City boundaries expand: annexation dealBy DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The City of Yorkton is grow-ing yet again. The city’s bound-aries are expanding to the east, with the annexation of two quarter sections of land from the RM of Wallace. The impetus for the annexa-tion was the sale of the land to a private developer, who wished for the land to be made part of the City of Yorkton. Garry Liebrecht, Reeve of the RM of Wallace says that the developer approached the RM asking to

turn the land over to the city. “We told them right away there wouldn’t be a problem, we have a good relationship with the city,” Liebrecht says. The annexation comes soon after the annexation of land from the RM of Orkney, which was settled through the Saskatchewan Municipal Board. Liebrecht says his RM waited to see what the final decision was with Orkney so they knew what the standard rate was to make the transfer as easy as possible. Mayor James Wilson says

this decision saved rate payers the expense of negotiating the rate for the land. It will cost

the city $31,000 to bring the land within its boundaries, which is 12 times compensa-tion of what exists today. The plan for the land is not concrete, but will likely involve a mix of different development in the area, with a focus on residential. Wilson says the development will proceed in phases as demand dictates. The city will be working with the developer to make it as easy as possible for the devel-oper to bring their plan to frui-tion, and Wilson says that the developer has commented on

the relative ease of working with the city. This has been the second time in three years that the city and the RM have come to a land deal, and Wilson says that the relationship between Yorkton and the municipality has been strong over that time. Liebrecht adds that the RM wants to work with the city to get the most use out of the land and benefit citizens of both areas. “This is our city, we have to get along,” Liebrecht con-cludes.

SIGN BBQ – The Society for the Involvement of Good Neighbours has been a large part of Yorkton and area for 43 years, but some people might not be aware of what the organization does in the community. That’s why they recently held a community aware-ness barbecue in the city, to give people a chance to have fun, celebrate community and learn a bit more about the multitude of services and programs that SIGN administers throughout Yorkton. Pictured above, Paisley Duchek gets her face painted at the event.

Quick fact:Yorkton is the largest city in

east-central Sask., with an area of about 14,000 square miles.

– Bruce Croxon talks business

From Dragon’s Den – to YorktonBy DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce’s Business Dinner sold out this year, bringing the city’s business community out to see Bruce Croxon. Best known for Dragon’s Den and co-founding dating site Lavalife, Croxon spoke about what he sees as being important for business. Through Dragon’s Den, Croxon has seen many business ideas from through-out the country, and he says that Canada’s entrepreneurial spirit is reflected through the popularity of the program. “I firmly believe that Canadian entrepreneurs can hold their own with any-one in the world, I’ll stand by that and put my money behind it,” he says. Croxon spent the day in Yorkton with business people before his speech in the evening, and he says he’s impressed by what he’s hearing from people in the area. “I heard about the lean times that Saskatchewan went through, Yorkton no exception, and now I’m hearing about some exceptionally good times. You can feel the energy here. People are fired up, there’s opportunity around every corner, and I feel like the other areas of the country which are not as fortunate, need to get their butts to Saskatchewan, they need people to work. That’s a good place to be coming from,” he says. Part of the talk focused on teamwork. Croxon says that good employees who can be trusted are what keep businesses going and that it’s difficult for most people to do things on their own and succeed. “Anyone can make money when things are great. It’s when you hit the other side of the curve and you’re grinding that you really notice who you’ve got as a partner and a person who works with you.” While encouraged by the business envi-ronment in the area, Croxon says there are areas in need of improvement, spe-cifically when it comes to banks and loans. “Unless you’re making three mil-lion dollars a year and have been doing it for a while, the banks aren’t really inter-ested... My plea to the Canadian banks is to not forget where this came from in the first place, let’s get back to seeding and supporting businesses at the stage they need it most,” he says. Croxon also used the occasion to make an impassioned defense of the CBC, say-ing that the public broadcaster is neces-sary to keep politicians in check and for people to have an impartial voice. He says Canada would suffer a major blow if broadcasting was exclusively private, as it is south of the border. Bruce Croxon

Les Arnelien, Area Manager for TD Canada Trust has announced a $12,000 donation to The Health Foundation’s Education and Scholarship Program. This brings TD Bank Financial Group’s total contributions for this scholarship program to $116,000, and brings the total of their contributions to The Health Foundation to $124,000. “The Health Foundation’s Education and Scholarship Program was launched in 2002 with a generous contri-bution and a long-term commitment from TD Bank Financial Group, and we are very pleased that this part-nership continues to this day,” says Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation. “Eleven years ago when The Health Foundation

wanted to start an education and scholarship program for employees of the health region they approached TD Bank Financial Group for funding. Since then, for eleven consecutive years TD Bank Financial Group has pro-vided scholarships for educational courses that contrib-ute to the professional development of nurses or other practicing caregivers in our health region,” adds Arnelien. “The TD Bank believes in education and in giving back to the communities where we do business. This program allows us to do both of those things and to make a difference in the quality of care available to the people of this area.” The Health Foundation’s Scholarship Fund awards approximately $24,000 a year to help further the train-ing and education of health care staff in east central Saskatchewan. The TD Bank Financial Group contrib-utes $12,000 annually to fund 50 per cent of the awards. Since the program started in 2002, there have been 248 awards totaling $231,100. In addition, the TD Bank Financial Group and The Health Foundation have spon-sored four workshops in the past four years for nurses and therapists. Rather than sending nurses and thera-pists out to workshops, we are bringing the workshops here, allowing more people to take specialized training than would otherwise be possible. “The Health Foundation is very grateful to TD Bank Financial Group for the generous and consistent support to the Education and Scholarship Program,” concludes Fisher. It is fair to say that without the support of TD Bank our education program would not exist. It is excep-tional that TD has provided this level of support for eleven consecutive years. “We are really pleased to have learned that an added benefit of this program is that in some cases it has made it a little easier to recruit healthcare staff to work here. Most health regions do not have an education program like this one. This education program is a supplement to what the province and health regions ordinarily do.”

We see the donations pouring in, but we don’t always get the opportu-nity to see first hand how the dollars are mak-ing a real difference in the community. Last week Carolee Zorn, Yorkton’s Out of Scope Maternity Manager at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre (YRHC) invited local media into the hospital to see in person how dol-lars being spent by The Health Foundation are going a long way in improving health care services. While money is spent in a variety of needed areas, Zorn says she can say without question donations have vastly helped to better the maternity ward at the YRHC. With a definite short-age of nurses, a growing population and nearly double the number of births happening at the local health centre, up-to-date equipment is crucial for efficiency. The

Health Foundation, she says, is helping to ensure staff at the hospital have what they need to do their jobs. Among the recent pur-chases made with dona-tion dollars are two fetal monitors that came with them a price tag of $21,000. It’s needed equipment that Zorn says would be difficult – at best – to do without. “We were to the point where we were feeling the pressure because the fetal monitors we did have were on their last legs. Sometimes they worked, sometimes they didn’t...” she says. The new monitors are up-to-date and have full warranty. “The fetal monitors are an integral part of the work that we do... they help us to see the health of the fetus while it’s still inside the moth-er by analyzing the baby’s heart beat,” says Zorn. “We use them every-day and almost on every

patient that we see. Without them we can still monitor but we have to do it differently and it doesn’t give us that hard, paper graph of what we need to see to determine the baby’s health. We really depend on them in our everyday work.” They are also a bit of a recruitment tool. Doctors and nurses prefer to go where there is a favor-able work environment. And in spite of ongoing recruitment and reten-tion efforts Zorn says, “We’re strapped for nurs-es right now... we have nearly double the num-ber of births happening annually and the same number of nurses.” Bringing in new, mod-ern equipment is anoth-er way of helping to boost recruitment and reten-tion. In 14 years The Health Foundation raised just over $13 million and over 83 per cent, or over $10,700,000, was invest-ed back into medical equipment or facilities.

