NEW CASH MACHINE<br />
AT AFFINITY CU<br />
NOKOMIS<br />
While other financial institutions<br />
are reducing services, Affinity<br />
Credit Union is expanding theirs<br />
- BY JENNIFER ARGUE, Local<br />
Journalism Initiative Reporter<br />
April 27th, 2023<br />
After nearly a year-long absence, Nokomis’<br />
Affinity Credit Union is getting a new<br />
cash machine.<br />
Melanie Mooney, an Advisory Services Manager,<br />
wrote to <strong>LMT</strong>, “Due to supply & demand shortage,<br />
we are now excited to let our membership know<br />
that an Affinity ATM Cash machine is now available<br />
for our Nokomis location.”<br />
The contract was up on the Credit Union’s previous<br />
white-label machine. Mooney said the new<br />
machine “will be ding free (no charge) to all Credit<br />
Union members.” and that it is a “Great benefit<br />
to Nokomis and the surrounding area to have<br />
access to cash seven days a week, 24 hours a day.”<br />
The Credit Union expects the machine to be available<br />
on <strong>May</strong> 3rd.<br />
Rhonda, General Manager at the Nokomis Hotel,<br />
was preoccupied with wing night when we spoke<br />
to her. She said they noticed the use of their atm<br />
machine had increased after the Credit Union<br />
removed theirs. When asked how she thought the<br />
return of the Credit Union would affect them, she<br />
said, “I have no idea.”<br />

