Road closure possibility causes concern – fate of 7th Avenue a topic of debate By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer
After a request from a local business looking to expand its operations, Yorkton city council members are pondering the permanent closure of a portion of Seventh Avenue North along Broadway Avenue in the city. The concept however, isn’t sitting well with many residents, some of whom were in attendance at Monday evening’s regular meeting of council to express concerns. “The reason for the closure of the street is to allow the owner of 145 Broadway Street East (Home Hardware) to connect it with 117 Seventh Avenue North and create a larger, contiguous property. This will enable expanded capacity for the existing hardware/lumber store and for construction of ready-to-

Celebrating Culture Days! TRADITIONAL DANCE and song were just some of the attractions at the annual Festival of Cultures event, held in the city over the weekend. The event brought together a total of 14 different cultures which showed off their food, art, dance, music, and other important aspects of their culture. See more on Page 2.
move dwellings,” said a printed proposal issued for public comment. “Northbound traffic would no longer be available from the intersection of Seventh Avenue North and Broadway Street East... a portion of Seventh Avenue would become a bay/cul-desac...” Resident and emergency vehicle access would also be provided. In a city that’s growing, council of the day should be looking at street lights, as well as adding roadways and more parking rather than thinking about closures pointed out local business owner and resident along Sixth Avenue Kirk Weinmaster. With traffic flow and parking already a concern in the congested area, residents wonder what a road closure will offer to the situation. Continued on Page 3.
Sno-Riders/City recognized By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer It’s a winter activity that has many fans and it’s also a local tourism generator that brings dollars and people to the area. On Monday the local Sno-Rider organization, along with the City of Yorkton, were recognized for outstanding promotion and development by the Saskatchewan Snowmobile Association. The award acknowledged support of the sport and for its role in passing a bylaw to allow snowmobile trails into the city so snowmobilers can access food, fuel and lodging. “In the late 19990’s the Yorkton Sno-Riders worked strategically with the City of Yorkton to allow for two trails that come directly into the east and west area of the city, linking local and visiting snowmobilers to food, gas and lodging,” said Jason Popowich, President of the Sno-Riders to council Monday. “This partnership was the first of its kind in the province and continues today to bring increased tourist traffic into the city.” Both trails are groomed and well signed.

City celebrates culture By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Yorkton Festival of Cultures is in its second year, and the event is growing steadily. With eleven booths and a total of fourteen cultures showing off their food, dance, music, art and other important parts of their culture, the event was bigger and better than ever before. Edith Montesclaros with the Yorkton Newcomer Welcome Centre, which organized the event, says that the goal is to keep growing year after year, in order to foster a better understanding of different cultures in the area. She says that the event has been great for getting people talking to each other and learning about the different people surrounding them. “This morning, it was so fantastic. I was in the kitchen this morning, and there were people from Morocco, people from Jamaica, people from the
Philippines, and other countries, and they were interacting. That’s the main part of the festival, to interact with other cultures,” Montesclaros says. She says that the support from the community has been excellent, with a full theatre for the dance and song part of the program as well as busy booths throughout the event. She says that there is something for everyone at the event, and with it growing over last year the experience is a bit different each time. Since she is a relatively new to the country herself, Montesclaros says that some of her most rewarding moments have been learning about the more established communities in the area. The goal for the coming years will be the same as it has been this year, with the event growing and more cultures participating. Montesclaros says that they learn a bit more every year, and that the festival has plenty of room to grow.
Chamber announces board The results are in and a new board is set to take the helm. The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce has announced the results of the recent election for eight positions on the Chamber’s Board of Directors. Returning to the Board are Amie Zamonsky, Don Rae and Corey Werner. New, are Charlene Gibler, Cheryl Kustra, Greg Donnelly, Joel Martinuk and Laurie Fedorowich. Each Director will serve a two year term.
Ten people filed their nomination papers and Executive Director of the Chamber Juanita Polegi, says she was pleased with the quality of all the candidates. “Every person who let their name stand would have brought new ideas and enthusiasm for the Chamber to the Table,” she says. “We encourage the remaining candidates to consider running in future Chamber elections or to sit on one of the Board’s committees as the
PATIENTS FIRST – The Canadian Federation of University Women/Yorkton Club recently invited Dr. P. Fourie to give a presentation on a proposed new system of health care delivery at a meeting held at the Parkland College. Fourie says the new system will address how we can improve our delivery of health care. This Primary Health Care Redesign will focus on being patient centred, community designed and team delivered. He indicates that this approach will greatly improve access to health care and it will all be located in a single clinic. Members of the public were invited to attend and ask questions.
Chamber could benefit greatly from their experience and skills.” An election is held every November to fill half the Board positions. In order to run for a position on the Board, candidates must be members of the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce or represent businesses which hold membership in the Chamber. The new members of the Board will take their seat at the Chamber Board table in January at which time the Executive is then elected by the Directors. Directors serving the second year of their term include Carol Yaholnitsky, Chad Hilton, Dick DeRyk, Domenic Rampone, Doug Kitsch, Rob Bear, Susan Stewardson and Tom Seeley.
ON MONDAY THE LOCAL SNO-RIDER organization, along with the City of Yorkton, were recognized for outstanding promotion and development by the Saskatchewan Snowmobile Association. Above Mayor Bob Maloney (right) accepts an award with Jason Popowich, President of the local Sno-Riders Club.
Snowmobile trails discussed Con’t from Page 1. “With the help of local members of the Yorkton Sno-Riders and members of Tourism Yorkton, city council has recognized the need to attract additional tourism dollars into the city during normally quiet months in the cold winter. Year after year sleds can be seen parked outside of local restaurants and hotels as more and more snowmobilers are travelling via sled across Saskatchewan – filling up with fuel... enjoying a good meal at one of our local restaurants or staying overnight in one of our fine hotels.” In addition to praising the city on it’s efforts to accommodate snowmobilers thus far, Popowich also attended council to seek additional support in the form of signage and possibly more trails. The request means the city is now examining current snowmobile bylaws and considering changes. “The Snowmobile Bylaw for the City of Yorkton was originally passed on September 18, 1995 with some amendments to the schedule over the years. Due to increased development with the City of Yorkton, it is necessary to revisit the Bylaw and map that provides snowmobilers with the approved trails...” says City Clerk Bonnie Schenher adding, administration meets on a regular basis with the Sno-Rider club to discuss trails and options. Taking into consideration Sno-Riders requests, safety concerns and public feedback council gave first reading to a proposed bylaw and will continue to look into the matter.

