City explores off-leash park options
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
The dogs of Yorkton could be getting a new place to run and play. An off-leash dog park is in the works and interested community members attended an information meeting to see current plans and what needs to be done to take the concept to reality. Lisa Washington, Community Development Manager for Community Development, Parks and Recreation, says the proposed park would be located at J.C. Beach in a former picnic area. The projected cost of the project is $38,000, with the main expense being fencing at
$27,000. Other amenities being included will be signs indicating the rules, benches, privacy inserts on the ball diamond side and trash cans for dog waste. The city has earmarked $25,000 for the project, with the remaining $13,000 coming from the fundraising efforts of community members. At the meeting, interested people were recruited to start talking about ways to raise the additional funds to get the idea off the ground. The next step for the park will be an on-site meeting, which will depend on what happens when the snow melts. Washington hopes to have the location open in summer,
– dog park location chosen though she admits that it is difficult to predict how long it will take for the project to be complete. “The big thing about these outdoor projects is that it depends a lot on the weather, but I’m optimistic. We have
people now that are stepping forward, it’s not just people saying that it is a good idea... These are volunteers that are dedicated to seeing this through,” Washington says. Community members will be a driving force for the project, and Washington notes that they will be responsible for ensuring everyone abides by the rules and keeps the location tidy and friendly. She says that it’s going to be driven by the people of the city who will be using it, and this is why there are information meetings at every part of the process. The location is an example of the input from interested dog owners, Washington reveals, saying it was an idea
that came up during consultations. Washington also notes that this is an example of why people need to inform relevant city staff of what they would like to see in Yorkton. While there was a Facebook group that wanted a park, she says that the city was not aware of the desire for a park until recently, and came up with the idea after a conference that highlighted how offleash parks were catching on elsewhere. “It’s a matter of getting people to engage in an old fashioned way, maybe not electronically.” Continued on Page 2.

century21plus.ca Local teachers win big Life just got a little more interesting for at least two Yorkton residents. “It was a good call to make,” says Donald Tkachuk who recently made a once-in-a-lifetime phone call to his very good friend Roby Sharpe to tell him that they had just won $1 Million on LOTTO 6/49! Tkachuk had just checked a stack of tickets at the Shoppers Drug Mart on 33-277 Broadway St. East in their hometown while running errands. “I felt really good; there were a few $10 and $20 wins – it’s my lucky week!” he says, remembering checking the tickets. “Then the screen goes blue and the writing at the bottom says, ‘Major Win’.” Tkachuk and Sharpe’s ticket had matched the Guaranteed Prize Draw winning selection for a $1 Million prize on the Wednesday, February 26 draw. “The clerks behind the counter were really excited,” Tkachuk recalls. After talking to Western Canada Lottery Corporation and leaving the excitement in the store, Tkachuk called LONG TIME FRIENDS and local teachers, Roby Sharpe (left), and Donald Tkachuk are the latest to add their names to the list of lucky Saskatchewan lottery winners. The pair recently walked away with a grand prize of $1 million.

Sharpe. who thought he was joking about the win. “He sounded kind of sad and serious,” Sharpe recalls and when Tkachuk asked what Sharpe would do with his $500,000 share; he dismissed it as a lark. “If there’s one thing I don’t joke about, it’s money,” Tkachuk says. After a few minutes of discussion on the phone it didn’t seem to convince Sharpe so Tkachuk decided that maybe seeing would be believing. He paid a visit to the Sharpe household where he was greeted by Sharpe and his wife. “He was acting all cool, and I asked him, ‘What are you doing here?’ Then he showed me the ticket,” Sharpe says. His wife took a look at the ticket and validation slip. “She said, ‘Oh my God, you won $100,000?’ I told her to look again,” Tkachuk remembers. The long-time friends plan to use their share of the winnings to pay down some debt, help immediate family and Sharpe may fix up a family cabin.

