From Dragon’s Den – to Yorkton – Bruce Croxon talks business

By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer

SIGN BBQ – The Society for the Involvement of Good Neighbours has been a large part of Yorkton and area for 43 years, but some people might not be aware of what the organization does in the community. That’s why they recently held a community awareness barbecue in the city, to give people a chance to have fun, celebrate community and learn a bit more about the multitude of services and programs that SIGN administers throughout Yorkton. Pictured above, Paisley Duchek gets her face painted at the event.

The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce’s Business Dinner sold out this year, bringing the city’s business community out to see Bruce Croxon. Best known for Dragon’s Den and co-founding dating site Lavalife, Croxon spoke about what he sees as being important for business.

Through Dragon’s Den, Croxon has seen many business ideas from throughout the country, and he says that Canada’s entrepreneurial spirit is reflected through the popularity of the program.

“I firmly believe that Canadian entrepreneurs can hold their own with anyone in the world, I’ll stand by that and put my money behind it,” he says.

Croxon spent the day in Yorkton with business people before his speech in the evening, and he says he’s impressed by what he’s hearing from people in the area. “I heard about the lean times that Saskatchewan went through, Yorkton no exception, and now I’m hearing about some exceptionally good times. You can feel the energy here. People are fired up, there’s opportunity around every corner, and I feel like the other areas of the country which are not as fortunate, need to get their butts to Saskatchewan, they need people to work. That’s a good place to be coming from,” he says.

Part of the talk focused on teamwork. Croxon says that good employees who can be trusted are what keep businesses going and that it’s difficult for most people to do things on their own and succeed.

“Anyone can make money when things are great. It’s when you hit the other side of the curve and you’re grinding that you really notice who you’ve got as a partner and a person who works with you.”

While encouraged by the business environment in the area, Croxon says there are areas in need of improvement, specifically when it comes to banks and loans. “Unless you’re making three million dollars a year and have been doing it for a while, the banks aren’t really interested... My plea to the Canadian banks is to not forget where this came from in the first place, let’s get back to seeding and supporting businesses at the stage they need it most,” he says.

Croxon also used the occasion to make an impassioned defense of the CBC, saying that the public broadcaster is necessary to keep politicians in check and for people to have an impartial voice. He says Canada would suffer a major blow if broadcasting was exclusively private, as Bruce Croxon it is south of the border.

City boundaries expand: annexation deal

By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The City of Yorkton is growing yet again. The city’s boundaries are expanding to the east, with the annexation of two quarter sections of land from the RM of Wallace.

The impetus for the annexation was the sale of the land to a private developer, who wished for the land to be made part of the City of Yorkton. Garry Liebrecht, Reeve of the RM of Wallace says that the developer approached the RM asking to

turn the land over to the city.

“We told them right away there wouldn’t be a problem, we have a good relationship with the city,” Liebrecht says.

The annexation comes soon after the annexation of land from the RM of Orkney, which was settled through the Saskatchewan Municipal Board. Liebrecht says his RM waited to see what the final decision was with Orkney so they knew what the standard rate was to make the transfer as easy as possible.

Mayor James Wilson says

this decision saved rate payers the expense of negotiating the rate for the land. It will cost

Quick fact: Yorkton is the largest city in east-central Sask., with an area of about 14,000 square miles.

the relative ease of working with the city.

This has been the second time in three years that the city and the RM have come to a land deal, and Wilson says that the relationship between Yorkton and the municipality has been strong over that time.

Liebrecht adds that the RM wants to work with the city to get the most use out of the land and benefit citizens of both areas.

“This is our city, we have to get along,” Liebrecht concludes.

the city $31,000 to bring the land within its boundaries, which is 12 times compensation of what exists today.

The plan for the land is not concrete, but will likely involve a mix of different development in the area, with a focus on residential. Wilson says the development will proceed in phases as demand dictates.

The city will be working with the developer to make it as easy as possible for the developer to bring their plan to fruition, and Wilson says that the developer has commented on

Foundation dollars improving health

By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer We see the donations pouring in, but we don’t always get the opportunity to see first hand how the dollars are making a real difference in the community.

Last week Carolee Zorn, Yorkton’s Out of Scope Maternity Manager at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre (YRHC) invited local media into the hospital to see in person how dollars being spent by The Health Foundation are going a long way in improving health care services.

While money is spent in a variety of needed areas, Zorn says she can say without question donations have vastly helped to better the maternity ward at the YRHC. With a definite shortage of nurses, a growing population and nearly double the number of births happening at the local health centre, upto-date equipment is crucial for efficiency. The

– new fetal monitors purchased Health Foundation, she says, is helping to ensure staff at the hospital have what they need to do their jobs.

Among the recent purchases made with donation dollars are two fetal monitors that came with them a price tag of $21,000. It’s needed equipment that Zorn says would be difficult – at best – to do without.

“We were to the point where we were feeling the pressure because the fetal monitors we did have were on their last legs. Sometimes they worked, sometimes they didn’t...” she says.

The new monitors are up-to-date and have full warranty.

“The fetal monitors are an integral part of the work that we do... they help us to see the health of the fetus while it’s still inside the mother by analyzing the baby’s heart beat,” says Zorn.

“We use them everyday and almost on every

patient that we see.

Without them we can still monitor but we have to do it differently and it doesn’t give us that hard, paper graph of what we need to see to determine the baby’s health. We really depend on them in our everyday work.”

They are also a bit of a recruitment tool. Doctors and nurses prefer to go where there is a favorable work environment.

And in spite of ongoing recruitment and retention efforts Zorn says, “We’re strapped for nurses right now... we have nearly double the number of births happening annually and the same number of nurses.”

Bringing in new, modern equipment is another way of helping to boost recruitment and retention.

In 14 years The Health Foundation raised just over $13 million and over 83 per cent, or over $10,700,000, was invested back into medical equipment or facilities.

The medical equipment purchased has clear benefits for everyone in Sunrise health Region says Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation: • “With community support we have improved our doctors’ ability to diagnose medical conditions; • Lives have been saved because of earlier detection and treatment; • There are over 10,000 examinations or procedures done on equipment purchased by The Health Foundation; our residents used to have to travel to Regina or Saskatoon for those services; • That has improved access to medical care and many services are now faster and more efficient.

By supporting the work of The Health Foundation our donors have been part of making our region a better place to live.”

TD gives back for local health Les Arnelien, Area Manager for TD Canada Trust has announced a $12,000 donation to The Health Foundation’s Education and Scholarship Program. This brings TD Bank Financial Group’s total contributions for this scholarship program to $116,000, and brings the total of their contributions to The Health Foundation to $124,000.

“The Health Foundation’s Education and Scholarship Program was launched in 2002 with a generous contribution and a long-term commitment from TD Bank Financial Group, and we are very pleased that this partnership continues to this day,” says Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation.

wanted to start an education and scholarship program for employees of the health region they approached TD Bank Financial Group for funding. Since then, for eleven consecutive years TD Bank Financial Group has provided scholarships for educational courses that contribute to the professional development of nurses or other practicing caregivers in our health region,” adds Arnelien. “The TD Bank believes in education and in giving back to the communities where we do business.

This program allows us to do both of those things and to make a difference in the quality of care available to the people of this area.”

