The 40th annual Trailriders Rodeo was held
over the long weekend,
July 30 & 31, 2016. Despite the rainy weather,
overall it turned out to be
a fairly good weekend for
all the Rodeo events held
out in Timberland this
year.
The Quad Rally on Saturday had a route change
this year as to not meet
up with the large group
of wagons and horses
that come across from
Big River every year. It
seemed to be okay as only
a few of the speedier riders missed the turn signs
but overall it made the
trails safer for everyone.
On Saturday afternoon at the grounds
there was team roping
that had to be cancelled
midway through due to
a thundershower, but
the weather cleared and
the Dirt Rich Band entertained everyone later
that night at the open-air
dance. Danielle Pouliot
was crowned the Leoville
Trailriders Rodeo Queen

On Sunday the Rodeo
started a little later as the
team roping finished out
their draw before the parade of wagons came into
the arena.

I’m 70... Except for one semester in college
when jobs were scarce and a 6-month period
when I was between jobs, but job-hunting every
day, I’ve worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite
some health challenges, I still put in 50-hour
weeks, and haven’t called in sick in seven or eight
years. I make a good salary, but I didn’t inherit
my job or my income, and I worked to get where
I am. Given the economy, there’s no retirement
in sight, and I’m tired. Very tired.
I’m tired ... Of being told that I have to “spread
the wealth” to people who don’t have my work
ethic. I’m tired of being told the government will
take the money I earned, by force if necessary,
Spiritwood Herald
I’m 70 and tired
and give it to people too lazy to earn it.
I’m tired ... Of being told that Islam is a “Religion of Peace,” when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters,
wives, and daughters for their family “honor,”
of Muslims rioting over some slight offense,
of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren’t “believers,” of Muslims burning schools for girls, of Muslims stoning teenage
rape victims to death for “adultery,” of Muslims
mutilating the genitals of little girls, all in the
name of Allah, because the Qur’an and Sharia
law tells them to.
I’m tired ... Of being told that, out of “tolerance
for other cultures,” we must let Saudi Arabia use
our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa
Islamic schools to preach hate in America and
Canada, while no American nor Canadian group
is allowed to fund a church, synagogue, or religious school in Saudi Arabia to teach love and
tolerance.
I’m tired ... Of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global warming, which no
one is allowed to debate.
I’m tired ... Of being told that drug addicts
have a disease, and I must help support and treat
them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a
giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them,
and stuff white powder up their noses while they
tried to fight it off?
I’m tired ... Of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers, and politicians of both parties talk-
3
ing about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes,
or youthful mistakes, when we all know they
think their only mistake was getting caught. I’m
tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich
or poor.
I’m real tired ... Of people who don’t take responsibility for their lives and actions. I’m tired
of hearing them blame the government, or discrimination, or big-whatever for their problems.
Yes, I’m damn tired ... But I’m also glad to be
70, because, mostly, I’m not going to have to see
the world these people are making. I’m just sorry
for my grandchildren.

New life breathed into former Ag Canada rose breeding program
-Erl SvendsenShakespeare famously penned,
‘that which we call a rose by any
other name would smell as sweet.’
He could have used any other flower
to make his point, but he chose rose
because he knew it would evoke a
familiar sensory experience in his
16th Century audience. So it is true
today – the rose is one of the most
recognized flowers and floral scents
in the world and has been since ancient Greek and Roman times. As
both a cut flower (especially on Valentine’s Day) and garden plant, roses are big sellers. The drawback for
Prairie gardeners in the early days
was a lack of cold hardiness and
repeat blooming. And roses can be
particularly susceptible to leaf diseases, especially in wet years.
Early Prairie rose breeders like
Percy Wright, GeorgeBugnet and
Frank Skinner made important
hardy rose introductions, some of
which are still available. However,
the better-known Canadian hardy
roses came from two Agriculture
and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC;
then Dominion Department of Agriculture) breeding programs that
produced the Parkland Series (e.g.
‘MordenFireglow’, ‘Winnipeg
Parks’) and the Explorer Series
(e.g. ‘John Cabot’, ‘John Franklin’, etc.). The goal of AAFC’s
program was to develop hardy,
long-blooming and disease resistant climbing and bush roses that resembled tender European hybrid tea and floribunda
roses. The Parkland roses were
especially adapted for life on
the Prairies, while the Explorer roses were better suited for
hot, humid Central Canada (i.e.
ON and QC); there were several cultivars that would survive
in both regions.
Sadly, due to changing mandates, retirements and reduced
budgets, the AAFC rose breeding programs were discontinued.
Fortunately, all was not lost. The
rose germplasm or breeding stock
was not discarded. In the early
2000s, the germplasmwas initially licensed to the Rose Consortium under the direction of two
former AAFC rose breeders. They
evaluatedthe 1000s of hybrids
and selected superior plants that
were disease resistant, suitable
for across Canada, more fragrant
than previous selection and great
performance. These were the first
of the Canadian Artist Series with
the most recent introduction this
spring with the ‘Oscar Peterson’, a
semi-double white shrub rose.
In 2010, the Canadian Nursery
Landscape Association obtained
the license for AAFC rose germplasm and then developed an agreement with the Vineland Research
and Innovation Centre (Vineland,
ON) to continue to develop hardy
and disease resistant roses for the