The medical equip-ment purchased has clear benefits for every-one in Sunrise health Region says Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation: • “With community support we have improved our doctors’ ability to diagnose medi-cal conditions; • Lives have been saved because of earlier detection and treat-ment; • There are over 10,000 examinations or proce-dures done on equipment purchased by The Health Foundation; our resi-dents used to have to travel to Regina or Saskatoon for those ser-vices; • That has improved access to medical care and many services are now faster and more effi-cient. By supporting the work of The Health Foundation our donors have been part of mak-ing our region a better place to live.”

Festival/Access partner

For the second year it’s back and it’s an opportunity for young, aspiring film-makers to make their debut. The Yorkton Film Festival (YFF), in cooperation with Access Communications, has announced the 2013 Access Communications High School Film Competition. This competition is open to high school students of all ages across the province and entry is free of charge. The winners of each category will have their films screened across the province on Access Communication network. The theme for the 2013 competition is: Physical Activity – Get Out, Speak Out, Act Out. The YFF is also partnering with Saskatchewan in motion, a province-wide movement that works to get kids moving more. Statistics say less than 15 per cent of Saskatchewan kids get the physical activity they need every day. Increasing the physical activity of the kids we care about is a shared responsi-bility between families, schools and com-munities to ensure they each do their part to make sure kids get the minimum of 60 minutes of physical activity every day. For the first time in history, children and youth are expected to have a shorter and less healthy life than their parents. Cathie Kryzanowski, General Manager of Saskatchewan in motion says the partnership is a creative way to allow youth to showcase their creative talents and share their messages on the physi-cal activity issue with a broad audience. “This is a great opportunity for kids to use the power of video to draw attention to the issue and get the ears of commu-nity leaders and decision makers.”

Entry rules are as follows: • Entries must relate to the theme of the competition and fall into a category, listed below, to be to be accepted. Films must be no longer than 6 minutes. • Release forms for all persons appear-ing in films must be submitted with entry form. Entries that do not include release forms will be disqualified from competition. All music and stock-footage used must be properly licensed. • Films must be submitted to the Yorkton Film Festival on DVD with completed entry and release forms by March 30, 2013. The mailing address is:

OTTENBREIT HONORED – Yorkton’s MLA Greg Ottenbreit was recently honored with the Hal Rogers Fellow, the highest award that Kin Canada bestows. The award is presented to individual Kin, Associate Members, alumni and non-Kin who, by their leadership, accomplishments and community endeavours, have demonstrated the high ideals to which Kin Canada Founder Hal Rogers was committed. The award has been given to people such as Bob McGrath, Wayne Gretzky and Celine Dion. Ottenbreit’s work with the Kinsmen and the charities established to honor his late son’s legacy, Brayden Ottenbreit’s Close Cuts for Cancer and the Brayden Ottenbreit Memorial Book Fund were cited as the reasons to receive the honor. Ottenbreit says he was surprised and humbled to receive the award. He also says the award needs to be shared with his wife Leone, who is as important as he is in all of their charity events. He also says he wouldn’t have been able to achieve what he has without the support of the community.

‘Tis the season – TO BE CAUTIOUS! It’s harvest time and while it’s a time to work, work, work, work when the weather is good, safety has to be remembered. Fall weather has been incredible this year, mean-ing farmers can go nearly around the clock in an effort to get needed work done, but success shouldn’t, and needn’t, come with a tragic price tag. While I haven’t heard of many incidents this year – thankfully – the harvest season does tend to bring to mind tragedies of years past. Last year two small boys, just five and seven, were killed after being sucked into the grain within a grain bin hopper they had been playing in. Like being pulled into the undertow of a strong current, their little lives were lost likely before they even realized they were in danger. And that’s the point, children are children. They don’t access danger the same way adults do, no matter how grown up or bright we may think them to be. A grain trailer is not a place for children to play and if there isn’t sufficient supervision, they have no busi-ness being there in the first place. We may be talking about family farming, but we’re also talking about business. Big business in some instances. There is dan-gerous machinery, many things happening at the same

time and hazards around every corner – not your ideal play zone for chil-dren. Most people know this inherently, but most think it can’t or won’t happen to them and what’s worse, many involve their children for the sake of saving hiring an extra hand. You’ve seen it I’m sure. Little Johnny is 10 now... he’s fine to drive

tractor, or to pick up dad from the field, after all it’s just a little way down the dirt road, or worse yet, the highway. Guess what? Little Johnny is a child who should be playing, or maybe doing chores around the house or barn if he’s needed to help out – he’s not a hired farm man who knows the ins and outs of the business no matter if he’s been raised in that atmosphere or not. In another separate incident a man was killed after being crushed by a hay bale he was attempting to move with a front end loader. Was he over tired? Was he ask-ing more of his equipment than it’s capable of? I guess the whole point here is to THINK. Use common sense. Harvest time is a busy time with plenty of work to be done. It can be stressful, it’s tough fitting everything in, worrying about the bills, the outcome, family time... but is cutting corners and/or being careless really worth it in the end?

The way I see it...

In Alaska, there is a town with a cat for a mayor. The feline ascended to power as a protest against the mayor at the time, and just sort of stayed there. The 15 year old named Stubbs has been a tourist attraction ever since, and his position is largely honorary. Right now in Halifax a cat named Tuxedo Stan is vying for the mayor’s seat, though it’s actually a campaign to pro-mote spaying and neutering and deal with a stray cat problem in the city. In Virginia, there is a cat running for a senate seat. It is time to remind everyone that a cat in general is a terrible choice for any public office, on any level. The problem is that cats are fickle, and easily bribed and influenced. They cannot consider issues with a calm and impartial mind. Whoever has the most treats, wins, and all the cats I know are easily influenced by a scratch on the chin. If you want to get a cat off your case, that’s just as easy, throw out a string and it’s going to be running after that and completely disre-garding any responsibilities it might have at the given moment. The Rt. Hon. Cat MP might have to put its paw down for a major vote, but then a string is thrown and it’s going to be chasing that for the next several hours. Of course, a cat can’t debate either, mostly because it can speak neither official language in this country. Oh

sure, it can meow at you, but that could mean any-thing, from an expression of hunger to a disagreement over budget priorities. The unknown meanings of a cat’s utterances make it very difficult for it to represent the issues important to the electorate. The mystery of what a cat is actually trying to say makes it difficult to engage in a serious conversation with the animal, which is not important when it’s just a creature that sleeps on the arm of your couch, but is important in an elected representative. Sleeping is another point where a cat is ill qualified. Every time an MP, MLA, or municipal politician is caught sleeping on the job it’s a major controversy.

