Search for missing
Winkler man comes
to a tragic end
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The search for 19-year-old Travis Sukkau came to a
tragic end on Monday when a body was found in the
Pembina Valley Provincial Park.
RCMP confirmed Tuesday morning that a body
had been found in the park the day before but that
it had not yet been identified as Sukkau. Police said
they continue to investigate SukkauвЂ™s disappearance
and that further updates would be provided when
possible.
Word that the search had come to an end broke
Monday afternoon as SukkauвЂ™s family and friends
posted the news online, including on the Find Travis

Facebook page, which was created that day to coordinate the communityвЂ™s volunteer search efforts
after RCMP called off the official search.
Sukkau left home early on Oct. 23 to reportedly
photograph the fall colours in the park. His family contacted RCMP that evening when he failed to
return home. Search efforts began later that same
night.
SukkauвЂ™s car was found in a wooded area at the
park and had been observed parked there since before noon on the day he went missing.
Search and rescue teams made up of personnel
from several departments spent the weekend looking for Sukkau, making use of helicopters, search
dogs, thermal imaging, and drones to hunt for any
signs of the young man in the nearly 700 acres of
woodland in the valley.
For the first time on Monday, the search opened
up to community volunteers, whose efforts halted
midday when a body was found.
No further information on the investigation was
available at press time.
Volunteers thank community
for outpouring of support
Over the weekend, while emergency personnel
handled the search for Travis Sukkau in the Pembina Valley Provincial Park, local charitable group
Donate Love and the Hillside Community Church
in Morden began collecting food donations to provide rescuers with meals and snacks.
Donate LoveвЂ™s Kim Klassen said they were overwhelmed by the support they received from the
Morden-Winkler communities in those efforts.
вЂњThe outpouring of generosity from people was
amazing,вЂќ she said, noting they were able to provide drinks, snacks, and meals to the searchers

throughout the operation, including the volunteers
who took over the search from RCMP on Monday.
The leftover food will now be distributed to families in need in the two communities, she said.
Donate Love and Hillside issued a thank-you to
the many individual donors and businesses who
helped out, including: Morden Chicken Chef, Coop Foods, Morden Coffee Culture, Morden Tim
Hortons, Winkler Subway, The Outpost Grill, Triangle Oasis, Del Rios, Kopper Kettle, Morden McDonalds, Pembina Valley Online, and Radio 88.9.

Martin Harder back for
third term as mayor
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The new City of Winkler council
will be split between the old and
the new, as Winkler voters gave
all the incumbent candidates back
their seats in last weekвЂ™s election, in
addition to voting in three newcomers.
Voter turnout for the Oct. 22 election was 38.1 per cent (up a full 10
per cent from the 2010 election),
with 2,481 of the 6,505 eligible voters filling out their ballots this year.
Incumbent Martin Harder defeated challenger Wolfgang Schaefer
in the mayorвЂ™s race, earning 1,675
votes to SchaeferвЂ™s 737.
Also elected to city council for another four years were incumbents
Don Friesen (1,741 votes), Marvin
Plett (1,688 votes), and Henry Siemens (1,677 votes). Newly elected to
council were Don Fehr (1,234 votes),
Andrew Froese (1,475 votes), and
Michael Grenier (1,186 votes).
Losing their election bids were
David Guenther (645 votes), Teresa
Penner (1,040 votes), Neil Reimer
(567 votes), and Zahid Zehri (736
votes).
Mayor Harder said the day after
the election that heвЂ™s thrilled to
have the confidence of Winkler voters as he begins his third straight
term in office.
вЂњItвЂ™s certainly a pleasure to see the
number of people that came out to
vote, just over 38 per cent,вЂќ he said,
adding he hopes the increasing voter turn-out trend will continue in
future election years. вЂњItвЂ™s gratifying
to see that I got 70 per cent of the
support.вЂќ
вЂњI think the issues were pretty
clear and our leadership style, my
leadership style and councilвЂ™s leadership style, was very clear and I
think the community supported it,
as all the incumbents were re-elected,вЂќ Harder added. вЂњWe also have a
nice slate of newcomers . . . I think

Incumbents all re-elected in City of Morden
By Cori Bezan
The Morden city council looks almost exactly the same as it did prior
to the elections held on Oct. 22.
With Mayor Ken Wiebe re-elected
by acclamation and the five incumbent councillors also retaining their
seats, only one new face will appear
at the table for the next term.
Alex Fedorchuk (who previously
served two terms on council from
2002-2010) was voted back to council
with 959 votes, taking the vacant seat
left by the retiring Maurice Butler.
Fedorchuk joins incumbents Hank
Hildebrand (952 votes), Doug Frost
(897 votes), Heather Francis (884
votes), Brian Minaker (854 votes), and
Irvin Wiebe (786 votes).
Candidates Harvey Kinsman (759
votes), Bill Potter (569 votes), Marilyn
Skubovius (624 votes), Lorne Stelmach (457 votes), and Brian Thiessen
(647 votes) all lost their bids for a seat.
Morden saw a 33 per cent voter turnout at the elections this year.
Seeing council come back mostly intact from the last term is a vote of confidence from Morden residents, says
Mayor Ken Wiebe.
вЂњItвЂ™s rewarding, but itвЂ™s also a little
bit intimidating and itвЂ™s also a little bit
humbling to realize that people have
that much confidence in you and nobody even wants to run against you,вЂќ
he said on his acclamation. вЂњItвЂ™s a lot
of things, but IвЂ™m appreciative of the
fact that the community has the faith
in myself and the council. I think this
shows that our council is heading in
the right direction.вЂќ
With all of the returning experience
at the table, Wiebe said that they can
quickly turn their eyes to the times
and projects ahead, including moving
ahead with the 2014 Corporate Plan
and finding a solution to the day care
problem.
вЂњFour years ago I wanted to see
more day care, and that is something
that we havenвЂ™t been able to bring to
the fore,вЂќ Wiebe said. вЂњItвЂ™s still something weвЂ™re working onвЂ”we havenвЂ™t
given up on it. This city has committed money to it and weвЂ™re now waiting for the province to come on board.
Once they come on board then we
can carry on.вЂќ
вЂњWe have the money set aside for
a day care, but the way the funding
from the province works is if we start
anything before we are given a grant
by the province they will match what
we have, but if we do anything ahead
of time, whatever weвЂ™ve done in ad-
our plan right now, and it gives us a
more solid base come spring for putting in a street.вЂќ
Looking ahead, Wiebe also hopes to
continue working on city infrastructure, installing new sidewalks, and
working towards water and wastewater solutions such as a new wastewater treatment facility.
вЂњIf you have good clean water and
somewhere for it to flow when itвЂ™s not
clean anymore, youвЂ™re a progressing
community, I believe,вЂќ he said.
Council gathered on Tuesday for a
day of orientation before their inaugural meeting on Nov. 3.

While there has not yet been a case of Ebola virus disease in
Canada and the risk of the disease appearing in Manitoba is
extremely low, coordinated efforts continue to prevent
its spread from countries that currently have severe outbreaks.
If you have travelled to Liberia, Guinea or Sierra
Leone, and have any of the following symptoms:
> winkler election, from pg. 2
all of them have a lot to contribute
and I look forward to working with
them.вЂќ
Harder said that many of the issues raised during the election campaign are well-known to council,
and he is eager to get back to work
on solving them.
вЂњReally, itвЂ™s nothing different than
what weвЂ™ve been focusing on in the
last term: we have always had recreation on our agenda . . . and it will
happen within the next term,вЂќ he
said of the expansion to the Winkler
Recreation Complex, which was
brought up as a major concern by
many voters at the Candidates Fo-
vance will not be matched, so thatвЂ™s
one of the reasons we havenвЂ™t started
yet,вЂќ he added. вЂњWeвЂ™re trying to take
advantage of the whole grant.вЂќ
Wiebe also added that they will be
proceeding very shortly with some
more of the new Tabor Home infrastructure.
вЂњWeвЂ™re now in the process of the infrastructure, [which is] pretty much
all in the ground,вЂќ he said. вЂњI think everything that has to go in the ground
is pretty much done, and now weвЂ™re
going to get the base prepared for
streets for spring installation. Let it
settle over the winter, I believe thatвЂ™s
rum the week before the election.
The city will also continue to move
forward on its ongoing plans for a
new regional wastewater treatment
plant, Harder said.
вЂњWe have had a meeting with the
federal minister, we know what we
need to do with the applications
and weвЂ™re prepared to do that,вЂќ he
said. вЂњWe will put that project forward in a very short period of time
. . . likely within the next year, the
next six months.вЂќ
вЂњWe will continue to make the citizens of Winkler proud of their city,вЂќ
Harder promised for the next four
years.

