The Government of Saskatchewan is currently developing a needed disabili-ty strategy. Part of that process involves touring the province, meeting with interested stakeholders to discuss the plan and shape the policies going into the future. Mark Docherty, legislative secretary for disabilities, recently made a Yorkton stop. He says the government is looking for solutions, so the goal of the consultation pro-cess is to find out what con-

cerns of people actually are and how they can be addressed. “It’s one of the most impor-tant strategies we’re going to undertake, because the dis-abled community is a very vulnerable sector and hasn’t had a strong voice. This is an opportunity, one of many, for people with disabilities to come forward and have their voices heard.” The process after will involve looking at the all the information, including public consultations and online sub-missions, Docherty explains. The consultations are key, because citizens need to be

involved in order to make an effective strategy that meets their needs. Ian Wilkinson, part of the citizen consultation team,

says that they designed the process to connect and com-ment on the different priority areas. Those priorities are accessibility and availability of housing, education, employ-ment, transportation, support for caregivers and community inclusion. Wilkinson says that the priority areas were chosen based on what they believed was key for people with disabilities, though they also want to hear what the public’s priorities are. Wilkinson says that hearing from as many people possible is the way to get a quality, made-in-Saskatchewan solu-tion.

“It’s very collaborative and good for all of us,” Wilkinson says. The consultations in Yorkton are the second so far, after the first consultation in Swift Current. Docherty says that the process was thought provoking, and people came with a clear direction of what they wanted to say. “People came prepared and with a good idea of what they wanted to say and how to make their voices heard.” The final strategy will come together in 2015, and the rec-ommendations will be put together before the end of the year.

Quick fact:The Citizen Consult Team (CCT) is a 15-

member team made up of individuals with

disabilities, caregivers, service providers and volunteers appointed

by the Minister of Social Services.

Provincial disability strategy unfolding

Trip of a lifetime


This year will mark the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings, the perfect opportunity for a group of students from Sacred Heart High School to tour Europe to learn about Canada’s military history and bet-ter connect with the past. Students Erica Baker and Shelby Novak both went on the trip, and spoke to The News Review about their expe-rience. The trip began in Amsterdam with the Anne Frank House and the Jewish Historic Museum. From there they went to Belgium, visiting cemeteries and the Flanders Field muse-um in Ieper, before mov-ing on to Passchendaele and Vimy Ridge, and visiting Bény-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery. The trip then continued to Juno Beach and Omaha Beach, before wrapping up in Paris. Forty students went on the trip, selected based on an essay writ-ten about why they should go, explains Novak, with students fundraising in order to go. Continued on Page 6.

RUN WITH US – The Yorkton Co-op is taking the lead with the Health Foundation’s Charity Road Race, becoming the title sponsor for the event. The Co-op is contribut-ing $5,000 to the event, as well as the snacks and water that runners need to recover from the long run. Pictured above are Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation and Bruce Thurston, Manager of the Yorkton Co-op. Thurston says that the event is a great fit for the Co-op and they are proud to support it year after year.

On March 18, 2014, Prime Minister Harper welcomed home the final contingent of Canadian Armed Forces members from our mission in Afghanistan. On May 9, Canada will mark a National Day of Honour to recognize all those who participated in the 12-year mission. More than 40,000 brave men and women of the Canadian Armed Forces, along with hun-dreds of courageous Canadian civilians and international allies, worked to defeat terror-ism and give Afghans a chance at a better future. They destroyed terrorist sanctuaries and built up Afghan security forces to defend their country against them. Those steps forward came at great cost to Canada. Precious lives were lost in Afghanistan, including civilians, one diplomat, and 158 mili-tary personnel. They died to make Afghanistan, and our world, a safer place. Today, because of our troops, numerous schools stand where ignorance once ruled, making possible the enrolment of 7 million children, a full third of them girls. Women now engage in business – an unprecedented social development. And criti-cal infrastructure has been built up enabling business and develop-ment. I have a particular

interest in Afghanistan. In the last Parliament, I chaired the Special Committee on the Canadian Mission in Afghanistan. It was our job to review how our involvement enhanced the Afghan National Security Forces. We also kept abreast of the roles and projects of our Canadian troops – proj-ects like the rehabilita-tion of the massive Dahla Dam, so that local farmers can irrigate and diversify their crops. On March 12, 2014, a flag lowering ceremony was held in Kabul, as our military marked the conclusion of its mission there. Since then, Prime Minster Harper has declared May 9, 2014, a “National Day of Honour” by Royal Proclamation, in the hope that all Canadians will recognize and com-memorate the tremen-dous efforts made in Afghanistan. The day commemo-rates the service and sacrifice of all members of the Canadian Armed Forces and employees of the Public Service of Canada who served in

Afghanistan. But it also provides an important opportunity to thank family members, friends and Canadians for their tremendous support. Finally, the day recog-nizes the sacrifices made by the families of the fallen. “The Canadians who served in Afghanistan,” said our Prime Minister, “demonstrated time and again the strength, spir-it, ingenuity and deter-mination that define our nation. Our troops left Afghanistan a more sta-ble, secure and self-sus-taining country.” The May 9 ceremony on Parliament Hill will pay tribute to the fallen, the sacrifices of the wounded, and the spe-cial burden borne by their families. Canadians will be invit-ed to honour the legacy of these heroes with a national moment of silence. Along with Prime Minister Harper, I join Canadians in commem-orating the determina-tion, courage and accom-plishments of all our troops who served in Afghanistan.

