Races go on
Golfing for health
By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer The government may not be funding it, but the show will go on. The Yorkton Exhibition Association (YEA) has announced in spite of a lack of SLGA (Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority) funding this year, there will be 12 harness races in Yorkton with the first one taking place in June. “Many of you know that in the spring of 2012 SLGA announced funding would no longer be available for 2013... During the summer of 2012 Yorkton hosted 16 races and we received a grant of $320,000...,” details Shaun Morin, General Manager of the YEA. “Since the beginning of January we’ve been meeting with SLGA and Prairieland Park in Saskatoon to explore ‘mutually beneficial’ funding opportunities for horse racing on a going forward basis... the position of the YEA was, and is, that the SLGA should reconsider their decision and reinstate the $1.5 million provincial grant... We were advised that this option is not on the table for discussion.” Continued on Page 3.
BIRD TALK – We’re not quite there but sights like the one above aren’t that far around the corner and as such, the Yellowhead Flyaway Birding Association (YFTBA) is taking the time to celebrate the arrival of spring and all that comes with it. This is the seventh year the YFBTA has organized a “full- fledged” Birding Symposium. Birders are, after all, social creatures who like to flock together to talk and learn more about the avian world. The event will be held in Churchbridge on April 13. Learn more in the Saturday, March 31 issue of the News Review Extra or by visiting: www.yftba.com. – Photo by Rob Wilson.
It’s a great day out while raising funds for a very worthwhile cause. The health Foundation has announced the 14th Annual Charity Golf Classic for Health will be held on Thursday, June 13 at the Good Spirit Lake Golf and Family Resort, with an 11 a.m. shotgun start. “We have two goals for this tournament. The first is to put on a premiere golf event, one of the best in Saskatchewan. The second is to raise funds to help our medical professionals provide the best possible healthcare to our families, friends and neighbours here in east central Saskatchewan” says Jerry Jemieff, chair of the 2013 Charity Golf Classic organizing committee. “This is the 14th year for this tournament. It is a very good tournament, the players and the sponsors like the way it is run so we aren’t planning any big changes – just a few little extra’s to add a little more fun into the day,” adds Jemieff.

Budget represents balanced growth: Ottenbreit
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
The theme for the Government of Saskatchewan’s 2013-2014 budget was “Balanced Growth,” and Yorkton MLA Greg Ottenbreit says that it delivers on that promise. “We know the province is growing, and there are a lot of pressures and challenges that come with that. We have to be very prudent in doing the best we can as a government to address those challenges, but also keeping in mind the core reason a government is there, and that is to provide services
and security to the people of the province,” Ottenbreit states. He says that it’s the sixth consecutive balanced budget delivered by the party, and that the party’s commitment to debt reduction has continued, with a total of $3 billion less debt since 2007. He also says this means the province has seen a saving of $600 million in interest, which he says has gone back into social programs. In terms of quality of life investments, he says that many existing programs have seen a boost this year. The Senior’s Income Plan is seeing an increase, as is the
Saskatchewan Assured Income for Disabilities (SAID) program. As well, $10 million is being dedicated to the surgical wait times initiative, continuing to act on a long-standing promise to reduce wait times. He says the goal is no surgeries taking more than three months, and the funding is keeping the government on track to meet that goal. There will be no tuition freezes for post secondary education, and Ottenbreit says this is because they don’t work, as there will eventually be large increases to catch up with expenses once the freeze is over.
Instead, the party intends on ensuring that tuition doesn’t need a significant increase, and Ottenbreit says that a 2.1 per cent increase in funding for postsecondary is part of that plan, especially as many institutions were expecting a cut. He also says they intend on focusing their efforts more on families directly, with plans such as the graduate retention program, which allows students to claim $20,000 in tuition over seven years after graduation and Saskatchewan Advantage scholarship, which gives $500 annually for four years to students continuing their

education in the province. “That $500 a year outpaces by quite a bit the increases we’ve seen in tuition.” There are going to be continuing commitments to infrastructure across the province. One of the ways the government is handling infrastructure improvements is through the SaskBuilds program, which is designed around Public-Private partnerships, or P3s. Ottenbreit says this has the potential to bring forward innovative ideas for dealing with infrastructure problems in the province. Continued on Page 2.

Homes project opens first doors By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Yail Harbour’s Pathway Homes project has hit a major milestone, with the first three units completed. The local non-profit provides personal care and housing for Yorkton’s mentally and physically disabled, and residents will be moving in to these homes on April 1. Sonya Reviczky, Executive Director of Yail Harbour, says that the project got started about three years ago, when the City of Yorkton donated land on which to build the triplex homes. The homes are designed for individuals in Yail Harbour’s supported living program. The homes are based on a universal design, explains Reviczky. For instance, the shelving in the cabinets are designed to be pulled down for easier access, there are pot-fillers to allow filling of pots at the stove, there is a full sprinkler system. The homes are also designed with wide doorways and hallways to allow for wheelchair accessibility, and the bathrooms have various handles and aids to accommodate those with a physical disability. There was a major need for the new triplex, Reviczky says,
both because there aren’t many units in the city with this universal design, and because their residents have difficulty qualifying for government programs, as they do not have families. With the new home, they are not only moving into a place better suited for their needs, but also a home that makes more sense financially, especially as they often don’t have a large income. “We’re able to provide a new unit for actually a lot cheaper for what our residents were paying renting apartments in the community,� Reviczky says. Resident Crystal Buczulak says that she’s excited to move into her new home, and which she says is a big step up from where she was living before. The new building had a $100,000 down payment on the mortgage, which Reviczky emphasizes is entirely from the support of the community. “There’s no government funding for this unit, it’s strictly on donations from businesses and people in the community.� This first building is just the beginning, Reviczky says, and they hope to see the next home begin construction in the next few months.
YAIL HARBOUR’S PATHWAY HOMES project has hit a major milestone, with the first three units completed. The local non-profit provides personal care and housing for Yorkton’s mentally and physically disabled, and residents will be moving in to these homes on April 1. Pictured above at a recent ribbon cutting event are: Shona Switzer board member, Crystal Buczulak, Mayor Bob Maloney, John denBrok Board member, Martin Brown and Greg Long.
Provincial budget unveiled, Ottenbreit speaks Con’t from Page 1. “For example, I’ve heard the finance minister speak of block funding of schools, where we design schools that are very similar, so you save money on design and construction, as they are built very similarly by maybe one organization. Just the efficiency and volume there, we could see through SaskBuilds being able to build a number of schools in a short time, whereas it would take longer time to build fewer schools through a different project.� The government is also changing the funding model for school divisions, based on the number of students in the province. He says that the local divisions are going to see a small increase over the government’s financial year.
The education property tax will also see a significant decrease in the mill rate, in order to hold the line on increases. He says that with the tax reassessments on property coming down, it was important to try to prevent a major spike in the education portion of the tax, and this measure means overall the line will be held, though it will vary depending on the property. Ottenbreit is aware of the NDP’s criticism of it being a “credit card budget,� but he feels that they are being hypocritical in their assessment. He says that their plan in the last election the province would have been fiscally irresponsible, and that their suggestions are not feasible. He says that while there are many plans outlined in the budget that have a gradual roll out
of funds, that’s just the reality of funding things in the world right now, due to the sheer cost of new infrastructure. For example, the Parkland College’s expansion has the government’s commitment, but money will be budgeted as it becomes necessary rather than doing it all in one shot in one year. He says that it is difficult to meet all the needs of the province as it grows, but that it’s a good challenge to have. “With that growth comes challenges, but I’d rather deal with the challenges of growth, doing the best we can with what we have available, without driving ourselves into debt with deficit budgets. I’d rather deal with that than the hardships of decline which we saw over years,� Ottenbreit concludes.

