Education service agreement between Cote and GSSD signed

“It takes a lot of work to get here,” Chief George Cote of Cote First Nation, said during an education service agreement sign ing ceremony held at the Kamsack Comprehensive Institute on Oct. 11.

Much has happened since the last agreement was signed 40 years ago, especially the truth and reconciliation calls to action, Cote said, refer ring to the partnership with the Good Spirit School Division (GSSD) so that “western meth ods of education can be coupled with traditional teachings” which will help revive First Nation culture and language.

“We are at an under standing regarding what we can do together for a better understanding of each other and an end to racism in schools,” he said, mentioning Isabel Kulak, a Kamsack stu dent, who had worn a rib bon dress which resulted in nation-wide attention.

Cote said school prin cipals are assuring topnotch education with the support of parents and grandparents and said the agreement will open doors to ensure First Nation culture and lan guage within the GSSD curriculum.

“With the new agree ment, children can look forward to and feel proud of who they are,” he said.

The ceremony, which was to have been held outside in front of the teepee that had been erected on the KCI grounds, was forced into the school’s gymnasium because of rain.

With Quintin Robertson, GSSD direc tor of education, as the emcee, the ceremony began with a prayer

offered by Vincent Cadotte, a Cote council lor and “knowledge keep er,” and a performance of a drum group headed by Robert Severight, a Cote councillor.

A member of the Cote education port folio, Severight wel comed everyone to the “historic” ceremony and reminded everyone that Treaty 4 that was signed in 1874 had much to do with education of the children and the chil dren yet to be born. He said the drum group would perform a flag song and then a victory song because the agree ment is a victory.

The unity shown by the drum group signifies the unity needed for this agreement, Robertson said after Severight’s group concluded.

Dignitaries intro duced, in addition to Chief Cote, Vincent Cadotte and Robert Severight, were Chief Isabel O’Soup of the Yorkton Tribal Council, Jaime Johnson, chair of the GSSD board, and Cote First Nation council lors Delvina Whitehawk, Brian Shingoose, Joseph Cote and Pamela Whitehawk.

Cote First Nation and GSSD staff attending included: Faith Watson, executive director of the Treaty Education Alliance; Valerie Cote, Education Co-ordinator for Cote First Nation; Mick Parmer, Superintendent of Schools for GSSD; Mark Lucas, KCI principal; Laura Reilkoff, KCI viceprincipal; Karie Thomas, Victoria School princi pal; Jonas Cote, princi pal of Chief Gabriel Cote Education Complex; Jesse Armstrong and Clorice Delorme, Indigenous Student Success Consultants;

Andrew Quewezance, cultural advocate for GSSD; Cliff Crane, Cultural co-ordinator for YTC (Yorkton Tribal Council) and GSSD; Tiare Laporte, Indigenous stu dent success lead for KCI and GSSD, and Lana Kulak, Indigenous com munity worker for GSSD.

Thanking Vincent Cadotte for his prayer and remarks and Robert Severight for the drum songs, Chief Isabel O’Soup said that “there were no drums when I went to school.

“Now we are more aware,” O’Soup said. “It makes me proud.”

She commended the GSSD for its good efforts to educate both Indigenous and nonIndigenous children and offered “hats off” to the parents and teachers.

“Racism starts in the home,” O’Soup said, add ing that she loved see ing the teepee on the school ground outside. “I was proud to see it and the children feel proud because it helps give them enthusiasm to learn.”

As chief of the six nations in the YTC, O’Soup commended those responsible for working to make things

better and asked them to “keep up the good work.”

“We’re just beginning to understand the signifi cance to the treaties,” Robertson said. “Further work needs to be done.”

Robertson said that the essence of the docu ment being signed is

about accountability of the GSSD and Cote First Nation and the respon sibility of service provid ers.

“We will show up and do the work if criticized or praised,” he said.

Robertson joined Chief Cote, Delvina

Whitehawk and Jaime Johnson as they each signed the agreement document.

All attending were thanked and everyone joined in a round dance as the drum group per formed. A light lunch concluded the ceremony.

Bluegrass star Jake Vaadeland marches to the beat of his own banjo

When Jake Vaadeland strolls out on stage in his vintage suit and slickedback hair carrying his guitar and banjo, he has a point to prove: bluegrass music isn’t just a relic of times gone by.

Instead, with his innovative compositions and effervescent passion for the genre, Vaadeland makes the case that the bluegrass era is happen ing right here, right now.

Vaadeland, 19, who was born in the Big River area and is now based in Cut Knife, Sask., has gravitated to the stage since he was old enough to reach a microphone.

“I was probably three or four years old,” he recalled of the first time he sang in front of a crowd. “I had a cow boy hat on, and a buttonup shirt, and it was my grandparents’ 40th anni versary. And they left the mic alone on stage.