What happens when it’s a cat, something that spends the majority of its day sleeping? It’s not a matter of if the cat is sleeping on the job, but when, and how much. It could be asleep for the entirety of its term, not accomplishing much at all and generally being a drain on taxpayers. There’s also the matter of public appearances, some-thing any politician has to do a large number of times every week. That’s fine for a human, even a relatively grumpy human, but a cat is going to be terrible at this part of politics. Some might disagree, even going so far to suggest a cat would be great – see the aforemen-tioned cat mayor in Alaska – but it is clear that a cat is going to be poor at this, due to the above points. It can-not actually do public speaking, it is going to fall asleep in conversations, it will get easily distracted by all of the stimuli in the area, and eventually your elected representative will hide under a table and lick itself. Not the behavior one expects in their politicians. So plainly, cats shouldn’t be elected to any position, it’s just not something that is within their skill set. It’s not to say cats aren’t good for anything, they can keep pests at bay and can liven up the house with their antics. But when it comes to elected officials, we don’t have any options other than the traditional human selections.

We wouldn’t be where we are today were it not for our women. Saskatchewan residents are joining with all Canadians in cel-ebrating Women’s History Month throughout October, and the first International Day of the Girl on October 11. Women’s History Month is cel-ebrated each year, and provides an opportunity to recognize and appreciate how women have shaped our history, and to acknowledge the vital contribu-tions women make to strengthen our economy, our communities and our families. Saskatchewan’s theme for the month is “Women and Girls Shaping Saskatchewan’s Future”, recognizing the passion and energy that young women and girls bring to their leadership roles as innovators and change-makers in their communities. “I encourage all Saskatchewan residents to reflect on the impor-tant contributions of women and girls to the growth and prosper-ity of our province,” Minister responsible for the Status of Women June Draude says. “Each year, more and more Saskatchewan women assume leadership roles in boardrooms across our province, and our country. Our young women and girls are also helping to chart a course for the future through their leadership roles on student councils, community youth com-mittees and sports teams, and through their entrepreneurship and community volunteerism.” A big thank you to all the won-derful women out there!

To the Editor:

Canadians are used to thinking of energy in a big way. Reshaping Northern Québec with dams for massive hydro-elec-tric projects; digging up Northern Alberta with the oil sands; massive fracking operations in southwest-ern Saskatchewan; offshore oil wells in the stormy North Atlantic, even hectares upon hectares fi lled with solar panels or wind turbines, farming the breezes and sun. We are blessed with a bounty few other nations have. Yet, in the pro-cess, we often overlook the smaller scale opportunities that could help sustain our towns and cities. Take the town dump, for exam-ple. Dumps naturally give off meth-ane as the trash slowly decompos-es. Methane, in turn, is 70 times more potent than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas. But methane has another name: natural gas. If a town capped its dump, captured the methane, and used it to do work they’d otherwise have to buy gas (or some other fuel) for, they’d save some money and convert the methane into carbon dioxide through its use, reducing its effect on the environment. By using that gas to run a dis-trict heating system for example, they’d lower the cost for people to live there, or businesses to locate there – an economic incentive that didn’t require a tax giveaway. In other words, smaller scale doesn’t interest big corporations half as much as it can interest you, me, and the places we live. There’s all sorts of free energy waiting out there. Another exam-ple: we can get energy from the lo-

cal water tower when gravity sends it back down as it’s used simply by putting a turbine in the pipe. It’s a “run of river” hydro facility but in-stalled inside our civic infrastruc-ture, instead. Why does this matter? After all, we get electricity from the grid, gas comes in pipelines, and we’ve got lots of it. We’re used to thinking in terms of money as the differentiator be-tween our community and the oth-er ones around it. That’s how dif-ferent jurisdictions get into battles to see who can offer a major new factory the biggest tax break and the cheapest land and services to attract them (and their employ-ment). Suppose we started thinking about offering things in kind, in-stead. “Come here, we have really cheap gas for your factory. Come here, we have really cheap electric-ity.” We could think even more au-daciously if we wanted. A city like Mississauga in Ontario wants to build out an LRT system to serve its citizens. Needless to say, a lot of other Ontario municipalities also want improved transit systems. Finding the money can be a strug-gle. Getting it built now? Almost impossible. In Dresden, Germany, a central city location was used to build a new Volkswagen auto assembly plant: the “Transparent Factory”. Why in the centre of a historic city and not on the outskirts? Dresden’s convention centre wasn’t doing that well, anyway, and that meant the land could be sold. In turn, its LRT system could be used to bring in the parts, keeping trucks off the roads.

Yes, the same rails that run pub-lic transit also bring in auto parts, on specially-designed small ve-hicles that fi t well on city streets. The increased economy has allowed Dresden to expand service to its citizens without increased taxes. Mississauga, in other words, could think the same way, serving its industrial economy and provid-ing for its citizens’ needs at the same time. “Join us in the capital investment, and save on your oper-ating costs for years to come.” Canada does have cities with strong forward planning. What is generally still missing is the no-tion of looking at everything our towns or cities do and ways to le-verage it. Vancouver, for instance, is using its Green City approach to work with transit corridors – but it’s not looking at how to use those corridors to create jobs, or how to heat or power refurbished zones to make them attractive. The integra-tion across many different sources and disciplines still isn’t there. But it can be, and that’s the point. New Urbanist-trained architects are used to running what they call a charette to bring a community together to help specify what they want and to make sure a multi-block change works for everyone. This same process could be used to identify opportunities and over-come specialization, so that ideas to power our local economies for-ward can be put on the table. There’s opportunity and free sources of energy all around us. Time to put them to work, and grow our economy, one town after another.

To the Editor:

Peter Lougheed was given a full state fu-neral, the fi rst ever for a former Alberta pre-mier. The big capitalist media universally praised him. Prime Minister Stephen Harp-er called Lougheed a visionary and patriot. “Every single one of us woke up this morn-ing in Peter Lougheed’s Alberta,” said Ali-son Redford, Alberta’s current premier. These are true words, yet they fail to reas-sure those of us opposed to the course set by Lougheed. Before he resigned as premier in 1985, the 1980 recession devastated Alberta’s pe-troleum manufacturing industry, one of the world’s largest. Today Alberta is more reli-ant on resources than ever, especially petro-leum, and tar sands development is spurring catastrophic global climate change. Behind the hoopla, the funeral was a la-ment that big business can provide no great vision or solutions to get us out of the trou-ble Lougheed has created for Canada. Those of us in the left and popular move-ments in Alberta who grew up when Lougheed was premier have a different memory of his legacy. He was not a liberal or Red Tory, as the many protests we orga-nized attest. His party’s 1971 victory over Social Credit, which had been in power since 1935, repre-sented the end of any aspiration of the petit bourgeois for infl uence in the Alberta state. His victory meant the total take over of the province by big corporate interests, and Lougheed was their face. Lougheed’s true legacy is serving the large oil and gas corporations, mainly foreign owned. For them, he won more provincial control over resources at the expense of the rest of Canada, laying the groundwork for the Balkanization of Canada. His approach, such as an elected Senate, rejected the equal-ity of nations in Canada by strengthening provincial rights. This helped regional capi-talist interests ready to sell out to U.S. and other foreign corporations. Accelerating a process started by Social-Credit, Lougheed’s government enriched the giant transnational corporations by handing over the province’s rich natural resources. Lougheed placed these resources even far-ther from the reach of Aboriginal peoples or the people of Canada. He was patriotic only to money. Lougheed’s provincial rights agenda is a danger to the future of Canada itself. It gave the Reform Party and its present embodi-ment in Ottawa, Stephen Harper, a great weapon to dismantle Canada. The Reform Party’s solution to Quebec’s demands for increased sovereign powers was to give each province the same powers. In 1997, the growing infl uence of the Reform party led every non-Quebec premier to sign the Calgary Declaration, which proclaimed that all provinces must have legal equality. Although Lougheed supported the failed 1992 Charlottetown Accord as a way to “bring Quebec back into Canada” and to achieve a province based elected Senate, he led Harper and our big business overlords to their present reactionary position. They will now reject any concessions to Quebec unless these further entrench the reactionary, anti Aboriginal and anti Quebec federal system imposed by the British in 1867. It is a vision of federalism that denies the equality of nations and their right to self de-termination. It is a vision that continues the inequality of Aboriginal nations and Que-bec. It is a vision that divides workers. Harper gave Lougheed a state funeral for his dedicated service to the oil corporations, not to the people.

