Province contributes over $60,000 to airport By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
REDISCOVERING DOWNTOWN – The Rediscover Downtown Yorkton Summer Festival was organized to bring people into Yorkton’s downtown core and show off what the city has to offer, using entertainment, games for young and old and the deals from the businesses themselves to show off the city’s downtown and draw people in from Yorkton and the surrounding area.

And so much more...!!
The Community Airport Partnership (CAP) program will see $700,000 flow out to small airports across the province for upgrades and maintenance. The Yorkton Municipal Airport is going to get a portion of those funds, receiving $61,961 for crack sealing, wildlife fencing and runway and taxiway markings. Larry Pearen, councillor with the City of Yorkton, says that airport has seen major benefits from the CAP program since it’s inception, receiving just over a million dollars in funding since 2007. “We think it’s very vital to our city’s existence and growth.” The city itself matches the funds given by the CAP program, which means that approximately $130,000 will be spent on projects at the airport this year. Over the years, that money has been spent on maintenance and safety systems, runway lighting and expansion of the airport’s apron. One of the goals for the airport is to have serviced lots at the location, so businesses which can benefit from airport access will be able to set up shop in the area. Pearen notes that there are interested parties, and what needs to happen is to have the expanded apron implemented as well as plan where it makes the most sense to develop those businesses in the vicinity of the airport. “There are two areas that the airport is looking at for expansion, and we have tenants that are looking to start construction once that is secured.” Much of the money has also gone to safety, and that continues this year with new security fencing. It’s mostly animals that they intend to keep out of the airport, but Pearen says that the goal is to make a location that’s safe for any aircraft. Yorkton has been the largest recipient of the CAP funding over the program’s history, something Pearen says is a credit to city administration and the work they have done to apply for grants and demonstrate what the city’s airport needs to stay viable. “It’s been used as a template for other communities. We are very proud of our staff and the work they do to maintain this.” Pearen says that there are plans in the works for the airport, plans that extend far into the future, but that funding from CAP is a way to keep those plans on track. “We know there is a lot more to be done, and we know that with more traffic and development that will happen too.”

Spring Education Awards give out $16,635 By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Health Foundation and TD Canada Trust have been supporting the education of health professionals in the area for the past 16 years with the annual Education Awards. This spring saw $16,637 worth of awards being paid out, with half of the funds being paid by TD Bank. Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation, says many of the awards are going to nurses improving their skills, getting a bachelor of Nursing or a Masters of Nursing. He also notes that they try to encourage conferences in the city, so that an educator can reach the maximum number of students and professionals don’t have to leave the area to improve their skills. They also fund equipment for educational
purposes. This program has gone on to inspire similar programs in other communities. Les Arnelien, Branch Manager for TD Canada Trust says it’s because the program itself meets two of the main areas TD focuses on when giving back to the community, health and education. “We were one of the first communities to start this, and over the past 15 years we have given out $170,000 worth of donations to the Scholarship fund... We recognize how important it is to give back to the communities and how important education is to our residents in Yorkton and area.” The recipients of TD Bank Financial Group’s scholarship awards are: Jocelyn Robinson, of Esterhazy. Tera Walsh, of Bredenbury. Dan Wlock, of
Yorkton. Tania Meadows, of Yorkton. The recipients of The Health Foundation’s scholarship awards are: Cosmin Coltea, of Yorkton. Loretta Erhardt, of Togo. Sheri Ferris, of Ebenezer. Candice Nelson, of Norquay. Justin Ruf, of Canora. Suzel Spykerman, of Yorkton. Sandra Sutter, of Springside. Sylvia Airey, of Yorkton. Brittany Dempsey, of Foam Lake. Megan Husak, of Yorkton. Shallaine Kelly, of Canora. Dawn Kennedy, of Preeceville. Sheri MacGillivray, of Kamsack. There is an award for a workshop that will be held in 2016:
Sharon Clark will coordinate an Infection Prevention & Control workshop which is designed to improve
infection control practices in healthcare facilities. In addition an award has been made to
Jacqueline Gotengco, with the Cornerstone Therapies Stroke program for the purchase of a SaeboGlove.

