Fishing weekend set for Family DaySaskatchewan’s free

winter fishing weekend is February 13 to 15.

Saskatchewan residents and visitors can fish with-out a licence on any of Sas-katchewan’s public waters that have an open sport fish-ing season. “Ice fishing is a popular activity for many Saskatchewan people and is a great activity for families,” said, Herb Cox, Environ-ment Minister. “Coinciding with Family Day long week-

end, this is a great oppor-tunity for families to spend some time together while gaining a better appreciation for our environment and nat-ural resources.”

Residents are advised to always use caution and com-mon sense when ice fishing. Test the ice thickness before you travel on it. A minimum of 10 centimetres of good ice is required for walking.

All other fishing regula-tions remain in effect for

free fishing weekend, in-cluding possession limits and reduced limits on some lakes and rivers. Many of the rules that apply to summer angling apply to ice fishing as well. Consult the Anglers’ Guide for rules specific to ice fishing.

Free fishing weekend does not apply in national parks and anyone plan-ning to take fish out of the province must purchase a licence.

Making exercise funChantel Temple, a certified personal trainer, carefully helps stretch out the muscles of a group of children, during a cool down exercise as part of her Playful Fitness class. The Playful Fitness class will be open to other participants, ages three to five and their parents, at Queen Elizabeth School on Mondays at 5:30 p.m., running from February 22 to May 30.

Below average runoff predicted for provinceThe Water Security Agency released

the preliminary outlook for spring runoff. A below normal runoff is anticipated for most of the province, however it is still early and conditions can change over the remainder of the winter.

Saskatchewan has experienced a warm-er and drier than normal winter so far. Generally most of the province is looking at a below normal snow pack for this time of year.

Long range precipitation forecasts are difficult to rely on but most are calling for

near normal precipitation across Saskatch-ewan for February, March and April. All of these forecasts are also showing above normal temperatures for this three month period which could result in an earlier spring runoff.

Most reservoirs and dugouts went into winter at near normal levels and even with a below normal runoff, surface water sup-plies are expected to be adequate in 2016. For more information on spring runoff or stream flows and lake levels visit www.wsask.ca.

or influencing innovative initiatives, being progres-sive to employee needs and supporting the advance-ment and success of others.The Community Service award will be presented to a woman who as a volun-teer, mentors and inspires others through involvement in community programs and organizations. She should have a strong dedication to enriching the community.

The Exceptional Entre-preneur award will be pre-sented to a woman who has successfully launched a business, product or service and who remains active in business. She should pos-sess exceptional leadership, creativity and ingenuity and takes an innovative approach to solving a problem.

The Young Woman of Distinction award will be presented to an exceptional young woman between the ages of 18 and 30 who has made a significant con-tribution to the life of her community. She should demonstrate outstanding leadership and inspire her to follow her example.

Nomination forms for Women of the Year are avail-able at Prairie Sky Co-op Expressions Ladies Wear, located in the Metro Centre on Third Street.

Individuals or groups may nominate a woman for any or all of the four awards. Nominees must be living and reside in Weyburn, or within a 50 kilometre radius

of Weyburn. The deadline for nomination submissions is March 18. There will be a nominees tee held April 3, where all the nominees will be recognized for their con-tributions to Weyburn.

Luncheon tickets for the Women of the Year awards will be available starting April 4 for $30. They can be purchased from the Expres-sions location. Anyone who is nominated for a Women of the Year award will not have to pay for their luncheon ticket, due to sponsorship that provides for the cost.

“A committee will select four women from among the nominees to receive awards,” said Boehm. “The awards acknowledge the contributions of women and it provides us with an oppor-tunity to raise funds for two worthwhile areas of service: disadvantages women and children, and for hearing and speech impaired persons.”

The Women of the Year awards luncheon will be held Monday, April 18 at McKenna Hall. The keynote speaker is Natasha Vanden-hurk, CEO and part owner of Three Farmers Products.

Natasha began her ven-ture at Three Farmers at the age of 24 after graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from the Univer-sity of Saskatchewan.

Natasha and the team at Three Farmers are focused on creating natural, healthy foods and retailing these foods through health stores

and spe-c i a l t y s h o p s a c r o s s Canada. Natasha was faced with the challenge of getting a startup company off the ground at a very young age.

She faced an industry that she had very limited know-ledge about and was tasked with marketing and selling a brand new category of oils, completely unknown to the industry. These challenges forced her to become a very effective problem solver and efficient decision maker.

The core values behind the Three Farmers brand are value added agriculture, nat-ural and sustainable grow-ing, healthy and wholesome foods and traceable products. But the real emphasis of the brand is on the farming ex-perience, fostering close re-lationships with customers, and giving back to commun-ities in many different ways.

Quota International cele-brates its 97th anniversary in 2016. Quota Weyburn has been part of this network since 1954, serving the lo-cal community in a variety of ways. They have provided funding to the Weyburn Pub-lic Library Marlene Yurkow-ski Toy Lending Program, the Weyburn Special Care Home, Family Place, the Salvation Army, and also have donated of several FM Hearing Systems to schools, day cares, and long term care facilities.

