Local offi cials are preparing for potential fl ooding in and around Minnedosa. Public Works superinten-

dant Kevin Marcino is investing this year in about 100 ft of portable aquadams which are fi lled with water at the site required. He says this will be important this year. “I’m not sure there will be much coming down the river, but overland will be more of a problem.” He says the permanent dikes west of the Main Street bridge, close to M & M Autobody and by the golf course should serve this year’s needs. What will need more at-tention is over land fl ooding and fl ow coming out of some of the small drains on #16A on the south (past the courthouse) and north (up the hill) ends of town. Marcino says the aquadams are mobile and easier to handle than sandbags, especially on inclines. Th ey can be fi lled at the source of fl ooding, or if need be with wa-ter trucks. He says the Town has also been talking with the Province about providing an additional trailer with more aquadams which can be used for training on use of the dams, and storage. Owned by the Province, the trailer and associated dams would be used at the Province’s dis-cretion, and moved if deemed to be more necessary at another location. Th e Province released an updated fl ood forecast on March 26th, but Marcino says it’s still too early to say what the fl ooding situation in town is going to look like. “What is going to change it for us is a lot of heat over a period of time, or rain,” which would speed up the melt and could result in fl ash fl ooding in town.

Municipalities have begun to give pub-

lic notice of their seasonal pesticide control pro-grams, with Harrison fi rst out of the gate. Th eir list includes Tordon, a chemi-cal that generates con-cerns for local producers. Tordon is a trade name for picloram, a persistent her-bicide that survives animal digestion and does not ad-here to soil. Ruth Pryzner farms near Rivers, MB. “In

our area, my concern is that we are at the bottom of the watershed. Every-thing drains this way, and picloram kills everything but grass. In 2005, Chauvin AB found that picloram in their wells was killing their gardens when they used it.” Health Canada’s water quality guidelines for 2012 list picloram as having sig-nifi cant potential to leach into groundwater. In terms of health impacts, Health Canada notes the chemi-

cal can infl uence changes in body and liver weights and clinical chemistry pa-rameters, and can have kidney eff ects. Th e chemi-cal has also been found to be deadly to small fi sh. David Neufeld and Magdalene Andres are growers near Boissevain, and report that in 2010 the bedding plants they grow for sale were dying. Th ey traced the picloram back to their compost, to which they had added horse ma-nure. Th e horses had eaten hay that Neufeld had cut from his ditches where, unbeknownst to him, their local municipality had sprayed. It was the one year he had forgotten to check fi rst. Chris Reynolds from the Whitemud Watershed Conservation District says that the conservation dis-trict works in partnership with municipalities on pesticide programs, in part to control noxious weeds. Pryzner agrees that plants like leafy spurge are near impossible to get rid of. But, she says

that despite her annual exemptions from muni-cipal spraying, she has found that sheep grazing the ditches works better on her leafy spurge than chemical application, and also maintains the insect life that help to keep weed problems under control. Cindy Murray farms near Basswood, MB, and has requested exemptions since the 1980s. For a while her farm was designated

organic, but she forgoes the certifi cation process now while maintaining most of the practices. She maintains alfalfa and other grasses in her ditches, and simply cuts them when they grow long, rather than using chemical applica-tions, saying, “the sprays knock back the weeds, but they don’t stop the pro-cess.” Staying away from chemicals is important to her business. “We sell

direct to consumers,” she says, remarking that she and her partner talk to their buyers who care about chemical applications. Neufeld and Andres say that there needs to be clarity on the legality of the use of picloram; noting that in 2010, Health Canada was prohibiting its use on ditches, but that now they no longer consider road-side ditches to be ‘aquatic habitat’.

