Community plan unveiled: feedback soughtBy DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The City of Yorkton recently unveiled a draft community plan for the city, named Our City, Our Future. Jim Walter with Crosby and Hanna recently pre-sented the plan a Chamber of Commerce Business Lunch held in the city. The document is based on the expecta-tion that Yorkton’s pop-ulation will double by 2036, which will mean 6-8,000 new housing units in that period. Walter says that the plan involves the prin-ciples of smart growth, which he says is a recent trend in urban planning which help a community become healthier. A goal for the city is to keep travel distances

low, and Walter says one of the ways to do that is to promote intensification of cur-rent infrastructure, in areas such as the city’s downtown core. He says that there needs to be ways to encourage higher density develop-ment and use of cur-rently serviced areas, to minimize the cost of infrastructure and use less land. When it comes to neighborhood design, Walter says that hav-ing a variety of lot sizes is a priority, as well as varied density of hous-ing, to accommodate a wide spectrum of peo-ple. He notes that the city also needs to keep natural features, and that it must embrace the current trend of maintaining wetlands rather than filling them in for the sake of devel-

opment. Maintaining wetlands allows them to function as an addi-tional flood control mechanism, and recent-ly municipalities have seen the value of keep-ing these areas. Some changes sug-gested would be altera-tions to the bylaws con-cerning secondary suites, to encourage basement, garden, and garage suites. Walter says that feedback on that area would be wel-comed. The city is also looking for feedback concerning signage, including regulations surrounding billboards and the location of por-table signs. Walter emphasizes that con-sultations are vital to get the community travelling in the direc-tion people want. One area which caused controversy was

the proposal for a minor reduction in the mini-mum size for parking spaces, reduced from 2.75 meters to 2.70 meters. Attendees at the event suggested that with the relatively large segment of the population driving large trucks, it makes sense for Yorkton to have a larger than average parking spot requirement, given the difficulty of parking such vehicles. Walter said that while the goal was to align the Yorkton bylaws with the rest of the province, this might be a suggestion that gets revised given the feedback. The consultation pro-cess is ongoing, and people can still have input into the overall plan. Residents can currently view the plan online at yorkton.ca.

The Health Foundation’s annual Charity Road was a great success, raising $28,114 for local health care ini-tiatives. Executive Director of the Foundation, Ross Fisher, says there were 236 registered runners who participated in the Charity Road Race on Sunday, August 18. “We were very pleased to have a great turn-out, and to see the runners collect so many pledges and raise so much money. This year 650 pledges were collected, with 24 runners raising over $300.” The Charity Road Race has several goals each year: • to provide an opportunity for people to learn to run by putting on free running clinics from May to August; • to hold a fun and well organized Charity Road Race that everyone from the beginning runner to the com-petitive runner can participate in; and, • to raise funds for the purchase of medical equipment that will provide an improved or new service to the resi-dents of this region. This year’s top Fundraisers were: Dave Matichuk, $2,415; Dennis Fuchs, $1,305; Tracy Newton of Saskatoon, $1,135; Kyle Dressler $1,096, and Adele Pask $1,035. The race winners were as follows: – One half Marathon: Rick Vaughn won the men’s race with a time of 1:29:59; Shannon del Bigio won the women’s race with a time of 1:47:50 – 10 km: John Svec won the men’s race with a time of 38:32; Jodi Souter won the women’s race with a time of 38:12 – five km: Jaden Porte won the men’s race with a time of 18:38; Robyn Luthi won the women’s race with a time of 19:56 – five km 13 to 15: Cole Burkholder won the men’s race with a time of 19:04; Sarah Novakowski won the women’s race with a time of 24:04 – two km Junior Run: Tyler Walker won with a time of 8:53 The Road Race attracted runners from throughout the region, and from as far away as Winnipeg. Full race results can be seen at resultscanada.com

Get set for an evening in Paris – Health Foundation Gala planned

AN EVENING IN PARIS has been selected as the theme for this year’s Health Foundation Gala. Pictured above, Ross Fisher, Executive Director of The Health Foundation (left), and Diane Rusnak, Chair of the Gala Committee, announce the upcoming event.

The Health Foundation has announced the theme for it’s 18th annual gala. This year’s event will be An Evening In Paris. It is slated to take place on Saturday, October 19 2013 at St. Mary’s Cultural Centre in Yorkton. “We’ve never had Paris as a theme, but we are excited about this year’s theme. Paris has huge history, and when you think about Paris thoughts of rich food, music, dancing, art and romance are evoked. It’s perfect for a Gala evening,” says Diane Rusnak, Chair of the Gala Committee. The star of the evening, like every year, will be the food and dance that defines the night. As well, Mitch Hippsley, of Photography by Mitch, will take

complimentary portraits of guests; Sherring Gold Jewellers is once again donating a piece of jewellery for a raffle; and the Gala has a Silent Auction, limit-ed to 40 select items donated by the business community from throughout the region. “The last several Gala Evenings have sold out and have been huge successes, and we are going to improve and build on that suc-cess by making Gala better every year. For those who like to dance Gala is of course a must, as we always feature a live band that can play a range of music and keep the dance floor full. Our band this year is the Crawdaddys, who have played for us before; they are back by popular demand.”

Over the years, the Gala events have purchased over $403,000 of important medical equipment for the region’s healthcare facili-ties. This year the proceeds of Gala will go toward the purchase of new Cardiac Stress Test equip-ment for the Regional Hospital. Seating for Gala will be limit-ed to 350 people. “Gala evening has sold out in past years and we need to limit the guests to prop-erly plan for the evening. We don’t like to crowd the dance floor.” Ticket order forms are avail-able in person from The Health Foundation office at 41 Betts Avenue in Yorkton. Please call 306-786-0506 or order from The Health Foundation website: www.thehealthfoundation.ca.

