Community plan unveiled: feedback sought By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The City of Yorkton recently unveiled a draft community plan for the city, named Our City, Our Future. Jim Walter with Crosby and Hanna recently presented the plan a Chamber of Commerce Business Lunch held in the city. The document is based on the expectation that Yorkton’s population will double by 2036, which will mean 6-8,000 new housing units in that period. Walter says that the plan involves the principles of smart growth, which he says is a recent trend in urban planning which help a community become healthier. A goal for the city is to keep travel distances
low, and Walter says one of the ways to do that is to promote intensification of current infrastructure, in areas such as the city’s downtown core. He says that there needs to be ways to encourage higher density development and use of currently serviced areas, to minimize the cost of infrastructure and use less land. When it comes to neighborhood design, Walter says that having a variety of lot sizes is a priority, as well as varied density of housing, to accommodate a wide spectrum of people. He notes that the city also needs to keep natural features, and that it must embrace the current trend of maintaining wetlands rather than filling them in for the sake of devel-

opment. Maintaining wetlands allows them to function as an additional flood control mechanism, and recently municipalities have seen the value of keeping these areas. Some changes suggested would be alterations to the bylaws concerning secondary suites, to encourage basement, garden, and garage suites. Walter says that feedback on that area would be welcomed. The city is also looking for feedback concerning signage, including regulations surrounding billboards and the location of portable signs. Walter emphasizes that consultations are vital to get the community travelling in the direction people want. One area which caused controversy was
the proposal for a minor reduction in the minimum size for parking spaces, reduced from 2.75 meters to 2.70 meters. Attendees at the event suggested that with the relatively large segment of the population driving large trucks, it makes sense for Yorkton to have a larger than average parking spot requirement, given the difficulty of parking such vehicles. Walter said that while the goal was to align the Yorkton bylaws with the rest of the province, this might be a suggestion that gets revised given the feedback. The consultation process is ongoing, and people can still have input into the overall plan. Residents can currently view the plan online at yorkton.ca.

Road race for health another success The Health Foundation’s annual Charity Road was a great success, raising $28,114 for local health care initiatives. Executive Director of the Foundation, Ross Fisher, says there were 236 registered runners who participated in the Charity Road Race on Sunday, August 18. “We were very pleased to have a great turn-out, and to see the runners collect so many pledges and raise so much money. This year 650 pledges were collected, with 24 runners raising over $300.” The Charity Road Race has several goals each year: • to provide an opportunity for people to learn to run by putting on free running clinics from May to August; • to hold a fun and well organized Charity Road Race that everyone from the beginning runner to the competitive runner can participate in; and, • to raise funds for the purchase of medical equipment that will provide an improved or new service to the residents of this region. This year’s top Fundraisers were: Dave Matichuk, $2,415; Dennis Fuchs, $1,305; Tracy Newton of Saskatoon, $1,135; Kyle Dressler $1,096, and Adele Pask $1,035. The race winners were as follows: – One half Marathon: Rick Vaughn won the men’s race with a time of 1:29:59; Shannon del Bigio won the women’s race with a time of 1:47:50 – 10 km: John Svec won the men’s race with a time of 38:32; Jodi Souter won the women’s race with a time of 38:12 – five km: Jaden Porte won the men’s race with a time of 18:38; Robyn Luthi won the women’s race with a time of 19:56 – five km 13 to 15: Cole Burkholder won the men’s race with a time of 19:04; Sarah Novakowski won the women’s race with a time of 24:04 – two km Junior Run: Tyler Walker won with a time of 8:53 The Road Race attracted runners from throughout the region, and from as far away as Winnipeg.

AN EVENING IN PARIS has been selected as the theme for this year’s Health Foundation Gala. Pictured above, Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation (left), and Diane Rusnak, Chair of the Gala Committee, announce the upcoming event.
Get set for an evening in Paris – Health Foundation Gala planned The Health Foundation has announced the theme for it’s 18th annual gala. This year’s event will be An Evening In Paris. It is slated to take place on Saturday, October 19 2013 at St. Mary’s Cultural Centre in Yorkton. “We’ve never had Paris as a theme, but we are excited about this year’s theme. Paris has huge history, and when you think about Paris thoughts of rich food, music, dancing, art and romance are evoked. It’s perfect for a Gala evening,” says Diane Rusnak, Chair of the Gala Committee. The star of the evening, like every year, will be the food and dance that defines the night. As well, Mitch Hippsley, of Photography by Mitch, will take
complimentary portraits of guests; Sherring Gold Jewellers is once again donating a piece of jewellery for a raffle; and the Gala has a Silent Auction, limited to 40 select items donated by the business community from throughout the region. “The last several Gala Evenings have sold out and have been huge successes, and we are going to improve and build on that success by making Gala better every year. For those who like to dance Gala is of course a must, as we always feature a live band that can play a range of music and keep the dance floor full. Our band this year is the Crawdaddys, who have played for us before; they are back by popular demand.”
Send us your photos! Do you have a great local scene or human interest photo that you would like to see published in the News Review? We are inviting local readers to submit their best photos for publication in upcoming issues. Photos must be clear and sharp
Over the years, the Gala events have purchased over $403,000 of important medical equipment for the region’s healthcare facilities. This year the proceeds of Gala will go toward the purchase of new Cardiac Stress Test equipment for the Regional Hospital. Seating for Gala will be limited to 350 people. “Gala evening has sold out in past years and we need to limit the guests to properly plan for the evening. We don’t like to crowd the dance floor.” Ticket order forms are available in person from The Health Foundation office at 41 Betts Avenue in Yorkton.

