Big plans ahead

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

Last week was Tourism Week in Saskatchewan, and in light of that fact the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce invited Pat Fiacco, CEO of Tourism Saskatchewan, to the city to speak about plans to make the province a vaca-tion destination.

Tourism Saskatchewan has recently become a crown corporation, and Fiacco admits that many regions have had con-cerns about the new arrangement. He says that while he under-stands trepidation towards change, they have been working with operators throughout the province to help market the different destinations and find ways to help sell different regions of the province.

One of the success sto-ries has been in Cypress Hills, he says, where the region has developed a website where people can set up vacation packages and easily find different activities to do in the region. He says the result of this is that people spent a longer time and more money in the region, as well as having a more rewarding vacation as they can access the dif-ferent activities in the region easily. He says he hopes to see this become a model for more regions, to effectively sell every-thing they have to offer.

Among the new initia-tives that Tourism Saskatchewan has to tackle is to make people r e a l i z e t h a t Saskatchewan is a vaca-tion destination.

Deputy Leader of the NDP and finance, economy and government relations critic Trent Wotherspoon was recently in Yorkton to discuss what the issues are for the city and the region with the Mayor and City Council. Wotherspoon says that one of the main problems cities are facing, including Yorkton, is the pressures of growth. With those pressures there needs to be provin-cial support to allow cities to grow and remain up to date into the future. “A lot of the financial strains and pres-sures are placed on the municipalities, that have to renew and replace the old infrastructure and also grow and expand their communities by servicing new lots. Right now there’s not any dedicated fund-ing for infrastructure in the province, and there’s not a partnership program in place, so that’s something we’ve been advocating as the NDP and something I heard here

today that’s really important,” Wotherspoon says. Another thing he sees as necessary is a commitment to a timeline for a new hospi-tal in the city. He says that with the build-ing reaching the end of its lifespan, which means that there needs to be certainty on what the next steps for the facility will be. He says that the government needs to be working directly with the health region and community to set down some time-lines and commitments to make sure that the new facility can be delivered soon and meet the needs of the region well into the future. He also says that with the NDP’s current platform emphasizing senior’s issues, a new regional health centre is a key part of this region’s senior care. “These are the kinds of investments that we need to be making now. This is about smart growth and responsible growth, and as New Democrats this is the kind of investment that we see as being impor-tant.” Education is another area where the

NDP has placed its focus, and Wotherspoonsays that there needs to be more fundingfor education, especially for services likeeducational assistants. He says that withgrowing enrollment, attention needs to befocused on funding and class sizes, toensure these new students can get theeducation they need. This area does have a bright spot in edu-cation, he says, and that’s the recentlyannounced Parkland College Trades andTechnology Centre. Wotherspoon says thatthe new facility is something his party hassupported for a long time, because it is animportant step towards filling a deficit inskills training around the province. He says that the NDP will continue tofocus on their priorities of improvingsenior’s care, education and governmentaccountability into the future. This stopwas part of an overall summer tour to seewhat is important across the province, andit has emphasized the need to ensure pro-vincial government support of growingmunicipalities.

Last year, the City of Yorkton, the Yorkton Business Improvement District and the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery started the Crosswalk Art proj-ect, debuting three designs on the city’s streets to raise awareness and draw attention to the city’s crosswalks. In its second year, the gallery is launching the Crosswalk Design competition, solic-iting the community to contribute to the next round of designs. “We’re trying to get new ideas for crosswalk designs, and we’re adding to the idea that people will talk about crosswalks and think about them,” says Donald Stein, Executive Director of the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery. The contest runs the month of June, with around 20 entries already collected since the contest launched. An early favor-ite, Stein says, is the “tango steps” design, which features feet in a dance pattern on the reg-

ular crosswalk stripes. Stein says that the con-test is the fun part of the design process, collecting different ideas and seeing what the community can create to make the cross-walks more interesting. The challenge that fol-lows will be taking the winning design and turn-ing it into something that works, with the ultimate goal of having a new design in the mixture. “It has to translate into something that works on the pavement, and then it has to work with the color choice you have, which is no choice. And then the stencils have extra lines here and there to give them structure, so the design that looks really great on the computer might not look really great on the ground. We went through a couple dozen ideas last year to arrive at three that worked.” The initial project last year did see the designs fade, and Stein says that the plan is to use more durable paints to get the designs to last longer, but they will still need to be

painted annually like most road markings. Stein says people noticing the deterioration of the first year’s painting is a mark of the program’s success, but that they hope this year’s cross-walks stay longer. “People paid so much more attention to them because they were look-ing at the innovative designs. If the crosswalks went down and disap-peared in a week we would hardly notice, but because everybody was looking at them you could see the tire tracks, the deterioration, the uneven paint surfaces. I know a lot of people commented that they disappeared quickly last time, and I heard a very strong response from the city crews that they learned from last year too, and this time they’re putting them down differently. It’s a different paint, and it’s supposed to be more durable.” Anyone with an idea is invited to contribute, and Stein says the easiest way to do so is to connect through the gallery’s Facebook page at https://w w w . f a c e b o o k . c o m /GodfreyDeanArtGallery.

LOCAL LOTTO LUCK – The first clue Loralei McCallum had about her six-figure lottery win was from the radio in her car. “I was running errands on Saturday and heard that there was a Saskatchewan winner on EXTRA,” she recalls. She carried on with her day, not realizing that she had won $250,002 on the May 17 EXTRA draw! At 11:30 p.m. that night, McCallum decided to check her $5 WESTERN MAX ticket with EXTRA ‘ENTERED’ on line. “I always check the EXTRA first and then check the rest of my ticket,” she said. Her ticket exactly matched all seven digits to win the game’s top prize! Her husband was at work, so she called him and told him that they had won. When he came home the next morning he checked the numbers online. “It is very exciting and unbelievable that this could happen,” she says. In fact, her ticket had won $250,002. The $2 was for matching three numbers on WESTERN MAX. McCallum plans to finish some renovations on her home more quickly and to help her family. She bought her winning ticket at Kahakawistahaw Gas & Convenience Store located at 500 Broadway St. in Yorkton.

SLOW DOWN FOR SAFETY – Yorkton’s emergency personnel were called to the scene of an accident recently that fortunately looked worse than was the actual outcome. A collision between a car and a van resulted in the van rolling onto it’s roof along Darlington Street. The occupants of both vehicles were okay.

Sask. bird input sought Saskatchewan is moving forward in efforts to monitor its upland game bird population. The seven species to be monitored are the gray partridge, ring-necked pheas-ant, ruffed grouse, spruce grouse, wil-low ptarmigan, rock ptarmigan, and Saskatchewan’s provincial bird, the sharp-tailed grouse. There has been little research con-ducted on game bird populations in Saskatchewan during the past decade, aside from anecdotal reports. “Upland game birds are an impor-tant part of the Saskatchewan ecosys-tem and it is time we understood more about their populations in order to make better-informed wildlife manage-ment decisions to ensure our environ-ment is healthy and that our resources are protected for future generations,” Environment Minister Ken Chevelday-off explains. Hunters, stock growers, landowners,

birders, interested groups and individu-als are invited to participate in the Sas-katchewan Upland Game Bird Survey. Each time an individual or group of the specifi ed birds is observed, participants are encouraged to fi ll out and submit the form that can be accessed at www.envi-ronment.gov.sk.ca/gamebirdsurvey. “Monitoring is a valuable tool for as-sessing the impact of changes in weath-er, habitat and the normal fl uctuations in species,” Cheveldayoff adds. “This is a good example of our shift to a results-based approach that ensures that the ministry is able to balance environmen-tal protection with promoting the sus-tainable use of natural resources.” The results of the survey will assist the ministry in developing a manage-ment plan for upland game birds in Sas-katchewan. More information about the Ministry of Environment surveys can be viewed at www.environment.gov.sk.ca/wildlife.