“Farmers’ privilege” will remain intact In early December, the Government of Canada introduced a bill intended to stimulate investment and innovation in the agriculture sector. The Agricultural Growth Act, once passed, will give Canadian farmers sharper tools to compete in world markets. It will also increase their access to new crop varieties, enhance trade opportunities and reduce red tape. Included in the bill are changes to the Plant Breeders Rights Act to conform to the 1991 Convention of the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plant (commonly known by its French acronym UPOV). UPOV established the first Convention in 1961 (UPOV 61). Since then, there have been three revisions. Canada’s present Plant Breeders’ Rights Act is based on the 1978 UPOV Convention (UPOV 78). UPOV 91 contains new elements that provide stronger protection for plant breeders than any previous convention. The changes to the Plant Breeders Rights Act are based on those elements. An effective plant breeders’ rights system should create an environment that encourages and supports the development of new plant varieties. Amending the Act could encourage increased investment in plant breeding. This potentially gives Canadian farmers more access to new and innovative plant varieties. In a global marketplace, such
Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz access would allow them to be more competitive. The proposed amendments would not change what Canadian farmers are legally permitted to do with protected plant varieties. If farmers legitimately obtain varieties of protected seed, their liability won’t increase. In other words, if a farmer buys protected seed from someone the breeder has authorized to sell it, the breeder will not be able to exercise his/her rights on the grain. The UPOV 91amendments would make it possible for Canada to explicitly lay out in the Plant Breeders’ Rights Act that farmers would be allowed to save seed produced from a protected plant variety, and use it for replanting on their own farms. This is known as the “farmers’ privilege” and is currently contained in the Act.
Under Canada’s current Plant Breeders’ Rights Act, a farmer is restricted from buying or selling either pedigreed or common seed, or any other type of propagating material of a protected variety, without the breeder’s permission. This would not change under the amended Act. Before our government introduced this bill, consultations took place with plant breeders, farmers, horticulturalists, seed dealers and other interested citizens. Their feedback confirmed that Canadian stakeholders generally support the proposed changes. In addition, many other groups directly involved with the industry have asked the government to implement the UPOV 91 Convention. These include: · Pulse Canada · Canadian AgriFood Trade Alliance · Canadian Federation of Agriculture · Grain Growers of Canada · Canadian Seed Trade Association · Prairie Oat Growers Association · Western Canadian Wheat Growers · Canadian Canola Growers Association · Canadian Seed Growers Association You can read the Act yourself by searching the Agricultural Growth Act, Bill C-18, at www.parl. gc.ca.
St. Patrick’s Day concert planned for Yorkton By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Ballyhooley is a celebration of Irish song and dance, and it’s coming to the Painted Hand Casino on March 15. Saskatchewan singer Eileen Laverty says the show is bringing together the Celtic roots of the province’s music scene. The show began last year, when Michael Hughes of Circling Over Shannon and Laverty decided to take on their roots and collaborate on a show that brought out the best of traditional Irish music. While they had the music down, they realized that it would not be complete without dance, a major part of the Irish folk music tradition. That meant bringing on the River City Reelin’ Rockettes. The show is a true collaboration, Laverty says, and from the very beginning they were exploring how they could collaborate and bring something new to the other’s repertoire. She says that it’s a constantly shifting lineup on stage and off, as the group shifts to best
accompany each song. The goal of the performance is to have a good time in the month of St. Patrick’s Day, of course, but Laverty says they wanted to create an experience that expressed the Irish culture in an authentic way. They did not want to do a “Hollywood version” of Ireland, but to bring the real roots out to people and but on a show that captures an authentic spirit of Ireland. “I thought this would be a great opportunity to showcase authentic Irish music and authentic dancing. It had to be genuine,” Laverty says. “People finding these old tunes and sharing them and keeping that tradition alive is very important.” That tradition involves having a good time, and Laverty promises that the evening will show why those traditions have remained popular and vital. “It’s a lively night and the dancers certainly kick it up a notch. We have a lot of fun on stage, and I think if we can have fun on stage too and put on a show

Eileen Laverty for folks then they should enjoy themselves for sure.” The show is also going
back to Laverty’s own roots. The Belfast-born singer says that her roots are a big part of
her music, and as she writes and records her own songs they are drawing from the traditional sounds and forms of her roots. “The music speaks to me for sure, I’m very fond of the Irish ballad, the narrative tradition that’s very strong,” Laverty says. “You just have those songs that speak to you on a whole other level.” While this is the first time Ballyhooley has left Saskatoon, Laverty has played in Yorkton before and is excited to get back with the new show, which will be different than the solo

tours she has done in the past. She says that the group has known each other for years, and enjoys the opportunity to play together, and that the group brings out the best in each other and their music. “To me, nothing compares to making music with other people, and having an audience there to enjoy that and feed off that as well. On stage we feed off each other, we push each other, and there’s nothing else like it.” Ballyhooley will be at the Painted Hand Casino on March 15.

