Thelma Pepper: A longtime love of photography
Shannon Boklaschuk Saskatoon Express helma Pepper is living proof that people should pursue their passions at any age. The Saskatoon resident was 60 years old when she rekindled an interest in photography that was first sparked during her youth. Her father and grandfather were passionate amateur photographers, and Pepper spent many hours in the darkroom printing pictures as a young woman living in Nova Scotia. Now 97 years old — she will celebrate her 98th birthday in July — Pepper continues to be a productive and influential photographer of provincial, national and international acclaim. She is known for her black and white portraits of people living in Saskatchewan, a province that she has come to identify as her adopted home. Pepper’s work has received a number of Canada Council for the Arts and Saskatchewan Arts Board grants. In 2011, when Pepper was 90, her book Human Touch: Portraits of Strength, Courage and Dignity, was shortlisted for the book-of-the-year honour at the Saskatchewan Book Awards. In 2014, Pepper was among the Lieutenant Governor’s Art Awards recipients, receiving recognition for her lifetime achievement. Now, during a ceremony in May, Pepper and five other Saskatchewan citizens will be invested with the Saskatchewan Order of Merit, the province’s highest honour. The Saskatchewan Order of Merit was established in 1985 to recognize excellence and achievements from outstanding citizens and is recognized in the national sequence of orders by the federal govern-

While Pepper plans to attend the ceremony, she is humble when asked about her accomplishments. “I guess I was lucky, wasn’t I, that I had a darkroom in my home in Kingston,” said Pepper, noting the important role family has played in her life. “I give the credit to my dad, because he so believed in me and in thinking I could do things,” she said.
Pepper was born in 1920 in Kingston, N.S., where her parents operated L.D. Stevens General Store and her grandparents operated S.S. Stevens Lumber Company. A sports enthusiast, Pepper went to Acadia University in Wolfville, N.S., with an entrance scholarship. She was a member of the tennis team and received her undergraduate degree in 1941, before heading to McGill University in Montreal to pursue a master’s degree in botany.
Pepper had wanted to study chemistry, but that the subject was not seen as a fit for women at the time and she was encouraged to focus on botany instead. Ironically, she met her future husband, Jim, a chemist, while she was teaching a botany lab to chemistry students at McGill in 1942. “I think I still got one of his lab sheets that says, ‘You can do better,’ ” Pepper said with a chuckle.

TCU Place, once known as the Centennial Auditorium, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. I have often wondered how buildings celebrate anniversaries. Do they go to The Keg for dinner? I remember Editor quite clearly many of the events I attended at the Auditorium, but two concerts stand out. While my friends liked heavier stuff, I was a Bee Gees fan from the first time I heard their music. I actually remember driving to the Gardiner Dam area in 1971 with a friend and his girlfriend. She, or he, put an eight-track of Bee Gees music into the eight-track thing mounted under the dash of his car. I liked the music, but I also liked the fact his girlfriend really liked it. I figured if I ever get a date, I will make sure to have a Bee Gees cassette or eight-track close at hand. Sandy and I met in 1973. I was pretty much smitten on that October evening, but that’s another story for another time. When I heard the Bee Gees were coming to town not too long after being smitten, I said to myself, “Cam, don’t screw this up.” Then another voice entered the conversation I was having with myself: “Cam, you always screw up. Why would this night be any different?” It is difficult to screw up a Bee Gees concert. I remember parts of it quite vividly. We sat front row/centre in the Grand Circle. The songs came pouring out: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart, I Started a Joke, Massachusetts, Run To Me, Lonely Days, To Love Somebody. I hope nobody has the set list to prove me wrong. I was one of the few guys who could sing along. I really liked Robin Gibb’s nasal voice. And I hated Barry Gibb for being so darn cool. Maurice Gibb never seemed to do much. A symphony orchestra — or a big chunk of one — was backing the Brothers Gibb that night. I’ve never asked her, but I think Sandy 2

