The first SUMA (Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association) convention of the new munic-ipal term had the theme of Dynamic Communities, Dynamic Leaders, and according to Yorkton City Councillor Randy Goulden, who attended the event, it lived up to that promise. The convention was the largest that has ever been held says Goulden, with 1,100 delegates, with about a third being newly elected. She also says that the demographic is also changing, with younger

councillors and more varied ethnic backgrounds. The themes for the event were reflected in the differ-ent sessions and keynote speakers, Darci Lang and George Cuff. There were also breakout sessions which focused on different areas of governance, which Goulden says reinstated the role of elected officials, both experi-enced and newly elected. She also says that the opportuni-ty to speak with the provin-cial cabinet. One of the most important parts of the SUMA conven-tion is the people you meet, Goulden adds, whether it is people within the provincial

Federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz and Saskatchewan Agricul-ture Minister Lyle Stew-art announced details of the 2013 Crop Insur-ance Program earlier this week, which includes re-cord funding and record coverage levels. “Agriculture plays an important role in Sas-katchewan and across Canada in creating jobs and economic growth,” Ritz says. “Insurance-based programs such as these ensure that Sas-katchewan farmers have the tools they need to maintain their success today and well into the future.” “We are committed to the growth of the agricul-ture industry by working to improve the Crop Insur-ance Program,” Stewart adds. “I would encourage producers to consider en-rolling in Crop Insurance to take advantage of the increased coverage levels and other enhancements to the program.” The 2013 Crop Insur-ance budget is a record $198 million. On aver-age, coverage levels are also increasing to a record $194 per acre up from $174 per acre in 2012, and more than double the coverage offered in 2007. Since 2008, the provincial government has continu-ally increased funding for crop insurance to address the needs of farmers and ranchers. New in 2013, hard red spring wheat and oats will be eligible for yield trending. Yield trend-ing recognizes agronomic advancements and in-creases a producer’s historical yields, which improves the current cov-erage available on those crops. The yield for hard red spring wheat will in-crease nine per cent and oats yield will increase 13 per cent, on average. The 2013 Crop Insur-ance Program also in-cludes increased Estab-lishment Benefi t values for fi eld peas, canola and identity-preserved cano-la; expansion of the insur-able region for soybeans; and expansion of the in-surable region for corn. Crop Insurance en-hancements made in previous years will also continue in 2013. These include up to $100 per eligible acre Unseeded Acreage Benefi t, yield cushioning and 100 per

cent wildlife damage com-pensation. As a result of record coverage and con-tinued crop insurance en-hancements, there will be no ad-hoc AgriRecovery Program for weather-re-lated disasters in 2013.In 2013, for the fi rst time ever, private reinsurance will be purchased for the Crop Insurance Program to stabilize premiums, which will help protect producers in the event of a large claim year. Pur-chasing private reinsur-ance was a recommenda-tion from the 2008 Crop Insurance Review. “We appreciate the re-cord investment, record coverage and continued improvements to the Crop Insurance Program,” SARM President David Marit comments. “Saskatchewan canola producers welcome the record coverage levels and increased establish-ment benefi ts for canola,” SaskCanola Chair Joan Heath states. “This pro-gram will continue to be very important to the suc-cess of the canola indus-try and its producers.” “Saskatchewan oat pro-ducers are pleased to see the improvements to crop insurance including yield trending for oats,” Sas-katchewan Oat Develop-ment Commission Chair Dwayne Anderson says. “The outlook for wheat acres seeded this spring is promising,” Western Canadian Wheat Growers Saskatchewan Vice-Pres-ident Kenton Possberg adds. “We appreciate the increased coverage and enhancements to crop in-surance like yield trend-ing for wheat.” The deadline for cus-tomers to apply for, make changes to or cancel a Crop Insurance contract is March 31, 2013. De-tailed program and con-tract information is also available at any Crop Insurance offi ce, at www.saskcropinsurance.com or by calling 1-888-935-0000. Under Crop Insurance, premiums for most pro-grams are shared 40 per cent by participating pro-ducers, 36 per cent by the Government of Canada and 24 per cent by the Government of Saskatch-ewan. Administrative ex-penses are fully-funded by governments, 60 per cent by Canada and 40 per cent by Saskatch-ewan.

Riders could not have asked for a better day for the 36th Annual Snowarama event held Saturday in the city, with clear skies and lots of snow providing the perfect day for snowmo-biling. Those riders also helped the event become the most successful Snowarama in history, with 296 riders bringing in $140,263.95 to help children with disabili-ties. This year’s top fund-raisers were Kenn Propp, Bruce Peppler and Courtney Frank. Barry Bradshaw, chairman of Snowarama, says that this year’s

event was one of the greatest, with the trails, weather, and ample snowfall combining into a day that makes for a great ride all around. Bradshaw has been with Snowarama since the first ride, and he says that he participates for a simple reason, he just enjoys the event. He says it’s great to see where the money goes, and the ways it helps kids like Bailey Clark, this year’s Snowarama Ambassador, who see the benefits of the differ-ent programs that Easter Seals supports. While the ride had to be cancelled in 2012 due to a lack of snowfall, this year event conditions were ideal, explains

John Denysek, Regional Director of the Saskatchewan Abilities Council. “The sun is shining and the trails are in great shape. It’s perfect,” Denysek says. Money from Snowarama goes to three different causes. One is Camp Easter Seal, where children with disabilities get the opportunity to go to a fully wheelchair acces-sible camp. It also goes to adaptive technologies and the Saskatchewan Abilities Council’s Summer Fun Program. All of the different causes are directed towards making life bet-ter for children with dis-abilities.

With snow on the ground and winter weather in the air, it’s time to think about how to protect animals from the effects of cold weather. Maureen Harrison with Guardian Angels Pet Rescue says that it’s time to keep pets out of the elements and safe from harm. Harrison says that when the tempera-ture starts to dip, animals need to have shelter in order to stay warm and healthy. By this, she says she means either keep your pet inside a house or any other well insulated and warm place. “The biggest issue is an animal being left outside in the cold. That’s my big-gest fear when it turns cold... If they don’t have sufficient shelter – and I don’t mean a piece of wood put together, that’s not enough.” She says that it’s the feet that have

the biggest problems in cold weather. While the animal might have a fur coat, paws are unprotected and in the snow during cold weather, and anything beyond -20C has the potential to do some damage. “Imagine yourself in a pair of socks, how long are you going to last?” She says that when someone sees an animal which might be neglected they need to go through the proper channels. Harrison says she is not able to do much herself, but she has gone through the Saskatchewan SPCA out of Saskatoon to remove an animal from a home where it is being abused. Harrison believes that there also needs to be stricter bylaws protecting animals from the cold. She believes the current bylaw doesn’t require enough insulation and protection to keep an animal safe in the cold. The current bylaw only requires a roof, which isn’t nearly enough protection, especially in a Saskatchewan winter. She recommends bringing animals inside the house when the weather gets extreme, or at a mini-mum into a well insulated structure where the animal can effectively stay warm. Guardian Angels Pet Rescue cares for abandoned and neglected animals, keep-ing them with foster families until a permanent home can be found. “The more rescues there are, the bet-ter for the animals,” Harrison says. Anyone interested in getting involved in Guardian Angels organization should call (306)783-7771. The greatest need is for foster families for the animals. The family would keep the animal in their home and care for like it was their own pet. It requires filling out a form and an inspection of the home to ensure it’s safe. Harrison notes that medical expenses are covered by Guardian Angels, and the job of fosters is to care for the animal until it is permanently adopted. “We don’t hoard, we don’t try to over-do ourselves, but I do strive for more fosters so we can help more animals,” she concludes.

