Standing up for Sask.’s producers – restrictions limit opportunities The Government of Saskatchewan is challenging the Government of Quebec’s restrictions that prevent the sale of certain margarines, coffee whiteners and dessert toppings in the Quebec market. These restrictions, says Minister responsible for Trade Tim McMillan, deny market opportunities for western oilseed producers and processors. Saskatchewan’s challenge will be considered on January 8 by a dispute resolution panel, established under the pan-Canadian Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT), at a public hearing in Quebec City. The Saskatchewanled challenge is supported by the governments of Alberta, British Columbia and Manitoba. “Saskatchewan believes in free trade, and our government is committed to knocking down barriers that harm our farmers,” McMillan states. “We believe that these illegal restrictions in Quebec contravene rules that prohibit governments from creating barriers to trade in Canada.”
“Our government is committed to expanding both international and domestic market access for our producers,” Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart adds. “The Quebec market represents new growth opportunities for our Saskatchewan products and we will stand up for our producers and processors to ensure they are not discriminated against by unfair trade rules.” “We are pleased that Saskatchewan, along with the other western provinces, is showing leadership in tackling barriers to trade in Canada,” Vegetable Oil Industry of Canada President Sean McPhee says. “Our members look forward to the time when vegetable oilbased alternatives to dairy products can be manufactured and sold in all parts of Canada.” In June, the provincial government formally requested the establishment of a dispute resolution panel to determine if the restrictions by Quebec contravene the AIT. A ruling by this panel is expected by the end of March 2014.

Examining floating rate funds Investors are yield hungry and that desire is not likely to diminish anytime soon. According to Canaccord Genuity analysts the number of baby boomers in the Canadian population is expected to increase almost two-fold, reaching 39% over the next 15 years. Not surprisingly, they want low volatility, income-producing investments. Particular focus has been on fixed income. With the likelihood of increased rates in the not-too-distant future, investors are seeking products that can provide protection while still generating a reliable yield. Some have looked to mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) focused on floating rate loans. These products have drawn considerable interest in recent years, but are often misunderstood. As their name denotes, these funds invest in floating rate loans. They are debt instruments whose coupon rates vary based on a predetermined spread above a benchmark rate that is regularly reset. The most commonly used benchmark is the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), which is essentially the average rate that the most creditwor-
Financial freedom by Kim Inglis
www.reynoldsinglis.ca thy international banks will lend to each other. The current attraction to floating rate funds, and their major advantage, is their low sensitivity to interest rate changes. Since the loans have a floating rate they are not subject to the same kind of pricing risk as a bond in a rising rate environment. However, neither will they gain much when rates decline. There is some rationale that floating rate funds may perform well over the near term. According to BlackRock, bank loans have tended to do much better than higher-quality fixed income over the last three Fed tightening cycles. Floating rate funds also offer attractive relative yields and, currently, many have yields comparable to high yield bonds. Floating rate funds are not without risk. Like bonds, they are subject to credit risk although their claim on
the company’s capital structure ranks higher, so recovery on default tends to be better. BlackRock estimates the default rate for loans over the next two to three years to be roughly half the 4% average recorded over the last 20 years. They also point to a Moody’s study, which found that recoveries in the same period averaged approximately 80% and did not deviate appreciably in the past three market downturns. Floating rate funds are not meant to be a core holding but rather can play a complementary role in portfolio diversification. They have historically experienced low correlation with stocks and investment grade bonds, which helps lower the risk profile of a fixed income portfolio, an important aspect to consider when guarding against rising rates. In their quest for yield investors need to be

mindful that these products are complicated and due diligence is essential. They should look for answers to important questions such as a fund’s compatibility with their risk tolerance; fund liquidity and the ability to exit in a timely fashion; the investment grade of the loans; the fund manager’s experience in this asset class; and the fees, which are diverse.

