Cathay Wagantall was easily returned for another term as Yorkton-Melville Member of Parliament in Monday’s federal election.

Wagantall returned in Yorkton-Melville

By Tanner WallaceScribner Staff Writer The Yorkton-Melville riding will remain under Conservative leadership once again as Cathay Wagantall won the election.

Wagantall received

over 22,900 votes or just over 69 per cent of the votes.

“It’s even more honouring to be able to continue to serve the riding of Yorkton-Melville,” she said, “I’ve never had so much engagement directly calling, emailing, asking so many questions

and having so many concerns. The results show that they had the confidence in me with the answers I was able to give them and that trust, and that means more than I can imagine to be able to go to the hill and to represent YorktonMelville and continue to

do my best to represent them and see more done for rural Canada.”

Wagantall beat five other candidates with Halsten David Rust (NDP) coming in second with 3,957 votes (12%), Braden Robertson (PPC) followed up with 3,150 votes (9.5%), then Jordan

Ames-Sinclair (Liberal), who received 1,949 (5.9%), then Denise Loucks (Maverick Party), and Valerie Brooks (Green Party) receiving less than 2% of the vote with Loucks getting 583 votes, and Brooks getting 560 votes.

Federally, Wagantall

said it wasn’t what they wanted, but it just means there is more work to do.

“It’s been tough, and COVID-19 has really complicated that and their (Liberal government) approach to it and shutting down the House of Commons. I certainly

Cart storage out of clubhouse plan

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer It took a protracted debate at the regular meeting of Yorkton Council Monday, but another step was taken in terms of planning for a new clubhouse at Deer Park Golf Course.

The decision made Monday

was to complete clubhouse design without under patio golf cart storage, or in fact any new cart storage.

The motion, made by Councillor Chris Wyatt and passing with a four – three vote, came after hearing an update on the design of the clubhouse that had consultants seeking direction on cart storage.

The Deer Park Clubhouse Steering Committee and aodbt architecture and interior design are nearing the end of the detailed design process for the proposed new Deer Park Clubhouse, explained Darcy McLeod – Director of Community Development, Parks & Recreation with the City Monday.

The report Monday updated Council on the detailed design to date as well as obtain direction from Council on how to proceed with cart storage.

“This is required to allow completion of the final design so that a preliminary cost can be brought back for Council consideration when deciding whether to proceed to tender

or not,” said McLeod.

Mitch Strocen of aodbt told Council they had continued to look at under patio storage, going so far as to seek third party costing that pegged it at $500,000.

By contract a standalone building option was

Adam’s curling career marked

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer Yorkton’s Gerry Adam has been inducted into the Governor General’s Curling Club of Canada.

The Governor General’s Curling Club is an organization under the patronage of the Governor General of Canada, since its inception

by Lord Dufferin in 1874. It

has as its members those who have served the sport for an extended time with significant achievement and distinction locally, provincially, nationally and internationally and whose selection is endorsed by the sitting Governor General of Canada.

In addition to Adam others inducted were Rob Dewhirst of Regina, Dianne Barker and Norm Daley of Kamloops,

BC, Ken Duggan and Laura Lochanski of Edmonton and Rick Mutton of Winnipeg.

“I was kind of shocked,” Adam told Yorkton This Week. “For a small town Saskatchewan boy from Tonkin to even get nominated ... it’s quite overwhelming ... You don’t expect honours like this.”

For Adam it truly has been a lifetime of involvement in the sport.

“I would probably have been eight, nine when mom and dad took me to the Tonkin Curling Rink,” he said.

At the time three Pearce brothers ran the rink, and Adam said they took a liking to him, and let him out onto the ice to throw rocks while his parents socialized.

“I was 12 or 13 before I got into real games,” he added.

It was a common enough

way to start years ago, but today not so much.

“The two-sheeter (curling rink) are few and far between now,” said Adam, although the Tonkin rink is still there.

The small local rinks that have been disappearing, were once the hotbed of the sport, a place everyone in a community seemed to gather to throw rocks.

WAGANTALL Continued from Page A1 hope we get back to business the way it should be done in the house and take advantage of our opportunities because we are an essential service, every other country has their Government operating in full swing, and I will push hard that we have that opportunity to do that. There is a lot of things that are important to me, but the divisiveness has been really difficult, so I want to see us come together in ways that have not been possible because of the approach that the Federal Government has taken, so certainly hoping we can make a change there.”

Wagantall said that she feels Canada is once again divided.

“There is a challenge there with even way the election went again, where our decisions are not reflected in the broader pictures,” she said. “I do want to take a look at the fact the PPC played a role in this. There are many seats where they caused that vote to divide and to split up the middle and the Liberals to come through. There were opportunities there if we had worked together that there was a potential to form Government, so we have to look at ourselves as well, and there is no question that our freedoms are at

stake in Canada now, and we need to work together to see those things dealt with in a way that pleases us out here in the West. I can tell you it’s not just rural Canada in the West, the things that impact us here impact rural Ontario as well, so I am looking forward to working with other folks from that area to really push the influence of rural Canada and our impact on the GDP of this country and the prosperity of this country.”

Wagantall added that her campaign would not have been successful without the amazing team of volunteers that she had this year.

CLUBHOUSE Continued from Page A1 anticipated to cost $350,000.

But Wyatt said no cart storage was the best option.

“We’re talking about cart storage when we don’t have to store carts,” he said, noting the carts are owned by the contracted course manager.

He added the $500,000, or even $350,000 could be better spent on other projects the City is looking at such as what to do with the Kinsmen Arena.

Coun. Ken Chyz, who sat opposed when the votes were cast said, cart rentals are a major revenue source and he suggested “in 10-years or

less” the City will “take ownership of the carts.”

Mayor Mitch Hippsley said the expense might make sense if there was a return on the investment.

“I’d like to see more accurate plans of where we can recoup the cost of golf cart storage,” he said.

City Administration did remind the motion made by Wyatt could be tabled pending more information, but the Councillor was not wanting to wait.

“I’m not in favour of delaying this any further,” he said.

Coun. Darcy Zaharia was for a time unsure which way to go.

“We’re talking about cart storage when we don’t have to store carts,” Chris Wyatt “In a perfect world it would be great to have underground storage,” he said, but also noted the $500,000 price tag was a lot of money. In the end he would support the motion.

Coun. Randy Goulden, who was one of those opposed, said the return on the money would come over decades of use. She noted the current clubhouse was started in 1960

and has proven a good investment.

“What do we want for the future?” she asked.

Answering her own question Goulden said they want a facility that will exist for the next 60-years and can be something people can “be proud of in our city.”

With the decision made regarding cart storage, McLeod told Council users have continued to

be consulted through the fine tuning of the clubhouse, and will continue to be in its final stages.

The Steering Committee met with the user groups to receive feedback and input, which have been included in the design process.

“Public input will continue once direction is received for cart storage so that the final design can be shared with the public,” said McLeod.

The intent is that an online input process will be used, similar to the process used for the Gallagher Centre Renewal project.

Specifically, the plans will be made available

for the public through a project website where they can provide feedback and ask questions, the answers to which will also be posted online.

This feedback will be shared with Council as part of the project final presentation, he explained.

As for the cost of the plan, that is the next step.

“The financial implications will be determined and brought forward with the final design presentation, currently anticipated for the Oct. 25, regular Council meeting, when the project will be ready to proceed to tender, if Council so directs,” said McLeod.

scenes for the sport in more recent years helping Yorkton host major world curling events with teams from across Canada and the world descending on the city to curl including the 2020 Meridian Canadian Open.

