More people working in SaskatchewanThe number of people working in Saskatchewan hit an
all-time high in May, beating the previous record set in Juneof last year. New job numbers released today by StatisticsCanada show that there were 582,700 people working in
the province in May, up 4,800 over last May.In May 2015, Saskatchewan recorded the lowest unem-
ployment rate among the provinces at 4.9 per cent (season-ally adjusted), while nationally, the rate stood at 6.8 percent. Saskatchewan has had the lowest unemployment ratein the country for 20 consecutive months.
Immigration, Jobs, Skills and Training Minister JeremyHarrison said the new employment record shows the diver-sity and strength of Saskathewan's economy, even with theslowdown in the oil sector.
"Saskatchewan's economy is diversified with a broadbase of goods and services which has set us apart fromother provinces," Harrison said. "Our economic outlookremains positive - jobs are up, population is up, andother indicators like exports and wholesale trade are
making steady gains."Employers in Saskatchewan continue to look for experi-
enced staff. To address this issue and fill those vacant positions,our government has placed a priority on providing the resourcesto update skills and deliver training where it is needed."
Other highlights include:• Full-time employment was up 5,500 jobs or 1.1 per
cent from a year ago - a record high for the month.• Major year-over-year gains were reported for health
care and social assistance up 5,400; accommodation andfood services up 3,000; and educational services up 2,800.
• Youth unemployment rate was 9.7 per cent (seasonallyadjusted), lowest among the provinces, and below the na-tional rate of 13.2 per cent.
• Regina's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was4.4 per cent in May, the 4th lowest among major Canadiancities. Saskatoon's unemployment rate was 5.2 per cent, 7thlowest among major Canadian cities.

What possible good?By Linda Wegner
Hubby's been on a mur-derous rampage this pastweek and I totally supporthim; in fact, I have congratu-lated him for bagging ap-proximately three dozen tar-gets in just one hunting ex-pedition. Lest you're won-dering if we have abandonedall our Christian convic-tions, be assured that theobjects of these manhuntsare not human.
Here's why. Gardeninghas its challenges, no matterwhere a person lives andthose challenges certainly in-clude pests unique to everylocation. While I've finallyadjusted to the most of the
By Helen WallerI recently attended the graduation ceremonies at the local
high school. It got me thinking about all the advice andspeeches given to the graduates to motivate them and what Iwould like to say to the students if I were asked.
That's when I realized that life is not all that differentfrom school. The students would most benefit by knowingthat they can already navigate the real world.
Here's a few examples of some parallels.1. The hall monitor who gave you an ODR (Office Disci-
pline Referral) or ticket, is now the local police department.

