Making a difference in Afghanistan By Greg Nikkel Jeff McMurdo is working to make a difference in Afghanistan, as he helps ensure his agency will save lives in the long run as they seek to make the country a safer place to live. For the past two years, McMurdo has been the program manager for the United Nations Mine Action Service Office based out of the capital of Kabul, Afghanistan. The work can be intense and very busy, he said, but it is “more on the level of security and life and death. Their futures are in the balance, so you feel privileged to be involved in that. The work is really interesting, but it’s very satisfying too.” He grew up in Moose Jaw, but has a brother, Barry, and a cousin, Duane Schultz, who both live in Weyburn, and his grandfather came to Weyburn when he settled in Canada. Jeff was in Weyburn for a visit when he took some time to talk about his work. Asked how he got involved in this project, McMurdo said he first visited Kabul in 2001 when he was working for a non-government organization (NGO), which was an international organization concerned with the migration of internal refugees within Afghanistan. “I had always wanted to go back,” he said, explaining he began travelling when he was 22 years old, and felt he would like to be involved with international development and worked with the NGO for

Jeff McMurdo, the program manager for the United Nations Mine Action Service Office in Afghanistan, is shown at a project site near the Salang Pass north of Kabul in Afghanistan where he is working to coordinate efforts to eradicate land mines from the war-ravaged country. This was taken while he was on a road mission shortly after arriving in Afghanistan in August 2014. He has lived in Kabul for two years, and took the position after having served there in 2001 with an NGO in Afghanistan. about 10 years. For the last seven years, he has been working with the United Nations, and took this position when it came open. “In the last 40 years, I’ve lived in Canada maybe 12 years,” he said, noting he hasn’t lived in Canada since 2000, but will return here in about four years time. In his United Nations position in Kabul,
he works with the Afghan government coordinating technical support, advisory support and fundraising support, working with 140 national staff and six international staff, with six regional offices around Afghanistan. Canada is the second largest donor to the landmine eradication program after the United States. McMurdo is proud to
note that the effort to find and eliminate land mines is a mostly Canadian-led effort, and has been noted globally, with other international de-mining efforts following their lead, and modelling their program on the UN’s program Afghanistan. When they began, they were the most mine-contaminated country in the world, but they were also
the first to begin the effort to clear and remove land mines. Now, with about 78 per cent of the known land mine fields cleared, they rank about the fourth-most contaminated country for land mines. “There were so many people getting killed by mines, they realized they needed to do something very quickly,” said McMurdo, noting that as for-
eign military forces were reluctant to come in and do it, the United Nations stepped up and said they would start a de-mining program. One of the problems they’ve encountered is the constant discovery of more minefields, which is keeping the 22-per-cent uncleared number static as they get more to clear. Continued on Page 5
Local students enter videos in Young Citizens program By Greg Nikkel Three Weyburn students who had entered a local and regional heritage fair have joined with 200 others from across Canada to post videos on the Young Citizens program through Canada’s History Society. Nation-wide, the students are from Grades 4 to 11 who had outstanding Heritage Fair projects, and they used video cameras to interpret the history that grabbed their attention. From Weyburn, Kent Shumlich, Gracie Renner and Abbie Hayward were among those chosen to take part in the video series posted online at YoungCitizens.ca. Unlike most other young citizens competitions, Kent’s video was always part of his original heritage project on the Sask. Air Ambulance service. “I had a goal to win the digital award and I thought that making a TV show would help me win it,” he said. The digital award goes to a project that shows use of technology and excellent communication skills. “I like using technology and I like making little videos anyway, so it wasn’t too hard for me,” he said. The idea for his topic on the Sask. air ambulance came from a trip to the Western Development Museum in Moose Jaw a few years ago with his family. They saw an old air ambulance (the CF-SAM) and the family was surprised that an air ambulance service existed way back
in the 1940s. The idea was filed away as a good topic for a heritage project as they knew Kent would eventually have to do one. Kent said, “I also love planes and I am really interested in them and I kind of want to be a pilot, so it was fun to learn about.” When Kent presented at his school and at regionals he
His project made him appreciate Canada because “it shows that we want to help everyone in medical trouble, and even though it was a hard service to have we did it because our province cares about us.” He added, “We still have people way too far away from big hospitals and they would be in trouble without this service. We were the first air ambulance service in the world and we should be really proud of that.” Grade 6 student Abbie Hayward did her project on the CBC, as she feels this is an invaluable service to the citizens of Canada. “My project describes the importance of the CBC in telling the stories of the Canadian people,” she said, adding that the national broadcaster is a part of who we are as a country. “It broadcasts to give Canadians a sense of comstudent Kent Shumlich mon Canadian identity.

