Seed festival tries to grow communities gave anyone interested in gardening to get information and seeds to get growing. Stacey Tress, festival co-chair, says that the goal of the event is as much to build community. She says with local producers and gardeners getting together, it’s a way to discuss how to grow

By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer As the snow melts and the temperatures again begin to rise, the thoughts of local gardeners turn to the upcoming growing season. The Prairie Sun Seed Festival, now in its fifth year,

and what works in the area. The show is for all experience levels, with one shared goal, to get people growing in the area and learning from each other. “Personally, for me, I love the accountability of knowing a local producer, knowing where my seed

came from, to be able to call up and talk about what worked great this year.” The growing popularity of the event reflects that people are more concerned with where their food is coming from, what they’re growing in their own gardens and issues surround-

ing food security, Tress says. While the garden is the start of the process, the education continues through after the food is harvested, which drives some of the presentations. Tress notes one of the presentations built around how to cook with beans,

whether that means getting the most nutritional value or going into unexpected directions, such as cooking a fudge with black beans. “If it’s related to seed, it has a place here.” It was a family event as well, and Tress says it’s important to get kids interested in the environment and start helping in their own homes and learning about their own food. “Their minds are ready to learn, so it’s great to give them those grass roots tips and inspiration.” Rachelle Ternier with Prairie Garden Seeds in Humboldt was one of the presenters at the event, speaking about organic seed. She says their goal was to get people to learn about seeds and the terminology behind them. She says that there needs to be clarity so people know what they’re growing, eating and feeding to others. “What do terms like heritage, heirloom, open-pollinated, genetically modified, what do they mean? We throw them around in conversation because they are things that are very important to be talking about, but it’s really hard sometimes to get a clear idea of what things are.”

THE PRAIRIE SUN SEED FESTIVAL saw gardeners from around the area meet to share seed and advice, as well as learn for the upcoming growing season.

Fields of Light brings together four artists By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Four different styles and four different points of view, together in one show. Fields of Light: 4 Painters of the Parkland brings together four area artists – James Clow, Kristen Doyle,

Laura Gendall and Glenn Romasanta – into one show, currently running at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery. Between the four, they reflect different aspects of the province, whether rural or urban, above ground or under it. This was the first

time the artists have seen each other’s work together, and Clow admits that when he walked in the door he didn’t know what it was going to look like. The artists were contacted by Don Stein, executive director of the Godfrey Dean, who thought

their work would compliment each other, though for the artists themselves they didn’t know each other beforehand. Clow’s work involves the use of potash, something he was inspired to do so at work in a potash mine, with the rotor

grooves in the mine inspiring the work. He saw the mine as a kind of sculpture, something he admits made people think he was insane. “I would go along after lunch with a Ziploc bag and scoop up potash off the floor, and coworkers would say

“what are you doing?” I would tell them I was taking it home to make some art, and I won’t tell you exactly what their terminology was but they thought I was nuts. This is to get them to shut up.” Cont. on Page 3A

Spring is in the air. With melting snow and ice, the conditions of our well travelled roads and highways will be much more evident. The return of spring also means it’s time for CAA Saskatchewan’s Worst Roads Campaign. Motorists are invited to identify and vote for the worst roads they have travelled on in our province. And just what exactly defines a worst road? Typically these are roads that have potholes, cracks, are in general disrepair, have no or

Fields of Light brings together four artists Cont. from Page 1A This is a return to art for Clow, who has been away from fine art for a while, spending time working on traditional animation before moving back home again. He says he has more shows coming, though he admits he doesn’t know where he’ll find the time to put them together. “This forced me to push my work, being offered the chance to be in this exhibition. I wasn’t sure I could do it, someone gave me the motivation to push and keep experimenting.” Doyle uses found objects in her work, including things like buttons and yarn. She says that after moving many times she has collected a large number of bits and pieces which she has collected, and feels that adding them to the work is a way to add something which wouldn’t be there otherwise. “If I feel it adds to the piece, I will add it just for added texture and a memory too.” Being part of the show is an honor for Doyle, who says that being asked to be part of the show and be next to the other artists has been a pleasure. “I think all of us make art because we need to, and we make art in a bubble, and we make it because we have to make it... It’s really neat to take a step back out of your bubble and see what someone else would do with the same subject matter.” An art teacher in Kamsack, she says that this will inspire her class, as she learns from the other artists and brings what she learns to her students. The Saskatchewan landscape is reflected in Romasanta’s paintings, which are often built around a strong horizon line. He says it’s a way to express his emotions in the work.

FIELDS OF LIGHT brings together four area artists to showcase their work and different styles. Pictured are the artists, Laura Gendall, Kristen Doyle, Glenn Romasanta and James Clow, in front of a piece by Romasanta. “It’s just explaining and trying to create conversation visually, and expressing emotion. That being so chaotic at times, you just need something to ground it, and that’s why I incorporate the horizon or a heavy foundation.” A growing family means Romasanta has not had time for painting recently, so the show represents the last one for a while as he focuses on fatherhood. He says it’s a way to share different times in his life with everyone, and share with everyone what it means to create art, and reflect on his art before taking a break for family. Gendall is unique among the four because she’s depicting an urban landscape, built around buildings, which she says have been a fascination for her. “I almost feel like

the paintings, with the light and all the different textures and rhythms, to be like dancing buildings. When light hits them in different ways throughout the day it’s almost like they move, even though they’re buildings and they’re stationary.” She says it’s inspiring to see the other artists, and how they are working from the same starting point to create something completely different, yet still complimentary. Her future will involve bringing Yorkton into her paintings, Gendall explains and reflect the region in her work. The show runs until April 18 at the Godfrey Dean.