“When all is said and done, have you done and said enough?” Last week-end MCI C.H.A.N.G.E. members decided they had not done enough. On Sunday, March 17th, C.H.A.N.G.E. held their annual benefi t. Ms. Lois McGill talked about her life changing adventures and travels. Th ere were also homemade good-ies and exotic art for auc-tion. Th ere were over 50 people in attendance and the whole event went smoothly. Doors opened at 1:00

p.m. and people made their way to their seats. Th e actual event started around 1:45 p.m. It opened with a brief presentation by Hay-ley and Kirstin Surovy on the impact C.H.A.N.G.E. has had on the world. We learned that the size of a school does not matter, but the eff ort you put in. Next there was a break for des-serts and a chance to bid on the silent auction items. Some serious bidding oc-curred before we returned to our seats for the second part of the program. Next Lois McGill, who grew up in Neepawa and now lives in Winnipeg, took the mic as she shared

her story. She had been to Kenya on a teacher ex-change program to help the less fortunate. She’s also been to Guatemala and pretty much all over with her students help-ing out in every way pos-sible. Th e audience was so engaged you could have heard a pin drop. She was an amazing inspiration. We paused for a snack break once again and pre-pared for the live auction. Th e auction went well with several beautiful paintings and scarves sold. Th e ben-efi t was then concluded for another year. Although the numbers were a little smaller this

year, the success stayed the same. Multiple compli-ments were received and nearly $2,400 was raised for local and international charities. Of course, this event couldn’t have hap-pened without the contin-ued support of our com-munity members who attend and so generously support C.H.A.N.G.E.! C.H.A.N.G.E. is always looking for donations for their benefi t so if you are travelling in the next year and are willing to bring back some unique hand-crafted items please con-tact MCI or a C.H.A.N.G.E. member.

The local palliative care committee is seeking new members to volunteer to sit with patients who are dy-

ing. Marion McNabb off ers that while many people are shy about participating in this kind of work, “I think they aren’t giving themselves a chance.” She and her husband chose to care for her mother in their home when she was dying of cancer. Th e experience was positive, and it made her feel like telling others: “Go back to the old way! You’ll never regret having your family member at home.” Situations and circumstances vary at end of life time, but the local palliative care committee, of which McNabb is a part, want to ensure that local individuals and families have support in the lead up to and time of death. Mona Koroscil, Area Manager for the Minnedosa Health Centre says that the group has provided impor-tant leadership in the development of end of life care in the region. “Th ey are well trained and organized,” she says, which ensures organized and prompt responses to people that are deemed to be palliative. Volunteers coor-dinate shifts so that someone can be present with a pa-tient on a 24 hour basis. All volunteers go through initial and ongoing train-ings, and also have the option of attending conferences. McNabb participated in a six week course when she be-gan volunteering in 2002, which she says emphasized listening, non judgement, and a focus on patient needs. “As a volunteer, your ideas and your beliefs are not the important thing. Your job is to help the person express the fears or feelings they have if they want to. It’s not our job to counsel, or even talk. Sometimes we are asked to leave the room. Th at’s fi ne. It’s not personal.” McNabb continues “Sometimes you are doing it more for the sake of the family than the patient. So you’re there so they can take a break, or go talk with a family member to make plans, or whatever,” She adds that vol-unteers sit overnight with patients, sometimes simply so that family members can show up fresh the next day. Koroscil says there is a need for men, and also younger people to support the work, and that one way to get a better sense of the work would be to attend the April 17th workshop happening in Minnedosa on wholistic and balanced end of life care. Anyone interested in join-ing the group, or more information can call Dianne Kre-shewski at 204-867-2701.

Not long ago, tariff s were the key barriers to Canadian beef exports. Tariff barriers are still signifi cant prob-

lems (Korea for example), but as tariff barriers fall, coun-tries are getting more creative in building border barriers. In some ways it makes me nostalgic for the good old days when our market access eff orts primarily consisted of the cry: “Tear down that tariff wall.” It is not that simple anymore. Mandatory country-of-origin labelling (COOL) is one example of a non-tariff barrier that is costing Mani-toba’s beef industry hundreds of millions of dollars. COOL became law in the U.S. in 2002. What is COOL? Simply speaking, COOL requires all meat sold in the U.S. to carry a label indicating the coun-try from which the product originated. American politicians argue that the law is necessary to help inform U.S. consumers about where their meat comes from. But market research indicates that those consumers place very little value on the information pro-vided by the new labels. Basically, consumers care about the information only if it does not cost them anything to get it. But while the price at U.S. meat counters may not be any diff erent, the cost to the Canadian beef industry has been huge. It is estimated that COOL costs the Canadian beef industry about $625 million dollars each and every year. COOL hits Canada’s pork producers equally hard. Canada and Mexico have always objected to COOL because it unfairly discriminates against beef exported into the U.S. Th e law requires segregation of animals that have been imported from another country. Th is has sig-nifi cantly increased the cost of processing Canadian live-stock and many U.S. plants have cut back on Canadian purchases, or cut them out altogether. Canada and Mexico have taken the U.S. to the World Trade Organization (WTO), and convincingly won both the initial case and the appeal launched by the Ameri-cans. Th e WTO ordered the U.S. to end its unfair discrim-ination by May 23, 2013. Th at is not going to happen. Ear-lier this month, the U.S. Agriculture Secretary proposed regulatory changes that he claims will address the WTO’s concerns. In fact, the proposed changes will make things worse. Additional labeling requirements will increase dis-crimination against Canada and Mexico. Instead of decreasing the regulatory burden, the proposals will in-crease the costs of compliance. In fact, it is my view that not only do these proposals fail to comply with the ex-isting WTO ruling, but they also violate additional trade provisions. You might think that U.S. beef and pork producers