“For the club those were great moments,” he said.

The Governor General’s Curling Club of Canada held its 147th annual meeting (AGM) in Regina Sept. 13.

In tribute to the 50th year of membership for Canadian curling icon and resident of Regina Ernie Richardson, the meeting was held in his home-town.

Adam said Richardson “is the idol of all idols” for curlers in the province, and while having met him before, to again

have the opportunity to talk with the curling legend at such a gala evening was definitely a big part of the night.

“It is a true privilege for Governor General’s Curling Club to acknowledge and pay tribute to Ernie this year” said GGCC President Pat Reid in a release. “We all admire his 50 years of very active membership in the GGCC and the strong support he and Rikki have extended to the, For the Love of Curling Scholarship program for many years.

In addition to paying tribute to Ernie, the Governor General’s Curling Club will award its first, For the Love of Curling Scholarship in the amount of $2500, to student-curler Chantel Hoag of Gravelbourg, Saskatchewan.

CURLING Continued from Page A1 “You had two choices play hockey, or you curled. The curling rink in Tonkin we went there all the time,” said Adam, adding it was rare the youth who went into nearby Yorkton for basketball or volleyball when he was growing up.

Today, it’s harder to get youth to curl.

“Young people have so much opportunity to play different sports now.

Curling is a small percentage of what they can do,” said Adam.

For Adam the early introduction to curling fostered a passion for the sport, and he developed to become one of Saskatchewan’s best.

When asked for a highlight the answer came quickly.

Adam was 36 at the time and admitted he was beginning to think he would never make it to ‘the Show’ as the Brier was known among those

in the sport.

“It was a dream to go to the ‘Big Show’,” he said.

Clydesdales exported to Scotland

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer A Clydesdale breeder from Swan Plain, SK. (north of Norquay), has recently exported two black fillies back to the country of their origin; Scotland.

The sale came out of the blue, especially in the midst of a worldwide pandemic.

“This February I was contacted through my Bighorn Clydesdale Facebook Page by a lady wondering if I had any black fillies for sale,” explained Lacey Unterschute, owner of Bighorn Clydesdales.

“This became a bigger conversation -- one that ended with a yearling and a two-year-old now residing in Scotland.”

“I had a vet(erinarian) out to inspect both fillies -- called a pre purchase exam -- to assure the buyers that the horse were healthy and sound,” explained Unterschute.

“After making sure all vaccinations required were administered, they were placed in quarantine at a facility near Calgary where they flew out of. A minimum of 30-days of quarantine is

needed.”

They ended up staying longer due to waiting on flights.

Unterschute explained the company in Britain that deals with shipping horses by air was focused on getting 300 equestrian horses to the Summer Olympics in Tokyo and that caused delays in getting her Clydesdales on an airplane.

Each horse also needed to be microchipped and each received their own equine passport for international travel.

And “like if travelling to the US, they each needed a negative Coggins test and health papers drawn up prior to departing,” noted Unterschute.

The horses finally flew direct from Calgary on Sept. 7, to Luxembourg.

“They were looked over by a vet to ensure all was well, documents were checked and after they had a bit of a rest they were put on a trailer and continued on,” said Unterschute.

They were ferried over to Dover, England.

They arrived in Newmarket, where they stopped and had another rest.

“The last day they

Raya and Skye. Taken the day they were leaving for quarantine. travelled through England up to their new home in Scotland,” said Unterschute.

Unterschute said she is in awe of the trip her mares took.

“Oh what I would have given to be able to see the countryside that they saw out of their trailer windows,” she said.

They arrived late Sept 10, (11th in Scotland).

The sale was a special one for Unterschute.

“I have sold horses all over the US and Canada but this was the first international sale for me,” she said.

But, why the interest from a country where the breed originated?

Unterschute said in the past much of the best black Clydesdale stock was exported to Canada for big prices, and that all but left the black horses extinct in their native country.

“With reduced numbers of black Clydesdale numbers in Scotland it’s a wonderful feeling to know you have hopefully contributed to future generations of these beautiful horses back in their ancestral country,”

she said.

As it is Unterschute herself is a relative newcomer to raising the big horses.

It was only in 2002 that the first Bighorn bred Clydesdale was born - a black filly.

That was the beginning of Bighorn Clydesdales, said Unterschute.

That first mare came from long time Clydesdale breeder, the late Greg Gallagher.

Unterschute said Gallagher and her father often helped each other with harvest and other work. One year Greg offered to pay her father and he refused.

“One day I was drawing a picture of a horse and Greg said ‘Oh you like horses’,” she said, adding “he has a twinkle in his eye.”

Soon, Greg brought the young artist a yearling mare. He would later breed the mare to a stallion for her, and her path was set.

The two fillies sent

to Scotland are a granddaughter and great granddaughter of ‘Donegal Dr. Pepper’ - the 2011 World Clydesdale Stallion and supreme horse at that show in Madison Wisconsin. He was bred and raised by Gallagher.

“I had used ‘Doc’ for a couple of years,” said Unterschute. “I retained a couple of mares and sold a couple of stallions off Doc before he sold him. One stallion is currently being used in Ontario at a breeding farm.”

Today, Unterschute has between 20-30 horses at any one time, most still tracing their linage back to the original mare.

“All are registered Clydesdales, mostly black, with a white face and four white feet,” explained Unterschute.

“I have two black stallions that I use for breeding mares. I had 11 mares with these two this summer for April 2022 foaling.”

So why Unterschute’s

love of the big black horses?

“Anyone who has been around a Clyde can’t help but to fall in love with them,” she said. “They are people pleasers.

“Many people think that they are only a hitch or carriage horse. But people are beginning to realize that with their calm nature they make excellent riding horses.”

And, what of the now Scottish lassies?

“I do hope to be able to see Skye and Raya again,” said Unterschute, adding she has an eye on an upcoming event.

“There have been World Clydesdale shows in Canada and the USA, but next year is the first time that Scotland will host the World Show, (Oct. 20-23),” she said. “As of right now they plan to show them (the two mares) at this show. It would be a dream to see them in person at this show.

“We will have to wait and see what the future brings. COVID-19 and the shape the world is in then will play a big factor if travel is an option for us.”

Also Lacey and husband Brett have three boys; 1 month old Kayce; Declan 4 and Jasper almost 6-year-old that makes it hard to get away, she added.

But the event is alluring.

“The World show discussed having a ‘Breeders Tour” immediately following the show, where they would take breeders from Canada and the USA to the farms and breeders in the UK,” said Unterschute. “They want to build relationships between breeders to strengthen the bloodlines of the Clydesdale to ensure a healthy future for these beautiful horses.”

Unterschute said she is proud to be part of strengthening the breed in its native country.

I’m happy that some of these good black bloodlines found their way back to Scotland,” she said. “It’s only right that’s where they should be.”

Perspective Moe badly off his game in COVID-19 response

Murray Mandryk is a political columnist with the Leader Post

Politics Premier Scott Moe appears to believe there’s overwhelming support for how he’s handling the current COVID-19 fight.

He’s read the situation incorrectly.

While there is an extremely vocal minority protesting vaccines and any return to masking orders and maybe a larger minority that might be slightly sympathetic or fearful of Saskatchewan returning to restrictions, the vast majority of people here are doing whatever we all must do to get through this pandemic as safely as we can.

Yes, minority rights have to be respected in a democracy, but those minority’s right end about where the majority’s right begin.

For Moe to cater this group — presumably, because it is vocal and, arguably politically influential — is simply wrong.

