Yorkton youth learn about small business By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Students at Yorkton Regional High School got a first hand look at the challenges involved in setting up a business. The kids in the Entrepreneurship 30 class Junior Achievement Program each set up a business, selling a product and trying to make a profit, and presented their experience to the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce Business Breakfast. The three businesses were called Custom Cottons, Rustic Elegance and Perennial Times, selling custom T-shirts, barn board home decor and organic beauty products respectively. The businesses sold their products through local trade shows, social media and other sales in the area, and each made a profit larger than the students projected. All three businesses donated 10 per cent of their profits to a local charity. Custom Cottons donated $92 to Paws and Claws Animal Rescue. Rustic Elegance donated $133.61 to the Amputee
Coalition of Canada, in honour of the person who owns the land where the barn used for the project – Joe Stachura – who is an amputee due to a farm accident. Perennial Times donated to the Chad Young family, a local student currently fighting cancer. Daniel Sparrowhawk, president of Perennial Times, says that it was definitely educational for him, as he had not attempted to run a business before and didn’t know what it would entail. His own business, Perennial Times, saw a fair amount of challenge through the process. Sparrowhawk says that the biggest challenge was at the beginning, as the cost of the product and the time it took to produce the product were big obstacles for the group, especially as the students had responsibilities outside of the business itself. Their business in particular also had large initial start up costs, though they were able to come in under budget. There was also some conflict
between group members, but he says that they were able to work through problems and work together in the end. While he says he doesn’t see owning a small business in his future, Sparrowhawk says that the skills learned through the project will help him through the rest of his life. He recommends other students sign up for the Entrepreneurship 30 class for that reason, as he says it’s a valuable experience. “The stuff that it took to own and operate a business I definitely see in my future.� Juanita Polegi, Executive Director of the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce, says the students show that the future of business in Yorkton and area is in good hands. “Those students, not just the ones presenting today but the ones at home who worked with these students, had some really valuable experiences in the Entrepreneurship 30 class in the Junior Achievement program.�
Voices of Courage
The Yorkton Film Festival is proud to announce the continuation of their Voices of Courage: Stories from the World Wars screening program for 2016. The program began in November of 2015, and focuses on telling Canadian stories from both World Wars. This project has been made possible in part by the Government of Canada. “We were very fortunate to receive funding for this program from the Government of Canada to highlight Canada’s involvement in the World Wars,� said Executive Director Randy Goulden. “It’s been a very ambitious project, as we’ve had several screenings throughout Sask-
atchewan, and are proud to be bringing the program to Calgary and Winnipeg. A big part of this program was telling Canadian stories, and highlighting Canadian history during the World Wars, and we’re very grateful to be able to bring these stories to communities across Canada.� “We’ve been fortunate to gain some wonderful partnerships as part of this program, and I want to express my profound thanks to all the organizations, venues and speakers who have helped us make this a very successful program.� Goulden added. Each screening will highlight a film from the Yorkton Film Festival’s catalogue that deals
with Canada’s involvement in the World Wars. After the film screening, presentations will be held to further expand on the topics touched on by the films. Information on the screenings can be found at www.yorktonfilm. com/voices-of-courage.

FAMILY HEALTH – Three brothers have finished off the CT Scan campaign for The Health Foundation, and started with the money needed for a virtual colonoscopy module for the new machine, which will cost $34,000. Pictured (l-r), Randy, Dale and Gord Rhinas, seen here with Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation, each donated $1,000 to the campaign, for a total of $3,000. The colonoscopy module will have the advantage of better images and a less invasive procedure, Fisher says. “We may not need it today or tomorrow, but somewhere down the road in our lifetime we will need the health care system to depend on,� says Randy Rhinas about their choice to contribute to the campaign.

Yorkton Arts Council celebrates 50 years
SONIA PAWLIW is one of the artists in the Past, Present and Future exhibition at the Yorkton Public Library, showing her mosaic work as well as felted birds. She’s just one of over 20 artists on display.
The best way to celebrate the achievements of the Yorkton Arts Council is through art itself, and the new show at the community pARTners gallery in the Yorkton Public Library is a celebration of the 50 year history of the council and the many local artists that it works to support. Past, Present and Future features over 20 local artists showcasing a wide range of work. One of those artists is Sonja Pawliw, who brought a mosaic table and shoes, as well as felted birds. Pawliw says that for her, it’s a drive to create that is behind her work, as well as a desire to make good use of materials she has at hand. The first mosaic she ever did began after she was inspired to improve some furniture. “The first mosaic I ever did, the Christian brother from St. Mary’s, they were redoing their furniture in their rooms and they had a metal stand with a bowl on the top. He brought it to me, and said if you spray paint it, you can put a plant in there. When I saw that, I thought I had a magazine for mosaics. I hunted high and low, I still haven’t found it... I remembered it was breaking dishes... I put some dishes into a towel, took a rubber hammer and I hammered, and I coated that
stand with mosaic. When he came back in two weeks, he couldn’t believe it.” She says the likes to experiment, and says that for her work she needs to have a vision of the end result, because through the process it’s not always clear what the end result is going to be and where she is going. “When you start something, it looks ugly, and messy, and it’s dirty... But once you polish it up, it’s another world, and it really makes you feel good.” She admits that some people might consider her a little bit crazy, especially since it’s often starting with materials that other people might not see as a source for art. “An artist or craftsperson I think is a little crazy in ways, because before you finish one item you are already about of the next thing you can do.” The felted birds also started from an inspiration from old materials she could no longer use. “I had an old quilt, and you don’t want to throw away an old quilt.” She then went to the internet and to find what she could do with the material and made the birds in the process. In terms of the show itself, Pawliw says it’s rewarding to see what people are doing, and that others are driven to create like she is.

