Building Canada one budget at a time: Breitkreuz It’s not being met with optimism by everyone but according to Yorkton/Melville MP Garry Breitkreuz, the recently announced federal budget is a good one for Canadians and local residents. Breitkreuz says he is pleased with the federal budget, Economic Action Plan 2014, and its focus on job creation, economic growth, and keeping taxes low – along with its plan to get back to balanced budgets by 2015. “While Canada has the strongest job creation record among all G-7 countries, with more than 1 million net new jobs created since the depth of the global recession, too many Canadians are still looking for work,” comments Breitkreuz. “That’s why Economic Action Plan 2014 will continue our government’s focus on creating more jobs and growing the economy in Yorkton-Melville and across the country.” According to our local MP, the NDP and Liberals had been publicly calling for the federal budget to include new tax hikes on Canadians and more deficit spending, but he says Government rejected both demands. “Indeed, Economic Action Plan 2014 contains no new taxes on families and businesses, while also continuing to ensure government spending is as efficient and effective as possible. As we’ve seen in places like Greece and Detroit, not having one’s fiscal house in order can lead to incredible economic instability, dramatic cuts to government programs, and higher taxes.” Economic Action Plan 2014 includes measures Breitkreuz says will support Saskatchewan families and strengthen our economy, while keeping taxes low and returning to balanced budgets in 2015, including: • Launching the Canada Job Grant: so that Canadians can get the skills training they need to get in-demand jobs. • Creating the Canada Apprentice Loan: which will provide apprentices in Red Seal trades access to over $100 million in interest-free loans each year. • Launching a Job Matching Service: this new service will automatically match Canadians looking for work with employers looking to hire them. • Increasing Paid Internships for Young Canadians: investing $55 million to create paid internships for recent graduates in small and medium-sized businesses and in high-demand

“As we’ve seen in places like Greece and Detroit, not having one’s fiscal house in order can lead to incredible economic instability... and higher taxes.” – Garry Breitkreuz fields. • Helping Older Workers Get Back to Work: investing $75 million in the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers to support older workers who want to participate in the job market. • Cutting Red Tape for Small Business: cutting 800,000 pay-
roll remittances for 50,000 small businesses. • Making Landmark Investments in Research & Innovation: $1.5 billion over the next decade for research at universities through the Canada First Research Excellence Fund.
• Conserving Canada’s Natural Heritage: investing in Canada’s national parks and historic canals, conserving recreational fisheries, expanding tax relief for the environmental conservation of lands, encouraging clean energy generation with tax relief to new green
technologies, and more. • Supporting Families: enhancing tax relief for families adopting a child, expanding tax relief for health-related services, capping wholesale wireless rates to make service more affordable, cracking down on cross-border price discrimination, and more. •Strengthening Communities: improving broadband in rural and remote communities, establishing a $200 million National Disaster Mitigation Program to help communities prepare for natural disasters, introducing a Search and Rescue Volunteers Tax Credit, and more. • Standing Up for Victims of Crime: implementing the Victim’s Bill of Rights and proving funding for a DNA-based Missing Persons Index. “Unlike previous governments, who balanced the budget on the backs of the provinces, this government has continued to grow provincial transfers to record levels. For Saskatchewan, the federal budget confirmed that transfers will total $1.4 billion in 2014-15 – a whopping 31 per cent increase from under the previous Liberal government. “We’ve grown federal support to historic levels, and it will continue to grow into the future.” Building Plan Announced

In addition to the budget announcement Breitkreuz says Yorkton and Melville area resident will stand to benefit from $53 billion new Building Canada Plan. Details, which relate to key elements of the New Building Canada Fund, provide provinces, territories and municipalities with the information they need to plan infrastructure projects in their jurisdictions. They include dedicated funding for small communities, provincial-territorial allocations, project categories eligible for support, cost-sharing thresholds and public-private partnership (P3) screening requirements. “This government has proudly made unprecedented investments in Canada’s infrastructure since 2006. I am extremely happy to announce that we have now released specific details about the New Building Canada Plan,” says Breitkreuz. “With the release of these details, our communities have the information needed to develop their local infrastructure priorities and start planning for the years ahead.”

century21plus.ca Aging infrastructure a problem for SaskPower By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer If there is one thing that unites the many different communities and corporations in Saskatchewan it’s the problem of aging infrastructure. SaskPower has to confront the problem head-on in the coming years, and Mike Marsh, VP of Operations and COO of SaskPower spoke at a recent Chamber of Commerce luncheon about the challenges faced by the crown corporation in the coming years. The problem is in part that power consumption is steadily increasing, but the corporation needs the supply to continue to reach the different customers, new and old. Marsh says that there was a 14 per cent increase in the number of customer hookups in 2012, with 2013 numbers set to match that trend, and the record peaks have increased by 200 megawatts as well. There are also two peaks each year, as air conditioner usage becomes more ubiquitous it drives an increased summer peak. The rate of power consumption is expected to increase by 30 per cent in the next 20 years. “Bottom line is, we’re seeing a need for more power, more often, and in many cases by more people,” Marsh says. The issue is supplying that power, something that becomes a challenge as older power generation
units are taken off-line. Marsh explains that they need to be taken off line due to their age and their inability to meet modern environmental standards. Most of the retired facilities will be coal-fire plants, and Marsh says they cannot be replaced by the same kind of plants. Marsh says that environmental responsibility is a priority, and he notes that they are looking at more sustainable options for generation. “Coal as we know today is finished, it’s over... We cannot get a license to build or operate a coal fire station... We have to find new ways to generate power in this province.” Renewable energy research is a priority for the company, Marsh says, and geothermal is one of the options currently being explored to create power for the province. He says that the ecological footprint is small, but it is expensive technology. Beyond generation, aging infrastructure is a problem in terms of distribution as well. It is the cause of 40 per cent of the unplanned outages currently experienced, Marsh reveals. The average age of the 1.25 million power poles in the province is 38 years, for example, but a quarter of them are from the 1950s and beyond the expected life expectancy, which is 50 years. “It’s going to take us 20 years just to get caught up, and get the poles from the 1950s taken care of,”
Building Canada Plan Con’t from Page 1. The New Building Canada Plan, which is expected to launch this spring, is the largest, long-term infrastructure plan in our nation’s history and it will continue to focus on projects that enhance economic growth. Quick Facts • Over $32 billion is specifically available for municipalities through the permanent and indexed Gas Tax Fund and the incremental Goods and Services Tax Rebate for municipalities. • The government’s new plan includes a $14 billion New Building Canada Fund, which will have $10 billion for provinces and territories (with $1 billion directed to small communities under 100,000) and $4 billion for projects of national significance. • Through the P3 Canada Fund, $1.25 billion in new funding is available. In 2007, the Government of Canada provided $33 billion in stable, flexible and predictable funding across the country. In fact, $6 billion under existing programs will continue to flow to projects across the country this year and beyond, and municipalities are also receiving $2 billion a year through the federal Gas Tax Fund. “Through the original Building Canada Plan, infrastructure stimulus measures and other infrastructure initiatives, the federal government has supported more than 43,000 projects in Canada that have created jobs and economic growth and contributed to a higher quality of life for Canadian families,” concludes Breitkreuz.
Marsh says. The challenge right now is meeting the problems of the infrastructure. Marsh says it will not be cheap, and it requires some long term planning to ensure that the process is not painful for consumers. He does caution that it will be an expensive process as SaskPower tries to bring itself up to date. “We need to invest about a billion dollars a year in capital in order to get this job done,” Marsh says. He says that rate increases are inevitable, and says that without them the crown corporation will see losses and customers would see larger increases in the future. Marsh says that costs are otherwise competitive with similar utilities in other provinces.

