Tourism is tops – local awards handed out By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Tourism Yorkton has received a major award. The “Where Good Things Happen” campaign was the recipient of the Gil Carduner Marketing Award for under $20,000 budget. The campaign was a multi-media campaign, taking place through a wide variety of platforms, with direct mail, online marketing, print as well as consumer shows. Randy Goulden, Executive Director for Tourism Yorkton, says that the initiative was a collaborative effort, putting forth Yorkton as a four-seasons destination. “We were just excited to be nominated, especially knowing all the nominations that they received. Of course, being the recipient was being very special for us, because we know that the other finalists do some great work in marketing and bringing people in the province, and it’s up to us to make sure people spend time and money in Yorkton,” Goulden says. The campaign was a success in its main goal as well, bringing people to the Yorkton area. Goulden says that Tourism Yorkton has seen many visitors from all of the regions where the campaign was run, primarily in Western Canada and the Northern US. “I think the campaign works very well for us, because as we do the work we do in the information center, we see people coming from many different areas of the United States and Canada.” Tourism Yorkton will continue to market with partners and look for new ways to market the city and attract tourists to Yorkton.
Goulden awarded By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Trans Canada Yellowhead Highway Association (TCYHA) has been working to make Highway 16 the best way to get across Western Canada. Yorkton city councillor Randy Goulden has been active in the association since 1995, and was recently honored with the Tête Jaune award, recognizing long standing commitment to the organization.

A SPRING CONCERT – Spring has finally arrived, and what better way to celebrate than with a concert? Regina’s Band-It Concert and Jazz Bands, Yorkton Community Concert and All That Jazz Big Band, and students from Sacred Heart’s music program all joined together for a big band on the weekend, playing a variety of music to celebrate the new season.
Airport funded for more upgrades Fifteen airports – including Yorkton’s – have just been approved for grants through the Community Airport Partnership (CAP) program. For the third consecutive year, the government is providing $700,000 to CAP, which is designed to help offset costs for various upgrades and repairs. Yorkton is receiving $150,000 for runway and taxiway repairs, drainage rehabilitation, fencing, apron and taxiway expansion. Community airports were able to apply for funding for projects supporting economic development, general access to surrounding communities, air ambulances, commercial operations and aviation safety. Airports that receive scheduled passenger service are not eligible for the program. “Our government continues to place a high priority on our airport infrastructure,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris comments. “A safe
and strong network of airports ensures the Saskatchewan advantage for businesses and communities province-wide.” Approved funding amounts and planned projects for the other 14 community airports are as follows: • Esterhazy, $50,890 for a beacon, windsock and runway crack sealing; • Humboldt, $63,980 for runway and taxiway crack repair, taxiway seal and apron reconstruction, engineering draining and grading plan; • Kindersley, $5,000 for pilot-controlled lighting system and runway lighting upgrade; • Kipling, $10,000 for engineering study to assess taxiway, runway and lighting systems; • Kyle, $49,500 for crack sealing; • Leader, $41,600 for taxiway and runway crack filling, asphalt repairs, repainting runway lines and beacon; • Maple Creek, $12,750 for resurfacing tarmac;

Investigation leads to drug bust
A joint drug investigation between the Saskatoon Integrated Drug Unit, Yorkton Provincial General Investigation Section, Yorkton Rural RCMP and Yorkton Traffic Services has wrapped up with drug charges being laid against a Yorkton resident.
On May 1, 2013, an investigation lead to a vehicle stop on Highway 16 near Theodore, Saskatchewan by the Yorkton Rural RCMP and Yorkton Traffic Services. Police seized approximately 21 pounds of marijuana from inside the vehicle along with drug parapherna-
lia. The driver, Clark Protz. has been charged with one count of possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking. Protz has been released before a Justice of the Peace on conditions to appear in Yorkton Court on June 24, 2013.

Goulden says she was pleased and surprised to receive the award from the TCYHA, and says that she has long been marketing visiting Yorkton using the Yellowhead. She says that being a major part of the TCYHA makes sense “Working with the communities that surround us, we have been fairly successful in using and branding the highway as the way to come into Yorkton,” she says. However, while it’s her name on the award, Goulden emphasizes that the work that she has done could not have been accomplished on her own. She says that the partners she works with are as important in what she does to help promote the Yellowhead. Currently the Saskatchewan Vice President, Goulden says that working with the TCYHA is an exciting environment, as she has the opportunity to work
with like-minded people from across Western Canada to promote the highway. She says she has travelled the length of the highway, and that confirms that what she’s doing with the association is worthwhile. “I truly believe that’s the most scenic way to travel across Western Canada.” Her work with the TCYHA continues with advocacy work, and Goulden says that one of the big things that she has been advocating is twinning the highway between Saskatoon and the Manitoba border, because the increases in highway traffic means it’s going to be important for safety. “We’re constantly advocating for a better road system, better signage, and a safer way to get people in and out of our communities.” She says that she’s excited about working on different ideas and working with other communities to make the Yellowhead the way to travel.

YFF launches with new film by local producer By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
LOCAL PRODUCER Terry Ortynsky (l) recently announced the Canadian premiere of his film Twice with the Yorkton Film Festival’s Randy Goulden. The film will screen on May 22, kicking off the festival.
Terry Ortynsky might be best known for selling cars in Yorkton, but he is also a film producer, and has worked on different films over the past few years. One of those films is Twice, a screening of which will open the Yorkton Film Festival on May 22. Twice is about a mysterious woman who comes into a small city and has to deal with her past, Ortynsky explains, which affects everyone who comes into the store. The title comes from the store where she works, which deals in antiques and used objects. “The film has a redemptive quality about it,” Ortynsky
Learn to Run with The Health Foundation By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Health Foundation’s annual Charity Road Race is an event that is open to all skill levels, but it might seem daunting to an amateur runner. That’s why the Learn to Run clinics were created, to help everyone from beginners to those running a half-marathon to learn, train and get ready for the event. Information Services Corporation (ISC) has returned to be the major sponsor for the clinics. They will contribute $2,500 to the event. Ashley Dopko, Communications Coordinator, ISC, says that they support the clinics because it is a worthy cause that fits ISC’s mandate for their community investment program. Dopko says ISC gives 1.5 percent of net income back to the community, focusing on activities and non-profit organizations that support life events, Saskatchewan growth and Saskatchewan history. They support the Health Foundation because they are also there for people during major life events, and the Learn to Run clinics in particular because it’s a positive way to help people in the community
improve their lives. Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation, says that the goal is to see the clinics continue to expand and grow into the future. Last year the clinics saw 79 people participate, and Fisher says that they hope to see more people taking up running this year.
Like last year, there will be three clinics. One for beginners, one for those running a 10km event, and those running a half marathon. Clinics run Tuesdays and Thursdays, and people can sign up through the month of May. They are free, and while people are encouraged to sign up for the
road race Fisher admits that it is not always possible. “The important thing is we want people to participate in the clinics,” Fisher says. This year’s Charity Road Race will raise money for diagnostic equipment for the Yorkton Regional Hospital.
– Ortynsky to hit the big screen says. The film is directed by Robert Fritz, who Ortynsky says he has known for 30 years. He says that the start of his interest in film was a workshop with Fritz, and he proposed making a film together three years ago. This will be the third film Ortynsky and Fritz have worked on, previous films being Akt 2 and Past Tense. Ortynsky was a hands-on producer, and he and Fritz collaborated on the music and the script for the production. Twice is also an appropriate name for the film as the production was filmed twice. Ortynsky says that the first shoot didn’t go
well, so they got a new cast and tried it a second time, which resulted in a much better film. While he admits that not everyone would associate him with the arts, he says that it’s a big part of his life and career outside of film as well. He notes that running a dealership requires creativity to make it work and get customers enthusiastic about the product. “I’ve always been creating. We’ve got a unique sales process which we created. I just took that over to film.” The event has limited capacity, and invites can be found at the Yorkton Film Festival office or Royal Honda and Royal Ford.