and plants, even with the
most spectacular flowers, are unattractive with

seedlings, less than one
percent of the 15,000 are evaluated at partner nurseries across
Canada, from British Columbia to
New Brunswick. The University of
Saskatchewan, in one of Canada’s
coldest urban centres, is also host
to one of the evaluation sites. After two or three years of vigorous
field testing without winter protection or fungicide treatment, only a

OPINION
August 19,, 2016
Paul Martin
Commentary
The average weekly pay packet for workers in the
province is shrinking a bit.
StatsCan does a monthly survey of wages. They
look at non-farm jobs and try to figure out the average weekly pay for workers across the country. In
terms of background on this report, Saskatchewan
has generally been in third spot among the provinces behind Alberta and
Newfoundland. Years ago
we were about sixth but
the economic growth spurt
we saw in the last decade
pushed us up the ladder to
number two or three.
Even though the economy
has slowed, we have not
seen a corresponding decrease in pay. We remain
PAUL
in third place at just under
$1000 a week.
MARTIN
May’s figures, which came
~
out yesterday, are slightly
lower than April and two
dollars a week below May
of last year. So, basically, wages have not tracked the
economy’s downward movement.
This calculation, though, includes overtime in the
weekly pay figures so a small decline like the one we
saw in May might be nothing more than elimination
of higher-cost overtime.
***
They’re in a hurry. And they feel good about their
prospects.
Post-secondary students these days have an optimistic view of how life will unfold once they leave the
halls of learning.
A study of student attitudes conducted for RBC
Royal Bank shows the bulk expect they will tick
the boxes on a string of life’s milestones within 60
months of convocation.
The bank survey learned that three-quarters of the
students expected to have their student loans paid off
in five years and half figured they’d be married and
be home owners in that time frame.
Half expected to move out of their parents’ home
in the first year. More than half anticipated owning
their first car in the second year.
And the optimism starts early. Two-thirds of first
year students expected they earn a $100,000 annual
salary within five years…fourth year students saw a
slightly less rosy future as only half of them anticipated reaching that milestone. 40 per cent of freshmen
expected they’d be parents within five years of graduation compared to fewer than one-in-three seniors.
***
One of the biggest spectator sports in the business
world in this province is the track that commodities
are running. This province relies heavily on commodities – especially resources – but agriculture is
also critical so many business decisions are based on
the direction commodities are headed.
One of the best sources of information on this front
comes from Scotia Bank and their monthly Commodities Index.
Their June report shows the Index rose by 3.3 percent over May. One of the big contributors was petroleum which bumped up against $50 a barrel in that
time frame. And while it has fallen back since then,
the Bank remains relatively bullish saying anything
in the $30s is a speed bump as they project $50 oil
by the end of the year and 2017 will close out at $60.
Strength in agriculture – led by a sharp rise in lean
hog prices – also contributed to the improvement in
June as did lumber. The ag gains were triggered by
Chinese demand while lumber is enjoying a renaissance in American home building.

VIEWPOINT
August 19, 2016
DUI laws must change
Sooner or later, we are going to
have to change our drinking and
driving law.
This will be a challenge for many
living on farms or smaller towns
and cities throughout rural Saskatchewan.
But it would seem rather obvious
now the next logical step will be lowering the .08 blood alcohol driving
limit, heavy first-time fines, longterm loss of driving privileges or all
of the above.
In other words: We are heading
for a world where there may be no
drinking at all if you are going to be
driving – a tough situation for rural
folks.
When you live in a rural environment, a cab or public transportation
isn’t really an option. Moreover, you
are likely to need a car for work or
for simply existing.
Maybe city folk can easily walk
home from the bar, but walking long
distances in a rural Saskatchewan
winter is not an option.

