Bullying: how to stop it – public consultation held By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
YOUTH POW WOW – The Yorkton Regional High School hosted its first annual youth pow wow recently. The event was developed to give students in the Good Spirit School Division knowledge and understanding about the historical significance and culture of Aboriginal people.
Sunrise announces balanced budget
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
The Sunrise Health Region has announced its fourth consecutive balanced budget. The budget consists of revenues totaling $212,818,800, balanced by total operating expenditures of $210,759,397, with the remaining $2,059,403 held for replacement reserves and repayment of mortgages and loans. The region will receive a net provincial funding increase of $3.3 million. Eighty-nine per cent of the health region’s total operating revenue is provincially funded, with the remaining coming from long-term care, home care fees, third party charges and other miscellaneous recoveries. In 20122013, the region had a general operating surplus of $453,521. Lawrence Chomos, Sunrise Regional Health Authority Chairperson, says that it’s always a priority to present a balanced budget, and this year the region
continues to be proud of what it has accomplished. “From the board’s point of view we’re very proud that this is the fourth consecutive balanced budget. I’ve been on the board for quite a while and that has always been a struggle for us to accomplish balanced budgets,” he says. He says that this is in line with the provincial position on health care in the province, which places a priority on finding ways to create a more efficient way of operation in the province’s health region. For their part, Sunrise has been working hard to look at ways to make their own operations more efficient, and Chomos says that is reflected in this year’s budget. Some of the money is being targeted towards trying to reduce sick leave, something Chomos admits has been a problem for the region in the past. He emphasizes that the benefits to this are twofold, both in the improved quality of life of employees and patients, but also
in the cost savings that result. “We want people to be at work healthy, and we want them there when they can be, so we’ve been monitoring that and certainly our employees have done a wonderful job in helping our system turn that around. There’s also huge cost savings, so that’s one of our local priorities.” The region also received targeted funding to address changes in population as well as put more focus on preventative medicine such as colonoscopies. “Some of the centres, Yorkton, Esterhazy and others, are seeing substantial growth in population. We know that the demands on the system are always increasing just due to our shifting demographics. We are one of the older regions in the province, with that unfortunately comes more access to the medical system... We need to have that recognized,” Chomos says.
Bullying is an increasingly serious issue in schools, especially now that technology is changing the landscape. As such, Saskatchewan Legislative Secretary Jennifer Campeau was in the city to conduct public consultations on anti-bullying strategies and initiatives. The day had two components. The first was about recognizing bullying, and sharing stories of examples people have seen. The second involved identifying strategies that have not worked in the past. “Basically what these consultations are is that we’re doing an assessment across Saskatchewan of what bullying is, the levels of bullying in different areas, and figuring out to what extent Saskatchewan is dealing with bullying. We hear high profile stories that have originated from different provinces, but we need to know what’s going on in Saskatchewan, especially at the grass roots level,” Campeau says. There will be 60 different consultations, with stakeholders, police, educators and community based organizations, as well as public consultations. Campeau says there is a four-pronged approach to the issue. This also includes an inter-jurisdictional review, to see what other provinces are doing, updating the website with relevant information and finally compiling a list of recommendations for the Minister of Education. The ultimate goal is to create what Campeau describes as a “Saskatchewan Action Plan,” which would include resources for parents who have a child who is being bullied. The impetus for the consultation is the changing ways that bullying occurs. “It’s evolving into something we don’t recognize. We talk about when I was a kid, bullying was very different, it was on the schoolyard, and we’ve heard stories as well in other consultations about it being very tangible...

BP partners to create opportunity for children By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer It’s an opportunity that many families take for granted yet one that countless won’t experience – but things are going to change if Boston Pizza owners in the province have anything to do with it. Originating right here in our city, local Boston Pizza franchisees Earl and Gerry Ann Fraser came up with the idea to partner with the Saskatchewan Abilities Council to raise funds to send children to Camp Easter Seal. The concept was a hit and has since extended to every BP franchise in the province meaning the effort will help children from all corners of Saskatchewan to enjoy a camp getaway they might not otherwise have the chance to experience. As the only completely wheelchair accessible camp facility in Saskatchewan – and staffed with exceptionally trained, caring workers – Camp Easter Seal is dedicated to providing a fun and barrier free experience for chil-
dren of all ages with disabilities. Swimming, boating, horseback riding and outdoor cookouts are just a few of the activities that take place on site, making for the perfect spot to create memories that are sure to last a lifetime. For one day, Boston Pizza will be donating 10 per cent of all sales to Camp Easter Seals to ensure as many children as possible will have this experience. Raising their grandson Nicholas who has down syndrome, the Frasers know first hand the challenges and limitations that exist. When they felt comfortable enough to begin looking into camp opportunities for Nicholas the couple says they made phone call after phone call only to find there was nothing out there. Until they discovered Camp Easter Seal. Couple the need that exists in the province with a strong desire to give back to their community, the idea for the Boston Pizza fundraising effort was born. “A year ago we tried to get Nicholas into a camp and we quickly found
says he hopes the community will jump on board in support of the effort that is to carry on annually as long as the support continues. The Saskatchewan Abilities Council is thrilled to partner with Boston Pizza on this effort. “This is huge for us and Camp Easter Seal,” says local Community Relations Coordinator for the Saskatchewan Abilities Council, Deana Jesmer. “It costs $1,500 to send one child to camp for a week session so the fact that we are going to be able to send more campers is huge for the kids with varying abilities in the province, as well as their care givers and everyone involved.” Provincially, between 700 and 800 children attend the camp each year. There is a very real need. This month you can do your part to help out with the worthy cause. June 26 is the day BP will be donating 10 per cent of all sales to Camp Easter Seal and throughout the month guests can also help raise additional funds by purchasing a $2 camp card that are available at all locations across Saskatchewan. If you miss out on the Boston Pizza initiative you can still get involved. Donations are accepted year round.

CICB lends college support CIBC has announced its support of the Parkland College Trades and Technology Centre with a donation of $12,500. The contribution is part of Parkland College’s first ever major capital campaign, the first of its kind carried out by a Saskatchewan Regional College. The campaign target is to raise $5 million as part of a partnership with the City of Yorkton, the Parkland region, and the provincial government. With CIBC’s donation included, Parkland College has raised over $2.25 million to date. “At CIBC, we’re committed to helping kids and young adults build a better future and providing increased access to education is a large part of that commitment,” says Tom Weber, Region Head, Central Canada at CIBC. “We are proud to partner with Parkland College in supporting the Trades and Technology Centre.” “We know that CIBC is committed to supporting causes that matter to their customers and employees,” adds Parkland College President Dr. Fay Myers. “We are very pleased that CIBC is giving more momentum to

COMMUNITY GARDEN – École St. Michael’s School Grade 6 classes planted a garden on Friday, June 7 with the help of the Community Garden Alliance and PotashCorp. The idea for the garden originally came after a Free the Children presentation at the school about Food Security. Students wanted to help those less fortunate, so the classes decided to plant a garden and donate the harvest to families in need and the Soup Haven. PotashCorp donated funds so the school could bus the students back and forth to the garden, purchase seeds and gardening tools. Students have signed up to tend to the garden over the summer. The school hopes to make this a yearly project.

Hyundai kicks off busy month for Habitat By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer For the second year in a row, Yorkton Hyundai is making a big contribution to Habitat for Humanity, donating a 2013 Hyundai Accent to the Hyundai for Habitat car draw. Laurie Renton, Fund Coordinator for Habitat for Humanity in Yorkton, says that she expects to build on the past success of the draw, which raised about $25,000. Renton says that their goal is to raise $50,000 this time
around. Renton says that the ultimate goal is to see a Hyundai build in four or five years. June is shaping up to be a busy month for Habitat, with construction beginning on the next build in the city. Renton says that their goal is to finish the build at around the same time as the car draw, in order to give Christmas presents to both the family and the car winner. “Talk about momentum and excitement, because it’s not just about the
winner of the car and the people moving into the home, it’s everybody, because it makes an impact on the whole community,” Renton says. Shannon Crook and her family will be moving into the home. Crook’s daughter has a bone disease called Osteogenesis Imperfecta, and the new home will be designed with her in mind. Crook says this is the most important part of getting a new home is the difference it is going to make in her daughter’s life. “They told me that they would do everything that they could to accommodate my daughter... Every place that we’ve been in, we would move in, look around, and say how do we make this work. So this makes everything easier on her, that’s the biggest part of it,” Crook says. Crook works both at the Painted Hand Casino and the Good Spirit School Division, and she says both of her employers have been very supportive of Habitat. She says it’s good to see people come out to support. “People are helping somebody that they don’t even know, that shows that it brings out a lot of good in people,” Crook says. The car draw will happen on December 19.
GIVING BACK – Every donation brings the foundation another step closer to reaching its goals. And last week two more generous amounts came in. Pictured below, Darren Spelay, Grand Knight for the Knights of Columbus, St. Mary’s Church (left), presents Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation with a cheque for $1,000. “We have supported many of The Health Foundation’s projects over the years,” says Spelay. Healthcare affects so many people, and we like to help The Health Foundation buy new equipment and put new services in place for the people of this region. You know there is a real benefit to the community when you support the work of the Foundation. Pictured above, the Royal Bank joins on as an associate sponsor of the foundation’s upcoming Charity Road Race. RBC employees Antonio Osuna (left) and Dana Prystupa present Fisher with a cheque for $2,500. Osuna and Prystupa are also participating in the race this year. The funds raised from the event will go to new equipment for the cardiac program and stroke clinic. “We really do need community organizations and businesses from throughout the region to make a contribution. We need to demonstrate to the government that there is a broad base of support in our region for a new hospital. We have to show them we can raise the community share of the funds that will be required,” concludes an appreciative Fisher.
HYUNDAI FOR HABITAT will see this 2013 Hyundai Accent go to one lucky winner. Pictured above are Dennis Coutts, CEO Habitat Regina, Ron Kaban, Dealer Principal, Yorkton Hyundai, Cherie Parsons, District Sales Manager, Hyundai Canada, Laurie Renton, Fundraising Chair, Habitat for Humanity Yorkton.
Sunrise budget Con’t from Page 1. “Preventative medicine, like colonoscopy screening, adds additional services to the health region and those cost. We know they’re a good investment because dealing with issues like cancer at the preventative level helps.” Chomos says that the issues in the Sunrise Health Region are the same province-wide, with things like reducing wait times being a priority for everyone. “There has been much discussion about nine or ten health regions thinking as one, and working across the province to look at ways to do things better.”