Mental health takes the focus The worrisome fact is, one in every five Canadians deals with a mental health condition yearly, which means that many Saskatchewan families are impacted, either directly or indirectly, by mental illness. Fortunately there is help out there and the province has committed to ensuring it’s available to all residents who are in need. Saskatchewan’s Health Minister Dustin Duncan has announced that an inter-ministerial action plan is being developed to address issues of mental health and addictions in the province. Duncan says a commissioner will be appointed in the coming weeks to lead the effort. A consultation phase will seek input from clients, stakeholders, advocates, leaders and front-line workers in the field of mental health and addictions to inform the action plan and better address the needs of clients and families across the province. The plan will cover a broad range of mental health and addictions issues including depression, anxiety and suicide as well as schizophrenia. “Improving mental health and addictions services is a priority for our government, and we recognize the need for a comprehensive, strategic, and collaborative approach for the province,” Duncan says. “We have a vision for making Saskatchewan the best place to live, work, get an education, start a family and build a life. In order to accomplish this vision and fulfill the bold goals set by the Saskatchewan Plan for Growth, we recognize we must move forward and make meaningful change for those affected by mental health and addictions issues.” It’s a stressful world we live in but there is support when and if you need it all you have to do is reach out.
Be careful Johnny it’s loaded As a parent, I have no idea how these people will ever be able to live with themselves after something like this. Who in their right mind gives a five year old a real gun as a gift? And worse than that, leaves the child unattended with it loaded in the presence of their two year old sister? Unbelievable. There are definite problems south of the border when it comes to firearms and their accessibility by the general public and this case not only draws more attention to that matter, it screams bad parenting. A five year old Kentucky boy recently shot and killed his two year old sister. It was an accident of course but my gosh it was an accident that never should have happened. The children’s mother was home at the time of the shooting, but she claims she only left the pair for a mere few minutes. A few minutes was enough time for the boy – who got the gun (a 22-calibur rifle) as a gift last year (that would make him four) from a corner in the room (where it was perched and loaded). Who knows what happened next but the gun went off and the little two year old is no longer of this earth. How tragic. Who leaves a loaded gun on the floor when there are toddlers about? WHO gives their BABIES loaded guns as gifts?
I grew up with a dad in the military. Along with my brothers he used to take us to the range where he taught us how to shoot and the importance of gun safety. There were always guns at home, which my dad used for hunting, but they were out in the open and Shannon Deveau never always safely locked and stowed away. It’s not that I’m an anti-gun person, its that I wonder what’s wrong with some people. The gun in question in this instance was made for kids. Apparently there’s a US company that specifically produces child size rifles and hunting gear. Its slogan is “my first rifle” and the goal they say is ‘to instill gun safety in the minds of youth shooters and to encourage them to gain the knowledge and respect that hunting and shooting activities require and deserve.’ I get that. But how young is TOO young? How can a four or five year old possibly grasp and retain all the information needed to handle a loaded firearm in a responsible manner while unattended? If you ask me there should be repercussions following what has happened. Should the gun manufacturer be held accountable? While there obviously needs to be more restrictions in place, I don’t think so. This comes down to poor parenting. What message are we sending if nothing happens in the aftermath?
The way I see it... Column
Will we have to move towns if it gets much wetter? I have retained precisely two things from my introduction to geology class. One, glaciers are like bank accounts. Two, flood planes are for floods, not houses. The first tidbit of information is not entirely relevant, but the second is, since every spring we have a new selection of stories on flooding in the province, and it’s time to consider if some places might not be the best choice for rebuilding. It’s actually a controversial take, just because for many people there is an emotional connection to their home and the land on which it sits. Even if it’s flooded every year, there’s still a compulsion to mold nature in order to keep the water away, rather than just give up and move to a place that is less prone to flooding. There’s the idea that the house is the natural part of the land, since it has been there for tens of years, instead of the water and land itself, which has been there for much longer. Still, Ontario is one province that is catching on to the problem. Many Ontario First Nations communities have been hit with flooding year after year, and millions have been spent on evacuation and temporary residences, and this year is no exception. New Democrat Gilles Bisson, MPP for Timmins James Bay, has suggested that it’s time to consider moving the communities, and he’s right. The problem is that so long as
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger floods repeatedly happen, the people of the communities are going to be fighting a losing battle. The water, indifferent to their pleas, is just going to come in and flood anyway. So, instead of the cycle of evacuating, rebuilding, and then starting again, there needs to be a way to just avoid the problem in the first place. That does, unfortunately, mean a lot of people are going to have to move away from their homes. They will get new ones, of course, but that emotional attachment to the old place will make it harder for them to move. At the risk of sounding cold, it needs to happen anyway, and relocating to a less flood-prone region is the only way to ensure their safety.
In Saskatchewan, we should watch closely to see if Bisson’s ideas come to pass and see what is going to happen if Ontario First Nations do get moved to higher ground. This is because our own weather is trending towards the wet, and into the future we will likely see more rain, more floods, and more people who are chased from their homes each year. It is soon going to be time to make some tough decisions, move people around, and possibly even abandon some towns to the water, moving the residents to higher ground. It’s not something that will be popular, but we have to think long-term. It is to the City of Yorkton’s credit that Brodie Ave. went from a residential street to a pond and a park, because it’s responding to a serious, repeated problem with water that the city faced. That’s just one street, however, and there are definitely entire towns in this province which were not built to withstand weather that is getting increasingly wet, increasingly often. I don’t know how challenging it was to convince people to move to a different street, but that’s going to be a much bigger problem if we have to move multiple streets, or entire communities. I am anticipating that as the province gets wetter, we’re going to have to ask those tough questions, and there will be places in the province that have to move.