REVEAL THE HARD FACTSAs it becomes harder to monitor technology that makes it easy for bullies to victimize others,

we are slowly losing the battle and sadly, it will be the victims who suffer the most.

Sabrina Kraft [email protected]

There is no greater shame to how blasé our soci-ety has become. There are so many people who have become so overexposed by negative influ-

ences — that it is no longer uncommon when you are faced with a difficult situation.

There are more and more families who are dealing with such raw and powerful emotions. The challenges they must face become a test, a roller-coaster of highs and lows that they must overcome.

Some families come out of the situation stronger, by supporting their child and opening conversations as a stronger family unit. Unfortunately, some families are unable to properly deal with the situation. Even more unfortunate, some families face a tragic loss.

Can you imagine being a parent, whose child is so victimized that they consider taking their own life? Can you imagine being a parent, whose child is the bully, and your first response is to blame the victim?

Can you imagine being a youth in today’s world when there is nowhere to be safe from the bullies? With the availability of almost soulless technology, anyone can attack you in the school, in the streets, even in your own home.

The victim is attacked with quick little jabs at their soul, aimed at making them doubt. Those words are not limited to verbal abuse either, as technology al-lows for a more indirect form of abuse through text messaging. You can be attacked by those texts at any time, at any hour. You feel powerless to do anything.

There is a growing issue in our community, and we are slowly losing the battle against those that bully. It is becoming harder and harder to monitor the technol-ogy that makes it so easy to victimize others. Thus, there are more and more victims who feel they are alone and have no one to turn to.

It also becomes difficult for the victim to come forward with their situation, when they feel marginal-ized or when victim-blaming occurs. Victim-blaming attitudes reinforce what the abuser has been saying all along; that it is the victim’s fault this is happening.

It is time for us to wake up and face the unpleasant reality that is right in our neighbourhood. That there are victims who need a voice to speak for them.

For those who are feeling lost, I truly hope they understand that there are places to turn to. There are a few places where they can turn, and by doing so keep their identity unknown. There are services such as Vic-tim Services through the Weyburn Police Service and the Envision Counselling and Support Centre.

There are those who are trained to handle crisis intervention, and who have access to services and counselling for those in need.

Also recently announced is a new Peer Support Pi-lot Project that will be offered at the Weyburn branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association. The goal of this project is to enhance the lives of those who are working through their own recovery as a victim.

It is becoming more and more important to find ways to support those who are the victims. To be their voice when they feel unable to speak. To be their strength when they feel unable to feel.

Last evening our community Cham-ber of Commerce celebrated its annual Horizon Business Awards, an event that’s been going on for over 20 years.

Since moving here in 2003, I think I’ve attended each of these special even-ings and always enjoyed them. This year, however, seemed a bit more special than usual. Although I can’t totally define the difference to myself, let alone anyone else, there seemed to be a fresh wave of enthusiasm and entrepreneurship evident in the room last evening.

Just a couple of factors that I believe are contributing to this new enthusiasm in the business community include an influx of young people with new and innovative ideas and a strong and growing emphasis on local food production.

It was exciting to see a number of awards handed out to people I’ve not seen on the podium before.

Having said that, the importance and strength of our established businesses cannot be overemphasized. Over the

years many companies, large and small, have employed local residents, supported community projects and provided retail and hospitality outlets for those of us liv-ing in this geographically isolated part of the West Coast.

I was thrilled to see the manager and owner of our longest operating grocery store win a major award. A heart-warm-ing letter of commendation from one of his employees was read aloud, evidence of the respect and appreciation he’s earned over the years.

All this made me think of every local church. Without the “birth” of new con-gregants, things can get pretty stale. No matter where, there will always be a need for new blood, new life and new commit-ments. In all of that, however, let’s never lose our appreciation and love for the solid foundation laid by those who have persevered and served faithfully through-out the years.

“Well done, good and faithful servant …” (Matthew 25:23).

Thanks for All You’ve DoneBy Linda Wegner

VIEWPOINTS!VIEWPOINTS!!this week 5A few months have passed since our federal election, and once again we

witness a universal phenomenon: the inability of people to keep their promises. Even if we assume that promises come from the best intentions, it is hard

to think of humans as habitual promise keepers. In fact, I will confess here and now that I am a horrible promise keeper! I have made promises that I fully in-tended to keep, but which I lacked the ability or fortitude to fulfill.

Having over-estimated my own abilities, I have naively committed to things I could never, or would never do.

Election campaign maneuver to shed some light on the promise-keeping problem. Each candidate makes promises, then tries to demonstrate their abil-ity to keep those promises by touting past accomplishments. If they have no political record, they draw upon their business credentials, their grassroots con-nection to the people, or their political ideology. They pull out every stop in order to bolster their believability while turning every stone to uncover their opponents’ lack of integrity.

All this is a kind of slight of hand to distract from two obvious issues. First, none of them has a perfect record in any sphere of life, let alone holding elected office, and second, none of them knows the future. Put another way, they lack both the history and the foresight to guarantee they can fulfill their promises.

The same is true of all of us. When God gave His law to the children of Israel, they made a big, audacious promise. They said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient” (Exodus 24:7b, ESV).

