A Special Publication of THE NEWS REVIEW
By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer
Knowledge is passed from generation to gen-eration through stories, and Aboriginal Storytelling Month is a celebration of that oral tradition. Lyle and Carol Daniels spoke to chil-dren at the Yorkton Public Library to tell sto-ries and teach a bit of language and tradition in the process.
Lyle says that his pri-mary goal for the month is to get kids to appreci-ate elders and seniors in their community. While part of Aboriginal Storytelling Month, he believes that the knowl-edge of the older genera-tion is one of the things that is valuable in every culture.
“One cool thing that the non-aboriginal com-munity has is a large
number of seniors. In the aboriginal community it’s the opposite, we have a small number of elders and seniors.”
Since storytelling is the traditional way of passing knowledge between generations, Lyle thinks that it’s important to make that message a part of story-telling month.
“I want to leave a message with our young people to sit down with seniors because they have the gift of knowl-edge, years of experience and life-long learning that I think needs to be shared from one genera-tion to the next.”
Bringing this message to kids is also a way of getting them to get together with seniors in their families and com-munities before they no longer has the chance.
“There are grandpar-
ents that are long gone that I wish I had the time to pick their brain and gain knowledge from them. We don’t think about that, and now that I’m in my early 50s I realize the impor-tance of that. I want to be able to help youth and especially little kids understand the impor-tance of our seniors and spending time with them. I definitely don’t want to make them feel sad, but to look at it as an opportunity. They won’t be around as long as we would like them to be, but at the same time they have a good deal of experience and so many of their own stories that they can share with young people.”
Storytelling is also how a culture stays alive, Lyle says, especial-ly when there is little of the way in written
records as is the case of the aboriginal people in the area.
“There was very little in the area of written word when it came to our ancestors living in this area. There is evidence of our people living in this area for thousands and thousands of years. Our way of getting that information is through
storytelling. This is our way of making it avail-able to anybody, and the importance of oral tradi-tion to ensure young peo-ple learn from the knowl-edge of other people.
While educational, the goal is to make it a fun experience, with lots of audience participation and involvement from the kids. Lyle admits
that February can be cold and kids can feel trapped indoors, so tell-ing stories is a way to make the best of a Canadian winter.
“It’s a good opportuni-ty for them to just enjoythe day, get out of theclassroom, enjoy some stories and just partici-pate in some fun and laughter.”

Education Minister Don Morgan has pro-claimed February 7 – 13 as Teacher Staff Appreciation Week in Saskatchewan.
“Preparing students for their future is an important responsibil-ity,” Morgan said. “We are fortunate to have dedicated teachers and school staff in our prov-ince who care deeply about helping students. Every day, great things are happening in our schools thanks to their efforts.”
This year’s theme “Creating Learners for Life,” highlights that learning is a life-long experience. The Saskatchewan
Association of School Community Councils (SASC) promotes the week across the province to draw attention to the important contributions that teachers and school staff make to students’ education.
“Teachers model life-long learning through their ongoing educa-tional and professional development opportun-ities, as they work to adapt to changes in cur-riculum and teaching methodologies, student evaluation and the use of new technologies in the classroom,” SASC Director Joy Bastness said. “School staff also work very hard to meet the cultural and diverse
needs of all their stu-dents. We applaud their valuable contributions.”
Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week was introduced in 1988 by The Canadian Home and School Federation, a national organization of parents who volun-teer for schools through Parent School Advisory Councils and Home and School Associations.
Saskatchewan has proclaimed Teacher Staff Appreciation Week for the past 29 years.