THE NEWS REVIEW

If we build it, they

will come...

I get that it’s Colorado and that a terrible trag-edy happened there not all that long ago. I also understand it’s impor-tant to educate our chil-dren about violence, bul-lying and the dangers associated with these types of things, but is it really logical to suspend a seven year old boy for what amounts to inno-cent childs play? Seven year old Alex Evans (from Colorado) was acting pretty much like any other boy his age does earlier this month. He was at school, on the play-ground and the game of the day was “Rescue the world.” Kids are imaginative and they also no doubt incorporate into their play a tad of what they see plastered all over the news everyday, not to mention in video games. But regardless, as a part of his imaginary game, little Alex tossed a non-existent grenade into a pit of evil (aka the sandbox) to save his friends from certain doom. Complete with sounds effects he was playing a role much like we did as kids when we played cops and robbers or a certain other game that comes to mind that’s now “politically incorrect” to name. Now maybe imitating the throwing of a grenade

isn’t the best idea for cre-ative play – I’ll give the school that, so let’s give little Alex a chat and maybe a warning if nec-essary. Or how about let’s suspend him? That’s what the school opted to do and as far as I’m con-cerned that’s just plain silly. We’re talking about a seven year old playing with his friends, there

was no hitting or hurting, just imaginary play. He’s seven and doesn’t even understand the meaning of the word ‘suspended.’ In fact, he was taped on TV so cutely saying, “I was trying to save people and I just can’t believe I got ‘dispend-ed’.” He doesn’t even know how to pronounce the word let alone understand its consequences. Violence can’t, and shouldn’t, be tolerated in our schools. We absolutely need rules and chil-dren need to learn the difference between right and wrong, as well as the consequences should they choose the wrong path, but in this instance, I think the school is carrying things way too far. This little guy is seven and what he was doing was nothing out of the norm. Games like that have been played since the beginning of time. Let’s at least make the punishment befitting of the crime.

The way I see it...

Wrestling has been dropped from the program in the 2020 Olympic Games. While I appreciate the desire to drop a sport and replace it with something modern, I do not agree with this decision. Wrestling is something that requires an athlete’s skill and physi-cal conditioning to do well. Admittedly, I didn’t watch wrestling, but if something needs to be dropped, it should be a different sport that I don’t watch. Let’s get rid of the equestrian events. This isn’t due to a hatred of horses, the animals are fine. I can even accept the argument that the events are enjoyable to watch and require great skill in order to have success. You not only need to ride a horse, but have your horse properly trained and able to respond to your commands. Your horse must be in tip-top physical condition if you want to have a medal. Notice how often I said “your horse” in that previous paragraph? The horse is the most important part in an equestrian event. While the human might need to know what they’re doing, if they don’t have a good horse underneath them they’re not going to accom-plish very much. If anything, the horses should be getting the medals for the event, because they’re doing most of the running and jumping, all of the hard work. So what’s the problem? While many Olympic events

require specialized equipment, it is supposed to be a measure of human achievement. Michael Phelps’ swimming trunks didn’t win him his millions of med-als, he did, by swimming really fast. If I was wearing his trunks, I wouldn’t challenge for a medal, and I’d probably be incredibly uncomfortable. While well designed equipment can give an athlete a competitive advantage, it can also be purchased by other athletes, and it’s easy to regulate equipment so everyone’s on a level playing field. But how do you regulate a horse? Mind you, I prob-ably wouldn’t win a medal on Charlotte Dujardin’s horse, mostly because I don’t know how horses work,

but it’s much more theoretically possible than any other event. Someone who has a baseline of horse knowledge could probably challenge for gold if they had her animal. A good horse is expensive, requires extensive training, lots of money for upkeep, and is much more an individual than, for example, an Olympic archer’s bow. A horse is an athlete in its own right, but the horse isn’t listed as the winner for any equestrian event. Of course, many people reading this don’t know who Charlotte Dujardin actually is. She’s the gold medal-ist in dressage at last year’s games. If you don’t know that, don’t feel bad, because not that many people actually do. It’s not a sport that’s particularly popu-lar, and while it’s possibly the only sport in the games that requires a full tux for competition it is curiously absent from most broadcasts. Wrestling, however, could be found on many screens if someone tuned in at the right time. People watch wrestling, it’s a sport which involves the people who are the best at grap-pling with each other. Equestrian events don’t really fit in the games, because nobody is willing to get rid of them. I don’t hate horses, I just think that the Olympics should be about the humans. If we need equestrian events, make a horse Olympics.

It’s a province that’s on an upward spiral and there’s been no better time to call Saskatchewan home. According to the latest Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) report, the highest number of housing starts since the 1970s were recorded in 2012. Urban and rural housing starts in the province totaled 9,968 units. The report also indicates that urban housing starts in Saskatchewan increased in 2012, up 39.9 per cent com-pared to 2011, putting Saskatchewan in first place among the provinces in terms of percentage change. If houses are coming up, that means people are moving in. “With the strength of our economy and a surge in our population, 2012 is going down as one of our strongest years for housing starts in decades,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd says. “With this pace of eco-nomic growth, Saskatchewan can expect to see an increased demand for housing and a buoyant construction sector creating jobs and continued prosperity. “An investment in new hous-ing is an important investment in the future of this province. This builds upon our prov-ince’s success and prosperity, while helping to improve our quality of life.” If we build it, they will come.

To the Editor:

Parliament has been back in session for just two weeks in this New Year, and already there’s a chorus of complaints about how the place operates – or fails to operate. Some people focus on the lack of decorum among MPs, espe-cially during the daily Question Period, and no doubt the tone during that intensely partisan 45-minutes should be im-proved. But based on personal experience in the House of Commons stretching back to 1974, I believe the bad behav-iour is a symptom of what’s wrong, not the cause of it. To fi x the malaise eroding our democracy, Canadians need a rich combination of party, electoral and Parlia-mentary reforms. Here are a few suggestions to contribute to a debate on this topic which I hope will become irre-sistible. First at the level of political parties, as suggested by Justin Trudeau and others in the Liberal leadership cam-paign, the Leader needs to exer-cise less control over who can be selected as candidates by local riding associations. As long as a constituency organization is “in good standing” as a viable enti-ty, and as long as the process of candidate selection is democrat-ic and fair, the Leader should not appoint candidates contrary to constituency wishes. Next, once in Parliament, MPs should be free to vote on most matters as their conscience and judgment dictate. They should not be “whipped” by the Leader’s offi ce to toe-the-line on virtually everything, as seems to be the case today. Questions of true “confi dence” – where losing a vote means the government falls and an election ensues – should be restricted to a few fundamen-tal situations pertaining to the Throne Speech and the Budget. Otherwise, MPs should think for themselves, make their own decisions and be accountable for them. Ministers wanting to ad-vance policy initiatives should be required to convince not only

