Highway expansion makes room for growthBy SHANNON DEVEAUN-R Writer
Despite the strong opposition of one local couple, the province has officially opened a new seg-ment of highway just west of the city. Another portion of the esti-mated $14 million Yorkton West Truck Route Project offi-cially opened to traffic last Thursday – now known as Highway 52A – and will make travel easier for motorists and shippers. “It’s good to see truck traffic now able to use this route, which supports local canola crushing facilities, the agricul-tural sector, the province’s export-based economy and the Saskatchewan Advantage,” said Yorkton MLA Greg Ottenbreit
onsite Thursday for a sign unveiling event. “With both phases now open, it’ll help relieve truck traffic around Yorkton, reduce traffic con-gestion and improve safety.” The $5.4 million Highway 52A project – also known as Phase 2 of the Yorkton West Truck Route Project – saw a six kilometre long bypass built to connect Highway 16 and Grain Millers Drive to Highway 52. Turning lanes were also built. Construction of Phase 2 began in October 2010. Final cleanup work in the ditches is expected to be finished during the 2012 con-struction season, depending on weather. Truckers and both canola crushing plant operators are pleased with the completion
and the new opening. “LDM Foods wishes to con-gratulate the provincial govern-ment on the opening of this
highway project, as it will be of great benefit to our employees, our company and the local com-munity,” Canadian Oil Seeds,
LDM Foods Vice President Brian Conn comments. “We also want to acknowledge our ongo-ing good working relationship
with the local levels of gov-ernment that contributes to our success.” “One of the key factors in building a world-class canola crushing facility here in Yorkton was having good access to main highways, which allows for safe, effi-cient transportation of people and goods to and from the facility,” Richardson Assistant Vice-President – Operations Darrell Sobkow adds. “The opening of Highway 52A cer-tainly enhances that access
and we appreciate the provin-cial government’s investment in transportation infrastructure.” Not happy with the recent
announcement are Boyd and Rhonda Bailey, a local couple who reside on the north side of Highway # 52 west just beside the new truck route. “We moved out the country for the quiet of the country,” says Rhonda adding not only has that been lost but with the increase in traffic and higher speeds, safety is an issue. “When the government start-ed this project they proposed seven routes. They asked for input...” The highway that was constructed she says, was a sec-ond proposal and not the best choice. “Highway speed is still 100 kilometres per hour (from Yorkton) up to this route. This causes all sorts of trouble...”

Collision potential, a lack of signage and/or lights and the excessive use of “jake” breaks are all concerns she says. “We’ve gone to great lengths at our own personal cost to fence the entire two acres that our acreage is on to protect our family and pets as well as we hope that when one of these vehicles does lose control at these high speeds, this will hopefully keep them from killing some-one on our property. “We’ve also incurred great costs to our personal selves in order to reduce the amount of noise... we have personally planted close to 800 trees to try to create a shelter belt and noise barrier...” While Bailey acknowledges the need for progress and highway improvements, she is not happy about this particular situation and she is pushing at the very least, for the province to add additional signage as well as to reduce the speed limit from 100 kilometers to 50. Ottenbreit says concerns can never be
discounted and that the province will be looking further into the situation but he’s not certain that a 50 kilometre speed limit is the answer or that there is in fact any real problem. “It will increase traffic in the area. There has been a study conducted on the traffic flow and the impact on the area... any time you have a significant infra-structure project and an increase in the economy with the canola plants in the area, there will be people with concerns because the environment around them has been altered...,” he says. “But what we’re committing to is to have a look at this and we will try to address the concerns.” The $8.6 million Phase 1 portion of the project opened in the fall of 2010, after construction began in 2009. Construction work included: moving a 5.3 km long segment of Highway 16 about 400 metres south; re-aligning Highway 16’s access to Grain Millers Drive; and re-aligning a portion of Grain Millers Drive.
ANOTHER PORTION of the estimated $14 million Yorkton West Truck Route Project officially opened to traffic last Thursday – now known as Highway 52A – and will make travel easier for motorists and shippers. Above, surrounded by representatives from both canola crushing plants and the area RM, MLA Greg Ottenbreit and Yorkton City Councillor Richard Okrainec officially unveil the new sign.

Airport input sought As reported by local media recently, Perimeter Aviation LP is exploring the possibility of providing regularly sched-uled air service between Yorkton and Winnipeg. As such, the air line is seek-ing public opinion in order to provide the best service tailored to meet local needs. The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce strongly urging all businesses to partici-pate in the survey. The greater the response rate, the better able Perimeter Aviation is to determine the frequency of flights and ticket prices. To participate in the survey, go to the
following link: www.surveymonkey.com/s/Perimeter-Yorkton-1 “Competing the survey will be appre-ciated by all those who want to see the continued growth and expansion of Yorkton’s Airport,” says Ron Irvine, President of the Yorkton Chamber.

The annual restriction on pruning all types of elm trees is over at the end of August. Homeowners are encouraged to prune their elms, beginning Septem-ber 1. Each year, pruning of elm trees is prohibited from April 1 to August 31 to reduce the risk of Dutch elm disease (DED). The elm bark beetles that spread the deadly disease
are most active during this period and fresh cuts attract them. Regular pruning, out-side the ban period, helps keep trees healthy and better able to resist all types of diseases, includ-ing Dutch elm disease. Removing dead wood also makes trees less attrac-tive to elm bark beetles.The late summer and ear-ly fall can be a good time
for tree maintenance, with generally more pleasant and predictable weather than in the early spring. The leaves on the trees also making it easier to spot and remove dead or unhealthy branches. Provincial regulations require commercial prun-ers of elm trees to complete a recognized training pro-gram or be under the su-pervision of someone who
has. Improper pruning techniques can contribute to the spread of many tree diseases, including Dutch elm disease. If you require addition-al information regarding designated disposal areas and methods in your area, contact your local munici-pal authority.
Live cattle market expands: Ukraine opens doorsSaskatchewan produc-
ers will immediately benefit from a newly secured market access for live cattle to Ukraine. The announcement, made by the federal gov-ernment, is estimated to be worth close to $12 million over the next three years. “This is good news for our hard working live-stock producers who can
now sell their world-class cattle to the promising Ukraine market,” says federal Ag. Minister Gerry Ritz. “Our Government will contin-ue to create new sales opportunities for Canadian producers around the world, con-tributing to long-term prosperity, job creation and economic growth.” Following commercial interests identified by
the Canadian industry for this specific market, the Government negoti-ated a new certificate that will create new sales opportunities for produc-ers. Canada shipped cat-tle to Ukraine only once in the 1980’s as part of a project for the Canada-Ukraine Artificial Insemination Centre. “CLGA is pleased that these sometimes difficult negotiations have con-
cluded with a positive decision for Canadian and for Ukrainian pro-ducers,” says Rick McRonald, Executive Director of the Canadian Livestock Genetics Association (CLGA). “Canada-Ukraine dairy genetics cooperation began in the 1970’s and has continued through good times and bad. We are happy to see this very positive develop-
ment.” The Canadian swine industry recently bene-fited from restored mar-ket access for live swine and new market access for swine genetics to Ukraine. Building on its good trade relationship with Ukraine, the Harper Government is working to open and increase market access for Canadian beef, poultry and ready-to-eat meat products. “Today’s announce-ment is an important step towards deepening and strengthening our trading relationship with
Ukraine,” adds International Trade Minister Ed Fast. “Our Government is commit-ted to an ambitious pro-trade plan that delivers real benefits for Canadian workers and their fami-lies.” Canada is currently negotiating a free trade agreement with Ukraine, which would further open markets for Canadian agricultural exports. In 2011, Canadian exports of agriculture and food products to Ukraine were valued at more than $22 million.