enjoyed the concert almost as much as I did. Sandy and I saw the Bee Gees again about five years later. We were an old married couple by then. The Bee Gees did a medley of their early stuff, with the concert featuring songs like Stayin’ Alive, How Deep Is Your Love and Too Much Heaven. I hope nobody has the set list to prove me wrong. Robin Gibb didn’t get to sing lead vocals on much of the new stuff. Barry was the star and looked resplendent in his trademark white suit. Those two concerts, especially the first one, are my most memorable moments at TCU Place. There are many others: Saskatoon Hall of Fame induction ceremonies, Kinsmen Sports Dinners and Broadway productions. Graduation ceremonies were held there. I received my Bachelor of Arts from John Diefenbaker. That was really cool. Sandy and I got to be proud parents on a bunch of occasions for our sons’ grads. Sandy and I were at the Auditorium for a concert on a historic night. In late September, 1983, the Little River Band, a group from Australia, was playing at the Auditorium. On the day of the concert, Australia ended a 132-year losing streak
— yes, 132 years — and won the America’s Cup. (And Toronto Maple Leafs fans think 51 years is a long time.) The New York Yacht Club had held the title for all that time. It left challenger after challenger in its wake in one of the most hoity-toity events in the world of sports. Ted Turner once captained the U.S. boat, which tells you pretty much all you need to know. Not to brag, but unlike many in the audience, I knew what the America’s Cup was. I worked in The StarPhoenix sports department at the time, so we had access to stories as they came over the wire. We were all cheering for the Aussies. The concert was memorable because of the absolute joy the boys in the band were feeling. And it carried over into the audience. Time moves on. Two of the Gibb brothers have died. The Aussies gave the cup back to the United States in 1987 and haven’t won it since. Now, TCU Place is showing its age and needs to expand if it is to stay competitive in the convention business. We need our city council to work on this. Here’s to TCU Place. Its first 50 years provided a lot of joy in my life, and I hope it has in yours as well.

Jane’s Walk
See the city from a different perceptive Cam Hutchinson Saskatoon Express ne day a little boy came running into the house and told his mother that somebody was planning to cut down a tree on the boulevard. The boy’s mom, Jane Jacobs, put a stop to it. She put a stop to a lot of things during her life. She fearlessly took on “the man” in New York City — and won. After her death in 2006, her friends decided to honour her through walking tours of their cities. Saskatoon was no exception with 20 walks scheduled from May 4 to May 6. “The idea of Jane’s Walks is to have lots of interaction with the people,” organizer Cathy Watts said. “It’s very casual; you don’t register; they’re free; they are citizen led. It’s a way to build community.” She said the walks can take people into little corners in the city where they have never ventured or perhaps didn’t know about. As a busy committee member, Watts won’t be leading a specific walk, but will be at as many as possible to provide greetings and give a short bio of Jacobs. Watts is one of nine organizers of the event. Jacobs, her husband and their three children were living in Greenwich Village in New York City when she was thrust into the spotlight. A powerful man named Robert Moses wanted to wipe out Greenwich Village for a freeway. “She took him on,” Watts said. “Through her grassroots work, she gathered up neighbours, she showed up at meetings and the rest is history. It is really heartening. If you are a community organizer or you’re a person who is trying to make change, or build community, you have to read her books. It gets a
O
feel of the power of one. “It was a different time and a different era, so for this kind of plain-looking woman to be able to take this on and win was pretty remarkable. It didn’t all happen at once; it was a process.” Watts said people will likely see Saskatoon differently after a walk. They will pay more attention to details in their surroundings, she said. “Jane Jacobs didn’t have formal education in what she did, but she observed and watched. She watched to see what makes a street interesting; what makes a street lively. She talked about the organic dance on the street.” What would Jane Jacobs think of Saskatoon? “I think she would say we are trying,” Watts said. “I mean Broadway is a very interesting thing. There are a lot of elements on Broadway that are very much like that; you’re getting a mix of highend accommodation close in that Nutana neighbourhood but also students and a real mix of people. You’re getting young people; you’re getting retired people so you mix it all up. “When you get to suburbia there is no mix. It is all young families; that’s it. I don’t want to say it’s not very interesting, but it isn’t very interesting. “It’s pretty homogeneous, right? It suits a lifestyle: people need two cars, they need vans to put their kids in and they are driving all over the place taking their kids everywhere. It’s a whole different spectrum.” Jane Jacobs would say spreading out is a bad thing, Watts added. There are a wide array of walks this year. They include the Eighth Street Pedestrian Experience, the Artists of Caswell and one on the proposed downtown arena.
Cathy Watts is an organizer of the Jane’s Walk in Saskatoon. (Photo by Cam Hutchinson) Watts said an Indigenous-themed walk at the U of S was among the most enlightening last year. “We did a couple of walks last year that were really great. I think people that go to that will understand a lot about the racism and how some people have done really amazing things to get educated. The university is working hard to try to help Indigenous students be successful because this is a pretty hostile place for them. “I have friends who went on those walks last year and they said, ‘oh my goodness, I learned so much.’ . . . We are not going to get to this reconciliation without a lot of knowledge. You are going to learn a lot about that there. You go to something like that and your lens
is changing. I know there are some really amazing people who have put this walk together.” Watts said the committee doesn’t select the walks. “We take what people give us. We will work with somebody, but we don’t usually interfere with them. We are just a facilitation of trying to get people comfortable doing it and giving them any tips they need.” She said the walks are well worth spending the hour or so that each takes. “The more people know about the city, the more they are connected and the more they care about it.” For more information on the walks, including a schedule, please visit www. janeswalksaskatoon.ca.