THE NEWS REVIEW

Creating a more inclusive Sask.

In the end, whether we decide as a nation to allow it, or we don’t, it’s clear something has to be done to help ease suffering and ensure Canadians get the care they need. Quebec is reopening a long time debate that has stirred plenty of controversy across the country and it’s not a topic that’s going to see everyone in agreement at this point in time either. “Right to die” legislation is back on the table and if the province of Quebec gets its way, “human euthanasia” will become legal. If the bill passes, it will be the first of its kind in Canada. If you ask me, if a person is slowly dying, suffering, in constant pain with no way to find relief, why can’t they have the option of going quietly? There would have to be rules of course and it’s not something to be taken lightly but that’s all a part of the proposed plan. “I think we do need to move forward with this. Because there is a small subset of people who really do have horrendous pain and suffering and who really want to no longer be living,” says Dr. Kerry Bowman, a bioethicist with the University of Toronto who special-izes in end-of-life decision-making adding, if legislation passes, doctors who aren’t comfortable with the concept should have the choice to opt out. And I agree. He also says there would need to be strict rules. The

proposed legislation would apply only to patients over the age of 18 who are suffer-ing from a terminal disease. They must also be suffering from “constant and unbear-able physical or psychologi-cal pain which cannot be relieved. The patient would also have to state their intention to die in writing, have a doctor agree, and then have a second doctor

confirm medically aided death is the only way to end the patient’s suffering. It seems reasonable to me but if this doesn’t pass, then at the very least we need to be looking at current palliative care practices. “In Canada, we’re not providing fabulous end-of-life care. We need to do so much better...” adds Bowman and others agree. Alex Schadenberg, the executive director of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition who opposes the bill, says that what’s really needed in Canada is improvements to the country’s palliative-care system. “People don’t want to be suffering or in significant pain and that’s what we should be looking at. That’s what palliative care is supposed to be and we need better pal-liative care...” Whatever route we take, we know death is inevitable and a reality we will all face, would you rather go peace-fully or in misery?

The way I see it...

Today, I announce the founding of the Society for the Protection of Buttons. We at the SPB, which cur-rently consists of precisely one slightly crotchety member, will work to fight the continual encroach-ment of touch screens on our daily lives. We will object to being unable to actually press a real, physi-cal button in order to control the things in our lives, we will protest the removal of knobs from our stereos and kitchen appliances, and we will fight the good fight to eliminate the minor frustrations inherent in dealing with touch screens that don’t work quite right. We have a difficult task ahead of us, mostly because touch screens are the trendy device when it comes to pretty much anything new and electronic. In some cases, it makes a degree of sense. A phone, for exam-ple, has only so much area that you can use, and mak-ing it bigger makes it too big for a pocket. We won’t object too strongly to an entirely touch screen phone, though we certainly would never buy one. It’s every-thing else that is shedding buttons that draws our ire. Take, for instance, the debit machines used to buy many goods and services. For years, they worked sim-ply, by having little buttons to indicate the account you want, and other similar functions. They worked

reliably and efficiently, and you could always be con-fident that the machine would recognize the button pressed. Now, the vile touch screen army has invaded our stores. The new devices, while trendy, are not nearly as reliable as a good old fashioned button. Sometimes they outright don’t recognize an input, sometimes they are calibrated poorly and think you pressed something else, sometimes the area to press is vague. Always, they are inferior to the old system, where it was clear which button needed to be pressed and it always did exactly what the label said. It seems like it should be obvious that buttons are the superior system, but it is clear that buttons are

facing challenges. If one goes shopping for a car, they will find a downright depressing array of touch screens for stereos and other minor controls, all of which one has to actually look at if they want to con-trol anything in their car. Buttons are the best for cars, since you can use them while driving, distinctly shaped buttons can be used without taking your eyes off the road and while wearing gloves, something which is difficult to impossible with most touch screens and button-free capacitive surfaces. But, in an effort to follow fashion, we see steadily fewer buttons in our vehicles, to our dismay. But there have been victories. Ford recently announced that they will bring knobs and buttons back to cars equipped with the MyFord Touch system, in addition to the touch interface. In spite of the SPB not actually existing when this announcement was made, we shall take credit anyway, because we might have mentioned our preference to a car dealer some-where, at some point. It is our hope that more manu-facturers see the error of their entirely touch-screen ways, adding more button controls to allow us to actu-ally control things, without dealing with a technology has never offered the accuracy and satisfaction of a well designed button interface. In the past, we needed buttons, but now, buttons need us.

Do you have ideas on how to create a more disable friendly Saskatchewan? If so, the government is looking for your input. The deadline for nominations to the Citizen Consultation Team that will steer the development of a province-wide Disability Strategy is fast approaching. The 12-15 members of the team will provide advice on the consultation process, priorities and content of a province-wide Disability Strategy. Nominations will be accept-ed until June 28, and team members will be appointed in the fall of this year. “It’s important to draw from as many experiences and opinions as possible in order for the Disability Strategy to support our goal of making Saskatchewan the best place in Canada to live for persons with dis-abilities,” Legislative Secretary and Regina Coronation Park MLA Mark Docherty says. “To do that, we need people with disabilities to be able to fully participate in, and benefit from, our province’s growing economy.” The Disability Strategy will focus on the priority areas outlined in the Government’s Plan for Growth: acces-sibility, affordability and availability of housing; transportation; employ-ment; education; support for commu-nity inclusion; and support for care-givers. Other priorities may emerge during the consultation process. Members of the public can submit their nominations for the Citizen Consultation Team by downloading the application form from the Ministry of Social Services website at www.socialservices.gov.sk.ca/disability-strategy. Those individuals who are not select-ed for the Citizen Consultation Team will have other opportunities to con-tribute to the process, including tak-ing part in working groups, public consultations and one-on-one meet-ings. If you have ideas, now is your chance to get involved in making a differ-ence!

To the Editor:

Late last month the U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture published its new Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) regulations, re-placing the provisions of the 2009 version. The U.S. undertook the revi-sions to “provide consumers with more specifi c information and other modifi cations to enhance the over-all operation of the program” and to comply with a World Trade Orga-nization (WTO) directive resulting from a Canada-initiated dispute, which claimed the 2009 rules dis-criminated against Canadian meat exporters. The fact is, that the revised COOL regulations of 2013 are even more detrimental to Canadian cattle, beef and hogs than COOL 2009. The new rules require that Canadian live-stock imported by the U.S. must in-clude records showing not only the country of origin, but also where it was born, where it was raised, and where it was slaughtered. But the competitive disadvantage imposed on imported livestock is further escalated by additional new rules affecting beef. Under the 2013 rules, packers and retailers will no longer be able to make a claim of ‘mixed origin’ for products of differ-ent countries – which include U.S. beef and pork. The rules eliminate the allowance for commingling mus-cle cut covered commodities of dif-ferent origins. This makes the com-petitive disadvantage imposed on imported livestock and meat even greater than under the old rules. The U.S. may be correct when it claims that only 12.5 per cent of the U.S. cattle and hog packing indus-

try is making use of the co-mingling fl exibility. However, that 12.5 per cent constitutes the bulk of Cana-dian and Mexican cattle and beef, and all of Canadian hog exports to the U.S.. This is clearly a trade re-strictive measure. In my view, the 2013 COOL rules are even more trade restrictive, dis-ruptive and trade distorting than the 2009 rules which the WTO ruled violated U.S. trade obligations. As it is, the COOL 2009 regulations have had serious adverse effects on Cana-dian livestock exports. Over the past fi ve years, exports of cattle declined by half and hog exports fell 40 per cent. Canadian ranchers claim to have lost $1 billion due to existing COOL regulations. The advantages gained follow-ing the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement and North American Free Trade Agreement have been frustrated by these protectionist actions. COOL 2013, if allowed to prevail, will further distort produc-tion and trade of livestock in North America, with the result that indus-try on both sides of the border will lose. It clearly does not speak well to the U.S. respect for the WTO multi-lateral rules process. Talk of swift retaliation by Cana-da and Mexico is in the air. In fact, Canada has already announced a list of commodities it will target for retaliation, and Mexico is expected to follow suit shortly (Read Canada announces potential retaliation tar-gets to US COOL). Any reasonable reading of COOL 2013 indicates the U.S. Agriculture Secretary has no regard for either the WTO panel fi ndings or the changes in industry practices since 2008 which further strengthened the case by Canada.