NEW TELEVISIONS – The Yorkton and District Nursing home recently saw the need to update the TVs in their common areas. The residents and staff banded together to undertake a number of projects to raise money for the new TVs, selling perogies, food and hot dogs, getting local businesses to support the project, and holding a raffle to raise funds. The $4,200 raised purchased seven televisions for the different houses. The Health Foundation contributed six stands with integrated fireplaces, which cost approximately $2,500 total.

New help for families – resource center opens By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Yorkton Family Resource Center, located at SIGN on Broadway, is about supporting the region’s families. The new center recently held its grand opening. Donna Coleman Trombley, SE RIC Coordinator, says that the center is about promoting early learning, family wellness and positive parenting. “The center is a place for programming, but it’s also a welcoming gathering place for parents and their children, where they can come and interact and play with them, and connect
with other parents and families and feel supported,” Coleman Trombley says. She emphasizes that the center is available for everyone, with programming focused around parenting education and early childhood development, as well as ways to connect parents and children with the programming they might need in other agencies. The goal is to be there for all the families in the city, whatever they might need. “Maybe you’re a new mom and dad and it’s your first time with a child, it doesn’t come with a guide. How do you get that support?
We are trying to provide that support in an atmosphere that is welcoming, and there is not just a place for children to play, but for people to interact, and parents to play with their children.” The theme of the opening day was “Champions Start Small,” with the Olympics inspiring the opening day festivities. The day began with a torch relay down Broadway, and kids were invited to get pictures with an Olympic theme. There was a membership drive as well, and Coleman Trombley says that membership keeps parents in the loop about what resources available
Watch out for highway workers While highway construction is usually associated with the warm summer months, drivers should be aware that certain types of work can take place year-round. “We may be in the middle of winter, but crews are still out there working on bridges and installing culverts,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris reminds. “Remember that no matter the season, you must always slow to 60 km/hr when you see the black and white speed signs.” While cold temperatures present challenges, certain aspects of construction can benefit from wintry weather. For example, cranes can be placed on frozen waterways and used to hoist beams into place during bridge construction. Bridge projects currently underway include work on Highway 14 near Kinley, on Highway 10 south of Yorkton and on Highway 26 south of St. Walburg. These are just a few examples of the work currently taking place, and motorists are reminded to keep an eye out for work zones when they travel. To find general information about work zones in Saskatchewan, please visit www. saskatchewan.ca/live/transportation/work-zones. Travel information about construction, emergency road closures, the status of ferries and barges and other road activities is always available on the Highway Hotline at www.saskatchewan.ca/live/ transportation/highway-hotline. It’s also available by calling the SaskTel cellular network at *ROAD, toll-free across Canada at 1-888-335-7623 and via the Highway Hotline mobile website at http://hotline.gov.sk.ca/sk/map/mobile. 14024MK00
and what programming is coming to the center. She says that the goal is to also have members drive programming and have the center respond to local needs. “You might be an immigrant family moving to Yorkton, what kind of support do you need to connect and be part of our community?” There are a number of community partners involved in the center,
Coleman Trombley says, and they will be a major part of the different programming on offer. She says families can pick and choose what they want to take advantage of, whether that’s the programs on offer, the different professional supports or just coming to enjoy the play area to have fun as a family. “A parent said this just feels like home, and we really feel like that is
what we are trying to capture here, a place where families feel like they are at home, and they can feel supported in building a loving relationship with their children and their families.” She says every family is different, and they intend to celebrate this, as well as try to be responsive to all the different needs a local family might have.
Local artists get funding Two artists from Yorkton have been awarded grants from the Saskatchewan Arts Board. Media artist Daniel Redenbach has been awarded a $3,731 Independent Artists grant to complete pre-production and production phases of the short dramatic narrative film, The Cold Hearted. Musician Angus Vincent has been awarded a $3,000 Indigenous Pathways Initiative grant to commit himself to writing, composing and rehearsing original songs. Independent Artists grants support the creation, development or performance of new work in any art form, professional development for artists and research in the arts. These grants support the ongoing development of artistic practice in Saskatchewan as well as independent curators and critics in all disciplines. The Indigenous Pathways Initiative grant program aims to increase access to public funding by Indigenous artists in Saskatchewan, either to develop their artistic/cultural practices or to share their art, skills and teachings. For the quarter ending December 31,
2013, the Saskatchewan Arts Board awarded over 140 grants to individuals and organizations, totaling more than $1.2 million. Arts Board funding supports a variety of initiatives, including organizations that provide ongoing programs in the arts, the creative work of professional artists, community art projects and the engagement of professional artists to work in schools with students and teachers. The Saskatchewan Arts Board was established in 1948 as the first agency of its kind in North America and second in the world to the Arts Council of Great Britain. In the decades since then, it has continued as a leader in Canada and builds on this strong tradition to meet ongoing opportunities for public investment in the arts community. The Arts Board’s mission is to cultivate an environment in which the arts thrive for the benefit of everyone in Saskatchewan.

