Snowarama raises $105,000
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
THE 35TH ANNUAL SNOWARAMA might have been missing snow, but it still raised $105,033 for kids with disabilities. Snowarama Ambassador Bailey Clark (bottom right) and her family show off the big prize, a 2012 Yamaha Phazer GT.
Group needs help to save local history By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The battle to save the Yorkton Brick Mill continues on, and the group dedicated to saving it needs help to keep going. The Yorkton Brick Mill Heritage Society Inc. is raising money for a plan to look at the building and propose how to save it for the future. The group needs to raise $20,000 in order to pay for the assessment, for which they have hired Murray Miller of PCR Services Corporation. They have applied for a matching grant of $25,000, which would require the society to raise $12,500. There are three likely alternatives for the site
– funds required to pay for assessment which could be recommended in the plan. The mill could be closed and mothballed. It could be open to the public with limited access, or, it could be renovated for an alternate use. No matter what happens, it will never be a functioning mill. Any proposals will be dependent on what Miller finds to be the most viable option for the site, depending on the building’s condition and the work which would need to be done to have the building survive. The plan will go before

council in October of this year, and the group is hopeful that the final plan will be approved and they will be able to continue with their mission to save the site. Carol Bolt, director, says that the goal of the project is to save the city’s history, as the mill is one of the few buildings from the original York Colony that still stands. She says that the city needs to preserve the heritage it has left, since too many of the heritage buildings have been lost already.
“We have very few links to Yorkton’s past, architecturally, because things have not been preserved,” Bolt says. She notes that as the city is trying to position itself as a tourist destination, it should be a priority to have buildings that people would come out to see. Sheila Harris, secretary, says that the Mill is important not just from a city heritage perspective, but from a provincial one as well. It’s the oldest industrial site in the city, as well as being the last remaining brick mill in the province. “It’s architecturally and historically significant for Saskatchewan, not just Yorkton,” Bolt adds.

There might not have been enough snow on the ground, but the 35th Annual Snowarama event still had a good year. The event, which raises money for Camp Easter Seal programs run by the Saskatchewan Abilities Council, raised a total of $105,033. John Denysek, Regional Director of the Abilities Council, says that while organizers were disappointed that the ride had to be cancelled due to poor snow conditions, he was still pleased with the number of people coming out and enjoying the other parts of the event. “It’s my understanding that in the 35 year history, once in the ‘80s the ride was cancelled, and on two other occasions we had to move the ride out to Good Spirit Lake where the snow conditions were better. Hopefully we won’t see it again for another 35 years,” Denysek says. He notes that the organizers tried to arrange alternate activities in order to keep people entertained in the city over the day. Snow tags made people eligible for discounts at local dealers. A lunch was held at the Abilities Center, and participants were made aware of events and attractions in the city. Even without the ride, the day did raise a significant amount of money, and Denysek says it’s great to see that while the snow didn’t come, the support for children with disabilities was as strong as ever. “I think it just speaks to the charitable nature of individuals, snowmobilers coming out and supporting the cause. It’s all about enhancing the lives of children with disabilities, and we’re really proud of being able to facilitate that.” This year also marked the first year that Bailey Clark was the ambassador, and Denysek says she’s a great example of how these programs help kids. He notes that her family has been an active part of the efforts to raise money, and her school Langenberg High School has raised $2,800. “I think Bailey is an incredible ambassador, she has a smile that will light up a room... She has attended Camp Easter Seals for the past six years and the Summer Fun Program for the past two, so she’s well versed in how the money is put to use and an excellent example of what those funds raising dollars do,” Denysek says. The three top fundraisers for 2012 are Kenn Propp, Bruce Peppler and Courtney Frank. Denysek would like to thank all of the sponsors, volunteers, and participants for making the event a success, year after year.

Foundation/TD partner to educate and award It’s a bi-annual event that helps many local health care professionals further their studies. Last week The Health Foundation and TD Bank Financial Group announced the recipients of the Fall Education Awards for 2011. Applications are considered twice each year and awards are given each spring and fall. The fall awards saw 16 successful applicants for a total of $15,174. 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. The education awards program is very well received by Sunrise Health Region staff. The latest presentation represents the 11th consecutive year TD has partnered with The Health Foundation to make a
significant investment in the local healthcare system through the education program. “TD Bank Financial Group is committed to investing in the future of this area by helping to ensure that nurses and other practicing caregivers have access to funds to upgrade their skills and further their education,” comments Jonas Haywood, TD Canada Trust Area Manager for east central Saskatchewan. “This program has had tremendous success since it started. We have successfully assisted our nurses and therapists to enhance their education and improve their skills. This program has helped improve the quality of healthcare available in our local medical facilities.” The Health Foundation Education Committee and TD Bank Financial Group presented a total of 16 awards. The recipients of TD Bank Financial Group’s
scholarship awards are: • Cory Gray, YDNH Skinner Unit, is taking the LPN program; • Hilary Keller, with St. Paul Lutheran Home, is taking s the NEPS program; • Derek Keller, Director of EMS, is taking the Emergency Management Exercise Design Certificate; • Mary-Jean Vogel, is with Finance in Kamsack, and is taking the Health Information Management Diploma.

February 17 - 22 Sweet OVER THE TOP – The Yorkton Fire Department raised $5,000 for The Health Foundation February 3 to 5, helping to reach the Foundation’s goal of $212,000 to fund the conceptual plan for a new regional hospital. The effort was called over the top, and to keep with the theme firefighters were on the roof of the station for the entirety of the 48 hour event, sleeping in tents in the evening and lowering a boot to collect donations. During the campaign firefighters also sold hotdogs and did a “boot drive” on Broadway, as well as provided invaluable fire extinguisher use training to anyone who wanted it, with 300 people taking advantage of the opportunity. The original goal of the event was to raise $3,500, but when donations hit $4,300 at the end of the 48 hours, firefighters reached into their own pockets and gave an additional $700 to top up the total. Pictured above, Deputy Fire Chief Trevor Morrissey (left) and Neal Matechuk, co-coordinator of the event and fire fighters local president (right), present Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation with the cheque.