Submitted by Regional KidsFirst • If you sing number songs when you walk, drive of cuddle with your child... Your toddler will: hear the order of numbers; use todder talk to imitate the songs and order of numbers; and, imitate counting, although she may get the order wrong. Introducing the idea of numbers to your children does not have to be a fi ght. In fact, as a parent, you can start introducing number sequence as early as 12 months old. Fun ways you can do this is by sing-ing songs or nursery rhymes that are based on num-bers. Such songs as “One, two, buckle my shoe,” or “Five little pumpkins sitting on a fence,” are great ways to help your child remember the numbers and se-quences. When your child is around the 2 year old mark, they might be able to sing the songs and remember the numbers, but not quite understand the concepts. This is a time of many mistakes – and that is ok! If your child is counting – “One, two, fi ve, six…” just means that she is learning the correct names. With a bit of time and practice he will learn to point

to objects and label them with numbers. To help your child understand the concepts of numbers, take daily activities to re-enforce the counting. “One nap-kin for mommy, one napkin for daddy, one for you! One, two, three napkins!” At fi rst, your child might only see three napkins regardless of how many are actually on the table. However, at some point he will start to understand that the word “three” actually means there are only three napkins on the table.

The Yorkton Tribal Council’s labor force development program is about getting unem-ployed and under employed local First Nations people employ-ment and the opportunity to improve their lives. Wilfred Whitehawk with the YTC recently spoke at a Chamber of Commerce luncheon on the benefits of the pro-gram. There are three differ-ent ways that employers can participate in the program. One is a work experience partnership, which runs up to 26 weeks in length, a transi-tion to employment part-nership, which runs 16 weeks and ends with the client securing employ-ment upon completion. The newest program is the apprenticeship part-nership, which eventual-ly leads to the employee learning the trade. Whitehawk notes that under this last program, for example, there are cli-ents working at R. Miller’s Plumbing and Heating working towards journey-man status, as well as some working with the Department of Highways working towards Heavy

Equipment Mechanic journeyman status. Whitehawk says that there are benefits for both the clients and partners by taking advantage of the program. Clients get valuable experience and employment, while employers are able to expand their workforce and get good employees. One thing that benefits

everyone is the ability to keep people local as they look for work or workers. “The City of Yorkton’s economy is getting better each year, taking advan-tage of the jobs in the area can help keep our workers in the province and help build a work-force, replacing the expe-rience being lost to retire-ment,” Whitehawk says.

Another advantage for employers is that it allows them to get first hand experience with First Nations employees. Whitehawk admits that employee retention is an issue, and part of the problem is the differences in culture. By using the program, it can help employers ‘bridge the gap,’ something Whitehawk says will be important in the future. “The First Nations community is one of the fastest growing demo-g r a p h i c s i n Saskatchewan, and Canada in general,” Whitehawk says. The programs take advantage of local educa-tion, such as Parkland C o l l e g e a n d Dreambuilders to help prepare clients for the workplace, as well as resources to help with any culture changes which either side might need to understand to make the program work. The YTC is open to help with employment issues for both clients and employers, and Whitehawk encourages employers in the region to take part in the pro-gram and use their resources and assistance to help grow their own workforce.

Canada’s EI program is meant to support Canadians who lose their jobs through no fault of their own while they look for work or upgrade their skills. Eligibility for Employment Insurance (EI) ben-efits is determined based on the number of insur-able hours worked in the previous 52 weeks from the date of job loss. All benefits must generally be taken within 52 weeks after the date of job loss. Benefits not taken within this period lapse once the 52-week benefit period has expired. However, there are a few exemptions that allow for an extension to the qualification period or the benefit period. One of these exemptions was for individuals “confined in a jail, penitentiary or other similar institution.” Individuals who were jailed were allowed to extend the qualifying peri-od in which to count insurable hours by the num-ber of weeks that they were confined, to a maxi-mum of 104 weeks, or to extend the period in which benefits could be paid, depending on when

the confinement occurred. What this meant in practice is that under the past system, convicted criminals who served one year in prison were, once released, allowed to look back beyond the one year for an additional 52 weeks. If they worked enough hours in the year before they were incarcerated, they would then qualify for benefits after their release from jail. In contrast, individuals who took a year off

work to spend time with their family would, on their return to their job, have to work enough hours to re-qualify for benefits. If they lost their job before they re-qualified for benefits, they would receive no benefits. On June 26, 2013, Bill C-316 ended the exten-sion offered to convicted criminals. As of June 30, 2013, they will no more have longer qualifying and benefit periods than law-abiding Canadians.Those people found not guilty of the charges that detained them may continue to receive exten-sions. They will, though, need to wait for the out-come of their judicial proceedings before request-ing an extension of their qualifying or benefit period. Our government holds the position that it’s unfair to Canada’s law-abiding citizens to give preferential treatment to convicted felons who apply for EI benefits. The change means that all Canadians must satisfy the same criteria when applying for EI.

No more EI extensions for convicted claimants

THE NEWS REVIEW

Kids are dying it’s time for change

It’s a shame in a way that happenings like this aren’t more commonplace, but nonetheless it’s refreshing to see a head-line that doesn’t involve murder, theft or destruc-tion. The scene unfolded in smaller town New Jersey. Police were called because of a suspected burglary. Four young black men were seen entering a store after hours so of course, most would believe the worst. What’s great about this story is that all of the doubters, haters and profilers would be wrong. As it turns out, the four young men are University football players. (Not that this matters in the grand scheme of things. What matters is the morals of these young men.) Running late for practice they stopped at a local store to pick up a few things. They approached the front door and it was unlocked so they went in. (A faulty locking system was apparently to blame.) Video surveillance shows the men walking about the store, appearing as though they were looking for a store associate to help them. No employees appeared. What would you do in this case? There are a number of options. Realizing the store is empty you

could put your potential purchases down and leave. You could also leave with them in hand and not pay a cent, after all, it’s not your mistake the doors were left open. Choosing neither of the above options, these men picked up what they need-ed and left full payment on the counter before leav-ing.

“...we decided to put the money on the counter instead of stealing, because that’s just not right,” said one of the men involved in an interview follow-ing the incident. Police apparently arrived on the scene shortly after the fact and alerted the store owner that there “may have been a break in,” but upon watching the security tape the real story unfolded. So thrilled with the honesty of her ‘customers,’ the store owner tracked down the men and invited them back to her business. Because they were so stand up, she rewarded them with thank you gifts in the form of needed purchases for their dorm rooms. NICE. You can’t judge a book by its cover and you can’t paint a generation with one brush and that’s a good thing. “Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and astound the other.” – Mark Twain

The way I see it...

