The end of the GX94 Star Search competition, there can be only one win-ner, and this year the honor went to Karissa Hoffart.

This is the first time Hoffart has ever won a competition, and she admits that she had diffi-culty processing the fact that she got the prize.

“It is so unreal, I never even thought anything like this would ever hap-pen... I’ve never, ever won a competition, I’ve always got in second or third, and I found that I just kept trying, and it happened.”

Hoffart currently lives in Regina, where she has just completed her first year of Nursing, but is originally from the village of Minton, SK.

It’s the twenty fifth year of the competition, and Hoffart says that they’re an inspiration to her as she uses the com-petition win as a stepping stone to get her name out there and build a music career.

She says it’s an honor to be counted as one of the winners of Star Search.

“I’m just so lucky to part of that group, I can’t even imagine. I watch Jess Moskaluke on TV and see her videos, to think that could be me I can’t even imagine.”

That stepping stone includes the chance to record a single for radio airplay. Hoffart knows she wants to have original songs, and while she has some originals ready she plans to make something fresh for the recording session.

While she was the win-ner this year, Hoffart says that she wants the best for all of the other singers in the competition, and says that she wants to see them continue to push and keep trying. This was the fourth Star Search that she has taken part in, reaching the finals each year.

“When you first start, don’t be disappointed if you don’t make it... It took me four years and a lot of disappointment, but it

was worth it.”Each person on stage

had two songs to make an impression, with Hoffart singing “Girl in a Country Song” by Maddie and Tae and “Stay” by Sugarland.

She says song selection is key.

“You want to be able to have fun with it. You don’t want a song you’re not into, you want to show the audience what you’re feel-ing. That’s really what I tried to do with those two songs I sang tonight.”

The competition was entirely women in 2015,and Hoffart says that she’s proud to be part of the group on stage and part of a strong group of female singers in the province.

“It’s something to be proud of. We all stick together and a lot of the performers I am very good friends with, and I can’t wait to watch them win itas well.”

While it was a competi-tion, Hoffart thinks that it’s more about bringing together the province’s singers, and she says for her it’s about meeting other musicians and sup-porting each other, as Star Search brings them together.

THE GX94 STAR SEARCH champion for 2015 is Karissa Hoffart, pictured above signing “Girl in a Country Song” by Maddie and Tae. As the winner, Hoffart gets a cus-tom belt buckle, a new acoustic guitar and the opportunity to record two songs as a single and for radio airplay.

Nerveless Nocks bring stunts to the fair

By DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

It’s rare that a busi-ness stays in the family through multiple gen-erations, but the Nerveless Nocks have

been a family act since it began in 1854. The stunt crew was at the Yorkton Exhibition Summer Fair, thrilling crowds with their height-defying act.

Michaelangelo Nock

is the eighth generation of the Nock family, and he says that for them it’s about the tradition of performing. Beyond their family show, they have been involved in Ringling Brothers and

Cirque du Soleil.The point is to make

the show look more dangerous than it actu-ally is, having a bit of educated risk

Discarded photos resurrected for art showBy DEVIN WILGERN-R Writer

A picture might say a thousand words, but it doesn’t necessarily tell the full story. Partial Identities, now running at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery, fea-tures two North Dakota artists, Ryan Stander and Jessica Christy, exploring found objects and photographs to look at ideas of identity and history.

The genesis for the show began in two plac-es. In Cyprus, where Stander worked at a museum as an artist in residence, he was struck by sheer amount of pottery archived in the back room, shelves upon shelves of it cata-loged after archaeologi-cal digs.

The photos them-selves began with a school photo from 1955 that Stander found on the floor of a mall and kept with him. It became an art project when Stander found a shoebox of old photos at a flea market, and found it to be sad that the photos themselves were now discarded artifacts of the people who owned them.

“There was a simi-larity between the pot-tery and these lost pho-tographs, that was the impetus for putting it in archival form. In a way I’m more of a cura-tor of images.”

He says that for many people there is a strong sense of loss, because the photos have become disassoci-ated with the people in

the photos and their stories.

“I’m trying to get people to think about memory, the loss of memory, and what are the photographs them-selves and what is going to happen to your photographs when you leave this place.”

The photos are large-ly sourced from eBay, and Stander says that he will buy large bags of photos at a time, sometimes buying thousands in a single auction, paying an average of eleven cents per image.

Those images are handled in various dif-ferent ways, whether making different styles of print or collecting them in various differ-ent boxes. There are also trays where people can sort through the photos themselves, something Stander admits that was not his original intent, but driven by the fact that people could not resist handling the images.

“They’re handheld objects, so the more that I thought about it, it seemed like the right thing to do. Let people touch them and sort through them, have a first hand actual encounter with the work so they can recon-sider it. It’s not just a mental or visual engagement, but it’s a physical engagement with the object.”

There’s also a histo-ry of the medium wrapped up into the show as well, as the wide range of formats and printing methods

are represented through the show. With the world moving to an increasingly digital view of photography, rarely actually printing any images, Stander says it’s slowly becom-ing rare for people to actually handle photo-graphs.

“There was just so much more diversity in photo printing than what there is today.”

In spite of the sheer number of lost photos, nobody has ever found themselves in the images. Stander says if someone could prove it was them he would be

happy to give them the photo.

“These are really precious things, these photographs, and I feel as though I am just the caretaker right now. If I could reunite a family and its photos I would be really excited about that, but it’s never hap-

pened.”Partial Identities

runs until August 25 at the Godfrey Dean. Stander also says that he’s always on the hunt for photos to add to the project, and he can be found at www.ryanstander.com.