The Health Foundation’s Scholarship Fund awards approximately $24,000 a year to help further the training and education of health care staff in east central Saskatchewan. The TD Bank Financial Group contributes $12,000 annually to fund 50 per cent of the awards.

Since the program started in 2002, there have been 248 awards totaling $231,100. In addition, the TD Bank Financial Group and The Health Foundation have sponsored four workshops in the past four years for nurses and therapists. Rather than sending nurses and therapists out to workshops, we are bringing the workshops here, allowing more people to take specialized training than would otherwise be possible.

“The Health Foundation is very grateful to TD Bank Financial Group for the generous and consistent support to the Education and Scholarship Program,” concludes Fisher. It is fair to say that without the support of TD Bank our education program would not exist. It is exceptional that TD has provided this level of support for eleven consecutive years.

“We are really pleased to have learned that an added benefit of this program is that in some cases it has made it a little easier to recruit healthcare staff to work here.

Most health regions do not have an education program like this one. This education program is a supplement to what the province and health regions ordinarily do.”

Festival/Access partner – film competition now open For the second year it’s back and it’s an opportunity for young, aspiring filmmakers to make their debut.

The Yorkton Film Festival (YFF), in cooperation with Access Communications, has announced the 2013 Access Communications High School Film Competition. This competition is open to high school students of all ages across the province and entry is free of charge.

The winners of each category will have their films screened across the province on Access Communication network.

The theme for the 2013 competition is: Physical Activity – Get Out, Speak Out, Act Out. The YFF is also partnering with Saskatchewan in motion, a provincewide movement that works to get kids moving more. Statistics say less than 15 per cent of Saskatchewan kids get the physical activity they need every day.

Increasing the physical activity of the kids we care about is a shared responsibility between families, schools and communities to ensure they each do their part to make sure kids get the minimum of 60 minutes of physical activity every day.

For the first time in history, children and youth are expected to have a shorter and less healthy life than their parents.

Cathie Kryzanowski, General Manager of Saskatchewan in motion says the partnership is a creative way to allow youth to showcase their creative talents and share their messages on the physical activity issue with a broad audience.

“This is a great opportunity for kids to use the power of video to draw attention to the issue and get the ears of community leaders and decision makers.”

Entry rules are as follows: • Entries must relate to the theme of the competition and fall into a category, listed below, to be to be accepted. Films must be no longer than 6 minutes.

• Release forms for all persons appearing in films must be submitted with entry form. Entries that do not include release forms will be disqualified from competition. All music and stock-footage used must be properly licensed.

• Films must be submitted to the Yorkton Film Festival on DVD with completed entry and release forms by March 30, 2013. The mailing address is: Yorkton Film Festival 49 Smith Street East Yorkton, SK S3N 0H4 Categories • Animation – Any frame by frame or computer-assisted animated film or video that relies primarily on creative animation techniques to tell a story.

• Performing Arts and Entertainment – Programs which use music and/or performance to entertain or showcase artistic achievement.

• Comedy – Any work, in any genre, intended to elicit laughter or provide humour. Includes all forms of comedy.

• Drama – Programs that include the dramatic portrayal of characters, settings, life situations and stories.

• Experimental – A filmmaker’s expression, in any genre, using unconventional and innovative production practices and techniques.

• Documentary – Nonfictional productions intended to document some aspect of reality.

OTTENBREIT HONORED – Yorkton’s MLA Greg Ottenbreit was recently honored with the Hal Rogers Fellow, the highest award that Kin Canada bestows. The award is presented to individual Kin, Associate Members, alumni and non-Kin who, by their leadership, accomplishments and community endeavours, have demonstrated the high ideals to which Kin Canada Founder Hal Rogers was committed. The award has been given to people such as Bob McGrath, Wayne Gretzky and Celine Dion.

Ottenbreit’s work with the Kinsmen and the charities established to honor his late son’s legacy, Brayden Ottenbreit’s Close Cuts for Cancer and the Brayden Ottenbreit Memorial Book Fund were cited as the reasons to receive the honor. Ottenbreit says he was surprised and humbled to receive the award. He also says the award needs to be shared with his wife Leone, who is as important as he is in all of their charity events. He also says he wouldn’t have been able to achieve what he has without the support of the community.

FULL OF LIFE – Hey there, my name’s Charlie.

I’m a seven month old male Lab cross. My favorite things are playing with kids and running around, so you know if you’ve got a loving, responsible family that’s also active and loves fun, I’m the dog for you. To learn more come visit the SPCA or call 783-4080.

Celebrating Sask. women We wouldn’t be where we are today were it not for our women.

Saskatchewan residents are joining with all Canadians in celebrating Women’s History Month throughout October, and the first International Day of the Girl on October 11.

Women’s History Month is celebrated each year, and provides an opportunity to recognize and appreciate how women have shaped our history, and to acknowledge the vital contributions women make to strengthen our economy, our communities and our families.

Saskatchewan’s theme for the month is “Women and Girls Shaping Saskatchewan’s Future”, recognizing the passion and energy that young women and girls bring to their leadership roles as innovators and changemakers in their communities.

“I encourage all Saskatchewan residents to reflect on the important contributions of women and girls to the growth and prosperity of our province,” Minister responsible for the Status of Women June Draude says. “Each year, more and more Saskatchewan women assume leadership roles in boardrooms across our province, and our country. Our young women and girls are also helping to chart a course for the future through their leadership roles on student councils, community youth committees and sports teams, and through their entrepreneurship and community volunteerism.”

A big thank you to all the wonderful women out there!

A safe harvest is a happy, successful harvest ‘Tis the season – TO BE CAUTIOUS! It’s harvest time and while it’s a time to work, work, work, work when the weather is good, safety has to be remembered.

Fall weather has been incredible this year, meaning farmers can go nearly around the clock in an effort to get needed work done, but success shouldn’t, and needn’t, come with a tragic price tag.

While I haven’t heard of many incidents this year – thankfully – the harvest season does tend to bring to mind tragedies of years past. Last year two small boys, just five and seven, were killed after being sucked into the grain within a grain bin hopper they had been playing in. Like being pulled into the undertow of a strong current, their little lives were lost likely before they even realized they were in danger. And that’s the point, children are children. They don’t access danger the same way adults do, no matter how grown up or bright we may think them to be.

A grain trailer is not a place for children to play and if there isn’t sufficient supervision, they have no business being there in the first place. We may be talking about family farming, but we’re also talking about business. Big business in some instances. There is dangerous machinery, many things happening at the same

time and hazards around every corner – not your ideal play zone for children.

Most people know this inherently, but most think it can’t or won’t happen to them and what’s worse, many involve their children the sake of saving hiring Shannon Deveau for an extra hand. You’ve seen it I’m sure. Little Johnny is 10 now... he’s fine to drive tractor, or to pick up dad from the field, after all it’s just a little way down the dirt road, or worse yet, the highway.

Guess what? Little Johnny is a child who should be playing, or maybe doing chores around the house or barn if he’s needed to help out – he’s not a hired farm man who knows the ins and outs of the business no matter if he’s been raised in that atmosphere or not.

In another separate incident a man was killed after being crushed by a hay bale he was attempting to move with a front end loader. Was he over tired? Was he asking more of his equipment than it’s capable of? I guess the whole point here is to THINK. Use common sense.