Trades and Technology Center to become a reality By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
DR. FAYE MYERS says she is excited to see the provincial government commit to the Parkland College Trades and Technology Center. This announcement means that planning can be completed, and construction can begin, with an anticipated opening in 2015.
The Parkland College has been working towards the development of a Trades and Technology Center for a number of years, and now the project is finally moving forward. With the announcement of funding in this year’s provincial budget, planning can be completed and construction begin. The initial investment by the Government of Saskatchewan is $1 million, earmarked for planning and design. Dr. Faye Myers, President of Parkland College says that discussions with Don Morgan, Minister of Advanced Education, have indicated that the government is fully behind the project and wants shovels in the ground as soon as possible. “It means the full construction of the project. The project will be $15-16 million total, and we will be raising a third of that and have close to our target, the government will be giving us $10 million over the next couple of
years as we continue construction,” Myers says. There is still needs to be planning completed, which will be the main focus in the immediate future. Myers says they need to develop the site, get engineered drawings, and finalize the interior concept design. The new center will be able to meet demands from both students and industry that the college is currently unable to meet. Myers says that the level of interest is high already throughout the region. “Currently our shop and trades area is very limited in the college. So this will allow up to expand into the advanced skills that are required by industry and businesses across the region and the province,” Myers says. Yorkton MLA Greg Ottenbreit says that it was time to commit to the project because of the needs in the area. He notes that there is a skilled labor shortage in the province, and a facility like this is essential for getting the training to people in the
region. He also notes that it will be good for First Nations engagement in the economy, since it allows them to get educated close to their home community, which is a traditional priority for First Nations people. “The opportunities are endless, it’s just a matter of getting people up to speed to be able to fill those needs,” Ottenbreit says. Another reason for the commitment is the community support for the project. Ottenbreit says that when you see the city making a significant contribution of land, and businesses in the region pledging their support to a project, it’s difficult to ignore. He says that the announcement is thanks to the hard work of many different people, from the Parkland College itself, the City of Yorkton, the business community which has supported the capital campaign, as well as the work done by the provincial government. Myers says that they want to see doors open in 2015.
It’s a credit card budget: NDP critic Trent Wotherspoon By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer NDP finance critic Trent Wotherspoon has called the provincial budget a “Credit card budget,” saying that it pushes costs onto future generations. One of the primary places where Wotherspoon sees the budget falling short is in education, and he says that the current budget is not going to meet the needs in the classrooms of the province. He says that class
sizes are increasing but that there has also been 350 educational assistant jobs cut in the province, and that this budget hasn’t done anything to rectify the problems faced by the province’s educational system. “Education in the classroom is at great strain. We have many classrooms that are bursting at the seams, in some cases we have students actually taught in hallways and staff rooms... This creates learning environ-
YEA horse racing Con’t from Page 1.
Morin says the YEA is now in discussions with Prairieland Park and that an “agreement in principle” has been reached. “We’re also investigating other possible funding options...” As discussion continue and the board strives to get the government to alter its decision, Morin say there was a tough decision to be made. “Do we throw in the towel and give up on horse racing? Or do we move forward, recognizing that we will certainly be looking at a large financial loss...” The decision was reached to press on. Morin says if the YEA was to let racing go, he believes it would be very difficult to get back. There will be 12 races, with opening day planned for Friday, June 7, post time 5:45 p.m. Races will be held each Friday during June, July and August with a special race card on Father’s Day, Sunday, June 16. While the YEA acknowledges the fact there will be considerable work ahead, the board is confident the local business community and individuals will help endorse an event that brings both tourism and dollars to the city. “The board believes in horse racing, they believe in what it does for our community... it’s a big part of the heritage of the YEA and we’re not willing to let it die in this province without a fight.

ments that are less than conducive to learning,” he says. “We have larger class sizes with fewer supports, and certainly this budget is a real failure when it comes to education.” Wotherspoon says that the education budget should have met the challenges of inflation and population, but he says it doesn’t keep pace with inflation. He also says that long term care and health care are facing “tough choices.” With his party putting a high priority on long term care in their own platform, he says that it is disappointing to see very lit-
tle action on a front which he believes should be a priority. “If you look at the demographics of Saskatchewan, we need to be making investments in making more spaces and choices in long term care and this is something we’re falling further behind on.” “We hear of far too many circumstances of seniors being separated, many long distances from home communities and families, and that’s simply wrong.” Another area where Wotherspoon is not pleased is the SaskBuilds program, which is focused on Public-private partnerships, or P3s. He says
this is the wrong way to go about infrastructure improvements, and he believes that it will be a more expensive way to work on infrastructure improvements. “Really what it is, is a tricky privatization financing scheme to build infrastructure now, put the debt onto the books of the private sector at a higher interest rate and for it to cost us far more over the long run and for us to be transferring taxpayer money well into the future. It also brings with it concerns about control of that infrastructure.” While the Saskatchewan government is touting the new
budget as balanced, Wotherspoon also claims that it is not, and that the past three budgets have also not been balanced. He says that there needs to be a change in the way accounting is done in the province in order to allow for greater transparency. Overall, Wotherspoon finds the budget lacking, especially in areas which the provincial NDP have mentioned as their primary focus for the immediate future, such as in education and long-term care, and as a result says that his party does not support the budget.