are 110 per cent behind their government on COOL, but they are not. You see, free trade is good for both sides of the border. Th e vast majority of U.S. producers and pro-cessors support removing COOL provisions because the regulations are hurting the U.S. industry. It is estimated that the new rules proposed in the U.S. will cost 9,000 American jobs. Th is is a case of a lose-lose situation. Th is fi ght is not over. If the U.S. proceeds down the current path, Canada will return to the WTO. Untimely, the WTO may grant Canada and Mexico the right to im-pose tariff s on U.S. goods to compensate us for the cost of COOL. I hope it does not come to this but given the losses to our livestock sectors, this is not something our govern-ments will back away from. Unfortunately, in the short term the legal process will continue. It is likely that there will be six to eight months of additional legal review at the WTO (making some trade lawyers a lot more money) before a conclu-sion is reached. What lesson can livestock producers take from the COOL battle? Th e simple answer is that trade is more complicated than it used to be. COOL is just one example of non-tariff barriers to export access. Some countries do not like the supplements that are commonly used in North American meat production. Some countries do not like the extra food safety precautions in place in Ca-nadian plants. Our approaches are science-based and an improvement of food safety. But because they have not been approved by the EU’s own internal bureaucracy, they do not accept them. I am certain that there are bu-reaucrats around the world who are currently trying to invent barriers based on environmental factors or their perception of animal welfare. Manitoba’s beef producers, and our province as a whole, benefi t signifi cantly from beef trade. Over half of what we produce leaves the country. We must continue to aggressively pursue new opportunities on the interna-tional market. But we need to keep in mind that trade will be complicated. New barriers will appear, often when least expected. We need to be ready to deal with these issues as they come up. But we also need to be proactively addressing the problem. Governments can do their part by building better dispute resolution processes, which is anticipated in the Canada-EU trade deal. Producers are also going to be asked to take steps if they want to continue to access international markets. Today some producers will say that they fi nd these mea-sures, like traceability, costly and of little benefi t. But more and more our customers are telling us that they will only purchase our products if we can prove how our ani-mals were raised. Th is is increasingly becoming the price of doing business.

Dear Editor,

If Mayor and Council proceed with MREC as

they’re planning, MREC will cost the average Minnedosa household at least $500 a year. According to the MREC website, 80 orga-nizations and individu-als have donated $500 or more to MREC fundrais-ing. $500 will garner a named seat or sustainer donor status. 52 organiza-tions and individuals have been recognized for do-nating less than $500. Council currently an-ticipates $300,000 for the debenture, $50,000 generated by a levy and $35,000 to Minnedosa

Minor Hockey annual-ly. Unfortunately, I fi nd these fi gures to be woe-fully low and would an-ticipate operational costs to the Town in excess of $200,000 annually instead of $85,000. Th is would translate to annual costs of more than $500,000 annually. Minnedosa is a community of approxi-mately 1,000 households. In my opinion, the average household of Minnedosa will become an annual

sustainer donor for the duration of the debenture. Furthermore, I do not be-lieve matching funds from the provincial and federal governments will be avail-able to the Town. For this reason I have started a petition. It sim-ply states: Minnedosa Mayor and Council: Con-duct a feasibility study of MREC’s funding and oper-ational costs. As a resident of Minnedosa, who is eligi-ble to vote, I believe Coun-

cil has not demonstrated the availability of federal and provincial funding for the current MREC project. Furthermore, Council has not satisfactorily assessed the operational costs once the project is built. Provin-cial funding for a study of this nature is available. To date, some 50 peo-ple have signed it. Given the potential cost of this project, this would be money well spent. Links to the petition can be found online at mrecfea-sibility.blogspot.ca. Can-vassing for signatures will occur at a later date.