Cabinet colleagues, but also backbenchers. They should not simply rely on the Whip to en-force support – they should earn it by merit. House of Commons control over public spending must be en-hanced. The government should be required to produce its budget before a certain deadline every year – maybe February 21st. De-

partmental spending Estimates should be based on the most recent fi gures contained in that budget, not year-old data. MPs should feel free to question and vote against individual spending items in the Estimates (like tax-paid government advertising, for example). And government borrowing plans should require specifi c approval by Parliament every year. The Parliamentary Budget Offi cer should be established as an independent Offi cer of Par-liament with the authority and resources such work requires. Restrictions are needed on the use of ancient but recently-abused Parliamentary tools such as Omnibus Bills, Closure Mo-tions to terminate debates, and Prorogation. They have their place, but should be confi ned to their original purpose and in-tent. Every Standing Committee of the House of Commons should be required to receive, debate and vote on every Motion in pub-lic, not in secret as is now too of-ten the case.

Elections Canada needs great-er capacity to supervise elections effectively, investigate crimes like telephone fraud and voter suppression, and prosecute of-fences in a timely manner, before another election rolls around. It also goes without saying that the process for re-drawing constituency boundaries must be reinforced as independent of

partisan infl uence. Re-cent Conservative chi-canery using robocalls to pervert the process is contemptible. Canadians need to have an adult conver-sation about voting systems that are bet-ter than our current “first-past-the-post” regime where the win-ner often gets a major-ity of seats with only a small minority of the votes cast. Some form of Propor-tional Representation is suggested by some, and that deserves careful examination. Another alternative is a Preferential Ballot, where voters indicate not only their fi rst choice, but also their second and third choic-

es too, and the counting keeps going until one candidate gets more than 50 per cent support. A common characteristic of many of these ideas is a power shift – less control in the hands of the Prime Minister and Party bosses, more control in the hands of ordinary Canadians and indi-vidual MPs. The result will be more in-dividual responsibility and ac-countability. The quality of local candidates will become vital – there will be little room for the so-called “door knobs” or “trained seals”. Voting will actu-ally matter. Democracy will be enhanced. These are just a few ideas to make the point that we’re not stuck without alternatives. Mediocrity is not inevitable. If Canadians really want a better system, it can be achieved. But it will take persistent hard work to get there!

To the Editor:

The Harper Government has been us-ing the phrase “Standing up for Farmers” when they make agricultural announce-ments. But I think “Sticking it to Farmers” is more realistic! A case in point is the fi ring of Adrian Measner CEO of the farmer-controlled Canadian Wheat Board in 2006. Although farmers paid for Mr. Measner’s salary the Conservatives fi red him because he did not tow the Harper line on destroying the single-desk of the Canadian Wheat Board. Not only did farmers have to pay for the severance of Mr. Measner but they also had to pay to search for a replacement and hire a new CEO at several times the annual sal-ary of Mr. Measner. All this because Mr. Measner understood the wishes of the majority of farmers, rath-er than be a lap dog for the Conservatives. So although the Conservatives directly cost farmers millions of dollars, they have not had the decency to return the farmers’ money they wasted because of their ideol-ogy. At one point they claimed they would return the money to the pool accounts. However that initiative vanished and the farmer-elected directors initiated a court action to recover that money on farmers’ behalf. Farmers need to ask the present CEO if he is still pursuing that court case or have the government appointed directors, his present masters, told him to abandon that case, be a good lap dog and wait for his next order from Minister Ritz?

Com-mittee on Feb. 5, a Conservative MP made a failed attempt to dis-credit me by quoting (out of context) a line from my 2009 outgo-ing speech as National Farmers Union (NFU) President. I can’t tell you how thrilling it is to think

that Conservative MPs are sitting up late at night reading old NFU documents. If they would read and understand more NFU papers, the Con-servative MPs wouldn’t be destroying Canada’s world-class Ag. re-search centers, or gut-ting AgriStability and biasing the program against low-cost pro-ducers, or confi scating the farmers’ Wheat

Board assets without compensation, or un-dermining the Canadi-an Grain Commission, or selling community pastures and placing gag orders on pasture managers, or killing the tree farm at Indian Head which has pro-vided trees for virtually every farm in the west and contributed to the management and pres-ervation of millions of acres of the last native

prairie grasslands in Canada, or touting cor-porate vertical integra-tion over hog farmers, or refusing a costing review of the railways, or cutting the farmer co-funded AgriInvest program by 33 per cent, or… and the list goes on.

To the Editor:

A few days ago, some newspa-pers in Saskatchewan displayed the following headline. “In future liquor stores will be private.” It follows that the profi ts from li-quor sales will also be private. Feb. 21, 2009, the Regina Leader Post reported the profi ts from liquor sales at that time

were 173 million dollars per year. With an increasing population, I expect profi ts could now be near 200 million dollars per year. What a missed opportunity. My guess would be Saskatch-ewan could go some distance down the road to eliminating those degrading food banks with the 200 million. Could it be Premier Wall would

rather see a few unionized liquor store employees lose their jobs (Unionized employees are a pet peeve for Premier Wall). It is not too late to do the right thing rather than stuffi ng those millions into the pockets of those that are doing well as it is.

Sask – it’s not too late to do the right thing

“To fi x the malaise eroding our democracy, Canadians need a rich combination of

party, electoral and Parliamentary reforms.

Here are a few suggestions to contribute to a debate on this topic which I hope will become irresistible... The

result will be more individual responsibility

and accountability.”

To the Editor: It is a clear blow to farmers and Cana-dian democracy that the Supreme Court decided not to hear the farmers’ appeal on whether the Conservative govern-ment had followed the law in abolishing the farmers’ single desk marketing sys-tem. The Supreme Court usually hears cas-es which are of national importance. But look at the amazing number of farmer-related issues the Supreme Court appar-ently thought were not important. • The farmers’ right to vote – enshrined in law was taken away. • Over $200 million of assets which farmers paid for were confi scated by the Conservatives without compensation. • The Minister defi ed a court decision but then hypocritically appealed that decision at the same time. • The question of whether or not the Minister of the day in fact had to follow the CWB Act. And fi nally what about the integrity of a Minister who promised a vote by farm-ers before any move would be made on the single desk while he was campaign-ing and then changed his mind after the federal election? Apparently none of these things are of national signifi cance. I would wonder what would happen if the Conservative government confi scated $200M of Cana-dian’s RRSPs? Would that be of nation-al importance and deserve a Supreme Court hearing?

Toy show attracts visitors from near and farBy DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The Yorkton Farm Toy Show and Sale has been running in Yorkton for 28 years, bringing the joy of toys to people young and old. Organizer Kim Mehling says that this year’s event, held over the weekend in the city, was successful, with a steady stream of attendees visiting the 42 different vendors. The event raised money for the Chase Kraynick Splash Park in Canora with the raffle of a pedal tractor as well as support from many of the differ-

ent vendors. Mehling says that the Kraynick family has always supported the show, and the cause made sense, both farm toys and the new splash park are designed to bring joy into the lives of kids. Attendees came from across the prairies, Mehling says, and she believes it’s the connec-tions people have to toys which bring everyone out to the show. “It’s the history. If your dad had that tractor or your grandfather farmed with this. People hold on to that so they like to find those toys that represent that.”

