REPAIRS SERVICE INSTALLATION Palletable Projects wins Chamber of Commerce national award Palletable Projects, a Jun- ior Achievement company formed by 23 students from the Weyburn Comprehen- sive School, has been se- lected as the recipient of the 2015 Canadian Chamber of Commerce Company of the Year Award. The award is based on a number of criteria, includ- ing attendance of team members, even distribution of sales among all members, teamwork, financial records and return on investment. As students in the Junior Achievement company pro- gram, the team had to de- velop a product or service, name it, market their prod- uct and run their venture like a company. The team de- cided upon unique, custom- made home decor signs, shelves, wall hooks and fire- pit chairs made from barn wood and recycled pallets. The goal of their company, Palletable Projects was to lessen their environmental footprint by using recycled materials. The concept was a hit, gen- erating many sales that re- turned a cash dividend to each student shareholder and enabled the company to donate $500 to two wor- thy Weyburn non-profit or- ganizations - The Humane Society and The Family Place. Earlier in June in Regina, the team, led by its student co-presidents Hannah Hextall and Kauron Kooper, were honoured with Junior Achievement of Saskatchewan awards for Company of the Year, Prod- uct Design, and individual awards for Spirit of JA (Jonjie Fellner) and Salesperson of the Year (Emma Chuckry). “It wasn't hard to motivate and guide the talents of this team as they were highly motivated to succeed on their own,” said their teacher, Margot Arnold. “This JA venture provided the opportunity for my stu- dents to learn about all as- pects of business. They were anxious and eager to learn all they could about starting and running their own com- pany. With each product created, it inspired the com- pany members to improve and develop their creative skills, making each product more outstanding than the last. It was a real-life experi- ence that prepared them for the world of business.” Darren Hill, president and CEO of Junior Achieve- ment of Saskatchewan, says the national award speaks to the quality of JA pro- grams for elementary and high school students throughout the province. “Our outstanding teach- ers, advisors and mentors, including businesses and fi- nancial institutions, help us deliver unique learning and experiences that inspire and benefit students throughout their lives.

Local man publishes hunting bookDerrell Rodine has lived and hunted in Saskatchewan and many other places in North America for most

of his adult life. He operates a guiding operation, with his son Craig, from his farm in southeast Saskatchewanand sees clients from all over the continent.

Derrell's book, A Lifetime of Hunting, published by Word Alive Press in Winnipeg, was printed in June2015.

“The title of the book tells some of the story,” says Derrell.“I have been blessed all my life with the opportunity to hunt and fish in the great outdoors and I wouldn't

trade these adventures for anything. I wanted to tell people some of what I've experienced because it is notavailable to everyone and I think they don't understand what they are missing. The hunting life and the lifeof the hunter is disappearing even in Saskatchewan.”

Some of Derrell's stories are funny and others are more serious, but they are all a reflection of a way oflife he was privileged to enjoy. The book is a slice of a particular Saskatchewan life over the past 50 years.

The book is available for purchase for $14.00 on Amazon or by contacting Derrell at 306-456-2520.Derrell and his wife, Joyce, live on a farm approximately 20 miles south of Weyburn.

New wildlife/hunting regulations now in effect in Sask.New hunting regulations

under The Wildlife Amend-ment Act, 2015 came intoeffect July 1, 2015, in ad-vance of Saskatchewan'spopular hunting season.

"Saskatchewan's valuablewildlife resource needs to beprotected and preserved forfuture generations to enjoy,"Environment Minister HerbCox said. "This new legisla-tion enhances wildlife protec-tion and shows greater re-spect for our natural re-sources by increasing the se-verity of penalties for thosewho commit hunting viola-tions."

The Wildlife AmendmentAct, 2015 will ensure that:

• The most serious con-servation offences will carryan automatic two year sus-pension;

• Those convicted onthree separate occasions forwildlife offences will have alifetime ban;

• People with outstand-

ing wildlife-related fines willbe prohibited from buyinga license until their fines arepaid;

• Individuals who arebanned from hunting activi-ties in other jurisdictions willnot be able to purchase a li-

cense in Saskatchewan; and• Wildlife officers will

have up to three years to in-vestigate hunting violationsand bring charges forward.

Earlier amendments alsoincluded a regulation to en-sure that people who are in

arrears for maintenancepayments will be denied theopportunity to purchase ahunting or angling license inSaskatchewan.