Dear Editor,

My class, at TCS, is participating in the Energy Diet Challenge. Th e challenge is put on by Shell Can-

ada and Canadian Geographic. Th ere are several chal-lenges that we have been working on, and sharpening our research skills in the process, to fi nd out how to be more energy effi cient and, in general, learn ways to have a “healthier” Earth. Th e article I chose was written by Bryan Walsh on why Coke had gone “White for Polar Bears”. Th is article was written on October 7th, 2011. In this article it ex-plains how Coca Cola has a big expectation for great products and a huge image to keep intact. So that is one of the many reasons that they teamed up with World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to turn 1.4 Billion cans from red to white to dedicate them to the polar bears and how their habitat is starting to disappear. Also, Coca Cola has donated $2 million dollars to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). I agree with how Coca Cola is trying to raise aware-ness of the polar bears’ situation. I also agree with them donating $2 million dollars to WWF to help re-pair damages to the polar bears’ habitat but I also think that changing the colour of pop cans is not go-ing to save the polar bears! Plus all the toxins used to make the cans defi nitely do not help.

Sincerely,

Madison Kushner, Your reporter from TCS

Hello Minnedosa. Th at time of the week

again, time to read about your local RCMP. Not as many fi les as recent weeks but that doesn’t mean we weren’t busy helping Neepawa or Gladstone. Th ere is always something going on! A female from Er-ickson was arrested for impaired driving when Police found her vehicle swerving into the oncom-

ing traffi c lane. She was very cooperative with po-lice throughout the ordeal though, which was greatly appreciated. Her license was suspended and she will be going to court com-ing up shortly this spring. Cst. Stokes pulled some marijuana off the highway in a truck driv-ing the speed limit. A ran-dom license and registra-tion check revealed some marijuana smell in the ve-

hicle and the driver was ar-rested shortly afterwards. Th e search of the vehicle that was conducted pulled out some marijuana. Th e driver will be appearing for court on charges of posses-sion. Several traffi c colli-sions on icy roads in the last reporting period oc-curred. Luckily, no serious injuries resulted. Th e odd deer has paid the price though this winter, that is for sure. Another remind-er from me to take cau-tion on the roads. Blowing wind can make Highway #16 miserable real quick. Freeze/thaw always makes things interesting. Use caution as per usual. Like always.

A Clanwilliam male was caught clipping down the beach road in town at 90km/hr in the 70km/hr zone. I was able to turn around on the icy road after some spinning out, in order to write him his $312.25 ticket. He wasn’t too pleased with his faulty speedometer on his vehi-cle, but thanked me for the ticket. Th ese occurrences are rare, but I fetched the thank you, and will store it in my noggin for a day when I need it. He is the fi rst Clanwilliam speeder of the week in my time here to my knowledge, and there you have it. Have a safe and fun week. See you around town.

Over 41 years ago, for the six years spanning

1972 to 1977 the Clanwil-liam Greys Fastball Team was a force to be reckoned with! As a result, 29 team players will be inducted into Th e Manitoba Softball Hall of Fame this year at the 12th annual induction banquet scheduled to take place on May 4th at the Ca-nad Inn Polo Park in Win-nipeg. Hailing from the areas around the Village of Clan-william, which is south-east of Erickson, the Clan-william Greys began in 1968 as a team of 13 young men all in their late teens and early twenties. For all six years for which they are being recognized, the team was coached by Onanole resident, Allan McPher-son, formerly a life-long resident of Clanwilliam. Ten members of the team played for all six years, forming the nucleus of the successful and tena-cious team. Th ere were Malcolm Klym, Charlie Richards, Jim Richards, Phillip McPherson, Al-lan McPherson, Harold Hopkins, Elgin Robertson, Craig Horback, Jim Krutke-wich and Clare Harralson. Others players were Leonard Horback, Bob Madill, Don Gusafson, Bruce McLaughlin, Brian