Just toying around – another successful event By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The Yorkton Farm Toy Show and Sale has been going for 27 years, and this year was another successful event. The gathering of collectors saw approximately 60 different display booths showing toys from a wide range of eras. One of those displays was for Custom Toys Inc., showcasing the toys fabricated by Garth Shyngera and Dean Fyck. Shyngera has been making custom toys for eight years, starting since his family sold their farm. The time it takes depends on how complicated the toys are. Shyngera says a production tractor can take from 30 to 40 hours, but he also does much more complicated toys as well. One of most elaborate toys he’s made was a working oil rig which he brought to the show a few years ago. It was a toy that got him a lot of attention, and one of the most difficult projects he ever completed he says. “It was a complete scratch build. That was the toughest build of everything, it was about a 400 hour project.” The goal is to bring out new ideas, focusing on things that aren’t on the market. Shyngera says each year he tries to bring a collection that’s a bit different, showing people what he can do and also getting ideas about other products he can make. “Sometimes shows make the business. When things are in front of you, people can see it, believe it, and want it.”
This year the theme for the Custom Toys booth was custom combining, and Shyngera says that was inspired by the show itself. All proceeds from the show went to the family of Lyric Solonenko, a local three year old boy currently fighting cancer. They went with combines for a theme because that’s what the family does, and also made a special combine for Solonenko himself, painted as a replica of the combines used by his father and grandfather. Fyck was the driving force behind the custom toy, and he says that it was something he felt he needed to do. “It can get emotional... it’s hard to see what they’re facing. Hopefully it’ll brighten his day up, the look on his face when he plays with it will be overwhelming,” Fyck says. Shyngera adds that creating the Solonenko combine was all about doing something for a family that will make them feel good. “Some things are not about money, some things are about memories, and putting a smile on somebody’s face...” Getting the tractors people remember from growing up is a major part of the hobby, Shyngera and Fyck agree, with most people getting started with those implements that they remember growing up. “It all starts out with getting a few pieces you had on the farm. That’s every kid’s dream. I’m 33 years old and I just got the tractor we had on our farm. He’s three,
Rotary Day slated February 23 is Rotary Day in the City of Yorkton. With 39 members active locally and over 1.2 million members word wide, Rotary Clubs do much when it comes to giving back. What would it take to change the world? Rotary’s 1.2 million members say they believe it starts with a commitment to Service Above Self. In more than 34,000 clubs worldwide, members are volunteering in communities at home and abroad to support education and job training, provide clean water, combat hunger, improve health and sanitation, and eradicate polio. Active in Yorkton since 1921, local Rotarians help to provide scholarships, support the Meals on Wheels program, contribute to health care, sponsor student exchange programs and help out local groups/projects that help enhance the lives of others. In light of that fact, February 23 will be Rotary Day in the City of Yorkton and residents are invited to come out to a special Flag Raising event on that day at City Hall. People are also invited and encouraged to get involved in the club. To learn more visit: www.rotary. org or contact a local member to attend a meeting.