The Act will also ensurethat science-based wildlife sur-veys are carried out in a re-

sponsible and undisruptivemanner. Properly-conductedwildlife surveys and reliabledata submissions are vital

tools in the assessment, man-agement and protection ofwildlife populations and theirhabitat.

Police warn residents of on-line fraudOn July 5, the Weyburn Police Service received a call

regarding a missing nine year-old child. While gatheringthe initial information, and within 10 minutes, the youthhad been located after having wandered off from home.

As school is now out for the summer we urge everyoneto pay extra attention when driving and especially whenaround any of the school playgrounds or parks, as theyoung children will be out and about playing and may notbe concentrating on their surroundings.

On July 3, the Weyburn PS received a report of a do-mestic disturbance. Upon attending, the police found thata heated argument between a 43 year-old male and a 36year-old female had resulted in property being damaged.The male agreed to leave the residence for the night. Nofurther action was required by police.

The Weyburn PS has received numerous complaints inthe past weeks about animals being left unattended in ve-hicles. We wish to emphasize that while there is nothingspecifically unlawful about leaving a pet in a vehicle, it canbecome a legal issue during hot days especially if the vehicleis not left running with a supply of water for the animal.While each case is unique, there can be significant criminalcharges laid for causing suffering to an animal.

On July 2, the Weyburn PS received a call regarding adomestic disturbance. Upon arrival, a 26 year-old malewas arrested and held in cells for being drunk. No chargesare pending.

Also on July 2, the Weyburn Police Service received a

complaint regarding an on-line fraud. In this case, a busi-ness had been contacted by a person said to be represent-ing SaskPower. The business was told that the power billwas in arrears and if not paid immediately the power wouldbe cut off. An actual loss was suffered by the business. Thematter is under investigation.

We urge anyone in a similar situation to be diligent. Noreputable company will conduct business in this mannerand will at least send formal correspondence on the matter.

Further on July 2, the Weyburn PS received a request toassist in a family domestic situation. Upon arrival, thematter was mediated and an 18 year-old family memberwas escorted from the property.

On July 1, the Weyburn PS received a call to assist theSecurity Detail at the Weyburn Fair in dealing with anunruly patron in the beer garden. The matter was medi-ated and nothing further resulted.

On June 30, the Weyburn Police Service received a cryp-tic complaint about an assault involving a 33 year-oldmale victim. The matter is still under investigation.

On June 29, the Weyburn PS has received a complaintof a potential on-line real estate fraud. In this particularcase, the information from a valid MLS listing was usedon-line. The ad was for a down payment and rental of aproperty. We urge people to be particularly cautious inany on-line dealings, but especially real estate, as there canbe significant legal issues accompanied by significant dol-lars. 'Buyer Beware' must be the caution used.

CT scanner purchased for Sun Country Health RegionSun Country Health Region has purchased a CT scanner

from General Electric for the Region and is continuing plansfor renovations to St. Joseph's Hospital of Estevan wherethe service will be located.

"We are very pleased to be a partner with the St. Joseph'sHospital Foundation which has pledged to purchase the$1.2 million CT scanner, and renovate the hospital to ac-commodate it," says Marga Cugnet, President and CEO,Sun Country Health Region, and Greg Hoffort, ExecutiveDirector of St. Joseph's Hospital.

"We expect the new service for the people of the Regionwill be available by October. We are planning for improvedand easier access to this service for our patients," says Mrs.Cugnet.

A committee of experienced health professionals narrowedthe search for the equipment to three companies earlier thisyear and made the final choice of GE recently.

"We have a lot of work to do now that the contract hasbeen awarded," says Cugnet.

"St. Joseph's has had one staff member trained to per-form the scans but we need at least two more. That is hap-

pening now. GE will help plan and oversee the renovationsso the equipment can be installed properly."

The Region is also tendering in the province for a radiol-ogy group to read the scans produced. The images will besent electronically and no radiologist will be onsite. Medicaldoctors already practicing in Estevan will also need sometraining to deal with some specialized scans.

The CT scanner provides more information to assist witha medical diagnosis than an ordinary x-ray. It has manyuses, but is especially useful to quickly examine people withinternal injuries from car accidents or other types of trauma.

A CT scan can be used to visualize nearly all parts of thebody and is used to diagnose disease or injury, as well as toplan medical or surgical treatment.