Tourism: an industry worth celebrating It’s an important week in the province and given where things are, as residents we have much to celebrate! The Government of Saskatchewan officially proclaimed the week of June 9-15 as Saskatchewan Tourism Week. Part of a broader national initiative called Tourism Week in Canada, which brings attention to the economic opportunity available to Canada through travel and tourism, Saskatchewan Tourism Week provides an excellent opportunity to broaden awareness about the importance of tourism in this province. Did you know that tourism contributes more than $2 billion to Saskatchewan’s economy annually, and, that in 2011, there were more than 11.9 million visits to and within the province? Approximately 57,300 people are employed in tourism or tourism-related jobs. It’s a big industry. “Saskatchewan Tourism Week is a time to celebrate our province’s wealth of tourism resources – nearly 100,000 pristine lakes, limitless opportunities to explore and enjoy the outdoors, an enviable parks system, fascinating historic sites and attractions, colourful festivals and much more,” Minister responsible for Tourism Saskatchewan Tim McMillan comments. “It also provides an opportunity to acknowledge those who drive the success of the industry and make Saskatchewan a great place to visit.” “Tourism’s contributions to our province are significant,” Tourism Saskatchewan Chief Executive Officer Pat Fiacco adds. “The industry is a strong player in our growing economy. It is a major employer and offers countless opportunities for innovative entrepreneurs. Tourism encourages community pride and development and showcases Saskatchewan’s impressive assets – its rich history, diverse culture, and one-of-a-kind hospitality. This week is an occasion to celebrate tourism and profile an important industry that has huge potential for growth.” Three cheers for tourism!
Every child, every family matters... Makes great sense to me! And while my baby days are over, I think it’s a concept worth taking a look at seeing as our children ARE our future. While we are far more advanced than many other countries in plenty of ways, Canada stands a lot to learn from countries like Finland when it comes to child rearing. A news headline caught my eye the other day. It read “Why Canadian babies should sleep in cardboard boxes like Finnish babies do.” Hmmm... Not technically to be taken literally, apparently in Finland, every expecting mother receives a cardboard box filled with goodies. On the box it reads, “Every child matters. Every family matters.” The Finnish government believes allowing children and families to wallow in poverty is socially and politically unacceptable. And isn’t it? They recognize the fact that there is a cost to proper child rearing and that society will better benefit as a whole if children are raised in a healthy environment. To that end, they allocate funding for important family support networks in the range of health care, childcare, education, housing and employment. And it all starts with a box. Each box (a gift from the state) contains clothes, a
snowsuit, bath products, cloth diapers, books (including relevant information on breast feeding), bedding and a mattress. The box isn’t just handed over either. To collect, moms visit a maternity clinic where they also fresh foods, supShannon Deveau receive port and even a home visit. All moms get nine full months of maternity benefits – whether they work or not. Day care is also provided at no cost and parents who choose to stay home, are paid a subsidy. And apparently the theory is working. According to statistics Finnish moms are among the world’s happiest mothers. But guess what? Canadian moms rank 20th on the list. While rewarding, raising a child can be a stressful and costly experience, especially if you are struggling and alone. We do have support networks here in Canada, if you search them out, but it seems to make more sense to have things readily available, with no searching or questions needed. They say it takes a community to raise a child. Maybe it takes a country to do it even better. And it can all begin with a cardboard box – a symbol of commitment and a statement that every child and every family really do matter.
The way I see it... Column
Quebec turban ban should just be discarded In sports, things should be banned for one of two reasons. Reason one, if the practice causes safety problems for players. Reason two, if the practice gives players an unfair competitive advantage. These are the only two reasons because a level playing field and player safety should be the two main concerns for sports programs. Quebec’s ban on turbans for soccer games has generated a fair bit of controversy, to the point where the Quebec Soccer Federation has been suspended from the Canadian Soccer Federation. The problem is that turbans are not actually covered under the two main sections of acceptable sports bans. Dr. Sanjeet Saluja, an emergency doctor at McGill University Health Centre, says that there is no evidence of any safety issues surrounding turbans, either in his experience as a doctor or a soccer player. There’s also no real competitive advantage, so that reasoning is out as well. So what reason could there possibly be for banning people in turbans from playing the game? The Quebec Soccer Federation says they’re following FIFA guidelines on the matter, and that the larger organization does not allow players to wear turbans. In fact, FIFA’s own equipment regulations document makes no mention of turbans. While the 92 page document goes into very specific detail about
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger what is allowed on shirts, gloves, goalkeepers hats, and so on, it does not make any mention of the turban throughout. It does have specific mentions of headbands and medical headgear, saying they are allowed, but turbans are left out of the document. So they are taking the absence of a specific rule to indicate an overall ban. That’s actually a legitimate interpretation, given how incredibly specific FIFA is on most of their other regulations. It is tempting to say that this is a specific attack on Sikh players, who are the ones primarily affected by the turban regulation. I do not think that is the entire case, the Quebec Soccer Federation since it is one
interpretation of the rule book, but I think that they’re losing something by preventing those Sikh players from joining the team like everyone else. It’s a simple reason that goes far beyond soccer, or even sports in general. It’s about getting people together, and that’s what they are missing in this controversy. Part of sport is competition, but part of it isn’t, instead being about meeting people and camaraderie that develops when a team works together to play and compete. When you have a group of people from disparate backgrounds, the sport itself provides a common ground which they can build on. The Sikh community in Quebec would get a chance to participate in a sport with people from outside of their community, as would the people who are not Sikh, and it would have an overall positive effect. However, the issue with the ban is that it isolates one part of the community and makes it so they can’t participate in one of the available sports, for arbitrary reasons. It also means that there is going to be some bad blood between different people in different areas, given the inequality and inability to participate in the same events. Whatever you think of the turban, it is still going to be seen as a direct attack on a specific group of people, which is not very good for building relationships overall.