Your letter of the Week
He surrenders on climate change
You should know the risks
To the Editor: Even though the world stopped warming 17 years ago, Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver has been finding himself in increasingly hot water of late. Besides having to absorb continual attacks from opposition MPs and climate campaigners, something anyone who leads his portfolio undoubtedly accepts as part of their job description, this week he was also condemned by both Canada’s and America’s best known climate scientists. First it was former NASA scientist James Hansen, one of the godfathers of the climate movement, who objected to Oliver labeling his assertions as “exaggerated rhetoric” and “nonsense”. In a CBC radio interview, Hansen proclaimed Oliver’s Conservatives as a “Neanderthal government on this issue” and “in the hip pocket of the fossil fuel industry.” Then it was Green Party of British Columbia Deputy Leader and University of Victoria climate modeler Andrew Weaver who Global News reported as accusing Oliver of “cherry-picking the data to support an argument”. But Oliver was right, at least insofar as Hansen’s and Weaver’s claims are concerned. It is nonsense to assert, as Hansen did in his New York Times commentary last year, that “If Canada proceeds [with oil sands development], it’s game over for the climate.” It doesn’t matter what you believe about the impact of carbon dioxide (CO2) on climate. Oliver correctly explained that the oil sands produce only about 1/1,000th of the world’s CO2 emissions and so the project couldn’t possibly have the impact Hansen fears. Oliver also correctly cited Weaver when he asserted that the modeler forecast that burning 100 per cent of known oil sands “proven reserves” would result in a trivial temperature change – 0.03 degrees Celsius. The fact that Weaver does not
like the way his calculations are being used does not change the fact that he made them. But Oliver’s statements are not nearly enough to defuse opposition to the Keystone XL pipeline or the oil sands. After all, opponents to the projects are focused on the belief that increasing CO2 emissions from the oil sands, something that is bound to occur as more pipelines are built, is moving us closer to climate Armageddon.
“It is analogous to a doctor telling a patient they need to lose weight while also encouraging them to eat more fattening foods.” Climate campaigners say that it is illogical for the government to lobby on behalf of the oil sands, one of the most CO2intensive energy sources on the planet, while also lecturing us about the importance of reducing those same emissions. It is analogous to a doctor telling a patient they need to lose weight while also encouraging them to eat more fattening foods. Global warming alarmists are right on this point of logic even though they are wrong about climate science. If humanity’s emissions were causing dangerous global warming, then we should set an example by trying to cut back, not grow, projects that emit large volumes of CO2, as the oil sands clearly do. Using their current approach, the Government has ceded the moral high ground to pipeline and oil sands opponents. While the Conservatives come across as practical due to their focus on
energy security, jobs and wealth creation, they also appear immoral to the many people who still believe that CO2-induced climate change is the most serious threat to our future. In contrast, climate activist pipeline opponents, while often seen as impractical by those who understand our energy needs, appear highly moral to many in the public and the press. This is a serious problem for pipeline boosters since the authorities who must approve Keystone XL – U.S. President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry – are apparently more concerned about environmental morality than by practicalities of economics and energy security. This was shown in their Earth Day statements in which both focused mostly on climate change, not reducing air, land and water pollution. Obama’s on-going drive to destroy coal – America’s cheapest and most abundant energy source – due to its hypothesized climate impact also makes his priorities clear. So Oliver and other oil sands proponents must help the public understand that the fundamental premise of the global warming movement is unjustified. The science is too immature to know the future of climate and climate control will remain science fiction for the foreseeable future. Canceling valuable projects to try to “stop climate change” is therefore irresponsible. The Canadian government is currently trying to eat their cake and have it too by boosting two hopelessly incompatible policies at the same time – reducing CO2 emissions to supposedly stop climate change and promoting oil sands expansion. Since the oil sands have immense value to Canada and the world and the climate scare is based on a faulty interpretation of the science, it is clear which policy must be sacrificed. Tom Harris, Frontier Centre for Public Policy.
Land, labour, management and gov’t To the Editor: To the Four Factors of Production – Land, Labour, Capital and Management – Government must now be added as a Fifth. The utilization of land resources, the investment of capital, the employment of labour by management aiming to maximize profits through imports and hiring of foreign labour are supported by the current Federal Government as responding to globalization. The current tempo-
rary workers are replacing Canadians. In time these positions, by my reading, will be offshored completely “After being trained, most of the new workers will leave Canada within about three months,” though Hirji couldn’t confirm where in the world they will be working. This loss of employment to Canadians adds to the uncounted thousands already displaced. Technological advances are enabling corporations to replace Canadian workers – not because they are un-
available and not on a temporary but permanent basis. This, together with the export of manufacturing employment, benefits the corporation owners and management with higher profits and incomes. This question has not been addressed: The point will be reached, through the export of manufacturing and service positions, where lack of earned income reduces the capacity of labour income funded consumption to the point of necessitating in-
creased dependency on government. On government unprepared to tax corporation profits, the sole remaining source of income. Oh, the questions. Is the statement above accurate? Have studies been undertaken as to when the point will be reached and the options open both then and now to a Canada where both manufacturing and service jobs are substantially permanently off shore? Joe Hueglin, Niagra Falls ON.
Where does Breitkreuz stand on wasteful mailings? To the Editor: Word is out that Conservatives plan to use your tax dollars to mail their juvenile propaganda against Justin Trudeau to your home. Will MP Garry Breitkreuz sink to that level? The answer is in the mail. By now you’ve probably seen the TV commercials. In them, the Conservatives use out-of-context fabrications and falsehoods to try to smear the new Liberal leader. Liberals instead are responding with a positive campaign that
introduces Canadians to the real Justin Trudeau, focused on his plans to fight for middle-class families and for all those who are working so hard to join the middle-class. But Conservatives plan to use their Parliamentary mailing and printing privileges to put their ugly message in taxpayer-funded pamphlets to be distributed across the country. This is a gross misuse of tax dollars that should be going toward constructive public discussion of public issues, not partisan character assassination.
At least 19 Conservative backbenchers have had the courage to reject this wasteful and dishonest abuse. They say it’s beneath their standards. But what about your MP? Mr. Breitkreuz has a choice—he can choose to say no to Stephen Harper and refuse to clutter your mailbox with this abusive material, or knuckle under. Which will it be? Ralph Goodale MP, Deputy Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada.
To the Editor: According to recent polling by the Canadian Red Cross, nearly one in 10 Canadians have been subject to an evacuation order due to a disaster. Disasters can strike at any time, without warning. This week is Emergency Preparedness week, sponsored by Stantec in Saskatchewan, an annual awareness campaign to encourage Canadians to be better prepared to deal with disasters and emergencies. We urge Canadians to know the risks and find out what disasters they are most likely to experience where they live. Contact your local authorities or your local Red Cross branch and ask questions, take notes, and know what to do. More than a quarter of Canadians who say they haven’t taken steps to prepare in the event of a disaster say it’s because they do not believe one will happen in their area. This is despite the fact that every province and territory in Canada experienced disasters last year. The Canadian Red Cross responded to more than 2,300 separate disasters across the country, including everything from house fires to wildfires, floods, landslides, hurricanes and power outages. Canadians need to be aware that an emergency doesn’t necessarily mean something like Hurricane Sandy. For instance, just over 40 per cent of Canadians say they have experienced a loss of electricity for more than 72 hours. This is the most commonly reported disaster experienced by Canadians. In addition to knowing the risks, the Red Cross recommends Canadians make a plan, and build or buy an emergency preparedness kit. Canadians should be prepared to care for themselves and their families for a minimum of 72 hours in a disaster, or up to two weeks in a health emergency. The Canadian Red Cross supports national and local health authorities with emergency preparedness and response activities. In the event of a large health emergency or pandemic, the Canadian Red Cross is ready to provide support to communities based on agreements with various public authorities and the current needs. This may include supporting public messaging on prevention and preparedness or providing direct support to Canadians who are unable to leave their homes during the emergency. For more information on how to help you take care of yourself and your loved ones during an emergency, visit www.redcross.ca/prepare.

