Questions to Melville-Saltcoats candidates Saskatchewan voters, including those in the provincial constituency of Melville-Saltcoats head to the polls Monday, Oct. 26. To help voters know the candidates, and their positions on some key issues, Yorkton This Week/ The Marketplace submitted five questions to each candidate via the email on the Saskatchewan Elections site, and asked them to submit their responses by Oct. 19; the questions and answers of those candidates who responded follow. Q) Municipalities are suffering an infrastructure deficit, from town streets and water lines to rural roads and bridges. Would you be calling for additional funding to help municipalities if elected MLA?

Bonnie Galenzoski – New Democrats The Sask Party’s record of austerity has meant fewer projects and less funding to municipalities. Another term won’t change much--Scott Moe has already promised four more years of austerity. The NDP committed to fulfilling the government’s ten-year SaskBuilds capital plan which includes investing in both regional and municipal infrastructure, like a new bridge and hospital in PA and a northern all season road to Wollaston. We’ll also take a SaskFirst approach to procurement--hiring local construction companies and creating jobs for hundreds of local workers.

Warren Kaeding – Saskatchewan Party Infrastructure investment is a priority for this government. The Saskatchewan Party government recognized that some emergency infrastructure funding

was needed, so we initiated the $150M MEEP program which provided funding to every municipality in the province, whether urban or rural. Municipalities spent on road improvement, street repair, replacing equipment and other municipal priorities. Municipal Revenue Sharing continues to be enhanced and improved and is the envy of municipalities across Canada. In 202021, funding increased by $27M to a total of $278M shared by every municipality, city, town and village throughout the province for investment in vital services and infrastructure. We have also added a $2B stimulus funding that will go toward both smaller, short term projects as well as longer-term, large scale projects. This will be invested in Highways, Health infrastructure, Education facilities across the province. As well there will be $181M devoted to renewal projects to reduce deferred maintenance on projects which will include upgrades to local health care, education, airport facilities and other ministries assets such provincial parks, highways and central services assets. We continue to partner with the Federal government to approve and administer $2B in major infrastructure investments through Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program.

TreverRatti–Progressive Conservative Party Yes, I will be calling for repairs of our crumbling infrastructure. Working in communities in our constituency I’ve noticed decay in roadways, sidewalks and railroad crossings that have frankly become a danger to the public. These problems are reoccurring and

Bonnie Galenzoski – New Democrats

Warren Kaeding – Saskatchewan Party

TreverRatti–Progressive Conservative Party

nothing seems to be done to correct them. My personal agenda is safer roadways, rail crossings and sidewalks in our constituency. I will put pressure on whatever government is in place, to address our smaller rural communities being deprioritized for so many years. Focused on infrastructure maintenance and upgrades. The Sask Party has done the bare minimum while overspending in the big cities, our home town businesses close and we fall into disrepair. I for one don’t believe they have any intention past the election to fulfill their commitments, it’s been plain to see while working, walking and driving in our constituency. This is a fact you can see with your eyes, or feel in your back as you cross a railroad track going to work at the mine. I’m not promising the world, just that it will be my number one priority.

We would invest $10 million to address chronic short staffing and hire hundreds of doctors, nurses and continuing care assistants to ensure families get the care they need when they need it. Plus, we’ll work with rural communities on an aggressive recruitment program to hire skilled workers. An NDP government would also create a panel of experts and community members to design a plan to improve access to health care in rural communities.

to provide local training for emergency medical responders, primary care paramedics, continuing care assistants, first year dentistry, medicine, optometry and pharmacy, nursing – degree and masters and practical nursing. This will continue to enhance local training to support local healthcare.

Q) What would your government do to bolster healthcare in rural areas and keep facilities like rural ERs open, and doctors in smaller rural communities to serve local residents?

Bonnie Galenzoski – New Democrats Health care is our number one priority, but we know Scott Moe’s cuts and closures have put care out of reach for rural families. Chronic understaffing has made access to care difficult. I spoke to someone who drove around to three different healthcare facilities just for a broken bone but ended up having to go all the way to Regina. Not only would the NDP promise to reopen rural emergency rooms closed by the Sask Party, we would vow to not close anymore facilities.

Warren Kaeding – Saskatchewan Party The Sask Party is committed to ensuring that communities in rural Saskatchewan continue to grow and thrive both economically and socially. We have introduced new programs to encourage health professionals to work in rural Sask including forgiving up to $20K in student loans for new rural nurses and nurse practitioners. We have invested in 3 innovative Collaborative Emergency Centers, including one in Canora. They provide 24/7 model of enhanced day-time/ extended hours access to primary care and night time access to emergent/ urgent care provided by an RN, a paramedic and access to an on-line physician. We continue to support the SIPPA program which has contributed to over 900 new doctors coming to the province since 2007. Doctors serving in rural Saskatchewan continue to get a financial benefit serving rural communities. We will continue to invest in building new facilities such as hospitals and care homes. We will continue to invest in regional colleges, such as Parkland Regional College, so they are able

TreverRatti–Progressive Conservative Party We plan to open health care facilities and smaller healthcare centers. We also plan to increase the number of healthcare services that can bill the government, in order to help healthcare facilities expand their businesses. Form agreements with ambulances to perform some minor walk in medical care. Q) COVID-19 is going to have health and economic impact beyond even the next year. What would your government do to support people while the pandemic goes on, and what do we need to do for the coming recovery period?

Bonnie Galenzoski – New Democrats Life was getting harder for Saskatchewan families, but COVID-19 made it even worse. Scott Moe and the Sask Party failed to respond to the needs of families, businesses and industries. Our economy was already failing, but the Sask Party’s pandemic austerity made things even worse. Our recovery plan focuses on building a healthy society and a strong economy that invests in people. We will ensure that children remain safe with smaller classrooms, that seniors stay in their homes longer with an expanded home care program, that minimum care standards are set for long-term care

LINTLAW SERVICE Hwy. 49 & Main St. Lintlaw, SK 306-325-2020

www.lintlawservice.com

and that we have effective supportive programs for those with mental health and addictions needs. Now is not the time for cuts. New Democrats understand that for every dollar invested in services for families nearly $2 are put back into economic growth and our health care and social service systems save $6-$10.

