JUNE 2014
Serving the Communities of Asquith, Delisle, Grandora, Harris, Pike Lake, Vanscoy
Mayor of Vanscoy Resigns
At the recent May 11,
2014 council meeting,
the Village of Vanscoy
accepted the resignation of
Mayor Jerome Robert.
Jerome has been a long time
resident of the village and has
served many terms on council.
He was first elected as a coun-
cillor in 1981, and became
Mayor for the first time in
1998. He eventually resigned
from the position in 2001.
After living in Saskatoon for
a few years, Jerome move back
to Vanscoy and eventually re-
turned to council in 2008, tak-
ing over as Mayor in 2009 and
has served in that position until
his recent resignation which is
effective June 11, 2014.
Vanscoy Village Council has
completed many key projects
during the years Jerome has
been serving, including a new
water treatment plant back in
2000, followed years later with
an upgrade to the sewage
lagoons. Recently the Village
has also been able to develop a
new residential neighborhood
with plans to expand it.
“I remember the first ball game
that I played in Vanscoy was in
1957 ”, says Robert, “and I
wouldn’t have imagined then,
that I would have spent the
time on council that I have”.
His resignation will trigger a
by-election in the Village which
is slated to be held this coming
September.
Asquith Fire Department & First RespondersThankful for Sponsors Support of
Pig Roast Supper & Auction Fundraiser
The Asquith Fire Department, in conjunc-
tion with the Asquith First Responders,
hosted their second Pig Roast Supper and
Auction on April 12, 2014. The fundraising event
was held at the Twilight Hall and featured a
beautifully prepared roast pig for supper fol-
lowed by a live auction.
Auction items, as well as monetary donations,
were contributed by local (and not so local) busi-
nesses, organizations, groups and people. The re-
sponse from our sponsors in support of the
Asquith Fire Department/Asquith First Respon-
der’s fundraising initiatives was, and always has
been, overwhelming and humbling. The men and
women of the Asquith Fire Department and the
Asquith First Responders are very appreciative
of the support shown towards our organizations
and would like to take this time to extend a very
heartfelt thank you to all of the sponsors.
With the help of so many willing sponsors, the
evening was an unprecedented success and will
help our organizations in their efforts to pur-
chase some of the rescue equipment identified as
a priority by our groups.
The list of priority rescue equipment is pro-
vided to inform the public of the costs associated
with emergency response provided by fire de-
partments/first responders.
If you, or your organization, would be inter-
ested in sponsoring any of the tools identified in
our equipment list please contact the Asquith
Town Office at 306-329-4770.

Editorial
“Father’s Day Wish ”
In recent years I have found it harder to survive each coming winter, but
no surprise I guess, as I am now zooming into my fifties. But now I also
find that surviving the coming summers is starting to get harder as well.
Though I am turning 53 this summer, I am blessed with a young 14 year
old son that has been pulling me into all sorts of summer fun activities this
year. These are all things I have always like doing, but since my thirties I
have not done as many, and certainly not as much of them, but I eagerly
jumped at the chance for some father-son bonding this summer.
So during the past winter months I have been booking campsites & tee times,
buying boat, fishing & trailer licenses and first thing this spring I bought a
bike rack, canoe, paddles, life jackets, fishing tackle, golf balls and many other
things to get us set-up for the best summer ever !!
But before we head out on these many planned adventures, I should try all
these new things out by going on a nice short 2 night camping / fishing / golf-
ing trip to Riverhurst. So I spent a few days cleaning the camper, installing
the new bike rack and testing how the new canoe loaded to make sure every-
thing would fit and work as planned. It all looked good... so I unloaded it all.
A week later I loaded it all back up and headed out. Once there I again
unloaded the canoe, bikes, clubs, etc... then I set-up the tent camper again !
Exhausted, I slept like a baby that night, and the next morning embarked on
18 holes of golf. Exhausted, I returned to the campsite where our good friends
cooked us a bbq steak dinner, after which I promptly slept like a baby again.
The next morning I again loaded up the club, canoe, bikes and camper and
drove over to Elbow to go fishing, where I again unloaded the canoe, paddles
and life jackets and dragged it all to the water. Exhausted, I sat in the canoe,
gently floating, thinking of how nice a nap would be. The fishing was short
lived, the paddling was extensive, and once back to shore... I loaded it all up
yet again.
We arrived home late that afternoon. Exhausted, I fell onto the couch, and
promptly slept like a baby till morning. It has now been a week and I have yet
to do the final unloading from that trip !
By the way son, I know what I want for Father’s Day this year... a long nap !

The John Arcand Fiddle Fest, located 7
km southwest of Saskatoon, is in its
seventeenth year! The Fest prides it-
self on a history of quality music and dance
entertainment, as the home of Western
Canada’s premiere fiddle contest, and its ex-
pansive music and arts workshops. Offered
over 4 days, the Fest is an affordable experi-
ence designed with family fun in mind.