Farmer-owned fertilizer project looks for investment By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Fertilizer costs have always been a major concern for farmers in the area, and a company has been working towards trying to help lower those prices. The FNA Fertilizer Limited Partnership has been holding meetings throughout Western Canada – including one in Yorkton – to get farmers investing in a farmerowned nitrogen plant, which would be built in Western Canada. They held a meeting in the city recently to get farmer input into the concept. Spokesman Bob Friesen says that the project has been in the works for twenty-two months and has so far involved a lot of research to see what kind of business case can be made for such a plant. He says the conclusion has been that there’s a very strong case for a farmer-owned fertilizer plant in western Canada
to produce nitrogen fertilizer. While the business case is sound, Friesen says that it is still a very ambitious project, so they need to reach out to farmers and get their support to go ahead. “This project is so much bigger than FNA has ever done, and we could only take so much out of our membership revenue, we decided to do a seed capital drive. It’s meant to do two things, it’s meant to get farmers to step up to the plate and support the project, to see how many farmers will do that, and secondly it’s also meant to raise funds to continue project development,” Friesen says. The drive began in midOctober, which Friesen admits might have been early, he says that it has been embraced by the farmers he has talked to through the meetings. He says that farmers in Canada want a permanent solution to increas-
ing input costs. “I believe farmers are also frustrated that fertilizer companies are increasing prices just because they can. Fertilizer prices are no longer tracking the cost of producing nitrogen fertilizer, they’re now tracking the prices of grains and oilseeds or the price of corn. Farmers have now decided that they are going to build a fertilizer plant because they can,” Friesen says. He also says that another incentive to build the plant is a desire for value-added processes for farm production, something Friesen says doesn’t benefit farmers unless they own the process. “That’s what this project is really about. It’s not about destroying the market price of fertilizer, it’s about ensuring that the farmer-investors get a lower price for their fertilizer than what they’re paying retail, but secondly on top of that
they’re also getting a good healthy return on their investment,” Friesen says. The plant will be located in western Canada, though Friesen says that no final decisions have been made beyond that. Sixty per cent of the seed capital investment
will be guaranteed by FNA, which Friesen says is a rare case for capital projects like this, as it is very rare there is a guarantee. He says that they chose to guarantee that 60 per cent is to show their confidence in the project. He also notes that early investors will
be receiving some sort of preferential treatment, which will be decided later. He says the project itself could be worth a billion dollars, with investment from farmers as well as other sources. People interested in the project are encouraged to visit projectn.ca.
City ponders street closure Con’t from Page 1. Speaking on behalf of downtown business owners, the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce also expressed concern at Monday’s meeting. “I feel if the city allows this to go through it will be making a huge mistake,” says business owner Bryce Sherring. “There is no city or town anywhere (except for Lloydminster) that would allow a home manufacturing facility to operate on their main street! Over the past ten years Yorkton has spent huge money to beautify Broadway with lights, cobblestone type sidewalks, flower planters etc. Why do they want to allow a home manufacturer to build homes on our main street?...” “Our city is growing and our traffic is increasing. More businesses means more employees and more parking is required,” said a letter sent to council signed by seven residents along Sixth Avenue. “Our two main traffic arteries for downtown traffic in Yorkton are Broadway Street and Smith Street. Closing Access between two streets will place more traffic on the streets remaining. The vehicles parking on Seventh Avenue will have to find parking elsewhere. Probably Sixth Avenue. The Holiday Inn Express is nearing completion and will surely increase traffic ... Parked vehicles and increased traffic along Sixth could spell disaster...” Given the amount feedback received and the number of concerns expressed, council has agreed to hold off on any final decision pending further consideration. “While Planning Services believes there is merit in the proposed closure,” said Gord Shaw, the city’s director of planning and engineering to council, “concern has been expressed from numerous property owners and it has been suggested that the city should allow more time for public consultation. Given the long term impact of the proposed closure, it is recommended that the Bylaw be deferred to a later meeting in order to provide for further response time from affected parties.”
READY TO RIDE – The snow is on the ground for Snowarama, and the big prize has been selected as well. This year’s sled, a Ski-doo MXZ Sport worth a little over $10,000, is supplied by King Sport and Marine and Bombardier. It will be donated for free to the event, the first time the prize is being donated with no cost to Snowarama. Pictured above (l-r) are Bailey Clark, Snowarama Ambassador, Paul Smolinski, owner and general manager at King Sport, and John Denysek, Regional Director at the Saskatchewan Abilities Council. Denysek says that with the donation of the sled there will be a direct reduction of expenses, as they do not have to purchase the big prize. That means eight more children will be able to go to camp. This year’s goal for Snowarama is $155,000, and it’s already getting off to a good start, both with the big donation and the big snowfall to kick off the riding season.

Awareness key to improving lives There are support networks out there – whether you’re settling into the province from another country our you’re struggling with an addiction. That’s the message being spoken loudly this week. The week of November 19-25 is both Multiculturalism Awareness Week in Yorkton and Addictions Awareness Week. The goal behind both initiatives is to raise awareness and improve situations. Speaking on the topic of addictions, Saskatchewan’s Health Minister Dustin Duncan says, “The theme of this year’s awareness week is ‘Connect for Help’. We encourage individuals to connect with available addictions services in your local communities if you are concerned about your own substance misuse, or are worried about your loved ones.” Alcohol, drug use, tobacco and gambling are all public health issues that have the potential to adversely affect local families but that doesn’t have to be the case when there are alternatives. Multicultural Week in Saskatchewan is celebrated every year in November to recognize the diversity of Saskatchewan’s growing population, encourage respect for the vast multicultural heritage in Saskatchewan, foster a climate of harmonious relations among people with diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds and encourage the continuation of a multicultural society in Saskatchewan. This week also commemorates Saskatchewan being the first province to introduce multicultural legislation in 1974. First Nations settled here long before Europeans and, along with Métis, made an historical and significant contribution to the development of Saskatchewan,” points out Saskatchewan’s Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Kevin Doherty. “Today, representing 15 per cent of Saskatchewan’s population, First Nations and Métis continue to play an important role in building our province.” Saskatchewan’s population has reached an all-time high and immigration has been one of the greatest contributing factors. In 2011, Saskatchewan saw the arrival of newcomers from more than 100 countries, making the province’s population even more diverse. “By preserving, strengthening and promoting all cultures and ethnic communities, we can shape our future and build an even stronger Saskatchewan,” Doherty adds. “I encourage Saskatchewan residents to join us in celebrating multiculturalism as we recognize the many benefits that our diverse and growing population bring today and into the future.” With continued awareness and support networks there’s no stopping the province from growing forward.
Help at home could speak volumes The way I see it... When I hear about all of the millions of dollars being spent on overseas efforts I can’t help but wonder what might happen if we refocused at least a portion of those funds in our own country. A recent report released out of Ottawa says Canada is failing the grade when it comes to attracting high quality university students to the country from places like China, India and Brazil. We’re not only spending money to try to entice these people to come here, but we’re forking out added dollars to “study” why current efforts aren’t working. Some scholars are criticizing the Canadian government for cutting a $5 million program that helped to promote Canadian universities in foreign locations. The cut was apparently part of an effort to trim $170 million from the annual Foreign Affairs budget. I say this is fine and dandy – and if we have those funds to spend why don’t we direct them to lending a helping hand to Canadian students who are struggling to make ends meet while putting themselves through school. It’s not that welcoming educated people to our country isn’t a good thing, but we have brilliant
people right here all around us who would love to better their education but are fearful of taking the leap because of the costs. We have people who have taken the leap and are now scraping by as they work their way to good life.” There are Shannon Deveau “the also those who are more than capable of achieving more, but don’t give university a second thought because they think it’s not a worthwhile dream. “Why bother when I can make more money on the rigs or working in a trade?” And who can blame them? How much are we spending on polls and surveys that could be better spent on getting the younger Canadian generation into career fields where we are clearly in need of more experts? We need doctors. We need nurses. We need quality people working in all sectors of life. Why can’t we invest a little more at home to help achieve that? By all means spend a little to do it, but costly surveys and throwing dollars into the ocean isn’t the way. Educate our own students and they will have the money to travel to speak for themselves on the merits Canada has to offer. No surveys or government campaigns needed.
Column
Many fun size columns in place of a normal one Some days, you’ve got a coherent idea of what you want to say, a clear three columns of ideas that flow naturally from one to the other. Some days, you don’t have that, and just have a scattershot of observations that barely fill a paragraph. This week, after having a great deal of difficulty attempting to create a column on a consistent subject, I will instead take a different approach, and do sort of variety pack, taking fun size tidbits and trying to construct a whole. First, the Saskatchewan government has been reforming the province’s liquor laws, which has revealed some oddly specific laws which are going by the wayside. I am referring to the law which prohibited people from opening their own beer on the golf course, which has now been removed. I can’t figure this one out, since there doesn’t seem to be any logical reason why a golfer should not be allowed to open their beer. If it’s because they litter caps, then that’s the courses’ problem and also an incentive to use cans instead of bottles. If they are intending to save their beer for later, it’s just making them slightly inconvenienced. While I admit that I was not around when the law was put in place, and perhaps it made complete sense at the time, looking at it now it’s just making me scratch my head, wondering how it could have happened.
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger Next topic, south of the border they are having their annual Black Friday event, where consumers act like antagonists in zombie films, flooding into stores in an effort to get cheap televisions or other big deals. The hype behind the sales feed into them, with normally sane people participating in the madness in order to see what the fuss is about, and maybe save a few dollars. Personally, I don’t think it’s worth it, no matter how much you save. I’d much rather go to the store on a slow day and pay a few dollars more, because then you get in and out more quickly and can then go on to spend your time much better. Plus, staff at the store is going to be much more helpful when
they’re not stressed out from the abuse and simple lack of time that is endemic to a chaotic sales day. You can’t really put a price on sanity, it’s much more valuable than any half-price LCD screen you can find. Moving right along, complaints are coming from the launch of Nintendo’s Wii U console, which is apparently cursed with a lengthy firmware update on initial launch. Said update has caused impatient people to abort the procedure, which in turn has caused some consoles to break completely. While it might be Nintendo’s fault for shipping an incomplete system, at some point you have to wonder if people almost need to learn this lesson. Sometimes stuff doesn’t happen immediately, and getting impatient doesn’t get people anywhere. It’s not a cheap lesson to learn, the console is $300, but I have little sympathy for someone who ignores the warning that interrupting that process could damage the system. As frustrating as it can be, perhaps those who are waiting for the process to complete can do some light cleaning or make small meal, give themselves something to do so they don’t get antsy and break their new toy. So that was this week’s collection of fun size topics. Like all fun size things, it’s less satisfying but at least there’s a bunch of them.