Celebrate city parks By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
It’s Parks and Recreation Month in the City of Yorkton, so it makes sense to celebrate the city’s parks and the many things that people can do within them. That was the goal of the recent Party in the Park, hosted for the first time at the Ravine Ecological Reserve. Lisa Washington with Community Development Parks and Recreation says that their goal with the party this year was to highlight different low
or no-cost entertainment that people can have in the city’s parks. To that end, the city brought out inexpensive backyard games, information on how to safely go hunting, as well as getting the Yellowhead Flyway Birding Trail Association to bring out information on the wildlife that can be found in the area. Ducks Unlimited and the Assiniboine Watership S t e w a r d s h i p Association brought information on what is within the park itself. “We try to bring people into new parks to see what we do have,
and take advantage of no cost recreation.” Taking it to the Ravine Ecological Reserve was part of the goal of getting people into under-used parks in the city. Washington notes that there is some work that needs to be done in the setting, such as replacing the bridge that was damaged a few years ago, but that’s also part of the reason why it’s important that people know Ravine is there and available to use. “It’s a beautiful setting, I think it’s not taken advantage of as much as it should be.”
FOOTBALL JAMBOREE – Yorkton Minor Football’s spring league is a more casual taste of football for kids and a way to keep skills up for up and coming young players.June 18 saw teams from within Yorkton, as well as from Preeceville, Canora, Kamsack, Wakaw come down for the six a side Football Jamboree at Century Field. The program is meant to give kids a chance for kids to learn the fundamentals of football as well as have lots of fun doing it explains Jason Boyda, coach with Yorkton Minor Football.

Farrell awards first Community Scholarship By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
The Farrell Agencies Community Scholarship gives students a chance to prove their dedication to their communities and get $5,000 towards their future. The first winner of the scholarship is Kaitlyn Kitzan, a Grade 12 student at Sacred Heart High School. Jason Farrell says that the inspiration behind the scholarship is to get people, especially graduating students, to think about the communities where they live. “People use community the time, but I am not sure how many people spend the time thinking about what community actually is, what it means, how they’re a part of it and what they can do to improve it.”
The essay that won the award answered two questions. One, what does community mean to you? Two, how will you in your next phase of life make your community a better place? Farrell says that she won the award because of her clear understanding of what community is and what she can do to improve it. For her part, Kitzan admits she was shocked to receive the scholarship, and hopes that she is able to continue being a community-minded person. “I’ve really dedicated my four years of high school to being the most community minded person possible. I’m really looking forward to the years to come and how I can make my community a better place.” Kitzan’s scholarshipwinning submission is
as follows: Coming from a small community, Theodore, I have been raised in a very community-minded way. Community means to me a group of people working towards a common goal. Community is about “belonging” and a place that supports me and other citizens in many different ways. I believe strongly that no matter the size of a community, it’s the people and their dedication and commitment that makes a community and its network viable. Since a young age, I have been involved with various organizations within my local community of Theodore and Yorkton. Through the years I have been very active within my school. I believe it’s important to stay involved in order for a community to
thrive. Even though I will be going to the U of S this fall, enrolled in the College of Agriculture, I look forward to returning to volunteer with the organizations and events that I am presently involved with now. That includes the Yorkton Exhibition, Ministry of Agriculture, Theodore Recreation Association, and many other organizations. In the future, I see myself in my career, returning to my community and taking more leadership roles with local organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, sporting events and teams, 4-H, and other worth while groups. I look forward to continue being an active member within this community, and working towards making our community a better place to live.
Cardinals meet with kids at St. Paul’s
A love of sport starts young, and the Yorkton Cardinals have met to teach young kids about baseball and connect with the youth in the city. Team members were at St. Paul’s Elementary School to teach basic skills to students. Derek Marshall, player with the Yorkton Cardinals, says that the team wanted to give back to the community in new ways, and by meeting kids in the community they hoped to get more young people interested in the sport and into playing it themselves. “That’s what it’s all about, teaching kids that baseball is a fun game to play.” The afternoon focused on teaching kids different skills, including catching, pitching and hitting, before the day ended with a quick game between students.
“Teaching the fundamentals is always the best as early as possible. It makes it easier to become elite as you get older if you want to continue playing baseball. I have found that the fundamentals of baseball can help in a lot of different sports as well.” This was a homecoming for Marshall, who spent his elementary school days in St. Paul’s, and he hopes that baseball can be important to today’s kids as it was when he was their age. “I know since I’ve been younger, baseball has declined a little bit, I want to try to get it back to being a big sport in town.” The plan seems to be working, as even kids who were not always baseball fans were excited by the visit and by learning about the sport. Alle Shivac was one of the kids at the event, and admits that she was nervous about playing, if only because she didn’t know very much about the sport.