PARTIAL IDENTITIES explores found objects and discarded photos. Artist Ryan Stander (pictured) explains that he was inspired by a flea market box of pictures and working in museum archives in Cyprus.

Nerveless Nocks bring stunts to the fairCont.’ from Page 1A

but not doing anything so dangerous it could go too wrong. Nock says it’s as much about showmanship as it is about the stunts, part of a long tradition that stretches back to vaudeville.

The danger is still always there though, and Nock knows it.

“I’ve seen a lot of people get hurt, I’ve been lucky... You don’t really want to push it to the limit because you don’t want the kids to go home with a bad memory. We’re risking it just to the right amount so there are thrills, we don’t get hurt and they’re happy.”

One of the risks can be the weather, espe-

cially given that it’s an act that depends heav-ily on the performer’s balance.

“Wind is a big deal for your balance, espe-cially when you’re fifty, sixty feet in the air. No safety net or safety devices. I always tell the people it’s years of training, don’t try this at home, we’re experts and I know my limits. Then again, we’re just human so you can never tell what’s really going to happen.”

The family history is reflected in some of the stunts.

The tower of chairs, for example, was born in a high wire act that Nock’s uncle performed in the film Circus World, which involved balancing on a chair above a den of tigers.

The chairs in the tower are built on the specifications of the chairs his uncle used in his act.

It’s a family tradi-tion for the Nocks, but the tradition itself goes back far beyond them. While some of the newer acts have devel-oped with technology – the motorcycle globe for example grew with the development of the motorcycles themselves – many of them stretch back much further.

“A lot of these circus acts were invented in China over thousand years old... We’re all carrying on a tradition of keeping this art form going.”

That tradition is something not every-one can do, and Nock says that while there

are a few skills that can be taught it’s as much about being able to do the act without hesitation, something which you can’t really learn.

“You can’t really learn this stuff, it can’t be taught, a lot of it. It’s a generational thing, it’s in your

DNA.”There are very few of

these family acts left, and Nock says that they never know which generation will be the last one to go into the business. He’s proud to see his own daughter Angelina take part in the show, and mentions that outside of the fam-

ily act she’s also a world class water skier, and he’s proud to watch her continue the perform-ing tradition.

Nock has nothing but praise for the Yorkton Exhibition, and says that they clearly go all out to entertain the people of the area.

The Yorkton Exhibition Summer Fair got prehistoric, with a young dinosaur coming out to entertain kids. Prevo is a baby Tyrannosaurus Rex, and he was out to greet chil-dren over the course of the fair.

Richard Barker, T-Rex Wrangler and Founder and CEO of National Entertainment Group, says that the dinosaur has met thousands of kids, and only a small number being afraid of the dinosaur.

“They’re very brave here in Yorkton.”

It’s a big moment for dinosaurs in the world overall, with Jurassic World breaking box office records. Barker says that the kids have seen the movie, and that’s one of the reasons why it’s a kid magnet, as they want to get up close to what they’ve seen on the screen.

“There’s always some little kid that reacts in a different way. I think it’s a game changer in terms of memories, I really do.

These kids will always remember that they saw a T-Rex here in Yorkton, or wherever it might be, and the photograph of the kid next to the T-Rex I can guarantee is going to be shown at their wed-ding day and honestly it’s much bigger than having a picture with a pony or a horse.”

Of course, the dino-saurs died out millions of years ago, and while cloning might be possible in Jurassic Park in the real world you’re not going to be able to do it. Prevo is a custom made design which took a year to put together. Attention to detail was a major rea-son why they decided to do the design work them-selves, as they turned down many proposed versions because they didn’t feel they were real-istic enough.

“It’s a realistic replica of what they think a T-Rex looked like, it’s about as realistic as you’ll get, it’s really full-on.”

Being a dinosaur is hard work, and Barker says they can only go for an hour at a time simply due to the sheer physical

exertion that is required to perform. Barker admits that he would rather be outside than in the 25kg costume, which gets incredibly hot over the course of a perfor-mance.

“Not only is he sur-rounded by foam, but also silicone and a layer of rubber as well. There’s one little fan inside there but there’s no real venti-lation in there... It’s a natural weight loss pro-gram, if you want to lose weight be one of my dino-saurs!”

Actually performing as one of the dinosaurs is also a complicated pro-cess, as Barker explains.

“There is a metal frame inside, with bicy-cle handlebars and a braking system. Push the brake and the mouth opens and closes, push another brake and it blinks, then you have the roaring mechanism inside that has to sync with the mouth that you have to operate with a button. You can only see out the nose, so your view is very limited. Obviously you have to go up and down, left and right, tail sway and roar-

ing, so there’s a lot that goes into it.”

The limited view is also why a wrangler is necessary, to ensure the actor and kids all stay safe.

It’s a baby T-Rex for practical reasons, Barker says. As a touring show, they need something

that can fit in a trailer, and if you’re not taking a baby you can’t really take it from place to place. While Barker is aware of a full size T-Rexes in the world, specifically in Japan, he also says they stay in one place because touring is impossible when you get

that big.While this year is all

about the dinosaur, thenext project is already inthe works, with a detailedanimatronic gorilla cur-rently being developed. Ahighlight of this projectis the highly detailedface.

Kids get a chance to meet a baby T-Rex

PREVO, the baby T-Rex, meets kids at the Yorkton Exhibition Summer Fair.