The entertainment is non-stop under the
festival’s main stage, the Roof, with music
and dance features that run from noon to
midnight. Day time features a series of short
performances from Saskatchewan’s up and
coming talent and the Fiddle Contest, while
in the evening accomplished fiddle players
and dancers convene on our stage for unfor-
gettable displays of mastery. To close out
the night, audiences are invited to flood the
dance floor for an old-time dance.
Workshops, workshops and more work-
shops! There are over 100 workshops on
offer at the Fest, and they are all free with
gate admission! The Established Workshop
series presents engaging education at all
skill levels in fiddle, guitar, jigging and
square dance. Whether you are an absolute
beginner without a fiddle or a seasoned gui-
tar player, we’ve got a workshop for you!
Our other workshop series, the Cultural
Camp, is a celebration of Métis arts that
offer interactive workshops in beading, fin-
ger weaving, traditional dance, and story-
telling.
There are plenty of opportunities for kid-
friendly fun too. The Children’s Activity
Area is open all day and provides work-
shops, games, and crafts to keep the little
ones entertained. Children are also welcome
to join the Cultural Camp during our “Kids
Can Bead” sessions.
It’s easy to get to the Fest. We’re located
just 7 km southwest of Saskatoon. There’s
plenty of parking onsite or you can take ad-
vantage of our free Shuttle Service that has
4 pick-up and drop-off points in Saskatoon.
The Shuttle Service schedule is available on
our website under the “info” tab. For Festers
coming from farther afield, we provide free
un-serviced camping or they can take advan-
tage of the fine accommodations at our spon-
sor hotel, The Heritage Inn – book early for
the Fest special. There’s plenty of ground to
trod onsite, so to ease the distance between
the main stage and campground we’ve got
the People Mover – another free shuttle
service to get you from point A to B.
From August 7-10, 2014, we’ve got your
summer plans covered! Admission is $25.00
per day or only $60.00 for the entire festival!
Tickets are sold at the gate only. Children
12 & under are admitted free with a parent
or guardian.

SCHOOL REPORTS
VANSCOY SCHOOL
Another month has come and gone and it’s already June! Yes, the end of the
school year has come once again and summer is right around the corner.
With summer comes warm weather, which I know everyone is extremely ex-
cited for!
We apologize for not putting this in sooner but we would like to congratulate
everyone who participated in Heritage Fair. Provincials will be held in June
and we wish you the best of luck. The winners were: Rhys Murphy, Connor
Justus, Meagan Kielo (moving on to Provincials), Real Landry, Jerzy Or-
chard, Ryan Olson, and Miaya Middleton.
A new set of intramurals have begun in the gymnasium and we encourage
everyone to come out and support our floor hockey teams! As well, track and
field is well under way and we would like to congratulate everyone who has
competed, you have made our school proud!
There will be no spirit days this month but there’s more to come next year!
June also holds the annual Colour Night on June 11, and we look forward to
seeing everyone there.
As this is the last month of the school year, on behalf of the SRC, I would
like to say congratulations to the class of 2014 and we hope you all succeed
in your plans for after high school! You all have had some of the best teach-
ers to guide your way to adulthood and you all have every chance for suc-
cess. Remember, in order to succeed your desire for success must be greater
than your fear of failure.
As we look forward to next year, we would like to invite students and par-
ents to our welcome back BBQ that will be held on September 4. This has
been an annual event held at the Elementary School and we will be joining
with them in the fall. Please watch for further details in June.
Delisle Composite SRC
Hope everyone is excited for the last month of
school! We have had many exciting events in
May. Congratulations to the Grade 8 class who
competed in the boat race at SIAST on May 16th.
Good job Jonah, Remington, Tanner, and Josh for
getting the first place medal. We all had a very
fun time. Also congratulations to the people that
went to the track and field meet on May 21st. We
had 13 people qualify for the district meet. We
welcome the PSW Senior and Jazz Band on June
2nd who be preforming at the school. If you don't
know already, Vanscoy has started an outdoor ed.
Class and we have begun construction of an out-
door classroom. It's been a great year at Vanscoy.
We hope everyone has a good rest of spring and
summer and good luck to the grade 8's next year
in high school.
By Jonah Krahn
PIKE LAKE PRESCHOOL
We are in the final month of preschool. I know I say this every year, but I
can't believe the end of another year is here! May has been such a different
and fun month. We have had a few extra-long days to make up for the time
I was away in the winter and we've been able to spend a lot of time out-
doors. Both groups of students have handled these days quite well, al-
though quite differently!
