Something doesn’t add up
by Geoff Lee
geoff@lloydminstersource.com
Will city taxpayers be shortchanged by the creation of a Lloydminster Utility Corporation in
partnership with Epcor to fund an
upgraded wastewater treatment
facility?
That’s the belief of Lloydminster
businessman and community leader
Rod Sellers, past president of Sellers
RV Centre Ltd.
Sellers said he fears the city is
sacrificing the value of its existing
water and wastewater asset to form
an LUC with a potential partner like
Epcor.
“The big glaring issue for me is that
we sell the existing infrastructure
utility that’s valued at $113 million
to this new corporation, this LUC for
$26 million,” said Sellers.
“That means we’re selling that
utility for about 25 cents on the dollar
or less to this new entity.”
While councillor Linnea Goodhand
questions his figures she doesn’t
refute Sellers’ premise.
“I certainly understand there’s a
gap between what they are valued
on our books and what they would
be valued as our contribution to the
LUC,” said Goodhand.
“His concerns are our concerns—
that’s why we haven’t pulled the
trigger yet.”
According to data mined by
Sellers from the city’s website on
the proposed LUC, indications are
the city is taking away at least $87
million in value from taxpayers to
form the corporation.
That’s the difference between
the $113 million book value of the
existing asset and the $26 million
selling price to the LUC.
“The new partner in this company,
whoever it might be, is getting a
bargain,” said Sellers.
The vending of the existing assets
for $26 million to the LUC would be

Rod Sellers past president of Sellers RV Centre wants the city to get fair market value for its existing water and wastewater assets that would be sold to form a Lloydminster Utility Corporation. Sellers says his research of city documents
tells him the city is sacrificing those assets way below their value.
shared, meaning the actual cost to a
partner like Epcor is just $13 million.
In an e-mail Sellers sent to city
officials on April 14, he said: “Since
the share structure and controlling
interests of the LUC have not been
presented, this can only be seen as
a giveaway of the citizens of Lloydminster’s assets at this point.”
“That’s a possibility,” said city
Coun. Jason Whiting.
“That’s something we need to be
aware of and continue to watch for if
this goes forward,” he said.
“If this goes forward, we need to be
very cautious and leery of the value
of assets and all that.”
Contact Information:
Whiting cautions that nothing has
been agreed to yet with the LUC.
“It’s an investigation at this point.”
Sellers said he also takes issue with
the revenue a partner like Epcor
might get from LUC.
The city’s own budget data for
2016 shows the existing waster and
sewer utility will generate about $6.3
million for the city from water and
sewer bills.
“From Epcor’s point of view they
can get half of that cash flow for $13
million,” said Sellers.
“So for $13 million they have access
to about $3.15 million in cash flow a
year—try to get that kind of return
anywhere else in the world.”
Sellers noted the value of the city‘s
water and sewer infrastructure is
25 per cent of the city’s total assets
and selling that at a sacrificial price
doesn’t make sense.
“I’m not saying $113 million is the
right price but $26 million isn’t,” he
said.
He believes it would be impossible
to replace that asset today for under
$500 million.
Goodhand said she believes Sellers
has legitimate concerns that council
and administration need to address.
“Teaching is the best job in the
world... it’s fruit grows well
into the future.”

Mark Scholz, president of the Canadian Association of Oil Well Drilling Contractors, spoke about the Oil
Respect campaign in support of the industry at a Chamber of Commerce lunch at the Lloydminster Golf
and Curling Club Thursday.
More than 110,000 jobs lost
by Geoff Lee
Mark Scholz, president of
the Canadian Association of
Oil Well Drilling Contractors (CAODC), finds himself
on the stump across Canada
campaigning for his industry.
Scholz
represents
the
Canadian drilling and service
rig sector that is reeling from
massive job losses since the
downturn in the oil and gas
industry at the end of 2014.
He told a Lloydminster
Chamber
of
Commerce
audience
Thursday
that,
including indirect jobs, more
than 110,000 people across
Canada have lost their jobs in
the oil and natural gas sector
“It’s a very difficult time for
businesses,” he said with the
drilling rig utilization rate at a
low of just 4.2 per cent.
Scholz said there are only
about 30 drilling rigs working
in Western Canada out of 700
in the fleet during the week of
his visit.
He noted service rigs were
faring slightly better with their
ability to perform maintenance
on existing wells.
As for how Lloydminster is
faring in the downturn, he said:
“Every community is experiencing it a little differently
depending on the producers in
the areas and their risk appetite
for putting in more capital.
“I’ve heard in the Lloyd area
there have been some producers
who are at least continuing to
provide maintenance work for
a number of service rigs, but it’s
nowhere near what we’ve seen
in the past.”
Scholz also noted the day
rates service companies are
being offered to provide those
services are to the point where
it’s not sustainable or profitable.
The total number of wells
drilled in Western Canada is
forecast to decline to 3,500 in
2016, a 66 per cent drop from
10,400 wells drilled in 2014.
With drilling in the dumps,
Scholz spoke about CAODC’s
Oil Respect campaign at the
Lloydminster Golf and Curling
Centre.
Oil Respect is a campaign
started a few months ago to
stand up for Canada’s oil and
gas industry.
“The message is about
demanding respect for oil
families and oil and gas
workers,” said Scholz, who
added the campaign has three
objectives.
The first is to address the
misinformation and half-truths
that are spread by opponents of
the oil and gas industry.
“Secondly, we want to
give regular Canadians who
support the industry a voice so
they can stand up and demand
respect for this industry and
join the national discussion,”
said Scholz.
Thirdly
is
to
remind
Canadians that oil and gas
produced in Western Canada is
behind Canada’s high standard
of living and is being developed
responsibly.
About pipelines, Scholz said,
“Market access is a concern
that should be on the mind of
all Canadians including our
political leaders.”
He
said
without
new
pipelines the value of oil and
gas produced in Western
Canada is discounted because
we can’t get it to market efficiently.
“We need to diversify our
markets—95 per cent of our
products go to a single market
(U.S.)— we have to access to
international markets,” added
Scholz.
“The only way to do that efficiently and safely is through
pipelines.”
Scholz calls this the worst
downturn since the 1980s and
possibly the worst ever, based
on comments he hears from
people who struggled through
that era.
Scholz said what makes this
downturn worse than the 80s
is the larger size of the industry
today.
He said in the 80s there were
about 400 drilling rigs in the
fleet.
“Today, you have 700 and
the utilization and rig count is
about the same,” he said.

“I think the point
of this project is not
to put the city in a
weakened position as
far as our asset base,
our revenue production or control over
a core services like
water and wastewater,” she said.
Sellers believes the
new utility corporation should have to
pay the full value for
that asset.
“... at least they
have to pay
the book value
for that asset
otherwise the
whole deal
is flawed”
- Rod Sellers
“That value may be
the book value which
is $113 million or it
may be more, but at
least they have to pay
the book value for
that asset otherwise
the whole deal is
flawed,” he said.
Sellers knows a lot
of establishing fair
market value having
recently bought and
sold several businesses including the
recent sale of Sellers
RV to his daughter.
Sellers said in his
e-mail to the city the
deal does not appear
to be good business,
nor does it appear to
be thought through
to a desirable conclusion.
Sellers has since
Coun. Linnea
Goodhand
met with several city
officials about getting
full value for the
assets, but said his
queries went unanswered.
“Nobody has been
able to satisfy my
question about the
sacrifice of our asset,”
he said.
“I can only come
away thinking that
perhaps they didn’t
fully understand the
implications of this
cost to the citizens.”
Goodhand said it’s
critical that people
like Sellers question
council and question
management to have
well-informed groups
of citizens who are
participating in the
decision making.
“That’s what’s we’re
hoping Your Voice is
going to be,” she said.
The city is holding
a Your Voice Forum
on the LUC and other
issues Thursday night
from 5 to 8 p.m. at
College Park School.
Project leaders will
be on hand to answer
questions
about
the proposed LUC.
Sellers said he plans
to attend.