Your letter of the Week
Work half a year just to pay tax
Sponsorship debate
To the Editor:
It was Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. who famously said “Taxes are the price we pay for a civilized society.” Fair enough. But how much are we willing to pay for the notion of a civilized society? Or put another way, how much of the year are you be willing to work to pay for all the stuff government does? For Canadians, in 2013 the answer was up to June 10. Tax Freedom Day is an easy-tounderstand measure of the total tax burden imposed on Canadian families by federal, provincial, and local governments. If you had to pay all your taxes up front, you would give governments each and every dollar you earned before Tax Freedom Day. If working until June 10 sounds like a long time, it’s because the taxes we pay extend well beyond the income tax we see deducted off our pay cheques. In fact, the total tax bill for a typical Canadian family includes a dizzying array of taxes, including visible ones like income taxes, sales taxes, payroll taxes, and property taxes as well as hidden ones like profit taxes, gas taxes, import duties – and the list goes on. In 2013, we estimate that the average Canadian family consisting of two or more people will pay a total tax bill of $42,400 or 43.6 per cent of their annual income, which results in Tax Freedom Day falling on June 10. It’s only from then on that Canadians start working for them-
selves and their families instead of government. While that may be reason enough to celebrate, keep in mind that Tax Freedom Day arrived two days later than last year. And it’s no wonder why. Governments across the country have recently increased taxes in an effort to make up for years of overspending that resulted in multiyear deficits. This past year alone, British Columbia and New Brunswick increased personal and corporate income taxes (B.C. also raised its health tax), Manitoba increased its provincial sales tax, Quebec increased its top income tax rate, Prince Edward Island increased its tax on small businesses, and Ottawa increased Employment Insurance premiums. And then there’s Canada’s progressive tax system, which imposes a higher total tax burden on families as their incomes increase. As incomes have recovered from the 2008-09 recession, the average tax burden has grown to a greater extent, causing Tax Freedom Day to come later. As an example of Canada’s progressive system, the top fifth of income earners face an average total tax burden amounting to 52.4 per cent of income while the bottom fifth face an average burden of 17.3 per cent. Indeed, the more you earn, the more of your income goes to paying taxes. But the true tax burden doesn’t end with the revenues that governments collect. The reality is, govern-
ments often spend more than their revenues allow and then borrow the difference. In other words, they incur deficits. This year, the federal and six provincial governments are planning to incur deficits totalling $34 billion. (Ottawa expects a deficit of $18.7 billion while the provinces cumulatively expect deficits of $15.3 billion.) According to our calculations, Tax Freedom Day would come nine days later this year, on June 19, if Canadian governments covered their current spending with even greater tax increases instead of borrowing the shortfall. The trend of governments relying on borrowed money began years ago. From 2007/08 to 2012/13, Canadian governments ramped up total government debt by $372.2 billion. Since this additional debt must one day be paid for by taxes, Tax Freedom Day may actually come later in the future. By kicking today’s debt down the road, governments are effectively passing on the burden of repayment to young Canadian families. But back to Holmes and the price tag of a “civilized society.” Is working until June 10 acceptable for what we get from government? While it’s ultimately up to individual Canadians to decide, therein lies the value of Tax Freedom Day; it at least gives them the information they need to make that assessment.

Harper’s state-sponsored vandalism
To the Editor:
In the early days of the Harper regime, many Canadians were taken aback by that “new” government’s determination not just to change policy directions (as would be expected of any new administration), but also to obliterate all vestiges of what previous governments had been working on. A prime example from 2005/06 was the Kelowna Accord which, based on 20 months of respectful negotiations, had laid out a comprehensive game-plan for narrowing the “life gaps” between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Canadians. With the explicit support of the Government of Canada, all 10 provinces and three territories, and the five national Aboriginal organizations, Kelowna was truly an historic achievement. But the Harper Conser-
vatives hated it and utterly destroyed it. Then they even denied it ever existed. And nothing meaningful has been accomplished in this field of public policy ever since. At first, such destructive attitudes were attributed to excessive ideological exuberance which would likely mellow a bit over time, but they still persist largely unabated today. Fed-Prov agreements to help provide sufficient high-quality early learning and child care spaces is another example of a useful prior initiative that was hacked to bits. Concrete action to deal with global warming and to improve student access to all forms of post-secondary education are two more victims. You can add to the hitlist Mr. Harper’s destruction of Income Trusts which, quite literally overnight, sliced the savings of some 2-million
ordinary Canadians by about $25-billion. Then there was the destruction of the long-form census which has resulted in data so unreliable that Statistics Canada won’t even publish census numbers for many communities, including nearly half of Saskatchewan. The Harper Conservatives have also walked away from any serious role for the Government of Canada in finding and sharing the new innovations in healthcare that will be needed to sustain medicare – it seems they truly want an ad hoc patchwork of systems across the country. Their changes to Old Age Security, while phased-in over a few years, will have the perverse effect of taking $30,000 from the incomes of Canada’s least wealthy and most vulnerable seniors – the exact opposite of what OAS was originally intended to do. Environmental protec-
tion has been muzzled, mangled and left for dead. Pure public-interest scientific research across the federal government has been abandoned. Community pastures serving livestock producers equitably, while safeguarding 32 endangered species are being sold. An historic prairie tree farm with 112 years of extraordinary value and proven success is being dismembered. The examples just keep on coming. They don’t add-up to thoughtful policy change, but rather something akin to statesponsored vandalism. Those who think that doing such gratuitous damage is okay, would also no doubt think it’s okay for Stephen Harper’s right-hand man to cut a secret $90,000 deal with Mike Duffy. It’s the same scorched-earth mentality. Ralph Goodale, MP, Wascana, SK.
Food safety problems were totally avoidable
To the Editor:
Canadians count on the government to make sure the food we eat is safe, yet when it comes to the inspection system, MP Garry Breitkreuz and the Conservative government refuse to own up to their own mistakes. An independent review of last year’s XL Foods E. coli outbreak, which led to the largest beef recall in Canadian history, found that the outbreak was entirely preventable. It found that there was not “a strong food safety culture” in the Canadian Food Inspection Agency at all levels. Staff were inadequately trained and inspection practices weren’t good enough. Our government failed. Many of these problems would
have been fixed if the Conservatives had followed through on their commitment to implement the recommendations of the Weatherill Report on the listeriosis contamination at Maple Leaf Foods in 2008. The Conservatives claim they have been “bolstering” our food inspection system and that they have “added 20 per cent to the personnel.” In fact, documents reveal they plan to cut hundreds of food safety and inspection staff at CFIA, which will reduce, not strengthen our food safety system. They also failed to implement the final recommendation of the Weatherill Report, which called for an independent, comprehensive resource audit to ensure that the CFIA had the resources, human and otherwise
to carry out its mandate. This slapdash approach allowed problems at XL Foods to go unchecked for years, allowing the E. coli contamination that caused 18 Canadians to get sick, cost $16-27 million to the beef industry and undermined consumer confidence in our food safety system. Will Mr. Breitkreuz and the Conservatives actually implement the recommended changes to food inspection to prevent a third major food crisis on their watch? Don’t hold your breath – when I asked in Question Period, they refused to commit to an implementation date. Frank Valeriote, MP, Liberal Party of Canada Agriculture Critic.
To the Editor: Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of speaking at the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) conference in Vancouver. where I presented a session on corporate sponsorship and municipalities. The room was packed-not because of the speaker, but rather the topic! Municipalities were represented – at least the ones that are smart enough to understand that corporate sponsorship revenue is essential to the long term financial success of their fiefdoms! It is no longer about whether a municipality wants to engage in sponsorship, but when it will “get into the game.” Municipal corporate sponsorship is one of the fastest growing sectors in our industry-and it will affect all the other sectors, from arts to sports, charities to schools. As municipalities enter this game further, the question will be whether they take the money from existing sponsorship programs elsewhere in the community or grow the pot! I truly believe they will grow the pot. They will create new opportunities that fit brands that have never invested in sponsorship. They will work alongside schools, charities, and sport organizations to grow the sector and deliver better results for sponsors, and put much needed dollars on the bottom line for all these organizations. But it has to be done right. When it is not, we see citizens and communities revolt. Or worse yet, hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent on “sponsorship development” by marketing agencies and brand integration companies, when what the municipality really needs is to know what it has to sell, what it is worth, and how to sell it. Recently, we have seen municipalities sell naming rights, parks, or buildings, and also sponsorship programs where they truly undersold the value of the assets. This, in turn, hurts the rest of the community such as the sport organization or college that now cannot sell their properties at fair market value, because the unprepared and uneducated municipality has lowered the bar and undersold its naming rights. The City of Winnipeg still struggles with its sponsorship program because its assets have neither been fully identified nor valued by an outside third party to allow them to be sold at real market value and generate the money they should. For municipalities to be successful, they need to know how to “get into and play the game.” When they do it wrong, they are in big trouble. From my experience, and we work with more municipalities across Canada than anyone, municipalities are open to sharing. I see how our client the Town of Canmore worked on its policy development with support from the City of Edmonton. The City of Spruce Grove has done the same. The City of Toronto also makes its policy available. And there are others. My advice to municipalities is to reach out to one another. On October 21 in Calgary, the day before the SMCC Western Sponsorship Congress™, the Partnership Group – Sponsorship Specialists™ will host a half day corporate sponsorship workshop for municipalities. The session will review everything from asset identification to valuation, procurement issues and concerns, and policy development and prospecting. This is “must attend” workshop for municipalities. These are just one person’s thoughts. Brent Barootes President and CEO Partnership Group – Sponsorship Specialists

Revamped and set for business: B3 opens doors By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer There’s a new skateboard shop in town and if the owners have it their way, it will be the most unique in the country, serving the needs of customers at all skill levels and interests. Formerly known as B3 Extreme under the ownership by local businessman TC Chornomud, B3 Snow & Skate Ltd. has new owners and has officially opened it’s doors for business at its Myrtle Avenue location. Fully renovated and packed with stock, B3 is among the largest stores of its kind in Western Canada. Originally a taxidermy/ hunting and fishing type store, Chornomud eventually shifted the location into a skate boarding mecca before deciding it was time to retire earlier this year. His desire was to carry on a legacy and at the same time pass along an opportunity to younger entrepreneurs who would share his dream. Today the store is owned by
brothers Daniel and Jeremy Wayman, along with dad Bob Wayman. “I grew up in Yorkton,” says Daniel, adding, as a teenager he caught the skateboard bug at the very location he now coowns after spending countless hours enjoying the onsite indoor skate venue with Chornomud’s son Tucker. “Tucker was so interested in skateboarding that TC decided to expand... he didn’t expect it to explode like it did. But it did.” Set for retirement in spite of the popularity of his business, Daniel says Chornomud helped make the business a reality for himself and his brother who plan to continue expanding and improving far into the future. “We carry everything from men’s more formal wear, to t-shirts, to all the skateboarding clothing you can think of – all high end (brand name) clothing.” The store also carries a full line of ladies clothing that will be expanding in the coming weeks.
LOCATED ON MYRTLE AVENUE, B3 Snow & Skate officially opened it’s doors Saturday in Yorkton. Pictured above at a ribbon cutting event are: skateboarding enthusiasts Justin Hull (left) and Patrick Desnomie (right) as well as center (l-r): co-owner Daniel Wayman; Mayor Bob Maloney; and Jeremy Wayman.