Brayden Ottenbreit’s Close Cuts for Cancer is now entering its 17th year, and for the month of May it’s bringing people together to raise money and awareness for cancer in Yorkton. The launch event was held at Mr. Mikes with a barbecue, with all money raised outside of participant pledges going to local initia-tives. That money goes to fund the Palliative Care Program, Chemo Outreach Program, and one night stays at Regina Cancer Lodge for people from the area. Ottenbreit says they are also partner-ing with Ronald McDonald House in Saskatoon to fund stays for local people there. Leone Ottenbreit, co-founder, says that this year has seen many new events and spon-sors come on board for the event, and the month of May will see numerous events, cul-minating in the head shave on May 31. One new event is the Speedghetti champion-ship, held at Boston Pizza. Ottenbreit says they still need 20 hun-gry people to raise $200 and take part in the challenge on May 26. Each participant gets a serving of spaghetti

with a hot sauce, Ottenbreit explains, and the winner becomes the Speedghetti cham-pion for the year. Speed and top money raised both get prizes for their efforts. “No one will leave empty-handed or clean-faced,” Ottenbreit says. Money raised from the Speedghetti event will go to the local can-cer initiatives program, and be used for the Palliative Care Program at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre via the Health Foundation. While more events and people getting on board is a good thing, Ottenbreit says it also shows how cancer remains a disease that affects everyone, whether it’s someone who has it or someone they love. The goal of the event is to make cancer some-thing people no longer have to be afraid of, whether that means a cure or a way to man-age it in people’s lives. “For us it will always be about Brayden, but unfortunately cancer continues to touch the lives of so many people. So people who are com-ing forward now don’t necessarily know Brayden, but they have someone they love that has been affected by the disease.” Ottenbreit says that

people don’t have to get their heads shaved to get involved. The event always needs plenty of volunteers, for example, especially on event day to take photos, help with registration and setup. The goal every year is to raise a bit more, and Ottenbreit says that they don’t have specific numbers in mind, instead focusing on con-tinuing to move forward with the event. “We stopped setting a dollar goal and a par-ticipant goal a few years ago because we decided we never wanted to be disappointed in this event. Whether we have one person or a hun-dred people, it’s still more than we would have raised if we weren’t doing it at all. We want to celebrate, create awareness, cre-ate support, offer hope to people faced with this disease and I think we do that every year.” To get involved, con-tact Ottenbreit at 306-783-2637 or 306-621-5295, email [email protected] or visit face-book.com/closecuts.

Hats off to Sask. Habitat!

There has been noth-ing but embarrassment and negative press for the City of Toronto for the past year. Their mayor smokes crack, gets falling down drunk in public and makes no apologies about it. There are telling videos surfac-ing that show him “in all his glory” – more turning up everyday. Some just this week even. There are new allegations of racial slurs and bigotry. I was a little surprised to learn there is even a website dedicated to seeing him ousted from public service. That is it as far as I’m concerned, it’s HIGH TIME Rob Ford makes his final exit and let his city’s residents move for-ward. Once again last week Toronto’s infamous mayor made the headlines as he departed from his home enroute to a waiting vehicle which was set to take him to rehab. Amen. FINALLY he is admitting he has a problem and that he needs help. He’s also taken a leave of absence from his job and let the deputy mayor step up to the plate. Honestly, he should have done this months ago. The city should have insisted on it. There are people camped out on a permanent and daily basis in front of the mayors office cam-

paigning for Ford’s dis-missal. They’ve gone so far as to set up a website called robfordmustgo.com I don’t care what the city protocol is, or to what lengths they have to go to get rid of him, but Rob Ford has had his 15 min-utes of fame at the expense of taxpayers and now it’s time for him to fade off into the sunset.

He admittedly has huge problems and it’s time he deals with them. This man is not capable of run-ning a city as important and grand as Toronto. If he truly is passionate about his political career and doing what’s best for his city’s residents he will step down, get his life in order and then, if all goes in his favour, try to reapply himself. He must have been on the right track at one point in life but obviously money and power took him to places that are anything but positive. “He has besmirched the name of the city global-ly,” says one Toronto councillor. “It’s time to leave, it’s time to move on Mayor Ford.” Yes it is. Good luck Toronto with putting back the pieces and moving forward. Admitting there is a problem and taking measures to create needed change is the first step.

The way I see it...

To the surprise of many, the Dodge Grand Caravan is going away in a couple years. The announcement was made this week, as Chrysler is planning to make Dodge a performance brand, which means that Dodge is going to lose products that are decidedly not perfor-mance focused. This means, of course, no more mini-vans, since those are made largely to carry around children. It also means the end of the Avenger sedan, which in spite of an aggressive name was still a sen-sible family car. The announcement did send some analysts into a frenzy of paranoia, as they declared there would be job losses in Windsor, where the minivans are made, since there would be fewer nameplates on the line, and the Caravan was a popular one. This paranoia is unfound-ed, because it ignores what is actually happening at Chrysler, which is a rebranding above all else. If you want a minivan from your local Chrysler dealer – and you might, as they are traditionally rather good at making them – after 2016 it will have a Chrysler badge. For Chrysler, it means that they only have to produce one variation of the product, which reduces costs and redundancy. For consumers, it just means different badges, as it is unlikely that the company will remove profitable packages that sell rather well. It’s actually a very common tactic taken throughout