E Recycling should not be a challenge today
I
n an era of environmental awareness and concern, and in a country where environmental activities are fully encouraged and promoted in the media, at workplaces and in schools, recycling seems to be a challenge for the City of Weyburn to provide or to make possible for residents. For years the City has investigated various programs and venues for recycling, and the provincial government has been no help, as they promised for years that they would provide funding for a provincial program. Now, the City of Weyburn is seeking requests for proposals for recycling for city residents, with the challenge of SARCAN ending the recycling of plastic milk jugs as of July 1, since there is apparently now no funding for it, and recycling was ended province-wide through SARCAN. In the meantime, while residents need to await the city council’s decision about whether there will be a recycling program offered, or what form such a program might take, there is the option to pay a fee to one of two local companies to have curbside recycling picked up, or send the milk jugs to the landfill. Nobody wants the latter scenario, and in fact, this is a major reason why recycling has been developed to begin with, to help cut down on the volume of waste going into the landfills. Land space is valuable, and it’s not so easy to just open up a new quarter section of land for a new landfill once the old one is filled up and can’t take any more garbage. Therefore, conscientious residents recycle what they can, like paper, cardboard, tin and glass, and plastics, like milk jugs for example, because these items can be recycled and kept from filling up landfill sites. From a resident’s point of view, their taxes go towards the range of services that the city or RM provides, and it seems excessive to have to pay a fee over and above that to get recycling taken care of — thus, many people will just end up sending milk jugs out to the landfill. This is unfortunate on many levels, including being bad for the landfill. Local businesses who are trying to fill this need in the community should be supported, and residents are encouraged to do so. The other point is, if and when the city provides recycling, there may well be an additional fee charged because the reality is, recycling costs money. If a resident wanted to, they could take a bag of milk jugs up to Regina to Crown Shredding — but they have to pay $3 a bag to do it. Clearly this is an area the province needs to step up and provide for all residents. — Greg Nikkel
Places bureaucrats shouldn’t touch
My Nikkel’s Worth By Greg Nikkel Email: editor@weyburnreview.com
I’m convinced that somewhere there is a secret school for bureaucrats where they teach new recruits to subvert normal life, and to make life in general more difficult for the general citizenry. I am sure there are “nice” bureaucrats who make an effort to be helpful and to expedite those rules and regulations that are an evil necessity for a modern civilization to carry on the activities of life — but they aren’t in Ottawa, and they aren’t in many of our larger urban centres, based on reports I’ve been seeing lately. Take the case of a fine Canadian tradition, where young children set up a lemonade stand on a street corner on a hot summer day, to try and earn a little bit of money. In Ottawa, a pair of sisters, aged five and seven, did just this with a lemonade stand — and were told they had to shut down, because they didn’t have the “proper permits” to operate. Just think about that for a moment, and consider how many times you’ve driven down a street in Weyburn or one of the surrounding towns, and you’ve seen a lemonade stand. If you were thirsty, or knew the kids or just wanted to stop to give them a little support, you would stop and give them a loonie or some quarters for a cup of juice and maybe some cookies, and chat with them for a couple of minutes. As I said, this is a long-standing tradition in Canada in most every neighbourhood where there
are children living and playing. Sometimes they are raising money, such as one pair of girls I came across last summer, raising funds for the Humane Society, and sometimes it’s just to earn a little bit of spending money for themselves. In any event, this is not a realm for bureaucrats to intrude upon. They have no place to be so highhanded and declare that correct permits are needed. In fact, in Ottawa, the capital commission was embarrassed into making an apology publicly and to say that the girls should be able to go ahead and sell their lemonade — but amazingly, and stubbornly, they still want paperwork filled out. Yes, for little girls aged five and seven. In another instance, another Canadian tradition has been trod upon by bureaucrats, as street hockey and driveway basketball hoops are actually banned in larger cities. In Toronto, they actually have signs in residential areas saying that this normal activity that kids have been playing for generations is banned. Shockingly, a Toronto councillor, and Mayor John Tory, appeared on the report saying that outdoor activities need to be encouraged, and that municipal governments need to kind of butt out of it. I couldn’t agree more. I mean, what is more Canadian than to have a pickup street hockey game with the cries of “Car!” every once in a while so the players can stand back and watch as a car drives by before they resume playing?