Foundation Gala tickets going fastBy SHANNON DEVEAUN-R Writer
Tickets are going fast for the 17th annual Health Foundation Gala. It’s your chance to spend an eve-ning in Vegas without having to leave the city. “Gala Evening in Las Vegas is a perfect theme for fun and excite-ment, lots of colour and sparkle. It’s perfect for a Gala night” says Diane Rusnak, Chair of the Gala Committee. “Our committee is going to have a great time with the deco-rating! “The last several Gala evenings have been a tremendous hit, and we are going to improve and build on that success by making Gala better every year. This year Gala Night will feature an Elvis impersonator, fabulous decorations, a live band, and a huge silent auction, and, of course a delicious five course meal.”
As well, Mitch Hippsley, of Portraits by Mitch, will be taking complimentary portraits of guests, and this year will also feature a fun and unique ‘Vegas’ backdrop for the portraits. Sherring Gold Jewellers is again donating a piece of jewellery for a raffle, there will also be an auction for a trip to Vegas. “Our band this year will be the Crawdaddies. They do a wonderful job of playing a variety of music and they keep people on the dance floor all night. People love a live band and they like the opportunity to dance,” adds Rusnak. “We are pleased to have Morris Industries returning as our Presenting Sponsor. Morris Industries has been very supportive of our Gala Night, and have been our Presenting sponsors for seven years now. “In addition to Morris Industries we receive tremendous support
from the 40 businesses that donate items for our Silent Auction.” Over the years Gala events have purchased more than $365,000 of important medical equipment for the region’s healthcare facilities. This year the proceeds of Gala will go toward the purchase of diagnos-tic equipment for the Regional Health Centre in Yorkton. Seating for Gala – which takes place October 20 – will be limited to 320 people. Gala evening has sold out in past years so don’t wait to get your tickets! “We suggest that those planning to attend should get their table organized and order their tickets now.” Ticket order forms are available in person from The Health Foundation office at 41 Betts Avenue in Yorkton. Please call 786-0506 – or order from The Health Foundation website: www.the-healthfoundation.ca.

Slow down in the Orange Zone
Why should age mat-ter? We talk about the prob-lems and prevalence of obesity until the cows come home. With the fast food industry booming, this is a huge problem these days. We talk about kids who won’t get off the couch or part with their video games to engage in the “real” world, and here we have a child who is energetic, fit and deter-mined and we tell him “no” he can’t run with his dad in a race? That’s ridiculous. PEI’s 10-year-old Tyler Heggie loves to run. He has endless energy says his father who encourages his son to engage in the sport of running. Today though, he’s questioning why he’s not being per-mitted to take part in an upcoming marathon event. Last October Heggie competed in the annu-al race, finishing impressively in just over four and a half hours. After conditioning and plenty of prac-tice it was his first official race and this year he had high hopes of bettering his time. UNTIL race organizers decided to adopt a new set of guidelines that say nobody under the age of 14 can compete. Hmmm... “Some people have these antiquated ideas about running,” says his dad Andrew. “It wasn’t that
long ago that women weren’t supposed to be running marathons, either. Some people say running marathons will stunt a child’s growth (REALLY?) and I say seatbelts can kill people, too, but the average per-son knows that most of the time they are going to save your life. “Every sport has an
inherent danger, but the overall effects of a healthy lifestyle, of running, are better than not running or not exercising. Our kids are getting lazier and more obese every day – just look at the entrance to your local junior high school.” Here, here. It makes me think back to when I was a child. We ran, we biked and we walked everywhere. There were no video games or junk food falling from the cupboards and I think we were far better off because of it. Tyler Heggie is young and fit. He runs, plays hockey, has active interests and is on a great path to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and we’re going to tell him he should sit by on the sidelines to watch others pass him by? Do we seriously want to discourage him and convey the message that a physical challenge isn’t doable or a healthy option? He’s a kid. Kids run.

The way I see it...
A woman in Quebec died recently due to a mishap involving her wedding photos. While taking pictures in a river, her wedding dress got water-logged and dragged her in, drowning her. This particular photo shoot was said to be part of a trend called “trash the dress,” where brides, after the wedding is done, do a photo shoot in their wedding dress in places where wedding dresses might not be appropriate. I can see the appeal of this, and in some cases can even support such an endeavor. Wedding photos have come a long way from people just standing around in a line with their wedding party, happy couples and photographers are constantly trying to outdo each other in coming up with unique and creative ways to capture a wedding. While there are undoubtedly dull people out there who think some standard wedding pictures are fine and these dress-wrecking adventure photos are wasteful, I can’t say I agree. It’s kind of interesting, and at least you get something a bit extra out of that normally one-use garment. I say that, of course, but this incident is a reminder that a good idea means nothing if it’s not handled properly. In this case, it’s a wedding dress in a river, and wedding dresses weren’t designed to go in rivers. This is an already heavy garment, and now it’s being made heavier with the addition of water, which as a
rule is not a good combination when you’re in a river with any sort of current. That’s what lead to the woman’s death, and which is a reminder that fun ideas aren’t always safe. This incident illustrates that a fun idea is not always a safe idea, and unfortunately that is some-thing that is necessary on occasion. Everyone has done something very stupid because it seemed like a good idea at the time. Most survive and have an anec-dote to share afterwards, some don’t, but the general theme is that you’re not thinking of the risks before-hand. This is either something done on impulse or something like this photo shoot, which was planned in
advance. The magic of the idea is something that overrides all other thought until something goes wrong and you suddenly remember all that stuff you should have been considering before. It’s a difficult thing to consider, since some ideas that are risky can turn into fantastic overall experi-ences, and others which seem safe can end with dam-age, injury and even death. It’s also often the one thing that you didn’t consider is the one thing that proves to be the undoing of the entire operation. I’m sure that a wet dress wasn’t the first thing on the minds of anyone at this shoot, because the behavior of fabric in water is rarely at the forefront of your think-ing when you’re trying to do something different and creative. I do hope that this one incident doesn’t prompt an end to creative wedding photos, though rivers should naturally be off limits. I just hope that people take a step back, consider what they’re doing, and whether or not the magical idea is actually one that works. A small reality check is all that’s required, a moment where we think a little more about what we’re doing and the potential dangers in that situation. I’m sure it won’t be the last fun idea to go awry, but it’s a reminder that we must always remember that not all things that seem like good ideas actually are.

