The Strasbourg Community Hall’s upper theatre<br />

was nearly packed as Regina-based motivational<br />

speaker and trainer Darci Lang delivered on<br />

the commitment made in the ads for the event: “Be<br />

inspired by Darci Lang. Change the way you view<br />

your life”.<br />

Born in Saskatchewan, raised in Alberta, a business<br />

owner in Saskatchewan, and a self-taught speaker and<br />

trainer for the past 25 years, Darci Lang has developed<br />

a message that people want and need to hear.<br />

“If anyone understands that life is what you make<br />

it, it’s Darci. She quite literally went out and built<br />

the life she wanted. She has worked for great leaders<br />

and not so great leaders, built three award-winning<br />

businesses and let them go when the time was right.<br />

LMVBA President Kirby Kazeil introduced Ms Lang, and<br />

thanked the corporate sponsors, Govan-based SynergyAG,<br />

and Strasbourg’s Sisters Cafe.<br />

Scare Away Hunger food drive<br />

Lumsden students ‘scare up’<br />

food donations<br />

Lumsden High School students Jacob<br />

Young, Josh Kelln and crew Scared Away<br />

Hunger on Oct 31 by asking the Lumsden<br />

community for donations on Halloween<br />

evening.<br />

Rather than trick or treating, students<br />

went to homes and collected non-perishable<br />

All she has accomplished has been done on her own<br />

terms and by Focusing on the 90% - on the positive in<br />

her world.” That quote from the promotional material<br />

on her website (www.darcilang.com) about says it all.<br />

With an attentive audience of more than 270 local<br />

individuals, business leaders along with their employees,<br />

and civic officials, among others, Darci demonstrated<br />

that she has ‘discovered a solution to help you<br />

live your life, do your job, and connect with the people<br />

who matter most, to the fullest.’ Her key message was<br />

to advise people to focus on the 90 per cent of your<br />

life, your work, and your relationships that bring positive<br />

influences into your life, and to ignore (if possible)<br />

the 10 per cent of those areas in your life that you<br />

can’t change, or have little or no influence over.<br />

By giving real-world examples of family situations,<br />

work situations, and relationship situations (many<br />

from her own personal experience) Darci provided<br />

her audience with the inspiration and tools to apply<br />

her “Focus on the 90%” message to their own lives.<br />

She noted that being positive can be contagious, and<br />

your efforts could have a lasting impact on your life,<br />

and the lives of those around you.<br />

One of her simple ‘tools’ was a small plastic magnifying<br />

glass handed to each attendee …something to<br />

stick on your fridge, bulletin board or by your computer<br />

screen, as a subtle reminder to ‘focus’ on and<br />

magnify the positive.<br />

“Darci Lang is an engaging, entertaining, and<br />

powerful speaker whose message about ‘Focusing on<br />

the 90%’ is clear, insightful and most of all, important.”<br />

The presentation by Darci was organized by the<br />

Last Mountain Valley Business Association. LMVBA<br />

President Kirby Kazeil introduced Darci and thanked<br />

the corporate sponsors (SynergyAG based in Govan<br />

and Strasbourg’s Sisters Café) who made it possible<br />

to bring Darci and her message to Strasbourg. Kazeil<br />

said the event is seen as one part of the LMVBA’s<br />

food items for the Regina & Area Food Bank.<br />

Due to an overwhelming response from the<br />

Lumsden community, students were unable<br />

to collect all the food donations offered and<br />

had to ask community members to drop items<br />

at the school the following day! Thanks to the<br />

great response, students collected over 20<br />

boxes of items and delivered them to the Food<br />

Bank on <strong>November</strong> 5th.<br />

New case of chronic<br />

wasting disease detected<br />

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) has been<br />

discovered in a new wildlife management zone,<br />

meaning the disease has now been confirmed<br />

in 45 of Saskatchewan’s 83 wildlife management<br />

zones. Thirty-four cases of CWD have<br />

been identified in the province this year. The<br />

new case involved a 3½ year-old elk bull in<br />

zone 42E, south of Melfort, that was submitted<br />

as part of the government’s voluntary CWD<br />

surveillance program.<br />

CWD is a fatal nervous system disease that<br />

affects members of the deer family, including<br />

deer, elk, moose and caribou. The disease, which was first discovered<br />

in 2000, threatens populations of these species. Research<br />

suggests that CWD impacts in some areas are resulting in decreased<br />

survival and population decline in mule deer. The disease has not<br />

been detected in humans. However, it is recommended that people<br />

do not consume meat from animals that are known to be infected.<br />

“The information obtained from the voluntary testing program is<br />

critical to evaluating the spread of CWD and guiding our management<br />

strategies,” Ministry of Environment Wildlife Health Specialist<br />

Dr. Iga Stasiak said. “Hunters are encouraged to register online<br />

before taking their cervid heads to any Ministry of Environment<br />

field office. There is no charge for testing and you will get your<br />

results in two to eight weeks.”

$686,572 VLT jackpot Watrous<br />

Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC) announced last week that<br />

a ‘Vault Breaker’ jackpot prize has been awarded by the Saskatchewan<br />

VLT program.<br />

Eric Day of Watrous won $686,572.16 after winning<br />

the Grand Jackpot on Vault Breaker at the Manitou Hotel<br />

on <strong>November</strong> 4, <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

“I didn’t know that I won at first,” Day said. “I don’t<br />

play VLTs all that often, so I didn’t know what was<br />

happening. My buddy had to tell me that I won a major<br />

prize!”<br />

Day said he hasn’t made any major plans for his winnings<br />

at this point, but he has started to think about all<br />

of his options, including a trip to Hawaii someday.<br />

Vault Breaker is a wide-area progressive that links<br />

4,200 VLT machines across the province. There are<br />

three mystery jackpot tiers: the province-wide grand<br />

jackpot has a minimum value of $500,000 and pays out<br />

before it hits $1.5 million, the regional major jackpot has<br />

a minimum value of $5,000 and pays out before it hits<br />

$25,000 and the local site jackpot minimum is $100 and<br />

pays out before hitting $500. Any of the three jackpot<br />

tiers can be awarded when a patron plays Vault Breaker.<br />

The province-wide VLT jackpot has awarded winners<br />

$5,113,899 since June 2017. Vault Breaker’s province-wide<br />

grand jackpot has now been reset to $500,000.<br />

Eric Day, of Watrous, SK. displays his symbolic<br />

cheque for the amount of his Progressive VLT<br />

Jackpot win on <strong>November</strong> 4th.<br />

Victory for veterans: Commons<br />

votes for NDP motion<br />

OTTAWA – On Tuesday,<br />

<strong>November</strong> 6th, the<br />

NDP motion calling<br />

on the Liberal government<br />

to reallocate the<br />

hundreds of millions of<br />

dollars in lapsed funding<br />

to improve services<br />

and benefits for Canadian<br />

veterans, passed<br />

the House of Commons<br />

with all-party support.<br />

NDP MP and<br />

Veterans Affairs<br />

critic Gord<br />

Johns<br />

Stephen Harper’s Conservative government<br />

made massive cuts in veterans’<br />

services and benefits. And the Liberal<br />

government has been unable to spend<br />

the budgeted amounts for veterans while<br />

at the same time their own reporting<br />

shows they are failing to meet half of the<br />

24 service standards for veterans. In the<br />

2016 budget year Liberals underspent<br />

$80.9 million for Veterans Affairs, in<br />

2017 they left $143 million on the table,<br />

and in <strong>2018</strong> budget year they let $148.6<br />

million in spending lapse.<br />

“Now that this NDP motion has passed<br />

with overwhelming support, we’ve forced<br />

the government to commit to spend all<br />

allocated funds for veterans to improve<br />

much-needed services,” said NDP Veterans<br />

Critic, Gord Johns. “But there’s more<br />

to do. Just this week we’ve seen that<br />

veterans were denied benefits because<br />

of an accounting error, and the Liberals<br />

will make them wait two more years<br />

before they fix it. This, on top of the fact<br />

that Liberals are trying to reduce pension<br />

benefits to some veterans. Canada’s<br />

Veterans deserve better.”<br />

New report calls for seniors to be a<br />

priority in 2019 Budget<br />

“If we can build hockey rinks, we can<br />

build long-term care homes” says seniors<br />

group to Trudeau Government. Last<br />

week on Parliament Hill, the Canadian<br />

Association for Long Term Care (CALTC)<br />

Last Mountain Times • Monday, <strong>November</strong> <strong>12</strong>, <strong>2018</strong> • lmtimes.ca<br />