In the television show Futurama, there is a running joke about the French language being dead and obscure in the distant future. I thought of this when I learned that students in Tisdale will not have the option to take core French as part of their regular school activities, though an online class will be offered. The North East School Division is saying that the class was dropped because of low enrolment, so the division thought it more advantageous to allocate teachers elsewhere. Whether or not this is a good idea partially depends on whether or not the prophecy of the animated pro-gram is fulfilled. If French continues to matter, then the continued existence of a French program will continue to matter, whether or not the students in the school division realize it or not. If French is a dying language, then it doesn’t make sense to learn it, and resources could be put into a different language. In this case, I don’t think I would put French on life support just yet. Yes, it’s not as popular as some other languages in the world, but it remains one of the national languages of Canada, and as a result it’s going to be necessary for a lot of people to have at least a basic understanding of it. It’s a basic under-standing that would even apply to jobs you would not expect, or even just being a tourist in certain areas of

the country. Knowing the language, in Canada at a bare minimum, is helpful. Even just having a rough understanding of the language can be useful if you are forced into an area where you see a lot of French, as you would know the basic rules and be able to glean some meaning from what is seen and heard. If French is not dead yet, and there is still value in the language, we are lead directly to the problem of the students, who have abandoned language courses en masse in that particular school division. The prob-lem, then, is not that French is useless, it’s that stu-dents are unaware of the potential use that the lan-guage might have in their every day lives. It’s a com-

mon problem with a lot of subjects in the school sys-tem, one must convince a teenager that it is something of value, but teens frequently don’t quite recognize something’s worth. It’s the same reason you see kids complain that they will never use complicated math in real life, even if they are using rough approxima-tions of it to solve other problems. The applications of such things are not immediately obvious, but help your understanding of how things work. The problem is that it’s difficult to fully articulate the value of French. It’s a class I found useful years later, but not because of any of the specific words and phrases I learned. I certainly couldn’t tell you any-thing useful in French, the phrase “Le pamplemousse est dans la bibliotheque” is not going to find any prac-tical applications, unless you habitually forget grape-fruits in libraries. It’s all about learning the rules, the ability to detect patterns and likely meanings in unfa-miliar French sentences. It’s not fluency, I would need much more advanced French classes for that, but it gives one the ability to muddle through, and the basic understanding would be helpful if I needed to fully learn the language. Now that the class is being dropped, it is clear that something needs to be done, so kids can fully grasp the need to learn languages outside of their own.

There are definite gaps in the system and flaws in society if we have happen-ings like this going on. Tragically, a six year old area boy – who was under the care and protection of the Saskatchewan Social Services – is no longer with us. On the day that little Lee Allan Bonneau was to begin his first day of Grade two, police and officials were gathering for a news conference to address how it is the young boy could have met the fate he did. In foster care, Bonneau was visiting the Kahkewistahaw First Nation with his foster parents, who were on the reserve to play Bingo in the Education and Sports Complex, when he was beat-en and killed by a 12 (ish) year old boy who lived on the reserve. Apparently the 12 year old – who is believed to have used a blunt force weapon to beat Bonneau to death – had been in trouble many times before. Too young to be charged criminally, he now sits in a government facility while offi-cials try to make sense of what happened and where to go from here. This isn’t purely a racial issue. The six year old was non-Aboriginal. That said, it is a situation that begs answers. Why was this 12 year old so troubled that he wound up taking a life? What kind of an environment was he being brought up in? How can we as a society change that? What kind of home was the six year old placed in? Was there no supervision whatsoever that day? Where do we go from here, in a society that says the youth is too young to be held responsible for his actions? The Chief of the First Nation is blam-ing a lack of government funding for what has happened. With more funding he says, there would be additional resources for health and educational issues. It seems to always come down to this. At what point do we say – what we are doing is NOT working. Throwing money at an already messed up situa-tion will not make things any better. It’s time for an overhaul. Bonneau is reportedly the fifth child in the Saskatchewan Social Services sys-tem to die in the last four years. It’s time we start digging and start demanding answers. We are failing our children and something has to give.

To the Editor:

In recent years, Canadian busi-ness and government leaders have directed much of their attention to emerging Asia – not only China and India, but also countries like Ko-rea, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and several others. Often overlooked in discussions of what some analysts refer to as the “Asian century” is a country that, until recently, was the largest econ-omy in the region: Japan. The past two decades have been unkind to Japan. It has grappled with a long period of economic mal-aise following the collapse of its stock and real estate markets in the early 1990s, deteriorating public fi nances, the onset of negative population growth, and – more recently – natu-ral disasters. Many decision-makers in North America appear to believe that Japan no longer matters. But it would be a mistake to ignore the country. Consider, fi rst, that Japan is still has the world’s third biggest na-tional economy, behind the U.S. and China. And it is a fairly prosperous one: per capita gross domestic prod-uct is US$36,900, using purchasing power parity exchange rates. This puts Japan ahead of many Euro-pean countries and makes it four times richer than China. Japan is highly productive, owing to its well-educated population, strong manu-facturing sector, and modern infra-structure. Over the period 1990 to 2010, Japan led the G8 countries in productivity growth, despite its well-advertised macroeconomic and structural problems. Japan is an infl uential trading nation, ranking as the world’s 4th largest exporter; it is also the 4th biggest import market. Endowed with few natural resources, it has evolved to become a leading global supplier of sophisticated products,

particularly manufactured goods. Japan has a strong base of human capital. Adult literacy is just a notch below 100 per cent. High school completion is almost universal, post-secondary attainment rates are rel-atively high, and the country hosts six of the 100 top-ranked global uni-versities. Two areas of persistent weakness are female labour force participation, where it lags behind other developed countries, and its failure to use immigration to aug-ment workforce skills and mitigate the problems posed by population decline. Japan is home to a signifi cant number of global-scale enterprises. According to Fortune magazine’s Global 500 publication, 62 of the world’s 500 largest corporations – including six of the top 50 – are headquartered in Japan. (Canada is home to just nine). Japanese fi rms are well represented among the ranks of the world’s leading produc-ers of automobiles, machinery and equipment, insurance, heavy manu-facturing, and trading. Geographically, Japan is ideally situated to benefi t from ongoing economic development in broader Asia. Since the early 1990s, it has expanded and deepened commercial connections with other Asian mar-kets, and Japanese corporations are among the most prominent inves-tors in the region. Japan today is a critical link in Asian-centric global supply chains. Gross government debt has reached an alarming 235 per cent of GDP, the highest among all ad-vanced countries. Yet interest rates have long been at rock-bottom lev-els, and the government seemingly has no trouble fi nancing its massive debts. It turns out that the Japa-nese public sector also holds exten-sive fi nancial assets, which serve to partially offset its aggregate debt, leaving a net debt burden closer to