Harper needs to follow Ontario’s lead If you’ve watched any TV lately, you may have seen some Government of Canada ads. Perhaps you’ve seen the one warning of the dangers of smoking marijuana, promoting the government’s “Economic Action Plan,” or explaining recently announced tax cuts and credits. You may have also seen some of their advertisements in print, on billboards, on radio or online. These ads are all paid for with your tax dollars. The argument in favour of them goes something like this: the public needs to know about government programs and services available to them, so these ads serve a legitimate purpose by providing them with information. On the surface, this isn’t controversial; informing citizens about the rights and responsibilities, new programs, or warning them about health or safety risks are arguably reasonable things a government might decide to tell the public about. But it certainly doesn’t explain situations such as the one in 2013 when the government spent $2.5 million on ads for the Canada Jobs Grant – a program which didn’t even exist at the time. The opposition Liberals claim that since 2006 the Conservative government has spent nearly $750 million on advertising. Thanks to a lack of specifics, it’s very hard to pin down an exact figure – but regardless, there is absolutely no oversight with respect to what these ads promote. The reality is that for an incumbent government, the temptation to torque ads for partisan gain will always be great. If a government can use public dollars to “inform” Canadians by conveniently putting a positive spin on the governing party’s policies at the same time, they probably will. This is not only a waste of precious resources; it’s also an affront to fairness in a democracy. Further, it violates the democratic principle that public dollars shouldn’t be directed towards partisan ends. Rather than leave politicians in a position to succumb to this temptation, there’s a relatively simple way to ensure ads are nonpartisan: put an independent third party in charge of vetting proposed government ads. We already have a good Canadian example of a system that works. In 2004, Ontario’s government introduced the Government Advertising Act, which requires that ads be non-partisan as determined by the Auditor General, supported by a four-person independent body called the Advertising Review Board. In her 2013-14 report, the Auditor General noted that her office reviewed a total of 145 submissions with an average turnaround time of about eight days. They rejected just one ad during that time for being too partisan. Ontario’s government spends about $30 million per year on advertising. Whether or not that’s a reasonable sum is up for debate; but at the very least Ontarians can rest assured that money is being spent for purposes beyond the pure partisan gain of the governing party of the day. Canadians have no similar guarantee when it comes to federal government ad spending, and they should. It’s time for the Harper Conservatives to follow Ontario’s lead and implement similar third-party oversight of its advertising. Canadian Taxpayer Federation

School funding announcement all wrong With parents, teachers and the Opposition expressing serious concerns about run down and neglected schools, the government is patting itself on the back Friday for its 2014 education infrastructure spending – which included a $23.5 million cut. Friday, it issued a short and vague list of school repairs undertaken in the last two years in defense of growing criticism. “Kids and students don’t need a weak defense – they need their schools fixed,” said Opposition Deputy Leader Trent Wotherspoon. “Parents and teachers are rightfully asking, after a decade of resource wealth, why don’t we have better school buildings all over the province? Where did all that money go? “Good schools are a priority for families – but the Sask. Party government has been spending on its own pet projects, instead, and letting schools get very run down. “Putting out a media release to pat themselves on the back for the little bits of maintenance schools were able to afford, while dismissing the growing and very real problems in schools, is just wrong.” Wotherspoon pointed to major structural prob-

lems, cracks in walls and a library floor that’s nothing more than subfloor because the moldy carpet was ripped out years ago and never replaced. Saskatchewan School Boards Association data shows that 75 per cent of all schools roofs in the province will fail by 2018. The independent provincial auditor reported in 2013 that the government was spending far too little to repair and upkeep schools – and that was before the government made its cuts this year. The amount required to complete the muchneeded repairs in schools has grown to at least $1.5 billion. But the government says the list of schools in trouble is a cabinet secret, and refuses to share it with parents and teachers. “The list of repairs needed has grown to $1.5 billion – and that doesn’t include structural inspections on all of the older schools,” said Wotherspoon. “It’s disturbing that schools have become so rundown during such good economic times; and it’s equally disturbing that the government is hiding the list of repairs that are needed from parents and teachers. What doesn’t the Sask. Party government want parents to know?” NDP caucus 306-787-6349

France declares war on anorexia, so should we Paris is one of the major centers of fashion, a statement so obvious even I know it, and I don’t even have matching socks today. What happens in France will then have a ripple effect across the entire fashion industry, and eventually affect the entire world of clothing. This makes it very important that France is now planning to make it illegal to use anorexic models. The overly thin model has been a staple of the fashion industry for a while now. From what I can tell, it’s mostly due to laziness – it’s much easier to fit clothes when you have a minimal amount of body to cover, and much easier to make something flattering when you’ve got very little actual body to design around. Tiny models are easier, even if they’re far from representative, very unhealthy and likely not the most attractive body type anyway. They also happen to be the people chosen for magazine covers to represent what looks good, distorting the image of what the ideal body type actually is. It also makes it difficult for larger members of the population to find clothing, I know there are brands out there that I can’t possibly wear because even in large sizes they are cut for people who don’t resemble me. I say this as a man, and frankly we have much less societal pressure to conform to a made up ideal.

Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger In this case, France has decided that enough is enough, and they’re planning to take on anorexia and attempt to wipe it out. Models will now have to hit a healthy target for height to mass, including doctors reports that state the models are maintaining a healthy weight. They will also fine anyone seen as promoting anorexic behaviors, such as people who operate pro-anorexic websites – those people could even face a year in prison. The logic is that if women – the vast majority of people who are affected by anorexia – do not feel pressure to conform to an unhealthy body type, they will not develop the body issues in the first place, making for a healthier, happier population.

They are not the first country to do this, Spain and Israel have already enacted their own laws surrounding models. But it’s important in ways that those countries aren’t, because it is France. That’s where a lot of these clothes come from, and more importantly, that’s where the image surrounding fashion itself comes from. If France is on board, it makes a difference for everyone else, because they set the trends and they are also a market that needs to be addressed. If you can’t use an anorexic model there, what’s the point of using one anywhere? There have been plenty of attempts to push standards back to a more attainable direction, whether it’s a soap company campaigning for real beauty or a swimsuit catalog making a big deal about hiring someone “plus-size.” And it fails because they’re the exceptions, rather than the rule. None of the soap models are on the cover of a magazine like Vogue, the swimsuit model is still the exception rather than the rule – and if she was plus-size I don’t even want to know the terminology for someone my size. After decades, it feels as though we’ve failed to actually make any progress, so if legal intervention is required, so be it. It’s likely baby steps, but if France’s laws can influence Canadian girls to stop worrying about their weight, it’s a good thing.