Above: Runners stretch and warm up before taking on the five and 10-km
portions of the 2016 Jayman Built MS Walk that took place on Saturday at Bud
Miller All Seasons Park, and, below, they’re off! The first wave of runners take
off from the starting line.
Numbers were down,
but hopes are high
by Jaime Polmateer
jaime@lloydminstersource.com
The 2016 Jayman
Built MS Walk was a
bit light on numbers
this time around, but
organizers
expected
less of a turnout this
year, looking more for
support in the way of
participation instead
of dollars.
As of press time
Monday, the pre-total
was $86,000 raised,
with a total of 276
participants, compared
to last year’s $188,000
from more than 600
walkers.
“Early on in the
year we decided to
focus less on numbers
in terms of fundraising, recognizing the
tremendous impact of
the economy in this
community, and being
sensitive to the fact
that people are more
limited this year in
terms of what they can
give,” said Johanna
Green, MS director for
the Northern Region.
“So we’ve just asked
the community to step
up with its support
through
participation with the hope
that will translate into
dollars in the way the
community can best
afford to do so, and
we’re just hoping for
the very best.”
Saturday’s walk at
Bud Miller All Seasons
Park is the biggest
fundraising event of
the year for Lloydminster’s MS Society,
and also works to
bring awareness to the
disease.
The lions share of the
money raised goes to
research and funding
for
projects
and
services that, Emmy
Kuypers,
manager
for the Lloydminster
chapter, said are welltested.
“To be able to get
the lab ideas to the
bedside as quickly as
possible we have sort
of a 60/40 where 60
per cent of it is going
towards research,” she
said.
“Then we do a lot of
funding toward our
programs and services
that we have going on
for our members and
support for caregivers and community
events and that kind of
thing—so that’s where
I’d say the majority of
our funding goes.”
Kuypers
is
the
newest addition to
the
Lloydminster
MS Society Chapter,
having
taken
the
reigns from previous
manager Lacey Flichel,
who had to move on
after finding a career
more aligned with her
educational training.
Taking on the organization’s biggest event
just three weeks into
the job might seem like
a daunting task, but
Kuypers said she was
excited instead, as it
gives her a chance to
acquaint with all the
players at once.
“I think this is the
best way to start a job,
with our biggest event
so I can really jump
in,” she said.
“It’s
also
really
nice
because
I’ve
realized that I’m not
just taking a job, but
becoming part of a
family; so that’s really
amazing too, to know
the members and see
everybody all at once
and put faces to names
and that kind of thing.”

Deer mice can cause major health problems if their byproducts come in contact with humans
Oh deer, be careful
by Jaime Polmateer
The weather is getting nicer
and as it does, out come the
pesky bugs and critters that
also enjoy the warmer days and
nights.
Among the wildlife will be the
deer mouse, an animal that can
cause health risks in the form of
the hantavirus, which is caused
by coming into contact with its
droppings and urine.
The deer mouse is most
common across Saskatchewan
and the Prairie North Health
Region (PNHR) wants to share
some tips to keep healthy
against the hantavirus and its
symptoms.
“The infection will start
with symptoms like fever,
cough, headache, muscle pain,
sometimes there may also be
vomiting and diarrhea, and
those kinds of symptoms
usually start within six weeks of
exposure,” said Dr. Mandiangu
Nsungu, medical health officer
with PNHR.
“So if people have been
exposed to droppings, or air
which has been contaminated
by droppings, urine and saliva
of those deer mice, they may
have those signs within six
weeks and they should seek
medical care.”
He said because the illness
is a virus, there is no specific
treatment for it, so most of the
time only supportive treatment
can be provided depending
which organ is affected, but
there’s no real cure to kill the
virus itself.
Most commonly it turns
into pulmonary hantavirus
syndrome, meaning it’s the
respiratory
system
that’s
affected, but in rare cases it can
affect the kidneys as well.
Pulmonary
hantavirus
syndrome can also be fatal, so
people are urged to get medical
attention right away if fever,
coughing and shortness of
breath are experienced within
one to six weeks of exposure to
potentially infested areas.
People are usually exposed
to
deer
mouse
infested
areas when cleaning out
buildings like sheds that
aren’t used during the winter, so
this is when wearing personal
protective equipment (PPE) is a
must.
“First of all, before you
embark on that cleaning, make
sure that the area you are going
to clean is ventilated properly,”
said Nsungu.
“Open the windows and
doors for at least 30 minutes
before you start that cleaning
and protect yourself.”
He said make sure to have an
N-95 type filter mask to ward
off airborne particles and also
wear gloves and goggles.
Proper cleaning techniques
are encouraged, making sure
to avoid dry sweeping and
vacuuming as these techniques
will kick up dust that can be
inhaled and facilitate infection.
Instead,
the
preferred
method is mopping, started by
wetting down areas that might
be contaminated by mouse
droppings.
“Wet them with disinfectant,
for example bleach, and after,
it is advised to pick up those
droppings, and of course be
protected with the personal
protective equipment,” Nsungu
said.
After the cleaning is finished
and the PPE is removed, it’s
then suggested people wash
their hands.
Mouse-proofing one’s home
is also encouraged, first by
removing anything that could
be used as a habitat.
Nsungu recommends getting
rid of woodpiles around the
house and any old cars that may
be parked in the yard, as they’re
both environments where deer
mice might like to put down
roots.
“Also, make sure that the food
for people and animals is very
well stored in containers that
can be covered in such a way
that it won’t attract mice, and
most importantly, try to close all
those holes in the house where
mice can use to come in homes,”
he said.
“So those are the precautions
that people can take, not only to
avoid attracting mice, but also
to avoid getting infected by the
areas that have been contaminated by the droppings of the
mice.”