Camp Day raises record funds Tim Horton’s Camp Day was another success, raising a record $11.8 million for the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation’s biggest fundraiser of the year. The money raised on Camp Day will help send more than 16,000 economically disadvantaged kids in Canada and the U.S. on a life-changing experience. On Camp Day, more than 4,000 Tim Hortons restaurant locations in Canada and the United States – including in Yorkton – generously donate all proceeds from coffee sales to the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation (THCF) and host fundraising events to raise additional money for the camps. Last year’s event raised a record $11 million, giving more than 15,000 kids the opportunity to experience the positive impact of a Tim Horton Children’s Camp. “Breaking the cycle of poverty and helping economically disadvantaged children aspire for a brighter future is at the heart of Tim Horton Children’s Foundation,” says Dave Newnham, vice president and executive director, Tim Horton Children’s Foundation. “None of this would be possible without the support of our loyal guests and
dedication of our Tim Hortons restaurant owners and team members. Thank you to everyone who bought a coffee and made a donation to help make this year’s Camp Day a great success.” In addition to purchasing a Tim Hortons coffee on June 5, guests had the opportunity to directly support children in their community and send even more kids to camp by texting a $5 donation, donating online or making a donation in restaurant by purchasing a $1 Rent-a-Tent or $5 Rent-a-Cabin. Guests can also contribute year-round through sendakidtocamp.com and THCF coin boxes at Tim Hortons restaurants. “Each and every donation made on Camp Day and throughout the year has the power to change the lives of children in your community,” adds Newnham. “The donations not only give thousands of deserving kids the chance to experience a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity each year, but it can make a lasting impact as children who attend our camp often return home with a more positive attitude and greater confidence about their future.”
their own boards at no cost, or enlist the help of experts on hand. “We have all the different parts you need,” says Daniel adding, the idea is that every child who wants to skate should have the opportunity. “When a kid blows their bearings, if we have an extra set that have been sitting around, he can have them.” The concept is if you don’t need it, leave a part, if you need a part, take a part. “We also build boards from what we call the graveyard... or if someone comes in and they’re sick of their old board... they can leave the old one and
we’ll pass it along to someone who can’t afford a board, or kids can come in and build one from spare parts that we have... It’s great to be making the big dollars but you always want to keep the heart and that’s really, really important to us.” As is creating a space that’s warm, welcoming and different. Anyone who visited the previous store front in the past, would see extensive work and thought has gone into making B3 the store it is today. “It took a lot of work,” says Jeremy. “Our biggest goal through the whole thing is we wanted to make sure the
new store had a very modern feel, a lot of inventory... but we still wanted to keep the old feel, while making everyone feel welcome... get a big smile when they walk in and for people to feel at home.” On location, in addition to the store front is an indoor concrete skatepark that’s slated for upgrading so local youth of all ages and skill levels will have a unique venue to try out their boards and enjoy. “We’re trying to become the most unique skate shop in Saskatchewan and Canada... we will have the inventory and the selection of West 49, but we’ll have the feel of a private little skate shop,” says Jeremy. In the near future he adds, there is a plan to develop a tattoo/piercing parlor (B3 Tattoo) at the location, as well as a comic book/music and art supply outlet B.A.M. Collectibles). “It all works very well together and I think it’ll be a really good combination for everybody.” Ultimately, the brothers hope to grow to be Canada’s largest skateboard shop complete with an online presence and possibly a second location near Saskatoon. “We want to get to the point where we can cater to every kind of skateboarder out there,” concludes Daniel. “Retail does pay the bills but we definitely want to be all about skateboarding here, keeping the wellness of kids in mind, especially in our community.”

Expanding trade
GIVE THE GIFT OF LIFE – The annual Give the Gift of Life Fun Run and Walk was recently held in the City of Yorkton. The event raises money for the Kidney Foundation of Canada’s Saskatchewan division, and the money raised goes to research in the province. The event raised approximately $12,500 for the cause. The event is also about raising the awareness of organ and tissue donation, and event coordinator Audrey Parisloff says she hopes that more people talk to their families about becoming an organ donor, because it saves lives.
Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz Country of Origin Labeling or COOL, as it is more commonly known, has been in the agriculture vocabulary since September 2008. At that time, the United States implemented legislation requiring retailers to notify their customers of the country of origin of commodities including all cuts of beef and pork, and even ground beef and ground pork. Our Canadian government has fought the burdensome labeling and tracking system from the very beginning. We have maintained that the United States meat-labeling requirement is discriminatory to livestock from Canada and Mexico, and a World Trade Organization (WTO) panel has agreed with our stand more than once. In fact, the WTO panel gave the United States a deadline to comply with its trade obligations. COOL has led to the disintegration of the North American supply chain, created unpredictability in the market and imposed additional costs for producers on both sides of the border. May 23rd was that WTO compliance deadline, and on that day the U.S. released a final ruling with little change to its original legislation. Our government has stated very strongly its disappointment with the
regulatory changes put forward by the United States. The changes do not bring the United States into compliance with its WTO obligations and our government will be considering all options at its disposal, including the use of retaliatory measures. Despite the COOL controversy with the United States, our government has been focused on expanding international markets for the entire agriculture sector. Our government is currently undertaking the most ambitious trade expansion plan in Canadian history, and agreements with other countries continue to be reached on a regular basis. Today, we have beef, beef product and/or bovine genetics reaching 22 countries, including China, Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, Russia, the Philippines and Japan. In addition, we have reopened and expanded access for Canadian pork and/or swine in 12 countries, including Malaysia, Mongolia, South Korea, Ukraine and Thailand. Our government will continue to stand with and support our livestock producers as we fight COOL. However, we will not only focus on the United States’ border, but will continue to seek international market opportunities for our world-class products.
Storms come in all sizes and all shapes
This past month we heard much about the tornado that hit Moore Oklahoma. It appeared to have hit an area that was struck by a tornado once before. This tornado appeared to be in a far off distance to most people in our community. To us the storm appeared much closer. We were on vacation and our plans were to head straight south to Oklahoma, and then turn east through the grain belt States, and over the Appalachian Mountains to our destination. Hearing about the oncoming storm, we changed our route and headed east before we continued south. That evening around 4 p.m. we pulled into our motel only to turn on the TV and find that we were at the outer edge of this storm. That night we had many emails asking us if we were safe amid the storm. We thank God for keeping us safe as we travelled on what was to be a great vacation. Many people who were in this storm were not as blessed as we were. Some lives were lost, innocent children died, people were injured and many lives will be forever changed because of
FROM MORNING UNTIL EVENING... Column by Margaret Anne Yost this storm. Many people asked, ‘where is God in a tornado’ or any other life changing event. If He is in control why do things like this happen? The ‘why” question came up after this storm. Why did this tornado happen? Why did innocent children have to die? To many of our why questions we have no answers. God never promised us a trouble free life, but he did promise to go with us and journey with us in life and in death. Upon arriving at our holiday destination I read many blogs that people wrote in the aftermath of the storm. So many people spoke of how they prayer for protection and felt God’s arms around them and kept them safe in this terrible storm. God was there amid the storm. When things seemed hopeless there appeared hope in the forms of peo-
ple coming to help: some were neighbours, others that were complete strangers. Injured people were pulled from the rubble; children were found who were so afraid and were crying for help. Everyone came together to help any way they could. We were not personally affected by the tornado, but just listening to the media reporting on the storm moved us to compassion and concern for all who were in this storm. We can’t help but be moved emotionally when life was lost. As we listen to the media, we hear of another storm that is brewing and we have no idea what that storm will bring. Tornados come on all sizes and all shapes. Some are geographical, some are physical storms, and others are emotional. Some of us may ask, “Where is God?” amid all these
13063MS00
storms we each have to face in life. We again must ask ourselves, how are we going to make it through these rough times? Help comes in the form of the Creator’s loving arms wrapped around us. Arms that hold us safe during troubled times. Many of us become stronger people, many of us are taught lessons of how to cope in our struggles and some of us have made friends along the way that will influence us for the rest of our lives. We have learned that we can keep going, long after we think that we can’t take another step forward. Margaret Anne Yost nursed for 35 years.