The equipment is particularly critical for the timely diag-nosis and treatment of people who may be experiencing astroke so that if the stroke is caused by a clot, the appropri-ate medication can be delivered within the designatedtimelines.

"This additional imaging technology will help to improvethe quality of life of patients and that's what health care isintended to do," says Cugnet.

Fires and bottomless wellsBy Linda Wegner

Vast tracts of WesternCanada are engulfed inflames this morning. Thou-sands of folks have beenevacuated, houses have beendestroyed and across threeprovinces the skies are filledwith smoke and ash. As weleft for church today I wasreminded of the eruption ofMount St. Helen's. We livedclose enough to experiencethat "ash-snow" but this timeit's fire, multiple fires, in fact,that are burning far too closefor comfort.

I can't even imagine theemotions that f lood thehearts and minds of thosewho have had to leave their

By Helen WallerI have been spending a lot of time on the golf course these

days and I am getting familiar with terms like mulligan beingused by players. So, I decided to do some research and seeexactly what the term mulligan means.

According to Wikipedia (the online version of the ency-clopedia), a mulligan can be defined in two ways.

The first definition is as follows.1. “a stew made from odds and ends of food.”(Sort of a last minute, what is in the fridge, let’s try mixing

that together, kind of meal.)

Mu-lli-gan

I heard an interesting story about a dog. A man was given a dog that was very nice but notvery bright. The dog couldn't do anything. He wouldn't sit, lie down or come when called.He didn't even seem to know his name. The dog was a Rottweiler. A stupid Rottweiler justdidn't seem right to me, as I know they are very smart dogs. But one day, the man was out inthe park, with his dog, and along came a Chinese man, with his dog. The Chinese man spoketo his dog in Mandarin, and the dog would sit down, lie down, or come when called. But theRottweiler was listening to the Chinese man, and he started doing the same things as theother dog. Both dogs would sit down, lie down or come when called. The man realizedimmediately that his dog wasn't stupid, he just didn't know English, but knew Mandarin.The man took some lessons in Mandarin and then was able to give commands the dog couldunderstand.

I think that we sometimes make the same mistake as the man with the Rottweiler. We thinkthat others are stupid. The truth is more likely that the other person knows other things. Hemight not know the things that you know but then you don't know some of things that heknows.

Another mistake is that we sometimes think that we are stupid. We compare ourselveswith others and the other seems smarter in every way. But this is not true. Each person hasabilities in some areas. We shouldn't put others down for their lack of understanding norshould we do this for ourselves. I think that it is best to respect the intelligence that God hasgiven to each person.

Rev. Doug Loden, Calvary Baptist Church

A stupid dog that wasn’t

homes to the fury of flames.Though I live mere minutesfrom the shores of the PacificOcean, the description "rainforest country" has becomemore a memory than a real-ity. The current situation hasresulted in bans on all openfires and railings against thosewho carelessly discard ciga-rette butts.

In addition to the hazethat turned our moon bloodred and painted our blueskies an eerie shade of brown,there's more evidence of theseriousness of it all. Facebookis flooded with commentsand photos and someneighbours are now aban-doning their lawnmowersand erecting signs which read:Brown is the New Green.Lush manicured expanses

surrounding homes andpublic buildings have tempo-rarily lost their appeal becauseas much as I enjoy verdantlawns, I'd rather preserve ourcity's water supply for mybeans, tomatoes and onions.

There are days when mysoul feels parched, too,scorched from the daily ex-posure of life. As a psalmist,one of the sons of Korah,once wrote, "As the hart pantsand longs for the waterbrooks, so I pant and longfor You, O God." (Psalm42:1)

Thank God, there's nobottom to the well of livingwater, no restrictions on howdeeply we may drink to slakeour thirst.

"If one dream should fall and break into a thousandpieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces

up and begin again."- Flavia Weedn

Thought for the week

I can honestly say that after a day at work, with only a limited amount of time before wehead out to the rink, ball diamond or dance class, many of my meals have resembled this.

The only thing I have ever heard my children refer to it as, is “what on earth is this?”I am happy to know that I can correct them and let them know that indeed my cooking is

what we refer to as a mulligan. You may have also had this kind of meal at your Grandma’shouse, but for whatever reason, no matter what she threw in there, it always tasted delicious.