At the same time, it must be ac-knowledged that major broad-based U.S. organizations such as the Na-tional Cattle and Beef Association, The American Meat Institute, and The National Pork Producers Coun-cil made strong representations against the disruptive and trade discriminatory aspects of the rules. They were unsuccessful even in their plea for delaying the effective date of implementation and their re-quest for negotiations of a sequenc-ing agreement with Canada appears to have been ignored. It is to Canada’s advantage to work in cooperation with these orga-nizations to minimize trade disrup-tion as the WTO dispute resolution proceeds. Actions with these like-minded organizations as allies could be initiated under NAFTA. But this is not the time for hasty retaliation, especially in Canada-U.S. relations. It would be more effective to simply expose the Agriculture Secretary’s hypocritical and cynical approach to the WTO process. In the longer term, Canada needs to develop a far more aggressive market diversifi cation strategy and agriculture and food manufactur-ing industry. The Canada/EU and the Trans-Pacifi c Partnership ne-gotiations could enhance export op-portunities in livestock and meat, and contribute to investment and supply chain considerations. But at the same time, the necessity of food safety and enforcement standards and a robust surveillance for dis-ease and environmental practices to increasing exports of livestock prod-ucts is imperative.

Around May 25 or 26th a pre-cious bundle of tools went miss-ing from the garage of Donna and Gary Copan of 7 Redwood Drive, Yorkton. After more than sixty years of residency in Yorkton, Donna and Gary were in the midst of pack-ing, bundling and auctioning most of their household belong-ings in preparation for their move to British Columbia. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that this precious bun-dle may have inadvertently gone with auctioned items. Equally as possible, this pre-cious bundle may have appeared abandoned and thus, up for grabs. The bundle was never meant to be anywhere nor with anyone but Gary Copan. The precious bundle contained tools from Gary’s late father, Gor-don Copan. The bundle contained tools given as gifts to Gary from his late son, Derek Copan and the bundle contained a power cord that would likely seem old and obsolete to others, but was in fact the only remaining article left to Gary from his late father-in-law. This bundle was fi lled with what may appear to be an assortment of old and new tools -- but what was really contained in that bun-dle was enormous love. For obvious sentimental rea-sons, the return of any or all of the contents of the lost precious bundle is of the utmost impor-tance to Gary Copan and his fam-ily. Gary’s heart needs the return of these items far more than any-one else could need them in their workshop. If you purchased the tools in the auction, please advise us. We will reimburse you for your costs. If you inadvertently picked-up the bundle thinking it was aban-doned, we know that would have been easily done. But it means so much to us to get these back -- please, please return the items. Please contact Barb at 306-782-4226 if you have an information about these tools.

A Nova Scotia fi sherman made headlines recently for catching (and releasing) a bright blue lob-ster. According to an Associated Press story published last year, reports of brightly colored lobsters are becoming more common. While scientists debate why pink, blue, orange, and even calico lobsters are turning up in traps, one thing is

certain: No lobster, no matter what color, deserves to be boiled alive. Lobsters can live to be more than 100 years old, they recognize indi-vidual lobsters, remember past ac-quaintances, have elaborate court-ship rituals, and help guide young lobsters across the ocean fl oor by holding claws in a line that can stretch for many yards. Multiple studies have indicated that lob-sters feel pain, and lobsters who

are boiled alive likely suffer every second of the three long minutes it takes for them to die. The next time you consider eat-ing one of these interesting living beings, please pass, and opt for an animal-friendly vegan meal in-stead.

Bill C-52, legislation to amend the Canada Transportation Act, was supposed to “level the playing-fi eld” at long last between the railways and their shipper-customers. But as the Harper govern-ment forces its new law through the fi nal stages of Parliamentary consid-eration, it’s proving to be a major disappointment from the shippers’ point of view. Nearly three years ago, a federal review panel found the railways were providing seriously de-fi cient services to the shippers of agricultural commodities, forest prod-ucts, minerals, fertilizers, chemicals, manufactured good. Typically, shippers were

getting what they ordered from the railways only about 50 per cent of the time. The consequences were costly. So the panel proposed new legislation providing every ship-per with the legal right to have a “Service Level Agreement” (SLA) with the railways. Each agree-ment would lay out the behavior that railways and shippers could expect from each other, and if ei-ther side failed to perform there would be enforce-able consequences. To start with, the par-ties would be expected to try to negotiate a mutual-ly satisfactory agreement, but if voluntary efforts didn’t succeed, the ship-per would have the right to insist on binding arbi-tration. So far, so good. That’s

what C-52 appears to do – on the surface. But the vast majority of shippers fi nd this proposed legisla-tion to be seriously defi -cient in two basic ways: (a) It fails to provide a clear defi nition of what constitutes adequate ser-vice and how any service failure is identifi ed and measured; and (b) It fails to provide meaningful consequences – the railways would pay a modest fi ne to the govern-ment, but not liquidated damages to the aggrieved shipper. So C-52 does not level the playing fi eld. Rail-ways will continue to wield disproportionate market power because the ship-pers are largely held cap-tive, without competitive alternatives and without effective legal remedies.

After more than six years of analysis and de-bate, and despite a mas-sive consensus among the shippers of almost every-thing, the Harper Conser-vatives are entirely indif-ferent to what shippers need and what their own expert panel investigated and verifi ed. The shippers minimized their demands. They sug-gested a handful of emi-nently reasonable amend-ments to fi x the two basic problems. But govern-ment MPs completely ignored them, ramming through their defective Bill without changing so much as a comma. It’s a serious disappoint-ment. And once again, the railways win.

To the Editor:

This is my fi rst year playing baseball. My dad has driven past the dia-monds at JC Beach with me many times but I’ve never played there. It

is like playing on a big league fi eld. The grass is always perfect and the gravel is red. The lines are always fresh and there’s even a washroom out there. We have practiced at

Lion’s Field and the Jubi-lee fi elds as well. I don’t know how taxes work but I know the City uses that money to make those fi elds as nice as they are. I just wanted to send this letter to thank the

City and the taxpayers for giving me and my friends such nice fi elds to play on.

Thank you for all the great baseball venues!

In summer, many Canadians use vacation time to explore other countries. If you’re apply-ing for or renewing a passport this summer, you should know that effective July 1st, those important pocket-sized documents will change. So will the costs to obtain one. For the first time in over a decade, Passport Canada is increasing up-front passport fees, though for semi-frequent travellers, those new fees mean a slight reduction in cost per year of use. After July 1st, all pass-ports issued will contain thirty-six hard copy pages, as well as an elec-tronic chip. The embed-ded chip holds the infor-

mation found on page two of the Passport (an electronic or e-passport) and will increase your document’s security. This change will help Canada keep pace with current technological advances in internation-al travel document secu-rity. After July 1st, citizens 16 and older may apply

for either a five- or ten-year ePassport. The 10-year ePassport will cost $160, while a five-year ePassport will cost $120, up from the cur-rent $87. A child’s 5-year passport fee will be $57. Passport Canada reminds applicants to gather the necessary documents (check the website) well ahead of

travel schedule. To avoid any surprises, I also urge constituents applying for passports for their chil-dren to note the regula-tion requiring not only birth certificates, but the signatures of both par-ents – even in cases of parental separation or divorce. Passport applications are available at Service Canada or any Canada Post outlet. You can also find them online at: www.ppt.gc.ca . The for-mer paper applications will still be acceptable after July 1st, though applicants will need to specify whether a five- or ten-year passport is desired, and submit the appropriate revised fees. All completed applica-tions must be mailed to or dropped off at Passport Canada. To avoid long waits, Passport Canada recommends that those applying in person at a Passport Canada office choose either a weekday morning or a Wednesday or Thursday afternoon, as those days are tradi-tionally less busy. If you are travelling by air and your current passport will expire within six months of your trip, I’d advise you to check with your desig-nated airline to ensure your document will be honoured – this isn’t always the case. One more note… if you currently own a valid passport, there is no need to switch to an ePassport. Your docu-ment is secure, and will remain valid until it expires.

