Sask. communities benefi t gaming grants More than 700 groups and organizations across the province – including in Yorkton and area – will re-ceive more than $1.2 million in charitable gaming grants from the Saskatchewan Li-quor and Gaming Authority (SLGA). “These groups and organi-zations work hard to better
their communities through their volunteer efforts,” Min-ister responsible for SLGA Donna Harpauer comments. “Our government is pleased to assist the efforts of these volunteers by pro-viding funding through the charitable gaming grant pro-gram.” Among the grants provided
by SLGA this quarter: York-ton and surrounding area re-
ceived $82,439; North Battle-ford and surrounding area: $55,842; Lloydminster and surrounding area: $52,013; Estevan and surrounding area: $27,963 and Meadow Lake and surrounding area: $25,834. The quarterly grants are based on 25 per cent of net proceeds raised by groups
and organizations through licensed charitable gaming activities such as bingos, raf-fl es, breakopen tickets, Tex-as Hold’em poker and Monte Carlo events. Charitable gaming fi nan-cial reports submitted by groups are used by SLGA to automatically calculate grant amounts.

Saskatchewan’s Water Security Agency recently released the February forecast and fi rst outlook of the spring runoff and with the snowfall received this winter, an above nor-mal runoff is expected. “The spring runoff is impacted by a variety of factors like moisture con-ditions in the fall, snow accumulation in the win-ter as well as the rate of melt and amount of rain-fall in the spring,” Min-ister responsible for Wa-ter Security Agency Ken Cheveldayoff says. “The Water Security Agency is paying close attention to these factors and will as-sess the situation as we approach spring.” The last half of 2012 saw below normal rain-fall which left most of the agricultural areas in Sas-katchewan with relative-ly dry conditions going into the winter season. To date, there has been above normal winter pre-cipitation and well above average water equivalent in the snowpack for this time of year. If the pre-cipitation conditions go-ing forward remain the same as their historical averages, there will be an above average spring
runoff this year. The February forecast should be used as a gen-eral guide as local con-ditions may vary. The full February forecast is available online at www.wsask.ca. The Water Security Agency will be updating this forecast in March with the best available information.Since 2010, the Water Security Agency has in-vested over $25 million in fl ood mitigation efforts to more than 1,400 individ-uals, communities, rural municipalities and First Nations. The Water Security Agency was created to lead implementation of the 25 Year Saskatch-ewan Water Security Plan.
For the fi rst time ever, Saskatchewan exported more than $11 billion in agri-food products in 2012, and re-mains the nation’s top agri-food exporter. In total, Saskatchewan accounted for 23 per cent of Canada’s agri-food exports in 2012. “Saskatchewan farmers and ranchers continue to provide safe, reliable and high quality agri-food prod-ucts here at home and around the world,” Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart says. “Our government continues to invest in areas such as market development and research to create oppor-tunities for our producers to increase our agriculture exports in the future.” The Saskatchewan Plan for Growth includes a goal to increase agri-food exports to $15 billion by 2020. The record $11.1 billion in 2012 agri-food exports is an increase of nine per cent over 2011, and an increase of 75 per cent since 2007, representing a signifi cant step in achieving this goal. Agriculture continues to have a major impact on the province’s economy, accounting for over one third of all provincial exports. Canola seed continues to be the top agri-food export at $2.7 billion in 2012. Canola seed exports have increased 25 per cent since last year and 215 per cent since 2007. Other top agri-food ex-ports in 2012 included wheat ($2 billion), canola oil ($1.7 billion), durum ($1.2 billion) and lentils ($673 million). “We have been able to expand opportunities for pro-ducers to grow existing and emerging markets like In-dia and China thanks to several trade missions where agriculture featured prominently,” Minister respon-sible for Trade Tim McMillan adds. “We will continue our work to secure improved access and ensure Sas-katchewan’s agri-food exports benefi t from the grow-ing demand in these markets.” Saskatchewan agri-food products have a larger reach than ever before, providing the majority of the mustard found in France’s Dijon mustard products, the majority of the oats in Cheerios cereal and the major-ity of the world’s entire trade of peas and canary seed. The top fi ve markets for Saskatchewan agriculture products are the United States, China, Japan, Mexico and India. In 2012, 18 countries each purchased more than $100 million in Saskatchewan agri-food exports, making Saskatchewan agriculture one of the most sig-nifi cant providers of food around the world.
Sask. in the lead
Runoff above the norm
Ed, my neighbor next door, has a saying. “It’s alright to talk about the mistakes of others, for they won’t be men-tioning them.” He was quick to tell me that I shouldn’t be working overnight shifts in December. “It is a mis-take, as you’ll mix up your days and nights. You will fall asleep on the job and while driv-ing to and from work,” Ed insisted. Through the years, I have found it best to act as if Ed is always right. Besides, he often says that he doesn’t make mistakes, but a few people haven’t been smart enough to know that. I have had the opposite experience in life. More often than not, it will take me a few tries to get anything right. My track record has been about fifty – fifty. As a kid, I often had my boots on the wrong feet, had t-shirts inside out, got way too much glue on stuff, lost library books and made any number of mis-takes of every kind and size. One particular mis-take I made as a child was thinking store-bought was much bet-ter than homemade. Every Christmas, my grandmother would give me a hand-knitted sweater. I was mistak-en about her gift. I thought it was an awful gift. Who wanted a sweat-er for Christmas? I sure didn’t. All my grand-mother’s hours of knit-ting a sweater for me were wasted on me. I was too foolish to understand that her gift to me was her work and time given in mak-
ing the sweater. It took me a lot of years before I realized how wrong I had been about my gifts of Christmas sweaters. What we were once so certain about, we may later realize we were blindly mistaken about. Mistakes may go unnoticed and may be of little consequence. They can also be like the repeated biting of a guard dog. Some mistakes won’t lie down and leave us alone – they come back to hound us. Once I made a mistake driv-ing, when I didn’t see an oil tanker coming and turned out in front of it. The tanker sent my car and me flying into space and time. My car was destroyed and I was reminded of my mistake with every car payment I made for a replacement car for several years. When God gave the gift of His Son, Jesus, born at Bethlehem, few were even aware of the gift given. It was easy for people to dismiss Joseph and Mary as just two ordinary peo-ple. Most did not know Mary had found favor with God and that the child she gave birth to was to be called Jesus. The Holy Spirit had come upon her and the power of the Most High had overshadowed her. So the baby born by her would be called the Son of God. The angel Gabriel told Mary that nothing is impossible with God. Mary believed what the Lord told her through the angel Gabriel. Shepherds also believed when an angel told them that a Savior had been born to them, Christ, the Lord.
Some doubt that the baby born of the Virgin Mary is Christ, the Lord. Will it be a mis-take that hounds them
eternally? The Bible says it this way, ”God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.”