Harvest time is a busy time with plenty of work to be done. It can be stressful, it’s tough fitting everything in, worrying about the bills, the outcome, family time... but is cutting corners and/or being careless really worth it in the end?

The way I see it...

Column

A cat is a terrible candidate for any public office In Alaska, there is a town with a cat for a mayor. The feline ascended to power as a protest against the mayor at the time, and just sort of stayed there. The 15 year old named Stubbs has been a tourist attraction ever since, and his position is largely honorary. Right now in Halifax a cat named Tuxedo Stan is vying for the mayor’s seat, though it’s actually a campaign to promote spaying and neutering and deal with a stray cat problem in the city. In Virginia, there is a cat running for a senate seat. It is time to remind everyone that a cat in general is a terrible choice for any public office, on any level.

The problem is that cats are fickle, and easily bribed and influenced. They cannot consider issues with a calm and impartial mind. Whoever has the most treats, wins, and all the cats I know are easily influenced by a scratch on the chin. If you want to get a cat off your case, that’s just as easy, throw out a string and it’s going to be running after that and completely disregarding any responsibilities it might have at the given moment. The Rt. Hon. Cat MP might have to put its paw down for a major vote, but then a string is thrown and it’s going to be chasing that for the next several hours.

Of course, a cat can’t debate either, mostly because it can speak neither official language in this country. Oh

Things I do with words...

Column Devin Wilger sure, it can meow at you, but that could mean anything, from an expression of hunger to a disagreement over budget priorities. The unknown meanings of a cat’s utterances make it very difficult for it to represent the issues important to the electorate. The mystery of what a cat is actually trying to say makes it difficult to engage in a serious conversation with the animal, which is not important when it’s just a creature that sleeps on the arm of your couch, but is important in an elected representative.

Sleeping is another point where a cat is ill qualified.

Every time an MP, MLA, or municipal politician is caught sleeping on the job it’s a major controversy.

What happens when it’s a cat, something that spends the majority of its day sleeping? It’s not a matter of if the cat is sleeping on the job, but when, and how much.

It could be asleep for the entirety of its term, not accomplishing much at all and generally being a drain on taxpayers.

There’s also the matter of public appearances, something any politician has to do a large number of times every week. That’s fine for a human, even a relatively grumpy human, but a cat is going to be terrible at this part of politics. Some might disagree, even going so far to suggest a cat would be great – see the aforementioned cat mayor in Alaska – but it is clear that a cat is going to be poor at this, due to the above points. It cannot actually do public speaking, it is going to fall asleep in conversations, it will get easily distracted by all of the stimuli in the area, and eventually your elected representative will hide under a table and lick itself.

Not the behavior one expects in their politicians.

So plainly, cats shouldn’t be elected to any position, it’s just not something that is within their skill set. It’s not to say cats aren’t good for anything, they can keep pests at bay and can liven up the house with their antics. But when it comes to elected officials, we don’t have any options other than the traditional human selections.

Your letter of the Week

Leverage assets for prosperity Lougheed’s

To the Editor:

Canadians are used to thinking of energy in a big way.

Reshaping Northern Québec with dams for massive hydro-electric projects; digging up Northern Alberta with the oil sands; massive fracking operations in southwestern Saskatchewan; offshore oil wells in the stormy North Atlantic, even hectares upon hectares filled with solar panels or wind turbines, farming the breezes and sun.

We are blessed with a bounty few other nations have. Yet, in the process, we often overlook the smaller scale opportunities that could help sustain our towns and cities.

Take the town dump, for example.

Dumps naturally give off methane as the trash slowly decomposes. Methane, in turn, is 70 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas.

But methane has another name: natural gas. If a town capped its dump, captured the methane, and used it to do work they’d otherwise have to buy gas (or some other fuel) for, they’d save some money and convert the methane into carbon dioxide through its use, reducing its effect on the environment.

By using that gas to run a district heating system for example, they’d lower the cost for people to live there, or businesses to locate there – an economic incentive that didn’t require a tax giveaway.

In other words, smaller scale doesn’t interest big corporations half as much as it can interest you, me, and the places we live.

There’s all sorts of free energy waiting out there. Another example: we can get energy from the lo-

cal water tower when gravity sends it back down as it’s used simply by putting a turbine in the pipe. It’s a “run of river” hydro facility but installed inside our civic infrastructure, instead.

Why does this matter? After all, we get electricity from the grid, gas comes in pipelines, and we’ve got lots of it.

We’re used to thinking in terms of money as the differentiator between our community and the other ones around it. That’s how different jurisdictions get into battles to see who can offer a major new factory the biggest tax break and the cheapest land and services to attract them (and their employment).

Suppose we started thinking about offering things in kind, instead. “Come here, we have really cheap gas for your factory. Come here, we have really cheap electricity.”

We could think even more audaciously if we wanted. A city like Mississauga in Ontario wants to build out an LRT system to serve its citizens. Needless to say, a lot of other Ontario municipalities also want improved transit systems.

Finding the money can be a struggle. Getting it built now? Almost impossible.

In Dresden, Germany, a central city location was used to build a new Volkswagen auto assembly plant: the “Transparent Factory”.

Why in the centre of a historic city and not on the outskirts? Dresden’s convention centre wasn’t doing that well, anyway, and that meant the land could be sold. In turn, its LRT system could be used to bring in the parts, keeping trucks off the roads.

Yes, the same rails that run public transit also bring in auto parts, on specially-designed small vehicles that fit well on city streets.

The increased economy has allowed Dresden to expand service to its citizens without increased taxes.

Mississauga, in other words, could think the same way, serving its industrial economy and providing for its citizens’ needs at the same time. “Join us in the capital investment, and save on your operating costs for years to come.”

Canada does have cities with strong forward planning. What is generally still missing is the notion of looking at everything our towns or cities do and ways to leverage it. Vancouver, for instance, is using its Green City approach to work with transit corridors – but it’s not looking at how to use those corridors to create jobs, or how to heat or power refurbished zones to make them attractive. The integration across many different sources and disciplines still isn’t there.

But it can be, and that’s the point.

New Urbanist-trained architects are used to running what they call a charette to bring a community together to help specify what they want and to make sure a multiblock change works for everyone.

This same process could be used to identify opportunities and overcome specialization, so that ideas to power our local economies forward can be put on the table.

There’s opportunity and free sources of energy all around us.

Time to put them to work, and grow our economy, one town after another.

Bruce Stewart, Toronto, ON.

Food safety failures dog Ritz and Harper To the Editor:

At federal budget time last spring, I raised concerns about Stephen Harper slashing the Government of Canada at the expense of public safety.

Keeping Canadians healthy and safe is every government’s first obligation.

So it’s odd to see so many Conservative cuts eroding border services, prison security, our spy agency, maritime search-andrescue, consumer product labeling, emergency planning, environmental protection, crime prevention and, of course, food safety.

About the latter – Canadians want to be absolutely confident about the quality and integrity of our

food supply. Like Medicare, hockey, the Rockies and the Roughriders, our superlative food system is a defining characteristic of this country, but we can’t take it for granted.

In the biggest E.colitainted meat recall in Canadian history, the behaviour of the slaughterhouse at the root of it all (XL Foods at Brooks, AB) has been an appalling combination of incompetence, indifference and arrogance. And the federal government is no better.

The contamination originated on August 24th.