Local wildlife event a<br />
success<br />
over $14,000 raised to fund habitat<br />
land trust, SWF programs and local<br />
clubs<br />
BY BOB WILSON, East Shore Wildlife Federation.<br />
April 21, 2023<br />
After a covid concern hiatus, the East Shore<br />
Wildlife Federation spring fundraising banquet<br />
returned to the Strasbourg hall on April<br />
1, 2023. The 180 presold tickets ensured a full house,<br />
and all enjoyed an excellent roast beef supper catered<br />
by Karen and Jay Wilker of D's Place.<br />
The antler and head display showed some very impressive<br />
local wildlife examples. East Shore member<br />
Brianna Yung spoke of her enjoyable time at the girl's<br />
youth conservation camp last summer at Candle<br />
Lake.<br />
The guest speaker was Darren Newberry from SWF<br />
head office in MooseJaw, in charge of habitat trust<br />
land acquisitions. He spoke of his time growing up in<br />
rural Saskatchewan and enjoying nature and hunting.<br />
Awards were given out for the years 2<strong>01</strong>9 thru <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
President Jason Bleau spoke about East Shore, activities,<br />
and SWF annual convention and the recognition<br />
that this club has contributed over $80,000 to the<br />
habitat trust land purchase program.<br />
The well-stocked silent auction tables, kids, ladies<br />
and two other full tables ensured a plentiful supply<br />
of raffle items. Due to the immense support from<br />
contributors and attendees, a net profit of just over<br />
$14,000 was raised. Funds will be spent on contributions<br />
to habitat land trust, SWF programs and local<br />
club needs. It was great to all get together again.<br />
$550,000.00 for world hunger projects and,<br />
with government matching, would near 2<br />
million dollars. He introduced the local group<br />
but also thanked all the other individuals and<br />
businesses that had helped out over the years.<br />
He told the meeting to expect a new large<br />
double-faced sign at the Highway 20 junction.<br />
We will be growing about 100 acres of peas a<br />
mile west of there. He then introduced Rick<br />
Block, the Saskatchewan Representative to<br />
the Canadian<br />
...goal of<br />
retaining the<br />
dignity of the<br />
participants...<br />
Foodgrains Bank.<br />
Rick thanked the<br />
local group for<br />
their many years<br />
of contributions.<br />
He spoke of the<br />
interdenominational<br />
cooperation<br />
in the project, the<br />
community spirit<br />
it reflects, as well as the enthusiasm and continuity<br />
of it. He said that in <strong>2022</strong> the CFGB<br />
had handled $52 million in programming and<br />
was projecting handling $76 million in 2023.<br />
He then introduced Pamela, a Kenyan lady<br />
from the Winnipeg office who is the coordinator<br />
there that facilitates Canadians visiting<br />
sponsored projects overseas as well as workers<br />
on projects who visit here to describe their<br />
work. She spoke of the Christian love of all the<br />
brothers and sisters sponsoring and working<br />
on the projects. She then introduced Mary<br />
Obiero from Kenya and the projects that she<br />
is involved with that are sponsored by CFGB.<br />
Mary said that she works with Christian<br />
World Service (CWS) which is a cooperation<br />
of 7 denominations. She described the<br />
drought emergency in the Horn of Africa as<br />
the worst in 40 years. She said in many areas<br />
of Ethiopia, Somalia and Kenya, there is no<br />
water or feed for the animals and little for the<br />
people who eke out a living herding animals.<br />
22 million are in food need, and 3 million are<br />
internally displaced. Her project feeds about<br />
81,000 in the Marsabit region of northern<br />
Kenya. Most of them are women and children.<br />
Mary also spoke of a long-term refugee<br />
program called “Seeds of Hope,” which they<br />
sponsor in a refugee camp. They try to grow<br />
vegetables to supplement the grain via a retained<br />
seed bank. She said a lot of their work<br />
involves helping people adjust and adapt to<br />
new conditions brought on by a shift in the<br />
climate. Examples given were the conversion<br />
of food sources such as goats to chickens and<br />
cattle to bees. They also try to foster ‘conservation’<br />
agriculture. All these projects are<br />
done with the goal of retaining the dignity of<br />
the participants and their involvement in the<br />
decisions made.<br />
A question period followed. She spoke of<br />
women hauling water on foot for as much as<br />
15 miles round trip on a daily basis. Water is<br />
being hauled into these cisterns and wells at<br />
an expense of $600 per 20,000 litres by the<br />
non-governmental organizations.<br />
Rick returned to thank Mary for sharing her<br />
first-hand experiences. He mentioned that<br />
the best way to help in this work was to get<br />
involved with the local project. Donations in<br />
funds or in-kind can be receipted. CFGB is<br />
in the top 10 charities for low administration<br />
costs with only 5-6 percent expenses. It also<br />
has one of the highest multiplier effects with<br />
$1. becoming $7-$8. in social benefit.<br />
Darryl Kerr thanked everyone for attending,<br />
especially the speakers who traveled so far to<br />
attend.<br />

The home is designed to blend seamlessly<br />
into its surroundings, with a<br />
warm, welcoming feel that invites you<br />
to relax and unwind.<br />
As you approach the home, the first<br />
thing you'll notice is the beautiful,<br />
vaulted carport that provides shelter<br />
for your vehicle while you unload<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
your groceries or luggage. The port<br />
cochere-style carport is a standout<br />
feature of the home, with its soaring<br />
ceilings and intricate wooden details<br />
that give it a distinctly artisanal feel.<br />
Once inside, you'll be greeted by<br />
a spacious entry air lock where<br />
the vaulted ceilings continue. Just<br />
through the sliding barn doors, the<br />
floor plan opens and seamlessly connects<br />
the living room, dining room,<br />
and kitchen. The space is flooded<br />
with natural light thanks to the many<br />
windows and sliding glass doors that<br />
line the walls, and the vaulted ceilings<br />
give the home an airy, spacious<br />
feel.<br />
One of the standout features of the<br />
home is the wood stove, which serves<br />
as a focal point for the living room.<br />
The stove is made from beautiful,<br />
high-quality materials, and its rustic<br />
charm adds to the overall feeling of<br />
warmth and comfort in the home.<br />
Another unique feature of the home<br />
is the dual master suites. Both suites<br />
are spacious and luxurious, with<br />
beautiful views of the surrounding<br />
landscape. Each suite has its own<br />
bathroom, with beautiful fixtures and<br />
finishes that reflect the craftsman<br />
style of the home.<br />
Throughout the home, you'll notice<br />
beautiful wooden details, from the<br />
exposed beams in the living room to<br />
the intricate trim work in the bedrooms.<br />
The natural materials used<br />
throughout the home give it a timeless<br />
feel that will never go out of style.<br />
Overall, this craftsman-inspired<br />
Building Centre<br />
one-story house plan is the perfect<br />
blend of elegance, simplicity, and<br />
comfort. From the vaulted port cochere<br />
to the dual master suites, every<br />

