New sewage lift station for Springside

By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The town of Springside needs a new sewer lift station, and they have signed the contract to get construction underway. Kelsey Pipeline received the contract through Bullee Consulting for the project, which will start construction in mid-August.

The contract was signed at a special meeting of town council on July 22, where council members went in-depth with the engineers and construction contractor to get the details before signing the deal. It will see the town’s sewage lift station replaced, as well as the sewage force main to the lagoon.

Alderman Steve Spearman said they old lift station had reached the end of its life, and was not reliable enough for the town.

“Ours was built long ago and starting to fail. It just needs to be upgraded.”

The project will be a total of $2,150,000, paid for in a three-way partnership between the town and the federal and provincial governments. Spearman said that without the grants they couldn’t afford the project.

While they hope to have a minimal disruption for the people of town, there will likely be closed streets and other interruptions during the construction

The project has been in the works for at least four years, when heavy rains revealed limits to the capacity in the lift station the town currently uses explained Kevin Traves, consulting engineer from Bullee Consulting. While the town did upgrade the pumps at

the time, and used temporary pumps to help with capacity, they realized the current system was undersized for the needs of the town.

Traves said that the situation in Springside is a common one for towns in the province.

“It’s not uncommon for

much of a town’s infrastructure to date back to the original installation dates. We see a lot of 1940’s, ‘50’s and ‘60’s infrastructure with interim repairs along the way. A lot of that infrastructure is reaching the end of its service life, so we’re seeing a lot more replacement required to keep the towns

flowing.”

The town is glad to see the project going ahead.

“It’s a good thing for the town, it’s going to ensure that the community will be around for another 50-60 years,” said Spearman.

The new lift station is expected to be in use by Feb. 2020.

Food bank garden grows

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer In June the Salvation Army received a boost to its planned gardening efforts for its food bank.

At the time Young’s Plant World donated several trays of vegetable plants, as well as vegetable seeds to the cause as part of the Salvation Army’s Growing Kindness campaign.

The plants and seeds were then planted in a garden plot the Salvation Army is tending this summer provided by Dorothy McCuaig.

“I can’t do the work anymore,” said McCuaig, who decided rather than turn the garden plot in her yard to grass, she provided it to be used for a good cause such as grow-

“The plot was here, so why not have somebody use it, and they can use the food down there, (the

food bank),” she said.

The food that is being grown in the garden is being distributed through the food bank so that people who need

support can have “fresh produce, not just canned goods,” explained Lieutenant Sam Tim with the Salvation Army.

John Kaminsky has

been helping tend the garden, which is now beginning to yield its first produce for the food bank. He said he just wanted to get involved to

Tasty hotdogs Yorkton kids get the skinny on fireflies.

Learning about fireflies

By Cory Carlick Staff Writer Kids at the Parkland library were in for a treat, as the Yellowhead Flyway Birding Trail Association had a special session about fireflies.

“I’ve gone to different daycares and libraries,” said Talia Fawcett, who the YFBTA has hired for the summer as part of their youth outreach

educational programs.

“Today I’m at the Yorkton Public Library, and here I’ll be doing a little hour long presentation on fireflies.

“Basically, the goal of my job is to just spread awareness of outdoor education and nature because a lot of times, kids these days, don’t always know as much as they would’ve in the past [due to not being outside

as much].’ We’re kind of encouraging nature stewardship.

“We’re learning the basics of fireflies. The anatomy of fireflies, what they eat, what they do.

It’s kind of a mystery, because scientists....they know how they glow, they don’t know why they do.

“So we’ll play some games, do a little craft -- ‘build a firefly’, run around with glowsticks for a bit, those kind of things. It’s very cute.”

For the true hotdog connoisseur the Cornerstone Credit Union courtyard in Yorkton was the place to be for lunch Friday. As a fundraiser the Boys and Girls Club of Yorkton held a gourmet hotdog sale, giving

“This is a good way to get the community involved,” he said.

Carrie Olson, one of the driving forces behind the project added that thanks to a donation through McKenzie Seeds, the Salvation Army is able to provide a packet of seeds to the first 100 people to donate garden produce, as a way of supporting the ongoing idea of gardening for the food

There are also ideas percolating to provide follow-up education for people in regards to how to store and prepare the fresh vegetables.

And, expanding on the idea of locally produced food for the food bank, McCuaig said she has a small grain mill, so if anyone wanted to provide wheat, peas, or similar farm crops in small quantities she could make flour for the food bank.

Donations of grain to grind, or garden produce can be dropped off at the Salvation Army Food Bank on Betts Ave. in the city.

Monsters and Mayhem

By Cory Carlick Staff Writer Dallas Rogers knew that he was going to be a monster truck driver.

The driver of DOG, the world’s biggest bulldog, sat down with Yorkton This Week to talk about his career as a monster truck driver.

“The first time I ever drove a monster truck was January 1, 2012,” Rogers recalled.

“So it was a pretty cool new year’s back then, and I’ve been driving ever since! Always wanted to since I was 2 years old, though. You know, ‘When I grow up, I’m going to be a monster truck driver.’

Living the dream.

“The first truck I ever drove was actually a ride truck. It was called Bone Crusher.

“Basically, ever since I was young, I was always going to shows, asking the right people questions. [I was] just trying to learn as much as I can really, showing that you’re willing to put in the effort; that you’re willing to learn, and went off from there.

“I volunteered my time helping teams out, and eventually started

going on the road doing shows, and eventually... they needed a driver.

“Today, I’ll be driving the DOG monster truck.

It’s the world’s largest bulldog, so it’s pretty dang cool.

“Safety, when it comes to monster trucks is absolutely incredible.

“For driver safety, the drivers, of course, have a full fire retardant firesuit. They have a helmet with a neck restraint, and then we’re ratcheted into a five poiint harness in a seat that’s custom moulded to our body. Literally, just our limbs can move, but our body can’t. That helps keep the drivers safe, but also for spectator’s safety and the track crew and everything, there’s something called an RII, which stands for Remote Ignition Interruptor. If for any reason a monster truck is out of control and endangering anybody or anything that shouldn’t be crushed or anything like that, the truck can be shut off by remote.

There are several officials around the track -- it looks like a walkie-talkie -- just the click of a button and it shuts the trucks off.”

No parking?

Yeah, well, these trucks can pretty much make their own parking spots.

Besides, what are you going to do about it?

Perspective Gov’t taking Crown dividends makes no sense

Politics Saskatchewan’s Crown corporations made $541 million in 2018-19, according to the Crown Investment Corp. (CIC) annual report.

Let us consider that from a number of perspectives.

The first perspective is that owning healthy Crowns is not always something Saskatchewan government always wanted.

One of those healthy Crowns is SaskEnergy, which celebrated is 30th year in existence by declaring earlier this month $166 million in net income — enough to provide government with a $60-million dividend and small rebates for those wanting to install expensive energyefficient furnaces. (More on those dividends in a moment.)

But think back 30 years ago to when SaskEnergy was nothing but a subsidiary of SaskPower.

In the spring of 1989, Saskatchewan was in a pitched battle between those who were for and those who were against privatization — a battle that makes the worst of today’s political rhetoric seem passionless.

“I expect as much noise and bell-ringing and hollering as you’ve ever seen,” then-Progressive Conservative premier Grant Devine said 30 years ago as he unveiled his agenda to sell off SaskEnergy. “This is (the NDP’s) Alamo. This is their Waterloo. This is the end of the line for them. This is it.”

Of course, the rhetoric from the then-NDP opposition was no less severe.