“So of course I went up there and got in on that and started singing Johnny Cash.”

Now, barely a dec ade and a half after that

first impromptu show, Vaadeland is on tour with his band Jake Vaadeland and the Sturgeon River Boys promoting their new album Everybody But Me.

“I’m excited about the new sound,” Vaadeland said. “It’s a little unique, compared to the other albums. We get a little more rockabilly and add more of the steel guitar in there, and snare drums, and stuff like that.”

The band features Joel Rohs on guitar, Jaxon Lalonde on banjo, Stephen Williams on upright bass and Andy Beisel on steel drums.

At every show, Vaadeland is in the mid dle of the action, keeping the audience hanging on every word and note.

“I really enjoy the talking up on stage,” he said. “It adds a lot more pressure to me during the show, because I know I have to make sure I can make people laugh between the songs, but I’ve never liked dead air. It makes me really scared and nervous if there’s not constant noise going on, either from my music or the people laughing.”

Vaadeland was raised in an old-fashioned home

— “old-fashioned as in furniture,” he says. “The values were not oldtimey values” — and has always felt most at home in the aesthetics of the 1940s and 50s.

After a brief, uncom fortable stint of trying to dress like everybody else, in “cookie-cutter t-shirts and jeans,” Vaadeland was wearing his trade mark vintage suits to school by the time he reached eighth grade.

In his spare time, he visits the log cabin he built with hand tools out by Big River, or works on his models and mini atures. Even his voice, with strong hints of a mid-Atlantic accent, is vintage.

“I do sort of feel, sometimes, like I’m from another time, like I’m out of time,” Vaadeland said. “All of a sudden I’ll come into the city (and) some times people do stare, which is really too bad because, in the moment, I’ve forgotten about it already.

“I’ve forgotten that I’m dressed this way. I’ve for gotten that I’m different. And then all of a sud den people remind me that I’m not the same,

and maybe I look fancy or I’m overdoing it, and they wonder if I’m going to a wedding or a funer al when really I’m just going to the gas station.”

But Vaadeland has never let the stares or questions turn him away from the kind of person he wants to be — in char acter, in aesthetic, or in music.

When he’s writing new songs, he always comes back to his roots — blue grass, rockabilly and a bit of rock and roll; Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley and Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs, celebrating the sounds of mid-century Americana while making them his own.

“It’s just so real — I always thought of it that way,” he said. “Same with jazz music, too, as I think of it. Their wind instru ments, their horns, their drums are the way they are — it’s making real noise.”

Vaadeland’s band mates say that he, too, is the real deal.

“When I first met Jake, I thought maybe the whole thing was a bit of a shtick,” said bandmate Stephen Williams. “But the more you get to know him, you know that’s just

Jake. And he’s great.”

Since joining the band, Williams says the “high-energy, fast-paced” group has been a lot of fun.

“Listening to all the talent that’s in front of me, I just can’t help but dance around and have a great time,” he said.

And at every show, Vaadeland looks forward to seeing more people his

age get in on the fun.

“Young people are who I really want to reach out to, because I want to make my living doing this for the rest of my life — which means I need young people to enjoy it, if I want to be playing 70 years down the road,” he said. “And I’ve noticed that, when they do come to the show, they do really enjoy it.”

Gwen Machnee of Canora has been award ed the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal, celebrating the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s accession to the throne.

“It is a great honour, and I am still very sur prised to have been nom inated,” said Machnee. “Some amazing people have been nominated for this award and I am delighted to have been included.”

The awards cere mony took place at the Legislative Building in Regina on Oct. 14, where Machnee received her medal along with 61 other recipients from across Saskatchewan.

According to informa tion from the program for the ceremony: “In Canada, since the 1935 Silver Jubilee of King George V, commem orative medals have been awarded to recognize all manners of service to Crown and Country- be

it at the local, provincial, national or international levels.

“As part of the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty ascending the throne as Queen of Canada, this long trad ition of creating com memorative medals has continued. In the absence of a Federal Platinum Jubilee Medal program, six provinces have estab lished Jubilee Medals of their own- each with the same ribbon, overall

design and criteria. The design of the medal was approved by Her Majesty The Queen at Windsor Castle on May 17.

“The Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal is a tangible way for Saskatchewan to hon our Her Majesty for her service to Canada, while also recognizing the sig nificant contributions and achievements by Saskatchewan citizens.”

Machnee was invited to the ceremony by Laura

Ross, Minister for Parks, Recreation and Culture and the Minister for the Status of Women.

“I received an invi tation to the ceremony in the mail on Sept. 30,” shared Machnee. “I was completely surprised, I had no idea how it hap pened or who nominated me for the award and I kept thinking that there were so many much more deserving people than me.

Laycock back in Saskatchewan with new curling crew

The curling landscape in Canada has definitely changed heading into the new season with many of the top teams changing their line-ups.