revealed its recommendations for the<br />

2019 Federal Budget and called on the<br />

government to use federal infrastructure<br />

funding to help rebuild older care homes<br />

and fund the creation of 42,000 new<br />

long-term care beds across Canada. The<br />

National group that advocates for seniors<br />

also urged the government to address the<br />

severe labour shortage in long-term care<br />

and provide better access to innovation<br />

and data, helping both Canadian seniors<br />

and policy-makers.<br />

“The Government of Canada is directly<br />

investing over $180 billion over <strong>12</strong> years<br />

on infrastructure for affordable housing,<br />

for roads, for hockey rinks, but not a<br />

nickel on seniors housing that includes<br />

care,” says Daniel Fontaine, Chair of<br />

CALTC. “The federal government can<br />

better demonstrate their commitment to<br />

seniors by investing in new and upgraded<br />

housing to ensure it meets today’s<br />

standards and supports the excellent<br />

delivery of care.”<br />

The recommendations unveiled in<br />

Long Overdue: Improving Seniors Care<br />

in Canada present critical proposals for<br />

strengthening seniors’ care across Canada.<br />

These include: Investing in seniors<br />

housing where care is provided by using<br />

federal infrastructure funding to create<br />

42,000 new beds and help rebuild older<br />

homes by 2023; Addressing the seniors<br />

care labour shortage by developing a<br />

Pan-Canadian Health Human Resources<br />

Strategy; and supporting innovation<br />

and data in health care by mandating<br />

funding, and supporting the implementation<br />

of a new management information<br />

system for long-term care.<br />

PC Party of Saskatchewan elects<br />

new leader<br />

As of <strong>November</strong> 6, <strong>2018</strong>, Ken Grey is<br />

the new leader of the Progressive Conservative<br />

Party of Saskatchewan. Grey<br />

was elected at the party’s leadership<br />

convention in Moose Jaw.<br />

“It’s an honour to be elected to lead<br />

Saskatchewan’s only true conservative<br />

party. I look forward<br />

to building a team that<br />

will make an impact<br />

in the next provincial<br />

election,” said Grey. “I<br />

would like to thank my<br />

fellow leadership candidate,<br />

Paul Carroll,<br />

Ken Gray, Sask for his passion for bettering<br />

our province.”<br />

PC Leader<br />

Grey worked as a certified health care<br />

provider for 16 years and served as the<br />

President and Vice- President of the<br />

SEIU Local 333. Grey also spent several<br />

years as an insurance advisor, until 2014<br />

when he became a Paratransit bus operator.<br />

Grey has extensive experience in<br />

community associations and the labour<br />

movement in addition to understanding<br />

the importance of agriculture to the<br />

Saskatchewan economy. Grey grew up on<br />

the family farm near Colonsay, SK.<br />

Province announces new Legion<br />

and ANAVET support program<br />

This past Friday, the provincial government<br />

announced the creation of the<br />

new support program that will provide<br />

funding grants to Royal Canadian Legion<br />

branches and Army,<br />

Navy, Air Force Veterans<br />

(ANAVET) units in<br />

Saskatchewan.<br />

The $100,000 Legion<br />

and ANAVET Support<br />

Program will be implemented<br />

as part of the<br />

2019-20 budget and will<br />

Chad Wagner<br />

offer support to Legion<br />

branches and ANAVET units in their<br />

efforts to serve veterans and community<br />

members throughout Saskatchewan.<br />

“We look forward to this provincial<br />

investment to ensure long-term support<br />

for our existing veteran services,”<br />

Saskatchewan Legion Executive Director<br />

Chad Wagner said. “The Legion provides<br />

veterans and active members with services<br />

relating to mental health, securing<br />

benefits, service dogs, athletic programs,<br />

and homelessness assistance.”<br />

As not-for-profit member-based<br />

organizations, legions advocate for and<br />

serve veterans, active members of the<br />

Canadian Armed Forces, RCMP, and<br />

their families. Their members provide<br />

vital services in their communities, free<br />

of charge. Legions honour veterans and<br />

fallen heroes through various remembrance<br />

initiatives including Remembrance<br />

Day ceremonies and the Poppy<br />

Campaign. Additionally, Canadian<br />

Legions act as one of the largest community<br />

volunteer groups nationwide. In<br />

addition to providing fraternity for veterans,<br />

ANAVET units in Canada are also<br />

mandated to maintain and operate clubs,<br />

museums, homes and meeting places for<br />

the benefit of veterans and Canada’s war<br />

history.<br />

The provincial government will be<br />

working with the Legion and ANAVET<br />

to determine where this funding will be<br />

most impactful, and release details on<br />

the application process in the coming<br />

months.<br />

Saltcoats resident wins more than<br />

$1.4 million<br />

A Saltcoats man is $1,427,038 richer<br />

Gaming Authority (SIGA)’s Smoke Signals<br />

jackpot. Robert Green hit the top<br />

on <strong>November</strong> 7, <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

When asked what he is going to do with<br />

the money, Green said, “I am not going to<br />

feel it until I have the cheque in my hand.<br />

I have two Harleys and will be buying<br />

another one for sure!”<br />

This is the second Smoke Signals top<br />

tier million dollar progressive jackpot<br />

Antibiotics no cure<br />

for colds or flu<br />

Using an antibiotic when not needed makes<br />

patients more vulnerable to antibiotic-resistant<br />

infections<br />

Cold and flu season for many Canadians means<br />

getting ready to have their lives and routines<br />

thrown off by painful and annoying symptoms.<br />

This can mean days off work or school dealing<br />

with sore throats, nasal congestion and fever. For<br />

parents, it can be challenging to comfort young<br />

kids with fever, coughing or ear pain.<br />

As doctors, we know that both physicians and patients<br />

would love a quick fix - a magic bullet to deal<br />

with these symptoms. Patients want to get their<br />

Dr. Guylene Theriault lives back to normal as quickly as possible.<br />

Unfortunately, antibiotics are not usually the<br />

answer.<br />

Antibiotics are commonly misused because people mistakenly believe<br />

they will treat the symptoms of colds and flus. In fact, fever, cough and ear<br />

pain are usually due to a virus - and viruses aren’t affected by antibiotics.<br />

More than half of all antibiotic prescriptions in Canada are estimated to<br />

be unnecessary - and ineffective.<br />

Common conditions that are usually viral in nature but that are often<br />

prescribed antibiotics unnecessarily include sinus infections, ear infections<br />

and chest colds (or bronchitis). Antibiotics don’t typically help for any of<br />

these conditions and the symptoms will get better with simple rest and<br />

time.<br />

It’s hard for us as physicians not to be able to offer a cure, and difficult<br />

sometimes for our patients to accept that there isn’t much to be done aside<br />

from managing their symptoms and waiting it out.<br />

A good first step is for doctors and patients to have a conversation about<br />

the downsides of unnecessary antibiotics.<br />

What harm can taking unnecessary antibiotics do?<br />

Plenty.<br />

When trying to treat symptoms that are caused by viral infections, antibiotics<br />

don’t help and can actually make patients feel worse. Antibiotics<br />

work by stopping illness-causing bacteria from growing and multiplying.<br />

When diseases are viral in origin rather than bacterial, antibiotics have no<br />

impact.<br />

Using an antibiotic when not needed also promotes the growth of bacteria<br />

that are resistant to commonly-used antibiotics. This makes patients,<br />

especially the elderly, more vulnerable to antibiotic-resistant infections and<br />

undermines the good that antibiotics can do when they’re truly needed.<br />

There are also side effects to taking antibiotics; about one in four people<br />