FEEDING KIDS – Feeding people is a natural fit for a grocery store, and the Yorkton Co-op is making a major contribution to feeding less fortunate kids in the city. The Co-op raised $14,833.18 for the Soup Haven through the Good Buy to Hunger campaign, which saw customers buy items that can be used for Soup Haven lunches. The Co-op matched donations up to $5,000. Bruce Thurston, General Manager of Yorkton Co-op, says that the amount of support was tremendous, with the largest amount ever donated through the campaign. The Yorkton Co-op has been a long-time supporter of the Soup Haven, also donating 50 loaves of bread per week for school lunches. Marilyn Dyck, program director, thanks the Co-op for its long-standing support of the Soup Haven, and says that the donation was stuff that they desperately needed. “Yorkton has always come along side the Soup Haven and have been so giving in all ways.” Pictured, Rachel Schedlosky and Samantha Hall help put together some lunches for kids in the city.

Cutting red tape needs balance Nobody likes red-tape, particularly not the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB). This week, the Government of Saskatchewan jumped on the CFIB antired-tape bandwagon by proclaiming January 18 to 22 Red Tape Awareness Week. Eliminating unnecessary red tape is a laudable goal. The key word here, however, is ‘unnecessary.’ Before we throw out the baby with the bath water, it is important to be clear on what we are talking about. Red tape is a euphemism for regulation. The Province’s own euphemism is “regulatory modernization.” One of, if not the most important functions of government is regulation. It prevents builders from constructing dangerous structures; it keeps industrialists companies from contaminating water resources; it stops employers from abusing their employees; and it ensures an even playing field for all irrespective of race, religion or creed. Of course, it is not perfect because people are not always as scrupulous as we would like them to be. That is why regulations also create the framework to punish and or mitigate/rectify abuses. Small- and medium-sized businesses are indeed the drivers of the economy and the News Review agrees that the Province should be doing what it can to ease the burden of unnecessary red tape, but not at the expense of important safety and environmental protections. It would be really nice if we could simply trust all businesses to be fair and accountable, but history teaches us we simply cannot. CFIB gives Saskatchewan a “B” grade for deregulation, which is all fine and good, but this organization is basically a special interest group. Where is the independent analysis of the government’s efforts? It is not an easy task. The Province’s latest Annual Regulatory Modernization Report (the Report) contains more than 200 red-tape reducing initiatives, many of which are as clear as mud as to whether they are good or bad. Some are obviously positive, common sense measures, such as eliminating the inspection requirement for vehicles coming from Alberta and B.C. providing they are not rebuilt, are under four years old or have an inspection certificate from a recognized source that is less than 90 days old. Others are more concerning, such as the Conservation Easements Amendment Act. The rationale for this change according to the Report was: “It was difficult for conservation easement holders and grantors to make changes to existing easements in an efficient and cost-effective fashion.” It would seem, in this case, making it difficult was the whole point so as protect natural areas from damaging economic activity. For the public, Red Tape Awareness Week should be as much about holding the government accountable for its deregulatory activities as it is about celebrating the CFIB’s positive opinion. Again, reducing red tape is not necessarily good or bad. It is about balance. Leaving something for future generations is just as important as Immigration, Jobs, Skills and Training Minister Jeremy Harrison’s stated goal to “improve business competitiveness as well as promote growth and innovation in Saskatchewan.”
Trying to play Trump in Canada The weird feud between Alberta Premier Rachel Notley and noted television blowhard Kevin O’Leary is initially quite baffling. His offer of a million dollars for the Alberta oil industry if Notley resigns makes it appear as though he has a fundamental misunderstanding of how the oil industry works. Notley, of course, cannot control the price of oil, it’s largely determined by the much larger international market, and Notley would have a vested interest in keeping it high, whatever her political stripe. As well, a million dollars is a large sounding number, but it’s honestly not that much money in an industry where billions is invested every year. On the face of it, the entire thing is a really stupid statement made by someone who should arguably know better. Except, of course, it isn’t. What we are seeing is the start of the Conservative leadership race, and the opening play of a Trumpesque attempt to gain the leadership of the federal Conservative party. O’Leary is taking the role of the loud, shouting leadership candidate who is not “politically correct,” which seems to be code for willing to say things that make them look stupid. Instead of playing to angry racists, as Trump is doing south of the border, O’Leary has decided to start by playing to unemployed oil industry workers. He’s giving them a boogeyman in Notley, a solution in himself, and hoping that their despair over the state of their industry will allow him to ride into the top chair. He has already admitted to being somewhat inspired by Trump, and this is a Trumpesque stunt to get people paying attention to him. O’Leary knows that Notley isn’t going to resign because a shouting famous man is promising a relatively small amount of investment, so his money is going to be safe. He is banking on the people he wants supporting him don’t actually know much about money or the industry they work in. A million dollars sounds big, and if it was put directly into one of our bank accounts we would be very happy. But when it comes to the oil industry, you’re looking at hundreds of millions to do anything at all, into the billions if we’re talking about the amount of actual investment that would actually make a meaningful difference. A million dollars can’t fix a road in Yorkton, how is it supposed to save the oil industry of Alberta? It’s always scary when a politician, or potential politician in this case, banks on their supporters being unable to understand the world around them. It gives the impression that, in power, they would try to sneak in dangerous changes as the rubes wouldn’t be able to grasp what they’re trying to accomplish. The statement by O’Leary shows a dangerous lack of respect for voters and their basic
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger intelligence. He made a loud, controversial and ultimately meaningless statement, but he’s hoping that enough people don’t look very closely at the substance of his offer, so he can look like the hero of the working class rather than someone who is essentially exploiting them for votes. Whether or not you agree with the Conservative party as a whole, you have to hope that the person who eventually assumes leadership is someone who voters can respect, and respects voters in turn. A basic amount of respect for the people charged with putting them in charge is required for a leader to stay in charge and keep people from turning on them. When someone seems arrogant they start to draw the suspicion of voters, when someone actually is arrogant they start to do things which run counter to their mandate to the detriment of the country. O’Leary, meanwhile, is beginning his campaign with a flourish of arrogance with a side of disdain for the population of the province he is professing to care about. The amount of money he’s offering for an upheaval of Alberta’s government is insultingly low if you give it any thought, and he’s banking on people not giving it any thought at all. We do at least have a glimpse of the focus of this Conservative leadership campaign. Alberta is going to be a battleground, it’s a stalwart Conservative province with a premier who is an easy boogeyman for their base of supporters. Uniting against Notley is going to be a rallying cry for the party in the province, because having someone they don’t like is a way to get supporters politically active and ready to support their candidate of choice. Contented people are much less likely to vote than people who are dissatisfied with the political situation that surrounds them. I hope that, unlike our neighbours south of the border, we roundly reject the loud, obnoxious, television personality who talks down to the population and instead see leadership campaigns involving candidates who have at least a degree of respect for the people they hope will support them. Whether I agree with a political party or not, I merely hope their leader is someone who I can respect in turn.