Jeremy Thompson: Lacrosse more than a sport for Rush fan favourite
Darren Steinke Saskatoon Express eremy Thompson still gets a bit of a chuckle out of being a fan favourite. The chuckle comes because the gritty transition player for the Saskatchewan Rush doesn’t see himself as being more special than anyone else. “I still can’t figure it out to this day,” said Thompson with a laugh. “Maybe it is my hair? Maybe it is the braid?” Thompson believes people relate to him because he is genuine. “I go out there, and I play the best I can and put my effort out there 100 per cent,” said Thompson, who stands 5-foot-11 and weighs 196 pounds. “Most importantly, I encourage the people around me to have fun. I have fun at what I do. “I think that has a ripple effect on

assists, appearing in all 18 regular-season games. In 2016, Thompson was the runner-up for the NLL Transition Player of the Year award and was named an NLL (Continued on page 5)

(Continued from page 4) All-Pro second team all-star. He finished second in faceoff wins (279) and third in loose ball pickups (174). This season, Thompson has six goals and eight assists, helping the squad post a 13-4 record. He has 223 faceoff wins and 151 loose ball scoops and will likely finish in the top five in each category this season. Thompson grew up in the Onondaga Nation located near Syracuse in upstate New York. He said lacrosse is very important to his people. The sport came from the Iroquois Confederacy, which the Onondaga Nation is part of. “For us, lacrosse is much more than a sport,” said Thompson. “It is culturally surrounded with us back in our communities.” Children of the Onondaga Nation are given a homemade traditional wooden lacrosse stick in their cradle when they are born. In death, they carry a traditional wooden lacrosse stick in their casket. Thompson started playing organized lacrosse at around age six or seven and hasn’t stopped since. After graduating high school, Thompson attended Onondaga Community College for two seasons, helping the Lazers lacrosse team win two National Junior College Athletic Association championships. He proceeded to play two seasons for the Syracuse University Orange men’s lacrosse team. Through his schooling, Thompson gained the education he needed to run his own lacrosse company. Following the completion of his collegiate career, he was selected ninth overall in the 2011 NLL Draft by the Buffalo Bandits. He came to the Rush franchise via a trade following the 2012 campaign. During the Rush’s first campaign in Saskatchewan in 2016, Thompson won three team awards including the SaskTel transition player of the year award, TD Unsung Hero award and the Dream Developments Community Service award. He enjoys travelling the province to make appearances for the team whether it’s helping teach children aspects of the game during a short clinic or brighten-
ing everyone’s day at Ronald McDonald House. “I like to surround myself (with) people. One of the things that is going on right now in our world is that there is a lot of bad stuff out there, but at the same time there is a lot of good out there. You have to look at the good side of things and really have a balance and have respect for even that bad side. “For me, I just see myself as an uncle to a lot of these kids. In this world and in this lifetime today, not every child or person might have a parent or an aunt or an uncle in their life.” Thompson was followed to the NLL by his three younger brothers — Jerome, Miles and Lyle — who all play for the Georgia Swarm. Lyle is one of the NLL’s biggest stars. After helping the Rush win a league title in 2015 in Edmonton and 2016 in Saskatchewan, Jeremy watched his brothers hoist the Champion’s Cup as the Rush fell to the Swarm 2-0 in the best-of-three NLL championship series last year. “For me, it is a win, win,” said Thompson. “The way I see it, I don’t lose. “The way I am playing and the way I was taught I’m playing for the Creator. I’m playing for the entertainment of my creator and my community and the people that can’t play and my ancestors that have passed on. “Those are some of the things I think about when that national anthem is going on before every game. I am thankful to this game and for this opportunity.” Thompson said it has been fun to play in front of crowds of over 14,000 at SaskTel Centre. He believes the provincial spirit that follows the CFL’s Saskatchewan Roughriders has gotten behind his team as well. As the Rush play through their third campaign, Thompson said he can tell the fans are becoming more educated about lacrosse. He loves it when the fans share their stories about enjoying the game. “It has just been an unbelievable experience for us,” he said.