No more EI extensions for convicted claimants
Canada’s EI program is meant to support Canadians who lose their jobs through no fault of their own while they look for work or upgrade their skills. Eligibility for Employment Insurance (EI) benefits is determined based on the number of insurable hours worked in the previous 52 weeks from the date of job loss. All benefits must generally be taken within 52 weeks after the date of job loss. Benefits not taken within this period lapse once the 52-week benefit period has expired. However, there are a few exemptions that allow for an extension to the qualification period or the benefit period. One of these exemptions was for individuals “confined in a jail, penitentiary or other similar institution.” Individuals who were jailed were allowed to extend the qualifying period in which to count insurable hours by the number of weeks that they were confined, to a maximum of 104 weeks, or to extend the period in which benefits could be paid, depending on when
Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz the confinement occurred. What this meant in practice is that under the past system, convicted criminals who served one year in prison were, once released, allowed to look back beyond the one year for an additional 52 weeks. If they worked enough hours in the year before they were incarcerated, they would then qualify for benefits after their release from jail. In contrast, individuals who took a year off
YTC offers employment partnerships By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Yorkton Tribal Council’s labor force development program is about getting unemployed and under employed local First Nations people employment and the opportunity to improve their lives. Wilfred Whitehawk with the YTC recently spoke at a Chamber of Commerce luncheon on the benefits of the program. There are three different ways that employers can participate in the program. One is a work experience partnership, which runs up to 26 weeks in length, a transition to employment partnership, which runs 16 weeks and ends with the client securing employment upon completion. The newest program is the apprenticeship partnership, which eventually leads to the employee learning the trade. Whitehawk notes that under this last program, for example, there are clients working at R. Miller’s Plumbing and Heating working towards journeyman status, as well as some working with the Department of Highways working towards Heavy

Another advantage for employers is that it allows them to get first hand experience with First Nations employees. Whitehawk admits that employee retention is an issue, and part of the problem is the differences in culture. By using the program, it can help employers ‘bridge the gap,’ something Whitehawk says will be important in the future. “The First Nations community is one of the fastest growing demographics in Saskatchewan, and Canada in general,” Whitehawk says. The programs take advantage of local education, such as Parkland College and Dreambuilders to help prepare clients for the workplace, as well as resources to help with any culture changes which either side might need to understand to make the program work. The YTC is open to help with employment issues for both clients and employers, and Whitehawk encourages employers in the region to take part in the program and use their resources and assistance to help grow their own workforce.
Sing a song of numbers – ways to learn Submitted by Regional KidsFirst • If you sing number songs when you walk, drive of cuddle with your child... Your toddler will: hear the order of numbers; use todder talk to imitate the songs and order of numbers; and, imitate counting, although she may get the order wrong. Introducing the idea of numbers to your children does not have to be a fight. In fact, as a parent, you can start introducing number sequence as early as 12 months old. Fun ways you can do this is by singing songs or nursery rhymes that are based on numbers. Such songs as “One, two, buckle my shoe,” or “Five little pumpkins sitting on a fence,” are great ways to help your child remember the numbers and sequences. When your child is around the 2 year old mark, they might be able to sing the songs and remember the numbers, but not quite understand the concepts. This is a time of many mistakes – and that is ok! If your child is counting – “One, two, five, six…” just means that she is learning the correct names. With a bit of time and practice he will learn to point
to objects and label them with numbers. To help your child understand the concepts of numbers, take daily activities to re-enforce the counting. “One napkin for mommy, one napkin for daddy, one for you! One, two, three napkins!” At first, your child might only see three napkins regardless of how many are actually on the table. However, at some point he will start to understand that the word “three” actually means there are only three napkins on the table.

work to spend time with their family would, on their return to their job, have to work enough hours to re-qualify for benefits. If they lost their job before they re-qualified for benefits, they would receive no benefits. On June 26, 2013, Bill C-316 ended the extension offered to convicted criminals. As of June 30, 2013, they will no more have longer qualifying and benefit periods than law-abiding Canadians. Those people found not guilty of the charges that detained them may continue to receive extensions. They will, though, need to wait for the outcome of their judicial proceedings before requesting an extension of their qualifying or benefit period. Our government holds the position that it’s unfair to Canada’s law-abiding citizens to give preferential treatment to convicted felons who apply for EI benefits. The change means that all Canadians must satisfy the same criteria when applying for EI.

Kids are dying it’s time for change There are definite gaps in the system and flaws in society if we have happenings like this going on. Tragically, a six year old area boy – who was under the care and protection of the Saskatchewan Social Services – is no longer with us. On the day that little Lee Allan Bonneau was to begin his first day of Grade two, police and officials were gathering for a news conference to address how it is the young boy could have met the fate he did. In foster care, Bonneau was visiting the Kahkewistahaw First Nation with his foster parents, who were on the reserve to play Bingo in the Education and Sports Complex, when he was beaten and killed by a 12 (ish) year old boy who lived on the reserve. Apparently the 12 year old – who is believed to have used a blunt force weapon to beat Bonneau to death – had been in trouble many times before. Too young to be charged criminally, he now sits in a government facility while officials try to make sense of what happened and where to go from here. This isn’t purely a racial issue. The six year old was non-Aboriginal. That said, it is a situation that begs answers. Why was this 12 year old so troubled that he wound up taking a life? What kind of an environment was he being brought up in? How can we as a society change that? What kind of home was the six year old placed in? Was there no supervision whatsoever that day? Where do we go from here, in a society that says the youth is too young to be held responsible for his actions? The Chief of the First Nation is blaming a lack of government funding for what has happened. With more funding he says, there would be additional resources for health and educational issues. It seems to always come down to this. At what point do we say – what we are doing is NOT working. Throwing money at an already messed up situation will not make things any better. It’s time for an overhaul. Bonneau is reportedly the fifth child in the Saskatchewan Social Services system to die in the last four years. It’s time we start digging and start demanding answers. We are failing our children and something has to give.
Refreshing story in tumultuous times The way I see it...
It’s a shame in a way that happenings like this aren’t more commonplace, but nonetheless it’s refreshing to see a headline that doesn’t involve murder, theft or destruction. The scene unfolded in smaller town New Jersey. Police were called because of a suspected burglary. Four young black men were seen entering a store after hours so of course, most would believe the worst. What’s great about this story is that all of the doubters, haters and profilers would be wrong. As it turns out, the four young men are University football players. (Not that this matters in the grand scheme of things. What matters is the morals of these young men.) Running late for practice they stopped at a local store to pick up a few things. They approached the front door and it was unlocked so they went in. (A faulty locking system was apparently to blame.) Video surveillance shows the men walking about the store, appearing as though they were looking for a store associate to help them. No employees appeared. What would you do in this case? There are a number of options. Realizing the store is empty you
could put your potential purchases down and leave. You could also leave with them in hand and not pay a cent, after all, it’s not your mistake the doors were left open. Choosing neither of the above options, these men up what they needShannon Deveau picked ed and left full payment on the counter before leaving. “...we decided to put the money on the counter instead of stealing, because that’s just not right,” said one of the men involved in an interview following the incident. Police apparently arrived on the scene shortly after the fact and alerted the store owner that there “may have been a break in,” but upon watching the security tape the real story unfolded. So thrilled with the honesty of her ‘customers,’ the store owner tracked down the men and invited them back to her business. Because they were so stand up, she rewarded them with thank you gifts in the form of needed purchases for their dorm rooms. NICE. You can’t judge a book by its cover and you can’t paint a generation with one brush and that’s a good thing. “Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and astound the other.” – Mark Twain