One concern that I have been hearing from several local organizations is the difficulty of recruiting volunteers. Volunteers are such important partners for many organizations, and the decrease of volunteers coming on board could threaten the capacity and even the existence of several non profits. Let’s face it, the contributions of volunteers are worth their weight in gold to these organizations. When volunteers give their time, they take an active role in the organization’s mission and pledge their support to the cause. It can be a difficult for any organization to bring in ‘new blood’ to their group. This is especially a concern for any organization who have not been successful in their recruitment efforts. Sometimes, it is a matter of getting the word out
to the right people, in the right way. Sometimes, it is a matter of informing the public of the purpose of that organization, and how they help the community. Sometimes, it is about accepting change and moving forward with new ideas. And while getting volunteers is one challenge, retaining them is another. It is important to ensure that the volunteers that are with the organization feel appreciated and that their voice is being heard. Get to know who your volunteers are and how to talk to them. Get to know why they felt volunteering was important to them, and that their goals are being realized. Most importantly, illustrate the impact the organization has on the community. Compelling communications and showcasing your volunteers success just might be that key to recruitment.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR City resident unhappy to send milk jugs to landfill To the Editor: I just threw 25 plastic milk jugs into the garbage to be taken to the landfill. Now that SARCAN no longer takes milk cartons or jugs, my options are to pay a fee to recycle them or throw them in the garbage. The City of Weyburn should be offering curbside pick up for recyclables and compost.
I am not impressed at the efforts and fees to avoid putting plastics in a landfill. The City should be doing more to make recycling a realistic option for taxpayers. Get with the environmental times, City of Weyburn! JoAnn Oldcom, Weyburn

“Take care! Don’t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired, because then you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. 2. When you give a gift to someone in need, don’t shout about it as the hypocrites do — blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! … 4. Give your gifts in secret, and your Father, who knows all secrets, will reward you.” — Matthew 6:1-2, 4 New Living Translation

Working in Afghanistan Continued from front page “We make progress every year, but when we search and find new fields, that number fluctuates,” he said, referring to the number of mine fields left to be cleared. In addition to the danger of land mines, they are also finding fields of unexploded ordinants, such as anti-tank and anti-personnel mines. Where things get dicy is when there are roadside bombs; if they have been planted by group with political affiliations, the UN can’t really touch them, but they pass on the information about the bombs to the Afghan military to take care of. “It’s a great program that we’re on, but it’s very challenging. The Afghan staff is great,” he said, noting unfortunately they get caught up in the turmoil that continues to be ongoing in that country. Currently, in addition to the Taliban (which is still in conflict with the government), ISIS is now trying to make inroads, and are fighting the Taliban as well as the Afghan military. Asked if there are violent incidents or bombings going on in Kabul, McMurdo said there are not incidents every day, but there have been suicide bombers and vehicle bombs every once in a while. He noted the last large explosion in Kabul was on Jan. 15 which killed a number of people. The UN staff live in secure compounds with a private security force guarding it.
“The UN has not really been affected, but sometimes the national staff get caught up in incidents,” said McMurdo. Due to these ongoing security concerns and the busy nature of his work, there isn’t a lot of time for going out to market places or restaurants in Kabul, although he noted that Afghanistan is actually quite a beautiful country. “Work is so busy and security issues are things you deal with, sometimes my life is monastic,” he said, with meetings keeping him busy for long hours each week. With six regional offices around the country, he is sometimes able to get out into the field, but “more and more in the last year, it’s become more constrained.” In spite of the challenges, however, “mine clearing work is very satisfying,” said McMurdo. He is able to come back to Canada to visit family every couple of years. As his wife is from Ontario, and his family is here in Saskatchewan, they are able to split their time between the two provinces. Asked if there is anything about Canada that he misses while working in Afghanistan, McMurdo thought for a moment and shook his head. “I wouldn’t say I miss things from Canada, but home is always nice to come back to,” he said. “I miss the prairies. Of all the places I’ve seen in the world, I still think Moose Jaw is one of the best.”

Police continue to investigate scams City police noted that a number of telephone and internet scams seem to be prevalent again. As these seem to be happening on a weekly basis, the police are hoping that people are becoming more wary of them. The police stress that if it sounds too good to be true, or seems like an odd way to do business, the contact is likely a scam. • Weyburn police received a call of possible gun shots in the Albert Street area just after midnight on Saturday.