The 3-year olds started off the month making play-dough. We then made
some pot-pourie wreaths for Mother's Day and a caterpillar out of 9 circles
for Number 9 Day. We also tried purple footprint unicorns for Purple Day,
although some of the kids didn't want their feet painted.
The 4-year olds started off their month with a visit from some baby chicks.
The students loved holding and petting the chicks and then made a hand-
print and footprint chick to go with the theme. These students also made
pot-pourie wreaths for Mother's Day. We started a safety theme and
learned how to be safe in our homes and on the farm, as well as what to do
in case of a fire. I am also hoping to get a police officer to the school to teach
us more safety. The 4-year olds had a lot of fun with bubbles one day, made
pizza another day, and made some interesting-looking purple footprint uni-
corns on Purple Day. They also spent some time in the Kindergarten class-
room playing and they planted grass seed in egg cups with the
Kindergartens, grade ones and twos.
June, of course, brings us to our last month. We will be learning about the
colour blue and the number 10, as well as continuing to practice our gradua-
tion songs. Graduation will be on Tuesday, June 17th at 10am downstairs
in the hall.
We had our registration last week and the numbers look good for next year -
7 4-year olds and 5 3-year olds. If you have a child who will be 3 or 4 by De-
cember 31st, 2014 and toilet-trained, please call Wendy Schoonbaert at 306-
978-8164 to register your child for preschool.
Have a wonderful and warm June!
3-year old days: 5, 12, 17
4-year old days: 3, 6, 10, 13, 17
Colour: blue
Number: 10
Nicer temperatures have arrived and Pike Lake School has been taking
every chance we can get to go outside and enjoy nature. Our school has
taken on the 30 X 30 nature challenge where we have attempted to spend
thirty minutes outside learning for all of the 30 days in May. As usual the
beautiful area of Pike Lake has allowed for many rewarding educational ex-
periences. Recently, all Pike Lake students had the chance to walk down to
the Pike Lake Provincial Park to take part in a naturalist afternoon, which
included the opportunity to do some pond dipping. A great time as well al
lot of learning was experienced by all.
A big thank you to everyone who came out for our Math Night on Thursday,
May 1st. The evening was a good opportunity for parents to learn and take
part in understanding the way we our teaching our students math. The
night was focused on highlighting the benefits of our math program as well
as supporting parents to feel more confident when helping their children at
home with math. Thank you to the SCC for providing the funding to feed
our guests.

OASIS GOLF RESORT
The backdrop for The Oasis is the eastern slopes
of the Bear Hills. It gives way to the great out-
wash prairie and paints a unique backdrop. To
the west is the rugged terrain of the hills, to the
east, the flat of the great Saskatchewan prairie
carved by Lake Van Scoy that is home to thou-
sands of Canada Geese the odd Whooping Crane
and Bald Eagles during the fall and spring migra-
tion. The south view is flanked by CPR tracks
that wind through the ever-changing panorama of
the Canadian prairie and now, to the north is the
expanse of the golf course itself. Situated on a
hill, the clubhouse sits like a grand beacon sur-
veying the grandeur in all directions. All this
splendor can be found a short 33-minute drive
west of Saskatoon on Highway 14.
The Oasis golf course has been built by the de-
signer, Glen Campbell. The course features mas-
sive bent grass greens (some are over 17,600 FT)
and tees, six water hazards and one of
Saskatchewan's largest sand bunkers. The course
is a playable par 72 6,943 yards from the black
tees, 6,373 yards from the
gold tees and 5,887 yard
blue tree and 5209 from
the white tees.
The avid golfer will enjoy
the challenge of The Oasis
and the weekend warriors
will love it! This is a serene
course, a place to get away
from it all. The Oasis offers
a challenging 18-hole
course, and an environment
to cater to your every need.
It has a fully-stocked pro
shop. The restaurant,
Jim's on 14, promises
meals to excite your
palate and its licensed
2,200 square foot terrace
offers an unparalleled
view overlooking the
course and the ever-
changing prairie sky.
A mere hundred years
ago on this land, the buf-
falo roamed at will. Abo-
riginals called the hills
home, raised families
and worshipped their
god with medicine
wheels, still in evidence,
just to the west, in the
shortgrass prairie which
covers the hills. As the
railroads pushed west,
the first of the settlers
arrived. The Scharf fam-
ily was one of the original eastern families to set-
tle in the area. Jim Scharf was the third genera-
tion to care for the land and help develop the
community that became Perdue.
Jim, like his grandfather and father before
him, was an active promoter of Perdue. He was a
firm believer in rural revitalization and looking at
value-added use of the land. He had already lo-
cated a successful business in the village, but
could see his community literally shrinking
around him. The area needed a boost.
Jim's passing left a void. But we are dedicated to
fulfill his vision of a one of a kind facility where
golf and nature come together.