“Once I started, it’s really fun.” Shivac says that now that she’s had more experience with the sport, she hopes to get down to some Cardinals games in the near future. Kaleb Larsen celebrated his birthday on the day that the Cardinals came, and says it was exciting to have the team come
down on the day. “I was excited that they were going to come and wanted to learn new things about how to play baseball.” Larsen says that one of the highlights was learning how to pitch properly. He says that after learning more he is a bit more of a baseball fan and wants to keep closer track of the sport in the future.

C-14: Let the pain continue So, Canada has a new assisted dying law… sort of. It may, in fact, become one of those cases of a government trying to be everything to everybody and ending up being nothing to no one. Kay Carter and Gloria Taylor, the two terminally ill women, for whom the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association (BCCLA) challenged the old law, died long before the Supreme Court ruled on the issue in February 2015. Carter, according to her sister, died happy with a smile on her face because she was able to go to Switzerland and get medical assistance to end her life. Taylor succumbed to her ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), by all accounts a horrific and undignified way to go. “To take ALS to the end, my wonderful mother spent her last two years on a ventilator, crying silently for hours every day,” wrote Christine Palmer, an advocate for the American state of Oregon’s Death with Dignity legislation. “Because of the long years of inactivity (she lived for six years from the onset of symptoms), she developed so much fluid buildup (edema) in her extremities, that her skin cracked and broke, leaving the fluids seeping from her bloated body. I’m sorry for the graphic description, but that’s what happens at end stage ALS.” In its decision, Canada’s Supreme Court ruled “competent adults with enduring, intolerable suffering who clearly consent to ending their lives,” should have the right to ask a physician for help. While the Supreme Court’s decision left the door wide open for sweeping change, Parliament’s new law is so restrictive as to be almost no change at all. In a nutshell, to be eligible for medically-assisted death, a patient must meet the Court’s criteria, plus their “natural” death must be “reasonably foreseeable.” In other words, people who have already intolerably suffered, sometimes for years, maybe even decades. Here’s the thing, the Liberals got themselves elected on the foundation, at least partially, of “evidence-based law-making.” And, in the previous Parliament, they condemned the Conservatives, relentless and rightfully, for passing unconstitutional laws. All of the evidence in this case points to passing a much less restrictive law. That evidence is compelling and includes the case by the legal team that successfully argued the Carter v. Canada case; the Supreme Court’s judgment, which was based on the Carter evidence; the recommendations of a provincial and territorial special task force; the report of the government’s own parliamentary committee; and amendments to the bill made by the Senate. It has also been argued that Kay Carter, one of the women whom the Supreme Court determined should have had the right to assisted dying, would not be eligible under the new law’s criteria. Finally, while the issue was in limbo, even lower courts rebuked the federal government’s interpretation of Carter. In a recent ruling, the Alberta Court of Appeal blocked a federal government intervention in an assisted dying case saying, “nowhere in [Carter] is the right to physician assisted death expressly limited only to those who are terminally ill or near the end of life.” The Liberals, except for four MPs who voted Nay, and 13 Conservatives, completely ignored all of that and passed a law that is almost certainly going to be proved unconstitutional in the future. Why, for example, did the government refuse to refer the legislation to the Supreme Court? Probably because they are rightfully afraid it would be thrown out there. And how Stephen Harper-esque does that make Justin Trudeau look right now? With Harper, though, the behaviour was in service of ideology. With Trudeau, it appears to be more of a need to please everybody, thus pleasing nobody and crafting poor legislation. Senator Mike Duffy called it a “Canadian compromise.” Of course, compromise has two senses: ‘settling a dispute by mutual concession’ and ‘accepting a standard that is lower than desirable.’ This legislation does the former by conceding ground to the non-evidence-based demands of the anti-choice movement. It does the latter by complying with the Supreme Court’s order to craft a new law, but providing an inadequate one. The government has said it is a balancing act between respecting rights and protecting vulnerable people. It does neither. And so, while there is a new law on the books, the suffering and the legal battles of those seeking a dignified death will continue.