Stay safe – Let’s Talk About it! March 9-15 is Agricultural Safety Week in Saskatchewan. And with crop season and harvests just around the corner it’s the perfect time to remind local producers to “take care out there.” “I encourage all farm owners and managers to discuss safety with anyone who works on or visits the farm,” says Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart. “Farming has the potential to be dangerous for farmers, workers and their families. By having safety discussions regularly, you can identify safety issues and reduce risk on your farm.” This year’s safety theme “Let’s talk about it!” encourages farmers and communities to talk about farm safety. “Planning safety can be difficult to do when there is equipment to fix, chores to do and fields to be seeded,” Saskatchewan’s Workplace Safety Minister Don Morgan adds. “It’s important that farmers and workers remember that they are exposed to risks on a daily basis, so they must make safety a priority and safe work practices a habit in their daily activities.” For anyone wanting to access it, a Farm Safety Guide is available online at: www.saskatchewan.ca/farmsafety. Accidents can be prevented with a greater awareness and understanding. Let’s all do our part to see that this happens to the best of our abilities.
Imagine... a world without labels
It’s high time we stop labelling people and start treating PEOPLE as PEOPLE – PERIOD. Wether we are black, white, yellow, red, Hispanic, English, German or Muslim, in the end we are ALL just people – end of story. But sadly, even in today’s day and age, that’s rarely the case. I guess that’s why it bothers me when I hear of stories like this – wether intended or not – that appear to separate or not be all inclusive of certain segments of the population. Most recently I read about a boycott and threats in regards to a big event being planned at Legoland in London, England. Reportedly, a large Muslim group of about 1,000 people – made up of families with children – had booked the facility which includes a hotel for a family fun day. Great! I’m guessing it would be the perfect spot to host such an event. What kid wouldn’t like a day at Legoland? Perfect family atmosphere... So that’s not where the problem arises. Instead of having a “family fun day,” organizers for whatever reason apparently opted to call it “Muslim Fun Day”... And they wonder why they get opposition.... Needless to say, the big day was cancelled amidst threats, nasty phone calls and negative feedback. No
doubt Legoland management was also left disappointed at the loss of a big event. Why, oh WHY then, did they have to choose the name it Muslim Fun Day? Why didn’t Family Fun Day suffice? Or at the very least, not call it a private Shannon Deveau why family function? Maybe it’s nit picky but there’s just something about the “Muslim” tag that’s separating and offensive. Would people stand for it if Legoland had announced a “White Fun Day”? I think not. Legoland is regretful and claims misinformation was circulated. “We are appalled at what has occurred, and at the fact that the real losers in this are the many families and children who were looking forward to an enjoyable day out at Legoland,” a company statement said. And that’s true. It’s time to stop with the labels and start with human compassion. Then things like this would be avoided. We are all one in this crazy world, why not accept that and carry on? “Imagine there’s no countries. It isn’t hard to do. Nothing to kill or die for. And no religion too. Imagine all the people, Living life in peace. You may say that I’m a dreamer, But I’m not the only one, I hope someday you’ll join us... And the world will be as one” – John Lennon ... Imagine that, smart words...
The way I see it... Column
Parking attendants remove parking headaches Over the weekend I was impressed by the work put into the Parkland Outdoor Show and Expo. Most of that was focused on the large, obvious highlights – a great show layout, well chosen speakers and a focused approach to bringing in relevant exhibitors. But those are things you expect to be good, and I would like to highlight something you do not actually expect, that being the parking service. I’ve been going to events at the Gallagher Centre for years, and as soon as they start to get big, the parking starts to get increasingly chaotic, until you reach a point where the lot itself becomes a total mess. You have people who play invent-a-space who make the driving lane increasingly narrow, it’s difficult to tell whether or not a space is actually in a row, and you can’t drive down the lane to actually check, because it goes right to the fence. The further away from the building you get, the more wavy a particular lane becomes, until you have no idea where you actually need to park. It’s not the fault of anyone, just that the lot itself does not have actual lines and for some reason, as soon as lines disappear parking becomes complete chaos. It’s the same reason a grocery store lot becomes a similar mess at the first snowfall of the year, without guidance parking becomes a bit of a disaster.
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger The great thing about having the parking direction is that you have that guidance, a good idea for an event that everyone knew would be big, and would fill rows upon rows with different vehicles, many of which were large and difficult to actually park. The extremely attentive staff made it better, as they were able to find the spot closest to the building, while my instinct at this point is essentially to go to the very back row and hope for the best. I got a much better spot than I would on my own, which made the whole day go better than it would have otherwise. In short, I was impressed before I entered the building, because already people were working to make the
best experience possible. I have heard that people were grousing that they weren’t trusted to park on their own. They miss the point, it’s not about removing independence, but removing hassle. An event like this is going to, inevitably, attract a ton of traffic. Some of this traffic will be local, much of it will be from out of town, and whatever rules are in place for the Gallagher Centre’s overflow lot are going to be roundly ignored as people begin to flow in. That happens most of the time a big event takes place, and I’ll admit that the first thought in my mind when I have to attend one of the larger events held there is a certain dread about having to actually park. Knowing this, the fine people behind the Outdoor Show actually took steps to remove that pain, and I was extremely grateful to have that assistance when actually parking my vehicle. While one could argue for a more permanently paved and marked out lot, it’s used for many things so I’ll assume that would be impractical. As a gravel lot, it’s not going to get marked spots, because that will not work. But after the extremely pleasant experience actually finding a spot this weekend, I hope more events consider using such attendants, it makes the start of the day go smoother, and puts people inside where you want them faster.

Canadians deserve much better
To the Editor:
Stephen Harper’s Conservatives have a bad record when it comes to respecting our election laws. Now they want to skew the next election in their favour with voter suppression tactics straight out of the U.S. Republican playbook. The so-called “Fair Elections act” will block tens of thousands of students, seniors and low-income Canadians from proving their right to vote by eliminating the long-standing practice of vouching and the expanded use of voter ID cards.
“They deserve genuine electoral reform to stop fraud, prevent big money from distorting elections and ensure every Canadian can exercise their right to vote.”
At the same time, it muzzles the Chief Electoral Officer and bans Elections Canada from even promoting the right to vote. While the bill makes it harder for ordinary Canadians to vote, it will actually make it easier for big-money interests to influence
our elections by raising the donation limit to $1,500 and introducing loopholes to party fundraising spending. Finally, the after widespread voter suppression and fraud during the 2011 election, this long-awaited legislation was supposed to offer tools to crack down
on abuse. Instead, Conservatives refused to enact the most effective measure to enhance investigation—giving Elections Canada the power to compel testimony. Canadians deserve better. They deserve genuine electoral reform to stop fraud, prevent big money from distorting elections and ensure every Canadian can exercise their right to vote. Unfortunately, Stephen Harper has given us the opposite. Tom Mulcair, Leader of the Official Opposition.

To the Editor:
There is a lively environmental debate over the provincial government’s green light to the construction of a smelter near Langham. The broader question is the unwitting involvement of ordinary taxpayers. According to Fortune Minerals’ Environmental Impact Statement, one advantage of locating the smelter in Saskatchewan was the price of energy – 4.879 cents/kilowatt-hour (kWh) plus peak energy demand costs for an overall cost of approximately six cents/kWh. My electrical bill for energy and monthly charges is 14.0 cents/kWh. Based on its most recent Annual Report, the total 2012 SaskPower expense was $1,715 million and the net energy produced was 19,957 gigawatthours for a production cost of 8.6 cents/kWh. It would appear that large corporations get energy at prices far below the cost of production. I appreciate that governments want to create jobs and large energy-consuming projects do create jobs but I would consider it a far greater feat if our government would negotiate with all non-renewable energy producing provinces that none of them would use subsidized nonrenewable energy as a means of producing jobs, thus preventing this ‘race to the bottom’. I appreciate that past NDP governments share responsibility for current energy pricing policies but they are not the party that is currently promoting the development of huge energy-consuming corporations with what would appear to be taxpayer-subsidized energy rates. Could we now have experts from all points of view have a public discussion about the merits of using subsidized nonrenewable energy as an economic incentive to corporations to site huge energy-consuming facilities within the province.