But it was only detected 12 days later (Sept. 4th), when US authorities reported unacceptable E.coli levels in beef exported to them. Agriculture Minis-

ter Ritz was informed the very next day, but trouble persisted.

On September 13th, Canada’s Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) ordered XL to stop exporting to the Americans. But it took another three days (Sept. 16th) before any public warnings were issued to Canadians, and another 11 days (Sept.

27th) before the plant was shut-down.

Product recalls have skyrocketed, and four directly connected illnesses have been confirmed. The company recently issued an anonymous recording to admit its errors.

CFIA is now saying it “won’t pretend” mistakes weren’t made. But the Harper Cabinet continues in absolute denial.

They claim they’ve hired more meats inspectors, but they can’t say exactly who they are, what jobs they perform or where they’re located.

They claim CFIA has all the money it needs, but they won’t explain a $56-million cut in last spring’s budget. They claim their system has functioned well, but why then are consumers, cattle producers, processors and exporters suffering crippling losses and other damages.

What does this fiasco have in common with the deadly listeriosis crisis in Canadian meat products in 2008? In both cases, Gerry Ritz was in charge.

Saskatchewan infrastructure needs innovation

To the Editor:

Most people don’t give a lot of thought to what it takes for them to get to their destination every day.

Restrict their ability to travel freely and it’s a different story. Reliable transportation and infrastructure is important for education, health care and social interaction. It is a part of our everyday lives.

There’s an old saying: “It takes a village to raise a child.” The same concept applies to the growth of our population and its impact on our municipalities and their infrastructure. Provincial and federal programs must support the development of core and essential infrastructure such as roads, water and sewage facilities, land drainage facilities, solid waste facilities, transit, parks and buildings.

Constrained by other levels of government, municipalities face difficult decisions on how to spend their limited funds, and are hesitant to raise property taxes for infrastructure. Decades of reduced investment has created a backlog of maintenance and repair work required to get our roads back to their intended design life. Now more than ever, we need national and provincial programs paired with public policy commitment to designate funds to infrastructure investment.

Growing communities need to focus on the construction of new assets such as roads, water/sewage systems, schools, and hospitals.

They also need to repair and replace their existing infrastructure, often to keep up with the demands of a growing population. Taking a disciplined approach to determining

infrastructure priorities provides governments and industry with the direction they need.

We also need a long-term vision for infrastructure. Cyclical capital programs can cost taxpayers more.

Tendering projects during periods of lower demand (over the winter months) would likely yield better infrastructure pricing and allow the industry to begin work as soon as the ground conditions permit.

It’s time for government to look at the infrastructure deficit as an opportunity and not as a problem we may never solve. We can’t keep funding our infrastructure through traditional means; it’s simply no longer working. It is time government did things differently!

true legacy?

To the Editor: Peter Lougheed was given a full state funeral, the first ever for a former Alberta premier. The big capitalist media universally praised him. Prime Minister Stephen Harper called Lougheed a visionary and patriot.

“Every single one of us woke up this morning in Peter Lougheed’s Alberta,” said Alison Redford, Alberta’s current premier.

These are true words, yet they fail to reassure those of us opposed to the course set by Lougheed.

Before he resigned as premier in 1985, the 1980 recession devastated Alberta’s petroleum manufacturing industry, one of the world’s largest. Today Alberta is more reliant on resources than ever, especially petroleum, and tar sands development is spurring catastrophic global climate change.

Behind the hoopla, the funeral was a lament that big business can provide no great vision or solutions to get us out of the trouble Lougheed has created for Canada.

Those of us in the left and popular movements in Alberta who grew up when Lougheed was premier have a different memory of his legacy. He was not a liberal or Red Tory, as the many protests we organized attest.

His party’s 1971 victory over Social Credit, which had been in power since 1935, represented the end of any aspiration of the petit bourgeois for influence in the Alberta state.

His victory meant the total take over of the province by big corporate interests, and Lougheed was their face.

Lougheed’s true legacy is serving the large oil and gas corporations, mainly foreign owned. For them, he won more provincial control over resources at the expense of the rest of Canada, laying the groundwork for the Balkanization of Canada. His approach, such as an elected Senate, rejected the equality of nations in Canada by strengthening provincial rights. This helped regional capitalist interests ready to sell out to U.S. and other foreign corporations.

Accelerating a process started by SocialCredit, Lougheed’s government enriched the giant transnational corporations by handing over the province’s rich natural resources.

Lougheed placed these resources even farther from the reach of Aboriginal peoples or the people of Canada. He was patriotic only to money.

Lougheed’s provincial rights agenda is a danger to the future of Canada itself. It gave the Reform Party and its present embodiment in Ottawa, Stephen Harper, a great weapon to dismantle Canada.

The Reform Party’s solution to Quebec’s demands for increased sovereign powers was to give each province the same powers.

In 1997, the growing influence of the Reform party led every non-Quebec premier to sign the Calgary Declaration, which proclaimed that all provinces must have legal equality.

Although Lougheed supported the failed 1992 Charlottetown Accord as a way to “bring Quebec back into Canada” and to achieve a province based elected Senate, he led Harper and our big business overlords to their present reactionary position. They will now reject any concessions to Quebec unless these further entrench the reactionary, anti Aboriginal and anti Quebec federal system imposed by the British in 1867.

It is a vision of federalism that denies the equality of nations and their right to self determination. It is a vision that continues the inequality of Aboriginal nations and Quebec. It is a vision that divides workers.

Harper gave Lougheed a state funeral for his dedicated service to the oil corporations, not to the people.

The farmer is trained, moves on and settles in Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This is the 16th of a series on getting settled in Hazel Dell.

The broilers had grown to resemble sumo wrestlers, and today they will end up in various freezers.

Nice plump birds, fed totally organic feed and grown to about six pounds each without any steroids or other growth hormones! The chicken pluckers Donna and Leona were here and hard at work!

There were feathers flying in every direction!

The dogs ran for cover. The first couple of chickens were easy to catch, but when my wife showed up for the next batch with blood splatters in her face and on her clothes, the remaining chickens took one look at her and went into hiding!

The ducks realized that they were safe, at least for now and just huddled in the far corner.

My wife had placed an old truck canopy in the broiler yard for shelter,

and most of the broilers had run in there thinking they were safe.

They were huddled against the back wall, and almost out of my wife’s reach. She had her chicken catcher in her hand, and old fish catcher net, and she set out to snag some broilers.

The broiler yard is right next to the layer yard, and the layers including the rooster Prince Eric were watching the proceedings carefully. My wife had to crawl under the canopy to catch the broilers, and when she emerged with two of them, she was dirty as a coal miner from the mud.

When the layers and Prince Eric could only see the white in her eyes, Prince Eric let out very loud “cock-a-doodle-do” and they all disappeared into the hen house! The women got into a good routine right away. It went like this: Catch the bird, off with its head, bleed out, dunk in hot water, pluck the feathers, remove the guts and place in a tank with fresh cool water. The

dogs and I just watched in amazement!

At the start of the chicken butchering procedure, the women were all very careful and only grabbed one chicken at the time.

However, as the day wore on, they braved up and started handling two at the time.

In fact Leona was walking to the butcher block with a live chicken in each hand holding them by their feet.

The chickens might have sensed what was about to happen to them, as they raised their heads up by craning their necks, and started flapping their wings.

