The Parkland College’s Trades and Technology Centre has long been a dream. That dream is now a reality, with the facility official-ly holding its grand opening.

The $19 million facil-ity allows the college the better needs of students in the area, and better meet the needs the stu-dents in the area, says Dwayne Reeve, presi-dent of the Parkland College. There are 100 students in the facility right now, with plans for 300 training spaces.

“It’s a really wonder-ful teaching environ-ment, and it’s also a wonderful facility in terms of what we have for equipment and pro-grams.”

The facility means that the Parkland College can offer more programs, Reeve says, as well as offering more in depth programming, and allowing students more time to get practi-cal experience with equipment. While the Power Engineering lab, one of the cornerstones of the new college, is not

completely finished, Reeve says it’ll be one of the best facilities in the province. The lab is expected to open on February 1.

“We will be able to train highly skilled workers that will then go back into the work-force, be employed by many of the industries and small businesses in our communities, and ultimately create vibrant communities, and that’s what everyone wants, the region to continue to grow, expand and devel-op.”

The expected cost was $15 million, but Reeve says that the extra cost came in a lot of the intri-cate equipment required for much of the program-ming.

Minister of Advanced Education Scott Moe says that regional col-leges like Parkland fill demands across the province, both for skilled workers for industry as well as increased career opportunities for the students themselves.

“We have regional col-leges across the province that focus on the labour market needs they have in their areas, and Parkland College has

done a great job of that in the past. We look to them with a facility like this to do a great job of just that in the future.”

Moe also believes that it’s important to recog-nize that it was a region-al effort to get the facili-ty off the ground.

“The provincial gov-ernment is a partner in this facility but it’s important to recognize other partners as well, the federal government, industries in the area like Mosaic and PotashCorp, the City of Yorkton as well as the local businesses who donated their time or financially to the cause. I think it’s time to say thank you.”

Past president Fay Myers was also an instrumental part of get-ting the facility off the ground. The planning began six years ago, and Myers says that much of the very early planning involved talking to peo-ple and finding out what they needed for their industry.

“It started six years ago basically by talking to people and putting a small group together at the college and putting a plan and a vision togeth-

er.”Myers admits that it

is a little bit surreal to be stand in the centre on the grand opening.

“I’ve seen it through the sod turning all the way through the con-struction, all of the plan-ning, all of the people involved in planning room to room to room, it’s a wonderful building, a wonderful concept and a wonderful college for this region. I know that the Parkland College will go forward and do more.”

On the subject of doing more, Reeve says that while the college will take a “short rest” after the completion of the centre, they are already looking at other expansions. Some ideas being examined are stu-dent residences.

“We are starting to attract more and more students from outside of our area, even looking at international program-ming. With that comes a need to house are stu-dents.”

Any new educational facilities, including addi-tional phases for the Trades and Technology Centre, would come from examining what the

area needs and would respond to, Reeve says. One area where they are

looking at closely is additional agricultural programming.

What is the best sled town in Saskatchewan? It might be Yorkton, the city is in the running for SnoRiders West Magazine’s SledTown ShowDown, and needs votes to secure the prize for best sled town in the province.

Jason Popowich, pres-

ident of the Yorkton SnoRiders says the com-petition has been excit-ing so far, as Yorkton has narrowly advanced over Candle Lake in the first round.

“To be the top destina-tion in the province would be a feather in the cap for the hard working volunteers in our club, maintaining and signing our trails.”

The city won’t be named the top destina-tion without votes, and Popowich wants people to get online and support the city.

“We need folks in Yorkton and area to cer-tainly support our com-munity and get on the bandwagon.”

While civic pride is one reason to vote for Yorkton, it’s not the only

one, and the club has celebrated twenty five years of working hard to improve snowmobiling in the area.

People also need to vote because of the com-petition in the province. Popowich says that the other towns have a lot to offer as well, and it says good things about what Saskatchewan has to offer.

“In our province in the winter time, you typical-ly think that people pack their bags and go some-

where warm. But the reality is that in Saskatchewan because we live in such a great province, in the winter if you can’t beat it you might as well join it.”

For the SnoRiders, one of the things they’re looking forward to this winter is a new trail groomer, and they are looking forward to put-ting the $280,000 machine to work to main-tain the trails and keep the level of quality for which the city has

become known.To vote, people can

CT SCAN CAMPAIGN – The Health Foundation received a major donation from the Cornerstone Credit Union, with a $15,000 going towards the purchase of a new CT scan for the region. Pictured (l-r) are Lori Walsh, Vice-President of Marketing, Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation and Kevin Lukey, CEO of Cornerstone Credit Union. Lukey says they wanted to donate to a project that would impact the largest number of Credit Union members, and the CT Scan was the obvi-ous pick. Fisher says that this means they have raised a little over $460,000 raised towards their goal of $600,000.

High school students are entering the work-force, and as a result are more exposed to risks that come with some jobs. The CNIB and WorkSafe Saskatchewan want to ensure these students know the importance of safety procedures, and carry them through their lives. They visited Yorkton Regional High School to deliver presen-tations to students on the importance of eye protec-tion.

Amber-Joy Boyd with CNIB says there are 720,000 eye injury cases annually which could have been prevented with proper safety equipment. Their goal is to get people thinking about eye safety and starting to get into safe habits young, so they don’t have to carry an eye injury through life.

“It’s so important because imagine if you were sixteen and lost your vision to a nail gun accident, that’s the rest of your life gone, so it’s so important of wearing the eye safety. Not just in the shop, but when they’re fishing, when they’re using chainsaws, when they’re mowing the lawn, all those things that peo-ple don’t normally wear safety gear during, just to make sure they’re wearing safety gear on a regular basis.”

They went beyond just telling students to wear safety gear, also giving them two pairs of glasses in order to ensure they have no excuse to avoid it. The pairs included one

clear pair, as well as a pair of CSA-approved sunglasses.

The challenge is to break through a teenag-er’s inflated sense of their own invulnerability, and Boyd says that they’re using shock value in their presentation so students can see just how danger-ous some of these activi-ties can be.

“There are some very graphic pictures in there of injuries that have hap-pened and could happen to these kids. One’s a chemical burn, one’s an embedded object, metal

off a grinder, one’s a fish-ing hook that got caught in the eye. These are very real things that could happen to these guys, so we drive home that these could have prevented if you wear the thing we hand you today.”