the industry. The fewer variations there are on a prod-uct, the fewer parts a company has to make, which means lower costs. It also means that a company is not competing with itself for sales, all product moved in any particular category will be counted together. It means less money for Dodge, of course, but more money for Chrysler. Of course, they are also cutting a brand that is instantly recognizable, since everyone knows what a Caravan is and represents. It’s also a model that sells very well, especially in Canada, and is generally asso-ciated quite strongly with the minivan category. Chrysler-Dodge dealers will naturally have to get con-

sumers comfortable with the change in branding when they come in looking for a vehicle to cart around their children. Since the majority of Chrysler dealers sell both anyway, that should not be a huge issue, and while I suspect there will be people who become con-cerned like the unnamed analyst earlier, it will not take long before people are familiar with the product line. I’ll admit that I thought it would make more sense to pitch Dodge as the mainstream brand rather than Chrysler, but I’m going by tradition rather than what the company is actually trying to do. Just driving by a Dodge dealer one can basically see that they’re trying to pitch Dodge models as aggressive cars for cool peo-ple, and as useful as a minivan might be it does not quite fit within the same model line as the much more aggressive looking models Dodge is actually trying to sell. It does, however, fit quite nicely beside much more sensible models that get Chrysler badges, so I under-stand completely what they’re trying to do. The mis-sion right now, from the dealer level to right to the top, is ensure that consumers themselves understand what they’re trying to do. Some reactions make it clear that it will be an adjustment, but in the long run, it actu-ally does make sense when it comes to building a pair of brands.

There are many happy families, both in Yorkton and elsewhere in the province thanks to the selfless-ness and dedication of countless volunteers and donations. That is something worth celebrat-ing – thus the reason for communi-ties across Saskatchewan gathered to recognize and celebrate the work of Habitat for Humanity and their many partner families. May 2 was officially declared Habitat Day in the province. “We’ve been happy to partner and support 97 Habitat home builds across the province since 2009,” says Social Services Minister and Minister responsible for Saskatchewan Housing Corporation June Draude. “We do it because we know a home is that wonderful foundation for everything else. When a family has a decent place to live, they can focus on making their lives, their chil-dren’s education and their family’s future more successful. “It’s the foundation of our prov-ince’s Plan for Growth – to create a province that is welcoming and sup-portive. Working with Habitat and their partners across the province, we are building a better, stronger Saskatchewan.” To date funding and efforts have supported builds in 10 communities across the province including Regina, Prince Albert, Lloydminster, Saskatoon, Nipawin, Yorkton, Moose Jaw, Humboldt, Duck Lake and Fort Qu’Appelle. And where would these families be without this helping hand? Hats off to all who are involved! May we celebrate many more builds to come in Saskatchewan.

To the Editor:

“Buy local” has become an in-creasingly popular mantra in North America. It is often both a social statement and a matter of preference for goods that happen to be locally produced. This has often spilled over into advocacy against large retail chains and foreign made products. The mo-tivations are typically environ-mental and economic concerns. However, those arguments are very debatable. But there are some purely self-interested rea-sons why people probably should buy local, at least on occasion. In response to this growing “locavore” movement, many commentators warn that the pushback against products that aren’t grown, made, or sold lo-cally can have negative unin-tended consequences. For example, in The Loca-vore’s Dilemma, Pierre Desro-chers and Hiroko Shimizu wrote that “locavorism can only result in higher costs and increased poverty, greater food insecurity, less food safety, and much more signifi cant environmental dam-age.” That sounds counterintui-tive until we consider that large scale farming can often produce more food per acre of land while using less energy per output than small scale farming and that having global trade net-works distributing food from all over the planet frees people from the vagaries’ of local crop conditions. We shouldn’t starve because there’s a local drought. International networks create resilience. While consumers shouldn’t

simply accept their arguments without further scrutiny, they should more critically evaluate the idea that local is always bet-ter. Even if we don’t accept the en-vironmental and economic argu-ments for buying local products or shopping at locally owned retail stores, there are at least three selfi sh reasons why we should buy locally at least some-times (for those of who can af-ford to). Firstly, shopping at local stores helps maintain more con-venient amenities. For instance, it is very nice to have a small convenience store in one’s resi-dential neighbourhood (though modern zoning has rendered them increasingly rare). The ability to walk a few hundred meters to pick up a missing in-gredient while cooking is a valu-able amenity. These stores can only keep the doors open if they have customers. Second, sometimes local prod-ucts really are better. A tomato from a local farmers’ market is often better than the tomatoes from a supermarket. Even man-ufactured products are often better when consumed locally. For instance, many types of beer don’t travel well. Some brewers even forbid sales of their prod-ucts outside of a small radius. Since hops degrade fairly rap-idly, they are concerned that selling beer across the continent will ruin their reputations. And going back to the fi rst argument, having good local breweries and farmers markets are also nice amenities. Moreover, when peo-ple are selling their own prod-ucts, they often take extra care

to ensure that they are provid-ing the best quality possible. Third, buying local often just feels good. Ordering coffee from a barista who has opened her own shop is a more pleasant experi-ence than lining up at a chain coffee shop, as is buying produce right from a farmer rather than picking it off of a pile at a super-market. Buying directly from someone who has built her own business is gratifying. Their sense of pride and accomplish-ment is contagious. While we shouldn’t let our emotions get in the way of rational public policy, we have every right as consum-ers to follow our hearts. Of course, there are some items that it rarely makes sense to buy at a local shop if you can avoid it. Big box stores like Costco, Walmart, and Super-store can sell bulk paper and canned goods at prices that save consumers hundreds of dollars annually. People shouldn’t feel ashamed of saving money. Espe-cially those who can least afford to pay twice as much for a can of beans or a loaf of bread. Public policy often nudges us towards or away from various purchasing decisions. But ulti-mately, it is up to consumers to determine where to spend their money as they see fi t. And some-times buying local just makes consumers better off. That is why local produce, coffee, and beer are booming. Appealing to people’s self-interest will do more to encourage them to buy local than appealing to poten-tially misplaced fears.