Firefighters train to help each otherBY THOM BARKERStaff Writer
When a serious inci-dent happens, people immediately turn to firefighters, EMTs and police for help, but to whom do the first responders turn?
“We have each other and that’s about it,” said Neal Matechuk, president of the local branch of the Professional Firefighters Association.
Now the Saskatche-wan Association of Fire Chiefs has come up with a program to help first responders help each other.
“Basically what we’re doing is putting a committee together to assist in the event that a fire department deals with a traumatic event that affects their first responders,” said Harry Wilkins, Yorkton deputy fire chief, prevention and inspections.
They have divided Saskatchewan into 10 zones, each of which will have a committee of firefighters trained in critical incident stress management (CISM), who can deploy to scenes of tragedy.
In fact, Wilkins and Trevor Morrisey, Yorkton’s fire chief, who have already received the training, have already been deployed to La Loche in the mass shooting incident of January 22.
“It definitely did help the people who were involved up there,” Wilkins said. “It was good, I’ve been in this
a while and to be able to offer them support was very gratifying for myself.
“These guys may not have had anybody to talk to and Trevor and I obviously being in the fire service as well, kind of know what they’re going through and what to expect and we were received very well.”
P o s t - T r a u m a t i c Stress Syndrome has become a hot public topic in relation to the military, but does not get nearly as much atten-tion when it comes to other professions such as firefighting.
Matechuk points out that the Yorkton Fire Service already conducts critical incident debrief-ings following major events. The department’s Collective Bargaining Agreement also includes a Employee Family Plan (EFP) which provides access to counseling, but any additional programs are welcomed by the union.
“[The Saskatchewan Professional Firefighters Association] has lobbied the provincial govern-ment as well to have PTSD as part of their Occupational Health and Safety compensa-tion package and having the fire chiefs on board as well really helps lots,” he said.
The CISM course will be offered to all firefight-ers in the province this spring and again in the fall.
The Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) also announced last week a simi-
lar collaboration it is undertaking with the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC). The initiative tailored MHCC’s Road to Mental Readiness (R2MR) training program to the specific needs of fire ser-
vices and will be offered to firefighters across the country.
This week, 30,000 Ontario firefighters will be the first to receive the training.
All of these programs are based on research
that recognizes early intervention in the form of psychological first aid goes a long way to pre-venting long-term men-tal health issues.
“By investing in early intervention train-ing, we are putting our
people in the best pos-ition to deliver services to our communities, while maintaining their own mental health,” said Paul Boissonneault, CAFC President and Fire Chief, County of Brant, Ontario.
Sunrise Health Region is pleased to wel-come three physicians to the region.
Dr. Morteza Shahrestani will begin practice on February 16, 2016, as a General Practitioner in Preeceville. Dr. Shahrestani will be join-ing Nurse Practitioner, Dawn Kennedy at the Preeceville & District Health Centre.
Dr. Sirous Jafarian began practice on February 1, 2016 as a General Practitioner in Canora. Dr. Jafarian is joining the primary health care team at the Canora Health and Wellness Centre in the Canora Hospital.
Dr. Aryo Rohani began practice on January 18, 2016 as a General Practitioner in Esterhazy, joining the physicians and staff at the Esterhazy Medical Clinic.
“The commun-ities of Preeceville, Canora and Esterhazy are sure to welcome Dr. Shahrestani, Dr. Jafarian, and Dr. Rohani,” says Vice President of Integrated Health Services for Sunrise Health Region, Roberta Wiwcharuk. “Preeceville has been without a perma-
nent physician since December. Having Dr. Shahrestani join Nurse Practitioner Dawn Kennedy is welcome news to the community.”
Sunrise Health Region continues to actively recruit for Preeceville and has recruited a fourth
physician for Canora. The physician is cur-rently enrolled in the Saskatchewan International Physician Practice Assessment (SIPPA) and pending successful completion will join the Canora pri-mary health care team in June, 2016.

The Canadian Cancer Society wants to bring pal-liative care to the forefront in the provincial elec-tion. They say that standards, training and funding are all lacking, and people are not receiving ade-quate end of life care in the province. As a result, with a provincial election looming, they’re pushing hard to get the political parties in the province to consider palliative care for their platforms.
They’re going to face a challenge, because it’s not an issue that engages voters. It can be argued that it’s an issue that should engage voters, but things like palliative care, assisted living facilities and senior care are always more difficult to get funding for and get people to care about. It’s not that we do not think they are important, in an abstract way, it’s that voters tend to be in denial that these are ser-vices they might want or need to use.
There is a certain fantasy that we will live to 103 with a minimal amount of medical attention, before getting shot by a jealous lover. Sure, we might need diagnostic equipment in a hospital – which will prove we are totally fine and have no diseases – or perhaps need additional staffing and doctors in our regions – who will cure us quickly and with a mini-mum of fuss – but the idea of actual end of life care is one that people like to avoid thinking about. It’s necessary, and many of us will have to use it down the road, but people don’t like thinking about their own mortality, so it shuffles to the bottom of the priority list as people deliberately try to forget about it. The people who need it most aren’t going to be long-term political supporters, and everyone else wants to fund things they will admit that they will use in the future.
Voters are more inclined to support projects where they can see some kind of benefit to them-selves personally. It’s selfish, but it’s a natural incli-nation for most people. This is not a bad thing, and I don’t want to say it is. Keeping it within health-care, a new piece of diagnostic equipment is some-thing we can see benefitting us, but it’s going to benefit everyone else too, and it’s going to help in the detection and cure of many diseases people have within the area. It can also be argued that such equipment will make the palliative care funding less urgent, as catching diseases like cancer early make them easier to treat. Make no mistake, the programs we might fund in a selfish manner are still good programs, still necessary and are stuff that we are going to need.
The problem is that when you have a program which people will need but don’t want to admit they will need, it starts to fall by the wayside. While we can see the personal benefit of most healthcare proj-ects, when it comes to palliative care we do not want
to see the personal benefit. Palliative care is for people who are dying, and we aren’t dying, and somewhere in our minds believe will never be dying. Even if we are dying, it’s going to be decades upon decades into the future, so we can put off funding until it’s actually a problem for us. It will also never be a problem for us, because we’re not going to be dying, as already mentioned.
The result of this is that when something needs to get cut, or a program needs to be pushed to the edge in order to fund something else, it’s going to be palliative care. It’s the program that can be ignored in the face of other, more appealing programs that people will admit they want to use. That’s why it gets under-funded, and why the Canadian Cancer Society is trying to make it an election issue and get more visibility to the programs themselves. One can hardly blame the governments of the day for going with the programs that their support base prefer, and people want to think about their lives being saved, not ending.
The end result is that palliative care is being under-funded, since it’s always the program that voters want to think about the least. This isn’t to say that other programs are not valuable, because they definitely are, or that other programs didn’t deserve funding, because they definitely did. It might be selfish to always go for the feel-good pro-grams, but given that those programs do benefit us and other people in the community, our selfishness does have benefits not only for us but for everyone else as well. Instead, it’s to say that we should also see a personal benefit in palliative care, and try to avoid pushing it to the sidelines because we don’t want another reminder of our own mortality. Yes, we are all going to live to 103, active and happy until that jealous lover grabs their shotgun. But if we’re wrong about that, we are going to want quality end of life care, and we are going to see the importance of that not only in our own lives but in those of people who surround us. After decades if pushing it into the corner, it might be time to consider making funding palliative care a priority, rather than pre-tending it doesn’t apply to us.