YRHS Students of the Month

STUDENTS RECOG-NIZED – The Western Financial Group Yorkton Regional High School Students of the Month for May are Viktoria Wilkanowicz and Stefan Stojanovic. Viktoria is a young lady who comes to us from her homeland of Poland and has made a positive impact on the YRHS and the Family of Raiders. In less than three years, she has overcome barri-ers of language and cul-ture and shows strong determination and work ethic. Participating in Drama, the Musical, Soccer, and Mock Trial activities, she demon-strates how getting involved is connected to success. Viktoria has plans to pursue the field of medicine and, with her academic ability as well as dedication to her goals, she will very likely succeed. As she com-pletes her Grade 12 year, we are proud to celebrate her as the YRHS female Student of the Month for May. Congratulations! Stefan is a role model

for our international stu-dents as well as for all members of the YRHS Raider family. Stefan’s outgoing personality and his dedication to the goals he sets for himself are admirable. He is fiercely proud of his Serbian heritage and shares his culture with both teachers and stu-dents. Also involved in the extra-curricular pro-gram with soccer, Stefan is one of the best ambas-sadors for the YRHS. He readily assists other stu-dents who may be strug-gling with learning English, and his passion for cooking is well noted. Also in his Grade 12 year, Stefan plans to pursue a career in computer tech-nology.

A TIME TO CELEBRATE – On June 6, the Parkland College congratulated over 300 students for successfully completing their chosen programs during the 2012-13 academic year. The annual ceremony honours completions in numerous program areas including University, Certificate and Diploma programs, and Adult Basic Education. Graduates from the post-secondary programs will receive accreditation from the University of Regina, Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre, Western Trades Training Institute, SIAST, and Parkland College. Graduates were recognized from each of the Parkland College locations in Canora, Esterhazy, Fort Qu’Appelle, Kamsack, Melville, and Yorkton.

Changes coming to Passport Canada

Appreciating our native prairies June 16-22 is Saskatchewan’s 15th Annual Native Prairie Appreciation Week. “Saskatchewan’s farm and ranch families depend on the native prairie to support their livelihoods and have historically proven themselves to be the best stewards of the land,” Agri-culture Minister Lyle Stewart says. “Native Prairie Appreciation Week is as much about bringing awareness to the signifi cance of Saskatchewan’s grasslands as it is about recognizing and celebrating the conservation ef-forts of our producers.” “Saskatchewan is distinct in its endowment of native grasslands and we recognize and value them as an important part of our natural capi-tal,” adds Environment Minister Ken Cheveldayoff. “We recognize the na-

tional and international conservation importance of Saskatchewan’s native grasslands as well as the numerous benefi ts these areas confer to ranch-ers, recreational users and the broad-er public.” “Native Prairie Appreciation Week helps inform urban and rural resi-dents, ranchers and farmers, and students and families about the nu-merous benefi ts native prairie pro-vides to everyone,” SK PCAP Chair and rancher from Ponteix Orin Balas says. “The event demonstrates how we can all work together, by sharing ideas and experiences, to preserve this vibrant piece of Saskatchewan’s ecosystem.” This year’s theme for Native Prai-rie Appreciation Week is “Rediscover your Roots in the Prairies!”

Summer is here and strawberry season is one of the most celebrated times of the year for lov-ers of this luscious red fruit. I always buy an abundant amount of all fruit when it is in season, and strawberries are no exception. Although strawberries seem to be available throughout the entire year, thanks to our friends in the south; they are not as good as the ones we get fresh right here from our local farmers. Imported strawberries from warm-er climates have usually been cultivated in a way, which produces a larger and firmer berry more durable for transport. This is great for having strawberries available year-round, however these cultivation methods are also the culprit for producing a berry that usually is not as sweet or flavourful as its locally available counter-part. Thus we tend to rely on sweeteners and flavour enhancers, such as sugar or chocolate, when serv-ing them. A small amount of balsamic vinegar is also, surprisingly; a great way to bring out the fla-vour of fresh strawber-ries. Strawberries are very perishable and should be handled and stored with care. First of all, never buy a basket of strawber-ries that contains any spoiled ones. Although it may only be one berry, microscopic mold spores have already been trans-ferred to adjacent berries in the basket. This will lead to the whole basket of fruit deteriorating fast-er. Since washing and handling of the berries will also increase the rap-idness of spoilage, only wash the amount needed and leave the others untouched. The washing of straw-berries should only be done with the whole berry intact. If the green top is removed, you will find that the center is some-what hollow. This cavity will collect water and dra-matically reduce (water down) the amount of fla-vour. Unwashed leftover berries should be stored in the refrigerator in a covered container to keep their “musty” odor from dispersing throughout. A drain tray in this con-tainer would be ideal, as it would aid in air circula-tion within, by keeping any moisture trapped at the bottom and away from the berries. Freezing is another option for preservation, however as with most fragile fruit you lose qual-ity. Strawberries are high in vitamin C and the most optimal way of maintain-ing their nutritional value is to leave them whole. Cut strawberries have more surface area, and thus loose nutrients fast-er. To prepare for freez-ing, wash the berries intact, pat them dry, remove the green tops, and transfer them to a freezer bag and use them within the next six months for best results. There are many dishes that you can prepare using strawberries. The most traditional are des-serts such as strawberry shortcake and chocolate dipped strawberries. However, they also work

great as tid-bits on cheese platter, or make them into a salsa to spoon over grilled chicken or fish. Many people have never made a salsa out of fruit, but it is very simple and the contrasting flavours are very complimentary to the grilled fish or meat it is being served upon. To accomplish making a great strawberry salsa, just add an assortment of items to small-diced strawberries, such as red onion, yellow bell pepper, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, and season with a little salt & pepper. You will be amazed at the

results - and since it is strawberry season, the time to experiment is now.

Dear Chef Dez: I have attempted to make chocolate covered strawberries in the past, but they never turn out the way they should be. When they are bitten into, the hard chocolate coat-ing breaks apart and falls on to the plate instead of staying on the berry. What can I do to prevent this?

Tracey S.

Mission, BCDear Tracey: When you melt the chocolate to dip the straw-berries into, also melt butter with it and mix it together to form your chocolate coating. Once your strawberries are dipped, chill them in the refrigerator to set, but bring them almost to room temperature before serving. The butter will soften the coating, just as room temperature butter is softer than room tem-perature chocolate. Use two ounces of butter for every four ounces of choc-olate.

FOR THE KIDS – Re/Max Blue Chip Realty recent-ly hosted a hot dog sale at Western Financial Group City Center Park. The event raised $2,211.92 over the afternoon, all proceeds raised went to the Children’s Miracle Network.

This year’s Chamber of Commerce business dinner will feature two busi-nessmen who have made mark on Canada’s snack industry. Chris Emery and Larry Finnson have been announced as the speakers for the event. Emery and Finnson are best known as the founders of the OMG and Clodhoppers brands of candy. Amie Zamonsky, president of the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce, says that the pair was at the top of the list of poten-tial speakers, as their experience of building their candy brands would be of interest to local business people.