“We’re not going back to widespread public health orders and restrictions that we once had in place,” Moe said at press conference earlier this month. “That would be grossly unfair to the vast majority of Saskatchewan residents who have made the right decision and have went out and got themselves vaccinated.”

But the vast majority of Saskatchewan residents who made the right decision did so because it was right thing to do personally and the right thing to do for the betterment of all of us. We all just want to get through this pandemic as quickly as possible.

Why Moe and his Sask. Party haven’t understood this is puzzling.

Moe has remained one of the most popular premiers in Canada since first being chosen for the job in January 2018 by being able to relate to voters’ concerns and by showing remarkable political instincts. It is this skill set that guided him to a massive fourth-term win last October where the Sask. Party massive majority he inherited from Brad Wall didn’t take so much as a dent.

But both those instincts and that ability to relate have been badly off the mark of late.

They surely weren’t evident as Moe has sat mum during this federal election campaign when a Saskatchewan Premier wouldn’t respond to shots from Justin Trudeau at Saskatchewan’s recent handling of COVID-19.

They surely weren’t present this summer when Moe was ignoring the rising case counts and choose to seen at golfing event.

It sure isn’t evident when he seemed to be under the impression that Saskatchewan people sick of COVID-19 wouldn’t accept some reinstated of restrictions like indoor masking.

And, most crucially, any political instinct or basic common sense that has been Moe’s brand has been loss in his refusal to responde to those record COVID-19 case counts — more than 500 cases in one single day including more than 100 little kids under 12 years not eligible for vaccines.

To this Moe has responded the problem is those not willing to get vaccinated? Yes, they are a problem, but what about little kids getting sick as they go back to school? What about the reality that the Sask. Party government message has been that adults who are refusing to get vaccinated are simply exercising their freedom of choice?

How is the current situation in which the unvaccinated taking up ICU beds otherwise needed for those having heart attacks or accidents fair to the vaccinated?

Why aren’t we pushing vaccine passports to make life difficult for those choosing not to get vaccinated?

How bad does the Saskatchewan government look when it appears to be waiting until Alberta — reputed to have the worst COVID-19 strategy in the country — takes the lead?

Perhaps it’s simply because Moe got caught up the notion of being the first to re-open — a notion that was initially popular. Maybe he read the political winds wrong or just didn’t want to make a move until after the federal election for fear of ramifications on federal Conservatives.

Whatever the reason, Moe has badly read the situation we are now in.

Murray Mandryk has been covering provincial politics since 1983.

◆Editorial◆

Political landscape changes little I

n an election that no one seemed to want called, and many seemed disinterested in, including some Yorkton-Melville candidates who never seemed to plant a sign, or do public appearances, nothing much ended up changing.

The Liberal Party has again managed a win, albeit once more with a minority government to manage and a slimmer bulge in terms of seats.

Not surprisingly either, the political map remains rather familiar.

The Bloc Quebecois still hold a significant number of seats in Quebec as a party with a strictly regional focus although sitting in a Canadian Parliament.

Saskatchewan and Alberta and chunks of Manitoba and British Columbia are again strongly Conservative, leaving a huge swath of central Canada with barely a voice at the table of power once again, with one Liberal elected in Calgary.

The New Democrats keep a voice and it again will be one the Liberals will need to pay attention to in a minority government.

The Green Party faltered too, but landed a pair of seats to at least have a voice in Parliament, better than either of the upstart People’s Party of Canada, or Maverick Party managed Monday.

So the landscape hasn’t changed greatly.

In the end the Conservatives polled more votes, in large part because they so dominate to Prairies, but popular vote doesn’t mean a lot, only the number of seats won.

And in Canada most seats are won without a clear majority. It is the flaw

and perhaps the strength of a multiparty system.

Two parties might give you majority wins, but it tends to also polarize politics more severely to the left and right. In Canada there remains a range of parties with their own pros and cons, as was seen locally with six names on the ballot.

So what lies ahead?

An angrier Prairie region to be sure where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been vilified almost since day one, and his return to the Prime Minister’s chair will not sit well, especially given the Conservative swell of support here.

It may mean changes in leadership lie ahead at the federal level.

Headed into this election many saw the Trudeau-led Liberals as ripe for the picking with a leader dragging an ever growing pile of baggage but Conservative Erin O’Toole couldn’t get it done. That won’t be popular in the party’s backrooms.

Jagmeet Singh hasn’t managed a breakthrough for the NDP in his time either, and a change may be seen as necessary.

Trudeau may well not be around when the next election is called either.

He has to know he slipped through this one to the surprise of many, and he can walk away having given his fair share of time to his country – whether you like him or not.

As for the policies of government, the course of the Liberals won the day Monday, and it’s unlikely to change greatly in the months ahead, which may not be popular here, but as a democracy the vote went the Liberals way.

Training doctors for Yorkton and SE SK. Saskatchewan’s residency training program is being expanded in the southeastern part of the province, the Department of Academic Family Medicine (DAFM) within the University of Saskatchewan (USask) College of Medicine and Saskatchewan Health Authority announced today.

“This expansion will provide valuable experience to our medical graduates and help improve access to care for residents in smaller, rural communities,” Mental Health and Addictions, Seniors and Rural and Remote Health Minister Everett Hindley said. “It will also contribute to physician retention outside of major centres. We are pleased to support the new site

with $1.2 million in funding this fiscal year.”

The expansion will provide training opportunities in 12 rural Saskatchewan communities: Estevan, Humbolt, Moosomin, Weyburn and Yorkton, where a significant amount of training will take place, as well as Esterhazy, Indian Head, Melville, Redvers, Strasbourg, Watrous, and Wynyard. Similar to the northwestern Saskatchewan site approach, many communities will operate as training sites to create a fuller learning experience and enhance patient care throughout the region.

“This is a great step for our program and for family medicine in Saskatchewan,” said Dr. Kathy

Lawrence, DAFM provincial head. “Expanding our program means that we can provide additional training opportunities for USask medical graduates, while increasing medical supports to rural communities in southeast Saskatchewan.”

There are currently 48 family medicine residency spots available in Saskatchewan. This expansion will allow four more family medicine residents to pursue training in the province, bringing the provincial family medicine residency allocation to 52.

The program will welcome residents to the new training site in July 2022.

York Lake seeks City services

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer The York Lake Regional Park Board of Directors has requested the City of Yorkton consider contracting some services to the park.

Those services would include but would not be limited to Bylaw enforcement & Building Services Permitting & Inspection of construction within the Park, York Lake Board member Lawrence Wegner told the regular meeting of Yorkton Council Monday.

As background Darcy McLeod – Director of Community Development, Parks & Recreation with the City delved into the Park’s history for Council.

“York Lake Regional Park was established though a joint application to the province, by the City of Yorkton, the RM of Wallace and the RM of Orkney. Over time, the sponsoring municipalities were required to enter into agreements with the province that would allow the York Lake Regional Park board to take advantage of provincial grants,” he explained.

The City of Yorkton was the only sponsoring municipality to sign these agreements. “And thus became recognized as the sole sponsoring municipality for York Lake Regional Park,” said McLeod.

Administration believes in the importance and value of Regional cooperation, especially when it comes to the City’s Community Safety Officer program, noted Nicole Baptist - Bylaw & Safety Supervisor with the City in response to the request.

It was Administration’s recommendation that they begin negotiations for a “fee for service” agreement with York Lake Regional Park Authority Board to provide assistance with Bylaw enforcement and Building Permit issuance and Inspections.

