Colours of the Holiday Train

The brightly-lit rail cars of the CPKC Holiday Train arrived at Weyburn on December 18 during a winter storm, bringing live performers and donations to the Salvation Army’s food bank.

Fundraiser proceeds delivered to Weyburn couple

A sealed box filled with cheques and cash donations was delivered to Fred and Teresa Sandeski at Fred’s room in the Weyburn Special Care Home on Dec. 18.

The box had been filled at a fundraiser event organized by Johnny Knox at the Weyburn Legion on Dec. 13, and Knox brought the unopened box to the couple, noting even just the day before people were still dropping off cheques for him to bring.

“You have no idea how much this really means to us,” said Fred, visibly moved as he was given the box, as he sat on his bed in the respite room, joined by his wife Teresa in her motorized wheelchair. “This is incredible.”

Fred added that what concerns him is how many other people are in similar situations but have no idea who to turn to for help, or where to call, and said residents need to stand up and make their voices heard.

Fred and Teresa were put into a situation where she was going to go in for a surgery, but was the sole care-giver for Fred, who has COPD issues and vision impairment, among other health issues.

He had been able to stay for a month at the Special Care Home, but at the end of that month was told he would then have to pay $45 a day for continued care, and the Sandeskis reached out for help as they did not have the money for the care.

“The thing that saddens me is, we shouldn’t have to depend on the community to take care of us,” said Teresa. “But I know, they love us. We’ve been here and we continue to be here.”

She noted that as the founder of the Community Low Income Centre in Weyburn, Fred worked hard to advocate for people for 20 years, helping people get housing or to get benefits from Workmen’s Compensation, or to navigate government ministries for assistance.

“It just seems so sad.

Couple receives fundraiser proceeds

Fundraiser organizer Johnny Knox delivered this sealed box of monetary donations to Fred and Teresa Sandeski, at Fred’s respite care room at the Weyburn Special Care Home on December 18.

The government has blinders on. What is it going to take? Is it going to take one of their family members?” Teresa asked, noting they had their plight made known by an MLA from Saska -

Szczecinski, plus a silent auction, which raised about $1,400.

Presenting the sealed box to the couple, Knox said, “I hope it helps. Let me continue to think of things we can do.”

He noted he has been seeing Fred around the community and reading about the work he had been doing at CLIC for many years.

Teresa noted that a woman came by offering to pay for Fred’s respite stay for a month, and the lady was referred to billing at Tatagwa View, and the payment offer was not accepted because they didn’t know how many days he would be needing the respite care.

“It’s ridiculous,” said Fred, shaking his head.

toon, seniors critic Keith Jorgenson of the NDP. Knox told the couple it took him eight days to put the fundraiser together, but once he got word out through social media that he was organizing this event, he received all kinds of messages and texts as people wanted to help out.

The event featured Knox and his band, Assorted Nuts, with a couple of guests, including singer Mandy

“This is the fight that we’ve had. I’m so exhausted, and I still haven’t felt that good,” said Teresa, noting she had just had surgery recently. In checking up on her, her doctor told her she needs to take of herself, as well as of her husband.

COMMUNITY

Weyburn OTS donates to food bank

Representatives of the Weyburn OTS were on hand to present a donation of $5,000 to Nicole Strickland of the Weyburn Salvation Army, during the Weyburn stop of the CPKC Holiday Train.

CPKC employees donate to Salvation Army

Representatives of the CPKC Railway employees presented a donation of $5,500 to Nicole Strickland of the Salvation Army, for the food bank, during the Holiday Train stop in Weyburn on Dec. 18. The Salvation Army also accepted donations of food at the location, but the blizzard conditions prevented a lot of people from attending the event.

Weyburn area groups receive Community Initiatives grants

Fifty-eight Saskatchewan communities will experience a boost as the Community Initiatives Fund (CIF) allocates $2,902,885 to organizations throughout the province. These grants empower innovative local initiatives that promote vibrant community development and enhance the quality of life for residents. With a focus on responsiveness and creativity, this funding goes to projects that address local needs and foster collaboration, driving positive change across Saskatchewan.