Slow down in the orange zone! Lives depend on it. While it’s important to drive safely every time you get behind the wheel residents are reminded it’s particularly crucial when you’re heading through a con-struction or orange zone. Sadly, we have been provided with a tragic and lasting reminder. A Saskatchewan flag person was struck by a vehicle in a construc-tion zone last Friday evening. The accident took place at the site of a repaving project on Highway 39 between Midale and Halbrite and it’s currently under investigation by the RCMP and the Ministry of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety. Investigations or not, it’s a pre-ventable happening that could have been avoided if safe driving factored in. “First and foremost, we want to extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of the young woman who died so tragi-cally,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris says. “This kind of accident should never happen. All it takes is for drivers to obey the law and slow down – especially in construction zones.” Motorists are required, by law, to slow to 60 kilometers per hour when passing workers and equip-ment in construction zones. Motorists are also required to obey all signage and instructions within construction zones. Put your cell phones down, pay attention and drive safely. We all want to make it home at the end of the day.

To the Editor:
Saskatchewan is growing. Our economy is robust, our popula-tion thriving. It is an exciting time to be a Saskatchewan citi-zen. The pride we feel for our province now serves to attract new residents. They come full of hope, seeking a fresh begin-ning, meaningful and rewarding work, and the chance to contrib-ute to our shared future. They come from as near as the next province over, and as far as distant continents. They come to settle in our urban communities, and most of them come to our cities. Like the grain elevators once did, our cities now serve as the sign to new Saskatchewan citizens that they are home. Today’s Saskatchewan has 15 cities, and in October, Warman will swell our ranks to 16. Our cities are home to 60 per cent of the province’s citizens, and each year nearly 80 per cent of mi-grants to Saskatchewan settle in our boundaries. Of course, not just cities are growing; the last census showed many towns and villages, and even some rural municipalities are growing too. But without a doubt, the fastest pace of growth is in and near our cities. Why? It’s simple: people want to be close to comprehensive ser-vice centres. They want to live
near schools, hospitals, post-sec-ondary institutions, shopping malls, movie theatres, hockey and curling rinks, swimming pools, and soccer fi elds. Our growing cities, towns, and villages attract the best and brightest from across our province, country, and now the world. They’re attracted to our vibrant and engaging commu-nities, to hubs of innovation, investment and prosperity. The key to unlocking sustained growth in Saskatchewan is to invest in these urban centres - the engines of our economy. Not only is it smart public policy, but it pays real dividends. Investment in urban centres creates jobs in the private sec-tor. The people fi lling these jobs, and the companies employing them, reinvest in the economy, creating more jobs and energiz-ing provincial and federal tax revenues. So urban centres put provincial investment to good work; citizens and businesses prosper, and the province and federal government see a return on their investment. In other words, everyone wins. Fortunately, here in Saskatch-ewan, our provincial government recognizes this winning formu-la. That’s why this government launched the Municipal Operat-ing Grant program – to provide direct provincial revenue shar-
ing to all local governments. To ensure it is predictable, sustain-able, and tied to growth, the Premier linked the funding to the PST. Each year the province transfers 20 per cent of PST rev-enue from a previous year to the 786 local governments in Sas-katchewan. This program was the fi rst of its kind in Canada and made our local governments the envy of our counterparts in other provinces. So now, fi ve years after the launch of this revolutionary pro-gram, Saskatchewan’s cities, towns, and villages are pleased to come together and publicly thank Premier Wall and the Government of Saskatchewan for their investment. We want the public to know about the great partnership that the prov-ince has built with us. We are truly Partners in Building Our Saskatchewan. For the next month, I encourage you to look and listen carefully, to learn about our partnership and why the work of our urban centres is important.

To the Editor:
Have you ever wondered why milk and cheese are so expensive in Canada? If you’ve spent time in the United States, you’ll know that our American counterparts pay a frac-tion of what we do for dairy products. The reason? Canada’s magnifi cently stupid poli-cy of dairy supply management. Canada purports to have a free and open marketplace. We champion free trade, fair competition, and trust in the basic laws of supply and demand. Unfortunately, dairy supply management runs counter to these basic principles: it props up an ineffi cient system of production, effectively doubles the price of dairy products for consumers, and gouges the people who can least afford it. In short, it’s bad for everyone. Except, of course, a handful of Eastern Canadian dairy farmers. Here’s how it works. Our current system of dairy supply management was established by the federal government in the ‘70s to ensure the success of the industry. It is overseen by the Canadian Dairy Commission, a regu-latory body charged with setting the price of dairy products. In what can only be de-scribed as a massive confl ict of interest, two of its three commissioners are dairy farm-ers, and its CEO, John Core, used to be one as well. Thus dairy farmers, not the market, get decide what the public will pay for their product, which helps explain why a four-litre jug of milk that costs just $2.50 in New York costs around $5.00 here in Saskatoon. This can occur because enormous barriers to trade keep outsiders out. Americans want-ing to sell milk in Canada can’t afford to pay the required tariffs – which are set specifi -cally to discourage competition from foreign dairy producers – and still turn a profi t. This effectively guarantees a monopoly for do-mestic producers. Canada has about 13,000 dairy farmers, each of whom must buy government-set milk quotas. The quotas are basically production credits which determine what each farmer is permitted to produce and sell. In total, the current value of these milk quotas is about $33 billion, or $1,000 for every man, woman, and child in the country. That works out to about $2.3 million per farmer. In a cruel irony, however, artifi cially infl at-ing the market makes dairy farming nearly unprofi table. The National Post reported that one farmer grossed only $230,000 on $1 million worth of quotas; his net profi t, after accounting for his production costs, was just $70,000. Business concerns aside, dairy sup-ply management has serious ramifi cations for the less fortunate among us. When every cent matters, the choice between expensive milk and cheap pop isn’t really much of a choice. After a while such purchasing deci-sions become habits, which can contribute to obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis and a host of other maladies down the road. Dairy supply management also sets a ter-rible precedent, namely that dairy farmers shouldn’t have to compete fairly in the mar-ketplace. Other businesses must succeed by better serving customers, creating better products or offering better prices (or some combination of the three), why shouldn’t dairy farmers be held to the same standard? Of course, farmers exert a great deal of in-fl uence over the provincial and federal gov-ernments, and Ontario and Quebec will resist any attempt to change this morally bankrupt system since many of their constituents prof-it from it, at the expense of the rest of the country and consumers. Regardless, that supply management hurts the poor more than any other group is rea-son enough to abolish it; that it hoses ev-eryone who buys dairy products suggests it was a bad idea to begin with and should be eliminated as soon as possible. Unquestion-ingly supporting a gluttonous industry on the backs of cash-strapped consumers isn’t progressive; it’s ridiculous.