Your letter of the Week
Teach Canadian history in school A freedom fighter To the Editor:
Former Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King once said that “while some countries have too much history, we have too much geography.” He implied that because of the relatively young age of our country, Canada has less history than most other countries. However, having a shorter history is no guarantee that our citizens are more likely to know it well. According to a 2009 survey commissioned by the Dominion Institute, less than half of Canadians between the ages of 18 and 35 could identify John A. Macdonald, Canada’s first prime minister, from his portrait. Less than one in 10 could identify former NDP leader Tommy Douglas and barely one in five recognized Métis leader Louis Riel. Even former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau was unknown by almost half of Canadians in the same cohort. Last year, federal Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Jason Kenney introduced a new citizenship guide. In order to be granted citizenship, applicants must now demonstrate sufficient knowledge of essential Canadian history. The new 64-page study guide, Discover Canada, devotes 10 pages to a chronological overview of key events in our history. Any applicant who does not master these facts cannot pass the citizenship test. Since we expect new citizens to be familiar with Canadian history, it makes sense to apply the same standard to those who grow up in this country. This is why most people expect schools to ensure students learn the key events in Canadian history. While there will always be debate around what historical events are most important, it’s not difficult to identify some fundamental things everyone should know. For example, few would dispute that all Canadians should be familiar with our
Confederation of 1867, Samuel de Champlain’s founding of Quebec City in 1608, Canada’s contribution during the two World Wars, and the patriation of the Constitution in 1982. Controversial episodes such as Indian residential schools, the Chinese Head Tax, and the forced relocation of Japanese Canadians during World War II should also be studied. Understanding our past, warts and all, makes us better able to grapple with the issues confronting our country today. A welleducated and broadly-informed
example, Alberta students take courses in globalization, nationalism, and ideology while British Columbia students take a grade 12 history course in which they look at major world events of the 20th century. Neither province mandates a high school course in Canadian history. Saskatchewan does require grade 12 students to take a history course called Canadian Studies. Unfortunately, the course is arranged thematically rather than chronologically. Instead of starting at a chosen point and showing how one historical event builds on another, students jump from topics such as “External Forces and Domestic Realities” to “The Forces of Nationalism.” Interestingly, Manitoba stands out as a bright light among the provinces. Not only are all Manitoba grade 11 students required to take Canadian history, the course content is arranged chronologically. Furthermore, the new textbook that goes with the curriculum provides a useful and easy-to-read overview of key events in Canadian history. Other provinces would do well to follow Manitoba’s example. Much of the inadequate teaching of history in our schools stems from a faulty educational philosophy. Prospective teachers are told by their education professors not to focus on making sure students learn a core knowledge base, but rather to emphasize the so-called process of learning. As a result, schools focus on abstract concepts such as globalization, nationalism, and social justice at the expense specific knowledge and skills. Canadian history is too important a subject for us to allow it to fall out of use. No student should graduate from high school without a solid understanding of the events that have shaped our great country.
“Canadian history is too important a subject for us to allow it to fall out of use. No student should graduate from high school without a solid understanding of the events that have shaped our great country.” general public is the best protection against misguided government policies. Knowing our past makes it easier for us to build on our successes and avoid repeating our failures. Because education is a provincial responsibility, there are no national history standards. Unfortunately, most provinces fail to provide an adequate history curriculum to public school students, a fact well-documented by renowned historian Jack Granatstein in his book, Who Killed Canadian History? Although every province includes some Canadian history in the elementary grades, most do not require high school students to take a full course on the subject, but prescribe nebulous social studies courses instead.

It’s time for the pandering votes to stop
To the Editor:
The Federal NDP has rightly come under suspicion for their puzzling position on national unity. The NDPs current leader Thomas Muclair promotes an extreme policy that accepts a simple majority of 50 percent plus one vote to break up Canada should there be a referendum. No regard for voter turnout, no regard for the question posed, and no regard for the good of Canada, just a complete capitulation in order to pander for votes in Quebec.
The NDP call this policy the Sherbrooke Declaration. Inexplicably, this dangerous policy does not apply to how the NDP handles their internal operations. The Federal NDP requires a clear 66.6 percent majority vote to make changes to their internal constitution. And yet for Thomas Muclair and the current NDP, a 50 percent plus one vote is just fine to break up Canada. The NDP’s position on national unity is problematic. They claim that the Sherbrooke Declaration is consistent with
Parliament’s Clarity Act. This is not true. It is in direct violation of the Federal Clarity Act and a ruling of the Supreme Court of Canada. The Clarity Act is the law setting out the rules for any referendum. It is the law that mandates a clear question. It is a law that requires a clear expression of Quebecers intent. It is the law. I was in Parliament during the Clarity Acts debates. I was proud to stand with Prime Minister Chretien and Stéphane Dion in support of clear rules meant to protect national unity.
Back then, prominent members of the NDP like Ed Broadbent, Roy Romanow and Bill Blakie placed the unity of the country ahead of partisan interests. They supported the Clarity Act. The new separatist government in Quebec will do what they can to break up Canada. The NDP’s 50 percent plus one policy helps the separatists. It is wrong and dangerous. The pandering to get votes must stop. Political opportunism should never trump national unity. Senator Jane Cordy, Dartmouth, NS.
End of BillC-398 will result in preventable deaths To the Editor: What would you sell to save the life of a loved one? Everything? So would the African grandmothers to save the lives of their children and grandchildren. In 2004, Canadians kept their promise to the world to make life saving generic drugs accessible to developing countries. Parliament unanimously passed Canada’s Access to Medicines Regime (CAMR). Unfortunately, CAMR is fatally
flawed. In the many days, weeks, months, and years since that proud moment, one shipment of drugs made it to one country. Two CAMR reform efforts have been thwarted by prorogation and an election call. Another effort will die if not passed on November 28. The death of Bill C-398 will result in more preventable deaths. The African grandmothers would sacrifice everything for their children – we need only sacrifice a few moments to contact our MPs.

(If your MP has concerns, visit: http://tinyurl. com/8w8vcfb for ammunition to shoot down any myths surrounding this bill.) Stand compassionately on your hill and send a forceful message to Parliament Hill, pass Bill C-398. Nancy Carswell Shellbrook, SK.
not a criminal
To the Editor: To Commemorate “Louis Riel Day,” the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples unfurled the Métis Flag at the Ottawa Police Headquarters on November 16, 2012. Each year, on Louis Riel Day we pay tribute to a man who fought to preserve Métis rights and culture, and paid the ultimate price. As an Aboriginal person, I believe that history has shown that Louis Riel was in fact a hero, and was unjustly tried and convicted of a crime he did not commit. I believe that Louis Riel was a freedom fighter who stood up for his people in the face of bigotry and racism. I also want to note that not only is Riel an important figure to Métis and Aboriginal people, he is becoming increasingly more important to non-Aboriginal people as well. This, I believe is because as historians look back, a different story of Riel emerge; as a man of courage, of conviction and a man seeking justice for his People.” It is for this reason that there have been several attempts which have gone before Parliament to have the conviction of Louis Riel overturned. Although these attempts have not been successful to date, I firmly believe that in the near future, this grave injustice will be corrected. As an Aboriginal person, I encourage Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people across the country to take a moment out of their day, and pay tribute to the sacrifice that Louis Riel made in the name of justice. It is a day to remember our history, to learn from our past, to ensure that this type of injustice never happens to anyone again in the future.” Since 1971, the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples, (formerly known as the Native Council of Canada) has represented the interests of off-reserve status and non-status Indians, Southern Inuit and Métis throughout Canada. Today, over 60 per cent of Aboriginal Peoples now live off-reserve. The Congress is also the national voice for its affiliate organizations who advocate on behalf of Aboriginal Peoples living off-reserve.

