FIRST TIME BUYER’S PROGRAM By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer The scope of one local sewer project in the city has increased dramatically. Initially planned to be storm system improvements near York Road, the project has now been expanded to include a new sewer trunk line on Dracup. This means a sub- stantial increase in budget which was approved at a recent meeting of city coun- cil. The change order to G. Ungar Construction will be $2,989,175, the bulk of which will be made up of a new sanitary sewer trunk line on Dracup Ave. This line will replace a line from 1911 which has significant struc- tural problems. The proposed replacement of this line was pushed up due to the condi- tion as revealed when the line was inspected by cam- era, revealing severe struc- tural defects, a collapse and a sag in the line. It will be replaced by a 1200 mm trunk line that will run along Dracup. Other work that is necessary is expanded storm sewer work near York Road, where damage has caused sinkholes. Josh Mickleborough, man- ager of Engineering Services says that the bid received from G. Unger Construction was competitive, and since the company is holding the unit rates from the previous work and those rates are cost effective, the recommenda- tion was to go with a change order on the project. It also means the city would not have to worry about mobili- zation costs which would be estimated at $200,000. While the change order was passed due to the urgen- cy of the project, city council- lors were not pleased to approve it and were upset with the way the tendering process was handled. Councillor James Wilson questioned whether it might be practical to re-tender the project given the significant increase in the scope of the project. Mickleborough says that since the city has a contrac- tual obligation to honor the original work order the proj- ect can’t be completely re- tendered, and the unit rates are cost effective. “In the future, it would be more prudent if we captured this as a bigger project in general... Work every day with contractors, they love change orders.” Councillor Chris Wyatt is disappointed to see such a substantial increase in the scope of the project through the change order, and felt it was unprecedented. “This has never been done in my time, a change order of this magnitude.” Wyatt says that given the amount of engineering work and needs assessments that the city has been doing a sit- uation should not be happen- ing, and given the amount spent the priorities for the city should be known and the initial tenders should reflect the necessary scope. “I expected more so that you don’t have a surprise like this on a project of this size. I hope council shares that frustration because when you spend that money you expect stuff like this not to happen, because you’re plan- ning ahead.” The project was approved, however, because it was sim- ply necessary. The reason behind the approval, in spite of the misgivings of council, was best explained by coun- cillor Larry Pearen. “If you flush your toilet and it doesn’t go away, that’s a problem for all of us.” Quick fact: 16.7 cents from every tax dollar collected in The City of Yorkton goes towards Public Works, which includes drainage.

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The scope of one local sewer project in the city has increased dramatically. Initially planned to be storm system improvements near York Road, the project has now been expanded to include a new sewer trunk line on Dracup. This means a sub-stantial increase in budget which was approved at a recent meeting of city coun-cil. The change order to G. Ungar Construction will be $2,989,175, the bulk of which will be made up of a new sanitary sewer trunk line on Dracup Ave. This line will replace a line from 1911 which has significant struc-tural problems. The proposed replacement of this line was pushed up due to the condi-

tion as revealed when the line was inspected by cam-era, revealing severe struc-tural defects, a collapse and a sag in the line. It will be replaced by a 1200 mm trunk line that will run along Dracup. Other work that is necessary is expanded storm sewer work near York Road, where damage has caused sinkholes.

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

On June 12, 1914, Violet Janzen was born, and now she’s celebrat-ing her 100th birthday. She says that one thing for sure in her life is that everything has changed. Janzen, who lives in Yorkton, says that she does not have any great secret to a long life, but she says that she just keeps busy and takes life as it comes. She also says that whatever hap-pened in her life, she always tried to find joy

in things rather than dwell on the bad. “You have to keep happy, you have to stay happy and be thankful for what you’ve got, that was my attitude in life.” She emphasizes that it wasn’t an easy life. Born as one of ten kids, she says she and her family grew up without much money. It was especially difficult after her mother died. She wishes she had had a mother in her life. “I would have done anything to have a mother to love, and who would have loved me,

and we didn’t have that. That’s something I never had, and so I tried to give that to my family.” As a child her family couldn’t afford to buy nice clothes for every-one, and some of the kids would stay home from church or events because there just was not enough to wear. “Now, the stuff we would have loved to have, we don’t look at it, it’s a different world.” She also says pests were more common, and every house had a cat to help deal with the mice that would try to get in.

She still remembers a party where a mouse popped up from the pan-

try, causing all her guests to scream in ter-ror. Life has changed sig-nificantly, and Janzen says you can’t compare how she grew up to life today. She also says that she would never want to go back to the old days. She says it was much more difficult, and everything was much more difficult when she was young. “It sometimes scares you to think ‘how did we live through that?’” The big change is that technology has made everything much easier. Janzen can still remem-ber the first time she had running water, and as kids they played with

the taps until their dad came in and stopped them. “Everything is push button! There was no such thing. Even with running water, we had a barrel outside the house that the rainwater ran in and that was our water, there was no push button,” sherecalls. Still, she says it’s dif-ficult to keep up with the changes, whether it’s people growing up quickly or technology changing rapidly around her. Even if everything changes around her, Janzen says she’s happy to be living today in a much easier world than the one she grew up in.

Celebrating 100 years

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Violet Janzen, who turns 100 years old.

The Yorkton Transitional Homes for Youth is working to develop an emer-gency shelter for vulnerable youth who are at risk to become homeless. At a recent city council meeting, the City of Yorkton voted to support the initiative. The home is still a long way off, as it is still in the planning stages and has yet to receive all of the funding it needs, nor has a location for the eventual home been selected. However, Tom Seely with the Yorkton Housing Committee explains that the letter was needed to indicate community support in the proj-ect and make it easier for the project to seek funding from various different pro-

grams and sources. Ron Skinner with the Yorkton Housing Committee says that there is currently a gap in the community, as there is no shelter at present time for people who are homeless or in danger of becoming homeless. The Yorkton Housing Committee is supporting the project because of that gap, and Skinner says this project is in line with the city’s housing needs assessment. The group is still in the initial stages of doing needs assessments and plan-ning, but with the city behind the proj-ect it will be easier for them to move forward with it and continue to push towards its goal. City council voted to draft a letter of support for the project.