To the Editor: When government announced it would be closing four public liquor stores in rural Saskatch-ewan, it claimed it was for fi-nancial reasons. But shutting down stores in small town Sas-katchewan doesn’t make eco-nomic sense. The four Saskatchewan Li-quor and Gaming Authority (SLGA) stores slated for clo-sure in Ituna, Langenburg, Kerrobert and Ponteix provide solid financial returns. The stores generated over $900,000 net income in 2012 – 2013. That’s money that can be used to fund the services we all care about, like hospitals, schools, highways and long-term care homes. The government decision – made without warning or con-sultation - to close these stores will hurt economies in those rural areas. Closing these stores means taking good, fam-ily-supporting jobs out of small towns. Government plans to license franchises to replace stores, but since most franchis-es are located in existing busi-nesses, the lost jobs will likely never be replaced. SLGA employees shop at lo-cal stores, pay local taxes and help keep other institutions, like schools, open. The eco-nomic reality is that for every two public sector jobs in rural Saskatchewan, a third spin-off job is created. Closing rural liquor stores seems more like an ideolog-ically-motivated decision to privatize public liquor sales than a plan grounded in logic and common sense. How many more small town residents will be shocked to learn that their public liquor store will be shut down, de-spite the financial viability of the service and the positive economic spin-offs for the com-munity?

To the Editor:

Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) are car-ing professionals who take pride in providing quality nursing care to patients. LPNs are one of three groups of Nurses that include LPNs, Regis-tered Nurses and Regis-tered Psychiatric Nurs-es. LPNs graduate with a 2-year diploma. They also gain yearly formal and informal education through workshops, in-services, and work expe-rience. Many also take post-secondary education in orthopedics, advanced orthopedics, renal dialy-sis, operating room tech-nician, immunization,

mental health, wound care, foot care, chronic disease, leadership, etc. LPNs contribute to all phases of care and pos-sess the knowledge, skill, inquiry, critical thinking and clinical judgement for decision making to provide safe care. LPNs assess, plan, implement, provide in-tervention and evaluate outcomes for patients. LPNs are responsible and accountable for their own practice. They are self-regulated and are required to work within their scope of practice to meet the standards of practice, competencies and code of ethics set out by their regulatory body, Saskatchewan Associa-tion of Licensed Practi-

cal Nurses (SALPN). Many LPNs in the Saskatchewan work in acute care as well as ob-stetrics, pediatrics, sur-gical units, ambulatory care, minor procedures, operating rooms, pal-liative care, endoscopy, long term care, home-care, primary health clinics, emergency de-partments, community and public health and occupational health and safety and more. LPNs play an impor-tant role in health care. We are competent, ethi-cal, and above all pro-vide safe quality care. We believe that Health Minister, Dustin Duncan and the Pro-vincial Nursing Council support a collaborative

work environment that requires professional-ism from all three nurs-ing groups. LPNs are proud mem-bers of the nursing team making a difference – working indepen-dently and collabora-tively with all members of the health care team and will continue to pro-vide the highest quality, safest care possible to achieve improved out-comes in client and fam-ily centered care. Safety is the responsi-bility of all members of the health care team.

To the Editor:

After a career of railing against the Senate, Prime Min-ister Stephen Harper now says that we’re “stuck with the status quo.” Canadians don’t have to settle for this defeatism – there is a practical plan left to fi x our broken Senate. Mr. Harper was reacting to a unanimous Supreme Court rul-ing that his proposed reforms would require constitutional amendments approved by at least seven provinces represent-ing 50 per cent of the popula-tion. Abolishing it would require the unanimous consent of all ten provinces. Canadians don’t want to open up the constitution for a long,

rancorous debate with the prov-inces that would distract from solving their problems. Yet the problem is worse today than when Mr. Harper started eight years ago. He has turned the Senate into a hyper-political, hyper-partisan chamber, which he personally stocked with the likes of Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau. Fortunately there is a bet-ter way. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has a plan to remove partisanship and patronage from the Senate, and to restore the original purpose of the Fa-thers of Confederation: a cham-ber of sober, second thought. Under a Trudeau government, all Senators would be appointed through an open, transparent

and non-partisan appointment process. Senators would be se-lected on quality and good judg-ment, picking the best of the best from each province. Parties and partisanship would become a thing of the past. No constitu-tional battles required. To get started, Justin removed all Senators from the Liberal caucus. In one morning, he achieved more Senate reform than Mr. Harper had in his en-tire career. Real change to the status quo is within reach. We just need the leadership to get it done!