Arraez a big hit in<br />
both major leagues<br />
Luis Arraez may be the best hitter hardly anyone in North America<br />
knows about. His middle name is Sangel, but it may as well be<br />
Anonymous.<br />
April 23, 2023<br />
Avid baseball fans surely know about<br />
Arraez, because he won the American<br />
League batting championship last year<br />
with Minnesota Twins. In the off-season, he was<br />
traded to Miami Marlins, but he brought his bat<br />
along to the National League team and appears<br />
ready to accomplish a rare feat: Back-to-back<br />
batting titles in two different leagues.<br />
Only a few players, in the era going back more<br />
than half a century to the <strong>19</strong>70s, were<br />
so-called natural-born hitters. Only<br />
a handful could seemingly bat .340<br />
From or .350 without blinking, such as<br />
the Rod Carew, Wade Boggs, George<br />
Sidelines<br />
Brett, Larry Walker, Tony Gwynn<br />
BRUCE<br />
PENTON and Ichiro Suzuki. In the past<br />
50 years, pitchers have become<br />
dominant in the mano a mano battle<br />
with hitters. Need proof? In <strong>19</strong>87, for<br />
instance, major league batters hit a combined<br />
.261. Last year, that figure was .243.<br />
Thirteen batters in MLB history have won batting<br />
titles with an average over .400, with Ted Williams<br />
in <strong>19</strong>41 the most recent to do so. That’s 82<br />
years ago.<br />
Since <strong>19</strong>70, the highest winning batting average<br />
was Gwynn’s .394 in <strong>19</strong>94, but that season<br />
ended prematurely, on Aug. 12, because of labour<br />
problems. Since then, Brett hit .390 in <strong>19</strong>80 and<br />
Carew batted .388 in <strong>19</strong>77. Walker’s .379 in <strong>19</strong>99<br />
stands out. Suzuki and Todd Helton both hit .372<br />
to win batting titles since 2000.<br />
And now, it appears, Arraez is about to included<br />
in the unofficial list of natural hitters. In <strong>2022</strong>,<br />
Arraez won the A.L. batting title by hitting .316.<br />
The pitching-deficient Twins needed fresh arms<br />

(excluding Statutory Holidays)<br />
A bylaw pursuant to section 214 of The<br />
Municipalities Act has been passed and the<br />
assessment notices have been sent as<br />
required.<br />
and got them from Miami, but had to give up the<br />
A.L.’s best hitter to do so. Arraez’s batting title<br />
accomplishment was no fluke. In his first three<br />
MLB seasons, the Venezuelan posted batting<br />
averages of .334, .321 and .294.<br />
There has been no production reduction since he<br />
joined the Marlins. Through 20 games, Arraez<br />
was leading the majors with a .444 batting average,<br />
going hitless in only three of those games.<br />
His closest rival, Ronald Acuna, Jr., was a distant<br />
.375.<br />

