Merry Christmas Yorkton!

Human services come together – new organization formed By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The human service agencies of Yorkton have a common goal, to ensure all members of the community are involved and supported in a healthy and safe community. As a result of this common interest, Yorkton Community Unity (YCU) has been founded to get different agencies together and John Denysek, a member of the group, says work started in May of 2012 and it has been a steady effort to get human services groups meeting, put together a website and handle bringing the different groups together. Denysek says that the main challenge in YCU is time management, since everyone has their separate workload, but it can be worked through. “Everybody has a sincere desire to help the community, so we make it fit and we make it work,” Denysek says. Getting all the agencies together is something that will help the people they serve, Denysek says, because it will allow interaction, collaboration and discussion on

different topics. “It’s going to bring more innovation in how we tackle various problems, and we’ll be more proactive. As Yorkton continues to grow, that introduces other social issues that we have to deal with as a community, and hopefully we will be a more proactive and innovative group as we share common ideas and approaches,” Denysek says. The group is also launching a website, which will be designed with two goals in mind. First, it will help the public connect with human services, giving a directory of different services provided in the area as well as how to access those services. The site will also have a members-only section where members of those services can carry on the work of the YCU, as they set targets and work to meet the community needs. “It’s a venue for brainstorming and collaboration,” Denysek says. The connection and communication between different agencies is something that is a natural fit. Continued on Page 3.

Communities linked: association formed By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer

PICTURE PERFECT – Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas little Haiden! Santa has been busy making his rounds this holiday season, getting out to as many communities as possible before making his long trek around the globe Christmas Eve. Above – looking pretty as a picture – baby Haiden, daughter of Amber Boyd and Kent Heise of Regina (and grand daughter of David Jay Boyd of Yorkton), gets her turn on busy Santa’s knee and it looks as though she’s enjoying every minute of it!

Yorkton City Council announced the formation of a new regional economic development association in the city that will help bridge surrounding communities, creating opportunity and development. At a recent meeting of the city’s Economic Development Committee a new regional association model was discussed and now the concept has been given the go ahead to unfold. “The recommended purpose of a Regional Economic Association (REA) is to re-establish the linkages with surrounding communities located with the 80 km radius, which have been broken due to the demise of the Saskatchewan East Enterprise Region,” said Faisal Anwar, Economic Development officer to council Monday evening. “It will also create opportunities for communities within this region to work together in fostering the process of sustainable regional economic development.” Anwar says the proposed association can be formed in four steps.

Care for the vulnerable The province has announced it will be directing an additional $17.34 million per year to front-line workers in Saskatchewan Association of Rehabilitation Centres’ (SARC) member agencies and other organizations providing critical services to vulnerable adults and children. With this announcement, government will begin to establish a consistent level of funding to organizations that deliver critical residential as well as direct daily care and in-home supports to adults with intellectual disabilities and/or mental health and addictions issues and children in need of protection. “For our government to achieve its goals of improving quality of life for all Saskatchewan people and making our province the best place for people with disabilities to live, we must invest in those who care for others every day,” Social Services Minister June Draude says. Funding of $17.34 million will be directed to front-line employees in eligible agencies funded by the ministries of Social Services and Health, allowing the organizations they work for to recruit and retain qualified staff. This includes organizations that support adults with mental health and addictions issues; groups that support children in need of protection and their families; and organizations that serve people with intellectual disabilities. The actual increase each worker will see will vary depending on his or her current position and wage. The increase is expected to range from $4,000 to $6,000 per year, targeted to the lowest-paid frontline workers. Eligible organizations will be asked to provide information on their current staff and wage levels, and to identify how they will direct the investment to their front-line workers. Money will be available after February 1, 2013.

CHANGE NOT WELCOME – The implementation of Bill C-45 across Canada is not being met with optimism amongst many First Nations groups. Bill C-45 proposes changes to management of reserve lands, changes to environmental protection and reviews for lakes and rivers. It also means the overhaul of the Indian Act and a loss of treaty rights. Across Canada protests are taking place to ensure the government is aware such changes, without consultations are not welcome. “The biggest part of this is that the government has decided to put those powers into place

without even consulting the indigenous people this is going to affect,” say protestors. In Yorkton a group gathered at City Centre Park this past Saturday. The federal government insists the bill is not about taking away rights but rather keeping up with growth. “What it’s doing is, like the rest of our budget, it’s focusing on being able to create jobs and growth and prosperity for all Canadians and that includes our First Nations — these changes don’t alter treaty rights or any land claims processes at all,” says Blake Richards, MP for Wild Rose, Alberta, adding that he held an

open house in the community earlier in the year that only two people attended. “It’s unfortunate they didn’t

take the opportunity to contact their member of parliament and let me know of their concerns.”

Be a champion of your health: Sunrise He’s a local sports hero and he’s doing his part to help create a healthier province. NHL hockey star, and former Yorkton resident, Jarret Stoll is featured on a new Sunrise Health Region billboard and is helping the region to promote the “Be a Champion of your Health” campaign. “Being a champion of my health is important to me because doing things to take care of yourself physically and mentally reflect on how you live your life,” says Stoll. “Being healthy means more than physical health. It is about making healthy choices and feeling good about yourself, and once you have that feeling there’s no turning back.” Members of the public are encouraged to be

a champion of their own health. One way is to create and maintain an accurate medication list to present to your health care providers as needed. Medication reconciliation is an important aspect of health care which ensures that information about an individual’s medicines is accurately passed on when moving from one health care setting, or provider, to another. Bringing an accurate and ongoing record of medications, allergies and other health information to medical appointments and hospital visits helps individuals during discussions and decisions about their health care. The personal medication record ensures proper spelling of medications and helps to remember when and

how medications should be taken, and is a reference when information is needed quickly in an emergency situation. The personal medication record can be either an electronic list or a printed list. Sunrise Health Region’s website links to “Knowledge is Your Best Medicine’ a reputable health information site that assists the public to create a printable personal medication record or download an iPhone app for the electronic version. The website also explains what is considered medicine and how to read a prescription label. Paper copies of the “Knowledge is Your Best Medicine” personal medication record can be obtained in Sunrise Health Region from the volunteer admitting hosts at Yorkton

Regional Health Centre, through Home Care services, Public Health offices in the region and at “Live Well with Chronic Conditions” sessions. “As an elite athlete, Jarret Stoll knows the value of maintaining personal health,” says Michelle TrowellRepsch, a Clinical Improvement Facilitator for Sunrise Health Region. “The medication reconciliation implementation team is pleased that Jarret is willing to lend his fame to help educate persons of every age about the importance of being active in maintaining their personal health. Keeping an accurate medication history to share with your health care providers is one important tool.”

Human services join together Con’t from Page 1. “A lot of the people we are supporting, there are more than one agency supporting that individual. Hopefully through this organization it will build the relationship between organizations so we can respond more quickly to individuals,” Denysek says. Movements to get services connected are increasing, and Denysek says he knows of similar movements in Manitoba. He says that it’s something that makes sense for Yorkton. “I think Yorkton has a history of being on the lead-

ing edge of service delivery and collaboration and cooperation. This is just another example of bringing multiple groups together to make Yorkton an even better place,” Denysek says.