The recommendation was supported unanimously by Council.

McLeod also notes, “The City of Yorkton is legally responsible for approving the York Lake Regional Park Constitution, as well as appointing the York Lake Regional Park Authority

Board. ... The Board has no legal authority unless its constitution is

approved by Yorkton City Council and the board members are appointed

by Yorkton City Council.”

As a result, Council also unanimously

approved the amendments to the York Lake Regional Park constitu-

tion as presented by the York Lake Regional Park Board.

Woodland Wonder Walk set Autumn is a time to get out and enjoy the crisp air and changing foliage of the beautiful outdoors.

This year’s Culture Days is adding a little something extra to encourage walkers and wanderers to explore the great outdoors on one of Yorkton’s nature walks, the Yorkton Ravine Ecological Preserve with Yorkton Woodlands Wonder Walk.

Twila Napoleoni, an Art Educator, is one of the many collaborators of Culture Days 2021 here in Yorkton.

Inspired by a similar trail at Candle Lake, Napoleoni brought back the idea to bring the community of Yorkton together in a very fun and equally safe art adventure. It consists of community members creating an outdoors miniature

woodlands creature home, and then placing it somewhere alongside the trail so that those who pass by will be able to enjoy a miniature world of wonderful art.

Who can participate?

Everyone.

Whether you’re young or old, by yourself, with your family or want to get a group of friends or co-workers together, anyone can participate. It’s simple.

Find a base (tree rounds, boards, a wooden box, etc.), gather natural objects, and create a little home. It’s important to remember that your creation will be sitting outside in the elements, so you may not want to include anything that can get ruined when wet.

Napoleoni suggests using old flower pots, stones, moss, sticks,

and anything else that your imagination comes up with.

The art work can be placed any time between Sept 24 and Oct. 24.

The earlier it’s placed, the more people will see it.

Everyone who participates will need to take their creation off the trail by Oct. 24.

If you don’t want to create, then you are still welcome to come down and enjoy what surprises the trail has to offer.

Need inspiration and would like to build your house with a group of others? Napoleoni will be holding a workshop Sunday, Sept.

26 at 2 pm at the Gallagher Centre.

While this event is free, you will still need to register at 306-641-5395 as space is limited.

Art students at Dreambuilders have already started creating their pieces for the Yorkton Woodlands Wonder Walk.

Legion supports Health Foundation The Royal Canadian Legion Branch #77 in Yorkton has donated $3,000 to The Health Foundation “Having current equipment in the lab of the regional hospital is very important to legion members, Veterans and many people in the community,” said Legion President Ken Gordon. “It is important to maintain and enhance our local services.”

“The money for this donation came from our annual Poppy Campaign,” he added. “The Poppy Campaign is part of our Remembrance Day observances, and these funds have to be used for charitable activities that will improve

the lives of our veterans, retired military personnel, emergency service workers and others in the community. We cannot use funds raised in the Poppy Campaign for regular legion activities.”

“The Yorkton Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion is a strong supporter of the work of The Health Foundation and we are grateful for the continuing financial support they provide,” said Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation. “The equipment we need in the regional hospital lab will benefit everyone who lives in east central Saskatchewan.”

Legion President Ken Gordon recently presented a cheque to Ross Fisher, E x e c u t i v e Director of The Health Foundation

Council learns of rail safety work

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer Yorkton Council received and filed a presentation on rail safety from CN Police Cst. Henry Neumiller at its regular meeting Monday.

In 2020 in North America, there were 1992 collisions with trains, resulting in over 958 serious injuries or fatalities, he told Council.

In 2020 the total number of incidents, in Canada decreased to 187, with 57 fatalities, and 31 serious injuries.

In 2020, Saskatchewan saw 14 incidents, resulting in one serious injury and two fatalities.

Neumiller said working around trains is simply a dangerous thing.

“It’s a dangerous industry with huge equipment moving very fast,” he said.

To help raise awareness of safety

21094FF0

issues National Rail Safety Week runs Sept. 20-26, and in Saskatchewan the provincial government has officially proclaimed Rail Safety Week.

This year, the Ministry of Highways and the Canadian Safety Train Express are reminding everyone to stay safe around trains and ‘Stop Track Tragedies’, noted a provincial release.

“Our government recognizes how vital rail transportation is in Saskatchewan and how important it is to be safe when encountering both trains and crossings,” Highways Minister Fred Bradshaw said. “Railways make up a significant portion of our transportation network and are absolutely essential to the success of our economy, but if people aren’t aware of proper safety measures, they can also present a potential danger.”

“Rail Safety Week highlights the importance of stop, look and listen,” Canadian Safety Train Express CEO Perry Pellin said. “During these difficult times, people’s attention is often elsewhere, and it is important to remember that trains can come at any time and in any direction. We need to work at preventing those incidents that are preventable with more care and attention at railway grade crossings. Rail Safety Week is a good place to start.”

Neumiller told Council, during the Railway Safety Week 2020, Operation

Lifesaver in collaboration with Mattel created the “Stay safe with Thomas” project, based on the popular Thomas and friend’s series.

This year Operation Lifesaver will be continuing the “Stay safe with Thomas” campaign with the release of a new Thomas and Friends book promoting railway safety to children.

In addition, on Sept. 21, Operation Lifesaver launches Operation Clear Track. This is the largest Railway safety enforcement initiative in North America.

Law enforcement agencies from across North America put forth a joint effort to conduct strategic enforcement to reduce the number of incidents involving the railway and ultimately save lives.

Yorkton Council unanimously supported filing the rail presentation.

Saskatchewan has 13 operational, privately-owned shortline railways.

These operate on more than 2,000 kilometres of track and connect to more than 6,000 kilometres of federally-regulated track.

Motorists with any questions or concerns regarding railway safety, signage, work zones and more are welcome to reach out to the Highway Customer Service Centre at 1-844-SK-HIWAY, Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., or visit us online anytime.

Water needs our protection We are on the eve of World Rivers Day, and it is likely many among regular readers will not have been aware the day was upcoming.

But, it should be a day with a higher profile.

So what is the day, set for Sept. 26, all about?

“World Rivers Day commemorates the many values of rivers and encourages river stewardship and conservation around the globe—a massive worldwide event involving up to 100 countries that has its roots in British Columbia Rivers Day,” detailed a recent press release to pop into my inbox recently.

The day is one I was aware existed, and have written about before, but admittedly the day tends to slip from the forefront rather too easily.

Yet, the release noted “Millions of people and thousands of events, both physical and virtual, will mark World Rivers Day 2021 on Sunday, Sept. 26, in what has become one of the largest environmental celebrations on the planet.”

That is impressive, although in many areas of Canada I still think the day is relatively unknown, largely because in Canada we still have relatively clean air, open spaces, abundant wildlife and yes clean water.

Since Canadians enjoy rather easy access to things ‘wild’ it’s perhaps just too easy to dismiss

Agriculture THIS WEEK

Calvin Daniels environmental concerns, including efforts to preserve fresh, clean water as rather unnecessary.

But again the release notes things are not the same around our world.

“With many of the world’s rivers in a degraded state and facing increasing pressures associated with pollution, industrial development, and climate change, close to 100 countries will participate in this year’s activities.

“The theme of this year’s event is once again “waterways in our communities” with a special emphasis on the need to protect and restore urban waterways which are often under great pressure.”

This year is the 16th annual World Rivers Day, which has its roots in the great success of BC Rivers Day, which is celebrating its 41st anniversary in Canada’s western-most province and which Angelo founded in conjunction with the Outdoor Recreation Council.