Lloydminster Special Olympian Kenneth Broadbelt scores a goal on Const. Grant Kirzinger in the Special Olympics Lloydminster year end match against the local
RCMP, which took place at Southridge Community Church on Saturday.
Olympians trounce cops
Special Olympians ‘having fun and with friends’ and hanging out’
by Jaime Polmateer
Special Olympics Lloydminster had its year end
celebration on the weekend, with a main event
in the form of a floor hockey match that saw the
Olympians go toe-to-toe with the local RCMP.
Most of the game was tight as it was still tied at
the break, but the Special Olympians dominated
the second half with the final score coming in at 16
-7 for the group.
The game was less about bragging rights and
more about having a good time, however, a
Olympian Ashley Wyse explained the event and
what it was really about.
“We’re playing against the police department for
Special Olympics,” she said, then added.
“(It’s) just having fun with friends and hanging
out.”
The year end match was set up when president
of Special Olympics Lloydminster Carmen Patry
approached Const. Grant Kirzinger to see if he
could get a team together.
Most years would see the Olympians down at
the local bowling alley, but since the alley is no
more, the group had to find a new activity.
Organizers decided to rent the floor at the
Southridge Community Church last Saturday for
the hockey match, and after a few boos from some
of the bowling diehards among the Olympians,
everyone got on board
for the new event.
For his part Kirzinger
was more than happy to
rally a team together and
surprised the Olympians
Thank You
with a match against the Mounties.
“The relationship between the RCMP and Special
Olympics is something that goes far beyond Lloydminster and is something that we’re very proud
of and something we’re more than happy to be
part of,” Kirzinger said,
“It’s just a privilege that we’re able to get out
and just have fun and show the community that
we like to be involved in these types of activities.”
Kirzinger took a position in front of the net and
partially blames his sub-par goalie skills for the
resulting score.
He said his save percentage for the day was
pretty low, having had a few mishandles, but on
the whole everyone enjoyed themselves.
After the match the Special Olympics crew went
to the Moose Hall to let loose with a dinner and
dance, with music provided by First Class Entertainment.
“We’d like to give a thank you from Special O
to RCMP and First Class Entertainment for volunteering their time,” said Patry.
The Marwayne PBR Committee would like to thank our many
sponsors for helping make this year a success

There’s gold in them thar lagoons
There are a lot of opinions, good
and bad, about the city’s proposed
Lloydminster Utility Corporation
(LUC) with Epcor as a partner to
fund upgrades to our water and
wastewater system.
The bottom line is: How to
fund the updates without having
to substantially hike city water
and wastewater utility bills to
taxpayers?
Any kind of solution needs to
keep that in mind.
If the city has to sacrifice the
value of its existing water and
wastewater assets for just $26
million to the LUC, maybe that’s
the way to go, especially in a
downturn.
Few people who are selling real
estate, for example, are getting
their asking price or fair market

value today.
On the other hand, because
taxpayers funded the existing
assets, they deserve to get a fair
market return on the assets to be
sold to the LUC.
The city says the book value of
the assets is $113 million, so maybe
a potential LUC partner should
have to ante up $113 million and
go from there.
Maybe they could pay that
amount over 20 years.
The city says it can’t borrow the
$94 million it would cost them to
go it alone, arguing it has a whole
list of capital projects over the
next 10 years that also requires
borrowing.
Some of those projects noted on
city’s website—like $36 million
to provide fibre optics to all
residents and $45 million for a
new pool—are not likely on the
radar screen.
Everywhere you turn, more
questions pop up—and that’s
good!
Hopefully, some answers will
be found at the city’s Your Voice
forum this Thursday at College
Park School before the conspiracy
theorists pop up.

Richard Starke, MLA for Vermilion-Lloydminster, was on hand to make a
few remarks at the grand opening of the modernization of the Grace United
Church. The event was open to the public and offered tours of the church’s
new renovations.

adjudicator Andriy Nahachewski, presented
silver medals to Kaitlyn
Yacey, left and Alex Zeschuk from the Lloydminster Malanka Ukrainian Dancers club. The
event took place Friday
to Sunday at Vic Juba
Community
Theatre.
Bottom: After their Friday morning performance, this set of Ukrainian dancers took to the
stage at the Vic Juba
Community Theatre to
hear comments from
the adjudicator and receive medals. More than
700 dancers took part in
the 11th annual Dancing
on the Border festival
over the weekend.
The people of the
Grace United Church
invited the public to
the grand opening of its
modernization, which
featured lunch, guest
speakers, a presentation on the building’s
history and tours of the
renovations.
“(It feels) terrific, it’s
been quite a road we’ve
been on; quite a journey
and
we’re
finally
here,” said Les Ellis,
co-chair of the building
committee.
The road he was
referring to was the
four-year process it
took from discussions
to designing to finding a
contractor, and then the
actual build itself—a
journey that took four
years and cost a little
more than $4 million.
The
renovations
were needed, though,
because problems with
the roof had members
of the church placing
containers on the floor
when it rained to catch
water leaking through
the ceiling, as well as
other problems with the
windows that needed
to be addressed.
Instead of pinpointing each individual
problem and fixing
them singularly, it was
decided a full renovation should be done,
which would better
the whole building for
decades to come.
“A
whole
new
kitchen is one of our
big features; it’s a state
of the art kitchen, but
outside of that we
certainly expanded the
hall size by maybe two
and-a-half times,” said
Ellis.
“We have new offices,
new meeting rooms
and we have a full sized
basement, which at the
moment is still open to
development and that
was our plan, that we
would develop it later.”
Some of that potential
development could be
new washrooms and
some space for rentals
by youth groups to use,
he said.
An interesting aspect
of this new incarnation
of the Grace United
Church is it sits on the
sanctuary’s
original
site, which was chosen
in 1906.
There have been other
rebuilds and additions
over the years, but the
church is still in the
same spot as it has been
for more than a century
and Garry Cunningham, fellow co-chair
of the construction
committee, said this
was by no means an
accident.
“To me it was the
way to go because
people were used to
it here and we have
to help the needs of
people
downtown,
and by staying here we
could hopefully achieve
that,” he said.
The four year time
frame and $four-million
price tag of the project
still saw it come in on
time and on budget.

‘Safe room’ created for child victims
by Geoff Lee
The Lloydminster Sexual
Assault
and
Information
Centre has created what
amounts to a safe room for
child victims of sexual abuse.
The Little Bear Advocacy
Centre, as the space is called,
will be open for public viewing
for the first time on May 13
from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
“We’ve been doing renovations over the last year and
we’re doing kind of a debut for
the community to take a look
at see what we’ve been up to
for the last year,” said Tiffany
Falcon, the centre’s spokesperson.
She said an advocacy centre
is a place for children and
youth to come to if they are
being interviewed by RCMP
or available Child and Family
Services professionals in a
welcoming environment.
“It’s set up with three
comfortable chairs and we
have the video recording
equipment,
really
soft
colouring on the walls and
then we have a table in there,
so very simple,” said Falcon.
The videotaped interviews
can be used to support cases
brought before the courts.
Previously,
children
suspected of being sexually
assaulted or abuse were interviewed more than once at the
Lloydminster RCMP detachment.
“As you can imagine, being
interviewed more than once
can be kind of traumatizing for
a child,” said Falcon.
The Little Bear Advocacy
Centre will make the process
far less intimidating for
children or all ages.
“When we have a centralized
location for them to come and
interview and kind of have a
collaborative approach with
RCMP and Child and Family
Services, that just makes the
child feel less victimized by
being
interviewed,”
said
Falcon.
Falcon said the need for
the room is based on the
knowledge
that
statistics
indicate that one in three girls
and one in six boys can be
sexually abused before the age
of 18.
The open house will include
three separate activity hours
for children from 4 to 5 p.m., 5
to 6 p.m. and 6 to 7 p.m. while
parents sit through one hour
presentations on childhood
sexual abuse. Call the centre at
306-825-8255 or send an email
lsaic@sasktel.net to book a
viewing.
A grand opening of the Little
Bear Advocacy Centre will be
held in the fall.