French is more useful than teens want to admit In the television show Futurama, there is a running joke about the French language being dead and obscure in the distant future. I thought of this when I learned that students in Tisdale will not have the option to take core French as part of their regular school activities, though an online class will be offered. The North East School Division is saying that the class was dropped because of low enrolment, so the division thought it more advantageous to allocate teachers elsewhere. Whether or not this is a good idea partially depends on whether or not the prophecy of the animated program is fulfilled. If French continues to matter, then the continued existence of a French program will continue to matter, whether or not the students in the school division realize it or not. If French is a dying language, then it doesn’t make sense to learn it, and resources could be put into a different language. In this case, I don’t think I would put French on life support just yet. Yes, it’s not as popular as some other languages in the world, but it remains one of the national languages of Canada, and as a result it’s going to be necessary for a lot of people to have at least a basic understanding of it. It’s a basic understanding that would even apply to jobs you would not expect, or even just being a tourist in certain areas of
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger the country. Knowing the language, in Canada at a bare minimum, is helpful. Even just having a rough understanding of the language can be useful if you are forced into an area where you see a lot of French, as you would know the basic rules and be able to glean some meaning from what is seen and heard. If French is not dead yet, and there is still value in the language, we are lead directly to the problem of the students, who have abandoned language courses en masse in that particular school division. The problem, then, is not that French is useless, it’s that students are unaware of the potential use that the language might have in their every day lives. It’s a com-
mon problem with a lot of subjects in the school system, one must convince a teenager that it is something of value, but teens frequently don’t quite recognize something’s worth. It’s the same reason you see kids complain that they will never use complicated math in real life, even if they are using rough approximations of it to solve other problems. The applications of such things are not immediately obvious, but help your understanding of how things work. The problem is that it’s difficult to fully articulate the value of French. It’s a class I found useful years later, but not because of any of the specific words and phrases I learned. I certainly couldn’t tell you anything useful in French, the phrase “Le pamplemousse est dans la bibliotheque” is not going to find any practical applications, unless you habitually forget grapefruits in libraries. It’s all about learning the rules, the ability to detect patterns and likely meanings in unfamiliar French sentences. It’s not fluency, I would need much more advanced French classes for that, but it gives one the ability to muddle through, and the basic understanding would be helpful if I needed to fully learn the language. Now that the class is being dropped, it is clear that something needs to be done, so kids can fully grasp the need to learn languages outside of their own.