Our case for P3s
Dear editor,
In a recent column, reporter Jordan Twiss asked
our government why we are using some long-term
contracts (P3s or public-private partnerships) to
build new roads, schools, and health care centres. I
am happy to respond.
Firstly, P3s keep projects on-time and on-budget.
Our province’s first P3, a new long term care centre
in Swift Current, opened its doors this spring just as
promised. All 18 new schools are on track, as is the
new hospital in North Battleford. Even the Regina
Bypass – a project the same size as a highway from
Shellbrook to Edmonton – is on-budget and actually
ahead of schedule. That’s one reason P3s have been
used 240 times in Canada by 8 provinces, the current
and former federal government, First Nations, and on
47 municipal projects.
P3s also save money. If we had done the exact same
projects the traditional way, they would have cost
more than $500 million dollars more. Those savings come mostly because the private sector is better
at keeping costs down when unexpected events, like
bad weather, affect projects. (In other words, as Mr.
Twiss acknowledged, it has nothing to do with playgrounds.)
Lastly, these P3 projects are creating jobs in a time

As Wall pointed out, this is what
makes his very stupid decision all
the more disappointing.
As a former driving instructor,
health and highways minister and
someone overseeing the government’s aggressive advertising on
drinking and driving and slowing
down in construction zones, McMorris knew better.
And to arguably make matters
worse, McMorris was driving his
government-issued cabinet minister’s car when this happened. (Although it should be stressed that he
was said not to be on government
business at the time of the incident.
Ministers are allowed to use government vehicles for personal use, as
long as they keep track of mileage.
It is believed McMorris was driving
from his home in Regina to his cottage in the Qu’Appelle chain when
he was pulled over.)
And as a further testimonial to

of low oil prices. More than 165 Saskatchewan companies are now working on our P3 projects. The Regina Bypass is the single largest creator of jobs this
province has seen since the railroad, creating 8200
from construction alone.
It’s important to remember that from day one, we
own what we build. It’s no different from having a
homebuilder put together your house – it’s still your
house.
P3s aren’t the solution for everything. The majority of what we do will proceed the conventional way,
like new interchanges at Warman and Martensville.
But when the P3s can get projects done better, faster,
and at a lower cost, we should keep our mind open to
them. Our government is committed to keeping Saskatchewan strong. By investing in our communities,
we’re doing just that.

become part of our culture, McMorris becomes the fifth member of the
Sask. Party government 51-person
caucus to have a brush with our impaired driving laws.
Economy Minister Bill Boyd was
convicted in 2005 for “driving without due care and attention” (a traffic
code violation) after being charged
with failing to provide a breath sample. (That Criminal Code violation
was stayed.)
Also Advanced Education Minister Scott Moe has a DUI conviction
going back to 1992 and backbenchers Terry Dennis (Canora-Pelly) and
Eric Olauson (Saskatoon-University) each have multiple convictions.
That’s one in 10 among our current government lawmakers – not
exactly an effective denial of the
problem this province has with
drinking and driving.
So let us hope that McMorris’ unfortunate situation is a wakeup call.
Change now seems inevitable.
of Pelican Cove, a “beautiful beach area” has been created on top of the same road used to unload and load
boats, and a pile of sand left beside the road for children to play on. Furthermore, the public swimming
area is now re-located to beside the boat launch. This
cramming of sand, children and moving vehicles in
the boat launch area has ignited concerns for safety.
Shirley Cherpin (member of the Organized Hamlet
of Pelican Cove Board) and Gordon Mayer who has
sought closure of the old boat launch since 1993 utilize citizens’ concerns as means to pressure the RM
of Leask to close the old launch, and vow to continue
the fight; even take it to a higher level of government
than the RM.
Jewel Stephens, one committee member of the Organized Hamlet of Pelican Cove, offers insight and
a practical solution. “The Organized Hamlet of Pelican Cove Board needs to fix the safety problem it has
created from our beach development program,” says
Stephens “It’s easy and inexpensive to remove the
sand and move the swimming area back away from
the boats. People come to the lake to access the water
for many reasons - safety is key for ALL to enjoy the
water.”
One can only wonder, if concerns for safety are at
the heart of the matter, why hasn’t this already been
done?
Sincerely,
Dorothy Rosenfeldt (Pelican Cove Ratepayer)