To the Editor:
I read with interest ‘Property rights at risk at border’, by Jo-seph Quesnel, and ‘CWB, tyranny and economics’ by Herb Pinder, in the StarPhoenix August 17, 2012. Many legal problems are arising in Canada from Pierre Trudeau’s refusal to include our individual civil right to own property into the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This allowed the truck belonging to Edwin and Alison Morris to be confi scated by Cana-dian border offi cials. The Charter does not protect them from having their property taken away by the state. They are denied their rights to presumption of innocence, due process or even any compensation for their truck. A serious ‘civil rights defi cit’ exists within Canada and provides the impetus for our governments (fed-eral and provincial) to enact laws allowing them to seize and keep citizens property without needing to prove that a crime was commit-
ted by the property owner, and without having to show that any crime was ever committed. Although Canadians have the right to own property, the govern-ment suppresses it. Canada the govt. correctly argued that our right is not specifi cally written into the Charter. This is how the Charter is used to screen so many of our civil rights from us. Of these, our right to own property, is one of the oldest, most fundamental and powerful civil rights we have. Although currently prohibited by our federal and provincial govern-ments through their many rights infringing laws, our civil rights never expire or cease to exist. This right was designed to pro-tect an individual’s property against state deprivation like what the Morrises encounter. The right to private property can be traced back to the Magna Carta (1215), the English Bill of Rights (1689) John Locke’s Second Trea-tise (1690), Blacktstone’s Com-mentaries on the Laws of England
(1765-1769) and The Canadian Bill of Rights(1960). We in Canada adopted the civil rights contained within these fa-mous legal documents through the preamble of our Constitution. At least three ways exist as a remedy for Canadians to regain function of our ‘Charter excluded’ civil rights. For example, if Prime Minister Harper were to keep a Conserva-tive party promise and amend the Canadian Constitution to include our individual property right or if the Supreme Court were to deliver a Charter challenge decision strik-ing down property rights infring-ing legislation (such as those abus-ing the Morrises) and re-affi rming our civil right to private property or provincially, Premier Brad Wall could fulfi ll a Sask Party policy of 2010 which calls for amending ‘the current Saskatchewan Human Rights Code to enshrine the indi-vidual’s Right to own property.

To the Editor:
Stephen Harper often offers free advice to oth-ers, but rarely practices his own preachings. Not long ago, he was lec-turing European leaders on how they should work better together. This is a bit gratuitous coming from a Prime Minister who refuses to meet with provincial leaders within Canada. On the economy, en-ergy, the environment, pensions, healthcare, employment insurance, immigration – you name it – Mr. Harper repeat-edly issues edicts with no consultation or collabo-ration. The provinces ask for discussions; Mr. Harper turns his back. A subject-matter that could benefi t from coordi-nated federal-provincial-
municipal action is com-munity safety. All three orders of government need to function in con-cert together. But Mr. Harper doesn’t work well with others. He’s not big on coopera-tive partnerships. His Ministers for Inter-gov-ernmental Affairs are largely a waste of space. Mr. Harper’s behaviour is consistently unilateral and arbitrary – nowhere more so than on crime and public safety. For six years, his ap-proach has been charac-terized by three things: • a PR campaign to stoke public fears (be-cause Harper-Conserva-tives think this serves them politically), even while crime stats in Can-ada have been steadily declining for more than 20 years;
• federal budget cuts which undermine police forces, corrections offi -cers, border services, etc., while also downloading major costs onto provinc-es; • and, US-style sen-tencing policies which tend to be unconstitu-tional, make our society less (not more) safe, and clog-up the justice system – policies that right-wing American lawmakers (like Newt Gingrich) de-scribe as abject failures. Instead of an approach driven by ideology and partisanship, wouldn’t it be more useful to assem-ble all relevant federal, provincial and munici-pal authorities to have a rational, evidence-based discussion of what we re-ally need and what really works to enhance public safety?
How best to rebuild Re-gina’s anti-gang program, for example, and other crime prevention tools? How to fi ght family and community dysfunction in inner-city neighbour-hoods – before, not just after, crime occurs? How to strengthen com-munity-based policing? How to speed-up and bol-ster investigations and prosecutions, with com-plete cooperation from all agencies at all levels? How to maximize the usefulness of new tech-nologies? There are many topics to cover. But one thing is clear – a constructive ef-fort to engage and collab-orate is likely to be more effective than confronta-tion and polarization.

Arbitrary behaviour undermines safety
Charity Road Race a big success: raises over $30,000 The Health Foundation’s annual Charity Road Race event – held last Sunday in Yorkton – was a big success raising $31,500 to help out with local healthcare initiatives.

The start of a new school year is always a bit of an adjustment in our time schedules from the lazy, hazy days of summer. Even people who are not parents are impacted by longer com-muting times due to the increased traffic on the roads. Having some quick and easy meal ideas in our home menu repertoires can make a world of difference when it come to the stress level of preparing dinner. Our society is bom-barded with artificial solutions to our hectic lives, such as fast food restaurants and pre-made, prepackaged meals. It is a sad state of reality when quick and nutritious meals are only an idea away. Yes, some
planning needs to be involved, but it is not as difficult as one may first think. Slow cookers are the most obvious answer and many recipes can be found at your local library or on the inter-net. I was astounded when I first saw a com-mercial recently that advertised a prepack-aged slow-cooker meal: one that is easily emp-tied from the bag frozen into your crock pot. Yes, this is still better than deep fried fast-food, but it is basic cooking and not only is it costing you a fortune in comparison to making it yourself, you also have no control of any preservatives that may be included. Casseroles are another
resolution and very pop-ular with kids. Again this requires some plan-ning, but the most time efficient method would be to prepare two or three casseroles of the same dish at once. This would allow you to freeze the extra meals for an even quicker solution to your busiest evenings. Other dishes that could fall under this same cat-egory would be meat-loaves, lasagna, shep-herd’s pies, cabbage rolls, etc. For dishes like this that are to be made in abundance and kept fro-zen, find the day of the week that works best for you, like a Sunday after-
noon for example. There are many other non-casserole recipes that can be prepared ahead of time as well like pasta sauces, pizzas, stir frys, etc. Food is not only an avenue to keep us alive, but it is an opportunity to celebrate life, nutrition, and the joys of flavours. Unfortunately in today’s society, many people don’t see the appeal in bringing the family meal together, and have classified cook-ing as a household chore. A more accurate example of a household chore would be vacuuming, not cooking. How many
times have you called up a friend and asked if they want to vacuum with you? Probably never. Such gatherings are almost always over dinner, lunch or coffee and a treat. Food is life in so many ways; nutri-tion, building relation-ships, pleasure from fla-vours, etc, and the first thing we need to change is our vision when it comes to food and cook-ing. Look for the negatives in anything and you will find them. Look for the positives and your per-ception will change. Yes, my opinion is obviously biased, but what would you rather do: have pride in making (and eating) a great meal, or clean your carpet?
Dear Chef Dez: I like the taste of gar-lic in different dishes, however when I add it to a stir-fry it always adds a bitter flavour. What am I doing wrong?
Sincerely,John D., Abbotsford, BC
Dear John: If this is the only time you experience a bitter flavour from the addi-tion of garlic to a recipe, I suspect that it is get-ting burned. Garlic burns very easily, especially if added to the extreme temperature of oil in “wok cooking”. To avoid this problem in the future, always add a dif-ferent vegetable first to the hot oil to temper it a little before adding the garlic.