The City of Weyburn is putting out a request for proposals (RFP) for recycling services, with the goal to have a decision on recycling by early fall. Meantime, the recycling of plastic milk jugs is no longer available through SARCAN, which discontinued taking the jugs as of July 1. City residents now have the option of paying a fee to one of two local companies who do blue-bin curbside recycling, or send them to the landfill. “The City is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Multi-Material Recycling Program. This RFP will be posted on SaskTenders, on the City website and will be advertised in the Weyburn Review,” said city engineer Sean Abram.
In regard to milk jug recycling, he said, “If there is no alternative (local or within a reasonable travel distance), then the milk jugs may have to go to the landfill. We are looking at an interim solution, but no decision has been made.” “We were kind of left out in the blue,” said Coun. Mel Van Betuw, chair of the City’s Environmental Resources committee, who noted they discussed this issue on Monday morning. Asked if the city was looking for bins for recycling, such as are currently available for paper and cardboard, or curbside bin recycling, he said they will look at options for both, or for a combination of both, and see which will be the most economical and best service

for the residents. “Hopefully, citizens will refrain from putting them into the city landfill. It’s hard for the city to control that even with a program in place. It’s a personal responsibility to recycle. You can’t force people to throw their things into the right bin,” said Coun. Van Betuw. The two local services that offer blue-bin recycling are Blue Earth Environmental and Goliath Disposal. Both companies have specific lists of what they will or will not accept, but both do accept plastic milk jugs, among many other things, including numbered plastic containers from 1 to 7, tin cans, paper (ranging from newsprint to magazines and flyers) and beverage containers.

Red Wings, coach, GM and volunteer inducted to Hall
Weyburn a focus of Hockey Hall of Fame By Greg Nikkel Much of the focus of the Saskatchewan Hockey Hall of Fame induction ceremonies were centred on Weyburn’s Red Wings on Friday evening, as many of the tables set up in Crescent Point Place were filled for the gala evening. Several players from the 1983-84 national championship squad of the Red Wings were on hand for the event, at which the team was inducted in the Teams category. Coach Dwight McMillan and head of scouting Ron Rumball, were inducted in the Builders category, and the late Tom Huston was inducted in the Grassroots category. “It’s a very humbling experience,” said Rumball. He had been chosen to speak on behalf of the inductees after each one was presented with a plaque and jersey from the Hockey Hall of Fame. “Hockey is a people business. Without good people, there’s no good hockey,” he said, and quoted one of the players from the ‘84 Red Wings, John Corrigan, as he said “you have to have character” to have a winning team, and that team had a lot of good character. In spite of the team rivalries, there is a shared sense of community in hockey, said Rumball, noting that one year, in the 1981-82 season, there were seven or eight Notre Dame Hounds players who played with the Wings. The programs developed by the Saskatchewan Hockey Association and the hockey leagues all around the province also all deserve credit for helping develop good hockey players and coaches. He referred to the Hockey News which rated the top 15 coaches in the NHL, and at least four of them came out of Saskatchewan’s hockey system. Rumball was happy to see the good number of Red Wings who were able to come for the ceremonies, and said on behalf of the inductees, “We’re very proud to be here, and we’ll carry on the tradition.” There were some anxious moments during the evening’s program, as the former owner of the Red Wings at the time they won the national championship in 1984, Tom Webb, collapsed and required medical attention. He was taken to hospital by EMTs, and received treatment at the hospital and was released over the weekend. Earlier, Mayor Debra Button spoke of the large impact that hockey has on life in Saskatchewan, and said, “There is no prouder community than ours” when it comes to celebrating hockey success. She noted that inductee Dwight McMillan had coached her husband Greg along with many others, and

said no matter which former player of Dwight’s one asks, they will tell you that he helped those boys become men under his coaching and influence. Of the late Tom Huston, Mayor Button said, “I still can’t walk into this arena without looking for Tommy Huston. He was ‘Mr. Hockey’.” She added that inductee Ron Rumball is also a household name in Weyburn through his years of working as a scout, team manager and general manager. Addressing all of the inductees, she said, “You are the reason hockey is and will continue to be the greatest sport in Canada.” The co-chairs of the Saskatchewan Hockey Hall of Fame also spoke briefly. “One of my favourite categories is the Grassroots category, and I was reading about Tommy Huston. We’re going to have two guys in the Hall named ‘Mr. Hockey’,” said Jack Brodsky, referring to the late Gordie Howe who was also widely known by that moniker. The other co-chair, Blair Davidson, noted that the Hockey Hall of Fame, located in Swift Current, is a great facility should anyone be going through the city, encouraging them to take the time to go see it, as all of the inductees from that evening will be there. He said the Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame was a great help to the organization, helping provide some of the memorabilia they now have on display in the Hall of Fame, and the Saskatchewan Hockey Association has also been a major supporter of the initiative. “Saskatchewan has an incredibly rich hockey heritage, and you can help us celebrate that,” said Davidson. • Those who were inducted into the Players category included Orland Kurtenbach, who started in the SJHL and went on to the NHL with the Maple Leafs, New York Rangers and finally the Vancouver Canucks, serving as the franchise’s first team captain; Bob Turner, who first played three years