130 per cent of GDP (still high, but not much more so than in several European nations). Moreover, Japan is a compara-tively low-tax jurisdiction, with tax-es collected equal to 33 per cent of GDP, well below the average for all advanced economies. This means it has room to increase taxes to assist in putting government fi nances on a fi rmer footing. Finally, while Japan’s public sec-tor is heavily indebted, in a macro-economic sense the country is a net creditor to the rest of the world, in the amount of some $3 trillion. This refl ects Japan’s high household sav-ing rate, coupled with the large stock of Japanese investment abroad. On this metric, Japan, perhaps surpris-ingly, may be in a stronger fi nancial position than some other nations with proportionately smaller gov-ernment debt burdens. Japan has gained some momen-tum since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his party assumed offi ce last year. It is too early to know how success-ful “Abenomics” will be. But Japan’s economy grew by almost 2 per cent in 2012, and The Economist Intelli-gence Unit sees real GDP expanding by 1.7 per cent this year and 2.1 per cent in 2014. These are decent GDP growth rates for a country with an aging and slowly shrinking popula-tion. Canada’s two-way trade with Japan reached $25 billion last year, with 3,000 Canadian fi rms export-ing to the country. Direct Japanese investment in Canada stands at $15 billion. By any measure, Japan re-mains an important economic and political partner for Canada. In the rush to strengthen Canada’s com-mercial presence in the Asia-Pacifi c, it is important that we not neglect relations with Japan.

To the Editor:

The central branding message of the United States encapsulating freedom, democracy and capitalism is the Ameri-can Dream. Clearly, our country and the world in which it resides have seen better days, but we have a road map for getting back on track, and it starts with the individ-ual. Violence is more than perpetrating physical harm – it can also be mental, emotional and spiritual coercion. The root of the word ‘terrorism,’ for exam-ple, is terror, a mental state. I believe we have been violently coerced, as in-dividuals and as a society, into stray-ing from what is essential to our well-being. On the individual level, if we are more truthful to ourselves as spiritual beings, we will bring more generosity and kind-ness into the world every day, she says. On a larger scale, societal obstructions include misguided government policies and agencies at home, dictators abroad, terrorism and deceitful preachers. Choose to act out of love, not fear. When our true spiritual nature is not dictating our actions, it’s readily ap-parent to any reasonably attuned in-dividual. Various fear-based bad ideas, however, blind individuals and prevent them from connecting cause (fear) and effect (violence, selfi shness, etc.) When we make choices that are truly based in love, we are connecting to the good of our souls, which, in turn, connects to the benefi t of greater society. Use your inner “GPS guidance system” – intuition. Flesh, blood, material pos-sessions and money – these are things you cannot take with you when you die. This should remind us that though mon-ey may be necessary in life on Earth, it does not buy happiness, as several stud-ies indicate. Peace and goodwill are the coordinates of our beings that are, sadly, often blocked in today’s world. Individ-uals tend to resist the things they most desire in life – peace and goodwill. Embrace suffering as a guide to higher purpose. Often, we are told that suffer-ing is something to be avoided. Pain and suffering on a personal level, how-ever, is an indication that something is wrong. At the same time, there is pro-vided a spiritual healing grace to one’s vulnerability. Let this sensation reas-sure you that there is a pull of purpose within you, and the pain felt can be overcome en route to a life fi lled with meaning. Blend spiritual being-ness with hu-man doing-ness. Euripides, one of Ath-ens’ great tragedians from antiquity, wrote, “The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowl-edge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man.” Just as our U.S. Constitution includes a system of checks and balances so, too, must each of us establish checks and balances be-tween the spirituality within us and the actions of human beings around us. Liv-ing without balance, we risk extremism on the spiritual or worldly level.

Winning back the ‘American dream’

It’s a big mistake to ignore Japan

To the Editor:

For centuries (1648 - 1999) inter-nal affairs were not considered rea-son for countries to attack another country. In 1999 without sanction by the United Nations NATO attacked Serbia. In 2011 the United Nations agreed to intervention to protect civilians - NATO extended this to air attacks ensuring the defeat and then the death of the Libyan ruler.

The words of those governing Canada indicate they are uncriti-cally following the direction United States “Harper and Obama want ‘fi rm response’ to Syria attack” In that a “Syria strike needs Se-curity Council approval, UN says” questions arise: Will action be tak-en against the present government of Syria?; Will it be with or without United Nations sanction?; Will the basis on which action is taken be soundly based or of the same nature

as that which led to Iraq being at-tacked?; Will Canada be committed with or without the approval being given by a majority of Members of Parliament through a vote in the House of Commons? Most importantly: Will Canada and Canadians be rightly viewed by other peoples as nothing more than the U.S of A’ northward extension?

Joe Hueglin, Niagara Falls, ON.

Will Canada be viewed for what it really is?