Hi ho hi ho it’s off to recruit we go If we’re going to go through the effort and expense of bringing new physicians to the province we hope there are criteria in place that will ensure they stay and work where they are most needed. The province has announced – along with other recruitment areas – it’s a step closer to recruiting family physicians from India. A Saskatchewan delegation recently returned from a first-ever recruitment mission to the country. Reportedly the expansion of the Saskatchewan International Physician Practice Assessment (SIPPA) program in May 2012 opened up opportunities to recruit physicians from a wider range of countries, giving saskdocs an opportunity to travel to India and meet with physicians face-to-face. “We travelled to India expecting that interest would be high among those who were thinking about moving here to practice medicine and we were very happy with the response,” saskdocs CEO Ed Mantler says. “We intend to follow up with every doctor that we met in India to discuss their interest and assess their qualifications.” The November trip was the first phase of the India campaign. The second phase, scheduled for June 2013, will see many of the delegation’s initial members return to India to offer contracts to those physicians who are eligible for licensure and assessment in Saskatchewan. “In order to provide first-class medical services to the people of Saskatchewan, we must continue to recruit internationally,” Mantler adds. “International medical graduates are essential to our medical system and work fluidly in concert with our medical graduates from the University of Saskatchewan and other Canadian institutions. Our physician recruitment efforts will continue to centre on providing a balance of international medical graduates as well as Saskatchewan and Canadian trained physicians.” The recent mission to India has apparently also generated interest from international medical graduates living in Saskatchewan or other provinces in Canada who are interested in practising medicine here. Recruit away, but at the same time train our own residents and recruit wisely.

A sad state of affairs Canada...

Now doesn’t that just take the cake for being among one of the worst decisions ever made in Canadian history. It sits right up there with Vince Lee – the man who cut the head off of a fellow Greyhound passenger as he slept and then was apprehended as he was feasting on the head. The killers fate? About two years of psychiatric evaluation and then freedom, with a few conditions of course. Please... Last week’s news headline is just as bad. In 2009 an apparently mentally disturbed Quebec cardiologist – Guy Turcotte – decided he couldn’t handle the depression after splitting with his wife. His solution? To stab his two young children (47 times) to death. Oliver was just five and little Anne-Sophie three. How sad. Divorce and separation has happened to a lot of us. It’s a pathetic statistic but in fact, more than 50 per cent of all marriages end in divorce these days. But we learn to cope. We move on. In what society should killing your children in the aftermath ever be accepted let alone swept under the carpet? Apparently in Canada. Turcotte was just released from his mental facility – with a few conditions of course – we wouldn’t want to forget those. He must

live at an approved location and he must not have any contact with his exwife who incidentally, still feels threatened by her former partner. Can you blame her? Understandably she’s opposing the ruling. “If this doesn’t change, Shannon Deveau there’ll continue to be injustices like this,” she states. “We can have a discussion about the value of life, about the value of physical integrity, but unfortunately, the penalties that are given in the courts lead me to believe that there’s no great value to a human life.” Here, here. His review board was told by doctors Turcotte shows no signs of mental illness. He sees a psychologist once a week for an hour and the only medication he’s taking is for hair loss. Wow. Imagine Turcotte’s wife and family members looking on as they did last week when Turcotte spoke out at his hearing. “I walk everywhere in the city,” he said, “I’m in the crowds...” Oliver and Anne-Sophie will never walk the streets again and nor will their mother comfortably. This represents a system that is in need of extreme overhaul. It’s scary, it’s sad and it’s disheartening... C’mon Canada, get with the program!

The way I see it... Column

Time to make Easy Bake a toy for all of the kids A 13 year-old girl in New Jersey named McKenna Pope wanted to buy her 4 year-old brother an Easy Bake oven. When she went to the store, however, she decided she couldn’t, because all models were in pink or purple with boxes decorated entirely by girls. She wants Hasbro, makers of the product, to make it more gender neutral, an effort which is getting the attention of celebrity chefs. There has been something distinctly old fashioned about Hasbro’s insistence on making the Easy Bake a girl’s product, even though cooking is hardly the exclusive domain of women. Ignoring the fact that everyone has to cook, whether they want to or not, actually enjoying cooking and being good at it is something that doesn’t have anything to do with gender. Men and women are prominent chefs in various different styles of cooking, so it doesn’t make sense to make a product like the Easy Bake heavily slanted to one gender. If one looks at the list of chefs that have responded to Pope’s petition, for example, they will see a large number of men’s names, all chefs who have made a successful career through their cooking. There are also female chefs supporting the effort, and in general it just seems obvious to get all kids interested in cooking in an early age.

Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger It goes further than that though, since the lines between genders have broken down a little bit more every year. There simply isn’t a kitchen out there like my grandmothers’, where men were simply not allowed at any point during meal preparation. Personally, that’s a good thing, and the person making the meals should naturally be the person who is good at making meals, rather than drawing on gender lines. One could spill much ink about gender equality, but to keep it as simple as possible, work is generally best allocated based on who is best able to do it, rather than relying on arbitrary stereotypes. That means everyone gets to cook a little bit, and that plain makes sense.

So, if that’s the way the world is going, why is the Easy Bake set so firmly in stereotypes that don’t really apply anymore? Men and women enjoy cooking, it stands to reason that this trend continues down to making tiny cakes with a little oven. If a kid enjoys making food at a young age, it shouldn’t really matter what gender they are, it should encouraged, even if the only kitchen they aspire to run is the one in their own house. The Easy Bake might not be the same as making an actual cake, but it’s a start. I’m not going to argue that all toys should be gender neutral, or that there are not differences between the sexes. I personally don’t understand the appeal of most toys for little girls, but my niece seems to enjoy them so there’s clearly some kind of innate gender difference. That’s fine, but when it comes to some activities, there’s just no reason for the split, and there’s no need to pitch it heavily to one side just because that’s the way it’s always been done. There are a ton of little boys out there that aspire to cook for a living, to be some kind of chef in a restaurant and feed people. They are being done a disservice by those who want to market cooking as a girls’ thing. It’s a human thing, and since we’ve all got to cook in order to stay alive, our toys should end up reflecting that reality.