VALLEYVIEW DELISLE
GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB
A well maintained, quality 9-hole course offering
irrigated greens and fairways. Situated along a
creek bed, the natural terrain makes the course
scenic and interesting to play.
Combined with the serene and relaxed atmos-
phere, amenities include green fees and member-
ships that are easy on the pocketbook, 25
powercart rentals and a liquor endorsement. Val-
leyview is an ideal place to host company func-
tions and family reunions, with banquets
facilitated through local caterers.
Experience first-hand a course that has quickly
become recognized as a great place to enjoy the
game of golf.

PIKE LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK
Pike Lake Provincial Park is 20 minutes from Saska-
toon and a million miles from the city.
Pike Lake is a recreation park characterized by
aspen, poplar and Manitoba maple groves; mani-
cured lawns with two picnic areas close to the main
beach; desert-like sand dunes a short hike away and
a popular outdoor pool with a waterslide. Add to
this a diverse array of plants and wildlife owing to
its location on a flood plain of the South
Saskatchewan River and you can see why Pike Lake
Provincial Park offers a delightful change of pace for
people wishing to recharge their batteries without
having to travel for hours.
Pike Lake is a shallow body of water that's called
an "oxbow" - it's a loop of the South Saskatchewan
River that became cut off from the main channel. A
barrier-free trail that starts at the main beach and
runs southward to the creek that feeds the lake in-
cludes observation decks that provide a good view of
the aquatic life and waterfowl in the vicinity. A 1.5-
km nature trail that begins at the interpretive cen-
tre, meanwhile, provides a fine opportunity to
experience the surprisingly diverse ecosystems con-
tained within this small park.
EAGLE CREEK REGIONAL PARK
Eagle Creek Regional Park is located on the pictur-
esque Eagle Creek, nestled down in a verdant valley
of trees and foliage. The park is a jewel in the crown
of the surrounding area, and offers year round fun
for the whole family. The park has electrified and
non-electrified sites, a church and a hall for wed-
dings and anniversaries, a nine-hole golf course, a
water spray park, playground equipment, a new
washroom/shower house and a new floating dock for
swimmers. Beach volleyball can also be enjoyed at
the park. A riding arena is also available, and bull
riding and trail rides have been held in the past.

Robins Nest Cafe has long been a fixture in the
community. Owners Quinten and Robin Odnokon
have built a reputation for quality meals and
friendly service over many years. The many an-
tiques that adorn this cozy restaurant almost
take a back seat to the wealth of Saskatchewan
Roughrider paraphernalia, and some days you
might run into Quinten and hear some of his
many tales of his favorite team.
They are also well known, both inside and outside
the local community, for thier exceptional cater-
ing. Professionalism and attention to detail have
made them the largest caterer for miles around.
For a sit down or take-out meal, 7 days a week, or
catering for 100 people, the Robin’s Nest is well
worth a stop.
ASQUITH
The Britannia Restaurant has taken it home of
Asquith, “The Centre of the British Empire”, seri-
ously, and has become well known for their
British Style Fish & Chips made in beer batter.
The have gained a reputation for their pizzas and
offer a complete menu of full course meals.
The Vault Restaurant resides in a former bank,
where you can still see the giant steel vault door
on display. They serve an extensive menu of au-
thentic Vietnamese cuisine that rivals any other
Vietnamese restaurant. A real gem in the commu-
nity.
DELISLE
If your need to cool down in Delisle, stop in to the
Ice Cream Island where you will find 16
flavours of hard ice crean, 15 kinds of milkshakes,
twisters, sundaes and many other cool treats. You
can also get fresh salads or chose from burgers,
wings, ribs and much more on the hot food menu.
If a home cooked sit-down meal is what you are
looking for, try the Homestead Restaurant.
Fresh, quality ingredients and ample portions are
sure to satisfy your hunger. Authentic German
cuisine “Like Grandma Cooked” is the specialty of
the Homestead. Enjoy home made meals like
Bratwurst or Schnitzel, as well a traditional
North American fare. They are open for break-
fast, lunch and supper
The Delisle Hotel Cafe has recently added
‘Asian food by Alma’ to the menu. Served every
Friday, Alma’s authentic creations are made
fresh on site and are available as single dishes or
combo plates to eat in or take out.

AGRICULTURE REPORTS
The technology
that is currently
available to pro-
ducers has never been
more sophisticated. In
the past 2 decades we
have gone from yield
monitors on combines
with no GPS capability
to fully integrated sys-
tems on seeding, spray-
ing and harvesting
equipment that can
record rates and link to
exact locations in the
field. This can now be
used to record rates of
applied products as well
as the resulting har-
vested yields. This ca-
pability creates
information that can be
of greater value in
terms of future farm
business management
decisions.