Benefits of using zest from citrus fruits There are obviously many benefits gained from using the freshest of ingredients possible when cooking, and using the zest from citrus fruits is no exception. Whether you are using limes, lemons, oranges, or grapefruit, the zest from these fruits will not only add an abundance of flavor as an ingredient, but also create a decorative garnish if you choose. I will always remember eating peeled oranges as a child and they still had large pieces of the white part of the peel attached to them and tasted very bitter. This is normal. The pale underside of the peel of any citrus is called the pith. It is always more bitter tasting than the flesh of the fruit or the outer coloured part of the peel, called the zest. There are many ways to include zest as an ingredient. A seafood dish, for example, will always benefit from the addition of lemon zest. Lemon and seafood are a classic combination. Limes are often used in salsas and Mexican cooking so their zest will also enhance many of these types of recipes. Basically a rule of thumb would be to use zest in any recipe that already has citrus juice as an ingredient. This being said, the flavor of an orange chicken stir-fry will taste more complete with addition of orange zest added as an ingredient in the recipe or as a garnish on top of the finished dish. Also zest will compliment many desserts as well. Imagine a piece of spiced pumpkin cake topped with a dollop of whipped cream, delicate curls of bright yellow lemon zest, a vibrant green mint leaf, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. As a garnish, zest will brighten up the appearance of the final plating of your recipe, but should almost always be married up with other contrasting colours. In the cake example above we paired the yellow lemon zest with a green mint leaf and the warm rusty colour of cinnamon. For the orange chicken stir-fry I mentioned, use the orange zest, but maybe some thin diagonal slices of green onion
Chef Dez on Cooking by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com as well. Your imagination is your playground in the kitchen and you should experiment as much as possible to bring enjoyment and attractiveness to the table. There are basically three ways to remove zest from citrus fruits. Using a knife is one of them but it is not the most effective way, as you always run more of a risk of removing the bitter white pith as well. You are better off using a micro-plane grater or a zester. Micro-plane graters are the ones being used most on TV cooking shows lately. They are small, long graters with very fine teeth. When placed across the top of a bowl and the citrus fruit is rubbed on it, the bowl will capture the fine gratings of the zest. The downside of using one of these graters is that one always runs the risk of grating too far and getting the white bitter pith as well. I find zesters are a much better tool. It is a small handheld tool that has five little circular blades at one end. When it is dragged across a citrus fruit from top to bottom, it produces beautiful curls of zest while leaving the bitter pith behind. The obvious benefit of using a zester is for the long curls that are perfect for garnishing. The downside however, would be that if using zest as an ingredient you would then have a second step of chopping. If you currently do not own either tool, I would recom-
mend buying a zester instead of a grater. The zester is less expensive, gives you garnishing versatility and chances are if you are cooking, you already have a knife and cutting board out, so chopping the zest for an ingredient is not as much of a chore as you may first think. Whichever tool you choose, please remember that you usually get what you pay for. Don’t expect a zester purchased for one dollar to work very well. Buying premium kitchen tools are an investment into the health and enjoyment of home cooked meals. When taken care of properly they will last you a lifetime and thus be well worth the money you paid. Dear Chef Dez: What is finely chopped lemon zest? Is it grated lemon rind? Marvin M. Lomond, AB Dear Marvin: As explained above, zest is the outer-part of the peel of any citrus fruit – so not the white bitter pith of the peel but the outer coloured part of the peel. This holds a ton of essential oils of the citrus fruit and is screaming with flavour and aroma. In fact it smells more like the fruit than the fruit itself. Use a zester or a fine grater to remove it without removing any of the white bitter part of the peel underneath (the pith). Chef Dez is a Food Columnist, Culinary Instructor & Cookbook Author.

New exhibit unveiled at pARTners – artist reception slated By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
Angelina Kardynal is driven to create, and a new show at the community pARTners gallery showcases the different ways which she approaches art and design. Three styles are currently on the display in the show. The first is the most traditional, but also the most personal, with portraits of people in Kardynal’s family. One example is a series of three portraits of hands, showing three generations of women in Kardynal’s family, and the different ways they create. The second is more experimental, taking recycled and found objects and using them to create new shapes and textures, such as using twine, twigs and old frames in unexpected ways. The third is the most practical, with examples of Kardynal’s graphic design work, which she says is about expressing the needs of the client and what they want to say, rather than her personal artistic vision. Putting the exhibit together, Kardynal says that she saw connections between the different aspects of her work that she had never considered before, and as a complete show she found unexpected connections between the ways she used material. “When you see them together, you can see how I have a similar style throughout or a similar feel,” Kardynal says. While working with a variety of materials and mediums, one con-
“I’ve always liked creating, drawing and painting and making things... I’ve never had a show before, so to have all of my pieces up in one room, it’s nice and exciting.” – Angelina Kardynal
sistent through line with the collection is a need to create things in new and different ways. Kardynal says that she’s always thinking of different approaches and that when materials catch her eye, she begins to consider how to use them in a manner that is potentially unexpected. “I’ve always liked cre-
ating, drawing and painting and making things.” The show came together at the end of January, and Kardynal says that it was a rush to pull together a complete show. She says it’s a mix of new art and older pieces. “I’ve never had a show before, so to have all of my pieces up in
one room, it’s nice and exciting.” There will be an artist reception on March 15 at 1:30 p.m., at the community pARTners gallery in the Yorkton Public Library. Everyone is welcome, and Kardynal is excited about meet people and discuss her art. The show itself runs for the month of March.

