The generation that will end discrimination Could these be the faces that end discrimination and bullying once and for all? The Day of Pink is the International Day against bullying, discrimination, homophobia, transphobia, and transmisogyny across the world. On April 8, 9.4 million Canadians wore pink in a “Stop Bulling” campaign. Students in Kindergarten to Grade 12 at Souris School were part of that number. Pictured above: K-12 students pose for a Pink Day photo. Left: A teacher PHOTOS/DARCI SEMESCHUK lines up her students to head back to class.
9.4 million Canadians, including Souris students, wear Pink to Stop Bullying submitted The Day of Pink, this year on April 8, is the International Day against bullying, discrimination, homophobia, transphobia, and transmisogyny across the world. 9.4 million Canadians, including Souris School students in Kindergarten to Grade 12, wore wear pink to school, work and in their communities to raise awareness about these issues. “With over one-third of Canadians in pink, we know that people are more aware of these issues and are taking action! This year’s campaign, ‘A pink shirt doesn’t stop bullying, YOU DO’, speaks to the hard work of countless youth, educators and community leaders making our communities and schools safer,” said Jeremy Dias, director at the CCGSD. Laureen Harper said, “I will be wearing pink. I hope all Canadians, especially young Canadians, will join me, because one small act of kindness can help someone realize they are not alone.” Laureen is not alone. Almost every Premier, Lieutenant Governor and the Minister of Education, a Day of Pink Ambassador, were joined by other politicians, and community leaders like Rick Mercer. Check out all their messages for the Day of Pink here: dayofpink.org/2015/01/26/day-of-pink-quotes/ Last week, #TheGaySweater also got everyone talking about the messages in what we wear and the power of our actions. With almost 100K views in only a week, the sweater has becoming a talking piece at the water cooler. In addition, the educational tools that are getting into schools and workplaces are making real changes. As of tomorrow, the sweater will travel to schools and communities across the country. www.thegaysweater.ccgsd-ccdgs.org

Souris artist aiming to open new gallery by Glen Kirby “ My dream is to become the art hub of Souris,” says Kathleen Lagasse, sipping tea in the kitchen of her home, bold coloured artwork adorning nearby walls. “I know I can do it. I know it can work.” Lagasse is a selftaught, contemporary artist with a growing following and fierce determination. A health care worker by day and painter by night, Lagasse began offering art classes last June in a modest studio in the basement of her home. Now, she sees an opportunity to convert her passion into a full-time business for local artists and art lovers. “I am currently teaching more than 30 students several nights a week, some coming from Minnedosa and Brandon,” she says. “I’m selling my paintings and getting calls for commissioned work. I am seriously looking for space downtown to set up a gallery where I can hold classes, display my work, and bring in other artists who also want to sell their art or teach.” Lagasse says her artistic sideline con sumes more working hours than her job as nurses’ aide with the regional health authority, and she finds herself in the same dilemma which her grandfather faced a generation ago. “He worked his life as a hired farm hand,” she
says, “ And never believed that he could support his family as an artist.” Grandfather likely kindled the artistic fire, creating amusing doodles for Lagasse while demonstrating the basics of sketching. In high school in Killarney, she stoked the flames by convincing teachers to allow her to take extra art classes. A milestone came only six years ago when Lagasse sold her first painting. “Blocks of colour,” she recalls. “Which I sold to a girlfriend. I said to her that I had this painting that would look great in her living room. After that first sale...BOOM!” Since relocating to Souris from Elgin three years ago with her husband and two young sons, Lagasse has seen rising demand for both her art and teaching expertise. “Every week, new people are signing up for class,” she says, looking over her students’ canvases from the previous night. “I am teaching people from ages seven and up. I have one gentleman who is in his 80s and another lady who has cataracts. It was questionable whether she would be able to do it but the feedback on her work has been so positive that she keeps coming back,”said Lagasse. Lagasse admits that she never imagined herself as an art teacher.
Only a few years ago, she faced serious selfdoubt following an art sale at the Keystone Centre in Brandon. “ I only sold one painting,” she remembers. “ I was very discouraged and began thinking, maybe, I’m not that good.” To date, Lagasse’s works have been dis played and sold in communities including Souris, Brandon, Onanole and Winnipeg. “ Recently, I had showings at Grollé Fine Art in Winnipeg,” a gallery which specializes in 20th century and 21st century expressionism. “The owner said ‘you’re not a hobby artist anymore, you are a fine arts professional’. That made me feel good, although it’s hard for me to accept that.” When the mood strikes, Lagasse is a prodigous painter. “Sometimes I can crank out five pieces in a day, ” she says, and is often able to deliver custom work within a couple weeks. The Facebook page ‘Timeless Design Art Studio’ is an important portal for potential clients, displaying her works and offering a quick method to contact the artist. As her reputation grows, Lagasse has been the subject of magazine and newspaper articles, causing her 10 and 7 year old sons to remark, “Mom, you’re famous!” She shrugs off the adu-