OUR PAPER
CARRIERS!
Stay off the rails, warn officals
The Government of Saskatchewan
and
the
Saskatchewan Shortline Rail Association
(SSRA) are partnering to raise
train safety awareness in elementary schools across the province.
“Trains are busy carrying
Saskatchewan’s food and fuel
to market,” Regina Walsh Acres
MLA Warren Steinley said
on behalf of Highways and
Infrastructure Minister Nancy
Heppner. “As a father, I appreciate the
effort the SSRA and province
make to teach children that
trains can be dangerous if you
aren’t careful.”
The government and SSRA
distribute train safety activity
booklets to Grade 4 students
in more than 100 schools
near Saskatchewan shortline
railways.
“We continue to work with
the province to relay these
valuable safety messages,” SSRA
president Perry Pellerin said. “The activity books are an
excellent way to remind both
children and adults how to
practice safe behavior around
trains and railways.”
The Government of Saskatchewan conducts safety inspections
and reviews shortline railways
safety management plans to
ensure their operating rules and
plans are up-to-date.
Public Rail Safety Week is an
Operation Lifesaver initiative
that aims to bring awareness
to rail safety and encourages
people to be safe while travelling near rail crossings or tracks. Further resources can be found
at Operation Lifesaver’s website
at www.operationlifesaver.ca.
Saskatchewan
has
1,160
shortline rail crossings, with
14 privately-owned shortline
railways operating on 2,121 kilometres of provincially-regulated
track. The shortlines connect to
more than 6,000 kilometres of
federally-regulated rail lines.

NAOSH WEEK MAY 1 - 7, 2016
Lloydminster’s Health, Safety and Wellness manager, Megan Coulter, speaks at the National Day of Mourning flag lowering ceremony at city hall last week alongside Lloydminster Mayor Rob Saunders, president of Lloydminster Construction Association, Cody Bexson, and program manager and owner of CanSafe Rob
Munroe.
Week to recognize injury prevention
Most accidents preventable
by Jaime Polmateer
Every year on April 28, the City of Lloydminster
recognizes the National Day of Mourning as a day
to stop, reflect and remember those who have lost
their lives or been injured on the job.
It’s also a day to reestablish awareness about
workplace safety to help make sure all employees
in all jobs go home at the end of the day.
“I think it’s highly important for the leadership
of the city to be supporting of workplace safety,
hosting events like this, and just maintaining that
high level of respect for the workplace and individuals that are participating in it on a day-today basis,” said Mayor Rob Saunders at the flag
lowering ceremony that took place at city hall.
Last year 125 people in Alberta died on the
job, while in Saskatchewan the number was
32, with the reason for the gap simply because
the amount of work happening in those
provinces, as Alberta traditionally has more
hazardous work going on at any given time.
Jennifer Keach, chair person for the Lakeland
Regional Safety Committee, said statistically both
numbers have dropped from previous years, so
she thinks the trend remains the same between the
two provinces.
Lloydminster has been observing the National
Day of Mourning for at least three years that
Saunders is aware of, but he said he figures the city
has been observing it a little longer than that.
He also said safety is the number one priority for
city workers and they use only the highest level
of standards possible, as maintaining safety is the
core value of its operations.
“We need to respect each other’s safety and make
sure that we’re taking all precautions necessary
to make sure that no one incurs a life threatening
injury,” he said.
Rob Munroe, program manager/owner of
CanSafe and vice chair of the Lakeland Regional
Safety Committee, said both groups work hard to
generate public awareness for workplace safety.
His main message is that workers should look
out for each other so there are eyes viewing
everything from all angles, that way no matter
where potential danger comes from, everyone’s
protected.
Employees should also be active in their own
protection by learning about their environments
and by standing up when they see fellow workers
doing things that are dangerous.
“For myself, as a safety professional, I’ve been
in the industry for a long time; if an event occurs
where somebody is injured or worse, we go in,
we investigate, we try to find out what happened
and how it occurred, then try find out steps to
prevent,” he said.
“But the difficulty is there is a huge loss there—
not just the surface—there’s a family involved,
there’s friends, there’s co-workers; so this is my
commitment and the safety community’s commitment.”
The Day of Mourning kicked off the bigger
North American Occupational Safety and Health
(NAOSH) week that has a list of events for people
to take part in.
On May 6 a NAOSH barbecue will be held in the
Lloydminster Construction Association parking
lot and there will also be fire extinguisher training
held at the Lloydminster Golf and Curling Centre.
On May 14 Steps for Life will be held at Bud
Miller All Seasons Park and next month the Treads
for Life motorcycle run will be held on June 18
starting at Lethal Motor Sports.

OHS is looking out for your safety
Alberta ensures compliance with
Occupational Health and Safety legislation through education, work site
inspections, and ticketing and other
enforcement measures.
How it works
OHS enforces compliance with
provincial
legislation
through
education, work site inspections, and
other enforcement measures.
Alberta Occupational Health and
Safety (OHS) legislation protects
the health and safety of workers on
provincially regulated work sites.
Who’s not affected
Some workers in Alberta don’t
currently fall under provincial OHS
legislation.
These include:
• the owner of a farm or ranch
operation and their family members,
unpaid workers such as relatives,
neighbours and children doing chores
or participating in 4-H
• domestic workers
• federal government employees
• workers in federally regulated
industries such as banking and
aviation.
How OHS laws are enforced
OHS officers have authority to
enforce the legislation in a number of
ways, including:
• conducting inspections
• issuing orders
• writing tickets
• issuing administrative
penalties.
Proactive Strategic Programs
Every year, Occupational Health
and Safety (OHS) selects employers
for enhanced inspection and education
activity.

and develop best practices at work.
These resources include:
• explanation guides
• bulletins
• best practices resources

The National Day of Mourning flag lowering ceremony was held at City Hall last week to bring awareness to job safety. President of the Lloydminster Construction Association Cody Bexson, Mayor Rob Saunders and project manager and owner of CanSafe Rob Munroe observe a moment of silence for workers that
were injured or killed on the job.
Make safety a habit—what’s your reason?
North American Occupational
Safety and Health (NAOSH) Week
runs until May 7.
This year’s theme is Make Safety a
Habit—What’s Your Reason?
Each year, Canada, the United
Sates, and Mexico observe NAOSH
week to promote and encourage
employers and employees to be
healthy and safe in the workplace
and at home.
“We need to make safety a priority
in everything we do,” Labour
Relations and Workplace Safety
Minister Don Morgan said.
“NAOSH week invites you to
renew your commitment to protecting yourself at work and at home.
It’s everyone’s responsibility to
eliminate and prevent injuries.”
The
City of Lloydminster
proudly supports
NAOSH week
A committee of representatives from the Ministry of Labour
Relations and Workplace Safety,
Canadian Society of Safety Engineering, Saskatchewan Safety Council,
federal government, and the
Workers’ Compensation Board work
together to promote and coordinate
activities and events across Saskatchewan.
The Government of Saskatchewan
is dedicated to Mission: Zero, an
initiative that works toward zero
injuries, zero fatalities, and zero
suffering.