Reviewing the TFWP From its inception, the goal of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) has been to fill a genuine and acute labour need here in Canada. Recently, however, Canadians – including many within the constituency of Yorkton-Melville – have raised concerns about the TFWP. They have observed that some employers are using it to replace Canadians with workers from outside. The government’s intention has always been, and still is, that Canadian workers must be given priority when filling available jobs. Displacing our own citizens was never the intent of the program. In Economic Action Plan 2013, we committed to launch a review of the TFWP. We have done that, and are moving quickly to identify and correct problems that may stop qualified Canadian workers from getting jobs. In the days to come, the government will also hold consultations across the country with business, industry and trade organizations, so they can give us input on these and other changes to the program. Here are some of the actions we’re taking now: • Effective immediately, employers are required to pay temporary foreign workers the same wage as they would pay Canadian workers – we have removed the flexibility in the existing wage structure. • We are also temporarily preventing the accelerated processing of Labour Market Opinions (LMOs) and asking additional questions to ensure that when employers bring in additional foreign workers, no Canadian workers are displaced as a result of outsourcing. • We are mandating that companies produce a solid plan to transition from the use of foreign workers to Canadians – that means training Canadians if necessary. We don’t want temporary foreign workers to become permanent fixtures and long-term solutions. • We are introducing fees for employers for the processing of LMOs, and we will increase the cost of work permits so that our taxpayers are no longer subsidizing the cost. • We will also make English and French the

Submitted by Regional KidsFirst No matter what your child is involved in, praising them regularly is very important. Praise will encourage your child to continue to excel at whatever event they are working on. This can be something like painting a picture or riding a sheep! As long as you are there to keep encouraging your child, your child will be bound for success. Ways to Praise your child: • Wow • Way to go • Great • Spectacular • You are so exciting • Beautiful work • Terrific • Awesome • You brighten my Day When you praise your child, they feel good about themselves and have a strong sense of belonging. Even if your child seems to struggle at a task, encouraging words and praise are necessary. Phrases such as “Keep going, you almost got it”, or “you are doing awesome, we will keep trying” are great ways to encourage children to keep giving 100%. Regardless of the age of your child, praise is a warming feeling that helps children succeed and keep working to improve their skills. Benefits of praising children include: • Developing will power • Encourage positive self-image and behavior • Develop self-confidence. • The following link is an example of both mom and dad praising their two-year-old daughter... http://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=2cNwD96sVos

SKILLS – Students from Sacred Heart High School recently travelled to Saskatoon to compete at the Provincial Skills Competition. Those in attendance had the opportunity to compete in various trade and technology areas against other students from across the province. The competition allows students the opportunity to see post-secondary options and gives them the chance to learn more within there chosen area. Some students also had the opportunity to showcase the talents that they have learned in high school. Competing from Sacred Heart were: Lindsay Villeneuve for Esthetics and her model Erin Casey; Chelsey Yesnik and Calic Tolentino for Mechanical CADD; Robotics Team #1 consisted of Austin Varga, Landon Hickie, Zac Todos and Aaron Fulawka; Robotics Team #2 consisted of Nick Kerr, Daniel McCoshen, Keyan Wasylenchuk and Evan LaJambe; Brett Skaluba for Graphic Design; and for Welding Alex Fedorchuk and Jared Buzinski. Robotics Team #1 placed 4th out of 14 teams after their robot was damaged and unable to compete in the bronze match. Robotics Team #2 placed 6th. Brett Skaluba worked extremely hard winning the Bronze medal in Graphic Design. “I would like to congratulate the entire Saints Skills Team for all the time they put in before and during the competition. This is a great opportunity for students to find career choices in trade and technology areas. I would like to thank Apperley Electric who sponsored our Robotics team this year. Assistance in these expensive programs goes a long way,” says coordinator Curtis Moen.

Bacon adds flavour
For those of you who have not yet heard, bacon is not just a breakfast side dish. Although greatly feared by vegetarians and dieters alike, bacon is a wonderfully versatile addition to numerous recipes for increased flavour complexity. The versatility I’m referring to extends further than the use of the rendered fat to fry your eggs in. The inclusion of bacon in recipes has matured greatly from those archaic past uses. Salads are a great example of this. Heaven forbid that the first thing entering your mind is “simulated bacon flavoured bits” reminiscent of antiquated salad bars. True flavour comes from real genuine bacon strips fried until crispy and crumbled. Many salads today that are garnished with bacon are often complimented with other contrasting flavours such as fresh fruit and berries, for example. Even warm dressings can be made with the leftover bacon fat in place of the oil. Just add an acidic ingredient such as wine vinegar, and other supporting flavours, to capture the essence of a classic dressing. Many soups are also improved with the inclusion of bacon. The depth of flavour gained by this simple addition is incredible, as long as moderation is practiced. A complimenting flavour should always be in the background, and never the main attraction, of a dish. The rendered fat can also be utilized in the making of a thickening roux if suitable. A roux (pronounced “roo”) is a mixture of equal parts of fat and flour by weight used to thicken soups or sauces. However, the incorporation of bacon is definitely not limited to just salads and soups, as it can be included in almost any savoury recipe. Most of the bacon that we purchase from our butcher, or presliced in 500g packages, is obtained from the belly of the pig. This can be identified by the considerable amount of fat content. Back bacon however is fairly lean and meaty, and is aptly named from its origin. All bacon is quite salty as it is always salt cured or brined and usually smoked. Thus the practice of seasoning a dish that incorporates bacon should be mostly reserved until the end of the cooking process. For years, bacon has also been used in protecting other meats from drying out during the cooking process. Lean meats and sometimes seafood are wrapped in a
Chef Dez on Cooking by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com bacon barrier prior to cooking. The fatty consistency is perfect for supplying enough juices to keep these main entrées moist and flavourful. There are obvious health concerns to an over abundant consumption of bacon in our daily diets, and controlled temperance should be practiced. This being said, Elvis Presley’s favorite accompanying sauce with his biscuits was “red-eye gravy”. This is made by adding a cup of black coffee to the rendered fat from a pound of bacon. Dear Chef Dez: I have come across a chicken recipe that lists “lardons” as one of the ingredients, can you tell me what this is?
Craig C. Abbotsford, BC Dear Craig: Lardons is a French culinary term for bacon that has been diced, blanched, and fried. The blanching process is performed to partially precook the bacon and to eliminate some of the fat content before adding it to a recipe.