One of the people dis-playing at the show was Jordan Allison of Calgary, who brought a 1/64 scale highway scene, complete with a farm, trucking company and even a major accident on the highway. Allison says that mak-ing a scene out of these toys is a way to stretch his imagination. He says that the projects are inspired by the things he sees on the road, and “see-ing what’s out there.” Each eight foot section of a scene takes about two months to complete, Allison says. The base is made of foam, and he works up from there,

doing the landscaping and creating the environment and finally placing the different objects in the scene. His displays are filled with little Easter eggs, small details which might not be immediately appar-ent. Allison says that’s because when he was a kid looking at displays, the small details were what he enjoyed looking for the most, so he tries to give the same experience to the kids looking at the displays he creates. Toy collecting has always been part of Allison’s life, and he has made the creative side of the hobby a big part of his life. “My family has been in toy collecting since I was a baby, I’ve been building displays for at least 10 years,” he says. The display was not the only reason why Allison made the trip to Yorkton, he admits, since he also spent the weekend look-ing at the other toys on display and bought a “fair bit” to add to projects in the future.

BOOK LAUNCH – Kaare Askildt recently launched his new book The Heedless Norseman at Coles in Yorkton. The book is an autobiographical account of Askildt’s life, from his youth making trouble with his identical twin brother to today, presented with the same self-depricating humor of his regular series of Farmer in Training columns. Pictured above are Askildt and his wife Marion. The book is available at theheedlessnorseman.com.

AMONG THE DISPLAYS at this year’s Farm Toy Show was a 1/64 highway scene complete with a farm, trucking company and even a major highway accident. The cre-ative project was brought to the show by Jordan Allison (pictured above) from Calgary.

It might be a Yorkton church, but they’re helping out kids on the other side of the world. A group from the Prairie Harvest Christian Life Center will be travelling to Cambodia this March to visit the orphanage the church sponsors in the country. Renae Miller will be one of the people going to meet and help out the kids there. Twenty-two people are visiting the orphanage, includ-ing seven teenagers. For the majority of those travelling this will be their first trip into Cambodia, which Miller says is something people have been anticipating this trip for a long time. “I get so emotional, but these are our kids. We take care of them 100 per cent. Our orphanage is ours, we’ve looked after it for years, just to see the kids, their faces, play with them and help them,” Miller says. The plan for the trip is to continue to improve the orphanage, Miller says. Previous trips have seen new beds for the children, as well as installing solar power to replace an older battery system. They have also given bikes to all the children to allow them to get around the town easier. This trip has plans to do painting and build-ing a playground that the community can use. The orphanage itself is in a remote area, and Miller says that the church is helping because it’s something that they saw a need to do. “It’s going to be very remote. Our orphanage is border-ing Vietnam, and when we took it over it was one of the poorest orphanages this organization had. That’s kind of what caught our eye, they needed our help the most. “Because there are so many orphans there it’s such a major issue. They get left out on the streets, and kids in these countries are basically worthless. Nobody wants them, nobody wants to look after them, they are just more of a burden. This way, we can take them, we can educate them, we can take care of their communities, once they get old enough we put them into a skill so that when they’re 18 and out of school they can go into a city and get a job and not have to be a burden on society or anything like that.” Miller believes that this experience will be life-chang-ing for all of the people going on the trip, and will be a reminder of why they need to get involved. She knows that it has already has made a difference in the lives of the children there already, based on stories from her brother, who goes regularly. “He says it just blows their minds that someone from the other side of the world would take the time out to look after them, they just can’t believe we would do that,” Miller says. The price for the trip has been paid for out of their own pockets, Miller says, and all of the money they raise through fundraisers will be directed exclusively to the kids. They also plan on visiting other orphanages to do what they can to help out. There will be an event at the Prairie Harvest Christian Life Center on February 24 which will feature a lunch and a dessert auction. The group is also planning on doing other things to raise money for the trip, such as delivering phone books. The group leaves on March 22.

SUDOKU RULES The objective is to fi ll a 9×9 grid with digits so that each column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 sub-grids that compose the grid (also called “boxes,” “blocks,” “regions,” or “sub-squares”) contains all of the digits from 1 to 9. The puz-zle setter provides a partially completed grid, which typically has a unique solution. Completed puzzles are always a type of Latin square with an additional constraint on the contents of individual regions. For example, the same single digit may not appear twice in the same 9x9 playing board row or col-umn or in any of the nine 3x3 subregions of the 9x9 playing board. This week’s puzzle is very hard.

Each year thousands of Canadian students trade in their books and lecture halls for summer jobs to help gain work experience and money for the next school year. Canada Summer Jobs is a Government of Canada initiative that provides funding to help employers create summer job opportunities for students. It is designed to focus on local priorities while achieving tangible results for both students and their commu-nities. Starting in 2011, the Government of Canada per-manently increased the annual budget for Canada Summer Jobs by $10 million, bringing the total pro-gram budget to $107.5 million. The total budget is distributed across all 308 federal constituencies, including Yorkton-Melville. This year our government will help to create 36,000 jobs through the Canada Summer Jobs ini-tiative. Through an application process, not-for-profit employers are eligible for up to 100 per cent of the provincial or territorial minimum hourly wage and mandatory employment-related costs. Public-sector employers and small businesses with 50 or fewer employees are eligible for up to 50 per-cent of the provincial or territorial minimum hourly wage. Applications for employers are already being accepted, and will be accepted only until Feb. 28,

2013. Employers can apply online at the Service Canada website (servicecanada.gc.ca) or print an application from the website. Employers can also get an application by visiting any Service Canada Centre. Help in completing applications can be obtained through the Canada Summer Jobs Applicant Guide, available online, by calling 1-800-935-5555 or by visiting any Service Canada Centre. Completed applications may be submitted using one of the following methods:

• Online: Applications must be submitted by February 28, 2013, 23:59 Pacific Time. • In person: Applications must be received before the closing time of the local Service Canada Centre on February 28, 2013. • By mail: Applications must be postmarked on or before February 28, 2013. • By fax: Applications must be faxed to a Service Canada Centre by February 28, 2013, 23:59 local time.

Have you ever come across a recipe with an ingredient you didn’t recognize? What did you do then? With the inter-net virtually at our fin-gertips the answer is only a few clicks away. Did you then go on a wild goose chase or just passed on the recipe altogether and moved onto a different one? I guess it would depend on how obscure the ingredient was. One of my pet peeves is when I come across a recipe that doesn’t lend itself to the average home Chef. I understand the culinary landscape has changed over the last number of years and will continue to do so. I also understand the desire for Chefs writing these recipes to fill the niche in the market of people wanting to expand their culinary horizons. However, even more so, I believe that these recipes should be meant to inspire the average home Chef by providing descriptions or alternative ingredient suggestions. As a recipe writer myself, I want to make sure that my reci-pes are approachable by people of all levels of culinary skills. Before I continue, let me give you an example. I came across a recipe in a magazine recently for a side dish with one of the ingredients listed as “haricot vert”. Now because of my experi-ence as a Chef, and since I know a bit of French, I realize that these are green beans. When I first saw “haricot vert” listed as an ingredient years ago I thought “How pompous! Why don’t they just list these as Green Beans? Is it because it sounds fanci-er, more gourmet per-haps, by listing them as Haricot Vert?” But the answer is not that sim-ple: Haricot Vert are French Green Beans. They are longer and thinner than their North American counterpart that we are all familiar with.