They are travelling around the province with the presentations. Boyd says that they are popu-lar because the shop teachers see the value of the presentation, and having a clear and graph-ic way of showing kids the importance of wear-ing safety gear.

YORKTON YOUTH received free eye protection as part of a CNIB and WorkSafe Saskatchewan presentation on the importance of eye safety at YRHS. Amber-Joy Boyd with the CNIB shows the two pairs of glasses students received.


Mental fatigue is something that people who have experienced brain injuries and tumors often suffer from. Yorkton native Ian Kohlert is among those who have the condition, and he has written a book to help others cope with it.

Kohlert began to suf-fer from the condition after going through treatment for a brain tumor. He says he want-ed to focus on people with severe mental fatigue because he thought the system he developed to deal with his condition could help others.

The book focuses on techniques and tips to better deal with mental

fatigue, Kohlert says, with an emphasis on the importance of actually resting the brain, which Kohlert refers to in the book as Silence. He says it’s something that it took him years to figure out, but that it makes a real difference for mental fatigue.

“Silence is the avoid-ance of things like TV, music or reading. People with mental fatigue real-ly need to rest their brains. Things they view as resting like watching TV really aren’t resting, so sitting in silence for periods of time can really help.”

An unconventional technique is something he calls Brain Breathing, a visualization exercise where one visualizes the

brain itself breathing in and out as they breathe.

“I’m not exactly sure why it’s helpful, but I find it very replenishing for my mental energy.”

While the book is focused on people with severe mental fatigue, Kohlert says some of the tips can be helpful for people with other condi-tions. He notes that his grandmother, who has Parkinson’s Disease, has been helped by avoiding something he calls “Cheap Data,” easy to consume information that is still mentally stimulating.

Part of the reason for writing the book is that while there are many resources out there for people with severe men-tal fatigue, he found

many of the things in his own recovery were things he didn’t expect.

“I’ve found that theydon’t emphasize things that were very importantfor my recovery... Stayinghydrated is an incredibly important thing, but that was never said to me, and I never found it in any resource that I foundonline.”

Kohlert has been invited to speak atacquired brain injury conferences about the work and has distributed copies of his book to peo-ple who work in the field,in the hopes that it can help people with the same condition.

Kohlert’s book is avail-able at www.aestusfutur-i s t i c s . c o m / m e n t a l -fatigue-book/.

The provincial Ombudsman wants to con-nect to other communities and educate people about the function of the office. Mary McFadyen, Saskatchewan’s Ombuds-man, was part of the office’s trip to Yorkton on October 27.

The goal of the trip is to connect with communities outside of Regina and Saskatoon where the main office is, in order to better meet the needs of the peo-ple of the province. They also held an information

session to educate the public on what it is the Ombudsman does.

“What we try to do is bring our home office to another city... It’s impor-tant to realize that we get complaints from all over the province.”

The Ombudsman takes complaints about different government agencies, act-ing as an impartial, inde-pendent agency to exam-ine the complaint and work towards a fair reso-lution.

“We look at the facts, we’re neutral and impar-tial, we’re not on the gov-ernment’s side or the com-

plainant’s side, and we see if they have been treated unfairly.”

McFadyen believes that the Ombudsman pro-vides a valuable service, one that becomes increas-ingly relevant year after year.

“I don’t think we realize on a day to day basis how many government deci-sions affect our day to day lives. Ombudsmen in gen-eral have become more and more prevalent in our society since WWII because there have been more and more govern-ment services which affect us with their decisions.”

It was a busy day, with a steady number of people making complaints to the office. However, if some-one believes they were treated unfairly but it was not possible for someone to make a complaint during the day, McFadyen encour-ages them to make a com-plaint by phone at 1-800-667-9787 or online at ombudsman.sk.ca.

Given that it is November, we will soon be hear-ing the distinctive sound of snowmobiles echoing through the city. For some, it’s an annoyance, because some people can’t abide any loud noise, though I’d take a million snowmobiles over the sound of a train whistle. For others it’s the sound of money, as all those machines need gas and regu-lar maintenance, not to mention the tourism dol-lars from the riders coming to town. Most impor-tantly, it’s the sound of a town that is embracing what it has to offer.

Yorkton has been uncommonly kind to the snowmobile, not every city allows them within city limits. But it makes sense for the city to embrace the machines because it has a unique opportunity. The season is short in most places, but relatively long here, north of the border. We also tend to get a lot of snow, and even with milder winters we remain a place that gets covered in the stuff. We have a lot of space, given that it’s still a largely rural area, but we’re also not really remote, so if something goes wrong mechanically riders aren’t stuck without a way to get parts. We have a place which is inherently good for people who want to embrace a winter sport in general, but is uncom-monly suited to be a snowmobiling destination. That we’ve actually embraced this is a smart

move.Being well suited for something doesn’t neces-

sarily mean the idea is going to be embraced or followed up on. The best location in the world is not going to mean anything if you’re not actually doing anything with it. The local snowmobile club, the SnoRiders, spends a great deal of time and effort maintaining the trails that surround the city, and they have developed a very good working relation-ship with the city itself, which is part of the reason why it’s been uncommonly kind to the machines. Add to that marquee charitable events, like the Easter Seals Snowarama, and we’ve got a town that also has positioned snowmobile enthusiasts as good people as well, no matter how loud their toys are.

It’s as much an image thing as anything else, we’ve got a group of people who do good things for the area, because they want to improve the state of their preferred winter pastime. As a result, the area benefits, as people are employed by local busi-nesses, money comes in for local charities and the city in general gets something to do in the depths of winter. They mostly want to ride, but in doing so they make their own hobby a vital part of the city as a whole, and give the city a distinctive sound in the middle of winter.

Not all of us ride, for whatever reason, but it’s nice to see that other people can benefit from some-one else’s hobby. Snowmobiles are not the only hobby that we can say this about either, there are plenty of hobbies which wind up benefiting the entire town by the people dedicated to them. But, it’s November, and being that winter is coming there are undoubtedly people annoyed by the dis-tinct sound of a snowmobile in their neighbour-hood, getting ready for the first major snowfall of the year. And these people will likely complain about the noise to others, so they need a reminder that in this town we have a group of people with loud machines who have done good things for the community, so we should take the noise as a form of celebration.