However, it backfired on the chickens because their flapping effort slightly levitated Leona sending her flying like Mary Poppins, only with two chickens in her hands instead of an umbrella, towards my wife waiting at the butcher block.

Donna had the occasion to carry the last chicken; she was a little complacent as the carrying of a chicken by its feet was now old hat to her. This chicken did

not want anything to do with the procedure and started flapping the wings really hard while at the same time turning. Donna as a result got pulled a bit off balance and the chicken ended up beating on her leg with the flapping wings. In the spirit of the Olympics I awarded the first round of this bout to the chicken. However, the second round was the decisive round, as Donna got in a fowl mood and the chicken lost its head!

When the birds were totally cooled off in the fresh water, they got dried off and transferred to a large plastic bag each and put in the freezer. The women were so good at it, perhaps they should hire out?

A man walked into a restaurant and asked the hostess while being seated: “Do you serve chicken here?”

To which the hostess replied with a smile: “Please sit down Sir, we serve anyone!” He scanned the menu and

ordered Chicken-AlaKing. He took one bite of the chicken, called the waiter over and said: “I won’t eat this chicken! Call the manager!” To which the waiter replied: “I’m sorry Sir! But he won’t eat it either!”

Did you know that the reason chickens lay eggs are because the eggs would break if they dropped them!

When Colonel Sanders (KFC) was asked why the chicken crossed the road, he replied: “I missed one?!”

Growing Forward… ag. help We live in a country rich in resources, beauty, and we boast food quality and quantity second to none.

Since being first elected in 2006, the Conservative government has stood shoulder to shoulder with the farmers of Canada. We helped livestock producers weather the BSE crisis and hay shortages, and we’ve assisted crop farmers with droughts and floods.

We’ve established and enhanced programs and agreements with our provincial partners to provide aid in the face of disaster, and we’ve adapted to ever-changing situations.

When Growing Forward 2, the new agriculture policy framework, was signed by federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz and the provincial agriculture ministers in September, it brought with it a change to the way government agriculture programs work.

Instead of a “one size fits all” mentality, the new framework will allow different regions and provinces the flexibility to adapt programs to best suit their farmers.

Our governments will continue to be there for farmers in cases of significant drops in income and disaster situations.

by Garry Breitkreuz At the same time, we’re refocusing investments on innovation in order to fuel long-term growth across the sector and economic prosperity for all Canadians.

Growing Forward 2 includes an investment of over $3 billion, representing a 50 per cent increase in cost-shared investments in innovation, competitiveness and market development.

Growing Forward 2 takes effect on April 1, 2013, and will be our agriculture framework for the next five years.

During that time, the federal and provincial governments will monitor the Business Risk Management (BRM) programs. Modifications made to AgriStability and AgriInvest in Growing Forward 2 will ensure that Canadian producers continue to have access to a strong and effective suite of BRM programs.

AgriInsurance (crop insurance), AgriRecovery, and the Advanced

Payment Program will continue to help farmers manage production risks and provide cash flow assistance.

Governments will boost coverage for those with negative margins as well as substantially increase farmers’ ability to contribute greater funds into their AgriInvest account.

Our government remains committed to keeping the Canadian economy on the right track, and that includes an agriculture industry that sees growth, creates jobs and has longterm prosperity.

ARMY RESERVE RECOGNITION DAY – Bombardier Matthew Fairbank (l) and his employer Greg Moskal, president of Moskal Mechanical, were honored as part of Army Reserve Recognition Day. The day honors the contributions of Army Reservists throughout Canada and their contributions to the Canadian military.

Fairbank says that it’s important for him to serve his country, and that he is thankful to his employer’s patience as he has to take time off as part of his work with the Reserves. Moskal says it can be trying at times, especially when he loses a valuable employee for weeks at a time, but that it’s a pleasure to let him do what he does.

What’s is a comfort food?

We have all heard of the term “comfort food”... we in fact have all craved it, smelled the aromas from it in anticipation, and of course eaten it.

What is “comfort food” though, exactly? Is it only big bowls of stew-ish type foods on a cold winter day that one eats while wearing pants with a stretchy waistband? Does it exist in climates where it is warm year round?

Comfort food can be, and is, whatever you want it to be by what it means to you. That’s the beauty of it; if by eating it, it gives you a level of comfort, be it physical or emotional, then it can be considered comfort food.

The physical contentment from eating comfort foods would be the warmth felt by the temperature of the dish, or the spiciness of it, and/or even the mouth feel of the richness about it. However pairing these physical sensations with the psychological satisfaction from eating something considered to be a comfort food, is where I think the true definition lies within people and where the pleasure really comes from.

Comfort food can be a dish that stirs up sentimental feelings for example. Maybe a certain aroma and corresponding flavour is linked to a memory of a place once visited, a special time or celebration in one’s life, or of a beloved person.

For example, when I smell turkey and stuffing cooking my mind always takes me back in times to

Chef Dez on Cooking

by Gordon Desormeaux

www.chefdez.com when I was a boy and would come in the house from playing outside on a crisp autumn Thanksgiving day. The warm aromas of sage and turkey blanketing every nook and cranny of our old house revealed to me my Mom’s selfless efforts made by her that morning. Smell is a huge part of the enjoyment of eating and tasting and it has been scientifically proven that our sense of smell is directly linked to memory. This is also the reason we are turned off by some foods or dishes, because the aromas and related tastes are linked to times of unhappiness or ill feelings.

Recipes of a nostalgic nature may also contribute to be classified as comfort foods. Foods from a certain time period or specific culture that trigger emotions may be enough to sanction it into this classification. For instance, on the 17th of March when our table is filled with classic Irish dishes, it not only feels more fitting, but also fulfilling... or comforting.

This is just one example of many celebrations that could include, but not limited to, Asian delights on Chinese New Year,

incredible Indian food on Dwali, or haggis on Robbie Burns Day... yes, there are people that consider even haggis to be comfort food. For those of you not in the Scottish culinary loop, haggis can be defined as a savoury pudding containing a sheep’s organs (heart, liver, and lungs for example) and combined with onion, oatmeal, and spices traditionally encased in the sheep’s stomach and simmered for hours. I am actually quite fond of it myself on occasion as long as it is served warm; once it gets cold I find the texture loses its appeal.

The feel good sensation of comfort food can also be obtained by simply just loving the taste of something, maybe by that of your favorite type of food or favorite recipe; which literally could translate into almost anything for any one individual.

Basically foods that make you feel good because you are consuming something you love to eat. The act of doing so would bring on positive emotions and help to suppress negative feelings, and that alone could be enough to be considered comfort food.

Celebrating Saskatchewan at the Godfrey Dean

By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Godfrey Dean Art Gallery is celebrating its tenth anniversary, and for the next few months it’s looking back.

Treasures from the Vault showcases a wide spectrum of art from Saskatchewan’s history, bringing selections from the Saskatchewan Art Board’s permanent collection to show a variety of work from the past 65 years.

Peter Sametz, Associate Director of the Saskatchewan Arts Board, says that this is just a small selection of the work in the board’s permanent collection of 3,000 art objects which represent all of the different media from traditional forms such as paint and sculpture to work that’s in new media.

“This is our mission statement, to cultivate an environment where the arts thrive. Why? For

the benefit of everyone in Saskatchewan,” Sametz says.