Recent spills heat up debate

No budget means no real leadership

To the Editor: Four recent oil-train derailments - two in the United States and two in Canada accompanied by yet another drive-by rhetorical smear of the Keystone XL pipeline by U.S. President Barack Obama - have re-invigorated the debate over how Canadians and Americans transport oil. The most recent spills and explosions in Illinois, West Virginia and Ontario all involved long oil trains of about 100 cars. So far as we know, they all met the most recent railcar designs and regulatory requirements in the U.S. and Canada. The barrage of derailments continues to illuminate the folly of the anti-pipeline movement. Because of an artificially created shortage of pipeline capacity in the U.S. and Canada, more petroleum products are moving by rail. This issue was deeply analyzed in a 2013 study I co-authored on Intermodal Safety in the Transport of Oil. Using the most comprehensive available U.S. data, we observed that while the vast majority of oil transported by any mode arrives safely at its destination, there are still discernable differences in relative safety. On virtually all metrics of safety, whether environmental or occupational, it was clear that movement of oil and gas is safest via pipeline and less safe via rail. Specifically, on an

Specifically, on an apples-to-apples basis, transport one billion tons of oil over a mile by pipeline and there is a very low likelihood of leakage - less than one incident per billion ton-miles. The risk of a leak by rail is twice as high, at two likely incidents. over a mile. On volumes spilled, it’s true that pipeline ruptures release larger quantities of oil than individual truck or train spills, but recovery rates for oil spilled from pipelines can reach 50 per cent, and they are far less likely to pose a threat to large population centres. When it comes to worker safety, pipelines also look safer. Safety data from the U.S. suggests that one would have only 0.007 injuries per billion ton-miles, while rail injury rates are 30 times as high. That pipelines are safer than trucks or trains should come as no surprise. A pipeline is fixed infrastructure with little exposure to the elements, fewer opportunities for opera-

ground, are on fluid routes subject to constant change. That offers far more opportunities for breakdown, operator error, and injuries to workers as well as the general public. And, rail and roadways, by intent, pass through major population centres putting more people at risk when an accident happens. Environmentalists and anti-fossil-fuel allies have successfully stalled the development of safer pipeline capacity for years now. As a result, more oil is transported by railways, increasing health and environmental impacts rather than reducing them. Anti-pipeliners would undoubtedly say that the solution to

these problems is just to “stop using oil,” but that idea is essentially the mother of all denial: developed economies are essentially fossilfuel economies from top to bottom, with a helping of hydro and nuclear power on the side 87 per cent of all the energy used around the world is generated from fossil fuels, and 80 per cent of all transportation is powered by oil and its derivatives. Renewables such as wind and solar power are akin to the skin of an apple - pretty, but not terribly filling in and of itself. Opposition to pipelines flies in the face of safety data, which shows that pipelines are safer modes of transport than railways. This is not the pipeline engineering equivalent of rocket science. And despite the current downturn in world oil prices, energy agencies and companies expect future demand to rebound, and create the incentives to develop oil in both the U.S. and Canada. Environmentalists who engage in antipipeline crusades risk causing more harm than good. Their pipeline-stalling actions are diverting oil to rail; oil that would otherwise be transported more safely by pipeline. Kenneth P.

Canadians travel abroad for medical care To the Editor: Large numbers of Canadians continue to venture abroad to seek medical care, according to a new study released today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy thinktank. The study, Leaving Canada for Medical Care 2015 estimates 52,513 Canadians left the country to receive nonemergency medical treatment in 2014, an increase of 26 per cent compared to the previous year. “These figures are not insubstantial. They point to an increasing number of Canadians who feel their medical needs aren’t being met in Canada,” said Bacchus Barua, Fraser Institute senior economist and the study’s co-author. The study draws upon data from the Fraser Institute’s annual Waiting Your Turn study – a national survey of physicians across Canada in 12 major medical specialties. In the 2014 survey, physicians specializing in internal medicine procedures — such as colonoscopies, gastroscopies and angiographies — reported

the highest number of patients leaving Canada for treatment (6,559). Meanwhile, neurosurgeons reported the highest proportion of patients (2.6 per cent) who travelled abroad for medical care. While there is no definite data on why Canadians go elsewhere for medical attention, there are several possible reasons: Some patients may have been sent abroad because of a lack of available medical resources; some may have chosen to leave Canada in response to concerns about medical quality; while others might have left because of lengthy wait times. “In 2014, the average patient in Canada could expect to wait almost 10 weeks for medically necessary treatment after seeing a specialist. This wait time is more than three weeks longer than what physicians consider to be clinically reasonable,” Barua said. “Faced with long waits for treatment, it should come as little surprise that so many Canadians ultimately choose to be medical tourists.” Estimated number of patients receiving treatment outside of Canada, 2014 (by

province): 1. British Columbia: 9,799 2. Alberta: 5,988 3. Saskatchewan: 1,050 4. Manitoba: 1,048 5. Ontario: 26,252 6. Quebec: 6,284 7. New Brunswick: 742 8. Nova Scotia: 975 9.