Have an investment:
three things you should know
(NC) A new series of investment reforms are being phased in by Canadian
investment regulators to
improve transparency and
disclosure. Called the Client Relationship Model
— Phase 2 or CRM2, the
reforms sound like a character out of the latest Star
Wars, but the new information it brings will make
you a smarter investor.
Phased in over three
years, the most important CRM2 requirements
come into effect this summer. Silvio Stroescu, vice
president of deposits and
investments at Tangerine
outlines three things you
should know about the
changes:
1. You’ll know the exact dollar amounts you’re
paying to your investment
dealer. Once a year, your
investment dealer will
send you a report summarizing compensation
earned such as trailing
commission(s), in actual dollars, as well other
earnings such as deferred
sales charges or referral fees. This report will
also provide a summary
of other account charges
like annual administration and transaction fees.
2. You’ll get a more
complete picture of your
return on investment.
Annually, you’ll receive a
report that provides your
personal portfolio performance for the previous
year and since opening
your account. Previously,
firms only had to disclose
the rate of return for the
fund overall. This additional information will
tell you if you’re making
money so you can ensure
your investments are
aligned with your longterm goals.
3. You may not see this
information right away.
It’s important to remember that although the new
requirements described
above come into effect
July 15, 2016, most firms

and will sure to continue
to grace our table for the
next couple of months.
If you are looking for a
bit more physical work,
dividing perennials that
have finished blooming
is another timely chore.
How do you know if your
perennials need dividing you may ask? Certain
signs like the centre of the
plant looking a bit dead;
loss of f lowering profusion; or just finding the
border being a little bit
crowded are signs to share
the wealth with your gardening friends.
If you are a gardener
who likes to collect seed,
August is the time to get
going. First it is necessary to correctly identify
the plant and ensure you
understand its lifecycle.
Remember that heirloom
plants are the best choice
for collecting seed. Learn
how the seed will ripen
and how the seed is dispersed to allow you to collect the seed at the right
time and the best level of
maturity.
When it is time to collect the seed, gather them
when they are ripe but
before they are shed by
the parent plant. Remove
capsules, heads or pods
as they begin to dry and
separate the seed later as
they are more completely
dry. If you are collecting
seed from a plant that
tends to disperse its seed
with vigour, simply tying
a paper bag over the seed
head will ensure you are
able to collect the seed.
After collecting the seed,
dry them is a warm, dry
location for another week
provide information on a
calendar year basis. This
means most investors will
start getting their reports
in early 2017.

One of the best and worst
parts of living on the prairies is our ever-changing
weather. It is wonderful
but challenging, interesting and frustrating....but
it is what we live with. It
is somewhat like our gardens - ever evolving and
changing to continue to
share the challenges of
keeping it both beautiful
and fruitful.
In August, there are still
many tasks to be done.
Even though many parts
of Saskatchewan have
been filled with many
rainy days, it is still possible to get into the garden
and get some timely work
done. In August, many of
the summer days continue
but as the garden ripens,
nature reminds us that
fall is near.
Many gardeners consider August a jewel. We
can finally put down some
of our tools to enjoy the
warm sunshine during the
daylight hours. The manic days of summer have
passed and our chores
involve that endless tie
up of f loppy f lower and
tomato spikes; harvesting
what is ripe and remove
the odd tenacious weed.
Deadheading perennials
and annuals that have finished blooming is a good
chore and produce more
blooms to enjoy.
Replanting lettuce and
spinach that has gone
to seed and removing
worn-out annuals and
vegetables is a great August chore. Pruning back
annual herbs will ensure
that the bounty continues.