Don’t be a fall guy or gal
A special North American Occupational Safety and Health Week Working Wise
Dear Working Wise:
I noticed some roofers on my neighbour’s house
the other day and they were not using any ropes.
Are roofers supposed to use safety equipment in
case they fall?
Signed Nervous Neighbour
Dear Nervous:
Yes, anyone working at a height of threemetres or more is required to use fall protection equipment.
Falls from any height are a common cause of
serious injury and even death in the workplace.
Around 20 per cent of the workplace incidents
reported to Alberta Occupational Health and
Safety since January 2012 involve falls.
Workers must be equipped with a full-body
harness attached to an anchor point if a worker
might fall a vertical distance of three metres or
more.
Fall protection is also required over an
unusually dangerous surface, such as uncapped
rebar or other construction materials.
Guardrails must be installed if a worker
might fall a vertical distance of more than 1.2
metres and less than three metres.
The three-metre fall distance is measured
from the point from which a worker may fall.
The distance the worker would fall must be
less than the distance to the nearest object/
surface below the worker.
The vertical height that a worker may roll
or slide down the sloped roof before they lose
contact with the roof is not considered to be
part of the “fall distance.”
If the worker is working close to the gable
end of a roof (in residential construction) then
that height is included.
It is the employer ’s responsibility to ensure
their workers are protected as much as possible.
That includes having the proper equipment
on site and ensuring all employees are trained
in its use.
Employers should ensure only competent,
trained workers are up on the roof or other
structure.
OHS actively patrols worksites to ensure all
workers and employers are being safe.
For some who aren’t working safe, it could
mean a $200 to $500 ticket.
If you come across a worksite where workers
are up high and clearly not protected, you can
call Occupational Health and Safety at 1-866415-8690.
You can also file a complaint online at work.
alberta.ca/ohs.
For more information on fall protection or
any other workplace health and safety issues,

questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@

getting

As you sort through

that old potato: “One

It takes minimal effort

unused, outgrown or
unwanted belongings
out of the landfill.
If there’s no way
that you can reuse or
repurpose an item,
perhaps someone else
can.

Sell Things Online
Look
for

Facebook is a good
place to start, and kijiji
is a free site with a vast
selection of categories
available.
If garage sales aren’t

make some money with
an online ad.
Donate to a
Great Cause
Lloydminster
now
has four charity shops
whose profits support
very
worthy
local
causes.
The ReStore supports
Habitat for Humanity
and accepts donations
of building materials
and household items
including furniture.
Check
out
their
website to see if your
donation meets their
criteria, and find them
at 3711 44 St..
The Interval Store,
5109 51st St., provides
clothing,
household
items and furniture to
women and children
fleeing
domestic
violence.
The proceeds from
the store support the
programs and services
provided
by
the
Interval Home, the local
women’s shelter.
The LABIS Store, 4920
50 St., is a gently used
clothing and book store
that supports raising
awareness on brain
injuries.
Last, but not least, The
Olive Tree is located
at 3427 50 Ave. and
proceeds help support
the soup kitchens that
are held three evenings
per week.
When you purge
excess
belongings,
donate it if you don’t
want to sell it.
Donating
keeps
usable things out of the
landfill and allows local
people to find a great
deal.
At the same time, the
money generated is
being spent locally on
essential services.
What’s better than
that?
You’ll feel great.
When
donating,
though,
please
remember
it
takes
valuable volunteer time
and effort to sort and
dispose of damaged
and broken objects.
Dispose
of
your
own trash responsibly
by seeing if it can be
recycled before sending
it to the landfill.
Buy Used
For many families,
the days of buying
what you want without
a second thought are
over.
As you become a
more prudent shopper,
watching for sales and
distinguishing “wants”
from “needs,” make an
effort to find what you
need second-hand.
There may be some
things that you aren’t
comfortable
buying
used, and fair enough.
But if you’re patient
and keep watching,
there are great deals to
be had.
Sometimes waiting
for the right deal helps
you realize you didn’t
actually need what
you’d been looking for
and prevents spending
impulsively.
If you’re accustomed
to buying everything
top of the line, ask
yourself if you spend
more because you like
the quality, feel that it is
produced under more
humanitarian
conditions, or are you simply
projecting an image of
affluence.
If it is the latter, can
you afford to sustain
that image?
More
and
more
research is showing that
people overspend in
response to what they
see on social media.
If you see on Facebook
that your friend has
a new patio set, for
instance, you are more
likely to feel that your
old set is inadequate
and wish that you could
afford a new one.
Learn to question
these impulses.
Is credit card debt and
stress worth keeping up
to the neighbours?
If Pinterest or similar
sites always leave you
feeling like you need
new things, try a week
without that app and
see how you feel.
Perhaps a digital diet
will help you stick to
your budget.
If there is something
you really need or
want and you have set
out a fair price in your
mind, wait for the right
deal to come along by
watching the flyers,
kijiji, online groups and
the local charity shops.
Compare prices at
local businesses and
ask when things will
go on special—that
patio set will likely go
on sale in the fall if you
can wait that long.
Budgeting
your
money, living sustainably, and supporting
the
second-hand
economy are great
ways to reduce stress
and debt.
Don’t wish for what
others have; assess
what you need before
shopping for wants.
Spending
locally,
whether on new or
used, will help support
local people and businesses through the
lean times and the
booms.

Buyer beware:
concert tickets
Be careful where
you buy tickets
Concert tickets to
popular acts like Garth
Brooks are in high
demand, but consumers
should be wary about
purchasing
from
resellers,
third-party
websites and promoters.
The Consumer Protection Division of the
Financial and Consumer
Affairs Authority has
received
complaints
about third-party sellers
advertising ticket sales
before the tickets have
gone on sale. They are trying to sell
tickets they do not own.
Don’t Buy
Phantom Tickets
Consumers
who
purchase
pre-sale
tickets from scalpers, or
pre-sale websites may
be subject to fraud and
lose their money. Consumers
are
reminded it is illegal to
sell, advertise or list for
sale, any tickets to an
event in Saskatchewan
unless the tickets are in
the seller’s possession or
control. If a seller does not
hold a ticket, they may
not sell it.
No Bots Allowed
It is illegal to use
computer
software
(bots) to automatically
buy tickets. It is illegal to use or
sell software to avoid
or defeat a ticket seller’s
website security, control
system or measures
designed to ensure a
fair and equitable ticket
buying process.

Outbreak of STIs
The
rates
of
gonorrhea and infectious syphilis have
spiked dramatically
in the province over
the past year, and the
Alberta government
is taking action to
raise awareness.
Cases of gonorrhea
in 2015 are up 80 per
cent from 2014.
Cases of infectious syphilis in 2015
doubled from 2014.
“New social media
tools enable people
to
communicate
quickly to arrange
anonymous
sexual
encounters, resulting
in increased difficulty
in tracking STIs,” said
Dr. Karen Grimsrud,
chief medical officer of
Alberta
Health
Services (AHS).
“When people don’t
know their sexual
partners’ identities, it
makes it difficult to
contact partners for
follow-up testing and
treatment.”
“AHS has and will
continue to step up
its awareness and
outreach efforts to
ensure the public,
especially
at-risk
groups, know the
risks, know how to
protect
themselves
and know the importance of getting tested
for STIs,” said Dr.
Gerry Predy, AHS
medical officer.
Although
many
STIs can be treated
and cured, if left
untreated they can
result
in
serious
health impacts and
long-term
implications.”
Syphilis rates have
risen most notably in
men who have sex
with men (MSM) and
gonorrhea rates have
increased in young
Indigenous females.
AHS will continue
to promote www.
sexgerms.com
and
its
social
media
campaign to raise
awareness
and
encourage STI testing.
More than 3,400
cases of gonorrhea
were reported in
Alberta in 2015—an
80 per cent increase
from 2014.
This
rate—82
cases/100,000 popu-
lation—is the highest
reported since the late
1980s.
The overall female
rate in 2015 has
increased 93 per cent
from 2014.
The overall male
rate increased by 66
per cent.
Nearly half of all
cases among females
reported Indigenous
ethnicity.
The estimated rates
among MSM are 11
times higher than the
provincial rate for all
males.
There were more
than 350 cases of
infectious
syphilis
in Alberta in 2015,
doubling case counts
from 2014 case counts,
and surpassing recent
historic highs last
seen in 2009.
The majority of
cases, 86 per cent,
were MSM.
One-quarter
of
all cases were also
infected with HIV.
STIs are a significant health issue for
Albertans, resulting
in health, social,
emotional,
and
economic costs.
Some of these issues
can be long-term.