Warren Kaeding – Saskatchewan Party Despite the challenges of dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, Saskatchewan’s economy has been resilient. Although many businesses had to temporarily close or curtail business through the spring and early summer, Saskatchewan had one of the smallest declines among provinces regarding retail trade, merchandise exports, and number of hours worked. In this area we have been very fortunate with minimal lost hours experienced by our large employers such as Mosaic, Nutrien, Grain Millers, Harvest Meats and many others. We have provided many supports to small business, education facilities, childcare and our health care support workers. This may have involved emergency payments, wage top ups and extra funds for supporting safe learning environments for our students. We continue to allow many Crown employees to work from home. We have provided extra emergency shelter for those requiring it. We have provided extra support for caregivers of people with intellectual disabilities, changed policies around lay-off notices and made it easier for workers to access job protected sick leave.

TreverRatti–Progressive Conservative Party We would strive to make the provinces business tax the lowest in the country. We will also introduce a manufacturer’s tax credit that companies can qualify for if they move their business to Saskatchewan, with additional incentives to set up in rural areas. This is a priority for the Progressive Conservative Party of Saskatchewan. We will continue to monitor situations that occur in our workforce and make adjustments as necessary. Q) With a continuing trend toward fewer rural residents, what will you do, if elected, to ensure agriculture remains a priority for the government?

Party’s record of austerity has put improvements like these out of reach for municipalities. We know if he’s re-elected things won’t change--he’s already promised four more years of austerity. New Democrats believe these services are important to keeping families safe and healthy, that’s why we’ve made the significant commitment to fulfill the SaskBuilds capital plan alongside several other local infrastructure projects. Q) What would your government do to bolster healthcare in rural areas

and keep facilities like rural ERs open and doctors in smaller rural communities to serve local residents?

Robert Hayes – Buffalo Party We will bring forward legislation to ensure our rural healthcare will be available to all residents. This means more doctors, nurses, beds, and emergency responders. We will bring forward legislation that will increase private/ public MRI program and bring CT scans under the same Continued on Page 5

MELVILLE-SALTCOATS CANDIDATES Continued from Page 2 Saskatchewan and establishing a career working in governmental agriculture supports. To ensure agriculture remains a priority for government, the NDP will be reviewing the AgriStability formula and push to reset thresholds so more producers can benefit. The NDP will also be reviewing supports to help new and/or young farmers become established. We will be working to enhance rural connectivity to ensure every resident in rural Saskatchewan has access to reliable cell coverage and high speed internet, which will allow producers to take better advantage of new technologies and keep on top of their businesses. Enhanced rural connectivity will also help keep producers safer in remote areas. Through the Renew Saskatchewan Program, the NDP will work with producers to assess needs and develop renewable energy strategies that will lower costs to farmers.

Warren Kaeding – Saskatchewan Party Agriculture will always be one of the pillars of Saskatchewan’s economy. Saskatchewan is Canada’s second largest agri-food exporting province. We expect $1.5B in new agri-food exports once the Canada-European Union Free Trade Agreement is fully implemented. Since forming government, we have grown markets significantly in China,

Japan, Mexico and Brazil. The Ministry of Trade and Export Development was developed to grow relationships with our current export markets and diversify our customer base. We recently announced the opening of provincial trade offices in Japan, India and Singapore. We will continue to support rural municipalities through the Municipal Revenue Sharing program, which provided almost $80M last year. We have spent nearly $9B building and repairing highways since 2007. Our goal is to build and upgrade another 10,000 km of highways by 2030. We will continue to focus on encouraging value-added agriculture to develop. Over 300 companies currently employ over 5000 people who export over $5B in goods every year. Our 2030 growth plan has set a goal of growing agri-food exports to $20B. We want to see annual private capital investment of $16B. We will continue to provide and improve risk supports such as Crop Insurance, Western Livestock Price Insurance and support Agri-Stability programs.

Saskatchewan provides a great opportunity for businesses to utilize reasonably priced real estate, while drawing on an amazing labor force. Although I’m not a farmer personally I have many family members who do farm, many of my friends farm and I realize how important farming is to Saskatchewan. I will always be an advocate for hard working middle class people, of which I believe the farming community to be the back bone of Saskatchewan. Q) Why do you believe you are the best candidate to represent your riding over the next four years?

Bonnie Galenzoski – New Democrats Melville Saltcoats Constituency is a diverse constituency. As such, the constituency requires someone who understands diversity and can lead to a future that includes everyone. While on the campaign trail, constituents tell me it means a lot to have a candidate with a strong rural background, a university degree, years of government experience and the ability to understand and embrace new technology. On the doorsteps, I can empathize with constituents-- like the struggle to raise a family on minimum wage and unaffordable child care rates. I know how difficult it can be for people without supports to reach their full poten-

• Committed to making decisions which meet community needs, will have lasting benefits and are mindful of the economic climate; • Longtime volunteer with many community organizations; • Working on boards provincially and federally, has brought $3.3 million of new funding to the city this year;

tial. My time volunteering in helping immigrants settle into Saskatchewan showed me how difficult that transition can be, but how important those skilled workers are to our economy. Serving on a small community board in various roles means I know the difficulty in accessing and raising funds in a rural area. I know and believe in Saskatchewan people. Our provincial Motto is – “From Many People Strengths” and I know that by Putting People First we can achieve a stronger Saskatchewan and that is what I bring to this constituency.

Warren Kaeding – Saskatchewan Party I am very appreciative of the fact that the constituents of Melville-Saltcoats had the confidence to choose me to be their representative for the last four years. Whenever anyone asks whether I enjoy the work, I emphatically state, “I absolutely do.” You wake up every morning wondering what new and interesting situations you will be encountering today. The experiences that I have had over the last four years as an MLA, Committee Member, Legislative Secretary, and as a Cabinet Minister have provided me with insight into how to make things better for our constituents. My background in Agriculture, my experiences in working with Crown Agencies, urban and rural municipalities, my involvement with

First Nations and Metis communities, Seniors and Rural and Northern healthcare has provided me a tremendous working knowledge of how all of those fit and work within government. There are a lot of unfinished projects that have started throughout our constituency. Being provided another four years to serve as your MLA would ensure those projects have continuity and are seen to completion. I have had the pleasure of meeting and becoming friends with many constituents during the last four years and know there are more interesting people I have yet to meet.

Trever Ratti – Progressive Conservative Party All the candidates represent each of our political parties agenda. We all strive to represent our constituency in a positive manner. I will not say I’m “the best” candidate, I will only say that I believe myself, along with the Progressive Conservative Party of Saskatchewan, have set forth the best platform for a prosperous Saskatchewan. I will hold myself and my party accountable to what we have promised in our campaign, while working hard to improve infrastructure, wellness and prosperity to the people in my constituency. After all I am a proud member of the constituency I wish to represent.

• Works

diligently to ensure citizens receive full value for their tax dollars; • An experienced councillor in touch with Yorkton residents and the issues that affect them.