“World Rivers Day strives to increase public awareness of the importance of our waterways as well as the many threats confronting them,” said Angelo, founder of both BC and World Rivers Day and Chair Emeritus of the Rivers Institute at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in the release.

One has to tip their hat to B.C. for taking a lead in raising awareness about an issue that is of greater significance around the world than we may recognize when looking locally.

Yet, here in Canada we cannot lose sight of the importance of water. It might seem the tap in the kitchen will always bring fresh, clean water, but The Walkerton E. coli outbreak in Ontario in 2000, and the situation in North Battleford in 2001 when thousands fell ill after a parasite seeped into drinking water, well illustrates that may not always be the case.

Efforts to conserve our rivers is just one step in preserving our vital water supply around the world.

Healthy harvest A major fundraiser for The Health Foundation in recent years has been ‘Farming For Health’ where crop is planted and harvested, much of the work provided by volunteers, with the crop then sold and the profits being used to

fund Foundation initiatives. Friday the combines were out harvesting canola on land just south of the city provided by the City of Yorkton for the annual initiative.

Quick harvest progress being made Producers continued to make quick progress in their harvest operations this week.

Seventy-four per cent of the crop has been combined, up from 56 per cent last week and well ahead of the five-year (2016-2020) average of 50 per cent for this time of year.

An additional 17 per cent of the crop is swathed or ready to straight-cut. Warm and dry weather is desired to continue drying down crops and allow harvest to continue without delay.

East-Central Saskatchewan: · Crop District 5 – Melville, Yorkton, Cupar, Kamsack, Foam Lake, Preeceville and Kelvington areas · Crop District 6A – Lumsden, Craik, Watrous and Clavet areas A week without scattered rain showers in the region has allowed for good harvest progress to be made in the region.

Sixty-three per cent of the crop has been combined, up from 38 per cent last week and ahead of the five-year (2016-2020) average for this time of year of 40 per cent. An additional 26 per cent of the crop is swathed or ready to straight-cut.

Recent cool, damp temperatures from the previous week is causing

some of the crop to come off tough and needing to be placed into aeration bins or dried.

Minimal rainfall was received in much of the east-central region. The highest amount of rain received this past week was six mm in the Foam Lake area. The Elfros area received five mm and the Wynyard, Kuroki and Kelvington areas received one mm.

Warm, dry conditions are desired to aid with harvest progress, but many are hoping for high amounts of precipitation after harvest to replenish topsoil and subsoil moisture. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 49 per cent adequate, 34 per cent short and 17 per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as 38 per cent adequate, 40 per cent short and 22 per cent very short.

Durum grades in the region are currently being estimated as 25 per cent 1 CW, 40 per cent 2 CW, 14 per cent 3 CW and 21 per cent 4 and 5 CW. Pea grades are estimated as 48 per cent 1 CAN, 46 per cent 2 CAN and six per cent 3 CAN. Lentil grades are estimated to be 35 per cent 1 CAN, 53 per cent 2 CAN and 12 per cent 3 CAN. The majority of crop damage past week was due to wind and drought.

Wind has caused swaths to blow around and for crops to shell out. There was one report of a light ground frost; due to the progress of harvest and how mature crops are in the region it is unlikely this frost caused very much damage at all.

Producers are busy combining, swathing, baling and hauling bales.

Provincially, harvest is most advanced in the southwest region, where 85 per cent of the crop is in the bin. The southeast has 81 per cent combined, the west-central 79 per cent, the east-central 63 per cent, the northeast 69 per cent and the northwest 57 per cent.

Ninety-nine per cent of lentils, 98 per cent of field peas, 86 per cent of mustard, 82 per cent of barley, 89 per cent of durum, 83 per cent of spring wheat, 54 per cent of canola and 25 per cent of flax has now been combined. An additional 34 per cent of canola

is swathed or ready to straight-cut.

Durum grades are being estimated as 27 per cent 1 CW, 34 per cent 2 CW, 28 per cent 3 CW and eleven per cent 4 and 5 CW. Pea grades are estimated as 25 per cent 1 CAN, 62 per cent 2 CAN, 12 per cent 3 CAN and one per cent Sample grade. Lentil grades are estimated to be 20 per cent 1 CAN, 62 per cent 2 CAN, 15 per cent 3 CAN and three per cent Sample grade.

Most of the province received very little to no rainfall this week. The Shaunavon and Gull Lake areas received the highest amount of rain with 15 mm. Topsoil moisture conditions in the province continue to deteriorate due to strong winds and minimal rainfall. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 36 per cent adequate, 38 per cent short and 26 per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil

moisture is rated as 21 per cent adequate, 44 per cent short and 35 per cent very short.

The majority of crop damage this week was due to hail, wind and dry conditions. Frost was recorded in one RM in the northwest region; damage will vary depending on the temperature and duration of the frost as well as the stage of the crop. At this point in the season, the damage will likely be minimal as most crops are matured enough to withstand a minimal frost. Wind has continued to blow swaths and shell out crops. There were also reports of damage caused by wildlife and waterfowl.

Producers are busy combining, swathing, hauling bales and moving cattle. Post-harvest activities are well underway where harvest has finished up and producers hope the weather holds out so that fall herbicide and fertilizer applications can be carried out without issue.

With harvest underway in Saskatchewan, we want to remind producers to exercise caution and remain safe.

As of September 1, the AgriRecovery program, now referred to as the 2021 CanadaSaskatchewan Drought Response Initiative,

is accepting producer applications. The initiative will consist of two payments totaling up to $200/head for cattle, with adjustments based on animal unit equivalents for other livestock.

The initial payment will provide producers with $100 per breeding female equivalent in inventory as of August 1, 2021.

Secondary payments of up to $100 per breeding female in inventory as of December 31, 2021, will be made to producers who have incurred additional costs to retain the animals. Producers with questions can call the initiative’s dedicated toll-free number at 1-844723-1211 or directly by email.

We would like to also remind producers that the Farm Stress Line is available for support if you need it. It is a confidential service, available 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week, toll-free at 1-800-667-4442. Calls are answered by Mobile Crisis Services Regina, a non-profit, communitybased agency and there is no call display.

Maulers readying for regular season

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer The Yorkton SECON 18U AAA Maulers continue preparation for the upcoming season.

Readying for the year the Maulers have added a new assistant coach; Morgan Salkeld, to help head coach and general manager Ed Zawatsky.

Former Mauler Zach Rakochy will join the Maulers as Goalie Development Coach.

Rakochy is also a Steinbach Pistons

alumni where he played a big role in their 2013 Manitoba Junior Hockey League Championship season and a graduate of University of Manitoba with a diploma in AgBusiness.

Yorkton Minor Hockey and Yorkton Terriers Junior Hockey Club Alumni Dylan Johnson will be joining the team this season as Skills Coach.

Johnson is a recent graduate of Minot State University with a Bachelor of Science where he played in the ACHA - American Collegiate Hockey Association with the Minot State Men’s Hockey.

Maulers Alumni Tayler Thompson will also be joining the Maulers as a Skills Coach. After playing for the Maulers from 2008 - 2010, Thompson moved on to play in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League with the local Terriers, Western Hockey League, Canadian college, East Coast Hockey League and, and European pro leagues.

The Maulers have also announced Brad Senko (BKin, CEP, CSEP HighPerformance Specialization) of Functional Rehabil-itation is joining the organization as strength and conditioning coach.