To the Editor: At a time when Canadians need some competent economic leadership, federal Finance Minister Joe Oliver is mostly absent from the House of Commons these days. And when he does show up, he seems both puzzled and muzzled - allowing junior Ministers to answer finance questions with meaningless “talking points” written in the Prime Minister’s Office. That’s a serious problem for Canada. A sign of weakness. The Finance department has been rendered totally subservient to the partisan requirements of the PMO. There’s no sense of confidence in the Minister. His job is just to be the mouthpiece for whatever Mr. Harper wants said. It’s quite a pathetic spectacle. On one occasion when he was allowed to speak for himself last week, Mr. Oliver went on a strange tirade against the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce. The CIBC had just contradicted the Harper government on Canada’s job market, pointing out serious problems of poor growth and declining quality. Mr. Oliver depicted the CIBC as some rogue outlier, practising “sham” economics. The trouble for Mr. Oliver is that many other experts agree with the CIBC - including the TD Bank, the Bank of Canada, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, Morgan Stanley, York University, the Parliamentary Budget Officer and others. They can’t all be a sham! Mr. Oliver embarrassed himself. At the same time, his excuse for punting the federal budget into April or May or later - forcing Canadians to go through more than an entire fiscal year without a budget plan - began to blow up in his face. He said the delay was all because of the uncertainty about oil prices. But the provincial governments of both Saskatchewan and Alberta are more fiscally dependent on oil revenues than is the federal government. Yet Saskatchewan will be able to table its 2015 budget this Wednesday (March 18th) and Alberta will do so on March 26th. If they can get their acts together, why can’t Canada? This point was also underscored last week by all the major private sector economists who advise the federal Minister. They say the global market price for oil is now as stable and predictable as it’s going to get, so there is no credible reason for any further stalling. The real problem is that economic realities just don’t fit well with the political argument Mr. Harper wants to present in this election year. He wants to say that everything is rosy, that he’s done a great job, and now is the time for big tax cuts for the wealthiest of Canadians. But none of that is true. His own projections were forecasting a declining economic growth rate for Canada, even before the drop in oil markets. As the CIBC and others pointed out, the job market is not generating either the quantity or the quality of new employment that Canadians need. A big majority of middle-class Canadians, and all those working hard just to get to the middle-class, are feeling more and more insecure. They’re worried about the daily cost-of-living, their household debts, the high costs of higher learning for their kids, the inadequacy of their own retirement savings. And Mr. Harper is trying to tell them that they’ll just have to accept all that - because now is the time for a big tax cut that will benefit only 14% of Canadian households (86% can never qualify). It will cost more than $12-billion over the coming budgetary planning cycle, with the biggest gains going to those with income over $233,000. But no tax fairness for the middle-class. Nothing to drive greater economic growth or more and better jobs. Nothing to bolster community infrastructure, or greater access to post-secondary education, or science and innovation. Nothing to correct Mr. Harper’s chronic trade deficit. Nothing to ensure we have the environmental credibility necessary to secure access to global markets for our valuable resources. Considering all of that - maybe it’s understandable why the Finance Minister has nothing much to say. Ralph Goodale Member of Parliament Wascana

Millets work well with forage production

Using annual forages to extend the grazing season is a common practice and millets are one of the options available to use for silage, greenfeed, or swath grazing. Millets can be grown in all soil zones of the province but perform best on well drained, south facing soils. Because they are a warm season crop, millets should be seeded in soils that have warmed up to least 10 degrees Celsius. Most of the growth will occur during the hottest summer months. Golden German Millet, a foxtail millet, takes between 70 to 90 days to heading and is generally higher yielding compared to proso millet, a crown millet, which takes around 60 to 65 days to heading. Proso millet can be a good option where late seeding is required, such as after a wet spring.

Seeding rates are 15lbs to 20lbs for proso and Golden German millet respectively. Millets should be fertilized according to soil tests and comparable to a crop grown for grain. The economics of using millets as an annual crop in forage production will vary based on seed cost and number of grazing days gained. Millet yields can vary considerably based on the length of the growing season and associated weather conditions. Under good growing conditions, millets do have the potential to out-yield oats or barley but may also fall short on yield if cool and moist growing conditions prevail. Millets cut for silage are cut around early heading. Millets have a waxy leaf coat which makes them slow to dry down for greenfeed and

therefore should be crimped or sprayed with glyphosate to speed up the dry down process. Millets for swath grazing are cut about two to three weeks after heading. Because of their late maturity and their ability to hold nutritional quality in part due to their waxy leaf coat, most millets are well suited for swath grazing. A study conducted at the Western Beef Development Centre reported good forage quality resulting in adequate grazing animal performance and good palatability of millet which lay in the swath for nearly 60 days prior to grazing. Feed testing millets is a good management practice as the warm season crops may be more prone to nitrate accumulation especially when a first frost occurs during lush plant growth.

Photo speed cameras slowing drivers down

The latest photo speed enforcement results show further decreases at photo speed enforced locations in February, as compared to previous months. “We are headed in the right direction with these latest results, but there is always room for improvement,”

said Andrew Cartmell, President and CEO of SGI. “Speed-related collisions claimed the lives of 23 people in Saskatchewan in 2013. With this pilot, we aim to help prevent future tragedies.” When comparing the number of speeding violations (per day) in January to February,

results reveal: · decreases at all school zone locations · decreases at three of the five high-speed locations · on average, less than 1 per cent of vehicles are speeding at these locations The three-month warning period for the two-year photo speed

enforcement pilot ended earlier this month, when live ticketing began on March 8, 2015. Fines for speeding in photo speed enforced zones start at $110 in high-speed locations and $190 in school zones. The pilot stems from recommendations made by the all-party Special

Committee on Traffic Safety. The pilot is one of several significant traffic safety measures being undertaken to bring down the high number of traffic-related injuries and fatalities on Saskatchewan roads and highways. Monthly photo speed enforcement results will

be posted on SGI’s website at www.sgi.sk.ca midmonth of the following month; for example, results for March will be posted mid-April. For more information about the pilot, visit the photo speed enforcement page on SGI’s website.

Seed festival tries to grow communities Cont. from Page 1A Food security is one of the reasons why Ternier feels people need to learn about seed and save seed of their own, because she feels it’s important that people become less reliant on mass produced food products and a centralized food system. “If we don’t take control back in our food system, nobody is going to give it to us.

The only way to decentralize that highly centralized system is to have small efforts all over the place, growing food and seed saving.” Part of the goal is also to get people more connected to their food and the land, especially as people live in more urban situations. She says that as people save seeds and grow their food, they have a better understanding of nature overall, and

that’s why she wants people to try it if they can. “I really like to stress to people two points that seem opposite to each other. Seed saving is easier than you think it is, growing something and saving the seed from it is not rocket science. Anybody can do it, that means it’s accessible. But at the same time, you do have to be dedicated to taking care of that plant. If you want

to have a kid or a pet you’ve got to take care of it, a plant is not as much responsibility... but you do need to consider what it needs.” She says that the movement is growing, as more festivals such as the Prairie Sun Seed Festival spring up across the province, something she has noticed as there have been a growing demand for seeds and their presentations. She says she sees families as a

main driver for an increased interest in food security, as people are more concerned about what they feed their families. The festival is run by the Assiniboine Food Security Alliance, which has several initiatives in the area,

306-743-2242

including the community garden and different educational components in the area. “There are a lot of initiatives. Some of it is actually giving food, and some of it is education,” Tress says.

