EDITORIAL Lest We Forget

Every year on November 11th we take pause to remember those that have

given so much to fight our past wars for us. When I was a child being taught

about Remembrance Day, I thought that “Remembrance” and “Lest We For-

get” were phrases we learnt to keep alive the memory of these people.

But it is more than that.

They said that World War One was the war to end all wars.

But then came World War Two, then Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq,

and on, and on, and on. I have since learnt that war will never be over.

November 11th is not just a day to remember the brave men and women of

the past but to also remember the things that cause these wars.

When Osama bin Laden orchestrated the attacks of 9-11 in the US, giving

birth to the evolutions of Al Qaeda, ISIL, ISIS and lone wolf attacks that

have followed, it seemed the world was at war again. Even after the US

assassinated bin Laden, the war he started still continues.

Armed with the power of the internet and social media, others have stepped

up to replace him, and continue to reach out to those that are vulnerable,

uneducated, unemployed, hungry or just plain unstable, and indoctrinate

them into acting out the sick, radical obsessions that they are promoting.

When Cpl. Corillo was so cowardly attacked at the War Memorial in Ot-

tawa, it drove home again, for me, the fact that war continues every day.

The thing we really need to remember is that war will never be over.

We will never have the war to end all wars. There will always be another

Hitler, bin Laden, whoever, to replace the previous one. And as long as

there are human beings on this planet, there will always be someone, or

some group, that becomes obsessed with power and wants to take over the

world. We will always be fighting against those that do not want people to

live free and in peace, and are willing to die themselves to take it from us.

This is what we must never forget.

Freedom is not free.

We should enjoy our freedom every day, and not live in fear, but as

Canadians, we must always ‘stand on guard for thee’ or risk losing every-

thing that those before us fought so hard for, and gave their lives for.

Lest We Forget....

On October 22, 2014 the Town of Delisle

held an election for two Councillor posi-

tions that were open due to the recent res-

ignations of Councillors Rob Oullette and Derek

Kirsch.

Four residents were running for the remaining

two year terms on the open seats on council and

two were elected with the following results:

RYAN KING - 81 (elected)

CARY BRUNETT - 72 (elected)

DENIS MAHUSSIER - 38

LORREL ELIAN - 35

120 total votes were cast, which is less than 20%

of eligible voters, with one rejected ballot.

The Village of

Vanscoy has

passed a new Ve-

hicle Bylaw. The

biggest change is the

creation of a winter no

parking zone on Ray-

burn Avenue between

Main Street & 1st

Street W.

from Oct. 30 to Apr. 30.

This is the street that

runs parallel to High-

way 7 in front of the

Vanscoy Hotel.

The street is very nar-

row, which becomes an

issue in the winter

months, as snow clear-

ing equipment cannot

fit down the street if

cars are parked on it.

Additional snow, from

clearing adjacent High-

way 7, also gets pushed

onto the street, further

narrowing it.

The Village is aware of

the inconvenience this

may cause residents on

Rayburn Avenue, but

advises that there is

extra parking on the

recreation grounds.

Prairie Spirit Schools EnrolmentIncreases by almost 300 Students

dents in its 45 schools

The 2014/15 school

year marks the ninth

consecutive year of stu-

dent enrolment growth

in the school division.

Since the school divi-

sion was formed

tion of three school di-

visions in 2006, stu-

dent enrolment has

increased by 16%, an

increase of approxi-

mately 1,400 students.

The greatest increases

in student enrolment

are in schools in the

cities of Warman and

Martensville.

Prairie Spirit School

Division covers a wide

geographic area, north

to Leask, south to Han-

ley, east to Colonsay

and west to Perdue.

Prairie Spirit includes

towns and villages and

growing cities like

Warman and

Martensville.

The school division also

includes nine Hutterite

SCHOOL REPORTS

PIKE LAKE PRESCHOOL

DELISLE COMPOSITE SCHOOL

PIKE LAKE SCHOOL

October has been a fun and busy month

at Pike Lake Preschool. We started off

the month with a field trip to the West-

ern Development Museum where the

kids enjoyed a horse and buggy ride. We

also saw a few farm animals, the ducks

being the favourite! Then we got some

time to explore inside the museum. The

field trip led to a unit for the 4-year olds

on different types of animals. They

made horses, jellyfish, and tigers, with a

forest animal still to come.

We also celebrated Thanksgiving mak-

ing paper plate turkeys and handprint

turkeys where we wrote what we are

thankful for on the feathers.

Both groups also celebrated Orange Day

making pumpkins and pumpkin chains,

eating orange food, and playing "orange"

games. For Number 2 Day, the 3-year

olds made a bat and counted many body

parts that come in 2s. The 4-year olds

glued pairs of items on a big 2.

Our Halloween parties will be this

Thursday. Our bats are on the walls al-

ready and there's a big witch to put up

as well, thanks to an anonymous donor.