The team has also created a new position; Hockey Operations Liaison and Assistant to the general manager and filled it with Jesse Lippai.

Jannalee Edgar returns to the team as Athletic Therapist. She has been part of the Maulers organization for nearly six years and is also the owner of Jannalee Edgar Physiotherapy.

The team is also into its preseason schedule topping Moose Jaw 5-4 in their first test Sept. 14.

The Maulers then dropped a 4-3 decision to the Saskatoon Contacts at the Westland Arena Friday.

‘Rider star headed to Plaza of Honour One of Saskatchewan’s own is heading to the Roughrider’s Plaza of Honour.

Regina-born receiver Chris Getzlaf has been announced as one of the players to be added in a ceremony Oct, 9, alongside teammate Andy Fantuz. Also being added to the plaza is the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ first black star, Gabe Patterson, who will be inducted posthumously and for his tireless commitment to the Roughriders, Paul J. Hill, who spent more than 22 years on the Club’s Board and Management Council, will be inducted as a Builder.

Getzlaf said the Plaza was always a shrine he was keenly aware going into the stadium it was where the best of the Roughriders were honoured.

“You hoped one day ...,” he said. “It’s surreal.”

In Getzlaf the Roughriders honour a player who seems very much as though

he was always with the franchise, but that isn’t exactly the case.

Twenty-eight of Getzlaf’s 147 career games were played wearing other jerseys.

He was drafted in the fifth round of the 2007 CFL Draft, 33rd overall, by the Hamilton TigerCats, but played in only two games before being traded that season to Saskatchewan.

Then in February 2016, Getzlaf signed with Edmonton playing 26 games before being released in September 2017.

Fittingly, in October 2017, Getzlaf was added to the Roughriders practice roster. He was promoted to the active roster in November 12.

Getzlaf retired in January 2018.

Having been born in Regina, playing his Junior football there, it seemed only fitting he retired a ‘Rider. Having played most of his career at home is something Getzlaf recognizes as special.

CALVIN DANIELS

Sports “That’s something I’m really blessed to have had the opportunity to do,” he said, adding it’s made more special because “the city and the province are so passionate about football.”

Along the way he caught 414 regular season passes for 6,192 yards, for an average of 15 yards a catch, scoring 41 touchdowns. He also played in 13 playoff games catching 28 passes and scoring three TDs. Getzlaf was named the Most Valuable Canadian player in the 101st Grey Cup played in Regina.

Getzlaf said he recognized every game as

being special.

“I can say I had goosebumps every single game running out onto the field,” he said. “You prepare that whole week for that specific game. I was excited to come out of the tunnel.”

Interestingly, Getzlaf almost chose a different path in terms of sport.

“I can say as a young kid hockey was kind of more of a focus,” he said, adding that he and brother Ryan, a long time Anaheim Duck in the National Hockey League actually played a range of sports as kids, So Chris was on skates at age seven who noted “I was really good at hockey when I was

younger”, but didn’t pick-up a football for organized play until age 13.

Getzlaf said he sort of peaked in hockey and in high school football finally won out.

“Going into Grade 12, I made a decision to focus on football, not really because I was better at it, but I was enjoying it more.”

So what made it more enjoyable?

“Everything,” enthused Getzlaf, adding there “lots of life lessons come along with any team sport,” but with football the work of a week of practise culminating in the adrenaline and excitement of the game caught him. “. . . The catches, the touchdowns, the tackles,” he added.

The desire to make it a career was still a year or two away.

“My third year of Junior football I really made a goal to play football professionally,” said Getzlaf.

So as he readies for the induction, what

game or moment does he think of most often?

Getzlaf said while there were many, one always comes to mind first. It was a game in Calgary in 2009, his first full season with the Roughriders, and his first start in the opening 12. Fantuz was hurt “and I got to step into his role,” he recalled.

With about 90-seconds on the clock Getzlaf takes a pass and scores a 60–yard TD “and we win by one,” he said.

From that point on Getzlaf said he got “more and more playing time” and he was on the path that ends at the Plaza of Honour next month.

“I was lucky to come to a team with a group of young receivers that loved the game and wanted to get better each and every day,” said Getzlaf including the likes of Fantuz, Weston Dressler, and Rob Bagg.

“It was amazing to be able to learn together.”

SK flavour to pair of books from Snook

By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer If you like books with a quirky sense of humour woven into a world not quite our own yet still familiar, then the Remy Delemme series from Canadian author Andrew Snook might be just right for you.

“They’re designed to be light, fun reads,” Snook told Yorkton This Week.

To start with, the books take place a number of years into the future in a fictional version of Canada and the U.S. called Glamerica, which has become one country.

Remy’s Dilemma (Book I) takes place in Quebec and Ontario, while the follow-up Remy’s Dilemma: Special Delivery takes place across Western Canada.

And Snook explained Book III is in the process of being written and will take place across Atlantic Canada.

Snook said it is important he writes about locales he knows.

“One thing a little different about the Remy series is that I only write Remy into places that I have been myself,” he said. “I think it’s a fun way to add little nuggets of truth into the ridiculous story.

He added it is something he can draw on from part of his background as a writer for a couple of business-tobusiness publications.

“My work as a B2B editor has taken me across the country to every province multiple times and into many small towns and areas that most Canadians never get to see,” said Snook.

I n t e r e s t i n g l y, Saskatchewan ends up playing a sort of central role in terms of the future Snook envisions.

“I placed the capital of Glamerica in Saskatchewan because I thought it would be a fun surprise for readers, something different,” he said, adding “the book has brief stops in Prince Albert, Meadow Lake and Saskatoon, and Remy befriends a silly character who calls the province home on his journey.

“I’ve been to several areas of the province for work, including Regina, Saskatoon, Prince Albert, Meadow Lake, Big River, Carrot River and Lloydminster (also briefly mentioned in the book).”

The second book was ultimately a bit of a gypsy creation.

“I also wrote all of Book II on the road while travelling for work over a 3.5-year period, in more than 60 towns and cities, including four in Saskatchewan (Saskatoon, Carrot River, Meadow Lake and Prince Albert),” said Snook.

The full list of towns and cities visited is published in the back of Book II. So what about the quirkiness?

Well in ‘Remy’s Dilemma’ the world is coming to an end. That’s what Remy Delemme believes, anyways. While double-checking his life-

long to-do list to ensure he has led a rich life, he realizes he hasn’t come close to completing his goals, relates a synopsis provided by Snook.

Panicked and short on time, Remy embarks on a chaotic road trip to complete the most important item on his bucket list – finding the answer to man’s greatest question.

There’s just one problem.

Then there’s Detective Tobias Gray, the most respected criminal profiler in the Toronto Police Department, thinks Remy is a serial killer; and he’s not the only one who has come to that conclusion. Armed with a green crayon, smiley-faced stamp and a pack of cigarettes in a race against time, the story’s main character, Remy, carves a path of hilarious destruction, baffling and infuriating the police, his government and every other person he encounters.”

And, the weirdness continues in book two.

In ‘Remy’s Dilemma: Special Delivery’ Remy finds himself detained in Prince Albert, arrested for crimes against the Glamerican government.

To earn his freedom and avoid incarceration, a confused yet cooperative Remy is forced to work as

a shadow agent for the government, explained Snook’s synopsis. Unfortunately for them, Remy isn’t the criminal genius they pegged him for (nor is he even a regular kind of genius), and he inadvertently sets off a series of events that could spell doom for the entire world. Meanwhile, Toronto police detective Tobias Gray attempts to track him down and rescue Rose Maheen, the love of Remy’s life who has mysteriously gone missing. Along with a cast of wickedly funny characters, includ-

ing a grizzly moose addicted to maple beans and a retired curler turned philosophical hobo, the bumbling but ever-endearing Remy sets off across Western Canada on the adventure of his life, encountering exploding museums, train derailments and chaos galore everywhere he goes.”