who take antibiotics experience stomach upset, dizziness or skin rashes.<br />

There’s a new tool that you may notice in your doctor’s office to help have<br />

conversations about when antibiotics aren’t necessary - it’s called a viral<br />

prescription pad. This is a tear-off sheet similar to what you might receive<br />

for a prescription, except it contains information about symptom-relieving<br />

strategies for fevers, aches and pains. It also explains the risks of unnecessary<br />

antibiotics and offers examples of when you should go back to the<br />

doctor should your symptoms worsen.<br />

Receiving no antibiotics for a cold or flu doesn’t mean no treatment. It<br />

just means a different approach.<br />

One way to start the conversation about whether an antibiotic is really<br />

necessary is to use these three questions developed by Choosing Wisely<br />

Canada when talking with your doctor: Do I really need antibiotics?What<br />

are the risks? Are there simpler, safer options?<br />

Correctional Service<br />

of Canada’s review of<br />

offender transfers<br />

New policies implemented<br />

At my request, the Commissioner of the<br />

Correctional Service of Canada conducted<br />

a review of the transfer of an inmate to<br />

a multi-level healing lodge for women to<br />

examine whether all relevant policies had<br />

been properly followed and whether those<br />

policies are the right ones for inmate<br />

management and public safety.<br />

After careful consideration of the<br />

report, I have provided direction to CSC<br />

to improve policies related to transfers<br />

of medium-security women offenders<br />

to facilities that do not have a directly<br />

controlled perimeter. CSC will begin to<br />

implement these policies immediately.<br />

To provide stronger, more consistent<br />

national oversight of these transfers,<br />

they will now need to be authorized by<br />

CSC’s Deputy Commissioner for Women.<br />

Furthermore, the Deputy Commissioner<br />

will be required to ensure that Indigenous<br />

communities are engaged in transfer<br />

recommendations, as part of an interdisciplinary<br />

approach.<br />

CSC will now also consider additional<br />

factors in evaluating transfers of medium-security<br />

offenders to facilities without<br />

a directly controlled perimeter: the<br />

length of an offender’s sentence; the time<br />

remaining before an offender is eligible<br />

for an Unescorted Temporary Absence;<br />

the requirement that long term offenders<br />

be at least into the preparation for release<br />

phase of their correctional plan; and, for<br />

those serving long sentences, their institutional<br />

behaviour.<br />

These changes<br />

will help ensure<br />

the public’s confidence<br />

that our<br />

correctional system<br />

is holding guilty<br />

parties accountable<br />

for breaking the<br />

Ralph Goodale, MP<br />

law, while fostering<br />

their rehabilitation,<br />

so we can have fewer repeat offenders,<br />

fewer victims, and ultimately safer communities.<br />

Healing Lodges, which have been part<br />

of the federal corrections system for<br />

decades, are widely recognized as an important<br />

strategy to achieve these goals. By<br />

providing effective, culturally responsive<br />

interventions, they promote the safe and<br />

successful rehabilitation of Indigenous<br />

offenders. Our government will continue<br />

promoting their valuable role in federal<br />

corrections.<br />

The CSC will also work to increase<br />

public awareness of its evidence-based approach<br />

to internal decision-making, and<br />

strive to enhance meaningful communication<br />

with the families of the victims of<br />

crime.<br />

All Canadians share the grief and pain<br />

of families whose loved ones were innocent<br />

victims.<br />

Missing male<br />

At 8:30 AM on Wednesday,<br />

<strong>November</strong> 7th, <strong>2018</strong> the Yorkton<br />

Rural RCMP received a report of<br />

a 31 year old missing male named<br />

Dustin Eli Medvid. Medvid was<br />

last seen by family on September<br />

11th, <strong>2018</strong> at a residence in Yorkton.<br />

Dustin was again spotted on<br />

October 3rd, <strong>2018</strong> near a business<br />

on the 3500 block of 8th Street<br />

East in Saskatoon, SK. Dustin<br />

is described as being caucasian,<br />

5’10” tall, weighing 200 lbs with<br />

black hair and brown eyes. He is<br />

described as having a full beard<br />

and has a mole on the bridge<br />

of his nose near his eyebrow.<br />

Single Vehicle Fatality<br />

RCMP REPORT<br />

On Nov 4 at 11:00 am, members<br />

of the Broadview RCMP, Whitewood<br />

Fire Department, and EMS<br />

from Whitewood and Grenfell<br />

were called to a single vehicle<br />

rollover on the Ochapowace First<br />

Nation near the Ochapowace<br />

Multiplex. A van was driving<br />

eastbound on the grid road with<br />

three adult female occupants.<br />

The initial scene examination<br />

has lead investigators to believe<br />

that the van entered the gravel<br />

shoulder, then over corrected and<br />

lost control rolling three times<br />

in the South ditch. One of the<br />

Occupants was ejected from the<br />

van and was declared deceased at<br />

the scene. The second occupant<br />

suffered a non life-threatening<br />

injury and the third had minor<br />

injuries.<br />

A forensic reconstructionist<br />

attended to the scene and the<br />

investigation into the all of the<br />

circumstances of the collision is<br />

still underway.<br />

Member charged with Breach<br />

of Trust<br />

On October 13th, two Dillon<br />

RCMP members came across<br />

information indicating that an<br />

on-duty, RCMP officer had improperly<br />

accessed sensitive, private<br />

images from a surveillance<br />

video recording taken in the cell<br />

block area of the Buffalo Narrows<br />

detachment. They immediately<br />

reported their findings to their<br />

supervisor. A criminal investigation<br />

was conducted by Prince<br />

Albert RCMP’s General Investigation<br />

Section (GIS). That investigation<br />

further determined that<br />

at least one still image had been<br />

copied and printed from the video.<br />

As a result, on <strong>November</strong> 6th,<br />

Constable Wade Chitrena with<br />

the Dillon RCMP was charged<br />

Last Mountain Times • Monday, <strong>November</strong> <strong>12</strong>, <strong>2018</strong> • lmtimes.ca<br />

with one count of Breach of<br />

Trust – sec. <strong>12</strong>2 Criminal Code.<br />

Chitrena’s next court date is<br />

scheduled for January 16th, 2019<br />

in Dillon. Cst. Chitrena has nine<br />

years of service with the RCMP.<br />

He has been suspended with<br />

pay at this time. Additionally, an<br />

RCMP Code of Conduct investigation<br />

has been ordered. The adult<br />

female who was the subject of<br />

the images has been advised. As<br />

this case is now before the courts,<br />

the RCMP will not be providing<br />

further details at this time.<br />

Abduction using firearm<br />

On Nov. 7 at 4:20 am, the<br />

Warman RCMP received a complaint<br />

from a person that claimed<br />

they had been threatened at<br />

gunpoint while at a gas station in<br />

Saskatoon. It is alleged that an<br />

adult male demanded the victim<br />

drive him outside the city while<br />

threatening him with a sawed<br />

off shotgun. At first the suspect<br />

made the vehicle owner drive,<br />

but then decided he would drive<br />

himself.<br />

While the suspect was driving,<br />

he dropped the weapon onto<br />

the vehicle floor. As he tried to<br />

regain control of the shotgun it<br />

discharged, striking him in the<br />

leg and causing significant injury.<br />

The suspect stopped the vehicle<br />

and the owner was able to pull<br />

him out of the vehicle, regain<br />

control and drive away from the<br />

scene. The abduction victim<br />

called 911 as he was driving away.<br />

At the same time the suspect<br />

called 911 for assistance with his<br />

injury. 31 year old Marty Chamakese<br />

was arrested and charged<br />

with eight firearms related<br />

offences.<br />

SPORTS<br />

Can LeBron repeat his magic in Los Angeles?<br />

He sparked a championship parade in Miami. He was<br />

responsible for the championship parade in Cleveland.<br />

So can LeBron James do it again in Los Angeles?<br />

The spotlight-hogging National Basketball Association<br />

star learned the ropes in the NBA with the Cleveland<br />

Cavaliers, the closest thing he had to a hometown<br />

team, having grown up in Akron, Ohio. But after seven<br />

seasons without a title with the Cavaliers, and desperately<br />

eager for a championship, he famously announced<br />

on a TV special set up specifically for his announcement<br />

that he was “taking my talents to South Beach,” joining<br />

Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh on a Miami Heat team in<br />