It’s a big mistake to ignore Japan
Winning back the ‘American dream’
To the Editor:
In recent years, Canadian business and government leaders have directed much of their attention to emerging Asia – not only China and India, but also countries like Korea, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and several others. Often overlooked in discussions of what some analysts refer to as the “Asian century” is a country that, until recently, was the largest economy in the region: Japan. The past two decades have been unkind to Japan. It has grappled with a long period of economic malaise following the collapse of its stock and real estate markets in the early 1990s, deteriorating public finances, the onset of negative population growth, and – more recently – natural disasters. Many decision-makers in North America appear to believe that Japan no longer matters. But it would be a mistake to ignore the country. Consider, first, that Japan is still has the world’s third biggest national economy, behind the U.S. and China. And it is a fairly prosperous one: per capita gross domestic product is US$36,900, using purchasing power parity exchange rates. This puts Japan ahead of many European countries and makes it four times richer than China. Japan is highly productive, owing to its welleducated population, strong manufacturing sector, and modern infrastructure. Over the period 1990 to 2010, Japan led the G8 countries in productivity growth, despite its well-advertised macroeconomic and structural problems. Japan is an influential trading nation, ranking as the world’s 4th largest exporter; it is also the 4th biggest import market. Endowed with few natural resources, it has evolved to become a leading global supplier of sophisticated products,
particularly manufactured goods. Japan has a strong base of human capital. Adult literacy is just a notch below 100 per cent. High school completion is almost universal, postsecondary attainment rates are relatively high, and the country hosts six of the 100 top-ranked global universities. Two areas of persistent weakness are female labour force participation, where it lags behind other developed countries, and its failure to use immigration to augment workforce skills and mitigate the problems posed by population decline. Japan is home to a significant number of global-scale enterprises. According to Fortune magazine’s Global 500 publication, 62 of the world’s 500 largest corporations – including six of the top 50 – are headquartered in Japan. (Canada is home to just nine). Japanese firms are well represented among the ranks of the world’s leading producers of automobiles, machinery and equipment, insurance, heavy manufacturing, and trading. Geographically, Japan is ideally situated to benefit from ongoing economic development in broader Asia. Since the early 1990s, it has expanded and deepened commercial connections with other Asian markets, and Japanese corporations are among the most prominent investors in the region. Japan today is a critical link in Asian-centric global supply chains. Gross government debt has reached an alarming 235 per cent of GDP, the highest among all advanced countries. Yet interest rates have long been at rock-bottom levels, and the government seemingly has no trouble financing its massive debts. It turns out that the Japanese public sector also holds extensive financial assets, which serve to partially offset its aggregate debt, leaving a net debt burden closer to
130 per cent of GDP (still high, but not much more so than in several European nations). Moreover, Japan is a comparatively low-tax jurisdiction, with taxes collected equal to 33 per cent of GDP, well below the average for all advanced economies. This means it has room to increase taxes to assist in putting government finances on a firmer footing. Finally, while Japan’s public sector is heavily indebted, in a macroeconomic sense the country is a net creditor to the rest of the world, in the amount of some $3 trillion. This reflects Japan’s high household saving rate, coupled with the large stock of Japanese investment abroad. On this metric, Japan, perhaps surprisingly, may be in a stronger financial position than some other nations with proportionately smaller government debt burdens. Japan has gained some momentum since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his party assumed office last year. It is too early to know how successful “Abenomics” will be. But Japan’s economy grew by almost 2 per cent in 2012, and The Economist Intelligence Unit sees real GDP expanding by 1.7 per cent this year and 2.1 per cent in 2014. These are decent GDP growth rates for a country with an aging and slowly shrinking population. Canada’s two-way trade with Japan reached $25 billion last year, with 3,000 Canadian firms exporting to the country. Direct Japanese investment in Canada stands at $15 billion. By any measure, Japan remains an important economic and political partner for Canada. In the rush to strengthen Canada’s commercial presence in the Asia-Pacific, it is important that we not neglect relations with Japan. Jock Finlayson, Troy Media Corp.
Adding insult to injury for Credit Unions To the Editor: Was it accidental, negligent or deliberate? The Harper government is clearly no fan of Co-operatives and Credit Unions. In its frenzy to slash programs and services, it has gutted the federal Co-ops Secretariat and eliminated business development initiatives. It has even attacked Cooperative housing. Most recently, Credit Unions (CUs) have been targeted for a Conservative tax-grab. In his last budget, Stephen Harper hit Credit Unions with a whopping new tax increase. And this from someone who claims – obviously falsely – that he doesn’t raise taxes! Refusing to recognize the structural and operational differences between CUs and big banks, Mr. Harper is sticking CUs with the same tax rate as financial corporations
at least 16-times larger – meaning their effective rate is ballooning by more than one-third, from the previous level of 11 per cent to a new rate of 15 per cent. That’s a huge hit, but it gets worse. The legislation the Harper Conservatives rammed through Parliament last spring – in another odious Omnibus Bill with ludicrous limits on scrutiny and debate – imposes a new effective tax rate on Credit Unions (and ONLY on Credit Unions) of 28 per cent (not just 15). That’s brutal. It would kill the sector. This massive new CU tax was discovered and disclosed in a recent independent examination of federal budget measures by the Deloitte accounting firm. The Finance department now says it was all just a “mistake” that they already knew about. But
if that’s true, why hadn’t they disclosed it themselves and announced a clear plan to fix it. It’s hard to believe that such an egregious tax increase was accidental. Remember, this is a government that’s desperate for cash. By hook or by crook, the Conservatives are determined to concoct the illusion of a balanced budget by 2015, which just happens to be just before the next federal election. How convenient! So, they’re over-estimating revenues, making deficient provisions against risk, counting on big programs (like infrastructure) to under-invest by large amounts, slashing a long list of frontline services, refusing to put any new money into job training, and hiking taxes. Yes, HIKING TAXES big time! In this last budget, for example, there are new Conservative taxes not
only on Credit Unions, but also on small business owners, on job creation and consumer products totalling more than $1.5-billion every year. And that’s assuming the new CU tax rate is actually just the 15 per cent stated in the budget itself, and not the much higher 28 per cent that was written into their legislation. If this rate discrepancy was deliberate deceit, it’s reprehensible. If it’s truly a mistake, it reflects startling incompetence. At the bottom-line, there’s no justification for any new tax burden on Credit Unions. Their effective rate should remain at 11 per cent – where it was before the Harper regime set out to punish them. Kudos to Deloitte for exposing this fiasco. Ralph Goodale, MP., Wascana, SK.
Will Canada be viewed for what it really is? To the Editor: For centuries (1648 - 1999) internal affairs were not considered reason for countries to attack another country. In 1999 without sanction by the United Nations NATO attacked Serbia. In 2011 the United Nations agreed to intervention to protect civilians - NATO extended this to air attacks ensuring the defeat and then the death of the Libyan ruler.
The words of those governing Canada indicate they are uncritically following the direction United States “Harper and Obama want ‘firm response’ to Syria attack” In that a “Syria strike needs Security Council approval, UN says” questions arise: Will action be taken against the present government of Syria?; Will it be with or without United Nations sanction?; Will the basis on which action is taken be soundly based or of the same nature
as that which led to Iraq being attacked?; Will Canada be committed with or without the approval being given by a majority of Members of Parliament through a vote in the House of Commons? Most importantly: Will Canada and Canadians be rightly viewed by other peoples as nothing more than the U.S of A’ northward extension? Joe Hueglin, Niagara Falls, ON.
To the Editor: The central branding message of the United States encapsulating freedom, democracy and capitalism is the American Dream. Clearly, our country and the world in which it resides have seen better days, but we have a road map for getting back on track, and it starts with the individual. Violence is more than perpetrating physical harm – it can also be mental, emotional and spiritual coercion. The root of the word ‘terrorism,’ for example, is terror, a mental state. I believe we have been violently coerced, as individuals and as a society, into straying from what is essential to our wellbeing. On the individual level, if we are more truthful to ourselves as spiritual beings, we will bring more generosity and kindness into the world every day, she says. On a larger scale, societal obstructions include misguided government policies and agencies at home, dictators abroad, terrorism and deceitful preachers. Choose to act out of love, not fear. When our true spiritual nature is not dictating our actions, it’s readily apparent to any reasonably attuned individual. Various fear-based bad ideas, however, blind individuals and prevent them from connecting cause (fear) and effect (violence, selfishness, etc.) When we make choices that are truly based in love, we are connecting to the good of our souls, which, in turn, connects to the benefit of greater society. Use your inner “GPS guidance system” – intuition. Flesh, blood, material possessions and money – these are things you cannot take with you when you die. This should remind us that though money may be necessary in life on Earth, it does not buy happiness, as several studies indicate. Peace and goodwill are the coordinates of our beings that are, sadly, often blocked in today’s world. Individuals tend to resist the things they most desire in life – peace and goodwill. Embrace suffering as a guide to higher purpose. Often, we are told that suffering is something to be avoided. Pain and suffering on a personal level, however, is an indication that something is wrong. At the same time, there is provided a spiritual healing grace to one’s vulnerability. Let this sensation reassure you that there is a pull of purpose within you, and the pain felt can be overcome en route to a life filled with meaning. Blend spiritual being-ness with human doing-ness. Euripides, one of Athens’ great tragedians from antiquity, wrote, “The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man.” Just as our U.S. Constitution includes a system of checks and balances so, too, must each of us establish checks and balances between the spirituality within us and the actions of human beings around us. Living without balance, we risk extremism on the spiritual or worldly level. Merrilyn Richardson, Midland, Texas.