• Wrote Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com about Arraez: “When<br />
Arraez goes up to the plate, he scans the infield to look<br />
for the gaps. His specialty is to dump line drives in front<br />
of the outfielders for singles. He rarely swings and misses,<br />
and he still has more career walks than strikeouts.”<br />
• Luis Arraez may be the most anonymous player bordering<br />
on superstardom who exists in Major League<br />
Baseball. Fans will be following his progress this season to<br />
see if his career .320 batting average has been a fluke, or<br />
just a harbinger of hits to come.<br />
• Comedy writer Gary Bachman: “Buccaneers unveil Baker<br />

in 12 years the weekend after the Masters drew its biggest<br />
audience in five years. America’s couches are getting<br />
a workout.”<br />
• Golden Knights Twitter feed after Mark Stone’s two goals<br />
led Vegas to a 5-2 win over Winnipeg Iets on April 20:<br />
“Nothing like getting Mark Stoned on 4/20.”<br />
• Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel: “Still can't believe<br />
the PGA Tour fined Rory McIlroy $3 million for withdrawing<br />
from the RBC Heritage – one of the tour’s mandatory<br />
‘designated’ tournaments. In related news, Brooks<br />
Koepka of the LIV Tour just found $3 million in his couch<br />
cushions.”<br />
• Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle: “Gad, what a<br />
horrible day. Lost my blue check and heard that the A's<br />
are NOT rooted in Oakland. Like learning that Santa Claus<br />
has joined the LIV Golf Tour.”<br />
• RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “UCLA and the USC ended<br />
their century-old affiliation with the PAC-12 to join the<br />
Big Ten. This reduces the west coast conference to the<br />
unPack 10.”<br />
• Headline at fark.com: ‘Ultramarathon runner banned for<br />

CALVIN<br />
DANIELS<br />
April 24, 2023<br />
Richardson International Limited announced a significant investment<br />
in their canola crush plant in Yorkton in 2021 to double its<br />
processing capacity to 2.2 million metric tonnes annually. Now<br />
Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC), has announced it will expand its canola<br />
crushing facility here. The facility's new capacity will be over two million<br />
metric tons, which is more than double its current capacity.<br />
Simply put, that means a massive amount of canola will need to be consistently<br />
grown in the years ahead within hauling distance of the two<br />
Yorkton-based facilities. That doesn’t ensure a reasonable return<br />
on the cost-of-production for farmers moving forward, but it<br />
does at least mean competition for canola with the plants<br />
situated roughly within a long stone’s throw from each other.<br />
When it comes to the future of canola, like many things, the<br />
crystal ball is rather cloudy. For example, a couple of weeks<br />
back, I wrote about plans stateside by Corteva Agriscience,<br />
Bunge and Chevron U.S.A. Inc. announcing a collaboration to<br />
produce winter canola in the southern United States. There is a<br />
belief there is potential to grow up to 10 million acres in that region<br />
within seven to nine years. Those new acres could be a game-changer in<br />
terms of canola supplies.<br />
There is the bio-fuels sector which could absorb added production, but<br />
governments are rattling sabres in ways that could thwart growth in<br />
that area. German environment minister Steffi Lemke says she will soon<br />
send proposals to the cabinet for the country to withdraw from the use of<br />
crop-based biofuel to achieve reductions in greenhouse gases. In the US,<br />
a recent government announcement indicated that the country will subsidize<br />
its biofuel producers with a blenders’ credit, but only for bio-fuels<br />
crushed or distilled in the United States. That is certainly a door closing<br />
for biofuel production in Canada with an export target of the USA.<br />
As usual, government protectionism can quickly muddy production<br />
markets, and let’s not forget the Canadian government looking at whether<br />
fertilizer use mandates are needed. While policy geared toward<br />
greenhouse gas emission reduction should generally be seen as positive,<br />
reducing fertilizer usage that would impact human food production and<br />
bio-fuel sources as well, should be far down any list in terms of new policy<br />
initiatives.<br />
Ultimately, Yorkton is a beacon in terms of future canola interest, but<br />
it will not necessarily be a smooth road on the way to the commodity’s<br />
future.<br />