Natural habitats and wildlife should be protected
The question of who should pay for farmers who
maintain natural waterways and treed areas has
been one asked for a number of years.
There is a recognition that in many areas of Canada, and in particular on the Canadian Prairies, that
farmers own a lot of the remaining natural sloughs,
potholes, tree bluffs and riparian areas.
On Agriculture
With today’s equipment the potential to drain
wetlands, tear up trees and one day plant those areas to crop, is increasingly possible.
While the claim areas might never be high-producing acres, having them gone from the landscape
does allow for farmers easier use of modern, large
scale equipment.
In that respect farmers gain convenience and
farmland acres by draining sloughs or cutting down
a bluff.
But there is a cost in terms of nature every time
that happens.
Deer use bluffs as cover.
Ducks need sloughs as nesting habitat.
Foxes and racoons look to duck eggs as a food
source.
And the intricate web of an ecosystem spreads on
from there.
There is a fairly general understanding that the
public would like to see natural habitats, and wild-
life protected.
The sloughs, potholes and riparian areas also play a role in
the filtering of run-off water,
and as holding places to mitigate
high rainfall events.
If the on-field holding capacity is lost, the water rushes further down the system creating a
greater chance of flooding and
damage.
So there are good reasons for
the greater good to retain natural
waters and woods.
But, if it’s for the greater good,
should farmers alone bear the

costs?
One much talked about solution is what is known
as Alternative Land Use Service (ALUS), a program
where by public coffers would compensate farmers for doing things which help retain, or redevelop
natural systems.
While some individual municipalities across Canada have ALUS projects, larger scale programs are
just beginning to emerge.
Prince Edward Island has the only province-wide
ALUS program, at present, and it is of course Cana-
da’s smallest province, with some 620,000 acres of
farmland.
A much later scale program is now being discussed by the Progressive Conservative government
in Manitoba, which has committed to a provincewide ALUS type program.
Under the program landowners would be paid
to retain or re-construct natural areas such as
wetlands, grasslands. The payments compensate
landowners for critical ecosystem services, such as
wildlife habitat, and flood mitigation, among other
possible program triggers.
The program has not had an official price tag attached to it, but it is expected to be significant. PEI
invests about a $1million in its program, and Manitoba has more than 19 million acres of farmland, so
the math is rather obvious.
The question is, whether a public which wants nature preserved, will accept their tax dollars going to
help compensate farmers to ensure that happens.
Clearly the benefits of retention of natural ecosystems are this which extends to a broader society
than the individual farmer, so a program such as
ALUS is a step toward fairness in terms of costs. But
the politics of where tax dollars go may also become
an overriding factor. The Manitoba process will be
interesting to watch from that perspective.
Saskatchewan-grown produce at home with Co-op
A record amount of Saskatchewan-grown produce
is hitting the shelves at Coop Food Stores this year.
As part of Co-op's Grown
at Home initiative, local
farmers will harvest more
than 500 acres of vegetables grown exclusively for
Co-op in 2016.
That's almost 100 acres
more than last year, when
the Prairie Fresh Food Corporation (PFFC), a group
of 17 Saskatchewan producers, grew over one million kilograms (2.3 million
pounds) of fresh vegetables
for Co-op members and
customers.
"Grown at Home is a rewarding partnership with
local producers that is helping to build healthy com-
munities in our province,"
said Ron Welke, Associate
Vice-President Food with
Federated Co-operatives
Limited.
"Together with the Prairie Fresh Food Corporation, we're delivering fresh,
locally grown vegetables to
Co-op members and customers and supporting Saskatchewan farmers, who
are growing their businesses and building a vibrant
industry in Saskatchewan."
Growing industry
The volume of Grown at
Home vegetables has increased every year since Coop and the PFFC first partnered, growing more than
200 per cent since 2013. To
meet the demand, growers

"Producer and retailer
partnerships help to build
production capacity in the
province," said Connie
Achtymichuk, Vegetable
Crops Specialist with the
Saskatchewan Ministry of
Agriculture. "As a result,
we are seeing an increase
in seeded acres in Saskatchewan and producers investing in equipment and facilities to further expand their
operations."
Local impact
More than 20 kinds of
Saskatchewan-grown vegetables will be available
at Co-op Food Stores this
year, including lettuce,
celery, cucumbers, beans,
cauliflower and carrots, as
well as Saskatchewan sweet
corn. In 2015, PFFC members provided Co-op with
more than 335,900 cobs of
the popular crop.
"It's provided all of our
growth, this relationship,"
said grower Dan Erlandson, whose farm near Outlook, Sask., has more than
doubled in size in recent
years.
Erlandson and his wife,
Chelsea, were recently
named
Saskatchewan's
Outstanding Young Farmers. In addition to sweet
corn, the couple provides
Co-op with broccoli, Brussels sprouts and potatoes.
"The shelf space for local
produce has been good for
everyone," said Erlandson.
"It's good for Co-op, us as
producers and consumers. They can put a face to
where their food is coming
from."