Touring with a cause, Justin Hines plans Yorkton show By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Singer/Songwriter Justin Hines wants to give back. It might be by giving audiences a good time or by giving to local charities across the country, promoting positive social change. Hines will be in Yorkton on September 10, with proceeds from the concert going to YAIL Harbor. Hines says that the show expresses a love of storytelling and music. He also says his primary goal at every show is to connect with the audience and to give them an experience on an emotional level. “We’re really fans of an experience that people can relate to on an emotional level. That’s our goal, and we play music about what we want to communicate. Hopefully people are having a good time,” he says. Hines recently released the album How We Fly, which is an optimistic album recorded during a difficult time in his life, when he says he wasn’t sure he could even sing anymore. The resulting record bears the mark of the time it was recorded, but remains hopeful in spite of any hardships involved. “We weren’t sure if it was a good time to make an album, we were going through some physical challenges, and things like breathing and singing were a little bit challenging. It’s pretty hard to make a record when you’re in that zone, but we decided to plough through it and luckily enough we’re at the other end of it now, and things are good now. It’s interesting to make an album in that kind of time. “I’ve always been a relatively optimistic guy, and like anybody you go through peaks and valleys, and it was one of the bigger valleys I can remember. Naturally, when you’re creating something, it’s hard not to
SINGER, SONG WRITER Justin Hines will perform in Yorkton next week. channel what you’re dealing with.” With this tour, all proceeds from ticket sales will be going to local charities. This was accomplished by going to crowd funding to sponsor the tour, using pledgemusic.com and
with the amount of money raised the band could plan as many stops as possible within that budget. With the tour funded, that means all of the proceeds can go to a good cause, with a focus on local charities. In Yorkton,
YAIL Harbor and their Pathway Homes Project will see the benefits of the Yorkton show. “We wanted this tour to be not a typical music tour. We wanted to do something that was meaningful and not forgettable. We thought this would be an interesting way to support charities and people we have had a lot of respect for and want to help out. On the same token, we can tour and meet a lot of new people, so it was a win-win situation. We’ve met a lot of amazing people so far and the journey continues.” Hines lives with a condition called Larsen’s Syndrome, but he says that he wanted to go beyond organizations he could relate to, because it’s important to recognize everyone’s challenges, whether external like his own, or more internal. “I can relate to physical challenges, that’s a big part of my life. I’ve been in a wheelchair since birth, so my road has been a little different. By the same token, I don’t look at myself as different or unique, we all have our stuff, mine’s a little more visible, but it’s relative.” The tour is going until the middle of October, and Hines says that they have been amazed by the amount of support they have received for the project. “It’s been a long journey, which means that we have accomplished a lot of our goals. We still want to keep going.” The show will be at Sacred Heart High School at 7:00 p.m. on September 10. Tickets are $20, and available at YAIL Harbor at 115 Darlington St. E., Hearn’s Westview Pharmacy at 265 Bradbrooke Dr., Louck’s MediHealth Pharmacy at 115-41 Broadway St. W. and LR Future Insurance and Investments, at 7 Broadway St. W.

Beginning school – a milestone for all The first day of school can be an important milestone for both parents and child. But it can also be an emotional roller-coaster for both parents and the child. You have been waiting for this day for some time, but you are faced with mixed emotions as your little child is now grown up and now ready to start school. To make the transition to school a little easier, it may help to take your child to school and pick them up after school those first few days. You will want your child to feel comfortable when going to and from school. When your child knows how to get to school alone, you will feel more at
We will never walk on the moon.
FROM MORNING UNTIL EVENING... Column by Margaret Anne Yost ease to have them walk or ride their bikes to school. Children usually adjust to this new life style of school much faster than we do. In a few days they have made some new friends, and they will enjoy the activities happening at school. Children will adapt to their new environment very quickly. I recall when our grandchildren started school, they were introduced to four children at a time, the following day four more children joined the group until all the children had met each other. Dealing with a fewer number of children made the transition to school a lot easier for children and teachers. Explaining to the children what will be happening at school can ease some of your
child’s anxiety. Listening to your child will be an important tool to know how they are adjusting to school life. When children come home from school, take the time to listen to what has happening during their day. If you as a parent have any concerns about your child, you would do will to share these concerns with the teacher. Together you will make a better team to help your child during that first year of school. As parents we may shed a tear as this small child heads off to school, but let them be tears of joy, because your little one is growing up and entering an exciting new phase in their life. This past week I was sent an email prayer and I would like to
share with you. I do not know its origin. As you head out to school today, May the strength of God be with you, The power of God uphold you, And the wisdom of God guide you. May the eye of God watch over you this day, May the hand of God protect you, May the love Christ always shield you . As you go off to school to work and play. Amen Margaret Anne Yost nursed for 35 years. Returning back to school I completed classes from the Red River College in the areas of Gerontology, Bereavement, Death and Dying. For twelve years I worked in bereavement support at a funeral home. At present I am employed as an Interim Parish Worker at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Melville, Sask. I also enjoy my role as homemaker, wife, mother and grandmother.