I appreciate your support!

EDITORIAL One place to put used disposable masks Generally, people learn how to clean up after themselves when they’re quite young. Someone might have to put their toys away when they’re done playing with them, or be directed to organize their desk at school. It’s a pretty common practice. I’ve never been very good at this myself, admittedly, and anyone who has seen my extremely logical and well organized pile of paper on my desk can attest. But even as someone who doesn’t mind clutter at all and who finds folding clothes to be a very aggressive form of torture has limits. That limit has been

reached by people who are careless about how they treat masks and gloves. Wearing masks is great, but there is exactly one place a disposable mask can go when it has outlived its usefulness, the nearest garbage can. The handy thing about masks is that since you wear them, you’ve got a handy way to hold them until you reach that garbage can, just keep them on your face and you’re fine. Easy! The really handy thing about Yorkton is that there are lots of garbage cans around here, whether they’re on the street, in homes, or in businesses.

DEVIN WILGER

Thinking I do with words... Given that the masks function as a barrier between mouths and potential disease, they’re also very important to dispose of properly, for the safety of anyone who might be forced to handle one. Tossing the mask anywhere but a garbage can is an inherently selfish act, because it’s saying other people

who will have to handle it don’t matter. This made it very horrifying to learn that people are just tossing them wherever, including boxes for the Marketplace. They’re also tossing gloves in there too, which are just as bad for the exact same reason. There’s one thing that belongs in those

boxes - The Marketplace, naturally - and they’re not meant to be some sort of weird garbage bin. But it’s selfish to just talk about ourselves here, and we’re not the only ones who have to deal with discarded masks. Turns out selfish people like throwing them all sorts of places where they don’t belong and other people have to pick up after them. Of course, it’s easy to accidentally drop something without noticing, and I’m not talking to people who lose their masks unintentionally. No, this goes out entirely to the people who just drop them on the ground

or stuff them somewhere like a newspaper box, the people who could easily just wait until they found a garbage can, but don’t, because they are too childish to take out their own garbage. In fact, putting them in such a place proves that people know perfectly well they need to put them somewhere, so why they don’t just find a garbage can is beyond me. Let’s be clear here, even the messiest among us should have some standards, and it should be a simple case to just toss out masks and disposable gloves in the one place they can go without affecting anyone else - an actual garbage can.

To save wild salmon Discovery Islands fish farms must go During their miraculous but perilous journey from inland spawning grounds, down rivers, out to sea and back again years later, Pacific wild salmon often must pass open-net coastal salmon farms. Here they swim through waters that can harbour parasitic sea lice and harmful viruses and bacteria. In its 2012 report, the Cohen Commission of Inquiry into the Decline of Sockeye Salmon in the Fraser River identified potential dangers to salmon migrating through the Discovery Islands between B.C.’s mainland and Vancouver Island. In response, the provincial government put a moratorium on new fish farm tenures in 2013. It was set to expire September 30, but B.C.’s snap election puts salmon farm policy in question. September 30 was also the Cohen Commission’s deadline to remove the 18 existing Discovery Islands fish farms unless government could show they pose no more than “minimal risk of serious harm” to wild Fraser sockeye. These farms have continually failed to meet the “minimal risk” threshold. The aqua-

culture industry’s own data show 33 per cent of farms exceeded the sea lice limit while juvenile salmon were migrating past this year. A Fisheries and Oceans Canada review failed to consider sea lice impacts or the cumulative effects of the nine pathogens it assessed. Although seven of the nine risk assessments showed some degree of uncertainty (with two showing high levels), the review concluded the farms pose no more than minimal risk and can stay. Ignoring the pathogens’ cumulative impacts provides an incomplete view. Not including sea lice risks defies logic. Biologists and First Nations submitted evidence showing lice continue to harm wild salmon, despite control efforts. Those controls rely on chemicals that can harm the environment, and lice are becoming resistant to them. A consortium of 101 First Nations, along with sport fishing groups and ecotourism operators, demanded the farms’ removal. Sea lice that target wild salmon occur naturally but weren’t a prob-

Science Matters lem before fish farms. In the ocean, fish can survive with a few lice attached. They fall off when the salmon return to freshwater. But sea lice thrive where thousands of salmon are penned in one place. They often attack a salmon’s head and neck and eat its skin, eventually killing it. They’re especially dangerous to juveniles migrating from freshwater to the ocean. Because salmon spend their lives inland and at sea, they beautifully illustrate the connections between ocean, freshwater and terrestrial ecology. They bring nitrogen from oceans to streams and rivers, where eagles, bears and other wildlife that feed on them spread it throughout the rainforests, providing nutrients that keep the forests strong. They are also

integral to First Nations cultures and diets. When wild salmon disappear, ecosystems and ways of life collapse. Besides sea lice and pathogens like Piscine orthoreovirus, farmed Atlantic salmon escapes can threaten wild salmon populations. In 2017, a pen in Washington state owned by Canadian company Cooke Aquaculture broke open, releasing 300,000 Atlantic salmon into the Pacific and nearby waterways. Some were caught and it appears most eventually died and didn’t mix with wild salmon, as they would have on the Atlantic coast. But the incident convinced the state to phase out salmon farms by 2025. Oregon, California and Alaska have banned them. We should do the same. This year’s Fraser River sockeye salmon

runs have been the lowest on record. To justify its continued existence in this sensitive environment, the aquaculture industry is sowing confusion around the uncertainty of evidence, but that doubt should inspire a precautionary approach. Feeding a growing human population is a challenge. We can’t continue plundering the seas and exhausting them of wild fish. But we must ensure that aquaculture is done in ways that don’t harm the environment. For fish farms, that likely means moving them to closed systems on land, which cost more, and growing less ecologically damaging species, like shellfish, which can have a lower profit margin. Short-term profits for big companies aren’t worth risking entire coastal ecosystems and ways of life. Amid the current climate and biodiversity crises, people must demand changes so food production meets human needs without destroying the natural world that feeds us. Let’s at the least get fish farms out of the way of migrating wild salmon. That means

removing them from the Discovery Islands now. David Suzuki is a scientist, broadcaster, author and co-founder of the David Suzuki Foundation. Written with contributions from David Suzuki Foundation Senior Writer and Editor Ian Hanington. Learn more at davidsuzuki.org.

CANORA-PELLY CANDIDATES Continued from Page 3 program with more availability in the rural areas that need it most.