Not ‘playing’ by the rules It seems our legislators who are to be working diligently to govern our country have found a new, pressing, hot-button issue to divert attention from actually performing the work they’re paid (and paid rather well comparatively speaking) to perform. As of late, NDP member from Quebec – Sanna Hassaina – brought her baby son, Skander Jack, named for former leader Jack Layton, into the House of Commons prior to an important vote on the long gun registry. Hassaina claims speaker Andrew Scheer asked her to remove the baby from the floor of the Commons. Scheer denies the allegation, saying he simply requested Hassaina take her seat and urged fellow MPs who, in his opinion appeared to be making a fuss over the infant, to maintain decorum. The issue became an instant political football, detracting from the business at hand. The NDP accused the government of taking an anti-child stance, which the interim leader Nicole Turmel, suggests would tend to turn young people away from politics. Women’s groups and ‘enlightened’ pundits see this as a women’s issue. No one seems to see that the issue appears to have taken our legislators attention from the matter in question, that is, the vote on the long gun registry. Some would suggest more workplaces should accept working mothers bringing their children into their workplace during business hours, but the practice isn’t as widespread as some might believe. Those who feel strongly about the issue, as do obviously Ms. Hassaina and Ms. Turmel, could have made arrangements to address the matter, rather than turn the youngster into a political football. Current parliamentary rules require that only elected members of parliament can be on the floor of the House of Commons during a sitting vote. Perhaps those rules, implemented long ago by a male dominated House need to be examined. But until that’s done should members be allowed to disregard established rules? We think not. On the other hand, given the antics, including name calling, heckling, and an apparent disregard for decorum, perhaps babies do belong in Canada’s biggest nursery.
To tip or not to tip? That’s the question Why don’t we pay these people a fair wage and let the “tip” be relative to the level of service provided and at the discretion of the customer? It’s a touchy topic – both for customers and servers – but wouldn’t this put an end to the whole debate? It’s happening in much of Europe and also in Toronto – “tips” at higher end restaurants are either becoming a mandatory amount (about 20 per cent of your bill) or, they are being automatically tacked on to your bill, with or without your consent. Service levels no longer factor in, you will tip regardless and you will tip well. That said, the idea behind the concept is that staff will be so ecstatic with the arrangement that they will give their all each and every day. The topic has now carried through to Saskatchewan where changes may loom on the horizon. Back in a day, weren’t tips generally representative of superior service? If you were happy with your meal and the care your server provided, you tipped accordingly. Now I realize servers of today (not all, but many of them) aren’t paid a high wage. These people depend on gratuity to boost their income. But is it right they can show up to work, (and I’m not saying everyone would do this, but you know there would be some) put in their time without any giving any special effort and
still bring home the same tips as the guy who goes that extra mile? I don’t think so. There are plenty of people who work hard – but in different industries – they too are underpaid yet they can’t rely on tips to pay the bills, matter how much effort Shannon Deveau no they put forth. In my opinion, people should be paid fairly and wage should be based on performance. If you’re not performing up to par then you shouldn’t be expecting that raise, or any type of tips for that matter – except maybe if they come in the form of advice on how you can pull up your socks. On the flip side, if you’re dedicated, if you excel at what you do, you’re an example to others and you go above and beyond in your role then as far as I’m concerned, you are deserving of the proper pay. Fair is fair. I do believe in tipping and I do tip, but there’s nothing worse than sitting down to a fancy meal, for which you wind up paying a good dollar for, receiving poor service, and then being expected to fork over a hefty tip. It isn’t just. This isn’t a debate that will be solved overnight. Nothing involving money ever is, but as a paying customer, I expect value for my dollar and why should my hard earned dollar pay the salary of someone who isn’t deserving?
The way I see it... Column
Distracting people from the real issues at hand If there’s one constant in the world, it’s that people do not want to see bad things happen to children. It makes sense, children have not been alive for very long, are often unable to control their own destiny and are the more vulnerable members of society. This is a good instinct, but it’s an instinct which can be easily exploited by those who want to deflect criticism. Since anything bad happening to kids is a negative, it becomes more difficult to attack proposals which are pitched as helping kids in some way. The cries of “think of the children” are positioned to drown out any protests. I bring this up because of the way a new piece of legislation is being handled. The new legislation would require telecommunications and internet providers to give subscriber data to police, national security agencies and the Competition Bureau without a warrant, including names, phone numbers and IP addresses. The part about being able to access that information without a warrant bothers privacy advocates, but Public Safety Minister Vic Toews says this is all necessary to protect against child pornography, and if one disagrees with the bill they are effectively on side with those who would want to exploit children. It’s a heavy handed way to avoid real debate. By making a forceful reference to the exploitation
Things I do with words... Column Devin Wilger of children Toews has made it impossible to discuss this bill rationally and openly, since he’s tied it to an issue which people are uniformly against. No matter what issues one might have with the wording of the bill, or its implications, the reaction from proponents of the legislation will bring up that one thing everyone can’t argue against. Instead of being a debate about how the legislation affects the basic rights of Canadians, it becomes about something entirely different, and it deflects attention away from any criticism people might have. While being able to gain information without a warrant worries some, it is an issue that is being effectively ignored.
The problem with a bill like this is it needs a mature, reasonable debate in order to reach a solution that can satisfy privacy advocates while simultaneously giving police more tools to deal with online crime. Since due process is a vital component of the justice system, any talk of giving expanded powers without a warrant is going to raise the ire of privacy advocates, but given the new and largely uncharted areas of online policing it’s also going to be difficult to figure out just how to balance privacy and the need for law enforcement. Unfortunately, Toews has dashed any hopes of mature, reasonable debate by taking the largely immature step of tying anyone who disagrees with him to the lowest of the low. It’s not a way to get people on board, and in some ways it feels as though he is attempting to hide some very real flaws. At this point, it’s clear that there is no longer any hope of a mature, reasonable debate, instead we’re getting a party trying to hide behind an issue that is very emotional, banking on the fact that it’s something nobody wants to argue against. It ignores the fact that this has much larger implications than that one crime, and that keeping things reasonable is the only way to get effective legislation. It’s a move made through cowardice, rather than genuine concern.