lation, saying, “I’m not famous but I am enjoying my life. I really appreciate that people take my art seriously. ” Bouyed by recent success, Laegasse is planning a gallery show and sale in Souris in June, showcasing art from both herself and her students. She is also searching for the right space to locate a permanent gallery and studio, and is quietly looking for financial partners to make her dream a reality. “My grandfather is looking down on me right now, ” says Lagasse. “And he’s smiling, saying ‘you are living my dream’.”

Souris Rugby stars at Canada West Selection Camp by Darci Semeschuk The Canada West Women’s Rugby Selection Camp was held Shawnigan Lake from April 14 - 18. Thirty-eight athletes will be showing off their talent to the Senior Women’s Rugby coaches and staff in hopes of joining the 2017 World Cup team. Of those 38 women, three of them are well known to Souris residents. Jodi Hicks, Emily Tuttosi and Amanda Williams have all been invited to the National Selec tion Camp. Coach Brian Yon knows first hand how determined these three women are both on and off the pitch. There achievements do not surprise him. “ It doesn’t surprise me that all three girls have been invited to the National Senior Women’s West Camp, ” stated Yon from the Souris School April 15. “ The girls have proven themselves beyond the high school level playing University and underage National levels. ” Currently, Tuttosi is attending the University of Calgary where she is studying Kinesiology. She pla ys the position of hooker with the U of C Dinos. Both Williams and Hicks played with the Dinos as well, Hicks as a scrum half and Williams as a centr e. Williams is currently pursuing her masters in Occupational Therapy with the University of Alberta bu t is taking it in Calgary at a satellite campus. She plays with a women’s team in Calgary in the summer. Hicks is also pursuing her education in the medical field as well as playing rugby alongside Williams. “ All three girls are quality players and even better, they are quality people. I think they just need to go into camp and stick to their own individual strengths and just remember to work hard every minute to show the coaches they really want to push for a spot on the 2017 World Cup squad .” stated Yon when asked about the girls chances at camp. “ I’m extremely proud of Amanda, Emily and Jodie. They don’t realize it right now but they are great role models for our young players here at Souris School and they have proven with hard work and dedication that more young girls from Souris can attain the same goals as these l adies have. I sincerely wish them all the best! ” The women will train for four days where they will have the opportunity to learn and improve skills and decision-making in the mornings with the chance to show off their talent during inter-squad games in the afternoons.

Sentinel Courier Maguire meets with group regarding natural gas On March 28, a meeting was called by Larry Maguire, Brandon Souris Member of Parliament, to discuss the process of bringing natural gas into the area. A local group has been pursuing this venture for the past few years in a effort to bring an alternative form of energy to the area, which they believe would be economical enough to attract new industry and residents to the region.