The 3-year olds will be parading at Pike

Lake School in the morning and the 4-

year olds will join Pike Lake School in

the afternoon for some Halloween activi-

ties. I can't wait to see all the costumes!

November will find us cele-

brating the number 3 and

the colour brown. We will

also be having a space day

and our annual pajama

day. The 4-year olds will

be doing a health unit,

learning about germs, den-

tal health (a good topic, es-

pecially right after

Halloween!), nutrition, and

emotions.

Have a happy Halloween!

We are in the full swing of learning at

Pike Lake School. September flew by in

a blur and October continues to be filled

with activity and learning; we partici-

pated in an amazing school wide Gym

Blast, celebrated Education Week, and

ventured out on our first field trip to the

Persephone Theatre in Saskatoon to

watch an awesome rendition of the clas-

sic tale of Pinocchio. What a busy and

exciting time for learning!

In recognition of the Education Week

theme “Supporting and Celebrating Suc-

cess,” Pike Lake School participated in

numerous activities marking this most

important of weeks. Kicking off our week

of celebrating education, was a full day

visit from aboriginal artist Ray Keigh-

ley. Mr. Keighley led students through

an art workshop focused around the

Medicine Wheel. In the course of the

day, Mr. Keighley also shared some riv-

eting stories about his experiences with

nature and his experiences as an artist.

All members of Pike Lake School were

fascinated and so grateful to have the

opportunity to learn about creating art

in a new way and to learn more about

the native culture from Ray Keighley.

On the 21st and 22nd of October the

area of Learning Support was high-

lighted at Pike Lake School. Much of

our student success can be attributed to

the support from the many resources we

have available to us in the Prairie Spirit

School Division (PSSD). These include

various aspects of our Special Education

Resource Team (Occupational Therapist,

Speech and Language Pathologist, Reg-

istered Psychologist, Counsellor) as well

as our School Superintendent. The pro-

fessionals in each of the aforementioned

resources, provide us with direction and

the tools we need to best lead our stu-

dents towards success in their every

school day. We were fortunate to have

some of these important resource people

come to share with the staff and stu-

dents their role in supporting and cele-

brating student successes throughout

the year!

Speaking of great supports, every aca-

demic day, students are transported to

and from their homes by bus to attend

Pike Lake School. Our bus driver, Jean

Lingnau, provides for the safety and

wellbeing of each of her students travel-

ling on her bus daily. As an extension of

our school day, Jean is an integral part

of our school day and provides exem-

plary support for our students outside of

the classroom as they travel to and from

their school destination. We celebrated

our amazing and dedicated Bus Driver

on Wednesday, October 22nd and ac-

knowledged how Jean conscientiously

fulfils her role as a bus driver in our

community.

To cap off our Education Week Fes-

tivities we celebrated the completion of

two large school projects. These were

achieved as result of the partnership

with school, the wonderful Pike Lake

School Community Council and the Pike

Lake Community as a whole. As many

local residents are aware, Pike Lake

School marked its 100th Anniversary in

the spring of 2013! Indeed, we have been

successful in educating our community

for a very long time! Part of this celebra-

tion included collecting and framing pen-

nies for each year of our 100 year

existence. The plaque is now on display

in our school hallway. During Education

Week we enjoyed a presentation about

the penny project. Moreover, each stu-

dent received a “lucky” penny keepsake

to make a wish in regards to their aca-

demic success and growth in the coming

school year.

The final celebration of Education

Week was the much anticipated installa-

tion of the new swing set for our Pike

Lake School playground. On Friday, Oc-

tober 24th, 2014 at 1:00 p.m., a group of

handy volunteers along with PSSD staff

members joined with wrenches, wheel

barrows, and ladders, to erect our new

swing set! So exciting! Thank you so

much to everyone who volunteered and

do know our school is so thankful to our

community. We could not thrive in the

manner that we do, without the dedi-

cated support of our surrounding Pike

Lake Community!

On Wednesday, November 5th our

school will be holding our annual assem-

bly to honor our Canadian Veterans and

Peacekeepers. We encouragingly invite

you to attend this assembly which will

begin at 10:45 a.m. and is open to the

general public. We hope to see you there

to help us pay tribute those who have

fought in all the wars and to those who

are currently helping with peacekeeping

efforts.

The month of October was a busy one for

our school, the SRC held a fundraiser to

help pay for the cost of a new sound sys-

tem for our gym, we would like to thank

all of our students and parents who con-

tributed to this fundraiser. Every dollar

helps! We would also like to thank all of

our students who took part in our spirit

week at the end of the month, we appre-

ciate all of those who show school spirit

and dress up! The SRC has organized

school clothing this past

month, if you are interested

in sizing please contact the

school and ask for Alexi.

October was also a busy

month for all of our sports

teams. The senior girls’ vol-

leyball team hosted a home

tournament on October

25th, and the junior girls’

volleyball team made it to

playoffs in Martensville.

The cross country team fin-

ished with a silver medal in

2A. The football team had a

few games this past month,

but most recently played

October 17th and defeated

Kindersley.