The selection at the Godfrey Dean is a small selection of the larger collection, but Sametz says that it gives a taste of what the Arts Board tries to do, and the way art in the province has changed over the decades.

“As you survey the collection, from the early days to the modern day, you see that evolution of art making processes in the province by the province’s artists. We have over 600 whose work is included in the collection, and the artists whose work is included today, as you might expect, is not the same kind of work that they were making 60 years ago, and you get a taste of that in this exhibition,” Sametz says.

The show was curated

by Don Stein, executive director of the Godfrey Dean, and Sametz credits him with starting the ball rolling to get the one-off

show together for the gallery. He admits that it is rare to have a one-off show like this one, but that they’re proud to work together with the gallery to have a show that celebrates its success.

“Yorkton is a burgeoning, growing community here in the eastern part of the province. We enjoyed very much working with the city on the creation, commission and installation of Lionel Peyachew’s work in Shaw Park, that was our project, and it’s been a few years since we had a major project here in the city. We’re very pleased this project came up, and we’re looking forward to the next one,” Sametz says.

Given the work on display, Sametz says that he hopes everyone makes a stop at the Godfrey Dean while Treasures of the Vault is on display. The show itself runs until December 14, 2012.

PERFECT PORTRAIT – Artist Sarah Fougere paints a portrait of Jennifer McRorie of the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery. Fougere did the live portrait as part of the Treasures from the Vault opening reception, and her art is also on display in the Serpentine Gallery at the Godfrey Dean.

Oct. 7-13 is Fire Prevention Week: have two ways out The Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) along with fire departments and primary and pre-school teachers across the country, have introduced a new tool to help kids and families be better prepared in case of fire: cute and fuzzy bunny rabbits.

“Have Two Ways Out” is this year’s theme for Fire Prevention Week, which runs October 7 – 13. The theme builds on rabbits’ instinct to always have at least two exits from their underground homes leading to safety. Fire Chief Stephen Gamble, president of the CAFC, says families who create and practise an escape plan together, with two ways out of every room if possible, have a better chance of escaping during a real fire emergency.

“An escape plan helps families respond more quickly and calmly when faced with a real fire situation,” Chief Gamble says. “When a smoke alarm sounds, everyone needs to know what to do and where to go. Planning two ways out of each room, ahead of time, greatly increases your chances of getting out without injury.”

Among the “Have Two Ways Out” activities will be a week of home fire escape lessons taught to young children by primary and pre-school teachers, followed by homework assignments encouraging families to prepare and practise an escape plan.

The effort extends through the entire month of October featuring a special web site www.safeathome.ca/twowaysout where families can print out a free home escape plan template. They can also watch for it in the “Have Two Ways Out” homework package which the CAFC designed to help parents, teachers and kids work hand in hand.

Families who register the completion of their plan on line are rewarded with a “Have Two Ways Out” Certificate and the chance to win over $10,000 in prizes including Kidde Escape Ladders, Smoke and Carbon Monoxide alarms. Teachers can also register their classrooms for a chance to win Domino’s Pizza Parties, glow in dark Kidde Sparky Smoke Alarms, and Sparky the Fire Dog plush toys that speak

However, for the sake of the love of the culinary arts we will end it here on a positive note instead.

So, in conclusion, comfort food can be, and is, anything you want it to be, as long as it makes you happy for one reason or another... even if it is just temporary.

Dear Chef Dez: I have heard that “braising” is the best way to make tough meats tender.

Do you agree and what is braising?

Alfred S.

On October 24

James Wilson for

City Councillor

Dear Alfred,

Winnipeg, MB

Marinating is a good way too, but I guess if I had to choose I would pick braising. Braising is a combination of dry and moist heat cooking processes.

First the meat is seared at a high temperature to create a flavourful crust on the meat and then cooked through in a moist heat environment at a low temperature for a long period of time. The low moist heat is what breaks down and transforms tough connective tissue into mouth-watering tender meals. Seared in a hot pan and then cooked in a covered casserole dish with liquid in a 250 to 300 degree Fahrenheit oven for a few hours would be considered braising. Please keep in mind that this is an example only and would depend on the type and size of meat you are cooking.

fire safety messages.

Carol Heller is a home fire safety specialist with Kidde Canada, recognized as the largest smoke and carbon monoxide alarm company in Canada—and a major partner in the CAFC’s annual Fire Prevention Week campaign.

Heller says two more factors are important for families to consider to avoid fire tragedy. “If a false alarm has caused you to take the batteries out of your smoke alarm, or remove it from the ceiling, it won’t be there when you need it most.

“So when your kids come home from school excited to create an escape plan, also make sure smoke alarms are installed and working on every storey of your home,” Heller adds, “Remember that smoke alarms wear out. Replace them every 10 years whether they are battery operated or hardwired into your home’s electrical system.”

Fire Departments play a major part in the safety campaign’s success, building on their established school programs of working hand-in-hand with youngsters and educators. A free home escape plan template and more family fire safety tips can be found online at the campaign website www.safeathome.ca/twowaysout.

Terriers on streak heading into H-10 rivalry

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The Yorkton Terriers can do no wrong in the first stretch of the 2012-13 SJHL season. With three straight wins after their lone loss on the road to their Notre Dame Hounds the Terriers now sit at an impressive 5-1 to open their SJHL campaign.

The Terriers began their weekend winning streak on the road Friday night in Weyburn as the Terriers handled the Red Wings in a 7-2 victory repeating the story from the Terriers first win of the season when they won against the Red Wings in their home opener. Conor Barrie got the start in net for the Terriers and had 33 saves while Kale Thomson got some much deserved rest before the Terriers played at home Saturday night. Dylan Johnson also got his first action of the season and scored his first SJHL goal on his first ever shift while his older brother Jere-

my continued his hot start to the season with a hat trick.

The Terriers then headed back home for a Saturday night clash with the Nipawin Hawks. Saturday night proved to be alright for fighting as the Terriers and Hawks did not shy away from the physical play as the Terriers answered the Hawks insistence of running their hot goalie Thomson in net, resulting in the refs handing out numerous roughing after the whistle calls in the first two periods in an attempt to control the situation.

The Hawks attempts to out tough the Terriers game after a Jeremy Johnson goal three minutes into the game off of a rebound in front of the net that had the Hawks playing catch up from the get go.

Dylan Baer added another marker late in the first period off of another hustle play in front of the net to give the Terriers a 2-0 lead heading into the second period where Tayler Thompson scored one

of the goals of the season going through the Hawks defense and the goalie himself in a highlight reel worthy effort to put the game out of reach at 3-0.

Third period action saw the refs lose control of the game as roughing after the whistle penalties and game misconducts could not prevent the Terriers and Hawks from getting at each other and dropping the gloves as four fighting majors were assessed in the game. Despite the extra activity in the third period it was an impressive performance for the Terriers as they continued their unbeaten streak at the FAA and Kale Thomson earned a twenty-four save shutout.

Win number three of the week came in Estevan Tuesday night as the Terriers cruised to another big win with a 6-1 scoreline. Six different Terriers notched goals in the effort and Conor Barrie got another start in a twenty five save performance, show-

ing signs that the Terriers might have an effective onetwo punch in Thomson and Barrie going forward.