DEFENDING CHAMPS. Awaiting their first round opponents, the Yorkton Terriers will kick off their quest to repeat as Canalta Cup champs next week as the SJHL Quarterfinals begin. For more SJHL Playoff Preview see Pages 10/12. File Photo
Defending champs look to repeat success By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The Yorkton Terriers will have to play the waiting game heading into the weekend as the regular season and defending SJHL champs will face the lowest seed that advances our of the league’s new postseason Wild Card round in the SJHL Quarterfinals under the new three division playoff format. One of the Terriers potential playoff opponents is known, but there is uncertainty heading into the weekend as the Flin Flon Bombers and Estevan Bru-
ins will play a fifth game on Thursday night to decide the winner of the #6 vs #10 Wild Card series. If Estevan wins on Thursday night the Terriers will play #9 seed Notre Dame in the Quarterfinals as their Viterra Division counterparts beat the Kramer Division’s Nipawin Hawks in four games in an upset to reach the Round of 8 that will begin this weekend. Regardless of the Terriers first round opponent they will be heading into things as the odds on favourites to lift the Canalta Cup for a second time. After all the Terriers
one upped their 2012/13 regular season performance by winning the league regular season title six points clear of the rest of the SJHL. In fact the 2013/14 Terriers improved in many areas during the regular season compared to their SJHL champion roster. In the scoring department the Terriers had two 60 point scorers in the regular season in Brett Boehm (66 pts) and Tayler Thompson (61 points) who both cracked Top 5 in league scoring. With defenseman Chase Norrish coming in 11th in the league scoring race the
Terriers have three players in the Top 20, something that they didn’t even achieve last year as Nathan Murray came in 25th. While the Terriers saw Jeremy Johnson come up in the clutch during the playoffs and had a balanced scoring team all year in 2013, the addition of Boehm and the improvement of Thompson and Norrish heading into their final Junior seasons this year’s team will be heading into the playoffs with a lot more front end firepower than last year’s champs had.

Bantam AA Terriers knock off Melville in playoff series By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The Yorkton Bantam AA UCT Terriers may not have been able to register back to back two game sweeps in the 2014 Saskatchewan Bantam AA Hockey League playoffs, but the Terriers will take a spot in the SBAAHL Division Finals after knocking off Moose Jaw and the Melville Millionaires already this month. In the first round of the playoffs the Terriers cast aside the seventh placed Moose Jaw Warriors in a 2-0 sweep in the Best of 3 SBAAHL playoff format, setting up a series with
Highway 10 rivals Melville in the second round. The Millionaires finished fifth in the league and having more hands on experience with the Terriers would have a higher chance of pulling off a potential upset than the Millionaires, something that the young bantams would have to keep in the back of their mind heading into a quick one week series where just two losses would end their season. With many players participating in Parkland Valley’s 2014 Saskatchewan Winter Games gold medal win the familiar teams would not only be playing for a spot in the semifinals to continue
their season, but also for local bragging rights amongst the neighbouring cities who have a long standing friendly hockey rivalry. Finishing 16 points above Melville in the standings it would be the Terriers who would be outgunned during Game One getting outshot by the Mils 26-17, but goaltending from Alex Geddes and timely scoring would help the Terriers from falling to the Mils volume of shots on goal. Kaleb Bulych would give the Terriers first blood with a late first period goal, but the Mils would score even later as Colby Holloway’s goal with thirty seconds left
in the period would keep the score equal after 20 minutes despite a late flurry of offense in a final three minutes that produced a goal apiece. Melville would take their late goal to tie things up in the first and use that momentum to shock the Terriers with a go-ahead goal at the Farrell Agencies Arena as Rin Beny would make it 2-1 to the Millionaires. Getting outshot and down a goal it appeared as if the young Terriers were about to drop a crucial first game with 6:45 left in the second period and trailing Melville. Cont. on Page 12.

Terriers playoff preview Cont. from Page 13 Kale Thomson has also stepped up in between the pipes for the Terriers, taking advantage of a veteran defense that eventually made up for the departures of former WHL talents Austin Bourhis and John Neibrandt to become equally as stingy in the back as the year before. Thomson went from losing his starting job to current Regina Pats goaltender Dawson MacAuley during the stretch last year to becoming a record setter, becoming the all-time leader in single season shutouts with eight. If Thomson can remain consistent in the playoffs as he was as the Terriers workhorse during the regular season the Terriers should have the quality in net once again to make the deep playoff run they are expected to make. The 2013/14 playoffs will also serve as a last hurrah for several long term faces on the Terriers roster. Captain Devon McMullen, who has been on two Terriers
teams that have played in a league final is in his last season as are; Tayler Thompson, Kale Thomson, Tyler Giebel, Derek Falloon, Chase/ Brady Norrish and Brett Boehm amongst a long list of 1993 born players. That amount of players putting their Junior careers on the line should make for a hungry and focused locker room that should be prepared to step up to the challenge of having the highest expectations heading into March. Regardless of who the Terriers will face in the first roumd, or for any round in their quest for a league title they will have the pressure of expecting to win. After all the Terriers won the league in six games last year and finished first in the league after returning much of their core. What makes them a strong team will bring the pressure of being expected to win as the Terriers will have the target on their back from day one in this year’s run during the playoffs. Last year the Terriers were just
another team looking to win the title, this spring the story will be different as they will have the championship experience, but also the championship target on their back in addition to being expected to make a run not just to the league title, but to potentially the Royal Bank Cup. For now the Terriers still don’t know their playoff future, or their first round opponent. Many will peg them to win the Canalta Cup for the second straight time, but upsetting the defending champions Humboldt last year the Terriers will know just how hard it is to lift the trophy and saw first hand how hard you have to fight to win it for the second time. Head coach Trent Cassan and a group of players that will be potentially playing their last games as Juniors will be hoping to use their championship experience to a second straight league title. If only they could find out who they were playing in the quarterfinals......