The First Tool of Astronomy I do not know a single astronomy hobbyist who does not own a decent pair of binoculars. Unlike my telescopes, my binoculars never miss a stargazing session. You may have the greatest set of titanium sockets in the shop, but every once in a while, nothing does the job like a crescent wrench. Binoculars, essentially two telescopes mounted together, have always been vastly under-rated as an astronomical instrument. Galileo would have killed for the lowliest
set of binoculars on your shelf. Although telescopes certainly expand your options infinitely, you can go for years without exhausting the list of night sky objects viewable with binoculars: the Moon becomes three dimensional complete with mountains and seas, planets show crescents and orbiting moons, and star clusters and a few Milky Way gas clouds are within reach. Comet Catalina, currently just to the left of the Big Dipper’s handle, pops into view. In the day

marked 7x50 or 10x50; the first number is the magnification, and the second is the diameter of the lens at the end in millimetres. Lighter weight 7x35s are better for pre-teens; anything bigger than 10x50s need a tripod or lots of experience. Note that 50mm binoculars will potentially gather twice as much light as a 35mm pair, so, all things being considered, this is usually preferable. One final thing: binoculars that zoom are seldom of comparable image quality to those that don’t, so avoid them.
The hardest thing about using binoculars at night is holding them steady enough to concentrate on what you’re trying to see (recline in a chair or lean against something, grip them at the end, near the lenses, and brace your elbows against your chest). Although this takes a little practise, there’s nothing else to learn; they just work. Find yourself a good pair of binoculars and you will have a friend for life, one that makes the universe infinitely more accessible from your own back yard.