Promoting a National Day for the Sunshine Vitamin So what’s your blood level? No, I’m not talking about alcohol. One of my colleagues on the Hill, Dr. James Lunney, MP for Nanaimo-Alberni, wants us to pay attention to our Vitamin D blood levels. That’s why he has introduced legislation to designate every November 2nd as national Vitamin D Day. His Bill, C-388, is already making its way through Parliament. At least 3000 well-documented research articles confirm that Vitamin D, the so-called “sunshine vitamin” is key to disease prevention. Sufficient blood levels could reduce the incidence of chronic degenerative diseases such as diabetes, MS, cardiovascular diseases, viral infections and cancer. Yet the most thorough study ever done by Stats Can on this subject reveals that Canadians don’t get enough Vitamin D. Our country’s climate provides plenty of four-season sporting fun, but when it comes to our levels of Vitamin D (which in its natural state is absorbed through the skin from the sun) we can’t rival warmer countries. This is a problem. Without adequate Vitamin D in our blood, our bodies can’t absorb cal-
Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz cium or phosphorous. According to the Stats Can study, two-thirds of Canadians have levels that place us at increased risk for the chronic diseases mentioned above. One in ten of us don’t have high enough levels to keep our bones healthy, and the extremely low levels of four in a hundred of us put us at risk for rickets, a severe and debilitating bone disease mainly found in children. It doesn’t have to be that way. Abundant research indicates that elevating Vitamin D levels through supplements would not only make us a healthier
country, it would make us a richer one. The Journal of Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, 2010, estimates elevating blood levels of Vitamin D3 to a safe level would save $14.4 billion in health care costs per year in Canada. Health Canada suggests that Canadians take from 200 to 600 International Units of vitamin D a day for good bone health. Other research indicates that vitamin D may have anti-cancer benefits at higher levels. The purpose of Bill C-388 is not to legislate the mandatory taking of vitamins. Declaring each November 2 as National Vitamin D Day (though not a holiday) will build on what some cities across Canada from Vancouver to St. John’s have already done by designating the same day as such. A National impetus would encourage more Canadian communities to promote this low cost vital vitamin – for all our good health. So do you know your blood level of Vitamin D? Don’t worry – there won’t ever be a breathalyzer test for this blood level – but in light of our own health, maybe there should be!
It’s a week for awareness It’s an important week in the City of Yorkton. On Monday members of Yorkton City Council officially proclaimed the week of November 18-25 as both Multiculturalism Week and Addictions Awareness Week in the city. Members from both the local Addictions Awareness Week Committee and the Multicultural Council of
Saskatchewan (MCOS) were in attendance at Monday’s meeting of council to talk about the importance and seek support. “Each year the week of November that includes November 22, is celebrated as Saskatchewan Multicultural Week,” said Darlene Stawkiw, past president of the MCOS. “The Saskatchewan Motto is ‘From

Many Peoples Strength’. Saskatchewan was the very first province to enact multiculturalism legislation on November 22, 1974, recognizing the right of every community to retain its identity, language and traditional arts and sciences for the mutual benefit of citizens.” The MCOS commits itself to promoting, fostering, improving and developing multiculturalism while working to achieve equality for all residents. Speaking on behalf of the Saskatchewan Addictions Awareness Week Committee was Brittany Morin who said the local committee regards alcohol, tobacco, drug use and gambling as public health issues with the potential to seriously affect individuals, families and the community. “Our committee is active in planning and conducting local awareness activities throughout the community.” Each year more than 6,000 people participate annually in efforts Canada-wide and with awareness those involved hope to promote more fun, healthy and family friendly activities.
HONORING CRASH VICTIMS –Yorkton Regional High School’s Students Against Drinking and Driving chapter recently held a vigil in honor of those injured and killed in road accidents. The night was both about victims in the past, and saving people in the future, with students reminding people to take steps to drive safely, by avoiding alcohol when behind the wheel, being aware of road conditions and staying within speed limits.

A meat thermometer is worth its weight in gold Over the years I have discovered many simple methods that will help to easily perfect the meals that we serve. Some are so obvious, like a meat thermometer, it is bizarre when I come across a household that does not have one. Always during the approach of traditional holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter I seem to get bombarded with questions about how long a turkey should cook. Although I appreciate the opportunity for helping people in the kitchen, the answer to me always seems so obvious that it is surprising that more people don’t already have the solution. Not only will a simple
oven-proof meat thermometer help to save your turkey dinner, it will also be the resolution to mastering the doneness of a myriad of meat roasting recipes. I have owned my current meat thermometer for probably close to fifteen years now and it is still going strong. Not bad for an investment of only a few dollars. Be certain that you are purchasing one that is heat resistant (oven proof) so that it can be left in the piece of meat for the entire cooking process. If an instant read thermometer is used instead, and the temperature is checked at a number of intervals, valued juices will be lost from the meat with each puncture. One of the most
Sudoku Puzzle of the Week 8 7
by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com important goals in cooking meat is to keep it moist while still reaching the desired doneness. The area of a turkey where the thermometer should be inserted is the thickest part of the inner thigh without touching the bone. A stuffed turkey should be done when it reads 180F (82C), and unstuffed at 170F (77C). You should also notice that the legs move easily
when twisted and the juices run clear. There is a difference in these two temperature readings because a stuffed turkey is denser, and the stuffing needs to reach a high enough temperature to kill any bacteria present. This being said, I do realize that people appreciate approximate cooking times to effectively coordinate side dishes to the main course, and it is for
Dear Chef Dez: I heard that it important to let a (turkey) “rest” when it comes out of the oven, before carving it. Is this true, and why? Brad B. Abbotsford, BC. Dear Brad: This is true. Actually it is true with all cuts of meat. The “resting” period gives the meat time to adjust coming from the extreme heat to room temperature. During the cooking process, the heat causes the atoms in the molecular structure of the meat to move at a high rate of speed. If the meat is cut into soon after it has been removed from the heat, it will lose a large degree of vital juices that keep it moist and tasty.

this reason only that I will provide guidelines for you. Do not use these parameters as your main indication of doneness, but rather as an additional plan to your trusty meat thermometer. There are many factors for example that will play havoc on the final accuracy of the cooking time: the temperature of the turkey prior to roasting, the temperature of the stuffing (if used), or maybe your oven is running a bit hotter or colder than the set temperature. Where you decide to purchase your meat thermometer is not important, as they are available almost everywhere. What is important is that you get one and enjoy the benefits of it for years to come.

SUDOKU RULES The objective is to fill a 9×9 grid with digits so that each column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 sub-grids that compose the grid (also called “boxes,” “blocks,” “regions,” or “sub-squares”) contains all of the digits from 1 to 9. The puzzle setter provides a partially completed grid, which typically has a unique solution. Completed puzzles are always a type of Latin square with an additional constraint on the contents of individual regions. For example, the same single digit may not appear twice in the same 9x9 playing board row or column or in any of the nine 3x3 subregions of the 9x9 playing board. This week’s puzzle is very hard.