On November 6th, DCS is

holding our annual legion tea and con-

cert at 7:00 pm, there will be perform-

ances by the drama group, choir, hand

bells, and elementary students. Also on

November 6th, We Day is also being

held at the Credit Union Centre, though

we only have 20 tickets for our students,

there is still a volunteer option that is

open to any student willing to give their

time and still enjoy the show.

VANSCOY SCHOOLSince the beginning of the school year,

the staff and students at Vanscoy School

have been busy participating in a variety

of activities and planning for campaigns

and upcoming events within the school

and in the surrounding community. So

far, students have participated in a

number of activities such as Cross-Coun-

try, in which students from grade 4-8

participated in daily noon hour runs as

well as competing and doing very well in

a number of meets including Langham

and districts in Delisle. Grade 7 and 8

students participated and competed in a

number of golf events throughout Sep-

tember. Students also did very well in

these competitions. Other sports that

have been taking place in the school

have been grade 7/8 boys and girls vol-

leyball and students are enjoying play-

ing in exhibition games against teams

from the area including Asquith and

Perdue. The Pass, Punt and Kick pro-

gram has been a success seeing students

participate and place very well in the

competition. Congratulations to all stu-

dents who participated and took part in

all of the athletics so far in the year.

Keep up the good work.

In other events, students have been busy

fundraising and organizing for the Terry

Fox Run where they raised over $6600!

Some of the incentives that students re-

ceived as a result of their hard work

were a school wide trip to a Corn Maze,

pizza parties in the grade 5 and 7/8

classrooms courtesy of the Torresan

Family. Students also raised enough to

watch Mr. Derdall and Mr. Mackay have

their heads shaved and for other staff

members to kiss a pig. Thank you to the

Torresan family for providing the pizza

lunches, Grant Rourke for offering his

barbering skills and to the McMorrow

family for providing the piglet for staff to

smooch.

Students are currently participating in a

fundraising campaign for UNICEF and

plan to surpass their goal from last year

in which the school raised the third

highest amount in the province. Stu-

dents have been busy organizing snack

sales and other fundraising activities to

raise money for the campaign, which

continue till the end of October.

In upcoming events, 23 students from

grade 6-8 will be participating in WE

Day, which is coming to Saskatoon No-

vember 7th. 23 students were chosen to

participate in the global event and those

attending from Vanscoy school were cho-

sen based on volunteer activities and

participation in a variety of events in

and around the school community.

Students will also be honoring veterans

by holding a Remembrance Day service

on November 6th where staff and stu-

dents will be treated to a performance by

the schools Glee Club.

Thanks to all who contributed and par-

ticipated in all events happening at

Vanscoy School.

Vanscoy School Reports Record $6,600Donation to Terry Fox Foundation

Vanscoy School

has raised

over $6600 for

the Terry Fox Foun-

dation this fall. For

this Kindergarten to

Grade 8 school with

155 students, this

impressive fundrais-

ing total is equiva-

lent to about $40 per

student.

"The spirit of Terry

Fox is alive and well

in the hearts of stu-

dents at Vanscoy

School,” explained

Vice-Principal Darin

McKay. He said

there is a culture of

respect and admira-

tion for Terry Fox at

the school as the stu-

dents are well aware

of Fox’s bravery and

sacrifice.

Each year, Vanscoy

School embarks on a

fundraising cam-

paign to raise money

for the Terry Fox

Foundation. This

year, the school’s

senior students set

up fundraising incen-

tives to encourage

students in their ef-

forts. The school

passed all three

fundraising mile-

stones and therefore

the students earned

all three rewards on

Thursday, October 9:

touring a corn maze

tour, teachers kiss-

ing a pig and shaving

the heads of the

Principal and Vice-

Principal. “It was a

fantastic day for

everyone,” said

McKay.

Fundraising efforts

included collecting

pledges, a bake sale,

a lemonade sale and

a pancake breakfast.

“Although it was the

student body raising

the money, the entire

community gets be-

hind the event,”

McKay added.

In addition, the

school hosted a Terry

Fox Walk on Septem-

ber 24. A circular

course was set up

around town for par-

ticipants to walk or

run around. Know-

ing Terry's work

ethic, many people

chose to run multiple

laps around the

course.

McKay said the

fundraising for Terry

Fox is in addition to

the school’s work for

UNICEF and the Di-

abetes Association.

In fact, Vanscoy

School is one of the

top three schools in

the province in terms

of funds raised for

UNICEF.

Remembrance Day - November 11, 2014

“3:00”by Rhys M.

Waiting by the window

Excitement pouring out of me

Food on the table

House cleaned

2:58

Two minutes till his arrival

My fingers tingling

2:59

Did anything go wrong?

Is he in one peace?

A taxi pulls up

A tall figure appears

Is it him?

