Festival of Cultures brings people together
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Festival of Cultures is an event built to bring people together. With the universal appeal of food, entertainment and beer, the annual event is working to build understanding and help people meet their neighbours. Eleven cultures were represented at the event, including
Canada, First Nations, Philippines, Thailand, India, Mexico, Serbia, Jamaica, United Kingdom and Ukraine. Raquel Salalila, Festival of Cultures Coordinator, says that part of the goal is to show off the talents of people from Yorkton and area. “It’s diverse now, and I think Yorkton is more on with multiculturalism now... It’s an inter-
esting adventure for people who want to try food items, delicacies, and see their craft items.” A new event is International Beer Night, which brings together beer from around the world. Salalila says that it’s an event that comes from other cultural events. She says that while the afternoon event is about travel-
ling the world through visiting different booths, the beer night is a way to travel the world through beer. Salalila believes that the festival is a good way to help people meet and better understand their neighbours and the cultural background where they come from. She was happy to see crowds come to the events because it meant peo-

ple are more aware of what is happening in the communities. “People are enjoying it, but at the same time they’re aware of the existing cultural groups as well of the newcomers.” The plan for 2016 is to get bigger, Salalila says, with more cultures represented at the festival. They also want to see the Immigrant of
Distinction awards brought into the event, combined with the International Beer Night.

Film Festival remembers the first World War Remembrance Day is about remembering the people who have served the nation. The Yorkton Film Festival’s Open Cinema program hosted a screening of Front Lines and a presentation by Bill Waiser on Canada’s contribution to the first World War. The screening of the film, which compiles actual letters written by Canadian soldiers in World War I, comes on the 100th anniversary of John McRae’s poem In Flanders Fields, the 100th anniversary of the second Battle of Ypres when Canada first saw action. Waiser spoke of the impact of the war in Saskatchewan and Canada as a whole, what Saskatchewan contributed to the war effort as well as how the country was perceived during and after the conflict. “Canadians in 1914 didn’t expect to play a significant role in the war. It was supposed to be a quick, decisive war that was over by Christmas. Instead, it degenerated into a long, bloody stalemate and Canada ended up playing a major fighting role.” He says that the
main goals of the presentation is to remember the men and women who fought in the first World War. As many people are relatively unfamiliar with what happened in the first World War, it’s important to remember what happened and the people who fought and died in the conflict. “I’m not here to celebrate the war in any way, I’m here to commemorate Canada’s participation in that
war, and the men and women who were involved in that war, and not to forget them.” Waiser’s contribution to remembering people goes beyond the presentations, as he is part of the University of Saskatchewan’s Great War Commemoration Committee, which has also put together resources surrounding the first World War pulled from the Archives and Special Collections at
http://greatwar.usask. ca/. From the Yorkton Film Festival’s perspective, this is part of a larger program for the Yorkton Film Festival, which is using its film archives to educate people about the World Wars. Randy Goulden, Executive Director of the Yorkton Film Festival, says it’s part of a grant the festival received from Heritage Canada, with the films being accom-
panied by presentation, with screenings in Calgary, Saskatoon and Winnipeg, as well as local high schools. “We’re getting interest from groups who want us to come out, usually we have to ask the groups, now they’re coming to us.” She says that with the large amount of films that have been accumulated by the festival over the years means they can change
the content for the audience. For instance, in presenting to a younger audience, the film used is an animated one. Goulden also says that the Yorkton Public Library’s support of the Open Cinema program makes it possible to continue to screen films on different subjects. “It’s because of organizations like the library that we can continue to this.”

It’s the beginning of the Christmas season, and it’s time to break out the tree to celebrate. The Festival of Trees is back, raising money for a good cause and giving people the opportunity to buy a decorated tree at the event, which takes place November 20. Sonya Reviczky, event organizer, says that they wanted to revive the Festival of Trees event because they wanted to make an event that could take off and grow into the future. The trees themselves have been decorated with different themes. She promises that the eleven trees on display will be an impressive display. “You have to be able to see them to appreciate what they look like.” Everything is donated, with businesses across the community either donating a decorated tree or sponsoring the decoration of a tree. The Painted Hand Casino, hosts for the event, also donated the space and meal for the event. All eleven trees will be auctioned off over the evening. All money raised goes to a good cause, YAIL Harbor ’s Pathway