To the Editor:

Most people don’t give a lot of thought to what it takes for them to get to their destination every day. Restrict their ability to travel freely and it’s a different story. Reliable transportation and infrastructure is important for education, health care and social interaction. It is a part of our everyday lives. There’s an old saying: “It takes a village to raise a child.” The same concept applies to the growth of our population and its impact on our municipalities and their infra-structure. Provincial and federal programs must support the devel-opment of core and essential infra-structure such as roads, water and sewage facilities, land drainage fa-cilities, solid waste facilities, tran-sit, parks and buildings.

Constrained by other levels of gov-ernment, municipalities face diffi -cult decisions on how to spend their limited funds, and are hesitant to raise property taxes for infrastruc-ture. Decades of reduced invest-ment has created a backlog of main-tenance and repair work required to get our roads back to their intended design life. Now more than ever, we need national and provincial programs paired with public policy commitment to designate funds to infrastructure investment. Growing communities need to fo-cus on the construction of new as-sets such as roads, water/sewage systems, schools, and hospitals. They also need to repair and replace their existing infrastructure, often to keep up with the demands of a growing population. Taking a dis-ciplined approach to determining

infrastructure priorities provides governments and industry with the direction they need. We also need a long-term vision for infrastructure. Cyclical capital programs can cost taxpayers more. Tendering projects during periods of lower demand (over the winter months) would likely yield better infrastructure pricing and allow the industry to begin work as soon as the ground conditions permit. It’s time for government to look at the infrastructure defi cit as an opportunity and not as a problem we may never solve. We can’t keep funding our infrastructure through traditional means; it’s simply no longer working. It is time govern-ment did things differently!

To the Editor:

At federal budget time last spring, I raised con-cerns about Stephen Harper slashing the Gov-ernment of Canada at the expense of public safety. Keeping Canadians healthy and safe is every government’s fi rst obliga-tion. So it’s odd to see so many Conservative cuts eroding border services, prison security, our spy agency, maritime search-and-rescue, consumer prod-uct labeling, emergency planning, environmental protection, crime preven-tion and, of course, food safety. About the latter – Ca-nadians want to be abso-lutely confi dent about the quality and integrity of our

food supply. Like Medi-care, hockey, the Rockies and the Roughriders, our superlative food system is a defi ning characteris-tic of this country, but we can’t take it for granted. In the biggest E.coli-tainted meat recall in Canadian history, the behaviour of the slaugh-terhouse at the root of it all (XL Foods at Brooks, AB) has been an appall-ing combination of in-competence, indifference and arrogance. And the federal government is no better. The contamination orig-inated on August 24th. But it was only detected 12 days later (Sept. 4th), when US authorities re-ported unacceptable E.coli levels in beef exported to them. Agriculture Minis-

ter Ritz was informed the very next day, but trouble persisted. On September 13th, Canada’s Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) ordered XL to stop exporting to the Americans. But it took another three days (Sept. 16th) before any public warnings were is-sued to Canadians, and another 11 days (Sept. 27th) before the plant was shut-down. Product recalls have skyrocketed, and four di-rectly connected illnesses have been confi rmed. The company recently issued an anonymous record-ing to admit its errors. CFIA is now saying it “won’t pretend” mistakes weren’t made. But the Harper Cabinet continues in absolute denial.

They claim they’ve hired more meats inspectors, but they can’t say exactly who they are, what jobs they perform or where they’re located. They claim CFIA has all the money it needs, but they won’t explain a $56-mil-lion cut in last spring’s budget. They claim their system has functioned well, but why then are consumers, cattle pro-ducers, processors and exporters suffering crip-pling losses and other damages. What does this fi asco have in common with the deadly listeriosis crisis in Canadian meat products in 2008? In both cases, Gerry Ritz was in charge.

Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This is the 16th of a series on get-ting settled in Hazel Dell. The broilers had grown to resemble sumo wrestlers, and today they will end up in various freezers. Nice plump birds, fed totally organic feed and grown to about six pounds each without any steroids or other growth hormones! The chicken pluckers Donna and Leona were here and hard at work! There were feathers flying in every direc-tion! The dogs ran for cover. The first couple of chickens were easy to catch, but when my wife showed up for the next batch with blood splatters in her face and on her clothes, the remaining chickens took one look at her and went into hiding! The ducks realized that they were safe, at least for now and just hud-dled in the far corner. My wife had placed an old truck canopy in the broiler yard for shelter,

and most of the broilers had run in there think-ing they were safe. They were huddled against the back wall, and almost out of my wife’s reach. She had her chicken catcher in her hand, and old fish catcher net, and she set out to snag some broil-ers. The broiler yard is right next to the layer yard, and the layers including the rooster Prince Eric were watch-ing the proceedings carefully. My wife had to crawl under the can-opy to catch the broil-ers, and when she emerged with two of them, she was dirty as a coal miner from the mud. When the layers and Prince Eric could only see the white in her eyes, Prince Eric let out very loud “cock-a-doo-dle-do” and they all dis-appeared into the hen house! The women got into a good routine right away. It went like this: Catch the bird, off with its head, bleed out, dunk in hot water, pluck the feathers, remove the guts and place in a tank with fresh cool water. The

dogs and I just watched in amazement! At the start of the chicken butchering pro-cedure, the women were all very careful and only grabbed one chicken at the time. However, as the day wore on, they braved up and started han-dling two at the time. In fact Leona was walking to the butcher block with a live chick-en in each hand hold-ing them by their feet. The chickens might have sensed what was about to happen to them, as they raised their heads up by cran-ing their necks, and started flapping their wings. However, it backfired on the chick-ens because their flap-ping effort slightly levi-tated Leona sending her flying like Mary Poppins, only with two chickens in her hands instead of an umbrella, towards my wife wait-ing at the butcher block. Donna had the occa-sion to carry the last chicken; she was a little complacent as the car-rying of a chicken by its feet was now old hat to her. This chicken did

not want anything to do with the procedure and started flapping the wings really hard while at the same time turning. Donna as a result got pulled a bit off balance and the chicken ended up beat-ing on her leg with the flapping wings. In the spirit of the Olympics I awarded the first round of this bout to the chick-en. However, the sec-ond round was the deci-sive round, as Donna got in a fowl mood and the chicken lost its head!