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, November 22, 2012 - Page 9A
Columnist gets set to release book By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer He’s touched the hearts of many, entertaining through a column he submits regularly to The News Review and now he’s taken his writing to a new level for readers to enjoy. Kaare Askildt, aka “A Farmer in Training” has penned his first book and soon it will be appearing on book store shelves. Making his way to Canada from Norway, Askildt has stories aplenty to tell about his experiences from life in Norway to life on the farm in small town Saskatchewan. Growing up with an identical twin brother with whom he enjoyed playing pranks set the stage for humor and adventure which he now shares through stories. “I married my first wife in Norway, and we wanted to travel and live in an English speaking country for a couple of years, to learn the language by immersion,” he says. “Canada became the choice as we had friends in BC.” Having experienced the Canadian lifestyle, he says, there was no going back to Norway. “I moved around in Western Canada over the next 10 years as I was being transferred by the companies that I worked for. I settled in Edmonton in the late 70s, and changed both career and wife. Marion (his wife) is a farm girl originally from Garrick, Saskatchewan so when the topic of retirement eventually came up Askildt says he gave her a couple of options. One was Newfoundland and the other, Saskatchewan. “And here we are! She wanted to get back to the farm life and to be as selfsufficient as possible, so we bought a farm by Preeceville. This is how I started becoming a farmer. I knew nothing about farming, so it was a new experience for me. I kept on screwing up, so I took on the moniker: “Farmer in Training!” It’s been an adjustment to say the least, but an experience he says he wouldn’t trade. “In 1968 there was a huge difference in the Canadian life style versus the Norwegian life style. My first wife and I embraced the Canadian life style, to the point
where we would never return to Norway other than as visitors when we can afford it. “I do miss my twin brother; he and I had a lot of fun together, even to this day! We talk to each other on the phone at least twice a month, sometimes more often, and we email every day. Norway is a nice place to be from! But I don’t miss the Norwegian taxes!” The biggest challenge as a newcomer to Canada he says, was learning the language. “In Norway I had four years on the English language as a school subject. However, we were taught what I would call BBC English. Mix that with my Norwegian accent, and it could only cause confusion, as well as many funny moments. “I listened to the radio and TV, and emulated the speech. I read all the newspapers from front to back and took up cross word puzzles to expand my vocabulary, and when I heard a new word spoken, I would look it up in the dictionary. It worked so well that I now have problems with my Norwegian language. Last time I was in Norway one of my nephews told me that I spoke ancient Norwegian.” Humour plays a big part in Askildt’s life and it shows in his writing. “My dad always told me that no matter how bad or dire a situation is, one must always find the positive side to it, however miniscule. I always analyze my situation to find something to laugh or smile at as well, and I always find something that I did that I can laugh at. “This way I have learned to laugh at adversity. My credo is: ‘I’d rather poke fun at myself to the amusement of others, than to poke fun at others to amuse myself’.” Initially he says, he wrote stories for personal amusement, but then his wife suggested he have them published. “And that’s how it all started. In my book I have combined funny stories from my life in Norway, with my “Farmer in Training” stories.” He suggests readers of the upcoming book have some tissue close by... “to wipe the tears of laughter off their faces!

REITs help to fill the bill Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are publicly traded trusts that hold, and often manage, revenue-generating real estate assets. REITs are tax efficient and generally pay quarterly distributions. The majority of the cash flow distributed to unit holders is classified as return of capital, reducing the cost base of the unit. Generally the return of capital isn’t taxed when the investor receives it, but is taxed as a capital gain when the REIT is sold, and thus tax-deferred. In the wake of major changes to income trusts, many investors faced significant shortfalls in retirement funding. As income trust distributions were cut and conversions took place, investors looked to REITs' hefty yields as one solution. That popularity grew after the financial crisis, when even more investors turned to income-producing investments. With current interest rates remaining low investment in REITs continue to rise, resulting in double-digit returns for the sector on a year-to-date basis. Recent strong outperformance of the S&P/ TSX Capped REIT Index, relative to the broader equity market, is supported by three factors carried over from 2011 into 2012. There have been strong property market fundamentals throughout all asset classes, characterized by
Financial freedom by Kim Inglis
www.reynoldsinglis.ca falling vacancies and rising rents. A wide positive spread investing environment has facilitated significant accretive acquisitions, and the interest rate environment has allowed refinancing of maturing debt at historically low rates. Some question whether REITs can sustain their popularity, given the significant interest in them over the last few years. According to Canaccord Genuity analysts, REITs are here to stay. They believe that real estate is a cyclical asset and that we have reached a point in the cycle where property fundamentals are entering the growth stages. The current interest situation bodes well because attractive borrowing costs in turn drive further investing opportunities. The analysts point to growth in tenant demand as a key indication. It is outpacing new supply, which should drive vacancies lower and rental rates higher. On a year-over-year basis, the vacancy rate in the Canadian office sector fell to 8.3 per cent in Q3/12, marking the thir-
teenth consecutive quarter of positive absorption. And, funds from operations on a per unit basis have continued to grow at a healthy pace. In Q2/12, commercial REITs saw average FFO/ unit growth of 10.0 per cent while residential REITs rang in at 4.5 per cent. Dennis Mitchell, CIO and Senior Portfolio Manager of Sentry Investments, believes this trend will continue and that rising cash flows ultimately support rising distributions and unit prices. He points to contractual rent increases, positive leasing spreads, and debt refinancing as key factors driving the growth. He also sees REITs developing on excess land or expanding existing properties and making accretive acquisitions, due to the current low cost of capital. There are no indications that market volatility is going to abate, or that returns will soon improve significantly in the broader bond and equity markets, so investors are seeking yield as a primary source of investment return. As
an asset that offers steady cash flow, REITs help fill the bill.

The farmer is trained, moves on
Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This is the 19th of a series on getting settled in Hazel Dell. What was supposed to be a Saturday BBQ with close friends, had to be cancelled due to the inclement weather. High winds and rain. We actually watched what appeared to be vertical sheets of water being pushed eastward by the 70 km winds. It spooked the horses and they all galloped in from the pasture to seek shelter in the barn! My wife had erected a gazebo in the yard, which the wind picked up and tossed into the trees. The BBQ has been rescheduled for a later date. The torrential rain and forecasted drop in temperature overnight caused my wife to take pity on the horses. She loves them so much, and they love her right back. She decided to put blankets on them for the night. The rain had stopped and the horses had wandered back out to the far south eastern pasture, so she had to call them back to the barn. They heard her voice and ran back to her in full gallop. The corral by the barn had become a virtual mud slide, and the horses slid
to a halt. It’s a dirt floor in the barn, and with all the rain some water got in there and turned it to mud as well. Honest, I didn’t realize how bad it was out there, so when the dogs wanted out, I just opened the door and out they went. Trust me I didn’t know! However, I was given a vivid description of what happened next! Try to visualize. The horses were in the barn and shaking from being cold and wet; the pecking order meant nothing as they all wanted my wife’s attention, which resulted in the horses crowding her. Then into the barn bounced three barking dogs full of energy, and they also wanted my wife’s attention. It’s a small barn, in fact just a three tie stall stable. The horses acted up and started pushing each other, the dogs were running around the horses, my wife got pushed, fell over a dog and ended up face down in the mud with the dogs running over her. She leapt back on her feet, grabbed the horses one after the other and threw the blankets over their backs. She wanted to get rid of the dogs before securing the blankets; in fact she had murder on her mind! But the dogs were still barking and run-
Book release nearing Con’t from Page 9. “My twin brother and I looked so much alike growing up that we were referred to as “They look so much alike, like two drops of water!” And we were addressed as: “Hey you twin!” We delighted using our likeness in pulling pranks. The girls were never sure who they had just kissed! The first part of my book describes in part the reason why my mother stated: “I would not wish twins on even my worst enemy!” Then of course the latter part describes the humorous side of my efforts to become a farmer. I tried once to put a serious spin on one of my farmer stories, but it didn’t work!” With another book already in the works Askildt says he is living his dream and his life goal is quite simply to “live life to the fullest! I hope that I live long enough to be a nuisance to my grandchildren! “My only regret is that I didn’t start the book projects earlier! Today’s world needs more laughter!” Called the Heedless Norseman, Askildt’s book is currently in the hands of the publisher and is set to released soon.

ning, causing the horses to back out of the barn and the blankets starting to slide off. With fire in her eyes she let out a bone chilling wolfish growl that could be heard all the way to Preeceville, and managed to chase the dogs out of the barn and secured the horse blankets on the horses. She was spitting fire and nails coming out of the barn, she chased the dogs back to the house. When she opened the door, the dogs ran right up and crowded behind me. My beautiful wife looked like she had spent some time at a mud spa. I couldn’t make out the kind of clothes she was wearing as they were all covered with a blackish mud, and all I could see of her face was the white in her eyes. I didn’t quite understand the guttural utterances and growls she aimed in my direction, but I gathered it wasn’t particularly nice. After she cleaned up
and calmed down, she told me in graphic detail what had happened out there. All I could say was: “Oops, I’m sorry! It won’t happen again! But that mud pack on your face probably worked wonders on your skin!” She saw the humor in the situation, and just started to laugh! The bad weather reminded me about a story from the old days. A Norwegian freighter was headed out of the Oslo Fjord into the Atlantic when the Captain radioed a lighthouse operator for a weather report. A thunderstorm was coming towards him, and the radio reception was really bad. The report came back garbled and he could hardly hear the operator. “Please spell the weather report,” suggested the Captain. The lighthouse operator came back with: “W-E-TH-O-R-R-E-P-O-R-T.” “Good grief,” said the Captain, “that’s the worst spell of weather I’ve had in a long time!”