Linda Ulrich
As a native Lloydminster resident, with Real Estate experience since
2006, I have always had a passion for people and LOVE for what I do.
There is just something about finding a home for a client/family that
makes me happy. I am dedicated, honest and work hard for my clients,
as any of them will attest to. I think it is important to have knowledge
of your community and share that information. After all, you are not
just buying a home, you’re essentially buying into a community.
I have many interests outside of work. I love to golf and I think it is a
great sport for all ages. It is something you can do at a family gathering,
social event, or just for fun. I have three children. One attends University in the USA on a soccer
scholarship, and the other two are younger and keep me on my toes. I have been very blessed. If
you are looking for a Realtor that will assist you in your quest for that perfect home, revenue property or acreage...please give me a call, I would love to hear from you.

Heritage celebrated
Job’s Daughters to host tea
Reflecting on our
past
heritage
and
looking forward to our
future—Job’s Daughters
International
Bethel
#8 of Lloydminster
is preparing to do just
that!
We have a rich heritage
and tradition.
Founded in 1920 by
Mrs. Ethel T. Wead
Mick, Job’s Daughters
International
is
an
organization of young
women with members in the United
States, Canada, Australia, the Philippines, and Brazil. Mother Mick wanted to create
an International organization for
young women to give them all the
opportunity to learn important
skills for life, such as leadership,
organization, teamwork, self-reliance, goal setting, helping others,
community
involvement,
and
learning to become strong leaders
of the future.
For 96 years, Job’s Daughters have
been actively promoting friendship
and service.
Job’s Daughters perform service
projects to help their community
and the less fortunate.
They actively support the Hearing
Impaired Kids Endowment Fund,
which purchases hearing-assistive
devices for hearing impaired
children.

The Lloydminster Bethel will be
hosting an alumni tea along with
the visit of their supreme guardian
on May 14 at 1 p.m. at the Masonic
Lodge. Everyone is welcome!
Breanna Harrison, past Miss
Saskatchewan Job’s Daughter, is

and to reacquaint themselves with
our traditions.
Breanna would like all to know
that Bethel #8 is still going strong in
Lloydminster and hopes to still be

She looks forward to seeing you
all on Saturday, May 14th.

Online big game
draw starts now
Saskatchewan’s big
game draw for hunters
opens online May 1,
with a new application
deadline of midnight
on May 25—seven days
earlier than last year’s
May 31 deadline.
The 2016 deadline
was adjusted to accommodate
the
many
hunters who have
expressed interest in
earlier availability of
big game draw results
to help with vacation
planning.
The big game draw
is a transparent and
equitable method of
allocating a limited
number of hunting
licences to Saskatchewan residents. This
year’s draw includes
licences for elk, moose,
pronghorn, either-sex
mule deer and antlerless mule deer.
“Saskatchewan’s
diversity
of
game
species provides many
different opportunities
for hunters,” Environment Minister Herb
Cox said. “I encourage
all hunters to apply
early and wish all

New child tax credit
The Government is reminding
eligible parents to file a tax return
to receive the new Alberta Child
Benefit and also that free tax
clinics are available throughout
Alberta to help. “During these tough economic
times, our government is ensuring
that parents are able to provide
their children with opportunities
to succeed and thrive,” said Irfan
Sabir, Minister of Human Services “I encourage all eligible parents
to file a tax return to qualify for
the new Alberta Child Benefit.”
Women are the majority of
low-wage earners in the province.
“The benefit is direct help
to (those) most in need, to
make ends meet and give
kids a better quality of life,”
said Stephanie McLean, minister
of Status of Women.
Community organizations are
hosting free tax clinics to prepare
returns for eligible lower-income
taxpayers.
The Canada Revenue Agency’s
website has more information
about these clinics. The tax-filing
deadline is April 30.
All families earning less than
$41,220 per year in net income,
including those receiving AISH
and Income Support, are eligible
to receive the new ACB.
The maximum annual benefit is
$1,100 for families with one child,
up to $2,750 for families with four
or more children.
To qualify, families must file
a 2015 tax return, have lived in
Alberta for at least one month,
have at least one child under the
age of 18, and meet the income
requirements.
“Anything that we can do as a
larger community to help those
who are vulnerable and living in
poverty is good for all of us,” said
Katelyn Lucas, executive director,
Elizabeth Fry Society of Calgary.

Walking Through Grief Society celebrates 25 years
Walking Through Grief Society
held its AGM on April 11 and recognized 25 years of service in the area.
From the first steering committee
in 1991, to the present volunteer
board of 2016, there’s been many
changes and much growth as a
society.
There’s one board member who
has remained all of those years,
Dr. Jill Lakins, and one facilitator,
Shirley Scott.
The new Board for Walking
through Grief Society 2016: chair is
Marie Belsheim, vice –chair George
Fraser, secretary, Candice Anderson,
treasurer John Scott, and members
Dr. Jill Lakins, Jackie Crichton, Vicki
James,Pat Calyniuk, Lynda Oliver,
Gayle Barnes and Daryl Frank.
Ariel Haubrich resigned due to a
commitment on the Alberta Mental
Health Advisory Board.
The Society has been able to
exist and continue offering support
with the ongoing financial support
of FCSS contributors that include
the City of Lloydminster, Town
of Vermilion, County of Vermilion
River, Villages of Kitscoty and
Marwayne, personal and corporate
donations and valuable volunteers,
Friends of the Society, who have
worked at Sobey’s BBQs and raising
funds.
The Society welcomes FCS at
Wainwright as a new partner in 2016
and is looking forward to the new
partnership.
Walking Through Grief Society is
a volunteer based society with the
board, facilitators and friends of the
society all giving of their time.
Facilitators and co–facilitators are
Lynda Moses (Vermilion and area),
Shirley Scott (Lloyd, Wainwright,
Villages and area), Marlene Beres,
Gayle Barnes and Lily Belland.
There are many friends as well,
and the Society always welcomes
more to join in.
This year also saw Shirley Scott
appointed as program director at the
general meeting.
Walking Through Grief Society
recognizes and thanks all who have
volunteered, past and present, to
assist the Society in moving forward.
To go back in Society’s history: the
first group was in 1990 in Vermilion
at the Dr. Alex Stewart building,
then the United Church and now
supported by the Park View Alliance
church.
Support expanded in 1991 to Lloydminster with the first group in a
residence and later moving to the
Ranchario Cafe, the Church of God,
Salvation Army, Scout Hall, Verses
Book Store, Dr. Cooke and now
finding a home at the Lloydminster
Sexual Assault Information Centre.
Now we’re able to meet at Wainwright Provincial Building.
The Society appreciates all who
have offered safe and comfortable
environments for those who grieve.
Programs offered in communities have expanded to include
support group or one to one visits
twice a week in Wainwright and
marketing area, Thursday morning
and evening and senior support
in Vermilion and marketing area,
Wednesday evening and afternoon
groups, monthly group for Victims
Some positive changes have been seen over the past 25 years at the Walking
Through Grief Society
of Homicide, Survivors of Suicide,
Parent Loss of Child, palliative and
family, and those institutionalized.
For presentations to agencies and
organizations contact the program
director.
The newest program offered is the
Hope After Loss—Audra’s Legacy.
A program to support children
who are grieving the loss of someone
loved who has died.
The children’s
program was
developed by VIBE and delivered
by VIBE staff and trained facilitators
Gayle Barnes and Lily Belland.
This is an ongoing program in
Vermilion and Lloydminster for sixto 12-year-olds, 13-18 year olds and
will begin in October.
2017 will see the newest component
Grief Through Divorce and Separa-
tion.”