Celebrating Sask. heritage We have a rich heritage worth celebrating. Where would we be after all were it not for those who came before us? To keep our history alive means the need to preserve and protect, thus the announcement of recent government funding to do just that. Twenty-five projects were announced that will share in $258,000 through Saskatchewan Heritage Foundation grants. Projects were chosen based on restoring heritage assets and promoting heritage conservation and range from $40,000 to revitalize the Melfort Post Office to $1,000 to restore the chimney of the CN Station in Eatonia Heritage Park. The announcement comes as the Government of Saskatchewan proclaims February 16 to 22 as Heritage Week to celebrate and raise awareness of Saskatchewan’s heritage. “Heritage Week reminds us that Saskatchewan has a diverse and exciting history,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Kevin Doherty comments. “Our government recognizes that while the future of Saskatchewan is bright, it is important to remember our past. Programs like Main Street, through heritage conservation and economic development, help communities revitalize their historic downtowns and ensure we preserve our stories and history for generations to come.” Heritage Week represents the opportunity for the people of Saskatchewan to celebrate the unique stories, traditions and places that make us who we are. It’s a chance to recognize the powerful ways that heritage and culture bring communities together, creating a strong foundation from which to move toward the future. Information about Heritage Week events happening across the province can be found at: heritagesask.ca/blog/ events. We have an amazing, growing province worth celebrating – let’s get out and do it!
One for all, all for one, stop profiling The way I see it...
Good for the mom! In a time that seems to be riddled with stories of inequality and segregation (in a misguided attempt to do ‘the politically correct’ thing, at least one family sees that the answer is not to single out, but rather to integrate and work together as a whole. A Somalian mother has taken on the Toronto District School Board, not because she wants special treatment for her son who is struggling somewhat in school, but rather because she wants him to be treated just like everyone else. School trustees recently announced they are reviewing policies that could see the addition of a “Somali Heritage Month” and a Somali focused curriculum. Supporters say because of a higher than average drop-out rate, intervention is ‘urgently needed.’ But Suban Abdullahi (the mom) says measures like this will only serve to “stigmatize” children and others of Somali descent. I think she’s right. Mrs. Abdullahi (on the school board) says: “If they really want to help, why not help all the students who are failing?” Precisely! Students from all walks of life are
struggling and dropping out. There are problems that extend far past language barriers and culture, many that go unaddressed until it’s too late. There are also success stories from all walks of life (in spite of the odds). The family also has Shannon Deveau Abdullahi three children attending university. This isn’t really a racial issue, nor should it be. Reportedly, there are about 5,000 Somali-speaking students attending Toronto District schools – the majority of whom were born in Canada. Rather than single them out, why not give ALL who are having a tough go an extra hand? As Ms. Abdullahi argues, the majority of Somali students are graduating (75 per cent) so why not direct resources towards ALL children who are failing, not just a select few? “It’s not doing anything but harming them,” she says. “It is isolating them. It’s showing the other children that the Somali descent children are not capable.” If 75 per cent are doing well... help the 25 per cent who aren’t. Help ALL students who aren’t. We are living in one country – Canada. If we keep dividing and profiling what good are really doing for the nation as a whole?
Column
Commonly used words should not be trademarked King, the makers of phone game Candy Crush Saga, have been going on a trademark tear recently. If there is software which contains the word Candy or Saga in the title, they will initiate legal action, even though they have yet to gain the trademark for either word. The company says they are just trying to protect their intellectual property, and given that they are in the highly competitive and frequently shady mobile app market they’re somewhat justified in trying to prevent competitors from getting their market. However, the trademark applications have several issues. Even if we limit use of the word to games, Candy and Saga have been in use long before King ever dreamed of doing a candy-based puzzle title. Saga has been used since at least the mid-90s by Japanese developer Square, and board game Candy Land was adapted to Windows PCs in 1998, after existing in a traditional board game version since 1949. So already these very common words have been used by similar products long before King was even incorporated in 2003. This on its own should invalidate any attempt to try to trademark the words for the company’s own use, given the pre-existing marks in question, but King has been pressing forward with their action anyway. The other problem, the one that affects those of us
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger who are not actually in the mobile gaming business, is what this means for the actual use of words. Take saga for example. The word comes from Icelandic, and while it’s most commonly associated with tales of brave Vikings in large battles, it means story. Saga has it’s own connotations – the recently released Banner Saga, one of the titles King objects to, trades on the association with Vikings being brave, telling a tale of intimidating bearded men roaming the wilderness – but even if taken on its own it still refers to some form of narrative. Candy Crush Saga is hardly an epic narrative, or any narrative for that manner. There is candy, it gets
crushed, people lose hours to a silly little casual game on their phones. One can create their own story using the power of their imagination if they so choose, but it’s not very high on the list of priorities for either developer or player. Saga, in King’s estimation, should be a word that identifies the King family of products – everything they make has the word appended to the end, no matter how little sense it makes – rather than the actual definition of saga as it has been for hundreds of years. That is an impediment to language. Trademarking commonly used words like candy and saga just makes it difficult to use those words when referring to much else, no matter what their definition was beforehand. It’s worse when such words are trademarked without any regard to their actual meaning or common usage. Whatever saga might have meant before, the meaning is discarded when it becomes just another bit of branding. I don’t blame King for wanting to protect their intellectual property, but the way they are going about it is dangerous, especially if a precedent is set. Words within the common usage should not be allowed to be trademarked and their dictionary definitions should not be subverted to allow them to become another flimsy bit of branding.