ATV regulations a tricky subject

Sask borrows $2.7 million every day

The Saskatchewan All Terrain Vehicle Association is calling for more regulation when it comes to ATVs in the province. They argue that there needs to be some kind of safety training to prevent injuries and deaths on the vehicles. They have a point, there have been over 1,000 hospital admissions due to ATV injuries since 2009, and eight ATV-related deaths in Saskatchewan this year. The current lack of regulation is not working, so some kind of safety course should be considered.

The problem is how we actually approach this in Saskatchewan, where the ATV has become a fairly integrated part of a lot of farms and businesses. Introducing a new set of regulations and training requirements would require an implementation that takes into account just how many people would require it. There could be programs through schools for new drivers, of course, but we are dealing with a province that does make heavy use of the machines, so we would have to plan the implementation of any safety program-ming very carefully just to ensure that people are not overwhelmed. Once the programs are put in place, it will be easy to reach all of the potential drivers, look at boat safety and driv-ers education programs for examples of that. However, there are thousands of current users who would not be reached by those programs, and requiring them to take a safety program would overwhelm any planned programs that are in place.

There is also the matter of enforcement, mainly because of the way they are used for many people in the province. Most are used as a supplementary vehicle on private property, where people are more prone to be lax on safety regulations and better able to skirt reg-istration requirements. They are also used as a low-speed alternative for people who are not old enough to drive or otherwise unable to get a driver’s license to get around. Any regula-tions would need to keep in mind this usage, and consider that they are lower speed and not commonly allowed on public roads any-way. This also would have to be reflected in the content of any safety course.

This is not saying that increased regula-tions or safety courses are not a good idea, of course, the number of people who are injured each year are a reminder that this is some-thing which we need to keep in mind in the province. But, if we want the regulations to work, we need to implement them in a way that keeps in mind how the machines are actually used in the province, and actually reaches the people who are most likely to need to learn about how to ride safely. Saying we need regulations is accurate, but actually putting any such regulations into practice is surprisingly tricky.

REGINA, SK: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) is bringing its historic National Debt Clock to Saskatchewan to display the provincial debt for the first time in nearly two decades.

The Debt Clock has been refitted to display the provincial debt, which since April 1 has been increasing at a rate of $2.7 million every day.

“Right now Saskatchewan is financially strong, but the provincial deficit is driving our debt up by nearly $2.7 million every day,” said Todd MacKay, Prairie Director for the CTF. “The problem is that spending has crept up too high. The good news is that we can get back on track with truly balanced budgets if we trim spending by a few percentage points.”

While Saskatchewan’s overall financial pos-ition is strong, there are some concerning num-bers taxpayers need to watch:

Saskatchewan plans to borrow up to $700 million this year for infrastructure;

A projected operational deficit of $292 million;By the end of this fiscal year, the debt is pro-

jected to be more than $5.7 billion; and,Since 2007-08, provincial spending has

increased 12.6 per cent even after accounting

for inflation and population growth.If the Saskatchewan government trims pro-

jected spending by 1 per cent each year for three years for a total of 3 per cent it would save about $845 million – more than enough to pay for this year’s infrastructure investments.

“Nobody is arguing that the Saskatchewangovernment shouldn’t be spending on roads andschools, but that’s not the reason we have a deficit,” said MacKay. “We have a deficit becausewe’re not reprioritizing unnecessary spending topay for the things we need. Families and smallbusinesses often have to tighten their belts by two or three per cent – it’s time for the govern-ment to do the same.”

The Debt Clock will visit the following com-munities:

Nov. 3 – Weyburn, Estevan and Yorkton;Nov. 4 – Swift Current, Maple Creek and

Shaunavon;Nov. 5 – Humboldt, Melfort, and Prince

Albert; and,Nov. 6 – Rosetown, Kindersley, and North

Things I do with words...

To the Editor:

I know that it is an extremely popular activ-ity to deny the environ-mental crisis we are in. Somehow there has been a disconnect creat-ed between our human activity and environ-mental degradation. That disconnect has no greater example than the “clean coal” technol-ogy of Brad Wall’s gov-ernment.

Despite the propa-ganda about clean coal technology, burning coal never has been or ever will be clean. Solar gen-erated electricity is.

Mr. Wall has long championed clean coal technology for energy as opposed to renewable energy technology to the point that he has spent, reportedly, $1.4 billion tax dollars in his carbon capture program at Boundary dam. Construction setbacks,

persistent design and technical issues are forc-ing the Sask. Government to pay up to $18,000,000.00 before the end of the year because it cannot fulfill its carbon contract to oil extraction company, Cenovus.

If you take 1,400,000,000.00 and divide it by $20,000.00, which is approximately the cost of installing enough roof mounted solar electricity to power an average modern bun-galow, that would be 70,000 houses that could have free electrical pro-duction installed on those homes. That would be the equivalent of 82% of the houses in Regina. For fun let’s include the $18,000,000.00 in con-tract penalties and we can add 900 more hous-es for free production every time we have to pay that much in penal-ties. That is three or

four reserves.If we installed that

amount of solar the existing demand on our present aging generat-ing system would be reduced not just the equivalent of the kilo-watts generated by the sun. Additional savings are realized when ener-gy is produced on site as opposed to huge resis-tance losses in the hun-dreds of miles of trans-mition lines that brings the power from Boundary Dam to your house.

Local employment of Canadians to install solar to 70,900 homes would further stimulate the Sask. economy that the foreign employment being used for the car-bon capture program does not.

This previous dialog is considered on the basis of Sask. Power still owning the entire system, solar included

for the 1.4 billion of your money it has spent. If Sask. power would offer progressive incentives to advance the solar industry individuals could own and generate as much electricity as they wanted to, selling back the excess to Sask. power at a profit.

The technology and cost of solar electricity is getting better, more effi-cient and cheaper every year. Solar energy is space age technology with a bright, clean, rapidly expanding, end-less and renewable future. Another wonder-ful thing is that solar is only one way of creating clean environmental saving energy. There are many clean, renewable energy options.

Do the math. Consider our Grandchildren.

The Alberta government recently abandoned the province’s single 10 per cent tax rate on personal income in favour of a five-bracket sys-tem with a top rate of 15 per cent - a move that will reduce Alberta’s competitiveness and cause undue harm on an already struggling economy.