Imagination Library signs-up 257 kids to start
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The Dolly Parton Imagination Library kicked off in the Winkler area
on Saturday with a huge bang, as 257
children signed up for the literacy
program in just three hours.
вЂњWe just blew DollywoodвЂ™s projections out of the water,вЂќ committee
chair Joyce Sawatzky said at dayвЂ™s
end, noting they had been told to expect closer to 60 kids on opening day.
Instead, hundreds of parents filled
WinklerвЂ™s Central Station community centre Saturday morning and
afternoon to register their pre-school
children for the program, which
mails out a free book every month to
children from birth until they start
kindergarten.
Sawatzky, a local school librarian,
said the program is going to have a
big impact on the literacy levels of
students in the Garden Valley School
Division catchment area.
вЂњWe have a lot of illiteracy in the
area, and with these books, children
having exposure to books, when they
come to school having had experience with books, we just think itвЂ™s
going to make a huge difference,вЂќ she

first child at the kick-off on Saturday. Seven-month-old Charlotte and
her mom Destiny Klassen were among the hundreds who came out
to register for the free literacy program at the launch party.
said. вЂњThis program has made a difference wherever it has been in both
literacy rates when the children start
school as well as in graduation rates,
thatвЂ™s what it translates over to.вЂќ
ItвЂ™s been a long road to get the program up and running in the area, and
it wouldnвЂ™t have been possible without the volunteers who have committed to the program and the community, which has supported the
Imagination Library to the tune of
$85,000 so far.
вЂњItвЂ™s incredibly exciting. ItвЂ™s hum-
bling. ItвЂ™s honouring that people have
caught the vision, and caught the vision for what this project can do,вЂќ
Sawatzky said.
вЂњWe are not just sending a book to a
child once a month. This can be a life
changing event. It can be something
that affects a childвЂ™s life. It essentially
can change their future.вЂќ
In order to keep the program running, ongoing donations will be
needed. Sawatzky is optimistic the
community will continue to come
through for them.
вЂњWith the response weвЂ™ve had, we
are going to continue collecting funds
and hopefully people will continue to
catch the vision for the future of Winkler,вЂќ she said, noting they recently
received word of a substantial grant
as well as a commitment of ongoing support from the Garden Valley
School Division. вЂњWith that continued
support we see only success for this
project.вЂќ
There are 1,800 kids eligible for
the program in the GVSD area, and
Sawatzky hopes to reach as many of
them as possible.

gala raises
$45,000
By Cori Bezan
An evening of good food, fellowship, prizes, and inspirational
speeches raised thousands of dollars
at the ninth annual Boundary Trails
Health Centre Foundation gala in
Morden last Friday.
вЂњIвЂ™m always totally amazed at the
support that we get from our community,вЂќ said foundation chair Debra
Enns. вЂњI think it went awesome. From
the feedback that we got after the
dinner, everybody was so pleased
with the speaker and the dinner,
the meal itself, and, from my point
of view, it went exactly the way we
planned it.вЂќ
This gala is one of the foundationвЂ™s
biggest fundraisers. While the numbers havenвЂ™t all been tallied yet, Enns
said on Monday that they expect to
have raised around $45,000 from the
sold-old evening.
вЂњWe sold 372 tickets for it, so that
was over and above what we expected,вЂќ Enns said.

I
am not a single parent.
My mum was a single
parent . . . I am not.
I am saying this because more
and more I am hearing people
say and/or intimate that they are now
single parents since their divorce/
separation/conscious
uncoupling
and I find it annoying because usually they are completely wrong.
My own relationship with my
childrenвЂ™s mother
ended more than
four years ago and
we now share joint
custody of our chilBy Peter
dren. I have the
kids one week, she Cantelon
has them another,
and this arrangement has worked
very well for us to do the best we both
can to not make a bad situation worse
for the kids. It also works because we
are in a small community.
This means that every other week
I do not have kids and the following
week I am the sole parent in the house
. . . this does not make me a single
parent on the weeks when I have the
children and a childless bachelor on
weeks when I do not. On the contrary,
I am in regular communication with
my childrenвЂ™s mum on weeks when
I have them. We text and talk about
gymnastics arrangements, school
work, discipline, health care and the
general well-being of the offspring. I
am VERY thankful for this and for her
role as my childrenвЂ™s mother.
I am not, however, a single parent,
because there is someone else out
there sharing the load.
Let me introduce you to a real single
parent. My mum was divorced from
my father when I was five. Prior to
that he was rarely around, and generally he was a cheating, drunken,
non-working, drug-using and violently abusive person. The blessing
of womenвЂ™s shelters was part of my
childhood experience.
After the divorce, dad was just gone.
Oh, we knew where he was. He never left the community, he just never
came around anymore. He also never
paid child support or alimony. He
was invisible. He was not a father. He
was not a parent.
My mum raised myself and three
sisters alone. On welfare. In provincial housing. With no parenting assistance and with all kinds of issues and
struggles she was never helped with.
She never drowned her sorrows in
alcohol or drugs despite being surrounded by an environment saturated with such abuse. She often went
without so that we would not have to.
She is my biggest hero.
That is a single parent. There was no
one there sharing the load. Not financially. Not emotionally. Not spiritually. No one but her.

A big thank-you from a grateful family
To the unknown mountain biker
who found our chocolate Lab, Hazel, on the Lake Minnewasta trail on
Tuesday, Oct. 21: Thank you so much
for taking care of her and bringing
her to the Morden Vet Clinic so that
our family could be reunited with
her.
We are sure that she enjoyed the
bike ride with you, but we are very
happy to have her back home with
us.
Thank you for your kindness.
The Nadler family, Morden
MCC should re-think where it sends its aid
Why doesnвЂ™t the MCC send Israel
ambulances or hospital supplies for
the terror victims from rocket attacks?
Maybe send some of their highfalutin psychiatrists to Israel to help
people suffering from post-traumatic stress syndrome because they
canвЂ™t sleep at night because of rocket
sirens. Their military needs blankets
and jackets and so forth. And IвЂ™m
sure there are poor people that could
use these things in Israel as well.
For sending a non-stop stream of
over 12,000 rockets, the Gazan people who voted in the terrorist organization Hamas as their leaders by
around 76 per cent got what they deserved during Operation Protective
Shield.
Building their terror tunnels with
supplies they get from other people
should only serve to make you want
to help them less.
If they had the weapons Israel
has they would nuke Israel the first
chance they got.

New faces on RM of Stanley council this term
By Cori Bezan
The RM of Stanley council will see
several new faces join the table, as
the voters elected a new reeve and
only two incumbents last week.
Morris Olafson will be taking Art
PetkauвЂ™s place as reeve, beating out
Peter Klassen with a total of 493 votes
to KlassenвЂ™s 392.
вЂњItвЂ™s a bit of a surprise,вЂќ Olafson
said. вЂњI had a very worthy opponent,
Peter Klassen. HeвЂ™s done a lot of great
work for the RM of Stanley in the last
eight or ten years.вЂќ
вЂњI look forward to working with the
new council,вЂќ he added. вЂњThereвЂ™s a
bunch of really good people on here.вЂќ
Ward one will see the return of two
familiar faces, as Peter Harold Froese (334 votes) and Bob Giesbrecht
(281 votes) were re-elected, alongside newcomers Bitz (Alfred) Loewen
(319 votes) and Don Henry Falk (288
votes). Richard Warkentin was the
only Ward 1 candidate who did not
see election.
Ward two saw five people gunning
for two councillor positions, with
Wayne Penner (243 votes) and incumbent Dick Fehr (217 votes) getting the
publicвЂ™s nod. Candidates Ike Klassen,
Edward Reimer, and Leslie Titchkosky did not win their election bids.
A total of 19 per cent of the eligible
voters in the RM of Stanley hit the
polls to cast their ballots last week.
In Ward 1, only 12 per cent of eligible voters did so, while 39 per cent of
Ward 2вЂ™s voters cast a ballot.
The blend of new and old faces on
council means that the council wonвЂ™t
be initiating any new projects right
off the hop, instead giving the newcomers time to learn the ropes, Olafson said.
вЂњI donвЂ™t see any major changes in
how the operation is,вЂќ he said. вЂњBeing
four new people on here, basically
youвЂ™ve got to play it slow for the first
little while so everybody gets up to
speed.вЂќ
вЂњItвЂ™ll be a little bit of a learning curve
here but I think the board itself has
some really smart people on here and
I donвЂ™t see it as a big, long learning
curve,вЂќ he added.
After that, Olafson said he would
like to start working on road maintenance, which had been a common
concern throughout the RM.
вЂњWe want to make sure we have a
real good consistency in our road
maintenance area so everybody is
doing the same thing,вЂќ he explained.
вЂњAll the operators are on the same
keel, and our staff to keep it all the
right way.вЂќ
Olafson wished to extend his thanks
to everyone who supported him in
the election, and also sent a message
out to his fellow council members:
вЂњWeвЂ™re here to be caretakers of the
RM of Stanley and to make life better
for everybody in the RM,вЂќ he said. вЂњI
think thatвЂ™s our goal. We want better
roads and we want lower taxes and
all this kind of thing. LetвЂ™s strive to
make that all happen.вЂќ
> imagination library, from pg. 4
вЂњThatвЂ™s what weвЂ™re going to continue to works towards,вЂќ she said. вЂњWe
have people strategically targeting
children that we really want to reach.вЂќ
If youвЂ™d like to sign your child up for
the program, stop by Central Station
(545 Industrial Dr.) Tuesday to Friday
from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
To make a donation to the program,
cheques can be made out to the Winkler Family Resource Centre with
вЂњWinkler Imagination LibraryвЂќ written on the memo line. Donations can
be mailed to: Winkler Family Resource Centre, Box 997, Winkler, MB,
R6W 4B1.
Regional election round-up
There are more than a few new
faces coming to the table at councils across the region after last
weekвЂ™s civic election.