I myself have never seen haricot vert at my local grocery store or even at specialty pro-duce markets where I live. I have seen howev-er, green beans that were very thin and long, but still labeled as green beans on the bin. Were these actually green beans or haricot vert in disguise due to inept personnel in the produce section? I don’t think the problem lies with the markets, but with the recipe creators. The one writing the recipe should include an explanation of any ingredient that may not be recognizable by the average person, and in this specific case also maybe suggest a substitution of North American green beans. Another view is the marketing aspect of reci-pes. A recipe may sound more gourmet if the title of the recipe is called “a Bisque” instead of a soup, “a Demiglaze” instead of a gravy, or even “Haricot Vert Almondine” instead of green beans with almonds. This doesn’t excuse however that the actual ingredient list or the instructions of the recipe can’t be easy to understand. What would be the harm in that? If anything, it would make the recipe more approachable and more people would make it, and if the recipe was any good they would then share it with others. Passing the culinary success of a Chef’s recipe onto others is never a bad thing… in fact one could say it was good marketing. I chose to focus on har-icot vert in this column because it is something

that can be easily sub-stituted for. Green beans are definitely not as obscure as other ingredi-ents I have seen such as: sweetbreads (animal glands), foie gras (duck or goose liver), or veal cheeks (self explanatory, but not of the gluteus maximus variety). Let’s get back to basics and just make recipes and food that tastes good. By this I don’t mean that we should all be subject to making meatloaf, chicken breasts, and macaroni & cheese the rest of our lives. I think we should all expand our culinary horizons and boundaries within our means as, to borrow an old cliché, variety is the spice of life. I think we, as Chefs and recipe creators, should have it in our visions to include people from all walks of culi-nary skills in the process of our recipe writing to make it easier for every-one to delve further into the culinary arts. Lastly, I feel compelled to mention that this is just my opinion, and opinions are like arm-pits – everybody has them. Now excuse me as I am off to make some “Macaroni au Fromage” for my children.

Did you overspend during the Holidays? MNP’s Top 5 Tips for getting out of debt

By: Ian Schofi eld, Trustee, MNP Knowing that you have to face your fi nances is a lot easier than actually doing it. But it is possible, and can make a big difference in your life. If the holidays got you in a fi nancial bind, ask yourself the following questions:

• Are you using credit to pay for normal household expenses like gas or groceries? • Are you paying only the minimum payment on your credit cards? • Is the amount you can afford to pay in your budget for debt lower than the cost of carrying that

debt?If you have answered yes to any of these questions, than getting out of debt on your own may not be a possibility. But there is a way out. It starts with following these 5 tips for dealing with debt.

1. Recognize the signs of fi nancial distress.The fi rst step in dealing with debt is to recognize the warning signs that you are struggling fi nancially: • constant phone calls at home or work from creditors: • continually going over your spending limit, spending more than your earned wages; • using credit cards as a necessity; • living from one payday to the next; • borrowing money from friends or relatives to make ends meet; • garnishment of wages for outstanding debts; • only paying the interest or service charges on monthly bills; • pressure from creditors or collection agencies; • utilities and services have been cut off due to unpaid or late payment of bills.2. Goal settingThe second step is to set goals that help you pay down debt: • have a large debt-free goal in mind, but break it into smaller goals that are easier and faster to

achieve; • use tracking tools to help you eliminate unnecessary spending, stay motivated and keep on track

– if you have a smart phone there are a number of apps that can help; • encourage yourself with a journal or pictures of what you want to do once you’re debt-free.3. Do your homeworkThere are many resources to assist you with managing your debt. Look into the options fi rst to see what’s right for your unique situation: • non-profi t credit counseling companies are available and may assist you if you’re having troubles

making a budget and sticking to it. Note: services may differ from province to province; • a government licensed Trustee can provide you with personalized advice on debt management

and help you determine which strategy is right for you including, if necessary, fi ling a consumer proposal or declaring bankruptcy;

• beware of services offering quick credit fi xes or instant debt removal as some of these are “too good to be true” and may end up costing you more in the long run.

4. Start taking action • set a budget and stay within it; • begin paying bills on time – paying bills late incurs additional interest charges and can affect your

credit rating; • eliminate impulse spending and evaluate “want to buy vs. need to buy” items. Put yourself on a

daily or weekly “allowance” if necessary; • start putting some funds aside for emergencies so you won’t be caught without cash when the

unexpected happens.5. Mini-rewardsTackling your debt can be tough! Once you’ve started to manage your debt, build in mini-rewards so you don’t feel like all you do is pay bills and never have any fun. Work mini-rewards in to your monthly budget such as going to a coffee shop once per week, or a dinner out once a month to give yourself a bit of a break from feeling debt fatigued. Summoning the strength to deal with your fi nances is diffi cult and easy to put off until tomorrow. Contacting a trusted advisor, like those at MNP, is easy to do—today.

Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This is the 29th of a series on get-ting settled in Hazel Dell.

Mother Nature doesn’t seem to be able to kick this winter thing into gear! The snow has started to melt, the frost is not in the ground yet, and the melting snow makes for mudville in the pad-dock area, and not that good in our yard either. Good thing we took the carpets out and replaced them with wood lami-nate. Much easier to clean up muddy paw prints! Our dog Lady loves the wood burning stove; she just curls up in front of it and enjoys all that heat. We were back in the bush cutting down dead trees. Walking through the bush I found this big tree with a trunk that was about a foot in diameter at the base. It was obviously a dead tree, as it was broken off at the top, and had a lot of dry branches on it that just snapped away at the touch. It was located not far from the back shed. Well, I had seen how Nels cut down those other trees, he cut a wedge on the side of the trunk and the tree fell down exactly in that direction. Just to be safe, I determined

in which direction I wanted the tree to fall, and asked Marion to make the wedge cut while I pushed on the back of the tree, just in case. Between Marion and I we got a small wedge cut, and then started cutting on the opposite side of the tree, a little higher up than the wedge and in a down-wards angle, just like Nels did. Somehow this didn’t quite work out as planned. It has occurred to me that planning is actually wishful thinking, as our plans seldom seem to work out! The tree was not cooperating. While doing the downward cut, the tree made it known to us that it actually wanted to fall in the opposite direc-tion, which was the direction the tree had been leaning before we started cutting it, and it would mean that our back shed would be demolished if it fell in that direction. We stopped what we were doing and tried assess-ing the situation while I steadied the tree. We decided to make anoth-er wedge 90 degrees to the old wedge, in hope that the tree might fall in that direction. We very carefully cut the wedge, but the tree did not show any signs of wanting to cooper-