As of today, the provincial election is just 53 days away, an election that was supposed to be held in the fall, yet you’d never know we are less than two months from the polls.
Sure, there is an occasional Sask Party attack ad on TV trying to associate the current NDP with a government we haven’t seen in almost a decade and an op-ed here and there by pundits such as the Leader-Post’s Murray Mandryk, but that’s about it.
Cam Broten, the leader of the Official Opposition, was only nominated last week as the candidate in Saskatoon-Westview.
Are we still feeling federal election fatigue? Is the coronation of Brad Wall such a foregone conclusion that the oppo-sition just isn’t going to put up a fight? Has the Saskatchewan Party done a good enough job to warrant voter complacen-cy?
It is like we just don’t care, but the fact of the matter is, this election is impor-tant. The current government was given the best of times to work with and yet the premier just announced he will once again be running deficits.
Where is the rainy day fund that any sensible government would have estab-lished during boom times?
As we head into the campaign, assum-ing there is a campaign to come, we must ask ourselves, who has benefitted from the preceding years of prosperity and who is going to pay for them in the com-ing hard times?
This editorial is not necessarily a call for a change in government. We are not advocating one way or another. It is a ral-lying cry for people to wake up and start caring about this election, though.
Every government eventually wears out its welcome. Has the Saskatchewan Party’s time come, or do they have anoth-er four years in them? If we are going to give them another chance, however, it should not be by default, they should have to prove they deserve it.
They have some tough questions to answer.
Why, for example, did they pay three times the government’s own appraised value for land around the Regina Global Transportation Hub (GTH)?
What is the connection between Bill Boyd, now the economy minister, and the people who made millions on that ques-tionable land deal?
Why has LEAN, the government’s con-troversial health care management sys-tem so far cost taxpayers $1,511 for every one dollar it has saved according to a study by Dr. Mark Lemstra?
Why has the cost of the Regina bypass skyrocketed and, more broadly, why is the Sask Party so committed to public-private partnerships (P3) despite grow-ing evidence they benefit the private more than the public?
Why is the government refusing to pro-duce a budget before the election?
All of this also begs the question, is there another political party in Saskatchewan fit to govern?
These issues have been teed up for the opposition like shiny new golf balls. Why are they not driving them down the fair-way?
Elections matter. It is time for voters to start caring about this one.
Things I do with words...

Your early morning planetary line up still stretches across the sky (west to east: Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Venus, Mercury), but to see it, you have maybe a thirty minute window begin-ning around 7:15 a.m. when Mercury clears the horizon, until when the sky becomes too bright. Sunrise is currently two minutes earlier each day, so this is a limited time offer for this week only.
Twelve hours later we have that great win-ter southern sky. Using the Moon as a pointer again, the 11th finds it in Pisces, about eight
degrees (a fist-width) to the right of Uranus; and six degrees to the left on the 12th. The Moon spends the next two days crossing corners of Cetus the Whale and Aries the Ram, and on the 15th will be found a couple of finger-widths to the right of the star Aldebaran in Taurus. After a couple of days passing through the upper reaches of Orion the Hunter, the Moon slides into Gemini the Twins early on the 18th.
Constellations are man-made patterns of stars that have varied over time. There are
eighty-eight officially recognized ones today, and every star in the sky has been assigned to one of them. However, con-stellations are not what they seem. In reality, most stars that appear together in the sky have nothing whatsoever to do
with each other.We’ll start with an
exception. Most of the stars in Ursa Major (the Big Dipper), are about the same age and live in the same stellar neigh-bourhood. This is far from true for most other constellations.
One of the two ‘twin’ stars for which Gemini is named is 33 light years away; its appar-ent partner is almost twice that far. Similarly, while Beteljuice in Orion is relatively near us, half of Orion’s belt stars are twice as far away and the other half are four to ten times fur-ther. In spite of appear-ances, Orion’s stars are nowhere near each other in space. Aldebaran, the brightest star in Taurus, is only half as distant as the ‘V’ of stars behind it, and only one-fifth as far as Taurus’s prime attraction, the Seven
Sisters / Pleiades cluster. In truth, Aldebaran lies much closer to the starsof the Big Dipper than to any in Taurus. EvenSirius, the sky’s bright-est star, is 50 times clos-er to the Sun than it is to any star in its own constellation. What you see bears little relationto reality.
Constellations are groupings of conven-ience: stars that lie along the same line of sight, not near each other in space. It’s merely an illusion we have created to help us make sense of the universe spread above our own back yard.
The illusion of constellations
Twelve governments, including Canada’s newly elected Liberal government, will gather in New Zealand on February 4th to sign the Trans Pacific Partnership, the TPP.
Meanwhile people around the world are mobilizing to stop the agreement from ever being rati-fied - because not much of the TPP is really about trade at all. It’s actually a corporate Bill of Rights that gives transnational corporations the power to under-mine the authority of national governments to pass legislation in the public interest.
The TPP and “trade” deals like it weaken democracy, increase income inequality, endanger our public services, give corporations more rights than the citizenry, further endanger our already stressed environment, and kill jobs.
Most of the governments that want to sign on to the TPP appear to have no real idea how their country’s economy and social systems will be affected by it. Like Canada, they have not done impact studies on past deals nor have they done forecasting stud-ies on the potential impacts of the TPP.
Even so, the evidence is not hard to find.
NAFTA is one of the biggest of these ‘trade deals’. Since Canada, the U.S. and Mexico signed it, Canada has lost over 550,000 manufacturing jobs. The U.S. has lost over a million. Mexico saw a drastic decline in working condi-tions. Wages in all three coun-tries have stagnated or declined. Income inequality has increased. Environmental measures by gov-ernments have been successfully challenged by corporations. We haven’t seen a significant new social program here in Canada since we signed on to this deal.
There were winners how-ever. The biggest corporations in Canada, the ones which had pushed hard for the deal, all saw their profits increase. At the same time the number of people they employed went down. These facts are seldom discussed by our gov-ernments. They don’t fit the nar-rative about how positive these deals supposedly are.
Tufts University in the U.S. did an unbiased study of the likely effects of the TPP. The result was sobering - economic losses for the bigger economies and insig-nificant growth for the smaller economies, along with a net loss of 650,000 jobs throughout the TPP countries. Labour’s share of the national income will decline
throughout the TPP, and income inequality will therefore rise even further.
For this, we are asked to give up democratic control over our economies, the right to make deci-sions about our environment, the right to regulate corporate behav-iour. That is a huge price to pay for, at absolute best, a negligible return.
The TPP will give corporations the right to challenge laws and regulations of our governments. Corporations would have more right to challenge our govern-ments than we do as citizens. And if the challenges are successful, our governments will have to pay out billions of dollars to these companies.
The TPP also has a provision that in future could prevent the development of new publicly run social programs.
In addition it has a provision that governments can decide to privatize their public services, but once they make that decision they can never reconsider even if the decision to privatize was a dreadful mistake.
The TPP would increase cor-porate patent rights, so our drugs will be more expensive.
Some government leaders have boasted about the wonderful
labour rights in the TPP. More empty promises. The labour rights sections are made up of nice state-ments about what government should aspire to do but very little about what they must do.
Environmental protection? The words ‘climate change’ are not even mentioned.
The TPP would severely limit the right of governments to use public spending, on roads or hos-pitals or schools, as a way to build the local economy.
But the most damning descrip-tion of the TPP is that none of its almost 6,000 pages gives govern-ments or workers or the public at large any new rights. Every single page is about limiting the right of governments to control corporate behaviour or about giving cor-porations more rights than they have now.
One government official said that the TPP had to be negotiated in secret because if people knew what was in it, they wouldn’t stand for it.
Well, now we know.Larry Brown is National