Callum beat out Richard LeRoux in
the reeveвЂ™s race (324 votes to 123).

Robert Penner in Ward 3 (89 votes),
incumbent Huntley Knox in Ward

in Ward 5 (acclaimed).

DвЂ™hoore (158 votes), Carrie Hennan (169 votes), incumbent Bob
Horsman (236 votes), and Gary
Wieler (217 votes).

So, you see, I happen to be a parent
who is single, but I am not a single
parent.
The equation is quite simple: if there
is another parent interacting with
and contributing toward the raising

so one dinner alone goes a long way
to cover our budget for the year for
palliative care.вЂќ
Enns extended a huge thank-you
to the residents and businesses of
Morden and the surrounding area
for their continued support of the
foundation.
вЂњWe are so blessed and so fortunate to live in a community with
such generous people,вЂќ she said.

After supper, keynote speaker Tim
Hague Sr. took the stage to tell his
tale of perseverance. Hague, who
has ParkinsonвЂ™s disease, won The
Amazing Race: Canada last year with
his son.
After explaining what ParkinsonвЂ™s
disease is, Hague was able to demonstrate it, lifting his hand to show
the guests the hallmark tremors of
the neuro-degenerative disorder.
вЂњMy entire left side just rattles
around. It shakes. ThatвЂ™s ParkinsonвЂ™s,вЂќ he said.
Hague, who is a registered nurse,
noticed a shaking in his left big toe
in August of 2010. By February of
2011 he was officially diagnosed with
young onset ParkinsonвЂ™s disease.
вЂњTo say that I was angry would
be the understatement of the day,вЂќ
Hague recalled. вЂњTo say that I was
scared would be the understatement
of the year. I was not happy.вЂќ
After battling with depression,
Hague chose to embrace the diagnosis as a blessing and worked towards
slowing its effects on his life.
Despite his ParkinsonвЂ™s, Hague auditioned for the first season of The
Amazing Race: Canada with his son
Tim Hague Jr., and was accepted to
participate as the show raced across
the nation.
Hague spoke of the memorable leg
three, where he struggled with a line
dance in order to continue with the
race.
вЂњYou ever have one of those days
where you know youвЂ™re not performing to your best? You know you can
do better than this?вЂќ he asked.вЂњI simply wanted to give up and go home,
because we were not having fun.
This wasnвЂ™t enjoyable. It was rather
painful to tell you the truth.вЂќ
Hague and his son were saved by a
non-elimination round and realized
that they needed to make a change
on how they ran the race. They refocused their energies on having fun
and doing their best.
вЂњThe race taught me a very important lesson: the strength to simply do
my best and the courage to be content with what my best produced,вЂќ
he stressed. вЂњAs we learned in that
old adage long ago, the most important things that are learned are
learned in kindergarten. We took
that to heart that day, to simply have
fun and do your best.вЂќ
Hague and his son still struggled
through the race, but they managed
to beat out the other teams to secure
the victory because of one word: per-
severance.
вЂњYou Google the word perseverance, you get this definition: to continue on in a course of action even in
the face of difficulty with little or no
evidence of success,вЂќ he said.
Hague revealed that the way he
ran the race was how he decided to
run his life. He may have ParkinsonвЂ™s
disease, but it will not stop him from
doing the things he wanted.
вЂњItвЂ™s debilitating one day,вЂќ he said.
вЂњBut not today. It may one day take
my life, but today I am alive and
well.вЂќ
вЂњUntil we find a cure for it, it may
very well one day win my personal
battle with it. But not today. TodayвЂ™s
battle is mine.вЂќ
Hague ended his speech with motivating words that anyone can use for
their own personal battles.
вЂњI encourage you to persevere,вЂќ he
said. вЂњTo continue on in your struggle. Even in the face of difficulty,
even when there is little evidence of
success, persevere.вЂќ
вЂњI pray that each of you will have
the strength to do your best, the
courage to be content with what
your best produces. I pray that you
have strength for the task at hand
and courage for the road ahead.вЂќ

MP Candice Bergen recalls Ottawa shooting
By Ashleigh Viveiros
When the shots rang out in the halls of the Parliament
Buildings in Ottawa on Oct. 22, Portage-Lisgar MP Candice BergenвЂ™s first thought was that it was just more construction noise, akin to what MPs have been hearing for
weeks in our nationвЂ™s capital.
She and her fellow Conservative caucus members, who
were taking part in their weekly Wednesday morning
caucus meeting with Prime Minister Stephen Harper,
quickly realized, though, that the situation unfolding
right outside the roomвЂ™s doors was much more dire.
вЂњWe meet right in the Centre Block . . . our room where
we meet is right next to the hall where everything happened,вЂќ Bergen recalled the next day by phone from Ottawa. вЂњWe heard what I thought initially was just some
construction banging because thereвЂ™s construction going on in Parliament. And then we all just realized very
quickly it was a lot of bangs and somebody said, вЂ�ThatвЂ™s
gunfire.вЂ™вЂќ
The politicians quickly moved away from the door nearest the hall, Bergen said, first barricading it with chairs in
the hopes of preventing a gunman from entering. Across
the hall, the Opposition NDP caucus members were doing the same.
вЂњThe next 15-20 minutes, it was getting the Prime Minister in a safe, secure place . . . a guard came in very quickly and told us to stay in the room, kind of calmed us all
down, but definitely those first 15-20 minutes when we
knew thereвЂ™d been a whole bunch of gunfire, we didnвЂ™t
know who was doing the shooting, and so then you do
think, вЂ�Wow, there could be people coming in this room
any minute.вЂ™вЂќ
вЂњIt was pretty frightening,вЂќ Bergen said. вЂњYouвЂ™re thinking about what might happen next, youвЂ™re thinking
about what could happen. [I was] praying, praying and
thinking about my children and my family.вЂќ
Meanwhile, just outside the roomвЂ™s wooden doors, gunman Michael Zehaf-Bibeau was shot and killed by House
of Commons Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers.
Zehaf-Bibeau had previously fatally wounded Cpl. Nathan Cirillo at the nearby National War Memorial before
charging into the Parliament Buildings, exchanging gunfire with security and injuring one officer before running
down the Hall of Honour towards the doors to the Parliamentary Library, where he was stopped by Vickers.
Parliament Hill was locked down for several hours following the attack, while police ensured there were no
other shooters.
вЂњWe were briefed fairly quickly on what had happened
so we knew the perpetrator was dead, but we didnвЂ™t
know if there was someone else,вЂќ Bergen said, noting
they spent the next 10 hours waiting for word that it was
safe to leave the meeting room.
In the House the next morning, Vickers was given an
extended standing ovation for his bravery.
вЂњAll the parties, politics aside, we were all very happy
to be there, to be in our seats . . . and grateful to be leading the country [and] that we have Canadian people who
have resolve and resilience and will not bow to an attack
like this, a terrorist attack,вЂќ Bergen said.
вЂњThe job that we have is first and foremost is to make
sure that Canadians are protected,вЂќ she added, echoing
comments made by the Prime Minister to the nation after the attack.вЂњAfter something like this, weвЂ™re even more
resolved to make sure that . . . Canadians are safe by ensuring there are laws in place, that police have the tools
that they need to stop attacks like this and to stop people
like this who are radicalized and are a threat.
And then our resolve in helping our allies in
fighting ISIS and the threat that they pose to
other countries.вЂќ
A review of security at Parliament Hill is ongoing, but Bergen hopes the heart of CanadaвЂ™s
government will remain an accessible place for
law-abiding citizens.
вЂњDefinitely there will be some changes,вЂќ she
said. вЂњIвЂ™m sure theyвЂ™ll strike the right balance
between making sure that security is improved
9
where it needs to be improved . . . but at the
same time, keeping it as a place of the people. It
belongs to the people of Canada.вЂќ
Earlier this week, RCMP announced that they
have evidence indicating the attack was вЂњdriven
by ideological and political motives.вЂќ
Zehaf-Bibeau reportedly made a video of himself prior to the attack, which police are currently analyzing for evidence.
The video had not yet been released to the
public as of press time.