“April 21, 1989 (the day the SaskEnergy privatization bill was introduced) will be remembered as a day of bitter betrayal,” then-NDP leader Roy Romanow said.

Well, we all know how things turned out.

And today it would be hard for even the most hardline conservative to argue that they haven’t turned out for the better. Having Crown corporations supplying our most basic needs like heat, electricity and telephone/internet services has allowed Saskatchewan to develop a successful, modern economy.

But this takes us back to the success of today’s Crowns … or more specifically, how the Sask.

Party is utilizing that success.

Upon announcing the final CIC 2019-19 results, it was learned that $256 million of that $541-million accumulated profit of CIC Crowns would be going to the government as “dividends” to help offset their existing deficits.

That, by the way, would include. $6 million came from the last $30 million of sold assets for the Saskatchewan Transportation Company.

Of course, there are those who will now argue the only point of having public ownership of healthy Crown utilities is for them to help with government finances.

However, that was a wrong-headed argument when NDP governments used to make it and likely even worse coming from the Sask. Party now.

For starters, it has been the Sask. Party government’s argument for months now that a carbon tax on gasoline to supposedly deal with future environmental problems is simply wrong.

Premier Scott Moe and company may be right that the carbon tax — at least as proposed by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government — is ineffective.

But is imposing a federal carbon tax on Saskatchewan people any more unfair than its provincial government hitting them with severe yearly electrical utility rate hikes when you are taking that money and moving it to general revenue fund coffers?

Why are we not instead using those Crown profits to provide rebates to consumers who are hurting as much from utility costs as pump prices?

Or better yet, why let the utilities like SaskEnergy and SaskPower keep their surpluses so they can better deal with their own pressing infrastructure needs?

Doesn’t that make infinitely more sense than the Crowns borrowing money for capital infrastructure at high interest rates?

And wasn’t moving to summary financial statements supposed to stop the nonsense of playing shell games with your hard-earned dollars?

It’s great to still have profitable Crowns, but how we are now using those profits leaves much to be desired.

Mirasty has rare opportunity in new role S

askatchewan has a new lieutenant-governor.

That is noteworthy of course based on the untimely passing of Lt.Gov. Tomas Molloy, but this appointment by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is about more than filling the shoes left

by Molloy.

We all recognize the position of Lt.Gov. these days is more ceremonial than one of actual power, which frankly is a good thing in the sense that we should forge our own path in terms of issues that fall under the purview of the Legislature without undue influence from the appointed position of the federal government.

But, that does not mean the Lt.-Gov. can’t play an important role in the province in terms of fostering a positive image, and being part of the conversation regarding issues, especially those that transcend the powers of the provincial government.

One such issue in Saskatchewan and increasingly being seen across our country, and beyond is racism.

So we welcome Russell Mirasty as Saskatchewan’s 23rd lieutenant-governor.

For those not aware Mirasty is of First Nations ancestry. That is important to remember as he forges forward in his new role. As Lt.-Gov. Mirasty is in a unique position to raise the profile of the the issue of racism in Saskatchewan, and by so doing, fostering open dialogue to work toward

building bridges to bring First Nations and non-First Nations together for a better future for Saskatchewan.

Mirasty can be an important voice in the debate that needs to take place, himself becoming a bridge of sorts.

He can clearly be a symbol for First Nations people, and at the same time because of his position, his voice will be heard on the other side of the debate as well.

Mirasty’s role can go beyond being a sort of moderator to foster debate, to also be a voice behind the closed doors of both the Premier’s office and the door of the Prime Minister, to lobby for action on the positive suggestions that come out of renewed debate on the issues of racism.

It has been some time since someone has stepped into the role with such a clearly defined opportunity to have a positive effect as is the case with Mirasty.

The question of course is whether he takes up the challenge?

The debate won’t always be easy.

Racism is a nasty thing with some of the hatreds involved long entrenched.

It will be ugly at times, and digging out the rot of racist mentality will require innovative ideas and plain old hard work to see progress.

We can hope Mirasty sees the role as one he is ideally suited to play a key role in because our future will be a better one with less racism in it.

City reminds of recycling effort The City of Yorkton is reminding citizens there are four ‘Residential Recycling Drop-off Bins’ located around the city for their use.

These bins are large green 30-yard multi section bins that are located at the Parkland Mall parking lot (2), Prairie Harvest Christian Life Center parking lot and Gallagher Center parking lot.

In addition there are recycling cages at RecyclAbility Enterprises, 180 Ball Road, which accept

recyclable materials plus household glass, explained Jacob Perpeluk, Landfill Coordinator.

People can refer the ‘Recycling Coach app’ for a complete listing of all recyclable products, he added.

The bins are designed with three compartments to separate materials for easier sorting at RecyclAbility Enterprises in Yorkton.

The three compartments are labelled with large white letters to indicate what materials should be

deposited into openings; these are cardboard, newspaper, and plastics and tins.

The purpose of the green bins is to compliment the residential curbside recycling program, and it is also useful for oversized items, such as large cardboard boxes, said Perpeluk.

The Residential Recycling Drop-off Bins have been in use around the City of Yorkton since 2010 and have been a popular method of recycling for many. With new ways to track data on recycling, it has been dis-

covered that these bins are not only being used for recycling, but a lot of garbage content is making its way into the recycling bins.

Since the start of 2019, a large portion of the bin’s contents have been residential garbage and yard waste material, over 37.65 metric tonnes of garbage has been thrown into the recycling bins, that equates to over 14 per cent of the total annual weight or over six full OSS garbage trucks.

This creates problems for the Recyclability Enterprises to sort out

the garbage from the recyclable materials.

It takes more time and effort, which is more costly to operate and it creates more hazards and safety concerns for the workers. In addition, depending on the nature of the garbage, the entire bin can be containment resulting in the entire load going to the landfill.

In 2018 City of Yorkton residents recycled 600 tonnes of materials between using the Residential Recycling Drop-off Bins and the Residential Curbside Recycling Program.

Residents of Yorkton are asked to refrain from using the Residential Recycling Drop-off Bins for disposing, but encourage residents to continue recycling as much as possible.

Did you know yard wastes such as grass clippings and leaves can be taken to the landfill for free disposal added Perpeluk.

Thank-you for recycling, it diverts material from the landfill and creates employment, he concluded.

Local organizations get arts grants

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer Two Yorkton organizations received grants from the Saskatchewan Arts Board at the recent deadlines: Godfrey Dean Art Gallery Inc. received a $49,000 Professional Arts Organizations Program grant to support its operations.

Yorkton Film Festival received a $53,000 SaskFestivals grant to support its operations.

Don Stein, executive director of the Godfrey Dean Gallery said the funding is a continuation

for the gallery.

“It’s the same funding we’ve been getting the last 10-12 years,” he said, adding they did have to reapply as the program is evolving to a four-year cycle.

The stability of a fouryear cycle is a big step, said Stein as it allows for planning with greater knowledge of the money you have to work with.

In the case of the money for the Godfrey Dean Gallery it is for dayto-day operations.

“This stuff allows you to just operate, it’s not tied to a projector an artist ... It allows us to oper-

ate as a professional art operation,” said Stein.

Randy Goulden, executive director of the Yorkton Film Festival said the funding is something they have received in past years, but they had to re-apply in April for a new cycle of funding.

“We’re really pleased that we have sustainable funding with a four-year program,” she said, adding the SaskFestivals grant “is one of our (YFF’s) major funders.

“It’s really good news for the Board of the Yorkton Film Festivals.”