School/life parallels
Five thousand desperate men, and perhaps as many women and children, had run onfoot around the sea of Galilee to find Jesus. Though he and his disciples were near exhaus-tion from prolonged and intense ministry, the gospel of Mark tells us that Jesus "hadcompassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began toteach them many things." (Mark 6:34 ESV). It is interesting to note that the immediateresult of Christ's compassion was teaching-not healing, or feeding. Later, the crowd grewhungry and Jesus fed the entire gathering with five loaves and two fish. This, too was an actof compassion, but in the mind of Christ the issue that moved him first and moved him mostwas the fact that the people were spiritually lost.
The Gospel of John records the same miracle, including its aftermath. There we see thatpeople found him on the other side of the lake the next day, hungry not for truth, but forbread. Jesus immediately exposed their motives and said, " . . . Truly, truly, I say to you, youare seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. [27] Donot work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which theSon of Man will give to you . . ." (John 6:26-27 ESV).
The people described here are just like us. By nature we pursue temporal needs andpleasures. We want full bellies. Eternal life and peace with God are far from our minds.Jesus counsels the people to "work for the food that endures to eternal life". Again, in atypically human way, the people want to know just what they need to do in order to get whatthey think is an endless supply of bread. "What works must we do to do, to be doing theworks of God?" Jesus replies, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he hassent", and he goes on to explain that he is himself the bread of life, and that they must eat hisflesh and drink his blood in order to have eternal life. What the people miss is that theeating and drinking Jesus speaks of consist of hearing the words of Jesus and believing in him.
The compassion of Christ is best expressed in the gospel: Jesus Christ died for our sinsaccording to the scriptures, and was buried, and was raised again on the third day accordingto the scriptures. Believing this, and trusting in Christ alone, we eat the bread of life.
Pastor Harley Porter, Gospel of Grace Fellowship
True Christian compassion
different bugs and beetlesresiding on the West Coast(as compared to those onthe prairies), the presence ofslugs continues to nauseateand infuriate me. Frankly Ifind them horrid creatures!They are slimy, elusive, de-structive and to top it all off,they flaunt their presence byleaving a shiny trail of mu-cus behind them as proofthey'd been there. As if Ineeded more proof than thetattered leafs of hostas, beansand head of lettuce that wasalmost ready to harvest.
"Way to go", I told Hubbyas I lauded his efforts, "go getsome more of them!" That'swhen I realized God mighthave had a reason for add-ing them to the list of crittersto create. I soon discovered
that He did. In fact, they're afood source for other ani-mals, they break down deadand dying matter includingdung and they're useful inrecycling nutrients such asnitrogen through the foodchain. While clearing areas ofsuch materials they alsospread seeds through theirown waste.
Have you ever felt useless,unlovely or totally rejected?Ever entertained slug-like opin-ions about yourself or aboutothers? Here's good news!

Just like hall monitors give you tickets for being late for class or running down the hallways,so do police officers. Certain behaviours are monitored in school and in real life. It makeslife easier and safer for the rest of the world. They really do have your best interests at heart,even though you may get sick of hearing them say “put your seatbelt on” if you are only ablock away from home.
2. The principal of the school is now your husband, wife or significant other. The lastwords you want to hear out of their mouths is “We need to talk!” The equivalent of gettingcalled to the principal’s office nowadays is the same as getting a text from your wife saying“Get home!” You need to respond. They know you heard them.
3. The history professor is now your Grandma or Grandpa. I know history class can seemboring, down right irrelevant, at times. All this talk about the way things use to be can seem lessentertaining than a Hollywood blockbuster, but believe me when I tell you that history isindeed relevant. It is the reason we got ourselves to where we are today. Hindsight is 20/20.
4. Students in your science class, whether it be biology or computer, are your GlobalWarming Research Scientists or Apple Care employers of the future. You don't need tounderstand what, or even why, they find science particularly interesting, or even understandit yourself. You just need to know it important that someone does the job they do. Studentswith a love for science are making our lives easier one app at a time.
5. Gym Class and the Jock. As a Canadian, I can't quite understand why we give the typical"Jock" such a hard time. I know you may not get to be the one to play on Team Canada, butwho doesn't enjoy watching Team Canada win another gold medal while enjoying theirfavourite beverage? What else would you do on our cold winter days?
6. The Home Economics room was something that never particularly interested me.(Sorry for the trouble, Mrs. Riffel.) The thing is, as you get older and move out, you willappreciate a home-cooked meal more than ever. Once you are living away, surviving onIchiban noodles and macaroni, you will wish you had paid more attention in your HomeEconomics class.
7. The janitor and your parents could be best friends. All of them are sick of you wearingyour muddy shoes in their porch. The only thing is, once you live in the real world there is noone but yourself to clean up your mess. When you hit 18, all bets are off. Both the janitorand your parents no longer have legal responsibility to clean up after you.
8. The classic field trip is now the real world’s version of an unpaid vacation. As a student,schools generally footed the bill for world experiences that they felt every student shouldhave the opportunity to experience. As a child, I went to places like the Science Centre,watersides or camping trips. Enter the real world after you graduate and everything changes.I still believe travel is one of the best forms of education, but the local Student Council willnot be footing the bill for a trip to Europe, Cuba, let alone Vegas. You will have to both planand earn your way to these places. (P.S. Vegas is something everyone should experience.)
9. The ‘Outcast’ student. We have either known one or been one. Do not worry if you donot fit in. The world already has what is has and is not perfect. It needs you to bring yourperspective and talents. Why try to fit in when you were born to stand out?
10. Your favourite class will always be recess. Whether you spend a day at the beach orhang out with your friends, make time for fun. Life is meant to be enjoyed.
Congratulations and best of luck to all the students graduating. Go out and make yourmark on the world!