REMEMBERING D-DAY – The Royal Canadian Legion honored the 70th anni-versary of D-Day with a ceremonial parade on King Street, ending with a ceremony at the Yorkton City Cemetery to remember and honor the people who fought in the D-Day invasions, what they accomplished, and why they were there. Pictured above, Ed St. Pierre leads the parade.

Every year, the 15th of June marks World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, a special day that originat-ed in Canada and has flourished worldwide with the help of the World Health Organization. World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, as the name indicates, focuses on the abuse and neglect that older adults experi-ence and how it can be stopped or prevented. Abuse is a serious issue. It has been estimated that between 4 and 10 percent of Canadian seniors experience some form of abuse. No matter the shape it takes, wheth-er physical, emotional, or financial, abuse should never be tolerated. This day brings togeth-er individuals, communi-ties and organizations to exchange ideas and take appropriate action against the mistreatment of older people in commu-nities around the world. It is an opportunity for all Canadians to reflect on how elder abuse threatens the well-being of the seniors we love. The Government of Canada has made com-batting elder abuse a top priority. In addition to awareness activities, we provide funding through the New Horizons for Seniors Program to orga-nizations across Canada

for projects that address elder abuse. As well, further to the Protecting Seniors Act, we are making great strides to protect and empower older adults. For instance, we recently introduced in Parliament a bill on digital privacy, which will better protect seniors against fraud and financial abuse, as well as the Canadian Victims Bill of Rights, which gives those most vulnerable in society, such as seniors, the tools to be treated with dignity and respect by the legal system. Much of the abuse that targets seniors is finan-cial. As part of the aware-ness activities, the Federal/ Provincial/ Territorial Ministers Responsible for Seniors Forum recently released the Power of Attorney and Joint Bank Accounts brochure. This document highlights the risks, ben-efits and possible unin-tended consequences of opening a joint bank

account or granting someone a power of attor-ney. Seniors deserve to live with dignity and respect. Our government is com-mitted to helping make sure they lead the best possible life, entirely free of abuse. I encourage constituents to join oth-ers around the nation and world in observing World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Speaking openly about the problem with friends and family is one way to begin. The day is an excellent opportunity to connect with others, including seniors, and share infor-mation on how to counter abuse, neglect, and exploitation of older adults. Whether the effort is great or small, once a year or throughout, everyone can help make a long-lasting difference in the lives of seniors.

Ag. education plays a big role

What a truly sad story. No matter how the cookie crumbles, lives have been changed forever and there’s no going back. It was a beautiful, sunny, Sunday evening when 22-year-old Emma Czornobaj set out for a drive along a busy Quebec highway. All was normal until she spotted a family of ducks – mom, dad and babies – attempting to cross. Instincts must have kicked in and likely without thinking, she braked, no doubt abruptly. She also reportedly hopped out of her car to help make sure the ducks got across safely. What she didn’t see was the family on motor bikes behind her. A mom, a dad and a 16-year-old daughter who was on her fathers bike. They didn’t stop in time and struck Czornobaj’s car. Tragically, the dad and daughter did not survive. It’s four years later and Czornobaj is in court. She’s on trial for criminal negligence and two counts of dan-gerous driving causing death. It’s now up to the courts and a jury to decide “when a particular driver’s con-duct crosses that blurry line between that which is merely thoughtless, distracted or inept and behaviour that is wilfully reckless and subject to criminal pros-ecution.” At this point I have to admit, I have been in

Czornobaj’s shoes and I’ve done the exact same thing – once for a family of ducks and once for a family of raccoons. I brake for robins on the street and can’t stand the thought of it if I happen to hit a gopher on the highway. I can see, especially reading this story, how my actions could be dangerous, but would I do the same in the future?

Likely. As tragic as the events are that unfolded, Czornobaj is not a cold hearted killer. She’s going to live with the remorse of the events that transpired for the rest of her life. My heart goes out to her as I see the pain in her eyes in the news photos. Will jail time really make a difference? I think not. Understandably the victim’s family was devastated by what happened. Anyone would be. I would be. But even so, they don’t believe jail time is the answer. “She saw them die, both of them,” the lone survivor says. “You can punish her until she is 60 years old, but it won’t bring my family back.” And that is true. I don’t know what the answer is here. Maybe it’s a wake up call to be alert and cau-tious at all times when behind the wheel. There are no right answers. I feel for all involved and hope no jury ever has to hear a case like this again.

The way I see it...

Cats are carnivores. There is evidence to suggest that this is why we have domesticated cats in the first place. Cats and people from centuries ago entered into a partnership to get rid of pests and rodents, since cats like eating rodents like mice and people would rather not have mice in their homes. While they have eventu-ally made themselves cute and fluffy in order to fur-ther endear themselves to the people that surround them, being carnivorous is a key component of a cat’s existence. This is so key, in fact, that it turns out a cat that does not eat meat will get ill and die. An Australian couple found this out when they tried to make a vegan cat, feeding it no animal products at all. This natu-rally did not work, because without meat cats can’t actually live, there are components in meat that a cat’s body can’t produce on its own. As a result, the kitten was near death before being saved by a vet, an essen-tial component of that life-saving treatment being giv-ing the cat some meat that it needed. The couple who owned the cat didn’t want to give it animal products because it was against their own per-sonal beliefs. The problem with this is that their per-sonal beliefs run counter to the way the actual animal lives and what it needs to survive. It is impossible to be a vegan cat because over billions of years cats have

adapted to eat smaller animals. As a result, the cat’s body is adapted to expect most of its diet to consist of animals, there are dietary components that other ani-mals produce which a cat needs to live. It does not make sense for a cat to go vegan, for it is a born hunt-er. People can go vegan if they want to, of course, humans are omnivorous and as a result can go on a varied range of diets depending on what is available. The mistake people make is assuming that all animals are the same, and that what works for man can work for cats, dogs, or other creatures. After all, if a person can be healthy and happy on a vegan diet, why can’t a