championship, and the 195657 Flin Flon Bombers, who was the first SJHL team to win a national championship, the National Junior Memorial Cup. Of the Red Wings team, coach McMillan noted there was a lot of talent on that squad. “Coaches don’t win
championships, players do, and they win it in the dressing room.” He noted the leadership of Mark Schneider and the goaltending of John Corrigan were two of the factors, along with the superb penalty-killing and offensive abilities all combined to lead the team to the championship.

DeLaet makes official Olympic golf rankings Graham DeLaet will have an opportunity to represent Canada at the 2016 Olympics. Both David Hearn and Graham DeLaet are the top-ranked Canadian golfers, so were selected as Canadian representatives for male golf. It will be a chance for DeLaet and Hearn to defend the gold medal that Canada won the last time golf was part of the Olympics, in 1904 when the gold medal was won by George S. Lyon. The official standings, rosters and field for the golf competition at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro were released on Monday. While there have been several withdrawals from the Olympics with players citing everything from scheduling to the Zika virus, neither Hearn nor DeLaet have not waived their commitment to representing Canada at the 2016 Olympics. “I’ve been excited about it since they announced it, and I think it’s going to be a tremendous competition,” said Hearn. “It’ll be something that people will be more excited about in the future.” “I’m not getting any younger, and there are a lot of good players coming up,” said DeLaet. “I had to take the opportunity. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing.” DeLaet will not have his usual caddie Julien Trudeau on his bag that week. Instead, DeLaet will use his friend Ray Whitney, an NHL veteran who played on the Carolina Hurricanes’ 2006 Stanley Cup championship team. DeLaet has had an up-and-down 2016 campaign in the PGA Tour. He has four top-15 finishes, and was in contention going into the final round at the Valspar Championship where he tied for fifth. But after missing the cut at the AT&T Byron Nelson, DeLaet withdrew from the Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide citing anxiety while chipping and pitching. He was back on the PGA Tour for the Barracuda Tournament, and will be at the Barbasol Championship, which runs July 14 and 17. Then he will be in Ontario for the RBC Canadian Open, which runs July 21 to 24. The Olympic Golf men’s tournament will begin on August 11, with the women’s competition starting on August 18.
Red Wings goaltender attends ’Hawks camp The 2016 Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League’s Goaltender of the Year had an opportunity to showcase his skills with the Chicago Blackhawks last week. Jack Burgart, who is committed to play at Bemidji State University next season, is one of nine goalies who attended the Blackhawks Prospect Camp from July 10 to 15. Combine Burgart’s elite skill with his 6’5” frame, and it’s easy to see why scouts believe he can play with the best in the world. During the 2016-17 SJHL regular season, Burgart played 43 games, including 27 wins while running a 1.97 goalagainst-average and three shutouts. Burgart, a native of Fort St. James, B.C., turned heads on a nightly basis during his time with the Red Wings. He started playing in 2013-14 as a backup behind Rylan Parenteau. Parenteau only spent one season with the Red Wings before moving up to the WHL, where he continued to thrive, allowing Burgart to take over the starting role.
Parenteau is also attending an NHL Prospect Camp this summer with the Vancouver Canucks. Bryce Thoma, head coach and general manager of the Red Wings, credits his netminders success to his assistant coach, Wes Rudy, who started out as the Wings goaltending consultant. “Wes has done an outstanding job with our four goalies we’ve had over the past three seasons,” said Thoma. “All have moved onto the NCAA or WHL, with Burgart and Parenteau attending NHL camps.” Thoma will look to Rudy to groom a new tandem of goaltenders for the upcoming season, as Burgart will be suiting up for the Bemidji State Beavers, while 17-year-old rookie Carter Phair is expected to play with the Edmonton Oil Kings of the WHL. “It is a credit to the time and effort Wes and the goalies have put in on a daily basis.” stated Thoma. “We’re lucky to have Wes and look forward to having him work with our goalies again this coming season.”
Registration still open for Legacy Golf event The ninth annual Legacy Golf Tournament will be held at the Weyburn Golf Course on Saturday, July 16. There is still time to register for the event. The entry fee is $500 for a team of four, and that includes green fees, power carts, souvenirs and a prime rib supper. Many prizes will be available. Elmer Frank, organizer of the Legacy Golf Tournament, stressed the importance of this event, since it helps en-
sure the future prosperity of the golf course. He encourages any interested golfers to contact him or the Golf Course ProShop to get registered for the tournament. The Legacy Golf Tournament will also feature live and silent auctions at the end of the evening. Some featured items will include a Stanley Cup picture of Pittsburgh Penguin Derrick Pouliot, an Aaron Sanchez Blue Jays jersey, and a Graham DeLaet golf course picture.
Stanley Cup, Pouliot at ‘Day with Cup’ event The Stanley Cup will be arriving in Weyburn, along with Pittsburgh Penguin Derrick Pouliot. A “Day with the Cup” community celebration will be held on Wednesday, July 27 in the lobby of Crescent Point Place from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Residents will be able to get their photo taken with the Stanley Cup. There will also be a barbecue outside Crescent Point Place, spon-
sored by Derrick Pouliot and the Weyburn Minor Hockey Association. There will an autographed jersey raffle. All proceeds from the barbecue and raffle will go to KidsSport and the Minor Hockey Association. Pouliot was part of the 2016 Stanley Cup champion team, when they captured the NHL title. He is an alumni of Weyburn Minor Hockey.