The win put the Terriers two points back of the Millionaires in the Sherwood Conference standings heading into a home and away weekend series between the Highway 10 rivals Friday and Saturday night in their first matchups of the season. Melville has played eight games to the Terriers six and it looks like both teams will be battling for first place in the Sherwood Conference throughout the season after one month, making these Highway 10 battles that much more intense.

Game time for the Terriers home game against the Millionaires this weekend is at its usual seven thirty start Friday night as the Terriers host the Millionaires in what will be a battle for first place and a chance for revenge from the 2012 playoffs in what is sure to be the story of the week in the SJHL.

Harvest Hockey The Yorkton Harvest AAA Midget hockey club is hosting two weekend games at the Farrell Agencies Arena Saturday, October 13 and Sunday, October 14.

Raiders lock up second place heading into playoffs

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer After their heartbreaking loss at Friday Night Lights to Moose Jaw Central, the YRHS Raiders football team bounced back with two straight 40 point performances on offense in wins over Swift Current and Estevan to improve their record to 5-1 and lock up second place in the Moose Jaw football league in their first season.

With their loss to Central the Raiders needed two wins to lock up guaranteed home field advantage in the quarter and semi-final playoff games and to do so needed to win on the road in Swift Current

Thursday night and on Tuesday afternoon at Century Field at home. In Swift Current the Raiders had to fight lag from the long bus ride from Yorkton according to coach Sharpe, but they ended up leading the entire way after allowing a field goal on the opening possession according to Sharpe. Sharpe praised backup tailback and usual receiving option David Balysky, who ran for 200 plus yards in the game saying, “Swift Current gave us the outside all game, and David Balysky did a great job in carrying the ball for us in the second half.” Balysky’s 200 yard effort came after standout starting running back Zack Kais injured his ankle, forcing the Raiders to

adjust and employ out of position players in the backfield.

Kais absence extended to Tuesday’s home game against Estevan, a winless team who were pretty much a lock to face the Raiders in the 2/7 matchup in the first round of playoff action on Saturday. The Raiders gave first year player and normal linebacker Tyson Haas his first ever start at tailback in Kais’ absence and he did not disappoint offensive coordinator Jason Boyda as Haas busted out for a long touchdown in the first half that set the tone for the rest of the game.

YRHS Jr. Raiders head into playoffs with win

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer

The 2012 Regina Minor Football season was really a two part story for the YRHS Jr. Raiders. The first part was one of defeat and learning experience as four straight losses, the last two coming down to the games final drives, place the Raiders at 0-4 and in serious peril of missing the playoffs. Part two however was one of growth and confidence as the team rallied and has finished the season with four straight wins to bump their record the .500 at 4-4 putting them in the middle of the pack with a real chance to make some noise in the RMF playoffs.

Saturday afternoon was the final step in the Raiders regular season turnaround as they needed a win over the Regina Dinos to improve their playoff standing and avoid playing the one or two seeds in the quarterfinals. The Raiders answered the bell, dominating play from start to finish in a 41-24 victory that was capped off with an interception for a touchdown on

the games final play to further help the Raiders tiebreakers for final seeding.

Final playoff standings won’t be known until Thursday with two games left on the RMF schedule on Wednesday night, but head coach Mike Jarvis has the goal and expectation that the Raiders will finish in the middle of the playoff pack and win their quarterfinal matchup wherever they play. As is the norm in the RMF, no matter where the YRHS finishes they will have to travel on the road to play their playoff games in Regina due to the league rules that saw the YRHS senior team jump ship to the Moose Jaw league.

Coach Jarvis was happy with his teams effort in the second half of the season and said, “The biggest change from the first four games of the season was confidence and gelling together as a team.” Going into the playoffs Jarvis expects that his teams power running mantra that they have been using on offense all season will pay dividends as temperatures drop and winds pick up, making

the running game even more of a focal point.

With their 4-4 finish this Raiders squad is the best ever RMF team since joining the 12 man league and has high expectations heading into the postseason and coach Jarvis expects at least a quarterfinal win and feels that he has a team that can potentially take it all the way with a few bounces and a lot of hard work. Just one month ago the Raiders were looking for their first win, now heading into the playoffs, they have championship dreams, not wins, on their mind.

Pee Wee Gridders lose

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer In their last regular season and home game of the year the Pee Wee Yorkton Gridders lost a hard fought game 22-15 to close out their RMF season heading into their bowl game this weekend. The Gridders battled hard throughout the game and fell just short of a game winning touchdown drive in the fourth quarter, allowing the clock to be ran out and ending their season with a home loss.

Coach Noel Budz said in the loss his players still played with a lot of heart, and the loss wasn’t for a lack of will on his players end. The Pee Wee Gridders are a young team that is bound to improve with the addition of the successful Atom Gridders that are going to move up to a team that is going to be returning a lot of players.

Going into the bowl game Budz has no other expectations or goals for the team other than to keep showing the effort they have shown all season.

With the season now coming to a close Budz would also like to thank the parents and the players for the dedication and support they have shown all year. The Gridders will be playing their bowl game in Regina at an undetermined date over the weekend and will be looking to repeat the Pee Wee Gridders success in the bowl game from last season and end their 2012 season out on a winning note.

BRAYDEN JARVIS breaks off a tackle on a huge run in the Raiders 41-24 over the Dinos in their final game of the regular season.

Chipper Jones and the value of championships

The MLB playoffs are well underway and lost in the craziness that was the Wild Card games and the two to four games a day stretch that has been the National and American League Divisional Series is the end of the road for one of the games classiest and underrated players, Chipper Jones.

Jones was the first overall pick in the 1990 MLB draft and unlike many prospects who flame out after being picked in the top selections of the draft, Jones delivered every bit of promise throughout his career after making the Braves team in 1993 after a short two season stint in the minors.

The resume speaks for itself; a career .303 batting average, one National League MVP, one batting title, 2,727 hits and 468 home runs.

Jones is a lock for the hall of fame and will go down as a legend for an Atlanta Braves team that has been a benchmark for consistency in the nearly twenty years Jones has played for the ballclub.

However, Jones has one blemish on his list of accomplishments that holds him back from the upper echelon of great ballplayers, and that is the fact that he has only one World Series ring in his nine-

teen year run with the Braves. The Atlanta Braves themselves were a model of regular season consistency and post season shortcomings, winning fourteen straight division titles and only one World Series. To put that into perspective, the Braves were one of the eight best teams in baseball for fourteen consecutive years, but only once did they have that extra something that makes a team a champion. It isn’t fair, but if Chipper won two to three more championships with the Braves in that time frame, a lot of writers would have been elevating him up the list of all-time greats upon his retirement at the end of the NL Wild Card Game.

This type of value for rings is a tricky issue that has plagued handfuls of great athletes throughout the years.

It is both fair and unfair to value championships when discussing who the best player is in sports. Surely we all know Peyton Manning has been a better quarterback than his little brother Eli, but Eli’s two Super Bowl rings to Peyton’s one has changed the opinion of many in Eli’s favor. Sometimes a player never has the supporting cast to win

Ruttig’s rants Column Chase Ruttig a title, or falls victim to a run of dominance by a vastly superior opponent as John Stockton and Karl Malone were when they ran into the Houston Rockets and Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls squads in the prime of their careers, both teams preventing them from getting their hands on that elusive championship.