When the birds were totally cooled off in the fresh water, they got dried off and trans-ferred to a large plastic bag each and put in the freezer. The women were so good at it, per-haps they should hire out? A man walked into a restaurant and asked the hostess while being seated: “Do you serve chicken here?” To which the hostess replied with a smile: “Please sit down Sir, we serve anyone!” He scanned the menu and

ordered Chicken-Ala-King. He took one bite of the chicken, called the waiter over and said: “I won’t eat this chicken! Call the man-ager!” To which the waiter replied: “I’msorry Sir! But he won’t eat it either!” Did you know that the reason chickens lay eggs are because the eggs would break if they dropped them! When Colonel Sanders (KFC) was asked why the chicken crossed the road, he replied: “I missed one?!”

We live in a country rich in resources, beau-ty, and we boast food quality and quantity second to none. Since being first elect-ed in 2006, the Conservative govern-ment has stood shoul-der to shoulder with the farmers of Canada. We helped livestock produc-ers weather the BSE crisis and hay shortag-es, and we’ve assisted crop farmers with droughts and floods. We’ve established and enhanced programs and agreements with our provincial partners to provide aid in the face of disaster, and we’ve adapted to ever-chang-ing situations. When Growing Forward 2, the new agriculture policy framework, was signed by federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz and the provincial agricul-ture ministers in September, it brought with it a change to the way government agri-culture programs work. Instead of a “one size fits all” mentality, the new framework will allow different regions and provinces the flexi-bility to adapt programs to best suit their farm-ers. Our governments will continue to be there for farmers in cases of sig-nificant drops in income and disaster situations.

At the same time, we’re refocusing investments on innovation in order to fuel long-term growth across the sector and economic prosperity for all Canadians. Growing Forward 2 includes an investment of over $3 billion, repre-senting a 50 per cent increase in cost-shared investments in innova-tion, competitiveness and market develop-ment. Growing Forward 2 takes effect on April 1, 2013, and will be our agriculture framework for the next five years. During that time, the federal and provincial governments will moni-tor the Business Risk Management (BRM) programs. Modifications made to AgriStability and AgriInvest in Growing Forward 2 will ensure that Canadian producers continue to have access to a strong and effective suite of BRM programs. AgriInsurance (crop insurance), AgriRecov-ery, and the Advanced

Payment Program will continue to help farm-ers manage production risks and provide cash flow assistance. Governments will boost coverage for those with negative margins as well as substantially increase farmers’ abili-ty to contribute greater funds into their AgriInvest account. Our government remains committed to keeping the Canadian economy on the right track, and that includes an agriculture industry that sees growth, cre-ates jobs and has long-term prosperity.

Op-Ed Column ARMY RESERVE RECOGNITION DAY – Bombardier Matthew Fairbank (l) and his employer Greg Moskal, president of Moskal Mechanical, were honored as part of Army Reserve Recognition Day. The day honors the contributions of Army Reservists throughout Canada and their contributions to the Canadian military. Fairbank says that it’s important for him to serve his country, and that he is thankful to his employer’s patience as he has to take time off as part of his work with the Reserves. Moskal says it can be trying at times, especially when he loses a valuable employee for weeks at a time, but that it’s a pleasure to let him do what he does.

We have all heard of the term “comfort food”... we in fact have all craved it, smelled the aromas from it in anticipation, and of course eaten it. What is “comfort food” though, exactly? Is it only big bowls of stew-ish type foods on a cold winter day that one eats while wear-ing pants with a stretchy waistband? Does it exist in climates where it is warm year round? Comfort food can be, and is, whatever you want it to be by what it means to you. That’s the beauty of it; if by eating it, it gives you a level of comfort, be it physical or emotional, then it can be considered comfort food. The physical content-ment from eating comfort foods would be the warmth felt by the tem-perature of the dish, or the spiciness of it, and/or even the mouth feel of the richness about it. However pairing these physical sensations with the psy-chological satisfaction from eating something considered to be a comfort food, is where I think the true definition lies within people and where the pleasure really comes from. Comfort food can be a dish that stirs up senti-mental feelings for exam-ple. Maybe a certain aroma and corresponding flavour is linked to a memory of a place once visited, a special time or celebration in one’s life, or of a beloved person. For example, when I smell turkey and stuffing cooking my mind always takes me back in times to

when I was a boy and would come in the house from playing outside on a crisp autumn Thanks-giving day. The warm aromas of sage and tur-key blanketing every nook and cranny of our old house revealed to me my Mom’s selfless efforts made by her that morn-ing. Smell is a huge part of the enjoyment of eating and tasting and it has been scientifically proven that our sense of smell is directly linked to memo-ry. This is also the reason we are turned off by some foods or dishes, because the aromas and related tastes are linked to times of unhappiness or ill feel-ings. Recipes of a nostalgic nature may also contrib-ute to be classified as comfort foods. Foods from a certain time period or specific culture that trig-ger emotions may be enough to sanction it into this classification. For instance, on the 17th of March when our table is filled with classic Irish dishes, it not only feels more fitting, but also ful-filling... or comforting. This is just one example of many celebrations that could include, but not limited to, Asian delights on Chinese New Year,

incredible Indian food on Dwali, or haggis on Robbie Burns Day... yes, there are people that consider even haggis to be comfort food. For those of you not in the Scottish culinary loop, haggis can be defined as a savoury pudding con-taining a sheep’s organs (heart, liver, and lungs for example) and com-bined with onion, oat-meal, and spices tradi-tionally encased in the sheep’s stomach and sim-mered for hours. I am actually quite fond of it myself on occasion as long as it is served warm; once it gets cold I find the tex-ture loses its appeal. The feel good sensation of comfort food can also be obtained by simply just loving the taste of some-thing, maybe by that of your favorite type of food or favorite recipe; which literally could translate into almost anything for any one individual. Basically foods that make you feel good because you are consuming something you love to eat. The act of doing so would bring on positive emotions and help to suppress negative feelings, and that alone could be enough to be con-sidered comfort food.

Con’t from Page 8.

Now if this was a column on dietary pros and cons and examining how food addictions can alter lifestyles in a nega-tive way, we would then discuss modera-tion, balanced diets, and portion control. However, for the sake of the love of the culinary arts we will end it here on a positive note instead. So, in conclusion, comfort food can be, and is, anything you want it to be, as long as it makes you happy for one rea-son or another... even if it is just tempo-rary.

Dear Chef Dez:

I have heard that “braising” is the best way to make tough meats tender. Do you agree and what is braising?

Alfred S.

Winnipeg, MBDear Alfred,

Marinating is a good way too, but I guess if I had to choose I would pick braising. Braising is a combination of dry and moist heat cooking processes. First the meat is seared at a high tem-perature to create a flavourful crust on the meat and then cooked through in a moist heat environment at a low tem-perature for a long period of time. The low moist heat is what breaks down and transforms tough connective tissue into mouth-watering tender meals. Seared in a hot pan and then cooked in a covered casserole dish with liquid in a 250 to 300 degree Fahrenheit oven for a few hours would be considered braising. Please keep in mind that this is an example only and would depend on the type and size of meat you are cooking.