While increasing tax rates on upper-income earners might seem like an easy way to bring in more revenue, the government will receive much less than expected if it fails to recognize that increasing tax rates causes people to alter their behaviour.

There is broad agreement in economic lit-erature that increasing tax rates - particu-larly on upper income earners - leads people to change their behaviour in ways that miti-gate the impact of the tax increases. This can come in many forms: taking more leisure time, accepting more compensation as tax-favourable fringe benefits, incorporating as a business to take advantage of lower tax rates, and shifting income to, or perhaps even moving to, a lower tax jurisdiction.

Upper-income earners, in particular, are bet-ter positioned to take advantage of a variety of tax-saving mechanisms already available in the tax code. This is why a 2010 federal Department of Finance study found that tax filers in the top 1 per cent reduced their reported incomes by 0.72 per cent for every 1 per cent increase in income taxes.

For a prominent real-life example of tax rate hikes failing to generate the expected amount of additional revenue, consider the United Kingdom experience. In 2010, the government increased the top marginal income tax rate to 50 per cent, but later found that while the rate increase was initially projected to bring in £2.5 billion, it actually raised less than £1 billion, prompting the government to reduce the rate.

It’s critical to understand that tax revenue depends on two components: the base, which is the income derived from the activity being taxed, and the rate. Multiplying the two togeth-er gives us the “tax take” or the revenue the government receives from a specific tax.

Unfortunately, pundits and politicians often fail to realize that the base and the rate aren’t entirely independent of each other. Tax rate increases change people’s behaviour, which can reduce the tax base. Multiplying a lower tax base by a higher tax rate won’t necessarily lead to an overall increase in revenue - or it could generate less additional revenue than expected.

A recent Fraser Institute study estimates how much revenue the Alberta government can reasonably expect from its tax rate hikes. The study compares two forecasting models: one that accounts for behavioural changes and one that does not - the method most often employed by governments.

In the latter model - where it’s assumed taxes from revenues will increase in exact proportion to tax rate increases - the Alberta government might expect an additional $6.7 billion from 2016 to 2020. But when behavioural responses are appropriately accounted for, the government will likely take in $5 billion in new revenue - a difference of $1.7 billion over the period. By 2025, the cumulative gap between the two mod-els is estimated to grow to $5.1 billion.

Put simply, if government fail to account for the behavioural effects spurred by its personal income tax rate hikes, they could be in for larger deficits and more debt than already planned.

Steve Lafleur is a senior policy analyst and Charles Lammam is the director of fiscal stud-ies at the Fraser Institute. The study, Alberta’s Personal Income Tax Increases Likely to Yield Less Revenue than Expected, is available at www.fraserinstitute.org.

Raising taxes not a guarantee of

higher revenues

Problems with carbon capture

Saskatchewan is still at the top of the economic class, but there are signs its grades may slip. Two bond rating agencies recently issued report cards for Saskatchewan’s finances and they weren’t anything to write home about.

Bond rating agencies provide credit ratings for governments that are similar to credit scores for individuals. When individ-uals rack up too much debt, their credit score takes a hit and lend-ers will increase interest rates on new loans. It’s the same for governments – those that borrow too much see their credit ratings downgraded and their interest rates go up.

Saskatchewan got a AAA rat-ing from bond rating agency Standard and Poor’s (tied for tops with Alberta and B.C.), but the agency said that may change for the worse in its release on Oct. 8.

“We are revising the outlook on the Province of Saskatchewan to negative from stable, reflect-ing our expectations that Saskatchewan’s budgetary per-formance could weaken in the next two years as a result of the deterioration in oil prices,” said Standard and Poor’s in its release. “The affirmation [of the AAA rating] reflects our view of the province’s strong exceptional liquidity, very low tax-supported debt burden, and very strong economy.”

Standard and Poor’s also recalculated Saskatchewan’s bal-ance sheet to include all of its income and expenses.

“[Saskatchewan’s] after-cap-ital deficit widened to about 4.5 per cent of adjusted operating revenues in fiscal 2015,” said Standard and Poor’s. It went on to project a rating downgrade if oil prices continue to slump or that 4.5 per cent rises to 5 per cent.

Saskatchewan maintained its AA rating (just below Alberta’s AAA rating and B.C.’s AA-high rating), according to bond rating agency DBRS’s analysis released on Oct. 5.

“[Saskatchewan’s] sound fiscal management, low debt burden and resilient economy support the strong credit profile,” said DBRS.

DBRS also noted that the Saskatchewan government announced a budget surplus of $107 million, but after DBRS included all costs, including pen-sion liabilities and capital costs, it found something different.

“On a DBRS-adjusted basis this translates to a deficit of $1.6 billion,” said DBRS. It went on to project that Saskatchewan’s debt will rise from 14.9 per cent of GDP to 19 per cent by 2018-19.

The Saskatchewan govern-ment acknowledged the need for spending cuts when it announced an operating deficit of $292 mil-lion. However, the government is still going ahead with more than $700 million in borrowing to fund infrastructure projects this year. Saskatchewan is spending more per capita than Manitoba and the Saskatchewan Party govern-ment is spending more than the previous NDP government even after accounting for inflation and

population growth.Even more concerning, the

Saskatchewan budget makes it clear the government plans to continue borrowing for the fore-seeable future. Next year the province is projecting a surplus of $121 million after putting $100 million into the contingency fund. But that changes when the cap-ital spending is included. Even if the surplus and savings are used, the province plans to spend $764 million more than it has in pro-jected revenues.

The last Sask. Party election platform included a commitment to: “reduce debt and balance the budget.” It seems that commit-ment won’t be part of the next platform.

The report cards are clear. Yes, we’re doing better than other prov-inces, but that’s partly because they’re running massive deficits compared to our more modest borrowing. And yes, our economy is strong, but it took hard work to build this strength and increasing debt will take us backward. It’s time to take a hard look at the books and cut spending.

What goes up must come down. It does not take a rocket scientist to understand this.

The latest estimates put the number of artifi-cial satellites orbiting the Earth at over six thousand. About half are active communica-tions, weather, naviga-tion, research and enter-tainment satellites, and the International Space Station. The other half are space junk made up of old, inactive satellites and launch units such as rocket boosters.