Mother’s Day is fast approaching and a great way to treat that special lady in your life is to make her breakfast in bed. One of my all time favorite breakfasts are the ham & cheddar scones that my wife Katherine makes for me. It is one that I request time and time again, and I am happy to share it with you. Anytime we have made these for anyone, they always get rave reviews. The biggest tip I can give you is to not over mix the dough - this will make them tough. Work the dough until it just holds togeth-er. Even if the dough looks a bit shaggy, that

is ok... we call that “rus-tic” in the culinary world. Enjoy!

cream, optional Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a jelly roll pan or two cookie sheets with baking spray. Combine flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl. Using a medium fine grater, grate the butter into the flour mixture, stirring occa-

sionally to coat the but-ter pieces in flour. Toss in the ham and cheddar cubes to coat with flour.Add the butter milk and stir only enough to moisten. DO NOT OVER MIX. Divide dough in half. Directly on the baking sheet, form (but don’t over work) each half of the dough into a six inch flat circle approximately one inch thick. Sprinkle the dough lightly with flour as necessary. Cut each disk into six wedges, but don’t sepa-rate the wedges from each other – the support from the scones being side-by-side will help them rise better. Optional – brush the

tops with the whipping cream for a shinier fin-ish. Bake for 15 to 20 min-utes until golden brown. Immediately upon removing from the oven re-cut the scones on the score lines. Cool for five minutes on the pan. Chef Dez is a Food Columnist, Culinary Instructor & Cookbook Author. Visit him at www.chefdez.com Write to him at [email protected] or P.O.

Chef Dez on Cooking

By SHANNON DEVEAUN-R Writer

Members of the Yorkton Zion 8thScout-ing group were recently on hand a regular meet-ing of Yorkton City Council to promote Emergency Prep-aredness Week and request the support of council. May 4-10 is Emergency Preparedness Week in the City of Yorkton, an annual event that takes place each May in col-laboration with Public Safety Canada. The ini-tiative encourages Canadians to take three simple steps to become better prepared to face an emergency. The steps are: know the risks; make a plan; and get an emergency kit. “While governments at all levels are working hard to keep Canada safe, everyone has a role to play in being pre-pared for an emergency. Building awareness is a great first step. By tak-ing an active role in our community, we are

helping to build a cul-ture of preparedness in Canada,” says Dean Rugland, Area Commissioner Good Spirit Area, Yorkton Zion 8th Scouting Group. “As a part of Scouts Canada, we take this seriously. ‘Be Prepared,’ that’s Scouting’s Motto!” Rugland says a good scout would never be caught unprepared in an emergency. “Do you have a kit at home that provides food and drinking water for 72 hours? Have you con-sidered what you would do with your pets in the event of an emergency? What skills learned in Scouting may be useful in times of emergency? These are all reasons Scouts Canada has an Emergency Prep-aredness Badge. The purpose of the badge is to demonstrate knowl-edge of how to prepare for an emergency.” Rugland says there are six requirements in order for a scout to earn the badge. They must:

• Describe three situ-ations that would lead to a community emer-gency. as well as describe who an emer-gency could affect the community and its resi-dents. • Create or update a Family Emergency Plan and discuss it with fam-ily. As a patrol, create a troop plan and present it to the troop. • Create an emergen-cy survival kit for home use to support the fam-ily for 72 hours. • Identify a person in the community who would possibly require help in an emergency and describe how you could help them. • List three emergen-cies that are created by climate/weather and describe how you would prepare for and react. • Earn the First Aid Badge. “As a group we want to be prepared and we want our community to be prepared.” The scout group encourages all residents to get involved and to learn more.

What’s happening at Good Spirit Acres?

Sacred Heart Students travelCon’t from Page 1.

Baker says that the trip was overwhelming, and it helped the stu-dents better understand what happened in the two world wars, and appreciate the sacrifices made by people before them. “You hear it in school, you hear about every-thing that happened in school but you don’t real-ly understand it until you’re there, and you’re experiencing the weath-er conditions because they were the same, and you’re feeling it. It’s an experience that’s over-whelming and emotion-ally draining,” Novak says. “Juno beach was over-whelming. When you got on the beach, and it was windy and raining like it was that day... Lots of girls would just break down and cry, they felt the soldiers with them,” Baker adds. At one of the cemeter-ies, each student placed a flag on a soldier’s grave, and the students

say it helped them appre-ciate what families went through at the time. “My soldier was 21, and my brother is 21, so it’s weird to think that he would have been there, and he could have been in one of those cem-eteries,” Novak says. The trip also helped the class realize how privileged they are, Novak says, because of when the group was delayed trying to find the grave of a class-mate’s grandfather. She notes some people were getting impatient, but she realized what people went through decades earlier. “We couldn’t wait 40 minutes for supper, but they didn’t know when they were going to get their next meal, they didn’t know when they were going to go home. By the end of 10 days, we were all ready to come home to our fami-lies, but they didn’t know when they were going to go home, so you have so much more respect and gratitude for them,”

Novak says. Both students say that going on the trip makes them proud to be Canadian, and Baker says that they were lucky to go on the 70th anniversary of the D-day landings. The students also encourage others to go on a similar trip, and say they want to return in the future and go at their own pace. Baker says that it was a packed itinerary, and she says she hopes to have the opportunity to move at a slower pace. The trip was not only educational, but gave the students a better appreciation for what happened in the two World Wars, and Baker and Novak says that their appreciation and respect for the veterans has grown exponential-ly. “I feel like this next Remembrance Day will be very emotional, because you know the places that they’re talk-ing about, you’ve seen them,” Baker says.

A RECENT TRIP TO EUROPE by Sacred Heart High School students allowed them theopportunity to learn about Canada’s military history and better connect with the past.