The changes include Steve Laycock, originally from Saltcoats and now in Saskatoon, assembling a fresh foursome including Chris Haichert, Shaun Meachem, and Brayden Stewart.

Laycock said team changes are a natural as teams readjust in the first year leading up to the next Olympics.

And, he said it’s likely there will be more chan ges after this season as some of the new configur ations hit some bumps in terms of on-ice success, or off-ice compatibility.

In assembling his new team Laycock said skill of course mattered.

“At a minimum they have to be good,” he said.

But, he also wanted to be sure the players had

AWARD

the same vision in terms of goals.

“Are we compatible to play together?” he asked, reminding you need com monalities beyond curl ing because you can only talk about the game over breakfast, lunch and sup per when on the road at events all winter, so much, and then you need other topics of interest.

And road time is on the upswing as the sea son has just progres sively gotten longer and longer. Now it goes right into April.

For players such as

In the program it was stated that Machnee was honoured “For contributions in the Arts/Business Sector.”

The ceremony began with the singing of O Canada followed by a short introduction from the emcee and a brief address by Minister Ross. The presentations were made in alphabetical order. Each recipient’s name was called as they walked onto the stage, shook hands with the Minister, received their medal, had their picture taken and returned to their seat. The ceremony ended with the singing of God Save the King.

Machnee said the program was followed by a reception.

“Cucumber and ham and cheese sandwiches were served, with cookies and the official dessert of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, Jubilee pudding, a trifle made with orange. There was tea, coffee and punch to drink, all served on Royal Albert china.”

There are 7,000 Saskatchewan Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee medals being awarded this year.

Gwen Machnee of Canora was at the Legislative Building in Regina on Oct. 14 to receive the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal, which was cre ated to celebrate the 70th anniver sary year of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s accession to the throne.

CALVIN DANIELS Sports

Laycock there is also jug gling the season between skipping his traditional four-player team and throwing stones in the new mixed doubles world.

“There’s starting to be a lot of mixed doubles events too,” said Laycock.

While playing both means more events to get to, Laycock said he finds it a refreshing change, noting in mixed-doubles much of the responsibil ity of sweeping falls to him, a completely dif ferent skill set and even muscle set being used, compared to holding the broom as skip in fourplayer game.

“It’s a nice switch between the two,” he said.

In time Laycock said players are likely to be forced to pick one game to focus on, but that time is not quite yet.

“There ‘s enough dif ference between mixed doubles and four-per son,” he said. “It’s tough to be effective in both.”

In addition to differ

ent skill sets, qualifying for world and Olympic events and based on points, and that is likely to push players to com pete only in one of the two disciplines, said Laycock.

Even in the off sea son Laycock said teams aren’t that far away from the game either. He said players spend a chunk of the time “trying to get the body into good shape.”

And then of course there are the off-ice efforts which go into securing sponsorships to help make it possible to be on the road through the actual curling season, added Laycock.

While the season has changed, so too has the game with the free guard rule making the game much more strategic.

“The shots used to be a lot more simple and straight forward,” offered Laycock.

As for the season now under way, the chance to top the province might be a little easier because perennial favourite Matt Dunstone is now curling out in Manitoba, but that still leaves defending champ Colton Flasch team to deal with.

“We definitely have the capability to knock them off,” said Laycock. “I’m really excited about

Beds open at Bruno’s Place

A new low barrier emergency shelter has finally opened its doors with the first client taking a bed Oct. 6.

The facility, known as Bruno’s Place, had been expected to open in early sum mer at its 139 Dominion Avenue loca tion, but there were delays in renova tions pushing the opening until earlier this month.

The facility has 10 beds, as allowed by the city, said shelter coordinator Angela Chernoff, adding they have already “almost been at full capacity. We started with one and it’s been grad ually going up.”

As the temperatures drop with win ter in the offing, Chernoff expects there will be a growing demand for the lim ited beds.

“I would anticipate that for sure,” she said.

The beds at the shelter are how ever temporary in nature, reminded Chernoff, explaining they are for use by people needing an immediate place to sleep, or face a night on the street.

However, people should not expect to use the bed regularly, she added.

In fact, the plan is to work with cli ents to help them access services from other sources so they can transition from needing an emergency bed.

“We’ll assist them with working out their next step. We just want to be that bridge,” said Chernoff.

In that regard Chernoff said past a first night emergency clients are expected to show some effort in work ing toward improving their own situa tions with the help of shelter staff and other agencies in the community, said Chernoff.

“In order to stay here they need to be working toward their goals,” she said. “We want it to be temporary (here).”

our chances.”

That said Laycock admitted “maybe we’re underdogs,” which he added is not a bad thing.

“There have been years where it was win, or bust,” he said. This year going into provincial playdowns a bit below the radar with Team Flasch at the top will be a good motivator, and also means playing with a little less pressure in the team, said Laycock.