The point is, if you are truly one of the best it is painfully clear with or without being on the best team.

Especially in the case of Chipper Jones. His consistency combined with the pitching of his Hall of Fame teammates in Greg Maddux, John Smoltz, and Tom Glavine led the Atlanta Braves to fourteen

straight NL East titles.

In a 162 game season the consistency that Jones brought to third base year in and year out was as valuable as any of his contemporaries with more postseason success.

Jones might only have the 1995 championship win over the Cleveland Indians as his postseason peak, he may not have 3, 000 hits, 500 home runs, or any of the cliched measures of an “automatic Hall of Famer” that fill baseball. But there is a reason that usually one quarter to half empty Turner Field was filled for the last two weeks of Jones’ last season, and that when the final out was put on his career, not one person has questioned that

Jones will be inducted into the Hall of Fame as soon as he is eligible. That is because in an era where steroids and HGH allowed for flash in the pan players to put up big numbers fast and fade into the spotlight, Jones year in and year out gave you exactly what you expected from him. At the end of the day people are going to remember the Atlanta Braves of the 90s and the 00s for fourteen straight NL East titles, Bobby Cox in the bullpen, Greg Maddux on the mound, and Chipper Jones playing third base, and isn’t that type of legacy that makes a player great? Goodbye Chipper, baseball is going to miss players like you.

Harvest wrap up

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer

It was a weekend of ups and downs for the Yorkton Harvest as they took on the Battlefords Stars in a Saturday/Sunday doubleheader in early season action.

The Harvest, who were winless heading into their two game set with the Stars, looked the part on Saturday afternoon in a 4-0 loss. Battlefords opened the scoring two minutes into the game before adding another goal in the second period and a two goal third to give them the convincing victory.

Sunday was a different story as the Harvest scored four unanswered goals in the first and second periods to open a 4-0 lead of their own before winning 5-1 in their first win of the season. Lynndon Pastachak had a two goal and one assist effort while Jaden Kreklewich and Eric Meyer had three point nights of their own in a victory that hopefully will spark an early season turnaround for the struggling Harvest. Spencer Bombior had twenty five saves in the victory, allowing just one goal in a solid goaltending performance.

The Harvest now look for another Saturday/Sunday set at the FAA as they host the fourth place Saskatoon Blazers who have one win and two overtime points on the season. Saturday’s puck drop is at 7:30 p.m. while Sunday features matinee action with a 2:00 p.m. start.

Raiders head into playoffs with home field advantage Cont. from Page 11.

By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer

Dalton Fichtner scored three touchdowns in the first half, running in one of his own and connecting on long yardage passing touchdowns to Layne Hall and Michael Balysky in a game that the Raiders dominated. Estevan did keep things interesting in the opening moments with a touchdown to tie things up early and nearly answering back again before fumbling on the one yard line on a passing play, creating some controversy as Estevan contested that they crossed the goal line before the ball hit the ground. However it proved to be a non factor in a game that saw Fichtner sit out a majority of the second half as Ryan Krochak took snaps under center as the Raiders coasted into second place and have a serious mental edge going into their rematch at Century Field on Saturday. Snowy conditions hit the field to start and end the second half and looks like Century Field will continue to be frigid in the next few weeks, something that Sharpe considers an edge heading into the playoffs.

“We are always a ground attacking team and believe in using the run to set up the pass, both Central and Peacock use a lot of passing on offense and with weather that can see anything happen on any given day in October it is an advantage to have a strong running game,” said Sharpe.

In other action on Tuesday Moose Jaw Peacock earned a 28-14 victory over Central off of four rushing touchdowns which created a three way tie that saw Peacock surprisingly lock up the first place bye and the winner of the Swift Current-Weyburn quarterfinal in the semi-finals. Central finished third and will face a Vanier squad they beat on a last second punt through the end zone in the other quarterfinal before likely heading to Century Field for a rematch of the Raiders only loss of the season in the semi-finals.

Coach Sharpe knows that even though they beat Estevan handily on Tuesday, they might be a different team on Saturday afternoon in a playoff atmosphere. “Anything can happen, and even though we didn’t show them all of our playbook, they will likely have done the same thing,” mentioned Sharpe. Looking ahead in the playoffs Sharpe lamented on the fact that they were just four points away from a first round bye as Peacock needed to win by ten points or more to lock up first place and ended up winning by two touchdowns over Central, but has high hopes going up against both schools going forward. If a rematch against Central is to happen Sharpe mentioned that they did out gain the Cyclones by over 100 yards and if the Raiders erased their five turnovers on the game it might have been a different story saying “We shot ourselves in the foot in our one loss of the season.”

The Raiders will be look-

ing for Zack Kais return in the playoffs and coach Sharpe hopes that Kais down the middle style will allow him to play at less than 100 per cent. If Kais does not return expect Haas to be the X factor in the Raiders playoff run as he will need to provide the Raiders rushing offence in a relatively new position if Kais is unable to play.

With their 5-1 record Sharpe anticipates a good run at the championship from what he considers a great team, but alludes to the fact that “Anything can happen in the game of football, a call here, an inch there, a fumble, an interception, can change

a game or a season in the playoffs.”

Homefield advantage in the playoffs will be enjoyed by the Raiders for the first time in over a decade as the move to Moose Jaw will allow the Raiders to play their next two games at Century Field up until the potential City Championship game which will continue to be held in Moose Jaw. In just their first year in a new league the Raiders head into the second season with a new identity and new experiences and now a chance to make their mark on the league with their first ever MJFL title.

It is estimated that nearly 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and that more than 40,000 of these women will die. Breast cancer is a threat to women of all ages, races and walks of life. Even men are at risk for breast cancer, with approximately 1,700 men diagnosed each year. These numbers remind us why it is so important to know the signs, symptoms and risk factors of breast cancer. Early detection of breast cancer is the best weapon against the disease, which means breast self-exams should be performed regularly, with clinical breast exams every one to three years. By the age of 40, women should begin getting mammograms every one to two years. In addition, healthy lifestyle habits like physical activity, not smoking, minimizing alcohol intake and consuming plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables can help women reduce their risk factors.

PLEASE BEAR WITH THE DELAYS! The City has undertaken several projects and the many workers in all divisions are working hard to get things done while the weather is still in their construction favour.

A portion of this work is funding of much needed street lights from the Yorkton Business Improvement District at a cost of approx $40,000.

Corner of Laurier & Broadway and WalMart

Also included in this is the newly approved decorative crosswalk art.

This project of Neck Ties and Piano Keys is a first in Canada, and there are other designs to come. The YBID is paying the tab, about $10,000 for the special stencils.

The Godfrey Dean Art Gallery, under the direction of Don Stein, is taking care of the design and ordering while the regular City crosswalk painters are kicking in their time to put it all together.

As you can see by the photos and by driving through our YBID District, the crosswalks jump out at you, and that’s exactly what is supposed to happen.

The project is designed to make the driving public more aware of crosswalks and the people in them. Just one car-pedestrian accident is too much, and YBID felt that we had to try something to make our streets more pedestrian friendly

Special paint and designs can’t do it all. YBID asks every driver to slow down, watch the road and look for people crossing our streets, and by all means put away the cell phone while you’re driving.

Let’s work to make Yorkton a place where good DRIVERS happen!