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, March 13, 2014 - Page 11A
Rapid fire rants: NHL Trade Deadline, college hoops, MLB March is an extremely busy time for me. From covering the start of the Junior hockey playoffs and all of the minor hockey title races I have time for, there is the NHL Trade Deadline, NFL Free Agency, college basketball’s postseason, MLB Spring Training and even the Champions League for soccer. There is a lot of ground to cover for a sports fan which is why the rapid fire rants make a triumphant return after an Olympics break. Here we go.. Goalie trades save NHL Trade Deadline The two trades that saved the 2014 NHL Trade Deadline from being just another boring year of meaningless trade action actually happened before the actual daylong trade deadline that has been beaten to death by TSN and Sportsnet as they try to pass of nearly 16 hours of studio coverage as a marquee event. The St. Louis Blues move to bring in Buffalo Sabres goaltender Ryan Miller to improve their goaltending and make the Blues title chances even more likely was the biggest move of the deadline as the already defensively sound Blues
may have just found the elite goalie they need to get them over the hump while Miller will finally get to leave the purgatory of Buffalo and have a chance to win for the first time in a long while after once being one of the NHL’s bright young stars while Buffalo was still respectable. Meanwhile in Vancouver the Canucks decided to offload highly paid goalie Roberto Luongo to Florida in an attempt to shed cap space for a much needed rebuild. Many have ridiculed the Canucks for offloading Roberto Luongo and Cory Schneider in a short span for low returns, but the moves at the NHL Trade Deadline speak to the new era of the NHL where highly priced goaltending may be a thing of the past. The best goaltender in the NHL rarely lifts the Stanley Cup at the end of the season and in the salary cap era every million counts. If the Canucks didn’t want to overpay for a goaltender during their process of rebuilding Luongo had to go. Canucks fans everywhere will just hope that youngster Eddie Lack can answer the bell until the end of
Ruttig’s rants Column Chase Ruttig what is turning out to be a nightmare season in Vancouver. Blue Jays back to boring heading into 2014 Spring training is alive and well, but you might not know it based on the lack of excitement surrounding Canada’s team as the Toronto Blue Jays hype train from their owners Rogers has been set to a more reasonable volume this March. After splashing on big name free agents and failing in 2013, the Jays aren’t expected to do much of anything in the 2014 season other than the typical Jays performance. They have some solid players, but lack the depth of the teams that will be vyying for the AL East playoff spots come the fall. That doesn’t mean
you still shouldn’t be excited for the Blue Jays season. Jose Bautista is still one of the best hitters in baseball, and you never know what might happen along the way. Having no expectations almost might be better for the average Jays fan who will just be glad that this year nobody is getting their hopes up with the promises of playoffs and contending for the World Series. After last year’s debacle many simply just want to enjoy baseball again. Being the underdog will help that cause.

the salary cap flexibility to afford two of the best defensive backs available in TJ Ward and Aqib Talib. With rumblings that the Broncos will also land a defensive end it is clear that veteran NFL players are willing to take a slight paycut to win a Super Bowl with Peyton Manning before his championship window closes. The Broncos are also very willing to mortgage the next few years on the ability to win a title before Manning needs to retire. The last quarterback of Manning’s age to win the Super Bowl was current Broncos front office executive John Elway and that was nearly 20 years ago. Denver is playing a risky game bankrolling their salary cap future on the next two years. Expect a mass exodus of players when Manning does retire in Denver, so my advice to Broncos fans is enjoy the ride while it lasts. Canada basketball talent again ready to invade March Madness It is becoming a new tradition to talk about the amount of Canadians that will be key figures in March’s marquee spoting event when the NCAA Tournament tips off next Thursday for another year. As fans fill their brackets they will be having trouble finding a bandwagon to jump on as there is a massive list of schools that will have Canadian content to enjoy in the tourna-
ment. From Big Ten champions Michigan who have guard Nik Stauskas, Kansas’ Andrew Wiggins, Iowa State’s Melvin Ejim, Arizona State’s Jordan Bachynski and many many more there is no shortage of new heroes from the Great White North for fans of the game to follow as they look to reach the Final Four and advance through the most entertaining playoff format in sports as the 64 best schools in the NCAA play in a one game knockout bracket. Last year there were well over 20 Canadians in the tournament, that number will increase this year as will the quality of talent. With Canada having the number one draft pick in the 2013 NBA Draft in Anthony Bennett and many more stars in the making still in the college ranks things are looking good for Team Canada to be one of the major players in the 2016 Olympics should the NB A send its players. For a generation of basketball fans who grew up on Vince Carter and the Toronto Raptors or the Vancouver Grizzlies for the older crowd, seeing the growth of the game explode with more Canadian talent out there is a testament to how the sport has been received here. No longer is Steve Nash the only Canadian icon for basketball. March Madness is ready to be enjoyed and Canada will be apart of the storyline.

