SWF conference aims to get people outside By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Brian Keating firmly believes that people are not getting out into nature nearly enough. The keynote speaker at the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation’s 87th Annual Conference, Keating hoped to inspire the people in the room to work towards getting more people going outside. When discussing the decreasing amount of time spent outdoors, Keating references the concept of Nature Deficit Disorder, coined by Richard Louv. He says that with kids spending hours upon hours looking at a screen, it’s time to change the trend and get them outside. “We are raising children who, to large degree, are now so disassociated with nature that they are losing touch with what makes them human. I tell kids these days that humans are really just large, upright, welldressed, iPad holding gophers. We need the same productive soil, we need clean water and we need clean air to survive. If we don’t get kids outdoors, they’ll never devel-

op a love or appreciation of the great outdoors.” The importance of getting kids out into nature is an urgent one, Keating says, because those kids are going to be decisionmakers in the future. “When it comes to making important decisions down the road, when they get into power play positions like many of the people in that room are, if we don’t have them armed with that love from the heart about how important nature is, we’re going to miss the boat. Who is going to protect our creeks, our rivers, our streams, our hills, our forests, our prairies?” While people are realizing the importance of nature in our lives, Keating says that it’s urgent to get kids less reliant on technology. He notes that kids spend 55 hours a week looking at a screen, a trend Keating hopes to change. He says that with more outdoororiented population, it reverses the trends towards hyperactivity and obesity. “Imagine if they took that 55 hours and spend it in front of nature? We would have a very different population.”

BRIAN KEATING talks to attendees at the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation’s annual conference. He spoke to the crowd about the importance of getting people back into the outdoors, especially kids. Keating’s presentation covered a wide range of animals, whether

extremely common like the mallard duck or endangered like the

whooping crane. Keating says that’s a deliberate choice, because celebrating nature involves celebrating everything from a common animal to those people are trying to save. “We’ve got to celebrate all aspects. Endangered species are important, and [the whooping crane] is a symbol of the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation and it’s a wonderful symbol, because it’s a symbol of hope. They’ve gone from 22 birds to over 500 now from the hard work and dedicated effort of people like the people in that room.” He also believes an organization like the SWF is well suited to change that trend, and use their members to help get kids outdoors. He says a combination of experience in the outdoors and love of nature makes the members ideally suited to reversing that trend. He hopes that

through the conference, people get new ideas and are inspired to try new approaches to get people appreciating nature again. “There are 32,000 members of this organization, that’s the largest percentage of population of any region in the world for an organization that’s focused on wildlife. They’ve got a very dynamic education system that’s very involved in getting kids outside.” For himself, the chance to return to the province is one that Keating appreciated. “It’s great to be back in Saskatchewan. I lived here for three years, years ago when I worked with the Canadian Wildlife Service near Webb Saskatchewan at the Prairie Wildlife Centre, and I did a lot of southern and central Saskatchewan exploration. It’s great to be back here, it’s a very special province.”

STIP wants to see changes in insurance By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer A local lobbying group wants to see big changes to the way insurance is handled in the province. Start Timely Insurance Practices Inc., or STIP, wants to see more power for consumers as they deal with the insurance industry. Linda Greba, spokesperson for the group, says that they have been formed because they have had “horror stories” with insurance, and difficulty getting resolutions that are positive for the client. As a result, they have formed a group to advocate for several reforms to the insurance industry. Their goals are to see insurance brokers receive more formalized and intensive training programs, a requirement of easy to understand information packages so clients have all the relevant information involved in claims, prompt insurance payouts and handling and a regulatory body for the client. The ultimate goal is consistency and transparency, Greba says, and to make sure that clients have tools to know what they’re able to do and what rights they have if FRONT PAGE PHOTO – With warm weather and plenty of snow left around, it’s the perfect time of year to make yourself a snowman, just like this family on Third Avenue did.

they need to make a claim. “We found that there were a lot of people who were not aware that they could get a motel or were told what the procedure was, they couldn’t get meals, they couldn’t get small sundry items. A simple package with vouchers or a letter to that company or motel would make it much easier for the client.”