ate. Well, I thought, nothing ventured, noth-ing gained! I grabbed the power saw and made a cut opposite to the new wedge. The tree started to fall towards the shed; I dropped the saw and gave it a mighty push! The tree missed the shed by about a foot, and landed on top of some old pallets that were instantly convert-ed to kindling wood! Whew! That was close! I decided that maybe I should find a book about Paul Bunyan and learn how tree felling is actually done! Although I don’t want to carve a new Grand Canyon! Back in the days in jolly old England, a Duke was hunting in the forest with his men-at arms as servants; and he came across a tree. Upon it a number of archery targets were painted and smack in the middle of each one of them was an arrow. “Who is this incredible archer?” asked the Duke, “I must find

him!” After continuing through the forest for a few miles, he came across a young lad car-rying a bow and arrows. Eventually the lad admitted that it was he who had shot the arrows plumb in the centre of all the targets. “You didn’t just walk up to the targets and hammer the arrows into the middle, did you?” asked the Duke accusingly. “No my Lord,” said the lad, “I shot them from a hun-dred paces. I swear it by all that I hold holy!” “That is truly astonish-ing,” said the Duke, “I hereby admit you to my service as an archer!” The lad thanked him profusely! “But I must ask you one thing in return,” said the Duke, “you must tell me how you came to be such an outstanding archer!” “Well,” said the lad, “first I fire the arrow at the tree, and then I paint the target around it!”

The Canadian Community Newspapers Association (CCNA) wants rural Canadians to make their views known by participating in an online research panel. Participants are rewarded for their time to complete online surveys and receive points which can be redeemed for various online rewards. As well, all panelists are entered for a sweepstakes draw every quarter for a new Samsung Galaxy Tab. Canada is made up of hundreds of small towns and communities that more than six million people call home. Community newspapers are the heart of these non-urban areas, providing an essential service and connecting read-ers with the information they need about what is happening in their neigh-bourhoods. Readership research con-firms that 83 percent of Saskatchewan adults are avid community newspaper readers. The strength of the industry is its local credibility and exclusive reach into hundreds of non-urban markets across the country. Because of Canada’s vast geography, it can be difficult for advertisers to find a cost-effective way to reach Canadians living outside of metropolitan centres. Many companies are turning to online research panels to learn more about

Canada’s smaller communities. While online panel research is growing in popularity, panel providers are often faced with a lack of representation in non-metropolitan markets – typical panel composition is 90 percent urban and 10 percent non-urban. The CCNA is responding to this chal-lenge with an innovative new project titled “Connecting to Canadians with Community Newspapers”. “By har-nessing the power of community news-papers and partnering with an estab-lished panel research company, the association’s goal is to increase the number of online panelists based out-side of urban areas,” says Kelly Levson, Director of Research for CCNA. Levson adds, rural readers have a chance to make their opinions heard so that marketing decisions are not solely influenced by people residing in urban markets. “Without the voice of people in smaller communities across Canada, marketers tend to defer to what they hear from urban residents.” For information on the rewards avail-able for your time, go to www.webper-spectives.ca. Readers will notice adver-tisements in their community newspa-per from now until the end of March recruiting online panelists. To sign up online go to www.myvop.net/speakup.

YORKTON HARVEST players celebrate a goal during their Sunday afternoon clash with the Regina Pat Canadians. Five out of sixpoints during their final homestand has the Harvest in sixth place as of February 13 with four games remaining.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

With the regular season counting down its fi nal days, the Harvest saw its last homestand of the 2012/13 sea-son with three games on the week to close out its home schedule before play-ing their fi nal four games on the road. With a tight race for the fi fth place spot heating up between the Harvest, the Saskatoon Blazers, the Tisdale Trojans and Battlefords, points were of necessity as the Yorkton club will be looking forward to diffi cult road dates for the remainder of their schedule. First up was a midweek night battle with the Tisdale Trojans, who were sitting in fi fth place going into the meeting at the FAA giving the game a playoff atmosphere as both teams knew the importance of getting the two points. A shorthanded Trojans goal six minutes in by Drew Litwin gave Tisdale the fi rst blood, but Eric Meyer scored on the same Trojans penalty to erase the shorthanded goal the Harvest allowed to tie things up. Both teams traded goals again as Jor-dan Ross put one in for the Trojans and Donovon Lumb scored in the fi nal minutes of the fi rst to send the teams to the dressing room tied 2-2. In the second Lynnden Pastachak’s 24th of the year on the powerplay gave the Harvest a 3-2 lead, but Cole McBride played spoiler with 4:50 left in the second tying it up despite the Harvest being ahead 28-21 in shots. In the third period the Harvest took over, dominating the game in every facet from the minute Ethan Bear scored from the point on the power-play, scoring three more goals in the period and outshooting the Trojans 22-7 in the fi nal frame. Seven differ-ent players from the Harvest scored in the 7-3 win, something head coach Jeff Odgers attributed to being up for the game. “Our guys were ready to go and in the third period we really stepped

our game up and took over and credit to our guys for having a strong third period.” Saturday night saw the cellar dwell-ing Notre Dame Hounds come into town attempting to play the role of spoiler as the Harvest looked to sepa-rate themselves from the pack and get a cushion for the fi fth place spot with a win. Captain Nicolas Pouliot got the Harvest on the board fi rst, but three straight Notre Dame goals had the Hounds up 3-1 nearly midway through the second period with a chance to steal a needed two points away from Yorkton. A let down was not in the cards how-

ever as six unanswered Harvest goals, guided by Pouliot’s three point night and Chase McKersie’s two goals lifted them to the 7-3 win. A milestone on the season was also reached as Lynnden Pastachak reached 25 goals on the season, an impressive number for the Red Deer Rebels prospect who seems to have a promising career ahead of him as a goalscorer. Yorkton’s Matt Kustra did not start in goal for the Hounds as he is set to play for the WHL’s Prince George Cougars over the February break. Cont. on Page 16

With the SHSAA win-ter sports schedule winding down, Yorkton and area high schools took to the sheets on February 8/9 to compete in the East Central District Curling Champ-ionships. Yorkton Regional and Sacred Heart joined the rest of the areas high schools with the reward of advancing to Provincial Regionals on the line. Two teams in each divi-sion advanced to the regionals, giving teams two opportunities to qualify for the following weekends tournament in Estevan. Yorkton will send four teams to Estevan next weekend as the YRHS

swept the mixed compe-tition and Sacred earned “B” qualifiers in boys/girls to advance to Estevan, while Ezterhazy took the gold in bot boys and ladies play to snatch up the “A” qualifying spots and advance. In mixed the YRHS teams led by skips Kassandra Kormos and Ryan Nagy gave the Raiders their two repre-sentatives at the region-als with steady play on the weekend, earning their way to extending their season. While Sacred required a must win “B” qualifier on Saturday in both ladies and boys play to make it to Estevan. Skips Brenden Griffen for the boys and Kaylee Ford for the girls showed

great leadership in guiding their squads through a must win sit-uation to see themselves through, but will need even more leadership as the level of competition will get even stingier in Estevan as the best of the region come out to compete for a spot in the 2013 Curling Provincials. Raiders coach Lana Stanek Sebastien com-mented that the ECDAA had a very strong group of curlers come out and play and that “Many games came down to the last rock, which is always exciting to watch. The qualfying schools will head to Estevan this weekend with their eyes set on qualifying for provincials.