Your letter of the Week Don’t force First Nations people to wait for accountability Charmaine Stick takes care of six kids. She also reads financial documents to keep an eye on her local government because “what else would she do at home all day?” But she can’t find out how much her band chief is paid. Her chief cites treaty rights as a reason to avoid transparency, but she says accountability to the community is an essential part of First Nations culture. Ms. Stick lives on Onion Lake First Nation in Saskatchewan. More than 93 per cent of Canadian First Nations have complied with the First Nations Financial Transparency Act (FNFTA) and disclosed basic financial information such as the salaries of chiefs and councils. Onion Lake refused to provide this transparency and fought the government in court. Now Ms. Stick may have a longer wait for answers because of a recent decision made by Indigenous and Northern Affairs Minister Carolyn Bennett. “In keeping with our commitment to a renewed, nation-to-nation relationship, the Government of Canada will suspend any court actions against First Nations who have not
complied with the Act,” said Minister Bennett in a written statement. She went on to add that “transparency and accountability are paramount to any government, whether it is municipal, provincial, federal or First Nation.” The legislation allows the government to withhold non-essential funding from unaccountable bands, but Minister Bennett is now giving up that enforcement mechanism. Minister Bennett buried her statement on a Friday afternoon before Christmas to avoid tough questions from reporters for good reason. The Globe and Mail defined the issue early. “The FNFTA is essential for responsible government,” stated the Globe and Mail editorial board back on Aug. 19. “The governed always need to know what the governors are up to.” “It is a critical and overdue measure of accountability: in common with other politicians in Canada, aboriginal chiefs cannot properly be accountable to the people they represent if their finances are not open to scrutiny,” echoed the National
Post editorial pages on Sept. 2. “The Liberals came to power promising more open, transparent governance,” concluded the Toronto Star’s editorial on Dec. 21. “That should go for Ottawa and First Nations alike. No exceptions.” Canada’s media stalwarts are not the only sources of support for First Nations accountability. “Transparency is a logical idea,” wrote First Nations author Richard Wagamece in First Nations Drum. “Why not show Canadians how well we can manage our own affairs?” There are, of course, those opposed to the legislation. “First Nations fully support accountability but Bill C-27 [FNFTA] is a flawed piece of legislation that does not respect our rights and must be repealed,” said Assembly of First Nations National Chief Perry Bellegarde. “[Minister Bennett’s] announcement gives us an opportunity to work together on a better approach where First Nations are accountable to their citizens first.” Others have a more blunt opinion. “It’s always about this discrimination and sorry to say, for me it’s
racism,” said Chief Wallace Fox of Onion Lake. “It’s discriminatory legislation because no other race is subject to this legislation in Canada except Indian people.” Chief Fox ignores the simple fact that the need for accountability is universal and elected leaders around the world publish their salaries. Here’s the simple reality: Ms. Stick doesn’t know how much Chief Fox is getting paid. She is, however, well aware that the average income for people living in Onion Lake is $17,528. Accountable government is critical to improving life for Ms Stick and her family. As the minister responsible, Minister Bennett has access to answers that are hidden from Ms. Stick. Notwithstanding Minister Bennett’s commitment to an improved nation-to-nation relationship, she cannot keep those answers hidden forever. Ms. Stick must not be left waiting in the dark.

Culinary Resolutions for 2016 Ah, the start of a fresh year. What better time is there to make a pact with oneself to start anew? In the position of a culinary instructor, I encounter many situations with people wanting to improve areas of the culinary arts within their home kitchens and lifestyles. If you are undecided about making a resolution, contemplate making one focusing on the culinary aspect in your life. The most common culinary resolution would be one of dietetic and health boundaries. Many people have the aspiration to start the New Year with a promise of either losing weight or getting in better physical shape. The change in what you consume on a daily basis will obviously influence your success, or lack there of. Try making a resolution to yourself to investigate low fat, low carbohydrate, and/or high protein cook-
ing. This promise will involve educating yourself in these areas, and putting the acquired information into practice. Go to the library, research the Internet, buy a cookbook, and take a cooking class. Maybe a more suited resolution would be to revamp the state of your pantry and the food supply in your kitchen. Perhaps you have always wanted to have a pantry that is more focused on your favorite cuisines. For example, someone who loves Italian and Greek cuisine would stock their pantry with varying types of olives, capers, tomatoes, grape leaves, olive oils, balsamic vinegars, etc. The refrigerator and freezer can also be coordinated to contain the perishables of the same cuisine. Motivation to focus more on cooking certain cuisines in your household will start with having the ingredients at
Chef Dez on Cooking by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com your fingertips. One can even take this to the extreme in organization by creating labels and segregating areas in your pantry for different food groupings. The simplest of all culinary resolutions however, would be to blow dust off your cookbooks and start making some new dishes. Whether it is of small or large proportions, we all have collections of cookbooks... with many of them going unused. Make it a goal in your home to open up a cookbook once or twice a week, and try a new recipe. If you choose to do this, make sure you are setting yourself up for success. Decide
on and investigate the recipe prior to the date you plan on making it. Purchase the ingredients ahead of time, and ensure that you have the basic equipment and utensils necessary to successfully complete the task at hand. This will help eliminate any stress that you may encounter during preparation. “Attitude is everything”. This is the best advice I can give you. Whatever you approach in life, from making a resolution, making new friends or making a new recipe, proceed in a positive fashion. You will always find what you are searching for. If
you look for the positives in something or someone, you will always find them. The same applies if you are seeking out negatives. Be aware of what you are looking for and your experience will always be more rewarding.