HEALTH EDUCATION – The RBC Foundation has made a major contribution to the Health and Wellness Centre, donating a total of $50,000 to the facility. In the process, the education room at the facility was named the RBC Education Room. The room is multi-purpose, with education for clients with different conditions, community wellness fairs and other health information for the community. Pictured are Jacquie Holzmann and Sandy Tokaruk with the Sunrise Health Region, Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation, and Gillian Potter and Fred Schrader with RBC. Potter says that she is proud of the contribution she made both as part of RBC as well as someone who uses the facility. “It’s been great to be here and experience it... It’s great to have a place to come and just get the advice you need to increase your health.”

Kirsten MacDonald takes on Miss Teenage By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer A young woman from Yorkton is going to make her mark on the stage. Kirsten MacDonald is taking part in Miss Teenage Saskatchewan, with the goal of making it to the national event in Toronto. MacDonald has always wanted to do a pageant for years. Taking a break from school after graduation, she says that the opportunity came up and she decided to jump at it. She says that in the run up to the competition, she’s had to be in the public more, which is giving her more confidence. “I have been stepping out of my comfort zone a lot more.” The application process involved a written application as well as an interview with the executive director of Miss Teenage Canada, Michelle Weswaldi, where she was asked about her goals, her inspirations and her reasons for wanting to get involved in the pageant. She learned that she was accepted two

days later, and says she couldn’t contain her excitement. “I was screaming in the living room!” The competition has swimwear, evening gown and judge interview components. While MacDonald admits she’s nervous, she says that’s something common among the girls at the event. The girls in the competition also get opportunities to do workshops on modeling, public speaking and things of that nature. MacDonalds sees it as an opportunity, especially as she has been nervous doing things like public speaking before so she can use it as a chance to get comfortable with it. “It’s going to be a lot of work... I think this is a great experience for girls, and I wish I did it a lot sooner.” Each girl in the competition has a “platform,” or an issue that they want to highlight through their involvement in the competition. For MacDonald, she is focused on preventing bullying, a cause that she is pas-

sionate about because of her own past. She says that as a young girl, she was picked on because she has a high metabolism, and other kids would make fun of her appearance. “I always wanted to help people. Especially when you’re so young, and you don’t even know your own bodies yet. I didn’t see a difference, but I was a lot smaller than other people.” Girls in the competition are also encouraged to raise money for a specific charity. This year, that charity is Cardiac Kids, which raises money for kids with heart disease. They get points towards their eventual total through raising money for the charity, with one point per hundred dollars raised, to a maximum of 15 points. She’s also getting local businesses involved in her effort, with Pretty Face Makeup Studio and Shear Bliss Hair Salon contributing hair and makeup to her effort. MacDonald sees it as being a benefit to her future career, especially since it is a charity-

KIRSTEN MACDONALD is a Yorkton teenager who is working towards winning Miss Teenage Canada. The first step is the Miss Teenage Saskatchewan pageant in April, and MacDonald says she believes no matter what happens, it will be an “awesome” experience. focused event. Right now, she wants to get into the medical field because she has the ultimate goal of helping people, and she believes

that she can also help people, whether it’s raising money for sick kids or talking to people of the problem of bullying.

The pageant takes place on April 16 and 17 in Saskatoon. “It’s going to be awesome.”

STIP wants to see changes in insurance Cont’ from Page 2A Greba questions the impartiality of the system currently in place, arguing that the process is dominated by the insurance industry. She believes there needs to be a client advocate. “We have no committee formed to represent the client in this process, other than for you to take it to a lawyer, and you have to have money. If you’re already in a difficult situation and your insurance isn’t handling the situation… you can’t afford the lawyer. We want a committee formed, not paid for by any of them, to represent the client, before we get to that process.” The impetus for Greba’s involvement in

STIP have been two incidents that have been involved with her insurance company. In one, she says that someone was illegally placed in charge of her account. In the second, she had problems with an adjuster who she says deliberately underestimated damage to her business after a vehicle drove through a wall. She says that her difficulty with her own insurance, and the protracted time trying to get a resolution for her complaints, has been a big part of why she is pushing for the changes in the industry. “We want more accountability for insurance companies for upholding the policies that people believe they are being sold.” Greba also says that

with a provincial election coming soon, it’s the right time to start advocating for changing insurance in the province, hoping to make it an election issue. “We want the public to

be aware, we want the public to take this opportunity of an election to get a hold of us so we can help them, and make it an issue so we can get some progress made. Everybody

knows that during an election that’s when we get the most done.” To help STIP make this an issue, call Greba at (306) 338-8554. She also says that they can con-

nect people with information so they can be better informed when it comes to insurance and some of the things they might not know when it comes to their coverage.