Do we need two school systems? To put the current dispute between Good Spirit and Christ the Teacher school divisions in perspective, it is instructive to recall some history of public and separate education in Canada. The principle of public support of denominational schools goes all the way back to The British North America Act of 1867 (The Constitution). It was enshrined to protect minority religion rights during the confederation of Upper and Lower Canada because Protestants (mainly Anglicans) dominated Upper Canada while French Catholics were the overwhelming majority in Lower Canada. In the early days of public education in Canada, there was no separation of church and state. Indeed, it was assumed every student was a Christian, either Protestant or Catholic, and adherents of the minority religion in a given area had the right to establish separate schools that would receive public funding. The Act was written so the educational funding regime of a given jurisdiction at the time the jurisdiction entered confederation would be maintained and constitutionally protected. Consequently, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Newfoundland and Labrador, are the only provinces that have or did have separate religious-based publicly-funded education systems. Quebec and Newfoundland have since changed theirs by Constitutional amendment. Over time, core public systems have evolved into much more secular enterprises. Still, up until very recently, those systems were still denominational. Older Catholics will recall calling their rival public school the “Protestant school.” Older public school graduates will recall when the school day still started with “The Lord’s Prayer.” Catholic schools have admitted non-Catholic students for a long time on the basis parents accept the fact their children will be exposed to a Catholic, religious-based education and will be required to participate in certain religious activities such as take Christian ethics classes in high school. That is one of the main reasons why non-Catholic parents might want to send their children to Catholic schools. Some parents want their children to have a religious-based education, even if it is not their particular brand of religion. And then there is location, the source of the decadelong litigation between the public and separate systems over the school in Theodore. In 2003, the public division, then called York School Division, decided Theodore Public School was simply no longer viable and decided to close it. One can hardly blame parents and the Town itself for not wanting to lose their school. Who wants to have to bus their children to another town? They came up with a very clever solution. They created a separate school division and Theodore Public School became St. Theodore’s Catholic School with the blessing, so to speak, of the provincial government. The problem, from the public board’s point of view, was that most of the kids who enrolled in the new “Catholic” school were not Catholic and, perhaps more importantly, those kids represented dollars that would no longer find their way into public school coffers. As long as the parents don’t have a problem with the religion-based education and since the Province is going to provide funding for the student one way or the other, what is the problem? In fact, what religious education means from a practical point of view is questionable. Separate schools are required to follow the same curricula as public schools and are responsible for the same educational outcomes. Furthermore, the Catholic Church has long accepted scientific facts taught in the provincial curriculum that other religious groups find controversial, such as evolution and even the Big Bang. “The Big Bang, which is today posited as the origin of the world, does not contradict the divine act of creation, rather, it requires it,” stated Pope Francis, adding, “evolution of nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation because evolution pre-supposes the creation of beings which evolve.” So, essentially, education in Saskatchewan has evolved into two parallel public systems, one that actively promotes a specific Christian religion and another that does not and both of which are responsible for the same educational outcomes. Public education is an increasingly expensive business. At the very least, it is worth asking the question whether maintaining two public systems makes sense. The case being heard at Court of Queen’s Bench in Yorkton right now may have some implications in that regard. In Saskatchewan, minority religion education rights (which in this context means only Catholic) are still protected by the Constitution, but Saskatchewan has changed dramatically. The conversation about what it means to protect minority religion education rights in 21st century has barely just begun.
How can we react to Paris? If there is one thing that is clear from the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in Paris on Friday, it is that we do not know how to react. We see the amount of bloodshed and believe something, anything must be done about it, but we have no idea what we can do. It’s a horrible event which needs a response, but no response seems adequate or makes much sense at all, possibly because the attack itself is so incomprehensible. The immediate response has been a call to arms, as people want to see those responsible punished. That means military action against ISIS, which has already claimed responsibility for the attacks. This seems to make sense, because it is a violent response to a violent act, and we need to do something. If we can punish those responsible then perhaps in some way we have managed to solve the problem, or at least dealt with part of the problem. The problem is that a military response has proven inadequate for actually dealing with the problem, something we know from the decades spent in the middle east trying to stamp out different terrorist groups with bombing and combat. ISIS was not there a decade ago, but it’s still in the same area and fed by the same group of people that powered other, older terrorist organizations. Some of those have since been destroyed, in name, but what they have been doing has not been stopped. We have what can be described as a monster that feeds on angry, young people who do not believe they have a future and just want to destroy with what life they have left. We can injure it, but we have no indication of how it can be killed. The only way to stop it would be to turn off its food supply, to prevent those angry young people from joining their ranks and destroying themselves in order to further some inscrutable goal. That goal might just be to keep feeding the beast and continuing to get people to destroy themselves. The attacks killed people, creating angry people who have lost those they care about. The response will kill people, leading to the same. There will be countries that scale back the number of refugees they are willing to host, which allows for more recruitment from refugee camps. It leads to more racism against those who are Muslim, and that could create more people who are angry at the world and want to destroy it. It does not achieve any goal apart from the escalation of violence. That’s what it aims to do, and it succeeds, but it otherwise has no end game. There
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger is nothing to achieve apart from destruction, the entire goal is to destroy and nothing else. It is not about religion or any just cause, it’s merely a wish to destroy. There is nothing in the attacks that improves life for members of ISIS, if anything it will make life more difficult for them, as countries will step up their military presence in Syria. But that could be what they want anyway, escalating the combat giving them an opportunity to die for their cause, whatever it happens to be. Increased military against them might even be the goal, more death and destruction in their territory being something which they actually want, in order to use it as a recruitment tool. Our problem is that we have an enemy that we do not understand. In the same situation, we would not want to see more bombing, more conflict or more destruction. But everything about what they’re doing is wrong to us, which makes it difficult to actually achieve anything of meaning in this never ending conflict. Knowing your enemy is the only way to know how to defeat them, and the enemy here is one which is so foreign and remote to our sensibilities that we might be doing what they want. If we have an enemy that does not fear death, what can military action accomplish? After all, they went into this act with the intention of dying. We cannot do nothing, but it’s a case where we have no clear indication of what we can do that will be effective and meaningful. The threat of death means something to us, so we are reacting with what means most to us, but if the people we are acting against don’t have the same fears how can we understand how to deter them? Then how do we react? I do not know, nobody does. It’s not as though we have an opponent with demands or some sort of political goal. That may have been the case a long time ago, but right now we have people who are fighting for the sake of fighting, destroying themselves and others for the sake of destruction. We know we must react, and prevent this from happening again, but we have no idea how to react.