It has to be

The rain hides his face

I run out to him

No shoes

I don’t care

I need to see him

It’s not my son

He hands me a letter

My little boy didn’t make it

He didn’t survive the war

“Remember”by Remington S.

Remember…

They went…

They fought…

The sacrifice…

Remember…

They went…

They ran…

They jumped…

They hid…

They went…

They fought…

They battled…

They walked…

They shot…

They fought…

The sacrifice…

Chance of injury…

Chance of capture…

Chance of death…

The sacrifice…

Remember…

They went…

They fought…

The sacrifice…

Remember… “Was It Worth It?”

By Meagan K.

Looking back

Was it worth it?

The pain, sacrifice and dying

The graveyards of thousands, some unknown

The explosions, the demolished homes

Was it worth it?

The fear and horror that was everywhere

The families that lost members

The nightmares the soldiers brought home

Was it worth it?

We now Remember

The last post, poppies, the moment of silence

The laying of wreaths, lest we forget

The courage, bravery of fighting for our country

To keep our rights, freedom and peace

Was it worth it?

The world is still in turmoil

The terrorists, shootings, violence

Some problems remain unsolved

So was it really worth it?

It is always worth it

To keep our land glorious and free.

“Remember the People”by Nolan W.

The soldiers who fought for us

Allowed us to have

This country that we live in

And let us have the ability

To choose for ourselves

How we want to live our lives

They laid their lives down on the line

For our freedom

As well as

Everyone else’s freedom

The people who fought for us

Really believed that what they were fighting for

Was truly right

In the years wars raged on

We as a country found hope

We stuck together through the hardest times

The people were strong and proud of our country Remembrance Dayby Brendan C.

I remember

How WW1 and WW2

Affected the world

But it never stops.

War is a disease

That can never be cured

With lives of the men and women

That fight in the war

Why we fight for freedom.

“To be a Canadian”by Jordan T.

We sit here and think about

All the things

That all the courageous people have done

They help this world

To make it a better place

I wish that I can shake a veteran’s hand

And say thank you

For all the things they have done

I wonder why,

Why did they do such a nice thing?

They make me feel proud

To see my friends everyday

To live in my house

To live in Canada

To be a Canadian.

“A poem to my daddy”by Brooklyn C.

Daddy please come home

That’s why I’m writing you this pome

Why are you so far away?

Tomorrow is my 15th birthday

Mommy misses you

And I miss you too

Hey how was your day

Today is my birthday!!

I love you

And mommy loves you too

Now mommy is crying

I don’t want to think about you dying

But yet we got a letter

People keep saying that it will get better

Now I know my daddy isn’t coming home

Why do I feel so alone?

I wear a poppy day after day

I really wish that you could have stayed

“Lonesome Soldier”by Connor J.

How can you leave?

It’s the right thing.

We will always remember.

You know I will come back,

You have to be strong.

We will be strong.

When I left the air was crisp, and cold.

People wished me the best.

I felt like I was the lonesome soldier.

I knew I wasn’t, I was with thousands of others.

They felt the same way too.

They told me how lonesome they were,

And how their families loved them.

When I returned,

My family wasn’t there.

Our house was destroyed,

Much the same as others.

I know millions will remember.

But now I know,

I was the lonesome, but remembered,

Soldier.

“Reminder”by Logan M.

What do we remember?

Do we need to remember to get some milk from the store?

Feed the dog?

Do the dishes?

Or do we remember who gave us the freedom to do so

The men and women who gave their lives

We remember them on this special day

November eleventh at eleven o’clock

When we take our moment of silence

We remember

What happens when we forget?

What happens when we do?

We try to remember

We realize the contributions they made

And we remember

Some of us just need a reminder

“Family”by Matthew N.

At night,

I am restless

I cannot sleep without remembering

The rattle of gunfire

The thunderous explosions

The desperate cries for help from fallen soldiers

I remember being terrified

Terrified of the enemy

Terrified of not going home

Terrified of not seeing another peaceful day

I had a family, now I am alone

The men I fought beside

Once again we will be together

But yet, not living

“To be loved”by Lynnaya S.

The tears in my mom’s eyes

As I pull out of the driveway

My dad stood proud

My best friend by my side

Both of us scared not knowing what’s going to happen

Panic roaming through our minds

I can see fear in my friend’s eyes

As we drive by seeing all families crying

Soldiers getting in trucks

Saluting fellow soldiers

As the truck stops we all get out

We step onto the battlefield

Gun shots firing everywhere

Soldiers screaming in pain

Wounded soldiers surround the battlefield

This war has come to an end

All I can think of is the families left behind

We served our country

There I stand proud with my fellow soldiers

Proud to be Canadian

To be free

To be welcome

To be loved

We Wear A Poppyby Sydney S.

We wear a poppy to show how much we care.

We wear a poppy to remember.

We wear a poppy to show respect.

We wear a poppy for the soldiers.

We were a poppy for their family.

We wear a poppy for freedom.

We wear a poppy for the life’s that were taken.