To the Editor:

Was it accidental, negli-gent or deliberate? The Harper govern-ment is clearly no fan of Co-operatives and Credit Unions. In its frenzy to slash programs and ser-vices, it has gutted the federal Co-ops Secretariat and eliminated business development initiatives. It has even attacked Co-operative housing. Most recently, Credit Unions (CUs) have been targeted for a Conserva-tive tax-grab. In his last budget, Stephen Harper hit Credit Unions with a whopping new tax in-crease. And this from someone who claims – ob-viously falsely – that he doesn’t raise taxes! Refusing to recognize the structural and opera-tional differences between CUs and big banks, Mr. Harper is sticking CUs with the same tax rate as fi nancial corporations

at least 16-times larger – meaning their effective rate is ballooning by more than one-third, from the previous level of 11 per cent to a new rate of 15 per cent. That’s a huge hit, but it gets worse. The legislation the Harper Conservatives rammed through Par-liament last spring – in another odious Omnibus Bill with ludicrous limits on scrutiny and debate – imposes a new effective tax rate on Credit Unions (and ONLY on Credit Unions) of 28 per cent (not just 15). That’s brutal. It would kill the sector. This massive new CU tax was discovered and disclosed in a recent in-dependent examination of federal budget measures by the Deloitte accounting fi rm. The Finance depart-ment now says it was all just a “mistake” that they already knew about. But

if that’s true, why hadn’t they disclosed it them-selves and announced a clear plan to fi x it. It’s hard to believe that such an egregious tax in-crease was accidental. Remember, this is a gov-ernment that’s desperate for cash. By hook or by crook, the Conservatives are determined to concoct the illusion of a balanced budget by 2015, which just happens to be just be-fore the next federal elec-tion. How convenient! So, they’re over-esti-mating revenues, mak-ing defi cient provisions against risk, counting on big programs (like infra-structure) to under-invest by large amounts, slash-ing a long list of frontline services, refusing to put any new money into job training, and hiking tax-es. Yes, HIKING TAXES big time! In this last budget, for example, there are new Conservative taxes not

only on Credit Unions, but also on small busi-ness owners, on job cre-ation and consumer prod-ucts totalling more than $1.5-billion every year. And that’s assuming the new CU tax rate is actu-ally just the 15 per cent stated in the budget itself, and not the much higher 28 per cent that was writ-ten into their legislation. If this rate discrepancy was deliberate deceit, it’s reprehensible. If it’s truly a mistake, it refl ects star-tling incompetence. At the bottom-line, there’s no justifi cation for any new tax burden on Credit Unions. Their ef-fective rate should remain at 11 per cent – where it was before the Harper regime set out to punish them. Kudos to Deloitte for exposing this fi asco.

Adding insult to injury for Credit Unions

The first day of school can be an important milestone for both par-ents and child. But it can also be an emo-tional roller-coaster for both parents and the child. You have been waiting for this day for some time, but you are faced with mixed emo-tions as your little child is now grown up and now ready to start school. To make the transi-tion to school a little easier, it may help to take your child to school and pick them up after school those first few days. You will want your child to feel com-fortable when going to and from school. When your child knows how to get to school alone, you will feel more at

ease to have them walk or ride their bikes to school. Children usually adjust to this new life style of school much faster than we do. In a few days they have made some new friends, and they will enjoy the activities happening at school. Children will adapt to their new envi-ronment very quickly. I recall when our grandchildren started school, they were intro-duced to four children at a time, the following day four more children joined the group until all the children had met each other. Dealing with a fewer number of children made the tran-sition to school a lot easier for children and teachers. Explaining to the children what will be happening at school can ease some of your

child’s anxiety. Listening to your child will be an important tool to know how they are adjusting to school life. When children come home from school, take the time to listen to what has happening during their day.If you as a parent have any concerns about your child, you would do will to share these concerns with the teacher. Together you will make a better team to help your child dur-ing that first year of school. As parents we may shed a tear as this small child heads off to school, but let them be tears of joy, because your little one is grow-ing up and entering an exciting new phase in their life. This past week I was sent an email prayer and I would like to

share with you. I do not know its origin. As you head out to school today, May the strength of God be with you, The power of God uphold you, And the wisdom of God guide you. May the eye of God watch over you this day,May the hand of God protect you, May the love Christ always shield you . As you go off to school to work and play. Amen Margaret Anne Yost nursed for 35 years. Returning back to school I completed classes from the Red River College in the areas of Gerontology, Bereavement, Death and Dying. For twelve years I worked in bereavement support at a funeral home. At present I am employed as an Interim Parish Worker at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Melville, Sask. I also enjoy my role as homemaker, wife, mother and grand-mother.

Singer/Songwriter Justin Hines wants to give back. It might be by giving audiences a good time or by giving to local charities across the country, promoting positive social change. Hines will be in Yorkton on September 10, with proceeds from the concert going to YAIL Harbor. Hines says that the show expresses a love of storytelling and music. He also says his primary goal at every show is to connect with the audience and to give them an experience on an emotional level. “We’re really fans of an experience that people can relate to on an emo-tional level. That’s our goal, and we play music about what we want to communicate. Hopefully people are having a good time,” he says. Hines recently released the album How We Fly, which is an optimistic album recorded during a difficult time in his life, when he says he wasn’t sure he could even sing any-more. The resulting record bears the mark of the time it was recorded, but remains hopeful in spite of any hard-ships involved. “We weren’t sure if it was a good time to make an album, we were going through some physical chal-lenges, and things like breathing and singing were a little bit challenging. It’s pretty hard to make a record when you’re in that zone, but we decided to plough through it and luckily enough we’re at the other end of it now, and things are good now. It’s interesting to make an album in that kind of time. “I’ve always been a relatively opti-mistic guy, and like anybody you go through peaks and valleys, and it was one of the bigger valleys I can remember. Naturally, when you’re creating something, it’s hard not to

channel what you’re dealing with.” With this tour, all proceeds from ticket sales will be going to local charities. This was accomplished by going to crowd funding to sponsor the tour, using pledgemusic.com and

with the amount of money raised the band could plan as many stops as possible within that budget. With the tour funded, that means all of the proceeds can go to a good cause, with a focus on local charities. In Yorkton,

YAIL Harbor and their Pathway Homes Project will see the benefits of the Yorkton show. “We wanted this tour to be not a typical music tour. We wanted to do something that was meaningful and not forgettable. We thought this would be an interesting way to sup-port charities and people we have had a lot of respect for and want to help out. On the same token, we can tour and meet a lot of new people, so it was a win-win situation. We’ve met a lot of amazing people so far and the journey continues.” Hines lives with a condition called Larsen’s Syndrome, but he says that he wanted to go beyond organiza-tions he could relate to, because it’s important to recognize everyone’s challenges, whether external like his own, or more internal. “I can relate to physical challenges, that’s a big part of my life. I’ve been in a wheelchair since birth, so my road has been a little different. By the same token, I don’t look at myself as different or unique, we all have our stuff, mine’s a little more visible, but it’s relative.” The tour is going until the middle of October, and Hines says that they have been amazed by the amount of support they have received for the project. “It’s been a long journey, which means that we have accomplished a lot of our goals. We still want to keep going.” The show will be at Sacred Heart High School at 7:00 p.m. on September 10. Tickets are $20, and available at YAIL Harbor at 115 Darlington St. E., Hearn’s Westview Pharmacy at 265 Bradbrooke Dr., Louck’s Medi-Health Pharmacy at 115-41 Broadway St. W. and LR Future Insurance and Investments, at 7 Broadway St. W.