Time for a Canadian energy strategy EDMONTON, AB/ Troy Media/ - “Control your own destiny or someone else will,” Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric, once said. These words came back to me when I learned that U.S. President Barack Obama had rejected TransCanada Corp.’s application to build the Keystone XL pipeline. The pipeline would have carried Alberta bitumen from Hardisty to Nebraska, where it would have linked with existing lines to the Gulf Coast. In stating that Keystone “will not serve the national interests of the United States,” Obama blew apart the underlying logic of Canada’s energy strategy. For years we’ve operated on the assumption that North America was integrating into a common
market. This fit the oil and gas industry well, since it implied that corporate interests rather than national interests were primary. From the corporate perspective, shipping raw bitumen from Alberta to the Gulf Coast makes perfect sense. A decade ago, many of the companies that mined bitumen had underutilized refining capacity and building the XL pipeline to fill this gap was logical. But the truth is that the pipeline proposal didn’t serve Canada well. The economic development opportunities represented by this situation are too important for Canada to lose. It’s time Canadians had a meaningful energy strategy. Canada’s premiers have already started the process
of developing such a strategy. And now that a new federal government is in place, we can have this important discussion at the national level. Two major issues are not being discussed that are critical to our future. We can’t leave industry to sort them out for us. One involves being masters of our own fate. Canadians need to be front and centre as we evolve from being primary producers to a fully developed postindustrial economy. Secondly, we need to appreciate that markets are not impartial arbitrators of price and value. Oil markets, for instance, are manipulated, particularly by big producers and the cartel OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries). Canadians suffer from the resulting market dis-
tortions and we need to take direct action to control our destiny. Alberta Premier Rachel Notley said she was disappointed that Obama described Alberta crude as “dirty.” But we have only ourselves to blame for this perception -- we need to improve our environmental record to achieve our goals. More to the point, Obama’s rejection of Keystone XL was about protecting American interests by any means. Canada must do the same. Our position should be: we’ll manage our environment, thank you very much, and sell our energy products in as many markets as make sense. Canadians expect to have ample access to cost-effective energy and want to see energy sources migrate from fossil fuels to greener,
renewal sources. But we can’t accomplish this transition if we’re at the bottom end of the energy market, restricted to being producers of raw material. So how can Canadian producers overcome being trapped mid-continent? Conventional thinking says we must build pipelines to tidewater so our energy can be sold in global markets, where prices are higher. That explains the push to build expensive and environmentally risky pipelines. A national strategy could take an entirely different course. The federal government could focus on securing Canada’s domestic energy supply and regulating prices, essentially pricing Canadian oil at the global standard, bypassing the
discounted continental pricing established by U.S. producers. Stable prices would provide the financial resources to encourage upgrading and refining in Canada, and to develop our industry in an environmentally responsible way. And ultimately, a national energy strategy could encourage the development of renewable sources of energy, positioning Canada at the leading edge of the green energy revolution.