Celebrating Saskatchewan at the Godfrey DeanBy DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The Godfrey Dean Art Gallery is celebrating its tenth anniversary, and for the next few months it’s looking back. Treasures from the Vault showcases a wide spec-trum of art from Saskatchewan’s history, bringing selections from the Saskatchewan Art Board’s permanent col-lection to show a variety of work from the past 65 years. Peter Sametz, Associate Director of the Saskatchewan Arts Board, says that this is just a small selection of the work in the board’s permanent collection of 3,000 art objects which represent all of the differ-ent media from tradition-al forms such as paint and sculpture to work that’s in new media. “This is our mission statement, to cultivate an environment where the arts thrive. Why? For

the benefit of everyone in Saskatchewan,” Sametz says. The selection at the Godfrey Dean is a small selection of the larger col-lection, but Sametz says that it gives a taste of what the Arts Board tries to do, and the way art in the province has changed over the decades. “As you survey the col-lection, from the early days to the modern day, you see that evolution of art making processes in the province by the prov-ince’s artists. We have over 600 whose work is included in the collection, and the artists whose work is included today, as you might expect, is not the same kind of work that they were making 60 years ago, and you get a taste of that in this exhi-bition,” Sametz says. The show was curated by Don Stein, executive director of the Godfrey Dean, and Sametz credits him with starting the ball rolling to get the one-off

show together for the gal-lery. He admits that it is rare to have a one-off show like this one, but that they’re proud to work together with the gallery to have a show that celebrates its suc-cess. “Yorkton is a burgeon-ing, growing community here in the eastern part of the province. We enjoyed very much work-ing with the city on the creation, commission and installation of Lionel Peyachew’s work in Shaw Park, that was our proj-ect, and it’s been a few years since we had a major project here in the city. We’re very pleased this project came up, and we’re looking forward to the next one,” Sametz says. Given the work on dis-play, Sametz says that he hopes everyone makes a stop at the Godfrey Dean while Treasures of the Vault is on display. The show itself runs until December 14, 2012.

Oct. 7-13 is Fire Prevention Week: have two ways out The Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) along with fire departments and primary and pre-school teachers across the country, have introduced a new tool to help kids and families be better prepared in case of fire: cute and fuzzy bunny rab-bits. “Have Two Ways Out” is this year’s theme for Fire Prevention Week, which runs October 7 – 13. The theme builds on rabbits’ instinct to always have at least two exits from their underground homes leading to safety. Fire Chief Stephen Gamble, presi-dent of the CAFC, says families who create and practise an escape plan together, with two ways out of every room if possible, have a better chance of escaping during a real fire emergency. “An escape plan helps families respond more quickly and calmly when faced with a real fire situation,” Chief Gamble says. “When a smoke alarm sounds, everyone needs to know what to do and where to go. Planning two ways out of each room, ahead of time, greatly increases your chances of getting out without injury.” Among the “Have Two Ways Out” activities will be a week of home fire escape les-sons taught to young children by primary and pre-school teachers, followed by home-work assignments encouraging families to prepare and practise an escape plan. The effort extends through the entire month of October featuring a special web site www.safeathome.ca/twowaysout where families can print out a free home escape plan template. They can also watch for it in the “Have Two Ways Out” homework package which the CAFC designed to help parents, teachers and kids work hand in hand. Families who register the completion of their plan on line are rewarded with a “Have Two Ways Out” Certificate and the chance to win over $10,000 in prizes including Kidde Escape Ladders, Smoke and Carbon Monoxide alarms. Teachers can also register their classrooms for a chance to win Domino’s Pizza Parties, glow in dark Kidde Sparky Smoke Alarms, and Sparky the Fire Dog plush toys that speak

fire safety messages. Carol Heller is a home fire safety specialist with Kidde Canada, recognized as the largest smoke and carbon monoxide alarm company in Canada—and a major partner in the CAFC’s annual Fire Prevention Week campaign. Heller says two more factors are important for families to consider to avoid fire tragedy. “If a false alarm has caused you to take the batteries out of your smoke alarm, or remove it from the ceiling, it won’t be there when you need it most. “So when your kids come home from school excited to create an escape plan, also make sure smoke alarms are installed and working on every storey of your home,” Heller adds, “Remember that smoke alarms wear out. Replace them every 10 years whether they are battery operated or hardwired into your home’s electrical system.” Fire Departments play a major part in the safety campaign’s success, building on their established school programs of working hand-in-hand with youngsters and educators. A free home escape plan template and more family fire safety tips can be found online at the campaign website www.safeathome.ca/twowaysout.

KALE THOMSON earned his first shutout of the season as the Terriers earned a 3-0 victory over the Nipawin Hawks Saturdaynight. The Terriers sit in second place heading into weekend clashes with the Melville Millionaires, who sit in first place.

Terriers on streak heading into H-10 rivalryBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

The Yorkton Terriers can do no wrong in the fi rst stretch of the 2012-13 SJHL season. With three straight wins after their lone loss on the road to their Notre Dame Hounds the Terriers now sit at an impressive 5-1 to open their SJHL campaign. The Terriers began their weekend winning streak on the road Friday night in Wey-burn as the Terriers handled the Red Wings in a 7-2 victory repeating the story from the Terriers fi rst win of the sea-son when they won against the Red Wings in their home opener. Conor Barrie got the start in net for the Terriers and had 33 saves while Kale Thomson got some much de-served rest before the Terri-ers played at home Saturday night. Dylan Johnson also got his fi rst action of the season and scored his fi rst SJHL goal on his fi rst ever shift while his older brother Jere-

my continued his hot start to the season with a hat trick. The Terriers then headed back home for a Saturday night clash with the Ni-pawin Hawks. Saturday night proved to be alright for fi ghting as the Terriers and Hawks did not shy away from the physical play as the Ter-riers answered the Hawks insistence of running their hot goalie Thomson in net, resulting in the refs handing out numerous roughing after the whistle calls in the fi rst two periods in an attempt to control the situation. The Hawks attempts to out tough the Terriers game after a Jeremy Johnson goal three minutes into the game off of a rebound in front of the net that had the Hawks play-ing catch up from the get go. Dylan Baer added another marker late in the fi rst pe-riod off of another hustle play in front of the net to give the Terriers a 2-0 lead heading into the second period where Tayler Thompson scored one

of the goals of the season go-ing through the Hawks de-fense and the goalie himself in a highlight reel worthy effort to put the game out of reach at 3-0. Third period action saw the refs lose control of the game as roughing after the whistle penalties and game misconducts could not pre-vent the Terriers and Hawks from getting at each other and dropping the gloves as four fi ghting majors were as-sessed in the game. Despite the extra activity in the third period it was an impressive performance for the Terri-ers as they continued their unbeaten streak at the FAA and Kale Thomson earned a twenty-four save shutout. Win number three of the week came in Estevan Tues-day night as the Terriers cruised to another big win with a 6-1 scoreline. Six dif-ferent Terriers notched goals in the effort and Conor Barrie got another start in a twenty fi ve save performance, show-

ing signs that the Terriers might have an effective one-two punch in Thomson and Barrie going forward. The win put the Terriers two points back of the Million-aires in the Sherwood Confer-ence standings heading into a home and away weekend se-ries between the Highway 10 rivals Friday and Saturday night in their fi rst matchups of the season. Melville has played eight games to the Terriers six and it looks like both teams will be battling for fi rst place in the Sherwood Conference throughout the season after one month, mak-ing these Highway 10 battles that much more intense. Game time for the Terriers home game against the Mil-lionaires this weekend is at its usual seven thirty start Friday night as the Terriers host the Millionaires in what will be a battle for fi rst place and a chance for revenge from the 2012 playoffs in what is sure to be the story of the week in the SJHL.