Your letter of the Week
A middle way for Canada’s oil sands Time to leave
To the Editor:
Recent polls suggest that public opinion of Canada’s oil sands is becoming increasingly polarized. You are either for the wholesale exploitation of the resource at any cost, or a cold turkey shutdown, at any cost. However, many Canadians are still on the fence. In the public debate, all of the usual suspects have blood on their hands, myself included. I’ve done my share of fighting as a communications strategist for environmental groups over the years. It’s a job that has paid my bills, and because I’ve always believed in free speech, I never had concerns about the work. All of that changed last week, when I decided to swear an affidavit and write an open letter to Canadians, detailing a disturbing story that ultimately cost me my job. In my affidavit, I cited several senior sources at Tides Canada (an environmental charity), alleging that the Prime Minister’s Office labelled ForestEthics Canada (a Canadian environmental group) an “Enemy of the Government of Canada,” and “An Enemy of the People of Canada.” I’ll leave it to Canadians to judge the morality of a government that would label its own citizens “Enemies of the State,” but needless to say, this experience touched a nerve shared by tens of thousands of fellow Canadians. My open letter has been shared and read online more than 65,000 times since I posted it. I’ve received hundreds of emails and phone calls of support from Canadians from all walks of life and political persuasions. The consensus has been that the government went too far, and this was a wake up call about just how uncivil the
public debate over Canada’s oilsands has become. This story is not about politics and polarization, it is about citizenship, and so too should be the development of Canada’s oilsands. The middle way I am proposing here will not be loved by the hyper partisans, but it will be supported, I think, by a majority of Canadians. First things first: the oil sands exist, production is underway, the Canadian economy is now joined with them at the hip. An amputation is not possible, but intensive care based on the following four key ideas will benefit Canadians: 1. The Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline should not be built. It is a bad project that would entrench Chinese ownership of Canada’s oil sands and pose an unnecessary risk to British Columbia’s wild salmon fisheries. The Skeena river fishery alone is valued at $110 million per year. Building the pipeline would violate First Nations rights, making responsible resource development in Northern BC, including natural gas and mining, much more difficult. 2. Regulation needs to catch up with production. In 2010, the Royal Society of Canada’s expert panel warned about this. We know very little about the toxins and acid rain flowing into the Athabasca watershed and crossing the border into Saskatchewan. What we do know is that First Nations downstream are experiencing higher than normal rates of rare cancers. This shouldn’t be happening in Canada. 3. Oil sands production should match a rate that climate change scientists say is safe. In the era of climate change, when scientists say we could reach summer temperatures as high as 52 degrees Celsius in cities like New
York, as soon as 2035, we owe it to ourselves and future generations to develop this resource safely and responsibly. Unsustainable oil sands development would contribute to a future scientists say could include a 40 per cent reduction in rice and maize production, at a time when the world’s population is heading towards nine billion. Don’t tell me the Chinese will accept a peaceful slowdown in oil extraction when their people are starving. 4. Slowdown production to extract the maximum value and develop a royalties system that will look after Canadians long after the oil sands are gone. Norway accumulated more than $510 billion dollars in its state pension plan when its oil fields were producing. The Norwegians are laughing at us. Why would we sell our best and most accessible oil as quickly as possible to the Chinese? Why ship it like raw logs when we could be making Cadillac prices? The price of oil is only going up. The longer we extend this resource, the richer we will be. There are other arguments I could make for the middle way in oil sands development, including the fact that many experts believe we have enough existing pipeline capacity to meet any reasonable growth in production, and the U.S. will buy our product ‘till the cows come home, but I’ll save that for another column. The thing I want to impress upon Canadians, is that we are citizens and we have responsibilities to one another and to the global community that we are currently failing to meet. Polarization is not helpful. Labelling critics “enemies” is downright dangerous. Andrew Frank, Troy Media Corporation.
More evidence of fear mongering on pensions To the Editor: Canada’s Parliamentary Budget Officer (a person hand-picked by Stephen Harper himself) today lined-up with many other respected experts to say Canada’s Old Age Security program is fundamentally sustainable, and does NOT require the cutbacks Mr. Harper is threatening. Those threats began in a speech the Prime Minister gave last month in Switzerland. He has since confirmed he wants to hike the eligibility age for Old Age pensions from 65 to 67. Mr. Harper claims Canada can’t afford these pensions anymore. But he’s wrong – experts for the University of Calgary, York University, UBC, the OECD, private sector firms, the government it-
self, and now the PBO – are all basically saying: “It ain’t broke, so don’t fix it!” This controversy starkly exposes this government’s priorities. They pump billions into bigger jails and costly fighter-jets, but they cut back on pensions and healthcare. They preserve the most expensive tax preferences for the wealthy, but they chop the modest benefits of the most vulnerable. The Old Age pension pays just $540/month. Three-quarters of those receiving it live on less than $40,000/year. Without it, one-third of seniors could fall below the poverty line. Delaying the pension doesn’t miraculously make the human needs go away. Neither does it save much money. It just dumps
the financial burden onto provincial welfare. And ultimately, there’s only one taxpayer. This past weekend, Mr. Harper came up with a new excuse for chopping pensions – he wants older people to work longer, whether they’re physically up to it, or not. Not only is this mean-spirited; it’s also an admission of failure in labour markets. Yes, we need a growing workforce. But Mr. Harper’s dragooning of older people to fill the gaps – even against their will – assumes only the most mediocre gains from immigration and abject failure in preparing young Aboriginals to succeed in the mainstream of Canada’s economy. Ralph Goodale, MP, Wascana, SK.
Restoring competitiveness across Saskatchewan To the Editor: Over 420 members of the Chamber of Commerce network across Canada, led by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, have identified the top ten barriers to Canada’s business competitiveness and launched a 10-point plan to help restore the country’s competitive edge in the global economy. The Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce (SCC) is proud to be a part of this initiative and as well as partner-
ing on the national level, is working provincially to address these issues. Many of the opportunities for improvement identified including resolving Canada’s skills crisis, improving the tax system, efficient regulations, building 21st century infrastructure, and making Canada a magnet for international investment, reflect issues that SCC is actively engaged in. To address our skilled workforce crisis, SCC has been working on a joint government task force to improve the province’s
provision of labour market intelligence and enhance training programs. We have also been a strong supporter of growing and streamlining the immigration process. Additionally, with regards to tax improvement, the Saskatchewan Chamber has been advocating for the adoption of a decade long tax improvement framework. All of these issues are hampering our economic growth and need to be addressed. The Canadian Chamber has done incredible
work across the country to bring this list of barriers forward. Now is the time for all businesses, residents and governments to unify and start addressing these issues in order to preserve our quality of life and the level of opportunities available to us today, and tomorrow. We encourage everyone to learn more by going to: chambertop10.ca/. Steve McLellan, CEO Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce.
racism behind To the Editor: Don’t you think it’s time to stop hating, discriminating and labeling the native people of Canada? Is it time to see each native as our next door neighbor, and equal Canadian and a respected member of our society? Instead we think they waste our tax dollars, are unemployed, gamble too much, smoke too much and drink too much – but doesn’t the rest of society do that? The native people I know are kind, normal and everyday people. They work. They don’t spend their money on cigarettes and beer. They actually go and help their own people. They become counselors, preachers and missionaries. They work as teachers and they encourage their children to build healthy, successful and productive futures. But we as a society who are not native think we are better than them because we work for our money. We don’t take government hand outs and we have jobs that meet our basic needs. Reality speaking, we forget that when James Carter came to Canada in 1543 the native people didn’t chase them out, didn’t try to harm him or take advantage of him. Instead they welcomed Carter on their land. They made signs that they wanted to trade with Carter. Each child, woman and man did a dance to welcome Carter and his crew. Carter got to see how they hunted, how they lived, what they wore and how they governed. Soon more explorers came, then settlers, then the trading post opened and life began in Canada. But the native people saw their way of life change. There was disease, war and they were kicked off their lands. Louie Riel and his Metis people were nearly butchered and killed off because settlers came to Manitoba to farm. No treaty was signed, no bargaining took place. The white settlers just took over and the Metis people were driven off. The rebellion came and many native people lost their lives. Today they live on reserves where there is no heat, no running water and there is black mould on the walls. They have problems with sickness, crime and addictions. They feel the shame, pain and disappointment that was passe on when their ancestors blood was spilled. Today they are still fighting. They just want a healthy, normal and productive life for their children and grandchildren. Do you think it’s time to put our differences and disgust behind us? Let’s support the native people. Let’s encourage them to go to school and to graduate. Let’s help them to make healthy choices and just see them as normal people rather than second class citizens. Racism isn’t the answer. Accepting native people as real human beings can lead to a new beginning for our community and for our country. Stacie Amber McLeod, Yorkton, SK.