Harper vs. Flaherty, what’s up? Budget is lacking To the Editor: No government can let any daylight appear between the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance. The stability and credibility of every administration depends in large measure upon these two individuals being absolutely of one mind. They can argue policy behind closed doors, but in public they must speak with one voice. There is no such solidarity any more among the Harper Conservatives. In the 2011 election, Mr. Harper announced in no uncertain terms that once he could claim a balanced budget, he would implement “Income Splitting” for couples with children under age-18. He could not have been more explicit. And since that campaign, his obsession with austerity has been entirely aimed toward that end. That’s why he’s been slashing everything from food inspection, trade offices and police training to search and rescue, environmental protection and veterans. That’s why there’s a firesale frenzy to sell-off federal assets. That’s why he has delayed military equipment and infrastructure investments. That’s why he jackedup job-killing EI payroll taxes to excessive levels. It was all to allow Mr. Harper to claim a balanced budget in the spring of an election year (2015), followed by the quick announcement
of Income Splitting as his political campaign platform. But it’s falling apart. In the first place, his claim of a balanced budget is artificial and unsustainable because it’s not based on durable economic growth, but mostly on a series of gimmicky one-time measures concocted to coincide conveniently in 2015 (e.g., high EI taxes, asset sales, military procurement delays and stalled infrastructure funding). So Mr. Harper’s “balance” is built on quicksand. Secondly, and just as serious, he is now being contradicted by Finance Minister Flaherty on the wisdom of that commitment to Income Splitting. Within hours of his own budget speech on Tuesday, Mr. Flaherty was dissing the Prime Minister’s long-standing promise. He described it as expensive and disproportionately biased in favour of the wealthy. Many independent analysts – from the C.D. Howe Institute on the right to the Centre for Policy Alternatives on the left – have also panned Mr. Harper’s proposal as bad public policy. Only a small fraction of all Canadian families would qualify for any benefit – 85 per cent (i.e., the vast majority of the middle class) would get nothing at all. Flaherty’s surprising outburst quickly exposed some deep rifts in senior Conservative ranks. Backbenchers and Cabinet Ministers started lining up immediately to support either the Finance Minister or the promise they all campaigned
on during the last election. The two cannot be reconciled. Has the Prime Minister’s promise turned into a lie? For his part, Jason Kenney came out quickly and bluntly to oppose Flaherty and support Income Splitting, claiming that “Conservatives always keep their promises”. Oh yeah? If their promises are always good, then where is the Health Care WaitTimes Guarantee the Conservatives pledged in 2006? Why did they kill Income Trusts and cutback on Old Age Security – two things they solemnly said they would never to do? What happened to their more recent promise to cut taxes on diesel fuel? And what about their commitment to regulations to reduce carbon emissions in the oil and gas sector? Where is the ethanol plant the Conservatives promised near Prince Albert and what about that pasta plant they promised in Regina? Multiple Harper promises have been broken. Jim Flaherty has just driven a stake through the heart of another. And in the process, the fiscal integrity of the government has been badly damaged. Who now has the authority on financial issues? Can either Mr. Flaherty or the Prime Minister be trusted? Apparently not. Ralph Goodale, MP, Wascana, SK.
Lost opportunities, old thinking
To the Editor:
Saskatchewan could have paired Saskatchewan wind power with Manitoba hydro. Our premier chose instead to invest $1.2 Billion of OUR tax money into a carbon capture and storage project that will generate a paltry 110 MW and burn 30 per cent more coal. We are also spending an unknown amount of OUR money into research on experimental small nuclear reactors. The Americans saw the opportunity to pair their abundant wind power generating facilities with Manitoba hydro. Minnesota Power and Manitoba hydro have inked a deal under which electricity from excess wind power in North Dakota can be
stored in Manitoba‘s hydro reservoir when loads and prices are low, with the potential for selling that power back into the huge Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator at times when needs are high. Manitoba is already a participant in MISO, with some of the lowest electricity rates in North America. The deal involves building a new $1 Billion transmission line with the cost split. Minnesota will build the U.S. portion and Manitoba the Canadian portion, and at the same time Manitoba is going to build new power dams that create more storage capability. Manitoba Hydro says they are making the battery bigger, enabling more two way trade in electricity.
Saskatchewan could have chosen to go this route. We could have chosen to encourage production of renewables with feed in tariffs and a preference for local production. Rural communities would have been stabilized as well as the incomes of farmers, ranchers and First Nations. Our greenhouse gas emissions per capita, the highest in Canada and among the highest of any jurisdiction anywhere, would have dropped. We could have built the connecting lines with Manitoba hydro. Wind and hydro are a great combination to provide a complimentary, stable electrical system with very low greenhouse gas implications. Saskatchewan is going to double our wind power
production- to a whole 200 MW. No manufacturing. North Dakota has 1680 MW of wind capacity with about 11,000 MW in various stages of planning and development. Capital investment in wind power is about $3.3 Billion with 4 manufacturing facilities providing over 1,000 jobs. Lease payments to landowners are about $5 Million annually. We could still try to negotiate with Manitoba for future hydro development power and develop our abundant renewable energy resources. Do you think our leaders have made wise decisions for the long term benefit of Saskatchewan and wise use of OUR tax money? Mike Bray, Indian Head SK.
Sask. farmers reject Ritz’s puppets
To the Editor:
In the Saskatchewan Wheat and Barley Commission Elections, farmers have rejected Ritz’s poster children candidates! Cherilyn Nagel Jolly who seemed glued to the Minister’s side when he was killing the single desk of the CWB and stealing its assets, was not able to win a seat on the Wheat Commission. Even though, she was handpicked and appointed by the Wall government as the commission’s interim chair. Her counterpart in the Barley Commission, fellow Western Ca-
nadian Wheat Grower Association member, Bill Cooper, did not run in the barley election but his desired candidates did not get elected either. Even though, he also was handpicked by the Wall government as an interim appointed director for the Barley Commission, Federal Ag Minister Ritz’s number two cheerleader Gerrid Gust, was not able to garner enough farmer votes to get elected either. It would appear that Premier Wall may have to question his Deputy Ag Minister’s choice of candidates. If this former Western
Canadian Wheat Grower Association member thought these were the people that farmers supported she was dead wrong. Not one of the appointed directors was able to get elected by farmers. It’s interesting what happens when you give farmers the ability to vote and elect their own directors and direction! Too bad there weren’t more opportunities for farmers to vote on the direction agriculture has taken in the past few years!! Kyle Korneychuk, Pelly, SK.
Consider microfinancing to fight poverty To the Editor: Near 2.5 billion people around the world continue to be without any access to financial services. Most of them are
very poor and would climb out of poverty if only they would be provided with access to microfinance and microfinance graduation programs. Microfinance can be
considered as an international development success story, with steady growth since the 1970’s. I think Prime minister Stephen Harper and minister of International Develop-
ment Christian Paradis should seriously consider it in their programs to fight poverty. Bruno Marquis, Gatineau QC.
To the Editor:
The Federal Budget recently released by Finance Minister Jim Flaherty leaves out many crucial areas, including those pertaining to retirees and pensioners. The budget put forth by Harper’s Conservative government highlights cuts to military funding and funding for rural internet connection but includes no mention of the aging population. Canada does not prioritize or protect the income of aging Canadians. Canada is the only G7 country without a national housing policy. Bill C-400, an act to ensure secure, adequate, accessible and affordable housing for Canadians was presented for a vote on Feb. 27, 2013. The vote turned out 129 for and 153 against with all votes against coming from the Conservative party. Further evidence includes Bill C-501; “An Act to amend the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act”. The bill which would entitle employees to termination, severance and pension moneys ahead of other creditors did not become law. In the last budget the eligibility for Old Age Security was delayed from age 65 to age 67 without any financial justification. This budget showed that Canada does not act upon the requested advice of experts. In November 2006, the Special Senate Committee on Aging was created with a broad mandate to review a wide range of complex issues to determine if Canada is providing the right programs and services at the right time to the individuals who need them. One of the recommendations suggested the government “provide leadership and coordination through initiatives such as a National Integrated Care Initiative, a National Caregiver Strategy, a National Pharmacare Program and a federal transfer to address the needs of provinces with the highest proportion of the aging population.” Addressing issues in these categories would resonate with Canadians number one concern, which is Health Care. One positive move was to provide $305 million over five years to enhance Broadband in rural areas. This is at least recognition of the issue but the announcement is not big on details. 5mb per second would not be welcome news to anyone living in an urban centre. We will see if this is enough to enable aging Canadians in rural areas to have the access to information at a reasonable cost that residents of large municipalities have. This federal government has again chosen to deny aging Canadians the care and respect they deserve today. We will see this government play Santa Claus before next year’s federal election. The election results will tell them clearly that they were “a day late and a dollar short.” Further information relating to the National Pensioners Federation will be posted on the website, nationalpensionersfederation.ca, following the official launch this Friday. We are happy to announce this launch as the site will allow for a more simplistic and user friendly experience. We encourage all members and the public to regularly visit the site for events relating to the National Pensioners Federation and newsworthy updates when available. Herb John, President of the National Pensioners Federation.