Somehow they thought that they could overcome their abysmal track record of disobedience by a sheer act of collective will; yet despite their best efforts to keep their promise, they failed miserably. Before long, “there arose a genera-tion after them who did not know the Lord or the work he had done for Israel” (Judges 1:1, ESV).

People break promises, but God does not. When people swore to keep God’s words, they entered a covenant, a binding agreement sealed in blood. Although they broke the covenant, as all people do, God did not leave them in despair. Instead, he himself made a new covenant with them, sealed in the blood of His only Son. He said, “I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people” (Jeremiah 31:33b, ESV). Our promises fail because our hearts are sinful and rebellious.

God’s promise is to change the hearts of those who trust in Jesus, and bring them into a new covenant that can never be broken. God has never failed in anything. He is absolutely reliable, and He has perfect knowledge of the future. I for one would rather trust Him than any human being, especially me!

Promises, Promises!By Pastor Harley Porter

Gospel of Grace Fellowship

Over the course of the last week, the Gold Wings have been working hard to gain momentum for playoffs.

We had two back-to-back games against the Regina Rebels, playing at home and in Regina. We came out of the double header with two wins.

Our away game in Regina was a hard fought battle that had to go into over-time to crown a winner, but in the end we were able to finish on top of the Rebels.

On the weekend most of our girls went to Zones for the Sask. First Pro-gram and represented our team well. They will be excitedly waiting the results of those who have been successful in moving to the next round.

We played our last regular season home game against Notre Dame on Tuesday night. During the game, all fans were encouraged to wear black and gold.

It has been crazy how fast this year has gone by already! As a team our goal is to win out our last three games and hopefully finish in third place for home ice advantage first round. Our plan is to win out in league play and earn our spot into the Esso Cup. It would be an exciting way to finish our season.

Remember to come out and get your Esso Cup tickets! They are still available at the Weyburn Review and Weyburn This Week office at 904 East Avenue. Continually, on Friday, February 12, we are volunteering our time at the Radville Nats game and are looking forward to getting out as a team and cheering them on. We are looking forward to selling 50/50’s, organ-izing a chuck a puck, selling door admission as well as working the con-cession. We will also be handing out Gold Wings stickers to all kids in the crowd.

We then have some time off for the February break. We will return mid-week and are looking forward to a fun exhibition game against the Peewee Gold Wings. These young minor hockey teams are extremely supportive of our team and we love having the opportunity to spend time with them.

Then on February 19 and 20, it will be back to action with our last league games in Swift Current. Swift Current is a strong team and will be coming out for the win. Keep reading for the results of those games!

The end of the road to the Esso Cup is near!

Diary from the IceWritten by Madi Solie of the Southern Range Gold Wings

“In a recent edition of the Vancouver Sun, it states that Syrian refugees will be paid a meal allowance per person per day of $15 for breakfast, $16 for lunch, and $30 for dinner by the Federal Government. Thus, a typical family with four kids will receive $186/day or $5,580/month for meals alone, and this from a gov-ernment that somehow can-not afford more than about $1,100/month for all ex-penses for pensioners.

No wonder that the gov-ernment is now admitting that this year’s deficit will be higher than the pre-election figure of $10 billion, but perhaps $25 billion!! “Hold on to your wallets”, the Lib-erals are back in town. For those of you seduced by the promises of “sunny ways”, reality is here, and we can look forward to higher taxes and a bigger overall debt.”

The above post was floating around social media at the end of 2015, so I felt I should do some investigating to see how accurate the post was.

At first look, I was shocked and frankly a bit frustrated. I thought, no wonder Canadians are upset with the whole refu-gee event.

What about us? What about the hard-working Canadians that actually live in this country? What about the Canadians who are struggling every day just to make ends meet? Shouldn’t we be taken care of first?

So I did what anyone would do when they are trying to find out the facts … I googled the article. According to the write-up in the December 14 Vancouver Sun by Tara Carman, the Immigrant Services Society of B.C. is pushing the federal government to use the Jericho military barracks as transitional housing for the thousands of Syrian refugees expected to ar-rive in Metro Vancouver in January and February.

“We’re being picky. We want hotels that have kitchenettes so people can cook. We want to have hotels, ideally, with more than 40 rooms because we want to centralize it as much as we can with a limited number of sites.

We’re looking at hotels in Vancouver, Richmond and Surrey currently,” explained Chris Friesen, settlement services dir-ector with the Immigrant Services Society of B.C.

Use of the Jericho bar-racks “would provide us with a whole bunch of beds that we don’t really

have right now,” Friesen said.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada spokeswoman Nancy Chan, in an emailed state-ment, identified six mil-itary bases in Ontario and Quebec that could be used as refugee reception cen-tres. She did not directly address the question of using Jericho, saying only that “no other (interim lodging sites) have been identified.”

It has been revealed that the federal govern-ment is seeking to book a swath of hotel rooms in Toronto and Montreal to accommodate the in-flux of Syrian refugees. Between now and March, Ottawa needs 300 rooms daily in each of the two cities to house about 600 refugees per night, ac-cording to a notice posted on a government procure-ment website. Suppliers will also be expected to provide meals.