No tax relief in Fire review Welcome to Yorkton’s version of “The Money Pit.” Last fall, the City contracted Dillon Consulting, at an estimated cost of $80,000, to study the local fire service. Taxpayers were told at the time the focus of the review was to make sure we were getting the best service possible in the most efficient way possible. To taxpayers, of course, efficiency is a political euphemism for cost cutting. The inference to be made was clearly that, with declining revenues and increasing expenses, Council wanted to save rate-payers, beleaguered lately by six per cent increases year over year, some money. Saving any money on fire services was a pipe dream, of course. At $2.5 million a year, or thereabout, in operational costs alone, the fire department is approximately 12.5 per cent of the municipal operations budget. In the end, Dillon put forward five possible options, three of which would have increased costs and only one of which was tenable in any event, because it was locallyderived with the input of the local firefighters union. Even that option cannot be implemented without collective bargaining with the union and that, as City Councils past and present have found out, is no bargain at all. This union is extremely powerful by the very nature of the job its members do. Firefighters protect us, and not just in fires. They are first responders in numerous situations. When there is a major incident, they sometimes risk their health, or even their lives. They also face other more subtle risks such as PTSD. That puts them in the driver’s seat when it comes to negotiations. Who is ever going to say ‘enough is enough’ to our heroes? Over the past two decades, the City and the union have gone to arbitration over wages four out of five times. The last time, an arbitrator awarded Yorkton firefighters an 18 per cent wage increase over three years. Every other City worker was lucky to get a cost-of-living increase. Private sector workers, on average, have seen a reduction in real wages. Forgive us if, while we greatly admire our firefighters, we don’t have a lot of sympathy for their ever-increasing wage demands. It is all about parity with other jurisdictions, they say, only it’s become a little bit of a game of leap-frog. City A gets a large settlement, which City B uses to argue parity and gets a large settlement, which City C uses to argue parity surpassing City A, which uses City C to argue parity and so on. The bottom line is, the option City Council finally chose is not going to reduce costs. In fact, costs are likely going to increase. The so-called “homegrown option” will maintain the 16 full-time positions and increase the number of temporary, paid oncall members from five to 24. This is supposedly going to save $200,000 in overtime and stat holiday wage costs. Another rationale for the change is that we will now have greater capacity to send a larger contingent to emergencies, something also recommended in the consultant’s report It is hard to imagine how any of this could reduce costs, something noted by Councillor Chris Wyatt, the only dissenting voice on Council. Even giving them the benefit of the doubt, there is the $80,000 spent on a review that never had any chance of saving money. Factor in the cost of recruiting—which the fire chief has already said is going to take an “aggressive (read expensive) marketing strategy”—training and investment in gear and any short-term savings are negated, at the very least. Then factor in the almost doubled membership of the local union and one can only imagine we are in for future costs that exceed present ones even adjusted for inflation. Welcome to Yorkton’s version of “The Money Pit.”

Phone battle might affect you Somewhere south of the border, a giant tech company is fighting the FBI. They do not want to find a way to access the phone of a couple of people involved in a shooting in California. If you use a smart phone, you probably agree with them, whether or not you realize it. The core of the argument is this, Apple (in this case, though it could easily be Google or Microsoft) cannot gain access to the phone in spite of designing it. They maintain this is on purpose – they don’t want there to be a way to get into a phone without the permission of the people who own it. The FBI thinks there should be some kind of “back door” on the device, so in cases like this there is a way for law enforcement officers to get into the phone and access things like texts and personal information of the people involved. It’s easy to think that you would not agree with Apple, because in this case it’s people trying to access the phone of some murderers. There are bound to be people arguing that if you’ve got nothing to hide you’ve got nothing to worry about when it comes to forcing companies to unlock a phone. The idea is to have a back door that works only for the police and law enforcement to get into the phone of criminals. The problem with back doors is that they can be opened, and they’re not always opened by the people with permission to open them. Apple’s point in this entire debate is that if a back door exists, it’s a security vulnerability that affects all users of their devices. While the FBI’s proposed workaround is designed to involve only their people, it still means a security vulnerability would be built into the system, and that is going to be a vulnerability that is going to be sought out by people who are not particularly interested in solving any crimes. Instead, they would be much more interested in committing crimes. As for having nothing to hide, actually, you’ve got plenty to hide, and it’s nothing illegal or immoral. Credit card information, passwords for various different websites, that kind of thing. Stuff that you have that you would not want anyone else to use for purely practical reasons. This is especially important as the various phone companies attempt to turn a mobile device into an electronic wallet and get businesses on board with that model. If Apple wants people to use their phone to conduct financial transactions, and they definitely do, part of their campaign will be that it’s a more secure method of payment. That does not work if they have an intentional, built in security vulnerability, even if it’s there for a good cause.

Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger The goal of creating a phone so secure that the company that makes it can’t unlock it exists for that reason. Even if Apple can unlock the phone, they can’t actually let anyone know it’s possible, because then people will start looking for how they did it and if they could replicate the trick. Apple has to declare that they can’t get in the phone because if they can, they have just announced to the world that their product is vulnerable. For business reasons, Apple can’t publicly cooperate with the FBI in this case, but it’s also to protect consumers who trust their device to keep their information at least somewhat secure. That doesn’t help investigators, and they are trying everything in their power to change Apple’s mind, including legal ramifications if they continue to refuse to unlock the device. If that works, it would be a serious blow to the company itself, as well as to consumers who buy any phone. If they are forced to design in a way to access a device under threat of the courts, it just means there’s a way to get into everyone’s phone. Suddenly, information is a lot less secure and people are carrying around devices which could easily be exploited by people who are up to no good. Information is already a commodity that people are looking for ways to steal, it’s not good to advertise that there’s a way to do it, and it’s mandated by law. Apple, through bad luck, has been forced to be the test for this case. They can’t back down, even if they want to assist in the investigation, because they have millions of customers worldwide who would be harmed by having a security vulnerability built in to their devices. While we can see the value of this investigation and in some ways want there to be a way into the phone to get the information the police force needs, we also have to realize this is a case with broader implications. This is not one phone, it’s everyone’s phone. Even if you don’t use an Apple device, it’s still going to set a legal precedent which will hit other phones. Our personal security is still important, and this is going to have implications for all of us and the shiny devices that sit in our pockets. If you own a smart phone, you want Apple to win this case.

Governments need to be ready to trim Governments routinely increase spending by a percentage point or two. Shouldn’t they be able to trim a little when necessary? The Saskatchewan government is projecting operational deficits this year and next year before getting back to balance. But time and again we see deficits get bigger and last longer than promised. Alberta and Manitoba are both running deficits that they once called modest and temporary and years later their debts have soared by billions. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s promised deficits of less than $10 billion, but that commitment is crumbling as borrowing projections are skyrocketing. First, it’s worth r e m e m b e r i n g where we’re at.

Saskatchewan’s current operational deficit is projected to be $262 million. The province is borrowing another $700 million for infrastructure. So Saskatchewan is likely to add about a billion to the provincial debt this year. After two decades of debt reduction, Saskatchewan is still getting top marks from bond rating agencies, but Standard and Poor’s recently issued a warning about future credit rating downgrades. Now, it’s also good to get some context. Alberta’s debt is more than $17 billion, it’s running a deficit of $8.9 billion and it’s gotten it’s own credit rating warning. Manitoba’s debt is nearly $36 billion, its operational deficit is $550 million and it

has already received a credit rating downgrade. So that’s where we are, but the bigger question is where we’re going now that we’re running a deficit this year and next? To his credit, Premier Brad Wall started cutting spending as soon as the operational deficit appeared and trimmed the budget by about $100 million. That’s about 0.75 per cent of the budget. Unfortunately, he also says “there isn’t much room left” to trim the remaining 99.25 per cent of provincial spending. And he’s speculating about raising the education portion of property taxes at some point in the future. If we act now, we can trim the budget with a scalpel rath-