Your letter of the Week

It’s time to compete with the world

Secret deal despite opposition

To the Editor: Big bills, poor service, few choices – on wireless, internet and phone services, Canadians are fed up. They want competition and it’s time to give it to them. The evidence is clear. In initiating its recent public consultation on a wireless code of conduct, Canadians inundated the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) with comments. We are at best ranked in the middle in the developed world and our prices are high. While some may quibble about one methodology versus another in ranking us, the evidence supports Canadians’ frustration. Studies from the Organization of EconomicCooperation and Development (OECD), Harvard University and the CRTC, show where we stand. According to the CRTC’s latest report, Canadian wireless revenues, measured as the monthly average revenue per user (ARPU), are the highest in the G7. At $55 per month per mobile subscriber, Canadians pay 20 per cent more than users in the US, 70 per cent more than users in France, and 100 per cent more than users in the UK and Germany. On mobile data, roaming rates and internet combined, Canadians pay more per month for telecommunications than many of our developed world counterparts. Beyond just prices, Canadians are frustrated with the endless list of roadblocks: Locked phones, ridiculous contract penalties, hidden service charges, bogus “sys-

tem access fees”, the list is endless. Small, medium and large businesses are also frustrated with the lack of choice, high prices and restrictive contracts. According to the latest study by the Centre for the Study of Living Standards (CSLS) Canadian business investment in information technology and telecommunications in 2010 was just 53 per cent of that in the US. This, in turn, has negatively affected Canada’s productivity and ultimately the strength of Canada’s overall economy. While I commend the CRTC for making the effort on its wireless code of conduct, I hold little hope for success in achieving change. In a system without real competition in which consumers have few choices, the CRTC, the regulator, has limited options. Technology will change, providers will change their packages, their price offerings, slip in a new fee here, there and everywhere, and the regulator will not be able to keep up. Ultimately, the key is competition. Only real, market-based competition will keep providers in line. With competition and choice, providers will weed out unnecessary fees, invest in service quality to retain customers and improve their product packages. That is why I believe Canada must open the door fully to competition in telecommunications. Canadians want world class service, and we want to be able to compete in the world. Perhaps this sounds redundant, but we can’t compete with the best unless we actually compete with the best. You won’t

make the NHL if you keep playing in house league. I would maintain restrictions on foreign ownership in broadcasting because of cultural and content implications to ensure continued production and broadcast of Canadian shows and content for television, film and new media. But I would open the doors on telecommunications. In Germany, Sweden, Italy, even France, there exist no restrictions on foreign investment in telecommunications. It is time for Canada to enter fully into the global market as well. Let’s compete with the best and let competition bring new ideas, entice investment in new technologies, create new jobs in Canada and drive down the costs of our wireless bills. If a Vodaphone or a Verizon enters Canada and offers Canadians new choices, new options, all the better. New entrants will invest in new advanced networks benefiting Canadian consumers and businesses alike. The investment will support continued innovation in the digital economy, improve Canadian competitiveness and help create jobs. Only through competition with the world will we innovate on the leading edge and create our own home-grown, globally competitive businesses. I have every faith that when put to the test, Canadian businesses, Canadian entrepreneurs will step up to the plate and compete – and the ultimate winners will be Canadians. Marc Garneau, MP, Westmount Ville-Marie, Quebec.

We pay the price for financial incompetence To the Editor: The Royal Canadian Legion questions how the Harper government can spend millions of dollars to celebrate the War of 1812, but cannot afford decent burials for contemporary war veterans. Most Canadians share that angst. This government’s priorities are warped. Conservatives claim the deficit forces them to make budget cuts, but it’s important to remember that that deficit is largely self-inflicted. And it’s exacerbated by on-going Conservative waste. To put the situation in context, on taking power in 2006, Mr. Harper inherited unparalleled financial strength from his Liberal predecessors. Budgets had been solidly balanced for a decade. Debt and taxes were steadily falling. The economy boasted three per cent annual growth. Over 3.5-million net new jobs had been created. The federal surplus was running at $13-billion/year and fiscal flexibility over the ensu-

ing five years was projected at $100-billion. Then what happened? Mr. Harper squandered all that success. He overspent by threetimes the rate of inflation. He eliminated all contingency reserves and prudence factors that had brought integrity into the federal budget-making process. And he put this country back into deficit again BEFORE any recession arrived in late 2008. And since then, the Conservatives have run-up the biggest deficits in history. On their watch, federal debt has grown by $140-billion to a record-breaking $600-billion altogether. Part of their problem is wild mis-spending, like their scandalous misappropriation of millions of dollars for ornamental gazebos and sidewalks-to-nowhere to puff-up Muskoka during a superfluous session of the G-8. The Harper regime continues to pour millions into self-serving government advertising, expensive consultants, a wasteful Cabinet, and dubious projects like their 1812 extravaganza and the ad-

dition of 30 extra Members of Parliament. So who gets the short end of the stick when their debt begins to bite? The families of 20,000 veterans whose applications for burial assistance were denied; The jobless who can’t get anyone to even answer the phone to help with an EI claim; Newcomers to Canada who are told if they fall ill and die while waiting for their refugee claim to be processed – well, that’s okay with the Harper government; The lowest-income Canadians, still under the age of 54, who will have $30,000 slashed from their Old Age Security; Low-income families who are denied eligibility for federal tax credits which more wealthy people receive routinely. These are just a few of the folks who are forced to pay the price for the Harper government’s financial incompetence. Ralph Goodale, MP, Wascana, SK.

When you can’t breathe, nothing else matters To the Editor: At the turn of the 20th century when the tuberculosis epidemic swept across Saskatchewan and Canada, the Saskatchewan AntiTuberculosis League, flanked by an army of volunteers and donors, held fast to the premise that everyone has a right to lung health and that holds true today. For over 100 years, generations of people across Saskatchewan

and Canada have joined in the fight for healthy lungs and clean air by supporting the Lung Association’s annual Christmas Seals campaign. Lung disease is not a respecter of age, geographic location or culture and can affect anyone at anytime. As a matter of fact one out of every three of our residents will be affected by lung disease during their lifetime. That is why we are ac-

tive in communities across Saskatchewan providing training for health care professionals, delivering health education in schools, facilitating patient support groups, lobbying for clean air and conducting lung disease prevention and management programs that include asthma, COPD, sleep apnea, lung cancer and smoking cessation. We couldn’t do all of this wonderful work

without our donors and support from the public. Thank you for your generosity during the holiday season and throughout the year Donations can be made by responding to our mail appeal, making a secure online donation at www.sk.lung. ca/donation. Brian Graham, The Lung Association’s President and CEO.

To the Editor: Residents of the northern Saskatchewan village of Pinehouse feel betrayed and appalled that a controversial “Collaboration Agreement” between the village and uranium giants Cameco and Areva is set to be signed today, despite community concerns and opposition to the deal. At a community meeting held recently, Pinehouse Mayor Mike Natomagan announced that the agreement, which critics say amounts to a gag order that violates residents’ Charter rights, will be signed even though residents have not yet been provided with a copy of the agreement. There are a lot of questions about the agreement in the community, and we’re being told that a confidentiality clause means we can’t get the answers we need from our administration. To us, it’s a simple issue of democracy. People have a right to see what’s in an agreement before it’s signed, not after. But even though we’ve asked to see the agreement and to have input, the residents here have been totally shut out of the process. It’s evident that a land claim is being negotiated without my consent or knowledge. It’s tough to go on promises, but promises are all we’ve got about this agreement. You wouldn’t sign a mortgage without knowing the cost of the house or the details, but that’s what we’re being asked to do. If this is truly a good deal for us, why are Cameco, Areva and the council keeping it secret and rushing to ram it through as quickly as possible? Residents of Pinehouse have retained legal counsel and have sent a letter to Mayor Natomagan requesting that signing of the agreement be delayed “to allow a consultative process that permits full, prior and informed consent of those affected and potentially affected by the terms and implementation of that Agreement.” The letter, prepared by Kowalchuk Law Office, also outlined numerous concerns with the agreement, including “the impact of the Agreement on: the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms including s.35 and the duty to consult, as well as s.7 (the right to life, liberty and security of the person) and s.2(b) (freedom of expression); Aboriginal treaties; international law and environmental statutes.” Residents were given their first opportunity to view a summary of the agreement at a November 13 meeting, where they were provided with a summary of the deal, which includes a number of controversial terms, including pledging community support for current, proposed and future Cameco and Areva operations and the promise that Pinehouse will “Make reasonable efforts to ensure Pinehouse members do not say or do anything that interferes with or delays Cameco/Areva’s mining, or do or say anything that is not consistent with Pinehouse’s promises under the Collaboration Agreement.” Residents are calling on Pinehouse, Cameco and Areva to delay signing of the agreement until consultations with the community have been completed and terms that may violate residents’ Charter rights are removed or amended. Messages supporting Pinehouse residents and calling for a delay in signing the agreement have come in from across Canada and as far away as Australia, the UK and Germany. If the agreement is signed as announced, residents plan to proceed with a court injunction against implementation of the agreement. John Smerek, Dale Smith Pinehouse residents, and Larry Kowalchuk, Kowalchuk Law Office.