The length of stays will vary: some will leave the next morning, others will need “two or more nights.”

Hotels will be expected to provide up to three meals a day. It states the government will reim-burse up to $15 per per-son for breakfast, $16 for lunch and $30 for dinner.

The government is also asking suppliers set aside rooms for two govern-ment representatives who will be on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the duration of the book-ings.

Chan said the govern-ment expects to spend $61 million to $77 million on overnight hotel accommo-dations and other activ-ities to welcome refugees when they arrive.

The government has said it plans to invest $678 million over six years toward the resettle-ment and support of Syr-ian refugees.

“They want to put them in Vancouver and they’re willing to cover the rent for a year, whatever the cost. But we’re saying you can’t do that because the fall would be too far after the one year, because you can’t go from a $3,000-a-month hotel in Vancouver to a $800 basement suite in Surrey.”

In a more recent arti-cle in the Regina Leader Post, world leaders have pledged more than $10 billion US to help fund schools, shelter and jobs for refugees from Syria’s civil war.

Wi th Fami ly Day around the corner, and Weyburn on the brink of bringing in refugees, I think we, as Canadians, need to put aside our feel-ings about these people who have not chosen the way of life that they have.

Whether we think they should be here or not, whether we are Christian or not, whether we are for or against refugees com-ing, I think at some point we need to ask ourselves, what kind of human be-ings are we? How can we be okay with people living in those conditions and not do anything about it? I think if we truly search inside, the answer is, we can’t.

What is Family?

Graham Slam added to the Dakota Dunes OpenEvent dates and sched-

ule information for the 2016 SIGA Dakota Dunes Open Graham Slam were recently released by Sport-Box Entertainment Group, in partnership with the Graham and Ruby DeLaet Foundation.

As the driving force behind the SIGA Dakota Dunes Open Graham Slam, the DeLaet Foun-dation will use the overall event week as a platform to raise funds in order to continue supporting local charitable organizations and community initiatives

across Saskatchewan.The Dakota Dunes Golf

Links in Saskatoon will play host to the ninth an-nual Mackenzie Tour-PGA Tour Canada event, sched-uled from Monday, June 20 to Sunday, June 26.

Graham DeLaet’s annu-al charity golf tournament, Graham Slam, will be in-tegrated into the Monday of the tournament. DeLaet will compete against three other celebrities in an ex-clusive “no ropes” exhib-ition golf match, cocktail reception, and live concert.

This intimate experi-ence, held at the Dakota Dunes Golf Links and Casino, will be limited to only a few hundred people — giving attendees a rare opportunity to get up close and interact with the four celebrities.

In the coming weeks, the Graham and Ruby DeLaet Foundation and SportBox Group will an-nounce the celebrities and musical act that will

be taking part in the Gra-ham Slam portion of event week. “Without this com-munity, we wouldn’t be in the position we are to be able to do something like this,” said DeLaet.

“Our goal is to sup-port children’s health and wellness causes, to raise awareness for our founda-tion, and for everyone to have a great time through-out the event week. I am also excited to bring three special guests to my home province — to show them a true prairie-style experi-ence and to help us achieve our donation goals.”

Since 2014, Graham Slam alone has raised over $600,000 in support of Sas-katchewan-based charities with a focus on supporting children’s health and well-ness and developing junior golf at all levels.

Last year, the Graham and Ruby DeLaet Foun-dation were able to grant three-year-old Clara (who is recovering from Type B

Acute Lymphoma Leuk-emia) her wish to visit Disney World, as well as covering the cost of her family’s accommodations at the Saskatchewan Ron-ald McDonald House so that they could stay near her while she is receiving treatments.

“The incredible support that Graham has received throughout his career — from an amateur golfer to a professional — is a testament to the people of Saskatchewan,” said Ruby DeLaet. “It just makes us that much more passion-ate about giving back to the community, knowing that it will continue to be paid forward.”

The event has become a fixture in the Saskatoon community and summer calendar, with the new pro-gramming only adding to the strong positive impact the tournament has had over its history.

The SIGA Dakota Dunes Open will begin with the Official Pro-Am on Tuesday, June 21, where participating teams will play alongside a Macken-zie Tour professional for 18 holes of premier golf.

Tournament action will include the first round of competitive play on Thurs-day, June 23, showcasing 156 international golfers, and will conclude on Sun-day, June 26 with the 2016 Champion being crowned.

The under-16 Weyburn Elite women’s volleyball team recently took first place in the fourth tier of the fourth annual Jordan Zacha-rias Memorial tournament. The tournament was held in Saskatoon and Warman on the February 5 to 6 week-end, by Sask. Volleyball.

There were 72 girls teams in the under-14 girls and under-16 girls div-isions who took part from across the province as well as Manitoba. In the first tier of the under-16 women’s category, the Prince Albert Optimist Toppers En Fuego topped the Westman Wave from Brandon 25-23 and 25-16 to win. The Regina CVC defeated the Saskatoon Smash 25-22 and 25-17 to win the bronze.