Stacey Strykowski – New Democrats Everyone deserves access to high quality, timely health care no matter your postal code. The Sask Party’s cuts and underfunding have left our health system in crisis. Our emergency rooms are bursting at the seams, there are currently more than 28,000 people in Saskatchewan waiting for surgery and the number of people waiting for an MRI has doubled. Instead of ramping investment in our public health care system, the Sask. Party has doubled down on their failed Americanstyle MRI experiment. New Democrats will make smart investments so health care is available when and where you need it. Through investments in the frontlines of long-term and acute care, we will work to end understaffing on the frontlines of health care. We will also introduce legislation end the Sask Party’s patient-pay private MRI system that led to people waiting twice as long for an MRI. Q) COVID-19 is going to have health and economic impact beyond even the next year. What would your

government do to support people while the pandemic goes on, and what do we need to do for the coming recovery period?

Robert Hayes – Buffalo Party We would push for the removal of the National Transfer Payment Program as it is unfair for us. Each province must learn to work within their means. We will demand the finalization, construction and completion of the national pipelines. We will bring forward legislation for the removal of the unfair carbon tax, and bring legislation to make such a tax illegal in Sask. Preference will be given to Saskatchewan companies. We will bring forward legislation for corporate tax structure on start-up upgraders and refineries. We will work with municipalities for access for our natural resources.

Stacey Strykowski – New Democrats Saskatchewan families are worried--about their health, their kids, their businesses and their futures. They want leadership that relies on experts, especially as the risk of a second wave increases. Scott Moe and the Sask Party haven’t delivered the kind of leadership our province

needs to guide us through a pandemic. He’s flunked the back to school plan, failed the test on testing, and put our economy at risk. New Democrats are putting the health and safety of families first. We would invest in health care, make class sizes small in schools and take a raft of measures to jumpstart our economy-like start-up loans for new rural businesses, lowered SGI rates, a $10 million investment to help workers train and stay competitive and more. We know real leadership is about listening to public health experts and doing everything possible to support families and businesses so that Saskatchewan can come back stronger than ever. Q) With a continuing trend toward fewer rural residents, what will you do, if elected, to ensure agriculture remains a priority for the government?

Robert Hayes – Buffalo Party We will bring forward legislation for “Young Farmers Initiative” to create a program for Independent Sask. Farmers under 40 yrs. to be able to start up, invest and succeed. -legislation for a corporate tax structure for Continued on Page 6

Stacey Strykowski – New Democrats Producers and their families are up against a lot these days: international trade disputes, pandemic-related supply chain challenges and the constant threat of climate change. Producers know more than most that stewardship of our threatened natural resources are paramount, especially as a robust response to climate change is needed now more than ever. We cannot continue with the Sask Party’s broken plan of pitting economic growth and environmental sustainability against each other. A key plank in our platform is Renew Saskatchewan. Along with setting emissions targets, investments in energy efficiency,

and expanding wind, solar, and geothermal opportunities, Renew Saskatchewan will work with producers to strengthen the agricultural industry. Unlike Scott Moe and the Sask Party, who prefer to ignore problems, New Democrats are committed to listening to producers and their families and working with them to find innovative solutions to the challenges facing our Ag communities. Q) Why do you believe you are the best candidate to represent your riding over the next four years?

Robert Hayes – Buffalo Party I believe that I would be the best candidate because I am your average everyday Saskatchewan person. I have worked in various industries and have seen the struggles of the average person. I will stand up for the

people of Saskatchewan. I will listen to their concerns and push hard to have them resolved. I believe Saskatchewan can be a leader in our country, but we need the people of Saskatchewan to make it happen. We as the Buffalo Party will give Saskatchewan back to the people, where we can stand united for the better of our great Province. Let’s make Saskatchewan great again.

Stacey Strykowski – New Democrats We’ve been through a lot as a province in recent months as we grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic. In this challenging time, Saskatchewan people have stepped up, to keep each other safe and help each other out.

Plans are coming together for the return of the Canora Senior Cobras for the coming season of the new Sask East Hockey League (SEHL). Cal Homeniuk, team president and general manager, said the schedule has been announced for November and December. The first game for the Cobras is set for November 20 in Hudson Bay, followed by the home opener on November 21 versus the visitors from Ituna. The final game of the month will be on November 28 at Theodore. The Cobras will open December with a home tilt versus Hudson Bay on December 12. The pre-Christmas portion of the schedule will close out for the Cobras with a December 18 road trip to Ituna and a home game versus Theodore on December

19 to wind up the 2020 portion of the schedule. The SEHL is excited to announce the addition of two teams, according to a release. The Moosomin Rangers and Langenburg Warriors have been accepted into the league for the 2020-21 season bringing the overall membership to nine, joining the Rocanville Tigers, Esterhazy Flyers, Bredenbury Cougars, Ituna Avalanche, Theodore Buffalos, Canora Cobras, and Hudson Bay Hunters. It’s anticipated each team will play a 16 game schedule (eight home and eight away), although with the ongoing COVID19 situation, the league will be divided into two cohorts until the Christmas Break and a further determination on games will be made at that time, continued the release.

But even before the pandemic, life was getting harder as our province faced a recession. We’ve faced years of cuts and Canora-Pelly families are feeling stretched. They’re worried about how to pay the bills. And they’re worried about what four more years of cuts will do to our province. Now is not the time for more cuts. That’s not the right approach. It slows down our economy and it hurts people. I believe Canora-Pelly families deserve better. I’m running with a new vision for CanoraPelly one that will get our economy moving and help people through this challenging time. I’m running because I believe Canora-Pelly families deserve a government that invests in our province and its people first.

Legacy Co-op Pumps Funds into Kamsack Pool Courtesy of Kamsack Times It was another successful “Fuel Good Day” for Legacy Co-op. On September 15, ten cents from every liter of fuel purchased at the West Broadway and Palliser Way C-Store locations in Yo r k t o n ; the Churchbridge Home & Agro Centre, the Theodore Gas Bar and Kamsack C-Store was donated to local charities. The recipients of this year’s proceeds are The Salvation Army Food Bank in Yorkton, the Churchbridge Curling Club and the Kamsack Outdoor Swimming Pool Project. “Legacy Co-op chooses to support charities that help the communities they serve, something that is important to the company” said General Manager Bruce Thurston. A total of $6000.00 was raised, with each charity receiving a cheque for $2,000. This money will be added as part of the Kamsack pool’s Dive-In Campaign. “Having the support from a local business is very important for us and at this time, every donation that we get, gets us closer to that goal of the Dive-In Campaign,” said Dayna Guertin, Recreation Director. The