Since the Soviet Union launched Sputnik One in October of 1957, nine countries and a few consortiums have joined the space race, with the USA leading the pack.

On a clear night, you can see a satellite cross over-head every few minutes.

Around twenty after midnight (our time) on November 13th, the Earth is going to be struck by something. We’re not sure what, but them who are really good at math are pretty sure it came from here.

For safety, we actual-ly make an effort to track all that stuff, but

this item isn’t on the list. There’s an old adage that says naming something unknown makes it more familiar, so the European Space Agency (ESA) named it WT1190F (aptly short-ened to WTF by some others).

From its current tra-jectory, and previous brief sightings the last few years, this object has an orbit that takes it

out beyond the Moon and back every three weeks or so. Its mass is very low and it’s more reflective than a rock would be, so the guess is a hollow metal structure a few meters across, like the upper stage of a rocket.

If all goes according to plan, most of whatev-er it is should burn up in a brief but spectacular trail around noon over the southern Indian Ocean. Whatever’s left will impact along a five kilometer stretch of water about 100 kilome-ters south of Sri Lanka. Just to be completely safe, boats normally in the area will be advised to be somewhere else.

The ESA’s Near Earth

Object Coordination Centre, tasked with tracking asteroids, com-ets and other space rocks that could potentially hit the Earth, will be using this event to evaluate their systems for when a real threat comes from space. That is a good thing.

What is not so good is that somebody labelled a rocket scientist should know better than to launch something with no idea of where it’s going to come down. With over three thou-sand space junk re-entries to go, plus those they haven’t told us about, there’s a chance you may, some day, get to see one of these from your own back yard.

Our community is mourning the passing of Nyle James following a brief battle with cancer. Nyle and Judy have lived in GSA for many years. Nyle was a carpenter who worked in many homes and businesses in GSA as well as surrounding com-munities. He was presi-dent of our community association the years that our camp kitchen was built. He was the ulti-mate volunteer, who not only pretty well built the camp kitchen by himself, but also built many of the tables & benches that are at Spilchen Meadows. He also published our local phone lists for years. Our sincere condolences go out to his wife Judy, and daughters Sara, Kristi and Erin, and their fami-lies. We will miss him!

The Hamlet Board has had to change the proce-dure for residents to apply for Development Permits and Building Permits as we have had more than one landowner place small buildings either on property that did not belong to them or did not meet the set back distance as indicated on the RM of Good Lake Zoning and Building Bylaws. These changes take place effective imme-diately.

Buildings of less than 100 sq. feet

All buildings of this size require a Development Permit. Application for a Development Permit can be found on the RM of Good Lake web site:

HYPERLINK “http://www.goodlakerm.com/zoning.html”http://www.goodlakerm.com/zoning.html. The application must be submitted to the Hamlet Board for approv-al of site location. There is no charge for this ser-vice.

Failure to acquire a Development Permit may result in a cease and desist order from the RM until such an application is submitted and the site location approved by the Hamlet Board.

Buildings over 100 sq. feet in size

All buildings over 100 sq. feet and any structur-al renovation must make application for a Development Permit. Application for a Development Permit can be found on the RM of Good Lake web site: HYPERLINK “http://www.goodlakerm.com/zoning.html”http://www.goodlakerm.com/zoning.html. The application must be submitted to the Hamlet Board for approv-al of site location. This application must be accompanied with a $25.00 fee made payable to the RM of Good Lake. Once approved by the Hamlet Board, the appli-cation will be forwarded to the RM of Good Lake and an additional appli-cation for a Building Permit must then be sub-mitted to the RM of Good Lake. Once the Building Inspector has approved the application and the proper fees allocated, con-struction can begin.

Failure to acquire a Development Permit may result in a cease and desist order from the RM until such an application is submitted and approved.

Our recommendation is that if a resident of Good Spirit Acres is plan-ning on construction next season that you make application for the required permits as early as possible so that they can be approved and con-struction will not be delayed.

The Hamlet Board hopes that you under-stand these changes are for the protection of land-owners of this Hamlet. We thank you for your cooperation in this mat-ter.

Work in the Hamlet continues where Dale Cherewyk will clean out all cat tails etc. in front of culverts where needed in the Hamlet.

A Snow fence will be put up along Capilano Road.

Also Ducks Unlimited have looked after getting a large beaver dam cleaned out in the chan-nel connecting our water flow into Horseshoe lake which was stopping water flow from GSA.

The Community Association Christmas

Supper date has been changed to Dec. 5 because of the memorial for Nyle James being held in Regina on Nov. 21. The supper will be held at the Good Spirit Prov. Park Recreation Center. Caterers are 3 g.friends from Canora who served up such a good meal last year. Posters and new tickets will be out soon. Tickets are $25.00 per adult & can be purchased at the Good Spirit Market or from Lynn MacDonald, or Kelli Ann Ostafie. We STILL need volunteers to help set up the tables & decorate for the supper, as well as to run the bar. Donations, either mone-tary or non perishable food items will be collect-

ed at the Christmas sup-per for the Salvation Army.

The Community Association Christmas Greeting Board will again be assembled at the Good Spirit Market this month. The cards can be pur-chased at the store for $10.00 each. The money raised will stay in the community this year.

Good Spirit Market winter hours are Sun to Thurs. 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Friday & Sat. 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.. They are serv-ing lunches again this fall/winter. Groups please phone ahead! They are hoping for warm weather and lots of snow this win-ter, and look forward to seeing everyone.

The Great War Veterans Association (“GWVA”) was the largest and the most influential of the many Veterans groups. Formed in 1917, it comprised of more than 700 branches by 1925. In 1921

they started pressur-ing for the unification of all the various Veterans groups as being the best way to represent the many Veterans and their dependants.

By 1918—more than 15 veterans’ groups and regimental associations with common goals but fragmented and largely unsuccessful

The British Empire Service League (BESL)—founded in 1921 as coali-tion of Britain, Canada, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand and is

now known as the Royal C o m m o n w e a l t h Ex-Services League (RCEL) with 57 member organizations from 47 nations

1925—Appeal for Unity led to formation of Dominion Veterans Alliance

A Unity Conference was held in Winnipeg on November 25, 1925. From this conference emerged “The Canadian Legion of the BESL”, [commonly referred to as “The Canadian Legion”].