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. Are you superstitious? This is my thirteenth story in the year 2013! Does that send a chill down your spine? No? Then try this. Let me present the date May 21, to my wife and I a very interesting date. A sectarian Christian group in California in January of 2011 declared May 21, 2011 as judgement day, although nothing spectacular occurred when the day arrived. Never mind the year, but May 21 has been the judgement day for many people, including some of our relatives. Marion’s father passed away on
May 21 a few years before we got married. We had been enjoying marital bliss for many years when Marion’s older brother Robert died suddenly on May 21, and a few years after Robert died, Marion’s mother also left our world on, you guessed it, May 21. The nurse from the bone doctor’s office called and advised me that my hip surgery is booked for May 21. I called my twin brother in Norway to let him know, only to be told that his knee surgery is also booked for May 21, and he got a bit concerned when I told him of all the close relatives that had taken their last breath on that day. Neither my brother or I are superstitious, so we are
proceeding with the surgery, admittedly because we were both unable to change the date! My wife has arranged for all the gadgets that I need for both pre and post operation. The dogs have adapted to me using a walker to get around in the house! It sure alleviates the pressure on that hip! I spend most of the days sitting in my favorite chair and barking orders, or just barking, in fact just sitting in my chair until my wife gets home, then I can start barking, but I don’t ‘cause I know what’s good for me! The dogs have taken to ignore my barking and commandeering as well, as they have realized that I am unable to follow through
with my normally lightning quick reflexes, which are currently impaired due to my condition! It is not that I’m helpless, far from it. Wait a minute! Now that is a strange word used to describe someone who is incapacitated! Help means to assist. Less has a meaning that is opposite of more, and when written together it could be more or less. Sorry, I got sidetracked! When the two words help and less are put together as helpless, it ought to actually mean that no assistance is required! Instead when someone is described as helpless it means that he require more help, not less. Unless of course helpless has
the same meaning as “could not help oneself.” But that cannot be right either. I was reading a book wherein the author had written that the hero could not help himself, and stole a kiss from the beautiful maiden, and she returned the kiss with fervor! Should he have written that the hero was helpless to steal a kiss from the beautiful maiden, and she returned the fervor? Or does helpless mean that a person is unable to assist another person? Grandma fell in the kitchen, but I was helpless as I was outside tending to the garden. My point is that it should read: “helpmore, not helpless” because the circumstance(s) calls for more help!
The joys of aging – the Sask. farmer gets a new hip Submitted by Kaare Askildt On May 21/13 at the Saskatoon City Hospital during the admitting and pre-operation process, I overheard the surgeon Dr. Shannon whispering to my wife that for a few extra dollars that are not covered on Medicare, he could insert a GPS transmitter with an everlasting lithium battery in my new hip joint, that way she would always know where I would be. He continued with what I would call the selling feature: “Men at your husband’s age may lose their sense of direction as they are getting older,” he said, “and with the GPS installed, you will always know where to find him and can just go and pick him up.” Can you believe it, an electronic husband sitting device!? No more sneaking away to play poker with the boys! However, just to be clear, my wife declined the offer of the GPS, stating that she always knows where I am. I firmly believe that it must be a new sense that gets activated when women give birth to their first child. Besides the fact that the mothers instantly get a new pair of eyes in the back of their heads, they also develop a homing device in their brains. My dear mother always knew where her twins were, and usually also what we were doing. When the child gets of age, the women’s new, but now old sense will transfer the focus on to their husbands and the sense is then active for the rest of their lives. At least that’s my belief and I’m sticking to it! Dr. Shannon wrote his initials on my left hip with a magic marker. Which I believe he did to make sure that he operated on the right hip located on my left side. Now stay with me, the right hip (as in the hip to be operated on) was the left hip, so he would be right to operate on the left. Everybody knows that left is where your thumb is on the right, thus it would be right to operate on the left. Isn’t that right? Wait a minute, wouldn’t a right and a left cancel each other out? Never
mind, he wrote them on the left hip! We then discussed the reason for marking my hip with his initials, and I suggested that perhaps it might be a warning to another hospital staff member, who by mistake would come by and roll me into a different operating room to take out a bad kidney, so by marking the hip they would certainly realize that Dr. Shannon has first dibs on the left hip and rightfully so! Dr. Shannon kept a straight face and agreed that it could be one of the reasons, but with a wink of his eye he confided in me that it was for his own purpose, just to remind him when they wheeled me into the operating room. Coincidentally and without prior consultation between us either, my identical twin brother Kjell was getting a left knee replacement procedure at a hospital in Norway, on the very same day as I was scheduled for my left hip replacement. During our last telephone conversation prior to my surgery, I told him that my doctors and other medical professionals had all strongly suggested that I consider a spinal freezing for the procedure, rather than being fully knocked out. My twin brother Kjell strongly and vehemently told me not to take the spinal freezing, but rather ask to be put out altogether. “The pain associated with a spinal is excruciating,” he said, “almost unbearable!” Well, after conferring again with my doctors, I elected against my twin brother’s advice, and asked for the spinal. The young anesthesiologist, a nice chap with Scandinavian roots, marked the starting time of the procedure as 2:15 p.m., and suggested to me that I inquire with my twin brother during my surgical recovery period, if he had experienced anything in his left hip at that particular time. The spinal freezing caused me to feel absolutely nothing from my bellybutton on downwards, but I was still awake during the procedure. It was an eerie experience that I have never encountered before.

He was apparently in great pain when he answered the phone, and promised to call us back again. I must have transmitted to him the great pain that I had experienced that morning. I had obviously shifted my weight while sleeping, causing me to wake up with excruciating pain in my hip and leg, which was quickly remedied with pain killers. Then my brother finally called back. This time we were both pain “coordinated,” so we engaged in a long brotherly chat. You might not believe it, but Kjell had actually been convinced by his surgical team to take the spinal freezing as well. It took some talking and a lot of persuasion, but they succeeded, and he was glad that they did. We calculated the time difference between Canada and Norway, and found that we both received the spinal freezing at the same time, give or take a minute or two. To quote the famous Montreal born actor William Shatner: “Is that weird or what?” The post-op nurses were for the most part really proficient at plying their TLC. There were of course times when my mind was blurred by pain and I didn’t quite see it that way, but at the conclusion of my stay, I must say that I felt very much taken good care of by nurses that cared.
This “report” will get too long if I were to discuss the hospital food in detail. Let me therefore just state that the quality of the food is for the most part very good, especially when it comes out of a cereal box, and some of the entrees were surprisingly of fairly good quality and tasty as well, however, the execution and delivery was not there. The biggest negative food encounter I had was with the “food assembly line.” Every morning I would get three printed menus outlining the menu options for the next day. I would follow their directions and circle my choices. Some items were marked with an asterisk, indicating that they would be delivered as part of the meal regardless of other choices. It became a game of “mark and see.” I lost! As an example: I would circle scrambled eggs, only to receive cream of wheat, or I would circle a cup of milk to be added as a beverage, only to lose the cup of tea that was marked with an asterisk etc. The Physio Therapists and the Occupational Therapists were all wonderful, caring professionals. They were working with Marion and I, putting me through all the post-op exercises that I have to do, including showing me how to put on my socks and pants without bending forward, and how to get in and out of a bathtub, or how to walk up and down stairs with the aid of a cane. My healing process is progressing nicely – a big thank you to all involved!

HOME SWEET HOME after losing their first five games of the season on the road, the Yorkton Bulldogs Junior lacrosse team bounced back with a third period comeback to beat the PA Predators 7-6 in their first weekend of home action.
Bulldogs win first game of 2013 at home By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After starting out their season winless on the road and losing their top scorer in Davis Vandane to an ankle injury, it seemed like the Yorkton Bulldogs Prairie Gold Lacrosse League season was over before it started after an 8-4 loss to the Saskatoon Smash on Saturday night put the Bulldogs to 0-5 on the season, a dismal start for a team that struggled to put together a full team to start out the year. All of those bad vibes to start 2013 were quickly erased on Sunday as the Bulldogs got revenge on a Prince Albert predators team that beat them down 16-3 on the road just one week prior to their tilt at the Farrell Agencies Arena. With key players cracking the lineup after not being able to make the road trip in the road meeting, the Bulldogs
brought a team that had more depth and more firepower into their rematch with the Predators. Prince Albert got the first goal of the game early on, but Paul Toth buried a bounce back goal off a nice find from Jerrason Fisher to tie things up before Prince Albert went on a run, taking the lead into the second intermission, still the first period performance was something that could be built on as the Bulldogs were much more competitive in the opening twenty minutes than in their 16-3 loss in Prince Albert the week before. The Predators continued to hold their ground to start the second, seemingly always finding an answer to the Bulldogs pressure. After staying close with the league best Smash on Saturday before seeing that hard fought effort slip away in the final half of the game, the Bulldogs would make sure that they wouldn’t waste an oppor-
tunity to turn around their season in their final game of the weekend. After Mackenzie Shore was jumped by a Predators player in front of the team’s benches in what was a chippy second period, the Bulldogs began to make their comeback, focusing on discipline and a hard work rate from all of their players, they began to chip away at the Predators, who were getting increasingly frustrated with the home team’s unwillingness to give up on Sunday afternoon. Timely late second period goals erased the Predators early lead to just one goal heading into the final twenty minutes. After going into the game with the Smash down 6-4 heading into the third, the Bulldogs knew that they would need to finish much stronger if they were going to snap their losing skid.