“These are two great Canadian food entrepreneurs that are known for humorous and inspiring presentations,” Zamonsky says. The pair sold Clodhoppers in 2006 as a multi-million dollar company, after starting with a grandmother’s recipe. Zamonsky says that their experience ranging from a very small operation to a very large can translate to the commu-nity’s entrepreneurs, no matter the size of their own business. The Chamber Business Dinner will be held Tuesday, October 2 at St. Mary’s Ukrainian Cultural Centre. Tickets and sponsorship opportunities are available by calling the Chamber of Commerce office at 306-783-4368.

Chamber bizz night set to go

YORKTON KINETTE Tracy Malayney has stepped down form her role as chair of the local organization. Pictured above (l-r) are: Executive Committee: Tracy Malay-ney (Past Chair, Yorkton), Leanne Wildeman (Vice Chair, Lloydminster), Lori Friesen (Retired Past Chair, Melfort), Lorraine Duxbury (Chair, Assiniboia). See more on Page 11.

Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This one of a series on get-ting settled in Hazel Dell. Here I am! More or less house bound! Chasing everybody away with my walker, when I’m not parked in my favorite chair and moving about the house. Oh well, just a few more weeks and I’ll have a new hip! We were watching our favorite TV show last night, and a key person for the prosecution had died while being oper-ated on for a new hip! Oops! My wife assured me that the Canadian sur-geons are way better than those Hollywood guys, and told me not to worry! My wife gets many days off in a month, as she is only a part time employee. These last few days off, she decided to replace the carpet in the living room with wood laminate floor-ing. Unfortunately I was unable to give her a hand with it, and to save our marriage, I removed myself to the office and made myself very busy, otherwise I would have sat in my easy chair and told her how to do it, which based on history would be the wrong way, and would definitely have put a big strain on our relationship! What a great job she did! It looks perfect! I mean I couldn’t have done it any better (in my dreams) myself! I did however vacuum up the sawdust where she had cut the various pieces to the appropriate lengths. I have a fascination with languages, being it English or Norwegian. In English we call it a vacuum clean-er, as the vacuum created by the implement provides suction, which in turn

cleans the floor or carpet. The description of the implement therefore makes perfect sense. In Norwegian however, the implement is named for the actual cleaning action it performs, and it is called a “Stoevsuger,” which in English translates to “dust sucker.” In English I vacu-umed the floor, but in Norwegian I sucked the dust off the floor! Either way the floor got clean! I’m getting to the age where I have to admit that I’m getting old, as are a lot of my friends as well. After learning that I’m booked for a hip replace-ment, the following note was sent to me by an old friend that now lives in Florida: “I have had two by-pass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, prostate cancer, and dia-betes, I am half blind and can’t hear anything quiet-er than a jet engine. I take 40 different medications every day that makes me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. I have bouts with dementia, poor circu-lation and I can hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. I can’t remem-ber if I’m 85 or 92. I have all of my friends except you, but… Thank God I still have my DRIVER’S LICENSE!!!” I thought I would wind up this week’s article with an animated story from down under: There were three rab-bits called foot, footfoot and footfootfoot. One day they decided to go for a picnic. They packed up a lovely lunch and went out into the country where they played chase and hide and seek and enjoyed them-selves sooo much. Then they had their pic-nic. Very soon after the

picnic, foot began to feel ill. Footfoot said he would run for a doctor which he did. But by the time the doctor got there it was too late. Very soon foot was dead. Sometime later, footfoot

and footfootfoot decided they would go on a picnic.They packed up a lovely lunch and went out into the country where they played chase and hide and seek and enjoyed them-selves sooo much.

Then they had their pic-nic. Very soon after the picnic, footfootfoot began to feel ill. Footfoot said he would run for a doctor which he did. But when the doctor got there he announced that it was

very serious, and Footfootfoot was going to die. Footfoot was devastat-ed. “No, doctor – please say it isn’t so. We’ve got one foot in the grave already!”

Con’t from Page 1.

Fiacco says many peo-ple might know the prov-ince for its economy in recent years, but are oth-erwise unfamiliar with the region. He says it’s his job now to educate people on the recreation side of Saskatchewan. In his own tours across the province it has shown him activities that he didn’t know about, which emphasizes the need for better marketing. One of those initiatives will be a new television campaign, which Fiacco says has been inspired by Newfoundland’s success in marketing their prov-ince. He notes that they have hired Mary Taylor-Ash, who played a part in creating that campaign, and are going to try to highlight things people might take for granted in the province, such as the forests of Northern Saskatchewan or the opportunities for fishing and recreation. “When you see those commercials on televi-sion, they don’t even talk about tourism, they talk about Newfoundland and Labrador, and what it’s like to be in Newfoundland

and Labrador, whether as a visitor, a citizen, some-body working there, or somebody raising a family there, they’re really quite magical. We’re going to be attempting to create something very similar, which doesn’t just speak to tourism in Saskatchewan, but speaks to life in Saskatchewan.” While the province has seen significant increases in new visits in recent years, Fiacco says that those are not the big vis-

its that put a lot of money into the tourism industry. He says the goal of the campaign is to highlight the vacation opportuni-ties that the province has. “You can just imagine how we can improve those numbers if we tell the rest of the country what we have, and how afford-able it is as well.”

GIVING BACK – Yorkton’s Xi Zeta Beta Sigma Phi chapter decided to raffle tickets for a basket full of goodies for their Mother’s Day fundraiser this year. The group sold the tickets at Mano’s Restaurant in Yorkton and in the end raised $807 which they are donating to the Chase Kraynick Pay it Forward Splash Park. This donation will go a long way in making this park a beautiful place where many families will make special memories with each other. The winner of the basket was Shirley Morrison. The local Beta chapter is comprised of nine members who include Giselle Bernat, Deb Harris, Jacalyn Grela, Shirley O’Boyle, Bree Rogoza, Stephanie Wong Erhardt, Barb Stamatinos, Janna Young and Kathy Novak.

Yorkton’s Tracy Ma-layney was thanked Sat-urday night for her role as the Kinsmen Founda-tion’s outgoing Chair. “Being the Chair of the Kinsmen Foundation is an incredible pleasure. It is an opportunity to

lead some of Saskatch-ewan’s fi nest volunteers doing some of the kind-est work for Saskatch-ewan people,” she says. Malayney is a member of the Yorkton Kinettes and was fi rst elected to the Kinsmen Founda-

tion Board of Directors in 2009, where she rep-resented Yorkton re-gion applicants in their funding requests from the Foundation. Ma-layney notes, “Over the four years I have spent on the Board, we have

assisted hundreds with funding for special needs equipment like scooters, lift systems, and van conversions. We have also ensured people who need to leave their home community for medical treatment, have travel money to get where they need to be. All our work is very necessary for the

people that we help, and very rewarding to our volunteers to have the honour of doing so.” Malayney will have one more year on the Board before retiring. Yorkton has both a Kinsmen and a Kinette Club that are active in the Community and are well known for carrying

out the Kin motto “Serv-ing the Community’s Greatest Need”. New members are alwayswelcome. “I am passionateabout Kin and welcome people to call me about how they can become part of this fabulous or-ganization.” encourages Malayney

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

After nearly winning their fi rst league championship in almost twen-ty years last season it was hard to think that the Yorkton Regional High School Raiders football program’s summer could possibly top their on fi eld success last fall, but after Dal-ton Fichtner landed a roster spot with the University of Regina Rams for next fall and Layne Hull committed to the CJFL’s Okanagan Sun, two of the Raiders returning players made some big steps in their careers outside of Raider uniforms as well, surviving a grueling process to be named one of the best high school players in the province making Team Saskatchewan for this years Canadian U-18 Champi-onships in the Atlantic this summer. Grey McKen, who alongside Hull was one of the Raiders top lineback-

ers in the best defense in the league last season cracked the fi nal roster alongside Peter Kozushka whose big presence on the offensive line was a huge reason that Raiders running backs Zack Kais and Tyson Haas had so much success in 2012. The two players began their jour-ney to making the team months ago as the two began going to Saskatch-ewan Football camps, fi rst making the Roughrider Bowl team after local ID camps and than continuing with tryouts after that, soldiering through drives to tryouts and practices where an off day was not an option as the best football players in the province were all eager to get a huge opportu-nity to showcase their skills on the national stage for respective colleges/universities and junior programs at the annual summer tournament. “It was a longer process than many would expect,” mentions McKen and

Kozushka. “You would go to an ID camp, than take a week or so off, then go to another camp and trying to im-press the coaches each time in a com-petitive atmosphere was tough, but it was also good training for what is going to come this summer and in the fall when we suit up for the Raiders.” Despite both being underclassmen in 2012, it was easy to see why the two made the elite Saskatchewan U-18 squad watching their play with the Raiders last season. Both players spend long hours in the weight room and have frames that despite being a season away from getting ready for the next level, are physically mature enough to make that jump due to hard work. That hard work put in for their school is something they both credit as a major reason they survived the try-out camps and impressed the coaches.