Agriculture in the classroom launched N-R staff Grade 4 students at Columbia School were among students in 161 classrooms to take part in the launch of a new school resource as part of Agriculture Literacy Week in Saskatchewan. The classrooms were visited Wednesday by presenters reading ‘The Adventures of Michael & Mia: Stewards of the Land’ a new book geared toward teaching students more about where their food comes from. “We eat every day,” reader Joelle Carlson, an agrologist from Melville told the students. Carlson pointed to a large 365 she had placed on the chalkboard, and told the students we eat every day of the year “because we need food to fuel our bodies.” Carlson then asked, “Every day we eat what should we think about?” The answer was farmers. Referring to the book, and how it ties into food production, Carlson said, “see how everybody is connect to agriculture in this room,” although not one student lived on a farm. “So 365 days-a-year, lets thank the farmers,” she said. After reading to the

first class of the day, Carlson was asked why she volunteered as a reader. “Because I have five children,” she said. “I think it’s important today to teach children about agriculture.” Carlson said to teach the importance of farming to students you have to make them see how it is important to them/ “Everybody is connected to agriculture,” she reiterated.” Kids are connected to agriculture, you just have to show them that.” Classroom teach Kendal Hack said the book and the presentation kept her students interested. “It was very engaging,” she said. While the book, by author Edward Willet and illustrated by Val Lawton, touched on some technical aspects of agriculture, from the use of global positioning systems for precision farming, to how a riparian area protects natural water ways, Hack said the book brings such concepts back to things young students can grasp. She added Grade 4 is an age when young people are looking to learn new things, so they welcome new concepts well. “They brought it back down to their level,” she said.

Agricultural education is also part of the Grade 4 curriculum, noted Hack, who said young people do need to learn the source of their food, so incorporating it into the classroom makes sense. In the case of her class, students attended the Grain Millers Harvest Showdown in Yorkton in November for some hands on experience with farming, and now the classroom reading, which will serve as a springboard into more classroom education until the end of the school year. Agriculture Literacy Week was March 1 to 7 in the province. “Agriculture Literacy Week is an opportunity for us to teach our youth about agriculture and food production,” Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart said in a release at the time of the proclamation. “Many of today’s students grow up disconnected from farms and agriculture. This week provides them with an opportunity to learn about our industry in a fun, interactive way.” “The Ministry of Education is proud to be supporting Agriculture Literacy Week, as it’s another innovative way to engage our students in their learning,” Education Minister Don

GRADE 4 STUDENTS at Columbia School recently had a presentation from Agriculture in the classroom Morgan said in the joint release. “This is an excellent way to encourage the literacy skills of our students while also promoting one of Saskatchewan’s most important industries.” During Agriculture Literacy Week, producers and other members of the agriculture industry gathered in classrooms across the province to read agriculture stories and discuss their experiences in the industry. Their visits

are supplemented by materials provided by Agriculture in the Classroom (AITC), such as books and videos. “Agriculture plays a vital role in our lives, and it’s important that our youth understand that,” AITC Executive Director Sara Shymko said in the release. “Students often learn best when they are able to connect with their subject matter.

Highway twinning gets a boost The twinning of one of Saskatchewan’s most important highways is getting a boost with a major funding commitment from the federal government. Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Premier Brad Wall recently announced that the federal government will fund half the eligible costs to twin 25 km of Highway 7 from Saskatoon to Delisle, to a maximum of $32 million. “Highway 7 is an

important route for Saskatchewan that connects our largest city to growing communities like Delisle, Rosetown and Kindersley, as well as to export markets,” Wall said. “Twinning will address the safety and congestion concerns that are a result of Saskatchewan’s remarkable economic and population growth.” Twinning Highway 7 is expected to begin this spring with grading

work between Saskatoon to just east of Vanscoy. Additional work will be scheduled as planning work is completed. Work on the entire 25 km could be completed as soon as fall of 2018. Planning work for route options in the immediate vicinity of Vanscoy continues, including consultation with the community. “Traffic on this part of Highway 7 has increased by 50 per cent in the last decade,”

Highways and Infrastructure Minister Nancy Heppner said. “This project is an example of our government’s commitment to ensuring growth improves everyone’s quality of life.” Other major highway projects that improve safety include: recently completed twinning of Highway 11 from Saskatoon to Prince Albert and passing lanes on Highway 10 between Balgonie and Fort Qu’Appelle;

You can pay your taxes online anywhere More and more Canadians are paying their taxes online. When you pay online, you can make your payment anytime, from anywhere! Last year, we received over six million payments from individual filers online. Payment methods There are several ways to make a payment to the CRA. Online payment options Online banking: Sign in to your finan-

cial institution’s online banking service. Under ‘add a payee’, look for CRA (revenue)(2014)-tax owing, CRA (revenue)-past tax owed, CRA (revenue)tax instalment or a similar payee and select the one that applies to you. Be sure to enter your account number (either your social insurance number or business number) carefully to avoid a lost or misapplied payment.

Debit card: Use My Payment, the CRA’s online payment service. It allows individuals and businesses to make payments using Interac® Online. You may qualify to use this method if you have an online banking account with one of the following institutions: BMO Bank of Montreal (personal accounts only); TD Canada Trust; Scotiabank; RBC Royal Bank;

or

Envision Financial;

Libro Credit Union. Credit card: The CRA does not offer the option of paying taxes using a credit card on its website. However, you may be able to use a third-party service provider that offers additional payment methods, including credit cards. Thirdparty providers charge a fee for their service. The CRA may charge you penalties and inter-

est if your payment is late; the CRA receives your payment on the date the service provider sends the funds to the CRA – contact the service provider to find out about processing delays. The only provider that currently offers the credit card option is listed below for your convenience. Plastiq (T2 Corporation and T1 Individual) Pre-authorized debit: Pre-authorized debit

You can set up a pre-authorized debit agreement at your convenience using the CRA’s My Account service. For more information, go to Preauthorized debit. For other payment methods, go to www. cra.gc.ca/payments.