In British Columbia, they have an inprovince plastics program wherein those who create the plastics must pay for their recycling. Not only is that brilliant from a not relying on other countries point of view, it would keep plastics producers pretty honest on what and how much they’re making. B.C. is pretty much in the same boat as we are on paper, though. China, again, is part of the issue; it’s being very picky about how ‘clean’ the paper is, so the old-time so-called ‘mixed paper’ is becoming a problem. In fact, that kind of paper once fetched about $80 per tonne. You know what the market price is now? $Zero. $Nada. $Bupkus. How do you, as a municipality, region or province, pay for recycling programs when you’re getting absolutely squat for the effort? You know the answer to that. We taxpayers are, well, going to pay. More and more, as recycling falls out of fashion. We’re facing a new environment in which we will pay someone to take our recycling, instead of getting a bit of a return. People in the recycling field, and those from municipalities, are saying things like
Fish Forever set for May 5
T
he 12th annual Fish Forever will be held May 5 at the Forestry Farm trout pond. The event provides a day of fishing for children who may not otherwise have the opportunity, while teaching them the value of conservation. Fish Forever runs from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Fishing rods and reels are provided, there is no entry charge at the gate and there will be a barbecue. Volunteers, as well as members of the Saskatoon Police Service, will be on hand to answer questions and help participants learn to fish. Bob Izumi, chair of Fishing Forever, is a big believer in the event. “There is no better way to enjoy a day with the kids, away from all the electronics, and to teach conservation, than through a fun day of fishing,” he said in a release. Pre-registration is required. It can be completed online at picatic.com/ fishforever2018. Those without Internet access can contact Tusia at fishforeverinfo@gmail.com or by calling 306-241-7680. A courtesy van will be available to pick up those who would like assistance getting to and from the event.

“we’re going to pay more for recycling in the future.” Sounds like that just might be the understatement of 2018 so far. Several jurisdictions are working on a plastic bag ban (it’s the filmy stuff like grocery bags that’s the big problem right now) and some have done it: Montreal, Boston, and some U.K. jurisdictions, among others. It’s starting to look like we will have little choice but to ban the things, or revert to the landfill option — which nobody wants. Landfills are already full and disgusting and huge, not to mention expensive to operate and difficult to locate due to environmental issues like ground water contamination. Paper is already a problem, and it’s getting to be a bigger worry. And then what’s next? We must still recycle, obviously. It’s better than not, for sure, so let’s do it for as long as possible. I am not, however, convinced that there’s longevity in that model. We’re going to have to look pretty hard at other options, policies and lifestyle (ugh, what a word) changes, including paying exorbitant fees for recycling. We can no longer count on the rest of the world to take our garbage, much less pay for it.

Chamber music festival celebrates 10 years in Saskatoon
Shannon Boklaschuk Saskatoon Express ay is an important month for Carissa Klopoushak and Jacqueline Woods: It marks the 10th anniversary of the local music festival they founded. Saskatoon’s Ritornello Chamber Music Festival, which strives to bring the chamber music concert experience into the 21st century, will be held May 25 to 27. Woods, a pianist, and Klopoushak, a violinist, are reflecting on all that has been accomplished during the last decade, with Klopoushak describing the 10th anniversary milestone as “quite surreal.” “I think we always believed that the festival could have longevity, but life has a way of getting in the way,” she said. “I think it has a lot to do with the unwavering support of the community. We feel very supported, which drives us to create unique and inventive programming. It makes us better.” Woods added that seeing the festival turn 10 is “pretty incredible.” “When I look back on all the programs, the artists we’ve been able to bring in and collaborate with over the years, I’m proud of what we’ve achieved, what the festival has grown into,” she said. This year’s lineup of artists includes Mark Fewer (violin), Duane Andrews (guitar), Katherine Dowling (piano), Kevin Wesaquate (poetry), Kim de Laforest (violin), Clark Schaufele (piano and bass), Simon Fryer (cello), Joel McDonald (cello), Ryan Davis (viola), Amy Hillis (violin), Sam AC043008 Aaron Milner (violin), Margaret Wilson (clarinet)