Growing forward into the new year We’re balanced, we’re moving forward and the government says it not leaving anyone behind and rather it is committed to invest in the needs of our most vulnerable residents. “It’s wonderful to see our provincial economy and our population growing,” Social Services Minister June Draude said after the release of the 2013/14 provincial budget. “But growth for the sake of growth isn’t enough. We need to make sure all Saskatchewan residents are able to share in the benefits of that growth. Our government is doing that by increasing supports for seniors, persons with disabilities, families fleeing domestic violence and those with low incomes.” This is good news for those who struggle to make ends meet. “We want to make Saskatchewan the best place in Canada to live for people with disabilities, and the investments we are making will help us make this vision a reality,” Draude adds. “That is why we have committed to working with the disability community to develop a comprehensive disability strategy that will guide our work in the years to come. “With this budget, we are meeting the objectives of our government’s Plan for Growth by ensuring all Saskatchewan people – including our most vulnerable citizens – benefit from our strong and growing economy,” Draude concludes. While it hasn’t met the approval of all in the province, looking after the needs of the vulnerable in Saskatchewan is an important step in the right direction to ensuring all – and not just the well to do – enjoy a bright future.
Get up, get dressed, get to work She earned a $1.1 million bonus after working just six months for the company so she must be doing something right. Thirty seven year old Marissa Mayer was hired as Chief Executive Officer by Yahoo executives to boost productivity and to turn the company in a new positive direction. Of course that’s going to mean changes. If she kept going in the same direction, how can one expect productivity gains? Among the changes she’s implementing? She’s asking the slew of employees who strictly work from home start spending some quality time in the office. “To become the absolute best place to work, communication and collaboration will be important, so we need to be working side-by-side,” she says. “Speed and quality are often sacrificed when we work from home.” As much as anyone would enjoy the luxury and freedom offered through working from home, I will say, I have to agree with her. It just makes sense that closer communication and collaboration would equate to increased productivity. But there are plenty who don’t, especially the employees who are soon going to have to commute – at least part of the
time. “Mayer has taken a giant leap backward,” says one workforce consultant. “Instead of keeping great talent, she is going to find herself with a workplace full of people who are good at showing up and putting in time...’ “When employhave family or other Shannon Deveau ees personal issues they need to take care of, the feeling is that by being able to work from home you can take care of those in a much shorter period of time than commuting.” Naturally, if you’ve grown accustomed to working from home you are going to buck a system that’s going to require you to get up, get dressed, keep a schedule and fight the traffic but if company productivity is suffering can you really blame the higher ups for looking at change? Since Mayer has come on board with internet giant Yahoo, the company reported its first annual sales increase in four years. “She needs to rebuild the culture of this company, and she needs to drive revenue growth” says analyst Collin Gillis. “The whole notion of ending remote working, and whether it’s right or wrong, it’s her prerogative as CEO, and we’ll see if it helps her with those first two goals.” I think it all boils down to smart business sense.
The way I see it... Column
Earth Hour cannot actually cause any change Saskatchewan doesn’t do Earth Hour. The event, designed to make people more aware of climate change, was this past weekend, and from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Saturday evening Saskatchewan used just as much power as we usually do, with no meaningful difference between the preceding and following hour. We collectively ignored it, myself included. I don’t want to claim to represent the entirety of the province, but I have always ignored Earth Hour, and I probably always will. It’s mostly because it’s an empty symbolic gesture, one which doesn’t actually reach people outside of your own home. It’s a simple matter, when you turn off all of the lights, what are you actually going to do? You could sit in the dark, but that affects only you in your home, and there is no message transferred on. You could go out and do something elsewhere, but then your lights should be off anyway, since nobody is home. It either inconveniences you, because you’re unable to accomplish anything in the inky blackness of a March evening, or it doesn’t affect you, because you’re not home. So what’s the point of paying attention to the hour? Now, admittedly, I don’t have children, and an Earth Hour would have the most value for families, as they teach kids what they can do on a Saturday evening without being tethered to some kind of power
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger source. That’s an interesting idea, but why do you need an Earth Hour to actually accomplish this in the first place? There are more than enough opportunities throughout the year for these teaching moments, and it’s also easier to pitch fun things to do when you’re not trying to light your home with candles in an effort to actually see something. The candles are another problem I have with the entire Earth Hour project, because just lighting your house with something different for an hour isn’t going to make much change in the way you live your life. Every time I’ve had to light my house with candles the only thing that has happened is that I appreciate the
light bulb more, as it can actually light an entire room and won’t get knocked over by any errant animals which happen to be skulking about. A house fire is going to cause a significant release in greenhouse gasses. This is not to say I don’t advocate saving energy or making one’s home as efficient as possible, I definitely do. So does the rest of the province, since SaskPower’s efficiency projects tend to be popular. But that’s because trying to live efficiently every day is going to be more effective than turning off the lights for a bit. As well, buying the most efficient products you can is going to make those products more cost effective overall, as production is streamlined, making them more desirable to those who might not be on board for most green initiatives. That’s the real problem, convincing the reluctant to get on board. One can do that by showing the advantages of more efficient products and ways of living. It is, however, impossible to do that while you’re sitting in your dark house for an hour extinguishing the fires the cat starts with your candles. Earth Hour is a failure because it’s a very introverted activity, and instead any activism needs to be extroverted, actually reaching people and getting them to make an effective and permanent change.

Thank you for all your support Yorkton!
To the Editor:
On behalf of Canadian Blood Services, Happy New Year and a heartfelt thanks to all blood donors in Yorkton. Through your generosity more than 1008 blood donations were collected in 2012. This means that Yorkton donors gave enough blood to help 126 people undergoing heart surgery. Many of us spend years trying to make our mark in the world. As a blood donor; you are having a significant impact on someone’s life every time you give – someone like 12-yearold Locke Winslow from Melville, Saskatche-
wan. After years of dealing with abnormally high blood pressure, doctors discovered the main artery from Locke’s heart was too narrow for blood to pump through properly – it’s a congenital heart defect that could have been fatal. In January 2010, Locke had his first corrective heart surgery. He was just 10 years old and needed many blood donations to help him through. Corrective surgery is only a temporary fix. Locke will need future operations on his heart and he will likely need donated blood again too.
The need for blood continues to grow. When you give blood, it often takes less than a week for your donation to be transfused into a patient who needs blood from a donor, like you, to help them through chemotherapy, surgery, severe trauma and many other health conditions. In 2013 more than 50,000 blood donations will be needed in our province – and at least 5,000 more new donors. It’s going to take a lot of heart to reach this goal, but we know we can count on Yorkton donors to rally together once again this year. This year, please con-
sider bringing someone who has never given blood before with you. To book an appointment, please visit www. blood.ca or call 1 888 2 DONATE (1-888-2366283). From my heart to yours, thank you for your continued commitment to patients across Canada and here at home in Saskatchewan and best wishes to you and your family this New Year. Warmest regards, James Topinka, Community Development Coordinator, Canadian Blood Services.
Budget misses the mark – too much boom To the Editor: The Green Party of Saskatchewan thinks the latest provincial budget misses the mark in terms of balancing revenues and expenses with needs and priorities. There is too much ‘boom’ spending in this budget. There is a big difference between ensuring adequate core spending in government, and extravagant overspending. Given all of the new spending in the budget, we would ask why is Saskatchewan suffering from
homelessness and poverty? Here are some suggestions for Finance Minister Ken Krawetz to consider when preparing future budgets: • Reduction of the PST from 5 to 4 percent, • Reduce or eliminate all spending on government advertising except for emergency items, • Eliminate the Ministry of the Provincial Secretary and fold it into the Ministry of Intergovernmental Affairs, • Lay out a plan to eliminate the remaining provincial
debt over several years. • Budget $90-million to create much needed social housing. • Expand SAID program to become universal as a key approach to eliminating poverty. These are just some ideas. If time permitted, our party would roll out many more cost savings and better ways to create a more caring and sharing province. Victor Lau, Leader of the Green Party of Saskatchewan, Regina, SK.
Was it a calloused and insensitive reaction? To the Editor: Prime Minister Steven Harper’s reaction to the untimely death of Venezuelan’s popular Leader Hugo Chavez is calloused and insensitive to say the least. Should one have seen Harper turning cartwheels in the halls of 24 Sussex Dr. it would be no great surprise. Harper’s statement, “I hope
the people of Venezuela can now build for themselves a better, brighter future based on the principles of freedom, democracy, the rule of law and respect for human rights” barely contains his jubilance on Chavez’s death This from a man, who ignored the law countless times (CWB), prorogued Parliament and appointed lackey
Conservative Senators whenever it suited his needs. Chavez was elected by the people of Venezuela, and in his 14 years in power used his country’s lucrative oil wealth on social programs such as state-run food markets, new public housing, free health clinics and education programs. Instead of praising Chavez’s accomplishments, Harper
chose to ignore them. On the other hand, just a week previous, Harper had nothing but glowing praise for Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict), who for years harbored, protected, and condoned pedophile Priests who had molested thousands of children in their care. Figure that one out! Joyce Neufeld Waldeck, SK.
To the Editor: MP Garry Breitkreuz likes to say that he and the Conservative Party support our farmers. The facts say otherwise. This month, a new Conservative federal-provincial agricultural agreement goes into effect setting the course for farming in Canada for the next 5 years, marking an unprecedented attack on programs designed to help farmers manage their risk - backstops necessary to farmers in tough times. Among the shocking cuts to the business risk management (BRM) suite are cuts to AgriInvest, which helps cover income declines and provides funds to mitigate risks and invest in the farm, slashing its funding by 33 per cent. More surprisingly, they also take a huge chunk out of AgriStability, which helps cover declines in producers’ average income from previous years, hacking off as much as $411 million a year, for a total cut of more than $2 billion over the 5 year program. With these cuts, the Conservatives are leaving producers more vulnerable when bad times hit – and doing so despite clearly hearing from farmers how valuable these programs are. Instead of cutting red tape – they cut all the reasonable assistance farmers rely on in times of need. These cuts to BRM come on the heels of short-sighted plans to eliminate the Agroforestry Development Centre in Indian Head and the PFRA’s Community Pasture program – which both provide essential public services for producers that don’t have viable private business models – as well as reckless cuts to food inspection, which leaves the door open to another XL Foods-like crisis. The next time you hear Mr. Breitkreuz boast about his support for farmers, you might want to ask him about that record! Frank Valeriote, MP, Liberal Party of Canada Agriculture Critic.