Prairie Barnwood raising funds
for Philippine orphanage
By Cori Bezan
A local business is set to raise money to support a growing orphanage in
the Philippines with a gift card program in time for the holidays.
Prairie Barnwood, located on the
south side of Morden, got its beginnings five years ago dismantling old
barns and processing the wood to
create unique, hand-crafted pieces of
furniture.
Now, owner Blayne Wyton and wife
Tara want to put the demand for their
furniture to good use half a world
away.
This holiday season, the company is
offering to donate 100 per cent of the
proceeds of all gift cards they sell to
the Gentle Hands orphanages in the
Philippines and India.
The Wytons first travelled to Gentle
Hands in Manila three years ago after
a family connection brought the facility to their attention.
вЂњMy cousin married into the family that was running the orphanage,вЂќ
Blayne said, noting the couple have
gone to visit it twice so far and have
fallen in love with the cause.
When the Wytons first attended the
orphanage, there were only 45 children, but the need has grown rapidly
and Gentle Hands today provides aid
and shelter for 89 children.
вЂњThe need is just huge,вЂќ Blayne said.
The orphanage got its beginnings as
a birthing clinic, but as other clinics
popped up in the area they shifted
their focus to caring for abused, abandoned, or neglected children.
вЂњKids that come out of poor situations or situations where the parents
just canвЂ™t afford the health care or
health for the children, so they bring
them to Gentle Hands to even get
nursed back to health in some cases,
and then they get sent home,вЂќ Blayne
explained. In other cases, the orphanage removes abused children from
their homes and works hard to find
them new, loving families.
On his last trip to Gentle Hands,
Blayne encountered a dark situation
that really stuck with him.
вЂњThis family of five kids came in a
week or two before my wife and I got
there, and the kids had all been sexually abused and physically abused
by the father, and their mother was
found murdered in the house at
Christmas-time, and we were there
in February,вЂќ he recalled.
вЂњThe one girl was about nine years
old . . . and she was out in the courtyard playing with a ball and she got
hit in the head. She started to cry,
not like a nine-year-old should: she
was looking for attention or help. So
I went and picked her up and I held
her on my lap and she kind of snuggled into my chest, and she sat there
for probably two hours. It really impacted me that this could be the first
time that a man has actually touched
her in a proper way.вЂќ
Gentle Hands also provides severely abused or ill children and young
adults with comfort and care in their
final days.
вЂњSome kids have come there and
theyвЂ™ve been beaten or abused or neglected so badly that theyвЂ™ve actually
come [to the orphanage] more to die,вЂќ
Blayne said. вЂњThey bring them into
the place and itвЂ™s just a place where
they can rest in their last year or few
weeks or days in dignity and safety.вЂќ
Tara, who traveled alone to the orphanage last March, shared a story
with her husband about a young
boy who had been brought in off the
streets, very ill and beyond help.
вЂњWhen
Tara
was there, there
was a little boy

Prairie BarnwoodвЂ™s Blayne and Tara Wyton are hoping a gift card promotion will raise upwards of $7,000 for the Gentle Hands orphanage
in Manila, Philippines this holiday season.
there they found that was 18 years
old, and he had tuberculosis,вЂќ Blayne
said. вЂњHe was neglected and abused,
so they brought him back to Gentle Hands, and this little guy was
44 pounds. An 18-year-old boy, 44
pounds. She showed me pictures; I
canвЂ™t even look at them.вЂќ
вЂњThey brought him back to die. Just
a safe, comfortable place where he
couldnвЂ™t be abused anymore, where
he could just rest and go home.вЂќ
Tara has done a lot of hands-on
work helping with some of the nursing aspects of the orphanage during
her time there.
вЂњEvery child comes with a different
story,вЂќ she said. вЂњSome are beautiful
stories, and some are terrible stories
of just hard life and scars and things
that no child should have to deal
with.вЂќ
In addition to spending time wit the
kids, Blayne also helped local carpenters put a second level on the orphanage on his last trip.
вЂњThey have a very primitive way of
building, so they were kind of teaching me how to build their way,вЂќ he
said.
Their time spent at the orphanage
has had a major impact on their lives,
the Wytons say.
вЂњTheyвЂ™re not there just to be an institution, theyвЂ™re actually there to help
launch people into their life,вЂќ Blayne
said. вЂњThat really intrigues me.вЂќ
Some children who grow up in the
orphanage without ever being adopted are still given a helping hand
as Gentle Hands helps them get into
colleges and universities and trains
them on how to live a successful adult
life when they leave the facility.
вЂњI think what strikes me is itвЂ™s not
just a facility for children to kind of
go through their childhood years,вЂќ
Blayne said. вЂњA lot of orphanages
almost remove the children after
theyвЂ™re 13 or 14 years old and then
theyвЂ™re kind of left to fend for themselves.вЂќ

community organizations and charities such
as Central Station and Donate Love. Applications are due back by Nov. 28.

Charley BвЂ™s co-owner Katelin Letkeman talked about the importance
local suppliers have had in the restaurantвЂ™s success at the Winkler
chamberвЂ™s Small Business Week Luncheon last Thursday.
вЂњChar and I had fashioned our
menu using the local culture and it
just did not sit right with us to use big
food suppliers for the ingredients,вЂќ
she said. вЂњI mean, we live in an agricultural community so we might as
well utilize it . . . we realized that most
of our menu could be created using
local ingredients. Thus, Charley BвЂ™s
slogan was born: local, farm-fresh.вЂќ
Buying local has proven a huge
benefit for the restaurant, providing
the freshest ingredients possible for
better tasting food and also allowing
them to thank the community that
has welcomed them with open arms
by ensuring the companyвЂ™s dollars
are spent close to home.
вЂњAs a local small business, we believe if we want the community to
support us, we must support the
community in return,вЂќ Letkeman said.
Up next, Eden Health Care Services
CEO James Friesen took the stage to
talk about the work the organization
is doing across southern Manitoba.
The chamber invites one local nonprofit organization to speak at the
luncheon every year.
Eden has come a long way since being founded in Winkler in 1967, Friesen said, today offering far more than
the acute care centre it began with.
вЂњI think when you think of Eden,
most of you probably think of the
mental health centre, again because
itвЂ™s been a presence this community
for so long,вЂќ he said.
вЂњOur vision and mission states simply that people on the mental health
journey experience hope, healing,
and community,вЂќ Friesen said. вЂњOur
mission is to respond to the community by providing a range of services
that will empower persons with mental health needs.вЂќ
To that end, in addition to the acute
care centre in Winker, Eden also offers its community health services,
the Recovery of Hope counselling
program, Segue Career Options, and
its various housing and support services programs. All these services
seek to help people struggling with
mental health issues address those
challenges, find safe housing, and
work towards securing meaningful
employment.
Friesen noted that the organization
relies on the communityвЂ™s support to
do all these things, and he thanked
the business leaders for continuing to
provide that support.
Wrapping up the luncheon was
Henry Siemens of Serious Marketing,
who talked about starting up his company with partner Myron Cornelson
two years ago.
The company strives to help companies navigate the increasingly complicated marketing waters before
them, he said, ensuring a consistent
message and brand goes out across
all mediums.
вЂњAs we dealt with clients time and
time again, they would tell us that the
market in our area was different. ItвЂ™s
different than it was 10 years ago, 15
years ago,вЂќ Siemens said, pointing to
increasing number of ways companies can market themselves and their
products.
Since starting, the company has
quickly grown and expanded, changing even as the local market needs
continue to change, Siemens said.
вЂњTwo years later our business is almost completely different than it
was when we start because we find
that doors open and doors close and
thereвЂ™s opportunities everywhere if
youвЂ™re prepared to listen to them.вЂќ
> gentle hands, from pg. 10
Blayne and Tara are planning to
make another trip to the Philippines
to visit Gentle Hands next spring,
and this time, they hope to bring other people with them who also want
to lend a hand.
вЂњWeвЂ™d like to go back but this time
weвЂ™d like to take a group of people
with us that can come and experience it, and kind of put their expertise to it as well,вЂќ Blayne said. вЂњPeople
that are just interested in helping.вЂќ
In order to help raise funds for
Gentle Hands, Blayne decided to
kick off a new gift card fundraiser
this Christmas.
вЂњItвЂ™s always exciting to give financially to these different causes, but
what I really want to do is make a
stand for what Prairie Barnwood
stands for,вЂќ Blayne said. вЂњThe other
thing is inviting other people to be
a part of it. Not just taking proceeds
from the company and giving them
away, but actually inviting other people.вЂќ
With 100 per cent of the gift card
proceeds going to Gentle Hands,
Blayne says they hope to raise $7,000
to aid in the day-to-day operational
expenses and outreach projects in
the Philippines, and also help with
the renovation of a building to start a
new Gentle Hands location in India.
Gift cards can be purchased instore at 29026 Willcocks Road in
Morden or online at www.prairiebarnwood.com. Every $100 spent on
gift cards will also give the buyer an
entry into a draw for a dining room
set valued at $6,000.
вЂњItвЂ™s a hand-crafted dining room set
to the size and dimensions and colour and style of your choice,вЂќ Blayne
said.
вЂњI think it creates an awareness,вЂќ
Tara said of the gift card program.
вЂњI think in the way that our societ-
ies are, in the way that our world is,
sometimes we get focused internally
and really kind of get busy doing life
and get busy just kind of in our own
things. I think sometimes we forget that there are in the Philippines
alone there are millions of children
that have no parents, no home, no
food, no shelter, and theyвЂ™re being
able to be cared for at a place like
Gentle Hands.вЂќ