Olympic curling Gold medallist Kaitlyn Lawes visits city By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After being the third on Canada’s first Gold medal winning women’s curling team since the 1998 Nagano Winter Games, Olympic champion Kaitlyn Lawes visited Yorkton on part of her tour with Canadian Tire to take pictures and autographs with the fans of Yorkton as well as to talk about her Olympic experiences with the city. Lawes says that the post-Sochi experience has been a surreal one. “I don’t know if it will ever sink in, it has been a crazy experience and to refer to myself as an Olympic Gold medalist will never sink in,” says Lawes. She also mentioned that the support from the Canadians since returning home has been a surprise. “Everyone who notices you is quick to congratulate us and it is just special to enjoy in this Canadian moment in a country that loves the game of curling.” During the Olympic games Lawes says that the support of the
Canadians on social media and the feeling of the Canadian support helped push them to Gold and has motivated her to share the moment with those across the country. “While we were in Russia you would get messages of support everyday whether physical messages or through social media showing just how much Canada was behind us and once I got home seeing the faces of children holding the gold medal in awe has definitely inspired me to share the moment,” mentions Lawes. Lawes stop in Yorkton came has part of a three stop tour with Goldline Curling and Canadian Tire part of a busy circuit of events since coming home. “It has definitely been pretty busy and we have been filled up almost every week with various events and a lot of media,” says Lawes who also says that the added spotlight and love from the country is definitely not a negative. “It is nice to see just how big of a deal us
winning Gold has been and how proud the country has been and we never quite expected it to blow up like it has been so this has been amazing,” says Lawes. As part of her tour Lawes says that she loves to share her medal with the Canadian fans. “People love to see the medal and I enjoy seeing the joy in the faces of Canadians who get to enjoy seeing the medal so seeing their faces and their pride taking a picture with it so I love to share the medal and I always bring it with me to share with the Canadians.” Talking about her Olympic experiences, Lawes mentioned that some of the best parts of being at Sochi involved getting to be around all of the athletes at the games and attend different events. “Being at the Olympics you are surrounded by your country’s athletes as well as the best athletes in the world at what they do so feeding off that vibe was an experience I will never forget.” Lawes also made sure
to mention winning with her teammates as one of the special parts of he whole Olympic ride. “Getting to win the Gold with some of the
best curlers in the country including someone who is as accomplished and as talented as Jennifer Jones was amazing and I will never forget getting to
share that moment with that rink and my teammates in representing our country to a Gold medal so everything has just been so special for me.”

Bantam AA Terriers one series win away from league final Cont. from Page 9 The Terriers had other ideas as they scored three unanswered goals to grab the win. Keanan Sperling tied the game before the end of the second period while Derrick Budz got the game winning goal before Carson Miller’s empty netter would ace an important home win to start the series off on schedule for Yorkton who did not want to have to travel to Melville in an elimination game after a Game One loss. In Game Two the Millionaires would switch their goaltender to Dylan Sies and the move would turn out to pay off major dividends as a hot Sies would make 54 saves in what turned out to be a classic playoff meeting between the two Bantam clubs as the Millionaires playing for their playoff lives pushed the Terriers to their limits on home ice. After a scoreless first peri-
od the powerplay would open up the scoring as the Millionaires earned the first goal of the night by the way of Jordan Mish following a Bulych high stick. Yorkton would then respond with two straight powerplay goals of their own from Carson Welke and Budz to give the Terriers a 2-1 lead. Carson Miller would score late on in the second period to extend the Terriers lead to 3-1, with less than 25 minutes left for the Millionaires to come back it appeared as if Yorkton would be on its way to two sweeps in a row to start the 2014 playoffs. However the underdog Melville team had other ideas. Colby Holloway would score on the powerplay with just over 90 seconds left in the second period before Connor Baber scored the game tying goal in the third period to send the game into overtime for the first time in the series. The two teams would play
for over 40 minutes with the Terriers outshooting the Mils 24-8, but in the end the hosts would get their moment of glory as Melville would take Game Two off of a Carson Sass game winning goal after an instant classic where the Millionaires came back and staved off elimination after going down 3-1 to one of the title contenders in Yorkton. In Game Three back in Yorkton on Saturday night the Terriers would show no interest in continuing to let the underdog Millionaires to hang around. After both teams tired themselves out during their triple overtime thriller, it would be Yorkton whose speed and athleticism made the difference in the final game of the series as the Terriers blew the Mils out of the water in an 8-2 rout to advance to the Division Finals. Seven different goalscorers contributed in the Yorkton win, Carson Welke would finish as the only
multi-goalscorer for the Terriers in the win with two tallys to his name. The UCT Terriers will now turn their focus on their South Division Final against the Prairie Storm, a battle that will pit the first place Prairie Storm up against the Terriers in a battle of the two best teams in the league during the regular season by terms of total points. Balgonie’s Prairie Storm finished with 58 points and just two losses on the season while the Terriers did equally well with just five losses and one tie during their 51 point season. Where the Terriers lack an edge in the regular season points department they make up for by holding an edge in goal differential as the Terriers +129 differential overshadows the equally as talented Prairie Storm’s +103 differential. In the final the Terriers will need to rely on their high end scorers in Carson Welke, Carson Miller and Kaedan Traphorn as the
Prairie Storm allowed just 50 goals all season, 1.6 goals per game. Yorkton scored 6.8 goals per game during the regular season so this battle could become one that pits high end offense against high end defense. Yorkton will be coming into the series as rare underdogs as the season series was swept by the Storm. All the way back in December they won games over the Terriers 2-0 and 3-2 to earn the season sweep, but both teams will likely know that a lot has changed since before Christmas and this should be a hard fought series between two teams that may think that a win in the South Final could mean a likely SBAAHL championship. The series action will start Thursday as the Terriers travel as visitors for Game One before hosting Game Two on Sunday. If there a deciding third game is needed the two teams will play the following Friday back in Balgonie.