cat? Well it’s the same basic reason you don’t really want to feed a cow chicken, it’s just not what the body is made to eat. Some animals, and cats are among them, have adapted to very specific diets and circumstances. If anything, a cat’s disinterest in most vegetables and plants is another big reason why it got domesticated in the first place. In the early days of agriculture, ani-mals like mice saw big piles of harvested grain and vegetables and thought they were a bountiful food source. People, however, did not want mice eating them. Cats would eat the mice, not the grain, all for a warm place to sleep and a scratch behind the ears. The relationship between man and beast was made possi-ble because it’s exclusively carnivorous. We have gone far from those origins, of course. Better home construction, improved sanitation and more advanced pest control ensures mice are not as big a problem. However, cats are still carnivores, and they still need meat to survive, even if their natural hunting instincts are reserved more for laser pointers than they are for actual animals. To try to change that is to try to go against their basic biology. Yes, a vegan might want to be a friend to creatures great and small, but those creatures are not friends to each other, and it’s more cruel to deny one what it needs.

It’s a huge component of our history and fibre of our make up, so it just makes sense to keep the awareness of that fact and ensure the youth of today understand the importance and appreciate far into the future. Earlier this week Federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz and Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart announced a new $1 million five-year funding agreement with Agriculture in the Classroom Saskatchewan (AITC-SK). “Our government understands the importance agriculture plays in rural and urban com-munities and in Saskatchewan as a whole,” says Ritz. “By understanding modern agricul-ture, young people will value Saskatchewan-made products and recognize the importance of the industry to the regional, national and global economies.” “Agriculture in the Classroom plays an important role in help-ing students connect with agri-culture,” Stewart adds. Greater public awareness about agriculture is necessary for the continued growth of the industry and to help attract youth, innovation and invest-ment. A vibrant agriculture industry contributes to a strong provincial economy and this leads to a better quality of life for all citizens. Our future lies in the hands of today’s youth, the better we can educate and guide them, the better the future for all.

THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, June 12, 2014 - Page 5A

To the Editor:

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau was in Regina last week with a jam-packed agenda. The key event was a major economic speech be-fore a big audience of the Regina & District Chamber of Commerce and Saskatchewan’s Young Professionals & Entrepreneurs. He also attended the Lieutenant-Governor’s ceremony marking the 70th anniversary of D-Day, paid tribute to the fallen Mounties in New Brunswick, met with Mayor Mike Fougere and University Presi-dent Vianne Timmons, spoke with represen-tatives of Treaty Four First Nations, hosted a reception for the gener-al public, and spent two energetic evenings at Regina’s “Mosaic” mul-ticultural festival. Justin showed him-self to be a knowledge-able, articulate, capable individual with the sub-stance and stamina that leadership demands. He also demonstrated his amazing capacity – unique among all Party leaders – to engage and motivate people to become part of the “change for the better” that most Canadians so desperately want in public life. Like no one else, he can rally peo-ple! In his speech about the economy, Justin melded the twin priorities of strong fiscal manage-ment and a prosperous middle-class. To have

both, Canada needs an agenda for sustained and sustainable eco-nomic growth – which is what this country is not getting from the Harper Conservatives who are exclusively fixated on slashing the Govern-ment of Canada at the expense of everything else.

That’s why veterans are being neglected, public infrastructure is in decline, retirement incomes are inadequate and insecure, a majority of middle-class families worry about the high cost of higher education and fear their kids may not do as well as their parents did. Justin laid out five big economic priorities that a new Government of Canada will need to get right: • Investments in people – meaning bet-ter access to post-secondary education (universities, colleges, technical schools, ap-prenticeships, on-the-job up-skilling, etc.) and a new relationship around Aboriginal edu-cation. He also called for urgent corrections

in the Temporary For-eign Workers Program which has run so badly amuck on the Conserva-tives’ watch, and more emphasis on provincial Immigrant Nominee Programs which offer clear pathways to citi-zenship. • Foreign Direct In-vestment and Trade –

the Harper government talks a lot about trade agreements, but they still don’t have a sin-gle major deal actually done yet, and Canada’s trade balance is mostly in deficit. Export trade is critical to a province like Saskatchewan. At the bottom-line, export-ing sectors pay 50% higher wages than those that are not trade intensive. • Natural Resources and the Environment – Canada needs a smart “marriage” between the economy and the envi-ronment. Canadians don’t want to be told they have to pick one or the other. They want both. Environmental in-tegrity will be critical to building the consensus necessary for valuable development projects to

succeed. Mr. Harper’s total lack of environ-mental credibility has been a key factor in stalling the Keystone-XL pipeline. • Innovation – the Government of Canada must help build strong scientific platforms across the country, like the Synchrotron “light source” in Saskatche-wan and the Petroleum Technology Research Centre in Regina. Such investments in home-grown “brainpower” are crucial to growth, com-petitiveness and pro-ductivity. • Public Infrastruc-ture – Canada needs transformative federal leadership in building the infrastructure nec-essary to underpin a vibrant, national 21st century economy. It is foolish public policy to cut, stall and convolute federal support sys-tems, like the “Building Canada Fund” which Mr. Harper has chopped this year by 87%. Fed-eral infrastructure in-vestments should be moving up, not down. Justin’s agenda is strong and substan-tive. So is his commit-ment to transparency, accountability and value-for-money in all federal operations, and his determination to keep above the slander in Conservative or NDP attack-ads. Canadians are increasingly thirsty for that kind of positive leadership.