Happy New Year! Our Community Christmas supper & social was held at Good Spirit Provincial Park Rec. Hall last month. The hall was decorated in the Christmas theme as well as beautifully set tables. Following the blessing, supper was served buffet style. Three G’ Friends from Canora catered again this year, & filled our tummies to the brim!! Christmas music filled the air, as people visited with one another. There were residents, young and old as well as guests who were welcomed to the festivities. The Christmas spirit prevaled by gifts of money & non-perishable foods to be taken to the Salvation Army. Thank you to all who attended and made this year’s party one to remember. We got some snow during Dec. which has given us the chance to ride the snow mobile trails. The word has been out about the snow, so we have seen a lot of riders. The trails are sort of getting pounded out now...so caution must be taken while on the trails....also there is still some open water in places. Thanks to Brad, Logan & Chris for getting the ice at the skating rink ready in time for Christmas. It is a lot of work, & we all appreciate it. It got a lot of use over the holidays! Also, thank you Greg for fixing the gate to the rink! We have had families visiting over the holidays, & some adventurous people making their own cross country ski trails, as well doing some snow shoeing. That’s the advantage

Fern at Good Spirit Market wants everyone to think... SNOW, SNOW,SNOW! She has been busy making buns over the holidays...can hardly keep up! Coffee goers meet there morning & afternoon to visit and pick up our mail or get some snacks, groceries or gasoline. We are so lucky to have this convenience store here! The first week in Feb. is the for Prairie Women on Snowmobiles as well as SnowArama...two very important charities.

Hamlet Council News Prior to winter clos-
ing in the Hamlet was able to clean out the culverts channels of all bull rushes as to allow the water to flow freely in the spring. Work was also completed in cleaning out some roots and debris at the east end of the alley behind Pebble Beach Road. The intention is to do some work behind the west end alley of Pebble Beach Road in the spring. The training for the proper use of the defibrillator has been completed with a number of new faces on board. The pads have been refreshed and are ready for use. With the new year the Hamlet Board will be beginning the process of setting up budgets for 2016, which promises to be challenging. As you may have noted, a trapper has been granted permission to trap some coyotes as they have become a menacing nuisance around the Hamlet. The Hamlet Board would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I wish everyone Peace, Happiness and Joy in the coming Year! Carol Olsen
going to the gym is extremely important. Calories are energy and too many times prior I wasted my efforts limiting them too extensively in my total food intake. Without enough calories in my diet, I never had enough energy to maintain a regular exercise program. Please keep in mind that I am not a dietician or medical professional. Everybody is different and I believe that a successful method exists for everyone.