Teams that competed in the fourth tier, where the Weyburn Elite captured

first place, included the Martensville Outerlimits Blue, Warman VC, Regina QCVC Purple Fury, Anna-heim ECVC Fusion, Regina QCVC Blackout, Saskatoon CBR Ignite and Regina QCVC Smash.

Strategic planning priority for farms

By Rachel Kraynick PAgRegional Farm Business Development Specialist,

YorktonFarming is often a

family business where spouses, children, and multi-generational family members work and live together. The needs of the farm business and family unit constantly interact with one another.

This reality challenges the team to maintain a bal-ance between the needs of the farm and the family. Each area is important with unique and different needs.

This is why strategic planning for multi-gener-ational farms is extremely beneficial and is a process that can actually strengthen the family enterprise and extend its lifespan.

Strategic planning in-volves conducting a SWOT analysis which is an as-sessment of your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats as a business, as well as setting short and long term farm and family goals. Goal setting is a powerful process for think-ing about your ideal future, and for motivating yourself to turn your vision of this future into reality.

A useful way of making goals more powerful is to use the SMART mnemon-ic. All goals should follow the “SMART” guidelines, which are: S — Specific (or Significant); M — Measurable (or Meaning-ful); A — Attainable (or Action-Oriented); R — Realistic (or Rewarding); and T — Time-bound (or Trackable).

Although profitability is important to any operation, your goals may also relate to things like innovation, employee retention, suc-cession strategies, or any-thing that is important to enhancing your business. Here are three reasons why you should be setting goals on your family farm:

Measure SuccessGood businesses should

always be trying to im-prove, grow, and become more profitable. Setting goals provides the clearest way to measure the success of the farm.

When you are looking at your farm from a three- or five-year perspective, you are looking beyond the day-to-day tasks on the farm and instead taking a much more macro view, which allows you to see the farm from a competitive or economic perspective.

Team Cohesion Strategic planning is

often a process that asks for everyone’s input, a place where everyone’s opinions and suggestions are heard and valued, and an oppor-tunity to open up the lines of communication which ultimately leads to “buy in” from everyone involved in the process.

The process that stra-tegic planning uses, ensures that everyone understands what the prize is at the end of the day and what everyone is ultimate-

ly working towards. When everyone on your

farm team clearly under-stands what you are trying to accomplish, it provides greater rationale for the decisions you might make regarding hiring, equip-ment purchases, acquisi-tion of land, or any other financially-driven deci-sion. This will eliminate a lot of the uncertainty that goes with not understand-ing the goals of the farm.

Knowledge Is PowerWhen your goals have

been defined, you can de-velop a deeper understand-ing of the effects of daily decisions and how they play against the strategic goals. For example, when you have a budget that con-siders revenue to expenses, you will better understand the implications of a major purchase. The more you know, the better decisions you can make.

Gold extraction research at the University of Sask.

University of Saskatch-ewan (U of S) professor Stephen Foley and his team appear to have the midas touch when it comes to gold extraction research.

Foley, an associate pro-fessor in the Department of Chemistry, along with re-search associate Loghman Moradi and PhD student Hiwa Salimi, have discov-ered a new financially vi-able and environmentally friendly way to recover and recycle gold from electron-ic waste.

“We’ve found a simple, cheap and environment-ally benign solution that extracts gold in seconds, and can be recycled and re-used,” said Foley.

“This could change the gold industry.” The biggest issue with gold is it is one of the least reactive chem-ical elements, making it difficult to dissolve, Foley explained.

The common practice of mining for gold cre-ates environmental issues because it requires large amounts of sodium cyan-ide. Meanwhile, recycling gold from electronic scraps like computer chips and circuits involves processes that are costly and have en-vironmental implications.

“The environmental ef-fects of current practices can be devastating,” said Foley, noting that the world produces more than 50 million tons of electronic waste per year and 80 per

cent of that winds up in landfills.

What his University of Saskatchewan research team has discovered is a process using a solution — acetic acid combined with very small amounts of an oxidant and another acid — that extracts gold efficiently and effectively without the environmental concerns of current indus-try practices. In this tech-nique, the gold extraction is done under mild condi-tions, while the solution dissolves gold at the fastest rate ever recorded.

“Gold is stripped out from circuits in about 10 seconds, leaving the other metals intact,” Foley said.

Foley said it requires 5,000 litres of aqua regia to extract one kilogram of gold from printed cir-cuit boards, none of which can be recycled. With the new U of S solution, one kilogram of gold can be extracted using only 100 litres of solution, all of which can be recycled over again. The overall cost of this solution is only 50 cents a litre.

With lower toxicity, cheaper cost and quicker extraction, Foley’s team has discovered an approach that could revolutionize the industry and be a veritable gold mine, so to speak. The next step for Foley and his team is to move the process into large-scale applica-tions for gold recycling.

Online inspection is available for care homes

Saskatchewan residents can now access improved personal care home inspec-tion information on www.Saskatchewan.ca.

The new electronic (tab-let) reporting system for inspectors ensures more ac-cessible, detailed reports re-garding personal care homes are available to the public — a recommendation which was previously made by both the Provincial Auditor and the Saskatchewan Om-budsman.