The Professional Arts

Organizations Program provides support to professional arts organizations’ programs and services, governance, management, administration and operational functions. The program is supported by funding from SaskCulture Inc. through the Saskatchewan Lotteries Trust Fund for Sport, Culture and Recreation.

The SaskFestivals program provides financial support for festival organizations’ artistic programs, services, governance, management, administrative and operational functions.

The program is sup-

ported by funding from SaskCulture Inc. through the Saskatchewan Lotteries Trust Fund for Sport, Culture and Recreation.

At the most recent grant deadlines, the Saskatchewan Arts Board awarded funding to more than 180 individuals and organizations, totaling almost $5.3 million. Arts Board funding supports a variety of initiatives, including organizations that provide ongoing programs in the arts, the creative work of professional artists, community art projects and the engagement of professional artists to

work in schools with students and teachers.

Established in 1948, the Saskatchewan Arts Board is the oldest public arts funder in North America and second oldest in the world after the Arts Council of Great Britain.

We provide grants, programs and services to individuals and groups whose activities have an impact on the arts in Saskatchewan and ensure that opportunities exist for Saskatchewan residents to experience all art forms. For more information on our programs and services, visit www.saskartsboard.ca.

BYLAW FAST FACT

2016 Construction Darlington Street Overpass Rehabilitation Project

Please Keep Dogs on Leash When Walking Them….

And Secure Your Dogs at Home!

Did you know?

The Animal Control Bylaw No. 5/2018 requires dog owners to have their dog on a leash when the dog is off the owner’s premises, at any location within City limits. This enables the owner to be in immediate, continuous and effective control of the dog.

Dog owners must also ensure that their dogs are kept fenced in or tied up in their yards to protect people who walk by their homes.

Why? In the interest of public safety, dog owners have a responsibility to have their dogs on a leash when walking them or to have their dogs fenced in or tied up when at home. Residents should be free and comfortable to enjoy the outdoor community, without fear of being approached by a dog that is at large or from an attack by a dog that is at large.

There have been a number or incidents reported in 2019 where people have been confronted or frightened by dogs when the individuals/families are merely out for a leisurely walk, or walking to school.

Please be respectful and responsible dog owners by keeping dogs on leashes when in public areas and keep dogs fenced in or tied up when they are at home.

Thank you for cooperation.

Elmy takes a path less travelled It is always interesting to meet up with Kevin Elmy of Friendly Acres Seed Farm at Saltcoats.

In the world of agriculture today most producers march down a rather straight road with a single goal in mind, to maximize production.

While that seems to be the obvious goal for farming, Elmy is taking what poet Robert Frost once termed ‘the road less traveled’.

Elmy looks less at bulk production numbers, and instead says he wants to increase the net return of each acre on his farm.

On the surface it might sound like the

same goal, but it doesn’t always work out that way.

Going after maximum production comes with a cost, one that is typically high, and is trending higher.

Such production means pouring the fertilizer to crops, and that comes with a cost.

Elmy wants to use crop rotations to produce nutrient needs for future crops, nitrogen fixed by legumes an example, or to allow natural soil processes to unlock existing nutrients, such as phosphate, rather than simply adding more. He says the effort is working and today he applies no

Agriculture THIS WEEK

Calvin Daniels additional fertilizers.

Gross production also typically means continuous cropping, and that can have long term impact on soil health.

Elmy is fine with a third of his land growing crops for green manure, or simply soil health, so his crop mix includes grass and chicory and

field radish. It’s a mind shift for farmers today to grow a crop not meant to be harvested in the fall to be sold, but Elmy said long term he feels his soils will be the better for it.

Soils naturally have living organisms as part of its natural systems too. Spraying herbicides

and pesticides and using fungicides can kill off good ‘bugs’ in the soil system, so Elmy looks to control weeds through rotation, and avoid applying chemicals.

In the process, Elmy has reduced his cost of production. There is no line on the ledger for fertilizers and a generally smaller one for chemicals. He points out that by reducing costs significantly, he has reduced the risk he faces each year too.

A near crop failure because of severe weather still hurts but he doesn’t have a big fertilizer or chemical bill to pay at least.

It all means he can

produce less than a high input neighbour and have a stronger net return with less risk.

Elmy is not unique in his approach, there are others treading the same less taken path, but his apparent success does provide food for thought for the broader industry.

The question becomes simple, can Mother Nature and crops managed well improve the bottom line over maximizing purchased inputs?

Elmy would say yes, and that has to have producers thinking.

Happy critters lead to healthy soils

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer To grow a good crop, you need healthy soil.

To have healthy soil you have to understand the diverse ecosystem which exists below the soil surface.

That was the message producers received from Dr. Yamily Zavala of CARA Soil Health Lab in Alberta as she made a presentation at the Friendly Acres Seed Farm Field Day south of Saltcoats last week.

“It’s a new world,” she said. “There’s always something that’s happening.”

Zavala said she is particularly interested in nematodes, and their importance in the soil ecosystem.

For those unfamiliar with nematodes they “are non-segmented worms typically 1/500 of an inch (50 µm) in diameter and 1/20 of an inch (1 mm) in length. Those few species responsible for plant diseases have received a lot of attention, but far less is known about the majority of the nematode community that plays beneficial roles in soil,” explains the Natural Resources Conservation Service Soils page at www.nrcs.usda.gov “An incredible variety of nematodes function at several trophic levels of the soil food web.

Some feed on the plants and algae (first trophic level); others are grazers that feed on bacteria and fungi (second trophic level); and some feed on other nematodes (higher trophic levels).”

The site notes freeliving nematodes can be divided into four broad groups based on their

Dr. Yamily Zavala of CARA Soil Health Lab in Alberta, above, was the main presenter at the Friendly Acres Seed Farm Field Day near Saltcoats last week. diet.

Bacterial-feeders consume bacteria.

Fungal-feeders feed by puncturing the cell wall of fungi and sucking out the internal contents.

Predatory nematodes eat all types of nematodes and protozoa. They eat smaller organisms’ whole, or attach themselves to the cuticle of larger nematodes, scraping away until the prey’s internal body parts can be extracted.

Omnivores eat a variety of organisms or may have a different diet at each life stage. Rootfeeders are plant parasites, and thus are not free-living in the soil.

While not all nematodes are beneficial, Zavala said more study is required to fully understand what they mean in terms of maintaining a

healthy soil ecosystem.

“Each creature there has a function in the soil,” she said.

Kevin Elmy, host of the field day, said often modern farming techniques can negatively impact the actions which are natural to the soil.

For example certain processes can be slowed because of the addition of fertilizers, and suddenly the normal system is impacted at the microbiological level.

Zavala said her interest in nematodes is part of a larger interest in understanding soil health.

The CARA Soil Health Lab website details that, “soil health is the capacity of soil to function as a living system, with ecosystem and land use boundaries, to sustain plant and animal pro-

ductivity, maintain or enhance water and air quality, and promote plant and animal health.

Healthy soils maintain a diverse community of soil organisms that help to control plant disease, insect and weed pests, form beneficial symbiotic associations with plant roots; recycle essential plant nutrients; improve soil structure with positive repercussions for soil water and nutrient holding capacity, and ultimately improve crop production. A healthy soil does not pollute its environment and does contribute to mitigating climate change by maintaining or increasing its carbon content.”

Of course soil health is seen as critical in terms of food production.

“Soil health has been defined as the capacity

of soil to function as a living system,” noted the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. “Healthy soils maintain a diverse community of soil organisms that help to control plant disease, insect and weed pests, form beneficial symbiotic associations with plant roots, recycle essential plant nutrients, improve soil structure with positive effects for soil water and nutrient holding capacity, and ultimately improve crop production.”