It’s all rather ‘overthe-top’ silliness and that was what Snook really set out to write, or at least it evolved that way.

“The idea for the first book started with a strange dream I had while living in Wolfville

attending Acadia University,” said Snook.

“I thought it was really interesting, so I decided to sit down with my computer and start typing. I wrote for about 12 hours. Over the next nine months I put together my first novella called Wasted Days (2003-04).

Many years later, I gutted the novella and re-wrote it into Remy’s Dilemma.”

And somewhere in the process the idea for additional books came to light.

“No. I didn’t really have a plan when I first started writing,” said Snook. “As I put the first book together, I really like the idea of having three separate books with Remy causing chaos in different regions of Canada.”

But why did he think the book(s) worth writing?

“I love fiction writing, so I would be writing whether people read my books or not,” offered Snook. “That said, I’ve received some amazing compliments over the years from fans of the books.

“One person mentioned it was a go-to book for them to make them feel better when they have really hard days, because it makes them feel lighter. Giving people something light and silly to break away from reality for a little while is one of the things I like most about putting my books in people’s hands.

“Another person said that their teenaged son loved my first book and that it was the first fiction book they read from start to finish and that he couldn’t wait to read the next one. Having someone thank you for sparking their child’s love of reading is just about the best compliment I could ask for.”

Of course there were challenges, even for a writer with an extensive background including most recently branching out on his own to start up Snookbooks Publishing, his own content creation company where he works with companies, associations, publishers and independent writers to help them tell their stories through his writing and editing services.

“Writing while juggling work, raising children and making time for my wife and I can definitely be a challenge,” said Snook. “To complete Book I, I did most of my writing in the early mor-

nings when everyone was asleep -- we had one child then.

“For Book II, I wrote it entirely while on the road because I wanted to make sure I dedicated my time at home to my family.”

In his writing, Snook takes a somewhat unique approach.

“As for the flow, I prefer to write the Remy books one character at a time, starting with Remy,” he said. “I write Remy causing all his chaos then write all the other characters around him. I find this flow works better for me then trying to write chapter to chapter, which I’ve also done.”

While humour can be difficult to get just right in writing, that part came more easily for Snook.

“Fortunately, the humour comes naturally to me. It’s just my dorkiness being scribbled onto paper,” he said.

So what does Snook think is the best aspect of the books?

That’s “hard to say,” he noted. “I love writing all of Remy’s ridiculous antics and popping in little nuggets of Canadiana wherever I can.”

And, in the end he’s generally happy with what he has created.

“I’m pretty satisfied with my books,” said Snook. “I feel like I’ve learned a lot from my novella writing days in 2004 and 2006, which were very rough, to Book I of the Remy series and then to Book II of the Remy series, and into Book III and the other writing projects I’m currently working on (a choose-your-own adventure, dice-rolling battle book called Dungeon Jest coming out this fall and my first children’s book, which will come out before Christmas).

Remy’s Dilemma and Remy’s Dilemma: Special Delivery are available on a wide variety of channels. The printed version and eBooks can be ordered off of Friesen Press, Amazon Kindle, Chapters Indigo, Kobo, iBooks and Google Play.

Read, pray, sing, laugh and keep going It happened fast. But not fast enough that I missed the comically horrified expression on the young salesman’s face. His startled eyes met mine, then he ducked down the aisle and around the corner.

That’s when my friend’s voice stabbed my ears.

“Kathleen!” We’d been best friends for decades, but never had Glenda addressed me in that tone. Her long legs strode toward me from the other end of the aisle in the small store where we’d both found a few wardrobe items we liked.

“Your turn, Glenda,” I’d called, as I exited the tiny dressing room, pleased with the soft grey outfit draped over

my arm.

Nearing me, she picked up speed. She intends to attack me, I thought, shocked.

Grabbing my shoulders, she whirled me around and began fiddling with the back of my floaty summer dress. Laughing as she did so.

I thought she’d collapse, she laughed so hard. “Your dress,” she gasped. “It’s…..” She tugged at something.

“How on earth did you get it stuck like…..oh, dear…” There went another paroxysm.

Then she managed the announcement that did me in too. “The bottom of your dress is stuck in your….oh, my…. in your BRA STRAP!”

Sunny Side Up Suddenly I understood the look on that young clerk’s face. I’d just handed him a story he’ll laugh at and tell for a half-century to come. At least. I know this, because as a teenager I spotted a stranger in a similar position walking a half-block in front of me in downtown Vancouver. The hem of her mini-skirt

had gotten trapped in the top of her panty hose. There she went, bibbity bobbing along.

I’m still laughing, fifty years down the road.

Regrettably, I was too shy to catch up and tell her. Doubtless, other people, too, are still smiling at that memory.

Truly, in our moments of embarrassment, nothing either

that young woman or I exposed was more than what a swimsuit would. Nevertheless, people expect swimsuitted bodies on beaches, not in stores or on city streets. God bless Glenda for stopping my forward march to the cash register— from which that young man (by the time we’d stopped guffawing and gotten there) had conveniently absented himself. His colleague, who clearly knew the scoop, took our money, trying hard to hide his grin.

Jeanne Robertson, Christian comedienne, motivational speaker, and a former Miss Carolina, would have loved that story.

Jeanne died recently, far too soon, after a career spent inspiring people and laughing at life, often at her own and her patient husband’s (who she called LeftBrain) expense.

I never met her, but she’s one of my heroes.

I miss just knowing she shares the world with me. Thankfully, many of her shows remain on YouTube.

If negative news swirls around you this week, destroying your peace and cluttering up your spirit, I believe this would be Jeanne’s prescription: Read scripture, pray some, sing some, laugh a lot and keep going. God has this, and he has you, too. Don’t forget.

September means prep time for winter September is a busy month in the garden. It doesn’t seem like there should be so much to do, with the plants of summer reaching the end of their growing season, but there is. Now we gardeners focus our attention on getting our plants and our gardens ready for winter.

One thing we should be doing is clearing out any annuals, either flowers or vegetables, that are done growing.

If they are still producing, and many things have perked up considerably since our recent rains, then let them be. But if they are already starting to fade, pick the last of their produce and pull the plants. There is no need to wait until the cold winds of late fall start blowing to start cleaning our yards.

This is a fine time to divide perennials, or move them around to a new spot in our gardens. They still have time to settle in before winter arrives.

How do we know if we should divide perennials? Several clues: if they had sparse or poor blooms; if the centre of the plant seems to be thinning; if the plants has simply become too large and messy for the space. This last option can be one that gives us our exercise for the day! Imagine that we have a large clump of daylilies to divide. Use a spade to dig them out, then take two digging forks and put them back to back, as close together as possible, in the middle of the clump. After sinking the forks into the soil, you can pull the handles apart and the

DEBBIE HAYWARD YORKTON AND DISTRICT HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY

Gardener’s Notebook teeth will separate and split the clump.

Sometime this takes several attempts if the clump is very thick or the soil is very hard.

But it is a very good method, much easier than trying to sink a spade into the whole thing.

We can also start to think about where we will add some new bulbs for spring. It’s nice to have flowering bulbs in the garden, a burst of spring color after a long winter!