One-for-One Rule cuts red tape Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz

The government knows that nothing irritates a business owner as much as the time it takes to comply with what seems an ever-lengthening list of federal regulations, which include payroll, labour and trade. That’s why we’ve just introduced legislation to enshrine the One-for-One Rule, which has been in effect since April 1, 2012. We realized that one of the most important things we can do to help Canadian businesses thrive, particularly in this time of global economic uncertainty, is to make the regulatory process as smooth and pain-free as possible.
Under the One-for-One Rule, regulators must remove a regulation each time they introduce a new regulation that imposes administrative burden on business. The regulation removed must be equal in its burden to the one implemented. This has given regulators a chance to reduce the number of regulations currently on the books, while still guarding the health and safety of Canadians. Introducing time-saving new measures like single windows and electronic submissions will help Canadian businesses thrive. It will also save money. In the 2012–13 fiscal year, the One-for-
One Rule reduced administrative burden on business by about $3 million. That represents 98,000 hours saved for business annually, with a net of six regulations being eliminated from the government’s books. The trend continued throughout 2013. By December 12, under the One-for-One Rule, we had reduced administrative burden by almost $20 million and achieved a net reduction of 19 regulations. We’ve also created service standards for 24 high-volume regulatory authorizations, covering more than 60,000 transactions with businesses each year. With these reforms, our regulatory system has become more predictable, with 32 forward regulatory plans, containing more than 400 regulatory changes, now posted on the Web. Enshrining the One-forOne Rule in law is part of the commitment we made
to Canadians when we launched the Red Tape Reduction Action Plan in October 2012. That plan, currently the most ambitious red tape-cutting initiative in the world, can increase Canadian competitiveness and free business to innovate, grow, and create jobs. It underscores Canada’s reputation as one of the best places in the world to do business and invest. Minister Tony Clement, President of the Treasury Board, has given the direction we’re taking in this area a thumbs up. He has noted that: “Canada is the first country in the world to give the One-forOne Rule the added muscle of legislation. The Rule has already saved Canadian businesses thousands of hours in time that businesses spend on dealing with regulatory red tape.” Fewer irritants for business owners mean better business all around – and that’s a good thing for all Canadians.

It’s Private Service Home Week
Saskatchewan is celebrating the contribution of approved private service home providers during Approved Private Service Home Week from February 17-23. Approved home providers care for and support residents with cognitive, mental health or physical disabilities and assist them to continue to reside in family home settings throughout the province. “Approved home providers and their families share their homes and their lives with some of our province’s most vulnerable citizens,” Social Services Minister June Draude details. “I am pleased to recognize their efforts to help make Saskatchewan the best place to live in Canada for people with disabilities.” “Providing a caring home environment and a strong community connec-
tion is essential for those living in our mental health approved homes,” Health Minister Dustin Duncan says. “Our government is committed to patientand family-centered care that supports our growth agenda goal of improving the quality of life for all Saskatchewan people.” Saskatchewan Approved Private Homes, Inc. (SAPH) is a non-profit organization that offers information and support to approved private service home providers, and promotes approved home development in the province. “It is very appropriate that we are celebrating these homes during the week that begins with the Family Day holiday,” SAPH Executive Director Iris Miller Dennis adds. “Through their dedication and compassion, approved home providers create warm, family environments for people with disabilities.”

Life is all about making choices, not all are easy You may have heard the saying: “life is like a road.” Some roads are rough, some are smooth. Some roads are long, other roads are short. Some roads are full of turns, twists and valleys, while other roads are straight. In our life time we will travel on many different types of roads. Some roads will bring us enjoyment. They will bring us to the perfect job, perfect white house with a picket fence, a spouse and wonderful children and grandchildren. Some of the other roads we will travel will bring us fears and tears. This road of life may bring us heart aches, loss of jobs, loss of friends, death of loved ones and many lonely nights. Life is the road we all travel. Each one of us will have a different map placed before us and each route will be different. Without a doubt there will be frustrations, fearful times and there are going to be challenges along the way. I recall one year we went to Albany New York. We did not know the area well so we were going to follow my brother in law. Before long we got separated from him and we lost sight of him. It did not take long before we came to a “Y” in the road. Now which way do we go? Which lane do we have to be in to get to our location? I looked on the map and

FROM MORNING UNTIL EVENING... Column by Margaret Anne Yost did not even see a “Y” on the map. My husband called, ‘which way do I go?’ All I could say was, ‘you pick a road. I can’t see where we are’. As it was he had picked the right lane and the right road and we found the way to our destination. Often this does not happen and we may have to travel many miles before we can even turn around again. We have all traveled by car and there are times come to a ‘Y’ in the road and we will have to decide do we go right or turn left on our journey. On our road of life we also come to those Y’s in the road and we will have to make a decision: which way we will travel, do we go left or do we go to the right.

I think if we have no destination in mind it really does not matter which road we take; any road will do. But if we have a destination in mind, we need to take the right road. So what is our destination? God has plan for each one of us. Some days we will feel as though life is a set of stumbling blocks. Some times that will depend on how we look at these blocks. Some will see these as stumbling blocks and other people will see stepping stones. Trust in God and He will carry you to new heights beyond anything you have ever dreamed. Put your hand in the hand of the one who can calm the seas, and brighten our future. Keep a positive outlook and keep praying especially when the road gets rough.