COMPLETING THE CLUBHOUSE – The Yorkton Community Clubhouse project is racing towards completion, and Miccar Aerial/Good Spirit Air Service has gotten on board to support the project. Carol Yaholnitsky with Miccar Aerial/Good Spirit Air Service, presenting $500 to Jason Farrell of Yorkton Minor Football, says that they are all about family and the well being of kids, so they felt that this was a project they had to support within the community. She’s also impressed with the building so far, as well as the field and track at Century Field, and believes it will open up many opportunities for the city.

Fun times at the Yorkton Exhibition Summer Fair

Normally when someone dies you feel a sense of loss. Even if you don’t know that person, there’s still some kind of impact, as it remains a life that has ended. This is especially true if it’s a young person, as you also have the spectre of potential unfulfilled, a full and complete life ahead of them that they will never have the chance to experience. This is, somehow, not true when one contemplates the 22 year old from Maine who died last week trying to set fireworks off from his head.

I don’t want to say he deserved death, because that’s a harsh judgement. If he got what he deserved he’d still be injured, because you’re still talking about someone who thought it would be a great idea to launch fireworks from his body, burns are at a minimum required for that kind of grievous stupidity. That’s only because injury is seemingly the only way the terminally stupid will learn. If they can’t deduce that fire is hot, then burns are a lesson that would remind him, and potentially prevent more fireworks related injury in the future. Death also prevents any fireworks related injuries of course, but then launching fireworks from your head is easily the least intel-ligent way to do what has to be the least intelli-gent act that someone is going to attempt.

There will naturally be people who want to see fireworks sales banned in the wake of this, espe-cially fireworks which are powerful enough to kill a man. But this isn’t the case of children getting into them and hurting themselves, this is a grown man who, arguably, should have known better. If someone can’t deduce that starting your head on fire is dangerous, and possibly fatal, should we even be all that worried about their eventual, inevitable demise? If it’s not fireworks, they will just end themselves in another equally foolhardy manner. The person in question strapped explosives onto his head, on purpose, and lit them on fire. There is nothing you can do to save him.

There are a lot of warning labels in the world,

whether warning of obvious dangers or those which are a bit more subtle. It sometimes seems like the sheer number of such labels can lead to people becoming a lot less cognizant of actual danger. But the lesson here is that they exist for a reason, while it might be obvious to most of us that sticking your hand into a fan, drinking poi-son or starting your head on fire is a bad plan, there are people in the world who haven’t quite figured that out. If they continue to ignore the obvious warnings, is there anything we can do to save them? Or should we just let them go, shake our head, and admit that some people just aren’t equipped to make it in this world.

It is somewhat sad that this man is going out in a blaze of mockery, right after going out in a significantly more literal blaze of actual fire. Any sense of guilt I might have is assuaged by the fact that he did this to himself, on purpose, for rea-sons that might be lost to the mists of time but can generally be assumed to be quite stupid. If there is a lesson here, it’s not about treating fire-works with respect, because most people already do that. Instead, the lesson here is that there is no stopping some people from harming them-selves through aggressively stupid acts and maybe we shouldn’t even bother trying.

In the ongoing effort to bring transparency and accountability to Canada’s hundreds of aboriginal govern-ments, the name Wayne Louie should be remembered.

Wayne is a member of the Lower Kootenay Band, a First Nation of 235 people, half of whom live on a reserve near Creston, B.C.

In 2009, the band was paid $125,000 by the taxpayers of the Regional District of Central Kootenay for the use of a road that crosses the reserve. Flush with cash, the five-member band council secretly voted to pay themselves each a $5,000 bonus.

Two years went by before Wayne Louie discovered the payout. Unable to simply stand idly by, Wayne took the council to court to get the money back.

For years, he pushed his case forward. As it wound its way through the court system, Wayne relied on his nephew Rob for legal help, his brother Robert to chip in for filing fees, and Access Pro Bono, a non-profit law soci-ety, to help him argue his case.

While Wayne packed a sandwich and took a 15-hour bus ride from Creston to the Vancouver courthouse, the Lower Kootenay chief flew into town and ate out on his band’s dime.

There was nothing to gain personally for Wayne; he fought for his friends and neighbours to stop his polit-icians from benefitting based solely on their elected pos-itions. He did it because he felt it was the right thing to do.

Earlier this month, the B.C. Court of Appeal sided with Wayne Louie. In a landmark ruling, the court found the chief and four councilors had breached their duty to the band and ordered them to repay the money.

“This was a breach of fiduciary duty, even in the context of a relatively informal and custom-based gov-ernance structure,” wrote Justice Mary Newbury in her decision. “In my view, such a structure should not deprive members of the Band of the protection of the fiduciary principle. They were entitled to hold the defendants to the high standard to which other fiduciaries are held in this country.”

The lack of accountability on many reserves is why the Canadian Taxpayers Federation worked with grass-roots band members to push for the new First Nations Financial Transparency Act (FNFTA). Among other things, the law requires chiefs and councillors to disclose their pay publicly. While it has already had a positive impact on many reserves, sadly, Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has promised to scrap the law; a move designed to appease chiefs who oppose disclosure.

Instead of scrapping the FNFTA, the federal govern-ment should entrench the court’s ruling and expand the law to require bands to pass conflict of interest and fiduciary responsibility rules. The government could also require bands to hand over even more financial informa-tion to the grassroots, especially around band-owned businesses and wages for chiefs sitting on regional bodies.

There are thousands of ethical people living and work-ing on reserves across Canada, people like Wayne Louie. They deserve our support and admiration – and laws that ensure a select few aren’t taking more than their fair share.