Three wheels could be green The province of Saskatchewan now allows for three-wheeled vehicles to be operated on its streets and highways. It’s not a big deal, the market for the products is going to be very niche, whether someone is picking out a deliberately primitive Morgan or the state-of-the-art Polaris Slingshot it’s clearly a kind of leisure vehicle. It’s also not exactly a wide open market, drivers have to wear helmets and you can’t take your kids along, as all passengers need to be over seven. In most cases, these are also very much leisure vehicles, often motorcycles for people with poor balance. They don’t have to meet the safety standards of your standard four-wheeled car, and this is also partially the point, since it’s something a little bit more extreme than a regular car. We can argue that this won’t make much of a difference. It’s not a market that a lot of people will be participating in, since it’s difficult to justify having a three-wheeled car for your only vehicle. There will be plenty of people who want one for the idea of driving purity, something like a motorcycle but you can sit down. It’s going to be taken advantage by very few people, but the idea seems to be that they want to drive models that are best on the track. This should also be seen as great news for green end of the province’s motoring population, whether or not they realize it at the moment. Yes, a lot of the three wheeled cars are aimed as simple performance vehicles, stuff that uses a relatively lax amount of safety regulation to be lighter and faster. But losing weight isn’t just good for a performance car. Let’s say you take one of these three-wheeled vehicles, pull out the traditional motorcycle engine and instead fill it with batteries and an electric motor. Suddenly you have a green vehicle that really anyone can drive, that could cost significantly less than your standard electric model or, if one takes a more performance-oriented approach, can be developed into a performance electric. Morgan has already done this with their own three-wheeler, using electrons where internal combustion would otherwise reside. Yes, there are be companies that try to take advantage of the less stringent safety requirements in order to try to make a quick buck – the short-lived Zap Xebra, since recalled because the brakes fitted didn’t actually stop the car, is one example of what can happen – but an enterprising entrepreneur could more easily enter the market with a three wheeled niche electric than a traditional, more heavily regulated four-wheeled car. We should encourage them, especially as for a lot of people a small commuter powered by batteries would make a great deal more sense than driving something full sized to work every day. It’s a niche
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger product, but with the possibility of three wheeled cars out there, it’s the kind of thing that a lot of commuters could embrace. It makes more sense than a motorcycle, since it’s similar to how people drive already and the extra wheel ads some stability. But it could also be used to make something cheap for an extra vehicle. When most electric vehicles go in excess of $30,000, it would be handy to have a much cheaper alternative. But we live in Saskatchewan, and in Saskatchewan we have an active oil industry and an even more active suspicion surrounding anything that isn’t powered by burning dead dinosaurs. This isn’t a market that has embraced electric power, and I’ve encountered resistance to the idea from people charged with actually selling electric cars. While making a low-cost three wheeled electric might seem relatively low risk, it’s also something that would face an uphill battle in a province. But the idea of a low-cost, stripped down commuter is still an interesting idea if you’re putting in a small gas-powered motor. Remember, light weight, and the less weight you have to carry the less fuel you need to use. Even equipped with some kind of traditional internal combustion engine a little three wheeler is going to be using less gas overall, and that’s something that consumers can embrace. These three-wheeled cars aren’t as safe as your regular car, but if we’re talking about driving efficiency, they’re a compelling idea as a way to get two and from work. As cities around the world try to limit the amount of internal combustion traffic in their city centers, it becomes an interesting way to get people who can’t afford a full-sized electric to continue to be able to access the downtown of those places. Saskatchewan cities might never consider drastic moves taken by other centers to limit that traffic, but Saskatchewan drivers could still benefit from a cheaper, cleaner little runabout that they’re never really going to take on the highway or drive particularly fast. A lot of the three-wheeler hype has surrounded the performance models, but for the rest of us, we might be able to get an interesting, efficient way to get to work in the morning.