City of Weyburn proclaimsNative Prairie Appreciation Week
The City of Weyburn is once again proclaiming the third week in June as NativePrairie Appreciation Week.
Since 2011, the City of Weyburn has joined the province and other urban areasacross Saskatchewan to celebrate native prairie, which will take place from June 14 to 20this year.
The Saskatchewan Prairie Conservation Action Plan (SK PCAP) has initiated theofficial proclamation of Native Prairie Appreciation Week (NPAW) in Saskatchewansince 1999. Provincially, NPAW is jointly proclaimed by Saskatchewan's Ministry ofAgriculture and Ministry of Environment. Saskatchewan is the only location acrossNorth America that devotes a week to raising awareness about prairie conservation.
"Native Prairie Appreciation Week is an important way for people to learn aboutprairie and how they can play a role in conserving our grassland ecosystems," explainsOrin Balas, rancher and chair of SK PCAP. "It's important for the entire province torecognize the values of native prairie but one of the main things NPAW also tries to dois educate and engage with people on a local level as well, including local proclamationssuch as in Weyburn," Balas says.

Since 1998, the Saskatchewan Prairie Conservation Action Plan Partnership hasbrought together native prairie stakeholder groups, including organizations represent-ing producers, industry, provincial & federal governments, non-government organiza-tions and research and educational institutions under a common vision for prairieconservation in Saskatchewan.
"SK PCAP has thirty partners all committed to prairie conservation," says NatashaWilkie, manager. "NPAW is just one great example of the native prairie conservationactivities we are involved in across Saskatchewan," she says, stating that SK PCAP is alsovery active across western Canada and beyond.
Seeding is nearing completion in the province with 97 per cent of the crop in the ground,according to Saskatchewan Agriculture's Weekly Crop Report. Progress continues to bewell ahead of the five-year (2010-2014) average of 73 per cent seeded for this time of year.
The west-central region is reporting that 99 per cent of the crop is now seeded. Thesouthwestern region has 98 per cent seeded; the southeastern, northeastern and northwest-ern regions have 97 per cent seeded; and the east-central region has 94 per cent seeded.
Heavy frost late last week has caused damage to crops and producers continue to assessthe damage; some re-seeding has occurred. Crop conditions vary across the province butmost crops are in fair to good condition. Concerns about crop germination and emergencecontinue in many areas that have not received much rainfall since April. Flea beetles andcutworms are causing damage in some canola crops across the province.
Some areas of the province received rain last week, ranging from small amounts to over aninch in parts of the southwestern and northwestern regions. Rain is needed in much of theprovince to help recharge the topsoil. Cropland topsoil moisture conditions are rated asthree per cent surplus, 51 per cent adequate, 37 per cent short and nine per cent very short.Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as three per cent surplus, 41 per centadequate, 40 per cent short and 16 per cent very short.
Farmers are busy finishing seeding operations and controlling pests.

What a very happy ending for a beautiful dog. Finding agreat home after being at the brink of death due to an ani-mal abuser. I just pray to God that the animal that is mostlikely currently being abused by the same man in Ontariofinds the same happy ending. I have been told that a nation-wide warrant for animal abuse cannot be issued under thecurrent embarrassing legal system in Canada. Why not let aman live in every part of the country, abusing animals, be-fore bringing him to justice? This is Canada, where every-thing seems to be "just the way it is."
Canada is a fantastic place to live, especially if you are acriminal. Maybe the small percentage of the public that ac-tually respect the enforcers of the law, could vote for somelaws that would actually allow them to do their jobs.