Predictions of weather, wealth, sports and perpetual beefs Ed, my neighbor next door, celebrated the New Year’s Eve in style. He and Ruby always host a party that ushers out the old year, like a greased pig, and the New Year in like a newly hatched gosling. Ed says there that is no hanging on to an old year as it is as slippery as a greased pig. The New Year comes in like a gosling that just pecked its way out of the egg. That goose tends to act out of control until about the end of April. By then, those who have made it through the winter will have renewed hope for the rest of the year. At their party, Ed gave his predictions for 2014, which he claims his family and friends consider well worth memorizing for reference during the coming year. I have suggested that Ed just type them up, so they have a copy for reference, but he claims they need to be passed by word of mouth since they are almost restricted information. In Ed’s weather fore-
Neighborly Advice According to Ed by Raymond Maher www.accordingtoed.com cast for the year, he predicted that, in 2014, the winter will be seasonable, the spring will be late and wet, the summer will be dry and cool, the fall will be wet, and winter will come in October. The best crop to plant will be oats. Ed warned that, no one, should plant canola as the price will crumble in the coming year.” Ed’s prediction for sports was brief, another Grey Cup for the Roughriders in 2014. Ed warned about ‘March Madness.’ In March, money markets around the world will become as stable as, a flag blowing in the wind, and folks will put their money in their mattresses.
Workers’ Act proclaimed
The Workers’ Compensation Act, 2013 became law in Saskatchewan on January 1, 2014. “It increases benefits in a fiscally responsible manner and modernizes the language for ease of use. The Act addresses the recommendations of the 2010 Workers’ Compensation Act Committee of Review as well as the Government’s consultations on the recommendations,” details Labour Relations and Workplace Safety Minister Don Morgan. The new Act will contain provisions that include: • improving benefits for injured workers by increasing the maximum insurable earnings; • introduction of a system of indexation to ensure benefits are adjusted annually; • raising to $25,000 the level at which workers at age 65 years may choose a lump sum payment rather than an annuity; and, • providing the board with the ability to assess administrative penalties. The maximum wage
rate, the upper limit on earnings used for the calculation of benefits, will increase from $55,000 to $59,000 for new claims. The maximum wage rate was last increased in 2005. The new Act also contains an indexation formula based on increases to the average weekly wage. For more details visit: www.lrws.gov.sk.ca/labourlegislation.

Ed had to mention a couple of personal, perpetual beefs that he is sure won’t change in 2014. The old preacher next door won’t move, and highway to his farm will get even worse. So bad, in fact, he’ll have to put planks in the back of his truck, and use them to drive over the huge pot holes left from broken pavement. All in all, Ed predicts the coming year will be about as good as any year gets. I am not quite sure if that’s positive or not. I don’t put much stock in predictions for the New Year. I agree with
Peter Drucker when he said, “Trying to predict the future is like trying to drive down a country road at night with no lights while looking out the back window.” It is tempting to think we might be able to see into the future, but the Bible speaks of God being in control of the future, and we cannot know how it will play out. A key to confidence for the future is by remembering that God is good. A good, merciful, loving, almighty God is in control the future. The very God, who so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. God’s plans for 2014 are rich and satisfying. “I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”

Annual bird count: numbers down
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
The annual Christmas Bird Count sees bird watchers from throughout North America track bird populations in their own areas. Birdwatchers from the Yorkton area have been consistent contributors to the count, but while the watchers were willing, the birds were hard to find. This year saw significantly fewer birds, down nearly half from 2012. In total, 1,088 individuals and 18 species were spotted this year. Last year, there were 1,932 individuals and 27 species. Geoff Rushowick with the bird count says there were only a couple bright spots in the local populations. Two species saw an increase in numbers. Common ravens near-
ly doubled, with 411 spotted compared to 222 in 2012. Mostly spotted at the city dump, Rushowick expects that the ravens are filling a hole left after crows were chased from the city. The other big increase was the American Goldfinch, with 21 spotted compared to three in 2012. Rushowick says that it’s usually rare to see a single American Goldfinch in Yorkton, so having 21 spotted is a definite bright spot for this year’s count. Other common birds this year were the black-capped Chickadee at 168 spotted, and the house sparrow with 240 spotted. While the chickadee numbers are not too far off from last year, where 174 were counted, the house sparrows were at a third of 2012’s numbers, down from 624 last year. A big surprise was a lack of any
kind of redpolls. Last year saw 138 common redpolls spotted in the area, while 2013 did not see one. Rushowick says he expects the depressed numbers are due to an early-December cold snap, as a prolonged period of extreme cold may have done damage to the local populations. “I was talking with people with feeders, and they said that they had lots of birds before December, but when that cold snap came along a lot of them seemed to almost disappear.” The real test will be in 2014, Rushowick explains, which will show if this year’s numbers are an anomaly or part of a worrying trend. He says one year doesn’t make a count, but that he hopes that the birds come back next year.