The farmer is trained, moves on and settles in
Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This one of a series on getting settled in Hazel Dell. WOW! There is a new restaurant in Preeceville, called Veselas International Kitchen. Marion and I had lunch there the other day. We were welcomed by one of the owners and hostess Lucie. Her husband and co-owner Joey rules in the kitchen where he creates all these culinary delights. He makes his own delicious pasta and Lucie does all the baking of the yummy buns, breads and pies, and she’s also the creator of the desserts. The décor and the ambiance took me right back to Europe. The wood paneling on the bottom half of the walls combined with the warm and soft colour on the top with all the pictures and paintings, made the atmosphere very cozy and intimate. The menu items are listed on a large chalkboard and we were also presented with a daily luncheon menu. Good selections all around! Marion had the Bacon, Potato and Spinach Pie and I had the Lasagna, both dishes tasted wonderful. You must go there and have the Apple Strudel! The most delicious Apple Strudel that I have ever tasted! In my humble opinion, the service and the food presentation are just exquisite! Ole wanted to impress Lena his date by taking her to the new International Restaurant. Lucie showed them to a cozy table and left the menus with them. Ole ordered an expensive bottle of fine Italian red wine. They sipped the wine while enjoying each other’s company. Lucie came to take the order, Ole smiled at Lena and said to her that he would order something very special, whereupon he turned to Lucie and ordered two of the delicious Joey Veselas. “I’m sorry Sir,” said Lucie, “but that’s my husband!” Well, my wife decided that we should get a pony (young miniature horse) for little Casey, train it up so it will be ready when Casey is ready to ride. She bought Duke, a three year old that has had children on his back while being led around on a lead rope. We had a Duke before, so I suggested we make this little horse an Earl, but no, he stays a Duke. Marion will get him trained with a child saddle. The maximum weight he can carry is about 100 pounds, so I can’t ride him! Lorissa Petras who resides on a neighbouring farm sold him to us, and led him over. Marion put him in the closed corral. That lasted about 12 hours, and then somehow he got out and tried to introduce himself to Mickey and Spur. It didn’t go so well. He first tried the “stand way back and just look” approach, but he was ignored. He must have taken that for being accepted, so he went to the feeder to get a mouthful. Wrong! Both big
horses converged on him and were telling him with their body language emphasized with kicking hind hooves, that they feed first, then Molly the moose and then maybe Duke, if they will allow it! It might take a while, but they will soon all be friends. My twin brother reminded me recently about our first experience with a horse. It was way back in 1949 and we were six years old. We lived in an apartment in a two story wooden villa, and our apartment was heated by a stove burning wood and coke. Simply stated, coke is produced from the process of extracting trapped gas and oil from coal, it burns cleaner than coal and produces a lot of heat. The coke was delivered every fall by an old gentleman with the name of Albin Upp. He used a horse drawn cart, and with the help of a portable corrugated steel chute, he would slide the coke down through the basement window and into a special coke bin. His horse would be standing very quiet while Albin was sliding the coke to the bin. We picked apples and pears that had fallen off the fruit trees in the garden, and fed them to his nice and friendly horse. However, most of the fruit had started to ferment, causing the horse to get a little inebriated, and it also resulted in some rather potent farts. Upon completion of the coke delivery, Albin would climb up into the cart and try to steer the horse down the street while the horse would release some stinkers right into Albin’s nose! But the horse had become somewhat unsteady on its feet veering all over the street, so Albin had to jump down and try to lead the horse in a straight line all the while talking to him. We were the last delivery and Albin’s stable was not far from where we lived. We would follow behind and amuse ourselves with the farting horse and Albin’s effort to keep the horse straight. It finally dawned on old Albin what my brother and I were doing to his horse, and we were stricken from his list and dad had to start buying the coke from a different supplier. This supplier delivered the coke by truck in burlap bags, and old dad had to make his own chute to send the coke to the bin, bags and all. This reminded me of a “true” story: When President George Bush was visiting Queen Elizabeth, she decided to take him for a tour of London in the Royal Carriage. The carriage was being pulled by six Royal Stallions and one of them suddenly passed gas. It sounded like a 21-gun salute it was so loud! The smell permeated the inside of the carriage and the Queen was totally devastated. “I apologize profusely for the terrible smell inside the carriage,” she said. “Oh, that’s alright,” said President Bush, “for a minute there I thought it was the horse!”

was quickly negated as an Adam Neibrandt penalty shortly after the Harvest game tying goal would put the Stars right on the powerplay. From there the Stars would retake the lead as Spencer Bast would score his second goal of the game with the extra man to put Battlefords back in front 3-2.

Terriers stay in first place, look ahead to final push By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer Deep into the final stretch towards the SJHL playoffs as defending champions the Yorkton Terriers are more than aware of how tough the February swing can be. With nearly every team battling for some sort of playoff positioning or in the mix of a division title race for a first round bye games in February are only slightly less competitive than the real playoffs come early March. After a loss to the Humboldt Broncos last Tuesday, Terriers head coach Trent Cassan pointed to the team’s weekend set against the La Ronge Ice Wolves and Melfort Mustangs as matchups that are tougher than a casual observer might think when looking at the team’s positioning in the standings. “The way the playoff format in this league works everyone usually is right in the fight until the end of the season and with so many teams fighting for seeding for the playoffs road trips can be difficult because you are going to get your opponent’s best effort almost every night,” says Cassan. The trip would also be an overnight affair for the Terriers as they would travel far north to La Ronge before playing in Melfort to close the weekend. Cassan mentioned that the Terriers play very little of these trips prior to heading on the road. “I don’t know the exact number, but we have the benefit of not having to do to many overnight trips thanks to our geographical location where we are close to everything,” says Cassan who also mentioned that the change in routine isn’t a problem for a veteran team. “We have a lot of guys who have been playing together for three, four years now and have been going on road trips together forever so overnight trips are just another part of our schedule.” That would be put to the test on Friday as the Terriers failed to get on the scoreboard in the opening period during their meeting with the Ice Wolves, trying to find their legs Yorkton would outshoot La Ronge 15-13 but could not find the quality scoring chance to beat starting goalie Tyler Fuhr. La Ronge would draw first blood in the second period as Daulton Siwak would give the Ice Wolves the lead six
minutes in. The goal would awake the Terriers as Zach Zadorozniak would answer less than ten minutes later with a late second period goal to tie the game at 1-1. Chase Norrish would score with just 27 seconds left in the second period to give the Terriers a 2-1 lead and the momentum heading into the third making Siwak’s early goal and the scoreless first period an afterthought. The goals would stop coming again in the third, but with under five minutes Dylan Johnson would find the insurance tally on the powerplay to give himself his tenth goal of the season. La Ronge would find a goal to get back within one, but it would be too little too late as Tayler Thompson would put salt in the wounds with a goal with one second left to wrap things up in a 4-2 Terrier win to get back in the win column. Kale Thomson made 33 saves on 35 shots in the win while Fuhr was given the loss for La Ronge stopping 34 shots of 38. The win would be the 27th of the season for Thomson who will be chasing the 30 win plateau in his final Junior year. Thomson would have a chance for win number 28 the following night in Melfort as the Terriers would take on the Kramer Division leaders in a battle between the strongest and weakest conferences in the SJHL with the Sherwood Division leading Terriers having 20 more points than the Mustangs heading into their final meeting of the season. Brett Boehm would open the game’s scoring with his 25th of the year just 45 seconds into play to give the Terriers the lead. It would be the only goal of the opening period as Yorkton controlled the tempo and dictated the game by outshooting Melfort 11-5. Things would fall apart in the second period as three unanswered goals from Melfort would flip the game on its head as Anthony Pickering would score twice, including the goal to give the Mustangs the lead in a three goal explosion over the opening ten minutes of the second period. Not to be outdone the Terriers got back into the game thanks to the steady guidance of one of their veteran leaders as Tayler Thompson would score his 19th of the year to cut the deficit to just one goal.
In the third period the Terriers would find their hero in an unlikely place as a 2013/14 rookie would score his first SJHL goal late on in the season as defenseman Holden Cronin’s
first league tally would level things at 3-3 with just under ten minutes left. Cronin’s goal would earn the Terriers a point as they could not find the winner over the final nine minutes and
overtime before losing in the shootout. The three point weekend would keep Yorkton ahead of Melville for first in the league as while as the Sherwood Division. At the time of
writing Wednesday Yorkton was in first place with 71 points through 51 games, good enough for a one point lead over the rival Mils with two games at hand.
STAYING ON TOP. A win over La Ronge and a shootout loss in Melfort against the Mustangs earned the Terriers three crucial points out of four over the weekend to stay atop the SJHL standings. Yorkton has a one point lead with two weeks left in the regular season. Photo Credit: Peter Baran.