To the Editor:

University of Florida Linguist M.J. Hardman tells us (“Language and War,” 2002) that “Language is inseparable from humanity and follows us in all our works. Language is the instrument with which we form thought and feel-ing, mood, aspiration, will and act[ion], the instrument by whose means we in-fluence and are influenced…” It is not surprising then that lan-guage has always been a crucially im-portant weapon of war. Delivered with convincing rhetorical flare, language has driven ordinary citizens to heroic acts of self-sacrifice in defense of their countries, while pushing others to un-speakable acts of barbarism. And now language tricks are being used to justify the unjustifiable in the Obama administration’s war on coal, America’s least expensive and most abundant energy source. Over and over we are told ‘climate change is real,’ ‘we owe it to future generations to stop cli-mate change’ and ‘97 per cent of scien-tists agree.’ Even non-experts are starting to rec-ognize that these assertions are mean-ingless or simply unproven. Climate change, at times far more severe than anything seen in humanity’s short history, has been ‘real’ for billions of years. No one knows if human activity has become a major factor influenc-ing it today or that we could have a measurable impact on future climate states. And despite the popular notion that a meaningful consensus exists among experts about this question, such an agreement has never been demonstrated. Although the impact of these lan-guage tricks is gradually diminishing among educated people, other equally misleading phraseology is coming to the fore. One in particular has become so entrenched that even those who op-pose fashionable thinking on climate change use it without thinking. We are told we must reduce ‘carbon emissions,’ or, worse, ‘carbon pollu-tion,’ a phrase used eight times by President Obama when promoting his Clean Power Plan in last Saturday’s brief address. When formally announc-ing the plan on Monday, Environmen-tal Protection Agency administrator Gina McCarthy referenced ‘carbon pollution’ eight times in the first seven minutes of her presentation. But carbon is a solid, naturally oc-curring, non-toxic element found in all living things. Carbon forms thousands of compounds, much more than any other element. Everything from medi-cines to trees to oil to our own bod-ies and those of all other creatures are made of carbon compounds. Pure carbon occurs in nature mainly in only two forms: graphite and dia-monds, neither of which are floating around in the atmosphere let alone be-ing discharged from the smokestacks of coal-fired generating stations. There is one form of pure carbon important to control and that is soot, the emissions of which no longer constitute a prob-lem in the United States or Canada.

War on coal

To the Editor: Saskatchewan Pre-mier Brad Wall has re-peatedly promised that his Government would not privatize any of Sas-katchewan’s current Li-quor stores!!! Yet, here he is doing exactly that. The four stores in Ituna, Langenburg, Ker-robert and Ponteix will be shut down in the next few months. These

stores employed four full-time and eight part-time SLGA employees who have children attending local schools; they sup-port local business and pay local taxes. The Na-tional Union of Public and General Employees (NUPGE) report these four stores also gener-ated over $900,000.00 NET income in 2012-13 (which goes to public cof-fers).

NUPGE also reports that since Alberta liquor stores were privatized, Alberta has forgone $1.5 billion in tax revenue alone, while prices of beer, wine and spirits had the highest price on 11 of 13 products sur-veyed. According to SGEU stats, last year, $218 mil-lion was returned to the public coffers from liquor sales alone. In the past

fi ve years, public liquor stores contributed over $1 billion to the province. This is NET profi t and does not include taxes levied on alcohol sales. Small wonder that Premier “Pinocchio” wants to turn this lucra-tive business over to his friends. Shades of Grant Devine

Justin’s economic growth plan

“Such investments in homegrown

“brainpower” are crucial to growth, competitiveness and productivity.”

To the Editor:

The National General Elec-tions of both 2006 and 2011 won by the Conservative Party Cana-da (CPC) were followed by inves-tigations of wrongdoing by the Commissioner of Elections. Arising from actions during the 2006 Election the CPC pleaded guilty to the “In and Out Scan-dal”, exceeding evidence election spending limits and submitting fraudulent election records. The Commissioner of Canada Elections investigation and a tri-al regarding the 2011 Canadian federal election voter suppression scandal (also known as the Robo-call scandal, Robogate, or Robo-Con) determined the most likely source of the information used to make misleading calls was the CIMS database maintained and controlled by the Conservative

Party of Canada. These fi ndings and the current trial of Michael Sona all were lim-ited due to inability to determine ‘the list of people who had access to this database.” The data base being CPC CIMS data base. “the party’s investigator, lawyer Ar-thur Hamilton, instructed party workers not to discuss the events during the Elections Canada in-vestigation of the Conservative Party headquarters. Inability on the part of the of the Commissioner of Elections to compel witness testimony when investigating elections law viola-tions a power that is exercised by the majority of provincial and ter-ritorial elections watchdogs - is unjust. It contributed directly to there being inconclusive evidence in the investigation of misdeeds during the 2011 Election. Though the ability to seek a

court order to compel testimony was among recommendations by Elections Canada and the Com-missioner it has been ignored. Indeed, rather than increasing than the capability of the Com-missioner to investigate wrong doing, the Offi ce with the pas-sage of Bill C-23 into law would no longer be within the political-ly impartial domain of Elections Canada but rather within a de-partment subject to infl uence by the government of the day. This decrease rather than the necessary increase in the pow-ers of the Offi ce responsible for ensuring elections are fairly con-ducted and other matters neces-sitate ensuring there is a court challenge to the constitutionality of Bll C-23 should it become law.

People who are caught driving impaired or en-gaging in other high risk driving behaviours including cellphone use will face tougher vehicle seizure consequences when new traffi c safety laws come into effect June 27. “We believe harsher penalties, including the inconvenience of being without a vehicle for several days, will deter people from choosing to drive while impaired, or using a cellphone,” says Andrew Cartmell, President and CEO of SGI. New consequences for impaired/distracted driving include: • Drivers impaired by either alcohol or drugs will face immedi-ate roadside vehicle sei-zures that increase in severity from three to 14 days, depending on driver experience and the number of previous offences. • Drivers being charged with exceeding .08 blood alcohol con-tent (BAC) or refusing a breath test will have their vehicle seized for up to 60 days. • Drivers caught us-ing their cellphone while driving for the second time within one year will have their ve-hicle seized for up to seven days. • Drivers caught for other distracted driv-ing offences (such as personal grooming, eat-ing, etc.) for the third time within one year will have their vehicle seized for up to seven