2010 hat proceeded to win two NBA titles in four years.<br />

Free agency beckoned again, and James, the undisputed<br />

king of the NBA court, returned to Cleveland in<br />

2014 and Cavaliers’ fans — who snapped up brand new<br />

‘James 23’ jerseys to replace the ones they burned four<br />

years earlier — were quick to forgive and forget. And<br />

with good reason. James led the Cavs to three NBA<br />

Finals in a row, losing twice to the juggernaut Golden<br />

State Warriors, but winning the title in 2016.<br />

Now, at age 33 and still at the top of his game, James<br />

has moved again, taking up residence in Los Angeles<br />

where he is the star of a mediocre Lakers team that<br />

probably won’t win anything other than television ratings<br />

wars.<br />

But he’s in Hollywood, where a star of his magnitude<br />

probably belongs. His game seems to be as solid as ever,<br />

but he won’t be part of a championship team this year.<br />

The Lakers won only four of their first nine games,<br />

despite James putting up averages of 28 points and nine<br />

rebounds a game. But he’s the game’s brightest star in<br />

the brightest city in the league, and that’s good news for<br />

the NBA.<br />

James turns 34 Dec. 30, so his best years are behind<br />

him. Still, he can dominate for another three or four<br />

years, so the Lakers’ braintrust has a couple of years to<br />

produce a supporting cast strong enough to challenge<br />

for another title.<br />

The Hall of Fame awaits, whether or not James — who<br />

has secured a spot on the Mount Rushmore of NBA<br />

history — wins an NBA crown in Los Angeles, but what<br />

a legacy it would be for him to have brought NBA titles<br />

to three different cities by the time he finally calls it a<br />

career.<br />

TOWN OF LUMSDEN<br />

PUBLIC NOTICE<br />

Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Town of Lumsden intends to<br />

adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw 15-<br />

2002, known as the Zoning Bylaw.<br />

DESCRIPTION<br />

The proposed bylaw amendment will add a new residential zoning district, the<br />

“R4 - Canyon Creek Subdivision Residential”, to the municipal Zoning Bylaw. The<br />

proposed R4 zoning district includes site development regulations very similar to<br />

the “RE - Estate Residential” zoning district, except that it includes a side yard<br />

setback for corner lots of 3.6 metres (the RE district prescribes a 7.6 metre side<br />

yard setback for corner lots) and a smaller minimum site area and minimum site<br />

frontage, respectively.<br />

REASON AND INTENT<br />

The intention is that if the R4 zoning district is added to the municipal Zoning Bylaw,<br />

that a separate zoning bylaw amendment will be made at a later date to effectively<br />

rezone the Canyon Creek subdivision to this new R4 district. The proposed R4<br />

zoning district will include minimum site frontage and minimum site area that is<br />

consistent with the actual parcel sizes and frontages within the Canyon Creek<br />

subdivision.<br />

The reason for the creation of the zoning district is to establish a zoning district that<br />

is more conducive to the actual parcel sizes within the Canyon Creek subdivision.<br />

The Canyon Creek subdivision is currently zoned “RE-Estate Residential”, as such,<br />

most parcels within the subdivision are not compliant with the prescribed minimum<br />

site areas and frontages. Additionally, the lot sizes within the subdivision are not<br />

large enough to accommodate a 7.6 metre side yard setback for corner lots, making<br />

it extremely difficult for individuals to build homes on corner lots.<br />

PUBLIC INSPECTION<br />

Any person may inspect the bylaw at the Lumsden Municipal Office, located at 300<br />

James St North, in the Town of Lumsden, between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:00<br />

PM (open over the noon hour) from Monday to Friday, excluding statutory holidays.<br />

Copies of the proposed bylaw are available at the Lumsden Municipal Office for a<br />

cost of $1.00 and are on the Town of Lumsden website: www.lumsden.ca, under the<br />

‘announcements’ tab.<br />

PUBLIC HEARING<br />

Council will hold a public hearing on <strong>November</strong> 27,<br />

<strong>2018</strong> at 7:30 p.m. at 20 Third Avenue in Lumsden,<br />

SK. in the Council Chambers located at the back<br />

of the Library, to hear any person or group that<br />

wants to comment on the proposed bylaw. Council<br />

will also consider written comments received at<br />

the hearing, or delivered to the undersigned at the<br />

municipal office before the hearing.<br />

Issued at the Town of Lumsden this 5th day of <strong>November</strong> <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