Good Spirit Acres happenings
Submitted by Carol Olsen
It has been another busy summer at Good Spirit Acres. The golf course has been in great shape and pretty busy most days… especially on weekends. The playground, shuffleboard game and camp kitchen at Spilchen Meadows was also used a lot. We are so happy to see that children and families enjoy it. Thanks to volunteers and Barry Bradshaw for keeping the grass cut and park neat. The RM of Good Lake celebrated it’s 100th anniversary in July at Good Spirit Acres with a steak BBQ and great entertainment by Brad Johner and family. It was a great day with the weather man cooperating with a sunny day. A centennial history book was unveiled and presented to former RM counsellors and Reeves and is available for sale at the RM office in Canora. The anniversary celebration was one of the final tasks for RM administrator Grant Doupe, who has taken a job at an RM in Foam Lake. Farewell Grant, good luck! The new administrator is Joan Popoff, and her assistant administrator, Deidre Bilyk. The cabin owners “Toilet Seat Tournament” is booked for Sun. Sept. 15. It is nine holes of Texas scramble golf starting at 1 PM and followed by a pot luck supper at the camp kitchen at Spilchen Meadows. Come join the fun!
The GSA Hamlet Annual Meeting will be on Saturday, October 5, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. at the Good Spirit Golf Hall. This is an important meeting as the Community will need to select a new Board member after the resignation of Jim Rediger who has accepted a position with a Credit Union in Brandon, Manitoba. At this time the current Board members, John McDonald and Don Thompson, along with our community members want to thank Jim for his service and leadership as the Chairman of the Board. The Nominating Committee, Bill Cripps and Norm Lawrence, are seeking out potential candidates for the vacant Board position. If you are interested in being a candidate for this position, please feel free to contact the Nominating Committee or either of the Board members who will get you the proper nomination papers. The first deadline for nominations is Sept. 14, 2013 at 12 noon. If no candidate has filed then the deadline will be extended until Sept. 21, 2013 at 12 noon. Also on Saturday, Oct.5 there will be a Community Association fund raising steak or chicken supper at Tapps in Yorkton from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. All executive members will be selling tickets for this supper for $20.00 each. July 27 , 2013 marked the 7th annual Sandie
Cripps Memorial Golf Tournament, held at the Good Spirit Lake Golf and Family Resort an area. Good Spirit is a one of Saskatchewan gems and for those of us who know the area and people well will understand why Sandie held this location dear for many years. Community involvement and volunteerism is alive and well in this little hamlet as evidenced by the number of volunteers and donations that supported the tournament. Your participation contributed to the success of the day! Forty golfers took to the fairways and raised $6,985 in support of breast cancer research in Saskatchewan. It is important to note that 100 per cent of all funds raised by this tournament will remain in the province. This total was achieved, in part, through your generous support of this very worthwhile cause. The winners of the tournament were Randal Cripps, Arlene Cripps, Ashley Crane and Ehryn Crane. Once again, thank you for your support. The Good Spirit Market had a busy summer selling everything from ice cream to lottery tickets, groceries, frozen foods, liquor, to gasoline and propane. Fall hours – 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. – are now in effect. Congratulations to Brent and Gladys Moore who just celebrated 50 years of wedded bliss!

Jr. Raiders drop second straight By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
The Yorkton Regional High School Jr. Raiders were coming into their Week Three match up in the Regina Minor Football League’s Bantam division coming off their first win of 2013 on the road the Jr. Orange were riding high off of their 44-32 win over the Sun Devils, but were to be challenged by a Stampeders team that featured a running back/fullback tandem that was very physically imposing for Jr. football. That rushing tandem seemed to be all that the Regina visitors needed on Saturday afternoon as despite a valiant effort it seemed as the Stampeders rolled up the long distance touchdown runs early and often in the first half despite the Raiders attempts to bring down the much larger Stamps backs. Despite the demoralizing physical dominance of the Stampeders rushing attack, Yorkton refused to give up at any point of their Sunday affair with the Raiders offense managing to put up two scores in the first half to keep things in reach as the first half came to an end with Yorkton down just three scores as the Stampeders led 30-12. In the second half Yorkton’s defence would step up considerably, Carter Pawliw would snag one of two YRHS interceptions in the second half as things started to improve on both sides of the ball as the game wore on. Rhythm on the offence would be an issue as injuries crept into play with the Orange having to employ an offensive linemen as a wideout on Sunday with their roster depth giving them a challenge. Still there was no quit in the Raiders no matter how many points the Stampeders put onto the board, with the young players on both sides of the ball making plays despite not putting as many points on the board as needed in the game. In the fourth quarter the Raiders offense improved to close out the game with Nick Payne leading the Jr. Raiders into the red zone, scoring on the final drive of the game with a touchdown connection to end Yorkton’s weekend on a high note. Cont. on Page 14.