The heart of the scorpion
Size is a relative thing. To a flea, an ant is big. To an ant, we are big. To us, an elephant is big. The largest thing we normally have any interaction with is the Earth. Although we cannot see it directly, spending six or more hours in a cramped seat on a flight to Europe gives us some idea of the size. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll know the two bright lights in the south east after dark are Mars and Saturn; the first a little smaller than the Earth, and Saturn quite a bit larger. But, the winner
in size of things we can see, is the Sun, with a radius 109 times that of our planet. Speaking of Mars and Saturn, 6 degrees (3-4 fingers) below and a little right of Saturn lies the red star Antares, about the same brightness as Saturn but red like Mars. Translating into ‘Heart of the Scorpion’, Antares is a supergiant star lying at the heart of the constellation Scorpius. The 16th brightest star in the sky, it can be seen low in the south from late March through August. Near its brightest now, it is

years, it will run out of material to burn, and will explode in a massive supernova and collapse. Luckily, the star is 640 light years away, so its effect on us would only be a really good light show (in fact, it could have already happened; at that distance, light from the

event would take six and a half centuries to get here). The story would be much different if Antares existed where the Sun does, because compared to the Sun, Antares is big. If Antares lay at our Sun’s position, its surface would extend past the first four planets of our solar system, out to a distance a little beyond Mars. Exactly when it exploded would be irrelevant, because we would not be here; any planets that once existed in the vicinity of Antares would have been incinerated millions of years ago. From a country sky, if
you have good eyesight (or binoculars) and look a finger width to the right of Antares, you would see a fuzzy patch classified as a globular cluster and commonly referred to as Messier 4. Compared to M4, Antares is a flea (and a story best left for another article). To us, Antares is so big we can not even properly picture it, and M4 so unusual, you have to see it in a telescope to believe it. ‘Tis a wondrous master plan that makes such an interesting universe accessible from your own back yard, should you only choose to look.

Your letter of the Week Senate feasts on Trudeau’s assisted dying bill To the Editor: Some of us aren’t enthusiastic about assisted dying. Although, in the case of the Senate, we will happily make an exception and assist. The Senate - that undemocratic, unaccountable, unwanted monstrosity that has affixed itself to the side of Parliament like an ermine-garbed parasite - is in the news again. And, yet again, for all the wrong reasons. Late last week, senators took it upon themselves to gut the Trudeau government’s Bill C-14, on assisted dying. They had no mandate to do so, they had no authority to do so. But they did so, just the same. The senators’ concerns are irrelevant, just like they are. To debate the merits of their changes is to accord them a modicum of legitimacy. We shouldn’t do it. C-14 has had a troubled history, true. For the comparatively new Liberal government, it has been the Flying Dutchman of legislation never yet making it to shore, and a portent of bad luck for all who come near it. C-14 was the cause of Justin Trudeau’s terrible night, when he manhandled a Conservative and
elbowed a New Democrat. C-14 was the reason the Liberals initially sought to give themselves extraordinary powers in the Commons, with the innocuous-sounding Motion 6 and then the reason they thereafter beat a hasty retreat, frantically withdrawing the aforementioned Motion 6. (Looking autocratic and weak, all in the same session. Hard to do.) C-14 was the cause of acrimonious splits in caucus, and deep division within the broader Grit family. C-14 provided evidence, too, that the government could not manage its legislative affairs or meet a Supreme Court deadline. And, now, C-14 has become the payback platform for assorted senators: the Conservative ones, who have been waiting for an opportunity to rain all over Trudeau’s honeymoon; and the Liberal ones - the ones Trudeau kicked out of his caucus without warning - to teach him a lesson, and to exact sweet revenge. Like we say: C-14 has been the cause of more trouble than it probably is worth. There is a theory, of course, that machiavellian Grits foresaw all of this difficulty, and wanted C-14 to run ashore. It was the plan all along,
say some. As with the abortion legislative void, nothing was better than something. Don’t believe it. Trudeau would not do what he did - and his government would not risk all that it risked - for mere show. It was no parliamentary pantomime. The government wanted to meet the high court’s absurdlyshort deadline, and it did all that it could to hasten the Bill’s passage. It was authentic. The Senate, lacking both authenticity and wisdom, ended any hope of that. So now what? The C-14 rush was probably as unseemly as it was unnecessary. Doctors have been quietly practising euthanasia in Canada for many years. I say that as the son of a doctor - one who was sometimes asked to do it, and one who was awarded the Order of Canada for his writings about it. The government’s haste was also a waste of energy. The senators (Conservatives, former Liberals, and Liberals who refuse to acknowledge that they are Liberals) were always going to scupper C-14. Any fool could see that. They weren’t interested in sober second thought. Their objective was to cause trouble, and cause trouble they did.