The Carberry News-Express Update on the derailment in Gregg The clean up is still going on in Gregg after the 13 car derailment on March 11. The cause of the derailment is still unknown as of press time, but crews have been working pretty much around the clock to clean up the 30,000 litres of Bitumen that spilled from one of tankers.
The Redvers Optimist Act One Production delivers laughs in Alida Laughter rang through the air in Alida as Act One Productions presented their annual dinner theatre from March 11 to 14.

When blood, sweat and tears aren’t enough by Vern May Promoters lay the blame on increasingly bloodthirsty fans, citing that the ticket buyers demand more to keep them lining up at the box office. I guess sometimes the real possibility of permanent injury just isn’t enough for wrestling fans. As a result, there have been a wide slate of specialty matches developed over the past century to pique the curiosity of both the diehard and casual fans and encourage a strong turnout at the gate. During my career, I have been called upon to appear in a number of these matches - some which increase the potential for injury, some which increase the appeal of the show for enthusiasts and some which were just plain ridiculous. One of the most popular is the cage match. The cage, when used correctly, is intended to illustrate that there is such a heated dispute between two competitors that it can only be contained (for the safety of the public) inside a locked cage - where fans can be assured that anything goes, including the use of the cage in the process of the carnage. I competed in the cage ten times during my career and a few of those times, I emerged a little more damaged than when I entered. Perhaps one of the worst was a match on Vancouver Island where I found myself near the top of the structure, trying to make my way out when the poorly maintained chain link wall of the structure opened up around my leg, leaving me precariously hanging with my body over the top of the cage, my leg lodged through the cage

The School of Hard Knocks, when blood, sweat and tears are often not enough Some nights are a little rougher than others - those aren’t “blood capsules” as some believe. Vern May, in his role as Vance Nevada, fought his share of battles in the cage and in ladder matches during his 20 year career as a professional wrestler but now he says, “give me a room full of people and a podium any day, as long as I don’t have to tangle with a ladder ever again in my lifetime.” PHOTO/SUBMITTED wall and no logical means to extract myself from the situation without risking serious injury. I could appreciate the appeal of the cage but they were some rough matches. The worst though were the ladder matches. In the ladder match, the sought after prize - usually a championship belt - is suspended from the ceiling and both competitors work to batter the other and then scramble first up the ladder to retrieve the treasure. Of course, there are some close calls which add to the drama of the situation. In short, one can expect to be intercepted and thrown, flipped, dropkicked or unceremoniously dumped from the ladder at some point or another throughout the contest. If
anyone ever wondered ‘does that hurt’, I’d suggest that maybe they climb a ladder in their garage and have a friend push it away from under them and see what happens. You can’t fake gravity. “Fans you don’t want to miss this one. Tonight, for one night only, two wrestlers will be chained together at the wrist, whoever is left standing, claims the glory.” Chains, leather straps, tables, chairs, coal miner’s gloves, barbed wire, a metal bus stop sign ... these are just a few of the objects that have sometimes come into play in the interest of entertainment. For me, nothing was more effective in selling “wrestling” than a good old-fashioned headlock but maybe

I’m a little old-fashioned like that. I’ve lost count of all of the different specialty matches that I’ve been advertised to appear in. But what those experiences taught me were that sometimes in business, you need to be adaptable to ensure that you are keeping pace with the needs of your clients. That can mean stepping outside your comfort zone, that may mean tackling new challenges and learning new skills - both in your approach and your escape. Some people experience anxiety at the thought of public speaking ... give me a room full of people and a podium any day, as long as I don’t have to tangle with a ladder ever again in my lifetime.