The second definition refers to golf.2. “an extra stroke allowed after a poor shot, not counted on the score card (in informal

golf)”It didn't take me long to realize I enjoy the term mulligan in my kitchen, as well as my golf

game. What's not to like about getting a second chance at a shot without having to mark iton your score card, especially since my score resembles a strong 18, even though I only golfednine holes.

I am really enjoying the mulligan both on and off the course and I can't help but thinkabout all the other areas in my life that it could benefit. The benefits of a mulligan could beenjoyed more than just in the kitchen and your golf game. Imagine the possibilities.

Whether it be a first date, a job interview, a time when you put your foot in your mouth,or a Rider game, there are times we could all use a mulligan - a chance to do something overwithout having to mark it on our ‘score card’.

So next time, no matter on which field you are playing - whether it be a golf course, kitchenor somewhere else - if you mess up the first time and need a second chance - get up, wipe offthe dust and declare it a MULLIGAN.

ALL FARMERS KNOW DECISIONS are made in the field. Imagine a place, an event, created to empower farmers by providing the information they need to make these important decisions. A place where they can see the latest equipment in action, in the field – operating in the same environment it’s made for. A place where farmers can see multiple varieties of live crop plots growing side by side in the field.

This summer, such a place will exist. Introducing Ag in Motion, Western Canada’s newest and only outdoor farm expo. Debuting July 21 to 23, on a half-section (320 acres) near Saskatoon, SK, it’s the only show that provides an outdoor venue for progressive farmers in Western Canada that want to see and experience the latest agricultural innovation, all in one place. Ag in Motion will feature field equipment demonstrations, live crop plots and interactive exhibits such as “ride and drives” and smaller equipment demos.

“Ag in Motion will offer farmers a unique opportunity to compare crop plots and machinery, in action, and ultimately help them make decisions about the best products for their operations,” says Show Director Rob O’Connor. “There’s nowhere else in Western Canada where farmers can actually see multiple pieces of farm equipment in operation, take a test drive, or compare different crop varieties all in one place.”

What does an outdoor show look like?The Ag in Motion team brings together the expertise of seasoned farm show organizers.

The Expo is operated by Glacier FarmMedia, who owns Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show, the country’s largest outdoor farm show held annually near Woodstock, Ontario. Also part of Glacier FarmMedia are Western Producer, Manitoba Co-operator, Grainews, Country Guide, Canadian Cattlemen, Alberta Farmer Express and AgDealer. The team knows what’s involved in delivering an outdoor show, and the potential such a venue provides.

Now in its 22nd year, Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show delivers 750 exhibitors and 42,000 visitors each year. Most attendees come to see the newest technologies in agriculture. Its success is based on the fact that active farmers attend to do business – make decisions – and the show is dedicated solely to agricultural products, equipment and services.

Ag in Motion is applying the same model and will become a must-see event by showcasing cutting-edge agricultural advancements that empower Canadian farmers to help meet their goals in producing high quality, safe food in a competitive marketplace.

To learn more about how an outdoor show looks and operates, view the videos on the Ag in Motion website, www.aginmotion.ca.

Live Demos and Interactive ExhibitsThe number of Ag in Motion exhibitors is growing steadily each week and includes seed and crop protection companies, field equipment and livestock handling manufacturers, financial services, nutrition, baling products, tires, fertilizers and much more.

health care needs of everyone coming to any of our facili-ties or programs are looked after appropriately," says JaniceGiroux, Vice President of Community Health for SunCountry Health Region.

"Our staff can pick up the telephone any time, day ornight, and reach someone who will translate for us," she says.

"It takes less than 60 seconds to be connected, so people nolonger need to worry about not being understood. If youcome to us for any kind of health care need, including mentalhealth services, we will find someone to connect with you."

An influx of new people into South East Saskatchewan inrecent years has made this service necessary, says Mrs. Giroux."We want to ensure that our patients/clients and residents areall understood and this is the most supportive way to do that."

$1/dayTopsoil moisture conditions deteriorating

Haying operations are underway in much of the prov-ince, despite a shortfall in plant growth and moisture, ac-cording to Saskatchewan Agriculture's weekly Crop Report.

Livestock producers now have 10 per cent of the hay cropcut and five per cent baled or put into silage. Hay quality iscurrently rated as four per cent excellent, 41 per cent good,24 per cent fair and 31 per cent poor. Many hay swaths aresignificantly smaller than normal and bales will be in shortsupply this year. Pasture conditions continue to decline dueto the lack of rainfall.