We wear a poppy for all the soldiers that came back.

We wear a poppy for the moms and dads.

We wear a poppy for the kids.

I wear a poppy and you should to.

“The Soldierby Chayla U.

Once a soldier by the shore

Watch the sunrise and the sunset

Thinking life is all a bet

All the fortune and all the fame

Is one’s life just a game

Freedom costs such a price

Is war worth the sacrifice

They fought for their lives to live in peace

Even though our soldiers would decrease

So wear a poppy to show that we care

For all the loved ones that are out there

Many soldiers in the battle lost their life

Because they wanted to protect their wife

Staring at the field of poppies

Knowing there are thousands of bodies

Soldiers did their part

But they loved each other from their heart

“Remember”by Chloe S.

Love

yourself, people, soldiers, enemies

Hope

never stop believing

Happiness

right around the corner from sadness

War

should be stopped

Killing

we are no better than the enemy

Remember

so it doesn’t happen again

Love

Remembranceby Nigel S.

Remember, remember the 11th of November.

End of World War 1.

Most soldiers died during this war.

Everyone was mournful.

Many families lost dads, husbands and brothers.

But even though it’s over, witnesses will suffer.

Right before the soldiers’ eyes innocent people lost their lives.

And still people live in pain hoping war won’t start again.

Now we sell poppies to raise money to help ex-soldiers and their families.

Come and buy poppies to remember all those who lost their lives in Flanders Field.

Every time it’s the 11th day of the 11th month, take two minutes to remember war.

“I sit there bleeding”by Josh N.

I sit there bleeding on the ground

My heart is pounding

No one else is near me now

I need some help

The sounds of war still rage away

I fear that I will die alone

All I do is recede into my own mind

As my body begins to fade my mind becomes stronger

I think of my experiences and things that I have done

I haven’t done enough

There’s so much left to do

That I will never see because of the choices that I made

The life I lived was short albeit good

The death I died was proud

Fighting for my country

People might think I’m stupid

People might think I don’t know what I’m doing

I know exactly what I’m doing

I sit there bleeding on the ground

Went the day well ?

We died and never knew.

But, well or ill,

Freedom, we died for you.John Maxwell Edmonds

The dead soldier's silence

sings our national anthem.

Land of the free,

because of the brave

We come,

not to mourn

our dead soldiers,

but to praise them.

But the freedom that they fought for,

and the country grand they wrought for,

Is their monument today,

and for aye.

And they who for their country die

shall fill an honored grave,

for glory lights the soldier's tomb,

and beauty weeps the brave.

Livestock producers

make a myriad of

daily decisions dur-

ing the course of a year to

produce a product to be

sold. On occasion, know-

ing which of the decisions

enhanced profits and

which decisions were

costly, is relatively clear.

More often than not, deci-

sions are made without a

clear indication whether

the course of action was

the best possible outcome.

Calculating your actual

cost of pro-

duction is

one example

of a manage-

ment activity

that can gen-

erate signifi-

cant value. If

you do not

know what

your cost of

production

is, how do

you know

what level

your market-

ing effort

must obtain in order to

break even and generate

a profit? An excellent re-

source to assist in calcu-

lating your cost of

production is available on

the Western Beef Devel-

opment Center website

:http://www.wbdc.sk.ca/ec

onomics_current.htm#cop

now

Beyond generating a

break even, analyzing the

information used to do the

calculations by comparing

various parameters

against industry bench-

marks can assist produc-

ers in deciding where

changes could be made to

further enhance prof-

itability. Participating in

the western Canadian

Cow-Calf survey is one

way to see how your pro-

duction system compares

in relation to other pro-

ducers across western

Canada. The survey can

be done online

http://www.wbdc.sk.ca/wc

ccs.htm or by hard copy.

All information is kept

confidential and aggre-

gated for reporting pur-

poses. For participating

you can choose to receive

a report summarizing

your productivity meas-

urements which can be

compared directly against

the aggregated averages.

Knowing the weight of an

animal has value at sev-

eral points during the

course of production. Ac-

tual birth and weaning

weights can assist with

evaluating past bull pur-

chases in order to make

decisions regarding future

bull purchases. Accurate

doses of parasite control

products can be used

when the weight is

known, avoiding costs as-

sociated with over appli-

cation or the

consequences of poor

product performance if

not enough product is ap-

plied. Marketing decisions

become easier to make

when weights can be

taken rather than guessti-

mated by eye. The

Saskatchewan Livestock

Traceability Rebate can

assist with the purchase

of equipment used for

tracking, such as ultra-

rugged IP67 rugged scale

heads and scanners.

For further discussion

regarding cost of produc-

tion, benchmarking or the

livestock traceability re-

bate contact your

Saskatchewan Ministry of

Agriculture Regional

Livestock Specialist or

call the Agriculture

Knowledge Centre at

1-866-457-2377.

Youth often think that

studying agriculture

in university means

becoming a farmer. How-

ever, agriculture is not just

farming but can lead to

many other opportunities.