“Our government is committed to transparency,” said Dustin Duncan, Health Minister. “This new system ensures the most up-to-date information on personal care homes is easily available on-line, helping individuals and their families research and select a home that will be suitable for them and best meet their needs.”

Personal care homes are privately owned and oper-ated businesses that are li-censed and monitored by the Ministry of Health.

A team of specially-trained personal care home consultants regularly in-spect facilities looking at a number of areas including resident care, care records, recreational activities and health and safety.

Reports using the new system reflect a wider range of information, including the homes’ licensing con-ditions, the most recent re-sults of their inspection, and

the number of outstanding issues. Additional informa-tion on each home is also available, such as the ap-proximate monthly cost, number of beds, contact in-formation and location.

The use of this new tech-nology also improves track-ing of inspection results and corrective actions, and makes reporting more ef-ficient. It will replace the need for hand-written paper reports, eliminating the need for time-consuming tran-scription, bringing more consistency to reporting, and supporting timely up-dates to the website.

Since September 2015, approximately 20 per cent of personal care homes in the province have been in-spected using the electronic reporting tool.

The remaining personal care homes inspected prior to September 2015 are avail-able as PDFs. Electronic re-ports of personal care homes will be updated on the new site as new inspections are completed.

There are currently 245 personal care homes in oper-ation across the province that provide lodging, meals, and assistance with, or supervision of, daily living and personal care. Personal care homes are different from long-term care homes which are part of the pub-licly-funded health system and typically serve residents with greater care needs.

Stories of Courage highlighted during Black History month

The Government of Can-ada’s 2016 theme for Black History Month is “A Story of Courage” — providing the opportunity to gain in-sights from Black Canadians and the countless ways that Black history has shaped Canadian society, values, identity and institutions.

“The Canadian Race Re-lations Foundation values Black History Month as a vital catalyst for learning from and about the legacy and continuing contribu-tions of Black Canadians,”

said Albert Lo, chairperson of the Canadian Race Rela-tions Foundation. “It raises a crucial awareness that is and should be sustained through-out the year.” The Canadian Race Relations Foundation’s founding chair, the late Lin-coln Alexander, exempli-fies this theme of courage throughout his illustrious career of ‘firsts.’ In his mem-oir “Go to School, You’re a Little Black Boy”, Alexan-der shared his perspective on racism. “Racism is, simply, a product of ignorance, but

I am an optimist and have seen great strides taken to-ward eradicating that evil.”

The Canadian Race Rela-tions Foundation’s 150 Stor-ies initiative recognizes the contributions of trailblazers such as Lincoln Alexander and Viola Desmond, as well as contemporary leaders and role models, including Jean Augustine, H. Oliver, Bob Dawson, Donald Jean and Orlando Bowen.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Govern-ment of Canada’s official

recognition of February as Black History Month. The recognition came to be after Ontarian Rosemary Sad-lier, president of the Ontario Black History Society, intro-duced the idea of having the month recognized across Canada. In a video on the “Voices Into Action” web-site, Jean Augustine speaks about her experiences as Canada’s first Black female Member of Parliament. She will also be profiled in a new story this month, as part of 150 Stories.

Dear Reena,I own two very furry

cats. I always put the toilet seat down when the toilet is not in use, but when I lift up the seat it is cov-

ered with fur. Seems like the fur is attracted to the seat, do you have any tips for how to stop the mess? Nadine.Dear Nadine,

Wipe the toilet seat with a fabric softener sheet, the fur will not be attracted to the area. You can also wipe the outer portion of the toilet with

either liquid fabric soft-ener (and rinse) or white vinegar, to deter fur cling.Hi Reena,

I know that you are a big fan of baking soda. I have another use for bak-ing soda. I use it to cure my hiccups, but the taste isn’t to my liking. Do you have any other sugges-tions for curing hiccups? Arden.Dear Arden,

Baking soda is one of those underappreciated products that I lovingly refer to as a Household Superstar! It helps deodor-ize, unclog drains, remove stains, cure bad breath and the list goes on and on.

However, when i t comes to curing hiccups my favorite solution is water (although 1 tsp. of peanut butter or Nutella chocolate spread are also fast and effective but the hiccups tend to return). I received this tip from a re-tired school teacher and it works great!

Using your hands, plug your ears and nose. Have someone hold a cup of water to your mouth. Take 12 sips of water and the hiccups will often vanish!

A new book, tracing the history of amateur sport in Saskatchewan, has recently hit the shelves. The book, authored by Lynn Gidluck and published by Coteau Books, tells the story of how the amateur sport federation in Saskatchewan came to be in a position to run the prov-incial lottery and work with the volunteer sport, culture and recreation sectors to oversee distribution of lot-tery revenues.

“In Saskatchewan the government had the fore-sight to create an innovative funding model for amateur sport, culture and recrea-tion,” said Todd Fuchs, president of Sask Sport Inc.

“This book traces the history of the amateur sport system in our province, how early sport leaders secured the lottery as a fundraiser, and the impressive results that been achieved over the years.”

Since 1974, the prov-incial government has li-censed Sask. Sport to act as the sales and marketing arm with the Western Canada Lottery Corporation. “This book shares the story of how and why Saskatchewan does things differently and how this approach has benefited our communities and is the envy of other jurisdictions around the world,” said Fuchs.