The Legion is orga-nized in 10 provinces in Canada, 5 US States, and branches are now being organized overseas.

Legion goals of provid-ing a strong voice for vet-erans and to advise the government shall be maintained.

The Legion has become a persuasive advocate for pension leg-islation, and other bene-fits such as treatment and appeals procedures, returned soldiers’ insur-ance and assistance for those with disabilities for veterans and their depen-dants, dealing directly wi th Federa l Government.

Legion is the largest of the many veterans Organizations in Canada with 370,000 members.

Major responsibility for the perpetuation of “REMEMBRANCE” in Canada through the Annual Poppy Campaign with a mission to ensure that the sacrifices made are never forgotten, and reminding Canadians of the 117,000 plus, men and women who gave

their lives in the wars and military missions around the world.

Poppy funds collected are used for assistance to veterans, ex-service members and their fami-lies who are in need.

1926 -- The Yorkton Branch of the Canadian Legion was granted a charter to operate as “The Yorkton, Saskatchewan Branch #77, The Canadian Legion, of the BESL, [British Empire Service League’.] Charter mem-bers included Messer’s Balfour, DeBalinhard, Schlitt, Eby, Williams, Regan Graham, Walker, Crosthwaite, Macleod, Taylor, Morrow, Scott, Kimber, and McMillan with General Alexander Ross as President.

The word “Royal” was

not added to the name until 1960, signifying rec-ognition of the Queen.

1930 -- The Royal Canadian Legion found-ed the Ladies Auxiliary on April 23rd.

On May 25th, Yorkton’s War Memorial was erected on Darlington Street.

1949 -- Erection of the War Memorial Monument in the City of Yorkton cemetery.

Over the years, and into the present time, the Yorkton Br. #77 of the Royal Canadian Legion has actively supported in various ways, innumera-ble local community ori-ented groups, organiza-tions and school projects. These include, but are not restricted to, health and senior’s institutions, and youth and young

people’s organizations.Funding and help isbased on individualapplications supportedby documentation andfinancial statements ifrequested. Final disposi-tion is made by aCommittee of the Boardof Directors and based onThe Legions ability tofulfill the request.

As a final note TheRoyal Canadian Legion isdedicated to perpetuat-ing the memory of thosewho gave their all to thecause of freedom and thesafeguarding of our wayof life in Canada and theworld over, and thosefamous words,

As a special presen-tation of the OPEN Cinema program the first screening of the new series is part of the Voices of Courage: Stories from the World War series that the YFF is hosting across Canada. This project has been made possible in part by the Government of Canada.

The goal of the event is to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the poem “In Flanders Fields” as well as the 70th Anniversary of the end of World War II. The timing is fitting given that that event occurs just before Remembrance Day.

The November Open Cinema screening will be of Front Lines, a nominee in the 2009 festival Documentary History category.

Front Lines by the National Film Board is a tribute to the combat-

ants in the First World War, this film traces the conflict through the war diary and private let-ters of five Canadian soldiers and a nurse. Hearing them, the lis-tener detects between the lines an unspoken horror censored by war and propriety. The film mingles war footage, historical photos and readings of excerpts from the diary and let-ters. The directorial tal-ent of Claude Guilmain breathes life into these 90-year-old documents and accompanying archival images so that we experience the human face and heart of the conflict.

Following the film, Saskatchewan histori-an Bill Waiser will give a presentation on the subject “Somehow, It Didn’t Seem Like War at All.”

Waiser is a fascinat-ing speaker. He taught

at the U of S as a histo-ry professor for 30 years, won the Saskatchewan Order of M e r i t , t h e

S a s k a t c h e w a n Centennial Medal and was author, co-author or editor of 14 books. He is entertaining and

knowledgeable. Waiser has given

over 200 talks on most-ly Saskatchewan or western Canadian top-ics to schools and librar-ies, conventions, clubs and organizations, pub-lic ceremonies, and con-ferences (from the Association of University Architects to the Aquatic Toxicology Workshop to the Japanese Association of Canadian Studies to the International Master Gardener Conference to the Royal Society of New Zealand to the UofS Alumni Association in Great Britain).

Known for his infor-mative and entertain-ing presentations, Waiser seeks to provide a better understanding and appreciation of Canadian History. He is particularly concerned with taking the story of Saskatchewan to a

wider audience.Waiser was the recip-

ient of the University of S a s k a t c h e w a n Distinction in Outreach and Public Service Award in 2013.

The film presenta-tion is a perfect oppor-tunity to come out and c o m m e m o r a t e Remembrance Day, theCanadian soldiers we honour for fighting for our country, and the sacrifices made duringWorld War Two. Join us for an evening of filmand talk Tuesday, November 10th at7:00pm at the YorktonPublic Library.

Open Cinema Passports will be hand-ed out at this event. Bring your passport toeach screening and at the final screening, peo-ple who have attendedeveryone will be enteredin a draw to win tickets to our popular Lobsterfest event!

To CommemorateToday we gather to honour the

role of Canada in the two World Wars. The film, Trenches is but one way. It tells a story of persistence and courage in the face of adversi-ty. This film, though, is but one way to commemorate. A second way is the many monuments across Canada and even overseas, monu-ments that remind us on a daily basis of a Canadian identity forged, at least in part, on the European battlefield.

Let us begin in Ottawa. In 2000, Canadians saw for the first time the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the Remembrance Day Ceremony. That year, there were the usual traditions –the military parade, the wreaths, the prayers, taps and reveille and most impor-tantly our respected veterans. As the ceremony came to an end, it

was expected that people would go home. But no, that wasn’t what happened. To the astonishment of all, hundreds of Canadians made their way to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. They took their poppies from their jackets, stretched out their hands and left the blood-red symbol of remem-brance on the monument. Unplanned, it was simply the ges-ture of a people showing respect for those who had fought that Canada might live in freedom.

Yet the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is just one monument to illustrate our gratitude and respect. Across Canada, there are cenotaphs in many cities, in many towns. Our cenotaph, installed in 1930, is located on Darlington Avenue across from the Court House.Yorkton citizens raised the necessary funds, making donations large and small. These monuments stand in quiet recognition of war

time loss and to pride in the Canadian contribution and the nation itself.