The objections some of us had to this bill remain. Who decides, exactly, who should die? What is terminal? If we have yet to define life, how can we say for certain when life lacks value? Isn’t euthanizing the mentally ill what that moustachioed Bavarian fellow did? Is there any better oxymoron that a “mature minor?” And so on. Trudeau’s C-14 was a sincere, wellmeaning and carefully crafted compromise. It was also profoundly unlucky. It’s time to try again - this time, one hopes, without the bad luck, the divisions, the parliamentary brinkmanship and the flying elbows. Oh, and the Senate. We could do without that, too. But, like death itself, we are unlikely to be rid of its foul presence anytime soon. Troy Media columnist Warren Kinsella is a Canadian journalist, political adviser and commentator.

Time to once more go full-on ‘Rider green
In terms of sport this is one of my favourite times of year. I am a diehard Canadian Football League fan. It is my league, in my country, and I watch as many games as possible over the course of the season (love the DVR for that). Of course I bleed green in terms of the Saskatchewan Roughriders, although admittedly the last couple of seasons have been trying as a fan to say the least. The Corey Chamblin debacle finally game to an overdue end mid-way
through last season after proving the team had been successful based on talent and the leadership of quarterback Darian Durant and not because of Chamblin and his ill-placed arrogance in terms of what he was. Durant of course has been hurt for most of the last two seasons, a definite factor in the dismal on-field results by the team. It didn’t help Chamblin saw Tino Sunseri as a viable option at pivot in Durant’s absence. So the team imploded, the effort faded, and fans laboured through two abysmal seasons.
Sports View From the Couch by Calvin Daniels That as they say is history, although the scars on fans’ psyches remain rather fresh. This season begins the regime of Chris Jones. Expectations are high as Jones righted a floundering
Edmonton ship in a season, and eventually won the Grey Cup with that franchise last November. Now we expect the same from Jones in Riderville. And that my friend’s is a tall order.

Driving Safety Tips: • Plan ahead, remain focused with a positive attitude, and refrain from any form of distracted driving including use of a mobile device while driving. • Ensure seatbelts are in proper working condition. Children should be secured properly in car or booster seats. • Slow to 60 km/hr on Saskatchewan highways when passing emergency responders including tow truck operators, and ambulance or law enforcement personnel assisting other motorists on our highways. • Be alert for construction zones and obey the posted speed limits. • Carry a fully-charged cell phone for emergency purposes only and appoint a passenger to manage your phone and satellite navigation
needs. • Pack a vehicle safety kit available at all CAA Saskatchewan Stores or on-line. Also have nonperishable food and water on hand for all vehicle passengers. • Pull over when safe to do so, to make phone calls, text or review maps. • Gas prices are easily accessible via the CAA app & CAA Gas Price Monitor. • Never drink and drive. Automotive & Recreation Vehicle Tips: • Have your vehicle inspected prior to travelling to ensure your vehicle is in top operating condition and to avoid breakdowns during your summer travels. • If unexpected breakdowns do occur, be sure to have access to a roadside assistance provider like CAA. The CAA Mobile App is also available to access roadside service or for CAA Member benefits including TripTiks, tour books and maps. Ask about travel insurance as well. • The tires are one of the most important items. Check for adequate
tread depth, uneven tread wear, bulges, cuts, and other tire damage, and proper tire inflation. Signs of tire problems include a side-to-side wobble at slow speeds; an increased shimmy or vibration at highway speeds; a sharp pull to the side; weaving or fishtailing. • Also check the brake fluid, the coolant and oil plus window washer fluids. • Remember to check radiator hoses, examine belts, and check proper belt tension, as well as the windshield wipers. • Vehicle batteries should also be checked and this can be easily completed at the CAA Care Centre, Regina Battery Depot, or at any CAA Approved Auto Repair Service. • The wheels on recreation vehicles, boat trailers and camper trailers should be checked as well. The wheel lug nuts need to be set to the proper torque to make sure they do not come loose or come off the trailer. Wheel bearings should be greased and adjusted annually and trailer suspension springs also need to be inspected for wear.