Canada’s new Agroforestry Development Centre The federal role in providing trees to farmers can be traced back to the early 1900s and the need to help people immigrating to Canada. If you can imagine, early settlers arrived here to find a barren land without trees and exposed to the elements. Many plants brought from the old country were no match to the extreme cold, heat waves and often relentless wind. In 1901, the Government of Canada established a tree nursery program at Indian Head dedicated to researching, cultivating and supplying these new prairie farmers with trees and shrubs adaptable to the climate. These trees and shrubs were used to create shelterbelts to protect farmers’ homes, livestock and land from the harsh prairie weather. Since that time, more than 650 million evergreen and deciduous tree and shrub seedlings have been distributed by the Indian Head facility. The passage of time, however, has meant changes and adaptation to farming practices, and the tree nursery has had to undergo changes as well. The facility is now called the Agroforestry Development Centre and much of the focus has turned to research.
Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) announced last spring that while it intends to turn the Prairie Shelterbelt Program over to the private sector, it will continue to develop agroforestry science, technology and genetic materials at the site in Indian Head. This research will help ensure the future sustainability of the agricultural land and improve the competitive position of the agriculture sector. On-going studies are investigating how agroforest-
ry benefits agro-ecosystems by protecting water and soil, sequestering carbon, and enhancing biodiversity and crop productivity. Tree improvement research concentrates on developing superior, genetically diverse varieties that are hardy and well-adapted to environmental extremes. Researchers are also studying key factors affecting the seedling performance, health, growth and function of trees and shrubs. Innovative and environmentally sound agroforestry management practices are developed by studying nursery management, environmental stresses, nutrition, pests, diseases and vegetative competition. The core research program is located at the Agroforestry Development Centre in Indian Head with collaborative projects at locations across Canada. For more information on the Agroforestry Development Centre, visit the Agriculture and AgriFood Canada website at www.agr.gc.ca www.agr.gc. ca/> and type Agroforestry Development Centre in the search feature.
Economic action – federal plan in place for 2013 Yorkton/Melville Member of Parliament Garry Breitkreuz says he welcomes the new federal budget – Economic Action Plan 2013 – and its continued focus on job creation, economic growth, and long-term prosperity as good news for YorktonMelville. The Plan, which will see Canada return to balanced budgets in 2015, keeps federal taxes at their lowest level in 50 years. “While Canada has the best job creation record among all G-7
countries since the worst of the global recession with over 950,000 net new jobs, we recognize that the global economy remains very challenging,” said Breitkreuz. “In Economic Action Plan 2013, our Conservative government remains squarely focused on the number one priority of Canadians, with a forward-looking plan to help create jobs and grow the economy in Saskatchewan and across Canada.” Breitkreuz notes that Economic Action Plan
2013 includes key measures to strengthen Canada’s economy, including: • Increased skills and training support, including the new $15,000 Canada Job Grant, to help more Canadians find high-quality, wellpaying jobs; • Tax breaks for manufacturers who buy new machinery and equipment to stay competitive, and an extended ‘hiring credit’ for small businesses who create jobs; • A record $70 billion federal investment in
infrastructure across Canada, including roads, bridges, subways, rail lines, and ports; • Major investments in research and technology; • New tax relief for Canadians who give to charity, adopt a child, or rely on homecare services; • Elimination of ‘import tax’ tariffs on everyday items Canadian families buy, like baby clothing, sports gear, and exercise equipment; • Support for farmers by increasing and index-
ing the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption to $800,000 from $750,000; and doubling the current deduction limit under restricted farm loss income tax rules from $8,750 to $17,500. • New measures to improve the quality of life for Canadian seniors; • And much more. Economic Action Plan 2013 also confirmed the Conservative government’s continued alltime record support for hospitals, schools, and other important health and social services in
Saskatchewan. In fact, in 2013-14, federal transfer support to Saskatchewan will be $273 million higher than under the former federal Liberal government. “We all remember the former Liberal government slashed transfers for health care and education. Our Conservative government rejects that shameful practice, and is protecting and growing transfers to help support the services that Saskatchewan families depend on,” concludes Breitkreuz.
Golfing for health: annual Charity Classic event slated Con’t from Page 1. “In the 13 years of the Charity Golf Classic, $930,000 has been raised and used to purchase medical equipment. Last year the golfers did an amazing job raising over $95,000; that’s an average of about $660 raised by each golfer.” As a bit of an incentive CAA Travel Saskatchewan and our sponsors are helping us offer great prizes and trips again this year. First prize this year, which goes to the golfer raising the most money, is two days at a PGA Tour event followed by a seven day Cruise with Holland America. “CAA Travel Saskatchewan has donated the top prize to the golfer raising the most money for the last 11 years, and we are very pleased to continue sponsoring the main prize,” says Linda Koroluk, Manager of CAA Travel in Yorkton. “This is a great tournament; all the proceeds are used to buy new medical equipment and if we can encourage the golfers to compete and try to raise more funds in order
to win a great prize that we provide – that’s wonderful. The real winners are the residents of our area who will have good equipment in our healthcare facilities.” Sponsorship covers the entire cost of the tournament and the prizes, which mean 100 per cent of the money golfers’ raise goes toward medical equipment or items for patient care and comfort. The Charity Golf Classic buys something for every healthcare facility in the Sunrise Health Region. “The Charity Golf Classic organizing committee is made up primarily of volunteers from the Presenting Sponsors,” adds Jerry Jemieff, “and I would like to recognize and thank our presenting sponsors: Mosaic Potash Esterhazy, SaskTel, LDM Foods Ltd., and the Credit Unions of East Central Saskatchewan.” “This year again, there will be 144 golfers from all over this region collecting pledges and raising money for healthcare in our local communities. We ask everyone to once again support the golfers who will be seeking pledges. 100 per cent of the money
pledged to golfers will be invested in needed equipment.” Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation adds, “Last year 1,643 individuals made pledges to golfers. That is a huge number of people participating in one event. The Charity Golf Classic is unlike many of the projects The Health Foundation takes on in that it doesn’t raise money for a major piece of equipment. Instead we buy something for each facility in the health region. That might be a hospital bed, or a vital signs monitor, or a blood analyzer. Someone you know, in your own community, is likely to use a piece of medical equipment this golf tournament buys before the end of the year.” “We think the fact the money goes right back into our local communities helps people connect with how the Charity Golf Classic is very much local, and very much about people. We hope that will help people to be generous again this year when a golfer approaches them for a pledge,” concludes Jemieff.