Canadians also look to another monument – not in Canada but in far off France. At a national his-toric site on foreign soil stands the Vimy National War Memorial. It reminds us that more than 11,000 Canadian soldiers killed in France in World War One have no known graves.

The site for the monument has developed its own particular sig-nificance. For the first time at Vimy, all four Canadian divisions fought together on the same battle-field. They were led by Sir Arthur William Currie. He determinedly kept the Canadian divisions togeth-er rather than having them mixed in with various British units. One soldier wrote home:

“Dear Mother, I looked to the right and left. All

I could see was Canadians. By five

o’clock, Vimy Ridge was ours. And Mother, I thought, we are a nation. This is us.”

By the end of the First World War, most Canadians believed they had done important and difficult things together. The Canadian Corps had achieved a first-class reputation. They had played an obvious role in victory.

Today we recognize the military importance of the First World War but more importantly we recognize its importance for our nation. On the battlefields of Europe, we came to be accepted as an independent nation. We saw ourselves as Canadian.

Today we commemorate the sac-rifices of World War One. Thanks to the heroes of that horrendous con-flict, we stand together as proud Canadians, an independent coun-try, looking down a road to free-dom and a pathway to peace.

10 Quick facts about Remembrance Day1. Remembrance

Day was first observed in 1919 throughout the Br i t i sh Commonwealth.

It was originally called “Armistice Day” to commemorate armistice agreement that ended the First World War on Monday, November 11, 1918, at 11 a.m. – on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

2. From 1921 to 1930, Armistice Day was held on the Monday of the week in which November 11 fell.

In 1931, Alan Neill, Member of Parliament for Comox–Alberni, introduced a bill to observe Armistice Day only on November 11. Passed by the House of Commons, the bill also changed the name to “Remembrance Day”. T h e f i r s t Remembrance Day was observed on November 11, 1931.

3. Every year on November 11, Canadians pause in a moment of silence to honour and remem-ber the men and women who have served, and continue to serve Canada dur-ing times of war, con-flict and peace.

We remember the more than 1,500,000 Canadians who have served throughout our nation’s history and the more than 118,000 who made the ultimate sacrifice.

4. The poppy is the s y m b o l o f Remembrance Day. Replica poppies are sold by the Royal Canadian Legion to provide assistance to Veterans.

5. Remembrance Day is a federal statu-tory holiday in Canada.

It is also a statuto-ry holiday in three territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut) and in six provinces (British Columbia, Alberta,

Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador).

6. The national cer-emony is held at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. The Governor General of Canada presides over the ceremony.

It is also attended by the Prime Minister, other government officials, representa-tives of Veterans’ organizations, diplo-matic representa-

tives, other dignitar-ies, Veterans as well as the general public.

7. In advance of the ceremony, long col-umns of Veterans, Canadian Armed Forces members, RCMP officers, and cadets march to the memorial lead by a pipe band and a colour guard.

At the end of the ceremony, they march away to officially close the ceremony.

8. Some of the 54 Commonwealth mem-

ber states, such as Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia, observe the tradit ion o f Remembrance Day on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

Other nations observe a solemn day but at different dates. For example, ANZAC Day is observed in New Zealand on April 25.

In South Africa, Poppy Day is marked on the Sunday that

falls closest to November 11.

9. Many nations that are not members of the Commonwealth also observe Remembrance Day on November 11, includ-ing France, Belgium and Poland.

10. The United States used to com-memorate Armistice Day on November 11.

However, in 1954 they changed the name to Veterans Day.

Poppy: A long standing traditionWearing a red poppy

for Remembrance Day on November 11 has been a tradition in this country for 90 years now. The white poppy, dating from 1933, has recently resurfaced, however. It is a way to remember the civilian victims of war. The two complement each other: the red for those who died for their country, the white for the hope of peace.

Did you know that behind these poppy campaigns, both past and present, are some very committed women? The adoption of the poppy as a sym-bol of remembrance has

international origins. The first person to use it in this way was Mrs. Moina Michael, a staff member of the American Overseas YMCA, during the last year of the First World War. In April 1920 she led a stirring campaign to have the poppy rec-ognized as the official symbol of remembrance by the American Legion. At the same time, Mrs. Anna Guérin, from France, became an ardent defender of the poppy as the symbol that would help all citizens remember those who died in the war.

The efforts of these

two ladies were not in vain. The first “poppy day” was held on November 11, 1921, in France as well as in Commonwealth coun-tries. Ninety years later, the poppy is still a reminder to us all. But we mustn’t forget that on November 11, 1933, the Women’s Cooperative Guild in the United Kingdom launched the white poppy campaign, sym-bolizing the will to work towards creating a world without vio-lence, to resolve con-flicts peacefully, and to remember civilian vic-tims of war.

First Remembrance day was 1918Remembrance Day on

November 11 commemo-rates the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the year 1918. This is when the Armistice was signed and is also the date marking the official end of the First World War. To commemo-rate this day, you are invit-ed to participate in the annual Poppy Campaign, the Royal Canadian Legion’s main source of fundraising, which allows this organization to contin-ue its work with veterans in need.

Nowadays, Remem-brance Day includes all wars that have occurred since the Great War. Indeed, there has not been a single day since 1918 that has not been marked by a war or armed conflict somewhere on this planet. So, to put an end to all wars, people across the country wear poppies in their lapels and decorate war memorials with

wreaths and bunches of poppies on November 11.

Why poppies? Because this red flower recalls the famous poem “In Flanders Fields,” written by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae during the First World War. This is the most frequently read and quoted poem about war. It is the mention of poppies in the first and last verses that has turned this flower into an emblem of remembrance and a symbol of new growth in the devastation left by war.

We must all remember the terrible toll wrought by the First World War: the death of 16.5 million peo-ple, including 9.7 million military personnel. The Second World War, the bloodiest conflict in our his-tory, saw the deaths of 60 million souls, one third of which were mili tary per-sonnel.

Each year, from November 5 to 11, hundreds of commemora-tive ceremonies and events will take place across the country to commemorate Veterans’ week. These are opportunities for all Canadians to recognize the con-tribution our Veterans have made and to honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice on behalf of Canada.

There are so many ways to remember and honour our Veterans:

• Wear a poppy.• Attend your local

Remembrance Day ceremony on November 11.

• Thank a Veteran by sending a postcard for peace (www.veter-ans.gc.ca).