and Klopoushak. There will be three concerts during the festival weekend: Mark Fewer and friends at Convocation Hall on the University of Saskatchewan campus on May 25 at 7:30 p.m.; Duane Andrews at Village Guitar & Amp Co. on May 26 at 8:30 p.m.; and the 10th anniversary celebration on May 27 at 2:30 p.m. at Remai Modern. “Saskatoon has such an active music community – thriving symphony, glorious choirs and a few very strong chamber music groups – but there is no other festival like ours,” said Klopoushak, when asked why Ritornello has thrived throughout the years. “(It) helps to be the only game in town, but I think I have to chalk it up to programming as well. We invest a lot of effort into bringing in and working with creative people, and try to find ways to make a unique experience,” she said. Woods and Klopoushak have seen their musical careers take them around the world, but they have remained connected to Saskatoon and Saskatchewan. Both women grew up in Saskatchewan and earned their bachelor’s degrees in music at the U of S. After completing her undergraduate studies, Woods attended the University of Ottawa to earn a master’s degree in music before embarking on doctoral studies at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. She currently lives in Saskatoon and is pursuing PhD studies at the Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy on the U of S campus. After receiving her undergraduate degree
at the U of S, Klopoushak went on to earn a master’s degree and a doctorate in violin performance at McGill University. She also spent time performing with the Australian Chamber Orchestra before moving to Ottawa in 2014 and becoming a member of Canada’s National Arts Centre Orchestra. When Woods and Klopoushak launched Ritornello a decade ago, they aimed to create a festival that could showcase the talents of fellow Saskatchewan musicians who had left the province. “I think we wanted to provide a space for chamber music, a space for our province’s musicians to come home to, to ‘return’ to,” Woods said. “Ritornello remains that today, and we’ve also expanded to invite international artists, our city’s great musicians – all collaborating together in just a few days to put on three exciting programs of great music around our city.” “There are so many wonderful musicians that grew up in Saskatoon and Saskatchewan and go off to study elsewhere, many of whom never returned to the city. Our goal was to bring back young professionals from the prairies to perform for the community that helped to raise them,” said Klopoushak. “Our mandate has expanded a bit more now to include our wonderful local players, imports to Saskatchewan and some of Canada’s finest chamber music groups. We’re also actively trying to expand the definition of chamber music to be more inclusive.” As Woods and Klopoushak look back on the last 10 years, the artistic directors are also looking to the future. Woods, for example,

(Photo by Bo Huang) would like to see the chamber music festival collaborate even more with Saskatoon’s artistic community, “across genres.” “Our annual fundraiser, Chefs’ Gala, finds us working together with actors from Live Five Theatre and opera singers from Little Opera On the Prairie. It’s been amazing to see what comes from this sort of mixed collaboration,” she said. “I’d like to find a way to collaborate with dancers and visual artists; we haven’t done either yet, so it’s definitely on my festival programming bucket list.” “I’d like to continue expanding our pool of artists, and deepen our roots in Saskatoon, working with many more artistic communities within the city,” added Klopoushak. “I’d like to continue to redefine the definition of chamber music, while celebrating the vast tradition of it.” For more information about the Ritornello Chamber Music Festival, or to purchase tickets, go online to ritornello.ca.