Smith, Evan Bertram, Gor-don Moyer, Terry Chwaluk, Barry Zachedniak, Doug Hedley, Brian Kiliwnik, Keith Wood, Dennis Mag-wood, Roy Enns, Terry Bone, Randy Bone, Frank Foord, David Syslak and Bruce Jamieson. Together, these young men were a dominating presence in league and provincial play in Southern Manitoba for six consecu-tive years, which is why they have earned Fastball Hall of Fame recognition. In 1972 and 1973, they played 90 games and 92 games respectively, result-ing in ‘undefeated status’ in the Minnedosa and Dis-trict Fastball League, and earning them $1,100 in tournament prize money. No team was willing to play against the Clan-william Greys in the 1973 playoff s, so with a desire to play more ball, the Greys played half a season in the Neepawa Fastball League, fi nishing undefeated in eight road games. Th ey won their fi rst provincial title with an average roster age of 23.2 years. At the end of the 1974 season the Minnedo-sa league dissolved, so the Clanwilliam Greys joined the ‘big time’ Bran-don Centennial Fastball League, fi nishing league play with a 14-6 record for third place in the stand-

ings. In 1975 they contin-ued to hone their skills, playing over 70 games and winning many tourna-ments. By 1976 the Clanwil-liam Greys, with several player additions, won the league title with a record of 13-5 and played in the Se-nior ‘A’ Provincial Cham-pionships for the 4th con-secutive year. In 1977 they again won within their league with a record of 19-3, leading in team hitting with a batting average av-erage of .323. As time has passed, the Clanwilliam Greys have remained active, win-ning a total of seven Pro-vincial Championships -- 1973 Senior “C,” 1987 In-termediate “A,” 1999, 2001, 2004, 2010 and 2012 Senior “B,” all spanning an amaz-ing seven decades! Dur-ing the 2011 season, there were still two of the origi-nal players on the Clan-william Greys roster, Allan McPherson and Malcolm Klym, both originally from Clanwilliam. Playing softball has been very important in the life of Malcolm Klym. He recalls with great fondness the days when “all the guys would pile into vehicles and head off to a tourna-ment,” not only looking forward to the competitive sport, but also to the tasty hotdogs and hamburg-

ers! Th ey would practise almost every night, too, tossing the ball around for an hour and a half or so per session. Th e camaraderie, he said was the best thing – “all the great friendships I’ve made and honed even more over the years.” He also played on the team with his son, which was a wonderful experience. It’s the love of the game that keeps Klym playing with the Clanwilliam Greys Masters and he’s looking forward to the 2013 sea-son.

Allan McPherson is going into his 45th (!) year of managing and coach-ing the Clanwilliam Greys Fastball Team. He is un-derstandably proud of the team’s accomplishments and says he is thankful for the tremendous sup-port he has had from the veteran players. He has happy memories of play-ing alongside his brother for 12 years and echoed Klym’s reverence for all the friendships he has made and great people he has met during the course of his involvement. McPher-son will be twice honoured by the Softball Hall of Fame, into which he was also inducted in 2009 as a builder, coach and player.

Th e Manitoba Softball Hall of Fame and Museum recognizes individuals, teams and organizations for outstanding achieve-ment in softball and/or for contributing to the sport of softball.

The Minnedosa Vet-erinary Clinic recent-

ly welcomed a new vet, Dr. Troy Gowan on staff . Gowan is originally from Arden, MB, and brings a special interest in equine medicine and production. He joins Dr. Regan Skelton, techs Karen Bramley, Kathy Soltys, and Hayleigh Max-imchuk, and head vet Dr. James Comrie. Th e clinic is also enjoying the use of new equipment including a horse stock used to con-fi ne horses during exami-nation and treatment; and a digital dental x-ray ma-chine for quicker and more accurate small animal den-tal care. Dr. Comrie and I were both jonesing for some kind of exciting veterinary emergency for me to dig in and write about. Alas. Friday afternoon produced nothing other than a few yippy dogs, and a sad look-ing calf. Luckily, he’s a writer, and we picked this off of his newsletter. Facing off against Cops’ Corner for cheeky local writing profes-sionals, here’s a piece writ-ten by Dr. Comrie.