Ian Cook served as

president of Sask. Sport in 2007-08. He was chair of the volunteer committee that helped find someone to write the book and provided support and direction for the research.

“I was quite active in the amateur sport community before I joined the board of directors of Sask. Sport,” said Cook.

“I knew that funding from the provincial lottery supported sport, culture and recreation but I didn’t know that the sport federation operated the lottery.” Cook said he had a hunch there was a really good story to be unearthed.

“I was right,” said Cook. “This book tells a story about innovation and what happens when you empower citizens to develop policy and create programs that re-spond to needs in their com-munities.” Fuchs and Cook both believe that one of the most interesting chapters in the book is the one that de-tails the origins of programs like KidSport that have been put in place to try to make amateur sport accessible to everyone who lives in our province.

All proceeds from the sale of the book will be directed to KidSport.

Proceeds from Saskatch-ewan Lotteries fund more than 12,000 sport, culture and recreation groups.

New Habitat home for Moose Jaw family

A Moose Jaw Habi-tat for Humanity partner family will soon improve their quality of life through home-ownership.

The province, through Saskatchewan Housing Corporation, is contribut-ing $65,000 in financial support toward the home, located at 810 Ominica Street East. The home will consist of a 1,000 square foot (93 square metres) four-bedroom bungalow.

“Our government is pleased to support Habitat for Humanity’s efforts of making affordable home-ownership a reality for another Saskatchewan family,” said Greg Law-rence, MLA for Moose Jaw Wakamow, speaking on behalf of Donna Harpauer, Social Services Minister and Minister responsible for Saskatchewan Housing Corporation.

“Each Habitat for Hu-manity build is an out-standing example of how residents and businesses come together to make our community a great place to live, work and raise a family in Saskatchewan.”

“We are thrilled to have the Moose Jaw Chapter building again in 2016,” said Kelly Holmes-Binns, Chief Executive Officer. for the Habitat for Human-ity Regina.

“We have a great volun-teer board and build staff here. They are doing an

amazing job and through their efforts, I couldn’t be happier to welcome an-other Habitat family as our newest Moose Jaw home-owner.”

Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization working toward a world where everyone has a safe and decent place to live. The organization mobilizes volunteers and partners to build homes that provide families of low-income with access to affordable home-ownership.

Habitat’s innovative delivery model provides opportunities for families to stabilize their housing, and to achieve their home-ownership goals. Each partner family selected by Habitat contributes 500 partnering hours in build-ing their home, or other Habitat homes.

Since March 2009, the province’s overall com-mitment to Habitat totals $7.85 million.

This funding supports builds in 13 communities across the province in-cluding Duck Lake, Fort Qu’Appelle, Humboldt, Lloydminster, Melfort, Moose Jaw, Nipawin, the Battleford region, Prince Albert, Regina, Saskatoon, Weyburn, and Yorkton.

The Reunion 2016 will be held July 28 to August 1. According to most recent information from their web-site, there are now 1,152 people who are registered for the event.

“In looking at the names of the people on the Fa-cebook page, we noticed some very common names to Weyburn,” said Bryan Onstad, one of the Reunion

2016 organizers.The list includes 24

Andersons, 22 Giroux, 21 Johnstons, 21 McLeods, 20 Schmidt, 19 Bell, 18 Hill, 17 Sidloski, 16 Neuberger, 16 Maas, 16 Wagner, 14 Hill-stead, 14 Williams, 14 Mc-Fadden, and 14 Looses.

“Family is one of the themes for Reunion 2016 as there will be a ‘Movie in the Park’ at Jubilee Park on July 29,” said Onstad. There will be a family pool party at the Weyburn Pool on July 31.

Trenna Keating, Wey-burn Comp alumni who graduated in 1996, and a Canadian actress who ap-

peared in such shows as De-fiance, Schitt’s Creek, and Murdoch’s Mysteries, will be helping to host the Friday night show.

“I’m looking so forward to attending the Reunion 2016,” said Keating. “To have an event like this that includes such a large group of people and lets us cele-brate our school, our friend-ships (past and present) and our Weyburn community is tremendously exciting. I can’t wait to come home!”

The Friday and Saturday Reunion 2016 events will be held at the Weyburn Comp and Cugnet Centre.

Cookies for Valentine’s DayA group of Grade 3-4 girls enjoy learning about how to make cookies for Valen-tine’s Day coming up, dur-ing an after-school cooking club at Assiniboia Park Elementary School. The teacher explained the bak-ing steps including making and rolling out the dough, cutting out heart shapes and putting red sprinkles on top before baking them.

Vehicle registration now onlineSGI is enhancing con-

venience for customers with changes to vehicle registration certificates.

Vehicle registrations can now be printed on plain white paper rather than special green card stock paper. This means custom-ers who register a vehicle using SGI’s online service MySGI will no longer have to wait for their registration certificate in the mail — they can print it at home.

Any customer with a MySGI account can also

access their registration certificate online, and print it off at any time — even if they didn’t renew online.

The registration certifi-cate is also changing. The customer’s address will no longer be printed on it.