Library Corner By Alexis MacLean
We have another group of new books here at the Library. Today, I’ll men tion some of those we have for our younger readers and some of the romances. Next week I will detail some of the thrillers and mysteries. For our younger read ers there is Aqualicious, by Victoria Kann, the tale of how Pinkalicious and her brother find a mermaid tucked inside a shell and promise to help her find her way back home. Big Nate Lives It Up and Big Nate: Say Good-bye to Dork City, both by Lincoln Pierce, follow the exploits of Nate Wright - aged 11, four and a half feet tall, with jet black, spiked hair as he tries to be super cool, without landing in any more trouble at school. Public School Superhero, by James Patterson, is the story of middle schooler Kenny Wright, a bright boy and chess player frequently targeted by bullies. Featuring more than 150 pieces of line art, this is a humourous yet poign ant look life in middle school. Bookweird, Bookweirder and Bookweirdest, all by
Paul Glennon, all follow a common theme - a boy ends up experiencing many adventures as he quite literally is drawn into the stories he is reading about. We also have an exciting new series of fictionalized history. Called the I Am Canada series, each book takes an event in Canadian history and explores this by presenting a fictional young person as one of the story’s main char acters. In this way we are taken through the War of 1812, the Franklin Expedition, the building of the Transcontinental rail road, the voyage of the Titanic, WWI, Dieppe, the siege of Hong Kong and WWII in occupied France. It is a wonderful way to introduce young people to our history. Historically accurate yet with all the allure of pure fiction, I suspect more than a few adults might also enjoy some of the volumes! For the romantics among you, we have a number of new books. From Lauraine Snelling comes A Harvest of Hope and To Everything a Season. Both follow Miriam Hastings and Trygve Knutson as Miriam trains to become a nurse, falls in love with Trygve, and then

has to leave him due to a family emergency. Will Miriam give up her training to return to Blessing and Trygve? In Love Letters, by Beverly Lewis, Marlena Wenger has to leave her home and beau to care for her estranged sister’s baby. Totally out of her ele ment, the story follows Marlena as she tries to do her best while yet keeping her eye fixed firmly on her future. The Vintage Wedding by Katie Fforde, finds three very different women starting up a new busi ness - designing vintage weddings. Work soon becomes almost too suc cessful as the three try to find some way to bal ance work with their own hopes for romance and family. And finally, My Heart Stood Still is the latest offering from Lori Copeland. Three sisters, as crooked as they are beautiful, are suddenly ‘freed’ when the wagon carrying them off to jail comes under attack. Each girl is ‘lib erated’ by a different man. For some, it is hatred at first sight but they will have to some how work together to escape pursuers. Hours: Closed Sunday and Monday; Tuesday, 12:00 p.m. 6:00 p.m., 7:00 p.m. 9:00 p.m.; Wednesday, 11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.; Thursday and Friday, 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.; Saturday, 10:00 a.m. 3:00 p.m.

Highlighted calls for service in Souris RCMP area were as follows: Found items: In two separate incidences, a bank card and a cell phone were turned in to Police. The bank card has been returned to its rightful owner, however the cell phone is still in police custody. If you have lost a cell phone in Souris recently, please contact Police to identify. Three different youth were reported missing, located and returned home. Souris RCMP investigated a report of a suspicious vehicle parked for 12 days on a Souris Street. Vehicle was not stolen but belonged to a Souris resident. A Souris resident called in a complaint of mischief, reporting that her attic window was found on her porch. The complainant believed it was vandalism. Police attended and observed that the frame supporting the window was rotted and concluded that it was likely that it just fell out. The complainant believed this to be a plausible explanation and the file was concluded. Police would like to remind people to refrain from driving quads/ATV’s in Town.