It’s time to move your ice fishing shack

Each spring, a number of ice fishing shelters are abandoned on the ice of Saskatchewan lakes. This creates identification and cleanup challenges for the province and can pose environmental concerns. Any litter, including fish entrails and offal, must also be removed when ice shelters are taken off the ice. “These shelters need to be removed because they can pose a danger to boaters, water-skiers and others enjoying our lakes if they remain floating in the water,” Ministry of Environment Compliance and Field Services Executive Director Kevin Callele

said. “The pieces wash up on shore and can cause environmental hazards. If shelters are not removed, owners could be prosecuted, and the structure and contents may be confiscated and removed by the ministry.” In 2014, a Saskatoon man was fined $2,800 for leaving an unmarked ice fishing shelter on the ice-covered waters of Blackstrap Lake, and for littering. Ice fishing shelters must have the owner’s complete name, address and phone number on the outside in legible letters that are at least 2.5 cm high. Anyone travelling on

the ice should take extreme caution. Slush indicates that ice is eroding from above and below at an advanced rate and changing temperatures can cause thermal cracks and pressure ridges, which are indicators of unsafe conditions. More than 189,000 Saskatchewan angling licences were sold to residents and non-residents in 2014-15. Information about fishing in the province can be found in the Saskatchewan Anglers’ Guide, and online at www.environment.gov.sk.ca/fishing. To report a fisheries, wildlife, environmental or forestry violation,

contact your nearest Ministry of Environment Office or call the province’s TIP line at 1-800667-7561 or #5555 from any SaskTel cell phone,

or report a violation online at www.saskatchewan.ca/conservation. You may be eligible for cash rewards from the SaskTip Reward

Program. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward if their information leads to a conviction.

School repair funding The Government of Saskatchewan has invested $24 million in 2014-15 for preventative and emergency maintenance of Saskatchewan schools. The funding includes $21 million for the P r e v e n t a t i v e Maintenance and Renewal Program (PMR) and $3.0 million for the Emergent Funding Program. “Maintaining our schools to provide safe, welcoming classrooms where our students can thrive is a priority for our government and important for the success of our students,” Education Minister Don Morgan said. “We continue to work with school divisions on their major capital and maintenance needs to preserve and improve the quality of the learning environments across the province.” The government’s $21 million commitment to the PMR pro-

gram allows school divisions to be proactive and timely in responding to their facility needs. Projects which fall under the program include structural, mechanical and electrical. In the past two years school divisions used PMR funding to address: roof work in 23 school divisions; mechanical work in 17 school divisions; exterior work to buildings in 13 school divisions; site work in 10 school divisions; electrical work in nine school divisions; and fire and safety work in five school divisions. In addition to PMR funding, $3.0 million was invested to respond to unforeseen and unexpected issues across the province through the Emergent Funding Program. In the 2014-15 school

year this funding has been accessed by seven school divisions to respond to emergency school facility issues including: $396,240 for Prairie Spirit School Division to address structural issues at Langham Elementary School; $288,619 for Chinook School Division to address structural issues at Leader Composite School; and $272,170 for Living Sky School Division to address roof issues at Connaught Elementary School. The Government of Saskatchewan has committed approximately $700 million since 2007 to move forward 47 major school capital projects and hundreds of additional smaller school capital projects across the province. This represents a record high investment in school infrastructure.

College scholarship applications open Parkland College is now accepting applications for more than $145,000 in scholarships. These Entrance Scholarships will be awarded to new students in the fall of 2015. The 2015 Entrance Scholarship application period runs until May 20. Recipients will be selected by early June, and successful applicants will receive their awards in late September. “The Entrance Scholarships are reserved for students beginning programs at Parkland College in the fall,” said scholarship committee chair Brendan Wagner. “Usually these students are graduates right out of high school, but we

see plenty of mature students who are looking to go back to school after working for a while, or they’re wanting to make a complete career change.” Parkland College presents scholarships two times each year – Entrance Scholarships to new students in the fall, and Internal Scholarships to current students in the spring. In the 2014-15 academic year, Parkland College will have awarded over $194,000 in scholarships – a new singleyear high for the College. That figure is expected to near $250,000 in 2015-16. “With the Trades and Technology Centre opening in Yorkton this September, students have more local post-

secondary education choices than ever before. We’ve grown the scholarship program to keep pace so that there are also more awards available,” Wagner said. Thanks to the Ministry of Advanced Education’s Saskatchewan Innovation & Opportunity Scholarship program, Parkland College is able match donations for post-secondary scholarships. This effectively doubles contributions from the region and makes a larger impact on the College’s scholarship initiative. Also included among the 2015 Entrance Scholarships is the third installment in a fiveyear studentship agreement with Yorkton Tribal Council (YTC).

Nominations set for Chamber awards Twenty five nominations have been received by the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce for the two Employee of the Year Awards that will be presented later this month. Carol Yaholnitksy, Co-Chair of the Chamber’s Events committee is pleased with that number. “The number of nominations and the quality of the nominees equals those the last time the Awards were presented in 2013,” she said. “The community really made an effort to recognize the great employees we have in Yorkton.” Stephanie Buckle, Co-Chair of the Events committee agrees. “The nominees all contribute to their places of employment,” she said. “We received seventeen nominations for the Front Line Employee of the Year Award and eight were received for the Support Employee of the Year Award.” Each Award recognizes outstanding contributions by employees to their places of

employment and to the community. The Front Line Employee of the Year Award, sponsored by CORE Real Estate, is for those employees who provide the customer service that ensures customers continue to walk through the doors of the business. The Support Employee Award, sponsored by Parkland College, is for those hard working, knowledgeable employees who ensure the back end of the business runs smoothly. Photos and biographies of the nominees will be posted on the Chamber website March 16 - 19. Each Chamber member will then have the opportunity to cast one vote for the nominee considered most deserving for each of the Awards. The Employee of the Year Awards will be presented at the 2015 Employee Recognition Event, Wednesday March 25 at St. Mary’s Ukrainian Cultural

Centre. Saskatoon musical duo, the Hot Tamales, will entertain the employees and their employers prior to the Award presentations. Tickets to the ERE are available at the Chamber office.