Cardinals drop three of four on road swing By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After starting the season with a mixed bag of results, losing two games and winning two to start their season, the Cardinals fell back to earth over their four game road trip. Dropping three of four games, as well as losing to the Weyburn Beavers on Thursday night at Jubilee Park, put the Cardinals record at 3-6 after nine games in the WMBL season. Before heading on the road, the Cardinals finished up a start to the season that saw them play four of five games at home with a weeknight clash with their East Division rival Weyburn

Beavers coming to town. Mike Meany would give the Cardinals the first lead of the game right and early in the bottom of the first inning, cashing in Liam Goodall with a sacrifice fly to give the Cardinals an early 1-0 lead at Jubilee Park to help out starting pitcher RJ Page’s cause with some run support. Sadly that was all that Page was going to get on that day, as the starting pitcher couldn’t help out his own cause to make matters worse, giving the lead right back during a two run second inning for the Beavers, who wouldn’t look back from that point wrapping up a 4-1 final at the end of the

game. Page went five innings, allowing four runs and walking three batters in the loss. The loss would end a Cardinals homestand where they played four of their first five games at home, losing three and winning just one before packing the bus and heading on a weekend road trip to Moose Jaw, Regina and Weyburn where manager Bill Sobkow hoped the Cardinals could turn things around. After a stellar Opening Day start, Steve Barnett was given the ball on Friday night to kick off a two game set with the Moose Jaw Miller Express in some inter-division play. Barnett

could not find the lights out stuff he had in the home opener, getting shelled for 10 earned runs in an eventual 13-5 blowout to kick off the road trip. Still there were bright spots heading into the second game on Saturday as Kameron Mizzell and Nick Gallipeau both hit their first home runs of the season as the Cardinals bats showed life going into Saturday. Matt Bowles two doubles continued a pace that had him at the top of the WMBL’s batting average category and the Cardinals bats came to life again on Saturday in the rematch. Cont. on Page 18.

Bulldogs win first of the season before All-Star break Cont. from Page 17 “I told my guys that if we were going to turn things around this weekend we were going to need to play a full sixty minutes each game and especially in the third period,” says the Bulldogs head coach. “Going into the third I knew that we would have to leave everything out there with a shorter lineup than every team in the league and my guys stepped up and we saw what happened out there,” the coach concludes. Veteran Jerrason Fisher kicked off the Bulldogs third period heroics, burying the game tying goal early on in the third period, giving his team tons of time to find the winner. Paul Toth, who scored the first goal of the game, was the hero scoring the final goal of the game to make it 7-6 before the Bulldogs all-
star goalie Louden Choptuik and the defense held on for the first win of the year. Fisher was ecstatic after the game, coming onto the team this weekend after needing to apply for a special exemption into the league being just days older than the league’s age limit, Fisher was a huge difference maker on Sunday as the Bulldogs showed that with a full roster, they are a much different lacrosse team. “We miss at least two, maybe even three or four of our key guys every time we play on the road with most of our guys working full-time careers which is always a challenge,” says the Bulldogs coach who mentions that the Bulldogs finishing off the season at home is something that they are going to be hanging their hat on. Fisher echoed those
statements saying, “Now that we have our first win and have most of our final regular season games at home I think we have a team that will be one to be reckoned with despite starting the year off slow.” Now the Bulldogs will look to Sunday as they will be hoping to take advantage of only sending one player to the 2013 PGLL All-Star Game as they play at home for the second straight weekend. Goaltender Louden Choptuik will be the only Bulldog at the event as Davis Vandane’s injury will keep him from participating in the game and for the rest of the season as the former Prince Albert Raiders defenseman’s return to the game of lacrosse has ended just as he was getting back into form with 11 goals to open the season. Jayden Dozorec, and Brennan Peleshytyk were
also named to the PGLL All-Star team, but were unable to attend the game in Estevan. Now the focus for the
Bulldogs will shift to continuing to climb the standings, a win away from fifth place and two away from fourth the season
can still be salvaged. A huge win at home may just be what turns around the Bulldogs 2013 season.
BULLDOGS LACROSSE had four players named to the PGLL All-Star team to be played in Estevan. Their next home action will be Sunday.
Yorkton four allowed to transfer to Melville Midget Baseball By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After much debate within the area and amongst the Saskatchewan Baseball Association, the four Yorkton Minor Baseball players (Mason Kelley, Derek Marshall, Jordan Bieber and Kholton Shewchuk) applying for the right to transfer to Melville’s Midget ballclub was allowed in Queen’s Bench Court as the party of four boys and their parents and the Saskatchewan Baseball Association were given an
understanding this week. With no Yorkton team and two of the Yorkton players playing in Melville last season, it was assumed that the four would be able to play for Melville’s Midget AA baseball team this season, but with the Saskatchewan Baseball Association feeling that the four players would be enough to field a 10 man Yorkton club. However 10 ballplayers is hardly a team given the need for relief pitchers, pinch hitters and depth considering not every player can travel to
every game, but SBA executive director Mike Ramage went ahead in making the decision that the Yorkton ballplayers would not be allowed to play in Melville due to living outside of their zone and preserving the best interests of Yorkton’s future in minor baseball. Yet with the timing of the decision coming during the season and with the four ballplayers having their eyes set on attempting to get an education with their baseball careers in an important year for developing their talents and draw-
ing the eye of college teams in Canada and down south, this decision was bound to get tricky and it ended up needing a court decision to get a agreeable discourse between the parties involved. The ruling has allowed all four players to join Melville’s AA team for regular league play as well as for provincials, provided that Melville keeps all of their players for the rest of the season and bump up to AAA Provincials with the addition of Kelley, Bieber, Shewchuk, and Marshall. Further decided was that in
2014, all four would once again have to reapply for a zone transfer to Melville’s baseball program if Yorkton did not have the means to field a team, and once again it would be at the discretion of the Zone Governor. For now, a messy debate between ballplayers wanting to play the game they love and the SBA trying to preserve fairness in Yorkton appears to be settled. The Yorkton four are excited to be back on the diamond. All that is left now is what the four wanted to be doing all along. Play ball.
Kees Taekwondo competes in 2013 Iron Fist Tournament By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer Thirteen competitors from the KEES Yorkton Taekwondo club participated at the fourth Annual Iron Fist Taekwondo Club Challenge in Winnipeg. The event was hosted by Iron Fist Taekwondo. The Iron Fist have been established in Winnipeg for more than 25 years, making this event a prestigous competition for the KEES Taekwondo team. The event was a welcome participation and experience opportunity for our junior elite and developing future elite players. The event was capped at 260 martial artists from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario and northern USA. There was over 32 clubs in attendance this year. The events consisted of sparring (Kyorugi), patterns (Poomsae) and
breaking (Kyupka). Athletes could enter up to three events. The competition in most divisions was very high this year, making the tournament one of very high intensity. Coaches for this event were Master Wayne Mitchell, Sam Lohnes and Shane Varjassy. There were many notable results for KEES to take away from the June tournament. Tyana Daigneault came away as a triple medalist, earning the top medal haul for KEES. Tyler Buenneke, Kallie Buenneke, Nathan Head and Josiah Head
showed strong performance as double medalists. Tyler Buenneke was the gold medalist in the Junior B Black belt light weight sparring division winning all two tough matches against taller opponents. Nathan Head had opponents with much higher belts but his performance was much superior to even those advanced players. He decimated his opponent in one of his three games by a score of 27 to 0. Zane Chopik competed in the black belt division for his first time. In the gold medal
match, Zane was ahead by three points. As the time was running down his opponent kept a high level of pressure on that ended the game with a 9 to 8 score. Zane settled for the Silver medal. Tyana Daigneault and Janaya Head met each other in the third match for the gold medal. It was a very exciting match that went to overtime. Tyana came out on top this time with the gold.