For more than a century, Prairie plant breeders have been introducing hardy, disease-resistant orna-mental plants. They have literally changed our landscapes – and all for the better. Here are two new shrubs to consider for spring: a stunning white rose and a pink, reblooming, scented lilac. And for those who enjoy acre-age living, both are deer resistant!
‘Oscar Peterson’ is the latest rose in the Canadian Artists Series. Named after the great jazz musician who was born in Montreal, Quebec in 1925, its large (4 in. diameter), semi-double flowers are a soft cream colour while in bud, but open to a pure white with a central boss (i.e. prom-inent, raised cluster) of yellow stamens.
Non-suckering, com-pact and dense, it is an upright to slightly spreading shrub two feet tall with a spread of three feet. It has deep green, glossy foliage with exceptional disease resistance. A repeat bloomer with slight fra-grance, it flowers from spring to fall. One of the hardiest roses to appear in this series, ‘Oscar Peterson’ is rated to zone 3, but well worth
trying in protected loca-tions in zone 2.
It does best in full sun in well-drained soil. It is perfect as a speci-men for a rose garden or used as a complement in a mixed or shrub bor-der.
History: Award-winning Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) rose breeder Larry Dyck (AAFC Morden Research and Development Centre) crossed ‘Yellow Submarine’ and RSM P02 (a selection of ‘Frontenac’ and a thorn-less rose developed in Texas.) in about 2007. The Canadian Nursery and Landscape Association rose com-mittee was responsible for evaluating the seed-lings and subsequently selecting and releasing the new rose.
‘Pink Perfume’
lilac, developed in the Netherlands, is the latest addition to Proven Winners’ re-blooming Bloomerang lilac series. It blooms heavily in spring on old wood and then, after a short break, it blooms sporadically on new wood from mid-summer through to fall. The red-dish-purple buds open into soft pink flowers that have the delight-ful fragrance that we associate with lilacs. And with it’s rebloom-ing characteristic, that scent wafts through your garden from spring to fall.
With green foliage and a mounded habit, expect a mature height of four to five feet with a spread of five to six feet. Prune just after spring flowering to promote a bushier, dense plant for even more later season
blooms. Besides being deer resistant, it is also mildew resistant.
Plant in full sun on well-drained soil. Rated hardy to zone 3, it is worth trialing in pro-tected gardens in zone 2. It’s ideal in a shrub border or as an accent plant and can even used in containers (but plant in the ground in the fall).