It has been another busy summer at Good Spirit Acres. The golf course has been in great shape and pretty busy most days… especially on weekends. The playground, shuffle-board game and camp kitchen at Spilchen Meadows was also used a lot. We are so happy to see that children and families enjoy it. Thanks to volun-teers and Barry Bradshaw for keeping the grass cut and park neat. The RM of Good Lake celebrated it’s 100th anni-versary in July at Good Spirit Acres with a steak BBQ and great entertain-ment by Brad Johner and family. It was a great day with the weather man cooperating with a sunny day. A centennial history book was unveiled and presented to former RM counsellors and Reeves and is available for sale at the RM office in Canora. The anniversary celebra-tion was one of the final tasks for RM administra-tor Grant Doupe, who has taken a job at an RM in Foam Lake. Farewell Grant, good luck! The new administrator is Joan Popoff, and her assistant administrator, Deidre Bilyk. The cabin owners “Toilet Seat Tournament” is booked for Sun. Sept. 15. It is nine holes of Texas scramble golf starting at 1 PM and followed by a pot luck supper at the camp kitchen at Spilchen Meadows. Come join the fun!

The GSA Hamlet Annual Meeting will be on Saturday, October 5, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. at the Good Spirit Golf Hall. This is an important meeting as the Community will need to select a new Board mem-ber after the resignation of Jim Rediger who has accepted a position with a Credit Union in Brandon, Manitoba. At this time the current Board members, John McDonald and Don Thompson, along with our community members want to thank Jim for his ser-vice and leadership as the Chairman of the Board. The Nominating Committee, Bill Cripps and Norm Lawrence, are seeking out potential can-didates for the vacant Board position. If you are interested in being a can-didate for this position, please feel free to contact the Nominating Committee or either of the Board members who will get you the proper nomination papers. The first deadline for nominations is Sept. 14, 2013 at 12 noon. If no candidate has filed then the deadline will be extended until Sept. 21, 2013 at 12 noon. Also on Saturday, Oct.5 there will be a Community Association fund raising steak or chicken supper at Tapps in Yorkton from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. All execu-tive members will be sell-ing tickets for this supper for $20.00 each. July 27 , 2013 marked the 7th annual Sandie

Cripps Memorial Golf Tournament, held at the Good Spirit Lake Golf and Family Resort an area. Good Spirit is a one of Saskatchewan gems and for those of us who know the area and people well will understand why Sandie held this location dear for many years. Community involvement and volunteerism is alive and well in this little ham-let as evidenced by the number of volunteers and donations that supported the tournament. Your participation contributed to the success of the day! Forty golfers took to the fairways and raised $6,985 in support of breast cancer research in Saskatchewan. It is important to note that 100 per cent of all funds raised by this tournament will remain in the prov-ince. This total was achieved, in part, through your generous support of this very worthwhile cause. The winners of the tour-nament were Randal Cripps, Arlene Cripps, Ashley Crane and Ehryn Crane. Once again, thank you for your support. The Good Spirit Market had a busy summer selling everything from ice cream to lottery tickets, grocer-ies, frozen foods, liquor, to gasoline and propane. Fall hours – 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. – are now in effect. Congratulations to Brent and Gladys Moore who just celebrated 50 years of wedded bliss!

Here's how it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fi ll each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can fi gure out the order in which the numbers will appear by us-ing the numeric clues already provid-ed in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

YRHS JR. RAIDERS quarterback Nick Payne receives a snap during their Week Three loss to the Regina Stampeders at Century Field. For more Yorkton Minor Football coverage go to Page 14.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

The Yorkton Regional High School Jr. Raiders were coming into their Week Three match up in the Regina Minor Football League’s Bantam divi-sion coming off their fi rst win of 2013 on the road the Jr. Orange were rid-ing high off of their 44-32 win over the Sun Devils, but were to be challenged by a Stampeders team that featured a running back/fullback tandem that was very physically imposing for Jr. football. That rushing tandem seemed to be all that the Regina visitors needed on Saturday afternoon as despite a val-iant effort it seemed as the Stampeders rolled up the long distance touchdown runs early and often in the fi rst half despite the Raiders attempts to bring down the much larger Stamps backs. Despite the demoralizing physical dominance of the Stampeders rushing attack, Yorkton refused to give up at any point of their Sunday affair with the Raiders offense managing to put up two scores in the fi rst half to keep things in reach as the fi rst half came to an end with Yorkton down just three scores as the Stampeders led 30-12. In the second half Yorkton’s defence would step up considerably, Carter Pawliw would snag one of two YRHS interceptions in the second half as things started to improve on both sides of the ball as the game wore on. Rhythm on the offence would be an is-sue as injuries crept into play with the Orange having to employ an offensive linemen as a wideout on Sunday with their roster depth giving them a chal-lenge. Still there was no quit in the Raid-ers no matter how many points the Stampeders put onto the board, with the young players on both sides of the ball making plays despite not putting as many points on the board as needed in the game. In the fourth quarter the Raiders of-fense improved to close out the game with Nick Payne leading the Jr. Raid-ers into the red zone, scoring on the fi -nal drive of the game with a touchdown connection to end Yorkton’s weekend on a high note.

Jr. Raiders drop second straight

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer If you have been waiting for Junior hockey to start the wait if offi cially over. With the fi rst month of Sep-tember upon us the SJHL preseason is offi cially un-derway and the Yorkton Terriers open their 2012/13

SJHL title defence with the start of their preseason schedule with a midweek road trip to play the Manito-ba Junior Hockey League’s Waywayseecapo Wolverines before opening the Farrell Agencies Arena’s hockey calendar on Friday night against the MJHL’s Swan Valley Stampeders.