– Dale WinnitowyApril, 2014

April was Poetry Month in Canada. In light of that fact, The News Review would like to take the opportu-nity to recognize the works of two local poets. Below is piece entitled poetry and politics by Dale Winnitowy who was recently invited to attend a meet-ing of Yorkton City Council to recite the piece in cele-bration of Poetry Month. The poem was printed previously in the Thursday, April 24 issue of The News Review however improper formatting did not do it justice. The News Review apolo-gizes for the oversight and below is a properly format-ted version. Mr. Winnitowy graduated from the U of S, travelled and became an English teacher, teaching in Yorkton for many years. With a passion for rock’ n’ roll and travel he has since retired and discovered the joys of poetry, photography and international cuisine. At right is the work of Yorkton resident Irene Svenson. Irene’s piece is entitled “What If” – Flight 370, which speaks to the terrible, unresolved tragedy unfold-ing in Malaysia. Irene is a recipient of a Golden Poet Award, presented by World of Poetry for a piece she penned previously called Little People. The award rec-ognizes talented poets from across North America.

In celebration of poetry, local poets recognized“What If” – Flight 370

What if fl ight 70 didn’t fall to the oceanMaybe buried deeply in heavy brush and tall grassWhat if this happened and nobody could fi nd itWhat if the people, after too long there, could not surviveWhat if there was a mechanical failure of some kindOr an explosion, a fi re or a bombWhat if someone unauthorized got into the cockpit and tampered with instrumentWhat if, then the altitude increased to a dangerous highWhat if then passengers lost consciousnesslacking oxygen and diedWhat if then, the last fateful words soundedAlright, good nightOr simply, was this meant to be a permanent good bye.

Falling one goal short of the RBC Cup in their 2012/13 season and return-ing well over double digits in cast members for the 2013/14 season as defend-ing SJHL champs the York-ton Terriers had one silent goal all season. Winning the SJHL before going to the Western Canada Cup for the second season and earn-ing a spot in the National Championships that slipped away the year before. After sweeping the Mel-ville Millionaires to win the Saskatchewan Junior Hock-ey League for the second straight season, the York-ton Terriers battle adver-sity for a two week stretch in Dauphin to win the 2014 Western Canada Cup and a punched ticket to the Junior A National Championship for the fi rst time in nearly a decade for the Yorkton club. Following a 1-2 start to the tournament that put the Terriers on the brink of elimination heading into their fi nal round robin game against the BCHL’s Coquit-lam Express a clutch win and some mathematical luck put Yorkton into the tournament championship game after results had the SJHL representatives hold-ing the tiebreakers for sec-ond place after all the round robin games were complet-ed. The championship game would draw the two prai-rie teams at the Western Canada Cup as the Terriers would face the host Dauphin Kings in the fi nal after the

Kings took fi rst place on the fi nal day of the round robin to give the Terriers an op-ponent who they beat 8-6 in the round robin as their fi nal stop between them and the RBC Cup. Dauphin would

fi nish the round robin por-tion of the tournament with a 3-1 record, but would need to get over the psychologi-cal edge the Terriers held in winning the matchup in the round robin between the

two teams to earn the WCC Championship on Saturday night. With both cities fi lling the Credit Union Place in a thrilling atmosphere thanks to the Manitoba city’s close proximity to Yorkton the two teams would put aside all of the talking points and nerves to provide a classic tournament fi nal in front of a sold out crowd of both Kings and Terriers fans in Dauphin. Looking for an early start to get their fans making the most noise early in the game, the Terriers would make their move as Brett Boehm would begin what would be one of the more legendary performances in the history of the team by scoring his fi rst goal of many on Saturday night to put the Terriers up in front 1-0. Boehm’s goal would come just 3:25 into the game and would prove to be crucial in what was the early start to a back and forth affair for the full 60 minutes. Boehm’s goal wouldn’t last for long as the Kings showed why they were ad-mirable hosts all tourney long with an answer back by Dylan Butler not long af-ter Boehm had Yorkton cel-ebrating. Butler’s fi rst goal of the tournament would be a huge one, but it wouldn’t get the Kings into the inter-mission with a tied score as Boehm would beat Dauphin yet again this time on a wide open breakaway where the forward received a stretch pass from Tyler Giebel be-fore going off to the races to make it 2-1 for the Terriers.

Yorkton Minor Hockey Association will be holding its

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETINGat the Kinsmen Blue Room

Thursday, May 8, 20147:00 p.m.

Cont. from Page 10.

In the second period the Kings would take over control of the game, but Kale Thomson would step up in goal for Yorkton in what was his best peri-od of the tournament. After fighting the flu bug all week before hit-ting his stride in the final round robin game, Thomson came out strong to keep the Kings from tying the game for over half the period despite being under siege from an inspired Dauphin attack. That persistence from the Kings to push for-ward as well as a strug-gle from the Terriers to gain offensive zone time would allow Dauphin to tie the game up on the only goal of the sec-ond period as Tanner Butler would do the honors this time, beat-ing Thomson to level the game at 2-2. There wouldn’t be much for offense to start the final period as the theme from the sec-ond period continued with neither team wanting to give up a crucial goal to sink their hopes of winning the Western Canada Cup and Thomson and Kings goalie Jordan Piccolino doing what-ever they could to keep the pucks out of the net to not be the scapegoat should their team lose. That would change at the 13:42 mark of the period as Tayler Thompson would step up and score a top shelf rocket over Piccolino’s shoulder to give the Terriers what looked like the game winning goal as Yorkton took a 4-3 lead with less than seven minutes remain-ing. Dauphin would have other ideas as the Kings sent as much traffic in front of the net as pos-sible before being rewarded with a gener-ous deflection that changed direction ever so slightly on its way to Thomson that it allowed the puck to find the back of the net to tie the game back at 3-3. The Kings found out quickly after that Brett Boehm would not be denied however, as another breakaway goal would give the Terriers a 4-3 lead before he would score his fifth of the night to give Yorkton the two goal lead they were waiting for all night with just minutes left on the clock for the Kings to find a miracle comeback that wouldn’t come in what ultimate-