When people come to the emergency depart-ment for non-emergent concerns, it occupies the attention of the nursing staff and physicians who need to be watchful for true emergencies.
An emergency includes injuries or ill-ness that may pose an immediate threat to life or limb, such as severe chest or abdominal pain, breathing difficul-ties, changes in mental status, or accident-relat-ed injuries.
If a medical concern arises, do not hesitate to seek medical attention. If you are having a true emergency, your ambu-lance service and hos-pital emergency depart-ment is there to help
you.“We do not want to
deter anyone who is hav-ing a true emergency from coming to the ER. However, non-emergent conditions such as sore throats, rashes, or pre-scription refills can be more appropriately treated at a physician’s office or with the assist-ance of a pharmacist,” said Carolee Zorn, Manager of Yorkton Regional Health Centre, Emergency Department. “Your family physician knows your health his-tory better than the on-call physician in the ER and is best suited to help you.”
City Medical Centre in Yorkton offers walk-in clinic appointments
seven days a week, including evening appointments. Many physicians’ offices leave appointment times open for clients who need same day appointments with their family phys-ician.

As the final entry of a three-part series on cutting, this column will focus on cutting tech-niques. If you missed either two of my previ-ous columns on knives or cutting boards, please email me at [email protected] and I will be more than happy to send them to you.
Now that you are informed about how to start your knife collec-tion and which cutting boards to use, it is time to focus on the act of cutting itself. Nothing is better than having a personal one-on-one les-son on cutting, but I will try to do my best in writ-ten form to communicate some basic tips to get you started.
When holding a “Chef ’s” knife, it is important to have it bal-anced properly in your hand to reduce fatigue and improve control. To find this balance point, carefully place approxi-mately the middle of the flat side surface of the knife’s blade on your extended index finger a couple of inches over a cutting board. Slowly move the knife, so that your finger travels up or down the knife’s blade, to find the position on the knife where it is com-pletely balanced by your one finger. At that point place your thumb of your same hand on the oppos-ite side of the blade and wrap your remaining fingers around the han-dle.
On a good quality knife, this balance point will be approximately on the first inch of where the blade extends from the handle. This is usu-ally because the knife has a full tang, and the weight of this full tang in the handle offsets the weight of the remain-ing steel in the knife’s extended blade. It may seem awkward at first, to grasp the base of the blade in your hand, but after regular practice, it will become comfortable.
Holding the knife in other fashions, such as having the index finger extended on the top of the knife when cutting, will reduce the amount of control one has and increase the chance of injury. If you find these instructions on holding a Chef ’s knife are unclear, I recommend searching the internet to get a vis-ual of this technique.
Placement of the opposite hand (the one holding the food) is also just as vital to prevent injury. One should grasp the product in a claw type fashion, with the finger tips bent inwards and the thumb tucked behind them. Having the finger tips bent in towards the palm of the hand will get them out of harm’s way of the knife blade, and thus reduce the risk of injury.
Always practice preci-sion and speed will come in time. Having precise cuts is better than risk-ing an injury. Welcome the chance to practice your knife skills with every opportunity and efficiency will come nat-urally.
Dear Chef Dez: Any tips on cutting a
loaf of bread horizontally without it being uneven? For example, cutting a full loaf of French bread in half to make garlic bread. Every time I do it, it is never even.
Pam C.Airdrie, AB Dear Pam: After starting the cut,
it is important to watch where the top edge of your serrated knife is as it moves along the loaf. Don’t watch the part of the knife closest to the handle as it will follow the same even path simultaneously as the top edge. It is closer to where your hand is controlling the knife, and thus less chance for
error as long as the knife is even by watching the top edge.
Also be careful to keep your other hand
completely flat on the top of the loaf as you cut. Any fingers that could be carelessly hanging down off the side of the
loaf are susceptible to being cut accidentally. As an extra precaution, continue to move this hand down the loaf as you cut, keeping it an inch or two away from where the knife is doing the cutting at all times. When you get close to the end of cutting the loaf, move this hand over to the other side of the bread (that has been cut already), to prevent
injury as the knife exits the loaf.