McKen, Kozushka make Sask U-18 squad

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer Once again consistency has been the Yorkton Car-dinals downfall to begin the 2013 Western Major Baseball League season. A team that has apparent talent, has struggled to put that talent together over a stretch of multiple games so far this season, resulting in a sub- .500 record and that inconsistent play was once again on display as the Cards returned from a week long road trip to host a four game homestand at Jubilee Park this weekend. The Cardinals opened up their weekend strong against the Moose Jaw Mill-er Express, but could not carry that momentum into the Saturday and Sunday set against the Lethbridge Bulls, getting swept by the Alberta ballclub before fi n-ishing off their homestand with a win over their divi-sion rivals in the Regina Red Sox to go 2-2 on the weekend, keeping pace on their 5-9 record, but still staying at the bottom of the

East Division standings, a familiar place for manager Bill Sobkow. On Friday a four RBI night from George Santiago and a three RBI game from shortstop Matt Chavarria gave the Cardinals enough run support to cruise to a 13-10 win over the Miller Express, who have been playing in some high scor-ing ball games with the Car-dinals so far in the opening month of the WMBL season. Aaron Dick nearly allowed the Express to come right back into the game allowing four runs in just one and a third innings of work in re-lief, but Kody Rock came in to shut the door in a two in-ning outing to get the save for the Cardinals and the opening win to start the homestand. Those bats that have been alive against Moose Jaw all season fell silent on Satur-day night as the Lethbridge Bulls blanked the Cardi-nals 5-0 behind a seven in-ning shutout performance from starting pitcher Den-nis Neal. Chavarria was the losing pitcher in the loss,

allowing four runs in seven and two third innings at the mound. A four hit performance from Justin Burgess on Sunday led to a 2-0 Car-dinals lead going into the sixth on Sunday in the re-match against the Bulls, but Jeff Pool and Kody Rock could not hang onto the lead

on the mound and the Bulls eventually pulled out a 6-2 win from the hosts in the late innings to sweep the Cardinals at their own ball-park in the two game Alber-ta/Saskatchewan weekend series.

“Having great coach-es in Yorkton definitely prepared us for making the team as they moti-vate us to work in sea-son and during winter workouts and it showed that it pays off during the camps,” mentions the pair. As far as expectations go, McKen and Kozushka both hope to be key players for the 40 man U-18 squad when they travel to Moncton, New Brunswick this sum-mer, but even if the snaps don’t come their way, they will still do whatever it takes to bring their home prov-ince national bragging rights at the Football Canada Cup, a tourna-ment where football crazy Saskatchewan is always a favorite and former Raider RJ

Skinner lifted a trophy not many years ago. “We both want to just do whatever it takes to help us grow as football players as well as to win,” says the close teammate duo. “Obviously we want and expect to play, but if that doesn’t happen then I guess we both will have to work hard-er to impress the coach-es but we both feel that we have a good chance to be key players on the team after camp.” The experience for the two, while being great for their develop-ment as football play-ers and getting noticed by post-secondary pro-grams across the coun-try will also be a huge win for the Raiders going into a 2013 sea-son where they are hop-ing to be provincial championship contend-ers after losing just six

players from last year’s league runner up team that just ran out of steam at the end of the road losing in the MJHSFL Champ-ionship Game. Getting two of their star players reps all summer against the province, and the coun-try’s elite players only bodes well for the Raiders who are count-ing on McKen and Kozushka to run havoc on opponents come the fall with another year of experience under their belt. McKen and Kozushka both feel the same way about a lot of things, and they are aware the opportunity also is one that will be huge for giving their team the chance to contend next year. “Playing against the best only makes you better and that is what we want to do, so

this opportunity is huge for us as players and hopefully it carries over to winning titles,” clos-es McKen.

Two of Yorkton’s brightest stars in the minor football program will be looking to put the province and the

country on notice this summer. Given their play for the YRHS, it is only a matter of time.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer After scheduling issues trying to get their Regina foes to come down for their scheduled away fix-tures to Yorkton, the YUFC men finally got to show their talents at home on Saturday at Sacred Heart’s pitch, tak-ing two convincing wins over the Regina Cosmos. In the first game the YU pulled away from a 10 man Cosmos side with some good production up

top from Leon Derks, who has been unavailable for road trips, playing as a guest player for the United’s six home games his two goals in the first game led to a 6-nil win. Having the striker up top seemed to be the dif-ference in game two as well as the United took advantage of having the home field for the first time all season, wrapping up a 4-0 win but not with-out some resistance from the Cosmos, who employed a kick and run strategy in

playing behind the ball and sending long through balls to their speedy strik-er who did give the United some problems, but keep-er Jonny Bell did well to save a penalty and some key breakaways in the two fixtures. Luck ran out on Monday night in the final of four games between the two clubs, as despite the Cosmos taking a red card early as a player was ejected from Liebel Field after punching United leftback Brandon

McCallum, the United could not deal with the speed of the Cosmos strik-er who is one of the best in the league as a late goal in the first half off of another longball effort made it 3-nil at the break and was the dagger. Still after six games the United sit at 2-2-2 and have an outside chance of finishing first in the league with four home games remaining, if that is going to happen wins on the road are going to have to come fast.

Kozushka and McKen look to represent on national stage

Yorkton United men take two wins in weekend home opener

PETER KOZUSHKA opens a huge hole for his running back for the YRHS. He will beone of 40 Sask players to represent the province at the Football Canada Cup.

Cont. from Page 14 On Tuesday the Cardinals closed their homestand against the defending champion Red Sox, and after two close games against the Red Sox this season before coming up short the Cards finally got over the hump against their East Division rivals with a 5-0 win that kept the Cards at the same place they were before their home-stand, four games under .500. That inconsistency has put the Cardinals in a tough spot as they will now have to look to find a run of wins on

the road as they head up to Saskatoon to play the Yellow Jackets before going up to Edmonton on the week-end for a two game set in Alberta. The good news is that the Yellow Jackets and the Prospects are both also losing ballclubs at the moment, with Edmonton being the league’s worst team with a horrendous 1-13 record and the Yellow Jackets sitting just one win above the Cardinals mark of five with six on the season to date. If there was ever a road trip for Sobkow’s club to feel good about poten-tially sweeping it would

be this one. Wins are of need after three weeks of the reg-ular season as time will soon be running out and at 5-9 the Cardinals are still hovering around three games back of the Red Sox and two of the 7-7 Millionaires in the East Division. After missing the playoffs for a half decade, the Cardinals and their faithful fans are hungry for playoff

baseball and despite winning against the two best teams in their division this season, they have lost most of their games to losing ballclubs this year, including the Bulls who after winning two against Yorkton this weekend are still under .500 themselves. If the Cardinals are going to be a winning ballclub, they are going to have to dig deep and start beating on the losers.