The amount of data
available now is ex-
tremely large, so collec-
tion and management of
the data has now be-
come a specialized skill
with the collection often
being done wirelessly to
a service provider. As
we move down this path
producers may wish to
ask questions along the
lines of who owns the
data, privacy of data
and is it movable should
you wish to change
service providers.
Data has no value un-
less it is used in such a
way that it assists in
changing actions that
ultimately result in in-
creased productivity, ef-
ficiency, profitability or
assists in management
of risk. This involves a
process of collecting
data and analyzing the
data into information
that you can then use to
make decisions. As a
result producers should
be thinking about what
data is important to
them and how they
wish to use the data to
change practices.
Individual producers
will have access to large
amounts of data from
their farm alone, but
there may be real oppor-
tunities to change prac-
tices more rapidly with
others that are using
similar practices. As an
example a producer
testing a seed variety
will see how it works on
their farm by using
their own data. How-
ever a number of pro-
ducers with the same
test can learn more
about how it performs
under different environ-
mental conditions and
management by sharing
the information. This
may be an activity that
requires some organiza-
tion among peers and
can be done through a
service provider or other
external party. Again
privacy and control of
the information may be
part of the discussion at
the outset of such activi-
ties.
Data collection and
management decisions
based on this informa-
tion is just starting to
be adopted. Look for
things to change rapidly
in the next couple of
years. Maybe you wish
to be involved in some
sort of organization that
facilitates sharing of
data? The first step is
to talk with some of the
people that are provid-
ing data management
services and see if it has
potential on your farm.
As seeding pro-
gresses, it is im-
portant to keep
in mind that several in-
sect pests could pose a
threat to canola produc-
tion in the Western
Provinces. For instance,
flea beetles overwinter
as adults and are one of
the first insects to move
into an emerging canola
field. Keeping this in
mind, it could be benefi-
cial to use an insecti-
cide/fungicide seed
treatment combination.
Late seeding can some-
times increase the risks
of insect damage occur-
ring in canola fields.
Since seeding is occur-
ring a little later this
year, other practices can
be used for protection
against insect pests
such as increasing the
seeding rates or direct
seeding into stubble.
The most important
step for defense is to
scout the fields through-
out the season espe-
cially during the
seedling stages. For ex-
ample, the action
threshold for flea bee-
tles on canola is 25% of
cotyledon leaf area con-
sumed. The traditional
symptoms of flea beetle
damage in canola in-
clude shot-hole feeding
and girdling of young
stems. The pinched-like
symptom of young
stems can occur during
unfavorable tempera-
tures (i.e. wind, cooler
temperatures, precipita-
tion) so it is essential to
monitor for damage
closer to the soil surface.
If treated seed is not
used or is not successful
in protecting the field, a
foliar-applied insecticide
may be used.
It is also important to
note that there are
many other insects that
can impact yield and
health of canola plants
later in the growing sea-
son. Some of these in-
sects include the bertha
armyworm, diamond-
back moth, cabbage
seedpod weevil and
wireworms. Informa-
tion on economic thresh-
olds and different
control methods for
each pest can be found
on the Saskatchewan
Agriculture Ministry
website or 2014 Guide
to Crop Protection.
Spring is slowly ar-
riving and the
feed stacks are
quickly disappearing.
Once the pairs are in
the pasture, time will
fly by and haying sea-
son will soon be upon
us. It is important to
consider your end of
feed season inventory
and evaluate against
your intended plan.
While forage stored in
the stack will deterio-
rate over time, the prac-
tise of carrying over 25
to 50 per cent of next
years feed requirements
is an excellent manage-
ment practise in regions
where feed production is
highly variable year to
year – also known as
the Palliser triangle.
When winter stays
longer, it is good to
know that the feed is al-
ready made and doesn’t
need to be sourced else-
where. Yet once the car-
ryover is eaten, it is no
longer available for next
year. Building up those
feed reserves can hap-
pen in a single year, but
so can their disappear-
ance.
Another factor that
often eats into the feed
reserves is the expan-
sion mode. The feed is
already made so we can
keep five per cent more
replacement heifers,
which turn into more
bred heifers and larger
requirements for stored
feed. Fundamentally we
know that we need to
make more feed to keep
more animals, but the
temptation to whittle
the pile down is pretty
easy to succumb to. On
an operation that pro-
duces and uses 1000
bales per winter and
starts the feeding sea-
son with 1300 bales (30
per cent carryover), it
will only take an extra
30 bales the first year to
carry the five per cent
extra replacement
heifers, reducing the
carryover to 270 bales.
A normal haying season
happens and 1000 bales
get made for a starting
inventory of 1270 bales.
The following year,
those extra bred heifers
now require 45 bales,
plus another larger re-
placement heifer group
is retained requiring 30
bales for an increased
total demand of 75
bales. After feeding the
regular herd plus those
few extras, the feed in-
ventory is down to 195
bales at the end of the
winter feeding season.