Page 8A - THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, February 11, 2016
In terms of my sport viewing, as I suppose most things in life, I have eclectic tastes.
I could not imagine watching hockey and nothing but hockey. In fact, playoffs in April and May lose my interest rather quickly. This year, if Canadian teams all miss the playoffs, which is a possibility, I won’t likely watch 10-minutes of NHL playoffs.
Interesting, it is in April when a new North American professional rugby league is suppos-ed to launch. I do note as supposed to because to-date only teams in Sacramento, San Francisco and San Diego have been announced, so the timeframe seems rather tight to get three more teams in place, players signed, and fans attracted.
But, I am truly hope-ful they are successful because I love rugby, and there have been sugges-tions after an inaugural year with six teams, the league would expand in 2017, with a team(s) in Canada. It would be at that moment I would become a diehard league supporter.
As it is I watch rugby as often as I can find it on television, although games without Canada involved are of less intrigue.
Now go back to last year’s World Cup of Rugby, and I was watch-ing a ton of rugby. The New Zealand All Blacks won the title, their second straight. They are a jug-gernaut Canada can only dream of emulating.
But Canada was there, sadly failing to win a game in their pool; los-ing to Ireland, France, Italy and Romania. The first two are top-rated teams so losses there was not surprising, but I had hoped the Canucks might manage at least a split in the games against Italy and Romania.
Canada scored 58 points and allowed 131, a 73-point spread.
By comparison, the United States failed to finish in their pool either, scoring 50 and allowing 156, for a 106-point spread.
You can see by the performances of Canada and the US rugby has a long way to go in North America, which is why a pro league would be a major step.
Here’s hoping for a better outcome at the 2016 Americas Rugby Championship (ARC) this month.
The ARC will be the first series of the Americas Rugby Championship (sometimes informally called the “Americas Six Nations”, a reference toEurope’s Six Nations Championship), a new annual western hemi-sphere rugby union championship. It will be contested by Argentina, participating as their ‘A’ team Argentina XV, Canada, United States, Uruguay, Brazil, and Chile.
Canada did get off to a solid start with a 33-17 win over Uruguay on a Langley, B.C. pitch Saturday. It was a very solid first half I watched live online prior to the local Junior Terrier game.
Next up is a game in
Austin, TX, against the US side Feb. 13.
As it is I believe rugby deserves more attention here.
While full team (15 players per side) rugby remains my preferred diversion, which was the rugby played at the afore-mentioned World Cup, there is also the Sevens game of rugby.
While recognizable as evolving out of the full team sport, Sevens is a decidedly different game on the pitch, one where quickness is essential on defence to protect the wide field, and break-away speed is a key ele-ment on offence.
The two games are now, to my mind, distinct entities, with both being pure fun to watch.
With my interest in rugby it was a huge thrill to have the opportun-ity recently to telephone chat with National Team member Nanyak Dala.
Dala (born 18 June 1984) is a flanker, and has played 14 tests for the Canadian national team. Dala currently plays for Castaway Wanderers RFC in the British Columbia Premiership and with Prairie Wolf Pack in the Canadian Rugby Championship.
Dala was born in Jos, Nigeria, but moved to South Africa with his family and took up rugby at age 12. Eventually Dala would go on to rep-resent KwaZulu-Natal provincial teams at vari-ous age-grade levels. Dala and his family would eventually move on to the city of North Battleford in Canada where his father, Gideon, sought job opportunities in the medical field. Dala later moved on to Saskatoon to pursue university educa-tion at the University of Saskatchewan. Once in Saskatoon Dala would go on to join local club side, Saskatoon Wild Oats, notes Wikipedia.
So which of the two distinct rugby games does Dala prefer?
“I don’t particularly prefer one, or the other,” not surprisingly said Dala, who did note with less players on the same sized pitch “there’s less places to hide” in 7s.
And because the game is more wide open, with more tries generally scored Dala said 7s “is definitely more exciting for the fans … It’s less complicated for the fans …
“Sevens being what it is comes down to a couple of points here or there.”
Certainly the profile of 7s rugby is about to grow again as it joins the Summer Olympics roster as a full medal sport.
Rugby sevens at the 2016 Summer Olympics is scheduled to be held in August in Rio de Janeiro. The competition will take two days. The 2016 Summer Olympics marks the debut for rugby sevens at the Summer Olympics, though rugby union was last played at the 1924 Summer Olympics.
The sports will feature for at least this and the 2020 Summer Olympics.
Brazil men’s and women’s teams will auto-matically qualify for the events. Qualification began with the 2014–15 Sevens World Series (men’s) and 2014–15
World Rugby Women’s Sevens Series, where the four teams at the top of the standings qualified for the 2016 Olympic Games. In June–September 2015, each of the six regional rugby unions will have an Olympic qualification event, where one team from each region will qualify.
The final spot will be determined by a repech-age tournament. It will comprise 16 teams from the regional qualifiers: four from Europe, three from Africa, three from Asia, two from Oceania, two from North America and two from South America.
The Canadian women’s team qualified through the 2014–15 World Rugby Women’s Sevens Series.
The men’s team has one last chance to be at the Olympics. The Final 2016 Men’s Olympic Qualification Tournament is an Olympic qualifi-cation tournament for Rugby sevens at the 2016 Summer Olympics which will be held June 18 and 19 in Fontvieille, Monaco. The tournament will use a round-robin format, with the top team qualifying directly to the Olympics.
“There a lot of poten-tial for rugby,” said Dala.
And there is also the World Rugby HSBC Sevens Series which is ongoing. The series has what are essentially tournaments of 7s teams around the world. This past weekend the series was in Sydney, Australia.
Canada struggled in day one losing three matches, but they did play rugby powerhouses New Zealand and Australia. I watched the Australian game live online and it was obvious in that game at least Canada has to grow to be on the same level.
Day two things went better, with three wins including beating Manu Samoa 17-12 to win the bowl final.
Nate Hirayama wound up leading the tournament in points scored (55) and tries (7).
The series switches to Las Vegas for action March 4-6, and then Vancouver March 12-13. Canada has been drawn into Pool D with USA Rugby, The Welsh Rugby Union and South Africa.
Dala said the event in
Canada will be big for the team getting to play at home.
“It’s part of a series,” he said, who added the weekends are tough, but
the team does a good job of preparing through practices designed to simulate playing an intense game, having a break, and then head-ing back to the pitch for another match.
“It’s mentally and physically demanding, but how you train goes a long way,” he said, add-ing in 7s “it’s very high intensity” condensed into a shorter span of time.
“It’s a game of momen-tum.”
The HSBC Series will
make 10 stops around theworld, Vancouver being the sixth stop. March 4-6 the series.
The last round will be held May 21 and 22 in London in the United Kingdom.
“It’s definitely big for us being at home,” saidDala.
It is a weekend I’ll be marking on the calendar to watch some action, and then of course theOlympics where I do hopeboth Canadian teams areplaying.
Rugby deserves higher profile in Canada