Mainil, Team Canada win gold at U19 World Championships Logan Mainil and Team Canada captured gold at the 2016 under-19 World Championships. In the gold medal game, Team Canada defeated the United States 24-6. The World Championships was hosted by the International Federation of American Football. This year, the championship was held in China. With a victory in the latest installment, Canada has evened up its under-19 World Championship finals record at two wins and two losses. Canada previously captured gold at the 2012 worlds in Austin, Texas to go along with a pair of silver medals from the inaugural 2009 event in Canton, Ohio as well as the 2014 edition in Kuwait. The latest win also marks outgoing head coach Warren Craney’s final game as head of the program. Craney served as defensive coordinator in 2009 and 2012, before first adding the head coach responsibilities in preparation for the 2014 worlds. The win is even more impressive considering that early on, Canada looked to be in serious trouble. Following a failed field goal from the 32-yard line, quarterback Lindell Stone found a wide open U.S. receiver down the sideline, however, linebacker Nick Cross neutralized the threat as he forced and recovered a U.S. fumble at the Canada 24-yard line. Canada was unable to capitalize on the turnover. On their following
drive, the U.S. responded, taking an early 3-0 lead on a 22-yard field goal. The U.S. regained possession on the following kickoff as the ball was recovered by an American defender at the Canada 26-yard line. The Canadian defense was able to hold the U.S. at bay, forcing a field goal attempt that missed the mark. Canada pulled ahead two plays into their following series as quarterback Dimitri Morand found receiver François Rocheleau along the sideline for an 80-yard touchdown, giving Canada the lead 7-3. Canada would not look back as a 47-yard touchdown run would widen the lead, 14-3, heading into halftime. Team Canada would strike again early in the second half as quarterback Morand connected on a 67-yard play-action touchdown strike to give Canada a 21-3 advantage. With a pair of touchdown catches, Rocheleau earned Canada’s player of the game honours. On the following series, the U.S. came out gunning, but the Canadian defense was equal to the task as Bruno Lagacé (Boucherville, QC) stepped in front of a long Lindell Stone pass to give Canada the ball at midfield. Canada capitalized on the turnover as Vincent Blanchard nailed a 40-yard field goal attempt to increase the Canada third quarter lead 24-3. Nearing the end of the third quarter, the U.S. added a 27-yard field

goal to decrease the deficit, but that’s as close as they’d get. Team USA continued to press the Canadian defense throughout the final quarter, looking to narrow the deficit, however, the Canadian defense stood strong and held an explosive American squad without a touchdown on the evening.

The Review, Weyburn, Saskatchewan, July 13, 2016 - 11
Suddenly, there’s sport joy in Cleveland
Cleveland? The sports capital of the world? Loserville turned into the American version of the City of Champions? This would be like Lucy actually allowing Charlie Brown to kick the field goal, a game-winner no less. This would be the (gulp!) Chicago Cubs breaking their 108-year drought. This would be like gamblers at Las Vegas going home winners. Cleveland? What’s in the Great Lakes water these days? Infamous for not having a professional sports champion since the 1964 Browns, the year 2016 could turn into a bonanza for the city’s sports teams. Hit the ‘cancel’ button on The Mistake by the Lake moniker. Cleveland’s rockin’ baby, and for more than just the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. First the LeBron Jamesled Cavaliers, who made NBA history by winning