Your letter of the Week CTF’s travelling debt clock is a side show To the Editor: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation has been traveling the province with a side showstyle debt clock, spreading misleading statements about our Government’s management of Saskatchewan’s finances. Our Government is committed to working to balance the budget, keep debt and taxes low, and carefully manage spending while investing in the priorities of Saskatchewan people. Our
Government has paid down $3 billion in debt over its term and has provided almost $6 billion in overall tax relief. Now is the right time to invest in infrastructure. Our province has triple-A credit ratings (one of three provinces in Canada) and interest rates are historically low. We have undertaken prudent borrowing for capital with a repayment plan. Saskatchewan people have been clear and consistent in their desire for investments needed in highways,
schools, health care facilities and other vital infrastructure - important now and for future generations. Similarly, our Crown corporations borrow, within industry ratios, to build the power, telecommunications and natural gas infrastructure people need in a growing province. Our province’s total debt to GDP ratio is the second lowest in the country among the provinces. Bond rating agencies all speak to our province’s low debt burden
and strong financial management. While we face challenges, with global impacts on resource prices and disasters like forest fires this year and flooding in others, our Government has a strong track record of fiscal management when faced with volatility. We will keep working hard to manage the province’s finances and leave the side shows to others. Kevin Doherty Minister of Finance

Chores for toddlers Doing chores lets children see themselves as important contributors to the family. They feel a connection to the family, and they feel more capable for having completed their tasks. On the other hand, not being taught the skills of everyday living can limit children’s ability to function at ageappropriate levels. For example, your child needs to know how to put on and zip their coat when they go to school. As they learn chores, children contribute to the family, begin to take care of themselves and learn skills they will need as an adult. Here are a few things to keep in mind when giving your toddler chores: • Keep it simple. Start with one chore. • Shower them with praise. • Make chores fun and exciting! Work along beside them, showing them how to do things. Smile, laugh and whistle as you work. • Don’t expect perfection. Some Simple Chores for Toddlers: • Brush teeth- with help from mom or dad of course. • Get dressed – and put dirty clothes in the hamper. • Pick up toys - give a simple task like putting the blocks into the tub, or the books into the basket. • Dust – give your toddler a sock and let him dust all the surfaces in a room.

Finding comet parts is like finding something alien. There are three sources of information one uses in the search: visual sightings, photographs and videos.

On Sunday November 8, at 8:37 p.m., a particularly bright fireball shot across the sky, making its presence known to most of eastern Saskatchewan, western Manitoba and parts of North Dakota. As is my luck, I was at my computer sipping on coffee and finished up my article encouraging readers to keep an eye out for Taurid fireballs. The next morning, I turned on my pc to find out that I should be spending more time following my own advice. Meteorites (meteors that make it to the ground) are plentiful. The next time you brush the grit out of your eaves troughs in the spring, touch the pile with a magnet. The bunch that sticks are probably meteorites. Tons of meteor dust hits the Earth every day. With a brilliant fireball comes the chance that we get rocks rather than dust. If the Sunday fireball was actually part of the Taurid shower, as it appears, and rock-sized pieces made it to the ground, which is possible, it’s scientifically valuable for a number of rea-

Long-time music teacher receives award By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Thelma Gillis’ life has been dedicated to music, teaching students in the area for over 70 years. The Saskatchewan Registered Music Teachers Association recently recognized Gillis’ hard work by awarding her with the 2015 Outstanding Teacher Achievement Award. “I’m deeply honoured, I didn’t expect it at all and I thank the music teachers of Yorkton who nominated me.” Born in Theodore, Sk,
Gillis got her start when her father’s parents bought a piano for the family, and everyone in the house learned to play. Gillis says that the inspiration to teach music comes from her own parents, who actively encouraged her to keep practicing, keep learning and make it her life. “If it wasn’t for them, I probably wouldn’t have pursued it.” Gillis has been a big part of the region’s music programs, teaching in Theodore, Foam Lake and Yorkton over her career. She was a founding member of
the Saskatchewan Registered Music Teachers Association’s Yorkton branch in 1985. “We’ve got a great number of good teachers in Yorkton... They work hard, they do well and they keep it going.” For her part, Gillis says that she keeps teaching music because it’s something she loves to do. “I love it, I love the students, and that’s what keeps me going.” The difference between when Gillis began teaching and today is the amount of activities for children, she