This is a deterrent against potential criminal activity — an SGI survey found that 61 per cent of respondents leave their registration cer-tificate in the glove box of their vehicle. If a vehicle is broken into and the address is noted on the registration

this, often combined with the availability of a garage door opener, provides op-portunity for thieves.

Customers who visit a motor licence issuer in per-son to register their vehicle will also receive the regis-tration certificate on plain white paper, once existing green card stock paper is used up. It’s estimated the change to plain white paper will save SGI $120,000 an-nually in paper costs and up to $400,000 annually in postage costs.

Increased provincial funding for hearing loss employment program

There will be increased services for both individ-uals and employers to assist people living with hearing loss. The Saskatchewan Deaf and Hard of Hear-ing Services (SDHHS) will receive $385,088 in fund-ing from the Government of Saskatchewan to deliver its Vocational Counselling, Disabilities and Employ-ment Supports program.

Established in 2010, the program offers a range of services.

“Saskatchewan Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services work to remove barriers to employment, and provide individuals the supports they need to participate in the province’s labour market,” said Jeremy Harrison, Im-migration, Jobs, Skills and Training Minister.

Saskatchewan Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services, through their no-fee Vo-cational Counselling, Dis-abilities & Employment Supports program will offer support to 85 individuals with any and all degrees of hearing loss. For more information, visit the Sas-katchewan Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services website at www.sdhhs.com.

Honey, I thinkitʼs time to buy

a family car

How can you tell if it’s time to up-size your car? Maybe some of these scenarios sound familiar:

• The dog has to sit on someone’s lap during family road trips.• When you go to back out of the driveway, all you can see in your rearview mirror are the tousled heads of your three teenaged boys.• It’s your turn again for your daughter’s dance class carpool, and you know she really shouldn’t be sitting in the front seat to make room for the others in the back.

• The baby’s new sporty stroller doesn’t quite fi t into the trunk, no matter which way you turn it.

All in all, it’s understandable that you’re beginning to feel a little cramped. Buying a larger vehicle that can accommodate all the family is an inevitable step in the lives of many households, whether be cause of a growing family or simply be cause you haul a lot of stuff around.

To meet the evolving needs of your busy family, why not look for a vehicle with more than fi ve seats and lots of storage space. The latest minivan models offer a wide range of practical and handy options that are perfect for your daily reality. These vehicles are also more stylish than ever before. In fact, many car makers have revamped their models in this category to appeal to the many different needs of 21st-century families. You’re in for a surprise, and you’ll love it.

Soil contents may affect planting seasonBy Sherri Roberts

Weyburn Crops SpecialistAs a new planting sea-

son approaches, decisions regarding what crops will be planted and where they will be planted are being made. A wide pool of sci-entific literature is piling up on the connection between a healthy population of ar-buscular mycorrhizae in your fields and increased yield. Arbuscular mycorrhi-zal (AM) fungi form a close interaction with plant roots.

Studies show they im-prove the uptake of nutrients such as Nitrogen, Phos-phorus, Zinc and Copper

in soils that are deficient in these elements. Data also exists which indicates that the pathogen protection benefits of AM fungi might be as significant as the nu-tritional benefits to many plants. Crop rotations will affect AM species diversity and some studies also show certain pesticides can have a detrimental effect on AM and interfere with nodula-tion formation. The num-ber of different AM fungi species varies with the type of crop and the crop rota-tion. Crops that belong to the Brassicaceae (canola),

Chenopodiaceae (quinoa) and Caryophyllaceae (buck-wheat) families do not form associations with AM fungi.

It has been suggested that including non-mycorrhizal crops in rotation might affect the concentration and viabil-ity of indigenous AM fungi in soil thereby affecting the growth of AM-dependent crops following in the rota-tion. It has been reported that both the growth of corn including shoot weight, grain yield and AM forma-tion were enhanced when the previous crop formed mycorrhizae. On the other

hand, canola has been re-ported to inhibit AM fungal growth. AM fungi coloniza-tion of flax was 3.5% larger after wheat (a highly mycor-rhizal crop) than when can-ola was the previous crop. Seed yield of flax was in-creased by threefold when grown after safflower versus a flax after flax rotation.

Continuous monocul-tures can both decrease populations of AM spores as well as shift the AM spe-cies composition of the community toward species which may not be beneficial to the crop. Studies done on

corn and soybeans both indi-cate that certain AM fungi species that become numer-ous with continuous mono-cultures may contribute to the yield declines over time noted for such crops.

The percentage of roots that are mycorrhizal is low in young plants but later in-creases to a high level.

In soybean the rapid in-crease in mycorrhizae be-gins as the third trifoliate leaf becomes fully expanded and continues until about 8-12 days before flower-ing in field-grown plants, and until early pod stage in

plants grown in controlled environments.

Inoculum of AMF exists in soil in three forms: spores, soilborne hyphae and col-onized roots. The presence of non-mycotrophic plants, such as members of the Cruciferae, (such as canola) decreases the inoculum of AMF. As AM fungi form there beneficial relationships with live plant roots, studies have shown fallowing land substantially reduces their numbers. In fact, this reduc-tion has been shown to be as great as forty percent with just one season of fallow.