the latest hospital fashion with flexible slippers, a shirt with no back, and a flimsy robe. Well at least it covered all the essential parts. We were sitting in the waiting room looking like we were advertising hospital fashions! The nurse that did the paperwork told me that the procedure only takes about ten minutes, and then I would be rolled into her room where I would spend about thirty minutes to get rid of all the air that they would pump into me during the procedure. She warned me not to be embarrassed as I would be doing a lot of burping and farting to get rid of all that air. I suggested that they should have some music accompaniment with that, like some drum rolls and such! Then it was my turn, they hooked up an iv, made me lay on my side with my glorious rear end sticking out for the nurses and doctor to admire (jealousy gets you nowhere doc). I got sedated and they started the procedure. Now I know how the Muppets feel. Then I woke up in the recovery room to the sound of thunder and rushing air, with the bed cover fluttering by my feet! Followed by the loudest and longest burp I’ve ever made. I vaguely remember what took place, but I have no unpleasant memory. Apparently they include some memory blocker in the drip.

The passing of a close friend and the cancer diagnosis of a close relative, prompted me to get a thorough checkup, so after consulting with my doctor, I was referred to a specialist who ordered a colonoscopy. Today is Thursday and the procedure is supposed to take place tomorrow; therefore my innards have to be purged today. Apparently the doctor wants the inside of my intestines to be spit and polish squeaky clean! That is done medically with a very, no make that an extremely strong laxative, nicknamed Janitors in a Pouch. I can imagine this tiny little crew of sewage specialists, dressed in coveralls, equipped with breathing apparatus, carrying scrub brushes, rags and squeezes, starting at the top and working their way through this dark and dreary tunnel system, giving themselves high fives for a job well done as they exit at the other end! The pharmacist suggested that I make sure to have unobstructed access to the bathroom at any time, and he also suggested that I hang out very, very close to the bathroom for most of the day. I took the first dosage pouch this morning, and I’m now waiting for
it to take effect, which is supposed to be anywhere from 3 to 4 hours. I’m supposed to take a second and final dosage this afternoon. It will be interesting to see how this will work. Well, the three to four hours came and went, and I was wondering if this was going to work at all. I took my second prescribed dosage, and was minding my own business when I all of a sudden got this great urge to visit the bathroom. It was in the nick of time too! What followed can only be described as a volcanic outburst, complete with rumblings and flowing lava. One fierce blast with red hot lava! The lingering burning sensation to the part of my body where this occurred made me think that I have to rewrite the lyrics to the Johnny Cash song Ring of Fire! Then half an hour later, a repeat performance! I scared the horses when I ran out into the yard afterwards sans pants and parked my burning butt in a snow pile to cool it off! The dogs didn’t want to come near me either! It appears that the Janitors in a Pouch Crew do their job section by section, and they splash a copious amount of hot liquid cleanser to flush each section clean!

Terriers fall one game short of RBC Cup By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer One game short. One goal short. That is how the 2012/13 Yorkton Terriers ended on Sunday night as Michael Fredrick’s heroics in goal shutout the Terriers offense and sent the boys home one game short of qualifying for the Royal Bank Cup with a tough 1-0 loss to the Brooks Bandits that saw Yorkton muster some solid scoring chances that just couldn’t find the back of the goal. A tough end to a season that saw the Terriers come together as a group and overcome tough obstacles along the way to beat the defending SJHL Champion Humboldt Broncos on their way to their first Canalta Cup since the 2005/06 season. After starting the Western Canada Cup with two wins, locking up the first
spot in the knockout round, the Terriers dropped their final two games of the round robin to the Bandits and the Surrey Eagles with a tough 2-1 overtime loss to Brooks and a 3-1 loss to the Eagles the Terriers found themselves in the difficult position of needing to beat the host Nanaimo Clippers in the 3/4 page playoff round and the loser of the Eagles/Bandits game in the Western Canada Cup title game to advance to the RBC Cup in Summerside, PEI. That task was made even harder as the Terriers went down 2-0 early in the first period against the Clippers. An early cross checking penalty from Tayler Thompson lead to two quick goals from Nanaimo as Greg Fraser and Chris Rygus were quick to pounce on the opportunity and the Terriers were left reeling with the task of coming down from a 2-0 hole against the
host Clippers, a new challenge for a Terriers team that has been coming back from the brink since their 2-1 deficit in the Canalta Cup to come back from. Jeremy Johnson would once again help his Terriers get back into the game, sending a highlight reel assist to Tyler Giebel from on the ice to put the game within one going into the second period, erasing the damage the Terriers early lapse caused and giving Yorkton an easily manageable one goal deficit heading into the second period. That deficit was quickly erased as in the second period the Terriers tied the game up as a great cycle by Nathan Murray led to a Devon McMullen goal off a deflection in front of the net on Patrick Martens shot from the slot.

YRHS’ Dalton Fichtner commits to the U of R Rams By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After a year that saw Dalton Fichtner carry the Yorkton Regional High School Sr. Raiders football team to its first league championship game in nearly a decade in an MVP season, Dalton Fichtner became the first Raider off this year’s team to commit to a post secondary program, staying in province and going the CIS route with the University of Regina Rams, cracking their 60 man roster this past weekend. Fichtner starred as a quarterback for the Raiders, who were the best offensive team in the Moose Jaw High School Football League and Fichtner’s skills behind the pocket were a large part of their run from middle of the pack in the RIFL to the MJHSFL Championship Game in their first year as his strong arm and mobility gave the Raiders a dynamic offense, but Fichtner won’t be a pocket specialist at the University of Regina as the school put him on the roster as a defensive back, a position he is still learning as he goes. “We used Dalton at defensive back last season because he was a phenomenal athlete and those assets required us to play him at quarterback but he was solid in coverage as well,” explains Raider head coach Roby Sharpe.