century21plus.ca YUFC girls win silver in U-18 Division One provincials
Submitted Article
The Yorkton United Girls Under 18/16 team competed in the Division 1 Under 18 Provincial Soccer Championships in Saskatoon on March 7-9. This is the first time competing in the Division 1 Provincial Championships for this squad after winning four straight Division 2 Provincial Championships. The first game of the round robin was against the number one ranked Regina QCT squad. This game was a back and forth affair that saw Kendra Varjassy open the scoring of the game. QCT quickly responded and tied the game up at 1-1. Rita Fetsch scored back to back goals to give Yorkton a 3-1 half time lead. The second half belonged to QCT as they scored 4 straight goals to take a 5-3 lead. Rita Fetsch
added her third goal of the game late to make the final score 5-4 for QCT. The second game of the round robin saw Yorkton taking on Saskatoon Aurora. Once again Yorkton opened the scoring with Allison Berge finding the twine. Lauren Maier, Kendra Varjassy and Rita Fetsch with three goals extend the lead to 6 -0 , with the final score ending up 6-1 for Yorkton. The next game was against Saskatoon Eastside. This game saw the goal tending debut of Caleigh Grunert as starting goal tender Kristen Jonassen suffered an injury in games one and two which would prevent her from being able to play keeper. This game started out much like the previous games with Yorkton opening the scoring on a goal by Rita Fetsch. Fetsch would go
on to add three more goals with Kristen Jonassen adding a single marker for a final score of 5-1 for Yorkton. The fourth and final round robin game against Regina Unidad would determine if Yorkton would qualify for the final. This game started out quickly once again for Yorkton with Kendra Varjassy scoring 2 quick goals to start the game. Rita Fesch would add 3 more goals with Allison Berge chipping in with a single. Combined with the continued stingy defense and goal tending from the Yorkton defenders Yorkton would go on to win this game 6-1 and find themselves in a rematch with Regina QCT for the Provincial Championship. The final would see the top two teams square off against each other in a
rematch of the first round robin game. This time Regina QCT was able to get off to a quick start with two goals before Rita Fetsch was able to cut the lead in half just before half time. The second half started out much like
the first half with QCT scoring two quick goals to take a commanding 4-1 lead. Rita Fetsch added a second goal on a penalty kick late in the second half to make the final score 4-2 for Regina QCT. Winning the silver
medal in Division 1 for this Yorkton club is a great achievement for each and every player, and was the culmination of the many hours of training and practice put in by the players and coaches.
YUFC GIRLS WIN SILVER The Yorkton United Football Club’s U-18/U-16 girls team took silver in their first quest for Saskatchewan Division One glory.
SJHL playoffs quarterfinal preview: What you need to know By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After the Wild Card round matchups gave SJHL fans a taste of playoff action last week it is time for the main attraction as the SJHL Quarterfinals start this weekend. With North Battlefords and Yorkton awaiting their first round opponents based on the result of Thursday’s Game 5 between Flin Flon and Estevan two of the quarterfinal matchups have been set since the end of the regular season. #7 seed Melfort will take on defending North Division champions Humboldt as the Broncos take on the Mustangs in one of the quarterfinals while the #3 seed Kindersley Klippers will take on the #4 seed Melville Millionaires. Here is what you need to know about the SJHL’s quarterfinal matchups, along with a prediction of who should come out on top for entertainment purposes. #1 Yorkton Vs. Lowest Wild Card Seed (Notre Dame/Flin Flon) The Terriers will get to play either the Notre Dame Hounds or the Flin Flon Bombers should Flin Flon complete their improbable upset of the Bruins after discarding star forward Brett Boehm in a trade to Yorkton and star goaltender Devin Buffalo to the AJHL. If the Bombers lose the Terriers will simply just play another team they owned during the regular season in the Hounds. Because of travel purposes I assume the Terriers will hope to draw the Hounds, but either of the two potential opponents will be in tough to even win a game against the in-form Terriers on a week’s rest. Season Series Edge: Yorkton
Scoring Edge: Yorkton
able to outlast Melfort.
Humboldt
Defensive Yorkton
Edge:
Goaltending Humboldt
Goaltending Yorkton
Edge:
Losing their last three games against the Mustangs during a terrible second half of the season will give the Broncos some fear of the upset in this #5 against #7 series that could go either way.
Prediction: Yorkton in a four game sweep #2 Battlefords North Stars Vs. Second Lowest Wild Card Seed (Estevan/Notre Dame)
Season Series Edge: Tied
Battlefords will be hoping that the Bombers can upset Estevan on the road Thursday as the North Stars would be in tough against the Bruins who have scoring weapon Austin Daae and a history of winning against the Stars this season.

Prediction: Humboldt in seven games #3 Kindersley Klippers Vs. #4 Melville Millionaires After battling neck and neck with the Terriers for the Viterra Division title the Millionaires fell out of first place and home ice
advantage down the stretch. That will be a letdown for head coach Jaime Fiesel who will now have to take a young inexperienced team on the road and not in the Mils brand new barn that has one of the best home ice advantages in the league. Kindersley and Melville are nearly dead even in terms of regular season points and goal differential so this series could be the best of the quarterfinal bench, at the cost of
the nerves of both fanbases as well as the players and coaches.
Season Series Edge: Tied Scoring Edge: Melville Defensive Kindersley
Edge:
Goaltending Tied

Series Prediction: Mils in six games.
If the Bruins lose the North Stars should be able to walk through the Hounds, but they could be on upset alert against the streaky Bruins. Season Series Edge: TBD

Prediction: Stars in six games over Estevan, Stars in five over Notre Dame #5 Humboldt Broncos Vs. #7 Melfort Mustangs Humboldt dropped off after two straight years as the class of the SJHL, finishing third in a tough Sherwood Division the Broncos should still be favorites over the Melfort Mustangs who despite winning the Kramer Division have five less wins than the Broncos. If rookie sensation Ryland Pashovitz can continue to fill Matt Hrynkiw’s shoes in goal for the Broncos and enough of their new faces can step up in the postseason they should be