Jones has not been shy in changing the personnel on the team, and given the lack of effort often shown by the team last season, the moves were needed and justified. That said, football more than any of the other ‘bigfour’ pro team sports in North America, relies on a ‘team’ chemistry. Who blocks who, and how they do it, is integral to receivers running routes, and precise routes allow a quarterback to know where his targets are. The more changes within the units; offence, defence and special teams, the more time it may take for those unites to jell into a consistent winning football. And of course there is there question of Durant. The quarterback is 33, and hasn’t played real-time football in nearly two years. Does he still have what it takes to win? You would like to think so. It would be a great story if he can return triumphant. And, if he doesn’t the projects turn dismal in a hurry. Who is B.J. Coleman? Phillip Sims? Sorry no one knows, at least in terms of CFL football. It can be argued back-up quarterbacks are not the position fans should worry about because they can’t be expected to win. That is in essence correct. Back-ups rarely take you to a Grey Cup party, but credible back-ups can keep you entertaining and competitive. British Columbia has
the tandem of Travis Lulay and Jonathon Jennings, Edmonton Mike Reilly / James Franklin; Calgary Bo Levi Mitchell / Drew Tate and Winnipeg Drew Willy / Matt Nichols, all more credible one/two tandems than the Riders to start the campaign. Add to Durant’s issues an almost completely new receiver corps with no established rapport to draw on, and uncertainty in terms of a carry-the-mail running back as a relief valve, and the offence is going to trace time to click. The ‘Rider offence was a train wreck last year, especially the defensive backfield. Junes is noted as a defensive genius, so expect better, but that may be mid-season better, not immediate. The Roughies struggled in pre-season but that means nothing. Week one the team gets the bye, so Jones has essentially an extra week of training camp to work with, a good thing as they work on chemistry. The team finally hits the field when it matters June 30, in Regina against Toronto, the team is somewhat the same boat as the ‘Riders, an experienced star pivot, Ricky Ray, coming back after injury, with no credible back-up. Week 3 though is the telltale one to start the season. Jones leads his new charges into Edmonton against Reilly, the Grey Cup champs, and his former team. It will be the first litmus test to see if the Roughriders can be competitive in the CFL West.

Getting a handle on your ant problem
Ants are synonymous with picnics and pants. And for some, that list also includes their yard, where they may have invaded the lawn, garden and patio/driveway/sidewalk. Despite their reputation, ants have a good side. Their tunneling improves soil aeration and improves drainage. While they may be small, because of their sheer number, they turn over more soil than earthworms. Ants are attracted not only to sweets, they also consume proteins and attack other insects. But when their numbers are out of control, they become a nuisance. In the lawn, there’ll be raised mounds with sparse to no grass growth. In patios and sidewalks, you’ll see small mounds of sand or fine soil along cracks. Ants also create trails to and from sugary food sources (nectar, aphid colonies). To fight them, it is best to follow the advice of Sun Tzu, legendary Chinese philosopher, warrior and military strategist: know thyself, know thy enemy, a thousand battles, a thousand victories. There are nearly 90 ant species in Saskatchewan. The ones found in your lawn, garden and paved areas are likely to be small and black to reddish brown. They prefer dry locations and generally tunnel in loose soil or sand. Like their close relatives, wasps, they are social insects and form colonies with a queen and several thousand workers. When looking to control, concentrate on the nest itself and their trails. Since ants do provide some beneficial services, encouraging them to move is your first and easiest tactic. A combination of repeatedly raking their mound (regular disturbance) and irrigating more frequently (making them uncomfortable) may do the trick. If they don’t take the hint, bring in the reinforcements: plants flowers, shrubs and trees to
attract birds (who will thank you for the free meal). Ramping up to the next level, pour boiling water over the nest. This will kill hundreds to thousands of workers and if the water penetrates deeply enough, it may get the queen as well. If nothing else, it may encourage them to move elsewhere. Be aware that boiling water will also kill your lawn. For stubborn situations, you may have to bring in bigger guns – registered pesticides. Read the label carefully and follow all instructions to the letter to protect yourself, your children and pets. Start with diatomaceous earth (silicone dioxide), the least toxic option. It is composed of microscope diatoms – fossilized hard-shelled algae. It is a registered pesticide but is not toxic to animals. Instead, it is an abrasive powder and when ants come in contact, it scratches their exoskeleton and they literally dry up. Often, the diatomaceous earth product contains an attractant to encourage ants to check it out. Apply over the nest or where ants congregate. Because it is such a fine powder, wear a facemask to avoid breathing it in. It is otherwise safe for children and pets once applied. Many registered ant pesticides contain borax (liquid, gel, powder), usually combined with an attractant into a bait which ants pick up and take back to the nest and eventually to feed to their queen. This is your ultimate goal: kill the queen and you kill the colony. Borax is toxic to you, your children, pets, other animals and plants. Most labels promise that the nest will be killed within seven days. Products containing pyrethrins are usually considered relatively safe since they are derived from plants, are biodegradable and have low human toxicity. It’s insec-