Municipalities forced to amalgamate by their provincial governments can reverse the process, given the right set of circumstances, finds a new study released today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank.

“Nearly every province in Canada has gone through some form of municipal restructuring over the past three decades,” said Lydia Miljan, Fraser Institute senior fellow and co-author of De-Amalgamation in Canada: Breaking Up is Hard to Do.

“In Ontario, it happened in the late 1990s in the form of provincially mandated amalgamations. The controversial merging of cities, both big and small, hasn’t resulted in the cost savings and efficiencies that its architects predicted, leaving some to ask to question: is de-amalgamation a viable option?”

The study examines two very different cases of de-amal-gamation — in Headingley, Manitoba and in Montreal, Quebec —to evaluate the fiscal and governance implications of reversing a municipal consolidation.

Headingley, a rural community in southern Manitoba, was forcibly amalgamated with the City of Winnipeg in 1972. For decades, community residents demanded that they be allowed to secede, arguing that they didn’t have much in common with the larger, more urban sections of the city. Finally, in 1993 the provincial government relented and legislated Headingley’s secession.

Despite some difficult separation negotiations, Headingley has now become a financially healthy community.

“The case of Headingley should provide some hope for de-

amalgamation advocates in the rural parts of Ontario where the provincial government forced the merger of rural com-munities with large urban centres. If Headingley can secede based on its relatively few connections to the urban centre, then conceivably so can communities like Flamborough in Hamilton or Osgoode in Ottawa,” Miljan said.

Headingley’s relatively smooth transition, the study notes, was aided by two key factors: Its population base was able to absorb the cost of services transferred to it and its de-amal-gamation didn’t necessitate the creation of new and complex governing structures.

Conversely, the de-amalgamation experience in Montreal may persuade some Torontonians — those who want to revert to the old governance model — to take pause.

In 2004, a new provincial government in Quebec facilitated referenda offering municipalities the opportunity to reverse the amalgamation forced upon them in 2002. In Montreal, many municipalities opted to stay but some did leave for-cing the creation of yet another level of local government to coordinate local services (ie: property assessments, social housing, transit and public safety) for all communities (amal-gamated and de-amalgamated) on the Island of Montreal.

“The key lesson from Montreal’s experience with de-amal-gamation is that allowing certain areas to de-amalgamate and others to stay can create a costly, cumbersome and fragmented patchwork of government across the region thus complicating service delivery,” Miljan said.

“If de-amalgamation were to be pursued in Toronto, the then policy makers would be best advised to avoid the Montreal model.”

To the Editor:

The Harper govern-ment failed to produce a budget through the entire 2014-15 fiscal year. Do you remember why?

They claimed they were uncertain about unstable energy mar-kets and had to delay their budget long enough to get reliable data. So how has that worked out?

Finally tabled on April 21st, the 2015 federal budget assumed overall economic growth for Canada this year at 2 per cent. That much growth, the Conservatives said, would generate suffi-cient revenue for the federal books to be balanced and for Mr. Harper to proceed with the two expensive tax breaks that he had promised for high-wealth households.

Those discrimina-tory tax breaks have now been legislat-ed. But the economic growth assumptions used to justify them have gone up in smoke. The Canadian economy will NOT grow by 2 per cent this year.

In fact, in the first quarter of 2015, our economy not only

stalled, it actual-ly shrank in each of January, February and March. For the second quarter, we’ll get the official figures in a few weeks, but more bad news is expected. The economy may not be shrinking any more, but it’s not growing much either.

The last half of 2015 may be better, but according to all the major bank economists and the Organization of Economic Cooperation & Development (OECD), Canada will be lucky to eke out an annual growth rate of about 1.5 per cent.

That mediocre per-formance is well below what the Conservatives were claiming at Budget time, barely two months ago. It’s well below what they need to balance the federal books. And it’s there-fore well below what’s needed to justify Mr. Harper’s tax breaks.

Paltry economic growth is not just this year’s problem. It has been a defining feature of Stephen Harper’s government. Since he came to power in 2006, Mr. Harper has the worst economic growth record of any Prime Minister since R.B.

Bennett in the 1930’s.But don’t blame me,

he will say, it’s all the fault of that nasty 2008 recession. But that recession was shal-lower than expected. It lasted less than a year. And it ended six long years ago. So why is Canada still languish-ing?

Well, Mr. Harper says, put things in con-text - aren’t we doing better than every other country in the G-7? The short answer is no, we’re not. Canada hasn’t been on top of the G-7 in jobs and growth for several years now. Among the 34 leading countries tracked by the OECD, it’s projected that 24 will grow faster this year than will Canada. And in the larger group of IMF countries, more than 130 are likely to do better.

It’s time to stop the excuses. Mr. Harper has been in charge for nearly 10 years. No one else is to blame. His economic plan has failed.

Instead of an obses-sion with tax breaks for the wealthy, the Government of Canada needs to be riveted on the drivers of sustained and sustainable eco-

nomic growth. That’s what will lift our living standards and bolster a more prosperous mid-dle class.

That’s what will help boost all those who are working so hard just to get to the middle class. And that’s what will enable the federal books to be balanced on a sound and sustain-able foundation.

For all these reasons, Justin Trudeau is pro-posing a new economic plan for Canada. It’s rooted in fiscal respon-sibility with two prime goals — greater growth and fairness.

It includes a more generous, non-tax-able and fully indexed Canada Child Benefit. A 7 per cent middle class tax cut.