er than a chainsaw. Reducing spending by about 1.8 per cent would eliminate Saskatchewan’s operational deficit. Once again, context is helpful. Former Alberta Premier Ralph Klein cut spending by about 18 per cent over the span of his first four budgets. Former Saskatchewan Premier Roy Romanow cut spending by more than 8 per cent in the 1992-93 budget and former federal finance minister Paul Martin cut nearly as much from Ottawa’s books in 1996-97. It’s not hard to find a place to start trimming in Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan has to shut down its Crown bus line – the Saskatchewan Transportation Company (STC). The

provincial government gave STC a subsidy of $13.6 million in 2014. The year before, it was $14 million. Some customers will be inconvenienced when it’s gone, but we can’t afford it any more. As long as the bus company is burning through more than a million dollars a month it’s impossible to believe there is no room left to cut. Further, if there’s no room left to cut, how are we going to pay for increasing interest costs? Alberta is projected to spend $778 million to cover the interest on its debt this year. For Manitoba, the number is $842 million. In Saskatchewan, we’re already paying $305 million to cover interest charges on existing debt. Those are hundreds of mil-

lions of dollars that leave the province instead of going to roads or hospitals or tax cuts. Maybe Sask atchewan will be different than all of those other provinces and get out of deficit quickly, but that’s not usually how it goes. “Deficits are a lot like potato chips … they’re not very good for your long-term health and bet you can’t stop at just one,” said Premier Wall in 2009. We don’t yet need deep cuts like those made by Klein, Martin and Romanow. We only need to trim a few per cent. But we need to do it now.

Your letter of the Week CPP changes not as positive as suggested To the Editor: Recent reports in the media are suggesting that any changes to the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) will benefit those currently retired or those near retirement. This is not the case. It is important to clarify that enhanced CPP benefits would be phased in over a period of 40 years and would not be retroactive. Any additional benefits would be paid for by employees with higher mandatory payroll

deductions throughout each worker’s career. More dollars would come off workers’ paycheques for CPP and this would reduce the financial flexibility many young workers and lowincome earners may need. As well, increasing the mandatory matching contributions of employers at a time when the economy is already fragile may cause businesses to cut jobs. The Government of Saskatchewan recognizes that

a portion of working Canadians may need to save more for their retirement. That’s why our government supports increasing retirement savings through voluntary options such as the Saskatchewan Pension Plan, RRSPs, tax-free savings accounts, and the new Pooled Registered Pension Plans, expected to be available in Saskatchewan later this year. Voluntary savings ensure that workers and employers continue to have the freedom

and flexibility to establish their own financial priorities. Our government values the role that the CPP plays at its current levels in providing basic benefits to working Canadians upon retirement. We encourage all Saskatchewan people to consider their retirement income needs and set aside additional savings through the voluntary options available. Kevin Doherty Minister of Finance

Two new shrubs for prairie gardens

Compared to more temperate areas of Canada, the palette of woody ornamentals is slim in Saskatchewan. So when new hardy shrubs become available, it’s exciting times for prairie gardeners. The two of note here are improved cultivars of Amur maple and elderberry. And for those on acreages, both tolerate browsing deer. If you covet the deep red fall colour of some of the recent Amur maple cultivars but lack the space for a small tree, Atomic (Acer ginnala ‘Durglobe’) is your answer. Compact and globe-shaped, it has a mature size of only 10 tall x 10 wide. Its amazing symmetry is due to its multiple growing points. It’s slow growing and may take up to 20 years to reach its ultimate size. While it’s not for those who want instant gratification,

it’s ideal for a smaller urban condo-type landscape, a low hedge, an accent plant or a rock garden. Atomic has early and outstanding deep blood red fall colour, is hardy to zone 2 and has excellent pest resistance. In mid-summer, the samaras (double-winged seeds) turn bright red, giving a hint what’s to come in the fall. Plant

in full to partial sun in well-drained soil. Once established, it is quite drought-tolerant. Lemon Lace™ elderberry (Sambucus racemosa) was selected for its distinctive foliage, smaller size, and pleasing form. Only 3 – 5 ft. tall and wide, it matures to form an attractive, irregular, but compact shaggy mound.