The Queen’s first Christmas message For many of my constituents, Christmas would not feel complete without hearing the clear cadences of our Queen’s voice, reminding us of who we are as a people and a Commonwealth in her annual Christmas message. The world has changed in the sixty years since Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II became our sovereign monarch. And yet some things and some words remain timeless, like the Queen herself. It seems appropriate on this year of her Diamond Jubilee to revisit a message like that – her very first broadcast over the radio from her study at Sandringham, Norfolk, sixty years ago, in 1952. Here, then, are some excerpts: “I am spending Christmas with my family; and let me say at once how I hope that your children are enjoying themselves as much as mine are on a day which is especially the children’s festival, kept in honour of the Child born at Bethlehem nearly two thousand years ago. “... I have a special thought for those who are serving their country in distant lands far from their families. Wherever you are ... I give you my affectionate greetings ...” “... We belong, you and I, to a far larger family ... that immense union of nations ... Like our own families, it can be a great power for good – a force which I believe can be of immeasurable benefit to

all humanity. “... Many grave problems and difficulties confront us all, but with a new faith in the old and splendid beliefs given us by our forefathers, and the strength to venture beyond the safeties of the past, I know we shall be worthy of our duty. “Above all, we must keep alive that courageous spirit of adventure that is the finest quality of youth; and by youth I do not just mean those who are young in years; I mean too all those who are young in heart, no matter how old they may be. “... let us set out to build a truer knowledge of ourselves and our fellowmen, to work for tolerance and understanding among the nations and to use the tremendous forces of science and learning for the betterment of man’s lot upon this earth. “If we can do these three things with courage, with generosity and with humility, then surely we shall achieve that “Peace on earth, Goodwill toward men” which is the eternal message of Christmas, and the desire of us all. “ ... whatever your religion may be ... pray that God may give me wisdom and strength to carry out the solemn promises I shall be making, and that I may faithfully serve Him and you, all the days of my life.” Along with our Queen, I add ... “May God bless and guide you all through the coming year.”

Community linkage Con’t from Page 1.

The first being the formation of an association involving Yorkton and other communities such as Esterhazy, Langenburg, Canora, Melville, Ituna, Foam Lake, Churchbridge, RMs and First Nations to share both ideas and resources. The second step says Anwar is to create a centralized electronic clearing house with monthly meetings between development officers, administrators and others. Next formal partnerships would be formed with outside organizations that would include the first two actions. Last but not least, a centralized office would be established in one community that acts on behalf of all others in the region – funded through a formula agreed to by all parties. “The REA Model was very well received by the participants of the meeting. All participants agreed to reestablish the broken linkages, share the best practiced and create informal partnerships on regional economic development projects,” adds Anwar. “The communities in the region were also looking at Yorkton to take a lead role in the development of the REA...” Steps one and two would have little financial impact on the budget and Anwar says other expenses would be examined in the future as needed.

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, December 20, 2012 - Page 7A

How are investors protected? With widespread political uncertainty, especially the turmoil throughout the European Union, many investors wonder how well their money is protected in the event their bank or brokerage fails. The Canadian banking system isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t immune to the pressures that face global banking, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a reasonable question. In Canada investors have two basic types of account protection â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Canadian Investor Protection Fund (CIPF) and the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC). The CIPF was established by the investment industry to ensure client assets are protected, within defined limits, should a CIPF Member become insolvent. The CDIC is a federal Crown corporation created by Parliament that insures eligible deposits, made with its member institutions, in case a member institution fails. Although they sound similar, there are key differences between the CIPF and the CDIC. In general, the CIPF covers up to a maximum of C$1 million of cash, securities, and some segregated insurance products held with member brokerages of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC). This includes two types of accounts, each eligible for the C$1 million coverage: general and separate. General accounts are considered to be cash and margin accounts, whereas separate accounts are typically retirement accounts such as RRSPs and RRIFs. All general accounts are combined for coverage purposes, as are all separate accounts. CDIC insures eligible

Financial freedom by Kim Inglis

www.reynoldsinglis.ca deposits up to a maximum of C$100,000 per depositor at CDIC member institutions. Most Canadian chartered banks are CDIC members, as are a number of companies that take deposits. There are some financial institutions that take deposits but are not CDIC members though, such as credit unions and caisses populaires. However, provincial deposit insurance programs may cover deposits held at those institutions. CDIC coverage includes savings and chequing accounts, GICs or other term deposits with an original term to maturity of five years or less, and accounts that hold realty taxes on mortgaged properties. It also covers money orders, certified cheques, travelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; cheques and bank drafts issued by CDIC members. An important distinction is that mutual funds, stocks, bonds, and Treasury bills are not covered by CDIC insurance. The same applies to accounts or products in U.S. dollars or other foreign currency. To understand the difference between CIPF and CDIC, consider an investor who purchases a 3-year term deposit from Bobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bank that is held at Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brokerage. If Bobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bank is a CDIC member and goes bankrupt, the investor will be protected through CDIC. If Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Brokerage is a CIPF member, and goes bankrupt but Bobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bank does not, the investor will be protected through CIPF. Just as it is important for Canadians to understand how their investments are protected, concerns should be considered in context. According to CIPF, investment dealer insolvency is rare and has only occurred 18 times since CIPFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inception in 1969. CIPF has made payments of $36 million, net of recoveries, and no eligible customers have suffered a loss of property. Likewise, since CDIC was created in 1967, there have been 43 member institution failures, with the last occurring in 1996. And, according to the Department of Finance, Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s banks are wellcapitalized and exceed Bank for International Settlementsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; norms by significant margins. Total capital is in the 9.6 per cent range, whereas the required minimum is 8 per cent.