Investors can learn from Earth Day’s lessons On April 22, we observe Earth Day. First celebrated in 1970, Earth Day has grown into an international movement with the goal of raising awareness of the need to foster a healthy, sustainable environment. You can do your part through recycling and other measures, but you can also apply some of the lessons of Earth Day to your financial situation - and, in particular, to your approach to investing. Give these ideas some thought: • Make the most of your existing resourcesOne of the most valuable lessons of Earth Day deals with the need to be responsible managers of the natural resources we have available. As an investor, it’s important to maximize the benefits of the resources to which you have access. For example, are you contributing as much as you can afford to your RRSP or TFSA? At the very least, you should put in enough to earn your employer’s matching program, if one is offered. • Take advantage of a favourable environment Underlying all Earth Day activities is the goal of creating a healthy environment in which to live. You may also benefit from a positive investment environment - and that’s what we appear to be experiencing, at least in terms of low interest rates, low inflation and the steady condition of the financial market. So in this favourable atmosphere, look for those investment opportunities that are appropriate for your situation. • Don’t over-consume Excess consumption has played a big role in causing some of the environmental issues we face. Consequently, many Earth Day programs teach us to get by with less, or at least to avoid acquiring more than we need. To translate this philosophy into your investment habits, take a close look at the number of trades you make. Are you constantly selling old investments and buying new ones in the hopes of capturing higher returns? This type of trading can result in significant fees and transaction costs - and possibly higher taxes, too. Perhaps just as importantly, this constant activity, with all its starts and stops, may detract from your ability to follow a long-term, consistent investment strategy. • Avoid “toxic” investment moves - The motivation to create Earth Day
was developed, in part, by the growing awareness that industrial toxins were affecting our air and water. And you can find many toxic investment moves, too. To illustrate, many people chase after “hot” stocks after hearing about them from friends or relatives, or seeing them touted by so-called experts in the media. But by the time these people acquire the hot stocks, the stocks may already have cooled off. Furthermore,
these stocks may not have been appropriate for these investors in the first place. Another potentially “toxic” investment move is to try to time the market - that is, try to buy investments when prices are low and sell when they’re high. In theory, this is a good way to invest; in practice, it’s almost impossible to predict market highs and lows. Instead, consider buying quality investments and holding them for the long
term, or at least until your needs change. By following these Earth Day-related suggestions, you can help yourself make progress toward a healthier, and possibly more productive, investment environment. And that’s worth celebrating more than once a year. This article was written by Edward Jones for use by your local Edward Jones Financial Advisor. Member - Canadian Investor Protection Fund