Add some every year

to enhance your spring plantings. Whatever bulbs you choose, be sure to read the planting instructions as to the depth of the bulbs, and follow them as closely as you can. And please, no planting in straight rows! Bulbs look more natural and beautiful if they are planted in clumps or drifts, and the colors show up better that way, too.

Once we get our first frost, it will be time to dig up dahlia tubers.

After the frost, when

the leaves begin to die, snip back the growth to about six inches, then leave them in the ground for another ten days or so. At that time, dig them up gently and shake off the excess soil. If there are nice big tubers, this would be an ideal time to divide them. But if not, put them in a mesh or paper bag and store them in a cool dark place with good air circulation. If you are interested to save gladiolas, they also need to be tended to after their foliage has died back. They must also be stored in a dry cool spot.

To cut back perennials or not? Everyone has their own preference about this, but we like to leave perennials that have seed heads because they provide a winter treat

for the birds and winter beauty in the garden. We do cut back irises and daylilies, but again, they could wait till spring if you prefer. And we are always careful to leave some fallen leaves between shrubs or along the back of the flowerbeds to provide a wintering spot for beneficial bugs.

It’s a busy but beautiful time in the garden!

ARNOLD - Murray Arnold, beloved husband of Darlene of the Yorkton district, passed away on Sunday, September 12 2021 at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre.

He was 64 years of age. William Murray Arnold was born on August 9, 1957 to George and Loraine Arnold in Imperial, SK. Murray, the youngest of the family, was one of six siblings, including: Lynne, Barry, Wendy, Bryce, and Tanya.

They lived on the Emil Arnold (Murray’s grandfather’s) family farm in Stalwart, SK. They each played musical instruments and loved to sing so their house was always filled with music. The family moved to Yorkton where Murray attended Dr. Brass Junior High School and the Yorkton Regional High School. He played in the school band, was a member of the Troubadours, and participated in school musicals. Murray started working at an early age, delivering groceries for Propp’s Groceteria, later managed A&W and also worked for Bill the Builder. He began working at Sasktel in 1979. Darlene and Murray went on their first date to a Yorkton Terriers game on Remembrance Day. They were married on May 19, 1984, and by June 1st, moved out to the acreage where they lived their entire married lives. Murray began working at GX94 as a salesman in February, 1989. They welcomed Kiley in 1986, Cassie in 1988, Kristen in 1990, and their family was complete with the arrival of Kelsee on May 19, 1992 - also their 8th wedding anniversary. Murray was hard-working and community minded.

He was very involved in the Yorkton Exhibition Association, the Legion, and could often be found behind the griddle at a GX pancake breakfast.

As a testament to his hardworking nature, for several years, he looked after cattle and also grain farmed, all while working for GX and being involved in the community. Murray’s GX territory included many small towns in the SK and MB area. He was widely known and well respected as a man of integrity and for his friendship. After 23 years at GX, Murray decided to try his hand at real estate. He started at Royal Le Page, then Century 21 and finally joined the Hammond Realty team and throughout specialized in farm real estate. Murray was a farmer at heart. He could often be found checking crops and farming his quarter of land right up until the fall of 2020. He was known for his advice, sense of humour, and knew many people near and far. He loved people, but he also loved his quiet time on the farm. He was a loving father and remarked that if his girls (meaning his daughters and Dar) were good, he was good. But he also loved the boys who the girls brought into the family and had a special relationship with each son-in-law. He was so proud to be a grandfather and loved his grandchildren dearly. Murray is predeceased by his father, George, and sister, Wendy. He is survived by his wife, Darlene; children: Kiley (David), Cassie (Ryan), Kristen (Cody), Kelsee (Travis); and his grandchildren: Dane & Cale, Mason & Nixon, and Oliver; his mother, Loraine; siblings: Lynne (Marvin), Barry (Judy), Wendy’s husband, Tom, Bryce (Della), Tanya (Fred) and many nephews, nieces, and their children. The funeral service was held on Friday, September 17th 2021 from the Yorkton Memorial Gardens Family Centre with Doreen Day, Certified Celebrant officiating. Family members participated in the service, gave tributes, provided music and prepared a slideshow in memory of Murray.

The interment will follow at a later date. Memorials in Murray’s name may be made to the Yorkton Exhibition Association, or to the Health Foundation for Palliative Care. Condolences can be left at baileysfuneralhome.com

DOWIE - John died on June 3, 2021 in Edmonton AB. This was less than 4 months after he lost his beloved Marianne - John’s wife of 70 years. John was born in Leader, SK to Joseph and Cecilia Dowie. Growing up on a small farm, he learned to work hard through the 1930s and 1940s. He followed his parents to Regina and soon met Marianne Johnson. John and Marianne wed on August 19, 1950 and had two daughters, Sandra and Karen. John always had an energetic spark in his eyes. He looked to the horizon, set goals and found innovative ways to improve the quality of the lives and his family and his community. John’s first professional job was as a salesman and repair technician for National Cash Register (NCR). This experience was the foundation for John an Marianne opening Dowie’s Stationery Ltd. In Yorkton, SK in 1959. Their long hours of work paid off and the business grew steadily for almost 40 yrs. John contributed to Yorkton in many roles including: City Councillor, President of the Chamber of Commerce, and active Mason. As a dedicated Shriner, John could be found driving a tri-wheeler in many parades each summer. John and Marianne worked and played hard. In themed 1960’s, they built a cabin by hand at Madge Lake.

John and Marianne were intrepid travelers who lived to roam through Canada and the U.S. in their R.V. They also explored exotic locations during their annual international trips. Eventually, John and Marianne retired to Vancouver Island where they thrived for almost 20 years. John’s happiest moments in his final months were to look at pictures showing the many contented years he enjoyed with Marianne. John often reflected on how fortunate he was to marry such a warm, beautiful, and generous person. Also, he appreciated his long life and the many wonderful times he had with is family and friends. John is survived by his daughters Sandra and Karen (Doug) Yaholnitsky; grandchildren Teal (Dustin) Rasmussen and Terra (Adam) Rasmussen; and great-grandchildren Freya and Raiden.

Sacred Heart hosts boys’ volleyball tourney Sacred Heart High School hosted its annual senior boys’ volleyball tournament Sept. 18.

The tournament consisted of five teams from across the east central district: Sacred Heart, Yorkton Regional, Langenburg, Melville and Sturgis.

The volleyball tournament was a round robin format.

After the round robin matches the top four teams advanced to the playoffs.

Sturgis and Langenburg played in the bronze match.

Sturgis took the bronze in a close match winning 25-17, 21-25 and 15-7.

In the gold match it was the YRHS vs. Melville.

The Yorkton Regional easily took the gold winning in two straight sets 25-10 and 25-11.

“This was Sacred Heart’s first tournament of the season and it was nice to finally be back on the court” said coach Curtis Moen.

“The team struggled with

their first couple matches only having seven players and getting court positioning figured out.

“The young team made huge improvements throughout the tournament.

“Our last round robin match was our strongest having a close match against YRHS. “Dylan Prince did a great job taking on the setter position for the team.

“Braeden Zerff and Brayden Klingspon laid down some big hits at the net.

“Ostap Kucherha lead the team in blocks while Rhencent Manalo did a great job passing and serving for the team.”

The team would like to thank our team sponsors this year for all their support: Ram Industries, Leon’s Manufacturing, Smith Steel, Premier Cabinets, and Parkland College.

Next game action for the Saints is Sept. 25, as the team travels to Langenburg.

The Sacred Heart Volleyball team is young but getting better with each game.