The Ministry of Agriculture has a Forage, Feed and Cus-tom Service listing for producers to advertise and sourcefeed products. It is available at www.agriculture.gov.sk.ca/FeedForageListing.

Rainfall this past week ranged from trace amounts to sev-eral inches in some southeastern areas. Topsoil moistureconditions are quickly deteriorating with the hot and drytemperatures. Provincially, topsoil moisture conditions oncropland are rated as 32 per cent adequate, 48 per centshort and 20 per cent very short. Hay land and pasturetopsoil moisture is rated as 23 per cent adequate, 40 percent short and 37 per cent very short.

Crop development is advancing nicely in most of the prov-ince, although many crops in drier areas are short, thin andheading out and/or flowering earlier than normal. Sixty-threeper cent of fall cereals, 58 per cent of spring cereals, 52 percent of oilseeds and 59 per cent of pulse crops are at theirnormal stages of development for this time of year. Cropconditions vary throughout the province, but the majority ofcrops are in poor-to-good condition. Grasshoppers and lackof moisture have caused the most crop damage this week.Farmers are busy controlling pests and cutting hay.

June land sale yields $9.8 millionThe June sale of petroleum and natural gas rights raised $9.8 million in revenue for the

province at an average price of $570 per hectare. After three sales in 2015, land sale revenuestotal $32.7 million.

The Government of Saskatchewan continues to make it easier for the oil and gas industryto conduct business in the province. This fall, the final two modules of the IntegratedResource Information System (IRIS) will be implemented, enabling industry to conductsome of their regular business activities with the government online, including managingtheir oil and gas dispositions and submitting confidential land sale bids securely.

"Oil and gas operates 24 hours a day," Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. "Offering onlineself-service to industry for some of their day-to-day activities with the province recognizesthat business is conducted anytime and anywhere with an Internet connection. We arecommitted to competitive, stable royalties and regulatory environments, as well as lowertaxes, which have created one of the best places for energy investment in North America.Along with a world-class supply chain and making our services more accessible throughIRIS, Saskatchewan continues to be a great place to invest in oil and gas."

The June sale saw the Weyburn-Estevan area receive the most bids with sales of $6.1million. The Lloydminster area was next at $1.9 million, followed by the Swift Current areaat $1.4 million and the Kindersley-Kerrobert area at $398,141.

The highest price paid for a single parcel was $1.1 million. Plunkett Resources Ltd. ac-quired the 259-hectare lease southeast of Estevan. The highest price on a per-hectare basiswas $5,111. Highrock Resources Ltd. bid $330,937 for a 64.75-hectare lease south ofStoughton.

The next sale of Crown petroleum and natural gas rights will be held on August 10, 2015.

Motorcyclists to have further choice of injury coverageSGI is providing additional choice in injury coverage for motorcycle owners for the 2016

riding season.Motorcycle owners can already choose between the full package of No Fault injury ben-

efits and Tort coverage. An additional option, planned to be implemented for the 2016riding season, will allow motorcycle owners to choose a reduced package of No Fault injurybenefits for a lower cost.

"Motorcyclists have asked for more choices in injury coverage, and government and SGIhave listened," Minister responsible for SGI Don McMorris said. "The new option is formotorcycle owners who feel they require fewer benefits in the event of a collision, andbecause there are fewer benefits, it's a lower cost. It also ensures that all motorcyclists con-tinue to receive some level of insurance coverage if they're injured."

Beginning in 2016, motorcycle owners will have three options for injury coverage:• the full package of No Fault injury benefits (provides more generous benefit levels); or• Tort coverage (provides more limited benefit levels but allows you to sue for additional

losses from the people who caused the collision); or• a reduced package of No Fault injury benefits (provides same level of benefits as under

the current Tort product, but without the ability to sue).The insurance rate for any of the three options is dependent on the make and model of

motorcycle, and its history of claims."The decision to opt for a reduced package of benefits is one motorcyclists should not take

lightly," McMorris said. "Motorcycles are smaller and more vulnerable than other vehicles onthe road, and a collision or fall can result in serious injuries. If you own a motorcycle, I urgeyou to give this very serious consideration to ensure you have the right coverage to meet yourindividual needs, as well as those of your family, in the event of an injury."