CO-OP has made a $2,000 donation as well as a grant of $2,500 to the pool. “We still have $64,000 left to raise and of course with that we are still accepting donations. No donation is too big or too small and we are issuing charitable donations over $20.” The total needing to be raised for the pool is $388,000, it will be a complete replacement of the pool with a new accessible pool. This new pool has spray features, a built in toddler area and is accessible with a gradual entry. “We are happy to be able to continue to raise money and support our local community initiatives, especially with what is going on in the world today,” said Richard Burym, Petroleum Division Manager. “We have been holding Fuel Good Day since 2017 and Legacy Co-op thanks everyone who stopped by for gas, enabling another successful opportunity to give back to our community.” Legacy Co-operative Association Limited is a local co-operative that has proudly served Southeastern Saskatchewan for 80 years. Today, Legacy Co-op serves more than 17,500 members — and many

more customers — in Yorkton, Kamsack, Churchbridge, Theodore, Ebenezer, Rhein, Langenburg, Esterhazy, Macnutt, Dubuc, where it operates food stores, gas bars, cardlocks and agro centres. Since 2010, Legacy Co-op has returned more than $34 million to its members in cash back and equity, while contributing over $1.5 million to community organizations and initiatives. More information is available at www. legacyco-op.crs .

Brace Yourself it's Coming! Emergency car kits: a checklist for winter It’s important to have a fully stocked kit in your car that allows you to safely deal with roadside emergencies. In winter, the key items in your emergency kit should include:

If you’re tired of sitting in a chilly car, treat yourself to greater comfort this winter. Here are five accessories that will help keep you warm. 1. REMOTE CAR STARTER Nobody likes getting into a cold car. With a remote car starter, you can safely turn on your car a couple of minutes before leaving so that it’s nice and toasty when you climb in. 2. HEATED CAR SEAT COVERS Heated car seat covers are simple to install and can make winter driving much more pleasant, especially if you have leather or vinyl seats. 3. HEATED STEERING WHEEL COVER People who don’t like wearing gloves while driving can opt for a heated steering wheel cover instead. This accessory puts a warm, breathable layer between your

• Water and non-perishable food (such as granola or energy bars) • Matches • A candle • Rags or paper towels (useful in the event of a leak or tire change) • Jumper cables • Tow rope • Flares or reflective safety triangles • Whistle (to signal your location in low-visibility conditions) • Traction aids • Snow broom, scraper and small shovel • Extra windshield washer fluid • Antifreeze • Wide-beam flashlight • Cell phone charger • Warm clothing for all passengers • One or more emergency blankets • A small toolbox (with a screwdriver, pliers, etc.) • A knife (in case a seat belt gets stuck, for example)

5 accessories for warm winter driving

• A fire extinguisher designed to put out gasoline and oil fires • A first aid kit (with scissors, antiseptic swabs, gloves, bandages, etc.) • An illustrated first aid manual In addition to having an emergency kit, it’s a good idea to sign up for roadside assistance. This way, you’ll be able to receive timely help in the event of an emergency.

hands and the wheel. Plus, heated steering wheel covers come in a variety of styles. 4. LEATHER GLOVES A good pair of driving gloves not only keeps your hands warm but also offers protection, flexibility and grip. Look for quality leather driving gloves with a polyester, wool or cashmere lining. 5. WINDSHIELD DE-ICER With a windshield de-icer, you can spend less time out in the cold scraping your windshield. De-icer formulas are able to melt away frost, ice and snow in a matter of seconds, allowing you to make quick work of an otherwise tedious chore. Finally, make sure to be careful on the road. The last thing you want is to get stuck standing out in the cold waiting for a tow truck.

Brace Yourself it's Coming! Winter car care: ďŹ ve ways to keep rust at bay It’s no secret that road salt is terrible for our cars. It does a great job melting ice and keeping roads safe during the winter, but it’s also a major catalyst for rust. Of course, putting your car in storage until the return of warmer days is the best way to keep it

safe from winter’s harsh effects, but if that isn’t an option, here are some ways you can help prevent rust from taking hold in the cold: 1. Have your car professionally rustproofed. This is especially recommended if you frequently park indoors. Drastic temperature variations, especially combined with the humid air in garages, provide rust with the perfect environment to thrive. 2. Slow down and keep your distances. It’s the best way to minimize contact with road debris (e.g. salt, sand, rocks from other cars). Your paint job will thank you! 3. Protect the body. Install mud aps, a grille guard (clean it often to avoid an accumulation of road salt, which could scratch the paint), or clear plastic strips to protect the lower body frame. 4. Wash your car often. It’s important to clean your vehicle periodically during the winter — even though the results won’t last long! —

to get rid of calcium deposits and other dirt. A dirty car is more likely to rust. Make sure to thoroughly dry everything off, and avoid washing your car when temperatures fall below -10 °C. 5. Apply surface wax. This will protect your paint job, but you’ll need to act fast: the procedure requires outdoor temperatures above 10 °C to be successful.

Behind the mask: Airbrushing for the NHL By Ben Bogstie Local Journalism Initiative Reporter (The Interior News) If you live in the Terrace area, you may have seen Mark Hart’s artwork before on the side of his truck. Or, perhaps you may have seen it on TV. The self-taught airbrush artist always tried to incorporate visuals into elementary and junior high school assignments. He took every art class he could and decided to pursue it as a career around the time he started high school. “Probably once I reached grade nine, grade ten it was between teaching and art, and I realized teaching, I wouldn’t have the patience with the kids,� he said. After high school, he attended art school in Vancouver, worked at Safeway, then went to art school in the U.K., just outside of London. He continued to practice airbrushing and got his first opportunity to paint a goalie mask for a local goalie. He said when he looks back, that first mask was not very good, and his work is now “night and day� in comparison. But it gave him a much needed break into the industry.

Mark Hart, local airbrush artist, stands beside artwork he completed on his truck on Sept. 23, 2020. “If it wasn’t for that one break I got, and I put it in the same context of a bar band, there’s probably bar bands in the world that are better than U2, better than the Rolling Stones, but they don’t get that break because there’s 10,000 other bands just like there are 10,000 other artists,� he said. “But I found that niche and a goalie here in town in the early 90’s, he was getting married and he had a white mask and I thought ‘hey, I can airbrush.’� Itech was one of the largest manufacturers of goalie equipment at the time. They needed a painter, and they gave him a chance.