YRHS AND SACRED HEART competed in the 2013 ECDAA District Curling Championships this weekend at the Yorkton Curling Club. The YRHS sent two teams to Regionals in mixed while Sacred Heart sent to “B” qualifiers to Estevan in the Boys and Ladies categories.

Harvest fall to Pats at home Cont. from Page 15

With four out of a pos-sible six points on the week already accounted for, the Harvest looked to finally take down a famil-iar foe as the Pat Canadians came to end their regular season series in Yorkton. With every game so far going to the end with the Canadians pulling out a late goal or a lucky bounce to deny the Harvest the win, this game was expected to be tightly contested and entertain-ing and it did not disap-point. Dakota Odgers and Chase McKersie both got on the board for the Harvest in the first peri-od as they took a 2-1 lead at the intermission. Zachary Zborosky got the Canadians goal on the powerplay as Spencer Bombior was solid in goal for the Harvest in the first period. A 2-1 lead going into the second gave the Harvest some confidence, but the Canadians stole all the momentum with three unanswered goals sparked by Mitch Lipon’s marker six minutes into the period. The three goals gave the Canadians a 4-2 lead and flipped the script entirely as the high spirits the Harvest car-ried over from the previ-ous two games had to be all but depleted after allowing three goals in five minutes. Turner Ottenbreit scored a cru-cial goal just before inter-

mission to make it 4-3 and made the deficit a more than manageable one goal in the third. Chase McKersie con-tinued his strong play to tie it up on the powerplay off an Ethan Bear assist with 17:03 left in the third making it 4-4 with plenty of hockey left to be played. Emery Anderson gave the Canadians the lead back with 11:54 left to play and the streak of overtime games between the Canadians and Harvest seemed to be at risk yet again as in a plot twist the Canadians, and not the Harvest led in the final ten minutes of the third. Corwin Stevely played hero for the Harvest, tying the game up on a hard working goal in front of the net and con-tinuing the overtime streak. In the overtime frame Troy Murray, brother of Terrier Nathan scored the winner for the Pat Canadians with just :53 seconds left, giving the Canadians the extra point and forcing the Harvest to settle with just a single and ending an unbeaten streak that stretched over a month dating back to the begin-ning of January when they lost to the Moose Jaw Generals. Coach Odgers was pleased with how his team fared in their final homestand saying, “Obviously you want to win that game we just played, but we took five out of six points in three

games and went out and made a statement against a Tisdale team we are battling with in the stand-ings right now and it was a good week for us.” Odgers also credited his team for working hard to come back in the third period saying, “We played last night and the Canadians didn’t so the fact that we came back in the third makes me real proud of my guys because they worked hard and they kept their legs mov-ing when they could have quit after going down 4-2.” Road life will now be the mantra of the Harvest as they spend their next two weekends on the bus as they go to Saskatoon to play the Contacts and Prince Albert to face the Mintos this weekend in two tough road games against teams that are expecting to be SMAAAHL title contenders. “We are going to need to work hard and win the battles in the rest of our games if we are going to finish where we want to, and it is going to be great prepa-ration for winning on the road in the playoffs play-ing these next two weeks on the road to close out the season” said Odgers who looked at the sched-uling from a positive angle. Two weeks will see out the end of the regular season with the Harvest in sixth place going into the weekend, four games will determine if they stay.

With the Lady Saints having the Raiders number as of late a Saturday afternoon clash at the YRHS’ four team round robin tour-nament had a little extra intensity as the Gladstone Battle fea-tured a Lady Raiders team hungry for a win over the in-city rivals. With both teams mak-ing quick work of the other two teams in the tournament in Norquay and Fort Qu’Appelle, this game was to be the highlight of the week-end and the Raiders were ready from the get go. The Saints beat Fort Qu’Appelle 65-26 and Norquay 56-37 heading into Saturday afternoon’s game while the Raiders beat Norquay 52-35 and scored a lopsided win

over Fort Qu’Appelle in which they held them to just five points. An intense atmo-sphere was at the gym from the opening tip as you could get the sense that both teams wanted the win over their rivals, with the Raiders really working hard on defense trying to impose their will on the Saints with a team effort. Employing a half court trap and crashing the boards, the Raiders jumped out to an early lead and never looked back, eventually hold-ing on to a 58-45 win in a game that was never in doubt for the majori-ty of the second half as the motivated Raiders played a sound defen-sive game and willed themselves to a win over the Saints after a loss just the week before. Saints player Shayla

Merriam said the game was “The highlight of the weekend and both teams played really hard in what was a great game, even though we lost” and thanked the refs and parents and fans for coming out and sup-porting the game. The Lady Saints coaching staff after the game stated “We just got our-selves in a hole early and it was too much to climb out of at the end” Raiders head coach Tony Hayden men-tioned the key to the Raiders win came on the defensive end of the floor. “We decided to employ a halfcourt trap to really work the Saints guards and cre-ate turnovers as well as take time off the shot-clock and it really worked out well for us in getting an early lead and than holding onto

it by getting stops throughout the game.” Hayden said the win was satisfying with the Raiders losing just the week before at the MCS tournament to Melville and thought the biggest

turnaround was momentum from get-ting the stops they needed and the turn-overs they created in the halfcourt where the Raiders had the distinct advantage.

Both teams will be sure to see each other before the end of the year and if their last two meetings tell any-thing, it will truly be another Gladstone Battle.

Lady Raiders get revenge over Lady Saints at home

SAINTS SHAYLA MERRIAM and Eddie Schramm of the Raiders track each other down in a Saturday afternoon Gladstone Battle at the YRHS in a 58-45 Raiders win.Sr. Raiders take bronze in P.A.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

After a disappointing loss to Prince Albert St. Mary’s in the semifinal at the York City Classic the Raiders traveled the five hour journey to Prince Albert with eyes set on revenge at St. Mary’s home tournament. With the long van ride north to Prince Albert, the Raiders would have to fight dead legs as they tipped off against North Battleford in their opening round matchup on Friday night. The Raiders clawed their way to a win against North Battleford that despite Ben Redl’s 29 points, should have in all reality been a wee bit easier given the Vikings rebuilding efforts during what has been a down year for last year’s provin-cial champs. With dead legs the Raiders came out flat and allowed the Vikings, something they could not afford as they went up against Swift

Current in the semifinals. In the semifinal the travel strains continued to show for the Raiders as they could not get their offense going, and lost their rematch with the Colts despite allowing Swift Current to 58 points. Coach Jason Payne attributed the Raiders slow offense to some tired legs, but didn’t use it as an excuse saying, “When you hold a team to 58 points, you should win most of those games but we played like a team that drove five hours for most of the weekend and combined with shooting being one of our weaknesses this year it ended up costing us.” Another solid defensive performance against Swift Current should give the Raiders a boost going over, but found out that they will need the energy they showed in their home tournament win over Swift Current if they are going to get the points needed to compliment their defensive per-formances. The loss brought the Raiders into a third place

game for the second straight weekend, this time against Moose Jaw Vanier. With Vanier missing some personnel at the forward position the Raiders took advantage, dominating the offensive glass with 32 offensive rebounds, amounting to roughly 65% of the Raiders misses from the field accord-ing to Payne. The team rebounding hustle on the glass from the YRHS paid dividends as they scored a 68-56 victory and their second bronze fin-ish in February. Next up for the Raiders is a pre-February break trip to Swift Current where they will play Mount Royal in the first round. A win over Mount Royal will set up a likely semifinal game with Moose Jaw Central, which would be the first clash between the two teams since last year’s Hoopla semifinal and would give the Raiders a good test of their Hoopla qualifications this year with a chance to prove that they can hang with the top ranked Cyclones.