The decision to provide the additional option for motorcycle owners stems from feed-back received during the comprehensive motorcycle review that took place in 2013, as well asSGI's review of the automobile injury program last year. Other potential changes to the

injury coverage program are still being considered. It is anticipated further decisions will bemade by this summer.

Legislation for the additional motorcycle injury option is anticipated to be introduced inFall 2015, and passed during the Spring 2016 sitting of the Legislature.

Weyburn This Week, Friday, July 10, 2015 11

Pack a lunch and buckle up. This is going to be a long,bumpy ride.

I'm not talking about this column, but rather the 2015Saskatchewan Roughriders season.

Only four games in (two preseason, two regular season),this team has yet to taste the sweet sensation of victory. Thewinless exhibition season doesn't mean much but you have towonder what's going on in the rookies' minds, particularlyafter two close home losses to open the year (30-26 to Winnipegand Sunday's 42-40 double overtime loss to Toronto).

Some must be thinking, 'Are we a good team or not?'There's plenty of reason to panic, yet it's also far too early

to do so. The Roughriders may be winless going into Week 3but division mates Edmonton and B.C. can say the samething while Calgary and Winnipeg are only a game ahead at1-1.

The trouble is, the Riders don't seem to be trending up-wards in one key area: defense.

They gave up a whopping 470 yards to the Blue Bombersin Week 1 and may have trimmed that to 367 in Week 2, butit was disturbing that the Riders allowed Toronto quarter-back Trevor Harris to mount a game-tying touchdown drive -starting from their own 25-yard line - with only 1:08 to go onSunday afternoon.

A more aggressive defense was promised when long-timecoordinator Richie Hall was shown the door last December.And yet this bunch has been anything but so far this sum-mer.

However if you listen to the quotes coming out of theRoughrider locker room late Sunday afternoon, you'd swearthe Riders had won the game.

“A lotta good signs in all three phases,” Riders head coachCorey Chamblin told our CKRM postgame show. “We gottaget points. We have to have points if we have 500 yards.”

And with that, the finger was momentarily pointed at theoffense. However the only really glaring thing quarterbackKevin Glenn can be accused of is the 100-yard pick six hethrew to Toronto's A.J. Jefferson at the 5:34 mark of thefourth quarter which brought the score to 21-18Saskatchewan.

“Kevin wishes he had that ball back,” Chamblin revealedafter the game. “The team tried to fight back but the mindsetwas different after that. Defensive points against are toughto get over.”

It's equally tough for the offense to watch from the side-lines as the other team marches the ball all the way downthe field to tie the score with the game on the line.

We've seen this Roughriders team play in unison like afinely-tuned orchestra at times during the golden era of 2007-2013. We've also seen them scrap and fight like bar-roombrawlers at times too. One phase of the team covering foranother on any given day to help secure the win.

Right now they're not close to doing any of that, but it'sstill extremely early and it's clear Chamblin is doing his bestto keep his troops upbeat. Now in his fourth season, hismethods are very clear. If this team was 2-0 at this time, he'dbe “ripping them a new one” in order to keep them humble.

“(Chamblin) just said he liked our intensity, he loved oureffort and we're that close,” rookie linebacker Jake Doughtysaid of his coach's postgame locker room speech. “We're acouple inches away and we'll be a good football team.”

Sophomore returner/receiver Ryan Smith was singing fromthe same hymn book, stressing the positives. With 174 yardson eight catches and his second touchdown score of theseason, he had reason to.

“Our heads are held high,” Smith said. “We came outthere fighting and that's all we can ask for. We came up alittle short today but next week we'll be ready to go.”

That next week showdown is this Friday night against the0-1 B.C. Lions in Vancouver in a game I'm dubbing the BadBlood Bowl. Lions offensive coordinator George Cortez wasfired by the Riders following the 2014 season and has hadlittle to say about it since. Meanwhile the Riders' 45-year oldkicker Paul McCallum was turfed by B.C. coming out oftraining camp three weeks ago and he'll be making his firstreturn to B.C. Place.

Oh - I forgot to mention the Riders signed McCallum lastWednesday? At least the 23-year veteran was 4 for 4 againstthe Argos, allowing for some relief in the special teams areawhich ailed in Week 1.

So now in mid-July, we're still trying to sort out what the2015 Saskatchewan Roughriders are.