Northland Childcare Centre celebrates one year
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The Northland Childcare Centre
in Winkler marked its one-year anniversary last week in the perfect
way: lots of candles (each child got a
muffin with one on top for morning
snack), cake (both an edible one and
a colourful wall display cake courtesy
of the kids), balloons, and thank-yous
to everyone who helped the day care
become a reality.
Located at Northlands Parkway
Collegiate, the community day care
has seen a lot of growth since it first
opened its doors last fall, says executive director Kim Giesbrecht.
вЂњWhen we started we had 38 enrolled and now we have 78 enrolled
and weвЂ™re at 70 per cent of our occupancy,вЂќ she says, noting those 78
kids include both part- and full-time
spaces.
The centre has grown its staff, as
well, over the last year to accommodate the increasing number of kidsвЂ”
theyвЂ™re at 20 employees right now,
which is nearly double what they
started withвЂ”and theyвЂ™ll continue to
do so as they aim to reach 86 per cent
occupancy by next year.
вЂњWe are growing the way we want to
grow,вЂќ Giesbrecht says. вЂњWeвЂ™re want-

ing to not grow too fast because we
want to know our space, know how to
use our space . . . and we canвЂ™t do that
properly if weвЂ™re completely full.вЂќ
Since opening, NCC has made a few
tweaks to its facility to better accom-
modate the needs of its staff and children, including developing a proper
greenspace area for kids to enjoy just
outside the front door, and building
additional storage space inside as
well as a storage shed outside.
вЂњItвЂ™s a beautiful space,вЂќ Giesbrecht
says, noting they also love the location, which allows the centre to welcome students from NPCвЂ™s community health and child care and Life
Skills programs into the centre as
volunteers and interns.
As a charitable organization, NCC
accepts financial donations towards
its ongoing operations, as well as donations of toys, books, and other new
or gently-used items.
вЂњWe have people regularly coming
by with those types of things, which
we really appreciate that,вЂќ Giesbrecht says, noting you can contact
the centre at 204-325-5667 if youвЂ™d
like to make a donation.
вЂњWe are always trying to get out
into the community, make sure people know about us,вЂќ she adds, noting
theyвЂ™ve held a few fundraisers over
the last year and plan to hold more
in the months ahead.

MCDC changes to aid in cityвЂ™s growth
By Cori Bezan
The City of Morden is teaming up
with the Morden Community Development Corporation to restructure
the organization and its processes,
making way for increased efficiency
and progress when it comes to handling the cityвЂ™s economic development.
Council agreed to enter an option
agreement with the MCDC on Oct.
14, providing MCDC with certainty
that they can pursue вЂњeconomic development opportunitiesвЂќ on the
commercial and industrial land parcels that they have available to them.
In addition, the current MCDC
board will be dissolved as of Nov. 30
with the exception of chairman John
Wiens, who will submit suggestions
to council for consideration as new
board members.
Both of these changes will streamline some processes for the organization, said Mayor Ken Wiebe.
вЂњ[Before] if our MCDC had a proposal from a corporation that wanted
to come here, they would have to
bring it to council,вЂќ Wiebe explained.
вЂњIf council had just met that Monday,
they would have to wait another two
weeks to get in front of council, and
then if there were any questions we
would have to get back to them, and
then they would get back to us, so it
could be four to six weeks before a
decision is made.вЂќ
вЂњBy allowing [MCDC] to take care
of some of these details and to look
after it, them and the city manager,
it removes a lot of hurdles,вЂќ he said.
вЂњIf thereвЂ™s a great opportunity, we can
move on it very quickly as opposed to
a month or two monthsвЂ™ delay.вЂќ
These changes come in combination
with some changes made in the cityвЂ™s
Corporate Plan for 2014, expressing
the cityвЂ™s vision to grow the population to 15,000 residents by the year
2020.
вЂњThe City of Morden is committed
to its vision for 2020 and in becoming
a flourishing community,вЂќ stressed
Wiebe. вЂњTo do this we must remove
the hurdles that delay moving forward.вЂќ
MCDC also has a strong vision for
the growth of the city and maintaining a balance between economic and
environmental sustainability.
вЂњThese changes are the most progressive I have seen in all my years of

Koats for Kids kicks off this week
By Cori Bezan
The Morden and District United
Way and the Morden fire department
are looking for donations of new or
gently used winter clothing items for
the annual Koats for Kids campaign,
which launched this week
вЂњWhat is does for the community,
number one . . . if itвЂ™s in reasonably
good shape, it gives them a good place
to take that and it can probably have
another life,вЂќ said the United WayвЂ™s
Terry Gibson of the donated items.
вЂњThe other good thing is we have
all sorts of people in town who have
larger families and it gives a place
where they can come in and get fitted
out with very nice clothing actually.вЂќ
The iconic big red box is already in
place behind the Morden Fire Hall for
citizens to drop off their gently-used
and in good condition winter clothing. Many people in the area also knit
brand-new articles such as mittens
and scarves for donation.
While thatвЂ™s all more than welcome,
вЂњwhat weвЂ™re after is coats,вЂќ Gibson

Last year Koats for Kids handed
out over 300 articles of winter clothing to children and families in Morden and area.
While they focus on being able to
help outfit children, Gibson said
that they do get a number of coats
for adults, too.
After a couple of weeks of collection, the first free distribution night
will take place on Nov. 13, followed
by two more on Nov. 20 and Nov.