Boost your Business without Cutting your PricesSmart business people know that your options to stand out from the competition are limited… Cut prices? Not very profitable. Improve product quality? Certainly, but that can take substantial time and money. The fastest, most cost-effective way to differentiate yourself is to focus on your service. Customer service can no longer be merely average or simply friendly; it needs to be remark-able. Here’s your opportunity to make that happen for your team…

Attend Jeff Mowatt’s half day seminar,“The Art of Customer Service… Influence with Ease”

Jeff believes that today’s customers no longer value you as an information provider. For information,

customers can search Google in less than a second and it’s free. Free is worthless. Fortunately however,

there are 3 core elements that customers do want from you–better yet to receive them, they are willing to

pay a premium. You’ll discover how to apply these 3 elements so you’re perceived less as an information

provider or order-taker, and more as a Trusted Advisor. Plus much more.

Yorkton Mar 11th News Review Readers

Painted Hand Casino"YNR Reader"

The title says it all re-ally. A letter to the edi-tor published last week in Weyburn This Week revealed racist jeers di-rected by one fan at the Weyburn rink directed to members of the Flin Flon Bombers bench on the night of January, 26. Ken Chartrand, the writer of the letter, was taking his mom and dad to see his son and their grandson play in the SJHL for the fi rst time, a special family moment regardless of the level or sport, when they encountered an unruly Red Wings fan who fi t the bill. We all know the type, angry, likely inebri-ated, enjoys getting on “his team” and defi -nitely enjoys getting on the other team with whatever insults he can throw. However, this fan crossed the line from unruly and passion-ate, to complete unac-ceptable. The Flin Flon Bombers have a trainer of Indian descent. This is where it gets ugly. According to Chartrand the fan in question di-rected several verbal attacks on the trainer saying, ““Hey Abdul, where is your turban.” When he walked by another time, he called him a “baboon” and a “f#!%ing baboon. Clas-sic anti-muslim hate, something everyone has probably heard from similar people behind closed doors. Unaccept-able, but it gets worse. Flin Flon has a goalie named Devin Buffalo,

a rather solid goal-tender who has never so much as done any-thing controversial in his road games to Yorkton’s rink and has never been the sub-ject to taunts of any kind at the FAA. But of course, being First Nations, he was of no exception to the gong-show that was unfold-ing at Weyburn’s rink that night. “Hey Buffalo, why don’t you go back to your reserve and go back to your teepee. Did you bring your tee-pee, go home you na-tive bastard” were the quotes that Chartrand included in his letter. Common refrains in our society where racial tensions are sadly a divisive issue, but just as unacceptable as the racist garbage directed at the trainer. The letter goes on to mention that several fans were apathetic to his behavior, saying the common excuses of “He has always been like that” for “Forty years” and the man even sold raffl e tickets during the intermission. Weyburn Red Wings vice presi-dent Dave Ferris issued a statement saying the fan has been banned from Red Wings games for the remainder of the season and apologies have been issued. The Red Wings have also stated that they will be working with Weyburn City Police to train se-curity staffers (who were very disinterest-

ed in doing anything that night according to Chartrand) in how to deal with situations like this one. But is that really enough? Did the trainer and Buffalo need to hear hurtful comments that made them feel unwelcome in the country they live in? A country that many falsely think is welcom-ing to all cultures. I see racist comments every day, in comment threads, on twitter, on any variety of facebook status involving Idle No

More last month, every-one turns a blind eye to the fact that we still live in an age where the color of your skin or outward appearance of culture is still a tar-get for negativity. From monkey noises directed towards black soccer players in Europe, to comments like these made at rinks not far from home, it has been a problem well before me, and it will sadly be a problem after me it seems. Sure everyone will tell you that racism

is bad, but telling you it is bad, and stepping into the face of a man making racist com-ments and telling him it is not okay is another thing entirely. As a society, we need to step up and let peo-ple like this know that this type of behavior is no longer welcome, it is a diffi cult task to change an entire cul-ture and I will admit I am as part of the prob-lem as the next person, but our apathy towards comments like the ones made in Weyburn needs to stop. This isn’t trying to get rid of passionate fans and those who want to be vocal dur-ing the game, SJHL tickets cost money, and fans should be allowed to enjoy the experience how they want. I am even okay with the foul language, I am a grown man and can easily tol-erate such things, but once you start making

people feel hurt for the color of their skin, the religion they choose, you are violating the Charter of Rights and Freedoms our country so proudly constituted, and that is where the line needs to be drawn fi nally. This old man hope-fully learned that it is not okay to say what he said fi nally, and will miss his beloved Red Wings games for the rest of the season, si-lenced and excluded for his appalling behavior. A punishment that fi ts the crime, but one that will be wasted if noth-ing changes. The status quo of turning a blind eye when someone makes racist, or even homophobic comments needs to be changed. We pride ourselves of being a melting pot of a nation, a nation of im-migrants in case you haven’t forgotten, it is time we start acting like it.

It’s not often that we take the time to thank those people that keep us safe from harmbut in this edition of YBID News we thought it was good timing to do just that.

Usually when we think safety we think of the Fire Department or the RCMP and even the BylawOffi cers, but sorry, not this time.

Today we focus on those men and women who have taken on the biggest challenge of the winter. That’s the folks who move the snow from and off our streets.

Sure it’s easy to complain about how come they did that street and not this street, or how come they fi lled in my driveway and not his, or why did it take so long to get to my street?

The reality folks is the city only has so many people and so much equipment and almost everything is on apriority list. You may have noticed a few private fi rms hauling city snow too.

A lot of why the streets don’t get a good enough cleaning is the fact that we the people park our vehicles on them and the plow can’t get through.

YBID has noticed the addition of temporary signs that announce NO PARKING SNOW REMOVAL, now that’s a step in the right direction. Telling people in advance that the snow will be moved may keep some of us from

parking in the way of the plow.

The city has received a huge amount of snowfall this winter and we believe there will be more coming. We are sure the city snow removal budget will shatter a few records but in the end it is worth it.

So from the Members of the YBID and our families in our homes who drive everyday on our residential and commercial streets…….WAY TO GO CITY CREWS, YOU ARE APPRECIATED AND WE THANK YOU FOR

WHAT YOU DO!