Then comes the hiccup -
- a dry spring reduces
hay yields by 10 per
cent. Starting inventory
for the third winter is
195 bales from last year
and 900 made this year.
The herd has grown so
that demand is now
going to be 1120 bales
for the winter. A quick
calculation indicates
that you will come up 25
bales short for the third
feeding season. Not in-
surmountable but it cer-
tainly shows how 30 per
cent extra inventory can
be reduced to none.

RM Review 11June 2014www.rmreview.net
12 June 2014
MP REPORTwww.rmreview.net RM Review
Last week, Prime Minister
Stephen Harper announced the
introduction of the Justice for
Animals in Service Act
(Quanto’s Law). This legislation
will ensure that those who harm
law enforcement, service and
Canadian Armed Forces ani-
mals face serious consequences.
Our Government recognizes the
special role that these animals
play in protecting our communi-
ties and improving the quality
of life of Canadians. The pro-
posed legislation is aimed at de-
nouncing and deterring the
wilful harming of specially
trained animals used to help
law enforcement officers, per-
sons with disabilities or the
Canadian Armed Forces.
The introduction of this legisla-
tion fulfills a commitment made
by our Government in the 2013
Speech from the Throne to rec-
ognize the daily risks taken by
police officers and their service
animals in their efforts to en-
force the law and protect Cana-
dians and communities. The
legislation honours Quanto, a
police dog who was stabbed to
death while helping to appre-
hend a fleeing suspect in Ed-
monton, Alberta, in
October 2013. Quanto had
four years of decorated
service and had partici-
pated in
more than 100 arrests.
Quick Facts:
The legislation pro-
poses Criminal Code
amendments that would
create a new offence
specifically prohibiting
the injuring or killing of
animals trained and
being used to help law en-
forcement officers, per-
sons with disabilities or
the Canadian Armed
Forces.
Persons con-
victed of such
an of-
fence could face up to five years’
imprisonment, with a manda-
tory minimum sentence of six
months in prison in cases where
a law enforcement animal is
killed while assisting a law en-
forcement officer in enforcing
the law and the offence is prose-
cuted by indictment.
If a law enforcement officer is
assaulted or a law enforcement
animal is injured or killed while
on duty, the sentence for that
offence would be served consec-
utively to any other sentence
imposed on the offender arising
out of the same event.
The RCMP currently has 157
police service dogs in service
across Canada: 135 are general
duty profile dogs and 22 are de-
tection profile dogs. They are
used to help find lost persons,
track criminals, and search for
items such as narcotics, explo-
sives and crime scene evidence.
In addition to the RCMP,
provincial and municipal police
services across Canada have in-
tegrated police service dogs as
part of their everyday service
delivery in our communities.
Canada Border Services
Agency has 53 dog-and-handler
teams that help to detect con-
traband drugs and firearms, un-
declared currency, and food,
plant and animal products.
Correctional Services Canada
uses dogs to help stop the flow
of illicit drugs and contraband
into federal correctional institu-
tions. They have over 100 dog-
and-handler teams across
Canada.
The Justice for Animals in
Service Act (Quanto’s Law) ap-
plies to law enforcement ani-
mals, service animals and
Canadian Armed Forces ani-
mals. In practical terms, dogs
would be the primary animals
protected by this new legislation
given they are the animals most
often trained and used to assist
law enforcement officers and
persons with disabilities. How-
ever, horses are also used by
some police forces. Also other
kinds of animals can be trained
as service animals to assist peo-
ple with disabilities. They all
would be protected under the
Justice for Animals in Service
Act (Quanto’s Law).

Today,
Saskatchewan is home to more peo-
ple, more activity and more opportu-
nities than ever before. This is
reflected in our province’s unemploy-
ment rate of 3.4 per cent – the low-
est in all of Canada, less than half of
the national average and our lowest
level ever on record.
Our strong and growing economy
is driven by the contributions of a di-
verse and growing population. This
growth means we can deliver a bal-
anced budget while still making the
important investments needed to en-
sure Saskatchewan is a great place
to live, work and play. Our govern-
ment’s seventh consecutive balanced
budget and continued investments
in infrastructure and people were
the highlights of the spring session
of the Legislative Assembly.
Some of the investments and new
initiatives announced during the
spring session include the new
Regina Bypass project, a commit-
ment to a new Saskatoon commuter
bridge, passing lanes and twinning
projects on a number of
Saskatchewan highways, a new
Saskatchewan Hospital in North
Battleford and the renewal of Victo-
ria Hospital in Prince Albert.