5 reasons why summer camp is a good choice for kids
S
ummer vacation offers students a respite from lessons and the routine of school. Children might once have eagerly awaited those final days of classes so they could lounge poolside, skip rocks across ponds and spend the long days of the season playing with friends. But many of today’s youngsters spend much of their summer vacations indoors playing with their digital devices. Perhaps that’s why one of the last vestiges of the classic summer vacation
escape - summer camp - remains such a viable option for parents who want their children to get outdoors once the school year ends. Explore talents. Under an organized, yet often easygoing, camp schedule, kids can dabble in sports, arts and crafts, leadership, community support, and so many other activities that may not be fully available to them elsewhere. Physical activity: Campers may spend their time swimming, running, hiking,

Day and sleepaway camps offer campers the opportunity to get comfortable in their own skin. Camps can foster activities in self-esteem by removing the academic measures of success and fill in with noncompetitive opportunities to succeed. Try new things. Camp gives children the chance to try new things, whether that’s learning to cook, exploring new environments or embracing a new sport or leisure activity. Make new friends. Camp is a great place to meet new people and make lifelong friends. Campers flood in from areas near and far. This provides kids with a chance to expand their social circles beyond their immediate neighborhoods and schools.

(Continued from page 1) o really, because they didn’t allow me to take chemistry, it kind of changed my life,” she
added. Jim Pepper went on to become a professor and the head of the Chemistry Department at the University of Saskatchewan. Thelma Pepper became acquainted with influential academics such as Henry Taube, who received the 1983 Nobel Prize for chemistry. Taube was born in 1915 to Russian-German immigrants in Neudorf, Sask., and Pepper travelled to Neudorf to photograph Taube’s tiny home community. In addition to her longtime love of photography, Pepper is a noted volunteer and has pursued a number of other hobbies over the years. Due to her interest in the natural world, for example, Pepper banded birds under the supervision of Dr. Stuart Houston and also took part in Saskatchewan native plant documentation, resulting in more than 150 native plants being professionally mounted. Pepper has advocated for literacy and creativity throughout her life, and played a role in creating Saskatoon’s first public school library as president of the Brunskill School parents’ advisory council. Pepper often read to her four children and she and her husband encouraged them to find something they could excel in. The children all became athletes and U of S graduates. It wasn’t until her children left home that Pepper really dove into photography. While they were at home she remained focused on parenting. “I looked after those kids. I really think I did a pretty good job of that,” she said. However, after reading an article in Maclean’s magazine, Pepper went to the Photographers Gallery in Saskatoon, a co-operative that renowned photographer and visual artist Sandra Semchuk helped found. Pepper felt nervous going there at first — she was older than many of the other photographers — but she was quickly welcomed. “That meant the world to me,” she said. “There’s no place, really, that was so good. It was sort of known across Canada and they had the best photographers.” What transpired from Pepper’s renewed interest in photography was a unique career that resulted in several major exhibitions documenting the people and places of Saskatchewan, as well as audio interviews with subjects. Today, Pepper’s work is stored in permanent collections across Saskatchewan, including Remai Modern, the Kenderdine Art Gallery at the U of S and Sherbrooke Community Centre. Pepper’s 1990 exhibition, Decades of Voices, focused on pioneer women and grew out of her experiences volunteering atTA043021 a long-term Tammy care home. Twice a week

Ask the Expert This photo comes from Thelma Pepper’s Human Touch Portraits Pepper would read to the residents, who soon began to share their life stories with her. She continues to look back on the women and their stories with respect and admiration. “I couldn’t believe the poverty, the hardships, the loneliness — and yet they were happy people,” she said. “They were strong and confident and committed to a way of life, and passionate. . . . They kept telling me their stories, and so I started to tape them — and then I really learned what life was like.” Pepper said the women were originally from countries such as Russia or Germany, and she even went back to their homesteads to learn more about their histories. “They opened up their lives to me and I was just fascinated by them,” she said. In a 1993 exhibition entitled Spaces of Belonging: A Journey Along Highway 41, Pepper collected oral histories from residents of small towns along Highway 41 between Saskatoon and Melfort. She developed relationships with the people she photographed and had a genuine interest in her subjects, only taking their pictures after earning their trust. “I didn’t want them to think that I was using them for my own good,” she said. Pepper fell in love with the examples of small-town Saskatchewan she saw through her art and the way of life in the communities. She captured the spirit of rural Saskatchewan and aimed to meet people who lived in the communities as well those who had left, “taking something with them from that time and place.” Pepper’s 2005 exhibition Untie the Spirit grew out of her personal life, inspired by her visits to see her husband at
Sherbrooke Community Centre after he became a resident there. Jim Pepper, who had Alzheimer’s disease, passed away in 2003 and lived at Sherbrooke for the last three years of his life. Thelma Pepper’s resulting exhibition featured portraits of staff and residents of the facility. “I just was fascinated by their philosophy that sometimes pets, plants, children and companionship are better than pills, so that’s what I tried to show,” she said. While Pepper has documented Saskatchewan’s landscapes and people, the camera has, at times, turned to focus on her. Two film productions have shone a light on Pepper’s work. Light Unleashed — The Photography of Thelma Pepper is a 30-minute documentary directed by her son, Gordon Pepper. It received a Saskatchewan Motion Picture Industry Association (SMPIA) Showcase Award. A Year at Sherbrooke, a 2009 National Film Board of Canada production, highlighted Pepper, artist Jeff Nachtigall and the Saskatoon facility, as well as the healing power of community and creativity. Pepper still continues to believe in the benefits of creativity. She also encourages people to find their passion and pursue it. “Try to find something you love” is her advice for others. In addition to Pepper, the other 2018 recipients of the Saskatchewan Order of Merit include: Robert Calder, professor emeritus and author, Saskatoon; Neil Richards, LGBT archivist and activist, Saskatoon (posthumous); National Chief Perry Bellegarde, Assembly of First Nations, Little Black Bear First Nation; Gail Bowen, author, Regina; and Maurice Delage, president of Delage Farms Ltd., Indian Head.