BROUGHT TO YOU BY:
If the majority of the Rider Nation is correct, their be-loved football team will be hosting a playoff game in Novem-ber of 2015.
In an online poll at RodPedersen.com, readers were askedin which place they think the Saskatchewan Roughriderswill finish this season. The poll will remain open until CanadaDay but so far the largest margin of respondents (45%) feelsthe football club will finish in second-place, which wouldcarry with it an automatic berth in the Western Semifinal. Ithink we'd all take that in a heartbeat.
In fact the breakdown looks like this:1st - 35%, 2nd - 45%, 3rd - 12%, 4th- 5%, 5th - 2%You can put me down in the 12%, as I'm going on record
this week predicting an 11-7 record for the Green & White,and a third-place finish.
It sets the bar relatively low but it represents a modest im-provement over last year's 10-8 mark and means the club wouldat least get an invitation to "The Dance". And what the heck'swrong with 11-7 anyway? The Riders' depth has been ques-tioned after being raided in the 2014 off-season and the 18games ahead will test how well it's been replenished.
The Roughriders themselves set the bar surprisingly highjust before training camp when General Manager BrendanTaman told a Regina radio morning show he feels his teamcould go 12-6.
That could be the sweet spot. 12-6 could very well get yousecond-place because I think we're all anointing the GreyCup champion Calgary Stampeders the West Division pen-nant right now. After a 15-3 campaign last year, they couldwell achieve 16 wins this time around.
In the end of course, records don't really matter otherthan to determine playoff seeding. The Riders finished 10-7-1 in 2009 but finished first and hosted the Western Final forthe first time in 30-some years. I've seen them finish betterthan that, but still have to go on the road for the postseason.
But one thing's for certain: everyone's goal is to get to the2015 Grey Cup at Investors Group Field in Winnipeg, nomatter which road they take to get there. And now as weenter the second week of Roughriders training camp in Saska-toon, head coach Corey Chamblin is envisioning his teamback in The Big Dance.
"This looks like a team that has the makings of being aGrey Cup football team," Chamblin said confidently. "I'mvery pleased with what I see. I'm pleased with the talent, I'mpleased with the way the systems are coming along and I'mpleased with where we are. Overall I think the staff is doinga good job, the coaches are doing a good job and the playersare doing a damn good job of making themselves ready toplay football games."
Frankly the only knee-knocking question mark surround-ing the football club is the offensive line, which was notedhere last week. The team is working to fill holes at centreand at right tackle and brought in 2-time Grey Cup cham-pion and former B.C. Lions centre Angus Reid as a guestcoach to help speed up the cohesion in training camp.
Veteran import Levy Adcock appears to be the one toreplace Ben Heenan at right tackle while veteran non-im-port Dan Clark is ahead of Corey Watman in the battle toreplace Dominic Picard at centre. So far the reviews havebeen good but the real bullets won't fly until this Saturday'spreseason game against Edmonton in Fort McMurray. Kick-off in the Northern Kickoff is 8:00 pm Sask Time (on TSNand the CKRM Roughrider Radio Network).
"Everything looks good right now," Angus Reid cautioned."The thing is you're going to see a different looking offensiveline from a scheme perspective. It's taking these guys a littlelonger to learn a new system, if you will, but what I will sayis you got guys here who are willing to work their butt offand always try their best. They're not questioning or fightingthe system and that's what you need. I think by the end ofcamp you'll see a well-oiled machine and I'm really excited towatch this group this year."
Perhaps I should've asked the Richmond, BC product tovote on where he thinks the Roughriders will finish in 2015.
Then truly, it would have been an Angus Reid Poll.(Rod Pedersen is the voice of the Roughriders on 620 CKRM