Saints settle for double bronze at provincials By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After a relatively strong showing at East Central Districts, the Saints track team had to settle for two bronze medals in the relay at 2013 SHSAA Track and Field Provincials. Despite the let down of no individual medals for the school in 2013, the Saints did see the Sutter family bring the
school some glory in the relay events for the East Central District team in Moose Jaw. Jonah Sutter brought home a bronze medal in the Midget boys 4 x 100m relay for medal number one for the Saints. Jonah took home his first ever provincial medal in what was a well rounded trip to provincials with his bronze as well as a 4th place in triple jump, 5th in long jump and
6th in the 100m final. Jonah will me a midget again next year, making him a favorite for a medal haul in 2014 in his second year at the midget level. Jonah’s brother, Caleb Sutter’s, relay team tied for the gold medal in the 4 x 100m. However that was with hand timing and the East Central team ended up with bronze after looking at the camera timed results
from the semi-finals. Caleb also placed 17th in long jump. Both boys had medal hopes for their long jump events yet couldn’t seem to jump close to their personal bests in the event Jonah’s district jump would have given him a gold in Midget boys, but he could not match his success at the Yorkton meet in Moose Jaw. The rest of the Saints results are as follows:
Justine Zarowny had a great meet running personal bests in nearly all of her races. She placed 8th in the 3000m, 8th in the 800m, 12th in the 1500m and 17th in the 400m. A well rounded performance given the grueling schedule of the four longest distance events on the track over just two days. Allison Kruger placed 16th in the quadrathlon.
Christina Mentanko placed in the 5th in her heat in the 100m and failed to move on to the semis and 5th in her heat in the semis and failed to move on in the 200m. Rita Fetsch placed 7th in her semi-final in the 80m hurdles and didn’t move on to the final. Evan LaJambe ran his personal best in the 3000m and placed 28th.
Yankees beat Supers to remain at top of the SESBL By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
Defending their 2012 Southeast Saskatchewan Senior Baseball League crown, the Yorkton Yankees have came across a worthy rival in the Canora Supers to start the 2013 SESBL season. With both teams starting the 2013 season on a tear going undefeated heading into a Tuesday night clash at Jubilee Park, a much anticipated clash for first place in the league would be the first test to the Yankees title defense after being the class of the league defeating the Willowbrook Royals in the 2012 final. Logan Calanchie would get the start on the mound for the Yankees who went with their staff ace to go up against the Supers starter Colby Parachoniak in a duel between two very hard throwing pitchers. With both starters on their game, the Yankees relied on some clutch baserunning and timely runs to outlast the Supers in what was a game with little offense as the two high powered offenses combined for just seven hits with Calanchie and Parachoniak dealing on the mound. At the end of the day, Delane Lamb’s lone RBI of the game and a run reached on an error proved to be the difference as the Yankees took a 2-0 win to advance to 7-0 on the season and end the Supers seven game winning streak to open up the season, a huge win for the Yankees as the Supers have been emerging as the favorite to knock off the Yankees in their title defense in 2013. Both starting pitchers were lights out on Tuesday night. Parachoniak, who plays college ball in upstate New York during the school year, threw 11 strikeouts in six innings of work, walking just two batters and allowing
just one earned run in a start that would be good enough to win on most nights, but just didn’t get the run support needed to get the win. Calanchie was equally as good on the mound for the Yankees, striking out seven, walking none and allowing just three hits in getting the decision for the Yankees. With both teams averaging six plus runs a game, the pitching numbers are even more impressive as both starters shut down lineups that have been providing opposing pitchers with countless problems all season. Now with both the Supers and the Yankees sitting at seven wins apiece it is apparent that the race for the SESBL title this season is looking like a two horse one with the rest of the league trying to catch up. With 51 runs in eight games for the Supers and 67 runs in seven games for the Yankees the two ballclubs have over double the total runs of every team in the SESBL at this point while having the best pitching at the same time as the two teams continue to pull away from the pack at the top of the league standings table. Last year’s playoff teams in the Langenburg Indians and the league runners up from 2012 Willowbrook Royals are still in the hunt however with both teams posting four wins so far this season with the Indians at 4-2 and the Royals at 4-4. With the dominance of the Supers and Yankees both statistically as well as in the win column it is hard to see any team making a move to catch them, but the Indians at 4-2 could very well pull away from the rest of the SESBL with the only above .500 record beyond Canora/Yorkton. Past the top four teams, sit the Swan River Reds (2-3, fi fth place), Melville Bison
(1-4), Russell Bulls (1-6), Parkland Padres (0-4) and Yorkton Orioles (0-2) to round out the SESBL standings up to this point. After a 2-0 win over their new rivals atop of the league, it seems that the Yorkton Yankees are ready to answer any challenge that comes their way in their title defense. In a league that has been dominated by two ballclubs to open up the season, the rivalry between these two teams may become the storyline of the local senior season. So far Yorkton has the bragging rights, staying undefeated as champions, but there is a lot of baseball left to be played this summer.
YORKTON YANKEES walk off the field after their 2-0 win over the Canora Supers on Tuesday night at Jubilee Park. Logan Calanchie pitched a complete game shutout to keep the defending champions undefeated to this point in 2013.

Raiders track hauls four medals at provincials By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer It may not have been the athlete combination that the Raiders thought would bring them 800 meter success at 2013 SHSAA Track Provincials, but the YRHS track team still got their two medals they expected out of the event as Cole Burkholder joined Jaden Porte at the podium as the two took silver in Moose Jaw over the weekend to give the city its only individual medals for 2013. The two Yorkton Legion Track Club athletes took gold at East Central Districts, with Porte setting a record time in Junior Boys and Burkholder winning the Midget race, setting the table for their impressive podium finishes. Kellie Onda-Onglis, who set the record in Midget Girls at districts, settled for fifth place at provincials, preventing a triple podium finish in the 800, but the success of Burkholder and Porte will have the school smiling this week. Burkholder said that after his gold finish in the home meet he expected to finish on the podium, but he was pleasantly surprised at how well he performed. “Winning gold at districts you obviously begin to get the thoughts in your mind that you have a real good shot at medalling
but I was blown away with how close I came to winning gold and am really happy with my silver medal,” says Burkholder. Porte, the record setter, was confident heading into provincials after a successful indoor season and was also pleased to finish off a year of hard work with a medal for his school, saying, “I trained hard all year and was in the top two of most meets so this result was expected but I was still really happy to finish my year on the podium.” Porte also mentioned that after finishing the rest of the club season in the 800 meters, he will be shifting his focus onto distance and cross country, dropping the long sprints for next year. Porte showed that his promise in the distance events in Moose Jaw, narrowly missing another medal with a fourth place finish in the 1500 meter race. The other two Raiders medals came as part of the East Central’s relay teams as Caleb Bymak and Brendan Weber won bronze in the 4 x 100 meter relay in the Midget and Junior boys events respectively. Four other fourth place finishes prevented the YRHS from having a more impressive medal haul, but the near medal finishes, despite being a bitter pill to swallow for the individual athletes, led the YRHS to finish 7th amongst 4A schools in the SHSAA’s new team
Cards struggle Cont. from Page 15 The hot bats would lead to a reversal of fortunes as the Cards peppered the Miller Express in the rematch on Saturday, winning 14-5 to split the two game set and bounce back from the frustration of their loss on Friday. A Sunday afternoon game with the Regina Red Sox followed as the Cardinals continued their road trip, avoiding the rain, but not the heartbreak as a walkoff run in the bottom of the ninth foiled the Cardinals, who once again wasted quality pitching against the defending back to back league champs. Mike Meany got the Cardinals lone RBI of the night to tie things up at 1-1 in the sixth inning, but it was for nothing as Kody Rock could not find the relief magic he showed in the Cards extra innings win over the Millionaires as the pride of Canora was saddled with the loss in relief. A rain delay on Monday pushed the Cardinals game against the Weyburn Beavers to Tuesday where starting pitcher Shaniel Rivera was rocked for five runs in a five inning outing, putting the Cards in the hole going into the latter half of the ballgame. Weyburn
would add another run off Kody Rock in the sixth to extend their lead to 6-1 before a four run inning brought the Cardinals all the way back to life as the Cards chased Chris Housley off of the mound before Houston Creighton put out the fire to preserve a 6-5 lead. The Beavers would add one more run for insurance in the bottom of the seventh and that would be it for the Cardinals rally hopes as they fell painfully short to lose 7-5 to the Beavers despite a two RBI night for kevin McLeod. Next for the Cardinals is a final road game against the Melville Millionaires, who the Cardinals have beat twice this season before a lengthy homestand at Jubilee Park as the Miller Express and the Lethbridge Bulls come into town for a busy weekend that will see baseball on three consecutive days. This homestand will be key for the Cardinals who have fallen to 3-6 and are in danger of digging themselves a hole very similar to last season if they can’t turn things around fast. Some signs of a winning ballclub have been there, but in order to make the playoffs you need to win games, the Cards need to find out how to fast.
points system, designed to create a focus on team success in an event that is often dominated by individuals who run track year round for city clubs. “I think what we saw this season in terms of results was indicative of how things usually go when it comes to provincials” says Miller on the Raiders results. “We had two of our full time track athletes garner our only individual medals and that is often how it goes when the shift from districts to provincials makes the talent pool much, much deeper, and with a handful of fourth, and fifth place finishes we saw that our school could have very well had more medals than we ended up with,” says Miller. Those near misses will be an initial letdown, especially for senior athletes who move on this summer. Daniel Mandziuk, a volleyball and basketball star at the YRHS for example finished fourth in the 400 meter sprints as well as in the 4 x 400 meter relay, but Miller mentioned that athletes who finish so highly should put it all in perspective and hold their heads high. “When you look at the big picture, if you finish in the top ten, top five, or reach your personal best on the big stage at provincials with the best athletes in Saskatchewan surrounding you, should be proud at where you sit amongst everyone
and that you did your best, and that is what I hope a lot of our athletes will do given time” says Miller. Miller also praised the new scoring system, saying it is nice that top ten finishes and personal bests will have added weight as well as being able to see how the YRHS stacks up against other 4A schools in the province. Next season the Raiders will be returning all four of their medal winners to the track program, something that bodes well for the YRHS, who will be hoping to add some gold medal banners to the hallowed walls of the Regional gym in 2014.