Terriers 2013/14 preseason kicks off this week By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer If you have been waiting for Junior hockey to start the wait if officially over. With the first month of September upon us the SJHL preseason is officially underway and the Yorkton Terriers open their 2012/13
SJHL title defence with the start of their preseason schedule with a midweek road trip to play the Manitoba Junior Hockey League’s Waywayseecapo Wolverines before opening the Farrell Agencies Arena’s hockey calendar on Friday night against the MJHL’s Swan Valley Stampeders.
The Terriers hosted their fall camp over the Labour Day weekend, but their annual Orange-Black Intrasquad game was sadly cancelled due to Monday’s power outage on Broadway creating poor ice conditions. The lack of an OrangeBlack game will make the Terriers game against the
13091MK00
Wolverines the first hard look head coach Trent Cassan will have of his Terriers outside of training camp as the defending league champions take to the ice with many new hopefuls looking to be apart of a team that will be expecting to win. Cont on Page 14.
Page 14A - THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, September 5, 2013
Jr. Raiders impress coaches, Atom Gridders stay undefeated Cont from Page 13.
In the end it would be a 52-19 win for the Stampeders, but for the Jr. Raiders coaching staff the game was a sign that the team was headed in the right direction. “I think that we showed a lot of promise in our own game against a team that is probably the best team in our league and I think that given our injuries that all of us are pretty happy with the effort we put onto the football field today,” Jr. Raider coach Jason Payne stated after the game. Payne pointed out that the Jr. Raiders were dealing with a handful of injuries on Saturday, something that presented a challenge. “We were teach-
ing a lot of guys on the fly, including putting an offensive line played as a wide receiver and in the Regina Minor Football League preventing players from playing both offense and defense you can’t just plug guys in both ways so when guys go down it really challenges a team.” In other Yorkton Minor Football action the Atom Gridders defeated the Regina Allouettes 33-19 to improve to 3-0 on the season in the 2013 RMF Atom football division. The result had Atom Gridders coach Jason Boyda beaming about his young ballplayers for the third consecutive week. “We are starting to see that our players are hungry to play football and bring
a full effort to each game that we play and every minute that they are on the field they are playing with passion and wanting to play football and play it the right way which is huge.” Boyda also stated that while winning is important in developing a team, fun is the main focus. “We like to win because winning is ultimately one of the funnest things about sports and you can see it when the kids make a big play or win a big game, but we also make sure every day to remind the players that at the end of the day it is about having fun,” says Boyda who mentions that the team has a fun activity practice once a week. YMF teams are on the road next weekend.
LUKAS MUIR chips in on dishing out some punishment on the Stampeders quarterback in the second half of the Jr. Raiders loss to the Regina Stampeders Saturday. Despite dealing with depth issues due to injuries, the Raiders gave the Stampeders everything they could handle making several impressive second half plays.
SJHL drops puck on 2013/14 preseason schedule across the league Cont. from Page 13.
Yorkton will also host two more exhibition games after Friday’s home opener, playing the Melville Millionaires and the Wolverines at the Farrell Agencies Arena as part of a six game preseason calendar before the puck is dropped on the 2013/14 SJHL season late this month. Trent Cassan will also be without the services of several 2012/13 Terriers as they attempt to make WHL rosters during the Western league’s preseason. The most notable of those players being goaltender Dawson MacAuley who has a solid shot at cracking the Regina Pats roster after the team acquired his rights from the Calgary Hitmen during the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft. Cassan will likely be exploring other options in goal behind Yorkton product Kale Thomson as a contingency plan over the course of September. The complete SJHL preseason schedule is as follows (home teams on the right) Sept 5 2013 Battelford Northstars vs Augustana Vikings Sept 5 2013 Nipawin Hawks vs Swan Valley Sept 6 2013 Melfort Mustangs vs LaRonge Ice Wolves Sept 6 2013 Flin Flon Bombers vs OCN Sept 6 2013 Swan Valley vs Yorkton Terriers 7:30p.m. Sept 7 2013 Battleford Northstars vs Kindersley Klippers 7:30 p.m. Sept 7 2013 Swan Valley vs Nipawin Hawks 7:30 p.m. Sept 7 2013 LaRonge Ice Wolves vs Melfort Mustangs Sept 9 2013 Estevan Bruins vs Notre Dame Hounds 7:30 p.m. Sept 9 2013 Yorkton Terriers vs Melville Millionaires 7:30 p.m. Sept 10 2013 Nipawin Hawks vs Flin Flon Sept 10 2013 Regina Cougars CIS vs Weyburn Redwings 7:30 p.m.

Yorkton looking for volleyball refs By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
With the start of the school year Yorkton is in need of volleyball officials for the 2013/14 year. “We have a good number of veteran officials, but it is often not enough to keep up with the demand of having a handful of high school teams at each level of volleyball at Sacred Heart and the YRHS combined with elementary school play so we are in need of more officials in the city,” explains local ref Don Pfiefer. With the crunch for more bodies to keep local volleyball thriving in Yorkton and maintaining well officiated matches throughout the area, there will be three Saskatchewan Volleyball Association clinics across
the Parkland area in September with the aim to grow another solid base of officials in the East Central Saskatchewan area. Pfiefer explains that officiating volleyball can be a nice supplement to one’s income at the same time as volunteering an invaluable service to the community. “We need officials to keep a thriving volleyball community in Yorkton running smoothly throughout the high school, elementary and club volleyball seasons at with so many games there is plenty of opportunity to work matches during the week and at various weekend tournaments throughout the fall.” The clinic will be free of charge and held at the YRHS September 9 at 7:00 p.m.