SUDOKU RULESThe objective is to fi ll a 9×9 grid with digits so that each
column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 sub-grids that compose the grid (also called “boxes,” “blocks,” “regions,” or “sub-squares”) contains all of the digits from 1 to 9. The puz-zle setter provides a partially completed grid, which typically has a unique solution. Completed puzzles are always a type of Latin square with an additional constraint on the contents of individual regions. For example, the same single digit may not appear twice in the same 9x9 playing board row or col-umn or in any of the nine 3x3 subregions of the 9x9 playing board. This week’s puzzle is easy. See the solution on Page 12.

A new chair will be welcomed to the helm following an announce-ment by Greg Kobylka, Chairperson of the Sunrise Regional Health Authority that he will be resigning his position effective September 1, 2012 due to increased commit-ments outside of his role as Board Chair. Serving on the Sunrise Regional Health Authority Board of Directors since November, 2004, Kobylka has been involved in a number of advancements and ini-tiatives in Sunrise Health Region. “I feel very fortunate to have been a part of so many great things, including new strategic initiatives focused on patient and family cen-tred care and the con-ceptual planning pro-cess for new health facilities in our region,” he says. “I am very confident that Sunrise Health Region is in an excel-lent position as an orga-nization, with advance-ments already made in new innovation and strategic direction. The Board and the Sunrise Health Region team
will continue with the great enthusiasm and dedication that has been demonstrated throughout the years that I have been involved.” “I want to thank Mr. Kobylka for his years of dedicated service to Saskatchewan people, andto residents of the Sunrise Health Region in particular,” Health Minister Dustin Duncan comments. “We appreciate his contributions to health care in our province, his forward-thinking approach, and his com-mitment to providing patient and family cen-
tred care.” “I will certainly miss working with Greg, and I wish him all the best in his future endeavors. We have a strong Board and we will continue to execute our strategic deployment to enhance everyone’s experience with our health sys-tem,” adds Suann Laurent, President and CEO of Sunrise Health Region. Until a new Chairperson is appoint-ed, Lawrence Chomos, Vice-Chairperson for the Sunrise Regional Health Authority Board of Directors, will serve as the interim Chairperson.
Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This is the eleventh of a series on getting settled in Hazel Dell.
What a ride! First tor-rential rain mixed with marble size hail stones, and then the winds! Gone With the Wind you say, well I was blown away, almost literary! Just as we were watching our favorite crime show on the telly, then suddenly with a pop, out goes the light at the most sus-penseful part, almost making my heart stop! Now we have to wait for the rerun to see the end-ing! Talk about having your lights knocked out! At Hazel Dell we were with-out power for about 40 hours! Then when we did get the power back, we had no water! Apparently when the power was finally restored to Hazel Dell, the line to the vil-lage pump house was still down. Our F-250 was con-verted to a water truck!
We had about 4 or 5 large plastic vats in the back, and filled them up from my brother-in-law’s house in Preeceville, so we could water our horses and chickens. We promised him that we would look after the water bill when he gets it. The power is restored now, and the water is flowing The wind was reported to have gusted to about 100km per hour! The trees around our yard went down like dominos, seven trees in all! Two of them are still hung up on a spruce tree, and we are looking for an experienced tree person to take them down. The only good thing about all of this is that we will have a lot of firewood for the coming winter. Even after such violent display of nature, Hazel Dell is still a beautiful place to live, but I’m a bit concerned that by living here we might be referred to as Hazel Nuts or Hazel Dellians or perhaps Hazel Dellbillys! Where does the name of our hamlet
come from? Maybe it was named after a girl named Hazel, who lived in a hut in a small wooden hollow, which would be the dell. Her eyes were probably greenish brown. The dell was covered by the hazel tree (corylus), a decidu-ous tree, and some bushes that produced hazel nuts. Hazel was known for her magical powers that she used to heal people, and was at times referred to as Witch Hazel! Sounds like the real thing to me! Parade time! Marion used to ride with the Edmonton Sheriff’s Posse, and is a seasoned parade rider, and when the opportunity came for her to be part of the Sturgis and Preeceville parade as a member of the Etomami Valley Riding Club, she jumped at it! Last Saturday was the Sturgis Parade, and a very fine parade it was! The Etomami Valley Riding Club was bringing up the rear of the parade, and doing so looking sharp in a good riding formation. However, they
had to stop right where I was standing along the parade route, as there was something up ahead that was causing a small delay. One of the horses at the back of the forma-tion decided he had had enough at that point with the heat and all, and started to prance and crow hop to show his dis-pleasure. The rider pulled him back as the horse turned and his rear end hit another horse who also started to act up a little. But let me tell you! Those riders know how to handle their horses. What could have become a rodeo lasted all but a second
and they had their horses under control. The parade reminded me about the story of the service club for women only (no name) that had 10 women in a parade walking in one line pull-ing on a rope attached to a loaded cart to show how they all pulled together and in the same direction. There were nine blondes and a red head. They got startled by a fire truck spewing water at road level, and they inadver-tently jumped over the guard rail on a bridge over a canyon. That caused the loaded cart to be jammed up against the
guard rail, but it was obvious that the rope would not hold the weight of all of them and could snap at any time. They had a quick discussion, and came to the conclu-sion that one of them had to let go and sacrifice her-self so that the others might live. Nobody vol-unteered, and finally the red head decided that she would be the one. She gave a passionate speech to the other women about how she loved them and would sacrifice her-self for them. The nine blondes were so moved by this speech that they all started to clap….!
CLOSE CUTS FOR CANCER –The main event happens in May but that doesn’t stop others from pitching throughout the year. Owners of the Gitko Lake Store at Good Spirit Lake recently held a pancake breakfast and head shaving event that raised over $4,300 for the local Close Cuts for Cancer initiative that takes place each May in Yorkton. Pictured, Kelly Shumay, from Regina, a Regina City Police officer and son of cabin-owners, Henry and Eleanor Shumay from Yorkton, has his head shaved for the cause and at the same time raised over $800 to help fight the battle against cancer. Food and supplies were donated by the Gitko Lake Store and Drake Meats.