Dawson Guest returned the opening kickoff Saturday for a 70-yard touchdown run against the Battle River Shock in the Lloydminster Red Dogs’ first home game
in midget football in five years. Lloydminster would go on to win 44-8.
Red Dogs put on a show
by Andrew Brethauer
andrew@lloydminstersource.com
If it was to be the only game the
Lloydminster Red Dogs would play
on home field for the next five years,
they were going to make sure their
fans got to see a show.
Within the first eight seconds of the
game, Lloydminster would hold the
lead over the Battle River Shock to the
very end, as Dawson Guest returned
the opening kickoff for a touchdown,
in what was a four touchdown first
quarter for the Red Dogs in a 44-8
victory.
Tommy Yanchuk passed for three
touchdowns, including two in the
first quarter to Jesse Borzel, while
Brayden Chilibeck carved up the
Battle River defence for a major score,
and Dexter Cooper finished the
Shock off with a three-yard scamper
in the third quarter for the Red Dogs
final touchdown of the game.
“It’s been the same way all year, we
come out offensively and establish
the run game with Chilibeck and
Cooper, then hit them over top,” said
Red Dogs head coach Rod Kirby.
“The effort was great on both sides
of the ball, so I’m pretty happy.”
More than 1,200 people took in the
first midget football game played
in Lloydminster in the past five
years, watching the still undefeated
Red Dogs earn their fifth win of
the season, securing the top seed in
the Capital District Minor Football
Association (CDMFA) heading into
playoffs.
Battle River’s only score came
late in the fourth quarter with the
game well put away, as the Red
Dogs defend, led by game M.V.P.
Cole Milford, cut down the Shock’s
running game in the back field and
had pressure behind the line of
scrimmage all afternoon.
Add
in
four
interceptions,
including two juggling act catches,
allowed Lloydminster to cruise to
perfect 5-0 regular season with the
final victory.
“It was just awesome to see all the
people come and support us,” said
QB Yanchuk. “The boys were hyped
up, wanting to play for Lloydminster, family and friends and just put
a show on for everyone.”
Lloydminster finished the season
with 233 points for, the most of any
team in the CDMFA, while their 61
points allowed were second least
amongst the nine team league.
The relentless offensive attack has
turned a new lead this season after a
stumble last year saw the Red Dogs
playing for third place rather than
defending their league championship from 2014.

Red Dogs
Continued from Page 24
But with Yanchuck throwing perfect
completed passes and Chilibeck leading
the ground attack, so far no one has
been able to slow down the Red Dogs
or even make it close in through the
regular season.
“Right now they are just clicking on
all cylinders,” said Kirby. “We got a lot
of weapons. Jesse Borzel was just a stud
today. We’re clicking right now and
hopefully we can keep it going a few
more weeks.”
While the future sees the Red Dogs in
the playoffs for another season in the
CDMFA, Saturday’s game was about
bringing midget football back to Lloydminster. With a large attendance of
fans on hand, the biggest game of the
season lived up to the hype, and was a
chance for the players to showcase their
abilities in front on sponsors and fans
who have never been able to see them
play due to their schedule putting them
on the road in and around Edmonton
every weekend.
Fans were given plenty to cheer
about, and the hope is that it won’t be
another five years before the Red Dogs
get to play on their home field again, a
decision that now rests with the CDMFA
and its member teams.
“You don’t know what to expect but
we you see it, when you see the support,
it just gives you the goose bumps when
you come out onto the field and see
that many people cheering,” said Kirby.
“The kids came out jacked and the
crowd definitely helped.”
The Red Dogs defence got to the running back in the
backfield all game, limiting yards.