Harvest close to clinching SMAAAHL playoff spot Cont. from Page 15. Bast would continue to be the thorn in the side of the Harvest later in the period as another powerplay goal would give the Macklin, SK native a hat trick and put the Stars up 4-2. Bast was not done there as one of the most deadly scorers in the SMAAAHL would put the game away for good early in the third period with his fourth goal of the night in an eventual 6-2 final score that looked like it could have been much different early in the second after the Harvest fought so hard to tie the game. On Sunday the Harvest would take the positives of their early second period into a game where goaltender Carson Bogdan would continue to carry his struggling team. Outshot 17-9 in the opening period, Bogdan would allow the first goal of the game to Josh LaFambroise but that would be all as the veteran would settle in to deny every Stars opportunity in a flurry in the first from Battlefords. Bogdan’s timely saves would allow another veteran in Chase McKersie to tie the game with just 2:14 left in the first to steal a period in which they were outplayed by the more talented Stars. Bogdan’s performance in net and McKersie’s goal would prove to be the turning point for the Harvest in a game where they needed to get points to continue to keep the Hounds at bay for eighth
place as the hosts game out flying to atart the second period. With Bogdan keeping the pucks out of the net, Jaden Kreklewich would put them in front on a feed from Brennan Watson to give the Harvest their first lead of the weekend. Moments later on the powerplay another vet in Levi Morin would give the Harvest a 3-1 lead with a powerplay goal. Still getting outshot 16-10 in the second period, the Harvest couldn’t shake off the Stars that easily. Spencer Bast would score his fifth goal of the weekend less than a minute after Morin’s marker to cut the Harvest’s confidence and send the game into the third as a one goal affair. Holding onto a one goal lead, Bogdan would do his best to keep his team in front despite facing massive pressure from Battlefords in another game where the Harvest were massively outshot. After keeping them at bay for nearly half of the third period the lead would be broken as Pernitsky would tie the game up for the Stars and send the game into overtime. Bogdan would make 45 out of 48 saves in regulation to save the Harvest a much needed point, but they would need a goal within five minutes to get the much needed win to end the weekend. In the four on four overtime period it would be McKersie to play the
2014 Sask Winter Games update By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The 2014 Saskatchewan Winter Games are well underway and Yorkton’s representation on Team Parkland is already paying in dividends as the Parkland Valley athletes already have three medals to their name after Day One and Day Two. Parkland Valley owned the alpine podium as their two silvers so far have came on the slopes in Prince Albert. Tori Todischuk took a silver as did Brooklyn Andrusiak in an impressive showing from the two Girls alpine racers. Team Parkland’s third medal came in figure skating by the way of Marty Haubrich who
won a bronze. The Parkland Valley will have a shot at Gold this week when their Boys Hockey team plays in the final. Led by potential top 2015 WHL Bantam Draft prospect Carson Miller and several of his Yorkton Bantam teammates, the Parkland team has dominated the ice. Parkland Valley’s wins over Lakeland, Prairie Central, and Team North started the week off on the right foot before beating Team Southwest 9-2 to advance to the Gold Medal game. The second half of the games is set to start later in the week with more athletes arriving in Prince Albert.
role of hero, scoring an unassisted goal to give the Harvest the upset win 4-3 win just one minute into overtime. It would be just the fifth win the Harvest had earned since the Christmas break, but it was a big one as it kept
Notre Dame three games back of the Harvest for eighth place with just five games remaining. Of those games none will be more important for the Harvest than their final home game against the Hounds this week as a regulation win
would all but end any hopes of a Hounds comeback. If the Harvest can find a way to earn a clutch win during the week their final stretch will be a lot less nerve wracking and will clinch Dan Cross’ first playoff appearance as head coach
of the Harvest. A loss will set up a wild final weekend where the Harvest will close out their season against the Regina Pat Canadians. Looking to get the job done early, the Harvest must win in their home finale.
HARVEST ONE WIN AWAY FROM PLAYOFFS. This week will mark an important game on the Harvest schedule when they take on the Notre Dame Hounds with a chance to clinch playoffs early. An overtime win over the Stars at home putting them in control of their own destiny. 14024MC00