Rush opener should satisfy all involved It was a frosty Friday and three buds still piled in a car and headed west on that boring trip to Saskatoon. The stretch of #16 is among the most tedious of trips to anywhere from here, although fortunately the three of us are all rather avid disc golfers so we had a topic of discussion most of the way, such as how great courses at Foam Lake, Wynyard, or Lanigan would be, and we did come up with a neat idea for a ’dawn ’til dusk’ event involving multiple area courses June 18. But this trip was being made because of another common sport interest, box lacrosse. A quintet of us in Yorkton purchased a 10-ticket flex back for the inaugural season of the Saskatchewan Rush, and while two of the cabal members couldn’t get away three of us headed to the home opener. Where to start regarding the game though? The Rush failing to score a fourth quarter goal and losing 13-11 was as they say, a bummer. Mark Matthews took a fighting penalty at the end of the third quarter, and with him off the floor the Rush offence sputtered early in the fourth, including failing to score on a powerplay, and they never got back on track. The Rush offence tends to run through Matthews, who had five assists in the home opener, and a goal. He was second in scoring last season in the National Lacrosse League and you could see why, although on his own scoring chances he seemed just off a few
inches. But the experience was outstanding in spite of the loss. Just shy of 9,200 fans were in the arena, and they all were in a party mood. The number already in a Rush jersey was encouraging. A casual fan just checking out the game wasn’t likely to be making a jersey purchase before the opening face-off. The game started to AC/ DC’s Thunderstruck, and the music was pumped through most of the game. I knew that was an NLL ‘thing’ and I was curious what I would think? I dug it. The mood was just high energy from the get go. A wave managed three rounds, which had me wondering the last time I saw that at a Terrier hockey game. The cheerleaders were a nice touch. A half time live music interlude was fine, albeit not exactly my favourite musical style. It was the Johner Boys (yep second generation Johners), who wrote the team theme song ‘Get Ready for the Rush’. All of the added atmosphere was great. The action on the floor was even better. Lots of hits, a couple of dust-ops, and 24 goals; you can’t really want more in terms of sports entertainment. Saskatchewan fans we have a great sport to fall in love with here, and a championship team (defending), to follow. There is no reason the Rush can’t be a long term, highly successful franchise. And, in other NLL news the league recently
Sports View From the Couch by Calvin Daniels announced Nick Sakiewicz has been appointed NLL Commissioner. Sakiewicz brings over two decades of experience working in Major League Soccer, most recently serving as cofounding partner and CEO of Keystone Sports and Entertainment, the ownership entity of the Philadelphia Union of Major League Soccer. “Sakiewicz (pronounced Suh-KEV-itch) joined Major League Soccer as an original founding executive in 1995,” detailed a release on the NLL website. “Along with a small group of league executives, Sakiewicz helped launch MLS in 1996 as its first Vice President of Commercial Sponsorship Sales. Sakiewicz went on to lead two inaugural Major League Soccer teams from 1997 to 2006 in Tampa and New York, serving as President and General Manager for both teams.” In nine seasons involved with the MLS Sakiewicz received the league’s Executive of the Year award twice (1999 & 2000) and was nominated a third time. “I’m honored and excited to join a tremendous group of owners and lead the National Lacrosse League as NLL Commissioner,” Sakiewicz said in the release.
“Similar to soccer 20 years ago, lacrosse is a dynamic and rapidly-growing sport amongst an incredible demographic in North America. The National Lacrosse League is celebrating its 30th anniversary season featuring the best players in the world and highlighted by some incredibly entertaining competition. I’m really looking forward to bringing my experience working in MLS to the NLL and helping everyone in the lacrosse community to grow the league and expand the sport.” What I found most interesting about Sakiewicz’s appointment was his view to grow the NLL. A call-in press conference was held to introduce the new commissioner, which was played on NLL Radio available at www. nll.com During the press conference Sakiewicz called the league “the best-kept secret in professional sports entertainment. Now you would not expect a new league commissioner to suggest otherwise, but in this case I am very much on-side with his take. It is difficult for me to imagine a sports fan, those who like hockey, soccer, basketball etc, watching either the NLL, or Major League Lacrosse (the pro-

fessional outdoor league), and not being impressed by the game. In the case of the MLL it is a bit harder to get into with no Canadian franchise to follow, at least it is for me who is staunchly Canadian in all things, but the outdoor game of lacrosse is still amazing, aided by a pro-only 60-second shot clock, and a two point goal line, both obvious goal borrows from the hoops game. But back to Sakiewicz’s view on growing the NLL. At the press conference he said he wants to see the league grow to 16 teams, terming it “the magic number.” “I’ve got my eye set on getting to 16 as soon as we possibly can. Having said that, we’re going to be patient. We’re going to be deliberate. We’re going to make sure we find the right owner; the right venue, and we’re in a marketplace where the fans will embrace the team and make the team relevant. We can’t expand for the sake of expanding. You only need to do it once to learn if expansion teams don’t work, you actually take steps backwards.” Certainly NLL history is scattered with franchise moves, our Rush just a current example, not that franchise shifts are unique to lacrosse. Atlanta failed as a National Hockey League city twice, and Winnipeg is now on its second rendition of the Jets. For the NLL the first step would be to 12 teams to create two equal divisions, at least in my mind. That in itself presents a challenge at least to round out the west with Vancouver,
Calgary, Colorado and Saskatchewan. Edmonton is already talked about, but they were packing the arena for the Rush. On the NLL Facebook page a few fans in Minnesota are lamenting the loss of their team, but again if a franchise leaves after a decade there had to be issues. Once upon a time Winnipeg was talked of for the NLL too, good news for our Rush in terms of the obvious rivalry, but with the Jets and the affiliate Manitoba Moose the winter ticket dollars may be limited in a smallish city for lacrosse. Obviously the NLL would covet a California franchise or two, but the state is far from a lacrosse hotbed. By contrast player numbers in Texas are growing, and with the MLL eyeing Houston, the NLL has got to be thinking about the state too. Out east, Ottawa, once an NLL city, and Montreal are mentioned, and since Sakiewicz hails from Philadelphia and it was home for years to an NLL team, you have to think that might be an obvious city to return to the fold. Of course the commissioner did not attach a timeframe to a 16 team league, but surely 12 is seen as a shorter term must. For the Rush, successful teams in Edmonton and Winnipeg would be ideal in terms of rivalries, and helpful spurring TSN to more televised games in this country, but I suspect only one of the two, if either, sees a franchise, at least anytime soon.