With a generous donation from YTC in 2013 and the matching funds from the Government of Saskatchewan, Parkland College is able to offer $80,000 in scholarships this year to students who are registered members of YTC’s six

First Nations (Cote, Key, Keeseekoose, Ocean Man, Sakimay, and Kahkewistahaw). Separate application packages for these awards are available through Yorkton Tribal Council. Full details about the

College’s scholarships can be found at http:// scholarships.parklandcollege.sk.ca. Students beginning a program at Parkland College this fall can apply for a share of the Entrance Scholarships at http:// bit.ly/PCentrance.

Transportation grant awarded

The Saskatchewan Transportation Company (STC) will receive an operating grant of $10.3 million in 2015 to operate its network. “In line with the province’s fiscal restraint measures, STC has taken strong steps to eliminate growth in the operating grant for this year,” Minister responsible for STC Jennifer Campeau said. STC will not take a capital grant in 2015. STC has recently taken delivery of five used coaches. These coaches have the standard amenities demanded by passengers including expanded leg room, 110V outlets and Wi-Fi

and allow STC to retire older coaches reaching their end of service. “In 2015, STC will continue to provide safe and reliable services to Saskatchewan residents, while mitigating the effects of rising costs to ensure these services are delivered efficiently,” Campeau said. About STC The Saskatchewan Transportation Company is a provincial coach company that provides safe, affordable and accessible bus passenger and parcel express services to communities throughout Saskatchewan.

Page 12A - THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, March 19, 2015

Don’t let friends stab you in the back Ed, my neighbor next door, does not take criticism well. Like most of us, he is much better at giving blame than receiving it. My neighbor has been bowling with a friend for years but recently their friendship ruptured like a loud sounding gutter ball. When Ed was telling me about it, I asked if it happened around the Ides of March. Things have been known to go all wrong on the fifteenth of March. I was referring to Julius Caesar being stabbed to death in a meeting of the Senate on March 15, 44 B.C. It was such a great act of betrayal lead by his trusted friends Brutus and Cassius, that even to

this day people say, “Beware the Ides of March.” March 15th is seen as a reminder that even your most trusted friends may betray you and your most permanent relationships may shatter to pieces without warning. My referral to the stabbing of Julius Caesar resulted in Ed getting angry at me. He said, “Who cares what happened in 44 B.C.? Caesar probably deserved a knife in the back. I’m the victim, and my friend was the problem.” Ed ended by saying that it wasn’t worth the effort of complaining to me. All he wanted me to do was confirm that his friend was

Neighborly Advice According to Ed by Raymond Maher www.accordingtoed.com out of line. I disappointed Ed as usual, but it didn’t matter much to him. Since a trusted friend had stabbed him with words, he had to decide if he would forgive his friend or forget him. Getting along with family, friends, work associates and neighbors has it highs and lows. When relationships shat-

ter is there enough glue to put them back together again? Hurt, disappointment, resentment, anger, and revenge are powerful feelings and motivations within us. In human relationships, the need to be right, to dominate, to control, to hate and to murder are big winners. Many will admit that it is easier to see what is wrong with others rather

than what is right with them. Betrayal stabs its way through family members, friends, work associates, and neighbors. It isn’t totally absent from Christian congregations. Even the disciples of Jesus were not above resentments among themselves. In the gospel of Mark, James and John the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus and wanted Jesus to do whatever they asked him. Jesus said to them tell me what you want me to do for you. They wanted one of them to sit on his right and one on his left when Jesus came into his glory. They wanted special recognition as the two apostles closest to Jesus. Power, position, and special rec-

ognition motivate people to betray their friends. People want more recognition than others, even their family members, friends, fellow workers and neighbors. Wanting more honor than others also happens in Christian fellowships. Jesus told James and John that God the Father, not himself, will give the seating order in glory. Jesus also pointed out that God’s way is not about being greater than others, but being a servant. Jesus taught greatness before God is serving others not ruling over them. Jesus served God and sinners and gave his life as a ransom for many when he was here on earth.

Coin designs wanted To celebrate Canada’s upcoming 150th anniversary, the Royal Canadian Mint is inviting Canadians from coast-to-coast-tocoast to design the 5-cent, 10-cent, 25-cent, one-dollar and two-dollar coins that will circulate in 2017. “As a curator of our nation’s history, culture and values, the Mint is in a unique position to offer Canadians a rare, oncein-a-generation opportunity to change the face of our circulation coinage as a lasting tribute to Canada’s 150th anniversary of Confederation,” said Sandra L. Hanington, President and CEO of the Royal Canadian Mint. “In addition to creativity, the Mint is encouraging

SUNDOG CHALLENGE – Sunday March 8 proved the ideal day for a marathon event. Clear sunny skies and mild temps made conditions at Yorkton’s Deer Park Golf course perfect for the 30 participants of the club first annual Sundog Challenge. The challenge of skiing a 1/2 or full marathon was accepted by local club members. Ray Bailey and Karen Sawkiw completed their full 42 km marathon and Wes Laube, Warren Popick, Bob Purton Anne Stupak and Toby and Nadine Frisk took on the 1/2 marathon challenge of 21km. Along with several skiers taking on 2.5 to 7 km loops, with a total of 360 km skied by all participants. Several volunteers maned the rest stop to keep the skiers hydrated and nourished as they skied their laps. The YCCSC was very happy with this years attendance and hopes to see the challenge become an annual event that draws skiers from all over the province. “We have the ideal facility at Deer Park and the terrain is a real work out! The club groomers set a great track and skiers can expect to have a good ski. The challenge is not a race but a personal best, and a chance to be a marathoner” The club is already making plans for next years Sundog Challenge first Sunday in March. Submitted

Canadians to demonstrate their overwhelming pride for the best country in the world.” As part of the contest, Canadian residents are being asked what Canada means to them by entering coin designs in the following theme categories until April 30, 2015: Our Wonders (Canada’s beauty, from nature to monuments) Our Character (Values or principles which define Canadian identity) Our Achievements (Discoveries, exploration or victories) Our Passions (From culture to sports, to pastimes) Canada’s future (this category is reserved for Canadians 12-years of age

and under for the 25-cent coin) The finalists in each category will be determined by the Royal Canadian Mint and a panel of notable Canadians. The winning design per category will be selected by Canadians in an online vote which will take place in September 2015. Each circulation coin denomination will feature one of the winning designs in 2017. There are five grand prizes to be won (one per theme category).