I Remember the time

By Dr. JAMES COMRIE

It was a grey blur. As Hay-leigh and I stood alone

in one of our small exam rooms, mouths agape, watching the hairy streak ripping round and round the room, I thought to my-self, “Not what I was hop-ing for!” Th is feisty, feral feline, frantic for freedom, fl ung himself anywhere but into Hayleigh’s re-straining embrace. I qui-etly asked her to “grab that cat” and she politely screamed “not on your life!” As the cat completed his third lap, he changed tactics and launched him-self off the chair in the corner. Gaining altitude, he reached out a paw and sunk his claws into the bot-tom corner of my favorite picture on the wall. Th e streak was now a kind of bizarre, hairy pendulum, scrapping to and fro across the wall, suspended only by the single nail hold-ing the whole contraption aloft. As chance would

have it, Regan and Karen were working with a dog in the adjacent room and heard the commotion, the scream and the scratch-ing rhythm on the wall. No doubt intrigued, their curiosity was piqued when Hayleigh cracked the exam room door open and whis-pered, “Is Karen in the building?” I should briefl y inter-rupt to expain the cat was a stray, presented to us by the Town poundkeeper for vaccination, as he was being re-homed to a local farmyard. Also, it is widely

known that few things ex-cited Karen more than the challenge of wrangling an angry cat. When cats get upset, they become really dangerous, and like a mag-net, some mystical instinct draws Karen into the fi ght. Blanket in hand, Karen slid through the door, and with a smirk and a fl our-ish, plucked our frightened friend off the wall and into submission. Exhausted, Hayleigh and I vaccinated the cat, and deposited him back in his kennel. Karen breezed on with her day.

Mayor of Minnedosa, Ray Orr and Jim Anderson, Reeve of Minto attended the Association of Mani-

toba Municipalities meeting last week in Dauphin where Minister of Local Government Ron Lemieux once again addressed the issue of amalgamation. Rural municipalities are being asked to amalgamate if their population falls below 1000- exempting the Town of Minnedosa from the requirement. Minto and Odanah, however, fall within the amalgamation conditions. Reeve Anderson notes that the rural municipalities of Odanah and Minto have shared a building for over a century, and already work to reduce costs by partnering where it makes sense to do so. Anderson opposed amal-gamation at the meeting. He notes that the impact of formal amalgamation will result in less representation for ratepayers on the municipal council. Orr observed that most municipalities seem open to finding ways to reduce costs, but are reacting nega-tively to the message of being forced to do so through amalgamation. He supports the AMM position which is for municipalities to go forward with amalgamation if they choose to do so.

On Th ursday, March 21st, Frank and Le-

ona Kucher held a fi rst Birthday Party for Phoenix Gunn, their great grand-daughter. Her mother, S h a n n o n G u n n , a n d brother Jeremy Gunn; her grandma Sandra Gunn all

of Neepawa; her papa, Jim Gunn; and her uncle Brad Gunn, of Onanole, were all there for supper. Sympathy of the Er-ickson and Onanole areas is extended to the family and friends of Barry Scott, who passed away recent-ly. His funeral was held on Saturday, March 23rd,

at the Erickson Lutheran/Onanole United Church. Barry was a longtime resident of Erickson, and worked for many years at the Co-op service station in Erickson, before his re-tirement. I’d like to wish every-one a happy Easter.

Recent snow and con-tinued below normal

temperatures have begun to create the potential for a couple of spring melt scenarios neither of which is likely to have a positive outcome. Ideally, from a producer’s perspective, a slow melt with tempera-tures around the freezing mark would have been on everyone’s wish list. Th e lack of frost would have al-lowed for minimal runoff and a recharge of our sub-soil moisture which will be critically important come mid to late July when our crops will be entering the fl owering stage of develop-ment. Unfortunately the calendar is no longer our ally. We are now entering the last 7-10 days of March and there is a pile of snow yet to melt. A slow melt at this point will result in spring seeding dates pushed back into the mid-dle of May which will cre-ate all kinds of cropping issues associated with de-layed seeding. Th e quick melt sce-