In Weyburn, grant recipients include the Family Place, which receives $30,000 for their MiniGo preschool program; Southeast Cornerstone School Division, which receives $3,600 for a mo-

bile Indigenous Storytelling program; and the Little Discoveries Early Learning Co-operative, which receives $720 for the “Everyone Can Dance” program.

healthy lifestyles, the work they do enhances the quality of life for everyone in Saskatchewan.” Through the Community Grant Program, the Community Initiatives Fund (CIF) approved 165 grants aimed at enhancing the wellbeing of children, youth, families, and communities. These funded programs provide essential knowledge and skills that

promote positive mental health, self-esteem, and healthy lifestyle choices for children and youth, while also ensuring families have access to necessary resources to nurture supportive environments. Additionally, funding is allocated to strengthen nonprofit organizations in areas like program delivery, governance, and volunteer engagement.

“The supports and services that these programs provide are integral for the health and happiness of our province,” expressed Tracey Mann, Executive Director of the Community Initiatives Fund. “We acknowledge the dedication and skills of the hardworking staff and volunteers who make these vital programs possible, ensuring that our communities

thrive and the quality of life for residents continues to improve.”

The CIF is a Special Purpose Fund created through The Lotteries and Gaming Saskatchewan Corporation Act and managed by a government appointed Board of community volunteers. It is funded through a portion of the net profits from Casino’s Regina and Moose Jaw.

Lieutenant Governor’s Christmas message

Hello! Bonjour! Tansi!

Happy Holidays!

This season of celebration and goodwill is also a time for reflection. As the festive season arrives, 2024 is on its way out, and it has been an eventful year.

Representing our Sovereign is an extraordinary privilege. As Donna and I have travelled throughout our beautiful province, in addition to enjoying the magnificent forests, lakes and rivers of the north, and the grasslands and rolling hills of the south - we have experienced the kindness and strength of the people of Saskatchewan.

I would like to thank every community and organization that has invited us to attend a tea, banquet,

concert, pow wow, festival, parade - whatever the event - we have enjoyed it! We are truly grateful for the heartwarming welcome we received everywhere we visited. It has been a wonderful gift to attend such a wide range of events and to meet so many people.

None of those special occasions would have been possible without tremendous community support and committed volunteers. In Saskatchewan we can be proud of the quantity and quality of our volunteers.

Thank you to everyone who donates their time, talents and funds to food banks, shelters, charities, service groups and wherever there is need. Giving reflects the true spirit of the holidays.

For many of us everything is “merry and bright” as we make memories with our loved ones, but what is a joyous time for some, can be lonely for others. I applaud all of you who look out for your neighbours and offer a helping hand.

One of the most fulfilling parts of my role is acknowledging those who make significant contributions in their communities. It is particularly gratifying to reward the sacrifice and service of our emergency personnel, through Exemplary Service Medals and other awards.

Last year, on May 6th, our new monarch was crowned at Westminster Abbey. This May, on the one-year anniversary of the coronation, the King Charles the Third Coronation Medal program was launched. This national program honours Canadians for their exceptional contributions and accomplishments. It has been a great pleasure to present Coronation Medals to outstanding recipients from right here in our province.

Another highlight this year was hosting our largest public event - the annual Canada Day Celebration. Once again thousands of people joined us on the grounds of Government House for a fun-filled afternoon featuring multi-

cultural entertainment.

I invite you and yours to our next major occasion - the 2025 Lieutenant Governor’s New Year’s Day Levee on January first from 1 to 4 p.m. Join us to celebrate in Government House, all decked out in Yuletide splendour! As 2024 comes to a close, I would like to thank the dedicated team at the Lieutenant Governor’s Office. As well, I would not be able to do my work without the constant support of my wife Donna and our family.

In closing, I am pleased to extend seasons greetings on behalf of His Majesty, King Charles the Third, King of Canada, and to share greetings with you in my first language of Woodland Cree.

Nitha ikwa Donna ni-cawasimisinanak, nosisiminanak.

Nipakosithitinan kahkithaw Kita mitho makosikisikanisik ekwa kita mitho ocimikisikansik.