One in eight Canadian jobs

are involved in agriculture

or the agri-food sector, and

that’s more than 50,000

jobs in Saskatchewan.

Taking agriculture in uni-

versity can lead to several

exciting careers such as a

food scientist, veterinarian,

accountant, sales represen-

tative, farmer and others.

Even if you are not certain

about going into agricul-

ture, take an introductory

course in university. Get-

ting a taste of agriculture

may just make you want to

take more courses. It is

key to find an area that in-

terests you, whether its

livestock, marketing or

agronomy.

I grew up gaining experi-

ence in the best of both

worlds; growing up on a

farm and studying agricul-

ture in university. I was

already on the agriculture

path when I completed

high school, but then I took

my first entomology course

at the University of Mani-

toba, and I was hooked!

From there, my interest in

agriculture took off. There

are issues in agriculture, as

in any industry, and being

one of the people creating

solutions – that’s exciting!

During the Canadian West-

ern Agribition (CWA),

there will be a thinkAG Ca-

reer and Education Expo in

the morning and afternoon

of November 26 and 27,

2014. These half-day work-

shops are focused towards

Grade 9 through Grade 12

students, giving an intro-

duction to the agriculture

industry, information on

industry labour and why

agriculture matters (more

than ever). Students will

be given a hands-on look of

agriculture on the various

career paths as well as in-

formation on post-sec-

ondary education.

Teachers must register

their classes before October

18, 2014 using the form

available on www.agribi-

tion.com/thinkag-career-

expo.

Recent university gradu-

ates often wonder whether

they made the right choice

with their degree. How-

ever, even if you did not

take agriculture in univer-

sity, various science or

business degrees with

proper experience will help.

Agriculture is constantly

evolving. Whether you’re

working for a crop input

company, implement

dealer, marketing or ac-

counting firm, or even the

government in the Ministry

of Agriculture, the opportu-

nities are endless.

careers in agriculture talk

ance counsellor or contact

Are you finding

there isn’t enough

time to get it all

done in a day? Technol-

ogy today is making it

easier and less stressful

to multitask. Smart-

phones are changing the

way farmers do business.

You can now bring your

office with you. With your

smartphone you now have

visibility into the com-

pany’s finances, access to

important documents, a

more effective method of

communication, and the

ability to track many dif-

ferent parts of your opera-

tion.

There are many apps a

farm manager may find

useful. To name a few:

online banking apps, apps

that work in conjunction

with Farm Credit Canada

software, an app for live-

stock producers called

CFXpro and Farm at

Hand that allows you to

track your production.

These apps will allow the

farmer to be more produc-

tive and efficient in the

way they manage their

operation.

Online banking has be-

come more and more pop-

ular over the last several

years and now most

banks have smartphone

apps. The apps will allow

you to pay bills, transfer

between accounts, man-

age your payees and com-

plete e-transfers. You no

longer have to go into the

bank to complete your

daily transactions or wait

to log on to a computer;

you can complete these

transactions on the go.

Farm Credit Canada has

created smartphone apps

that compliment some of

their software programs.

AgExpert Mobile works in

tandem with AgExpert

analyst software. This

app will allow you to take

a picture of a receipt and

record the transaction de-

tails. This handy app will

help to minimize lost re-

ceipts. Also, transactions

will be recorded in a

timely manner, which will

keep your financial state-

ments current.

Livestock producers can

access information to aid

in the decision of market-

ing cattle from an app

called CFXpro. The fea-

tures of this app include

breakeven calculators,

price projections based on

market info and access to

futures market. This app

is available to iPhone and

Blackberry users at no

charge. Visit your app

store and search CFXpro

to start using it today.

Farm at Hand is an app

that allows you to track

many parts of your farm-

ing operation. You can

create a detailed fields list

and log all your activities

from seeding to harvest.

This allows you to keep

up to date production

records. You can also

track your commodities

from storage to contracts

to deliveries. You can also

create a detailed equip-

ment list. The list would

include serial numbers,

parts log and mainte-

nance log. Never be stuck

without a part number or

serial number. This app

allows you to have infor-

mation about your opera-

tion at your fingertips.

There is an app for almost

anything. To find more

agriculture apps visit

your app store and search

agriculture. There are

apps for weed identifica-

tion, monitoring equip-

ment, grain storage

tracking, mix tank calcu-

lators and many more.

You will be surprised by

all the results.

Food for ThoughtWealth Inequality

Whenever the media want to stir the

blood they can list the salaries of the

top CEOs. Some have reached the

level of 200 times the take-home pay of their

average employee. But the issue does not stop

there because that is only a small fraction of

the wealth held by the top ten percent of the

population. I have been reading the tomb

“Capital in the Twenty-first Centry” by

Thomas Picketty, the French economist who

defines the extent of the problem.