ly was a 5-4 final. For Yorkton the 5-4 win would give the team the Western Canada Cup crown and more importantly a spot in the RBC Cup in Vernon, BC for the first time since 2006 for the city. A goal that started after a 1-0 loss in Nanaimo was accom-plished, something that captain Devon McMullen had no prob-lem in admitting after raising the WCC Cup in jubilation. “After losing last sea-son and bringing back close to 15 guys we knew what we wanted to do at the start of the season after coming so close the year before,” said the Terriers cap-tain on the ice post game. “We won the SJHL, now after battling for two weeks against some tough opponents we have accomplished what we wanted all season and it is an amazing feeling to be going to the RBC Cup with these guys.” The distinction of hero of the Western Canada Cup undoubt-edly has to go to Brett Boehm as the Terriers midseason acquisition proved his worth and more all season, and while he didn’t earn much league silverware from an individual standpoint two titles in one month more than satisfied an offensive dynamo who scored nine goals and had 12 points in the tourna-ment. Including five points in the final, scoring four and assisting on Thompson’s late goal that was nearly the winner. Brought in to provide an offensive punch from the Flin Flon Bombers and facing the task of jumping into the locker room of the defending champions with heavy expectation to bring production, Boehm downplayed any pres-sure in an expectedly excited mood after hav-ing arguably the first dominating tourna-ment performance the young Western Canada Cup has ever seen. “Coming here was exciting because it was to join a team that expected to win the championship and had a great group of guys to come jump right into being apart of the group,” says Boehm. “I knew I was brought in to fill a role, but it was never really talked about in terms of put-ting pressure on me scoring and it has been

all about helping the team win since day one of coming year so it has been great to get to come and be apart of winning two champion-ships with a great team.” Despite letting in four goals, Kale Thomson was monu-mental in securing the Terriers spot in the RBC Cup and all it takes is a look back at how things went early in the tournament when he was sick from the flu to see how important the nominee for CJHL Goaltender of the Year has been to the Terriers. Head coach Trent Cassan had nothing but praise for his goalie

when summing up things that helped take the Terriers to the RBC Cup. “What more can you say about Kale that hasn’t been said all sea-son about a player who has stepped up to lead the team”, said Cassan of a goaltender who has spent a long journey with the Terriers. “Kale has accepted any role we have asked of him since he has joined the team, and to go from a backup to a starter to losing his job after Dawson MacAuley got hot last year to becoming one of the best Junior A goalten-ders in the country is something that was crucial to our success

and that I am proud of.” A former Terriers player, Trent Cassan credited the organiza-tion and the players for helping the team get to their first RBC Cup in eight years. “We have great guys behind the scenes, from Gary Carson our scout who brings in amazing players, to our assis-tant coaches to the gen-eral manager Don Chesney I couldn’t ask for a better group of people to work with every day and players to coach so it has been an amazing experience to do this with them.” As for preparations for the RBC Cup, a tournament where the

Terriers will be well amongst the favorites should things shake out their way, Cassan didn’t have much thought put into it in the post game celebra-tions on Saturday. The Terriers coach continued his mantra of enjoying the moment before preparing after some deserved celebra-tions, not giving up much on any potential plans for success in Vernon, B.C. “We will have a week-end off before getting right back into things, luckily we have a bit of experience in getting ready for these tourna-ments now so hopefully that will be a help once we get there.”

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

With Yorkton official-ly back in the RBC Cup field after their win over the Dauphin Kings took the Terriers back to the Junior A National Championship for the first time since 2006, it is time to preview the field that will be in Vernon, B.C. to decide who is the best team in Junior A hockey.

Yorkton (SJHL), Toronto (OJHL), Carleton Place (CCHL), Dauphin (MJHL) and hosts Vernon (BCHL) have earned their spots into the field of five and will be hungry to repre-sent their leagues and cities on the biggest stage in Jr. A hockey. Here is what you need to know about each team in the RBC Cup.

Vernon Vipers (BCHL)

How They Got Here

Vernon are the hosts, but they did make it all the way to the BCHL Final, losing in five games to the Coquitlam Express. A third place finish in the Interior Division is now long forgotten as the Vipers proved in the playoffs that they are contend-ers by making it to the final in what is consid-ered the deepest league in the CJHL. Now it is time to prove it for Vernon.

Who to Watch

Colton Sparrow: Sparrow stepped up his game in the Vipers run to the BCHL Final, scoring 22 points along the way. Vernon is a deep team that will need a player or two to take the charge on offense from time to time which makes Sparrow a key.

Josh Bryan Bryan, the Vipers top veteran defenseman is an inter-esting name because he has now played for two BCHL postseason hosts in back to back seasons after playing with the WCC host Nanaimo Clippers in the 2012/13 season. Bryan, who had 14 playoff assists, will look to share that tour-nament experience with the Vipers in the RBC Cup.

Who’s In Goal

Austin Smith: Smith started every playoff game for the Vipers during the offseason and will be expected to do so in the RBC Cup. Smith’s 10-9 record in the postseason will need to improve should Vernon thrive as hosts.

What are Their Chances?