Scott Sunderland of Tisdale and James Prium of
Osler were representing
the North East zone after previously qualifying
to attend provincials at
the Prince Albert judging competition held in
April.
About 50 senior 4-H
members are invited to
attend by pre qualifying

as two classes of grain
and one class of brome
hay and a mystery class.
Megan placed 1st overall
in light horse and Scott
was 1st overall in alpacas. Megan also placed in
the top 5 in heifers and
Brittany had two top 5
finishes.
Megan Wasden also

Altuve is baseball’s little big man
OBITUARY
~
gan raising their two
children. They moved
to Shell Lake area in
1963 where they enjoyed
serving the community
at the Shell Service Station for 4 years. Then it
was back to farming and
even sawmill operation.
He always had an ease
to repair, rebuild or replace most anything for
his farming needs and
those of his extended
family and community
too.
A ‘jack of all trades’
but he did master some.
He supported his family
generously and also his
community. There was
the arena, golf course,
hockey coaching but he
was involved in many
ways. Old time music dancing and a crib
game were never turned
down.

There are 30 teams in Major League Baseball, with 25
players on each roster. That’s
750 players. Ranked by
height, Houston Astros’ second baseman Jose Altuve, at
5-foot-6, is 750th.
But when it comes to talent
and skill, he’s No. 1.
Dayn Perry of CBS sports.
com ranks the top 100 ball
players each month. June’s
rankings had Altuve at No.
6. August’s listing had him
at No. 1.
The most complete player
in the game right now? Altuve capably mans a key defensive position, he’s a highvolume and high-percentage
base-stealer, and he hits for
power while also hitting for
average and being tough to
strike out,” raved Perry.
In his sixth MLB season,
the 26-year-old Altuve hit
between .276 and .290 his
first three seasons, but has
been over .300 ever since.
As of Aug. 6, he led MLB
in batting with a .355 average, was second in on-base
percentage, sixth in slugging (he’s only 5-foot-6, for
crying out loud!), second in
OPS (on-base percentage
plus slugging), sixth in stolen
bases with 25, No. 1 in hits,
43rd in home runs (hey, he’s
only 5-foot-6!) and second in
WAR (wins above replacement). No matter how traditional or obscure the stats,
Altuve ranks with the game’s
best. Put them all together
and there’s nobody better in
baseball today.
Among those most impressed are his team-mates.
“It’s kind of a joke in here,”
outfielder Colby Rasmus
told the Toronto Star. “We’re
all struggling to get hits —
blasting balls into the shift or
whatever — and it’s like he’s
got this innate ability to get
three hits a night against the
best pitching in the world.”
Blue Jays’ Devon Travis, at
5-foot-9 closer in stature to
Altuve than most other players in the bigs, is a big fan of
the Astros’ star. “He’s one of
my favourite players to watch
in this game,” Travis told
BRUCE
PENTON
~
Brendan Kennedy of the
Toronto Star. “He plays the
game the way I try to play.”
Those who follow baseball closely suggest there’s
a three-way race for the
American League’s Most
Valuable Player award. Toronto’s Josh Donaldson, who
was last year’s MVP, is having another outstanding year
and could repeat if the Jays
go on to win the A.L. East.
Mike Trout is having another
Trout-like year for the Angels
and will be in the MVP mix.
But if the Astros somehow
overcome the Texas Rangers and win the A.L. West, or
even win one of the wildcard
playoff spots, look for Altuve
to be voted MVP.
Little man, big talent, big
year.

So don’t worry about them.

Comedy writer Jerry Perisho: “There’s good news
concerning the contaminated water at the Olympics in
Rio. The Zika mosquitoes are
dying of dysentery.”
Comedy writer Tim Hunter, on complaints that a mysterious ‘creepy’ clown has
been seen walking around

makes him ‘creepy’ is that
he’s not wearing a cheesehead.”