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, March 19, 2015 - Page 13A

Safer technology for Private Member’s Bill Many studies have concluded that our wireless devices are making us sick, causing cancer and genetic damage, infertility, biochemical changes, brain damage, and much more. That’s why my colleague, Conservative MP Terence Young, recently introduced Private Member’s Bill C-648, An Act Respecting the Prevention of Potential Health Risks from Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Radiation (Warning Labels for Radio Apparatus Act). The Bill was seconded by NDP Health Critic, Libby Davies. The effects of electromagnetic radiation, EMR, emitted by cellphones, baby monitors, routers and smart

meters and other devices, has long been vigorously debated. But if you check the manual for your cell phone – or baby monitor, or any other radiation-emitting wireless device, you’ll find a paragraph, generally in very tiny print, that reads like this: “For body-worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset is positioned a minimum of 15mm away from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when used with the original bodyworn accessory intended for this phone. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF guidelines.” Mr. Young, along

Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz with a growing number of Parliamentarians from all parties and many other knowledgeable and concerned citizens feel that the small print isn’t good enough. Bill C-648 calls for a clear and obvious label somewhere on the device itself or its packaging. Over 140 studies show harmful effects of radiation at even low levels of exposure. Mr. Young wants to protect

consumers by letting them know that the closer we are to a wireless device, the more we place our health at risk. (This is Mr. Young’s second consumer protection bill – his earlier bill, which became legislation only last year, required clearer warnings on pharmaceutical products.) If Bill C-648 passes, it could mean that all wireless devices sold in

Canada would be required to carry warning labels. Failure to include the labels or selling a device without a label could mean fines of up to a hundred thousand dollars per day. Frank Clegg, former president of Microsoft Canada), now head of Canadians For Safe Technology (C4ST), based in Oakville, ON, has long sounded warning signals about the health effects of wireless devices. He supports Young’s initiative. C4ST has published 8 safety tips for wireless usage. 1. Keep cell phones away from your head (use the speaker or nonBluetooth earbuds) and out of your pocket and/ or bra. 2. Don’t sleep with an

active device near you. 3. Keep cell phones and tablets away from small children. 4. Don’t put a wireless baby monitor by a child’s bed – use a wired one instead. 5. Remove the WiFi in your home. Put the router on a timer to turn off at night. Remove from high-use and sleeping areas. 6. Pregnant women should keep wireless devices away from their abdomen. 7. If possible keep your analog meter or opt out of any smart meter. 8. Remove cordless phones from your home. Go to www.terenceyoung.com or www.C4ST. org/PMB for more information.

Anniversary celebration This year marks a milestone in Sunrise Health Region that will be hard to outdo. It is the 50th anniversary of the medical practice of family physician, Dr. Michael Bishop, in the community of Kamsack. Dr. Bishop immigrated to Canada from England in 1965 to set up medical practice in Kamsack, Sask atchewan. In 2003, Dr. Bishop moved into the physician leadership role of Vice President of Medical Services and Senior Medical Officer of Sunrise Health Region. President and CEO of Sunrise Health Region, Suann Laurent, credits Dr. Bishop with fostering positive connection of medical ser-

vices and administration, and for setting the stage and foundation of the regional medical structure. “Dr. Bishop is to be admired for many reasons and most notably, for his tireless dedication to his patients, his community, his profession, and our health region,” adds Laurent. To celebrate, Sunrise Health Region and the Town of Kamsack will host a come-and-go coffee gathering on March 31, 2015 from 2:004:00pm in the cafeteria of the Kamsack & District Hospital. Everyone is welcome to attend with the opportunity to personally thank Dr. Bishop for his exceptional commitment to the community and health region.

Exports reach an all time high innovation of our people,” Minister responsible for Trade Jeremy Harrison said. “Our government has helped sustain this growth and activity by working to create the best business environment possible and then letting our talented and dedicated entrepreneurs lead the way.” Major increases for Saskatchewan in January were in the categories of metal and non-metallic mineral products (up 741.9 per cent), basic and industrial chemical, plastic and rubber products (up 75.6 per cent), and metal ores and non-metallic minerals (up 49.9 per cent).

QUILTING WITH CARE – The ladies at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church have been making quilts for decades, and have put together 176 quilts to help people in developing counties as part of Canadian Lutheran World Relief. Quilts from the group also help people at home, with Shelwin House, Transitional Homes for Youth, the local hospital and the Red Cross all benefiting from their work, and recently the people affected by the fire at Yorkton Manor received quilts from the group. Pictured are Elise Elsasser, Gina Schmidt, Laureen Johnson and Margaret Anne Yost. Elaine Lutcher, Olga Betker, Sharon Kitzel, Olga Reider, Trudy Jeske, Jeannette Wheeler, Roseileen Nielsen, Joanne Seib and Loretta Herman also contributed to the donation. Elsasser says that they make the quilts because they care about people, and they want to share their love with people who need it. Quilts are also kept on hand in case of emergency in the city. On March 22nd, the quilts will be blessed at mass, followed by a pot luck supper and silent auction, and all money raised will be used to ship the quilts to the third world. The group hopes to continue with the ministry into the future and says that if people have clean fabric and sheets for donation they are always welcome, as well as monetary donations.

YBID continues to receive comments and complaints about enforcement of the 2 hour parking bylaw for businesses. We have learned in a majority of cases the offending vehicles are actually employees of downtown businesses. It stands to reason that if employees are parking on the streets rather than designated parking lots, there is no room for customers. Employees who work downtown should be parking in a designated parking lot away from the main streets. That allows customers and clients, who may want to park closer to the same location that you work in, to park there. In some cases employers are paying the annual parking lot pass fee of $50 for their employees. Good for you! While the City of Yorkton does enforce the parking bylaws in the past two years they have reduced enforcement by 50 per cent. That means instead of patrolling the streets doing parking enforcement 160 hours a month they are only patrolled at random 80 hours. Gloria Hayden So the effort has to come from each business Community Centre to identify and report vehicles they feel may be violating the two hour parking bylaw. ✦ Eavestrough If it’s your employee, get them into a ✦ Vinyl Siding ✦ Window/Door Capping designated city or private parking lot.