Temporary road access to Trades & Technology Centre
A temporary access road is being built around Parkland College’s Trades and Technology Centre as part of the City of Yorkton’s Dracup Avenue North Reconstruction Project. The City says the project will enter its final phase on Wednesday, June 22. This phase includes a temporary service road from the Dracup Avenue/ Dunlop Street intersection to the Trades and Technology Centre. The new detour runs east from the intersection and turns north, providing access to the east side of the facility. The City estimates the detour and temporary road may be used through early August. Anyone with questions or concerns about access to the College
should contact the Public Works office at 306.786.1760. About Parkland College: Parkland College strives to help students in East Central Saskatchewan achieve their goals and build the foundation for successful careers. Students can choose from a wide array of educational options, including university degrees, skills training diplomas and certificates, trades training, high school upgrading, safety training, and corporate/ professional development. Parkland College is a learner-centered organization and is proud to be one of Saskatchewan’s Top Employers for 2016.
ticidal and insect repellent properties have been known for centuries. Pyrethroids, synthetic pyrethrin (usually as d-trans allethrin), have similar properties but may accumulate in environment. Pyrethrin (not pyrethroid) is considered an organic pesticide when not combined with piperonyl butoxide. Other registered ant pesticides contain one or more of the following: carbaryl (Sevin), permethrin, and abamectin. You may also find pyrethroids in combination with these chemicals. They are available in various forms: liquid, spray, pressurized foams and solid (spike). While less damaging to plants, they are toxic to
animals (including your precious children and pets). Apply as per label instructions and take all recommended precautions.

out the average rental price via online forums or even online newspaper classified sections. Find out if people tend to live with roommates or go it alone in the city you’re relocating to. If you are moving to a city where you know very few people or no one at all, consider becoming someone’s roommate. The right roommate can provide an instant social network and help you learn the ropes of your adopted home. If you plan to live alone and rent, recognize that many landlords will require a guarantor before renting to tenants with no income. • Don’t be shy. Unless you are moving to a place where you already have a built-in social network, you should expect to encounter some loneliness upon arriving in your new location. Resolve to make the most of all your new home has to offer by joining a social organization, connecting with your university’s alumni group or volunteering with local charities. If you have a job lined up, sign up for company-sponsored outings or teams. Relocating to a new city can produce mixed feelings of anxiety and excitement. Planning ahead and doing some homework can help you as you transition to your new home.

People relocate for various reasons. Many relocate for professional opportunities, while others relocate to pursue their educations. And while some may relocate to enjoy a lower cost of living, others may find themselves relocating to satisfy their sense of adventure. Regardless of why a person is relocating, doing so without preparing for the move can make the transition that much more difficult. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, roughly 19 percent of the 35.9 million people one year and over who moved between 2012 and 2013 did so for a job-related reason. Relocating to a new city for a job is different than moving from one home to another within the same community. Relocating to a new city can be a life-changing event that requires planning and maybe even a little luck to make it work. • Examine your finances. Moving is expensive, and it can be even more expensive when moving to an entirely new city. If you are moving to pursue career opportunities but don’t yet have a job offer in hand, examine your finances and work out a worst-case scenario in the event that your job hunt takes longer than you hoped for. Unless you have a benefactor who can help you pay your bills and avoid debt while you look for a job, make sure you have several months’ worth of living expenses saved up before moving. • Research the job market. Certain cities have more opportunities for people in certain fields than others, so make sure the city you plan to relocate to is a place where you will have ample opportunities in your chosen line of work. Otherwise you might find yourself settling for a career you don’t like or relocating again to a job market more accommodating to someone in your field. • Research the real estate market. Before hitting the road and heading for your new home, research the real estate market in that area. Try to find