Is all this political bluster? Um, yeah. But let’s pretend for a moment that these are actual grownups and there is an actual possibility of this legislation being enacted. What on earth is the Saskatchewan government doing? Punishing our friends and family in B.C. by driving their oil prices through the roof, because of the alleged sins of the Prime Minister of Canada? What? I suspect the reality is that the eleventh hour change in spin on this legislation had a lot more to do with realizing that the potential ramifications of actually going through with this bill are so broad, and so unknown, and the risks so great, that the Saskatchewan government decided to play into their ongoing narrative about blaming Trudeau instead of coming out Meanwhile in Saskatchewan, after swinging at Horgan. weeks of threatening to table this legislaThere’s also the entirely plausible tion as a retaliatory measure against B.C., theory that Kinder Morgan, recognizing a here’s how the government spun their dead idea when it sees one, already knows announcement. they’re not going ahead with their pipe“The bill responds to the inaction by line — and all three provincial governthe federal government to assert its juments know that too. risdictional authority to ensure the Trans Given these issues are spiking the Mountain Expansion Project proceed popularity of all three premiers in their . . .

HE’S NOT YOUR POSSESSION, HE’S YOUR HUSBAND
Dear Lianne I’m absolutely LIVID! My husband and myself were grocery shopping. He went his way and I went mine. While he was in the meat department this woman approached him and started talking to him about the roast he was picking. She gave him cooking instructions and then had the nerve to offer her phone number in case he had any more questions or wanted additional help
from her. Obviously she was trying to pick up my husband. He is clearly married. He has a wedding ring on and I can’t believe how she behaved. He said no thank you to her but I am furious. He had to hold me back from telling her off. I’d like your opinion because this is just unacceptable. – Wife Dear Wife, You have no control over someone
else’s behaviour. Admittedly this woman was extremely bold and was clearly interested in your husband. I would celebrate the fact that he declined her invitation and shared the information with you. You would look foolish if you confronted her. The best bet would be to lovingly smile and understand in this world people often will want what is yours but remember he is your husband not your possession.

I toad you so
By RJ Currie innipeg’s two NHL franchises have not combined for a glorious history. This might be the first year the Jets store didn’t offer shopping bags with eye holes. • Nazem Kadri, suspended three games for a cheap hit, said the Leafs can learn from their Game 7 elimination. Maybe, but Kadri seems to have learned his hockey in boarding school. • The Canadian Football League announced Calgary will host the Grey Cup in 2019. The Winnipeg Blue Bombers were quick to respond: “What’s a Grey Cup?” • Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask is Finnish. The Maple Leafs are just finished. • How about Giants first baseman Brandon Belt having an at-bat that went nearly 13 minutes? I’ve had relationships that ended faster. • Ex-WWE star Davey Boy Smith is still wanted by New Orleans police for throwing a cup of coffee in the face of Jake (The Snake) Roberts. No word if Roberts suffered one lump or two. • A sure sign you watch too much NBA? Sacramento police say they arrested the Golden State Killer, and you think Steph Curry had one three-pointer too many against the Kings. • Hear about the girl who used to shorten her walk home from softball practice by angling across a field of