Terriers season ends at the hands of the Bandits
Dakota Odgers broke through for his first goal of the WCC after lighting up the SJHL Playoffs shortly after, taking advantage of a turnover created in the Clippers zone to beat Jayson Argue backhand to give the Terriers a 3-2 lead, turning the tables around after the Clippers early barrage with two quick goals of their own. Dakota’s marker to give the Terriers the lead would be short lived though, as his brother John was assessed a slashing penalty that the Clippers potent powerplay made no mistake on as Josh Bryan’s shot from the point was lost in traffic by Dawson MacAuley and tied the game, sending things into the third period with tensions at an all time

high with both teams twenty minutes away from seeing their seasons end two wins short with a loss. Fifteen minutes of dicey hockey would be played in the third before we would see a goal with MacAuley and Argue making some incredible saves, including a highlight reel glove save in the butterfly from Argue to rob a Brady Norrish slapshot before the Terriers would break through to grab the game winner. A lucky bounce from a hard rush to the net from Kailum Gervais would see the puck in the back of the net and the Terriers off to the final RBC Cup qualification game. Jeremy Johnson would rip a wrist shot over Argue’s shoulder late to make it official and the Terriers comeback would be complete as Yorkton would hold on to a

5-3 win. The late goals from Gervais and Johnson would see the Terriers first line combination lift the Terriers to a character win over the Clippers after falling down 2-0 and blowing their 3-2 lead, giving them some serious momentum as they awaited the results of the Championship between Surrey and Brooks to find out who would be in their way of the RBC Cup. That opponent would be the team they took to overtime in the round robin, the two time AJHL Champion Brooks Bandits, who lost 4-1 to the Surrey Eagles in the Western Canada Cup Championship. The Bandits outshot the Eagles 41-30 in the final, but WCC Top Goalie Michael Santaguida took all of the spotlight

in the winner, robbing the Bandits with 40 saves and doing his part in what was a commanding 4-1 win for the Eagles who led all the way from 9:20 of the first period. Brooks had a weird tournament, from coming in with a 54-4-4 record, to losing 7-2 to the host Clippers, to their 4-1 loss to the Eagles the Bandits had been equalized and humbled heading into their meeting with the Terriers in what was a very competitive tournament between the top teams in Western Canada. Yet the Bandits would pose a serious threat to the Terriers as winners of their previous contest in a 2-1 overtime thriller setting the stage for what was going to be a very hard fought and intense battle.

Terriers SJHL Championship season comes to close Cont. from Page 11/12 The pragmatic play of the first meeting between the Bandits and the Terriers carried over to the opening period of Sunday’s contest, with both teams doing whatever it took to ward off any easy scoring chances with their seasons on the line, the first period ended scoreless with the Terriers outshooting the Bandits 10-7. It wasn’t without some serious saves from MacAuley and Fredrick however as Dakota Mason was robbed by MacAuley on a golden chance in the opening half of the first period and the Terriers hit the post twice in the first period as both teams had some chances to put themselves ahead, but could not sneak the puck past two very hot goaltenders in the opening twenty minutes of play. Low scoring would continue in the second period, as even after receiving the game’s first powerplay to start the second period, the Terriers just could not find the back of the net to take the lead with the first goal. Dawson MacAuley would come up big to keep the game scoreless early in the period, making a big stop after Chase Norrish turned the puck over to Cam Maclise right in front of
the not, denying the Bandits leading scorer of the crucial first goal. It wouldn’t be long before Brooks finally got the game’s first goal as a puck throwing haphazardly at the goal with traffic in front and behind MacAuley squeaked past the goalie giving Mark Logan his only goal of the tournament and a 1-0 lead for the Bandits who would hold a massive upperhand for the rest of the game with the hot play of their goaltender Michael Fredrick. Fredrick’s dominance in between the pipes would continue when Patrick Martens was robbed by the streaking goaltender with a wide open cage late in the second period, stealing the Terriers best chance to tie the game. A similar story unfolded in the third as the battle efforts of both teams to get in front of pucks in the shooting lanes and to play disciplined two way hockey kept scoring chances low. Despite their best efforts to throw traffic in front of Fredrick, the Terriers could not create the offense to beat Fredrick who was on the top of his game. Jeremy Johnson nearly found the magic one last time in the game’s final moments, but the puck hit the post like it did so often on Sunday, a cruel fate for a
KAILUM GERVAIS celebrates the game winning goal over the Nanaimo Clippers to send the Terriers to play the Brooks Bandits where they went on to lose 1-0, ending their season. (Photo Courtesy of Nanaimo Daily News) Terriers team that outplayed the Bandits for lengthy stretches in a very even game, one that decided an entire season for both teams on a puck that barely squeaked past MacAuley with traffic in front of the net to send Brooks to the RBC Cup and the Terriers back home to reflect on what was still a great season for the SJHL Champs.
The loss itself is one that is hard to digest, the Terriers after all played a great game in the loss to Brooks, outshooting the Bandits 23-20. They executed their gameplan to perfection, kept all of the scoring chances away just like they wanted, stayed out of the penalty box, got players in front of the net, but as is so common in hockey they just could not beat
the goaltender of the moment in Michael Fredrick. Losing to the back to back AJHL Champions, a team that was ranked #1 in the CJHL Power Rankings week after week after week during the regular season and the playoffs and giving that team a run for their money in two tightly contested, some would say classic meetings is something that
the Terriers and their fans should hold their heads highly about. Playing in the lesser regarded SJHL, where scholarships to NCAA schools are harder to come by the Terriers showed that Saskatchewan Jr. A hockey has tons of talent as well, with Brady Norrish being named top defenseman.

CJFL squads in the Okanagan Sun and the Kamloops Broncos, where he will be challenging for starting positions in his first year. “Layne Hull is in BC right now weighing his options and visiting camps and programs in Kelowna (Sun) and in Kamloops, and he is being told that he will be competing for a starting role in his first year, which would be huge for his career so he is waiting for a decision, but he should be playing some-

With talented players like Fichtner and Hull leaving the Raiders high powered defensive and offensive corps next season, the Raiders will need to replace two players who will be leaving huge shoes to fill, but the Raiders will be prepared, they only graduated a handful of players last year. “Losing great football players and teammates like Layne and Dalton
will be tough and their accomplishments speak to the strength of our program, but we have a lot of returning boys for next fall and we expect to be strong and a contending team in the league and in the province next year,” closes Sharpe. The Raiders will start spring camp this week before playing super scrimmages with Brandon and Winnipeg Vincent Massey to end the month concluding their spring schedule.