The accumulation of wealth by a segment of

the population is not new. As a matter

of fact, in the Victorian Age it was more

unbalanced than it is today. It took the

First and Second World Wars to bleed

some of it away. However since the

1970s the trend has been moving up

sharply and there are no signs of the

spread between the super-rich and the

middle class individuals is tapering off.

According to Picketty this current pe-

riod of slow growth accentuates the dif-

ference because wealth continues to

grow while productivity which fuels

middle class incomes is more or less

stagnant.

For North Americans we can just

grumble about our individual need for

more income, however in many coun-

tries where unemployment ranges as

high as 25% the accumulation of

wealth whether by inheritance, smart

investment or corruption is the basis

for revolution and general civil unrest.

When politicians are throwing around

statements about why this or that

country is sliding into a dysfunctional

state they might be more specific. If

there is a wide discrepancy in income

and little opportunity for the lower lev-

els to make improvements the only an-

swer may be revolt. If a religious

fervor is the focus, as with the ISO and

others, then the reaction can be more

violent. One wonders if bombing these

people is the beset or even recom-

mended answer.

Opinions expressed here are those

of the author.

Every year, from the last

Friday in October to Re-

membrance Day, The

Legion conducts the Poppy

Campaign. Poppies blossom on

the lapels and collars of over

half of Canada’s entire popula-

tion.

Each November, The Poppy

Campaign inspires Canadians

to remember.

In Canada, the poppy has

stood as a visual symbol of

our Remembrance since

1921. However, its pres-

ence over the graves of sol-

diers, and in the fields of

honour, was noted as early

as the 19th century after

the Napoleonic Wars. The

reason for its adoption over

100 years later in Canada

was due to, in no small

part, Lieutenant-Colonel

John McCrae and his now

famous poem, “In Flanders

Fields”.

Every year, Canadians

have generously donated to

The Poppy Campaign to

support the services The

Legion provides and to

clearly show their recogni-

tion of the debt owed to so

many Canadians

who gave their lives

for our freedom.

This year, I hope

that you will proudly

wear your poppy in

remembrance of all

those who have

given their lives for

our freedom.

RM Review 13November 2014www.rmreview.net

Our Government’s Speech from the

Throne opened the Fourth Session

of the Twenty-Seventh Legislature

in Regina. The Speech highlighted our

strong, growing province, the strength

and determination of our people and out-

lined our plan to keep Saskatchewan

strong.

Our focus is the economy. When our

economy is strong, our province and its

people are strong. A strong economy gives

us a broader tax base and more resources

to invest in health care, housing, educa-

tion, infrastructure and a better quality of

life for individuals and families.

Our government will continue with in-

ternational engagement and trade mis-

sions, as well as our work to reduce

barriers and expand free trade. We are

also working to ensure opportunities for

local businesses are maximized within ex-

isting trade agreements. Priority

Saskatchewan, a new agency, is leading a

cross-government review of current ten-

dering practices.

Saskatchewan is an exporting province.

To help meet our government’s goal of

doubling exports by 2020, we will intro-

duce a new growth tax incentive tied to

the creation of new jobs by manufacturers

and processors as they expand sales out-

side Saskatchewan. This will also include

an incentive tied to the creation of new

corporate and head office jobs in

Saskatchewan.

A strong Saskatchewan requires a

strong, skilled workforce. Employment

numbers have hit record highs and unem-

ployment has reached record lows – which

is good – but we continue to face a short-

age of skilled labour. In some cases, peo-

ple are unable to compete for jobs because

they lack the skills required to secure em-

ployment. This is why we have invested

heavily in Adult Basic Education (ABE).

This coming fiscal year, we will again in-

crease the number of ABE training seats

to a total of 9,355 while boosting appren-

ticeship seats to a total of 7,000.

Our government is committed to tack-

ling our province’s infrastructure deficit.

Since 2008, nearly $16 billion has been

spent on capital projects that include hos-

pitals, highways, schools and power

plants. This year alone nearly $3 billion

has been committed to renew and expand

infrastructure but there is still more to do.

To meet those challenges, we are leverag-

ing the forces of innovation and competi-

tion through the use of public private

partnerships (P3s). SaskBuilds has al-

ready initiated a number of P3s that will

save millions of dollars.

Municipalities should also consider the

P3 approach to access funding through

the federal government’s new $53 billion

Building Canada Fund (BCF). To help

them take advantage of this, our govern-

ment is reintroducing and expanding the

popular Saskatchewan Infrastructure

Growth Initiative (SIGI). The program

provides interest rate subsidies for up to

five years on municipal borrowing for in-

frastructure development. The original

program, which provided nearly $200 mil-

lion in borrowing to the benefit 82 com-

munities, will also be opened to

Saskatchewan First Nations.