A major boost for public infrastructure. Better access to high-er learning and skills. Investments in science and innovation. More effective trade and marketing. And the restoration of Canada’s environmental credibil-ity.

Mr. Trudeau’s plan represents real change. Stay tuned. There’s more to come.

To the Editor:

The Saskatchewan Information and Privacy Commissioner (IPC) says that the Ministry of Health is withholding informa-tion without regard for the public’s right to know. In a report released, citing The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIP), the IPC dismisses a litany of Ministry claims that information allegedly supporting privatized surgical and diagnostic imaging services is too sensitive to be made publicly available.

For example, the IPC points out on num-erous occasions that “mere assertion” does not constitute proof that records can legally be withheld, a tactic to which the Ministry often resorts. If the Ministry accepts the IPC’s recommendations, the report will rep-resent the last chapter in a fourteen month saga of the Ministry blocking the Canadian Union of Public Employees’ (CUPE) access to the information.

“We are certainly pleased the Commissioner found that the government has to release more information,” said Will Bauer, CUPE’s Health Care Coordinator. “However, we’re really concerned that it has taken more than a year to get to this point. We’re even more concerned about the Ministry’s reluctance to being transparent or accountable in what it plans to do with the public’s money. We trust the Ministry will act quickly on the IPC’s recommenda-tions.”

On April 17, 2014, a CUPE researcher submitted a freedom of information (FOI) request to the Ministry of Health for docu-ments pertaining to delivery of surgical and diagnostic imaging services in the year prior. Receiving no response from the Ministry, in September 2014 the applicant appealed to the Privacy Commissioner for a review of the file.

“It has taken fourteen months for us to arrive at this point,” said Tom Graham, President of CUPE Saskatchewan. “Saskatchewan people cannot feel that their government is open and transparent when getting simple information requires multiple applications, a formal review, and months of waiting. We believe that the Commissioner’s report today helps to shine a light on a lar-ger issue: the government’s reluctance to disclose information of interest to the people of the province.”

The full report (091-2014) can be accessed online from the IPC website.

To the Editor:

ATV safety is hardly child’s play. In fact, when it comes to the various dangers associated with off-roading, children are the most vulnerable demographic. Studies have shown that the average age of individuals who are treated at emergency departments in Canada for ATV-related injuries is 15 years, which is less than the legal driving age of conventional motor vehicles.

As part of the Saskatchewan All-Terrain Vehicle Association (SATVA) safety campaign Know Your Limits, General Manager John Meed stresses the import-ance of children following ATV safety practices.

“Children have the highest amount of limitations when it comes to ATVs, because they do not possess the physical develop-ment to safely drive large ATVs or the cognitive ability to react to potentially dangerous situations – regardless of their size or matur-ity,” says Meed.

Before children begin ATVing, they should take a training course from one of the qualified instruct-ors throughout Saskatchewan. This will teach them how to be safe while enjoying some off-roading action. To put this into perspec-tive, Meed noted that to legally

drive a conventional motor vehicle – such as a car or truck – individ-uals are required to be 16 years of age, complete an instructional course, pass a practical exam that tests driver competency and fol-low the enforced rules of the road. It only makes sense then that ATVers would take similar steps to ensure they are competent on the trail.

Meed explains that convention-al motor vehicles also come with built-in protective measures such as seatbelts and air bags, which reduce the risk of injury and add to a driver’s sense of security. The same safety measures aren’t found on an ATV, even though a full-size ATV weighs over 225 kg (500 lbs) and is capable of reach-ing highway speeds.

Therefore, young adults who ATV without having taken a safe-ty course or wearing the proper gear are putting themselves at risk.

“You wouldn’t give your chil-dren they keys to your car if they have no received no driver train-ing,” says Meed. “Allowing them to ATV under the same circum-stances is just as reckless and can have lethal results.”

Once children receive the prop-er instruction, Meed says it’s time to select the proper vehicle.

It is recommended that chil-

dren ride “age appropriate” ATVs: vehicles with an engine size no greater than 70cc for children under 12 years of age; vehicles with an engine size no greater than 90cc for children under 16 years of age.

Beyond that, children must adhere to the strict policies every other ATVer follows: avoid taking passengers; wear protective gear (helmet, gloves, ankle boots, long pant, long-sleeved shirt); don’t speed or attempt tricky manoeu-vers; ride in appropriate settings; don’t drink and ride; carry a com-munications device and designate an emergency contact.

“By simply using your head you can avoid a potentially danger-ous situation,” says Meed. “Before ATVing, take time to honestly reflect and determine whether or not you have taken every pre-caution necessary. While ATVing, ensure you driving in a safe man-ner.”

SATVA was formed in 2006 to unite ATV clubs and users into a single voice to promote the safe and responsible use of ATVs in Saskatchewan.

Page 6A - THE NEWS REVIEW - Thursday, July 9, 2015

Ed, my cousin from Saskatchewan, told me last week, why he thought that I do not always signal when changing lanes or turn-ing right or left.

My old friend feels that signaling needs to be done, only if there is traffic behind your car to see your signals. When I talked to Ed by Skype last week, I said that my son-in-law, Eric, told me, that I needed always to signal when changing lanes, and I sure didn’t appreciate his observa-tion. Usually, I like my daughter’s husband well enough, but hearing the truth did not sit well with me.

The truth was that when I changed lanes there was no traffic

immediately near me on the interstate. Yes, the law always says signal your lane chan-ges and turns.