6 p.m.
вЂњWeвЂ™ll collect coats right up until

After the event is over, United Way
teams up with the Morden Police
Service and the RCMP to send the
leftover clothing to people in northern communities.
вЂњItвЂ™s not very hard to do, and itвЂ™s
recycling some good articles that

said. вЂњIt is a good feeling, but more

president of the organization.
The non-profit association was started many years ago, but grew quiet until recently when McFadden became
more aware of a growing number of
families looking for help.
вЂњWeвЂ™re starting to get it going again,
and that helps a little bit, to help deal
with it,вЂќ she said. вЂњWith more families
we can communicate and network
and itвЂ™s relatively unknown to most
people.вЂќ
McFadden hopes to spread awareness for the rare disease in the province, provide support for children and
families dealing with Rett Syndrome,
and help fund a registry that will help
determine how many people actually
have Rett Syndrome in Canada.
Because of privacy laws in Manitoba,
it is very difficult to reach out to local
families dealing with Rett Syndrome,
but McFadden said that doctors have
diagnosed at least 40 patients provincially.
That said, the association has only
been able to reach out to eight families so far, including one in the Pembina Valley area, which is why they hope
to aid the funding for the registry.
вЂњWeвЂ™re pretty sure thereвЂ™s so many
more girls out there that have it that
arenвЂ™t diagnosed with it, just because
people donвЂ™t know about it,вЂќ McFadden said. вЂњThese girls sort of fall
through the cracks.вЂќ
вЂњThe association is originally in
place and it still is in place as a support for families,вЂќ McFadden said.вЂњItвЂ™s
sort of an alone place when you first
learn about Rett Syndrome, because
when you first learn your child has
Rett Syndrome, with the privacy act,
thereвЂ™s not a lot of places you can go
besides the internet to find parents
that have girls with Rett Syndrome.вЂќ
вЂњWe as a group stay connected for
families,вЂќ she continued. вЂњWhy? For
support and also for help, outreaches,
things like that, because the system
doesnвЂ™t always tell you where youвЂ™re
supposed to get help or where you
can get help, so you have to search
that on your own. WeвЂ™re trying to
work as a networking group so we
can help each other with programs
that we know of or things like that.вЂќ
McFadden added that they hope to
build the association so that they can
host conferences and seminars for
families, caregivers, and health care
providers on the syndrome, further
getting the word out about the disorder.
вЂњWe really want to start getting
through to the doctors and the therapists what Rett Syndrome is and how
they can diagnose it or how they can
find it or spot it,вЂќ she said. вЂњAs the
word gets out, as our Rett Syndrome
association starts going again, hopefully weвЂ™ll find more families that way,
too.
In addition to McFadden, the associationвЂ™s new board of directors will
have some local ties, as Morden nurse
Janice Lukowski, who has worked
with Ema for two years, will take over
responsibilities as secretary, and Roland residents Kathy and George
Edgar, with their daughter Jody, will
serve as members at large.
More information can be found online at www.rettsyndrome.mb.ca, but
McFadden said that they are in the
process of designing a new website at
www.manitobarett.com, and the two
sites will eventually be linked.

In addition to rounding up the mitten donations, the day also included a few guests who

The trio join six acclaimed members on the board, including incumbents Sam Berg, Laurie Dyck, Leah Klassen, Tash Olfert, Brenda Willey and newcomer Garry
Bueckert.
The acclaimed trustees received six candidates for the
vacant spots. All six were asked three questions in an interview that took place the day after the Oct. 22 civic election:
вЂў Why would you like to serve on the GVSD board?
вЂў What do you see as GVSDвЂ™s celebrations and challenges?
вЂў What skill set or attributes do you bring that will benefit the board and the division?
The trustees then voted in Klassen, Letkeman, and Wallace as the new board members.
A series of board orientation meetings will now take
place before the Nov. 10 board meeting, at which time
the boardвЂ™s standing committees will be formed and the
group will appoint a chair and vice-chair.

Annual trail ride raises $6,000 for STARS
By Cori Bezan
Over 100 riders took part in the 2014 Pembina Valley
Fall Trail Ride, an event that raises funds for local organizations while providing a weekend of scenic riding
on the trails.
вЂњThe trail ride itself, the Pembina Valley Fall Ride, has
been going on for over 30 years,вЂќ said organizer Fred
Carruthers last week. вЂњItвЂ™s been kind of done under different people in charge. I took it over eight years ago,
and when I took it over, I made it a fundraiser as well
as a trail ride.вЂќ
вЂњI made it a fundraiser because I thought we might as
well be doing it for a good cause,вЂќ he added. вЂњI wanted
to be able to donate the money, after expenses, whatever we made, to a good cause.вЂќ
Carruthers said that they have raised funds for a few
different organizations over the years, but have raised
money for the STARS air ambulance for the past two
years.
вЂњI believe STARS provides a life-saving service to especially rural people and rural communities,вЂќ he said.
вЂњMost of us we live quite a distance from hospitals.вЂќ
Carruthers also recalled an incident three years ago
where a rider was bucked off his horse on a trail ride
and STARS flew in to attend to them.
вЂњWhen youвЂ™re doing an activity like trail-riding, you

can be quite a distance off a main road where any
ambulance can get to you,вЂќ he said. вЂњSTARS can
land their helicopter nearly anywhere and provide life-saving service to you if itвЂ™s needed.вЂќ
This year, around 115 riders saddled up to
blaze the valley trails in the two-day ride in late
September, bringing in $6,000 for the air ambulanceвЂ”over $1,000 more than last year.
вЂњEverything went quite well,вЂќ Carruthers said.
вЂњThe weather was great on Saturday, Sunday was
rainy.вЂќ
The dance and the
meals also went well, he
added, and the silent and
live auctions were as popular as ever. Diamond
Doug, a cowboy poet, also returned this year for
poetry and story-telling.
Carruthers said they also saw a lot of personal
and business donations come in this year, not
just locally but also from places around the province like Brandon and Winnipeg to support the
cause.
вЂњWe thank everyone so much for their donation
of prizes and cash donations. They make the ride
possible beside the people who do the ride. We
wouldnвЂ™t be able to raise this much money without all the donations that we get.вЂќ

Winkler-Morden area high school
students got the chance to see what
their futures could hold last week
as Northlands Parkway Collegiate
played host to the annual Garden Valley School Division Career Symposium.
вЂњThis is not to function as a job fair,
itвЂ™s more to showcase careers,вЂќ said
co-organizer and NPC guidance
counselor Kim Apperley at the Oct.
22 event. вЂњWe do have local business
and industry things here, but they
were asked specifically to let students
know what kind of positions do you
have at your business, what kind of
education is required, because then
thereвЂ™s also a tie-inвЂ”we have all the
major players, universities, colleges,
bible schoolsвЂ”so they can also direct
them to some of those institutions
where they might offer training for
different jobs and careers offered at
those places.вЂќ
Around 1,400 GVC, NPC, and Morden Collegiate students perused the
booths and displays from around 43
exhibitors at the event.
Of those exhibitors, around 20 of
them held additional break-out sessions for more in-depth information
and presentations.
вЂњHopefully it plants a seed,вЂќ Apperley said.вЂњHopefully they can get some
ideas, just get them thinking about
[the future], because four years goes
so quickly that if they can be a little
bit more deliberate in choices, even
just talk to some institutions and see
what kind of feel they get from them,
it might help them make a decision
earlier on, which makes choosing
вЂњA lot of students
donвЂ™t realize what
options they have
after high school.вЂќ
their courses in high school easier.вЂќ
This is the first time that NPC has
hosted the career symposium. Apperley noted that the event will likely
alternate between the two Winkler
high schools in future years.
вЂњIt is nice to showcase our new
building,вЂќ she said. вЂњI know a lot of
the exhibitors asked to have a tour at
the end of the day, so itвЂ™s a privilege to
be able to host and to be able to offer
to students in our building. They have
access to really any post-secondary
information that they want.вЂќ
вЂњIt was nice to have our own culinary students be able to prepare stuff
for our exhibitors, and our exhibitors
see the kind of skills theyвЂ™re learning
here in the culinary program and in
the bake shop and patisserie,вЂќ Apperley added. вЂњI think thatвЂ™s been nice, to
have it all really in-house . . . and just
to showcase our students and what a
great job theyвЂ™ve done in learning.вЂќ
Rebecca Hamilton, a pharmacist at
PfahlвЂ™s Drugs, was among the exhibitors at the event.
вЂњI think itвЂ™s actually pretty good,вЂќ
she said of the dayвЂ™s activities, commenting on the additional space in

the new schoolвЂ™s gymnasium and the
talent of the culinary arts students.
PfahlвЂ™s Drugs has attended the fair
for the past three or four years, after
Hamilton expressed interest to her
boss that she wanted to help showcase a career as a pharmacist.
вЂњIt was because of a career fair like
this that I actually talked to a pharmacist and got interested in the field,вЂќ
she explained.
Hamilton added that career symposiums like this one are extremely
beneficial to students, who still might
be looking for their options after
graduation.
вЂњItвЂ™s good because they can see all
the different universities, they can
ask the questions of what kind of
courses do I need to take,вЂќ she said.
вЂњItвЂ™s just great to see all these facilities coming out.вЂќ
вЂњI think it just gives them a better
idea of whatвЂ™s available to them.вЂќ
ThatвЂ™s a sentiment echoed by Salon Professional Academy director
of admissions and student services
Stephanie Dzikowicz, who was onhand with a few of the institutionвЂ™s
students, demonstrating hair-styling,
make-up, and mini manicures.
вЂњI think itвЂ™s really important for students, because a lot of students donвЂ™t
realize what options they have after
high school,вЂќ she said. вЂњI think the
majority of them are being pushed
towards university and thatвЂ™s not always the best fit for students. I feel
like things like this give them a real
eye-opener about the options out
there and the different things that
might suit them better.вЂќ
GVC Gr. 10 students Damaris Heinrichs and Angela Heinrichs both enjoyed this yearвЂ™s event, browsing the
exhibits for ideas on what they might
like to work towards in the coming
years.
вЂњItвЂ™s really nice,вЂќ said Damaris, who
attended the symposium last year.
вЂњWe have lots of opportunities to
look at stuff and they give us lots of
information, so itвЂ™s really nice.вЂќ
вЂњI think it was really awesome,вЂќ
added Angela, who was attending
the event for the first time.
Both students are still making up
their minds about their futures and
say they enjoyed the easy access to
information that the symposium provided.
вЂњNow you can have an idea of what
you could do, and then you have the
examples and the information they
give you, so you can think about it,вЂќ
Damaris said. вЂњYou can have lots of
time to think about it, and maybe every year there might be something
new, and you can just get even more
information. You can keep coming
back and learn more.вЂќ