OBITUARY VACHON Jean (John) Louis, May 18, 1940 - April 8, 2015 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear husband, father, grandfather and brother on Wednesday, April 8, 2015 at Souris Hospital. Jean passed away peacefully with family by his side after a courageous battle with cancer. Jean devoted his entire life to God, family and the farm. His focus on these three elements formed the man he became. As a young child, Jeanʼs devotion began with his mother and fatherʼs faith in God, attending a small one-room Hesselwood country school, and working on the family farm. After completing school to Grade 8, Jean continued to work with his father south of Oak Lake until he later married Anita (Desrochers) and purchased the family farm in 1962. Jeanʼs devotion enabled him to enjoy and endure all the good and bad that life had to offer. During this time he had four boys (Louis, Paul, Daniel and Guy). Jean and Anita loved the family farm life, to see their children grow and to be able to all work together. His ability to keep everyone involved with hard work and actually like it is very impressive. Jean enjoyed family and community gatherings, dancing, good food, drink, and a good joke. He was known for the laughter he shared with others through his generous and giving nature. Unfortunately, life can throw its misfortunes. In 1997, Anita passed away with cancer, devastating the family unit. With the help of his faith in God, the support of all his family and friends and the farm to keep him busy, Jean was able to cope and move on. Life can also bring good. Jean could not see himself alone so started to venture from the farm to find new friends. In 2002, Jean married Marie Roy who came with her three children (Lucien, Suzanne and Maurice) and their children. Jean and Marie started their new life in Brandon. At this point, Jean slowed up his time on the farm to do more dancing, travelling and be with family. Jeanʼs devotion to God, family and the farm allowed him to become a loving husband, father and friend. This devotion even prepared him for the final chapter of his life, cancer. Despite his battle with cancer, he maintained a positive attitude and embraced the opportunity to prepare himself, his family and his friends. Jean made it very clear to everyone that he was happy with the life he was given. Thank you Papa. Jean is survived by his beloved wife Marie Roy (née Lussier), his four sons Louis (Sherri) of Oak Lake, Paul (Jeanne) of Oak Lake, Daniel (Tammy) of Ile des Chênes and Guy (Johanne) of Winnipeg, step-son Lucien (Ginette) of Winnipeg, step-daughter Suzanne (Roberto) of Winnipeg and step-son Maurice (Corry) of Macdowall, SK, who all meant the world to him. He was a proud father and grandfather. His 24 grandchildren were the joy of his life: Janelle, Albert, Natalie and Marc, David, Nicholas, Alicia, Adrian and Émilie, Anita, Michael, Nadine and Julie, Jeremy, Devon and Kyle, Chantal and Rachelle (Roy), Kalene Roy (Devin Jackson) and Jesse (Roy), Matthew and Josee (Trzaskowski-Roy) and Kode and Leesha (Sinclair). He will be lovingly remembered by his 8 sisters Alice (Alarie), Thérèse Vachon, S.G.M., Jeanne (Côme) Fillion, Irène (Arthur) Boulet, Annette (Roger) Blaise, Cécile (Marcel) Bourgouin, Marie-Ange (Léon) Ricard and Helene (Jim) Ross and three brothers Eugène (Dolorès), Gérard (Diane) and Marcel (Aline). He is also survived by his mother-in-law Gemma Stevens, sisters-in-law Yvonne Seewald and Emelie Lavallee and brother-in-law Louis Lussier, as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Jean was predeceased by his first wife Anita (Desrochers), father and mother Albert and Bernadette (Labelle), brothers Louis and Denis, sister-in-law Marie (Grisé) Vachon, brothers-in-law Gérald Desrochers, Emilien Alarie, and Paul Seewald, fathers-in-law Albert Desrochers and John Stevens, mother-in-law Beatrice (Boulet) Desrochers, daughter-in-law Sheryl-Lynn (Robbins) Vachon. Prayers will be held at the Brockie Donovan Chapel, 332-8th Street, Brandon, on Friday, April 17, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. Mass of Christian Burial will be held at St. Augustineʼs Roman Catholic Church, 327-4th Street, Brandon, on Saturday, April 18, 2015. Viewing will take place between 10:15 to 10:50 a.m. Service will begin at 11:00 a.m. with Fr. Michael Raj Savarimuthu as Celebrant. Wheelchair accessibility for ceremony and reception available. Active and honorary pallbearers will be Louis, Paul, Guy, Lucien, Maurice, and Daniel. Interment will follow later at the Oak Lake Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please consider donations to one of the following: Canadian Cancer Society, 415-1st Street, Brandon, MB R7A 2W8; Oak Lake Cemetery, Box 192, Oak Lake, MB R0M 1P0 or to St. Augustineʼs Roman Catholic Church, 327-4th Street, Brandon, MB R7A 3H1. Thank you to Dr. David Cram and the nursing staff at Souris Hospital and Brandon Palliative and Home Care personnel for all their support and help in making Jeanʼs last days as comfortable as possible.

Filly Health & Fitness by Jonathan Filewich
Jonathan Filewich is a Souris based personal trainer and holds a degree in Physical Education. Can stress be a good thing? The answer can and should be yes. The hardest part of any program is the beginning. Your body is not used to training and sometimes you can barely walk
after the first workout. Each step reminds you of the tough leg workout you did the day before. This is known as Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS), and it happens to EVERYONE. Physical stress on your body can be a good thing when done properly and to the right extent. As you train over time, your body will begin to adapt and you will feel less DOMS. When you no longer feel any soreness, your body has become conditioned to that particular set
of exercises and your body is in a state of homeostasis. Homeostasis describes when your body is in balance, you are not losing muscle but you are not gaining muscle either. This is when you know it is time to switch up your workout by changing the exercises or the amount of weight or repetitions you do. You need to push outside of this comfort zone and challenge your body to feel physical stress again. Remember, this physical stress is only positive when used in modera-