It’s Teacher Week! In recognition of Saskatchewan teach-ers and support staff, Education Minis-ter Russ Marchuk proclaimed the week of February 10-17, 2013 as Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week. “We have phenomenal teachers work-ing here in Saskatchewan. I have seen great things happening in classrooms across the province and heard impres-sive stories about teachers who really are making a difference in the lives of students,” Marchuk says. “We need to take opportunities like Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week to highlight and thank our teachers and support staff for their hard work and dedication.
They all play integral roles in the suc-cess of our students.” Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week is recognized nationally by the Canadian Home and School Federation as a way to recognize the personal and professional contributions that teachers and school staff make to children and their educa-tion. Marking the 26th consecutive year, this year the Saskatchewan Association of School Councils will celebrate the theme “Inspiring Success” to highlight the teacher-student relationship and the positive impact teachers and school staff have on a student’s academic suc-cess.

After 36 years of farming, Jim Gowland says he’s seen the industry go through an incredible evolution. Today, he’s unequivocal in his feel-ings about the current state of agri-culture in Canada: “It’s probably one of the most vibrant industries on the face of the earth right now,” he says and points to a similar enthusiasm among his fellow crop farmers.
Gowland, who grows more than 2,000 acres of corn, soybeans and wheat, is a strong advocate for tech-nology. He’s been using GPS and auto-steer technology for at least five years. He also grows biotech corn and employs pesticides when neces-sary. “These are tools that we use to maintain plant health and eliminate stresses so our crops can be more successful,” he says.
For the last five years, 100 per
cent of the corn Gowland has planted has been genetically modified. He says biotechnology has proved to be an invaluable tool in the battle against weeds and diseases. “We wouldn’t do it any other way now,” he con-firms.
Gowland adds that biotech crops and non-biotech crops can actually complement each other. In his fields he rotates between biotech corn and non biotech soybeans. The biotech corn crop actually helps reduce the weeds in the field so the soybean crop can be more successful.
Gowland says technologies like pesticides and plant biotechnology help farmers control the risks that are inherently part of farming, “Biotechnology, for example, can help crops make better use of nutri-ents and water.” He is excited about
the potential of drought-tolerant crops.
People often underestimate just how technologically advanced agri-culture is as an industry. “My son is a nuclear operator and he says there’s more computer power in my tractor today than there is in a nuclear reac-tor. That’s pretty incredible.”
While these tools help add to a farmer’s bottom line, they also help produce a quality product. “I’m a consumer, my friends and family are consumers, I want to produce a prod-uct that is good for all of us,” says Gowland summarizing. “Not only have the technological advances in farming been good for farmers, they’ve been good for society as a whole.”