Things getting hairy at The Bunker
By Cori Bezan
Men around the world are putting down the razor and letting
their beards and moustaches go wild next month to raise awareness about menвЂ™s health issues.
вЂњMovember is an attempt to spread awareness for menвЂ™s health,вЂќ
explained The Bunker team captain Jeff Boschmann. вЂњIt started
out as a way to fight against prostate cancer and over the years
itвЂ™s kind of evolved into this much larger scheme.вЂќ
Last year, the Movember campaign was focused largely on
mental health, Boschmann said, but this year they are focused on
menвЂ™s health issues in general.
вЂњI think itвЂ™s starting to catch on and people are realizing there
are a bunch of different things that need to be focused on rather
than just one thing at a time,вЂќ he said.вЂњI think you can never really
stop talking about those kinds of issues.вЂќ
The local Movember team at the youth ministry, which has been
participating for about four years now, currently consists of nine
people, but Boschmann said that their numbers will grow as they
head into the infamous month of facial hair.
вЂњWeвЂ™re just having fun with it,вЂќ he said. вЂњWhen we joined the
organization three years ago . . . we thought it was really just like
a fun thing to do. We saw these guys, we found them online, and
we thought, yeah, moustaches are cool, and cancer sucks, and
these guys are having a really good time with it in Australia, and
then we started talking to more people.вЂќ
Boschmann said that a lot of people thought that the event was
simply a вЂњNo Shave NovemberвЂќ without realizing that it stood for
something important.
вЂњWe realized Movember is actually a thing, itвЂ™s actually an organization, itвЂ™s a group of guys who are actually trying to do someContinued on page 20

13th Battery holds training exercise in Morden
By Cori Bezan
The Royal Canadian Legion hall
in Morden played host to a unique
event last Thursday, as seven members of the 13th Battery of the 26th
Field Regiment took part in a special
command post training exercise.
вЂњWeвЂ™re training to get ready to go
and fire live with artillery shells,вЂќ explained WinklerвЂ™s Capt. Mark Wilson.
вЂњThereвЂ™s a lot of pieces to this. You

the radio conversations.
have guys talking on the radios, we
have guys working on the computers.
ItвЂ™s all technical drills. So how weвЂ™re
using our radios, how weвЂ™re talking
on the radios, how weвЂ™re computing
all of these different drills, we want to
make sure we get things right.вЂќ
The session was part of regular
training as the troops prepared for a
larger exercise in Shilo over the weekend. While Wilson is a high school
teacher at Garden Valley Collegiate,
most of the others in the 13th Field
Battery hail from Portage la Prairie or
Winnipeg.
вЂњNormally we parade in Portage,
but we know that thereвЂ™s some interest in the area of military things,
and we have a good relationship here
with Royal Canadian Legion Branch
11, who was nice enough to let us use
their facility,вЂќ Wilson explained. вЂњWe
thought weвЂ™d give it a try down here
and see how it works.вЂќ
Wilson served in Afghanistan in
2007 and the Legion invited him to
speak about his experiences when he
returned. Through his involvement
with the Winkler Remembrance Day
Service, Wilson has maintained his
relationship with the Legion over the
last few years.
вЂњThis seemed like a natural extension,вЂќ Wilson said. вЂњWhy not have a
troop down here that could do some
training?вЂќ
During the course of the evening,
the men practiced firing artillery in
on-paper simulations.
While the concept sounds fairly straightforward, the process is
lengthy and must be followed to the
letter. Communications between the
observation post and the command
post must be concise, fully documented, mapped on paper, and calculated
on computers before any shots can be
fired.
If everything is going smoothly, the
entire process should take around
two minutes from receiving their directions to firing.
вЂњItвЂ™s a bit of a complicated process
to make happen, and thatвЂ™s why we
practice this so much,вЂќ Wilson said.
вЂњItвЂ™s not simple stuff.вЂќ
Sgt. Cody McMullen was acting as
the technical supervisor in the command post for the eveningsвЂ™ exercise,
a position usually held by someone
one rank higher than himself.
вЂњItвЂ™s very common in the Canadian
Army . . . where we train above what
we are,вЂќ he said.вЂњIвЂ™m practicing something that IвЂ™m not slated to do at any
point in time in the near future anyway, but itвЂ™s good to at least prepare
and practice just to keep my skills
fresh.вЂќ
McMullen added that the majority of their troop doesnвЂ™t work in the
command post, so the session proved

thing with it, not just be all gross
and shaggy,вЂќ he explained. вЂњSo we
figured, why not actually do something with this fun month while
weвЂ™re doing it anyway?вЂќ
But while they are hoping to have
fun with the event, Boschmann added that it will be a вЂњreserved excitementвЂќ this year. The local Movember
team is looking to help financially
support a past volunteer and current friend of The Bunker who was
recently diagnosed with cancer.
вЂњIt hits a little bit more close to
home this year,вЂќ Boschmann said.
вЂњWe had a volunteer who wanted to
work here this fall, and then he got
diagnosed with cancer, so the whole
chemo thing is kind of keeping him
away from everything.вЂќ
вЂњWe hung out with him last week
and we sat down, kind of came up
with a plan to make Movember a
little bit more personal for all of us,вЂќ
he said. вЂњSo instead of putting on
big different random weird events
around town, weвЂ™re being a little bit
more thoughtful with it and a little
less crazy.вЂќ
The team has already raised $100
through online pledges. Funds will
go to help their friend make endвЂ™s
meet during this difficult time.
вЂњWhatever physical cash we make,
weвЂ™re hoping to help him out with
some medical bills,вЂќ Boschmann
said. вЂњIt was kind of just natural for
us. WeвЂ™re raising money for cancer
this month. HeвЂ™s telling us вЂ�I have
cancer, and because of it, IвЂ™m lacking
funds.вЂ™ Why donвЂ™t we just combine
the two things?вЂќ
Overall, Boschmann said that they
hope to raise $1,000 through online
donations and physical donations at
drop boxes in the community and at
The Bunker.
вЂњWe hit $100 and the month hasnвЂ™t
even started yet, so I think we can
do $1,000,вЂќ he said.
Donations can be made at the
Bunker weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5
p.m. or online to The Bunker team at
ca.movember.com.
Step with FTC into
The Secret Garden
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The Flatlands Theatre Company
is bringing another much-loved
story to the stage next week with
its performance of France Hodgson BurnettвЂ™s The Secret Garden.
вЂњI think itвЂ™s really a beautiful story of changing your life around,вЂќ
says director Jeanette Hoeppner.
вЂњYou have a certain trajectory, and
things are dark and not looking
so great, and itвЂ™s nature that starts
[turning it around] for young Mary
Lennox. NatureвЂ™s what started her
to look beyond her own wall of
grief, wall of angst and thinking
no one cares about me, so why
should I care about anything? And
she starts to care about a garden,
and it makes all the difference.вЂќ
If youвЂ™re not familiar with the
classic story, The Secret Garden begins when Mary Lennox, a sullen
and spoiled young orphan, is sent
to live with her brooding uncle.
Several unexpected discoveries, including that of a neglected
secret garden, start Lennox and
those around her on the path of
transformation.
The cast is filled with several
young actors in the lead roles.
Finding the right kids proved less
challenging than might be expected, Hoeppner said, and the entire
cast has really stepped up to tell
the story.
вЂњAll of them knew the story and
thatвЂ™s why the came,вЂќ she said. вЂњSo
the excitement that they have in
getting to bring the story alive has
been great.вЂќ
Taking on the role of Mary is
15-year-old Kennedy Daneault.
Daneault has taken part in FTCвЂ™s
theatre classes and been involved
in several other theatrical productions as an actor and stage manager, but this will be her biggest
leading role.
вЂњI grew up watching the movie,вЂќ
she said, noting itвЂ™s been a bit surreal to be involved in bringing that
same story to the stage. вЂњWhen I
was little I used to always want to
be Mary Lennox.вЂќ
Daneault believes the play continues to resonate across the generations because вЂњyou can really
> exercise, from pg. 20
to be good practice for them.
вЂњItвЂ™s good to practice stuff that I am qualified to do and
get a refresher on it,вЂќ he said. вЂњAs opposed to losing this
information and these skills, itвЂ™s good to keep it refreshed,
on the top of my mind.вЂќ
вЂњThis is all about teamwork,вЂќ Wilson added. вЂњArmy is all
teamwork. Yes, we have ranks and stuff, but weвЂ™re a team.вЂќ
Other than artillery, Wilson said that they can work on
a number of different things during a parade, including
infantry, marching, survival skills, weapons, and land surveying.
вЂњI do think this is worthwhile training,вЂќWilson said.вЂњIt is
a valuable way to serve your country.вЂќ
вЂњI think being in the Canadian Forces is a very prestigious job,вЂќ said Master Bombardier Dave Lamirande.
вЂњThereвЂ™s tons of opportunities that you can do. ItвЂ™s one
of the most professional organizations in the country,
thereвЂ™s so many job opportunities, itвЂ™s endless. You can do
whatever you want.вЂќ
While Wilson is the only Winkler man in his battery,
there are other part-time civilian soldiers like himself
who travel great distances for their parades. Wilson said
that there is an opportunity to start a troop locally, and
last weekвЂ™s exercise was evidence that it could work.
вЂњI think thereвЂ™s a bit of an untapped potential here,вЂќ he
said.вЂњI think it would be a great thing to start a troop here.
The nearest one would be Portage or Winnipeg, and there
are guys driving from Plum Coulee or Winkler or Morden
all the way into Winnipeg for like a Tuesday night parade