The Saskatchewan Indian Gaming Authority (SIGA) has been settling down after their most recent expansion, so many might wonder what’s next. Zane Hansen, CEO of SIGA, was at the Painted Hand Casino for the recent Chamber of Commerce Luncheon, discussing gaming operations in the province. One thing that Hansen expects to see is steady growth above all in the industry. After the major expansions of the past few years have been completed, he anticipates that the industry will have a more steady growth, moving with the population and overall economy. “After 15 years, gaming is a mature industry, so you won’t see a lot of growth like you have when you have a younger industry and there is a lot of intrinsic growth. We still have a very good market though, and I think Saskatchewan compared to anywhere else in Canada or North America is a great jurisdiction to be doing business in,” Hansen says. Given that he expects growth to be maintained in the two to three per cent range, the priority for SIGA will be to con-
taining the growth of expenses, and he notes that they have kept increases in expenses under one per cent. Hansen notes that the business is often dependent on things like weather and the economy overall, and that this has been a good winter.
“This year it’s been on a good curve for the past six or seven months, and the overall consumer confidence has been reflecting that.” The gaming industry is good for the province overall, Hansen says, and he notes that SIGA spends $30 million
ZANE HANSEN, CEO of SIGA, was in Yorkton to talk about SIGA and what the company is doing.

annually on Saskatchewan-based suppliers, with approximately $1.2 million spent on businesses in Yorkton. Hansen notes that one of the primary goals of SIGA is to bring economic development to the First Nations in the province, and he says that they do that both through their profits – half of which go to the province’s First Nations, a quarter to their community development organizations, and a final quarter to the Province of Saskatchewan – and through being the first job of many people. “We often consider ourselves a developmental employer. If people join our company and rise through the ranks, we deem that successful. If they join our company, get a good skill set, get stabilized, and move on to other employment, that’s also successful in our eyes,” Hansen says. The next move for SIGA will be building in a resort-minded direction, with hotels being developed to go with the casinos, including a development in Yorkton, Hansen expects. He also expects technology will become a major factor in what the casinos can offer, and what people will demand.

Canada Summer Jobs Program says YES! Some hope to learn valuable new skills. Others have a specific goal in mind. But if you were to ask most students what they’re doing this summer – besides enjoying the warm weather and plenty of recreation – most would say they hope to find a job. A summer job is especially necessary for students saving for university. That’s why one of our government’s most popular programs is our annual Canada Summer Jobs program. The program is part of the Government of Canada’s
Youth Employment Strategy (YES), and it’s just one way we’re saying YES to the youth of our country. In 2011, the government helped fund approximately 36,000 summer jobs for students across Canada. This was thanks to a permanent $10 million increase in the program’s annual budget. The increased funding is helping more students gain the skills and experience they need to be successful now and in years ahead. Canada’s Summer Jobs program has been a

RCMPs seek public assistance Between drug arrests, mischief and thefts it’s been a busy week for local RCMP. Traffic stop leads to drug arrest
A traffic stop outside of Yorkton during the evening of February 8, 2012 has led to charges being laid against a 38 year old Kamsack area woman. Charges of possession of hydromorphone for the purpose of trafficking and trafficking in hydromorphone were laid against the female following the traffic stop and the subsequent seizure of approximately 80 hydromorphone pills. Yorkton Provincial General Investigation Section, with the assistance of Yorkton Regional Traffic Services, Yorkton Rural Detachment and Police Dog Services were involved in the investigation. The 38 year old female is expected to make her first court appearance in Yorkton on March 26, 2012. Hydromorphone is a generic brand of morphine which continues to be a highly abused and trafficked drug in the Yorkton and Kamsack areas.