Safe use of personal insect repellents
While enjoying what’s
left of the warm summer
weather, don’t forget to protect yourself from pesky
bugs that bite! Health Canada is reminding Canadians
to use bug spray and other
insect repellents safely to
avoid mosquito and other
bug bites.
Bug bites can cause a
number of health problems
from itchiness and irritation to potentially serious
diseases. Personal insect
repellents can help protect
you from mosquito, blackfly
and tick bites, but it’s im-
portant to remember that
they should only be used as
directed.
If you are using an insect
repellent, always follow the
label directions. To check
for the most recent product information, use Health
Canada’s new pesticide label search mobile app.
What you should do
Preventing bug bites is
your best protection! To
help avoid bug bites, cover
exposed skin with clothing
as much as possible. If you
choose to use a personal insect repellent, follow these
important steps:
Use insect repellents
that have been approved
by Health Canada. (They
have a Pest Control Product
(PCP) registration number
on the product label.)
Always read the entire
label carefully before using,
and follow all directions.
This includes restrictions
for use on children and the
maximum number of applications allowed per day.
Only apply a small
amount of repellent on
exposed skin or on top of
clothing. (You don’t need a
lot for it to be effective.)
Never spray insect repellents directly into your
face. Spray on your hands
first and then apply to your
face.
Try not to get repellent
in your eyes. If you do, rinse
them immediately with water.
Keep all insect repellent
containers out of reach and
sight of children and pets
and supervise the application of insect repellents on
children. Avoid applying repellent to children’s hands
to reduce the chance of get-
ting the repellent in their
eyes and mouths.
If you are concerned
that you might be sensitive to a product, apply the
product to a small area of
skin on your arm and wait
24 hours to see if you have
a reaction.
If you suspect that you
or your child is reacting to
an insect repellent, stop using the product immediately, wash treated skin, and
get medical help. When you
go to the doctor, take the
product container with you.
Report health or safety

concerns
Report any adverse events
to the manufacturer, who is
required by law to report it
to Health Canada. You may
also report an incident directly to Health Canada by
completing an incident report form.

Keep calm and hand over the keys
(NC) The thought of having your teenager behind
the wheel is understandably
cause for more than a little
anxiety. Fortunately, the latest technologies and apps can
help reduce worry among the
parents of new drivers.
“As a parent myself, I sympathize with the feeling of
apprehension as your kids
begin driving,” explains Marc
Saltzman, tech expert and
columnist. “But while concerns over distractions from
tech devices are legitimate,
there are many ways technology is actually making driving safer.”
While handing the keys
over the kids may never become completely stress-free,
technology is helping give
teens the freedom they crave
while allowing parents the
peace of mind they deserve.
Here are three tips for using
tech wisely in the vehicle.
1. Go hands free: Apple CarPlay and Android Auto help
young drivers stay handsfree by mimicking their cellphone’s screen on the car’s
built-in display. With their
device plugged in and out of
the way, teens are able to get
directions, make calls, send
and receive messages, and listen to music — all while staying focused on the road.
2. Get a report card: Car
manufacturers are responding to parental anxiety directly. For example, the new
Chevrolet Malibu comes with
a built-in technology called
Teen Driver. It supports safe
driving habits by muting ra-

(NC) September means back to school for families across
Canada, and new and exciting extra-curricular activities for
kids. Unfortunately, the fundraising landscape for schools is
tough and securing the cash to keep programs going is not always straightforward. But there are ways you can help.
“Parents are a fantastic resource when it comes to supporting fundraising initiatives,” says Sherrie Mae Guthrie, educator
and blogger. “No one is more invested in their kids’ activities,
and by joining their school’s fundraising board, parents can
play an active role in securing the necessary funds to keep programs going.”
Guthrie recommends three kinds of initiatives parents can
suggest to help raise funds for their school:
1. Tried and true: Tired of the traditional pancake breakfast
or bake sale? To up the ante, approach your local coffee shop
to donate carafes of coffee to increase income. Better yet, volunteer your school to sell carafes of coffee at election time and
sell coffee there. This’ll mean guaranteed foot traffic, exposure
for the coffee shop, and ultimately more funds for the school.
Win-win.
2. Physical literacy: Get your heart rate up to raise funds for
sports. An assembly hall or empty classroom makes the perfect
place for a sponsored Zoombathon or dance-off, provided you
can persuade your kids to let you dust off your best Macarena.
3. Fundraising 2.0: Be brand savvy — a range of partnerships are open to schools, including the Buick Drive for Your
Students program which offers Canadian high schools the opportunity to raise a significant amount of money. Schools simply register to become partnered with their local dealership to
host a test drive event. For every test drive, Buick donates $10;
if an event exceeds 100 test drives, the amount will be doubled
to $20 up to a maximum of $10,000.
Contact your child’s school to find out how you can make a
real impact by joining fundraising efforts for the new school
year.