Raiders lock up second place heading into playoffsBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

After their heartbreaking loss at Friday Night Lights to Moose Jaw Central, the YRHS Raiders football team bounced back with two straight 40 point performances on offense in wins over Swift Current and Estevan to improve their record to 5-1 and lock up second place in the Moose Jaw football league in their fi rst season. With their loss to Central the Raiders needed two wins to lock up guaranteed home fi eld advantage in the quarter and semi-fi nal playoff games and to do so needed to win on the road in Swift Current

Thursday night and on Tuesday afternoon at Century Field at home. In Swift Cur-rent the Raiders had to fi ght lag from the long bus ride from Yorkton according to coach Sharpe, but they ended up leading the entire way after allowing a fi eld goal on the opening possession according to Sharpe. Sharpe praised backup tailback and usual receiving option David Balysky, who ran for 200 plus yards in the game saying, “Swift Current gave us the outside all game, and David Balysky did a great job in carrying the ball for us in the second half.” Balysky’s 200 yard effort came after standout starting running back Zack Kais injured his ankle, forcing the Raiders to

adjust and employ out of position playersin the backfi eld. Kais absence extended to Tuesday’shome game against Estevan, a winlessteam who were pretty much a lock to facethe Raiders in the 2/7 matchup in the fi rstround of playoff action on Saturday. TheRaiders gave fi rst year player and nor-mal linebacker Tyson Haas his fi rst everstart at tailback in Kais’ absence and hedid not disappoint offensive coordinatorJason Boyda as Haas busted out for a longtouchdown in the fi rst half that set thetone for the rest of the game.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

The 2012 Regina Mi-nor Football season was really a two part story for the YRHS Jr. Raid-ers. The fi rst part was one of defeat and learn-ing experience as four straight losses, the last two coming down to the games fi nal drives, place the Raiders at 0-4 and in serious peril of miss-ing the playoffs. Part two however was one of growth and confi dence as the team rallied and has fi nished the season with four straight wins to bump their record the .500 at 4-4 putting them in the middle of the pack with a real chance to make some noise in the RMF playoffs. Saturday afternoon was the fi nal step in the Raiders regular sea-son turnaround as they needed a win over the Regina Dinos to improve their playoff standing and avoid playing the one or two seeds in the quarterfi nals. The Raid-ers answered the bell, dominating play from start to fi nish in a 41-24 victory that was capped off with an intercep-tion for a touchdown on

the games fi nal play to further help the Raid-ers tiebreakers for fi nal seeding. Final playoff stand-ings won’t be known un-til Thursday with two games left on the RMF schedule on Wednesday night, but head coach Mike Jarvis has the goal and expectation that the Raiders will fi nish in the middle of the playoff pack and win their quar-terfi nal matchup wher-ever they play. As is the norm in the RMF, no matter where the YRHS fi nishes they will have to travel on the road to play their playoff games in Regina due to the league rules that saw the YRHS senior team jump ship to the Moose Jaw league. Coach Jarvis was hap-py with his teams effort in the second half of the season and said, “The biggest change from the fi rst four games of the season was confi dence and gelling together as a team.” Going into the playoffs Jarvis expects that his teams power running mantra that they have been using on offense all season will pay dividends as temperatures drop and winds pick up, making

the running game even more of a focal point. With their 4-4 fi nish this Raiders squad is the best ever RMF team since joining the 12 man league and has high ex-pectations heading into the postseason and coach Jarvis expects at least a quarterfi nal win and feels that he has a team that can potentially take it all the way with a few bounces and a lot of hard work. Just one month ago the Raiders were looking for their fi rst win, now heading into the playoffs, they have championship dreams, not wins, on their mind.

Pee Wee Gridders loseBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

In their last regular season and home game of the year the Pee Wee Yorkton Gridders lost a hard fought game 22-15 to close out their RMF season heading into their bowl game this weekend. The Gridders battled hard throughout the game and fell just short of a game winning touchdown drive in the fourth quarter, allowing the clock to be ran out and ending their season with a home loss. Coach Noel Budz said in the loss his players still played with a lot of heart, and the loss wasn’t for a lack of will on his players end. The Pee Wee Grid-ders are a young team that is bound to improve with the addition of the successful Atom Gridders that are going to move up to a team that is going to be returning a lot of players. Going into the bowl game Budz has no other ex-pectations or goals for the team other than to keep showing the effort they have shown all season. With the season now coming to a close Budz would also like to thank the parents and the players for the dedication and support they have shown all year. The Gridders will be playing their bowl game in Regina at an undetermined date over the weekend and will be looking to repeat the Pee Wee Gridders success in the bowl game from last sea-son and end their 2012 season out on a winning note.

The MLB playoffs are well underway and lost in the crazi-ness that was the Wild Card games and the two to four games a day stretch that has been the National and American League Di-visional Series is the end of the road for one of the games classiest and underrated play-ers, Chipper Jones. Jones was the fi rst overall pick in the 1990 MLB draft and unlike many prospects who fl ame out after being picked in the top selec-tions of the draft, Jones delivered every bit of promise throughout his career after making the Braves team in 1993 after a short two sea-son stint in the minors. The resume speaks for itself; a career .303 batting average, one National League MVP, one batting title, 2,727 hits and 468 home runs. Jones is a lock for the hall of fame and will go down as a legend for an Atlanta Braves team that has been a bench-mark for consistency in the nearly twenty years Jones has played for the ballclub. However, Jones has one blemish on his list of accomplishments that holds him back from the upper echelon of great ballplayers, and that is the fact that he has only one World Series ring in his nine-

teen year run with the Braves. The Atlanta Braves themselves were a model of regu-lar season consistency and post season short-comings, winning fourteen straight di-vision titles and only one World Series. To put that into perspec-tive, the Braves were one of the eight best teams in baseball for fourteen consecutive years, but only once did they have that extra something that makes a team a champion. It isn’t fair, but if Chipper won two to three more championships with the Braves in that time frame, a lot of writ-ers would have been elevating him up the list of all-time greats upon his retirement at the end of the NL Wild Card Game. This type of value for rings is a tricky issue that has plagued hand-fuls of great athletes throughout the years. It is both fair and un-fair to value champion-ships when discussing who the best player is in sports. Surely we all know Peyton Man-ning has been a better quarterback than his little brother Eli, but Eli’s two Super Bowl rings to Peyton’s one has changed the opin-ion of many in Eli’s favor. Sometimes a player never has the supporting cast to win

a title, or falls victim to a run of dominance by a vastly superior oppo-nent as John Stockton and Karl Malone were when they ran into the Houston Rockets and Michael Jordan’s Chi-cago Bulls squads in the prime of their careers, both teams preventing them from getting their hands on that elusive championship.

The point is, if you are truly one of the best it is painfully clear with or without be-ing on the best team. Especially in the case of Chipper Jones. His consistency combined with the pitching of his Hall of Fame team-mates in Greg Maddux, John Smoltz, and Tom Glavine led the Atlan-ta Braves to fourteen

straight NL East titles. In a 162 game season the consistency that Jones brought to third base year in and year out was as valuable as any of his contempo-raries with more post-season success. Jones might only have the 1995 cham-pionship win over the Cleveland Indians as his postseason peak, he may not have 3, 000 hits, 500 home runs, or any of the cliched mea-sures of an “automatic Hall of Famer” that fi ll baseball. But there is a reason that usually one quarter to half empty Turner Field was fi lled for the last two weeks of Jones’ last season, and that when the fi -nal out was put on his career, not one person has questioned that

Jones will be inducted into the Hall of Fame as soon as he is eligi-ble. That is because in an era where steroids and HGH allowed for fl ash in the pan players to put up big numbers fast and fade into the spotlight, Jones year in and year out gave you exactly what you ex-pected from him. At the end of the day people are going to remember the Atlanta Braves of the 90s and the 00s for fourteen straight NL East titles, Bobby Cox in the bullpen, Greg Maddux on the mound, and Chipper Jones playing third base, and isn’t that type of legacy that makes a player great? Goodbye Chip-per, baseball is going to miss players like you.