CARA notes, healthy soils have many benefits.

One of the most important benefits is that healthy soil holds more water (by binding it to organic

matter (OM)), improves water use efficiency, and loses less water to runoff and evaporation. As OM increases, it will hold up to 20 times its weight in water.”

Five principles have been reported to be the most important components to accomplish healthy soils: 1. Minimize mechanical soil disturbance 2. Keeping the soils covered at all times (armor the soil) 3. Growing a living root year around 4. Increase plant diversity above ground to increase diversity below 5. Incorporate livestock grazing

Tracking a perpetual rumor machine Way back in the early ‘90s, a popular car magazine made a joke about how to easily sell magazines. They invented one called “Is this the new Corvette?” magazine, which would just recycle the same rumors about Corvettes every month, with the idea that people would eat it up.

There was a reason it was foolproof. Corvettes, the finest sports cars you could buy from Chevrolet, had this weird habit of almost changing dramatically. For decades, they would be surrounded by rumors of radical new drivetrain layouts, engines, and other massive changes that never

actually came to pass.

For all the rumors, the Corvette remained a car with a giant V8 in the front, no matter how dramatic the rumors might have been.

Until, suddenly, it’s not.

The engine remains a giant V8, and it even has a little window where you can look at it. But now that engine is mounted behind the driver.

That’s a pretty dramatic change for the new model, and one that has been teased and hinted at since at least the 1970s.

We are now truly in the future, for Corvettes have a mid-engine layout.

Thinking I do with words...

I bring it up only because it’s one of those things you assume will never happen. There are lots of things like that.

New work by artists who don’t often release new material. Changes to who is voted into public office that you assume wouldn’t happen for various rea-

sons. Stuff that is constantly on the verge of happening that never does, and at a certain point you just assume it never will. The rumors swirl for decades and they just never actually happen, and you assume it’s a bit of background noise that is not going to

actually come to pass.

Locally, I can think of a couple rumors that have been going around for at least a decade, many of them involving stores, restaurants or movie theatres that are constantly on the verge of breaking ground around Yorkton and never actually show up.

Every village, town or city has these rumors, and while some of them eventually come true, others just sit as an unfulfilled wish from the population for years, speculation driven by what people would enjoy rather than on any concrete evidence.

A9

Others are rumors based on reality, but then the reality changes somewhere behind the scenes and the planned change never takes place. The mid-engined Corvettes of these towns are planned businesses and growth that are torpedoed by outside factors before they could ever happen, never quite announced, sometimes with the plans drawn up already before they were tossed in the cupboard.

But then again, we have a mid-engined Corvette, suddenly any of these rumors could come true. We just might have to wait over 40 years for them to actually happen.

Crops continue to develop in Sask Crops continue to develop across the province, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s weekly Crop Report.

Sixty-three per cent of the fall and spring cereals, 53 per cent of the oilseeds, and 73 per cent of the pulse crops are at their normal stages of development for this time of year.

Crop conditions vary throughout the province, but the majority are in poor-to-good condition. Wild weather this past week brought hail, severe winds and some crop damage to areas of the province.

Rainfall ranged from trace amounts to 90 mm

in the Frobisher area.

The Kyle area reported 60 mm, the Saltcoats area 22 mm, the Biggar area 28 mm, the Hudson Bay area 12 mm and the Glaslyn area 13 mm.

Provincially, topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as two per cent surplus, 84 per cent adequate, 13 per cent short and one per cent very short. Topsoil moisture on the hay land and pasture is rated as one per cent surplus, 79 per cent adequate, 19 per cent short, and one per cent very short.

Livestock producers continue haying and now have 13 per cent of the crop cut and eight per cent baled or put into

silage. Hay quality is rated as three per cent excellent, 42 per cent good, 42 per cent fair and 13 per cent poor.

Producers are indicating that hay yields are below average and that some will need to find alternative feed sources.

While pasture growth has occurred since the rainfall, some livestock producers have indicated they may still have a reduced carrying capacity.

Sources of crop damage this week include localized flooding, strong winds, hail, lack of moisture and insects such as grasshoppers and aphids.

There are reports of disease issues in pulse

Businesses encouraged to apply to program

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer The federal government has launched the SME Project Stream which will direct income generated from the federal carbon tax to a rebate program aimed at assisting small and medium-sized businesses in reducing energy use, saving money and/or reducing GHG emissions.

The program will provide a rebate of up to 25 per cent for projects between $80,000 - $1 million. This rebate program is stackable with the newly created Accelerated Investment Incentive and other rebate programs from Saskatchewan Crown Corporations to a maximum of 100 per cent.

The Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce applauded the announcement, in a release, and encouraged business to take advantage of the investment incentives for new equipment and energy retrofits to improve energy efficiency.

Yorkton Chamber of Commerce executive director Juanita Polegi said while the Yorkton Chamber Board has not had a chance to discuss the Energy Rebate program, the local organization echoes many of the comments made by the Sask Chamber.

First and foremost, “the Yorkton Chamber does not support a carbon tax,” she noted, adding “the Yorkton Chamber does not believe a carbon tax will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”

That said Polegi said the Yorkton Chamber “does encourage its member businesses to apply for the rebate program as they endeavour to become more energy

efficient,” adding “as the program operates on a first-come, firstserve basis, the Yorkton Chamber urges its member businesses not to delay in submitting their applications .”

Energy efficiency continues to be a priority for the Saskatchewan Chamber, noted the provincial organization’s release, as it provides significant cost savings and allows businesses to be more competitive.

“No business should be incurring unnecessary energy costs and this rebate program is an opportunity for businesses across the province to become more energy efficient and save money. We encourage Saskatchewan businesses to apply for rebate programs to improve competitiveness and reduce emissions,” said Steve McLellan, CEO of the Saskatchewan

Chamber of Commerce in the release.

While the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce does not support a carbon tax and does not believe it is the best way to reduce GHG emissions and minimize Saskatchewan’s carbon footprint, the Chamber is an advocate for energy efficiency and encourages businesses to take advantage of the SME Project Stream rebate program as soon as possible. More than $21 million of funding has been made available for Saskatchewan SMEs but these funds are strictly on a first-come, firstserve basis.

The Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce serves as the voice of business and represents the interests of 10,000 businesses across the province through the Chamber network.

Flower have their own language There is a very unique language, the language of flowers. Over the centuries, flowers have taken on different meanings, and the people of the time knew and understood these meanings.

This was especially true in Victorian times, when one just didn’t say certain things to another face to face, but the message could be sent with flowers. If a young man was pining away for the affections of a certain young lady, he could send her a bouquet of primrose to say “I can’t live without you.” But if the young lady sent back a bouquet of yellow carnations, it meant “I just want to be friends”.

Even today, certain flowers bring an instant message to mind: roses, especially red roses, mean true love. Myrtle is love, and still a symbol of marriage. Lily of the valley is purity and sweetness.

Today I’d like to make up a floral bouquet of wishes to three very special men who will be leaving our community: the Redemptorist fathers at St. Mary’s Ukrainian Catholic Church.

Fr. Bohdan Lukie, Fr. Ray Lukie, and Fr. Methodius Kushko have worked tirelessly in the community in so many ways, from being pastors and conducting thousands of services and blessings at the church for their parishioners, driving out to many smaller parishes, visiting at the hospitals and nursing homes, being guests on the radio and television, and being strong and vibrant members of the community. They will be leaving Yorkton in a short time, and I wish them every grace and blessing in the next chapters of their lives.