To ready for the bigger games in the new year Laycock said his team plans to go at it a bit dif ferently, playing less big events, while still getting into enough action to hone things.

To mark the milestone Yorkton This Week is digging into its archives and pulling out a random Terrier-related article from the past five decades of reporting on the team, and will be running one each week, just as it originally appeared.

This feature will appear weekly over the entire season in the pages of The Marketplace.

Week #5 comes from Nov. 1 2006.

Local fans attending the World Junior Hockey Challenge in Yorkton will have a familiar face to cheer for on Team Canada West.

Chad Nehring, in his third year with the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League Yorkton Terriers is among the 22 players selected to the team.

The gritty forward said as of last Thursday, the feeling of excitement for the tournament was really starting to build.

“It starts today,” he said during an interview at Harvest Pizza in the city. “I don’t have to think about Terrier games now, so my focus switches over to Canada.”

A night earlier Nehring scored the game opening goal in a 5-4 Terrier shootout win over Notre Dame. He will miss the next seven Terrier games as he battles with Team Canada West.

Nehring said making the Team West roster was a big moment, one of several the 19-year-old has already enjoyed as a Junior player.

It was a feeling of excitement Nehring quickly shared with his parents in his nearby hometown of Springside, SK..

“When I called, mom was freaking out like nor mal,” he said with a smile. “Dad said he was proud of me for making this, especially with it being in Yorkton, where he can get to watch.”

Nehring said he recognizes how special playing in front of hometown fans, friends and family will be,

50 YEARS Looking back at the Yorkton Terriers

“even though I didn’t get to fly anywhere,” he added with another smile. “Definitely, it will be fun playing in front of family and friends.”

Playing in the SJHL city should also help the six players selected from the league to Team West, said Nehring, because five of them have played in the Farrell Agencies Arena before so are familiar with it. Only Estevan goaltender Guillaume Perusse, in his first year in the league, has not played in Yorkton.

For Nehring the WJHC will add to an already impressive Junior hockey resume including being a member of the back to back Credential Cup Championship Terrier teams the last two seasons. This May he was also with the Terriers as they attended the Royal Bank Cup Tournament in Brampton, ON., where the team lost in the final.

Nehring was also a participant in the inaugural Canadian Junior ‘A’ Hockey League Prospects game which was held in Yorkton Dec. 7, 2005.

This summer Nehring was also part of Team North America which took part in the 2006 InterSport Cup in Ljungvy, Sweden in August. Upon his return from the tournament Nehring told Yorkton This Week, it “was really, really different. It was just like the stereotype of European play. They were good skaters and stick handlers, but not really into the grinding kind of game.”

The experiences Nehring has enjoyed are a big reason he has been selected to wear one of the Assistant Captain ‘A’s for Team West. He said it’s an honour to be among the captains on a team where

14 players wear letters with their league teams. In talking to the coaches about the decision he said they felt winning back-to-back championships with the Terriers suggested he would “know how to lead.”

Nehring said he believes his experiences will be an asset in helping to fill a role on Team Canada West.

“It’s going to be more of a (competitive) game than the prospects game,” said Nehring, “That game was more individuals to show what they can do.”

As for playing in Europe this summer, Nehring said, “I think that will help out a lot knowing their style of play – most European teams are the same.”

With Canadian pride on the line in the upcoming tournament Nehring said, “more guys will get into their roles.”

While he has talked to team coaches, the Terrier forward admitted he hasn’t been told what role he will be expected to fill. “I assume I’ll be checking against the top lines, providing some energy.”

The top two Team West lines are likely to be the scoring units, with the three and four lines “crashing their ‘D’ and hitting. We want to make them not want to go back for the puck. That will open ice for our goal scorers,” said Nehring.

Offensively, Nehring may chip in a few points too. Last season in the SJHL he scored 28 goals and 29 assists for 57 points in 55 games. Forty-eight of his 57 points came at even strength, making him one of the top five-on-five players in the SJHL. He continued his consistent play into the post season when he tallied 18 points on 18 games.

Whatever the role he is handed, Nehring said he’s ready for it, adding there is only one goal – winning a gold medal “to be part of something special with Team Canada.”

The moment would be even sweeter for Nehring accomplishing the feat on home ice. “Definitely there will be a good atmosphere if our team can get to the final and win it,” he said. “It would be pretty special.”

Three running in Sturgis byelection

The Town of Sturgis residents will be going to the polls on Nov. 9 to cast their ballet for one of the three candidates who have placed their names in the ring for council.

Kim Macleod, who moved to Sturgis over 12 years ago, has a firm belief that the commun ity has been moving in a positive direction.

“It’s hard to compare any small town’s present situation with the past when there was an abun dant rural population supporting our town and economy. With some well-placed promotions we can add businesses and increase our popula tion to ensure that our community will thrive and prosper,” stated MacLeod. “Sturgis will continue to be a great place to live and raise a family or simply retire and enjoy the many amenities our area offers.