Apparently, about a quarter of drivers do not signal turns and lane changes faith-fully. Such drivers have claimed that signaling is optional, or they forgot or did not have time. Some also explain that they may not signal because if they signal, they forget to shut it off, and so they just don’t signal at all. Studies of causes of auto-mobile accidents have suggested that nearly one-half of car accidents reflect a failure of one of the drivers to make a needful signal.

Failure to signal, con-

sistently, may reflect a lazy, bad habit that needs to be corrected.

No one likes to hear they have a lazy, bad habit that needs to be corrected. At least I didn’t. Ed told me that since we have moved closer to family, I will suffer from more com-plaints from others because even grandkids

will tell me what I do wrong. My old neighbor claimed it was like hav-ing more than one wife.

Prophets in the Old Testament like Isaiah often told the people of God how they had bad habits, and how they were morally deficient before God. Often, the people of God did not like to hear the truth of

his words. In the Psalms, often the bad habits are gen-eral and imperson-al, such as; “The fool says in his heart that there is no God.” Isaiah, however, is very direct in criticizing the conduct of the people who draw near to God in wor-ship. He states that they come near to

God with their mouths and lips, but their hearts are far from him. Isaiah reminds them that God is not like them. The Lord knows and sees their thoughts, atti-tudes, and plans. They forget that God their Potter or Creator is not like them the clay. They needed to submit them-

selves to God, not follow their personal opinions. The people of God cannot tell God what to do. The clay cannot tell the pot-ter what he should fash-ion it into while the clay is in the potter’s hands.

If we want to change our bad habits and moral deficiencies, we must admit them.

I like it when other drivers signal their turns and lane changes, but saying that is useless unless I’m willing to sig-nal myself consistently, when I’m driving.

Do we honor God at church with our mouths and lips with the words of the liturgy, prayers, and hymns, and still have hearts that are far from God?

God knows if it is so?

Neighborly Advice According to Ed

by Raymond Maher

Yellow brings to mind the warmth of the sun and the richness of but-ter, and represents con-tentment and cheeriness. On the downside, it is one of the most fatiguing col-ours to look at. And yet, when used judiciously, it draws the eye to highlight important elements. For this reason alone it’s util-ized extensively in adver-tising, for legal pads and textbook highlighters.

This is a characteristic that we can take advan-tage of in our gardens. Use yellow to accentuate dark areas, highlight or complement other plants, draw attention to a focal point, or add an element of surprise and interest when coming around a corner. But use too much, and the scene becomes difficult to look at.

In our gardens, yellow can be found in flowers [‘The Rocket’ ligularia (Ligularia stenocephala ‘The Rocket’)]; leaves [‘Mini Sunglow’ spirea (Spiraea x bumalda ‘Mini Sunglo’)]; and stems [‘Bud’s yellow’ dogwood (Cornus sericea ‘Bud’s Yellow’)].

‘The Rocket’ ligularia (aka golden groundsel, leopard plant, and big-leaf goldenray) is a herb-aceous perennial with a mound of foliage 30-60 cm in height and spread, con-sisting of large, roughly heart-shaped, dark green leaves in early spring. In mid- to late summer, tall (90 cm) narrow spikes of yellow flowers are held

well above the leaves. Ligularia grows well in partial sun to full shade and prefers well drained but evenly moist soil. A good plant for a bog garden or in a shady woodland bed; it is not drought-tolerant.

‘Mini Sunglo’ spi-rea is a seedling of the more common, but lar-ger ‘Goldmound’ spi-rea. A dwarf, compact shrub with a height and spread of 30 to 38 cm, it sports small, bright yel-low leaves. Dainty pink cloud-like flower clusters appear in June. Once the flowers have faded, prune them off to promote a second flush of flowers in July or early August.

It grows best in full sun, but tolerates partial shade. However, the more shade, the less intense the yellow foliage, tending more toward lemon-lime. It prefers well drained soil and is drought-toler-ant once established. It does not do well in overly moist soil. In late fall (or very early spring before new growth starts) prune entire shrub down to 10 to 15 cm to be rewarded with a perfect rounded yellow mound in early May. This is an excellent plant for a mixed or shrub border. Bees love it!

Cornus sericea is the common red osier dog-wood with stems typ-ically red, but ranging from muddy brown to olive green. In contrast, the cultivar ‘Bud’s Yellow’ has bright yellow stems

on one and two year-old branches. These are especially attractive in the late winter and spring landscape. Older branches eventually turn brown. With a height and spread of 1.8 to 2.1 m, it has medium green leaves 5 to 8 cm long, and white flower clusters in June, followed by white berries.

Plant in moist, well drained soil, although drier conditions may be tolerated for short per-iods. Place in full sun to nearly full shade, but the less sun, the less yel-low the stems. Since the

youngest stems are the brightest yellow, up to 30% of the oldest growth may be pruned out each spring. Alternatively, you can prune the entire plant to ground level in the spring every 3 years.

Other excellent yellow plants include Mother Lode™ creeping juni-per (needles), ‘Depressa Aurea’ common juniper (needles), ‘Midas Touch’ hosta (leaves), ‘Northern Gold’ forsythia (flowers), ‘Aura’ creeping jenny (leaves), ‘Marguerite’ sweet potato vine (leaves; other yellow cultivars

as well), ‘Gold Heart’ bleeding heart (leaves), ‘Sunsation’ barberry (foliage), ‘Dart’s Gold’ golden ninebark (foli-age), ‘Goldenlocks’ elder (foliage), Neon Burst™ dogwood (foliage), and the yellow-flowered orna-mental onion (Allium fla-vum).