Why would you not use fresh ginger? A few weeks ago I went to the supermarket to pick up some fresh ginger root for a cooking class I was teaching. I only needed a couple of tablespoons, so I broke off a small knob and proceeded to the cashier. She rang up my purchase and it came to a mere seventeen cents. Usually I purchase ginger in much larger quantities, and along with my regular groceries, so I have never really thought about how little it actually costs. Immediately I wondered why anyone would not use fresh ginger.
The fibrous root of the ginger plant is what we know as ginger available in the produce section of our local grocery store. This large knobby light skinned root is available is various sizes and shapes. When choosing ginger, make sure that it is firm, smooth, and free of blemishes and/or mold. Most people always have powdered ginger in their selection of spices and herbs, but fresh will provide a much more pure flavour. The only application I find powdered ginger preferable in is
Take part in the Great Backyard Bird Count Warmer temperatures and a lack of snow in parts of North America are setting the stage for what could be a most intriguing 15th annual Great Backyard Bird Count, coming up February 17-20. Bird watchers across the U.S. and Canada are getting ready to tally millions of birds in the annual count coordinated by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Audubon, and Canadian partner Bird Studies Canada. In past counts, participants were most likely to report American Robins in areas without snow. Will more robins be seen farther north this year? Will some birds, such as Eastern Phoebes, begin their migrations earlier? And where will the “Harry Potter” owl turn up next? Snowy Owls have dazzled spectators as these Arctic birds have ventured south in unusual numbers this winter – an unpredictable occurrence that experts believe is related more to the availability of food than to weather. Participants count birds at any location they wish for at least 15 minutes on one or more days of the count, then enter their tallies at www.birdcount.ca. Anyone can participate in the free event, and no registration is required. Last year, participants submitted more than 92,000 checklists with more than 11 million bird observations. These data capture a picture of how bird populations are changing across the continent year after year – a feat that would be impossible without the help of tens of thousands of participants. “The Great Backyard Bird Count provides an easy way for the public to contribute to our knowledge of birds and the state of the environment as a whole,” says Bird Studies Canada scientist Richard Cannings. “This huge database is an important annual snap-shot of bird populations across the continent.” To learn more about how to join the count, get bird ID tips, downloadable instructions, a how-to video, past results, and more visit: www.birdcount.ca. The count also includes a photo contest and a prize drawing for participants who enter at least one bird checklist online.
Feb. 20-26 is Kinsmen and Kinette Week
The week of February 20-26 has been officially declared Kinsmen and Kinette Week in the City of Yorkton with a special flag raising event slated to take place at City Hall on February 21 – Kinsmen and Kinette Day. Both local organizations are actively busy in the community helping to raise needed funds to support families in need. Kin Canada is the nation’s largest all-Canadian service club organization with over 7,000 members in Kinsmen, Kinette and Kin clubs across Canada. Since 1920 Kinsmen and Kinettes have contributed more than $1 billion to improve Canadian communities by building parks, sponsoring sports teams, providing student bursaries and helping families in need. Clubs have also raised nearly $40 million for Cystic Fi-
brosis Canada. Members brought to Yorkton the Portraits of Honor Tour, raising $15,000 to support families of the fallen. Each year local members work to collect money for toys for children in need and soon a highly anticipated Saskatchewan event will take place – the Kinsmen Telemiracle. The Kinsmen Foundation, through donations to Telemiracle, assists Saskatchewan people with special needs and those that require assistance accessing medical treatment. This year’s event takes place March 3 &4. To learn more visit: www.telemiracle.com. Yorkton residents are encouraged to get involved with both the upcoming event and with the club. To learn more ask any local member or visit: www.kincanada. ca.

Chef Dez on Cooking by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com creating a dry spice mix to use as a meat or seafood rub. Due to the pungency or “hotness” of fresh ginger, many people are selective about eating it and opt to use powdered forms for less intensity, or use no ginger at all. It is to these people however, that I suggest using fresh but in small quantities. One will notice that recipes will offer a fresher, more aromatic, ambience about them. A classic example of this is gingerbread. Many people, still to this day, will make gingerbread with powdered ginger. Using freshly grated ginger however, will bring your recipe to new heights by offering an abundance of character to the flavour of the cookies or cake form of this classic holiday treat. Just practice
“moderation” if the thought of the pungent taste in your recipe scares you. The easiest way to peel ginger is to simply scrape off the skin with the edge of a teaspoon, and then cut off the exposed root for further cutting as an ingredient. It is fibrous so it is almost always recommended to be chopped or grated, but it can be added in larger pieces to stir-fries or other dishes if desired, as the cooking process will help to diminish its toughness. It can be stored in the whole form in the refrigerator for two to three weeks or kept frozen for many months. Ginger is used in many applications. Not only can it be purchased fresh and in powdered form, but also preserved, candied, pickled, and crystallized. It
12023MM00
is also believed to have many medicinal properties and used to reduce fever, suppress appetite, stimulate digestion, and be effective for combating colds, coughs and motion sickness. To make fresh ginger tea, boil 1 cup of water for few minutes with approximately one teaspoon of freshly chopped ginger and sweeten if desired. If you dislike the ginger particles floating in your tea, then place the chopped ginger in a metal tea ball or an empty disposable tea bag. Dear Chef Dez: A lady ahead of me at a check-out bought a big bag of fresh ginger, because it was on sale. She told me when I enquired, that she just throws them in the freezer & takes some out when needed. Do you recommend this & will they lose their goodness or flavour from being frozen? Barbara, BC Dear Barbara: Although fresh is always the best, it is
possible to freeze fresh ginger for use later. We freeze fresh ginger to ensure we always have it on-hand – the texture is not as good but the flavour seems to be mostly intact and ten times better than ever using powdered ginger. We store it in the freezer in two forms: whole in one bag, and cut into small chunks in another bag. When we need grated ginger we take a whole piece out, grate what we need from it in the frozen state, and put it back in the freezer. When we want small pieces of ginger, in a stir-fry for example, we take out a small chunk and cut it as desired. Again, fresh is always better, but it can be done.