MINISTERIAL MESSAGES<br />

Can you see it?<br />

I remember a day years ago, driving to work with<br />

a colleague who was a hunter. As the sound of the<br />

pavement was thumping under our tires, out of the<br />

blue he said “Can you see it? Do you see that deer<br />

over there in the field?” I looked and looked and for<br />

the life of me I simply could not see that deer, but he<br />

was talking with such assurance in his voice I knew<br />

it must be there, it was just not coming into focus<br />

for me. Finally, with much effort, I was able to see<br />

what had come into view so easily for my friend and<br />

there it was, a big, beautiful White Tail meandering<br />

through some bush.<br />

How easy it is to see something when your eyes<br />

are trained to perceive it! AND, how easy it is to be<br />

oblivious to what is going on around you when you<br />

don’t know what you are looking for.<br />

There was a group of men who were in the countryside<br />

among many people who had nothing to eat<br />

and there was need of food to help them in their<br />

hunger. A discussion broke out among some of them<br />

which convinced them that there was nothing that<br />

could be done. They thought that it made logical<br />

sense to see the equation: no food, isolated, no<br />

help,no options.<br />

But what they failed to see was that Jesus was<br />

right there among them and in Him there is always<br />

hope!<br />

In Mark 8:17 Jesus finally says to the group, “Why<br />

are you talking about having no bread? Do you still<br />

not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened?<br />

Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to<br />

hear? And don’t you remember? When I broke the<br />

five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets<br />

full of pieces did you pick up?”<br />

Then the people replied that they had seen and<br />

had picked up the remnants of bread after everyone<br />

had eaten their fill, and this was after Jesus simply<br />

and miraculously multiplied what little food there<br />

was in the first place!<br />

It’s hard to imagine the disciples experiencing<br />

something as eye-catching as that and then to find<br />

themselves in exactly the same situation and no<br />

one even suggested the possibility that Jesus might<br />

be an option again--a way through which a situation<br />

might change and yet their eyes didn’t see the<br />

possibilities.<br />

Well, I’d like to say that I am very different from<br />

those disciples, that I can see clearly Jesus in my<br />

everyday life and the possibilities and options that<br />

He provides for His children, but if I’m honest, I<br />

am more like the one who is driving down the road<br />

and simply cannot see that deer that is so plainly in<br />

view: I just needed the eyes to see.<br />

But again, my hope does not rest in my abilities<br />

to perceive, or the sharpness of my mind, or even<br />

the extent of my experiences, my hope rests in<br />

Jesus. He promises to walk with me and help me to<br />

perceive important things that are simply foreign<br />

to me, and just like those disciples, He is all about<br />

helping us to learn what it means to live with a<br />

Kingdom mindset. Thank God that He is for us and<br />

not against us! We are in good hands.<br />

Oh, and by the way, even though the disciples<br />

were a little slow in their perception, the miracle<br />

still happened. Jesus still fed all those people and<br />

were satisfied.<br />

I have a sneaking suspicion that He is still about<br />

His business today. . . .can you see it?<br />

cognitive diagnoses: “Well, this all will come easy<br />

to you. You’re really good at all things disability<br />

related!”<br />

I chewed on that statement a lot, aware of the experiences<br />

of other families who’ve gone before me.<br />

The one thing I knew for sure was that I was going<br />

to love my kid fiercely for the unique little thinker<br />

he would turn out to be.<br />

Media and social media portray childhood<br />

disability in extremes, making it difficult for those<br />

who don’t have first-hand knowledge to understand<br />

the complete picture. On one side, you see videos<br />

of cute little kids taking their first steps or uttering<br />

their first words and succeeding “against all odds;”<br />

on the other, I regularly encounter families who<br />

receive articles from well-meaning friends and<br />

family on controversial therapies claiming to “heal”<br />

a disability diagnosis.<br />

It would be difficult for anyone to fully understand<br />

the lives of families like mine given the mixed<br />

bag of (mis) information out there. So maybe this is<br />

why the use of seclusion rooms in Canadian schools<br />

never seems to get the attention it deserves.<br />

Seclusion rooms are separate spaces used to physically<br />

isolate a child in emotional distress. They can<br />

vary widely: sometimes padded, sometimes small<br />

and with no windows, some with dim lighting to<br />

help the child de-escalate and some with a lock on<br />

the door.<br />

Many Canadians might be surprised to learn<br />

there have been several reports of their use on<br />

children with disabilities in recent years in schools<br />

in British Columbia and Ontario - including a court<br />

case against their use in Alberta.<br />

One challenging reality for some kids with developmental<br />

disabilities is that there are often triggers<br />

that cause a child to physically lash out or ‘melt<br />

down.’ There are many reasons for this to happen,<br />

such as an inability to communicate, sensory overload<br />

or social challenges. So what else can be done<br />

in place of seclusion rooms when this happens?<br />

Plenty.<br />

It’s well understood in the field of developmental<br />

disabilities that a child’s behaviour is a form of<br />

communicating something amiss in their world.<br />

Identifying and addressing the trigger can help<br />

prevent the behaviour. A modern understanding of<br />

disability through research<br />

informs how to effectively<br />

deescalate these isolated<br />

‘melt down’ moments, seeking<br />

solutions that ensure<br />

everyone involved remains<br />

safe. Forcefully locking a<br />

child in a closet doesn’t<br />

come close to making the<br />

list.<br />

Having regular conversations<br />

between parents,<br />

Rae Martens<br />

teachers and support teams at school to ensure<br />

everyone is aware of developments and on the same<br />

page with how to treat certain situations is essential.<br />

Whenever possible, including the student in the<br />

conversation helps them to understand their needs<br />

and potentially learn to communicate those needs<br />

before things escalate.<br />

The idea behind seclusion rooms comes from<br />

their use in mental health facilities. But while mental<br />

health facilities are subject to regulatory processes<br />

and inspections, there’s little accountability<br />

for the use of these rooms for children in schools in<br />

Canada.<br />

Alberta is moving in the right direction by<br />

convening a working group of parents, advocates,<br />

specialists and teachers to set new guidelines when<br />

isolating students with behavioural issues. It’s a<br />

first step anyway. But it’s time for a national conversation<br />

on the use of seclusion rooms in Canadian<br />

schools.<br />

Canada has ratified the United Nations Convention<br />

on the Rights of the Child and the Convention<br />

on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. These<br />

were created as models for the safety and equality<br />

of all persons. Now we need to be taking a good look<br />

at how we can ensure these standards are upheld<br />

for all Canadian kids. Looking at eliminating seclusion<br />

room use would be a good place to begin.<br />

Silton Legion<br />

An historical view: Part Two<br />

The following is the<br />

second in a series of articles<br />

by Robert Walker,<br />

of the history of the<br />

Royal Canadian Legion<br />

Silton Branch #33,<br />

Chartered 11 January<br />

1927, Ladies Auxiliary<br />

Chartered 10 June 1931<br />

– Charters surrendered<br />

January, 2000.<br />

Compiled by R.A. (Bob)<br />

Walker, President,<br />

Silton Branch #33, September<br />

30, 2006<br />

In July 1934, members<br />

were looking into<br />

building or acquiring a<br />

suitable Legion building.<br />

This activity must<br />

have been in vain as<br />

similar motions reappear in 1947 with a building being obtained from Comrade Bill<br />

Batty and moved into Silton for refit and first meeting finally held on May 27, 1949<br />

in the branch’s very own building.<br />

Tough times of the Dirty 30s are evident by brief minute notes recorded in pencil<br />

using 5 cent school scribblers, but Remembrance Day Services and joint Legion and<br />

Ladies Auxiliary suppers continued. Some 1935 meetings were held at the office<br />

of the Pool Elevator, local garage, or lumber yard, but mostly in members’ homes.<br />

Branch minutes of March 31, 1935 record a motion to investigate procuring a WWI<br />

memorial window for installation in the Silton United Church. October/<strong>November</strong><br />

1937: 300 pictures in folders with memorial verse were ordered for a fund raising<br />

sale at 5 for $1. At a regional Legion meeting, on May 1\18, 1935 of 21 Earl Grey,<br />

Silton and Strasbourg members a feisty group of returned veterans discussed and<br />

pursued resolutions including:That all cuts in small pensions be restored; That<br />

restored pensions 30% and under be made permanent; Right of pensioners to apply<br />

for Board (review) be restored; Resolution condemning provincial government’s<br />

dismissal of a veteran without just cause. Motion: Letter of direction to Indian Head<br />

zone that provincial command adopt a more militant attitude regarding the dismissal<br />

of ex-serviceman from public service of the province without just cause. (A<br />

reaction to the dismissal of an Earl Grey beer store ex-serviceman employee.)<br />

Minute August 9, 1936 “that $10 be donated to Commander Becher to enable him<br />

to purchase half year car and driver’s license to enable him to visit his wife in Qu’<br />

Appelle san”. (Writer’s comment: wow!) June 1937 motion to pay $10.00 coronation<br />

expenses. Meetings of this era being held in local lumber yard office - garage or<br />

elevator. A gap in Silton Legion minutes exists from April 1941 to 1947 - Jim Ewing,<br />

WWII veteran suggests that H.J.C. Captain Becher pretty well kept the branch going<br />

while all the men were away (to war). August 15, 1945: Flags flying in honour of the<br />

end of World War II. A celebration was held in the hall for the end of the Japanese<br />

war. August 19: A thanksgiving service was held in the church with 80 people in<br />

attendance. Later, a public reception was held in honour of the returning veterans,<br />

among whom were Lorne Salkeld, George Burrows, Jake Bundas, John Watson Fred<br />

Cowan, Ted Ball, Raymore Wright and Jim Ewing. (Credit: Early Silton History by<br />

Myrtle Burrows )<br />

Perusal of Royal Canadian Legion, Silton Branch regular meetings minutes from<br />

May 29 1947 identify Com Becher as president, Comrades Cowan, J. Becher Jr., A.<br />

Rich, W. Rich Sr., W. Batty White, J. Anderson, and Secretary Treasurer J. Ewing<br />

for a total of 9 attending the meeting. (This is similar to our count of 7 to 9 attending<br />

monthly meetings in 2006.)<br />

Semans Fall Supper<br />

and other news<br />

Some of the more than 340 people who enjoyed the annual Semans Fall Supper. (the<br />

elusive Sylvia and Dennis Simpson, of Nokomis, are shown in the foreground!)<br />

The Annual Semans Fall supper was a great success. The food was delicious<br />

and the weather cooperated. There were approximately 340 people in attendance.<br />

Donated food, money and volunteer time was all greatly appreciated.<br />

Money raised at this function goes toward repairs and upkeep to the gymnasium.<br />

The Semans Gym committee can be congratulated on another super job.<br />

In the October 29 issue I neglected to include in the Semans Fire and Rescue<br />