Why we leap

1800 and 1900 were not leap years, 2000 was, 2100 thru’ 2300 won’t be and 2400 will. Got it? Julius Caesar introduced the leap year more than 2000 years ago with only one rule: any year evenly divisible by four would be a leap year. However, this produced far too many leap years, and so was corrected with the introduction of the Gregorian calendar in 1582. Now we’re less wrong. Of course, this applies only to those who use the Gregorian calendar. Several other calendars, such as those used by the Jewish and Islamic cultures, have a different set of rules to manage time discrepancies. However, nobody to date has come up with a nice, clean method to mathematically explain what Mother Nature already knows, which is simply that time is not something the universe is overly concerned about. If we feel compelled to try to define exactly what time it is right now, that’s our problem, not Hers. 2016 is one of those years where all the mathematics works out and we get a free extra day to curl up with a good book about Julius Caesar or Pope Gregory XIII, or maybe to pause outside and take in the night sky. It’s a special day, and you never know what the universe might have planned, available from your own back yard.

The Universe from your own back yard by Jim Huziak jim@darkskies.ca.

‘Time’ is a complex topic, certainly too complex to cover in under five hundred words on this page. But, we do have the space to discuss one of our efforts to measure Time, and our shortcomings in doing so, which will be amply demonstrated this Monday, February 29th, when we insert a ‘Leap Day’, putting off March for another 24 hours (logically, it should have been called ‘Postpone Day’, but after a few millennia, ‘Leap’ is probably going to stick). The extra day is inserted to make up for the fact that the universe does things on its own time, but humans are not up to the task of measuring it. It takes the Earth 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 45 seconds to circle once around the Sun, but the Gregorian Calendar we currently use has only 365 days of 24 hours each (one Earth rotation). Over the course of a century, we end up about 24 days out of sync. So, to compensate, every four years we sometimes throw in a day. ‘Sometimes’ is the key word, because there are more rules. First, Leap Days are always inserted into the shortest month; nothing fancy there other than practicality. However, three conditions need to be met for a year to be a leap year: the year must be evenly divisible by four, but not if it divisible by 100 unless it can also be evenly divided by 400. Then it’s ok. Examples:

Its unique foliage is golden yellow and deeply cut and almost threadlike with a red tinge in early spring. Its foliage and moundlike shape are similar to Les Kerr’s ‘Goldenlocks’ of the early 1970s, but Lemon Lace™ is an altogether tougher plant. Rated hardy to zone 3, it is worth trialing in protected gardens in zone 2. Expect white spring flowers that develop on last year’s growth. Although the foliage is deer-resistant, the red fall fruit makes it a good edition to a wildlife garden attracting birds. Suited to partial shade to full sun in welldrained soil, Lemon Lace™ can be used in a mixed or shrub border, as an accent plant, or as the focal point in a large container (to overwinter, place it in the soil prior to freeze-up.) Sara will be hosting a

Local MP says Yorkton business vital While campaigning in the federal election I thoroughly enjoyed the experiences I had mainstreeting in downtown Yorkton. The variety, quality and professionalism of the

businesses and business owners I met was exceptional. Small business are vital to our communities – providing goods and services plus playing an integral part in sup-

porting charitable and community causes. Small businesses can be particularly vulnerable to economic barriers and shifts. That is why having a local and active Chamber of

Commerce and a supportive municipal government that values small business goes a long way in building confidence and growth. I am so pleased to commend the city of

Yorkton and it’s small business community for their dialogue, cooperation and willingness to work together for a common cause – a great quality of life for the citizens in

Yorkton and the surrounding region.

Cathay Wagantall, Member of Parliament Yorkton-Melville

Sask government thanks small businesses I believe small-business owners contribute personally and financially to the overall well-being of our community. Many work long hours and take risks to build a successful business in order to provide for their family, their employees and the community. What small-business owners create strengthens the economy and provides employment and income opportunities for individuals and families within the local community. Typically, small-business owners and employees are those who volunteer their time and donate back to the community. Yorkton has many fine examples of these described people. The provincial government, and I as the MLA for Yorkton, recognize and acknowledge the contribution small businesses make to our economy. Aside from jobs, small businesses are key to larger businesses and corporations’ success because they provide important supplies and supports which all contribute back to the economy as a whole. Small-businesses also contribute to provincial

revenues through taxes which helps the government deliver services and build infrastructure. They are an important partner in our government’s goal to

keep Saskatchewan strong and moving forward. As a representative of the Provincial Government, I commit to work diligently to reduce barriers and cre-