Rapid fire rants: 2013 NFL Season Preview edition Ruttig’s rants
My rapid fire take on all (most) 32 teams ahead of this weekend’s start to the NFL season: NFC East New York Giants: The G-Men look like an afterthought after a disappointing 2012, but as we have found out before you shouldn’t count out the two time Super Bowl champs of the 00’s. Philadelphia Eagles: New coach in Chip Kelly, likely no playoffs. Dallas Cowboys: Like the Giants, the Cowboys are hit and miss Washington Redskins: With RGIII at QB, the Redskins should easily win the East this year. NFC West Seattle Seahawks: Couldn’t find a way past the 49ers last season, expect them to be hungrier in 2013. Arizona Cardinals: Rookie Tyran Mathieu might be the early Rookie of the Year candidate in the NFC. St. Louis Rams: A sleeper team like the Cards out West, but Seattle/San Fran look too good. Wild Card is possible. San Francisco 49ers: It is a toss up between last year’s NFC Champs and the Seahawks in this division, but both are contenders for the Super Bowl. NFC South Carolina Panthers: Cam Newton and Steve Smith have enough offensive firepower to turn some heads. Atlanta Falcons: Tony Gonzalez return for another season and more firepower have the Falcons as my NFC favorite.
Column Chase Ruttig New Orleans Saints: Will be better than last season now that Sean Payton’s suspension is lifted, the question is how good will they be. Tampa Bay Bucs: Getting there, but not quite yet. NFC North Green Bay Packers: Favorite to win the division every year, but this is the best division in football, something that often keeps them from the Super Bowl. Chicago Bears: Contenders in any other division, a Wild Card team if they can beat on non-North teams. Minnesota Vikings: Adrian Peterson is all the purple need to make the playoffs again likely. Detroit Lions: Burning question: Will Detroit ever be able to put together their group of promising talent? Adding Reggie Bush could get them there.
AFC East New England Patriots: The fact that I am skipping the rest of the teams in this division show how one sided the AFC East has been in the 00’s. Expect it to be again, even without Aaron Hernandez. AFC North Pittsburgh Steelers: You can’t count them out, but the Steelers are getting old fast. A dropoff year perhaps. Baltimore Ravens: An exodus after winning the Super Bowl has been addressed and Joe Flacco got paid. They will be back. Cincinnati Bengals: Outside of the Ravens, the Bengals impressive defense has them as AFC North contenders. Cleveland Browns: They are the Cleveland Browns AFC South Tennessee Titans: Chris Johnson will need to get back in 2, 000 rushing yard form if the Titans want the playoffs. Indianapolis Colts: Another year for Andrew Luck should be an improvement for the Colts. Houston Texans: Division favorites and Super Bowl contenders should they stay healthy. AFC West Denver Broncos: Peyton Manning’s team will go as far as his ever fading arm takes them. Thankfully the AFC West stinks. Super Bowl Prediction: Falcons over Texans
Kory Sheets and the Riders both historic heading into Labour Day By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer It may have taken longer than expected on Sunday, but eventually the Saskatchewan Roughriders did what they were expected to do and beat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 48-25 in a game that at one point was a lot closer than the scoreline indicates. After one half of football it was Winnipeg that somehow found themselves in the drivers seat, thanks largely in part of the Riders newfound penchant for starting off
games slowly. A sputtering offence and a leaky secondary resulted in the Blue Bombers getting their way just enough to leave the first half with an 18-14 lead, a result that nobody saw coming. In the second half the Blue Bombers kept giving the full effort that they brought out to start the game, but it didn’t matter as the Riders stepped on the gas and showed their rivals there would be no upsets. Kory Sheets opened up the scoring with a touchdown run (his second of the game) to get the ball rolling and give
the Riders a lead they wouldn’t relinquish for the rest of the second half. A Goltz 46 yard scramble would be the Bombers only success in putting points on the board as the second half turned out to be all Riders, all the time. In the fourth quarter Taj Smith wrapped up the game, catching touchdowns on two very similar red zone slant routes. Taj had seven catches for 89 yards and two touchdowns on the day with those two touchdowns sealing the Labour Day win, but he still wasn’t biggest story
in the Riders receiving group. The game’s most pleasant surprise was the return of Geroy Simon as a gamebreaking receiver. The CFL’s most prolific receiver caught two touchdowns on Sunday, stepping his game up for the Labour Day Classic with a performance that won’t be forgotten. Simon hauled in two touchdowns to put the cherry on top, inching closer to Ben Cahoon’s all-time reception record. For now “Geroooooy” is sitting 11 back of the all-time record, a number that the man
who has caught at least one reception in 179 consecutive games should break by the end of the season. Darian Durant, was a strong 24-35 for 310 yards, and four td’s. He also had three carries for 34 yards, showing how big the Labour Day Classic game means to him by testing out his ankle that has been bothering him by scrambling out of the pocket. Expect Durant to bring his best again for the Banjo Bowl. Next up for the Riders is the rematch, the first Banjo Bowl at Winnipeg’s
13091SS00
new stadium before the Riders play host to the Argos and Lions. Despite being 8-1 the Riders still have the Stamps and Lions hot on their tails for first place in the West and home field advantage in the West Final, if they want to make the first half of their season count for something they will have to keep winning as the dominating West just keeps on rolling each week. It starts all over again in Winnipeg on Sunday where you can expect the Riders to make it 9-1 as they get closer to the 2013 Grey Cup

Students travel for martial arts championships By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer Yorkton Martial Arts Training Center sent a pair of athletes to the WOMAA Open World Martial Arts Championships last month, seeing both athletes achieve new heights in their young martial arts careers. In August Gracynn Gurniak-Hudy and Colton LaBelle competed in Dublin, Ireland with Team Canada on the world stage, a once in a lifetime even that was achieved through hard work and dedication saw the two young pupils of the YMATC overseas to represent their country. Tournament days were long, start-
ing at 9:00 a.m. and lasting until 10:00 p.m. on each of the three days filled with competition and cheering on the rest of their team. The two also gave their Team Canada members something to cheer about, securing a handful of medals for Canada and the YMATC. Gracynn competed in five events earning three silver medals in her point sparring, musical forms and continuous sparring events, failing to win gold yet leaving Ireland with a more than satisfactory haul of three medals at the international competition. Colton competed in two events and took silver in continuous sparring
and won the gold in his point sparring division to take home two medals at the tournament. Mike Forster commented that the pair of students have “Both have overcome their own adversities and have proven that hard work and dedication pay off.” Colton and Gracynn would like to thank the numerous sponsors in the bottle drives, steak night, raffle draw, garage sales, and generous donations that helped get them to Ireland as well as their friends, family and coaches for the tremendous support, encouragement and extra training on the path to success. The experience of the world tournament and touring Ireland after-
ward will be one that they won’t soon forget and meeting new martial arts friends from Canada and around the world is driving them to continue their journey towards black belt, more local tournaments and hopefully another world championship trip in the future according to YMATC’s instructor Mike Forster. After impressing on the world stage for their country at an international martial arts event the future is high for two of Yorkton’s young martial arts pupils, showing that there is opportunity for the martial arts community to grow in the city, opportunity that stretches beyond Canada’s borders.
COLTON LABELLE/GRACYNN GURNIAK-HUDY attended the 2013 WOMAA Open World Martial Arts Championships in Dublin, Ireland, with both Yorkton Martial Arts Training Center athletes taking home medals (pictured below) at the event.