On behalf of my family and staff, I wish you health, happiness and prosperity throughout the holidays and into the new year. Joyeux Noël! Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

Lietenant Governor Russ Mirasty

EDITORIAL

TIME TO MAKE REALISTIC RESOLUTIONS

Another year will come to an end in a few short days. For many in our community, the first day of the new year became the traditional occasion for thinking about one’s past mistakes and resolving to do and be better in the future. It is important that if you are one to make resolutions that it is something attainable, instead of an unrealistic goal.

For those who might not be aware, January was named for the two-faced Roman god, Janus, who looks forward to new beginnings as well as backward for reflection and resolution.

The tradition of making resolutions was first done by ancient the Babylonians who celebrated the New Year during a 12-day festival called Akitu (starting with the vernal equinox). This started the farming season to plant crops, crown their king, and make promises to pay their debts.

The Babylonian New Year was adopted by the ancient Romans, as was the tradition of resolutions. The timing, however, eventually shifted with the Julian calendar. With January now the first month, Romans would offer sacrifices to Janus and make promises of good behavior for the year ahead.

Things have changed drastically, and no one is expecting sacrifices anymore. Of course, the purpose of these resolutions have also changed, as they are now a reflection of status, financial wealth, responsibility, and self-discipline.

The best advice to give others is to make

several small goals to a larger year-end resolution. It is a lot easier to celebrate achieving small steps along the way, and gives you motivation to keep working to achieving the larger goal in mind.

It is also important to reflect on past resolutions, and evaluate why those goals were either possible to achieve, or if you had set the bar too high and abandoned the resolution. There is nothing wrong with changing your resolution either, especially if you realize that your expectations were too high when compared to realizations.

The important thing is that when you are making a resolution it is something that will truly improve your own life, or empower you. If you are taking a common resolution, personalize it for your life, and you will have a much better chance of achieving it.

If you need some inspiration to make your New Year’s Eve a little different than the past, consider including some traditions from different countries around the world.

In Brazil, it is tradition to go to the beach, and after midnight to go into the ocean and jump seven waves while making seven wishes. This tradition pays tribute to Yemanja, the goddess of water.

In Italy, New Year’s resolutions are called buoni propositi, or good intentions. Some Italians have luck-bringing traditions, like eating fatty pork to fatten their wallet, or eating black-eyed peas for good fortune.

The Chinese New Year is a massive two-week festival that starts on the first full moon of the Lunar calendar, typically between January 21 and February 20. Traditions during the Lantern Festival include giving red envelopes with money and holding reunion dinners with family.

In Spain, they will kick-start their new year by eating 12 grapes exactly at the stroke of midnight. The trick is to finish all 12 grapes by the 12th chime of the clock to have a prosperous new year. (One could combine a little of the Brazil and Spain tradition, water and grapes make wine).

If you are celebrating New Year’s Eve by indulging in alcohol or other legal drugs, do make sure that you have planned for a safe ride home and do not get behind the wheel of a vehicle while inebriated.

As we reflect on the past year, there might be some moments of regret or sadness, especially for those who have lost someone close to them. It is important to try to focus on the good things in your life at the same time, and take the time to focus on that positivity as we embark into a new year.

There are many local individuals who take the time to have Memory Jars, where they put little notes of special memories or events that happened during the year, and then celebrate those events by opening the jar on New Year’s Eve. It is a creative and fun way of celebrating the small moments that happened, and remind yourself of the good in your life.

Signs you are an introvert

Introversion and extroversion occur on a continuum. Most people fall somewhere closer to the middle but lean slightly more one way or the other. Here are some signs you’re an introvert:

1. Being around crowds or large groups drains your energy. If you feel exhausted after a party, concert, or a group outing and need quiet time to yourself to recuperate, you might be an introvert. Introverts expend energy in social situations, while extroverts gain energy from interactions with others.

2. You have a small group of friends. If you love spending oneon-one time with others and prefer small groups, you might be an introvert. Introverts usually have a small circle of close friends, while extroverts often have a larger social circle of friends and ac -

quaintances, many of whom they only interact with on a superficial level.

3. You enjoy spending time alone. If a few hours alone with a good book or a solo nature walk is your idea of a good time, you’re in good company with other introverts.

4. You prefer working alone. If the thought of collaborating with others or working on group projects overwhelms you, you might be an introvert. This doesn’t mean you don’t work well with others. Introverts just prefer to work independently most of the time.