the last three games of the Championship Finals to snatch the title away from Golden State Warriors, whose 73-win regular season went all for naught. Now, the Cleveland Indians are playing like the ’27 Yankees, running away with the American League Central Division and making serious World Series noise. A 14-game winning streak in late June-early July propelled the Indians to a big division lead. The Indians’ starting rotation, led by Danny Salazar, Josh Tomlin, Corey Kluber and Trevor Bauer (a combined 33-13 at the end of June), is the majors’ best, according to Sports Illustrated. Second-year shortstop flash Francisco Lindor, who was rookie-of-the-year runner-up, is having an even better second season. Cleveland fans are excited. Not as excited as they were two years ago when the Browns drafted quarterback Johnny (Football) Manziel from Texas A and M. But excited enough after getting a taste of victory with the Cavs that maybe another championship parade in early November to salute the Indians would be fun, too. Manziel, meanwhile, has ridden off into a world
of self-destruction. He’s a celebrity and a serious druggie (according to his father). He’s thrown hundreds of touchdown passes as a high schooler, college star and in his short career as an NFLer, but now he’s thrown away something far more important: a career. In the ‘new’ Cleveland, perhaps the Browns under new coach Hue Jackson will resurrect the perennial losers, as QB Robert Griffin III resurrects his career, and give the Ohio city a sports triple crown in 2016. Stranger things have happened. Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “Indianapolis Colts QB, Andrew Luck, has signed a $140 million, six-year contract, the biggest ever. In a related story, Johnny Manziel’s credit card was declined at a bar in Mexico.” Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “Johnny Manziel attended a Justin Bieber concert. In a crowd full of 16,000 11-year-olds, Manziel was still the least mature person in the room.” Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Dateline Cleveland, Oct. 1: Indians vow to finally end the city’s four-month championship drought.”
Gold medal won by Shehawks

The Shehawks captured gold in the Borderline Fastball League final, after defeating the Weyburn White Lightning at Ceylon Regional Park, for the inaugural season for the Ladies Borderline Fastball league. The Shehawks got off to a quick start by scoring eight runs in the first inning and two runs in second. They continued to rally after a brief rain delay in the top of third. Three more runs in the bottom of the fourth put the Hawks ahead 13-3 and the game was called after five innings. Ashley Betker was named the top tournament pitcher and Stephanie Pateman received honours as the tournament’s most valuable player.