Christmas in Norway: there’s no place like home

Submitted by Kaare Askildt

Julebukk is translated to Yule Goat or Christmas Goat, and it has its origin in the Old Norse mythology where Thor’s chariot was drawn by two goats. On the shortest day of the winter the Vikings would slaughter a goat for a feast honoring Thor. During this feast they would exchange gifts with each other. The Christian missionaries were not able to convert the Viking population to Christianity without adopting some of the old traditions. Feasting on a goat was replaced with using the goat as a symbol at Christmas time. The Julebukk thus became one of the oldest of Norwegian traditions, where originally a man dressed in a goats mask and a goatskin cape, represented the ghosts of winter nights. An old Viking Law called Gulatingsloven stated that the Julebukk activity can only start on December 26 as both December 24 and 25 are holy and reserved for Christianity. In the beginning the Julebukk would go from door to door or farm to farm to receive gifts from the people to thank him for protection and keeping the ghosts at bay! He was totally anonymous, and he never spoke a word. Today this tradition is still carried on between Christmas and New Year. Children will dress up in clothing similar to what would have been worn by farm workers in the olden days; cover their faces with a mask or makeup so nobody can tell who they are. And then go knocking on doors. They might sing some carols in return for getting some sweet treats. Adults, generally young bachelors, will also perform as Julebukk, they might dress up in goatskin clothing, or old homespun pants and a loose fitting long sleeve shirt, and cover their face with heavy makeup to hide their identity. However, these guys expect to get a taste of the Yuletide meal as well as some holiday spirit, being it home brewed beer or Aquavit. One has to treat the Julebukker nice and give them food and drinks, otherwise it is believed that you will have a bad year! The tradition varies from district to district, but unfortunately in some districts the tradition is all but forgotten. In one major Norwegian

coastal town, the tradition has evolved to a few adult couples going around knocking on doors and performing some lively yuletide songs while doing a few jigs. They will bring with them a shot glass to receive a shot of Aquavit at each stop, in return for their performance. The songs get livelier and more off key and the jigs performed on increasingly unsteady legs as the Julebukker work their way around the neighbourhood! In the Hallingdal district in Norway, the Gulatingloven has long been forgotten. My twin brother Kjell was a Captain in the Norwegian Police and in charge of a rural office in the popular resort town of Geilo. He related to me that the young bachelor Julebukker would come knocking on the door on December 24, just after they would be finishing the traditional Norwegian Christmas dinner. Tradition true, when your door was knocked on, you had to serve something to drink and a small piece of the pork rib roast. The Christmas after he took charge of the rural office, the young Julebukker came knocking on my brother’s door. They were obviously not sober, but he would still serve them a tiny shot of Aquavit and a small piece of meat, to stay within tradition. Then he would later learn that these young lads would brag around town that they had been served booze by the Police Captain. The following year when these lads came knocking, he would serve

them non-alcoholic beer and a dry Christmas cookie, and the visits from the Julebukker became less frequent. He recalls one time on Christmas Eve when he had to threaten one of the obnoxious and drunk Julebukker with putting him in the drunk tank overnight to sober up if he didn’t leave! The lad got the mes-

sage and walked back down to the bottom of the 100 meter driveway, where he obviously felt safe enough to turn around and holler dirty swears at my brother. Even though the lad had tried very hard to disguise himself with his clothing and makeup, my brother did recognize him, and on December 28 he had him picked up and

brought on to the carpet in his police office. He read this young chap the riot act and made it extremely clear to him as to what would happen if he didn’t clean up his act and behave as a proper gentleman whenever he would be a Julebukk! The young lad apologized and slinked out of the police station. There was never a repeat performance from that young man. He became extremely polite and always greeted my brother with great respect after that. In some districts it is believed that a small Nisse might come knocking on your door. He will have along a sleigh drawn by a goat, where he will put the gift(s) that you would bestow on him. This Nisse is a relative of the Nisse that lives on the farm and tends to the livestock. Julebukk is also a Christmas ornament. It is a goat figure made out

of straw and decorated with red ribbons. It is thought to ward off evil spirits during the Yuletide festivities. In some districts the current version of Julebukk is to sneak the straw goat figure into the neighbour’s house, without being observed. When the neighbour finds the Julebukk he has to sneak it into another neighbour’s house without being seen, and so it goes until the Julebukk arrives back at the house it originated from. That calls for a neighbourly Christmas party, where all the Julebukk neighbours get together for a potluck supper. The children will be given some toys to keep them occupied, and when the women have tucked in their little ones, and are sure that they are asleep; the adult celebration would start and last to the wee hours of the morning.

LUCKY WINNER – It was another successful year for the Yorkton Regional High School magazine campaign and there is one lucky girl who will have lasting proof. Each year one student gets the keys to a car and this year that student was Amy Huang. Pictured in the photo with her new-to-her porsche are left to right, Amy Huang, Roby Sharpe Student Advisor, Mike Haczkewicz YRHS Principal, Alan Sharp YRHS SuperIntendant, Daryl Beamish QSP Magazines. The Porsche was sponsored by YRHS Mechanics, where, “We Build Performance”.

PRESERVING NATURE – Pictured above, YRHS photography teacher Chad McDowell holds a check for $260 that will be donated to Nature Saskatchewan. Money was raised by students selling their own photographs at the Sunflower Fine Art Craft Sale. The photos were taken as part of a field trip with Nature Saskatchewan and the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery in June. The students not only raised money but also a lot of awareness about Nature Saskatchewan at the craft sale. Nature Saskatchewan is a non-profit charitable organization that promotes appreciation and understanding of our natural environment through education; and, through conservation and research, protects and preserves natural ecosystems and their biodiversity. Pictured (l-r) are: Shawna Turner, Kendall McKee, Chad McDowell, Lea Burnard and Bailey Haas.

Sudoku Puzzle of the Week 5

SUDOKU RULES The objective is to fill a 9×9 grid with digits so that each column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 sub-grids that compose the grid (also called “boxes,” “blocks,” “regions,” or “sub-squares”) contains all of the digits from 1 to 9. The puzzle setter provides a partially completed grid, which typically has a unique solution. Completed puzzles are always a type of Latin square with an additional constraint on the contents of individual regions. For example, the same single digit may not appear twice in the same 9x9 playing board row or column or in any of the nine 3x3 subregions of the 9x9 playing board. This week’s puzzle is very hard. See the solution on Page 18.

“As 2012 winds down and we look forward to 2013 we should take the time to reflect on the community we live in and how we can make Yorkton a place where good things continue to happen.

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, December 20, 2012 - Page 15A

T’was the night before Christmas and all through the house... A parent’s night before Christmas...

‘Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house I searched for the tools to hand to my spouse. Instructions were studied and we were inspired, In hopes we could manage “Some Assembly Required.” The children were quiet (not asleep) in their beds, While Dad and I faced the evening with dread: A kitchen, two bikes, Barbie’s town house to boot! And, thanks to Grandpa, a train with a toot! We opened the boxes, my heart skipped a beat.... Let no parts be missing or parts incomplete! Too late for last-minute

returns or replacement; If we can’t get it right, it goes in the basement! When what to my worrying eyes should appear, But 50 sheets of directions, concise, but not clear, With each part numbered and every slot named, So if we failed, only we could be blamed.