nario on the other hand will see signifi cant runoff and with it all the agro-nomic and production issues associated with overland fl ooding. Unlike last year, the GPS and auto steer will likely see infre-quent use and one will certainly need to fi ne tune one’s ability to gauge just how shiny a pothole you can seed through. Seed-ing decisions and crop-ping options may also be infl uenced by fi eld ac-cess especially if untimely rains further complicate matters. Besides seeding issues the largest con-cern with the quick melt scenario will be the loss of valuable moisture that was needed to recharge our subsoil. Last fall our topsoil (0 to 6-8 inches) was recharged with fall rains however our sub-soil remained dry. A slow melt would have allowed this moisture to perco-late down through to the subsoil and recharge this portion of the soil profi le. Th e quick melt however will see a large percent-age of this snow moisture

runoff similar to rapidly pouring water over a satu-rate sponge. Ultimately this lack of recharge of our subsoil will necessitate some timely rains during fl owering especially if we see above normal temper-atures in mid to late July. Given either scenar-io the potential for April seeding this spring seems to be highly unlikely. Th is may mean taking a sec-ond look at seeding deci-sions and crop rotations especially if some longer season crops or varieties had been planned. Be-sides maturity other con-siderations might include choosing wheat varieties that have good resistance to fusarium and tolerance to wheat midge. On a more positive note the cooler temperatures should slow down the migration of the leaf hopper that was re-sponsible for all our Aster Yellow problems last year and hopefully reduce the incidence of the alfalfa weevil which dramatically reduced alfalfa yields in 2012.

April seeding highly unlikely

No Limit on Business Meeting Attendance

“Th e ordinary person feels, correctly, that their interests and voice are ignored in the decision making processes of so called democracies.”- Dr Ryan Meili Is it conceivable for political parties to oper-ate the “voice of one who listens”? Ryan Meili thinks so. Still, he identifi es that our practice, generally as a society, and specifi cally in political parties is of manipulation and frag-mentation. In attempting open discussion of issues, he says, “there is a tempta-tion, when faced with en-emies that appear illogical and intransigent, to over-ride them with force, or ignore them and proceed through trickery.” He promotes the op-posite in regenerating a politics of honest identi-fi cation of priorities and problem solving. Trust-ing others as a method of promoting trust. Bringing people with other ideas

in, as a way of moving to-wards unity. Th is is his prescrip-tion for a society that he believes has lost sight of what matters; that is, (somewhat predictably from a physician,) the col-lective health of our com-munities. Meili quotes Rudolf Virchow, a 19th century pioneering pa-thologist: “Medicine is a social science and politics is nothing else than medi-cine on a social larger scale,” and asks: why not evaluate government ac-cording to our ability to build individual and col-lective health? What bet-ter measure? Meili thinks his life as a family practitioner in Saskatoon would be a lot less busy, were this the case. Off ering examples from his practice of pa-tients who might not even need to see a doctor if they were fi rst able to access basics of stable and safe shelter, healthy food, and work with a living wage, he observes that time, mon-

ey, and most importantly, health is being wasted . A Healthy Society posits that we actually support pov-erty and ill health through the poor political choices we make together. We continue to hear about the growing gap between rich and poor in Canada, and the increasing complexity of poverty, including its links to illness. For Meili, these are natural results of valuing gross domestic product as the showcase of a nation’s worth, and will worsen in spite indi-vidual eff orts of people to get out of poverty or to get well if we aren’t able to redirect our attention and eff orts towards quality of life. Meili encourages us to value the elements of individual and collective health, and to refl ect this understanding in policy. Th ese ‘social determi-nants of health’, are, in order of impact, income status, education, social support networks, em-ployment and working

conditions, early child-hood development, physi-cal environment, personal health practices and cop-ing skills, biological and genetic factors, health services, gender, culture, mass media technology (ie television viewing and physical inactivity. Having lost the Sas-katchewan NDP leader-ship race by 44 votes last week, Meili speaks from experience of diving into politics head fi rst with his brand of working from the roots. With ideas in-formed from his commu-nity based health practice around the world, and in Saskatoon, Meili off ers a task list of how politics and government could support more communi-cation and networking on the ground, stronger, bet-ter integrated communi-ties, better representation from politicians, and ulti-mately, better health out-comes.