days. Vehicle seizures will range from three to 60 days, depending on the number of previous of-fences on the driver’s record. The vehicle being driven at the time of the offence is the one that will be seized, re-gardless of whether the offender is the regis-tered owner or not. Vehicle seizures will also apply for the fol-lowing high-risk offenc-es: • Driving as a learner while unaccompanied (for three days on a sec-ond or subsequent of-fence within one year) • Driving an unregis-tered vehicle (for seven days on a second or sub-sequent offence within one year) • Stunting (for three days on a second or sub-sequent offence within one year) • Exceeding the speed limit by more than dou-ble the speed (for seven days on a second or sub-sequent offence within one year) • Exceeding the speed limit by more than 50 km/h (for seven days on each offence) • Contest of speed or race with other vehicles (for 30 days on each of-fence) • Failing to stop for a peace offi cer (for seven days on each offence) • All Criminal Code charges which consti-tute an offence under the Traffi c Safety Act (for 30 days on each of-fence). “Distracted driving

and excessive speed are high-risk driving behaviours that lead to collisions,” says Cart-mell. “In fact, along with impaired driving, they make up the top con-

tributing factors in fa-tal crashes in our prov-ince.” For more information regarding all upcom-ing traffi c law changes, visit SGI’s website at www.sgi.sk.ca.

What Obama and McCarthy were really talk-ing about is one specific compound of carbon, namely carbon dioxide (CO2). Ignoring the oxygen atoms and calling CO2 ‘carbon’ makes about as much sense as ignoring the oxygen in water vapor (H2O), the major greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, and calling it ‘hydrogen’. This is not merely an academic point but is part of the way language has been distorted to bolster concerns about human-caused climate change. Calling CO2 ‘carbon’ encourages people to think of the gas as ‘pollution’ or something ‘dirty’, like graphite or soot. Calling CO2 by its proper name would help people remember that, regardless of its influence on climate (a point of intense debate in the climate science com-munity), it is really an invisible gas essential to plant photosynthesis and so all life.

The ongoing war on coal

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The annual Landscape and Memory show is again at the Godfrey Dean, bringing the best work from local artists together for the month of June. The show opened to a full house at the gal-lery, and executive director Don Stein says it might be the best year so far. “The work is so strong and so diverse. There are some very accomplished pieces here,” Stein says. The show is a real mix of people through the community, with a wide spectrum of ages, styles and mediums represented. It also showcases some well known local artists as well as others who have never shown in the gallery before.

“It’s one of the really striking things about the show, there are so many people who you are intro-duced to that you didn’t know,” Stein says. The variety is another high-light, with people working through a wide cross section of different styles and forms. Stein says that he’s personally happy to see paint-ing make a resurgence in the show, but that he’s also glad to see such a wide spectrum of mediums being embraced, whether it’s crafts like gloves or the highly detailed wood carvings of Walter Oucharek. The success of the Landscape and Memory shows are and indi-cation that this is something that the community needs, Stein says. “It’s so important for the gallery to have this commitment to the community, but at the same time

the need is so clear and the com-munity is so prolific and there’s so much strength in it there needs to be an outlet for it to be shown. That makes me think that it’s both healthy for the community, but that the gallery is also being a responsible citizen and opening the doors so the community is being engaged.” The show is also important in helping artists develop, as it pro-vides an opportunity for people to meet, discuss their work and learn from each other. Stein says that the wide range of ages both in the show and observing are also a highlight, because it shows that the city has a healthy art commu-nity that can continue to grow into the future. Landscape and Memory runs for the month of June. Admission is free.

Community Event.

COOL DOG – Hi there, my name’s Loki. I’m a two and a half year old neutered male lab cross. I’m pretty low key and calm, though I’m always thrilled to go on an adventure outside. If you’ve got a loving, responsible family I’d make a great addition. To learn more come visit the SPCA or call 306-783-4080.

GIVING BACK – In spite of the miserable weather that day, the local RE/MAX Blue Chip Realty group held a successful CHILDREN’S MIRACLE NETWORK hot dog sale, raising over $2,200.00 for the cause. Doug Jonassen, Marketing Manager for RE/MAX Blue Chip Realty says the initiative is an annual event and that it’s a worthwhile cause the branch is pleased to support.

Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This one of a series on getting set-tled in Hazel Dell. I’m still batching it! I had to stay home while Marion looked after our granddaughter, because I had to attend at my booth in the Preeceville Trade Show. Roland Larsen a writer and cowboy clown joined me in the booth promoting his children’s book, CD and DVD. We also had Harold Fenske’s book Riverlore available if anybody would want to buy it. The books had varies themes, from humour as in The Heedless Norseman, local Saskatchewan his-tory as described in Riverlore and a whole-some children’s story in Roland’s book about Peanut the miniature horse. Shelley Minato who illustrated Roland’s book also joined us on Saturday. Across from our booth was a booth displaying women’s clothing, and in front of the booth was a mannequin wear-ing women’s casual dressy clothing. The staff in the booth would change the clothing from time to time, caus-ing some young male strolling by to make a double take almost twisting his head off, as the top garment of the mannequin would slide off while they were try-ing to change the cloth-ing, exposing the man-nequin’s now uncovered milk containers! Roland and I had great success at the trade show, and we will probably be back again next year. I’ll have my second book available for sure then. Being that I was already in Preeceville close to sup-per time, I decided to drop in to Vesela’s International Kitchen

for a hearty meal, and make sure that I get the Apple Strudel des-sert. Of course they serve you this home baked sliced and very tasty bun as an appe-tizer, and then a won-derful entrée of Chicken Cacciatore, followed by their signature Apple Strudel. Yum – yum! Looking outside at the snow still falling, I thought that perhaps we should change that old saying April Showers Bring May Flowers to read April Snow Brings May Overflow, as in flooded basements. Marion is coming home tomorrow, and having been a bachelor for about a week, I should better get the house in shape! The dust and vacuum was a cinch, but sweeping the floor while leaning on a cane is very difficult, so I asked Lady our dog to help me. She’s a very smart dog, but she also had a problem holding on to the broom with one paw and the dust pan in the other. She just looked at me and her eyes were saying: “Sorry! No can do!” We came to the conclusion that she could use her tail to sweep the floor, and I would either lift the rug or try to get it into the dust pan. We divided the kitchen floor into wag zones. I had measured her tail which is all of 12 inches long, accounted for 180 degree movement, and that then equalled the top half of an eight inch square. She would sit on the floor and I would hold a treat in front of her nose. The tail would be wagging and sweeping at the same time. When I tried to go around to her to the tail to gather up the dust, she kept moving with me while still sitting and wag-ging thereby sweeping