5. You find yourself daydreaming a lot. Introverts spend a lot of time in their heads. They have a very active inner mind and like to plan and prepare before taking action. They also gravitate toward self-reflection and research.

Playing Christmas bingo

A group of Grade 2 students watched their cards for potential places to mark, during a game of Christmas bingo. Both Grade 2 classrooms at St. Michael School had a number of stations set up with Christmas-themed games and acitivities.

I wish you and your family a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from everyone here at the Saskatchewan NDP caucus. Now, no matter how you celebrate this holiday season, I do hope you get to spend time with your loved ones and those close friends. As 2024 comes to an end, like many of you, this is my very favorite time of the year. What makes it special to me are the traditions that we’ve built, and that we look forward to every year. Our family will be heading

More Saskatchewan women will be able to access breast cancer screening starting January 1st as an important step in cancer early detection. Starting January 1, women between the ages of 47 to 49 will be eligible for a screening mammogram. A healthcare provider’s referral is not needed to book an appointment.

The current breast screening eligibility ages are 50 to 74 but will be gradually lowered as part of a phased approach over the next 18 months to include ages 40 to 49. The next phase will begin on June 1, 2025, when breast screening will be open to women between the ages of 45 to 47.

A breast screening mammogram is a low dose x-ray of the breast that plays an important role in finding breast cancer early. Most

This really is a season of hope, of generosity and a season of gratitude. And it’s a season that reminds us of what we should all strive for all year long. I do want to take a moment to pay special recognition to those

healthy women should have a screening mammogram every two years. To be eligible, women must be the appropriate age, and:

• have no breast symptoms, such as lumps, discharge, or skin changes;

• not have breast implants;

• not in active follow-up for breast cancer; and

• have been cancer free for five years.

Women who are the eligible age can book a mammogram at any of the eight screening locations in Saskatchewan. To book an appointment, or for more information on mammogram wait times, hours of operation and to find the nearest location, call 1-855584-8228 toll free.

Another screening option is the Mobile Mammography Unit, which visits locations in rural and remote northern Saskatchewan

front-line workers who will continue to work right through the holidays. Those who have dedicated themselves to public service. I know that they’ll be sacrificing time with their own families this holiday season to keep us all safe. And I want to say thank you for all you do. Oh, this is the year that has flown by. Blink of an eye. But it really has been incredible on so many fronts over the last few months.

I’ve had the absolute privilege of traveling right across this province, and

every year, including in Weyburn. The mobile mammography bus will be in Weyburn from Jan. 6 to Feb. 14, 2025, weekdays only.

“We remain committed to ensuring Saskatchewan women have access to safe, high quality and timely breast care,” said Jeremy Cockrill, Minister of Health. “By lowering the age for breast cancer screening, we are taking a proactive step to ensure earlier detection, which has been proven to save lives through more effective treatment options.”

Approximately 75 per cent of breast cancers diagnosed through the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency’s Screening Program for Breast Cancer are early stage. Screening mammograms are for healthy women, while diagnostic mammograms are for women who have breast

Faith... Hope... Love!

In a world that seems ever more chaotic, these are the things that we should seek... first in ourselves... and in others.

Faith in the people around us... faith that the people we encounter are fundamentally good.

I know we are all so very busy this holiday season, but let us all take a minute, and pause to see the good in those that we meet.

Let us have faith that by helping others we can make a positive difference... in our own lives... in their lives, or in our communities.

Hope...

Hope for the people around us...

Hope for a more peaceful world...

Hope for a bright future for our neighbours... for our coworkers... and for our children... and grandchildren.

And love...

Love for... yes... our family and friends... but also for those who are struggling and need a helping hand.

Showing that love doesn’t require grand gestures...

It can be small acts of kindness...

Take a meal to a neighbour that you know is alone this Christmas season...

Stop to help push someone’s car that is stuck in the

Moe

snow...

Donate toys to a local charity so a child can have a happy Christmas... It was love that sent Jesus to us as a baby... the reason that we celebrate Christmas.

It is that love shown to us that allows us to have faith and hope for a bright future.

As we gather with friends and family this Christmas season, let us focus on these...

Faith... Hope... Love.

From my wife, Krista, and myself... and from our family to yours...