• Teachers – order some free learning materials and use the Veteran’s Affairs (VA) Teacher’s Guide to lead your classroom on a remembrance journey.

• Students – read one of the VA remembrance newspapers written just for K-2, K-Grade 6 and for Grade 7 and above.

• Talk to a friend or relative who served with the Canadian Armed Forces in Afghanistan or in other areas of conflict.

• View the VA Heroes Remember videos and listen to Veterans talk about their experi-ences.

• Plant your own Garden of Remembrance.

• Visit the VA remembrance challenge page where you will find videos and images you can use to create a mashup, build a virtual scrapbook, a fan site or just decorate your own Web

space. Share what you build with others and link back to the VA site.

• Use Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Instagram and Flickr and show you remember Canada’s Veterans. Post photos, videos, and messages using the hashtags #ShowYou Remember and #ShowYour Thanks.

• Visit the VA social media page.

However you choose to remember Canada’s Veterans, be sure to share it with everyone you know. Together, it is our duty to pass on our gratitude and keep their legacy and memories alive. This Veterans’ Week, show you remember.

We will remember... let us count the ways


The year is 1950. The Second World War is over. The United Nations (UN) has been in place for just five years, and is working to promote global peace and security. Canada is brimming with opti-mism as Canadians look forward to a prosperous and peaceful second half of the 20th century. Suddenly, an interna-tional crisis is brewing in the Korean peninsula and people, the world over, are holding their collective breath. What happens next is history.

At the end of the Second World War, Japan’s empire was dis-mantled and the Soviet Union, seeking to gain influence in the region, occupied North Korea while the Americans moved into South Korea. The Soviets and the Americans eventually left, but not until a com-munist government had been established in the North and a democratic government in the South. Tensions between the two Koreas grew to a climax and, on June 25, 1950, the military forces of North Korea crossed the 38th Parallel into South Korea. This marked the beginning of hostilities which were to rage on for more than three years, throughout the country known to its people as the Land of the Morning Calm.

The UN, created to resolve conflict between member nations primar-ily through dialogue and

negotiation, also had the flexibility to use force in the pursuit of peace. The situation in Korea would require armed intervention, and 16 member nations, includ-ing Canada, would con-tribute military forces under United States command.

Initial advances of North Korean troops reached Seoul, the capi-tal of South Korea, but a September 1950 UN sea landing at Seoul’s port of Inchon forced the North Koreans to retreat. Seoul was re-captured by UN Forces, which then crossed the 38th Parallel, moving toward the Chinese bor-der. Chinese forces intervened with a mas-sive offensive that drove the UN and South Korean Armies back across the 38th Parallel to southern positions along the Imjin River.

In mid-February 1951, units from Canada, Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand and India joined to form one Commonwealth Force, as part of a north-eastern advance toward the 38th Parallel. Korea, a rugged country with hills, swamps and rice fields, also has periods of severe seasonal weather which ham-pered combat opera-tions. By the end of March, Canadian troops were in the Kapyong Valley and in mid-April UN Forces were again north of the 38thParal-lel.

Western politicians debated invading China at the risk of expanding the war, but decided against such action and in late April 1951, with new troops and equip-ment, Chinese and North Korean forces struck in the western and west-central sec-tors. The aggressive Chinese advance forced US troops in the area to move back or risk being overrun by the enemy. Canadian and other Commonwealth troops entered the battle in the Kapyong Valley and helped the Americans retreat to safety. The Canadians were award-ed a US Presidential Citation for this gallant action.

Early in July 1951, ceasefire negotiations began. However, there would be two more years of fighting until the signing of the Armistice at Panmunjom on July 27, 1953. The uneasy truce which followed left Korea a divided country, yet the first UN inter-vention in history effec-tively stopped the aggression, and the UN emerged from the crisis with enhanced prestige.

As with the two world wars that preceded Korea, Canadians vol-unteered for military service far from home. More than 26,000 Canadians served in the Korean War, including sailors from eight destroyers and airmen who took part in many combat and transport

missions. Canada’s mili-tary contribution was larger, in proportion to its population, than most other UN partici-pants.

Canada, as a nation, owes an everlasting debt of gratitude to those young men and women who, in the prime of their youth, have served and continue to serve their country to pre-serve global peace and protect fundamental human rights. Many made the ultimate sacri-fice, and lie buried in countries far from their homes and loved ones. Many have returned from service with inju-ries to body and mind that they must carry with them for the rest of their lives. The names of

516 Canadians who died in service during the conflict are inscribed in the Books of Remembrance located in the Peace Tower in Ottawa.

The collective experi-ences and stories of Canada’s Veterans pro-vide Canadians with a proud and lasting legacy that will continue into the country’s future. Remembering and reflecting on the signifi-cance of the contribution they made, and continue to make, strengthens the commitment to pre-serve the values for which they fought.

The Korean War marked a new stage in Canada’s development as a nation. Since the end of the war, Canada

has contributed to manymilitary operations around

The Canada Remem-bers Program of Veter-ans Affairs Canada en -courages all Canadians to learn about the sacri-fices and achievements made by those who haveserved—and continue toserve—during times of war and peace. As well,it invites Canadians tobecome involved in remembrance activities that will help preserve their legacy for futuregenerations.

Ken LavigneThe road to Carnegie Hall

with Ken Lavigne: A “Stars For

Saskatchewan” performance presented by the Yorkton Arts Council,

Sunday, November 8, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. in the Anne Portnuff Theatre, Yorkton Regional High

School. Singer Ken Lavigne has

charmed his way into the hearts of concert goers across North America

with his sincere delivery of ballads, show tunes and classical crossover

hits in the style of Andrea Bocelli and Josh Groban. Backed by his band, Ken takes his audience on a riveting and enchanting journey retelling his per-sonal campaign to sing at

the world famous Carnegie Hall with the

New York Pops Orchestra. It’s a unbeliev-

able account of a man who, against all odds

found a way to live out his dream of singing on the world’s most presti-gious concert stage. Told with spectacular songs and entertaining and hilarious stories Ken

embodies the spirit of the underdog – audacity,

tenacity, tragedy and ulti-mately … triumph.

www.kenlavigne.comTickets are available at

the Yorkton Arts Council, 306-783-8722, online at www.ticketpro.ca or at

the door.