“Being the owner/ operator of KBM Electric

in Sturgis has given me an opportunity to be familiar with our town’s infrastructure and the challenges faced every day to keep everything running and functioning. Supporting our town and the work that is required from everyone is an abso lute necessity.

“I believe I can be an effective addition to work with our Town Council and Town of Sturgis employees to address any concerns and come up with reason able and timely solutions for present and future problems we will face as citizens and business owners. Without every one’s support our town will struggle. Let’s work together and build a bet ter today and tomorrow,” Macleod concluded.

Chad Rose is a busi ness owner who has operated Autumn’s Place in Sturgis for past three years, and has grown up and attended school in Sturgis and continues to reside with his family in the community. “I want to step up and get more

involved in the commun ity and offer a fresh new set of ideas and views to help the betterment of the community,” said Rose.

“I currently am a board member of the Gateway Co-op Sturgis branch and am a certified National Construction Safety Officer. I feel I have a lot to offer and have a good understanding of

how everything operates from town maintenance to working with council to help the commun ity grow into the future. It is very important to listen to each taxpayer resident and offer that one voice on council. I am a firm believer in not sitting on the sidelines and getting involved if I want to see any chan

ges implemented,” con cluded Rose. (No photo of Rose was available at press time)

Dean Harris has lived in Sturgis for the last six years and offers a new fresh face with new ideas. He has been a business owner for 35 years and has been working at Paul’s Drug Store in Preeceville for the past three years as a pharmacist. He is involved in the Sturgis Regional Park as a board member and has some experience as a council lor as he sat on the Town of Rosetown council for a few years. He also is part owner of the Pensacola Ice Flyers hockey team in Florida.

“In the past, I have been asked several times to put my name in for council and this is a perfect time to step up and get involved in the community,” said Harris. “The current council on the whole is well organ ized but I feel I can bring some new ideas to coun cil. I am here to listen to all residents’ concerns

and offer that voice to council. There are a few things that I would like to see implemented. One thing would be to utilize an existing empty build ing and turn it into a business centre. Another would be to offer sus tainability housing for younger families to help encourage them to move to and stay in Sturgis. We have a great commun ity hall and I would like to see it utilized more. I would like to work on the town’s signage on the entrance into town. When people come through or into our town, I would like them to be excited. If elected, I will be very approachable to listen to the public’s concerns,” concluded Harris.

Players need to guide game developments

If there is one thing access to the Internet has cre ated, it is a minefield of time sinks waiting to suck the unsuspecting web traveller into a dizzying spiral usu ally taking that traveller well off the topic they were initially interested in.

As readers will know this space was recently dedicated to a new book on jetan by Fredrick Ekman Jetan: The Martian Chess of Edgar Rice Burroughs.

Connecting with Ekman online was interesting of course, getting to know a bit about the process of writ ing a book on a game that while notable because of where it originated from, is still quite obscure.

To remind, the game is somewhat well-known, if lit tle played, among science fiction fans since jetan was invented – well I suppose maybe more accurately was sort of invented -- by author Edgar Rice Burroughs for his 1922 novel The Chessmen of Mars. I say sort of because the text regarding the game in the book have caused some discussion over the years about how the game is played.

The game might be more widely played if there was a standardized ruleset, but that simply doesn’t exist.

Even in the material from Burroughs himself, the movement of some pieces reads one way in the story text, and differently in the appendix.

MEEPLE GUILD (YORKTON)

meeple.guild@gmail.com

And even where there are commonalities they are often open to interpretation, which makes standard izing rules a challenge.

In a social media chat with Ekman I suggested what would be great is a ’World Jetan Society’.

The ’collective’ of a society could establish a stan dardized ruleset and that would be at least a starting place to build interest in a game.

Weirdly though, while we live in a world of instant contact through emails, social media and zoom calls, it seems a rather daunting task to create global span ning organizations for board games today.

I suggest weirdly given the propenets of chess,

Othello, backgammon and other ’older’ games man aged to create world-spanning organizations in the age of snail mail and expensive long distance calling.

It is probably the issue faced by fraternal groups today. Clubs such as the Lions and Kinsmen often find attracting active members more challenging today because people are so busy, or have so many options to occupy their free time.

So, while the Internet might help jetan grow, it still needs a few dedicated people to make it happen.

Often efforts are made, but sadly do not last.

For example, there was apparently an American Chu Shogi Association but the only web link found has been inactive since about 2000, and Chu Shogi is a venerable old game worth preserving too.

Of course that could be a question to ask in terms of jetan too, is it a game worthy of promotion because it is a great game, or is it notable only because it con nects to Burroughs?