My bouquet would contain many flowers to represent my wishes for them: pink carnations to say “I’ll never forget you”; gladiolas and rosemary for “remembrance”; white hyacinth to represent “prayers” for the future. I’d add

DEBBIE HAYWARD YORKTON AND DISTRICT HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY

Gardener’s Notebook in some goldenrod to represent “good luck” and “encouragement”; sage for “wisdom”, and thyme for “courage”.

There would be violets for “loyalty”, pink roses for “love and happiness”, yellow roses for “joy”, and a mixed rose collection for “gratitude”. I’d include geraniums and irises for “friendship”, heather for “admiration” and chrysanthemums for “long life”. There would be zinnias for “thoughts of absent friends”, and forget-me-nots for “memories”.

For greenery I would include a branch of oak for “strength”, ferns for “confidence”, and sprigs of ivy for “friendship”.

And finally, cyclamen to say “goodbye”.

Dear fathers, thank you for your faith and dedication, your hard work, your friendship, and all that you have been to your parishioners and many friends in Yorkton. Though your paths now take you in different directions, may you look forward with hope and enthusiasm.

God bless and keep you always: Mnohaya lita!

Farewell to a beloved church

My childhood church closed last week.

Amalgamated, actually.

It seems a kinder word.

The few remaining members and attendees voted to take their worship, along with their pastor, across BC’s Fraser River to merge with a larger church. Uniting the thinning ranks of the good Christian soldiers in both congregations seemed the best solution.

Enthusiastic impassioned believers, my parents among them, built Como Lake Nazarene Church in 1961/1962.

People with great hopes that it would become a light in the surrounding urban community. For several generations, it was. Mom and Dad, charter members, stuck to it

like duct tape for decades, doing all they could to keep it thriving.

Everything living dies eventually. Even churches. I understand that. But the news, when I heard it, saddened me. I understand that too. The roots from one’s greening years tug hard, especially those entwined with spiritual growth.

I was four or five when the little church that raised me rose from the ground. I recall it well; a steep-roofed building with tall trusses and a ceiling of wide polished planks. Tidy rows of low wooden pews, hard as concrete after an hour of sitting, ran at right angles to its roughly plastered ivory-coloured walls. A

long concrete ramp led gradually to its main door — accessibility, generations before required.

Since hearing the news about my childhood church, I’ve reflected long on its place in my life. It played an important role in my faith walk.

God used that little church with the steep trusses to teach me, con-

vict me, save me from Hell (several dozen times at least) sanctify me and marry me. I loved most of our pastors, though some visiting preachers terrified me. So did the missionaries, with their tales of dark continents, snakes in their shoes, and paint-faced tribespeople holding spears.

Alongside Biblical

truth, I learned much under that lofty ceiling. Few things advance a young musician or speaker’s abilities than repeated opportunities to blunder badly in front of an encouraging congregation.

Sadly, because of my father’s long involvement with boards and committees, I also learned more than I wanted to know about the inner (sometimes sadly political) workings of church life — the good, the bad and the heartbreaking.

After thirty plus years of shared church ministry with the Preacher, I look back at some of the church friends and pastors I knew as a child with more understanding and through kinder

lenses.

“Hypocrites in the Church?” evangelist Billy Sunday once said, “Yes, and in the lodge and at the home. Don’t hunt through the Church for a hypocrite. Go home and look in the mirror.

Hypocrites? Yes. See that you make the number one less.”

I have a praise to raise. Thanks, God, for my little home church.

I’m eager for a glimpse of a blaze, a shining bank of lights ignited through the results of its shining; each light igniting another. Then another and another, adding to the Church that Jesus said can never, ever die.

Go softly, friend.

Thanks for the memories.

Local footballers return from Red River Cup

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer The Red River Cup in Winnipeg wrapped up Wednesday with the two teams from Saskatchewan missing the gold medal game.

Tyrell MacLean, who was one of the coaches for Team White from Saskatchewan, had suggested in an interview Monday that a team from this province would make the gold final.

“That did not happen,” he said in an interview Thursday evening. “Both teams, (from Saskatchewan), could pull off the wins that they

needed on Monday.”

And the stronger of the Manitoba teams could have done the visiting teams a favour with a win, but that didn’t happen either, said MacLean.

“It was incredibly disappointing,” he said, adding both Saskatchewan teams were so close to winning Monday.

“Team White was tied 6-6 and they, (the opposition), scored with less than a minute left,” said MacLean.

Team Green was deadlocked 22-22 “and they gave up a score with under a minute left,” he said.

It was a case where

both teams were in the contests, “but couldn’t finish it off,” he said.

The bronze medal game was then an all Saskatchewan affair with nine players among the 40 players selected to make-up two teams for the Red River Cup from Yorkton.

The nine players were; offensive line Alyssa Sander, Shay-Lynn Pelletier, and Katelynne Hoffman, Austen Dubreuil, quarterback, Brooke Hannotte, running back, Camryn Dubreuil and Katelyn Dixon-Appelton on the defensive line Caelan MacLean, linebacker,

and Makayla Pelletier, defensive back, and their coaches will need to adapt on the run.

Local coaches involved included Chris Sander, Daryl Zimmer, Jeff Hannotte, and Tyrell MacLean.

In the end team Green won over White 46-30.

MacLean said team White was pretty banged up by the end of the final game.

“I looked over once and we had one extra person,” he said, even though they were playing only six-a-side football.

MacLean said in five days they played three

mini games, the full playoff games and practiced, and the injuries simply mounted ranging from concussions, to a dislocated elbow to a torn ACL. In spite of some disappointment in terms of finish, MacLean said it was still a great event.

“The experience was amazing,” he said, including playing the gold and bronze games on the same field the Canadian Football League Winnipeg Blue Bombers play.

The experience was such that the Red River Cup will be back in 2020

for a second year.

“Planning started during the week,” said MacLean, adding next year “Saskatchewan is going to host, (likely Regina).”

The organizers are also looking to move to two divisions U16 and U18, from the single category they used this year, and move from six-a-side to nine-aside. MacLean said that move is something he certainly supports.

“If we want to grow the game for female football, for everybody ... we’re going to eventually have to evolve to 12-aside,” he said.

DEADLINE CHANGE Due to the upcoming Civic Holiday, the deadline for Yorkton This Week August 7 issue is Friday, August 2, 2019 at 3:00 p.m.

Is cricket the next pro sport in Canada?

I have suggested in the past that one day in the not so distant future a professional cricket league will be launched in North America.

There is a chance it might be a Canadian effort, at least if the T20 Tournament, now in its second year in this country finds the success it hopes for to allow for an evolution into an actual city-based league.

“The role that T20 international tournaments globally play in the development of the game is of the utmost importance. Along with capturing the imagination of our youth, the Global T20 Canada game is poised to catapult cricket as the world’s leading sport with a continued growth in broadcast viewership,” details www.gt20. ca “While attaining heights of the Indian

Premier League and Big Bash is the goal, we believe that youth development of players and officials is integral to the longevity and continued growth of the product.”

This year’s event is set for July 25 to Aug. 11, with six teams representing Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal and host Brampton.

I am hoping there will be a low-cost online option to watch some games. I say low-cost only because spending too much on a sport I know little about isn’t something I am likely to do.

I do generally like team sports. I can probably list 15-plus I would watch if a team I have some attachment to was playing, but that doesn’t mean I enjoy every team sport. But, I am curious about cricket, the T20 version at least,

hits, and six runs, four of those earned.

A third local pitcher; Vaughn Wilgosh, also in his second appearance closed out the game for the Cardinals giving up one earned run on two hits over two innings.