The Terriers hosted their fall camp over the Labour Day weekend, but their annual Orange-Black In-trasquad game was sadly cancelled due to Monday’s power outage on Broadway creating poor ice conditions. The lack of an Orange-Black game will make the Terriers game against the

Wolverines the fi rst hard look head coach Trent Cas-san will have of his Terriers outside of training camp as the defending league cham-pions take to the ice with many new hopefuls looking to be apart of a team that will be expecting to win.

With the start of the school year Yorkton is in need of volleyball offi-cials for the 2013/14 year. “We have a good number of veteran officials, but it is often not enough to keep up with the demand of having a handful of high school teams at each level of vol-leyball at Sacred Heart and the YRHS combined with elementary school play so we are in need of more offi-cials in the city,” explains local ref Don Pfiefer. With the crunch for more bodies to keep local volleyball thriving in Yorkton and maintaining well offici-ated matches throughout the area, there will be three Saskatchewan Volleyball Association clinics across

the Parkland area in September with the aim to grow another solid base of officials in the East Central Saskatchewan area. Pfiefer explains that officiating vol-leyball can be a nice supplement to one’s income at the same time as vol-unteering an invaluable service to the community. “We need officials to keep a thriving volleyball community in Yorkton running smoothly through-out the high school, elementary and club volleyball seasons at with so many games there is plenty of oppor-tunity to work matches during the week and at various weekend tourna-ments throughout the fall.” The clinic will be free of charge and held at the YRHS September 9 at 7:00 p.m.

Cont from Page 13.

In the end it would be a 52-19 win for the Stampeders, but for the Jr. Raiders coaching staff the game was a sign that the team was headed in the right direction. “I think that we showed a lot of prom-ise in our own game against a team that is probably the best team in our league and I think that given our injuries that all of us are pretty happy with the effort we put onto the football field today,” Jr. Raider coach Jason Payne stated after the game. Payne pointed out that the Jr. Raiders were dealing with a handful of injuries on Saturday, something that presented a chal-lenge. “We were teach-

ing a lot of guys on the fly, including putting an offensive line played as a wide receiver and in the Regina Minor Football League pre-venting players from playing both offense and defense you can’t just plug guys in both ways so when guys go down it really challeng-es a team.” In other Yorkton Minor Football action the Atom Gridders defeated the Regina Allouettes 33-19 to improve to 3-0 on the season in the 2013 RMF Atom football division. The result had Atom Gridders coach Jason Boyda beaming about his young ballplayers for the third consecu-tive week. “We are starting to see that our players are hungry to play football and bring

a full effort to each game that we play and every minute that they are on the field they are playing with passion and wanting to play football and play it the right way which is huge.” Boyda also stated that while winning is impor-tant in developing a team, fun is the main focus. “We like to win because winning is ulti-mately one of the fun-nest things about sports and you can see it when the kids make a big play or win a big game, but we also make sure every day to remind the play-ers that at the end of the day it is about hav-ing fun,” says Boyda who mentions that the team has a fun activity practice once a week. YMF teams are on the road next weekend.

Jr. Raiders impress coaches, Atom Gridders stay undefeated

LUKAS MUIR chips in on dishing out some punishment on the Stampeders quarter-back in the second half of the Jr. Raiders loss to the Regina Stampeders Saturday. Despite dealing with depth issues due to injuries, the Raiders gave the Stampeders everything they could handle making several impressive second half plays.

SJHL drops puck on 2013/14 preseason schedule across the league Cont. from Page 13.

Yorkton will also host two more exhibition games after Friday’s home opener, playing the Melville Millionaires and the Wolverines at the Farrell Agencies Arena as part of a six game preseason calendar before the puck is dropped on the 2013/14 SJHL season late this month. Trent Cassan will also be without the services of sev-eral 2012/13 Terriers as they attempt to make WHL rosters during the Western league’s preseason. The most notable of those players being goaltender Dawson MacAuley who has a solid shot at cracking the Regina Pats roster after the team acquired his rights from the Calgary Hitmen during the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft. Cassan will likely be exploring other options in goal behind Yorkton product Kale Thomson as a contingency plan over the course of September.

Yorkton looking for volleyball refs


13091SS00

My rapid fi re take on all (most) 32 teams ahead of this weekend’s start to the NFL season: NFC EastNew York Giants: The G-Men look like an afterthought after a disappointing 2012, but as we have found out before you shouldn’t count out the two time Super Bowl champs of the 00’s. Philadelphia Eagles: New coach in Chip Kelly, likely no playoffs. Dallas Cowboys: Like the Giants, the Cowboys are hit and missWashington Redskins: With RGIII at QB, the Redskins should easily win the East this year. NFC WestSeattle Seahawks: Couldn’t fi nd a way past the 49ers last season, expect them to be hungrier in 2013. Arizona Cardinals: Rookie Tyran Mathieu might be the early Rookie of the Year candidate in the NFC. St. Louis Rams: A sleeper team like the Cards out West, but Seattle/San Fran look too good. Wild Card is possible. San Francisco 49ers: It is a toss up between last year’s NFC Champs and the Seahawks in this division, but both are contenders for the Super Bowl. NFC SouthCarolina Panthers: Cam Newton and Steve Smith have enough offensive fi repower to turn some heads. Atlanta Falcons: Tony Gonzalez return for another sea-son and more fi repower have the Falcons as my NFC favorite.

New Orleans Saints: Will be better than last season now that Sean Payton’s suspension is lifted, the ques-tion is how good will they be.Tampa Bay Bucs: Getting there, but not quite yet. NFC North Green Bay Packers: Favorite to win the division every year, but this is the best division in football, something that often keeps them from the Super Bowl. Chicago Bears: Contenders in any other division, a Wild Card team if they can beat on non-North teams. Minnesota Vikings: Adrian Peterson is all the purple need to make the playoffs again likely. Detroit Lions: Burning question: Will Detroit ever be able to put together their group of promising talent? Adding Reggie Bush could get them there.