Our government is committed to
education and, to that end, we are
building nine new joint-use schools
in Regina, Saskatoon, Warman and
Martensville; we’re investing in up-
grades to bandwidth to increase in-
ternet speeds in schools and we’re
investing in 1,000 new training
seats and doubling the funding for
initiatives to improve education and
employment outcomes for First Na-
tions and Métis people. Our govern-
ment is also investing in
infrastructure that includes a new
Trades and Technology Centre in
Yorkton, continued construction at
Southeast Regional College in Wey-
burn and the Health Sciences Cen-
tre at the U of S in Saskatoon.
These are only some of the projects
introduced or funded this session
that will keep Saskatchewan on the
path of steady growth.
With the spring session now be-
hind us, my colleagues and I get
back to our home constituencies to
focus on our most important work –
listening to and representing our
constituents. This feedback is es-
sential as it helps to form our gov-
ernment’s priorities moving forward.
One of our ongoing priorities is
providing support for those who
need it and the Discounted Bus Pass
Program is one way we’re able to do
that. Whether it’s getting groceries
or going to appointments, this pro-
gram helps our province’s most vul-
nerable people get where they need
to go. The Discounted Bus Pass Pro-
gram allows participating cities to
set the retail rate they charge to the
client, while still ensuring it is at
least $25 below the full fare. It
makes accessing public transit eas-
ier for those receiving income assis-
tance and, in many cases, eligible
riders will only pay approximately
one-third the cost of a regular bus
pass.
Just a reminder that extra care
and attention is required now that
highway construction crews have
begun their work building and main-
taining Saskatchewan’s highways.
Simplified signage is in place direct-
ing drivers exactly when to slow to
60 km/h. Drivers who don’t run the
risk of facing three times the normal
fines for speeding. Wherever you go
this spring and summer, safe trav-
els!

Food for ThoughtLease Land for Sale C.M. (Red) Williams
The Saskatchewan government has
taken one more step in the ideo-
logical trend that has been evident
over its tenure. The land previously
held or lease with restrictions on its use
has been a contention for years. The
larger ranchers and farmers have
wanted to have title to their leased land
in a long time lease while the smaller
operators would prefer that it continue
as is because of the cost of purchase.
The claim by the Minister of Agriculture
that it is alright because the lessees
have been good stewards of the land is
pure “poppy cock.” They have been re-
quired to maintain the land in its origi-
nal state which is the objective of the
government’s ownership whether the
land is suitable for grain production or
not.
We have still not seen the end of the
move to sell-off the PFRA lands to indi-
viduals or groups and therefore exposing
them to cultivation and resale. The
whole picture is one in which land held
in trust by government is being aban-
doned and eventually lost of its original
purpose of protection from cultivation.
It is all a matter of political ideology;
whether you believe in conservation or
in the total exploitation of the land re-
source.
With little expectation that an election
will change the administration in the
next term, it behooves the public to ob-
ject as strongly as possible that the
wholesale sale of protected lands is
counter to the will of the majority.
Opinions are those of the author.

After the terrible
american re-
make of Godzilla
in 1998, we can forget
all about that with this
masterpiece of a mon-
ster movie. Godzilla is
directed by Gareth Ed-
wards and stars Bryan
Cranston, Aaron Tay-
lor-Johnson, Ken
Watanabe, and Eliza-
beth Olsen.
Let me start by say-
ing that hardly do the
use the word epic to de-
scribe a movie. I use
other worlds like out-
standing, amazing, per-
fect, and great. But
this was truly an epic
piece of film making.
The story starts us
with Dr. Joe Brody
(Bryan Cranston) los-
ing somebody close to
him in an accident at a
nuclear power plant. !5
years later, he is still
trying to figure out
what happened that
day. Joe needs the help
of his son, Ford (Aaron
Taylor-Johnson) to un-
cover the secrets of
what happened. After a
bunch of twists and
turns, monsters are re-
leased unto the earth
and only one thing can
stop them, Godzilla
himself.
The acting in this
movie is great, espe-
cially from Bryan
Cranston. He is worth
the price of admission
alone. Aaron Taylor-
Johnson on the other
hand is where this
movie falls flat. His
character is not that in-
teresting and to have
him as the lead was a
poor casting choice in
my decision, he wasn't
great but he was also
not the worst. But the
reason we are all here
is because of the king
of the monsters him-
self.
Godzilla is amazing!
Every single shot that
has him in it is grand
and when you see him
you want to stand and
cheer. His introduction
into the movie is just
outstanding and gave
me goosebumps when I
saw him. His roar is
where all the awesome-
ness happens. Because
of our great theatre in
Saskatoon, I was really
able to enjoy Godzilla
in all of it's 3D monster
glory.
Last but not least,
the third act. The first
and second act gave
teases to a huge fight
that happens between
Godzilla and the other
monsters. When the
third act is finally exe-
cuted, the pay-off is
worth it. I won't spoil
anything but I was al-
most in tears with hap-
piness. I walked out of
the theatre with a
smile on my face and
major anticipation to
watch it again.