We wish you a very merry Christmas... and bright, hopeful new year.

while I’ve always been very proud to call Saskatchewan home, I find myself filled with an even deeper admiration and respect for the hard working people right across this province.

People in Saskatchewan are kind, we’re known for taking care of each other and for getting things done. And I think that’s never more true than during the holiday season. This really is a season of giving. So with that in mind, I encourage all of you to do what you can to donate to a local food bank, shovel your

Women who experience breast symptoms or concerns at any age, or who would like to know more about their individual risk for breast cancer, should speak with a healthcare provider, or go to a walk-in clinic to discuss next steps.

“With regular screening mammograms, changes in the breast can be detected even when they are too small for your healthcare provider to feel or see,” said Karen Efthimiou, Vice President of Population Health, Quality and Research, Saskatchewan Cancer Agency. “Early detection can and has saved lives—it can allow for more effective treatment options and better outcomes for Saskatchewan women.”

Expanding the breast eligibility age to 40 will increase the eligible population by approximately 76,000 women.

Let’s really come together this holiday season and give back to a community that has given us so much in 2024. Now we know that there are people for whom the holidays can be a struggle, and if we can all help out where we can, a little goes a long way. Remember, our provincial model is from many people’s strength and Saskatchewan has always been stronger together.

As we look forward to

The Saskatchewan Cancer Agency, the Saskatchewan Health Authority and the Ministry of Health have been actively planning for the increased demand for breast screening mammograms including capacity, to ensure a smooth and efficient implementation.

“The Saskatchewan Health Authority is committed to improving breast health services throughout the province. Screening mammography helps to identify disease prior to an individual noticing any symptoms. As a physician referral is not required for a screening exam, lowering the age of eligibility provides women with the opportunity to make a personal choice about their health,” said Bryan Witt, Vice President Provincial Clinical and Support Services, Saskatchewan Health Authority.

The Cancer Foundation

the new year in 2025, we know there’s still more work to do, but we also know that we can build something better. And I truly believe this because I’ve seen what’s possible when Saskatchewan people come together and I’m more hopeful than I ever have been before. And that hope feels good. So, no matter where you live, who’s at your table from all of us at the Saskatchewan NDP caucus, from our families to yours, I wish you a very merry Christmas and all the best in 2025.

of Saskatchewan has already committed the funding to support the purchase of an additional digital mammography machine in Regina and Saskatoon and a second mobile mammography unit, which will double the capacity of both screening locations and increase accessibility for the rural and northern populations once the units are installed and operational.

This expansion of the screening eligibility age aligns with several other provinces that have recently implemented or announced this change to their screening programs.

The Sask. Screening Program for Breast Cancer encourages people to talk to a healthcare provider to help them make an informed decision about breast cancer screening. A healthcare provider can advise if screening may be right for them.

Local readers share their ‘favourite Christmas memory’

Students from local schools wrote about their favourite Christmas memory, and shared it with the

Both Grade 2 classrooms at St. Michael School had various games and activities set up as stations on Wednesday afternoon for the students to enjoy.

played with the presents that we got. I got what I wanted. We went outside and made snowmen, slid down a big snow pile and played board games. We went to the dugout and skated on the ice.

Jake, Grade 3

St. Michael School

My favourite Christmas memory was when I knocked my Christmas tree over. I was two years old. I was very small and didn’t know much. I remember when I got my first toy tractor. It was green on the outside. There were two big wheels at the back. It was two inches tall. It had one big window at the back. Unfortunately, I lost it when I turned three.

Kelvin, Grade 3

St. Michael School

My favourite Christmas memory was when I skated for the first time. I was so happy I jumped into the snow and I forgot

I had my skates on. It hurt a little but I tried not to cry and hugged my Mom. Another favourite memory was when I learned how to make a snowball. I started throwing it at my Dad. It was funny! A favourite gift I got was a hoverboard. I felt very lucky.

Mia, Grade 3

St. Michael School

My favourite Christmas memory was last year. My elf did something bad and he melted cheese in the microwave. My elf also climbed up to the top of the tree and it was high. He also did bad stuff like putting stuff in the dishwasher. My elf does a lot of tricks like jumping off the tree at home. When he does that I don’t see it but he writes me a letter. So long like very long. It was a funny letter.