COLUMBIA SCHOOL girls’ doubles badminton player Mikaila Ortynsky sets to return a volley as her partner Joanne Mak follows the action at the YESSA city tournament.
it will continue for many years to come. This year the tournament features 10 area school with about 160 young athletes competing for the city title, Schendel reports. Competing schools include M.C. Knoll, Dr. Brass, Columbia, Yorkdale, St. Michael’s, St. Mary’s, St. Alphonsus and St. Pauls, St. Theodore and Saltcoats Schools. The current badminton season got underway right after the Christmas break, says Schendel. Schools generally host mini-tournaments to determine which players advance to the city championship tournament as each school is limited to 16 participants or two in each of the five categories. The competition categories include boys’ and girls’ singles, boys’ and girls’ doubles and mixed doubles. The tournament features a round robin competition. The two winners in each category will advance to the playoffs. Both the Christ the Teacher and Good Spirit School Divisions take great pride in allowing their student to showcase their talents. “We’ve got some amazing athletes out there doing their thing,” Schendel declares. While the young athletes may not use their badminton skills actually playing badminton, they can cer-
tainly use them in life, he insists. They’re learning about leadership, teamwork, commitment and work ethic. “These are tools that they will be using in their tool kit for years to come,” Schendel states. The YESSA season calendar started with volleyball in the fall. Curling was added top the program this year. Curling was followed by badminton. “We’re giving these kids a lot of opportunities to explore these different skills,” Schendel comments. He’d like to see the youngsters continue as they move through into high school. The basketball season will begin March 5 to March 9. Many of the elementary schools have already started their practises, Schendel notes. The season will run through March and April when the annual city wide tournament Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, April 23 to 25 will wrap things up. The winners for the YESSA city badminton championships were: Boys’ Singles – Nick Payne (Yorkdale); Girls’ Singles – Emma Teneycke (Columbia); Boys’ Doubles – Caleb Bymak and Derrick Budz (Yorkdale); Girls’ Doubles – Brett Lindsay and Lacey Senchuk (M. C. Knoll). Mixed Doubles – Halle Harris and Carson Welke (M. C. Knoll).

YRHS hosts mini tourney By ALEX MORGOTCH N-R Writer The Yorkton Regional High School (YRHS) Senior Lady Raiders also hosted a four team minitournament over the recent weekend. Coach Tony Hayden reports in addition to the Senior Lady Raiders, Roblin, Esterhazy and Regina Christian Academy battled for the tournament title. The event was a round robin tournament with each team playing each other team. The Senior Lady Raiders are doing quite well defensively says Hayden. Offensively they have some problems turning the ball over a lot more than he believes they should be this season. “That’s going to make or break the rest of our season,” he suggests. “If we are willing to take care of the ball we can advance. If we don’t then we’ll be finished early,” Hayden adds. The girl’s measure up well in height with a pair of seniors over six feet tall. They can use some improvement in their shooting. The big issue is being strong with the ball and taking care of it and not giving other people opportunities from their mistakes, he emphasizes. Following an invitational tournament at Notre Dame, the Lady Raiders will take in the conference playoffs, also at Notre Dame. YRHS tournament

The two top teams in each division will advance to regionals this weekend, Smith adds. The curlers at this event are all extremely good curlers from Grades 10, 11, 12 with one or two AP players from a junior league, Smith states. Some have a lot of high school and elementary curling experience, she notes. Many come from families with a strong curling background, she suggests. The YRHS has a team in each division, boys’, girls’ and mixed, Smith reports. Teams include the Toth rink for the boys, the Onda-Inglis rink for the mixed team and the Ratushniak rink for the girls’ team. The YRHS teams have the benefit of Gerald Shymko’s curling experience as team coach, she points out. Boys’ regional playdowns will take place in Foam Lake. The girls will play at Raymore and the mixed division will playoff at Strasbourg. Smith appreciates the assistance of the YCC as well as sponsors Yorkton Co-op, Shymko Farms, Yorkton Rotary Club, the Ratushniak Family, the YRHS SRC and Superstore. The number of teams entered was down this year but the quality of the curling was excellent, Smith claims. “The crowd was well entertained,” Smith closes. The Esterhazy girls team of skip Courtney Bertok, third Jade Kerr, second Jasmine Kerr, lead Brittany Lee and
coach Charlene Scharnatta- Kerr won the gold medal. Sacred Heart claimed the silver medal while YRHS took home the bronze medal. Esterhazy and Sacred Heart advance to the regional playdowns at Raymore. The YRHS senior boys curling team of skip Paul Toth, third Darren Tillman and third Brennan Pelechetek, second Brian Nagy, and lead Bran don Campbell claimed the gold medal for the boys’ division. The team was coached by Lana Stanek-Sebastian, Cindy Smith and Gerald Shymko. Winning skip Paul Toth says the team tried to play aggressively, forcing the opposing teams to make shots by keeping pressure on them. The team played good draws throughout the weekend, he adds. “It was a little nerve racking going to an extra end,” Toth admits. The Esterhazy boys’ rink were runners up with a silver medal to advance to regional playdowns, while Preeceville claimed the bronze medal. The mixed division title and gold medal went to the Melville rink of skip Jayden Gerhardt, third Cassidy Ottenbreit, second Aaron Haas and lead Keigan Duczek and alternates Kelsey Schultz and Mitchell Dales. Team coaches were Stuart Wilson and Chris Lansford. Skip Jayden Gerhardt says the weekend was tiring with three games Friday and three more Saturday, but it was fun. He says his strategy was to put up stones in front of the house then burying others behind them. If there was a possibility, he’d call for a raise takeout. An injury caused the team to have alternate Kelsey Schutz to come in and she along with the others played great, Gerhardt states. He suggests the team will definitely have to play well at the regional playdowns in Strasbourg. Runners up Preeceville, who claimed the silver medal, will join Melville at regional playdowns while Sturgis claimed the bronze medal.

CORRECTION – In the February 9 edition of The News Review two youngsters were omitted from the list of players. In the second row the last two players (at right) should be Holden Knights and Colby Vranai. We regret the oversight.