the floor in an eight inch circle! OK, let’s try this again. I asked her to sit and she cocked her head looking at me with eyes that said: “Again? It didn’t work the first time!” She reluctantly sat down, but didn’t wag her tail! I held the treat in front of her, and she just sat there looking at me with an expression like you gotta be kidding me! Well, so much for that. Marion is coming home

in the evening when it is dark, so I guess I’ll just trip the breaker and pretend we have a power outage, that way she won’t see all the dust on the floor! I just got off the phone with our friend Lynn, who lives by Rockford. She said that since early this morning the snow has been nearly waist high and is still falling. The tempera-ture is dropping way below minus 25 and the north wind is increas-

ing to near gale force. Her husband Roland has done nothing; he is just standing there staring through the kitchen window. She says that if it gets much worse, she just may have to let him in. The Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo, Norway is filled with nude sculptures. Sculptures of a nude man and a nude woman are mounted at the end of a bridge, and have been facing each other for over a hundred years. One day a magi-cian approached them and with a single ges-ture, brought them to life. The magician told them: “As a reward for being so patient through a hundred blazing sum-mers and dismal win-ters, I will give you both life for thirty minutes, for you to do what you’ve wished to do the most all these years.” The man sculpture which had come to life, looked at the female sculpture, which had also come to life and she looked at him. Then they grabbed each oth-

er’s hands and went running behind some shrubbery. The magi-cian waited patiently as the bushes rustled and giggling ensued. After fifteen minutes, the two returned, out of breath and laughing. The magician told them, “Um, you have fifteen minutes left, would you care to do it again?” He asked her “Shall we?” She eagerly replied, “Oh, yes, let’s! But let’s change posi-tions. This time, I’ll hold the pigeon down and you poop on its head.”

MOVING ON – Parkland College recently held its annual graduation ceremony at St. Mary’s Cultural Centre in Yorkton to congratulate and celebrate 327 students who successfully completed one of more than 20 programs offered at the College in 2013-14.

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

It will soon be possible to fish in the City of Yorkton. The Logan Green Fish Pond was stocked with 750 rainbow trout recently, which completes the Logan Green Water Management System and allows for a unique recre-ation opportunity. The fish pond is the eventual destination of water that makes it way

through the backwash water settling ponds. This is the final phase of the $33 million water treatment project, which has already several awards for the city for its innovative, environmen-tally friendly use of back-wash water to create a green space within the city. The fish pond part of the project was in part-nership between the City of Yorkton, the Assiniboine Watershed

Stewardship Association and both the Saskatchewan and Yorkton Wildlife Federations. Adam Matichuk with the Sask Wildlife Federation, says that it’s an opportunity for the city, as there is now a bit of nature in the City of Yorkton, with the fishery being built where they was none before. The pond is strictly catch and release. Barbed hooks are not allowed, nor is live bait. All fishing must be done from the shore, as well use is restricted to daylight hours. As well, given that there is constant move-ment of water into the pond, ice fishing will not be allowed in winter. Matichuk says that the choice of rainbow trout was because it is a spe-cies that does well in ponds and should be well adapted to the environ-ment at Logan Green. While the fish are in the pond, he says that eager fishers should wait for a bit to allow the fish to grow, but that the pond should be ready this sum-mer. The project remains a bit of an experiment, and Matichuk says that they will be monitoring the water temperature in the pond closely all summer as that is the biggest con-cern for the well being of the fish. “We’re hoping that the fish do well in here and grow quickly, and provide a great fishing opportu-nity for the people.

Fish are stocked

LOGAN GREEN is now stocked with fish, and this summer residents will be able to take advantage of the fishing opportunities within the city. Pictured above, Adam Matichuk with the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation shows the fish that will be stocked in the pond.

THE PAINTED HAND CASINO Pow Wow has entered its 14th year and this year was another great year for the event. See more on Page 11.

ALL-TERRAIN DOUBLE CAB SHOWN

BEST NEW PICKUP †*

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

The Painted Hand Casino Pow Wow has entered its 14th year, and Charles Ryder, General Manager of the Painted Hand Casino, says that this year has been another great year for the event. Ryder says that the event is part of an overall growth of Pow Wows in the province, and that the overall trend is seeing an higher caliber of dancers and drummers at each event. Ryder says that the more dancing and

drumming he sees over the week-end, the more impressed he is by the level they are at. Ryder adds, the casino hosts the event to give back to the com-munity, and to keep culture alive and relevant, especially for the youth. That is reflected in the theme of the 2014 event, “Honouring our Youth,” and Ryder says that the youth was the focus of the programming overall. Ryder says that it’s the youth that keep a culture going. The Pow Wow exists as one of the ways the Painted Hand gives back, Ryder explains, and it

takes a significant percentage of the casino staff to hold the event and keep it running. He says that they will continue because of the need to support culture in the community. “Why we do it is to host and honour our culture to the com-munity, to the surrounding com-munities, to visitors, First Nations and non-First Nations. Give back to them because they also support us, so we support them with our culture and show-ing them our culture and celebra-tions. Also having people meet is a good time for us.”