MOTOCROSS ACTION invaded Yorkton as riders looked to end their season at the track. Local rider Zach Hudy shined with two first place finishes in the Intermediate class while Kane Dawson had two second place moto finishes in the pro class.
Local riders shine at home moto eventBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer
With weeks of hard work and prepara-tion rebuilding and remodelling the dirt track, Yorkton held its annual motocross event on Sunday as racers from all over Western Canada filled the track in what was an exciting day for racing. The mix of weather from light mist to sun by the hour gave the track some extra moisture while making things a little less comfort-able for the large gathering of spectators who came to check out the action. Shawn Maffenbeier stole the show taking home first in all three of the pro events while local riders Zachary Hudy and Kane Dawson were the notable riders in the
pro and intermediate class. Hudy took first place in intermediate MX-2 with first place finishes in both motos in his first race action since com-ing back from injury earlier in the sum-mer and capped off his day with a ninth place performance in the first moto of the Pro GP event. Hudy said he was excited to return to racing at his home track and that despite the slightly wet conditions it was a solid day of racing for him. Kane Dawson placed second in the first moto of the Pro GP event and fin-ished fourth in in the Pro MX-1 event with a second and sixth place finish in his motos. Dawson commented that his day went well and that things were very
tight in the pro class. Dawson mentioned that the six week break in between races was nice after competing in Nationals in Calgary and Edmonton and that the Yorkton track was well put together. Dawson failed to qualify in Calgary but qualified in the Top 25 in Edmonton, putting him in among the Top 100 riders in Canada. Dawson would like to thank Schrader motors for the work the do in putting on the event. Levi Litvanyi and Hayden Langelier rounded out the notable Yorkton finishes with a fifth and third place finish respec-tively in Junior MX-2. Saltcoats Sean Vincent finished second in the Junior MX-1 event.
YUFC Women host Cancer Benefit GameBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer After a magical 2012 winter and summer season the Yorkton United Football Club’s U-16 girls wrapped up their year with a charity match to support the Canadian Cancer Society against a team made up of YUFC women’s alumni. Like the popular testimonial matches put on by European clubs to commemorate special players, teams, or matches with the proceeds going to charity the undefeated U-16 side raised money with a bottle/pledge drive as well as a collection at the match where in total they raised over $2000 for the Cancer Society. The game itself saw the U-16 girls continue their unbeaten streak in the friendly with a 4-1 win over the YUFC alumni led by Rita Fetsch who controlled the game up top for the YUFC U-16’s as well as providing goal scoring and exhibiting excellent ball control throughout the match. The game went into halftime with a 2-1 score and the YUFC alumni provided entertaining opposition despite having the obvious disadvan-tage of not training as a team. The idea for the game came from manager Alfie Bermeduez who after the season wanted to wrap up the girls season in a special way. Bermeduez said, “The idea to commemorate the team came to me as I wanted this team to be remembered as much as the soccer community would and I first planned to organize a game against another team in the province, but then the alumni and U-18 girls wanted to be a part of it so that is how it came about.” explained Alfie. Bermeduez was happy with how the event turned out and the money they raised for cancer research and says he wants to make the event a yearly happening as he notices that events of this kind are almost non-existent in Canada and hopes to start a trend. Bermeduez also mentioned that he may try to arrange a match against another Saskatchewan side next year, instead of going the alumni route but plans are obviously still in the beginning stage. The Canadian Cancer Society and Sherring Gold Jewellery were thanked for their participation in making the event a reality as well as the players and parents.

Over the weekend Lance Armstrong, seven time Tour De France winner, global hero, and face of the “Livestrong” charity/insane money making Nike brand, de-cided to stop fi ghting doping allegations levied against him by the USA-DA effectively stripping him of seven Tour De France titles and cast-ing a shadow of a doubt on the legitimacy of his achievements. Now re-gardless of your opinion on all of this, seeing how now that Armstrong will no longer be cooperat-ing with the constant USADA investigation he has been under since teammate Floyd Landis and the obvious fact he won seven straight titles in a sport where the top 21 riders in one of the Tour De France’s he won were linked to doping were brought up. One has to see this point. Lance Armstrong has fought cancer and has served as inspiration to millions of people, who in turn have supported him through buying his Livestrong products and has allowed Armstrong to make himself mil-lions of dollars. On the other hand Lance Arm-strong’s story of battling cancer, training to the point where he could win seven straight titles in a sport where such dominance is a once in a generation happen-ing, and giving count-less people a role model and inspiration in what-ever tough times and personal struggles they were going through indi-vidually. Now people are going to be put through the tough decision of de-ciding how they now feel about a man who was once considered one of the greatest sports/hu-man fi gures by 99 per cent of people who were aware of his achieve-ments and mission. I have always thought Lance Armstrong was taking performance en-hancing drugs. It wasn’t a very popular opinion and led to a lot of people being very displeased to hear my view, but as a skeptic it was very
hard for me to believe a man who had cancer could win seven Tour De France titles in a sport where everyone is on the juice without hav-ing some sort of drug himself helping to level the playing fi eld. Now that didn’t mean I didn’t think Lance Armstrong was a great individual and an amazing athlete and story for people to learn from, I just wasn’t going to put the wool over my eyes and take a swan dive into the Kool-Aid, because I knew it would eventually be the set up for a fall. And this is where my real point lies be-yond how anyone feels personally about Arm-strong and the whole maelstrom of contro-versy that has sparked constant internet debate on him, holding athletes or any human being on a moral pedestal is only going lead to bad things. Charles Barkley, one of my favorite athletes said it best in his famous Nike ad when he boldly declared “I am not a role model.” Athletes are hu-man beings, and often they are human beings who have to deal with an amount of temptation that the fans and people who adore them could not even begin to fath-om. Sure, the work ethic that athletes should be admired and be used to serve as a teaching tool for anyone to learn from, but when you get into the grey area of let-ting any celebrity fi gure be the fi gurehead of a moral benchmark, you are in trouble. Take Kobe Bryant for exam-ple, his relentless work ethic and desire to win at all costs can be used as an example for any-one that hard work and drive to succeed is pivot-al in success. But on the other hand he has had a divorce with his wife and has been caught in adulterous behaviour multiple times, even in-famously being charged for sexual assault before charges were dropped in a case that at one point shattered public percep-tion on him. Even Mi-
chael Jordan, the 1990’s most famous athlete and spokesperson for nearly anything on the planet at the time, is considered by many to be a jerk and has countless stories from former teammates and fans who have felt the wrath of MJ’s short fuse to back it up. MJ himself even stands on shaky moral ground as
he has a gambling prob-lem that has often been well documented. Even on the local sports scene Jordan Matechuk went through the whole fallen hero co-nundrum after his bor-der incident in which he was caught with ste-roids. Sure many people can write him off also and label him a cheat
or a fraud, but the man still worked hard to get where he is at and put countless hours in the gym and on the fi eld to get into the CFL and the fact he landed a spot on another team
afterwards is a testa-ment to that. That’s the thing with all of these examples, what is the purpose of holding athletes and celebrities to a higher moral standard than we hold ourselves and everyday people? When did we as fans and as people become so high and mighty? If we as a society are going to dic-tate the morals of oth-ers, we should fi rst see if we even remotely come close to the measuring stick we hold our heroes
today. That is one of the problems with society that likely will never be changed, too quickly do we focus our atten-tion to the pitfalls and low points of others, and turn a blind eye to our own moral transgres-sions and things in our lives that if we were in a similar position likely would be blown to an equal proportion if we were popular fi gures. You can go ahead and point the fi ngers on top of your high horse all you want, just don’t ex-pect me to join in the false shock and offense you all take when your own morals get hurt by someone you have no relationship with. They are athletes, not role models.