Four Winds Gardens in Quebec is well worth the trip! Les Jardins the Quatre Vents (Four Winds Gardens) in Quebec is well worth the trip! By Sara Williams When we think of glorious estate gardens, we think of Great Britain and Europe. But Quebec has one of the finest in North America, Les Jardin de Quatre Vents (The Four Winds Gardens), created by Francis H. Cabot. Located above the St. Lawrence River and backed by the Laurentian Hills, its 20 acres in the zone 4 maritime is a scenic 2 hour drive northeast of Quebec City. Les Jardins de Quatre Vents consists of formal gardens around the house; the meadow, orchard and vegetable gardens; the ravine woodland stream and native flower area; the “pigeonnaire” (dovecot); and the Japanese pavilions. All very diverse but set seamlessly within the whole. As Cabot wrote, “By framing a view and directing the eye, paradoxically limiting what can be seen, you create an appetite for more… The invitation to explore is central to the garden.” And so it is. Close to the house, the broad green carpet of lawn (Tapis verde) edged
with hedges forms an east-west axis that draws the eye to the informal lake at its foot. On either side are Arts & Crafts style gardens with low stone walls: The White Garden with a central pool level with the lawn; The Rose Garden with an under-planting of pinks that blooms earlier and is then trimmed to form a blue-grey carpet of foliage beneath the roses; the Perennial and Goose Allees; and the Thuja Allee with its parallel water feature running down to the lake. On the north side of the classic French farmhouse are three small formal gardens, each an extension of the interior
of a room nearby. A Salad Garden is opposite the kitchen door. Next is the Bread Garden complete with a working outdoor oven flanked by two large topiary loaves of bread and fronted by a knot garden. Opposite the guest room is an “outdoor living room” composed of thuja topiaries - overstuffed chairs and a sofa. A woodland ravine, stream garden and a small lake (home to both domestic and wild waterfowl) dominate the western end of the property. The lake is flanked by two bridges, one in Japanese style, the other in Chinese style. I was blown away by the sudden and unexpect-
ed appearance of the bluegrey stone dovecote or “pigeonnaire”, modeled after a photo that Cabot saw in an old French book on rural architecture. Overlooking a long narrow reflecting pool, one sees the lake beyond through the pigeonnaire’s archway and the sky above in the water. Last but not least, in the lower end of the wooded ravine, is the Japanese contemplation pavilion. It is so quietly authentic that it brings tears to one’s eyes. Surrounded by wood and water, it is indeed a “beautiful place in which to stop and view trout deeply.” If planning to visit this summer, order your tickets now. The garden is only open during four summer Saturdays: June 25, July 9, July 23 and August 6. Tickets must be
pre-booked and paid for online from http://cepas. qc.ca/jardins-de-quatrevents (the site is in French with limited English, but easy to navigate). The majority of tours are in French, but two are offered each day in English. The tour groups are small (22) and times fill up fast. Sara Williams is the author of the newly expanded and revised Creating the Prairie Xeriscape; Gardening, Naturally: A chemicalfree handbook for the Prairies; and the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo: A Photographic History. Join Sara on two garden tours this summer: May in Great Britain and Iceland (with cohost Melanie Elliott) in July. For more information contact Ruth at ruth@

Province proclaims 2016 Red Tape Awareness Week The importance of regulatory modernization was highlighted today, as the Government of Saskatchewan and the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) proclaimed January 18 to 22, as Red Tape Awareness Week in the province. This week provides the opportunity to highlight the province’s efforts to reduce the regulatory burden for Saskatchewan businesses and consumers. “Our government remains committed to reducing red tape so we can improve business competitiveness as well as promote growth and innovation in Saskatchewan,” Immigration, Jobs, Skills and Training Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “Through our Red Tape Reduction Action Plan, we have set direction for ministries, agencies and crowns to review business regulations for impacts and costs at least once every 10 years.” The 2014-15 Regulatory Modernization Progress Report identified more than 200 initiatives undertaken to reduce red tape in Saskatchewan. Other achievements over the past year include cost savings across government, identified through a regulatory cost model used as part of the Red Tape Reduction

Action Plan. A target of $5 million in savings was established for the 201516 fiscal year. To date, a total of $12.4 million in savings has been achieved through regulatory changes at the Ministry of Health, Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI), the Ministry of Government Relations, and SaskEnergy, SaskTel and SaskPower. “We commend the Government of Saskatchewan for continuing to stand out as one of the few provinces that has made regulatory accountability a priority,” CFIB Vice-President, Prairie and Agri-business, Marilyn Braun-Pollon said. “We are especially pleased the cost savings identified through the regulatory cost model exceeded the target set for the 2015-16 fiscal year by millions of dollars. We believe understanding the costs associated with any new regulatory proposal must be part of the decision making process.” During the 2016 Red Tape Awareness Week, CFIB will hold a number of activities, including the

issuing of its annual provincial report card, and its annual Golden Scissors award which acknowledges the work of an elected official or others in governments across Canada to reduce regulatory burdens for businesses. The following Government of Saskatchewan officials have been selected as finalists for this year’s award: Richelle Bourgoin, Former Director, Mission Planning and Employer Engagement, Saskatchewan Ministry
of the Economy: While at the Ministry of Economy, her efforts were instrumental in transitioning the manual employer application process of the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) to an online process. This reduced the processing time for these applications from eight months to 10 days. Minister Harrison and Highways and Infrastructure Minister Nancy Heppner: Their joint efforts were effective
in reducing interprovincial regulations on truck signage, improving internal trade between provinces. Regulatory modernization forms an important part of the government’s Saskatchewan Plan for Growth and its commitment to an improved busi-
ness environment in the province. More information on the 2016 Red Tape Awareness Week events and awards is available at www.cfib-fcei.ca/english/article/6890-red-tapeawareness-week-2016. html.