tion. We never want you to go too far or too fast because there is an increased risk of injury. Rather than go on and on about the scientific aspect of stress as it relates to homeostasis, I will answer three frequently asked questions in this area: 1) What is the right amount of training for my son or daughter? For younger athletes it isn’t about physical stress but rather proper development. In the 12 - 15 developmental age range, the athletes need to be focused on learning the proper mechanics of exercises. As they get older, they will need to start increasing physical stress otherwise they will get in a comfort zone and they will not actually progress. 2) How often should my son or daughter see a strength coach? This is one of the hardest questions because it has financial implications. Before I even answer it, you need to know Outperforme Athletics was developed to serve the athletes. We continue with that belief to this day. In a perfect world, we would have as many contact hours as possible in the beginning to not only help develop, but to motivate and encourage our athletes so they can push themselves on their own when they get older. Please keep in mind that not every session is with

heart rate monitors to get results on how hard an athlete is working. This technology can give us a fairly accurate heart rate reading, but it is still difficult to determine exactly how hard an athlete is actually pushing themselves. When the athlete is young, they need to learn what hard work is. Very rarely has an athlete ever experienced stress and are scared of the unknown. I will always remember what my first strength coach, Ian G a l l a g h e r (mobile.nytimes.com/2014/ 01/30/sports/hockey/trainerfinds-himself-on-both-sidesof-canadiens-bruinsrivalry.html?referrer=) told me when I was a teenager a true athlete does every single repetition even when the strength coach isn’t watching. Ian, if and when you read this, I still have nightmares of dumbbell walking lunges at Eastglen School in Edmonton. I was determined to do every single thing he asked, even when it hurt mentally and physically because I trusted his abilities and I wanted to see how far I could push myself as an athlete. Stress is a good thing when it is used scientifically. For example, repetitions are much higher in a muscular endurance workout than a power workout. The purpose of a muscular endurance workout is to raise your heart rate and work your muscles for an extended period of time. In contrast, a power workout is usually completed near the end of your training periodization schedule and often uses higher resistance for fewer repetitions. As an athlete you need to know what muscles you are training, why you are training them, and what it should feel like. A strength coach can help you create a specialized program, but only you will know when it feels right. Each individual must work to find that perfect balance of positive physical stress and comfort so they can push themselves accordingly and gain confidence for training independently.

McKay. Tina outdid everyone by making her second yelp on the Looney Number, which gave her an extra $47. The Little House was worth $30 and was won by Cindy Balbar. Our meat draw of Friday, April 10, was a busy evening and the lucky tickets were well spread over the Clubroom. Only Grant Ewen managed to take
home two meat packages. The 50-50 draw amounted to $87 and the lucky number was held by Viola Logan. Danny Belbas had an opportunity to take home $3,279.50 by locating the Ace of Spades.

Commercial solvents are available in home hardware REPAIR YOUR RV BEFORE SPRING RUSH! WE SELL RVS ON CONSIGNMENT • WE RENT RVS stores. Another option is to pour boiling water over the glue to soften it and then scrape with a razor blade.

Your best solution is to grind the COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL glue off with a grinder or a rotary wire brush on a drill. Dear Reena, FLAT AND SLOPED My family loves raspberries, they are healthy and delicious. Is it important to wash raspberries before eating them? ROOF SYSTEMS Esther SIDING, FLASHING AND Dear Esther, EAVESTROUGHS Raspberries are one of life’s special gifts to us! They are high in Vitamin C and A, iron, potassium, calcium, folic acid MAINTENANCE and ellagic acid. They contain no fat, cholesterol or sodium and if that isn’t enough, they are high in fibre. While some peoPROGRAMS ple oppose the practice of washing raspberry because they are such delicate little creatures, the majority of experts agree 24 HOUR EMERGENCY TOTAL ROOF MANAGEMENT that giving raspberries a water rinse just prior to consumption is a great idea. Extra Tip: If you are planning to freeze raspberries; rinse them with cold water and pat dry. Place them on a cookie 1625 PARKER BLVD.