Romance fraud: what is it?
March is Fraud Awareness Month in Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan RCMP Federal Investigations – Economic Crime Section, Saskatchewan Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority and the Saskatoon and Regina Police Services are joining forces to educate the public about the types of frauds investigators are seeing across the province. This column is the fifth of a series to be published this month. What is Romance Fraud?
A romance fraud is a confidence trick involving feigned romantic intentions towards a victim, gaining her or his affection and then using that goodwill to commit fraud. Fraudulent acts may involve gaining access to the victim’s money, bank accounts, credit cards, passports, or email accounts. It can also include getting the victims to commit financial fraud on behalf of the suspect. Who are the potential victims of a romance fraud? It can be anyone, male or female, young or old. The con men/women are targeting single men and women who are looking for love. These fraudsters are adept at using any weakness they can find to their advantage. They might use poetry or gifts to lure you in or they might promise you marriage and an end to your loneliness. Once they have you under their spell, they will try to reach for your wallet, all the time declaring their “undying love” for you. How to protect yourself against romantic fraud:
Acknowledge that you could be a potential target. Who is the most vulnerable? Someone who thinks that it can’t happen to them. If you are honest, open and try to see the best in people, don’t change who you are, but recognize that you could be a con artist’s perfect victim. A con person can be so persuasive that intuition alone may not provide a loud enough alert. Make sure you talk to trusted
friends and family about new relationships, introduce your new “friend” to them and ask for their feedback. They may see things that you are blind to because they can be more objective. Recognize your own weak spots, such as a great desire to be in a relationship. If a strong social, sexual or financial relationship is starting to develop, be cynical. Where do we find these con men/women?
Perpetrators of romance fraud can appear anywhere: at work, on vacation, online or even at your place of worship. Be especially cautious of men and women who have no apparent connections with relatives, friends or colleagues. Ask yourself, “Why are these men/women single? Where are their commitments?” Other red flags to watch out for: • The relationship takes off like a rocket. • He/she overwhelms you with attention, eye contact, gifts and promises of adventure. • He/she keeps you on a short leash with frequent phone calls. • He/she meets your relatives/friends but you never meet his/hers due to many different excuses. • He/she becomes evasive or testy when questioned. • Your intuition tells you that he’s/she’s too good to be true. • He/she asks for access to your financial information or credit cards. • He/she asks you to sell your house or other belongings so that you can “buy a new house together”
NEW FRIEND – Hey there, my name’s Onyx. I’m a one year old neutered male American Eskimo. I’m a great little dog, and I’m looking for a great new home. So if you’ve got a loving, responsible family, be sure to consider making me a part of it. To learn more come visit the SPCA or call 306-783-4080.
to anyone else who might become this fraudster’s next victim. Police will not judge you and will do all they can to investigate. Lying about love is not a crime. But, if your con man/woman defrauds or steals from you or even if you’re not sure a crime has been committed, contact police. You can also call The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501.

Reporting a fraud If you suspect you’re being conned, end the relationship immediately. Change your locks and don’t confront him/her. Most cons won’t return for revenge but there are always exceptions and confrontation is risky. Contact your local police department and report the con. Sometimes this is more difficult than ending the relationship because nobody wants to admit they’ve been fooled. Overcome that reluctance; you owe it to yourself and
Whatever you need done, you’ll find the solutions right here!

What do you spread on your toast? When it comes to cooking, baking, and mealtime, butter has a definite role in the kitchen and at the dinner table. I know that even mentioning the comparison of butter to margarine is going to stir up a lot of opinions, but even with my expectation of receiving negative emails I am going to express my view. We use butter in our home on a daily basis for cooking, baking and serving and I cannot even remember the last time margarine made its way into my refrigerator. In my opinion nothing is better for flavour, richness, melt ability, texture, and in moderation, health benefits. Butter is one of the oldest and most natural products there is, yet it has taken quite a beating by margarines. Many people buy margarine due to budgetary restrictions, but I would assume that there are just as many, if not more, that purchase it because of perceived health benefits. Not all margarines are created equal and it is important to read the labels of any product that is manufactured and/or processed, including butter. If one is purchasing margarine, one of the main things to look out for in an ingredient list is “hydrogenated” or “modified” oil. Hydrogenation is the process used to transform liquid oil into a solid fat at room temperature. Vegetable shortening, many peanut butters and various margarines are made in this manner and this process creates artificially produced trans fats which are now considered the worst type of fat for the heart. Butter is not processed using hydrogenation. As a matter of fact, butter is hardly processed

by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com at all. What butter does have is a very small amount of naturally occurring trans fat, also present in the meat of animals such as beef and lamb. A 1994 Harvard University study, as well as research from other credible sources, have concluded that a diet high in Trans Fat doubles the chance for heart attack and decreases life expectancy. While trans fats can occur naturally, they are most commonly associated with chemical preservative techniques like hydrogenation and health experts recommend that you limit your intake of hydrogenated or partiallyhydrogenated foodstuffs as much as possible. It is also important to point out that a two teaspoon serving of butter usually has no more calories or fat than margarine or olive oil. So are butter, margarine, and vegetable oils bad for you? First of all, let’s point out that the term “bad” is not very definitive. It depends on what you are looking for and it is imperative to keep in mind that there are pros and cons for everything. Let’s face it; no matter what type of fat you are ingesting on a regular basis, moderation is the key, as with almost everything. For instance, many doctors may tell you that red wine is good for you, but always in moderation: One glass per day may be fine, but skipping
and the
the whole week and having seven glasses on Friday night, not so much. No matter how you look at it, nothing can replace the flavour and mouth feel of butter, and also the texture created by using it in baked goods. Dear Chef Dez: Some recipes call for unsalted butter and also call for salt. Please explain why this is?
Dear Vivian:
Vivian D. Surrey, BC
Usually one will often see this by pastry chefs wanting to control the amount of salt in their pastry, which is usually less than the percentage found in the butter. Unless making very precise recipes, there is no need to use unsalted butter and I have always used salted butter for everything. It is less expensive than unsalted butter and butter is expensive enough already. Send your food/cooking questions to dez@chefdez. com or P.O.