Patient waiting for double-lung transplant speaks on organ donations
Residents urged to ‘give gift of life’ Only one per cent of Saskatchewan residents are organ donors, and lung patient Charlotte L’Oste-Brown is willing to use her last breath to try and encourage people to volunteer to donate their organs in the event of their death. Members of the Rotary Club of Weyburn heard from her on Thursday as she explained what her current medical condition is, and the challenges she faces as a person who needs a double-lung transplant. She began to have trouble breathing in June of 2003, and woke up one morning with her arms three times their normal size. By September, she had been diagnosed with polymyositis, which is a chronic inflammatory disease of muscle tissue, and it quickly spread to her organs, in particular her lungs. The disease caused a thickening of lung tissue. “I was told seven out of 10 people die within 10 years of diagnosis. I’ve surpassed that as I’m now in my 14th year since then, but not everybody does. I met one person who died within six months of finding out,” said L’Oste-Brown. When she was diagnosed, she asked her
doctor why she couldn’t have a lung transplant. “She said the disease will get very nasty. We were nowhere near getting a lung transplant at that time. I will be on my last breath before I will be considered for a transplant,” she said, noting she changed her diet and did exercises to help her stay healthy, plus she uses medication to help her be able to cope. Still she has had cut back on her activities as her body isn’t able to be as busy as she once was. “I used to go shopping at random … but now things like that just tire me out,” said L’Oste-Brown, noting that her condition has meant all those around her have also had to make adjustments as they deal with her health issues. If and when she gets the call that a lung donation has come in for her, she has to be able to travel to Edmonton literally at a moment’s notice, and to prepare for that, she has sold off all her belongings and is renting. Once she travels to Edmonton for the transplant, she will have to live there for three months so she can be near her
doctors as they monitor her health. “Needless to say, it costs a lot of money,” said L’Oste-Brown, noting that her family and friends have held fundraisers to help her out with the expenses, which would include hiring a 24-hour-a-day caregiver to stay with her once she’s had the transplant. She has been on 24-hour standby since Dec. 1, as a call could come in at any time for her to come immediately to Edmonton to get the transplant. When a call comes, she would be taken straight to Edmonton by air ambulance, and would be on the operating table within five hours. “There haven’t been any lungs come in of the right size and blood type,” she said, adding that her doctors have encouraged her to go out and speak to people about the need for organ donations. “Am I scared of the operation? Hell, no,” she said, noting only one per cent of people in Saskatchewan have indicated they are willing to donate their organs in the event of an accident or other form of death. L’Oste-Brown said there has been a lot of misinformation about organ donation, one of them being that a smoker’s lungs could not be
used. Even though she requires a new set of lungs, she could use lungs from a smoker. It’s important for people to know that there is no age limit to donating organs, and noted 257 children died in Canada last year waiting for organ donations. Referring to the tragedy of a family who was killed in accident last year, she said the organ donations from those victims saved a total of 51 lives. She just recently found out there is an app on iPhones by which a person can indicate they are willing to donate their organs. “You can put your information on that so if you’re in an accident, that’s the only part of your phone that isn’t locked,” said L’Oste-Brown. “I encourage you, if there’s something you’d like to do to give the gift of life beforehand, it’s very important that you do that,” she added, encouraging people to let their friends and relatives know that your intention is to donate your organs should the opportunity arise. “It’s best to be prepared. It relieves a lot of stress,” she said. For herself, she was encouraged to have everything in order beforehand, “so you know what you’re going into.”
Weyburn begins treatment of water for taste and smell The taste and smell of the City of Weyburn’s water has changed, and the City has begun treating it accordingly. According to city engineer Sean Abram, this usually happens in August after the hot summer days of July; however due to the early spring the quality of water in Nickle Lake has changed early as well. There are a number of factors that contribute to this type of change in water quality, including the lack of snowfall and spring runoff, high winds stirring up settled material from the bottom of the lake and the growth of algae due to warmer temperatures. “Last week the quality of the water drawn from Nickle Lake for treatment changed significantly and quickly. The turbidity at the intake changed from 7 to 30, indicating an increase in the organic material in the water. This organic material is algae,” said Abram, adding that as of July 6, the turbidity has decreased to 18. Even with this change in the raw water quality and the taste/smell that some residents are noticing, the treated
water from the Water Treatment Plant meets all the health requirements as required by the provincial and federal agencies; the water is safe to drink and cook with. “Not everyone has the same sensitivities. Some people are noticing the change in smell and taste, some find it very strong and others do not notice a change,” said Abram. The City has made changes to the water treatment process to reduce the smell and taste that has been in the water the last few days. It will take a few days for these changes to work their way through the water distribution system and for people to notice an improvement in the smell and taste. In the meantime, if desired, over the next few days a small countertop charcoal based filter will improve the smell/ taste of the water. If any residents have further questions about water quality, they can contact the City of Weyburn’s Engineering Department at 306-848-3232.

Non-serviced camping is available. A beautiful day was marked on July 4, when the sun shone down on bright yellow canola fields, a few azure blue flax fields and many very green grain and hay fields. Trees are very green and seem to be like everything else this year, either growing taller or brushing out. Folks who have gardens are happy with the outcome of their labour, as they are beginning to use many of the products grown in those gardens. As yet, rain has fallen some, when needed, however some areas have had the right amount of rain, while other areas still need more. Dorothy Voigt, nee Fellner, was laid to rest in the Pangman Cemetery on July 2, with most of her family in attendance. The Holy Angels Church served lunch in the Community Center, where friends gathered for a visit with the

Graduation ceremonies held at Stoughton School By Sharlet Coderre, 306-457-2745 Stoughton — There were nine Grade 12 students who graduated from Stoughton Central School this year. The graduates were Dylan Breault, David Charles, Jessica Davis, Blake Dempsey, Beth-Ann Goudy, Jordin Holonics, Riley Ingram, Spencer Vogel and Rayah Will. Their motto was “What takes us back in our memory, what brings us forward in our dreams.” They began their celebrations with a banquet at the Legion, followed by the exercises in the school gymnasium. The master of ceremonies for the exercises were two teachers, Trevor Gordon and Derek Wasyliw. The ceremonies opened with O Canada led by
Jacquie and Aaron Walbaum, followed by guest speaker Const. Sheldon Preston from the Fillmore RCMP detachment. In his address Preston noted, “Education is a tough job, hard work pays off, save your money and spend wisely.” His life advice was “every successful person has ‘jumped’” (taken risks) and he encouraged the graduates to not be afraid to ‘jump’ as they go through life. He used himself as an example accomplishing his goal to become an RCMP officer at the age of 38. The following awards were then presented: Town of Stoughton, Dillon Breault; Stoughton Lions Club, Jessica Davis; Stoughton Legion, Beth Ann Goudy and Jordin Holonics; Stoughton Credit Union, Beth