JR RAIDERS FOOTBALL kicked off the high school sports schedule as the Gridders fell to the Greenall Griffins 28-6 in a physical contest at Century Field.
JR Raiders open 2012 seasonBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer
Opening their 2012 season at Century Field, the YRHS Junior Raiders were in tough against a very good Greenall Griffins team in a Regina League clash. The Raiders special teams arguably cost them a game that they were into for three of the four quarters in what ultimately ended up being a 28-6 defeat to open up their season. With the senior squad leaving the RIFL for a new opportunity by way of league play in Moose Jaw the JR Raider Gridders are the last ties the YRHS has to Regina football and got the privilege to start their 2012 cam-paign at home with hopes of using the home crowd and travel advan-tage to their favour with an early season win over the Balgonie high school. The game was a defensive affair with both teams figuring out their offensive schemes and chemis-try in the season’s opening week as big scoring plays were nowhere to be found. However the Raiders did make a few key errors, including the aforementioned mistakes in the spe-cial teams game that saw them head into the fourth quarter down 14-3 and needing defensive stops to give them a chance to mount the come-back. However a comeback was not in the cards for the hometown Raiders on the day as a stunning thirty yard lob from the Balgonie quarterback put the Griffins on the goal line, leading to a simple quarterback sneak to put the Griffins up 21-3 and put the final nail on the Raiders cof-fin as eighteen points in a quarter was simply going to be too much ground for the brand new Gridder offense to muster up. The Griffins added a score, before a Nick Payne screen pass went for a long touch-down gain before being called back for an extremely questionable hold-ing call in what was an inconsistent at best day for the referees in their first action of the season as question-able calls and decisions were sent the way of both teams in the contest. A field goal came out of the drive after the holding call to make it a final score of 28-6 in a game that while being closer than the scoreline indicated, will hopefully not serve as the measuring stick for the JR Raiders season going forward. Despite the momentum killing fourth quarter touchdowns the Raiders did not go down lightly on defence or offence as the Raiders
continued to play hard nosed football and did not give up any ground when challenged by the physical Greenall team. The physical play finally esca-lated into a few after the play dust-ups at midfield after gang tackles that both teams took exception to some pushing and shoving between the teams and not escalating to any penalties or unsportsmanlike behav-iour on the field. Head Coach Mike Jarvis noted that while a few bounces could have went the Raiders way that would have changed the game’s storyline, saying “The game was much closer than it will look, some good things on offense and defense were noticed and a few mental mistakes here and there but overall there were good things on display throughout the game.” Jarvis attributed the loss not to the offense or defensive effort of the Raiders, but of the game’s third facet, special teams, “Mental mis-takes and special teams probably cost us the game.” Jarvis insisted that the Raiders will be working on tuning up their special teams going forward to prevent further break-downs down the road, especially in the punt game. Mental errors and slip ups are to be expected at the beginning of any high school sports season and the Gridders should be able to eliminate those mistakes in the coming weeks as players get more reps at practice and gel more as a team. Special teams especially as it is the lesser focus of teams at the beginning of the season as offensive and defen-sive gameplans are much more com-plex and demand a higher focus, often leaving special teams reps low. Jarvis mentioned Caleb Bymak was a key player on defense. The Raiders now head on the road this week where they will face the Regina Riders in their first road test. Things will not get easier for the Raiders as the Riders are typically one of Regina’s best teams, and were one of the league’s top two teams last season according to coach Jarvis. Jarvis had high praise for the Riders stating that they were “A very solid running team, and like to pound the ground game and run up the gut.” Jarvis mentioned that the Raiders will be working on their inside defen-sive schemes and will be looking for a power football matchup when they head to Regina. The Raiders-Riders road clash is Saturday in Regina and will serve as Week Two in the JR Raiders 2012 season.
Pee Wee Gridders fall to Regina Riders at Century FieldBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer
After blowing out the opposition on the road in Week One of their 2012 season, the Yorkton Pee Wee Gridders got a taste of their own medicine at the hands of the Regina Riders at Century Field Sunday. After having a strong defensive show-ing in the opening week, the Raiders sim-ply could not stop the Riders running back who had a huge day on the way to a thirty plus point victory. After a 45-0 victory the weekend before that saw the Gridder defense dominate throughout the game, even scoring a defen-sive touchdown, the success the Riders had in the running game came as a shock as the Regina running back had his way for most of the game, specifically on the outside where they took advantage of their speed with sweep plays and pitch outs for big gains. Despite the less than desired scoreline the Gridders did show spark on offense and rattled off big gains in the air and threatened to score on numerous occasions, but just could not piece together com-plete scoring drives. With a 45-0 win in the previous week it is clear that the Gridders have a winning team, but the Riders were just a step above in competi-tion that they have to work to catch up to. Head coach Noel
Budz mentioned that the blowout win in the opening week might have led to raised expectations saying, “Sometimes when you go out and have a blow-out win, you might think you don’t have to work as hard, and we definitely have a few things to work on.” As for the defense Budz mentioned that it was great in the opening week and that it was much improved in the second half of the game, but that a key part of the defense moving for-ward will be the offense holding onto the ball and making drives to help out the defense. The offense did a good job of that in the open-ing week as they start-ed out the game with a quarter long drive on offense that wore down the opposing defense and kept the Gridders defensive corps time on the field down to a min-imum. Budz also men-tioned that the running game helped set up the passing plays that the Gridders gained yard-age on and that will be a focus of their offense all season. The Gridders head back on the road Friday night as they return to Regina for a came Budz says the boys will be ready for and looking to win in a game that will serve as a gauge for the Gridders season after two conflicting results to open the 2012 sea-son. Expect the Gridders to put on a better showing on the road and return to their winning ways.