More rapid than eagles the parts then fell out, All over the carpet they were scattered about. “Now bolt it! Now twist it! Attach it right there! Slide on the seats, and staple the stair! Hammer the shelves, and nail to the stand.” “Honey,” said hubby, “you just glued my hand.” And then in a twinkling, I knew for a fact That all the toy dealers had indeed made a pact To keep parents busy all Christmas Eve night With “assembly required” till morning’s first light. We spoke not a word, but kept bent at our work, Till our eyes, they went bleary; our fingers all hurt. The coffee went cold

and the night, it wore thin Before we attached the last rod and last pin. Then laying the tools away in the chest, We fell into bed for a well-deserved rest. But I said to my husband just before I passed out,

“This will be the best Christmas, without any doubt. Tomorrow we’ll cheer, let the holiday ring, And not have to run to the store for a thing! We did it! We did it! The toys are all set For the perfect, most perfect, Christmas, I

bet!” Then off to dreamland and sweet repose I gratefully went, Though I suppose there’s something to say for those self-deluded... I’d forgotten that batteries are never included! – Author Unknown

Christmas mincemeat tartlets 1. Make sure all ingredients are finely chopped. In a large bowl, mix all the fruit, butter, rind and spices until well combined. Dissolve the sugar in the brandy and pour it over the mixture. Cover and let stand overnight. 2. The next day stir the mixture again then place in clean dry jars for at least a month before using. 3. To make the pastry: sift the flours and then either rub in the butter or combine in a food processor. Add the icing sugar and then stir in the egg yolk and water and mix it all to a dough. Work into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, then put in the fridge for an hour. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C and grease a 12 hole muffin tin. 4. To assemble: roll out the dough on a floured surface till about 2mm thick. Cut out shapes to fit the muffin holes, fill each tart with a generous teaspoon of mince (but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overfill) and cover the top of each tart with another circle of pastry, or use biscuit cutters to add different shapes to the top. Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes then remove to a rack to cool.

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer With an eleven day layoff on the horizon the FAA faithful were given a treat as the SJHL’s two best teams collided in one of the year’s best games as the Hounds and Terriers provided a playoff atmosphere in a battle for first place in the Sherwood Division and the SJHL. The Terriers trend of scoring first at home continued as Jeremy Johnson scored his fifteenth goal of the season to give the Terriers the first strike in the pivotal matchup. His brother Dylan scored his third of the year off of a hard drive to the net to make it 2-0 Terriers nearly midway into the second before the Hounds scored at the end of the second in what was a wild, and extremely physical period of hockey that had the fans on their feet. A huge hip check from Devon McMullen led to the Hounds Dion Anstin running McMullen off the puck and a fighting major for both players. Anstin wasn’t assessed a instigator penalty on the play and his cheap shot started a series of tilts that turned the playoff intensity to full throttle as Derek Falloon and Kailum Gervais both defended their captain by dropping the gloves during the second. Austin Bourhis also got the crowd on their feet with a huge bone crunching hit of his own in the second that added to the highlight reel of old time hockey exhibited in the second. After all the fireworks were over it was still a 2-1 hockey game headed into the third period and the Hounds were pressing after scoring at the death heading into the third. Nathan Murray put things away for good for the Terriers and Tayler Thompson added another for insurance as four different goal scorers contributed in a 4-1 win off of Kale Thomson’s 36 save performance in what just might be an early contender for the SJHL’s best regular season game. Dylan Johnson continued his recent string of impressive performances in the absence of Brenden Poncelet and Zak Majkowski who are out with injuries. Johnson mentioned that the enhanced role has given him some valuable confidence in his

organization who has good linemates in Regina and has been playing really well.” Wins against Melfort and Estevan on the weekend in addition to Tuesday night’s win pushed the Terriers winning streak to three games and gives them a four point cushion on the Hounds heading into the holiday break. A 24-8-1 record has the Terriers sitting at first place and as favorites for the SJHL title come playoff time a little over halfway through the season. Cont. on Page 21.

YORKTON TERRIERS win a highlight filled meeting with the Notre Dame Hounds Tuesday night at the FAA. The win puts the Terriers four points ahead for first in the league heading into the break.

Harvest steal late win over first place Mintos By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer Inching their way into the SMAAAHL top eight has not been easy for the Harvest as they attempt to chase the Saskatoon Blazers and Notre Dame Argos for the final two playoff spots in the league. A huge test for the Harvest and their playoff chances came into the FAA over the weekend as the league best Prince Albert Mintos headed to town for a two game set. With the Blazers a point ahead with games at hand over the Harvest and the Argos sitting a few more points up in seventh, the Harvest needed to avoid a sweep by the Mintos in order

to keep the gap manageable. Saturday afternoon did not give the Harvest much hope as after Spencer Bombior stood on his head during a first period that ended tied after a Dakota Odgers goal despite the Harvest only mustering three shots, the Mintos made their dominance felt. Three unanswered goals early in the second period showed why the Mintos are the league’s best team headed into the break and the Harvest couldn’t recover, losing 6-2 and being outshot 40-13. Spencer Bombior made 34 saves in the loss and head coach Jeff Odgers was impressed with his performance even with allowing six goals, “Spencer kept us in it in the first period and we

just gave them to many chances, and a talented offensive minded team like the Mintos will make you pay for your mistakes,” said Odgers. Sunday saw a change of script as the Harvest came out with the lead after Lynnden Pastachak took advantage of a five on three powerplay to score his thirteenth of the season and notch his twenty-ninth point in twenty five games for the Harvest. The Mintos tied things up off of a Lochlan Morrison point shot that gave a screened Carson Bogdan no chance to send both teams to the dressing room with a tied score after the first period.

An invitation to the Toronto Blue Jays bandwagon It truly has been a winter to remember for the Toronto Blue Jays and their fans. After a season where pretty much every player seemed to suffer some sort of freak injury, the Jays have went from being a dark horse contender with above average hitting talent and no pitching, to having one of the best throwing staffs in the AL and being mentioned as serious contenders in the AL East and if not that at least the Wild Card. NL Cy Young winner and knuckleball specialist R.A. Dickey has now been added to the list of proven, big name players the Jays have brought in this winter and has given the Jays the last piece needed in their puzzle: A staff ace. Ever since Roy Halladay was traded to the Phillies the Jays have had struggles finding pitching that could carry the load, young promising pitchers levelled out at serviceable at best, or developed arm problems and faded out of existence, Ricky Romero couldn’t handle the pressure and will welcome being pushed into the back of the rotation this year after a disaster of a 2012 season as the number one guy in the rotation. With Dickey

being added the Jays have a 20 game winner from last season who led the NL in strikeouts and ERA and even if he drops in form will be a lock for 15 wins with a better lineup giving him more run support. Now that Dickey has been added to the squad and excitement is now at its absolute peak it is time to address the most pressing issue: welcoming everyone in Canada to the Blue Jays bandwagon. It is going to be hard to swallow if you are a die hard Blue Jays fan. Yes, I am going to have to accept that not everyone gave a damn about the Blue Jays up until the Marlins trade and the rest of this offseason, and yes some people in Canada have even cheered for the Red Sox and the (ugh) Yankees in the past, but we are going to have to move past our bitterness to accept everyone in Canada on our Blue Jays bandwagon. It isn’t fair, I know, some of us have sat and watched the Jays start hot in April and May to go cold for the rest of the season. Some of us have suffered through the Alexis Rios and Vernon Wells contracts and letdowns, we said goodbye to our favorite

player of all time in Roy Halladay to see him pitch a perfect game in his first ever playoff start months after. We watched Jose Bautista turn into a hitting machine, but we also watched Marco Scutaro turn into a clutch playoff performer immediately after leaving Toronto. To keep things