AFC EastNew England Patriots: The fact that I am skipping the rest of the teams in this division show how one sided the AFC East has been in the 00’s. Expect it to be again, even without Aaron Hernandez. AFC North Pittsburgh Steelers: You can’t count them out, but the Steelers are getting old fast. A dropoff year perhaps. Baltimore Ravens: An exodus after winning the Super Bowl has been addressed and Joe Flacco got paid. They will be back. Cincinnati Bengals: Outside of the Ravens, the Ben-gals impressive defense has them as AFC North con-tenders. Cleveland Browns: They are the Cleveland BrownsAFC SouthTennessee Titans: Chris Johnson will need to get back in 2, 000 rushing yard form if the Titans want the play-offs. Indianapolis Colts: Another year for Andrew Luck should be an improvement for the Colts. Houston Texans: Division favorites and Super Bowl contenders should they stay healthy. AFC WestDenver Broncos: Peyton Manning’s team will go as far as his ever fading arm takes them. Thankfully the AFC West stinks. Super Bowl Prediction: Falcons over Texans

Rapid fi re rants: 2013 NFL Season Preview edition

Kory Sheets and the Riders both historic heading into Labour DayBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer It may have taken lon-ger than expected on Sun-day, but eventually the Saskatchewan Roughrid-ers did what they were ex-pected to do and beat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 48-25 in a game that at one point was a lot closer than the scoreline indi-cates. After one half of foot-ball it was Winnipeg that somehow found them-selves in the drivers seat, thanks largely in part of the Riders newfound pen-chant for starting off

games slowly. A sputter-ing offence and a leaky secondary resulted in the Blue Bombers getting their way just enough to leave the first half with an 18-14 lead, a result that nobody saw coming. In the second half the Blue Bombers kept giving the full effort that they brought out to start the game, but it didn’t matter as the Riders stepped on the gas and showed their rivals there would be no upsets. Kory Sheets opened up the scoring with a touchdown run (his second of the game) to get the ball rolling and give

the Riders a lead they wouldn’t relinquish for the rest of the second half. A Goltz 46 yard scramble would be the Bombers only success in putting points on the board as the second half turned out to be all Riders, all the time. In the fourth quarter Taj Smith wrapped up the game, catching touch-downs on two very similar red zone slant routes. Taj had seven catches for 89 yards and two touchdowns on the day with those two touchdowns sealing the Labour Day win, but he still wasn’t biggest story

in the Riders receiving group. The game’s most pleas-ant surprise was the return of Geroy Simon as a gamebreaking receiver. The CFL’s most prolific receiver caught two touch-downs on Sunday, step-ping his game up for the Labour Day Classic with a performance that won’t be forgotten. Simon hauled in two touchdowns to put the cherry on top, inching closer to Ben Cahoon’s all-time recep-tion record. For now “Geroooooy” is sitting 11 back of the all-time record, a number that the man

who has caught at least one reception in 179 con-secutive games should break by the end of the season. Darian Durant, was a strong 24-35 for 310 yards, and four td’s. He also had three carries for 34 yards, showing how big the Labour Day Classic game means to him by testing out his ankle that has been bothering him by scrambling out of the pocket. Expect Durant to bring his best again for the Banjo Bowl. Next up for the Riders is the rematch, the first Banjo Bowl at Winnipeg’s

new stadium before the Riders play host to the Argos and Lions. Despite being 8-1 the Riders still have the Stamps and Lions hot on their tails for first place in the West and home field advantage in the West Final, if they want to make the first half of their season count for something they will have to keep winning as the dominating West just keeps on rolling each week. It starts all over again in Winnipeg on Sunday where you can expect the Riders to make it 9-1 as they get closer to the 2013 Grey Cup

Yorkton Martial Arts Training Center sent a pair of athletes to the WOMAA Open World Martial Arts Championships last month, seeing both athletes achieve new heights in their young martial arts careers. In August Gracynn Gurniak-Hudy and Colton LaBelle competed in Dublin, Ireland with Team Canada on the world stage, a once in a lifetime even that was achieved through hard work and dedication saw the two young pupils of the YMATC overseas to represent their country.

Tournament days were long, start-

ing at 9:00 a.m. and lasting until 10:00 p.m. on each of the three days filled with competition and cheering on the rest of their team. The two also gave their Team Can-ada members something to cheer about, securing a handful of medals for Canada and the YMATC. Gracynn competed in five events earning three silver medals in her point sparring, musical forms and continuous sparring events, failing to win gold yet leaving Ireland with a more than satisfactory haul of three medals at the international competi-tion. Colton competed in two events and took silver in continuous sparring

and won the gold in his point spar-ring division to take home two med-als at the tournament. Mike Forster commented that the pair of students have “Both have overcome their own adversities and have proven that hard work and dedication pay off.” Colton and Gracynn would like to thank the numerous sponsors in the bottle drives, steak night, raffle draw, garage sales, and generous donations that helped get them to Ireland as well as their friends, fam-ily and coaches for the tremendous support, encouragement and extra training on the path to success. The experience of the world tour-nament and touring Ireland after-

ward will be one that they won’t soon forget and meeting new martial arts friends from Canada and around the world is driving them to continue their journey towards black belt, more local tournaments and hopeful-ly another world championship trip in the future according to YMATC’s instructor Mike Forster. After impressing on the world stage for their country at an interna-tional martial arts event the future is high for two of Yorkton’s young martial arts pupils, showing that there is opportunity for the martial arts community to grow in the city, opportunity that stretches beyond Canada’s borders.

chance to prove it!

CONTEST RULES• The contest is open to everyone except employees of The News

Review and their immediate families.• A minimum total of $25.00 cash will be given to the contestant who

picks all the correct winners. In case of ties, the person who guesses closest to the Sunday night game point total of both teams wins! If still a tie, money will be split. In cases of no prize winner, prize money will carry over to the following week. If there is no winner during the 17 week promotion, the final week will be worth $425.00 and, the person with the most wins during the final week will win all the money. In case of tie, same tie-breaker rules apply.

• Decision of judges is final and all entries become the property of The News Review.

• All entrants must use the official blank entry form on this page. All games will be listed on this page.

• You must write down the name of the advertiser in the appropriate box, not the team’s name. Team names will be found in the ads on this page.

• Entries must arrive at The News Review office before 4:00 p.m. Friday, September 6, 2013.