Celebrating 130 Years of Bringing Family & Friends Together 1970 - 1977 A NEW COMPLEX FOR THE CITY OF YORKTON Donna Taylor ~author~ A new secretary manager was hired by the Board in early 1970 - William Winnitowy began at the beginning of February at a monthly salary of $500. He would continue in the position until the reorganization of staffing under the Management Board of the Agriplex, which saw Don Miskiman take over the position in late 1977. The buildings and grounds continued to be improved and repaired as necessary. In 1971 water was installed to the ladies’ and mens’ washrooms in the Industrial Building, and at the barns as well. Finances really turned around in these few years. 1971 showed a deficit of a little over $2,000. 1972 records a profit of almost $9,000, the fairs of 1973 and 74 showed profits of about $27,000 each year, and 1976 and 77’s fairs turned profits of $39,000 and $40,000 respectively. Land was sold to A & W in 1970, in part because of the Association’s financial state, but a request from McDonald’s for land in 1973 was turned down. Yorkton Exhibition Association President, Gerald Grunert, presides at the President’s Dinner, held November 19, 1977, one of the first events to be held in the newly built Parkland Agriplex. Midways continued to be contracted through the Western Canada Fair Association, with 1970’s midway including a Balloon Tent and two Girlie Shows (details unfortunately not available). A new ride called the Sky Ride, which had been greatly anticipated, was not available as it had been damaged at the Weyburn fair. By the close of 1977, the Board had given notice to the W.C.F.A. that they would leave the association after the 1978 season, and begin contracting for midways on their own. The first beer garden was held in 1972, with beer being sold between the hours of 2 and 7 pm for 40¢ a bottle. A request from Crown Amusements in 1972 to operate a casino was turned down, as the Board was not interested in such things. The A.C.T. continued to host the Travellers Day Parade, with the 1970 parade including 50 units. The annual grant to the A.C.T. from the Association was increased from $300 to $400 in 1971. Entertainment in these years included the Rhythm Pals in 1976 at a cost of $7500 for three shows, and Susan Jacks in 1974 as a joint venture with CJGX. Susan Jacks was very popular, with the committee reporting more people coming in through the fence than through the gates. After many years without a rodeo, in 1972 the Board took a chance on Brown West Rodeo Co, signing on for a three day Rodeo and two days of Chuckwagons at a cost of $12,000. Yorkton’s Mayor, Allan Bailey, presided at the official opening,

which was followed by the crowning of the Rodeo Queen. Admission was $2 for reserved seating and $1.50 for rush seats, but the following year admissions were raised by 50¢. The Farm Boys and Girls camps started the decade as popular as ever, but by 1976 the numbers had dropped to 39 girls and 33 boys, from highs of approximately 100 for each camp. In 1977, the Board decided to discontinue the camps and look into other activities for youth. The Board of the Exhibition Association was a supporter of many community endeavors. The Board offered to make property available for both the new Western Development Museum and the Kinsmen Arena - although neither of these facilities actually built on the Fair Grounds, the offer is a sign of the Board’s desire to assist in any way possible. The biggest focus of the early 1970s was the proposed building project, which had been kicked around since 1961. The plans for what was called a Civic Activities Centre in the 1960s evolved into discussion of a Multi Purpose Complex by the 1970s. The Exhibition Board was required to take a major role for this project to proceed. Not only were they prepared to provided the land for the facility, there were government loans for buildings of this nature which could only be accessed by them. The City of Yorkton very much needed the Exhibition Association if plans for the new facility were to come to fruition. In 1971 the Board instigated further discussion with the City of Yorkton on this matter, and by May of 1972, the Exhibition’s president, Gerald Grunert, was reporting back to the Exhibition Board that the building and development committee was in
the process of selecting a firm to prepared the Master Plan and Conceptual Design. The cost was to be approximately $4,800 and the City was only prepared to pay half. The Curling Club had promised to contribute $500, the R.M. of Wallace had offered $300. So the Exhibition Association proceeded to hire Keith Consulting of Regina to prepare the plans, knowing that the balance of the bill would be theirs. Keith Consulting presented their proposal in September of 1971, with two possible sites for construction - at the north end of the grounds, or west of the grandstand. The minutes of the directors’ meeting of September 19 show “the City is awaiting our next move and that it is up to us to decide if we should proceed with the building”. The initial decision on whether the City of Yorkton would build an Agriplex belonged to the Yorkton Exhibition Association. Mayor Bailey appeared at the Association’s annual meeting to explain that the project would need the approval of the Local Government Board and the taxpayers of Yorkton, and the cost would likely be between $800,000 and $1 million dollars. A resolution was thereupon passed by the shareholders, authorizing the directors of the Exhibition Board to borrow up to $1 million dollars for the purpose of constructing a complex on the fair grounds, with authority to mortgage the property. In early 1974, G. Grunert, L. Muir, G. Erhardt and J. Caudle were named as committee members of the Yorkton Exhibition Association to deal with the issue of the proposed complex. As costs were rising, the approved amount for the directors to borrow was increased to $2 million. The committee recommended to the Board that the Exhibition Association
proceed with construction of the complex, and apply for federal government loans for the building, on conditions which included the Exhibition Association being allowed free use of the facilities for all their normal operations for a period of 99 years. Progress on the complex was slow, and in April of 1975 the Board was finally presented a draft agreement with the City of Yorkton. There is immediate concern on the part of the directors with respect to the difference in representation by the Exhibition Association and the City of Yorkton on the Management Board of the facility, which gives effective control of decision making to the city. At the Association’s annual meeting at the end of 1975, President Gerald Grunert reports that the complex project is at a standstill. The shareholders suggest that the Board consider the possibility of starting the project on a limited scale on its own. A motion is made for the Board to investigate construction of a building for curling facilities and the needs of the Yorkton Exhibition Association. The minutes of February of 1976 record a final agreement has been reached with the City on the complex, which will be presented to the Local Government Board for approval, and then to the taxpayers of Yorkton by way of a bylaw vote. In April of that year the Board actually signs the agreement with the City, and by June of that year the Management Board has taken over operations - receiving all rental income and paying operating expenses. Work on the complex begins March 1, 1977 with a completion date of late October of the same year. At the same time, the Exhibition Association begins work on the Agripavilion, at a cost of approximately $170,000. The Board has $110,000 in the bank to put toward the project, and the rest is financed through the Management Board. The Association is doing well financially at this time, and manages a payment of $25,000 to the City in August of that year, and another of $15,000 in December. Construction goes quickly, with the official opening of the Agripavilion coinciding with the Livestock Donors Sale held July 20, 1977. The official opening of the complex, a joint venture of the City of Yorkton and the Yorkton Exhibition Association, happens right on schedule - October 28 and 29 of 1977. The name of the building, the Parkland Agriplex, was the result of a naming contest instituted by the Management Board. As that body had budgeted only $500 for the contest, and allocated it all to advertising, the Exhibition Board once again stepped up to the plate and provided $150 for prizes.
THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, May 9, 2013 - Page 15A
Closing reflections on the 2012/13 Terriers season Cont. from Pages 11/13
Norrish was also named to the AllWCC team, while last year player Jeremy Johnson was tied for the tournament lead in goals and Tyler Giebel finished tied for the tournament’s top scorer with two goals and six assists, giving the Terriers front end talent that competed with the best in Western Canada for a team that competed to the very end of a tournament that had some of the best teams in Canada on display. At the end of the day the Terriers will go down as champions when the 2012/13 season is looked back upon in future years, they brought Yorkton its first title since 2005/06 with a season worthy of a championship. They rarely lost at home at the FAA and treated their paying fans to a full effort every night. The nature of
junior hockey will mean that the last game the Terriers played this year will be a loss, but everyone on the team will remember their Game Six win over the Broncos at the Farrell Agencies Arena where they hoisted the league championship. Sure the RBC Cup was a goal, but the Terriers went up against the best teams in Western Canada for a week and a half and ended with a 3-3 record after giving the #1 ranked team in Canada all it could handle for two games plus overtime, they should hold their heads high. With no Anavet Cup every team at the first ever Western Canada Cup was presented with a new, very difficult task in beating four of the top teams in Western Canada and the Terriers would have been matched up with the Steinbach Pistons in the old Anavet Cup, a situation that
would have seen the Terriers as massive favorites over a Pistons team that did not win one game at the 2013 Western Canada Cup. Yet there will be no excuses coming from the Terriers players, who are proud of their accomplishments in the 2012/13 season. A team that grew from a bitter exit to the hated Millionaires a year before and turned into the best team in Saskatchewan with a regular season conference title and revenge over the hated Millionaires by winning Game Six in their rivals own barn to win the Sherwood Division title before taking out the defending champion Broncos and former #1 WHL Bantam Draft pick Alex Forsberg in the final, that should not be forgotten. The Terriers will lose the services of some crucial players next season. Jeremy Johnson’s career in Yorkton
13052DS03
hockey will come to a close as well as John Neibrandt’s as the two Yorkton area products join fellow 1992 born players Nathan Murray, Austin Bourhis, Patrick Martens, and Brenden Poncelet as players whose Jr. careers will come to an end as 20 year olds. The obvious loss will be in the size and scoring department as Murray was the team’s leading regular season scorer and combined with Bourhis and Neibrandt made up for most of the Terriers size on the roster while snipers Martens/Johnson will also be missed for their timely clutch goals. Next season is an afterthought after such a lengthy season, but the Yorkton Terriers will regroup in the summer where questions will be answered as the Terriers look to defend the Canalta Cup, hoping to match a special 2012/13 team.
Page 16A - THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, May 9, 2013
Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement shows absence of the one club coach This morning across the pond (very early morning on our side of the pond in Saskatchewan) the biggest news in the sporting world for May 8, 2013 unfolded. Sir Alex Ferguson is planning on stepping down from his perch as Manchester United manager, effectively ending one of the greatest runs as a coach/manager of a major sports franchise of all time. 26 years. 13 English Premier League titles. 10 FA Community Shields. 5 FA Cups. 4 League Cups. 2 Champions League titles. All while taking a Manchester United team that was constantly second fiddle to former English giant Liverpool in the darkest days of English football when Magaret Thatcher was effectively trying to kill the game through politics to the top of the footballing world to the point where Manchester United is the most popular club in the world over the likes of the New York Yankees and any popular North American club you can think of. When Sir Alex Ferguson took over United in 1987, English teams were in the process of being banned from the Champions League and the English game appeared to be slowly crumbling due to wide scale violence and the old English first division was behind the curve in attracting foreign stars behind the Italian Serie A. Ferguson set the standard for the change in the English league, bringing in early foreign transfer stars like striker Eric Cantona and keeper Peter Schmeichel to the EPL as focal points of the beginnings of United squads that would dominate the English game and build the club into the iconic franchise it is today. From the humble beginnings at Old Trafford, Ferguson was along for the ride that saw the
EPL become the biggest sports league in the world, a worldwide phenomenon that has seen a domestic league in a sport that has one in nearly every major country, to becoming a juggernaut, even becoming one of North America’s most popular sports leagues despite being across the Atlantic Ocean and having the bulk of its games kicking off at eight in the morning. Still even with the growth of the EPL and teams like Chelsea and Manchester City spending like mad year after year and United’s pocketbook getting smaller and smaller due to ownership issues with the bankrupt Glazer family, Ferguson has never stopped winning. This year after seeing their hated rivals across the way in Manchester City spend their way to their first title on the final day of the EPL season, Ferguson got his final revenge, leading the Red Devils to their 20th English first division title, a record and doing it convincingly as United has had the title wrapped up for weeks with the EPL season coming to a close on May 19. Ferguson obviously has had his share of detractors, from the people who only say he won because of the money, or the referees were in his back pocket, but at the end of the day Sir Alex Ferguson should be remembered as one of the last true iconic coaches of one team over a long period of time, something you rarely see at the professional level. For instance, Phil Jackson, head coach of Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and Dennis Rodman didn’t even last ten years as head coach with the Chicago Bulls and he needed two stints when he coached the Los Angeles Lakers in his second stint as a title winning head coach. The