Graham Brunner was the winning pitcher for the Dawgs. He went six innings as the starter allowing four hits and two runs, both earned, as he struck out six.

The win gives the Dawgs a WCBL Westleading record of 32-10, while the Cards fall to 4-37, last in the East.

CALVIN DANIELS

Sports and if a Canadian league is a possibility down the road I’d like to watch some games to see what I think.

So, I will be watching social media to see just what viewing options will be offered.

Ditto an event coming up later in September.

It’s a while away, but mark Sept. 19 – 28, on your sports calendars. That is the time for the 2019 edition of the World Indoor Lacrosse Championships which are being held in Langley, BC.

The championship this year has 20-teams scheduled to compete, with the host nation the favourites as usual in indoor lacrosse.

“When Team Canada hits the floor for the 2019 FIL World Indoor Lacrosse Championship, they will do so with some lofty standards to live up to,” relates www. wilc2019.ca “The Championship has been held every four years since its inception in 2003. And all four times, Team Canada has

won the gold medal. A victory in 2019 – which will be hosted by Langley Events Centre from Sept.

19 to 28 – would make it five-for-five for the Canadian side.

“And if past tournaments are any indication, one of Canada’s main rivals will be the Iroquois Nationals.

“In all four previous Championships, it has been those two teams facing off with the gold medal on the line, with Canada prevailing each time.

“In 2003, Canada won 21-4. Four years later, the game required overtime, but the Canadians still prevailed, 15-14. In 2011, it was Canada winning 13-6 and then at the last Championship, in 2015, Canada won 12-8. The United States has also claimed bronze at all four previous Championships.

“Those three teams, in

that order, are currently ranked 1-2-3 in the world, with Israel and England ranked fourth and fifth.

Ireland, Czech Republic, Australia, Finland and Turkey round out the top 10.”

The entire Team Canada roster is made up of players from the National Lacrosse League including Saskatchewan Rush players Mark Matthews, Robert Church, Ben McIntosh, Kyle Rubisch, and Chris Corbeil on the 23-man roster.

One other event to mention so it can be marked on calendars is the Men’s World Cup of Rugby that starts Sept.

20 in Japan, with the Championship game Nov. 2. Since I am a rugby junkie, you can expect more on this, and Canada’s team in coming weeks.

Cardinals turn to local hurlers It was a night Cardinals fans will hope to soon forget as the visiting Okotok Dawgs rolled over the home side 18-2.

The Dawgs scored four in the top of the first off local starter Zach Goulden-Maddin in only his second Western Canadian Baseball League start.

Okotoks would add five in the second, then score in four more innings on way to the route.

Jaxin Valcke, Shay Shanaman and Jacob Melton all recorded home runs for Okotoks.

Goulden-Maddin would be tagged with the loss as the starter.

He went five innings and gave up 11 hits, and 11 earned runs.

Grady Hawkins, also from Yorkton would be brought in in relief going two innings in his second appearance with the Cards. He gave up four

Swift Current tied the game in the third, went ahead with a single run in the fourth, then

Yorkton hosted Okotoks Monday at Jubilee Field in the city. added seven more runs on the night for a 9-1 win.

Among the runs for the 57s were home runs from Breyden Eckout and Jared Binsfield.

Zachary Patterson was the winning pitcher for the 57s. Patterson struck

out five, while allowing the one run, unearned, on three hit.

Hut Smith took the loss for the Cardinals. Smith started and went seven innings. He allowed six earned runs and eight hits.

It was much the same scenario Saturday.

The 57s took the lead with a run in the home half of the first inning, a run matched by the Cardinals who plated a single marker in the top of the second.

However, the Yorkton run would prove the team’s only one of the game.

The 57s on the other hand posted four in the third, one in the fifth and two in the sixth on their way to an 8-1 win.

Tanner Holen went deep for the 57s, on a night he picked up four runs batted in.

Garrett Hawkins was the winning pitcher for Swift Current. He started and went five innings scattering three hits, striking out seven and allowing only one earned run.

Andrew Magness took the loss for Yorkton. He lasted 2.2 innings as the starter, giving up seven hits and five runs, all of those earned.

The host Millionaires jumped to a 3-0 lead in the third inning, but the Cardinals pecked away Continued on Page A19

Goulden-Maddin reflects on WCBL start

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer It was an unexpected opportunity for Zach Goulden-Maddin.

The 19-year-old baseball pitcher from Yorkton made his first Western Major Baseball League start Wednesday. He went seven-plus innings, scattering five hits, allowing three runs, two of those earned, while walking five and striking out five.

He left the game trailing only 3-1. The Cardinals would end up losing the game 8-1.

Last week GouldenMaddin thought he had

played his last baseball game of the season when he threw a 2-1 playoff game loss for the Yorkton Brewers in Langenburg.

But proverbial good luck came knocking for Goulden-Maddin.

“The Cardinals are kind of hurting right now for some arms,” he said, adding the team let it be known they would look at local pitchers who were interested in throwing some innings.

Goulden-Maddin was interested.

“I came and threw a bullpen after the game Tuesday against Swift Current,” he said.

The Cardinal brass liked what they saw.

“They gave me the ball and said I was pitching Wednesday,” said Goulden-Maddin.

While admitting working eight hours Wednesday was tough on the eve of his WCBL debut, when he was finally on the mound he felt ready.

“My arm was feeling great,” he said.

Early on GouldenMaddin said he tried to keep his approach simple.

“The first few innings I wanted to get out there and loosen up,” he said,

adding he focused on the fastball, and getting it across for strikes.

As the game wore on, and the Swift Current batters had seen him a couple of times, GouldenMaddin said he changed his pattern.

“It did get a little tougher,” he said, adding “I tried to use my baseball brain more.” That meant mixing in more off speed pitches, some curveballs and sliders and relying on his teammates.

“The defence behind me did a helluva job,” said Maddin, who was also quick to credit

his catcher Matthew Korman.

Thursday morning Maddin admitted his right arm was “a little bit sore,” but he added he has a full four days rest ahead of him.

And then, GouldenMaddin will go to the mound again for the Cardinals, likely Monday or Tuesday next week against the Okotoks Dawgs the top team in the WCBL West.

For the local pitcher it’s a dream come true which he never expected would.

“It’s one of the things you kind of think of grow-

ing up in Yorkton,” he said, adding through his minor baseball the Cardinals were always around “helping us play ball, to learn the ropes.”

Now Goulden-Maddin is wearing the jersey and looking to extend his baseball summer a few weeks with the Cardinals.

Next summer, well Goulden-Maddin said he has been inspired by the opportunity and plans to put more effort into training over the winter with an eye to being on the team’s opening day staff in 2020, not just a late season emergency hurler.

Orioles at Twilite provincials The Yorkton Orioles competed in the 45-and-over Twilite Baseball Provincials on the weekend.

The five-team event was hosted in Hudson Bay, with the Orioles ending up in the tournament final.

“The guys played great ball all weekend and we had a double life in the ‘A’ side final but the Northeast team had enough arms and some timely hitting to beat us twice,” reported Oriole team member Chris Wyatt.

“We went 3-0 and beat Northeast to get to the A final and they came up the B-side and beat us twice.”

Wyatt said while the Orioles came up a little short, it was still a great weekend.

“Hudson Bay were great hosts and even after heavy rains before the tournament had the diamonds in great shape,” he said.

Touring to keep kids active

By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The Parkland Valley Sport, Culture and Recreation District wants to see kids active from across the region. They’re touring different towns across the region with their summer tour, giving kids many activities to take part in.