The final 14
Only 14 teams remain in the Canadian Junior Hockey League
and 13 of them are playing this week in regional tournaments in
Estevan, Sask., Kirkland Lake, Ont., and Woodstock N.B. From
the three tournaments, four teams will head to Lloydminster
to join the Bobcats for the Royal Bank Cup tournament.
Host – Estevan Bruins
Host – Kirkland Gold Miners
The Estevan Bruins have been off the ice for over
a month since being eliminated in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League’s quarter-finals on
March 27, but will hope history plays a role in their
quest to move on to the RBC Cup. Last year, Fort
McMurray finished tied for first after the round
robin, only to lose in the semi-final to Melfort. The
year prior, Dauphin earned a spot in the national
tournament form the host spot.
Kirkland Lake didn’t win the Northern Ontario
Junior Hockey League this season, but they came
pretty close, losing in four games to the Soo
Thunderbirds in the league final. As hosts, they
knew they would be in the Dudley Hewitt Cup,
a tournament they played in back in 2014. In that
tournament, however, they went 0-3 in the round
robin, so they will hope for a better result and first
RBC Cup appearance this year.
BCHL – West Kelowna Warriors
NOJHL – Soo Thunderbirds
The Warriors are earning their first trip to the
Western Canada Cup, but it was the upset over
the Canadian Junior Hockey League’s top ranked,
Penticton Vees that got the Warriors plenty of
attention. Down 2-0 to the Vees, the Warriors went
on to win four straight to get a place in the three
team BCHL final. They finished off Chilliwack in
six games to book their spot in the western tournament.
AJHL – Brooks Bandits
Brooks got the better of the Spruce Grove Saints
in a rematch of last year’s league final, putting
them back into the RBC Cup picture for the first
time since last winning it all in 2013. Brooks didn’t
have to play through the Western Canada Cup
back then, however, making this year’s tournament a first for the Bandits.
SJHL – Melfort Mustangs
The Mustangs defended their Saskatchewan
Junior Hockey League title and will make their
second consecutive trip to the Western Canada
Cup. They finished third in the tournament last
year, which gave them a spot in the RBC Cup as
Portage la Prairie, RBC Cup hosts, finished second.
They will have to do better this year, as only the
top two from the west will head to the national
tournament.
MJHL – Portage Terriers
The RBC Cup champions are back and ready
to defend their national crown as they won their
second straight Manitoba league champions, and
seventh in the past 12 years. The only blemish
on last season was a second place finish at the
Western Canada Cup, but Portage should be back
in the running to defend their title on the ice in
Lloydminster.
Western dominance
While the Western Canada Cup has only been
played since 2013, western Canadian teams
have dominated the RBC Cup since the trophy
was named back in 1996. Since then, 15 of the
last 20 years have come from either British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba.
B.C. teams have won the national title seven
times. Currently, western Canada has won the
last four RBC Cups.
The defending Dudley Hewitt Cup champions,
the Soo Thunderbirds, earned their chance to defend their title and get back to the RBC Cup. The
Thunderbirds won the Dudley Hewitt in 2012 as
well, so they know how to play in this short tournament format. They will look get back to the national tournament and improve off their 0-4 finish
last year, the lone team to be eliminated after the
round robin.
OJHL – Trenton Golden Hawks
Host – Woodstock Slammers
Woodstock has been sitting since March 30 after
they lost in the Maritime Junior Hockey League
semi-final to Dieppe in seven games. The Slammers held a 3-2 lead in the series but couldn’t
close it out. It’s now an uphill climb for Woodstock, who is the only team out of four who didn’t
win their league. The Fred Page Cup has only
been won four times since 1995 by the host team.
CCHL – Carleton Place Canadians
The Canadians look to make another run for an
RBC Cup, a championship they have watched
first hand be given to another team as they stood
on the other blue line. Last year they watched Portage win and the year before, it was Yorkton who
held the national title. With their third straight
CCHL championship and RBC Cup experience,
they should be front runners to win the Fred Page
Cup for a third straight year.
LHJQ – College Francais
de Longueuil
Trenton will host the Dudley Hewitt Cup tournament next year, so this season is a great experience builder for the team. It’s their first trip to the
central Canadian tournament, after the Golden
Hawks earned their first Ontario Junior Hockey
League championship in the franchises history.
With no experience to draw from, the Golden
Hawks could be the underdog to watch for, as
they get first hand experienced of what they will
face again in 2017.
With their fourth Quebec league championship in
six years, College Francais is back in the Fred Page
tournament. Unfortunately, it hasn’t resulted in
any trips to the RBC Cup. Their best finish has
been the runner-up spot in 2011, while last year
they went 1-2-0 in round robin play before losing
to Dieppe in double overtime. Only four teams
from Quebec have won the Fred Page Cup since
1995.
SIJHL – Fort Frances Lakers
Pictou makes their return to the Fred Page Cup
since hosting the tournament back in 2008. Only
this time, they won their way to the tournament
after a six game victory over Dieppe in Maritime
Junior Hockey League, coming from the sixth
seed in the MHL to win it all. They played in the
RBC Cup in 2008 as well, but didn’t make it past
the semi-final.
Ontario a dud?
The bridesmaid
Ontario -and it’s few American teams- have
not fared too well after getting by the Dudley
Hewitt Cup. Since 1996, only the Aurora Tigers in 2004 and 2007 have won the RBC Cup.
The last two years, the Dudley Hewitt champion has also been the team eliminated after the
round robin, as the Soo Thunderbirds went 0-4
last year , while the Toronto Patriots went 1-2-1
in the 2014 tournament, still finishing fifth out
of five teams. Ontario will host the next RBC
Cup in Cobourg next year, marking the third
time the Canadian junior A hockey tournament has been hosted in Ontario since 2006.
Since winning the RBC Cup back in 2011 (Pembroke Lumber Kings) eastern Canada has been
in the hunt for the last four RBC Cups, but unfortunatley, only have a bunch of silver medals to show for it. The Carleton Place Canadians have played in the last two finals, while
Summerside and Woodstock were in the years
prior. Since 1996, along with Pembroke, only
Summersie (1997) and Halifax (2002) have
won the national championship. Still, a five
year run of at least being in the final game,
playing a championship, is better than not being in the game at all.
For the third straight year the Fort Frances Lakers have won the Superior International Junior
Hockey League championship and will play in
their third straight Dudley Hewitt Cup. Last year
they were hosts, but lost to the Thunderbirds in
the gold game, missing a chance to make their
first RBC Cup. They will have to get through the
Thunderbirds again if they want to make it to the
national show.

Steelers spring
showcase this
weekend
Andrew Brethauer photo
Boys of summer are back
The Northwest Prairie Pirates midget AAA
baseball team opened their season over the
weekend in the Saskatchewan Premier Baseball
League (SPBL) with two double-headers.
On Saturday, Northwest allowed 13 runs in a
13-5 loss to the Parkland Expos, but rebounded
for a 10-5 victory in the second half of the double
dip to split the Saturday series.
Sunday afternoon they welcomed the Muenster
Red Sox for a pair of games, but Lloydminster
The Lloydminster PWM Steelers will host
their spring showcase on Friday and Saturday,
welcoming any bantam and midget female hockey
players from across the province to come to Lloydminster to take part in the camp.
Lloydminster won one of the six midget AAA
franchises Hockey Alberta was allowing to
continue operating back in February, and will join
Calgary, Okotoks, Red Deer, Edmonton and Rocky
Mountain in the Alberta Major Midget Female
Hockey League next season.
The camp is the first opportunity for coaches and
the Steelers staff to evaluate talent for next seasons
team. With open borders across the province,
any player from any city in Alberta can come to
Lloydminster to play, and Steelers staff members
have said they will aim to bring the best kids to
Lloydminster to make up the team, and will not be
holding spots for local players.
For those wanting to take part in the camp,
visit www.pwmsteelers.com to view the registration form. Information at the camp will include
billeting, off ice training and education.
ended up on the short end on both games, ending
the weekend with a 1-3 record.
The Pirates were runners-up last year in the
SPBL final, losing to Saskatoon Giants 5-3.
With a young team, it should be a challenging
year for the three-year-old organization, who did
not return a AA team to the SPBL ranks this year.
Northwest is back home on May 28 for two
games against the Regina Expos at Wallace Field
with 2 and 4 p.m. starts.

Are you cut out for social work?
WORKING
WISE
by Charles Strachey
Dear Working Wise:
I’m trying to decide what I want to do for a career.
I know I want to help people and I’d like my job to be
stable—not dependent on the price of oil. Do you have
any suggestions?
Signed, Thinking about the future
Dear Thinking:
There’s a wide variety of careers that provide the
stability that you’re after along with the opportunity to help other people.
You might want to try using the free careerinsite.
alberta.ca career-planning tool to help you narrow
your search.
CareerInsite walks you through the career
planning process from getting to know your wants
and needs, to exploring your options, making a
choice and planning how you’re going to make it
happen.
One career option that you might discover
during your research is social worker.
Social workers help to build stronger, healthier
communities by helping people craft better lives
through counselling, training and social programs.
They help Albertans improve their employment,
finances, marriages, personal relationships, and
parenting skills.
Social workers also help Albertans overcome
substance abuse, prepare for life changes, escape
abusive relationships, overcome their disabilities,
and stay out of trouble with the law.
They can work in schools, hospitals, employment centres, child-protection offices, correctional
centres, or community agencies focused on specific
challenges ranging from homelessness to poverty
to domestic violence to welcoming immigrants.
The hiring outlook remains positive for Social
workers. Alberta’s Occupational Demand and
Supply outlook 2013—2023 predicts a two per cent
shortage (200 total) of social workers in Alberta
over the next decade.
Wages ranged between $20 and $52 per
hour in 2013 and averaged $40 per hour.
Social work is a demanding occupation, which
requires you to be: mature, emotionally stable,