A n a g r e e -ment between the Government of Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Abilities Council will provide $904,438 in funding to help the council deliv-er its Partners in Employment program. The program offers a range of services to both individuals and employers to assist people living with dis-abilities in Regina and Moose Jaw.
“The Saskatchewan
Abilities Council does great work that enables Saskatchewan people to enter the workforce to develop their skills and fur-ther contribute to the communities in which they live and work,” Immigration, Jobs, Skills and Training Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “In order to enhance our labour force so it can continue to grow, one of the answers is to remove barriers and encourage inclusive-
ness in the work-place.”
“Partners in Employment offers a continuum of ser-vices designed to assist individuals in achieving their full employment poten-tial,” Saskatchewan Abilities Council Regional Director Corey Hadden said. “The individual-ized services avail-able at Partners in Employment are designed to help people with barriers
find, secure and main-tain long-term com-munity employment. This focused and spe-cialized approach to assisting people liv-ing with disabilities to enter and remain in the workforce is made possible through the investment by the Ministry of the Economy.”
The counci l , through their Partners in Employment offices in Regina and Moose Jaw, will assist up to 423 people living with
disabilities. These are individuals aged 16 or older who are legally entitled to work in Saskatchewan and are facing barriers to employment which may include physical, cognitive or learning disabilities, mental health issues, health conditions, or limited education and work experience.
For more informa-tion, visit the council’s website at www.abil-itiescouncil.sk.ca.

Premier Brad Wall has presented a pro-posal to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to sup-port an Accelerated Well Cleanup Program (AWCP) in Saskatchewan. The pro-posal calls for $156 mil-lion in federal funding to help stimulate employ-ment in the oil and gas service support sector by accelerating the clean-up of oil wells no longer capable of production.
“Saskatchewan is home to a high concen-tration of energy service sector companies and their employees, many of whom are now out of
work,” Wall said. “These are the professionals who are best suited to well cleanup.”
Despite net employ-ment growth of 5,200 new jobs in Saskatchewan over the past year, the resource sector has lost 1,900 jobs during that same period.
“The Accelerated Well Cleanup Program will stimulate economic activity and job creation while at the same time delivering environment-al benefits,” said Wall. “This is responsible resource development and would provide work for a lot of people in
the oil service sector who have felt the impact of the drop in the oil price.”
The AWCP would accelerate the decom-missioning and reclama-tion of 1,000 wells non-producing wells over the next two years and gen-erate an estimated 1,200 direct and indirect jobs in the oil and gas sup-port industry.
“This program will create much needed job growth in the sec-tor at this challenging time and most import-antly, eliminate ongoing fugitive emissions from non-productive wells,” said Dan Cugnet, Chairman of Valleyview Petroleums Ltd, an exploration and produc-tion company based in Weyburn that typically employs between 20 and 80 people, depending on the project. “As an employer in the energy sector, I support and applaud Premier Wall and the Government of Saskatchewan for iden-tifying the benefits of a program like this for the
sector and ultimately all Canadians.”
Reclamation activ-ities include environ-mental site assessment, the safe removal and disposal of old equip-ment, the remediation of oil and salt water spills, the restoration and re-contouring of the site, and the re-vegetation of the land. Further bene-fits of well decommis-sioning include:
•Eliminating fugitive emissions of greenhouse gases including meth-ane;
•Remediating any environmental impacts that might have occurred during well operations;
•Restoring agricul-tural land and critical habitat.
Wall said he has spoken with and writ-ten to Prime Minister Trudeau about this pro-posal.
“The federal gov-ernment has indicated they are considering this proposal and I look forward to a favourable response,” Wall said.

ANSWER:
Land rights sale sees high prices
Saskatchewan’s first sale in the 2016 calendar year of petroleum and nat-ural gas rights raised $5.1 million in revenue for the province. This brings final land sale revenues for fis-cal 2015-16 to $44.0 mil-lion.
While land sale rev-enues show evidence of the current oil market cycle, industry continues to place a premium on the lands they are acquiring in Saskatchewan. The province continues to be a preferred jurisdiction for conventional producers.
February’s sale aver-aged $444 per hectare, compared to Alberta’s latest sale that averaged $117 per hectare and British Columbia’s that averaged $76 per hectare.
“Oil prices continue to have an impact on activity across western Canada, as industry exer-cises caution in increasing their land inventories,” Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. “At the same time, Saskatchewan lands are at a premium, reflect-ing our reputation as the top jurisdiction in Canada, and among the top 10 in the world, for petroleum investment attractive-ness.”
The Weyburn-Estevan area led the way this sale, accounting for 80 per cent of the sale total. Four parcels located west of Estevan received bonus bids totalling $2.1 mil-lion from Mammoth Land Services Ltd. The region has multiple zones of inter-est including the Torquay and Bakken Formations along with the Midale Beds of the Madison Group.
The highest price on a per-hectare basis was $5,006. Mammoth Land Services Ltd. submitted a bid of $162,069 on a 32 hectare lease located south of Arcola.
The Fraser Institute’s most recent annual Global Petroleum Survey of pet-roleum executives rated Saskatchewan number one in Canada and among the global top 10 in its rankings of attractive jurisdictions for invest-ment in petroleum explor-ation and development. Saskatchewan scored highly in the 2015 survey relative to other jurisdic-tions in regards to policy, investment and regulatory climate, geopolitical risk, administrative certainty, labour regulations and employment agreements, environmental regula-tions, trade barriers, taxa-
tion regime and quality of its geological database.
The next sale of Crown petroleum and natural gas rights will be held on April 12, 2016.