BE A BUDDY – St. Mary’s School is serious about stopping bullying.

Pink “Be a Buddy” shirts were worn through the week and students learned about the consequences caused by bullying. – Submitted photo.
Hurricane Sandy help sought Saskatchewan credit unions are now accepting cash donations in support of Red Cross relief efforts for Hurricane Sandy in the Caribbean and the United States. Hurricane Sandy has caused devastation across six countries, leaving more than 300,000 people in the Caribbean homeless, and causing widespread damage in 10 American states. “We are grateful to SaskCentral and Saskatchewan credit unions for providing another way for Saskatchewan residents to help hundreds of thousands of people in the Caribbean and the United States,” says Cindy Fuchs, Provincial Director Canadian Red Cross in Saskatchewan. “Donations will help the Red Cross provide immediate life saving assistance and help families recover their livelihoods.” The Red Cross response to this
disaster was immediate. Disaster management volunteers in each country rapidly mobilized to provide lifesaving shelter, food and potable water to communities displaced by the storm. Red Cross societies in Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic are providing safe shelter, water distribution and emergency relief to hundreds of thousands of people displaced by the storm. In the United States, 23,000 Red Cross volunteers and staff are assisting people in 10 states. The Red Cross encourages Canadians to donate online at www. redcross.ca/helpnow, toll-free at 1-800-418-1111, or visit their local Red Cross office or nearest Saskatchewan credit union. Donations will be accepted in all Saskatchewan credit union locations until December 7, 2012.

Green savings in your wallet and on the road System Cleaner every 6,400 kilometers helps improve acceleration and fuel economy by unclogging fuel injectors and cleaning intake valves and combustion chambers. “All you need to do is pour it into your gas tank and drive away to improved performance,” Currie stated. Now, carrying out simple activities like this doesn’t mean you should avoid your local automotive service provider. Deferred maintenance can cost you way more in the long run. So, still plan to schedule those routine visits to ensure your car is in good working order and don’t put off activities such as oil changes and tune ups. Consider changing out spark plugs for ones that offer a faster, more efficient burn. Autolite XP Xtreme Performance spark plugs ignite the gas and air mixture inside the cylinders more efficiently than .8mm finewire, multi-electrode design and standard plugs, resulting in improved throttle response and acceleration. This, in turn, helps provide top fuel efficien-
In today’s economy, everyone is looking for ways to save money, and an unexpected place to do it could be in your garage. “There are a lot of very simple things that you can either do yourself or have done for you that will help your car run more efficiently, so you can save money at the pump,” explains Megan Currie, Honeywell Consumer Products Group product manager. Here are a couple examples of how drivers can save a little green – both in their wallets, and on the road: Change the air filter: According to Environment Canada, replacing a clogged air filter can improve a car’s gas mileage by as much as 10 percent. Fram air filters are an effective solution, as most models feature bright white fibres that make it easy to spot when a filter may need checking. While not all cars are alike, this is often a very easy project that can be done in minutes. Try a fuel additive: Using a fuel additive like Prestone Complete Fuel

cy over the life of the plug. Also, ask your technician to use synthetic oil and a filter like the FRAM Extended Guard synthetic oil filter. It may cost a little more upfront, but you’ll be able to go 11,000 kilometers before your next oil and filter change. Your owner’s manual will tell you what kind of oil to use and how often to have it changed. Finally, ensure your vehicle has received the proper cooling system maintenance. Prestone experts suggest that neglected antifreeze/ coolant can lead to corrosion, overheating and boil overs – and could cost lots of money to repair. Whether you do it yourself or have it done for you, preventative maintenance is the key to healthy cars and healthy wallets. Think of it this way, you can pay now for regular maintenance or potentially pay much more later for costly repairs or vehicle breakdowns.

Tips to stretch your auto maintenance budget
In today’s economy, everyone is looking for ways to stretch their dollars. Spending money on auto maintenance is a fact of life for most Canadians, but here are a few quick money saving tips that will really make a difference in your annual budget: • Use a premium oil filter. A Fram Extended Guard synthetic oil filter is a good choice. Regular oil changes are essential to keeping a vehicle run-
ning smoothly, but using a filter designed for longer drain intervals will help you go more kilometers between oil changes. • Change your dirty, clogged air filter to help improve your fuel economy and save more money at the pump. • Purchase a premixed 50/50 antifreeze coolant which is compatible with antifreeze/coolant in all vehicle makes and models, such as Prestone

5 ways to maintain your vehicle
Whether having your vehicle serviced regularly or attempting to tackle the job on your own, keeping your vehicle in good working condition will maximize its performance and help you to save on costly repairs down the road. The auto team at Canadian Tire has the following tips for Canadians looking to get the most out of their vehicle this year: Check your brakes The brake system in your vehicle is imperative for keeping you and your loved ones safe. Common signs of brake problems include a high-pitched screeching sound when applying the brakes, brakes that are not as responsive as they should be, a pedal that 'sinks' towards the floor, vibration on the brake pedal or a grinding metallic sound. If you experience any of these signs, drop by your local Canadian Tire so an experienced mechanic can take a look. Top up 'vital fluids' Keeping your vehicle running well requires constant monitoring of vital fluids. Fluids that should be monitored and topped up on a regular basis include: • Engine oil • Transmission fluid • Engine coolant • Power steering fluid • Brake fluid • Windshield washer fluid Replace shocks and struts Ensuring your vehicle has adequate shocks and struts will increase your vehicle's safety and performance. Worn
shocks and struts can cause uneven tire wear, damage suspension components, and cause unusual drift and sway to your vehicle. Change your tires With the harsh winters we've been experiencing, more Canadians have been relying on winter tires for increased safety in cold, wet weather. It is important that winter tires be replaced with all-season tires in the spring, as the rubber compound is different and performs differently in warmer temperatures. Driving on winter tires throughout the summer is hard on them and will decrease their lifespan. Oil/ Air Filter Change Your car's filters have a
significant impact on engine life and performance – they also have an effect on fuel consumption and emissions. While the oil filter's job is to remove oil contaminants, the air filter captures airborne contaminants, like bugs and dirt, preventing them from entering your engine. Left unchanged, dirty air and oil filters can lead to poor acceleration, lower gas mileage, poor engine performance and serious repairs. Ensure your vehicle runs well this year and for years to come by visiting you local Canadian Tire auto service department for more tips and maintenance products. - News Canada
Don’t put off car care Deferred maintenance can cost you way more in the long run. Don’t be tempted to put off regular vehicle maintenance as a money saving measure - the best way to save is to protect your investment. Plan to schedule those routine visits to ensure your car is in good working order and don’t put off activities like oil changes and tunes up. 1. Consider changing out spark plugs for ones that offer a faster, more efficient burn. Autolite XP Xtreme Performance spark plugs ignite the gas and air mixture inside the cylinders more efficiently than .8mm finewire, multi-electrode and standard plugs, resulting in improved throttle response and acceler-
ation. This, in turn, helps provide top fuel efficiency over the life of the plug. 2. Ask your technician to use synthetic oil and a filter like the Fram Extended Guard The Synthetic Oil Filter. It may cost a little more up front, but you’ll be able to go 11,000 kilometers before your next oil and filter change. Your owner’s manual will tell you what kind of oil to use and how often to have it changed. 3. Ensure your vehicle has received the proper cooling system maintenance. Prestone experts suggest that neglected antifreeze/coolant can lead to corrosion, overheating and boil overs. - News Canada