Other measures in outlined in the Throne

Speech include:

An options paper and public consulta-

tion process on private liquor retailing in

Saskatchewan;

Legislation to better protect patients’

privacy and medical records;

Legislation to help reduce wait times

for organ transplants;

Legislation to increase the scope of

services that can be provided by pharma-

cists;

Upgrades to internet access and speed

at regional colleges throughout the

province;

Improvements to high speed internet

and cell phone service in hundreds of

Saskatchewan communities;

Legislative changes to help police offi-

cers and the justice system better protect

victims of domestic violence;

Expansion of the HUB crime reduction

model;

A comprehensive review of child wel-

fare legislation that will lead to improve-

ments in laws that protect children;

Development of a Poverty Reduction

Strategy that builds on the government’s

significant efforts to reduce poverty;

Increased penalties for those who com-

mit hunting violations; and

A special licence plate for the loved

ones of Canadian Armed Forces personnel

who died in service.

These are among the many ways in which

we are working to keep Saskatchewan

strong. Our strength comes from our peo-

ple – their hard work, their determina-

tion, their ingenuity and their generosity

– and these values will keep

Saskatchewan strong and moving for-

ward.

November is such a great month for the Arts in

Delisle!

The Community Players are putting on their play,

Don’t Tell Mother on November 7th, 8th & 9th. The

7th & 8th are dinner Theatre nights, tickets are $30,

doors open @ 5:30, dinner at 6. The 9th is a Dessert

Theatre, tickets are $18, doors open at 12:30. Tickets

are available at the Town Office. Call Linda Kielo for

more info 493-2963.

The Friday Night Concert Series starts on the 28th!

Our Concert Series line up this year looks like another

great treat! Kicking off the series on November 28th is

Fire Lily a group of 5 women who all sing and play in-

struments. The image of them sends a chill down my

back, what a wonderful way to start things off.

Neil Roston a fabulous blues musician who hails from

Delisle will bring his Trio to the series on January

23rd.

March 27th I’m excited for Sylvia & Friends, one of

the most delightful concerts every year. This year I’m

hosting Elizabeth Bekolay and Josh Shultz, who use

many different elements in their music, from spoken

word, rapping, singing, flute, drums, guitar and more!

They will do some songs together and also perform sep-

arately.

Finally we will close the series out with Rosetown

based Cashback, a Johnny Cash tribute band. These

three musicians play wonderfully and spin so many

wonderful threads of stories and information through-

out their concert about themselves and the man in

black. If you’re a country fan, you won’t want to miss

this one.

Ticket prices have not changed since the series began

so many years ago and remain at $40 for all 4 con-

certs. Heck, you can hardly take the family out for din-

ner for that price anymore, if you would prefer to buy

single tickets at the door, they are $15. All the concerts

start at 7:30pm and are followed by an opportunity to

meet the artists and have coffee and treats. There will

be no potlucks this year before each concert.

If you have not ever purchased tickets I hope you will

consider coming out this year and seeing what it’s all

about. It’s so lovely to have events right in town, keep-

ing us off the highways and out of Walmart & Super-

store. (Yes, coming to the concert series, actually saves

you money! ) Make it a girl’s night out, or date night

and join us, bring all your friends, we’d love to have

you. Call Sylvia @ 306.493.2955 to reserve your tickets.

Mark your calendars for November 15th when we are

going to kick up our heels again and Learn to Dance.

This year we are concentrating on learning the basic

steps that will get everyone through a family wedding

dance or any such dancing event that might come up in

your life. So join us for the two-step, waltz and polka!

Remember, no babysitter needed, bring the whole fam-

ily along and if you think your dancing days are over,

just come along and enjoy the fun. 7-9pm at the Delisle

Senior Centre.

Arts Council Meetings are open to everyone so if you

are interested in bringing your ideas and energy to our

group, please call Sylvia @ 306.493.2955 to find out the

date of the next meeting, cause we would love to have

you.

Pike Lake resident

and business

woman, Karen

MacEwan organized her

first ever Pike Lake Busi-

ness Expo to showcase

the local business in Pike

Lake and surrounding

area.

It was held on Saturday

October 18th and ran

from 10am to 7pm.

The expo featured 25 dif-

ferent local businesses

plus a display of material

from 8 other businesses

that could not attend in

person.

The exhibitors ranged

from Pet Care and Home

Construction to Solar En-

ergy and Fashions.

Attendees were able to

enjoy the delicious cater-

ing from, Harris resident,

Pat Trask, as they wan-

dered through the ex-

hibits.

All of the proceeds from

the table rentals were do-

nated to the Pike Lake

Community and School

Association for upkeep of

the Pike Lake Commu-

nity Hall.

The Vanscoy Com-

munity Recreation

Board held the

draw for the Shiverdome

50/50 Lottery fundraiser

The lucky winner is Serge

Filion, who is new to the

area and is working at

Agrium. Serge wins half

of the $6,340 pot, with the

other half going towards

the installation of an Arti-

ficial Ice Plant in the

Vanscoy 'Shiverdome'

Arena.

The Vanscoy Community

Recreation Board thanks

everyone who bought tick-

ets to support their ef-

forts, and congratulates

Serge on his win.