Go for the Gold!By Erl Svendsen

New hunting regula-tions under The Wildlife Amendment Act, 2015 come into effect July 1, 2015, in advance of Saskatchewan’s popular hunting season.

“Saskatchewan’s valu-able wildlife resource needs to be protected and preserved for future generations to enjoy,” Environment Minister Herb Cox said. “This new legislation enhances wildlife protection and shows greater respect for our natural resources by increasing the severity of penalties for those who commit hunting viola-tions.”

The Wildlife Amendment Act, 2015

will ensure that:The most serious con-

servation offences will carry an automatic two year suspension;

Those convicted on three separate occasions for wildlife offences will have a lifetime ban;

People with outstand-ing wildlife-related fines will be prohibited from buying a licence until their fines are paid;

Individuals who are banned from hunting activities in other juris-dictions will not be able to purchase a licence in Saskatchewan; and

Wildlife officers will have up to three years to investigate hunting vio-lations and bring char-

ges forward. Earlier amendments

also included a regu-lation to ensure that people who are in arrears for maintenance pay-ments will be denied the opportunity to purchase a hunting or angling licence in Saskatchewan.

The Act will also ensure that science-based wildlife sur-veys are carried out in a responsible and undisruptive manner. Properly-conducted wild-life surveys and reliable data submissions are vital tools in the assess-ment, management and protection of wildlife populations and their habitat.

Changes under the Act were first introduced in November 2014 and fulfill a commitment

made in the 2014 Speech from the Throne.

More than 70,000 people enjoy hunting

in Saskatchewan each year. For more informa-tion, visit www.saskatch-ewan.ca/hunting.

Moving to a new com-munity can be quite a challenge, whether you’re arriving from a distant country or sim-ply a neighbouring town. Above all, it’s essential to learn all you can about your new surroundings so you don’t end up iso-lated. Here are some tips to set you on your road to discovery.

NeighboursThe fi rst thing to do

when you move in is to introduce yourself to your neighbours. Don’t be shy, now! This fi rst contact with the people in your new town could be invaluable; after all, the people who know an area the best are those who’ve lived there for a while.

Surf the WebAfter you’ve met your

new neighbours, unpack the box containing your computer and browse the offi cial website of your new town or city. You’re sure to fi nd lots of useful information, such as the garbage collection schedule and upcoming activities and events on the municipal calendar. Of course, to be really up to date, don’t forget to check the local news-paper on a regular basis.

Go out and see what’s there!

One of the best ways to discover your new town is to go out and explore. Pin point gro-cery stores, pharmacies, medical clinics, movie theatres, coffee shops, etc. You’ll begin to feel at home when you have an overview of what the town has to offer.

Sign up for activitiesMost cities offer a

wide variety of inexpen-sive activities for resi-dents. If that’s the case in your new community, be sure to take advan-tage of them. If you participate in a weekly event with your fellow citizens you’ll soon make

friends with people who share the same interests as you.

PC :Moving to a new com-

munity? Talk to people — and listen to them — and you’ll soon discover the hidden treasures of your adopted town.

The ups and downs of the real estate market over the last half dozen years have led to some game-changing innovations in that sector.

Most especially, realtors have seen a rise in the mar-keting of properties online and a decline in convention-al sales strategies, such as weekend open house events.

That trend might refl ect the needs of sellers, but many prospective buyers feel that there is still a place for the Saturday/Sunday open house in the house-hunting game.

Many real estate agents report that while fewer sell-ers are bothering with the open house concept, many buyers still rely on open visits to get a feel for the market in a given area and to be able to compare prices versus value.

Statistics show that over 80% of people who make the effort to show up are ready to take action — in other words, to buy or sell — and will do so within the next year.

It is certainly practical to be able to peruse online a room-by-room photo album

of a property, but it is a pre-cious opportunity to be able to walk through a house without an appointment or without any pressure to make an offer.

And if buyers notice that the same home has opened its doors over several week-ends in a row, it might mean it is a slow-to-move property.

While such a possibility deserves a bit of investiga-tion, it could also indicate that the seller is in a posi-tion to make signifi cant concessions in their asking price.

On your mark, get set, discover!

Science-crazy kids don’t have to worry about being bored this summer. The Royal Saskatchewan Museum (RSM) has coordinated an array of activities for active, curi-ous, young people.

“School is out, but that doesn’t mean that learn-ing stops,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Mark Docherty said. “The RSM works hard to offer

engaging programming all summer long. In fact, the summer months are often the museum’s busiest.”Families who are interested in learn-ing how scientists work out in the field and in the lab can visit the RSM for special drop-in field days held July 10 with Palaeontology Field Day, July 28 with Biology Field Day and August 18

with Archaeology Field Day. People will be able to participate in hands-on activities, such as catch-ing bugs and excavating fossils or artifacts in a special “dig box.” Field days run from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m.

The RSM’s summer exhibit, “Insects, Flowers and Food,” explores the importance of pollinators, such as bees, and the his-

tory of pollination. Every Wednesday at 2 p.m. fam-ilies can participate in the Pollination Station, a 30-minute drop-in pro-gram based on the exhibit aimed at kids five and older. Participants may build butterfly feeders, discover what would happen in a world with-out bees and learn how flowers attract pollinators

Family-friendly activ-

ities are also taking place at the T.rex Discovery Centre in Eastend, locat-ed 400 kilometres west of Regina, throughout the summer. A variety of drop-in programs take place seven days a week, including Palaeo Practice, Slime, What Big Teeth you Have and Trace Fossils in Clay. Every Tuesday morning at 10 a.m., kids aged 2-6 can

participate in Storytime with Scotty. Tuesday afternoons at 2 p.m., visitors aged 7-12 can participate in Discovery Club, which features a variety of themed activ-ities throughout the sum-mer.