Terriers beat league best Bombers By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After a three game losing streak in the middle of their seven game road trip put the Terriers in third place in the Sherwood Division standings the Terriers bounced back in a big way, topping off two straight wins on the road with a regular season classic victory over the league best Flin Flon Bombers in their home return. Going into the final stretch of their seven game road trip the Terriers found themselves struggling for the first time all season as goaltending and penalty kill woes led to 6-2 and 4-0 losses to Humboldt and Flin Flon pushing their record on the road trip to 2-3 with two games left to right the ship. A bounce back 6-3 win over the Ice Wolves in La Ronge led by a Patrick Martens hat trick and four point night pushed the Terriers to .500 on the road trip and shook the Terriers out of their mid-November funk. Dylan Johnson scored his second goal of the season while Austin Bourhis rounded out the notable Terrier offensive performances with two assists from the blueline in the impressive win. Dawson MacAuley got the start in goal and had a strong 29 save performance. Friday night saw the Terriers close out their road trip in Weyburn with a chance to salvage a winning record during their seasons most difficult stretch. Chase
Norrish and Nathan Murray both notched a goal and an assist each to lock up a 3-1 win behind MacAuley’s near shutout performance to push their final record for the road trip to 4-3. The game got physical in the dying moments as Weyburn’s Robert Wilkinson’s checking from behind penalty with
six minutes left saw Kalium Gervais take exception seeing both players earn game misconduct penalties and fighting majors. John Niebrandt was also assessed a game misconduct in the late minute antics caused by the Red Wings. With their road trip duties all wrapped up the Ter-
riers got to return to the FAA with a rubber match against the Flin Flon Bombers as their reward. The Terriers ended the Bombers undefeated start to the regular season at home before losing to the Bombers 4-0 during the road trip. Cont. on Page 25.
DAYLAN GATZKE opens the scoring in the Terriers return to home action Sunday night against the Bombers. The Terriers won with just seven seconds left to beat the league best Bombers for the second time at home this season.
Harvest win two straight in home return By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
A trip home seems to be just what the doctor ordered for the Yorkton Harvest as the struggling club won two straight over last place Beardy’s Blackhawks over the weekend to chip away at the gap between them and the other teams battling for the final playoff spots. Going 2-5 on their Harvest Showdown imposed roadtrip saw the Harvest sitting at just seven points on the season heading into their weekend homestand with the Blackhawks. Luckily for the Harvest Beardy’s has had even worse struggles this season, posting a 1-122 record heading into Yorkton for the weekend giving the Harvest an am-
ple opportunity to rack up some easy points to get back into the mix. Opportunity was not passing by the Harvest as they got out to a flying start to the weekend, dominating play and riding three unanswered goals in the second period to a 5-2 victory in game one of the weekend set. A total team performance that saw eight different Harvest players earn points set the tone for the weekend with Carson Cayer getting two goals in the win. 48-21 was the shot count in a game that didn’t see much action for Carson Bogdan who got the start over Spencer Bombior and made the saves he was required to make in what was a welcoming slow night for the Harvest goaltending.

Sunday saw a similar story as the Harvest dominated the shot count and held off an inspired second period performance from the Blackhawks to take the Sunday matinee 5-3. The Harvest made the game 3-0 after the first period with goals from Jaden Kreklewich, Logan Herchak and Landon Nichol giving them a commanding lead that was looking like it would grow as Beardy’s was once again getting visibly outplayed. The Blackhawks did end up showing they have pride despite being in last place with a second period that was the most competitive of the weekend with three goals on the period. Cont. on Page 24.

Saints Boys volleyball team headed to provincials By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer With most schools wrapping up their volleyball seasons and heading into basketball preseason, Sacred Heart’s boys volleyball team has one more weekend as they went to Melville for 4A Regionals this past weekend and advanced to the Provincial Championships. The Saints Senior Boys Volleyball team competed in Melville in a six team tournament to determine who would be the three seeds to come out of their region. Oxbow, Kipling and Kamsack were placed in Pool A; while Melville Comprehensive, Sacred Heart and Esterhazy made up Pool B. The gold, silver, and bronze winners of the tournament would advance to the Provincial Championship on November 23-24. After round robin play Oxbow took first in Pool A, Kipling placed second and Kamsack took the last spot. Sacred Heart took 1st in Pool A after a strong round robin performance, Esterhazy took second and MCS placed last in the group. Only the top two teams from the round robin moved onto the playoffs eliminating Kamsack and MCS from contention and setting up Oxbow-Ezterhazy in the semi finals and Sacred taking on Kipling in the other Pool A Vs.Pool
B semifinal matchup. In the 1st semi-final match, Oxbow defeated Esterhazy in two straight sets to advance to the Regional Final and secure a spot in the Provincial Championships. Sacred then faced Kipling with a chance to secure their ticket to the big dance. Both teams fought extremely hard exchanging points throughout the sets with 25-23 and 22-25 scores in the first two sets setting up a third set with a guarantee to next weekend on the line. Sacred won the final set convincingly 25-17 to advance to play Oxbow in the final and to lock up a berth to the final tournament next weekend. In the gold match the Saints faced Oxbow. Sacred Heart played the late semifinal match which gave Oxbow an advantage as they were well rested and waiting for the Saints who just played a grueling three set match to get into the final. The Saints team ran out of gas and was overtaken by Oxbow in two sets 14-25 and 10-25 giving Oxbow Regional gold and the Saints settling for silver but accomplishing the all important goal of advancing to provincials. The third seat to provincials went to Esterhazy, who eliminated Kipling in the bronze match. Oxbow,
Sacred Heart and Esterhazy now advance to the provincial tournament in Nipawin as part of the ten team, two pool tournament. Last season the region had great success as Oxbow took gold at Provincials and the Saints took fourth place after losing in the bronze medal match. The finish marks the second straight year that the Saints have advanced to the Provincial Championship, something coach Curtis Moen takes pride in “I am very proud of the team to advance to Provincials two years in a row,” said Moen. Moen pointed out four key players on the weekend mentioning Derek Marshall’s passing, Colin Shewchuk’s setting, Jaedon Pellatt’s hitting and Brendon Walkington’s blocking at the net as key contributions on the weekend. Moen noted that the Saints going into provincials will be a much different team than the one during the season as he finally has his entire roster committed to the team for the final stretch. “We have a strong group of grade 12’s, but we have been very inconsistent this season as many of the players have missed tournaments for football or soccer. I now have the full squad focused on provincials and we look forward to fine tuning the team before leaving for Nipawin.”
Pee Wee AA Terriers win gold in Prince Albert By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The Yorkton Sherring Gold Terriers Pee Wee AA team travelled to the 15 team Prince Albert Winter Classic this past weekend, taking home the gold medal with a 4-0 record. The Terriers ran through the competition on their way to the final defeating the Saskatoon Fury 10-2 and the Warman Wildcats 10-3 to advance to the A-Side semifinals. In the semifinals the Terriers showed no signs of slowing down with an 8-2 win over the prairie Storm to advance to the A Side Championship where they were to take on the Lloydminister Blazers for the tournament title. In the final the Terriers found themselves up against tougher competition as expected, but the result was ultimately similar as the Terriers win a hard fought 5-3 affair to take the Winter Classic gold in convincing fashion. The Pee Wee squad beat their opponents by a combine twenty three goals with a combined 33-10 scoreline over the opponents to take the tournament gold, an impressive feat at any tournament or level of hockey. The Pee Wee Terriers will now look to continue their success and consistent play throughout the season as they will continue to head to tournaments in their AA schedule.