The farmer is trained, moves on and settles in Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. It was a white but cold Christmas! BRRR! The faraway kids could not make it out for Christmas this year, so it was only Marion and I, our daughter Sue and Marion’s oldest brother Jim. Anyway, we were treated by the Hazel Dell Carolers, Rebecca Johnson, Olivia Johnson, Eddy Carr, Brenda Stein, Courtney Stein and Ernest Swehla on December 23. I have never been treated by carolers before, so I had no idea of what the custom is. Should I have rewarded them with a hot drink? Or a Christmas cookie (we didn’t bake any this year). I have to research this for next year! We would have invited them in, but we have no way of containing our Mastiff, nor the Labrador/Collie cross, and those two would have been all over the strangers in an effort to guard us, and some of the carolers were children so we didn’t want to take any chances. Being a Norwegian/Canadian couple, we celebrated Christmas twice! We had a traditional Norwegian Christmas on Christmas Eve, and then of course the traditional Canadian Christmas on Christmas Day! But only one set of presents. So between pork roast with sweet and sour cabbage, and a turkey (the bird that is) with all the trimmings, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! And of course we Skyped with close relatives in Norway. There is an eight hour time difference with Norway, so Santa arrived there first. It was reported to us from a reliable source, our niece Line in Drammen, Norway, who told us that her
children observed Santa landing on their roof and noticed that “Olive the Other Reindeer” was not in the team this year. You know the song “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” describes how “Olive the Other Reindeer” teased poor Rudolph. Time to make some New Year’s Resolutions. I might just make one New Year’s Resolution, one that I know I can keep: My Resolution will be not to make any Resolutions! There! I know I can keep that one! Other Resolutions that I know I can keep: 10. Read less. 9. I want to gain weight. Put on at least 30 pounds. 8. Don’t exercise. Waste of time. 7. Watch more TV. I’ve been missing some good stuff. 6. Procrastinate more. 5. Tell tall tales. 4. Start being superstitious. 3. Spend more time snoozing. 2. Stay up late. 1. Visit my new (in March) grandchild. The following resolutions were done by our dogs: 15. We will not eat our own or any other animals’ poop. 14. We will not lick our human master’s faces after eating animal poop. 13. We will not block the entrance to the living room or any other room. 12. Our heads do not belong in the refrigerator. 11. We will no longer be beholden to the sound of
the fridge door opening. 10. We will try not to bite the human master that is trimming our toenails. 9. We will come to understand that our human masters are above us in the pecking order. 8. We will stop smelling the behinds of our human masters or any other animal. 7. We will not sneak up behind our human masters and goose them with our snouts. 6. We will stop ignoring our human masters when they call us. 5. We will endeavour to grow opposable thumbs; break into the pantry; decide for OURSELVES how much food is *too* much. 4. We will not rip our bedding apart pretending it has to be killed! 3. We will stop chasing the barn cats. 2. The garbage cans are NOT hiding our stuff. AND the Number 1 New Year’s Resolutions Made by our Pets... 1. We will NOT chase the stick until we see it LEAVE THE HUMAN’S HAND!

Celebrating 130 Years of Bringing Family & Friends Together 1910 - 1919 A New Beginning, The War Intervenes Donna Taylor ~author~ While the fair was officially incorporated at the end of 1909, there was still work to be done to complete the reorganization. The first secretary manager of the Exhibition Association was hired in early 1910, and an office was rented shortly thereafter in the Enterprise Building at $15 per month. The first committees of the Exhibition Association were set up early in the new year as follows: Excursion and Transportation, Finance, Gates, Grandstands and Privileges, Attractions, Publicity and Advertising, Sports and Racing. Bylaws for the corporation were approved in March of that year. Once incorporated, regular business meetings became the order of the day. The minute book records 21 meetings of the Board of Directors for the year 1910. Although new grounds had been purchased fairly recently (1900) there was already a lot of talk about another move. It was a matter of some contention, and a special meeting was held in August of 1910 to receive a delegation of farmers on the topic. Mr. J. Caldwell, chairman of the delegation, delivered to the Board a letter signed by 26 farmers, which stated as follows: “The undersigned, former members of the Yorkton AgriculturalSociety... are opposed to any steps being taken looking towards the transferring or disposition of the present grounds.” Apparently the Board did not consider the objection to be well founded, as they proceeded later that same month to take an option on eighty acres of land belonging to Levi Beck, and tendered the old grounds. No tenders were received on the old grounds, and that purchase didn’t proceed. By 1912, the Association had made a deal with the York Farmers Colonization Co. for the purchase of 40 acres at $500 per acre. That 40 acres, along with an additional 28 acres of land purchased later from the company, comprises the current fair grounds. The old grounds were sold to a group of investors led by a Mr. Toohill (the ‘Toohill Syndicate’) in June of 1912, at the price of $45,000, with the Association taking back a vendor mortgage. Buildings were moved from the old grounds to the new. Payments on the Toohill mortgage, and consequently on the Association’s own agreement for sale were slow, and by July of 1918 the amount still owing by the Exhibition was $32,221.27. At that time the York Farmers Colonization Co. offered to reduce the debt to $18,000 if the Association could pay $1,000 cash and $1,000 per annum. As they couldn’t come up with the cash nothing was done, and by July of 1919 York Farmers were prepared to take $15,000 comprised of $1,500 cash plus $1,000 per year. Finances were better in 1919, and the Association not only came up with the $1,500 cash required, but managed another $2,000 payment before year’s end. Some buildings were moved from the old site, but there was plenty of construction on the new site in these years. A racing stable with 20 stalls, two stables to accommodate 50 horses, a race track and fencing of the grounds were first on the agenda. In 1914, Ritchie and Watters of Portage la Prairie was awarded the tender to erect a grand stand at a

cost of $7,700. A stable for cattle and one for pigs and sheep followed, and the old dining hall was fixed up as a poultry house. A gateway was installed on Broadway to use as the main entrance. Finances were often difficult, and the Association approached Town Council on several occasions suggesting the Town take over the fair grounds. The records don’t indicate any interest on the Town’s part, and the matter was dropped for the time being. The Association did gratefully receive donations to assist in their operations. Town council provided annual grants, increasing the amount from $750 to $1000 in 1915, the Dominion Government gave annual grants (with the exception of 1918 - the war years were lean), and the Rural Municipalities of Wallace and Orkney gave regular financial support as well. World War I was raging in Europe, and its effects reached the Town of Yorkton and the Association itself. Those were the early days - before it was known as World War I, before it even came to be known as the Great War, the minutes make reference to “the present European war in defence of the British Empire”. In December of 1916 the Board sent a letter of condolence to C.D. Livingstone on the loss of his son, also C.D., who had served as mayor of Yorkton for a year prior to quitting to join the army. C.D. the father had for several years been honoured as a patron of the Association. 1917 recorded further losses. The minutes of May 5, 1917 show condolences sent to former director, Mr. J.C. Caldwell, on the loss of a son in action, and to the family on the death of Ed Smith, who had served as as director of the Association from 1910 to 1914. The very next meeting, held on the 26th of that month, records condolences to Mr. R Rousey, a former director and then a patron of the Association, on the loss of his son. The war produced other issues for the Board. A motion of February 24, 1917 reads: “That in the opinion of this Board the Dominion Government should conscript the Labor of Canada, for Agricultural and Military purposes.” In 1918, they passed a resolution requesting the Department of Education to amend the School Act to allow boys and girls of 12 years and over to leave school to help in the farm work for
the duration of the war. The seed grain and poultry show continued and blossomed over the years. In this decade the show varied in length, sometimes one day, sometimes two, and even expanding to three in 1918. The directors were happy with the direction of the show, and with good reason. In 1917 the directors reported that one of the judges of the seed fair and poultry show - a Mr. Seager Wheeler - had indicated that the seed fair and poultry show of 1917 was one of the best fairs he had attended in six years. Seager Wheeler has been described as the most famous farmer in the history of the Canadian Prairies. He is known as an international prizewinner in wheat competitions and the author of many publications on progressive farming techniques, making his comments the highest of compliments. The seed fair generally concluded with a banquet, and it is interesting to note that in 1911 arrangements were made for that banquet with Mr. Harry Bronfman of the Balmoral Hotel. While attractions and entertainment for the summer in the earliest years were arranged by sending a couple of directors on an excursion to book the same (generally to Winnipeg), that changed before the end of this decade. The Yorkton Exhibition Association become a member of the Western Canada Fair and Racing Circuit in 1913, and in 1917, delegates to the Western Canada Fair Association were successful in having the Yorkton Association admitted to the circuit. In 1918 Yorkton was included on the Class A circuit. By 1919 the constitution of the Western Canada Fairs Association had changed, requiring Class A fairs to have $10,000 in prizes and $10,000 in paid admission, thus moving the Yorkton fair to the Class B circuit. Soon Yorkton would begin its own farm camps, but this decade saw the beginning of interest in these events. 1917 records the Association sending boys from Yorkton to the Farm Boys Camp at the Regina Provincial Fair for the first time, and in 1918 girls were sent to the Farm Girls Camp in Saskatoon as well. 1917 also saw the first calf feeding competition. It was open to any boy over 8 and under 17 years, who had fed, cared for and fitted his animal for at least three months prior to the opening of the fair. Two short years later, girls were allowed to enter this competition as well. Children were a real focus for the Association in the later part of the decade. 1918 is the first year where there is mention of a School Children’s Day at the fair - which allowed children free admission to the grounds and the grand stand. Other features associated with the fair were continued, not every year, but as best as the Association could manage. Some, but not all of these years, included a spring stallion show, a stock parade, summer fallow and standing grain competitions and plowing matches. And there were other exhibits of note. In 1919 there was both an aviator engaged to give flights from the fairgrounds, and a moving picture exhibit offered free by the government. In the year before Yorkton’s first theatre opened, that would have been a major attraction.