Cardinals continue mixed results in 2013

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer With the Regina Soc-cer Association Premier League season heating up, the Yorkton United Football Club’s U-12 boys put themselves into the title mix with three wins over the weekend to stay within striking distance in third place. Saturday morning, Regina REU Chelsea came to Yorkton to meet the YUFC on the Parkland Mall. York-ton dominated play in the weekend opener at home. The U-12’s 20 shots on goal lead the way to a 4-2 YUFC win ad three of nine points on the weekend. Jordin Rusnack marked a hat trick in the fi rst half before Jaxon McLeod registered the fourth goal six minutes into

the second half. Regi-na scored two late goals but it was too little too late as Yorkton defend-ed their home pitch to the score of 4-2.The boys were sched-uled to play the Regina U14 Div 1 Girls in the afternoon, but the girls’ team was not able to fi eld enough players, so they forfeited the match resulting in a 5-0 fi nal score for Yorkton. The boys travelled to Regina on Sunday to meet the Moose Jaw United Boys for a dou-ble-header. The morn-ing match was played at Usher Field. Matthew Cochrane scored the fi rst point 24 minutes in while Jordin Rus-nack marked Yorkton’s second goal at the 36 minute mark. Yorkton held Moose Jaw score-less for the entire 90

minutes before a late free kick goal ended the game with a fi nal 2-1 scoreline. With in-creased passing and high energy, YUFC Chelsea met Moose Jaw again in the after-noon this time at Liebel Field. Nick Fetsch had the opening and closing goals for Yorkton, while Zach Wasylyshen, Jor-

din Rusnack and No-lan Maier each scored as well. In the end, Yorkton won the second match against Moose-Jaw 5-2. Coach Michael Jaku-biec was very pleased with Yorkton’s level of play this weekend. They have been work-ing hard in practices over the past couple of

weeks on passing, de-fending, and increasing the number of shots on goal according to the coach. The boys’ hard work and Jakubiec’s fo-cus has shown up in the team’s statistics and on the score board. While the wins are a bonus, Jakubiec tells his play-ers that he is really happy that they are de-

veloping as individual players and as a team. Next Sunday, Yorkton hosts another two Re-gina club on the Park-land Mall pitch as they continue to climb the standings in the RSA.For updated standings in the Regina League, visit www.reginasoccer.com and go to U12 Boys Premier League.

391 Ball RoadYorkton, SK

After the Yorkton Yankees beat the Cano-ra Supers 2-0 last week in a battle of the SES-BL’s undefeated ball-clubs, the two senior baseball powerhouses continued to do battle at the top of the standings to the dismay of their opponents in the South East senior league. The Yankees and Su-pers dominance was put to the test how-ever as the third place Langenburg Indians and the fourth place Willowbrook Royals showed that they can easily hang with the two teams at the top of the standings in some close affairs last week. After the Yankees home win over the Su-pers they had to pre-pare for a rematch of the 2012 SESBL Final as the Royals looked to end the Yanks unde-feated season at Jubilee Park. After the two teams traded runs in the fi rst inning, the Roy-als climbed out to a 3-1

lead in the second with a two run outburst that put them in the drivers seat as Tanner Nesbitt was given some run support to work with on the mound for the Roy-als. Still as they have shown all season, the defending champions will not go down eas-ily as two run innings in the fourth, fi fth, and sixth innings led to a 7-3 win for the Yankees and a missed opportu-nity for the Royals to get some sweet revenge on the Yankees for stealing the league title out of their hands last season. Meanwhile the Lan-genburg Indians suf-fered a similar heart-breaking result against the Supers in Canora, climbing out to a 3-0 lead with just three in-nings left, the Indians pitching staff was un-able to hand Canora their second straight loss as the Supers came roaring back in the late innings, tying the game up with two runs in the bottom of the sixth be-fore Tyrel Thorpe failed

to get the game into ex-tra innings in the bot-tom of the ninth. Canora would beat the Melville Bison 3-1 later in the week to overtake

fi rst place with the un-defeated Yankees hav-ing two games at hand. Langenburg stays in third place while Wil-lowbrook is hot on their

tail in fourth. Russell and Swan River are tied for fi fth place with two wins while the one win Mel-ville Bison are in sev-

enth. The Parkland Padres and the York-ton Orioles sit winless through this point and are in last place.

Yankees and Supers continue to dominate SESBL


After losing their first five games to open the PGLL season it is no secret that the rest of the Yorkton Bulldogs 2013 season in the Saskatchewan lacrosse league is a must win atmosphere. With all but three teams in the PGLL at .500 or worse, the Bulldogs were still very much alive going into their battle with the second place Saskatoon Steelers on Sunday. To make the Bulldogs situation even better, all of their remaining three games were scheduled to be at home meaning that if the Bulldogs could get past the Steelers on Sunday, they would have a final weekend with two games at home and a wide open race in the standings to end the season. Riding off a strong two periods against the league best Saskatoon Smash and their 6-4 win over the Prince

Albert Predators, the Bulldogs took a 3-1 lead in the opening period to put the Steelers on notice that the home-town team was playing for keeps with high stakes on the line. A defensive battle saw the Steelers trade roles with the Bulldogs in the second period, holding Yorkton score-less while tying the game up at 3-3 going into a crucial final 20 minutes at the FAA with the Bulldogs need-ing to find a final push with twenty minutes of lacrosse left to play. In a flashback to their first win of the season the Sunday before, it was a third period push that gave the Bulldogs the glory as they shut down the high powered second place Steelers in the third frame, scoring two of their own to escape with a 5-3 victo-ry, creating a perfect scenario for the Bulldogs on the final weekend. PGLL All-Star Louden Choptiuk was stellar in goal for the Bulldogs on Sunday,

allowing just three goals as the Bulldogs stymied the Steelers, once again showing that the home advan-tage might just be the key to the Bulldogs winning ways. The return of Jerry Fisher to the Bulldogs lineup for their home schedule and second half of the season was once again a key as Fisher now has eight assists and one goal in the three home games. Jackson Tetreault, Brennan Peleshytyk and Jayden Dozorec round out the Bulldogs top scorers at this point of the season. Dozorec leads the Bulldogs in scoring with seven goals and nine assists for 16 points while Peleshytyk has one goal and 12 assists. Tetreault’s seven goals and five assists give him 12 points on the year. Next weekend will determine the Bulldogs fate as they take on the Regina Riot on Saturday and the Regina Rifles on Sunday to close their

season. Saturday’s game against the Riot could see the Bulldogs crawl into seventh place as Yorkton could climb as high as fifth place if they can seal wins over the two Regina teams

on the weekend, a real possibility seeing as the Rifles play Prince Albert on the road on Saturday before having to travel to Yorkton for the season finale on Sunday. Two straight home

wins have the Bulldogs riding high as the regu-lar season closes. How high in the standings the Bulldogs finish is entirely up to them as they control their own destiny at home this weekend.

Bulldogs continue to turn things around at home

YORKTON BULLDOGS win their second straight home game as the PGLL seasonhits the homestretch. The Bulldogs control their own destiny as they try to get the best spot possible heading into the playoffs with two home games next weekend.