Chamber of Commerce salutes small business

Can you imagine what our province would be like if 98 per cent of the business community did not exist? Over 107,000 business doors would be closed and over 150,000 people would be without jobs. It’s small businesses that comprise 98 per cent of Saskatchewan’s business community and they play a huge role in keeping the province’s economy thriving! A small business, as defined by Saskatchewan’s Ministry of the

Economy, is one that employs fewer than 50 people. Most often, a small business is operated by an independent owner – an individual or a family. Small businesses are often described as the “backbone of the community” by providing goods and services and jobs. Diane Helbig, an author and business and leadership development coach describes small businesses as “lean, smart, complex – eternally entrepreneurial – not just small versions

of big business.” In Yorkton, we have hundreds of examples of entrepreneurs such as owners of hair salons, construction companies, consulting companies, print shops, manufacturing com-

panies, retail shops, restaurants, vehicle and equipment dealerships, aviation services and the list goes on. These small businesses are owned by our friends and neighbours who employ our friends and neighbours. And across the province, these small businesses contribute to 31 per cent of the province’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The Ministry of the Economy reports that the number of small businesses in the province has steadily

increased between 2003 and 2013. Over 11,000 more small businesses exist in Saskatchewan in 2013 than in 2003! While big businesses may have more visibility in a community, the small businesses are establishing and growing. Jim Blasingame, an expert in small business and entrepreneurship, suggests “in the marketplace, small businesses are the face and voice of humanity, which provides them with a great advantage in the Age of the Customer.” As

a result, it’s not likely we will see the demise of the small business sector any time in the near future. Small businesses are integral to the success of any community. On behalf of the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce, I salute our small businesses for the goods, services and jobs they provide to our community.

Juanita Polegi, Executive Director Yorkton Chamber of Commerce

Small business is the backbone of the ecomomy The thrust behind the Yorkton Business Improvement District, or YBID, is small business. Small business really is the backbone of the economy not only here in Yorkton but around the world. When you look at larger business or major corporations they simply did not start out as big business or corporations with hundreds of employees and sales in the millions. They were small. One or two people with an idea, a plan, and usually a small amount of money and a friendly banker. Over time if things go right, a small business grows and gets bigger. This is not true of all businesses, some stay small and make a good living for themselves, their families and their employees. One case in point is the local H&R Block Income Tax Company

in Yorkton. It was a small operation, they grew with a few new employees into a larger rented facility, now after several years of hard work, quality service and risking thousands of dollars, they find themselves just opening up in a

new building on West Broadway. H&R Block Yorkton, is a great example of why people get involved in a small business in the first place. If your currently involved in a home based business, you may be happy there, or you may want

to move to a small store front operation with dreams and plans to grow bigger in the future. The City of Yorkton

and other Yorkton business organizations are ready willing and able to help you reach your dreams. The YBID can help you too. If you have

questions, we provide answers and assistance in your small business needs, and we have no fees. Call us at 306. 783.9243

Small business gives back to the community

GIVING BACK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Local small business often gives back to the community, whether that means projects like the Health Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s different campaigns for medical equipment or the Community Clubhouse at Century Field, annual events like the Terry Fox Run or local charities like Habitat for Humanity, whenever there is a cause in the Yorkton area there is a small business nearby to support it. Whether they contribute money, time or items that support the cause, their contribution is appreciated.

Rush defender liking Saskatchewan

To say I am excited by the Saskatchewan Rush would be an understatement. Lacrosse is Canada’s official summer sport, and whether box, or field, it is exciting to watch, so having a professional National Lacrosse League team here is in my books about as good as it gets sports wise. The NLL season is already past the onethird mark and the

Rush, defending NLL champions (based in Edmonton last season), are off to a solid, if not spectacular start. The Rush are 4-2, and are coming off an 11-8 win Friday over Rochester, in a game played before more than 11,000 fans in Saskatoon. While I am sure the Rush would like to eclipse the 10,000 fans mark on average, given

Sports View From the Couch by Calvin Daniels the team is building a base in a new city, in a province where lacrosse has never been a major

participation sport, the early numbers are encouraging. It helps in building a fan base that the Rush has some of the league’s top players who can be ambassadors of the sport. One of those players is Kyle Rubisch. Rubisch has won the last three defender of the year titles in the NLL, which rather succinctly sums up just how good this guy is. Born in Brampton, ON, Rubisch is a graduate from Dowling College. He was named to the 2010 Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC)