Steak Fry news, that Nokomis Richardson Pioneer donated the cooking oil for the<br />

french fries. My apoligies to both involved.<br />

Local residents will be saddened to learn of the passing of long-time Semans<br />

resident Alan Richardson, on Sunday, <strong>November</strong> 4th. Alan was 90 years old. At his<br />

request, there won’t be a funeral.<br />

Tony Sugarman, a British war veteran,<br />

suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder<br />

(PTSD) due to his time as a soldier<br />

and the horrific images he endured. He’s<br />

lived with PTSD for the past 30 years,<br />

recalling horrific memories of his time<br />

as a soldier in Germany, and in Northern<br />

Ireland, at the height of the Irish<br />

turmoil. Tony and his family moved to<br />

Southey in 2007 when they came over<br />

from Wales to visit a friend, and he<br />

received a job offer here.<br />

Sugarman was happy to move to<br />

small-town Saskatchewan, and he said<br />

that one of the first things he noticed<br />

when he entered Southey is a stunning<br />

mural painted onto the side of the drugstore<br />

to honour soldiers. (The mural was<br />

painted by well-known Saskatchewan<br />

artist, Ernest Bereti.)<br />

He decided that, for the betterment<br />

of his mental health and to gain new<br />

friends, he wanted to join the local Legion.<br />

He approached the Southey Town<br />

Office to inquire about joining and to his<br />

dismay he was advised the Legion had<br />

closed in 2000. He was saddened by this<br />

news because he knows that a Legion<br />

is like a family and that a Legion offers<br />

support to serving military, RCMP members<br />

and veterans. Veterans like himself.<br />

He decided to take matters into his own<br />

hands.<br />

“I had this crazy idea of reopening<br />

the branch, and I think it was about<br />

18-months later, after a load of red<br />

tape, they gave us our charter back. At<br />

the time, so I was told, no one had ever<br />

done it before. Nobody had ever tried to<br />

reopen a branch, especially in a small<br />

town,” Tony noted.<br />

Sugarman said he had to make promises,<br />

gather at least 11 members and<br />

Tony Sugarman spear-headed the reopening<br />

of the Southey Branch of the Royal<br />

Canadian Legion.<br />

be interviewed by the provincial president<br />

at the time. Due to his dedication<br />

and perseverance, in 2009, the Royal<br />

Canadian Legion Southey Branch No.<br />

350 reopened. Today, the Legion has 18<br />

current members. Over the years, along<br />

with reopening the branch, the group<br />

also planted a memorial garden and<br />

erected a cenotaph to memorialize all<br />

fallen soldiers.<br />

Their efforts have not gone unnoticed.<br />

Community members are all honoured<br />

to have such a beautiful place to pay<br />

tribute to those who sacrificed for our<br />

freedom and those who continue to<br />

sacrifice.<br />

The Knight and his War Bride<br />

Art & Betty Ramshaw<br />

Overheard at the coffee shop<br />

9<br />

It is surprising to find an actual knight in<br />

small-town Saskatchewan, but Arthur<br />

Ramshaw and his wife Betty are a surprising<br />

couple. Despite a courtship of only eight<br />

weeks, they have been married for almost 73<br />

years. Despite only four years of schooling,<br />

Betty is a published author and talented artist.<br />

Art, at the age of 100, and Betty, 93, still<br />

live on the family farm just west of Nokomis,<br />

and are going strong, as evidenced this summer<br />

by their thriving garden and well-maintained<br />

home and yard.<br />

Art is a Knight of the National Order of the<br />

Legion of Honour - granted by the government<br />

of France in appreciation of his contribution<br />

to the liberation of France during the<br />

Second World War. This honour was presented<br />

in 2015, in a ceremony at Government<br />

House, Regina. When asked how he came to<br />

be given the medal, Art shrugged and replied,<br />

“I don’t know how they got my name. I wasn’t<br />

the only one - they should have all gotten<br />

medals I think.”<br />

Art enlisted in 1940 and joined the 8th<br />

Reconnaissance Regiment, which was composed<br />

half of men from Saskatoon and area,<br />

and half from Regina and area. They shipped<br />

to England in 1941. Art has a wooden cigar<br />

box full of photos and mementos from his<br />

war years. A small notebook full of beautiful<br />

penmanship includes his list of all the<br />

French towns his regiment went through.<br />

There is also one of his letters to his mother,<br />

and a photograph taken in Ghent. The box<br />

also holds a more recent colour photo of the<br />

Canadian War Cemetery in Bergen op Zoom,<br />

Holland, where Art laid a wreath in 1994.<br />

Reminiscing about the war, Art clearly<br />

remembers “the first armoured car I lost. I<br />

had just gotten out, and then it blew up.” It<br />

had been hit by a German shell. He was then<br />

assigned to a Bren gun carrier, but was not<br />

fond of it. He was obviously pleased to be put<br />

back in armoured cars, and can still list their<br />

mechanical features, including power steering,<br />

rather like a man recalling a much-loved<br />

car from his youth.<br />

Art and Betty met in 1945. Betty was working<br />

in a factory producing army uniforms, although<br />

the war was over; and Art was still in<br />

England, waiting to be shipped back home to<br />

Canada. Betty had been working since she left<br />

school at 14 to earn money for her family. She<br />

had been unable to start school until she was<br />

10, because she had tuberculosis as a child.<br />

The army barracks in Hadleigh, five miles<br />

Art and Betty Ramshaw met after the end of the<br />

Second World War, and have been married almost 73<br />

years.<br />

This somewhat weathered sign greets visitors to<br />

the Ramshaw place just west of Nokomis. I’m sure<br />

refurbishing the sign is in Art’s very long ‘to do’ list!<br />

from Betty’s home in Essex, had a weekly dance and 20-year old Betty and her friends decided to attend.<br />

After they had danced a few times, Art declared, “I’m going to marry you,” but Betty recalls she was not<br />

immediately persuaded. However, within eight weeks they were married, in a little Saxon church, on December<br />

22. On January 18, Art was returned to Canada, leaving his new bride with her family.<br />

Betty recalls that in the long months before she was able to sail to Canada, her life continued as it had<br />

before and “my wedding and my new husband became a pleasant, dream-like memory.” When she received<br />

a letter from the Canadian Embassy in June, stating that she was to leave England on July 26, it was as if a<br />

bubble broke and she realized she could hardly remember the man she had married.<br />

She also realized that she knew almost nothing about the country - she was a citizen because of her<br />

marriage, but had to practice spelling Saskatchewan. Her family was concerned that her husband might<br />

mistreat her when she was far away. Betty tells about another war bride in the area who discovered that<br />

her husband was “no good.” She’s thankful that wasn’t her experience.<br />

After sailing from Southampton and taking a train from Halifax, Betty reached Regina in early August.<br />

She hardly recognized Art out of uniform, and was overwhelmed by the strange building styles, the huge<br />

prairie sky and the overpowering heat. After three days in the city, getting reacquainted, eating food she<br />

had almost forgotten existed and visiting friends, it was time to go to her new home on the farm. She<br />

wrote, “I had found my man again. I was ready for a new land, a new beginning.”<br />

She met Art’s family at the Nokomis train station and then was taken to the farm. The yard was overgrown<br />

and the house very run down and primitive. Betty remembers “dirt and desolation”. Together the<br />

new couple worked to clean, repair and decorate the house. They raised cows, chickens and turkeys, as well<br />

as crops. Betty wrote, “Grasshoppers ate their way through years of my life. The sun burned the earth, and<br />

that never-ending wind blew and blew. I would like to say we prospered in those early years, but we didn’t.”<br />

Along with many other farmers, they took jobs in the city, Art worked at the potash mine in Lanigan, and<br />

they survived. They raised three children: Mark who is a Pentecostal minister in northern Saskatchewan;<br />

Gary who has a business in Red Deer; and Bev, who is now retired and living in Prince George.<br />

The Ramshaws attend Christ Church, Nokomis, part of Last Mountain Parish. Deacon Jack Robson says<br />