short: If you have been a Toronto Jays fan since after 1993, you have been through some things. But the bandwagon is needed, think about why money hasn’t been spent on this team since the early days of the SkyDome, the stadium is never full. Yes, Rogers has one of

the best television contracts in baseball from owning the Jays and if they didn’t own the team that money likely would have led to some higher spending, but when the Jays were in their glory days the SkyDome was the biggest venue in baseball, and it was always full. We are tired of seeing the Red Sox and Yankees frontrunners fill our stadium, and embarrassing 1/4 full attendance numbers in the middle of the summer. This is our team, it is an entire country’s team with a fanbase that, despite not being located in the city the team plays in, is one of the most loyal in the MLB. Bandwagon fans are just a part of success, not everyone cares

enough to support a loser and everyone wants to be a part of the hot ticket. I am an unabashed opponent of the bandwagon mentality, but if I can get over it so the Jays can fill the building every night and keep bringing in talent I am all for it. Sure diehard fans have the potential to be bought out and that isn’t fair, but I think we all have been waiting for our team to be the hot ticket for while now and it is finally our time. So with that being said, here is my open invitation to the Toronto Blue Jays bandwagon, just don’t be too shocked if they let you down and be loud and proud. Take it from all of us.

Bantam AA hockey By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The Yorkton Terriers Bantam AA hockey team hosted the Moose Jaw Warriors and the Prairie Storm over the weekend at the Kinsmen and posted two impressive wins going into January. The Terriers first took a win over Moose Jaw on Friday night in what was an entertaining meeting. Moose Jaw jumped out to a early lead in the first period before Brennan Watson scored two goals in the second period to make it 2-1 heading into the third. Moose Jaw tied things up with Zach Hagerman’s second of the night, before the Terriers rattled off four unanswered goals, including three on the powerplay and Watson’s third of the night to take a 6-2 lead and a 6-3 win after a last second goal by the Warriors. Kylan Shea, Logan Foster, and Jake Kustra rounded out the goal scorers while Mackenzie Welke and Tyler Stratechuk both got two assists each on the night as top playmakers. Braidon Berezowski had a slow net in goal but made the saves he needed to make in a 21 save victory in goal. The Terriers went 4-6 on the powerplay in the win, taking advantage of their opportunities with the man advantage. Saturday night brought the fourth place Prairie Storm into town with the

Terriers looking for a win to chase them down in the South Division standings being three points back heading into the game. Four straight goals from the Terriers led to an easy 4-1 win as Berezowski made 35 saves in the win in an outstanding performance in net. JJ Fofonoff, Matthew Wilgosh, Welke, and Stratechuk were the goalscorers for the Terriers with Wilgosh adding an assist for a two point night and Kylan Shea getting two assists as the top playmaker on the evening. The win put the Terriers in a four way tie for fifth place and one point behind the Storm in the standings. The Bantam AA Terriers will host the third place Regina Monarchs and the Swift Current Raiders on the 21/22 at the FAA to wrap up their month of December in two crucial games that give the Terriers a chance to ride some momentum before heading into Christmas. If the Terriers can continue their winning streak they have a chance to climb up the Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League standings, two straight wins at home give them confidence going ahead. If they can continue their hot scoring and keep getting solid goaltending from Berezowski, a huge push to end December is not out of the question.

Saints lose to Raiders By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The SHHS Saints Sr. Basketball team hosted a four team round robin tournament over the weekend with the highlight being the first Gladstone Battle between the YRHS and Sacred at 2:30 on Friday. An almost full Halo Dome welcomed the two teams with the game taking place during school and the Saints came out with a solid effort but ultimately could not match the Raiders talent as the YRHS took bragging rights and ran away in the second half to an easy victory. Brendon Walkington and Carter Mackay were outstanding for the Saints in the loss, both putting up double doubles with ten plus points and rebounds in the contest and doing whatever it took to keep their team in the game, specifically Mackay who showed that he will be one of the Saints most important players with a workmanlike attitude in their first marquee game of the season. Turnovers were what cost the Saints as head coach Garrett Karcha mentioned that losing their starting guards from last year has contributed to some growing pains,

allowing the Raiders fullcourt press to beat them. Karcha did mention that guard Jacob Okeny showed flashes of poise in the second half saying, “Jacob is a raw talent for us coming to play basketball for the first time in three years for us after being a standout soccer player and his skills from soccer really translate well to the hardwood and once he gets into the groove of playing basketball he will be a huge asset for us.” Raiders head coach Jason Payne was happy

with how his team played specifically Tyrell Ulmer and Darien Kequahtooway who he feels have the potential to become key members of the teams core with Daniel Mandziuk and Ben Redl. “Ulmer is a great hustle player for us and Darien has grown as a guard for us with the increased minutes he has gotten in his second year with the senior team and both have great potential for us going forward,” said Payne. The Saints/Raiders will be back in action at the YRHS’ round robin tournament January 4/5.

Terriers take out Notre Dame Cont. from Page 19.

The Terriers depth has been a key part of their success in the first half as returning players from the WHL in goaltender Dawson MacAuley and defenders Austin Bourhis and John Neibrandt have made the Terriers loaded from top to bottom this season, something Cassan said was the goal all along. “When we pieced together this team we wanted to make it as balanced as possible, and the guys have really embraced that mission, players fill the roles we assign for them and if a player is in a slump no one is getting on their linemates or showing frustration, we have been playing well as a team.” Kale Thomson was given the game’s first star after the 36 save performance and has been a huge part of the Terriers success so far, winning multiple SJHL Goalie of the Week honors and pairing well with the aforementioned MacAuley to give the Terriers a solid one-two punch in goal. Thomson credits much of his success to the defensive depth the Terriers have this year, “I have great guys in front of me, the Norrish’s and McMullen play great defense and getting Bourhis and Neibrandt back with us has been huge for our defense and has really helped me out,” said Thomson. As for the relationship between him and MacAuley, who is 7-2 this year in

what has been a successful year of his own Thomson said that they are good friends saying “Me and Dawson have a great relationship and we support each other, helping each other out in practice and when the other gets a start we support each other and are confident that if either of us play we will have good goaltending.” The Terriers will now get a nice twelve day break and will be hoping to heal some injures, specifically Poncelet who is out after an injury picked up against Estevan and Majkowski who are both key veteran players for the Terriers. Cassan said he hopes that the extra two weeks gives them a chance to recover and will help, but said that there is no definite timetable for their returns. Melville will be heading into the FAA December 30 as part of their annual New Years’ series. The Terriers are 3-0-1 against the Millionaires this year, but the games have been close and the Mils will be looking to continue their turnaround as of late and are sitting only eight points back of the Terriers after some struggles in late November and December. Heading into Christmas spirits are up at the FAA as the Terriers have a serious chance to contend for a title and will have the goal of trying to secure home ice advantage and first in the league with two months left in the season. It is early, but right now it is good to be a Yorkton Terrier fan.