All-Star Team and was a First Team All American. Rubisch has also received several accolades with his hometown team, the Brampton Excelsiors of Major Series Lacrosse. Rubisch was the second overall draft pick, going to the Boston Blazers in the 2010 NLL Entry Draft. From Wikipedia; “in his rookie season Rubisch headed the Blazers defense recording a team-high 143 loose balls and 20 forced turnovers. Rubisch also netted his first NLL goal against Rochester on April 2…. Rubisch was named to NLL AllRookie Team. When the Blazers suspended operations Rubisch was picked second overall in the dispersal draft by the Edmonton Rush where he subsequently was named the NLL Defensive Player of the year in 2012, 2013, and

Rush defender liking Saskatchewan .500 might not be what was expected for the defending champions, but Rubisch said there is no panic from a veteran team. “The coaches did a good job of putting a championship team together last year,” he said, adding that has helped with the transition to Saskatchewan. “We don’t really have the growing pains a typical new team would have.” And it is that veteran experience which keeps the team from worrying about their start to this season. At times the team has risen to the occasion for big wins, such as a 12-10 victory over Colorado in Saskatoon Jan. 29. “We knew from the start we had to keep the pressure on, that it was a big game,” offered Rubisch. “We wanted to keep pace with them, especially when playing in front of our fans.” The same Mammoth should defend their home floor Feb. 11, a game shown on TSN here in Canada, defeating the Rush 9-7. Both games were lowscoring for lacrosse, and that plays to Rubisch’s strength, although he

The star defender said the Rush move to Saskatchewan has been a positive one. “It’s been a great experience so far. The city has really embraced us,” he offered. Rubisch said the experience in Saskatoon does show, at least so far, that a smaller city can support lacrosse adding the sport is allowed to shine because it is not necessarily in the shadow of other, longer established pro sports, as it would be in most larger cities. “Saskatoon has really come out to support us,” he noted a second time, suggesting as they promote the sport more he is confident the fan base, and interest in lacrosse will grow too. But that does put some added onus on Rush players. Rubisch said the team recognizes they are ambassadors for lacrosse, and have to play a role in growing the sport overall in a relatively new market. “We want to be a staple in the community for a long time,” he said. As for the start to the season, lingering around

was quick to spread the success of the Rush keeping offence’s at bay, starting with netminder Aaron Bold. “He sets the pace for us,” said Rubisch, adding after that team defence takes over. “… We have one of the best defensive units in the game.” Rubisch said it takes a team effort to defend the NLL’s best shooters, the likes of Colorado’s Adam Jones and John Grant Jr. “The key thing is dictating the pace of play,” he said, adding the shooters in the NLL are too good is allowed to do what they want. “If you give them time and space to do what they want, to play their own game, it can really hurt you.” And if the defence does falter, Rubisch reiterated “Bold backs us up when he needs too.” From a stingy defence, an offence can flow too. “We try to push the

pace as much as possible when the opportunity is there,” said Rubisch,

but added the Rush have a talented cadre of snipers, so it’s never a

bad plan to pass the ball off and let the offence work from set plays.

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, or Welcome Home Gift Shop. You can also go online at www.yorktonarts.ca or www.ticketpro.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. One hour every other week is all that is required to provide social interaction with a senior and peace of mind for family and caregivers. For more information contact 306-620-3281 or email michelleb.smith@redcross. ca Samuel Deason A “Stars For Saskatchewan” performance presented by the Yorkton Arts Council, Thursday, March 31, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. in the Anne Portnuff Theatre, Yorkton Regional High School. Samuel Deason presents Kaleidoscope. A project crafted with the intention of delving the depths of emotion and color. Intensity will be artfully controlled through a carefully selected and diverse repertoire contrasting in tension and release, culminating with explosive momentum to the end. Although each composer is famous and brilliant by his own right, some of the pieces are quite rarely heard by a live audience. Resoeugi’s Notturno for example, is an absolute gem in the piano repertoire and is among the most beautiful pieces ever composed. This mix of music is just the right one to balance inspire, and zap one’s physical energies, and musical palate! menahempressler.org Tickets are available at the Yorkton Arts Council, 306-783-8722, www.ticketpro.ca or at the door.