Ruttig’s rants Column Chase Ruttig man with eleven titles couldn’t manage to stay as an iconic leader of one team. We really are left with only a small handful of coaches you can truly tie to one team. Lindy Ruff was fired as head coach of the Buffalo Sabres this year, ending the longest NHL head coaching job at 13 seasons, Jerry Sloan was also ousted from his job as head coach of the Utah Jazz, ending the longest tenure as a head coach in North American pro sports. It seems that the new 24/7/365 sports news cycle has added even more to the difficulties of keeping a job as a head coach, with fans, bloggers, and television/ radio pundits microanalysis every decision and moment of every league and every game it has become harder and harder to appease a fan base and an owner in modern sports, it is a
that some loved, some loathed, some hated, but we always respected. A man that for many of the greatest moments of club football in my lifetime was always on the touchline, or sitting in his famous chair looking calm cool and collected as United picked up another three points on their way to another romp to an EPL title, or one of his five FA Cups. A man who brought us some of the world’s biggest athletes and best players. From Cantona to Giggs, Scholes and Beckham, to Cristiano
Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, always ensuring that the Theatre of Dreams was filled with the best artists to paint the perfect picture on the grass of Old Trafford. We also say goodbye to a man who stood at the helm of the club he helped build for 26 years, six years longer than I have even been on this planet. It is a shame it might be a long time until a coach has as much of a lasting impact on a club as Sir Alex has. Cheers Sir Alex, you will be missed by us all.
fact of life. For coaches, they now know that they will eventually overstay their welcome and that the game is a business, m a k i n g coaches change their mentality to taking the best job that is available every time as getting fired is a much worse fate than packing your bags and going to another place where you will be new and wanted (and make more money, can’t forget that) So today SR.

The Clean Sweep Crew are ready to clean up our sidewalks 5 days a week this year. But we would ask our members and their clients to help them out by picking up any unwanted debris on the sidewalks.

YBID is looking at establishing six Cardboard recycling Bins for the exclusive use of YBID Members. The major issue is what will this project cost and just who will pay. More meetings will take place to work out an agreement with YBID the City of Yorkton and OSS. Keep your eyes open for more on this project.

We hope the city streets are cleaned up soon so that YBID and the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery can begin our Crosswalk Art Project. We tried it out last fall and the paint used was rather poor so this time we are hoping that a better quality paint will last for the summer and into fall.

YBID is searching for possible YBID Bench locations as well as trash cans so if you have a suggestion where they can be used please let us know. We have a small inventory and would like to find a home for them in the district. By the way this fall we will be removing the benches and giving them, a paint job over the winter, some are looking a bit faded.