COREY WERNER, Broker/Owner of Core Real Estate, presented a cheque for $3,400 to Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation. “We know how important this kind of equipment is,” said Mr. Werner. We think it’s important to help The Health Foundation when they are raising funds to purchase this kind of equipment. New technology like this CT scanner will provide better images for diagnosis and newer technology will help with improved access to medical tests. “I know that my associates and I here at Core Real Estate see making this kind of donation as a way of giving back to the community, and giving back to our clients. We are all going to need the healthcare system, maybe not today, but eventually everyone uses healthcare. When we need healthcare we want good equipment available to us and we don’t want to have to travel to other cities to get the tests we need,” continued Mr. Werner. “I think that’s why it’s important we all do what we can to support these fundraising campaigns. We came up with this amount as we said we would donate $200 for every house sold in a two month period, and we sold 17 houses in April and May,” concluded Mr. Werner. “We are very grateful for this donation,” said Ross Fisher. “Corey had made this commitment several months ago, but we didn’t know the donation would be this large.” “Core Real Estate has been very supportive of our work and has supported most of our campaigns to bring new and modern equipment to the regional hospital.”

The Travelling Mabels A “Stars For Saskatchewan” performance presented by the Yorkton Arts Council, Monday, February 29, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. in the Anne Portnuff Theatre, Yorkton Regional High School. The Travelling Mabels, voted ACMA 2011 “Group of the Year,” are a folk/ country female trio full of spirit, spunk and laughter. Collectively, their songs bring a wealth of life experience to the stage. Singularly, each woman can vocally stand alone, but once you hear the combined harmony blend, you will know why these three women came together. The beauty of the Mabels is that they represent three generations of women. This has opened the door to a dynamic energy both musically and in the rapport with the audiences that most wouldn’t experience every day. With musical influences from Dolly Parton & Bob Dylan to Sheryl Crow, along with their comedic, yet often heart-felt take on life, they more than meet a wide range of audience expectations. www.the travellingmabels.com Tickets are available at the Yorkton Arts Council, 306-783-8722, online at www.ticketpro.ca or at the door. www.yorktonarts.ca Volunteers Needed! The Canadian Red Cross is seeking volunteers for the Friendly Visiting Program for Seniors. Volunteers will be trained to provide weekly visits or phone calls to socially or geographically isolated seniors in Yorkton and surrounding area.

The benefits of resting between workouts
E
xercise enthusiasts often find it hard to break from their workout routines, even if that respite is just a single day for ordinary rest and recovery. But athletes who forgo rest will almost certainly suffer the consequences, which can include illness, injury and fatigue. When working out is part of a regular routine, it’s easy for men and women to get in a groove and want to continue that groove by continuing to exercise every day. But periodic rest boasts plenty of benefits that will improve long-term performance and greatly reduce your risk for injury or illness.
t 3FDPWFSZ Muscles need time to recover, so build in at least one day off per week so your body has time to heal. If you are unsure of when to take a day off, try checking your resting heart rate in the morning after a few days off from your workout routine. Take your pulse the moment you get out of bed, and remember that number going forward. On days when you need to know if your body has recovered, take your resting heart rate once again. If the number is roughly 10 beats higher than it was when you measured after a couple of days off, then your body likely needs more time to recover. t *MMOFTT SJTL Regular exercise strengthens the immune system, making it easier for the body to fend off colds and other illnesses. But if you overdo it with your workout routine, that exercise starts to have a countereffect on your immune system, weakening it and making you more susceptible to illness. So periodic rest not only helps your muscles recover but also ensures your immune system is not compromised. t 1FSGPSNBODF Competitive athletes may think that out-training their opponents gives them an edge, but overdoing it with training regimens can actually compromise their performance. As you go longer and longer without taking a break from your exercise routine, your body grows increasingly fatigued, and that fatigue will ultimately have an adverse effect on your performance, not to mention greatly increase your risk of injury. t &GGFDUJWFOFTT Rest also helps make workouts more effective. The body needs time to rest and repair after a workout, but this downtime also gives the body time to adapt to exercise. When a body is overloaded, it has no time to adapt, making the workouts less effective. A body that begins a workout rested and free of fatigue has a better chance of benefitting from a workout than one that hasn’t been given the opportunity to rest and recover. By allowing your body time to adapt, you’re increasing the effectiveness of your workouts.