There is a huge science fiction fandom out there, and they do gravitate to things connected with favoured authors and books. It is the fan support that leads to cosplaying characters, having TV shows made, and yes having board games created.

Most of the games are afterthoughts, the theme of some book sort of pasted onto a game to help boost sales, but some like jetan are part of the books them selves.

While Burroughs did give quite a lot of deatil about jetan in the book, other book-related games have evolved differently.

Pat Rothfuss wrote of Tak in ‘The Wise Man’s Fear’, but it was not a particularly detailed account.

Later Rothfuss worked with noted board game designer James Ernest and created the full rules of Tak, which was released in 2017 and is an absolute gem.

By the way there is a US Tak Association (ustak. org) and one hopes it lasts in support of this one, because the best games need dedicated play over the long term.

The question is how to bring players together effectively to grow a game? While games like jetan and Tak have a first step based on connecting to the world of words, can players build on that foundation effectively?

With jetan it never happened.

The story of Tak is yet to be completed.

Recently my eldest daughter and my seven-yearold granddaughter joined me for a weekend away. We adults left our busy lives behind for this short snatch of time, with the goal of taking some deep breaths, to rest and relax.

Did I mention we took a seven-year-old with us?

Fire? Take the Stairs! PATTIE JANZEN Laugh at Life... Revisited

Her first question occurred on the way up to our hotel room when she asked what the sign posted by the elevator read. I gladly replied, “It says we are to use the stairs in the event of a fire”. Having just begged us to take the stairs, instead of the lift, she cutely piped up, “See? It’s better if we take the stairs, Grandma.”

“Yes,” I replied, “but most especially if there’s a fire.” I did agree then to walk down the four flights at some point during our stay but her mother and I both agreed that going up four floors, with luggage, would require an elevator. However, that didn’t stop my granddaughter from trying to change our minds every time throughout the entirety of the weekend.

After our first swim, during which a bloody nose ensued due to this child’s inability to sit still for even ten seconds, we returned to our room to ready our selves for shopping.

I used to love taking my girls shopping and I could hardly wait to admire my granddaughter in some new, pretty clothing. It wasn’t long, however, before I real ized that this little sweetheart didn’t care about how she looked but was solely concerned for her own com

fort. So, basic leggings and T-shirts (similar to what was already stuffed into her suitcase) were the items purchased. I have to give her credit — she has come to realize what took me decades to learn — comfort is where it’s at! I suppose I should be thankful because that shopping trip was the shortest and least expen sive I’ve ever experienced.

Our first dinner wasn’t completely uneventful either. It’s always a bad sign when a child doesn’t “feel” like eating. Especially one who had grazed all day. Just after our food arrived, the moaning began. It was fortunate we were tucked in a booth because a child sprawled over chairs wouldn’t have been as easy to hide. Because I’ve experienced the antsy-pantsies with my own children, when they were small, I felt we couldn’t take the chance of the probable vomit hold

ing off long enough for my daughter and I to eat, so when they went to the washroom I had the food boxed to go. As we exited the restaurant, my granddaughter fairly bounced to the vehicle as I threw a questioning look at my daughter. “I guess we could’ve stayed,” she said. “That was the most gas I’ve ever heard come out of a child.”

I have to admit, although we ate cold food with the use of no utensils in our hotel room that night, it was a relief that no one got sick. Of course, the smallest of our trio tried to explain away how she’d “sweated a lot” at two in the morning when asked why her side of the bed was wet, but at least it wasn’t vomit.

Fast forward to our last morning away. It was just before 6 a.m. when I awoke to an odour not unlike something burning. The other two still slept as I poked my head into the quiet hallway. It was stronger out there but a person thinks twice about waking up children so I quietly shut the door, laid back down and waited for the fire alarm to sound. When nothing was quickly forthcoming, I fell back to sleep. (Sure! I have an anxiety problem!) Two hours later, as we rubbed the sleep from our eyes, I asked my daughter if she’d smelled anything strange, earlier. “Like what?” she asked. “Like something burning,” I returned. My granddaughter had been seemingly engrossed in col ouring a picture but her tiny voice immediately sang out, “If there’s a fire, remember we’re taking the stairs!”

Province to co-pay cochlear implants replacement

REGINA — The Saskatchewan govern ment has announced it will implement a co-pay model to help residents replace their cochlear implants.

The new model will take effect Dec. 1 of this year and is expected to ease the financial burden for those need ing to replace the exter nal processors used in the cochlear implant to restore their ability to hear.

Currently the prov ince covers costs for the initial device, the surgery and related audiology services. But replacing the external processor was not covered up to

now.

Those need to be replaced every five to seven years, with costs running upwards of $8,000 to $12,000. Under this program, residents who need a replacement will pay $840 per proces sor and the Ministry of Health would pick up the tab for the rest.