Art likes to participate by taking up the collection, and predicted (correctly) that if the author visited them,<br />

she would take home delicious home-made bread!<br />

Home Plan of the Week<br />

Rock Creek is a spacious townhome<br />

By Associated Designs<br />

Don’t be fooled by appearances.<br />

The Rock Creek is a town home<br />

that looks small from the front, but<br />

extends quite a ways back behind<br />

its charming front facade. A stucco<br />

exterior and gracefully curved entry<br />

arch give this contemporary<br />

plan a decidedly Mediterranean<br />

look. The home would be an equally<br />

good fit in a Southwestern or<br />

Florida neighborhood.<br />

A welcoming front porch spans<br />

the front, next to the entry arch.<br />

Double doors off the porch open<br />

into what could be a home office,<br />

study, or your choice. Natural light<br />

Just past a flight of stairs, the<br />

Some of the anonymous, costumed curlers<br />

at the Halloween Spiel. (still no word on<br />

who was dressed as The Invisible Man<br />

...second from the left, back row).<br />

The Halloween Spiel had eight 2-person teams curling. Four or five people dressed up, but the rest<br />

figured they were scary enough already! Best costume goes to the invisible man in the middle of the back<br />

row! They didn’t seem to keep track of who won, so I guess it didn’t matter that much!<br />

Diger’s officially re-opened<br />

After several months of extensive renovations and rebuilding, Diger’s Service and Deli in Strasbourg was officially<br />

re-opened for business on Monday, <strong>November</strong> 5th. Strasbourg Mayor Kelvin Schapansky (a former owner of<br />

the business) helped owner Ken Patel cut the ribbon. The fuel storage tanks have been replaced with new<br />

larger tanks, set back further from the building; new electronic pumps have been installed; the 2,500 sq. foot<br />

addition, extending around to the back of the older building is complete; and the convenience store is once again<br />

operational. Ken must be pleased that things are getting back to ‘normal’ !!<br />

Housing market update:<br />

CMHC<br />

OTTAWA- Canada’s housing markets should see a<br />

moderation in both housing starts and sales while<br />

house prices are expected to reach levels that are<br />

more in line with economic fundamentals such as<br />

income, job and population growth. This forecast<br />

for 2019 and 2020 is drawn from the <strong>2018</strong> Housing<br />

Market Outlook released last week by Canada Mortgage<br />

and Housing Corporation (CMHC).<br />

Nationally, CMHC’s outlook for 2019 projects total<br />

housing starts to edge down and range between<br />

193,700 to 204,500 with the downward trend<br />

expected for both single and multi-unit starts.<br />

MLS sales are expected to be between 478,400 and<br />

497,400 units annually while MLS prices should lie<br />

between $501,400 and $521,600.<br />

Regional Highlights:<br />

Prairies: Buyers’ market conditions in both<br />

Alberta and Saskatchewan should gradually shift<br />

to a balanced market with gradual improvement in<br />

economic and demographic fundamentals. Balanced<br />

market conditions in Manitoba are expected<br />

to continue.<br />

British Columbia: Housing starts activity and<br />

MLS Sales in British Columbia should moderate as<br />

economic and population growth slows while MLS<br />

Average Prices are expected to see a flatter growth<br />

profile through 2020.<br />

“Our key takeaway from this year’s outlook is<br />

moderation in Canada’s housing markets for 2019<br />

into 2020. Housing starts are expected to decline<br />

from the higher levels we’ve seen recently,” Bob<br />

Dugan, Chief Economist,Canada Mortgage and<br />

Housing Corporation stated. “ We expect resales in<br />

2019 and 2020 to remain below recent peaks while<br />

prices should reach levels that are more in line with<br />

economic fundamentals such as income, job and<br />

populations growth.”<br />

Diagnosis Prognosis<br />

Bernie Siegel, author of Love, Medicine<br />

and Miracles, says that while a doctor<br />

is able to give a diagnosis, no one can<br />

give an accurate prognosis. This is a very<br />

empowering thought. What it means is<br />

that even if one has been diagnosed with<br />

something serious, or chronic, no one<br />

can say for sure what will happen.<br />

Consequently, a prognosis might needlessly<br />

become a self-fulfilling prophecy.<br />

A negative prognosis can lead to giving<br />

up. Seigel says that those who make<br />

the best recoveries are those who do as<br />

many things as possible to help themselves.<br />

If someone essentially tells us there<br />

is no hope, what is the motivation for<br />

trying to get well, or to improve our<br />

situation? I recently read a psychological<br />

assessment that was done on one of<br />

my clients when she was in elementary<br />

school. The writer stated this individual<br />

would never perform strongly academically.<br />

Now in high school, the student’s<br />

marks are all over 80% and some are in<br />

the 90’s.<br />

Another client was told by his doctor<br />

that he had an anxiety disorder, and<br />

OBITUARY<br />

RICHARDSON - Alan V.<br />

Dec. 23, 1927 - Nov. 4, <strong>2018</strong><br />

It is with sadness that the Richardson family announces<br />

the passing of husband and father, Alan Vallance Richardson<br />

on <strong>November</strong> 4th, <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

Alan was born Dec 23rd 1927, in Winnipeg. At that time,<br />

train service from Semans was the most economical and<br />

practical means to reach a hospital. Alan and his sister,<br />

Ruth were raised on the farmstead south west of Semans<br />

by their parents, Mabel and Arthur. Alan attended school<br />

in Semans and would have been part of the 1945 graduating<br />

class, but the sudden death of his father left him in charge of<br />

the farm at the age of 16.<br />

When Alan travelled to Britain to visit relatives, he met Josephine Nanette Nicolson.<br />

Josephine later moved to Alberta, and 1961 Alan married Josephine at the Anglican<br />

Church in Semans. Alan enjoyed a shared passion with Josephine in growing<br />

flowers and tomatoes in their greenhouse and gardens.<br />

Alan was very fond of Semans and its history, and was involved with curling, badminton,<br />

the Wheat Pool Committee, local Co-op Board, Nokomis Hospital Board,<br />

and as an RM councillor. After retiring, Alan, with his son Iain, pursued an interest<br />

in restoring antique trucks, and he was a member of two collectors organizations.<br />

Alan is predeceased by his sister Ruth and niece Robin, and is survived by his<br />

wife Josephine, and children John (Cynthia), Kathleen (Joel), and Iain (Coreen).<br />

At Alan’s request, no service will be held. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating<br />