On Friday, July 12, they stopped at the Yorkton Public Library.

Kendall Schneider with Parkland Valley SCVD said they want to be active and getting the kids working together in teams. It’s a district group, stretching from Foam Lake to Langenburg, and Preeceville to Esterhazy and many communities in between.

“We really like getting out to places where there isn’t always programming for kids, to make sure they also have opportunities to play this summer.”

The tour will stop in Calder, Balcarras and Melville this week. Keep track of where they are through their Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/ ParklandValleySCRD/.

The Parkland Valley Sport, Culture and Recreation District wants to see kids active from across the region, and running is a good way.

K of C hold centennary celebration On July 13th, 2019, Knights of Columbus Council 2031 celebrated their 100th Anniversary.

The original charter document establishing Council 2031 was signed on July 13th, 1919, and to be able to celebrate the exact date 100 years later is an amazing experience. We thank God for this wonderful sense of timing, and renew our vow and commitment to continue to do good work in His name.

Bringing greetings and congratulations to the event was MP Cathay Wagantall on behalf of the Federal Government, MLA Greg Ottenbreit on

behalf of the Provincial Government, Mayor Bob Maloney on behalf of the City of Yorkton, State Deputy Chris Bencharski on behalf of the Knights of Columbus Supreme Council and Saskatchewan State Council, as well as various other church and community organizations and individuals. Council 2031 would like to thank each of these individuals for their wonderful words of wisdom and insight.

As part of the 100 years celebration, the KofC Council 2031 presented Mayor Bob Maloney with a cheque to purchase a

park bench for the community. We are planning on having the park bench installed in the KofC Park. Thanks to the generosity of the attendees of the event, we were able to reach our Salvation Army Food Bank goal of 100 cans of food. We collected 111 cans, which will be included in the St. Gerard parish’s regular delivery to the Salvation Army. Council 2031 would like to thank the residents of the City of Yorkton and surrounding area for their support as we continue to support the many organizations in our community..

BALLANTYNE (nee McLeay) Flora Jean. January 29, 1924 July 5, 2019. Flora (Flo) Jean Ballantyne, aged 95, died after a brief illness with family by her side. Flora was born January 29, 1924, on the family farm near Barvas, SK. She attended Barvas School by sleigh in the winter and on horseback in the summer. In 1941, Flora moved to Yorkton to attain her grade 11 and 12 at the Yorkton Collegiate Institute. She lived with a family while attending school, babysitting and doing household chores to earn her board. Education was always very important to her and she often said it was ‘something no one can take away from you’. After graduation, Flora began her career as a telephone operator in Saltcoats, SK. She soon moved back to Yorkton to continue her career with Saskatchewan Government Telephones. In the spring of 1948, she met Robert (Bob) Ballantyne and after a brief courtship they were married in Regina on September 6, 1948. In 1949, they started their family and Flora remained home until 1963 when she returned to her work in telephones. While in Yorkton, Flora was very active in Knox Presbyterian Church, singing in the choir and participating in the Presbyterian Guild. She also spent time at her family farm, cooking meals and cleaning for her father and brother. In the spring of 1971, Bob’s job with J.I. CASE farm machinery transferred the family to Winnipeg, MB. Flora briefly thought of not working, as driving in the large city was intimidating, but Manitoba Telephones offered a position she couldn’t refuse. In 1977, they were relocated to Red Deer, AB, where Flora began working at Alberta Government Telephones. She worked for over thirty years retiring as assistant Chief Operator. Flora was very proud of her career and would often tell her grandchildren she never called in sick, not even once! After retirement, Flora and Bob travelled abroad exploring their Scottish heritage and spent several winters in Mesa, AZ. Bob died suddenly in 1993 and a few months later Flora moved to Saskatoon to be closer to family. She was able to spend time with her younger grandchildren who lived in Saskatoon, and her older grandchildren who had moved to Saskatoon for University. Until the age of 90 she frequently drove by herself to Eastend, Medicine Hat and Yorkton to visit family. When home in Saskatoon she enjoyed her condo’s exercise group and visiting with friends. Following a long career in telephones, Flora still loved talking on the phone but embraced the new technology of the iPad and FaceTimed with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was a glamorous woman with her hair always perfectly coiffed, lipstick on and her trademark string of pearls around her neck. Flora leaves to cherish her memory: daughters Candy Adam of Eastend, SK, and Kenna (Peter) Mac Mahon of Saskatoon, SK; daughter-in-law Cathy Brotzell of Medicine Hat, AB; grandchildren Mark (Chantelle) Adam and sons Bennett and Charlie; Michelle Adam (Lee Racette) and daughters Jade and Jamie; Lindsay (Chris) Holland and daughters Isla, Rosalyn and Estella; Breonie Mac Mahon; Emmanuel Hillock Ballantyne; Anthony Mac Mahon (Ewa Wolniczek); and Kameko Hillock Ballantyne; sister Georgina Pfeifer, brother-in-law Harry Nixon, sisters-in-law Olive McLeay and Ethel Ballantyne as well as numerous nieces, nephews and their families. Flora was predeceased by her husband Robert Ballantyne, son Robert Ballantyne Jr., son-in-law Dwight Adam, brothers Donald McLeay and Colin McLeay, sisters Mary Upshall and Hazel Nixon, brothers-in-law Allen Pfeifer, Herb Upshall, William Ballantyne and Kenneth Ballantyne. The celebration of life for Flora will be held Thursday July 25th at 3pm at Saskatoon Funeral Home with Rev. Roberto DeSandoli of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church officiating. Memorial donations may be made to the Cystic Fibrosis Canada in hope of a cure for her great grandsons, at Cysticfibrosis.ca or 2323 Yonge St, Suite 800 Toronto, ON, M4P 2C9. We would like to thank St. Paul’s Hospital Saskatoon for the wonderful non-ageist care Flora received during her stay with them. Condolences may be left at www.saskatoonfuneralhome.com.

BRISCHUK - Mary Brischuk (nee Evanik) - With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Mary Brischuk on Wednesday, July 17, 2019 after a lengthy illness, just short of her 90th birthday. Mary will be greatly missed by her five children and their families: Sylvia (Les) Koch, Alexander (Cathryn) Brischuk, Melinda (Rolf) Salfert, Mervin (Marianne) Brischuk, Eugene (Susan) Brischuk. Mom, Baba, Superbaba will be missed and her memory cherished by ten grandchildren and five greatgrandchildren. Mary had two brothers and four sisters in all. She leaves to mourn her memory sisters Rose, Sylvia, and Ann. She is lovingly remembered by numerous nieces and nephews throughout Canada. Mary was born on August 10, 1929 in Mukachevo, Czechoslovakia. When she was two years old her family immigrated to Canada and homesteaded in the Endeavour area where she grew up and proudly attended Brookview School. In her teen years, the family moved to a farm south of Norquay where she worked very hard and learned the skills of family farm life. She also worked for a time at Cherewyk’s General Store in Norquay. Still in her teens, she met and married John Brischuk from the Rhein district on November 1, 1947. After spending time in Rhein, Runnymede, and Hamilton, they returned to the Evanik farm at Norquay in 1955, where they remained, raising their family and participated in church and community life until their retirement and a move to Yorkton in 1993. After 51 years of marriage and dad’s passing in 1998, mom remained in their Yorkton home until her recent illness. Mary was a loving and kind mother who gave of herself to her children and all who visited her home. She raised her family through hard times but always managed to provide for their needs. She could never sit still. She loved her vegetable gardening and cherished her flower garden. She loved to read and was an avid Bingo player. While health allowed, she enjoyed many hours of social interaction and work at the parish center. Mom was determined, strong and independent after losing dad, the love of her life. She gladly learned to use a computer so that she could browse the internet and keep in touch daily with her children and grandchildren through Skype. She was determined to continue to drive her beloved car up until this spring when her health prevented her to continue. Mary was an intelligent, hard working woman who easily made friends and had lasting friendships throughout her life.