Graham Smerek and Brennan Wright each scored once in the first period to give the visitors a two goal edge after 20 minutes. Riley Paterson lit up the board for the Terriers midway through the second assisted by Brent Struble and Johnson. Johnson scored the first of two late in the period to tie the game for the first time assisted by Brady Norrish and Paterson. Brodie Eisbrenner scored the third goal for LaRonge to send the teams to the dressing rooms with the Ice Wolves leading by one goal. Just when it looked like the Wolves were going to eke out a narrow 3-2 win, Johnson notched a single handed tying goal, his second of the game, with just 37 seconds remaining in regulation time to send it into overtime. Struble came up with the big game winner just 33 seconds into the overtime period assisted by Geibel and Paterson. Terrier head coach Trent Cassan says the game against Notre Dame Saturday just got away from the Terriers, perhaps because the team failed to play with a playoff intensity. He suggests that despite the hiccup, the Terriers have had a pretty good stretch of games recently. Cassan suggests the Ice Wolves are a good team battling for playoff positioning. He compares them to the Terriers, a team which has no bigtime point producers but who has a lot of dangerous guys who’ve had a lot of playoff experience. Not happy with the effort in the first period, Cassan let the team know they have to step up and play with some intensity heading into the playoffs. “I thought some of our older guys did respond tonight,” he suggests. Cassan was happy with Jeremy Johnson’s performance. “He wants to score goals and he likes to score. He shoots the puck to score those goals,” Cassan says. Johnson is also working on other parts of his game to learn and develop. As a 19 yearold, Johnson is pushed by coaches and is expected to do well and he has responded in his first year as a Junior A
player, Cassan adds. Struble showed some good composure in front of the opposing net and was able to put the overtime game winner just under the top bar, Cassan notes. With the win, the Terriers have a three point edge on second place in the standings over third place Melville with two games left in the regular season. “We can still control where we finish if we take care of our own effort,” says Cassan. That’s a good position to be in rather than relying on others, he adds. After the recent weekend, the Terriers had two regular season game remaining, hosting LaRonge Wednesday and travelling to Notre Dame Saturday. “We have to

Swimmers turn in A times Game Star
The Yorkton Storm Speed Swim Club recently competed in their second meet of the season. Ten swimmers took part at the RODS (Regina Optimist Dolphins Swim Club) meet in Regina. There was a great mix of kids taking part from the team. Ten-year-old Bryant Jones swam in his first meet with the team away from the friendly confines of the Gallagher Centre Pool with the Yorkton Storm Swim Club. Jones had a great meet, improving his times in all of his races. Connor Watrych, also 10 years old, Jacob Baker and Austin Roberts , both 11, continue to shave time off every time they enter the water. Watrych erased 39 seconds from his 50m breast stroke and 20 seconds from his 50m freestyle events. He also added a top 10 finish to his plate by swimming to a seventh place finish in the 10 and under boys 50m breast stroke event. Baker chopped 33 seconds off of his 200m freestyle race. Roberts swam his 50m breast stroke event four seconds faster than ever and also took eight seconds off of his 50m back stroke time. Emma Just, an 11 year old swimmer, improved her best times in all four races she swam. Her best improvement was in the 50m butterfly, where she took 12 seconds off of her previous best performance. Five swimmers improved their
times and qualified for the Short Course Provincial “A” Meet in Prince Albert March 2 to 5. To reach the meet standard and qualify, swimmers had to swim an “A” time in competition. Twelve year old Kelsey Haczkewicz and 13 year old Jillian Just each swam one “A” time to ensure their spot at the meet. Jennifer Haczkewicz, 12, Jayden Lang,12, and Jessica Sanftleben, 17 each swam three “A” times. Three of the ladies also swam an “AA” time at the RODS Meet. Jennifer Haczkewicz swam her “AA” time in the 50m back stroke. Jayden Lang turned in an “AA” performance in the 50m butterfly and Jessica Sanftleben swam her “AA” time in the 50m freestyle event. The “AA” times qualify the young ladies to compete in the Short Course ManSask Championship Meet in Winnipeg March 12-16. The meet hosts the top swimmers from Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Western Ontario. This meet is the pinnacle of swimming for schoolaged swimmers. Jennifer Haczkewicz swam at the meet last year as an 11 year old and says, “I’m very happy to have qualified again this year, but I am most happy about having two teammates qualify along with me.”
SHHS hosts four team tournament By ALEX MORGOTCH N-R Writer The Sacred Heart High School (SHHS) Senior Lady Saints hosted a four team senior girls’ basketball tournament at the Halo Dome over the weekend. Coach Lana Haider says teams from Canora, Porcupine Plain, Melville and SHHS competed at the mini-tournament. The tournament went very well for the Lady Saints, Haider comments. The Sacred Heart girls claimed a win out of a tournament in Regina topping Regina Johnson, O’Neil and Tisdale. The Lady Saints have progressed well from that point, Haider suggests. Following a tournament in Langenburg the first weekend in March,
the girls will prepare for the seven team conference tournament at Notre Dame. The Lady Saints goal is to finish in the top four to win a berth at provincials. The girls work well as a team on the court, Haider reports. They talk to each other. They set up a great defense and they work well as a team unit, she states. Tournament results saw Melville claim first place with three wins Porcupine Plain finished second with two wins and a loss. Sacred Heart was third with a win and a pair of losses. Canora finished fourth with three losses. Leading scorers for Sacred Heart were Shayla Merriam, Emily Kruger, Morgan Shymanski and Katie Inglis.

YORKTON TERRIER right wing Jeremy Johnson was named first game star after the recent Terriers home game against the visiting LaRonge Ice Wolves at the Farrell Agencies Arena Sunday night. Johnson, who scored two big goals, pulling Yorkton within one and then tying the game to send it into overtime, currently leads the team in scoring with 21 goals. He says he now has to work hard to maintain his contribution to the team as it heads into playoffs. Now that he has achieved his goal of 20 goals on the season, Johnson says he’s now looking to make it 25 goals for the year. Johnson says the Terriers tend to play harder against strong teams and admits sometimes they may take the weaker teams for granted which has cost them on occasion. He says the team worked hard because they wanted to beat the Ice Wolves after losing to them twice previously. The Terriers want to win the next two games to lock up second place in order to come up against Melville in the first round of the playoffs. “We want to have home ice against Melville and knock them out in the first round,” Johnson closes.