HIGHWAY 10 BATTLE. Patrick Martens gets pushed out of a scrum during Game Three of the Terriers Sherwood Conference Final with the Mils. The Terriers are up 2-1 in the series.
Terriers jump to 2-1 lead over Millionaires
By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
Going into Tuesday night the Yorkton Terriers had to be feeling pretty good about their recent success in the SJHL Playoffs. Four straight wins including Games One and Two in the Highway 10 Battle against the Melville Millionaires had the Terriers up 2-0 in the Sherwood Conference Final heading into Game Three at the FAA where the Terriers would have
a chance to bury their rivals and take a commanding 3-0 in the series. With just one loss at home all year the odds were stacked up against the Millionaires going into the FAA and with the Terriers just allowing one goal in each of the opening two games of the series everyone involved was prepared for a tightly contested clash. Christian Magnus opened the scoring for Melville on the powerplay after a very questionable Austin Bourhis hooking penalty away from the play
drew the ire of the Terriers supporters. However, the Millionaires would not be complaining as they capitalized on the scoring opportunity and jumped out to the early lead. Captain Devon McMullen would add his second goal of the series for the Terriers to tie it up with an absolute beauty of a wrist shot coming in from the slot off the blueline , evening things up off a nice assist from Zak Majkowski.

Raiders take 4A bronze at Hoopla to end era
By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
Nearly five years ago Jason Payne saw the last player from the Kris Heshka led Raiders provincial championship team graduate in Nolan Johnstone, ending an era as well as seeing nearly his entire team graduate creating a transition period for the Sr. Raiders basketball program. In came Daniel Mandziuk and Ben Redl, who made the transition process nice and short for the Raiders, coming in as grade nines from MC Knoll and St. Mikes respectively, the two would form a bond together and provide an immediate impact for the Raiders with Mandziuk leading the Sr. Raiders in scoring in just Grade nine. Fast forward to 2013 and the Raiders headed into Hoopla for the last weekend of the dynamic duo’s high school career looking to go out on top against number one ranked Prince Albert St. Mary’s, a team that had beat them four times this season. Something that was a longshot statistically was something the Raiders thought they could realistically achieve after an impressive March performance against St. Mary’s and quality wins over Swift Current and Weyburn set up a date in the pro-
vincial semifinals with the top seeded Maurauders. However, the fairytale ending was not quite in the books as a 13-0 St. Mary’s run to start the game followed
by another quick run by the Maurauders to end the half had the Raiders down 15 with just two quarters left in the game. Cont. on Page 12

Wakaluk steals Game Three for the Mils in H10 Battle Cont. from Page 11 Despite the clutch goal scoring from their captain, the Terriers could not stop Russell Trudeau from continuing his clutch playoff play for the Millionaires scoring his fifth of the playoffs to send the Mils up 2-1 heading into the second period. After the three goal first both teams started to play a much more defensively sound hockey game with the Terriers digging in and trying to press on for the game tying goal. The second period was all Terriers as they outshot the Mils 12-4, but Alex Wakaluk began to show signs that he was going to steal the show after being bested by Dawson MacAuley in Game One and Game Two. The SJHL MVP made all twelve saves in the period to keep the Mils 2-1 lead intact going into the third period. An early third period powerplay off a Russell Trudeau hooking penalty would give the Terriers their first quality
chance of the closing frame just 46 seconds into the third, but a Jeremy Johnson interference penalty would negate the man advantage, which would serve as a turning point in Game Three as the Terriers could not solve Wakaluk at even strength on Tuesday night. Wakaluk made 11 saves in the third period before a Christian Magnus empty net goal sealed a Mils 3-1 win in a game the Terriers dominated for much of the sixty minutes, breathing new life into the Millionaires season while giving the Terriers thoughts of what could have been had they gone up 3-0 in the series. Despite the letdown of losing a game where they outshot their rivals 40-23, Terriers head coach Trent Cassan wasn’t overly disappointed in the result. “You aren’t going to win every game in the playoffs and we didn’t expect to win this series in four games so now we will shift our focus to Game Four” says Cassan. Cont. on Page 15.
ALEX WAKALUK stole Game Three for Melville with a 39 save performance at the FAA Tuesday. The SJHL MVP was outdeuled by Dawson MacAuley in the first two games of the series to give the Terriers a 2-1 series lead.
Raiders late three leads them to provincial bronze at Hoopla Cont. from Page 11
Things did not go the Raiders way to start the third quarter either as St. Mary’s employed a full court press to jump out to a lead the Raiders could not come back from, resulting eventually in a blowout loss to end the Raiders dreams of reaching a provincial championship. “We were tight and nervous and it showed in some of the plays that didn’t go our way in the semifinal,” said Jason Payne about the loss. Payne also pointed out that the 13-0 run was probably the turning point of the game. “Going down 13-0 to start the game was a huge blow for us as we went into halftime just down 15 so if we could have erased that start we pretty much played with them for the rest of the first half after that point” laments Payne. After the loss the Raiders would go up against Regina school O’Neill in the bronze medal game. With both teams coming off of heartbreaking semifinal losses both teams did not know what to expect coming into the game emotion wise, something Payne noted and addressed before the game saying, “I spoke to the players and Grade Twelve’s going into the bronze medal game and asked them how they wanted to play their last game with a Raider jersey on and I felt that
kind of spoke to them heading into a game where both teams could have easily just mailed it in and went home after a tough loss the day before.” In the first half the Raiders and O’Neill exchanged baskets with each team matching up well with each other. O’Neill’s talented guards and one big post player gave an almost perfect balance to the Raiders strengths which made for a great display of basketball early on with both teams kind of feeling each other out In the third quarter O’Neill decided to make their run, jumping out to a ten point lead to start the fourth, giving the Raiders a huge hole to overcome. However some huge plays from their senior leaders got the Raiders back into the game as Darien Kequahtoway scored 21 points in the game, getting the Raiders back into the game with some timely three point shooting to help tie the game. With the game tied Payne drew up a pick and roll for Mandziuk to run with Redl for the last time, where Mandziuk drew the double team and kicked it out to David Kauenhofen who drained a three to win the game and secure bronze for the Raiders. “It is hard to play in a bronze medal game after wanting so badly to win a provincial title but I can say we are all proud of what we accomplished this year
ALEX POPOFF drives for a layup late in the Raiders loss to St. Mary’s. Popoff will be a key part of the Raiders 2013/14 season as they look to rebuild without two of their top five all-time scorers next season.
and I will miss each player who graduated on this team” said Payne who noted that losing players is the hardest thing about
coaching high school basketball. The Raiders will now look to begin a new era with new players. The
nature of the beast of high school sports makes it that way, a talented crop of Jr. Raiders and Alex Popoff will lead the
way next season while Mandziuk/Redl move on. The torch has been passed but the memories of the era live on.