Dear Reena, I would like to make fancy cookies for my daughter’s classmates. My plan is to sprinkle the sugar cookies with coloured sug-ar; however I don’t want to buy the sugar because I fi nd it expensive. Is there a way to make my own co-loured sugar? Angie

Dear Angie, Into a sealable bag or jar, pour 1 cup white sugar and add two drops food colouring. Shake or blend with a fork until sugar col-ors evenly, add additional food coloring to darken hue.

Hi Reena, What can I use on rust in my porcelain kitchen sink? It is from leaving cans sitting in the sink. I have tried strong tile cleaner and bleach; they both remove all other stains but not the rust. Terry

Dear Terry, For your sink you can try the following sugges-tions, make sure to rinse well between solutions and test on an inconspicu-ous area fi rst. Begin with a paste of baking soda and toothpaste and scrub hard. Or sprinkle area with lemon juice or 3% hydro-gen peroxide and salt. Or ventilate and clean with a product called Iron Out. Or clean with ceramic stove top cleaner.

Hi Reena, Firstly, the question about robot vacuums. We have a home with a long hair (very noticeable shed-ding) and a short hair (not so noticeable but sheds, none the less) cats. My wife and I are both seniors and we are still working. I purchased an iRobot pet series for our home. I must add that my wife is a clean house freak and I re-

ally questioned her about whether she would use the iRobot or would she send it to the vacuum graveyard in the basement (she can’t stand poor vacuums). She said she would give it a fair shot. Well, that was a year ago and this robot vacuum has become her best friend of gadgets. It cleans house every day at 10:00 a.m. af-ter we have left for work. It runs for an hour and a half and gets into places she can’t reach easily. It is pow-erful and yes, the odd time it gets stuck and shuts off but it keeps the fl oors clear of continually shedding cat hair and I might add, of con-tinually shedding human skin cells and body hair. It is amazing what it picks up, even after she has done her weekly thorough clean-ing. Maintenance does not take that long. Once a day I tap out the catch basin and fi lter which takes all of two minutes and once a week I thoroughly clean the wheels, etc. of wound hair and blow out the fi lter and machine itself with an air can which takes 10 minutes at most. Th at’s it. My wife has only to vacuum once a week doing mainly the fur-niture. I might add she has a hip problem and when you vacuum there is a lot of weight bearing on your hip joints. Since getting the iRobot her hip problems have decreased dramati-cally. Th e time saved with this device is enormous and the sight of a clean fl oor when you come home is priceless. If you have the time to vacuum daily and you enjoy it great. But for

most of us working stiff s the iRobot is the greatest thing since God gave us wives. Your readers should not hesitate to purchase one. Secondly, I feel your advice to the lady with alu-minum foil burnt onto the surface of her oven was misleading and potentially hazardous to her and her family’s health. Aluminum is a very useful substance but is an inherently danger-ous material health wise, especially when ingested by breathing it in. When it is heated in the self-clean-ing mode it will off gas for some time and that is not good. She should look into replacing the bottom cover of her stove for hers and her family’s health, especially if she has young children. Gavin

Fabulous Tips of the week

Did you know that tu-lips actually originated in Turkey? Legend has it that the name tulip comes from turban hats historically worn in Turkey. Tulip bulbs should be planted at a depth three times the length of the bulb. If you receive potted tulips for Easter and would like to plant them in your garden here is how. Wait until the leaves turn brown, this happens when nutri-ents in the foliage push down and are stored in the bulb. When the leaves die, dig a hole and plant bulbs outside along with bone meal, soil and water.

Newdale Raven’s Glen WI hosted the annual

Southwest “A” Regional Convention on March 20th with 50+ members present from the seven local clubs that make up this Region. Th e morning session had two great presentations, 1. “Living Me to We”, had fi ve students and their teacher Mrs. Geekie tell us about their experiences building a school in India after one of them, Grace Kang of Strathclair School, won the 2011 We Day im-promptu speech category. Grace and friends Shaylyn Lamb, Lisa Rystephanuk, Robyn Gerrard and Jessica Arnfi nson were there to begin digging the footings for the school fl oor. Th ey had a pick axe, a shovel and a large round dish for tools! What a fantastic ex-perience these girls had and will always remem-ber. 2. “Learning Curves” explained a new pilot pro-gram between schools in Park West School Division and Waywayseecappo schools.