I am giving Godzilla a

The Vanscoy and District Early
Learning Center has been cho-
sen as one of only a dozen
sites in the province to be a Host
Site for 2014. A host site visit is one
of the professional learning opportu-
nities offered by the ministry of edu-
cation in partnership with specific
early childhood programs. Early
childhood educators can visit one or
more sites that are continuously
working toward implementing high
quality practices for young children.
The Vanscoy Early Learning Center
has been working together with a
mentor to enhance the development
of Play and exploration in their cen-
ter.
The Ministry of Education has de-
veloped the Play and Exploration:
Early Learning Program Guide to
support your preschool-aged child’s
early learning. Child care centres
and homes, Prekindergarten pro-
grams and preschools are encour-
aged to use the guide to enhance
children’s learning.
The Ministry of Education’s Early
Learning Program Guide focuses on
learning through play. Research
shows that children learn best
through play, and that play helps
children learn the skills they need to
do well in school, build relationships
and understand others. When chil-
dren explore something that inter-
ests them, they learn more quickly
and remember what they have
learned more easily. Play such as
this can provide opportunities to
practice things like counting (the
number of cows, the number of cars
that can fit in the garage) or naming
colours (the brown house goes first,
only the red truck can park in the
garage). Your Child Plays..Ex-
plores...Learns (Saskatchewan Min-
istry of Education) For more
information go to
www.education.gov.sk.ca/ELCC.
More recently the center was cho-
sen to pilot the new Essential Learn-
ing Experiences document which is a
supporting document to Play and
Exploration which provides further
information regarding the domains
of holistic learning for preschool
aged children. The document in-
cludes further learning in the areas
of social/emotional, Physical, spiri-
tual and Intellectual development.
Educators in the center have also
been working closely with the
Healthy Start Program based out of
the University of Saskatchewan.
This program ensures children are
getting enough physical activity and
develop healthy eating habits.
The Vanscoy Early Learning Cen-
ter would like to thank the families
that attended the Early Childhood
Educator Day Parade and BBQ,
there was a great turn out again this
year. The month of May was Early
Childhood Education month we
would like to send a big thank you to
our Early Childhood Educators in
our province.
For information on our programs
please call the center at 306-668-
6338.
Where does the time go, such
a familiar phrase! Once
again the time has come for
new animateurs to be chosen to help
us get ready for Culture Days on
September 26, 27 & 28th. You may
recall that I was an amatuer a few
years back and since then I have
been a strong supporter of Culture
Days and the amatuer project. These
artists from various disciplines are
hired to come out to any and all
Saskatchewan communities, schools,
museums and organizations to en-
courage culture in community as
well as culture days events at no
charge. I must tell you they are an
invaluable resource. The one in our
area this year is Kevin Powers and
he is a force to be reckoned with, a
wonderful gentleman with a wealth
of knowledge and experience in
music & theatre that includes
Broadway. He has come up with a
project that will resonate with us all.
Kevin wants to record the stories of
Saskatchewan and put them up on
Itunes as podcasts for everyone to
enjoy. He is looking for people with
stories. Hey, that’s all of us! The
passing of my mother a year ago has
made this idea a bit bitter sweet, for
she had a story, an incredible story
of survival and strength and we
don’t have much of it saved and it is
gone now, forever. So I encourage
you to do a couple of things. First,
save those stories! Write them down,
record them on your phone or your
computer. Technology makes it so
easy for us to do these things and no
one ever regrets saving a memory.
Second find out about the anima-
teurs this year and have them out to
your group, school or town. Check
out http://sk.culturedays.ca/en/about
to find out all about them. Lastly,
mark your calendars for Culture
Days in Delisle, we are going to cele-
brate visual arts this year, please
spread the word. We are looking for
projects by filmmakers in the area
that we can screen in September.
The Friday Night Concert Series
ended with a fantastic concert by
Jeffery Straker, what a finale for an-
other wonderful year of music. Many
thanks to everyone who help us
make it happen, The Delisle United
Church, the Seniors Centre, the
United Church Youth Group and
everyone who bought tickets. Watch
for info on next years line up, it’s
gonna be another wonderful year of
music for Delisle!!
The Delisle & District Arts Council
is putting out a community guide
and invite groups and businesses to
submit their information so we can
have a great resource for everyone in
the area. Contact Pamela Hank
[email protected] (or call/text
306-361-7583) Deadline is August
10th. Volunteers for Delisle Days on
July 19th are invited to call Sylvia @
493-2955, please help us make this a
wonderful event! If you are inter-
ested in being part of the Arts Coun-
cil in anyway, please call Sylvia,
we’d love to get your input.
