excited about the show. The fittings have been completed and a photo shoot was held last week.

It is quite something to see your collection on a runway at a fashion/trade show.

“Selling is the best feeling,” Prytula said. “People think everything is so amazing, but they don’t see the behind-the-scenes of us crying, ripping out zippers and when everything is a mess. When we go to our show we are like, ‘Oh gosh, I hope they like it.’ When someone buys something or even when they come up to us and tell us our things are beautiful, it’s a relief.”

Leblanc said it is important that outfits show well.

“If people see one thing wrong when it is on the runway, even if there is thread hanging, that’s all they are going to see,” she said. “They aren’t going to see the amount of work we put in; it’s just that one wrong detail. So it is important for us to get every single thing perfected.”

She said she did some custom work last summer.

“It was nerve wracking because it was my first year.

Making something that was custom fit for somebody took a lot of confidence. But it’s a nice feeling when they are really happy with the product.”

Leblanc said people will be impressed with the quality of clothing at the show.

“I feel like when people hear we make our own clothes, the first instinct is ‘Oh, I don’t think I would buy it.’ When people try on our clothes for model fittings they are, ‘I can’t believe this is an actual garment.

We were expecting clothes to look not well made. If we were to wash it, it would fall apart.’”

That won’t happen, she said.

“It is very good quality. We learn from the best,” Leblanc said, pointing to Brigidear.

Enriched Living Studio $1355 - $1580 1 Bedroom $1445 - $2030 2 Bedroom $1695 - $2365

Tickets for the show are $15. They are available at the academy and at the door. The show will run from approximately 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on April 8 at the Western Development Museum.

For more information, call the academy at 306-9789088, email fashiondesign@sasktel.net. The academy’s website is www.aofdesign.com. A donation will be made to Creative Kids Saskatoon.

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU LOOK FOR LOVE ONLINE? Dear Lianne I was so excited. I joined an online dating site and quickly was contacted by a doctor. We had a great rapport and he told me he let his family know all about me. We would talk daily and he wanted us to meet quickly. Things started to slow down and he said I was the first one he spoke to. I let him know that he was welcome to try the rest and contact me once he was serious.

He decided he wanted us to meet in May. He explained that he wants to do things differently with me and take time to establish a friendship.

He will be travelling for work and pleasure most of the time prior to May. I rarely hear from him now and felt a huge disconnect. When I explained to him that this is a bizarre way of trying to get to know someone, he asked why his way was defective. He said this is his first

Everybody Loves a Circus Artists join forces for unique cabaret Cam Hutchinson Saskatoon Express anica Lorer’s first brush with modern body painting came 10 years ago.

A friend made her aware of an edition of Sports Illustrated which featured models wearing pretty much nothing except paint and smiles.

Lorer had been face painting for more than 20 years and had dabbled in painting necks, legs and arms, but never a complete body.

“Face and body painting has been around since the beginning of time: ceremonial ways, for rituals, for celebration, for adornment,” she said. “It’s not new, but it was the modern first look I had at something to be used on the body in a more complex and complete way.”

Lorer will be one of the competitors in the upcoming Welcome to the Circus Body Paint Cabaret, presented by Free Flow Dance Theatre. It is a team event, with Lorer partnering with the Helika Acro Yoga duo of Cassandra Stinn and Sean Kirk. Eight other teams will be in the competition.

The event brings together people from various art forms.

“The idea behind the event is to combine two elements of art — performing arts and visual arts,” said Jackie Latendresse, artistic director of Free Flow and the organizer of the event.

“One of the things I love to do is collaborations and facilitate collaborations. It’s very inspiring to the other artists as well to be constantly stimulated by other art forms and to see the ways they are similar and different.

“We need that support system and that inspiration. We need to keep challenging ourselves and challenging each other.”

Lorer agrees.

“Then we all grow; we all get better. It’s good for everybody, not just one art form.”

Lorer painted Stinn and Kirk for their performance last year at a much lower key inaugural event.

“We are getting ready for a really exciting piece for this year again,” she said.

“They’re so strong and they are beautiful young people and have fabulous ideas. We work really well together. We have the music, we have the movement, the visuals and bringing all of these things to make a piece that will hopefully excite people and amaze them. It is a very exciting thing to do.”

“I have been doing this for 20 years; it is another place where I am able to stretch.

It’s really fun because it’s high energy. You have everybody in here and you’re working together. You have music playing and it almost becomes a circus.”

Lorer has painted thousands upon thousands of faces during the past two decades.

“Every time I have a child in front of me you know this is really special. This is something they are excited about.”

She loves the look on children’s faces when she holds up a mirror so they can see their temporary transformations into a butterfly or tiger or leopard or space person.

“It’s really lovely. I feel honoured to be an artist in this art form.”

She said she saw the same look last year in the eyes of her Helika teammates.

“They were giddy about it. They liked the way they looked and they knew it was going to pump up their performance level even more because they had something else they had pride in.”

Latendresse guarantees people will have a good time.

“This competition is unlike anything anybody has seen in this city,” Latendresse said. “If people have never experienced a body painting-style event, this is the event.

This is it. Come now and get addicted.

Danica Lorer applies paint to Cassandra Stinn before last year’s body painting cabaret.

The event will be held April 7 this year.

(Ken Greenhorn Photography) “We hope the Saskatchewan community comes out and supports it. It is innovative and new and sometimes with those events people are a little hesitant to try, but they’re not going to be disappointed.

“This is going to be an event for them to remember.”

Latendresse says there are two tiers of tickets. There is general ticket price of $40 and also an artist rate of $25.

“These are for our creative friends who are perhaps working in a lower income bracket. They are for working artists or anybody who identifies as an artist.

We want artists to be able to attend arts events.”

Doors will open at 7 p.m. on April 7 at LB Distillers, with the show at 8 p.m.

Latendresse said LB is the perfect venue for an event.

“It’s gorgeous. They are a very generous company. They are always supporting local arts groups, so we want to give a shout out to them.”

Danica Lorer has been face painting for more than 20 years.