century21plus.ca 2014 Olympics Week Two: Hockey, curling golds up for grabs While the opening week of the Olympics was all about Canada’s shocking run up the medal table that we all knew wasn’t going to last forever, Week Two’s storylines were pretty much what we were all expecting as once the Men’s Hockey tournament started eyes drifted from the amateurs and back onto the game that Canadians love so much. Round robin play brought upsets, special moments and of course tons of debate over how good Canada has been playing and if it will be enough to get them through to this weekend’s semifinals and eventually the Gold Medal game. Still even with all of the hockey there has been more than enough special Canadian moments this week. Even if the medals started changing from Golds to Silver and Bronze Canada has still continued to ride the Olympic wave and have the chance to finish out the Olympics with a big final weekend to once again be amongst the best countries in the world at the Winter Games for the second straight Olympics. With that being said, here are the Olympic highlights from Wednesday the 12-19: Patrick Chan’s silver Patrick Chan was billed in Vancouver as Canada’s star non-hockey athlete for the Games and a hope to be the country’s first ever Men’s Figure Skating Olympic Champion. That pressure got to him in 2010 and after disappointment at home he was supposed to head to Sochi as once again Canada’s hope for figure skating history in our country. Finishing fifth in Vancouver Chan did his best in the competition, but eventually was edged out for the Gold, settling for silver in what was a disappointment for both Chan and the country that has supported him through his career and were expecting him to finally climb the Olympic mountain for the Gold medal everyone has expected out of him.
Chan’s loss sparked widespread debate on how we should view the accomplishments of Olympic athletes. Many praised Chan for winning silver, even if he was touted as a Gold medal contender in both 2010 and 2014 without getting the job done. That led to others calling out Chan for his lack of “clutch” as they expected Chan to win and he failed by losing . It is a fair debate and there is no wrong answer to your viewpoint, but his loss once again reminded Olympic viewers that not all medals are the same. Chan himself will be disappointed initially to have lost arguably his last great chance at a Gold medal, but at the same time he deserves to be proud of representing Canada with a Silver. Team Jacobs, Team Jones off to Men’s/ Women’s Curling finals. Olympic curling has seen a rapid rise since it’s inclusion as an Olympic sport and after the 2010 Games in Vancouver countries started to improve on the sheets and heading into Sochi the men’s team led by Brad Jacobs and the women’s team led by Jennifer Jones would have to contend with talented teams from Great Britain, China and Sweden to find their way to a Gold medal opportunity. The Canadians had ups and downs during the round robin round, but still were amongst the most dominate teams and easily earned their ways into the semifinals as expected by most Canadians before setting up tough matchups against China for the men and Team GB for the women to guarantee themselves medals. Jacobs and Jones did just that, both winning by multiple points to ensure at the very least double silver for Canada after the Gold medal games are played. Jones and Jacobs both know that Silver will not be enough to satisfy the thirst of the Canadian curling fans, who take pride in the fact the game is the most popu-

Ruttig’s rants Column Chase Ruttig lar and organized in our country. For Jones and Jacobs there will be as much pressure on them as the Olympic hockey teams, which speaks to how much curling means to this country. Charles Hamelin falls in 1,000 meter, 500 meter qualifications Already boasting three total medals from performances in Torino 2006 and Vancouver 2010, Charles Hamelin knew he had a good chance to add to his medals in Sochi when he took to the track for the 1,500 meter event. After the disappointment of finishing seventh in Vancouver in the 1,500 meter event Hamelin worked on improving himself over the four
year break and it paid off. Hamelin beat out Tianyu Han of China with a time of 2:14.985 to win by 70 milleseconds over the field for a surprising win in an event that is typically not his strong point. That made Hamelin’s upcoming appearances in the 1,000 meter and 500 meter short track events compelling as the Canadian speedskater looked like he would get at least one medal out of two events where he also is among the top in the world, but fate had other ideas. A spill in the 1,000 would set up an even more disastrous fall in his specialty event as in the 500 meter quarterfinal heat Hamelin would roar out to a clear lead heading into the first turn of the fi-
nal lap where he spilled out and failed to qualify for the semifinals. Hamelin’s defeats showed just how small the margin of error is in the Olympics with so many world class athletes preparing for one event to define their careers, Hamelin will be able to look back on his upset in the 1,500 meter and smile but his shocking fall from grace reminded us just how easy it is to see your Olympic dream turn into a nightmare. Canada-USA Women prepare to do battle for Gold. Heading into the final stretch of events at the Olympics, the second marquee event for the Canadians will be in the Women’s Hockey Gold Medal game as the Canadians will be looking to sweep the Americans and complete what has been an upset in the women’s hockey tournament so far with the Canadians playing so well while the favourite Americans blew a 2-1 third period lead to finish second in the group in the round robin meeting with the Canadians. USA-Canada always
brings some of the best games in all sports when they do battle on the Olympic stage and we all remember Hayley Wickenheiser calling out the Americans for stepping on the Canadian flag in their dressing room after Canada won their first Olympic Gold. This rivalry is as good as it can get and when the two do battle it is sure to take the center stage in Sochi as the entire world pays homage to how great both the US and Canada truly are at women’s hockey. Men’s hockey reaches knockout round As we speak Canada and the United States men’s hockey teams are in the second period of their Quarterfinal games in the Olympic hockey tournament. With Russia out of the picture after being upset by Finland, the two should set up a semifinal together that could define who wins the Gold as the Americans and Canadians are both undefeated and are looking to make statements. After the epic 2010 Olympic Gold Medal game between the two expect a classic. Enjoy the rest of the games all.

Terriers continue race to lock up first place Cont. from Page 13
Those games at hand lead to a busy week for the Terriers as they will be hosting their final three home games before heading out on a two game road trip to close out the regular season. Over the five game stretch the Terriers will avoid division leaders in Kindersley and Melfort, but will still be in tough to clinch the regular season pennant. Yorkton will host a Weyburn team that always play them tough on Thursday before hosting Nipawin Saturday and Notre Dame on February 26 to close out their regular season schedule at the Farrell Agencies Arena. From there the Terriers will travel to Flin Flon on February 28 to take on the Bombers before closing out their 2013/14 SJHL season with a game in Humboldt. If Yorkton can stay above .500 in this stretch first place in the league, and home ice advantage should be a lock. That is easier said than done, but for now with just five games
remaining it is looking like the Yorkton Terriers will enter the SJHL playoffs the way they entered the regular season, as the odds on favourties. Around the League Mils’ Kilback wins Player of the Week
Melville’s Allen Kilback is back in form after missing a chunk of the season due to injury. In the midst of the Terriers/Millionaires race for first place in the league/division Kilback racked up five goals and three assists in a pair of Millionaire victories last week. Kilback contributed a hat trick on Valentine’s Day as he helped the Mils win their last road game of the season in Humboldt in what was a massive victory. One night later, Kilback was again clutch in a three point home performance over the Red Wings. Those two performances made Kilback a clear cut choice for Canalta Hotels SJHL Player of the Week and kept
his Millionaires hope of stealing the division lead from the Terriers. Melville’s Sam Genereux would win Defenseman of the Week while Tyrell King of the Kindersley Klippers would win Goaltender of the Week honours. Division races heating in race to March
With the SJHL regular season heating up there is little between teams in the SJHL’s new playoff format. With three divisions and a new seeeding system there is plenty to watch for over the next two weeks as teams are jockeying for position. While Kindersley have the Kramer Division title locked down just one point separates the Terriers/ Mils in the Viterra while the Nipawin Hawks can still catch the Melfort Mustangs in the Sherwood Division. Not to mention the three team race between Yorkton-Kindersley-Melville giving fans plenty of entertainment to end the season.