Tim Tebow. Tim Tebow. Tim Tebow. If you don’t live un-der a rock or even pay remote attention to any of the major media out-lets and blogs out there, you have surely had the name Tim Tebow blud-geoning you to death for nearly the past de-cade since he sprung onto the scene with the Florida Gators. When he signed for the New England Pa-triots last week, the media once again lost their collective minds like a group of school-girls swooning over Justin Bieber in 2010. It is weird seeing so many grown men in the media losing their mind over an athlete

just because he said a few good speeches and is “a good leader,” but ESPN and even TSN decided to dedi-cate a large portion of their newsday to Tim Tebow coverage, ignoring the fact that Tebow may be the Pa-triots third best pass-er behind future Hall of Famer Tom Brady and rocket armed Ar-kansas prospect Ryan Mallett. Keep in mind this hype was given to Tebow during the be-ginning of the NBA and NHL Finals and that the NFL is currently in minicamp and Offsea-son Training Activity stage, a time where you get to see highlights of

Tim Tebow throwing footballs wearing a red no contact jersey in-stead of extra analysis for the NBA and NHL’s championship match ups really irked me as after three season in the NFL it is apparent that Tebow is nowhere near the level of quali-ty to be warranting the attention he receives. Even when CFL teams were clamor-ing for Tebow’s ser-vices this winter as he couldn’t fi nd an NFL team I was question-ing whether or not that was a good idea in the fi rst place. If a guy who is one of the most popular players in the NFL is a player I wouldn’t want to see put on a Roughrider uniform, we have a problem. When that player takes over 10 per cent of the NFL’s offseason and in season talking points every year it gets to be even more annoying. At college, Tim Tebow’s hype was all deserved. A dominant hybrid quarterback, Tebow and Urban Mey-er laughed their way to a National and Tebow to the Heisman Tro-

phy. At Florida Tebow was the most popular collegiate athlete and a perfect transition from Vince Young and Reg-gie Bush as the most explosive offensive player at a major pro-gram. He was good for the game, and as much as you hate him and thought of his potential as a pro, you feared him if you were a fan of any SEC school or national contender. Now after one good, but statistically awful season in Denver and a nightmare of a 2012 with the New York Jets that saw Tebow suffer the humiliation of be-ing a gimmick for the entire season in max coverage punt protec-tion on special teams and as a Wildcat quar-terback, he is back to haunt our news wires for another season as he moves to the New England Patriots Evil Empire. All week the majority of the media coverage for the NFL was Tebow oriented despite many of the NFL’s teams also being at minicamp. The NFL Network might as well have had a Tebow marathon where they

showed his Top Ten Best Direct Punt Snaps of 2012. All of this attention for a player that lets all face it, can barely throw a football. Tim Tebow is never going to be an elite player in the NFL as a passer. It is time that everyone stops lying to themselves. We knew it in college and some bought into his run-ning back frame and thought he would prog-ress once placed into the NFL talent and coaching pool, but it hasn’t panned out yet and I don’t think it will ever happen. In his one good sea-son in Denver when he led the Broncos to the playoffs he had an aw-ful QB rating of 72.9 yet the majority of the media still drank the Tebow Kool-Aid. Ev-eryone “Tebowed” and willingly forgot to bring up the fact they were watching a guy with six interceptions and a 46.5 completion per-centage. It was fun and he was good at bring-ing his team back from the dead at the end of the game and in turn his teammates seemed to play better for him, establishing his repu-tation as a leader of men. That didn’t stop the Broncos from go-ing and getting Pey-ton Manning and that didn’t stop the Jets and Rex Ryan from starting Mark Sanchez as his career was imploding in front of our very eyes and much of the Jets fanbase and the New

York media was clam-oring for Tebow. There is a reason for that and the reason is that he just isn’t very good despite the fact that everyone wants him to still be a superhero like he was playing against college kids in Florida. Tebow’s squeaky clean image and Chris-tianity ensures that he is going to be a popular fi gure in the media un-til his career comes to an end, his highlight reel and winning record will ensure that there will also be a coach or GM that is willing to give him a chance. But it is time to stop paying this much attention to a guy with the talent of a backup to third string quarterback. Did Brad Smith get this much love? There is always a place for a guy with a good personality and who serves as a posi-tive role model for kids to get more publicity than he deserves be-cause he is a nice guy and is great person, but there are countless examples of guys with high character and more talent in the NFL that get ignored each and every year as the Tebow circle jerk rolls on. How is that fair? Should all of the posi-tive media coverage in the NFL be directed to Tebow the majority of the time? The media will keep pumping out the Tebow news, but you know I won’t be buying it. Call me a hater, but that is just me.

Role model or not, it is time to stop hyping Tim Tebow

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer After the Roughriders beat the Edmonton Eskimos 31-24 at Commonwealth Stadium in their first preseason game the dreaded cut day was soon to follow and for Yorkton’s Jordan Matechuk, one of the Raiders training camp invi-tees that will be on the bubble to make that regu-lar season roster, it is the most nervewracking day of the week. Luckily Matechuk made the cut as the Riders dropped eight players this Monday and added two of their key players to the IR as Corey Chamblin and the Riders prepare for their home preseason date with the Calgary Stampeders on Thursday night at Taylor Field. With Pat Neufeld and Mike McCullough being placed on the nine game injured reserve, the Riders huge loss at the front end was a blessing for those looking to make the team as two nine game roster auditions were put up for grabs as the top offensive linemen in Neufeld and McCullough at linebacker won’t count towards Chamblin’s final roster number until after their ninth game of the regular season. Cuts for the Riders after their game in Edmonton included; Import QB Levi Brown who was the Riders third stringer last season, Non-Import LB Aaron Crawford, Import WR Phillip Livas who fumbled a punt return that led to an Edmonton touchdown, Import LB Anthony Heygood, Import RB Stephfon Green, Import DB Chip Vaughn, Import DL Kenny Rowe, Non-Import DL David Rybinski. With six of the Riders cuts being Import players from the United States the Yorkton born Matechuk has an inside track over other players trying to crack the roster as his Canadian status means he would be a roster asset as the Riders would not have to burn an import spot on him if they were to bring him on as a special teams player or emer-gency longsnapper. With McCullough out that also means that room has opened up in the linebacker role, a spot that Matechuk is hoping he gets to showcase his abilities at as he has shown great vision in the open field in his CFL career, registering a high number of special teams tackles while playing for the Tiger Cats in his first regular CFL gig. Saskatchewan will be playing host to the Stampeders this week as Jon Cornish’s return to the Queen City will likely receive some good old fashioned boos from the Riders crowd even during a preseason game. A playoff rematch between two teams that don’t like each other will be a fun way to continue the preseason as the Riders prepare to make a Grey Cup run in 2013.

Our goal is to deliver value to our customers through world class service and differentiated products. Based in Winnipeg, we have locations throughout Western Canada and are currently seeking dynamic and experienced individuals to join our Rycroft, Alberta team to support our continued growth.

Facility General Manager

We are seeking a motivated professional to oversee and direct all operations at our Rycroft facility, responsible for high level planning in terms of budgets, administration, scheduling and operations. This position also includes a seed purchasing function in the Peace Region that works closely with the Production Team to build relationships, procure acres for forage and turf seed and coordinate the scheduling of deliveries as per production requirements.

The ideal candidate will have experience and knowledge of seed industry quality standards with an understanding of the certification required by all regulatory authorities. Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, this position will conduct regular review and follow-up of facility financial statements, market analysis, forecasting and performance tracking in the region.

Post-secondary education in business or agriculture are required for this position with a minimum five years experience in an equivalent position in the agriculture or seed industry, with progressive experience managing people and building relationships. License for Approved Conditioner Operator, Authorized Exporter Operator and accreditation for Grader is an asset.

Seed Production Specialist

We are seeking a relationship-oriented sales professional with a passion for agronomy. You will work with the Production Team to seek out and secure seed production acres for forage and turf seed to achieve company seed production targets and then work with these contract growers on production agronomics to help ensure yields and seed quality are maximized.

This position also includes a seed purchasing function in the Peace Region that works closely with the Production Team to build relationships, procure acres and coordinate the scheduling of deliveries as per production requirements to achieve territory and corporate goals. Thus, success in this position will be achieved through a balance of sales and agronomy. You will work independently within your territory from the Rycroft facility/your home-based office; you will also work with Regional Account Managers in our Seed and Crop Inputs (Retail) division that operate in your territory to help identify potential contract growers.

The successful candidate will have a proven ability to plan and manage his/her time effectively and have strong communication skills both internally and externally to promote, support and grow our Seed Production division.