After moving to Yorkton she developed a daily routine of walking and enjoying coffee with special friends. Mom cherished her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She always welcomed everyone with food and dainties when they visited. Baba’s perogies, cabbage rolls, and meatballs were a family visit must! Mom’s faith and strength kept her going to the end. Her family would like to thank Dr. Osime, the staff at Yorkton Regional Health Center (1st East), and the staff at Jowsey House for the kind, gentle and loving care provided to her during this difficult time. The Brischuk family wishes to thank Fr. Bohdan Lukie and St. Mary’s Church for the beautiful services held for mom. Thank You to Bailey’s Funeral Care for their help and guidance during this difficult time. Mary, Mom, Baba, Superbaba, Aunt, friend and neighbour will be greatly missed, but lovingly cherished and remembered by all. She has found peace in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Heaven has welcomed her home. Vichnaya Pamyat!! Eternal Memories!! Prayers were held on Friday, July 19, 2019 along with the Holy Rosary led by UCWLC. The Funeral Liturgy was held on Saturday, July 20, 2019, both services at St. Mary’s Ukrainian Catholic Church in Yorkton with Very Rev. Father Bohdan Lukie, C.Ss.R. as the Celebrant. The responses were led by cantor, Lorne Stechyshyn and St. Mary’s Choir. The cross bearer was Eugene Brischuk and the epistle reader was Alynn Bomok. The interment followed in the Garden of St. Luke at Yorkton Memorial Gardens with Nicholas Koch, Alex Brischuk, Darren Koch, Kristofer Salfert, Mitchell Brischuk and Matthew Brischuk serving as the casket bearers.

His accolades and achievements filled his basement and garage with trophies, pictures and plaques. This included his induction into the Yorkton and Canadian Halls of Fame for broomball. Rod was also acknowledged on becoming a Canadian 9-ball billiards champion.

Rod remained single, as his passion, dedication and knowledge of sports took him across Canada, volunteering to organize tournaments, memorials and fundraisers with gusto. In his ‘free time’, Rod was fishing and hunting with the guys or laying on the sandy beaches of Cuba, Hawaii or Mexico. Rod also has a passion for food. Spices filled his cupboards and his back yard, full of flowers & fountains, two BBQ’s, a smoker, and a freezer full of meat.

Rod was a gifted salesman, he was always selling something, from pots and pans to miscellaneous items for company logo advertising.

LASTIWKA – Dora Lastiwka of Theodore, widow of Bill Lastiwka entered eternal rest on July 10, 2019 at the Theodore Health Centre.

She was 86 years of age. Dora Lastiwka was born on May 22, 1933, the second child of Bill and Mary (Chobotar) Marchuk of the Drobot district. Dora received her education at Chernowitz School.

After her schooling, Dora remained on the family farm helping to look after her younger siblings. It was at this time that she met their neighbor boy, Bill Lastiwka. Bill and Dora were married on August 8, 1954 and lived on a farm 4 miles north of Theodore. They later moved to the next quarter and built a new house which they called their permanent home. They were members of St. John’s Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Riverside) which Dora was dedicated to. She spent countless hours helping with cleaning and preparing meals for church functions and faithfully attended the many services that’s she was able to. Dora’s health never was the best when she was a child, but she worked hard on the farm with her husband, doing chores, helping on the field, growing a huge garden and making abundant meals to feed her family during seeding, haying and harvest time. Even with her not being well, Dora managed to have three healthy children, which she tried her best to feed and nuture them. Mom was a very spiritual person. If things were going wrong, her comment would be “It will be better tomorrow, don’t worry”. She believed that God had given her the strength and will power to live a long life that she had. Dora loved to bake and cook.

Whenever family or neighbors came for a visit, they would never leave without a cup of coffee or tea and a huge lunch. Ukrainian Christmas Eve was a very special for mom. She would have all the traditional dishes for supper and have a lot of family over for the meal. She made sure her children would not break the tradition and meaning of Christmas. Ukrainian New Year’s would be a very busy time for her, preparing a huge supper and inviting neighbors, friends and family for Dad’s birthday and celebrating the New Year. She made the most beautiful Kolochi and beautifully decorated Korovai, which she made for many family members and friends. Easter was also a very special day for mom, when we went to Church and blessed paska. Mom always said Easter was a new beginning.

She loved bingo, attended as many Theodore Buffs hockey games as she could, loved to play cards and liked fishing at the park. She volunteered her time with the Orthodox Ladies Aid, The Perogy Pinchers and Theodore Senior Citizen Club. Prayers were held on Monday, July 15, 2019 Yorkton Memorial Gardens Family Centre and the Funeral Service Tuesday, July 16, 2019 at Holy Transfiguration Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Yorkton with Rev. Father Michael Faryna officiating. The responses were led by Yvonne Panchuk & Parish Choir Members. The cross bearer was Roger Hardie. The interment followed at St. John’s Parish Cemetery, Riverside with Dwayne Sabulsky, Louis Lahosky, Clay Serby, Conrad Raddysh, Randy Kuzek and David Dariechuk serving as the casket bearers. Memorial donations may be made to the Riverside Cemetery Fund, Theodore Health Centre or a Charity of choice. Condolences to the family can be posted at www.baileysfuneralhome.com.

We know Dad has been walking slowly down the road, worn and wide, for he would want her there quickly to seek the journey’s end by his side.

He would make it easy for her to find him down some shining highroad when she came, he has been walking slowly and often looked back pausing to hear if she is calling his name.

With laughing eyes and tears of joy she found him today.

Knowing they are together again brings great comfort to us here.

trol, but is not to be used as a desiccant,” said Greg Bartley, Manager, Crop Protection and Crop Quality at Pulse Canada.

“Improper or off-label use can leave residues that exceed maximum allowable limits and put crop marketability at risk.”

When using glyphosate to control weeds pre-harvest, growers can avoid unacceptable residues in the harvested seed by following these Keep it Clean! guidelines: Waiting until the least mature areas of the crop reach a seed moisture level of less than 30 per cent before applying glyphosate to avoid unacceptable residues.

Growers can refer to the crop staging guide at keepingitclean.ca to ensure the product is not applied too early.

Adhering to the recommended pre-harvest interval (PHI), which is the wait time between a product application and when the crop can be harvested.

Checking with their grain buyer before applying pre-harvest glyphosate to oats, as it may not be accepted. Malt barley will not be accepted if treated.

“We know that glyphos-

ate is under increased customer scrutiny, but by using the product correctly, growers can help to ensure the quality and safety of Canadian canola, cereals and pulse crops, and keep markets open for all,” said Brenna Mahoney, Director of Communications and Stakeholder Relations at Cereals Canada.

This level of scrutiny has the potential to impact the way the product can be used in Canada in the future. By following the steps listed above, Canadian farmers can do their part to demonstrate responsible product use and protect the investments they have made in their crop.

“By carefully planning and managing fall applications of glyphosate, growers can protect their investment and help to keep this effective and valuable tool available for use in Canadian crop production for years to come,” said Brian Innes, Vice President, Public Affairs at the Canola Council of Canada.

Growers are encouraged to visit keepingitclean.ca/glyphosate to learn more and to see examples of various crops at the correct stage to receive fall glyphosate application.