The 2012 Parkland Mall Men’s League came to a close Sunday effectively ending the Yorkton United Football Club’s 2012 summer season. The league came down to a final matchday as the M&M Whitecaps and Celtic battled for the top of the table. The Whitecaps moved up to a three point lead after beating Celtic in the opening game with a game at hand before Celtic won 10-6 against a shorthanded Yorkshire & Albion squad that went from undefeated in the first six games to a fourth place finish. Celtic opened up the game 5-1 before the Albion had a late first half charge to make it 6-5 in what could have easily been a lead for the Albion. Celtic’s full bench and man advantage ended up prov-ing too much as they got the win and the ten goals needed to take the tiebreaker, winning the 2012 title in the most entertaining of fashions. League organizer Mike Jakubiec mentioned that this summer was the highest numbers the YUFC has had and would like to thank sponsors Parkland Mall and M&M Water Supplies for making the league possible.

Walking is one of the most afford-able and convenient exercises to main-tain a healthy lifestyle. Walking has been proven to lower blood pressure, reduce the risk or manage type 2 diabe-tes, manage weight, reduce bad choles-terol levels, and reduce the risk of heart disease or heart attack. For senior citi-zens, it’s also a safe way to stay healthy.
If all of that weren’t enough reason to lace up your walking shoes, setting goals and creating a sense of achieve-ment is a great way to motivate yourself to exercise more.
Adding steps to your day comes down to a change in your behavior and being aware of your actions, explains Dr. Shannon Bredin, a behavior special-ist and assistant professor in the University of British Columbia’s School of Kinesiology.
According to Dr. Bredin, tracking is an effective form of self-monitoring that can help motivate a person. Tracking can measure and help regulate your behavior. But it isn’t easy to accurately quantify your physical activity.
Great little tools are also available to help track your activity. For example, there’s a new and affordable device from a Canadian company that’s a digi-tal pedometer, and much more. Take a look at www.tractivityonline.com to see how it works. Tractivity is lightweight and easy to use. A digital sensor conve-niently attaches to your shoe or inside special insoles and records your steps. The Tractivity software securely stores your activity information, including your goals and walking history. It illus-trates your progress by showing a record
of your steps, distance travelled, time active, and the calories burned in a fun and motivational manner. It also pres-ents you with virtual awards as you reach milestones.
Tracking how many steps you take each day may surprise you. This includes your walk from the bus to work, the walk to the corner store, taking the stairs, gardening, and even a few trips to the office water cooler. Be aware how-ever, that many people don’t have a good understanding of whether or not they get enough physical activity every day.
A common mistake, experts say, is using the scale to measure the progress of a fitness regime. Dr. Bredin advises that you would get more accurate infor-mation by measuring your level of physical activity – like the steps you take in a day – than you would from a number on the scale.
Tracking your activity is like signing a contract with yourself, she explains. It objectively measures your exercise and increases your understanding and per-ception of what you are doing. “Tracking is one tool that allows you to be account-able to your goal.”
Dr. Bredin says it’s also critical to set the right goals and measure the right outcomes.
“You don’t want your goals to be too easy so that there is no satisfaction in fulfilling them, but you also can’t make them so difficult that they frustrate you. The secret to setting goals is to strike a balance between achievability and cre-ating a real challenge for yourself.”

As the weather begins to cool and the leaves start to fall, raking your lawn isn’t the only home main-tenance task that needs attention. In order to keep your home in good shape for the long run, and to maintain your new home warranty rights, mainte-nance should be performed year-round. In the autumn months, think about pre-paring your home for win-ter. Just as we take out warmer clothes and put away our bathing suits and sandals, our home also needs to get ready for the change in weather.
If you own a newly con-structed home, upkeep is an essential part of main-taining your warranty. All new homes in Ontario come with a warranty that lasts seven years from the date of the first possession, guaranteed by Tarion Warranty Corporation. The warranty protects home-owners from issues like water penetration through the basement or foundation walls; defects in the elec-trical, plumbing and heat-ing systems, and major structural damage, among other problems. In order to ensure your home stays covered, your regular sea-sonal maintenance should include:
• Turning off your out-side water supply from the
inside, while leaving out-side taps open;
• Having your furnace serviced in preparation for winter;
• Cleaning and testing all exhaust fans;
• Checking your sump-pump float and discharge line and testing overall operation;
• Installing a protective winter cover on your air conditioning unit;
• Checking windows and doors for cracks around the framing; fixing the caulking if you notice any cracks or separations;
• Inspecting your fire-place and chimney damp-ers and servicing or clean-ing if necessary;
• Testing smoke alarms and carbon monoxidedetectors;
• Having your roof inspected to ensure shin-gles, flashing and chimney caps are in place and sealed properly.
Maintaining a home properly includes taking care of it year-round and it’s worth remembering that ongoing maintenance helps to ensure that your statutory warranty is pro-tected. A more comprehen-sive checklist of seasonal home maintenance tasks is available online at tarion.com.

Not that long ago YBID with our partners at the Yorkton Exhibition
Association sponsored another Chuck Wagon Racers Breakfast.
It was a cool damp day.
We want to give a special thank you to the great people at
Kahkewistahaw First Nation Petro Can Gas Bar and all the Crew at
McDonalds.
While this is after the fact,it suddenly dawned on yours truly
that our local small businesscommunity is always digging into their bottom line and donating to
events and activities that take placehere in Yorkton.
Kahkewistahaw donated prizes to our event. McDonalds donated all
the food and beverages. At the same time our local media always front and centre, were around to tell the world
about what we were doing so that people could attend.
I guess my point is local business always provides goods and services
to our communities, but they also do far more to support all those other
events and activities that make a community what it is.
Be it the Health Foundation, Cancer Cure Fund Raisers, Sporting Events,
school Trips and more.
So not only is YBID saying thank you to our partners, but to each and
every small business in YBID and our City of Yorkton for giving what they
can when asked.
There is a phrase about“Small Business being the backbone
of the economy”, no greaterexample of this can be seen right
here in our own backyard.
So in case no one has expressed it for a while, to all our business sector
“T hank You”