The Ministry of Health is providing $446,000 to cover the costs for this fiscal year, with an annual cost estimated at $300,000. It is estimated that 70 processors will need replacement in the first year and then 50 annually in future years.

The program coming into Saskatchewan is modelled after a simi lar co-pay model cur rently in place in British

Columbia and other provinces.

The announcement was made at the legisla ture by Health Minister Paul Merriman, who was joined by Saskatchewan Deaf and Hard of Hearing Society Executive Director Nairn Gillies as well as Rod Rossmo, a cochlear implant user who has advocated for the province to address the issue.

Rossmo was at legis lature during the spring session where he had publicly called on the government to fund the cost of replacements for those residents with cochlear implants.

This was after Rossmo received a letter from the manufacturer of the

Send secret messages with invisible ink

Do you like playing spies with your friends or siblings? Want to be able to write secret messages? Here are a few ideas for making invisible ink to create top-secret notes.

HEAT-ACTIVATED

Mix together milk and white vinegar or lemon juice in a small bowl. Get a sheet of white paper and a writing utensil like a cotton swab or a small paintbrush. Soak the tip of the writing utensil in the liquid, then write your secret message.

The invisible ink must dry completely before you try to decode it. The person who receives the message must place the paper over a heat-producing light bulb or another heat source.

If using a candle, do so only with permission and adult supervision. The heat will reveal the hidden text.

LIQUID-ACTIVATED

Combine equal parts of water and baking soda in a small bowl. Dip your writing

utensil in the mixture and create your message. Once the invisible ink has dried completely, explain to the person receiving it that they need a paintbrush and a glass of grape juice. The hidden text will appear when they cover the paper in a thin layer of juice.

You can also write your message with a white pencil or wax crayon and replace the grape juice with water-based paint to achieve the same effect.

implants, stating the cost of replacing his proces sor would be $23,000.

“Rod’s first thought wasn’t about himself,” said Gillies. “It was about what about all the others in the province who couldn’t possibly afford $23,000. And I tip my hat to you, sir. That’s the right way to think.”

Merriman said he met both Rossmo and Gillies “multiple times” and thanked them for shar ing their concerns and experiences.

“A cochlear implant can be life-changing for Saskatchewan residents who are deaf or hard of hearing,” Merriman said. “It can help communica tion with family, friends and within our commun ity. Expanding this pro gram to cover replace ment implants helps to ensure they have that opportunity going for ward.”

Gillies thanked Merriman, calling the announcement “a big part of the government’s

plan for an inclusive province.”

“This is indeed an exciting moment,” said Rossmo. “I want to thank Minister Merriman for his enlightened and sig nificant contribution to

a very significant and critical problem that we had in this process in the cochlear community … Many cochlear recipients and their families are going to be celebratory today.”

Winners of $1 million lottery ticket unveiled

REGINA — If you had a million dollars, what would you do?

That’s the question that Langenburg resi dent Ashley Sieben and a group of 51 other lottery players are saying today, after winning a $1 million Maxmillions prize in the Aug. 5 LOTTO MAX draw.

The group, known as “Ashley’s Crew of 52,” were formally announced to the public as winners by Sask Lotteries at a Regina news conference Friday.

A number of those win ners were on hand for the news conference, where Sieben was presented by Sask Lotteries with a LOTTO MAX cheque for $1 million. The winnings will be split up evenly with each group member receiving $19,230,76.

Most of the winners are Saskatchewan resi dents although there is one from Alberta and 10 from Manitoba. For the last four years, the group has regularly chipped in to purchase tickets when ever the LOTTO MAX jackpot reached $50 mil lion.

“Every time it hits $50 million, we all chip in $10 and head out down to the gas station and pick up our tickets,” said Sieben.

They didn’t win $50 million, but they did win a $1 million prize.

The 52 individuals make history as the largest group to claim a single lottery prize in western Canada, according to Sask Lotteries.

Sieben, who works at the potash mine in Esterhazy, purchased the winning ticket at Petro Canada on 505 - Kaiser

William Ave. East in Langenburg on the day of the draw. Their ticket

had the winning num bers 6, 7, 10, 11, 27, 34 and 36.

Sieben said he learn

he encouraged Sieben to check their tickets.

“Well, I had a stack of tickets,” Sieben said.

“Another group member, Kevin, was there, too, and we were going through the tickets, and we found the ticket.”

“Yeah. I made phone

calls that day, and it’s crazy, the people I talked to. It was a once in a life time experience.”

As for how they will spend their winnings, Sieben said they want to finish their garage and his wife plans to pay off her student loans.

Building construction investment up

jump of 4.6 per cent com pared to July 2022.

“Today’s strong Statistics Canada num bers are just another sign that our economy con tinues to grow,” Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “Our government is committed to growth that works for everyone, and these numbers are fur ther proof that we remain one of the best places in Canada for businesses and workers.”