Great for ice cream toppings, jam or Smoothies. Dear Reena, Which is better for making cupcakes, foil or paper muffin liners? Thanks. Deacon Dear Deacon, Foil liners are sturdy and easy to peel. You can set foil cups directly onto a baking sheet and you don’t need to use a muffin tray. This is handy, especially if you are baking several cupcakes. If money is an issue, paper liners often cost less and are just as good as long as you secure them in a muffin tray. Smart Tips of the Week: • I discovered an easy way to remove wallpaper from the wall. Fill a spray bottle about three quarter full of liquid fabric softener for your washing machine. Fill remainder with hot water and just spray on the walls. Leave for about 5-7 minutes, pull at edge and voila, off it comes! The glue can then just be washed away with a very mild solution of dish soap. Submitted by Mary • I often purchase watermelon and offer it to my guests. One lovely way to display watermelon is to shape it into balls using a melon baller. Alternate pieces of mint with watermelon balls on a wooden skewer (looks better than cubes). Strawberries, kiwi and pineapple also look nice and make great fruit kebobs.

New crematorium set to open by Glen Kirby The owner of a new crematorium opening on the outskirts of Souris says his neighbours are supportive and he believes any controversy about the operation has been defused. “Some people did approach the RM (former Rural Municipality of Glenwood) with concerns when they first heard about it,” says Richard Gordon. “I phoned them and met with them before we went to the RM for approval and explained that this type of operation takes a lot of paperwork and a lot of regulations.” Gordon has been working on the project since July 2014 and expects to be open within a month in a new building adjacent to the Souris-Glenwood Cemetery, one kilometre north of town on Highway 250. “We knew it would take a while to get all the necessary approvals,” says Gordon. “But there have been some unforeseen delays in getting hydro and natural gas to the site.” In addition to the utilities inspections, Gordon must obtain environmental approvals from the province of Manitoba and an operating license from the Funeral Board of Manitoba. Funeral Board Administrator Denise Carriere says Gordon will be granted a license once Manitoba Conservation
determines the emissions from the cremation chamber, called a retort, are within operating guidelines. Gordon’s retort was built in Florida and he will be travelling there within the next few weeks for training, although he is no stranger to the business. “I ran the crematorium at Rosewood Memorial in Brandon from 1996 until 2009,” says Price. His father, also Richard Gordon, worked in the funeral business from 1960-1981 and purchased Rosewood Memorial Chapel and Gardens in 1967. With cremations more popular today than traditional burials, and the nearest crematoriums located in Brandon and Minnedosa, Gordon had been looking for the opportunity to start-up a service in Souris. “When the property next to the cemetery became available, it fit right in,” he says, adding the cost of getting the business up and running will be “in the high six figures.” Former RM Councillor Leslie Chudley supported Gordon’s rezoning request last fall and says any new business in the community is welcome. “It’s good to have different types of businesses,” says Chudley. “It’s a suitable location and he did a lot of preliminary work before asking for the rezon-
New crematorium for Souris A new crematorium in Souris is slated to open sometime in May.

ing.” “I have letters of support from nearby residents,” says Gordon. In anticipation of the amalgamation between the RM of Glenwood and the Town of Souris late last year, Gordon says he also obtained support from Town Councillors. The Funeral Board currently lists 17 crematoriums in Manitoba and Carriere says it’s often that a new retort comes into operation even though the number of cremations performed has been steadily climbing. She says cremations are a costeffective alternative to a funeral and continue to gain in popularity as funeral plot space becomes an issue in many communities. Gordon says he is working part-time with Kowalchuk’s Funeral Home and believes area residents will appreciate the opportunity to use local cremation services. An open house is planned in May for interested residents to tour the new operation.