strawberries? It was a strawberry shortcut. • The Detriot Lions first-round pick was Arkansas centre Frank Ragnow. New coach Matt Patricia wasn’t kidding: he really does like to build from the inside out. • Chris Hepworth and his partner won the UK’s Wife Carrying championship. Otherwise holding known as holding on for dear wife. • A man proposed to his girlfriend at the London marathon while dressed as a T-Rex. Unlike Pats quarterback Tom Brady, he got his catch despite having short arms. • A Texas justice department employee got a 50-year sentence for ordering $1.2 million of fajitas with county funds. Given all that spicy food, I’m thinking he’ll get the gas chamber. • MLB’s rarest and riskiest pitch is the eephus, said to surprise hitters with its exceptionally slow speed. Tim Lincecum was known for it — although they called it his fastball. • WR Dez Bryant turned down a multi-year offer from the Ravens in hopes of landing a one-year deal. Even with the new catch rules, insiders think he dropped the ball. RJ’s Groaner of the Week Reuters reports team Black Horse has won the World Toad Throwing Championships. Witnesses say the action was ribbiting.
Melania didn’t get the perfect gift
et’s start off with a factoid. There hasn’t been a bench-clearing brawl in the NHL since Feb. 26, 1987. That night the Nordiques and Bruins went at it. According to one account it was triggered by Dale Hunter going goofy, and Bruins players fearing for their captain, Ray Bourque. Bob Sweeney led the charge off the Bruins bench, with Cam Neely among those who wanted a piece of Hunter. The scrapping lasted about four minutes. • Three from Janice Hough: “1. Will O.J. Simpson offer to help Bill Cosby find the real rapist? 2. When’s the duet coming out with Kanye West and Shania Twain? 3. Trump said he didn’t get Melania ‘so much’ for her birthday. ‘I got her a beautiful card.’ Not perhaps the gift she really wanted — divorce papers.” • It was announced last week that William will be the best man at Harry’s wedding. I didn’t see that one coming. • TC Chong, on Colin Kaeperinck’s tryout with the Seahawks being cancelled at the last moment: “His agent wanted Colin to be in the game only when Seattle was up by more than 17 points inside the two-minute warning, so he could come in and take a knee.” • From Torben Rolfsen: “Time for the Kentucky Derby, ‘the most exciting two minutes in sports.’ Which I thought was Tristan Thompson checking his dating app.” • Misguided baseball commissioner Rob Manfred, trying to justify putting games on Facebook at the expense of cable viewers: “We’re focused on the next generation of baseball fans, and a key part of that focus is making sure we are in a position to deliver on platforms where younger people want to consume content.” What a load of crap. • From Hough: “Congrats to Will and Kate on the birth of their third child.
It’s a small good thing in the universe, but in the British line of succession, Princess Charlotte now gets to stay ahead of her new baby brother.” • If this is true, Auston Matthews better get his act together quickly. NHL analyst Nick Kypreos says Mike Babcock has “lost” Matthews. The young forward better find himself quickly because Babcock isn’t going anywhere. • From Rolfsen: “Derek Jeter says he expects the Miami Marlins to contend. For what, the No. 1 overall draft pick?” • Frederik Andersen won a couple of games for the Leafs in the playoffs, but he is not going to win a Stanley Cup for them. His save percentage was .896, and his goals-against average was 3.76 in the Boston series. That’s not good enough. • From Chong: “The Maple Leafs are moving on to their next round in Tampa. No skates or hockey sticks though — golf clubs and golf shoes. • As a human being, I felt sorry for Jake Gardiner. From Rolfsen: “During the San Francisco Giants’ Brandon Belt’s record 21-pitch at-bat, Jake Guentzel scored four goals.” • Jim Lang, one of the biggest homers in the Toronto media, suggested a name for the new royal baby — Auston Phillip. I think he was joking, but you can never be sure with Jimbo. • From Hough: “The single best thing Trump ever did for Barbara Bush was improve her oldest son’s reputation.” • Stephen Colbert, on the birth of the royal baby: “He has his mother’s eyes and his father’s hair.” • From Chong: “Trump’s hockey knowledge — Las Vegas Golden Whats?? • From author Charles Leerhsen: “French President Macron was told not to say ‘oui, oui’ in Trump’s presence.”