In the first eight months of 2022, invest ment in non-residential construction was up by 31.2 per cent, compared to the same period in 2021, placing Saskatchewan third among the prov

inces in terms of percent age change. Saskatchewan has seen strong growth in recent months in sev eral key economic sec tors. In August 2022, the value of wholesale trade jumped by 73.7 per cent compared to August 2021 while manufacturing sales rose 28.9 per cent during the same period.

Merchandise exports also increased by 54.7 per cent in August 2022 compared to August 2021, ranking first among the provinces, and in September 2022, the province’s unemploy ment rate fell to 4.1 per cent, the lowest among provinces, and well below the national average of 5.2 per cent (seasonally adjusted).

Babysitter tips when booking a babysitter

Babysitting services today have changed from the days of ringing the resident babysitter and asking if she was free for the evening. Rising rates and technology have changed the face of baby sitting.

Cost is one, but not the only, consideration when choosing babysitters. The following are some ways parents can manage the process of booking baby sitters.

• Recognize the chang ing pool of applicants. UrbanSitter’s cofounder Lynn Perkins says that parents can hire nurses, teachers, psychologists, therapists, and other specialists to watch their children. Babysitting now attracts an array of care providers and is no longer just for teenag ers looking to earn some spending money.

• Properly vet appli

cants. Friends, family members and neighbors can be an excellent source of information and even recommend local sitters. But thanks to the internet and online caregiving services, par ents can cast a wider net when looking for quali fied sitters.

• Discuss rates in advance. The going rate for sitters has increased. Babysitters and the people who need them should have a frank con versation about rates to avoid confusion. Ask sit ters to text their rate so everything is in writing. For those unsure of what

to offer, check sites like Care.com or contact a local youth-employment office.

• Spell out your wish es. Make it clear to sit ters what you expect of them. Does the child have a special blanket or feeding ritual? Are there any minor medi cal issues that need to be addressed? Are certain snacks off limits? Do not create room for misinter pretation, especially if a child has any food aller gies or a specialized diet.

• Develop a solid rela tionship. UrbanSitter says 58 percent of those surveyed hire a sitter at

least once a month or more frequently. A good rapport with the sitter ensures he or she will take the job when called on.

• Consider a nanny cam. If you agonize when leaving home, check in via a smart house cam era, which helps you keep an eye on things while you’re away from home.

Babysitters are a necessity for busy fami lies. While many things about babysitting have changed over the years, the need for reliable, responsible sitters remains.

Red flags for scams

(NC) It seems that there’s always a new scam we need to be wor ried about. By now, we’ve been exposed to so many it’s easy to think we know the warning signs. But fraudsters are always finding new ways to out smart victims. Here are

some flags to watch out for:

Spelling and gram mar mistakes. Be wary of emails, messages or websites that contain misspelled common words, grammar errors that make it difficult to read or expressions that are used incorrectly. Email and web addresses should also be examined closely to see if there are subtle mistakes or differ ences.

Money transfers. Many scams involve a request to wire money electronic ally using a money-trans fer service. Remember that sending a transfer through these services is like sending cash — once the amount is picked up, it’s almost impossible to get your money back. The same goes for payments requesting to be made with virtual currencies or cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, or with gift or gaming cards, like an iTunes gift cards.

Deal of a lifetime. Everybody loves a great sale. But shocking offers, unbelievable discounts and unreal rates may signal that the offer isn’t quite what it seems. Ridiculously low prices usually indicate cheap products or counterfeit goods.

Unknown callers. You might get a call from someone claiming that you have a virus on your computer, or that you owe taxes or there has been fraudulent activity in your bank accounts. Know that legitimate organizations will almost never call you directly. Don’t take any chances. Hang up and call the organization yourself using the number from a trustworthy source, such as the phone book, their website, or even invoices and account statements.

Indigenous Student Success Lead Erin Nicolas and Yorkton Regional High School Principal Mike Haczkewicz, graciously accept a $5,000 cheque in sponsorship of the YRHS ISSC Food Program from the Yorkton Tribal Council.

Nicolas was extremely happy to have the YTC help with the purchase of food supplies for her program at the YRHS.

“This money comes at a time when food costs are extremely high and many families are strug gling to put food in their fridges and on their supper tables,” stated Nicolas, adding, “every little bit helps us—we are currently supplying over 100 students a .day

with healthy snacks and meals—we can’t learn with empty stomachs, the YTC sponsorship is huge.”

The ISSC at the high school is in place to help Indigenous students have a place in the school to call their own. The space gives the students an identity in the school.

“The ISSC Program, under the watchful eyes of Erin Nicolas and ICW (Indigenous Community Worker) Journey Delorme, continues to provide our Indigenous students with oppor tunities to grab a snack when needed, focus of some schoolwork, learn about Indigenous culture, and just basic ally have a space in the school to be themselves,” said Haczkewicz.