For more information, call 306-295-4009 or visit www.royalsaskmuseum.ca/trex. Admission is by donation.

Field days planned for the Royal Museum

Lighter fare is more popular when the weather warms up, as many people don’t want to feel weighed down by their diet. Fish is a popular summertime meal for many reasons, not the least of which is that fi sh tends to be light but still fl avorful. In addition, many meals featuring fi sh can be whipped up rather quickly.Such is the case with the following recipe for “Grilled Garlic Shrimp With a Fresh Heirloom Tomato Sauce” from Laurey Masterton’s “The Fresh Honey Cookbook” (Storey Publishing). Fresh and simple, this meal can be enjoyed as a change of pace at summer barbecues or simply as a light weeknight meal with the family.

more for garnish Sea salt Freshly ground black pepper

1. To marinate the shrimp, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar and garlic in a large bowl. Stir to combine. Add the shrimp and allow to sit, covered, for 1 hour. Stir occasionally.

2. Prepare a medium fi re in a charcoal or gas grill. Soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning.

3. To make the tomato sauce, bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Place one or two tomatoes at a time into the boiling water. Watch them and, as you see the skin split, remove with a slotted spoon and place in a bowl of cool water. At this point, it will be very easy to slip off the skins.

4. Cut the peeled tomatoes into a small dice. Put the cut tomatoes into a large bowl. Add the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and honey. Stir gently to combine.

5. Skewer the shrimp, 3 per skewer. Grill the skewered shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, until they are pink. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and a couple grinds of fresh pepper.

6. Just before serving, add the basil leaves to the tomato sauce. Taste and add more salt if necessary.

7. Ladle the tomato sauce onto a serving platter and arrange the skewers on top of the sauce. Garnish with more basil leaves and enjoy!

Family-friendly meals need not take a lot of time

way to your dinner table even if you are pressed for time. The following recipe for “Sliced Steak With Crispy Polenta” from “Weightwatchers: Cook It Fast” (St. Martin’s Press) can be whipped up in roughly 30 minutes.

Sliced Steak With Crispy Polenta

Serves 4

1 - 1-pound lean fl ank steak, trimmed1 ⁄2 teaspoon ancho or reg-ular chili powder1 ⁄2 teaspoon salt1 16-ounce tube fat-free polenta, cut into 12 slices1-1 ⁄2 cups fresh or thawed frozen corn kernels1 red bell pepper, chopped1 ⁄2 red onion, chopped1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

1. Spray ridged grill pan with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Sprinkle steak with chili powder and salt. Place steak in pan and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into side of steak registers 145 F for medium, about 5 minutes on each side. Transfer steak to cutting board and let stand 5 min-utes. Cut on a diagonal into 16 slices.2. Meanwhile, spray boiler rack with nonstick spray and preheat boiler. Ar-range slices of polenta on rack and broil 5 inches from heat until crispy and heated through, about 2 minutes on each side.3. Spray medium skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium heat. Add corn, bell pepper, onion, and jalapeño pep-per; cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in cilantro.4. Place 3 slices of polenta on each of 4 plates and top each serving with 4 slices of steak. Divide corn mix-ture evenly among plates. Do it faster: To neatly and quickly remove the ker-nels from an ear of corn, place a bowl in the sink, stand the corn on end in-side the bowl, and cut off the kernels with a knife. Any fl y-away kernels will end up in the sink.

On June 22 at 10:30 am The Baby Friendly Initiative Work-ing Group had their kick-off for Baby Friendly Business. It was held at Western Financial City Centre Park, right in the heart of Yorkton. Along with the Baby Friendly Business event, there was also a BBQ being hosted by Yorkton Plumbing and Heating and the Yorkton Area Parents for The Milk Drop to fundraise for a human milk depot at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre. There was a great turnout, with many downtown businesses, families, representatives from the Sunrise Health Region, The Yorkton Tribal Council, and our very own Mayor Bob Maloney and MLA Greg Ottenbriet present to give special recognition with signed certi cates for all partici-pating businesses. Some of the businesses there to celebrate this event and receive recognition were:

• What’s In Store• Joey Childrens Apparel

• TA Foods• MLA- Greg Ottenbreit’s Of ce• Yorkton Plumbing & Heating• The Family Resource Centre

• Cutters Hair Salon• Shear Bliss

• Wanders Sweet Discoveries• Step By Step Shoes

• Sa re Clothing & Accessories• Dr. Jack Junek’s Of ce

• The Vintage Vault• Yorkton Bowl Arena

• Uptown Casuals• Pita Pit

• Pretty Face Makeup Studio• BTMAK Holdings Ltd.

• Dairy Queen

By participating in Baby Friendly Business these businesses agree to post a sticker on their window or door stating “Breastfeeding Welcome Here”, so families can identify what businesses support breastfeeding. These businesses will also offer a mother a place to sit to breastfeed if needed and all staff are made aware that breast-feeding moms are welcome and support will be given. The Baby Initiative Working Group want to express their gratitude to the businesses that joined our project, and invite more businesses to join. Let’s make Yorkton known for their support to breast-feeding families! For more information contact Heidi at 306-786-0886 or Danielle at 306-782-8130 ext 227.