Vernon will have to like their chances, and you can’t blame them. After all they are hosts and played in a strong league. Still Coquitlam learned fast in Dauphin that the rest of the Junior A teams don’t take the BCHL lightly, and if they want to win as hosts they will need to bring their top game each night.

Carleton Place Canadians (CCHL)

How They Got Here

Carleton place took the CCHL crown despite nearly losing in the league semifinal, need-ing a double OT win to stay alive in Game Six before winning the Bogart Cup and even-tually the Fred Page Cup with a 3-1 win over the host St. Jerome Panthers. Carleton Place also set league records in the regular season with 54 wins and 110 points.

Who to Watch

Stephen Baylis: Baylis shorthanded goal in double OT kept the Canadians alive, and a shorthanded goal was the game winner in the Fred Page cup again for the clutch star. He will hope to continue that magic in Vernon.

Who’s in Goal

Guillaume Therien: Therien was lights out for the Canadians in goal during their record setting season, keeping his GAA having just above 2.07 and winning 25 games out of 28 played after being trad-ed from Hawkesbury. If the Canadians want to keep the ride going they will need his efforts to continue.


If there was an East Coast team to be con-cerned with it would be the 54 win Canadians, but you just don’t know what you are going to get until you see them play on the West Coast. Dealing with travel and a potential step up in competition, the Canadians will need some help to win the RBC. As a just five year franchise the Canadians should be proud to be here.

Toronto Patriots (OJHL)

How They Got Here

Toronto won their divi-sion in the OJHL regu-

lar season with 35 wins before dominating in the playoffs losing just twice before winning the Dudley Hewitt Cup to advance to the RBC Cup.

Who to Watch

Michael Prapavessis: Prapavessis may lead all blueliners in the RBC Cup with 50 regu-lar season assists, good enough to be second on the Patriots in scoring,

Who’s in Goal

Evan Buitenhuis: Buitenhuis starred in every playoff game for the Patriots, holding a 2.04 GAA and will be looking to continue that against the best offens-es in the country.


Toronto showed they have playoff caliber quality in the OJHL Playoffs and the Dudley Hewitt Cup which will make them contenders in this tournament, if Prapavessis can control the play from the blue-line they could make a run at the Cup.

Dauphin Kings (MJHL)

How They Got Here

Dauphin finished third in the league in regular season points, beating up on a weak Addison Division where the sec-ond place team was 15 points back of the Kings at regular season’s end. Starting the playoffs with four straight shut-outs against the OCN Blizzard, Dauphin

showed just how much better they were than the rest of the Sherwood Division by going 8-0 on their way to the MJHL Finals. In the Final the Kings would fall short to the Winnipeg Blues, losing in five games to the Addison Division champs before finish-ing first in the WCC round robin as hosts, losing in the final to the Terriers before earning the second spot in the RBC Cup with a win over the Spruce Grove Saints.

Who to Watch

Dylan Butler: On a balanced team there is not much that sticks out on the Kings roster, but Butler managed to lead the team in playoff scoring with 14 points with seven goals to his

credit. Butler also near-ly averaged a point per game in the regular season as well, notch-ing 33 points in 34 appearances for the Kings.

Who’s in Goal

Michael Stiladis: With a well document-ed four straight shut-outs to start the MJHL Playoffs and 8 straight wins before losing to Winnipeg, Stiladis was red hot in the playoffs before crashing down to earth in the series with the Blues. Stiladis had troubles against the Terriers, allowing plen-ty of goals in their two games at the Western Canada Cup, but he did enough to give his team a chance at making a run to the National Championship should he get hot again like he

was during the league playoffs.


Dauphin defended home ice and the MJHL by beating tough teams in Coquitlam and Spruce Grove to get here, but they did lose twice to eventual WCC champs Yorkton which is a con-cern. The Kings will play wide open hockey, and proved that they can fill the net enough to hang with some very good opposition over the last two weeks in their own building. They will be even bigger under-dogs on the road, but the Kings surely won’t mind being in that posi-tion after proving what they can do against the best in Western Canada.

With the snow and cold behind us, Canadians will be getting busy with dust-ing, mopping and clearing out the closets during their annual spring cleaning. But, before you start clearing out all of the nooks and crannies in your home, it’s important to understand the poten-tial impact on your health.

Though giving your house a deep clean is a good idea, it can also stir up allergens and dust, which can cause irritation to your respiratory sys-tem. Harsh fumes from cleaning products also have the potential to affect your health, especially if you have a lung condition called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis, causes perma-nent narrowing of the lung airways. Symptoms include shortness of breath, coughing up phlegm and wheezing. When symptoms get worse or a new, persistent symptom like a change in phlegm comes on, it could be the beginning of a lung attack, which can poten-tially lead to hospitaliza-tion, restricted mobility and even death.

Before you start your annual spring cleaning, follow these steps:

Natural beauty: Harsh cleaning sprays can cause irritation and trigger breathing problems. Instead, try a less toxic alternative like hydrogen peroxide or a natural cleaning solution like vin-egar.

Destroy dust: Take steps to make your home as dust-free as possible throughout the year by dusting and vacuuming regularly and washing bedding in hot water to avoid the collection of dust mites. If you suffer from respiratory condi-tions like asthma or aller-gies, consider removing or reducing the carpet in your home as well as replacing curtains with blinds to further minimize the collection of dust and dust mites.

Learn about lung attacks: If you have a lung disease like COPD and notice any significant change like increased coughing, shortness of breath, wheezing or an unusual change in phlegm, contact your physician. Discuss your worsening symptoms and also ask if your medication dosages need an adjustment.