Harvest wrap upBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

It was a weekend of ups and downs for the Yorkton Harvest as they took on the Battlefords Stars in a Saturday/Sunday doubleheader in early season ac-tion. The Harvest, who were winless heading into their two game set with the Stars, looked the part on Sat-urday afternoon in a 4-0 loss. Battlefords opened the scoring two minutes into the game before adding an-other goal in the second period and a two goal third to give them the convincing victory. Sunday was a different story as the Harvest scored four unanswered goals in the fi rst and second peri-ods to open a 4-0 lead of their own before winning 5-1 in their fi rst win of the season. Lynndon Pastachak had a two goal and one assist effort while Jaden Kreklewich and Eric Meyer had three point nights of their own in a victory that hopefully will spark an early season turnaround for the struggling Har-vest. Spencer Bombior had twenty fi ve saves in the victory, allowing just one goal in a solid goaltending performance. The Harvest now look for another Saturday/Sun-day set at the FAA as they host the fourth place Sas-katoon Blazers who have one win and two overtime points on the season. Saturday’s puck drop is at 7:30 p.m. while Sunday features matinee action with a 2:00 p.m. start.

Cont. from Page 11.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

Dalton Fichtner scored three touchdowns in the fi rst half, running in one of his own and connecting on long yardage passing touchdowns to Layne Hall and Michael Balysky in a game that the Raiders dominated. Estevan did keep things interesting in the opening moments with a touchdown to tie things up early and near-ly answering back again before fumbling on the one yard line on a passing play, creating some con-troversy as Estevan con-tested that they crossed the goal line before the ball hit the ground. How-ever it proved to be a non factor in a game that saw Fichtner sit out a major-ity of the second half as Ryan Krochak took snaps under center as the Raid-ers coasted into second place and have a serious mental edge going into their rematch at Century Field on Saturday. Snowy conditions hit the fi eld to start and end the second half and looks like Cen-tury Field will continue to be frigid in the next few weeks, something that Sharpe considers an edge heading into the playoffs. “We are always a ground attacking team and be-lieve in using the run to set up the pass, both Cen-tral and Peacock use a lot of passing on offense and with weather that can see anything happen on any given day in October it is an advantage to have a strong running game,” said Sharpe. In other action on Tuesday Moose Jaw Pea-cock earned a 28-14 vic-tory over Central off of four rushing touchdowns which created a three way tie that saw Peacock sur-prisingly lock up the fi rst place bye and the winner of the Swift Current-Wey-burn quarterfi nal in the semi-fi nals. Central fi n-ished third and will face a Vanier squad they beat on a last second punt through the end zone in the other quarterfi nal before likely heading to Century Field for a rematch of the Raid-ers only loss of the season in the semi-fi nals. Coach Sharpe knows that even though they beat Estevan handily on Tues-day, they might be a dif-ferent team on Saturday afternoon in a playoff at-mosphere. “Anything can happen, and even though we didn’t show them all of our playbook, they will likely have done the same thing,” mentioned Sharpe. Looking ahead in the playoffs Sharpe la-mented on the fact that they were just four points away from a fi rst round bye as Peacock needed to win by ten points or more to lock up fi rst place and ended up winning by two touchdowns over Cen-tral, but has high hopes going up against both schools going forward. If a rematch against Cen-tral is to happen Sharpe mentioned that they did out gain the Cyclones by over 100 yards and if the Raiders erased their fi ve turnovers on the game it might have been a differ-ent story saying “We shot ourselves in the foot in our one loss of the season.” The Raiders will be look-

ing for Zack Kais return in the playoffs and coach Sharpe hopes that Kais down the middle style will allow him to play at less than 100 per cent. If Kais does not return expect Haas to be the X factor in the Raiders playoff run as he will need to provide the Raiders rushing offence in a relatively new position if Kais is unable to play. With their 5-1 record Sharpe anticipates a good run at the championship from what he considers a great team, but alludes to the fact that “Anything can happen in the game of football, a call here, an inch there, a fumble, an interception, can change

a game or a season in the playoffs.” Homefi eld advantage in the playoffs will be enjoyed by the Raiders for the fi rst time in over a decade as the move to Moose Jaw will allow the Raiders to play their next two games at Century Field up until the poten-tial City Championship game which will continue to be held in Moose Jaw. In just their fi rst year in a new league the Raiders head into the second sea-son with a new identity and new experiences and now a chance to make their mark on the league with their fi rst ever MJFL title.

Raiders head into playoffs with home fi eld advantage

HOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE. The YRHS Raiders will be enjoying playoff action at Century Field in october as they locked up second place with a win over Estevan.

Saluting SurvivorsEncouraging AwarenessRemembering Loved Ones

During National Breast CancerAwareness Month, we standtogether in our support for acure and our support for thewomen who are faced with thedisease. By encouraging breastcancer research and raisingawareness of the importance ofearly detection, we can all helpsave lives.

It is estimated that nearly 200,000 womenwill be diagnosed with breast cancer thisyear, and that more than 40,000 of thesewomen will die. Breast cancer is a threatto women of all ages, races and walks oflife. Even men are at risk for breast cancer,with approximately 1,700 men diagnosedeach year. These numbers remind us whyit is so important to know the signs,symptoms and risk factors of breastcancer. Early detection of breast cancer isthe best weapon against the disease,which means breast self-exams should beperformed regularly, with clinical breastexams every one to three years. By theage of 40, women should begin gettingmammograms every one to two years. Inaddition, healthy lifestyle habits likephysical activity, not smoking, minimizingalcohol intake and consuming plenty offresh fruits and vegetables can helpwomen reduce their risk factors.

If you have been driving in the YBID District over the past week you have probably become a bit frustrated with the constant closures of roadways due to construction.

PLEASE BEAR WITH THE DELAYS!

The City has undertaken several projectsand the many workers in all divisions

are working hard to get things done while theweather is still in their construction favour.

A portion of this work is funding of much neededstreet lights from the Yorkton Business

Improvement District at a cost of approx $40,000.

Also included in this is the newly approveddecorative crosswalk art.

This project of Neck Ties and Piano Keys is a fi rst in Canada, and there are other designs to come. The YBID is paying the tab, about $10,000 for the special stencils.

The Godfrey Dean Art Gallery, under the direction of Don Stein, is taking care of the design and ordering while the regular City crosswalk painters are kicking in their time to put it all together.

As you can see by the photos and by driving through our YBID District, the crosswalks jump out at you,

and that’s exactly what is supposed to happen.The project is designed to make the driving

public more aware of crosswalks and the people in them. Just one car-pedestrian accident is too much,

and YBID felt that we had to try something tomake our streets

more pedestrian friendly

Special paint and designs can’t do it all. YBID asks every driver to slow down,watch the road and look for people crossing our streets,

and by all means put away the cell phone while you’re driving. Let’s work to make Yorkton a place where good DRIVERS happen!