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, June 13, 2013 - Page 19A
Stanley Cup Finals preview: Expect Boston/Chicago classic After half a season of will they/won’t they lockout discussion followed by a shortened season and a playoffs mired by injuries and suspensions, the 2013 Stanley Cup Final was finally set this weekend as Patrick Kane’s hat trick in Game Five sent the Chicago Blackhawks back to the final where they won in 2010. The Blackhawks made quick work of the defending champion Los Angeles Kings, dispatching them in five games in what many expected to be a tight series between the Hawks and the physical Kings. Meeting the Blackhawks in the final will be the 2011 champion Boston Bruins. After nearly collapsing after having a 3-1 lead in the first round against the Maple Leafs, the Bruins have went on a tear in the playoffs. Taking out the pesky New York Rangers in the second round before shockingly sweeping Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins in the East Final. A result that shocked the hockey world maybe shouldn’t have been that much of a shock as the Bruins flirted with second place in the East until the final day of the regular season and were every bit as proactive as the Penguins were at the deadline, but the Bruins sweep has now set up what has the potential of a very special Stanley Cup Final between two very proud franchises and teams. The two teams seem to be as even as can be on paper. Both teams have unworldly depth with four lines of hard working and talented
forwards while having the blueliners to boot. In goal, Tuukka Rask is the perfect foil to the Blackhawks steadynot-great Cory Crawford. On the blueline Duncan Keith and Zdeno Chara will both be the focal points of two blueline units that live for the playoffs and love to get things going from the points. Both teams have won the Stanley Cup in this decade and have two of the best American fanbases in the league. The list goes on and on. These two Original Six franchises are as even as they come. Yet, in terms of style the Boston Bruins may just get the nudge in the physical department. The overblown hype around Gregory Campbell’s broken leg penalty kill aside, the Bruins have shown yet again that they are a team that is built for playoff hockey. A team that lacks crossover stars compared to the Hawks, who boast both American Patrick Kane and the arguably best two way forward in the NHL this season in Jonathan Toews, make up for a lack of stardom with the swagger of a team of players that at times play like they know they aren’t as respected as much as they should be. Patrice Bergeron is as good as they come and Brad Marchand compliments him perfectly. David Krejci and Milan Lucic combine with Nathan Horton to provide the big body presence on the Bruins top lines on what is a well built hockey team that is just one season removed from beating a Presidents Trophy winner in the Cup Final
YUFC men lose 5-2
By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
After a cancellation of their first two home fixtures of the 2013 RSA season gave the Yorkton United Football Club a two week layoff, the YUFC was back at it again in Regina, taking on the top of the table Cosmos at Liebel Field. Two 1-1 draws in their opening road games in May gave the club the confidence that they could grab their first win, but a quick two goals from the Cosmos to open the first half put the YU on their heels. Using longball tactics to their advantage, the first Cosmos goal came when a ball sailed over the Yorkton backline to the Regina striker, who made no mistake to make it 1-nil. The second goal came on a set piece corner to make the Yorkton deficit two before the away club began to get its footing. Despite starting to get chances, the Cosmos tacked on another goal to their lead on the counter attack before Paul Litzenberger scored before the 45 minute whistle to make it 3-1 at the half. In the opening part of the second the YU were making their push, nearly chopping down their deficit off a corner kick
when a volley from their right back in the box rattled off the crossbar. Dougal Todd scored a beautiful strike from 25 yards out just moments later to erase the missed opportunity and put the United to within one goal. The 3-2 scoreline would give Yorkton some added energy for the next twenty minutes, pushing up the pitch and giving the Cosmos, whose longballs were stifled in the second half, troubles even getting the ball outside of their half due to Yorkton’s high press. An inspired effort was all for nothing as a strike from near the top of the 18 yard box deflected off keeper Jonny Bell and into the goal to make it a 4-2 score and sinking the hopes of a comeback for the United, who were dominating the run of play in the second half. Regina would score a header on the final play of the game to make it a 5-2 final and hand Yorkton its first loss. Two home games on Saturday will see the YUFC get its first home action of the season with an eye on six points. At zero wins, two draws and one loss wins and points are in need for a squad that is on the verge of a rebound.
Ruttig’s rants Column Chase Ruttig (As a Canucks fan, I just threw up a little writing that last paragraph). Still, regardless of the Bruins depth and physical play you would have to be crazy to consider them as the favorites over a Blackhawks team that started out a lockout shortened season with the longest regulation unbeaten streak in league history and cruised through the Western Conference Final, beating a team that is very similar to the Bruins in the LA Kings. It is very likely that the Bruins edge in the size department will once again be a nonfactor in this series after Chicago recently just proved that they can handle playing with a team that will attempt to challenge them physically. Chicago can also claim that it has two of the best
players in this series, as the two superstars playing in this year’s final will both be wearing Blackhawks uniforms. Patrick Kane’s Game Five hat trick performance that included a late third period go ahead goal and the eventual overtime winner, has once again been one of the league’s best offensive talents, coming back from time spent with HC Davos at the Spengler Cup during his European stint during the lockout to pair up with his running mate in Toews. Toews himself has been one of the best players in the league during the 48 game regular season and despite some scoring struggles and trouble during the second round series with Detroit, has been the league’s best two way center since the opening of the season and he will
likely have to step his game back up to that extremely elite level he has shown throughout his career if the Blackhawks are going to outlast a Bruins team that is designed to wear you down and just stopped the best offensive player in the world in Sidney Crosby for four straight games. Those two lopsided Conference Final victories for the Blackhawks and the Bruins is what makes this series so exciting and so hard to predict and breakdown. In a year with no interconference play and the sample size thrown even more out the window in a shortened season in a league that is all about who gets hot at the right time more often than not in the first place. Boston was no slouch in the regular season by any means, but Chicago’s dominance in the regular season and against the defending cup champions over the past week make it hard to see past them when picking a winner in this series. At the end of the day you can’t go wrong with either teams in this battle that could go down as a series that could continue to grow hockey’s popularity in the United
States. Two major US markets and Original Six franchises who play in loud buildings and with very attractive styles of play is something the NHL always has on its Cup Finals checklist. Last year’s Kings/Devils final was an intriguing one, but this is a matchup where regardless of your rooting passion during the rest of the NHL season, that everyone should enjoy, The hockey fan is the true winner this summer, and I could cop out and not make a prediction, but that is never my style. Last year in this column I picked the Kings winning in six games and despite what I said about the Hawks I am going with the upset special in 2013. After shutting down Crosby/Malkin and the high powered Pens, the Bruins will wear down Kane/Toews in a classic six game series. Chicago may have dealt with what the Kings brought physically, but Boston just has more skill than last year’s Cinderella champions. B’s in six. Book it. Enjoy the hockey everybody. This column was written before the Stanley Cup Playoffs began on Wednesday night.

YBID NEWS A look at what is happening in the Yorkton Business Improvement District
Good day all and is this not a wonderful time of the year! It most certainly is time to color up our community. Residents are planting gardens and ďŹ&#x201A;owers and the YBID team is hard at it as well. Youngâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Plant World has notiďŹ ed us that soon our ďŹ&#x201A;ower pots will be ready for distribution. Prairie Harvest is our YBID partner in distributing the ďŹ&#x201A;owers each year as well they maintain the ďŹ&#x201A;owers as best they can so if you see a ďŹ&#x201A;ower pot that needs attention please let our ofďŹ ce know, or even better take a stab at ďŹ xing the plants up yourself. The Clean Sidewalk team are hard on the job. They began last week learning the routes and just what to pick up and where to deposit it. This year YBID has increased the budget for this project and they will be working Monday to Friday cleaning up our sidewalks. If you see the SIGN folks, and you will, give them some encouragement. The YBID Clean Sidewalk Team are all clients of our partners at SIGN and together we make this happen, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great project.

Congratulations to all of those people in the YBID membership who took part on the annual Yorkton Short Film and Video Festival as well as the Golden Sheaf Awards. Like so many events and activities this major International event could not happen if it were not for the efforts of the business community, many of who are YBID members, so give yourselves an award for another job well done. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re one of the many groups that holds fund raising HOTDOG SALES during the summer let us know and we can pop it into this page and tell everyone. But remember to give us ample notice so it hits the press before the mustard dries.