Jr. Raiders lose in home tournament final to open year By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer With a talented group of returning grade ten players and incoming grade nines the YRHS Jr. Raiders basketball team opened its season by hosting a home tournament filled with some of the best HS programs in the province. Teams from all over the province and Brandon’s Crocus Plains came to the YRHS in early season action and the Raiders started their young season off strong despite going through a learning curve with their offensive and defensive schemes. The Raiders opened up their 2012/13 season with a Friday night clash with Regina’s Johnson Wildcats. The Raiders had struggles with turnovers and Johnson hit some timely three pointers throughout the game, but the Raiders size advantage and hustle on the defensive and offensive glass kept them close all game before clutch free throws at the end of the game tied things up and sent it into overtime. In overtime, the Raiders continued to dominate on defense and in the rebounding department despite having two players fouled out including guard Ryan Krochak, one of the team’s best defenders. In the end timely shooting from Nick Payne and offensive rebounding from Caleb Bymak and Peter Kozushka led the Raiders to a 56-53 overtime win and a spot in the tournament semifinals against Brandon’s Crocus Plains high school. In the semifinal the Raiders once again used their size advantage and hard nosed play to an easy win. Krochak had another excellent defensive game racking up four steals in one quarter while Payne wrapped things up with a seven point run on his own in the fourth quarter as the Raiders won 61-37 and took on Regina Thom who beat Moose Jaw Peacock in the other semifinal matchup. In the final the Raiders finally met up with a team that matched them physically as a Thom team with a big frontcourt and deep bench gave the Raiders problems as they lost the advantage in the rebounding department they had in the first two games. Still, the Raiders battled for much of the first half before hot shooting from Thom put the lead to a twenty plus point margin that was just too much for the Raiders to overcome, making them settle for second place in what was a promising opening weekend for the Raiders despite the letdown of losing in the final. “We played really hard and let them get ahead with them shooting a high percentage and we just couldn’t make up that cushion we gave them” said Raiders head coach Curtis Spelay. “Peter Kozushka and Caleb

Bymak did a great job for us all weekend crashing the glass and getting rebounds for us all weekend and being aggressive to give us an advantage,” said Spelay. As for a lack of pressing during the final to catch up Spelay explained that their gameplan is more orientated to running in transition on offense so they would prefer not to press in favor of running the floor on offense. Spelay also mentioned that the Raiders being undersized at guard with Krochak and Payne who are both shorter guard players gave

Thom a bit of an advantage on offense in exchange for their offensive rewards on the other end as Krochak and Payne are the team’s primary ball handlers. The Jr. Raiders are off for the Christmas break with practices going on to stay sharp before taking part in the YRHS Sr. Round Robin Tournament the first week back in January with SHHS, Melville and the Sr. Raiders in what will be a test for the Jr. Raiders against much bigger opponents at the high level to start the new year off.

Harvest beat Mintos late at FAA Cont. from Page 19.

Bogdan was busy in the second period again as the Mintos outshot the Harvest 11-4, but Bogdan kept the Harvest in it allowing only one powerplay goal to give his team a chance to mount a comeback in the third. Twenty minutes would determine two very valuable points in the standings and the Harvest would need an inspired performance if they were to come back against a team that dominated much of the 120 minutes the teams played over the weekend. Chase McKersie came up big with a game tying goal early on in the third with the Harvest’s second powerplay goal of the game off assists from Ethan Bear and Daktoa Odgers, who notched two assists on Sunday. Back and forth action continued in the third as the Harvest pulled out all the stops in an attempt to pull off the upset with blocked shots and plenty of forechecking being shown, anything to get the go ahead goal. It finally game as Ethan Bear took a Mintos turnover and turned it into a rocket launcher of a shot from the point that went into the top of the goal and gave the Harvest the go ahead goal and the win. Carson Bogdan was excellent in goal making 26 saves, and the Harvest won with Lynnden Pastachak out for most of the game with an upper body injury picked up blocking a shot, shelfing their leading goal scorer. Ethan Bear was huge in the win, showing the skills that have made him a top prospect of the WHL’s Seattle Thunderbirds. With three goals and nineteen points in 21 games for the Harvest, Bear mentioned that the Thunderbirds are taking notice and are planning on giving him a call up to the WHL in the near future. Injured in training camp with the Thunderbirds, Bear

is happy with how things are going with the Harvest saying “Playing with Jeff (Odgers) has been helpful to me improving my game and it his been a good experience for me and my development as a player.” Odgers was happy with the big win over the Mintos saying, “It feels pretty good to get the win and realistically coming into the weekend this was the goal as Prince Albert is one of the best teams in the league and we did a good job battling hard with a short bench after picking up[ some injuries.” As for the loss and being outshot 40-13 on Saturday Odgers attributed the struggles to getting into some penalty trouble where the Mintos made them pay. The Harvest now look to a big game with the seventh place Argos before the break in a meeting that Odgers mentioned as “Huge as we are trying to chase the Argos and have had a lot of troubles getting wins there so it will be big for us to go there and try to catch up with them in points a bit before the break.” A win would keep the Harvest on pace with the Argos and the Saskatoon Blazers in what is shaping up to be a three team race for the final two playoff spots in the SMAAAHL. The Blazers have the advantage of having some games at hand on the Argos/Harvest for the time being, but a win would put the Harvest in eighth place for the time being an inch them one point away from seventh heading into the break, something that seemed unachievable at the beginning of the year is now a reality. A big win over the league’s best team has made it clear, the Harvest are ready to turn it up and push for the playoffs. With a group of young, hungry players who are just hitting their stride it is hard to see another let down any time soon.

Yorkton Clean Spot Terriers take Whitewood trophy By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer

One of the new Yorkton Novice Hockey League clubs hit the road this weekend as the Yorkton Clean Spot Terriers headed to the Whitewood Novice Tournament to test their mettle outside of the YNHL. The Clean Spot Terriers won three straight games to win the Whitewood Novice Tournament in impressive fashion. The weekend started with a close game against Ezterhazy that nearly derailed the weekend in the opening game of the tournament. Four goals from Reid Pfeifer, and scoring from Madix Vitkauskas and Daxton Kulcsar lifted the Clean Spot Terriers to a 6-5 down to the wire victory and kept their championship hopes alive setting up a meeting with the hosts. Pfeifer once again came up huge for the Terriers scoring five goals with a single from Josh Needham and an assist by Chet Ostapowich contributing to a 6-1 Terriers win over the hosts. Winning both games in their pool moved the Terriers to the gold medal game where they met the Ochapowace Thunder. In this game Ostapowich came up huge for the Terriers with five goals while Pfeifer added a goal and three assists to continue his clutch play on the weekend Emma Edel had three assists, and Owen Bahrey and Chance Happy each had an assist each as the Terriers took the final 6-2. Dray Sobkow was given praise for being strong in net throughout the whole tournament in the wins. Reid Pfiefer was arguably their best player all tournament with Chet Ostapowich coming close in filling a role as a setup man in the first two games then filling in with five timely goals in the final. The Clean Spot Terriers will break for the Christmas holidays before continuing with the YNHL program, practicing with the league’s other four teams and regular season action. Their season will continue until February and wrap up with a YNHL playoff.

YORKTON NOVICE CLEAN SPOT TERRIERS won a tournament in Whitewood with a 3-0 record. Reid Pfiefer and Chet Ostapowich led the team in scoring.