“When you have somebody in your corner who’s got a name, that’s why I go back to the bar band, it’s like having a producer,� he said. For Hart, working with Itech was like a band signing with Sony Music. Being a certified Itech artist meant that if something happened to a mask or paint job he would do the painting as per the company’s warranty. It was proof his work was reputable and his name was sent out to NHL teams. At the peak of his career Hart was painting around 12 masks per month. “When Henrik Lundqvist came into the league I was the first one to paint his mask,� Hart

said. “When I saw my mask on TV for the first time I was like ‘holy crap, that was in my studio.’� Hart painted Vancouver Canucks goalie Cory Schneider’s mask, which made him feel like a sort of celebrity in B.C. But as the number of artists grew, the mask painting game turned political. Lundqvist switched to a painter in Sweden when his profile rose in the NHL and he became a star. “There were guys that would come and go at Itech and if they had their own guys you’d get pushed out of the way, like at one point Scott Clemmensen was a goalie for New Jersey at the time, again Itech at the time gave me him. I did up his work, he loved my stuff.� In his second year painting for Clemmensen, Hart mysteriously did not receive the mask for painting. Clemmensen didn’t know where the mask was either. Hart called Itech and found out four artists, including Hart, were off Itech’s list because a new goalie had signed with a different artist from Ontario. “So Scott, here’s a guy, NHL, doesn’t have time,

he’s a busy guy. He phoned up [Itech] said ‘look, I don’t know where that mask is, I don’t care if it’s at your painter’s, tell him to package it up and send it to Mark.’� “That’s when I thought ‘okay, this is how this goes,’� Hart said. Then, “A group in L.A. came into the league and said to all the goalies ‘look, we control your designs because the league said so.’� That meant no royalties for mask artists, whose work was featured on hockey cards, teeshirts, video games and more. Hart said that he didn’t care too much about royalties because having an NHL goalie on his portfolio was enough to draw in plenty of new customers. But playing the game was frustrating and tiring. “I’m just a painter, I just want to paint, I don’t want the politics,� he said. “There’s nothing you can do because if you [complain] about it they go: ‘You know what, we don’t need this, go away we’ve got 15 other guys knocking on our door,’ so you kinda have to cower and bow.� Since the days when Hart was one of the few certified painters in North America, the mask painting world has changed. There are far more artists, many using computer decalling do extremely fine details, which Hart said looks great, but it is not real painting. Hart has stepped back and lightened his workload in recent years, enjoying to paint as a way of relaxing and doing work on other things like guitars, motorcycles, automobiles, speaker covers, wall murals and even ride-on lawnmowers in addition to masks. Hart even painted Jon Montgomery’s skeleton helmet for his memor-

able gold medal win in the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver. “That was pretty cool because I have his bib, one of them, and he autographed it for me. Nice guy, I’ve got pictures when he was walking around the village he had his helmet in one hand and that jug of beer in the other,� he said. Hart’s career has offered him the chance to attend Hockey Hall of Fame ceremonies and meet some of the biggest names in the sport like Pat Quinn, Brian Burke, Glen Sather, Stan Mikita, Billy Smith, Denis Potvin, Mark Messier, Scott Stevens and Al MacInnis among others. “It’s given me a life that I’ve enjoyed more than I ever imagined, and even to this day those memories will never go away, and thank God my hands are still steady enough and I’m still doing artwork and I love it,� Hart said. “To anybody out there, if you get that one break, don’t do what some people do and go: ‘Somebody’s looking at me now, I’m going to sit back and watch it roll in,’ no no no, you got that break now you’ve got to take that next step and push doors open and they’ll open if you have that one person to give you that chance.� Hart plans to stay in Terrace when he retires from working part time at Safeway and painting professionally. He loves to fish and ski said he has a good group of friends in the area and that his children love it. “Even as my business grew and with the NHL, people would ask ‘why do you live in Terrace,’� he said. “There’s just something that draws you back here, and I remember there was an old saying where it was ‘once you’ve touched the Skeena River you’ll always come back.’�

Serving Surrounding Areas Since 1960

CALANCHIE - In loving memory of Harry, who passed away October 16, 1995 and Doris, who passed away April 28, 1965. When family ties are broken And loved ones have to part It leaves a wound that never heals And also broken hearts. But looking back with memories Upon the path we trod We bless the years we had with you And leave the rest to God. The rolling stream of life goes on But still the empty chair Reminds us of the face, the smile Of one who once sat there. We cannot have the old days back When we were all together But loving you and memories Will stay with us forever. -Deeply missed and always remembered, Shelley, Darlene and families.

The Family of the late Theodore Fiforowich would like to express their warm, heart-full thanks to relatives and friends for their expressions of kindness, sympathy and support during our most difficult time. We would like to send our gratitude and appreciation to staff at Pioneer Lodge, Ituna, staff at Aspen Bluff Village, Yorkton, who all took tremendous care of Ted while he was a resident in their facility. To Rev. Father Louis Nguyen of St. Gerard’s Roman Catholic Church, Yorkton , who officiated at Lunnville Cemetery, to Bailey’s Funeral Directors for support and professional service and to Mr. D. Wingrowich, Ituna who prepared Theodore’s final resting place. A special word of thanks to all people who helped, directly or indirectly, to the doctors, to nurses, to front-line workers, to social workers, to St. John Ambulance employees, to janitors at both facilities and to anyone missed. Your contribution made our loss more bearable and not in vain. Please accept this acknowledgement as an expression of our deepest gratitude. -Thank you, Fiforowich Family

Lady Gridders take win on the road The Yorkton Lady Gridders travelled to Estevan to face the Viragos Saturday and the veteran squad improved to 2-0 on the season with a win over the first-year Viragos team by a score of 65-6. The Lady Gridders were once again paced by the dynamic duo of Kasey McCombs and Brooke Hannotte who combined for seven touchdowns on the day. McCombs had TD runs of

42 and 70-yards to go along with TD receptions of 31, and 23-yards. Hannotte had TD runs of 30, 42, and 35-yards. To the trained eye though, the Lady Gridders offensive game plan had some hidden gems outside of those two players. Quarterback Bronwynn Money threw for two TD passes, both to Kasey McCombs, and ran another one in herself on a quarterback-keeper late

in the game. Rookie Hayley Chapple scored her first TD of her young career on an eight-yard sweep early in the game. The Orange Rush Offensive Line opened up holes for veteran Camryn Dubreuil as she played her first game at running back punishing the Viragos defense with strong runs up the middle of the field. The Lady Gridder defense stepped up in a big way, as the

Estevan offense showed more polish in their passing game than expected. While the Viragos quarterback showed poise in the pocket, she was continually hassled by the ‘Orange Crush’ defense. Linebacker Emma Werle was in the backfield multiple times picking up two sacks and a fumble recovery. Defensive end Tamara Exner continued to be a nuisance as well as she picked up