Bantam Terriers take provincial gold By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer With spring on its way minor hockey season is coming to an end, with Saskatchewan Minor Hockey hosting its provincial playoffs in cities all across the province at all levels, and Yorkton added yet another banner to their total this month as the Bantam A Terriers finished their journey to provincial gold. After a successful regular season travelling to tournaments and in league play, the Bantam Terriers faced Swift Current in the South Region semifinal. In the home/away two leg series the Terriers had no problem advancing to the South championship,
beating Swift Current 7-0 in total goes over two games to advance to the championship where they would take on Estevan. The South final was a bit more tricky for the Terriers, but an experienced team that included four provincial champions from two years ago persevered and beat Estevan 8-7 on total goals to win the series and advance to face North Battleford in the provincial final where another two game playoff would take place. After a tight and emotional South final the Terriers game into the home leg of their series with the Battleford Barons flying as they won their first game of the series
7-1 at the Kinsmen in a rout that would give them the upperhand heading on the road for Game Two with a six goal cushion to hold onto, all but guaranteeing a provincial championship barring an epic collapse in Battleford. The Barons gave the Terriers a much better game in Game Two, leading 3-2 after two periods, but were no match for the Terriers, led by captain Kade Johnson, who sealed the series and brought home provincial gold. A provincial championship that came rather easy for the Terriers despite their close call in Estevan saw an experienced group of Yorkton Minor Hockey players lead their team
to an unforgettable experience in winning a provincial banner that will likely hang in the Kinsmen Arena. It was a great weekend for the YMH program as the Pee Wee A/ AA teams also took home provincial gold over the weekend, giving the city three banners this spring with action still going on at other age levels, with three banners at the Bantam/Pee Wee levels, good things can be in the future for the YMH program as their young and up and coming stars have earned a taste of victory to end the 2012/13 minor hockey season.

Rapid Fire Rants: Canadians in NCAA’s, Iginla, Opening Day Spring is finally here. Even though storms wrecked havoc through most of the province last week, it is about that time of year where the snow melts and the weather begins to shift. Along with the weather patterns shifting so does the sports world. Basketball/hockey are closing out their regular seasons, March Madness tipped off last Thursday and MLB Opening Day is less than a week away. So in the spirit of the season it is time for everybody’s favorite edition of Ruttig’s Rants, it is rapid fire time. The opening weekend of the NCAA Basketball Tournament this weekend brought the usual barrage of buzzer beaters, upsets, alley oops, and overall great basketball as sixty four games of basketball were played between Thursday and Sunday night in what is March’s best sporting event every year. However the big story this year are the high number of Canadians playing in the tournament. From Kelly Olynyk and Kevin Pangos leading the #1` ranked team in the nation in the Gonzaga Bulldogs to Nick Stauskas starting at shooting guard for the Michigan Wolverines, big time college basketball players are all over the map in the NCAA tournament these days. In total 29 Canadians were on teams that cracked the field of 64 in this year’s tournament and ten of them averaged double figures. With even more Canadian college stars missing out on March with Kentucky’s Kyle Wijiter and Baylor’s Brady Heslip narrowly missing the tournament after being prominent players on teams that went very deep in last year’s tournament. With three years to the 2016 Olympics and
Canadian ‘s making a name for themselves in college and the NBA, the days of being able to count the amount of Canadians in the basketball spotlight on one hand. With Steve Nash in an executive role with Canada Basketball and more and more Canadians coming from high school’s into big time college basketball programs, it is time the game invented by a Canadian gets a touch of Canadian flare and I personally love it. On the homeside 2013 Hoopla was a mixed success as the 5A tournament saw the field of eight reduced to six due to road troubles that plagued many people from getting into Saskatoon on Thursday and Friday. While the SHSAA did the best job they could in scheduling Hoopla at the latest weekend it has been in years and were handcuffed by Easter Break, it is a shame that some teams were robbed of their Hoopla moment. As a former high school basketball player who never made the tournament my condolences go out to the teams who were forced out of participating in one of Saskatchewan’s best sporting events due to mother nature. Congrats on a positive note to Jason Payne and the YRHS Raiders for winning their second straight 4A bronze medal at the event, ending the Daniel Mandziuk and Ben Redl era with a win over Regina O’ Neill. Great coach, great players, and great kids.

arose, earning praise from Cassan postgame. “Baer was injured during last year’s series with Melville as a 17 year old and is now getting his chance to play in the playoffs and has been playing very good for us in the start of this series, playing very physical and trying to get things going for us which adds a lot to our defensive depth,” says Cassan. Cassan also backed up that the strength of the defense as being a huge factor in their 2-1 lead saying, “When you can hold a team that has the two leading scorers in the league to just four goals

in three games you have to be happy with your chances and that needs to continue going forward as you can’t get your best defensive pairing on their best line at all times because they have three lines of very good offensive talent.” With the series now at 2-1 in a best of seven series, the table is now set for a Game Four that could see the Mils tie up the series, but Cassan says the team will key on what has worked for them as of late as the Terriers are 2-1 on the road in the playoffs thus far. “We have had some good success on the road in the playoffs so far so we will

try to rely on what has worked for us so far and tinker a bit here and there where it is needed and we hope to come out on top in Game Four,” says Cassan. As for keys to the series going forward, Cassan mentioned that his Terriers still have veterans on the team that have yet to step up, something he thinks will come in handy as a difference maker once they do saying, “We have a couple of older players on the roster who have yet to take over a game in the playoffs who know they can do more and want to do more but just haven’t converted on some

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, March 28, 2013 - Page 15A
Terriers/Mils rivalry continues its most recent chapter in playoffs chances they have had so far in March and once they step up it could be a huge momentum swing for our team and if they keep working hard it will happen.” With a 2-1 series in the Sherwood Conference Final the Highway 10 Battle has been everything once could expect from it. Scrappy, hard fought and low scoring games have been the norm in this series with both teams barns being near sellouts in the first three games. With four potential games left in the series anything can happen, but as of now the Terriers are in the drivers seat.

The addition of these new rooms and those to come from the Holiday Inn Express and the Microtel, all YBID Members, will see a move up the ladder when it comes to hosting major events in our city. In the past the Tourism Yorkton folks will tell you it was difficult to bid on some conventions and events because there was simply no place to hold the event and house those attending. Now we have the Gallagher Centre helping the location problem. Now with the addition of new hotel rooms this opens the door for Yorkton to host several different events, trade shows and conferences. We cannot forget the Ramada and Comfort Inn as well as the Redwood Motel and Yorke Inn. For years they have taken on the role of playing host to numerous guests for both business and pleasure and will continue to do so in the future as part of the YBID Family of Accommodations.