Blue Jays big moves flashback to 92/93 glory Just three weeks ago the Toronto Blue Jays were a laughing stock in the American League East. They let their manager John Farrell walk to their in division rival Red Sox and after their dismal season ended without much promise, there was very little excitement around the ballclub. No playoff appearances since 1993 an a division that arguably has four of the potential best teams in baseball next season would give any fanbase a case of hopelessness, but it seemed like animosity between the Jays ownership in Rogers and the fans was about to reach a tipping point. Cue last week. Around early evening midweek rumours started floating around involving the Blue Jays and the Florida/Miami Marlins involving pitcher Josh Johnson and unnamed players. Johnson has been a serviceable starter despite injuries for the past few seasons and his addition to the starting rotation was big, but not huge
news. Then as reports continued to leak on twitter it started to look very evident that the Jays were going to take advantage of the Marlins firesale eventually taking all of the Marlins big name players in a 12 player deal that sent Jose Reyes, Johnson, Mark Buehrle, Emilio Bonifacio and John Buck to the Jays in exchange for Yunel Escobar and some of the top level prospects in the Jays minor league system. The trade was so lopsided in MLB talent that it took MLB brass until Tuesday to approve of a deal that has now made the Jays one of the most talked about teams in baseball and instant contenders for the playoffs. The Jays were not down as they brought back manager John Gibbons who led the Jays to their highest finish in the AL East since ‘00 in his first stint as manager and signed outfielder Melky Cabrera to a deal to further bolster the lineup. With the moves the
Ruttig’s rants Column Chase Ruttig
Jays have added two proven MLB pitches in Buehrle and Johnson with Buehrle pitching a perfect game and winning a World Series with the White Sox before moving down to the Marlins last year, and Johnson will give the Jays more dpeth and could be due for a solid year after fully healing from Tommy John surgery. Pressure will now be off Ricky Romero to be the staff ace and the additions of former NL batting champ Reyes and the talented Cabrera the Jays add to what could be the best lineup in baseball with Edwin Encarnacion and Jose
Bautista getting protection at the top of the order. While the success of these moves will not be known until the new look Jays take the field all of this news and attention on the Jays harkens back to a time before I was even born, when the SkyDome was the biggest attraction in sports and the Jays were the best team in baseball. Great support from Labbatt who then owned the team brought in superstar players like Jack Morris, Dave Winfield and David Cone to a stadium that was filled to a 50, 000 plus capacity every night.
Harvest out of cellar with two wins Cont. from Page 22
The Harvest were not to be denied the full weekend points as Lynndon Pastachak scored the final two goals of the game to close the door on Beardy’s comeback hopes. After the four points the SMAAHL standings see the Harvest three points behind the Swift Current Legionnaires and the Notre Dame Argos in the battle for the final playoff spots. Battleford and the Saskatoon Blazers sit seven points ahead giving a small cushion between the middle of the pack and the final spots. Five of the playoff bound teams sit ten points up on the Harvest at the 15 game mark of the season, making it likely that the Harvest will be battling
in the middle of the standings for the rest of the season. A crucial series between the Legionnaires at the FAA December 1/2 will serve as a measuring stick for the Harvest’s expectations going into the second half of the season as they look to develop consistency in getting back to .500. The good news is that the harvest are 4-5-1 in their last ten games with Swift Current being 1-7-1-1 in that span. If the Harvest can keep up with their .500 pace they have had since their losing streak to begin the season they will be able to continue to catch back ground with the teams they are chasing. Next action for the Harvest will be back on the road as
they wrap up their three game homestand and head to play the fourth place Regina Pat Canadians before heading to Wilcox to play the cellar dwelling Hounds in what will be a must win two points before Swift Current comes to town for their two game set at the FAA that could have serious early season playoff implications with both teams battling for the last spot in the postseason. After putting themselves in a hole to start the season, the Harvest have slowly chipped their way back into the mix. More work is needed to be done, but this week the Harvest are on a roll and on the path to being a winning team for the first time all year.
Canada’s support for the Jays was repaid by the ownership who brought in players that gave the country and the city of Toronto something magical. With the Expos gone, the Blue Jays are now Canada’s team and with all 162 Blue Jays games broadcast on Rogers getting record ratings fans were reaching a point of animosity in seeing the Jays cap their spending at a pace that rendered them unable to compete in a division with the big budget Yankees and Red Sox. Sure teams have had flash in the pan success spending little money in the AL as the Tampa Bay Rays and Oakland Athletics come to mind, but it is a general rule that to become a winner in the MLB you have to spend. The Jays were quietly making great budget moves in bringing in Bautista, Encarnacion, and escobar into the lineup, but the writing was on the wall that a serious commitment from ownership was needed if they wanted to contend for real. Now they have that commitment, with five months to opening day and plenty of time left to add free agents the Jays are already all in and are an attractive market once again. More players can and will be needed to be brought in to finish what is still a team that could use a few more pieces to its
puzzle. Pitching is still an issue and health concerns were a big problem last season, but Mark Buehrle and Josh Johnson are not top of the rotation guys on a championship or pennant winning team even with their track records of solid seasons. A staff ace would be costly, but it is likely the final move the Jays will have to make to guarantee themselves the 90 plus win season they will need to make the playoffs out of the most competitive division in baseball. Regardless of the breakdown of the deal and if the Jays will be winners at the end of September, baseball is finally back to the forefront in the country. A team as hard to root for as the Blue Jays deserves this and next season the Rogers Centre will be bringing back the memories of the SkyDome days. Something that a generation of Blue Jay fans who have stayed faithful to the team from the Carlos Delgado days, to the Roy Halladay era to present day and deserve to see their team make noise deep into summer and the fall for the first time in what will be 20 years. “It is a great day to be a Blue Jay fan,” has been one of the most popular statements in the past week, it is very hard to argue. Five months til Opening Day, I for one can’t wait.

Jarvis wins 2012 RMF Coach of the Year
By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
With the 2012 high school football season all but over, it was awards week for Regina Minor Football as they honored the best players, coaches, and volunteers for the 2012 season and the YRHS Jr. Football team was recognized for its magical second half with Mike Jarvis winning Bantam Coach of the Year honors.
Jarvis led his YRHS Jr Raider Gridders to a 4-4 regular season record after starting the season with four straight losses before taking his team to it first ever playoff wins and eventually the RMF Championship Game where they lost a hard fought battle to the undefeated Regina Raiders. Jarvis exhibited great motivational skills throughout the season, making his players
Terriers win late Cont. from Page 22.
Kale Thomson was given the start in goal for the Terriers after two straight starts from Dawson MacAuley while Devin Buffalo was looking to repeat his shutout performance in goal for the Bombers. A shutout would not be in the cards for Buffalo as Daylan Gatzke scored off of a deflection 2:59 into the first period to give the Terriers a lead less than five minutes into their home return. Brenden Poncelet took advantage of a undisciplined unsportsmanlike conduct penalty to add a powerplay tally to make it 2-0 halfway through the second period. Tyler Giebel and Tayler Thompson added goals to put the Terriers up 4-1 and gave the FAA faithful some relief in a three goal cushion. A quick goal from the Bombers Brett Penner made the score 4-2 and a very questionable cross checking penalty given to Chase Norrish gave the Bombers a five minute major powerplay and swung momentum out of the Terriers direction. The Bombers capitalized early in the powerplay, but clutch penalty kill defense and some steady saves from Thomson killed the rest of the Bombers powerplay and kept the score at 4-3. Flin Flon would not be denied as more pressing in the Terriers zone led to Brett Bohem’s fifteenth goal of the season to tie the game up at 4-4 with under two minutes to go in the third period. Overtime was looming, but Tayler Thompson had other plans as he scored with just seven seconds left in the game to give the Terriers the two points in what was the most entertaining SJHL contest of the season. Thompson, who was playing in just his second game in nearly a month scored the Terriers final two goals and added an assist in a comeback performance. With the win the Terriers now sit in first place in the Sherwood Division standings tied with the suddenly red hot Notre Dame Hounds, who are winners of eight straight. A home/away series with Melville on the weekend looms with the Millionaires on a three game losing streak and sitting two points behind the Terriers and Hounds after looking great to start the season. Two wins for the Terriers over their rivals could give them a six point cushion over the Millionaires and create some separation in what is now a three horse race for the top spot in the Sherwood Division. Expect physical and entertaining hockey to be on display as the last series between the Mills and the Terriers in October resulted in two identical 4-3 shootout wins split between the two teams in what was two very even and tightly contested games. The Terriers have a chance to put salt in the wounds of their limping rivals and put Melville on panic alert with a weekend sweep, only time will tell if the rivalry game will wake up the Millionaires or if it is the Terriers time to take back bragging rights in the Highway 10 rivalry.
come together as a unit and believe that they could achieve something special, something that was evident after they rattled off six straight wins en route to the championship. Coach Jarvis said he was honored he won the award at the annu-

The Sacred Heart Sr. Girls Volleyball team took part in the SHSAA 4A Girls Provincials this weekend in Regina.

The Lady Saints began play Friday afternoon against Nipawin winning a very tough match in straight sets, 25 – 20 and 25 – 21. Morgan Shymanski was named player of the game for the Saints. the Saints then dropped two games to very good squads in Assiniboia and Macklin.

Lady Saints vball falls short at provincials very close first match 22 – 25. The second set was another great match with Oxbow winning 15 – 25 to knock the Saints out of the tournament with a very admirable performance in their first trip to the 4A Championships. Oxbow eventually won Provincial gold, giving the Saints loss some perspective as they battled hard against the best team in the province in a game that could have went the Saints way had they scratched out the first set. Coach Enns was happy with his girls performance in their final weekend saying, “Our first trip to Provincials was a great experience for the entire team especially the younger players who can use this experience for next year. Enns also wanted to thank his Grade 12 players for their dedication and congratulate his team for their effort all season saying, “The entire team played so well this weekend, especially senior players Kaitlin Inglis, Shayla Merriam, Lauren Leshchyshyn and Rebbeca Maroquin.”