YORKTON ATHLETES EARN TRACK GOLD AT PROVINCIALS – Jonah Sutter (middle left) was one of three local athletes to win goldat the 2014 SHSAA Track and Field Provincial Championship in Moose Jaw. For full results see Page 14.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

After a promising 2-1 start to the 2014 Western Major Baseball League season things were looking up for the Yorkton Cardinals going into the bulk of their early June schedule, a slate that included two home games against their division rivals and defending league champion Melville Million-aires. Manager Bill Sobkow gave Jamie Whitehead the ball as the Cardinals Home Opener starter to face the Mil-lionaires who came to Yorkton moti-vated by the chance of revenge after the Cards spoiled their Opening Night as league champs the week before. That motivation led to a barrage of hits on Whitehead in the fi rst inning as the Melville bats were red hot in the top of the fi rst, more than ruining the atmosphere on Opening Night at Ju-bilee Park as eight runs were scored before the hosts even stepped to the plate. Not to be deterred the Cardinals ac-tually put up a good fi ght throughout the home opener despite the early col-lapse, shutting out the Mils for the rest of the game as Whitehead regained

his composure before Codi Scanlon helped out in relief after Whitehead pitched six innings of shutout ball to get through seven innings in his 2014 home debut. The turnaround on the mound al-lowed Yorkton to build a rally effort starting in the bottom of the third where the Cardinals would get half of the defi cit back in a four run inning thanks to RBI’s from a familiar face in veteran Georgie Santiago. Yorkton would get two more runs in the sixth in-ning, but would enter the bottom of the ninth in need of at least two runs to keep their hopes of winning their home opener alive and send the fans at Jubi-lee Park home happy. The Cardinals would mount a rally, cashing in a runner on a sacrifi ce fl y from Santiago but couldn’t get the second run after going down to their last out to lose in a 8-7 defeat that was a tale of one half inning spoiling an impres-

sive debut from the 2014 Cardinals on their home diamond. A fact that had coach John McVey thinking positive, especially crediting the way the team and their starting pitcher calmed down after an unfortunate early meltdown.

Cards in slump in second week of season

After a successful 2014 East Central Districts Track Meet determined the athletes from the Parkland area who would be repre-senting Team East Central at the 2014 Saskatchewan High School Athletics Asso-ciation Track and Field Pro-vincial Championship ath-letes from both the Yorkton Regional and Sacred Heart High School earned provin-cial glory as three local ath-letes earned gold medals. The provincial meet which was held in Moose Jaw saw Yorkton student athletes win three golds, three sil-vers, and seven bronze med-als in what went down as a

successful end to the 2014 track seasons for both the Saints and the Raiders. Yorkton Regional’s suc-cess came in the distance running events as Jaden Porte took Senior Boys gold in the 800 meter race while Cole Burkholder won the Junior Boys 1500 meter event to give the Raiders two provincial champions. Jonah Sutter was the Saints provincial champion as he won Midget Boys long jump while David Ojo would achieve Sacred Heart’s lone silver medal by fi nishing second in the Junior Boys Discus. Burkholder fi nished sec-ond in the Junior Boys 800 meters for the Raiders silver medal while members of the

Raiders track team also fea-tured on the East Central 4 X 400 meter relay team that earned a silver medal. Other notable athletes included Sacred Heart’s Justine Zarowny who was Yorkton’s highest fi nishing female athlete at Provin-cials, earning double bronze in the Midget Girls 1500 and 3000 meters as once again Yorkton showed its dominance in the distance events amongst the best runners in Saskatchewan. Bronze medals from Porte, Kelli Onda-Inglis (Sacred Heart), and Derek Camp-bell (YRHS) gave the city a total of eight medals in the distance running events, an impressive feat achieved between the two local high

schools. SHHS track coach Rachel Sterzuk was proud of the way her athletes performed at the event. “was really proud of how hard all of our athletes worked this week-end,” says Sterzuk. “Justine has such a high pain toler-ance in her long distance races; it is really amazing how hard she can run. She had personal best times in all four of her races. Da-vid also had a personal best throw in order to bring home his silver medal and Jonah’s long jump was just head and shoulders above the second place fi nisher. Just exciting competition all weekend.”

NINE YHRS RAIDERS MAKE 2014 ROUGHRIDER BOWL ROSTER- After a winter layoff following another MJHSFL Championship Game appearance, nine YRHS Raiders football players cracked the 2014 Roughrider Bowl roster of some of the best young football players in the province.

Cont. from Page 12.

“That is something we will have to learn as a team to work through in limiting the big innings but other than that first inning where things got a little out of con-trol I felt the guys buckled down and played a solid baseball game tonight,” says McVey who returned as coach after filling the role last season.

“Whitehead pitched a qual-ity start after giving up all those runs and saved our bullpens arms as well as let-ting us work our way back into the game with some shutout baseball but we couldn’t quite get there in the end despite a good effort,” laments the coach on a tough loss.

Playing in a compressed June schedule the Cardinals would have to make the trip down the highway to Regina on Saturday in between weekend games with the Millionaires, sandwiching a Saturday night road affair in between their “homestand” making life more difficult.

The extra travel didn’t appear to be a problem in the early innings Yorkton would answer back from an early 1-0 Red Sox lead by scoring three runs of their own in the top of the second to start off with some needed

momentum as they attempt-ed to snap a three game los-ing streak. Yorkton’s bats would give starter Jeff Pool one more run for a cushion in the top of the fourth, but Pool would exit the game in the sixth after allowing two runs in

his final inning of work as costly errors allowed the Red Sox to rally back to a 4-3 score after six innings. In the seventh reliever Max Chadsey would undo the Cardinals early work as the bullpen failed to finish the job on the road at Currie

Field as the Red Sox scored three runs for the second straight inning to take a 6-4 win and continue Yorkton’s losing streak in three con-secutive close losses that were all down to the wire with the Cards falling just short.

On Sunday the Cardinals poor luck for the week con-tinued as Mother Nature even gave Yorkton a bad bounce as the weather coop-erated during their Sunday afternoon meeting with Melville at Jubilee Park just long enough for the Mils to score four runs in the top of the fourth before the game was ultimately called off after five innings in what was ruled as a 4-0 win for Melville in a rain shortened defeat for the fourth straight loss since their 2-1 opening weekend. Yorkton will have a golden opportunity to turn things around this weekend as the Cardinals will play three home games over the course of Thursday-Sunday when they play the Edmonton Prospects twice with a game against the Weyburn Beavers separating the weekend series between Edmonton and Yorkton. Sitting at 2-5 on the sea-son it is clear that Yorkton will have intentions of mak-ing the most of their first true homestand this week-end, but will need to find a way to close the deal as the late innings haven’t went their way as of late. If the Cards can put together nine inning performances this weekend a turnaround is likely.