The best New Year's resolution? Getting in shape It’s no secret that we often tend to lose our battle against the scale during the holiday season. Seduced by one delicious feast after another, many cast aside their healthy eating habits, as they feel they have earned the right to treat themselves over this period. This idea sets in as soon as the first decadent dish hits the table. Year after year, as the holidays draw to a close, we find ourselves with a few extra pounds and lots of good intentions for those New Year’s resolutions. Achieving our new objectives After the New Year’s festivities, it’s time to kick start our resolutions and renew our fitness program. In order to ensure this reintegration in our daily routine is a success, the key is to take things one step at a time. Why not start with simple actions? At the office, use the stairs instead of the elevator, or walk short distances instead of taking your car. Yoga is also an excellent choice, as it has several beneficial effects on overall health, such as resistance to fatigue, as well as improved blood pressure, digestion and blood flow. The goal here is to reintroduce physical activity gradually to avoid extreme fatigue and a loss of motivation. Vitamin-enhanced water to the rescue Add some flavour to your fitness routine. Karma Wellness Water, with its five delicious flavours – raspberry-guava jackfruit, orange-mango, acai-pomberry, passionfruit-green tea and pineapple-coconut – offers
essential vitamins. This health drink is naturally sweetened with a pinch of natural cane sugar and mostly with the natural and low carb stevia. The end result is both natural and only 20 calories in an entire 532 mL bottle. Karma Wellness Water is first and foremost natural spring water. The vitamins contained in the pro-
prietary KarmaCap do not lose any of their potency, as they are added to the water only upon consumption. Generally, water-soluble vitamins lose up to 50% of their beneficial effects after 90 days, due to exposure to UV rays, oxygen and heat. Our KarmaCap technology, consisting of a hermetically sealed cap, enables
the vitamins preserved in powder form to be released in the water with the push of a button. Now all that’s left is to gently shake the bottle, and your drink is ready. For more information, please visit: www.facebook.com/ drinkkarma www.drinkkarma.com www.newscanada.com
Fitness tips from people who have changed their lives Instead of drowning in a flood of diet and exercise advice from the Internet, take a look at this snapshot of three inspiring Canadians who have transformed their lives with basic good sense – and with a little guidance, they say, from the pros at GoodLife Fitness: Lindsey, from Abbotsford BC: Lindsey started her journey weighing 485 lbs. Her doctor gave her two recommendations: gastric bypass surgery, or diet and exercise. Lindsey decided to try exercise and felt that doing it as a group was fun and motivational. She lost 227 lbs. and transformed her life. Lindsey’s Tip: “My tip is to believe that anything is possible if you’re willing to take baby steps. Start small and work your way up,� Joanne, from Sudbury, Ontario: Afterexperiencing two strokes at the age of 19due to her weight, Joanne realized that changing her health was the key to changing her future. When she first joined GoodLife she felt uncomfortable with the other members , but then came to an important realization: “I decided to make a change in my thinking,� she said. “I went from envy or dislike to praise and respect; I began to look up to them.� Having lost 115
pounds, Joanne is now preparing for a bodybuilding competition. Joanne’s Tip: “If you’re going to start your own health and fitness journey, remember to tell yourself that there will be times that you are going to falter a little, and that’s okay. Old habits can stray you away from your goal, but knowing you will make it up means you are on the path to success.� Karen, from New Glasgow, Nova Scotia: Karen, a grandmother of 2, had chronic pain. Her goal was to lose weight, but she worried about additional pain from exercise. She started working with a personal trainer who showed her the importance of building muscle mass. After working together for six months, Karen lost 47 lbs. 36.5 inches, 14% body fat, and the pain in her body was significantly reduced. Karen’s Tip: “I think the key to this journey is to take one day or week at a time. You would like the weight to fall off immediately, but the reality is it takes time.� More information about these three inspiring stories can be found at: www. blog.goodlifefitness.com. www.newscanada.com