The High Cost of a "Low"<br />
Carbon Footprint<br />
“Know Your Enemy” by Rage Against the Machine has one<br />
of the best opening guitar riffs of any song ever written. It<br />
grooves, then it hits hard. It’s angry, instantly recognizable, and<br />
unforgettable<br />
April 16, 2023<br />
I<br />
don’t agree with the<br />
band on a lot of topics,<br />
and even the subject<br />
matter of this song isn’t for<br />
everyone, but the<br />
message is clear:<br />
Know your<br />
Camshaft enemy. My<br />
Corner enemy? The<br />
KELLY KIRK electric car. I<br />
do a ton of research<br />
on electric<br />
cars now,<br />
probably as much<br />
as I do on gas-power, and<br />
tools or equipment. I don’t<br />
like them, I won’t like them,<br />
but I’m keep collecting facts<br />
so I can spread the word.<br />
Don’t get me wrong, all I do<br />
is research, not full blown espionage,<br />
as I’m not that cool.<br />
That being said, thanks to an<br />
article on ZeroHedge a couple<br />
of months ago, the word is<br />
being spread further.<br />
I’m not a fan of taxes, and I’m<br />
also not a fan of gaslighting,<br />
and I believe a carbon tax<br />
is both. Paying a bunch of<br />
money to make the weather<br />
better, so you can get some<br />
of that money back is a tricky<br />
circle meant to sow guilt<br />
and push an agenda. I’m old<br />
enough to remember both the<br />
GST and PST going down by<br />
a point or two, not disappearing,<br />
but putting more money<br />
in your pocket. Less tax, can<br />
you imagine that? Enter the<br />
electric car, the messiah of<br />
cost savings that also saves<br />
the planet at the same time,<br />
except it’s coming out that it’s<br />
not exactly going to be that<br />
way. California wants 35%<br />
of new vehicles sold for the<br />
2026 model year to be zero-emissions,<br />
and every new<br />
vehicle sold to be zero-emissions<br />
by 2035. That sounds<br />
great, except for the fact that<br />
The Resort Village of Grandview Beach<br />
PUBLIC NOTICE<br />
California can’t keep the<br />
lights on right now in a heat<br />
wave, and they recommend<br />
that if you’re running your air<br />
conditioner, don’t charge your<br />
electric car. Rolling blackouts<br />
are already common with just<br />
a small number of electric<br />
cars amongst a dense population.<br />
I heard a comparison<br />
just last night that charging<br />
an electric car is like running<br />
twelve refrigerators. That’s<br />
not an added stress on the<br />
grid in the summer, that’s<br />
beyond the breaking point.<br />
The article on ZeroHedge was<br />
a little misleading, but all<br />
the facts were there. In the<br />
fourth quarter of <strong>2022</strong>, it was<br />
cheaper to fuel a mid-level<br />
sedan than it was to charge<br />
a mid-level EV. On the upper<br />
end of luxury cars, however,<br />
the EV had the edge, and<br />
charged for less money, even<br />
commercially on public payper-charge<br />
stations. One fact<br />
that doesn’t go away, however,<br />
is insurance. I don’t have a<br />
clue what the insurance rates<br />
are for comparable gasoline<br />
and electric cars, but it seems<br />
so far that insurance companies<br />
are scrapping and auctioning<br />
damaged EV’s, as the<br />
repair bills are far too high to<br />
justify. Live in an apartment<br />
building or a condo? Some<br />

Ferne Senft, CAO<br />
have chosen to install EV<br />
charging stations and divide<br />
the cost amongst the tenants.<br />
Is that legal? I’m not a lawyer<br />
but I’d bet they’ve hired one<br />
before hiring the electrician.<br />
Am I concerned with the<br />
future? Not immediately.<br />
The car companies will bow<br />
down to the government the<br />
same way they do every time<br />
they want a bailout, and will<br />
switch to full EV on or before<br />
the deadline. I don’t buy new<br />
vehicles, anyways. Are you<br />
a little concerned? If so, I<br />
recommend maybe keeping<br />
a low-mileage car or truck<br />
kicking around for the future<br />
just in case. I would have<br />
written this article sooner,<br />
but I lost my footnotes in a<br />
stack of notes about big block<br />
parts and high-volume fuel<br />
pumps...<br />