The basics of boosting
metabolism
$$100 Visa Card Give Away100 Visa Card Give AwayEnter your name at one of the above business locations for your chance to WIN!
Men and women looking to shed a few pounds and keep those pounds off often look for ways to boost their metabolisms. Some may not know just what metabolism means, and though it is a complicated combination of processes, metabolism is perhaps best explained as the sum of those processes, each of which is instituted to convert food into energy. So it’s no surprise that so many people, especially men and women whose metabolisms have begun to slow down, want to boost their metabolism and turn that food into energy more quickly.Though metabolism is a collection of complicated processes, boosting metabolism can be rather easy. The following are a handful of ways to do so, which can help men and women reach their fi tness goals.
Eat the right foods and eat more often. Many adults have been turned on to the concept of grazing, an approach to diet wherein adherents eat small portions of food every two to three hours instead of the more traditional three square meals per day. But grazing is only effective when men and women eat the right foods. Each small meal should still have nutritional value just as if it were a large meal. When eating smaller meals, include healthy sources of protein and fi ber. Vegetables tend to be especially benefi cial because they are high in fi ber, a nondigestible carbohydrate that is hard for the body to break down. As the body works hard to break down fi ber, it’s burning energy and boosting its metabolism along the way. Fish is another potentially benefi cial food for those looking to boost their metabolisms, as studies have shown that the omega-3 fatty acids found in fi sh oils increase the levels of fat-burning enzymes in the body while decreasing the body’s level of fat-storage enzymes. Eating more often benefi ts the body because doing so stimulates metabolism, reassuring the body that food will be coming on a regular basis. When meals are skipped or there are long intervals between meals, the body reacts as if it might run out of food and begins to store fat.
Add some lean muscle. Lean muscle can boost metabolism, so a workout dominated by cardiovascular exercise won’t have as positive an impact on metabolism as one that includes a combination of weight training and aerobic exercise. When muscles are worked hard, the body needs to work hard to recover and rebuild those muscles, burning more calories and boosting metabolism as a result.
Don’t believe everything you read or hear. Suggestions abound as to ways to signifi cantly improve metabolism. Unfortunately, many of these suggestions boost metabolism but not enough to help people lose weight, which is the ultimate goal of many people looking to boost their metabolisms. For example, green tea has its proponents who feel it can have a signifi cant impact on metabolism thanks to EGCG, a compound found in the tea that has been proven to elevate metabolism. However, the impact of EGCG on boosting metabolism is negligible, and therefore won’t make much of an impact on a person’s weight. The same can be said about capsaicin, an active component found in chili peppers that some feel boosts metabolism enough to promote weight loss. Though capsaicin can boost metabolism slightly, studies have shown that infl uence is not signifi cant enough to affect a person’s weight.
Don’t get too comfortable. Modern technology may be a reason why waist sizes are getting bigger. Heating and cooling systems may be must-have items, but when the body is too comfortable, it burns less energy to stay warm in the winter or comfortably cool in the summer. A study from the National Institute of Health Clinical Center found that people who slept in a room kept at 66 F burned 7 percent more calories than those who slept in a room at 75 F. Sleeping in a cooler room may just be the easiest way for men and women to boost their metabolisms.Boosting metabolism and shedding extra pounds is a goal for many men and women. But while metabolism is a complex set of processes, the various ways to effectively boost that metabolism can be quite simple.

The Travelling MabelsA “Stars For
Saskatchewan” performance presented by the Yorkton Arts Council,
Monday, February 29, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. in the Anne Portnuff Theatre, Yorkton Regional High
School. The Travelling Mabels,
voted ACMA 2011 “Group of the Year,” are a folk/
country female trio full of spirit, spunk and laugh-ter. Collectively, their
songs bring a wealth of life experience to the
stage. Singularly, each woman can vocally stand alone, but once you hear the combined harmony
blend, you will know why these three women came together. The beauty of the Mabels is that they represent three genera-
tions of women. This has opened the door to a dynamic energy both
musically and in the rap-port with the audiences
that most wouldn’t experi-ence every day. With
musical influences from Dolly Parton & Bob Dylan
to Sheryl Crow, along with their comedic, yet often heart-felt take on
life, they more than meet a wide range of audience expectations. www.the travellingmabels.com
Tickets are available at the Yorkton Arts Council, 306-783-8722, or Welcome Home Gift Shop. You can
also go online at www.yorktonarts.ca or www.ticketpro.ca

Samuel Deason A “Stars For
Saskatchewan” performance presented by the Yorkton Arts Council,Thursday, March 31, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. in the Anne
Portnuff Theatre, Yorkton Regional High School.
Samuel Deason presents Kaleidoscope. A project
crafted with the intention of delving the depths of
emotion and color. Intensity will be artfully
controlled through a care-fully selected and diverse repertoire contrasting in tension and release, cul-minating with explosive momentum to the end.
Although each composer is famous and brilliant by his own right, some of the
pieces are quite rarely heard by a live audience. Resoeugi’s Notturno for example, is an absolute gem in the piano reper-toire and is among the
most beautiful pieces ever composed. This mix of
music is just the right one to balance inspire, and zap one’s physical ener-gies, and musical palate!

the Yorkton Arts Council, 306-783-8722, online at www.ticketpro.ca or at