Cards look to shake off home struggles

CARDS SWEPT BY MILS AT HOME- An eight run top of the first on Friday night foiled the Cardinals home opener against the Melville Millionaires before the East Division rivals scored a second win in Yorkton Sunday thanks to a rain shortened 4-0 win after five innings. Yorkton looks to turn things around this weekend against Edmonton.

Page 15: Yorkton News Review June 12, 2014

Thursday marks the start of the world’s greatest sporting event as the World Cup be-gins in Brazil with 32 countries looking to win what is the most prized trophy in world sports. For Canadians who love hockey and like to poke fun of football/soccer the World Cup is a time to break out those same stupid jokes that have been fl oating around the internet for nearly 15 years now about how it is a sport for wussies and how players dive and fake injuries, ignor-ing the constant diving and faking of injuries in the Stanley Cup to do so. However for the rest of the world the World Cup stops everything and becomes the big-gest event since well, the last World Cup and this year’s tournament should be a historic one. Despite FIFA’s cor-ruption along with the Brazil government ig-noring the poverty of a large number of its citi-zens to host the event and the protests that have stemmed from it, the on-pitch quality of this tournament should once again be top class. From Brazil and Ar-gentina trying to outdo each other for South American bragging rights to the European powerhouses trying to end their South Ameri-can curses there will be high drama this month that sports fans will all likely eventually cave in to watching regardless of their feelings towards the sport. Whether you think football is a reli-gion or you think it is “boring and for wusses” here is what you need to know about each group in the 2014 World Cup.

Group A

Brazil Croatia Mexico Cameroon

A group that would be extremely interesting if many didn’t feel Bra-zil automatically has one of the two knockout round spots in the bag should produce some great matchups from countries all around the globe as Group A has representatives from South America, North America, Europe and Africa’s top countries. Outside of the hosts, Croatia, Mexico or Cam-eroon all could realisti-cally make the knockout stages as all three have world class talent along with good results in the lead up to the World Cup during the many exhibition “friendlies” that have served as a preseason of sorts. Croatia will be the favorites to advance

thanks to star Real Ma-drid midfi elder Luka Modric, but missing top striker Mario Mandzu-kic for the start of the tournament thanks to a red card in their fi nal qualifi er and playing Brazil fi rst will put them behind a potential win-ner of Mexico/Cameroon on points. This group will likely come down to results other than in the Brazil matches, but if any of the three un-derdogs can upset Bra-zil it should push them through to the knockout rounds.

Prediction: Brazil/Mexico advance

Group B

Spain Netherlands Chile Australia

2010’s fi nalists in Spain and Holland will square off on Friday in what is a weird draw that pits the two best nations from the last World Cup in the same group. Spain actually have the most diffi cult draw in Group B as they will play the Netherlands in the WC 2010 Final rematch be-fore taking on South American sleepers Chile who fi nished qualifying on a 5-0-1 streak while their main competition in the group get to face punching bag Austra-lia. If Spain fail to get points against either two countries in their fi rst matches there is a chance the defend-ing World Cup champi-ons don’t even see the knockout stages, a crazy but possible thought.

Prediction: Nether-lands/Chile advance

Group C

Colombia Greece Ivory CoastJapan

Another stacked group that could go many ways pits four coun-tries that have tasted success in the mod-ern era but have never been able to do so at a World Cup. Colombia famously bottoming out in 1994, Greece winning the 2002 Euro Cup and both Ivory Coast/Japan having “Golden Genera-tions” who haven’t got over the hump in the big stage. In a group where any-thing can happen, look for the Greeks to be a tough out as their repu-tation for being able to prevent opponents from scoring will be tough to handle if not leading to some boring matches.

Prediction: Ivory Coast/Greece ad-vance

Group D

Uruguay Italy England Costa Rica

A group that ensures one historical European powerhouse or a South American favorite bow out early could fall down to the health of Liv-erpool strike Luis Su-arez, who is Uruguay’s star player coming off a knee cartilage surgery. With England already drawing Ecuador and Honduras in friendlies, a slowed down Suarez provides their only hope of not being sent home early from Brazil.

Predictions: Italy/England advance

Group E

Switzerland

France Ecuador Honduras

France are heavy favor-ites to make quick work of what many consider to be a weaker group, but Ecuador and Honduras showed England that they will not be intimi-dated under climates that suit both countries that are used to the type of heat that will be experienced in Brazil. Something that might foil a Swiss side that is long on quality from the German Bundesliga, but could fall victims to the elements against under-rated Ecuador/Hondu-ras teams. In Group E, Honduras could be the Wild Card as their willingness to do whatever it takes to win could frustrate op-ponents enough to steal the fi nal knockout spot.

Prediction: France/Honduras advance

Group F

Argentina Bosnia and Herze-govina Iran Nigeria

Argentina are a lock to get out of a group that luckily enough might be the weakest of all, while Bosnia should take the second knockout round spot quite easily on the back of Manchester City strike Edin Dzeko.

Predictions: Argen-tina/B&H advance

Group G

GermanyPortugal Ghana USA

The toughest group to predict pits four coun-tries who likely wish they could have landed in Group F or Group G as the “Group of Death” label has been split by this group and Group D for quite some time based on the loaded quality in the group. Despite battling in-juries to some star players, Germany are

Europe’s best hope of a World Cup winner in Brazil and should ad-vance, leaving Cristia-no Ronaldo’s Portugal, African giants Ghana and the always scrap-py Americans to fi ght for the other knockout round spot. Nothing is a guarantee in this group and getting a draw out of Germany might be the decider of fates in a group where many will feel it is a shame any country had to be elimi-nated early.

Prediction: Germany/USA advance.

Group H

Belgium Russia AlgeriaSouth Korea

Belgium are the po-tential darlings of the World Cup and should show why in a group that should present lit-tle challenge for them, but an injury to Russia’s Shirokov has opened the door for both Alge-ria and South Korea to steal the second spot in what is to be quite hon-est a boring group.

Prediction: Belgium/South Korea advance