SASKATOON – The Vaccine and Infectious Disease OrganizationInternational Vaccine Centre (VIDO-InterVac) at the University of Saskatchewan (USask) has been awarded a grant of almost $830,000 from the COVID-19 Therapeutics Accelerator to determine the effectiveness of several antiviral compounds against COVID-19. The COVID-19 Therapeutics Accelerator was launched in March by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Wellcome, and Mastercard, with additional funding from a range of donors, to help speed the discovery and scale-up of effective treatments against COVID-19. Testing will occur in VIDO-InterVac’s worldclass containment Level 3-agriculture (CL3-Ag) facility using a hamster model of SARS-CoV-2 infection, a model meant to mimic human infections. “This important project is evidence of the collaborative global response to fight COVID19,� said VIDO-InterVac Director Dr. Volker Gerdts. “The ultimate goal is to develop a safe solution to end this pandemic as quickly as possible.� As a world leader in infectious disease research and vaccine development for humans and animals, VIDO-InterVac frequently works with companies and research institutes in the fight against COVID-19. VIDOInterVac is currently engaged with more than 80 organizations globally to test antivirals, vaccines, and other therapeutics. On the front lines of the global effort to develop a vaccine, VIDO-InterVac continues to advance its COVID-19 vaccine can-

Goulden said it starts with accommodations and food. “Whether you need a room for a night, or fine hotels and motels,” she said. “And our restaurants range from, providing burgers on the go as you travel, to those offering fine dining.” “There are of course private areas in some of the restaurants for small meetings as well.” When it comes to larger gatherings, that perfect wedding, or fraternal convention, Yorkton has the facilities for that too. The Painted Hand Casino, SIGN on Broadway, St. Mary’s Cultural Centre, Godfrey Dean Cultural Centre, Land Titles Building and the City’s own Gallagher Centre all have spaces to accommodate gatherings from just a few intimate friends, to a high level business gathering, to provincial conventions. “We’re fortunate in Yorkton to have such a range of facilities,” said Goulden. “It has allowed the city to be the site of events from the Parkland Expo and Sunflower Craft Show & Sale, the annual SUN convention and the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation convention.” Should someone need a little help planning an event in the city, Tourism Yorkton can help there as well. They have a Convention and Event Planning Guide and a Wedding Planning Guide on their website; www.tourismyorkton.com.

Stars for Saskatchewan

The Stars for Saskatchewan season for 2020-2021 has been cancelled due to regulations surrounding the COVID-19 Pandemic. Our concert venue, the Anne Portnuff Theatre is located in the Yorkton Regional High School which is unavailable to community groups at this time, as the Good Spirit School Division is exercising caution in the re-opening of

schools. The Yorkton Arts Council is concerned for our community’s health and is committed to providing opportunities to engage with the arts as it is safe to do so. We look forward to welcoming you back and for your continued support for live performance.

Community pARTners Gallery 2020-2021 Schedule: September 2020 – Back to School with Morgan Sheppard at the Community pARTners Gallery (online instead of at the Yorkton Public Library). As students head back to school with new limits due to COVID-19 restrictions Morgan Sheppard shares with us her paintings created over the past few months.

through the Organisation of Saskatchewan Arts Council’s Arts on the Move program. Sylvia Ziemann: Accidental Utopia is a monographic exhibition of new paintings by Treaty 4/Regina-based artist Sylvia Ziemann. In the world of Accidental Utopia, Ziemann paints a menagerie of fantastical characters- figures that are playful combinations of human, animal, insect, and plant- welcoming us into an imaginative realm. In this world, everything and everyone has its place. The artist affirms a philosophy of simplicity that is restorative, particularly in a contemporary context of pervasive social media and the often troubling news on tv. December 1, 2020 – January 29, 2021 – “Faith of Our Fathers” A Journey to Jarslaw – by local artists Keith & Debbie Hayward at the Community pARTners Gallery ( online instead of at the Yorkton Public Library). March – April 2021 – Diggers –OSAC Arts on the Move. Diggers showcases humankind’s obsession with altering our habitat for ease of mobility, pleasure, and comfort. Goretzky has a fascination with the heavy-duty equipment that was used in the transformation of Wascana Lake in Regina. The sheer size of the equipment and the magnitude of the project was impressive to the artist; the removal of 1.3 million cubic metres of mud, at a cost of million, was an interesting concept. As a species, we have created machinery specially designed for executing construction tasks like earth moving operations. Although, we are transforming the earth for our own particular tastes, nature is ever present. Nature shows itself as a small plant pushing its way between the cracks in a sidewalk or a jack rabbit bolting across an asphalt parking lot. Nature is ever present and waiting to burst forth and reclaim the world. We walk a thin line with our obsession of transformation and conservation of the natural world which surrounds us. Goretzky hopes that the viewer leaves with a sense of thei actions and how we end p reshaping the world.

Grandstand getting major upgrade Calvin Daniels Staff Writer The City of Yorkton is moving forward with an agreement to cost-share rehabilitating the grandstand in partnership with the Yorkton Exhibition Association (YEA). The request to undertake the partnership was made by the YEA. Darcy McLeod Director of Community Development, Parks and Recreation, with the City, explained, “following discussions with a local contractor, information was provided to the Yorkton Exhibition that estimated that a maximum budget of $600,000 would provide a product that meets their needs and that of the community. After further discussion on a funding plan, both Administration and the Yorkton Exhibition have agreed that a 50 per cent cost share is appropriate based on the intent of the Yorkton Exhibition’s initial letter of support, in which they requested an interest free loan that would be paid back over a 15 year period,” he continued. While the YEA was ready to pay for 50 per cent of the project costs they had asked for an interest free loan from the City to do so, with the money to be paid back over 15 years, said McLeod. “They have also committed an additional $30,000 toward the project to meet their 50 percent portion of the funding required,” he added. As for the City portion McLeod said they can pay for the project “with no impact on taxes or borrowing.” The project is being funded with proceeds from the lease of the land where Tim Horton’s is located on the grounds of the Gallagher Centre. This annual lease amount is placed into a

reserve account, with the intent, (which was agreed to by both the City and the Yorkton Exhibition at the time the lease was developed), to invest these funds into improvements for the out buildings and grounds of the Gallagher Centre. Previous repairs to the Grandstand were funded from this reserve account, as were the improvements made to the Industrial building in 2012/13. A total of $115,000 is currently in the capital budget for Grandstand repairs. At the time of the decision Councillor Quinn Haider asked if the lease money could have gone elsewhere. “It’s (the grandstand) the number one priority for us out there (the fairgrounds) right now,” said McLeod. Coun. Darcy Zaharia said he liked the proposal since a city-owned asset was getting an upgrade with the Exhibition Association paying half the cost. “I very much support it,” he said. Mayor Bob Maloney liked the 50-cent dollars, adding Council has not turned down such projects in his time on Council. “I think this is a terrific project,” he said. Coun. Ken Chyz wanted to know if the work would be done in time for the summer fair in 2021? “We’re prepared to go to tender this week,” said McLeod, adding it is hoped it is done by spring or summer 2021, depending on if the work begins this fall.

Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo 2021 The Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo postponed their 9th annual outdoor event in 2020 because of COVID. We are hopeful 2021 will bring us a chance to host our 9th annual event April 17th and 18th, 2021. The Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo is a premier outdoor event in Canada. The Parkland Outdoor show has been a “must see event” for the outdoor enthusiast. There is something to see for everyone who enjoys the outdoors. The event which launched in 2012, found immediate success because it highlights something many in the region are interested in. We are hopeful this year’s Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo will be held on Saturday, April 17th and Sunday, April 18th, at the Gallagher Center and Yorkton Curling Rink. There is also a special “Kick-Off Party” Friday, April 16th.” The meet and greet gives exhibitors, speakers and the general public a chance to meet, network and share in a laid back setting. We are very happy to offer such an event,” said Darren Wandy Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo President. “In additional to over 100 exhibitors at the show and expo, first class celebrity speakers, our demo areas we also offer a 3-D archery shoot, live product demo area and a Banquet the Saturday evening of the event,” said Wandy. The Banquet is held Saturday, April 17th, at St. Mary’s Cultural Center. Tickets will be on sale starting in December, which makes a great Christmas gift. Entry into the Outdoor Show and Expo is $10.00 at the door per day per person. With your paid entry you are entered in for a chance of some awesome door prizes. The Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo is a non-profit organization. Money raised from the event goes to help raise money for youth archery and the hope of building a multi-purpose facility with the main focus being archery. Wandy states, “Our main focus is kids. To date The Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo has donated over $100,000 to youth archery programs and related outdoor related efforts.” Visit our website for speakers and speaker info and updated features that will be at our show. The Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo is a family, age, and gender friendly event! The goal of the Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo is to showcase something for everyone, whether it is the archery, muzzle or

rifle hunter, the trapper, the fishing enthusiast, or even those who just love the outdoors and its activities such as camping and hiking. For more information contact Darren Wandy at 306-5210429 or email parklandoutdoorshow@hotmail.com or www. parklandoutdoorshow.com

Easter Seals Snowarama February 27, 2021 will be the 44th Annual Easter Seals Snowarama in Yorkton! The Snowarama Committee is working diligently to ensure a safe event within the many restrictions the pandemic has imposed. Details will be announced as the event date gets closer. John Denysek, Regional Director with SaskAbilities in Yorkton noted, “Since Snowarama began in 1977 over $2.5 million has been raised for individuals experiencing disability in the province.” Participants and riders have travelled from all of the Prairie Provinces and as far as B.C. to attend Snowarama and help people attend Easter Seals Programs. In 2020 we hosted the 43rd Anniversary of Snowarama. It was a wonderful celebration and we are very grateful for the countless supporters that have contributed to Snowarama’s long running history; a history founded on the support of riders, donors, volunteers, corporate sponsors, and the media. In the summer of 2020 we had to pause our in person Summer Fun & Camp Easter Seal programs; there is a saying at camp, “Whether in dark or stormy weather, Camp Easter Seal will keep us together.” Virtual programming took place and individuals experiencing disability were still able to enjoy Camp Easter Seal & Summer Fun, visit with friends,

and celebrate summer! We also utilized this time to complete several yard and facility upgrades at Camp Easter Seal. The funds raised support: •Camp Easter Seal; a fully wheelchair accessible summer camp •Summer Fun Program; an urban day camp focused on recreational and leisure activities in the community for children experiencing disability •Adaptive Technology Services; computers and technology are used to minimize the impact of having a disability. Snowarama is a Yorkton tradition! For over 40 years riders have collected pledges, rode beautifully groomed and marked snowmobile trails, received sponsored meals and fuel for their sleds, and a ticket to the Awards Banquet. Deana Jesmer, Community Relations Coordinator with SaskAbilities says it is the participants who make the event a success. “The community involvement and continued support have made Snowarama the long term event that it is,” she said. “We are proud to report that a handful of riders that participated in the very first Snowarama still ride and have great stories to share. Many of the riders have been supporting Easter Seals for over 20 years and regardless of snow conditions they attend and show such dedication. There are generations of family members that attend-it feels like a reunion each year!” The event is overseen by a dedicated and diverse group of volunteers who give unselfishly of their time and talents to make the event the success that it is. We are fortunate as a charitable organization to be associated by these outstanding individuals. Call 1-833-444-4126 for more information or online at www. snowarama.ca

Crokicurl If you are seeking something new to try in terms of wintertime fun, then you might want to check out two new crokicurl locations in the city. Yorkton Parks and Recreation installed the crokicurl rings at two locations in the city; Silver Heights Park and Heritage Heights Park. The rules of the game are pretty straight forward. The game uses what appear to be the rings of a curling sheet, with added ‘pegs’ that make it closer to the board game crokinole. Players slide wooden ‘stones’ and try to get them into a small depression in the middle of the rings, or to knock an opponent’s stone out of the rings. The wooden ‘stones’ are provided at both locations. After that it is basically the standard crokinole rules. The idea for the combined game seems to have started in Winnipeg, but has become popular in a lot of communities across the country.

Yorkton Cross Country Ski Club Update

The Yorkton Cross Country Ski Club maintains trails on the Deer Park Golf Course during the winter months. With the cooperation of our volunteer groomers and the City of Yorkton the club regularly grooms the trails and opens the clubhouse as a warm up shelter and a place to rent equipment on a first come first serve basis. While Cross Country or Nordic skiing has always been a great way to get exercise and enjoy the outdoors in the winter. In this pandemic world we are in right now, people are looking for safe activities that can help them get outside while still practising physical distancing. Being that this is easily accomplished while skiing outdoors, many enthusiasts expect this will add to the surge in popularity of cross-country skiing more than ever. The Yorkton Cross Country Ski Club has over one hundred members and families that get out and enjoy the trails and activities. The club provides a number of opportunities for youth and adults to learn to ski. Last year over 30 youth participated in the Club’s Jackrabbit