to the Semans Cemetery c/o Semans Village Office.<br />

We must never underestimate the<br />

resource, which, when focused in a<br />

positive direction, can produce dramatic<br />

outcomes. To do this, however, it must<br />

As noted last week there are concerns<br />

over the new federal carbon tax within<br />

the farm sector.<br />

Grain farmers are already asking the<br />

Government to provide additional relief<br />

from the Federal carbon pollution backstop<br />

given the impact it will have on their<br />

ability to compete in markets at home<br />

and around the world.<br />

“The carbon price will add costs to<br />

farm inputs and to transporting our<br />

grains to market making it more expensive<br />

to be a grain farmer in Canada compared<br />

to our key competitors around the<br />

world,” said Jeff Nielsen, Grain Growers<br />

of Canada President in a release. “Providing<br />

additional relief will not impact<br />

growers’ commitments to reducing GHG<br />

emissions. Growers are already doing<br />

that, and they will continue to work hard<br />

to grow more, with less.”<br />

If fuel prices rise, users will be forking<br />

out more cash when they fill their<br />

fuel tank whether it is a sales clerk in a<br />

department store filling their car, or a<br />

farmer buying fuel for their grain truck.<br />

How will the suggested rebates work in<br />

covering the full new costs people face?<br />

That is certainly an area of uncertainty.<br />

So will the carbon tax ultimately have a<br />

positive effect?<br />

The primary purpose of carbon tax is to<br />

lower greenhouse-gas emissions, which<br />

as they increase it will raise temperatures,<br />

affecting things such as the melt<br />

rate of the ice caps, and the growing conditions<br />

for grains and oilseeds in various<br />

areas of the world.<br />

In general terms a carbon tax charges<br />

a fee on fossil fuels based on how much<br />

carbon they emit when burned. In order<br />

to reduce the fees, utilities, business and<br />

individuals attempt to use less energy<br />

derived from fossil fuels.<br />

It is a worthwhile effort when you consider<br />

the potential impact of temperature<br />

change, particularly on farming.<br />

However, there is a question whether<br />

Canada’s efforts can have any impact<br />

when countries such as the United States,<br />

especially under an anti-science leader<br />

such as Donald Trump have no plans to<br />

change things?<br />

The uncertainty of the details regarding<br />

the Canadian plan, set against the<br />

broader question of its global impact, are<br />

enough to make people at best cautious,<br />

if not outright fearful.<br />

MLA REPORT<br />

NOVEMBER - <strong>2018</strong><br />

Lyle Stewart,<br />

MLA Lumsden-Morse Constituency<br />

Phone:(306) 683-3229<br />

email: lumsdenmorse.mla@sasktel.net<br />

REPORT FROM THE LEGISLATURE<br />

Members of the Legislative Assembly just<br />

wrapped up debate on the <strong>2018</strong> Speech<br />

from the Throne. The Speech outlines our government’s<br />

commitment to stand up for Saskatchewan,<br />

and highlights our plan to balance<br />

the budget, grow the economy and invest in infrastructure,<br />

programs and services for the people<br />

of our province.<br />

In the spirit of Halloween, Opposition members<br />

replied to the Throne Speech by disguising<br />

themselves as a “government-in-waiting” – and<br />

that’s pretty scary, isn’t it? The NDP used their<br />

time in the Assembly to speak in support of all<br />

sorts of spooky ideas that would kill jobs and put<br />

Saskatchewan’s economy on life support.<br />

The NDP supports a carbon tax, higher business<br />

taxes, higher resource royalties, and opposition<br />

to pipelines. These policies kill jobs and<br />

yet they are the economic policies of the NDP<br />

and their new Leader, who now serves as their<br />

Economy Critic.<br />

The NDP talk about being unafraid to Dream<br />

and Deliver. When they say this, what they really<br />

mean is dreaming up new ways to spend your<br />

money and delivering tax increases to pay for it<br />

all. This aligns with all the new spending their<br />

leader has dreamt up.<br />

In addition to raising taxes, shutting down<br />

our resource sector, and killing jobs, the Opposition<br />

is proposing another $2.5 billion in new<br />

spending each and every year. If you ask me,<br />

Dream and Deliver sounds more like a nightmare.<br />

With their reckless spending and job-killing<br />

policies, the NDP aren’t fooling anyone. They<br />

may have a different leader but their record of<br />

tax hikes, population decline and economic<br />

stagnation still haunts them to this day.<br />

A recent trip to Toronto brought benefits<br />

back home.<br />

While in Toronto, Premier Moe and Premier<br />

Ford discussed their shared commitment to reducing<br />

interprovincial trade barriers. The two<br />

premiers announced a Memorandum of Understanding<br />

to begin discussions on lowering interprovincial<br />

barriers.<br />

Saskatchewan also met with the Canada-India<br />

Business Council ahead of an important<br />

trade mission to India later this month.<br />

India is a significant trade and export destination<br />

for a number of Saskatchewan’s key industries.<br />

In 2017, Saskatchewan was Canada’s<br />

top exporter to India, and India represented<br />

Saskatchewan’s third largest export market with<br />

a significant trade relationship. Over the past<br />

decade we’ve grown our India market by 94 per<br />

cent to $1.1 billion exported last year.<br />

Saskatchewan’s exports to India however have<br />

taken a direct hit since 2015, declining by 27 per<br />

cent. The Prime Minister’s recent trip to India<br />

was not successful in achieving the elimination<br />

Keep Saskatchewan<br />

Strong<br />

Provincial Budget 2017-18<br />

However, change<br />

seems to inevitably<br />

be needed to address<br />

the impact of emissions<br />

on climate, and<br />

Canada could be a<br />

leader in that process.<br />

There is much<br />

speculation that it<br />

will increase costs,<br />

and that does seem<br />

AG NOTES<br />

CALVIN DANIELS<br />

to be a reasonable expectation, at least in<br />

terms of upfront costs.<br />

11<br />

of trade barriers on Saskatchewan pulse crops.<br />

As part of a business delegation, Saskatchewan<br />

will work encourage investment and<br />

strengthen the relationship with this large trading<br />

partner.<br />

Saskatchewan, as an export-driven province,<br />

produces many of the products in demand<br />

around the world in industries like agriculture,<br />

oil and gas, and mining.<br />

Since 2007, Saskatchewan exports have<br />

grown by 46 per cent to $28.9 billion exported<br />

last year. In fact, Saskatchewan has the highest<br />

goods exported per capita of all Canadian provinces.<br />

The largest trading market for our nation and<br />

this province is the United States. Our interconnected<br />

economies see millions of dollars of<br />

goods cross the borders daily, benefitting businesses<br />

and consumers, and supporting jobs.<br />

While the new United States-Mexico-Canada<br />

Agreement will ensure continued access to U.S.<br />

markets for Saskatchewan products, protectionist<br />

threats from the U.S. administration remain.<br />

Our province continues to face the threat of<br />

tariffs on Saskatchewan softwood lumber and<br />

steel. This is in addition to the United States Department<br />

of Commerce’s spurious investigation<br />

of Saskatchewan uranium as a threat to U.S. national<br />

security, and possible tariffs that may arise<br />

from that investigation.<br />

Our government will continue to work with<br />

Ottawa to support the Canadian economy and<br />

this critical trading relationship, while supporting<br />

our own customers and connections in the<br />

United States to preserve Saskatchewan’s relationship<br />

with our largest trading partner.<br />

The Premier recently completed a trade mission<br />

to China. Unfortunately, Saskatchewan<br />

remains reliant on our federal government to<br />

negotiate international trade agreements, and<br />

Canada’s trade relationship with China has<br />

stalled as our country has not started formal free<br />

trade discussions as expected.<br />

The Government of Canada has also not<br />

indicated a willingness to expand uranium exports<br />

to China – an initiative that would benefit<br />

northern Saskatchewan miners and workers.<br />

Your Saskatchewan Party government will<br />

continue to stand up for Saskatchewan by standing<br />

up for the industries and jobs that provide a<br />

living for individuals and<br />

families across our great<br />

province. This means<br />

continuing to work with<br />

our partners and stakeholders<br />

at all levels in<br />

support of an even stronger,<br />

more diversified and<br />

globally-connected Saskatchewan.<br />

An Open Car off the Beaten Path<br />

For a guy who gets sunburned in the<br />

first seven seconds of June, I’ve<br />

always had the strangest attraction<br />

to open vehicles. I’m not talking about<br />

convertibles, either. I’m talking about<br />

full-blown, out in the elements, no roof<br />

at all type vehicles. British sports cars<br />

that didn’t come with the optional top<br />

and side curtains are cool. The Shelby<br />

Cobra is basically the same thing, only<br />

faster. The original Dodge Viper RT/10<br />

didn’t have a roof or side glass, in fact,<br />

I believe it was an aftermarket accessory.<br />

Sports cars aren’t the only ones that<br />

got that treatment, though. Off road<br />

vehicles without factory tops are a thing,<br />

too, and here in Saskatchewan, they just<br />

make more sense. My favourite Jeeps<br />

are the vintage ones that had no top,<br />

and just notches for a doorway, not an<br />

actual door. The old Volkswagen-powered<br />

glass-bodied dune buggies lacked<br />

a top and doors, as well. I’ve seen a pile<br />

of Chevy Blazers and Ford Broncos sell<br />

without the top included, and although<br />

they weren’t sold originally like that,<br />

they’re obviously still desirable that way<br />

today. The car in the picture, although<br />

equipped with a removable top, is still<br />

open and off-road inspired enough for<br />

me to think it’s pretty cool.<br />

The 1973 Autobianchi A1<strong>12</strong> Giovani is<br />

much more than just a name that drives<br />

my spell-checker nuts. Based on the Fiat<br />

<strong>12</strong>8, it was a showroom stock, fifty-eight<br />

horsepower, front-wheel-drive dune-ripping<br />

machine. Well, that might be a<br />

bit of a stretch, but the advertisement<br />

does show it parked on the beach. Built<br />

as a concept car, there wasn’t a second<br />

one, but I think they could have sold<br />

a few had they priced and promoted it<br />