connect to most of the characters. And
thereвЂ™s just so many different layers to
the characters.вЂќ
Making up the younger portion of the
cast are 11-year-olds John Trinke, who
plays Colin, and Kate Heide, who uses
her flute-playing skills to represent the
robin in the garden.
вЂњI just jumped at the chanceвЂќ to be a
part of the show, Heide said, noting she
read a junior edition of the book prior
to getting involved in this, her first play
with Flatlands.
вЂњThis is my first time doing anything
with Flatlands,вЂќ Trinke added, noting
heвЂ™s enjoyed being involved with various school productions in the past. вЂњI
from 7 oвЂ™clock to 10.вЂќ
вЂњI think it would be good if we had people who
are interested,вЂќ said Lamirande. вЂњIвЂ™d be more
than willing to come here and do whatever.вЂќ
вЂњIвЂ™d be willing to come down here a bit more
and see what [Morden] is all about,вЂќ he added.
вЂњLetвЂ™s do it in Morden,вЂќWilson concluded.вЂњWe
like working with a whole bunch of different people.вЂќ
Trinke and Heide think audience
members will enjoy the surprises the
script includes, but are mum on providing many hints so as not to spoil it for
audience members new to the story.
вЂњYou just feel like youвЂ™re at home in the
garden,вЂќ Heide said, urging people to
come check it out.

30 days, 50,000 words: time to get writing
By Cori Bezan
Writers, get ready to put your pen to
the paper as National Novel Writing
Month kicks off again this November.
NaNoWriMo encourages writers to
throw off their inner editor and endeavour to write 50,000 words in a
crazy 30-day frenzy, hopefully ending
the month with a rough draft to work
with later.
вЂњEvery year, weвЂ™re reminded that
there are still stories that have yet
to be told, still voices yet to be heard
from all corners of the world,вЂќ said
executive director Grant Faulkner in
a press release. вЂњNaNoWriMo helps
people make creativity a priority in
life and realize the vital ways our stories connect us. We are our stories.вЂќ
This year, 400,000 people are expected to participate across the globe,
and the Pembina Hills Arts Council
will be opening their doors to the local writers taking part each week.
вЂњAs an arts council, people often
think of us as the gift shop and gallery, but thatвЂ™s only one small portion
of what weвЂ™re involved in and what
weвЂ™re trying to promote,вЂќ explained
PHAC executive director Amanda
Nicholls. вЂњAs an arts council, working
out of the arts centre on Stephen St.,
our goal is to promote arts and culture from all the different sectorsвЂ”be
it visual arts, performing arts, literary
arts, theatre, these sorts of thingsвЂ”to
promote all of those and create more
engagement and more awareness for
the creativity that exists here, and
then build on that.вЂќ
Literature is an area that has not often been focused on in the past, but
the gallery is changing that by hosting write-ins every Thursday evening
from 7 to 9 p.m. in November, providing a creative environment for writers
to socialize, get help, and simply not
have to work alone.
вЂњWhen this opportunity came along
and Alex [Klages, municipal liaison]
began talks with us, we just thought
it was an excellent opportunity,вЂќ
Nicholls explained. вЂњItвЂ™s such a great
program for the community to get involved in. ItвЂ™s free, thereвЂ™s a whole ton
of benefits for the participants. ItвЂ™s a
really great program.вЂќ
The gallery will also play host to
the NaNoWriMo wrap-up party in
conjunction with their holiday open
house on Dec. 4 from 6-8 p.m.
вЂњWeвЂ™re going to have an open
mike and all the participants from
NaNoWriMo write-ins can present a
little piece about what they worked
on for the past month,вЂќ Nicholls said.
вЂњThen weвЂ™re also opening it up to the
public as well, if there are other authors from the area who have written
pieces that they want to test publicly,
this would be a great forum for that.вЂќ
Nicholls added that they are taking
the writing month one step further as
they host their own youth short story
contest.
вЂњWe wanted something that would
engage a younger audience, and itвЂ™s a
bit less daunting than 50,000 words.вЂќ
The contest has been divided up into
ages 10 to 14 and 15 to 18 categories.
The short stories (one per person)
should be between 500 to 750 words
in length.
The first place winners will each
be awarded a $50 gift certificate for
PHAC and gallery programs, as well
as story publication on their website
and a feature on their social media
platforms. Second place will also be
recognized online.
The contest deadline is 5 p.m. on
Nov. 25. Entries can be submitted by
mail, email, or in person at the gallery. Entries must be submitted with a
signed contest entry form, which can
be found online at pembinahillsarts.

Book review: The Practice Revolution
In every aspect of the arts, an overwhelming theme emerges: practice.
Some arts students love practicing,
and some hate the very thought of sitting down to refine their craft.
The notion of practice and practice
time tends to evoke images of dreaded hours alone in a practice room or
studio doing the same things over
and over again.
In his recent book entitled The Practice Revolution, Philip Johnston addresses the problem of practice time
and proposes creative solutions.
Rather than discussing how much
students should practice, The Practice
Revolution seeks to revolutionize how
students practice, enabling them to
get the best results from that practice.
Several chapters focus on the teacherвЂ™s role in practice time, while other
areas of the book discuss parental
roles and give students themselves
tips on utilizing their time.
The bookвЂ™s strengths lie in its focus
on tailoring practice time to the individual. Johnston has gathered many
different ideas for aiding the effectiveness of practice time. These ideas
range from tried and true concepts
(setting a timer, working in small sections) to the wacky and weird (practice Hangman? Treating practice time
as a video game?). The Practice Revolu-
tion is full of many different ideas to
deal with every possible problem that
could arise during practice time and
novel ways to make practicing fun.
In addition to solving practice problems and creating a more enjoyable
practice experience, Johnston has
broken down the process of learning and memorization and provided
strategies for successful completion
of each stage of practice.
The end result of applying
his principles
will be a well
prepared, well
rehearsed student.
If The Practice
Revolution has a
weakness it lies By Candace
Hamm
in the fact that
several of JohnstonвЂ™s ideas would be difficult and/or
time consuming to implement.
In addition, some of the games
he uses are too complicated for the
younger children to understand. The
games would work well for older students, but since the young children
tend to be those who need the most
вЂ�funвЂ™ during their practice time, some
chapters may prove ineffective for
dealing with these students.
These weaknesses do not detract
from the overall quality of the book,
however. In general, JohnstonвЂ™s ideas
are a much needed breath of fresh air
for both teacher and student.

Prostate cancer is a deadly disease
that forms in the tissues of the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive
system that is found below the bladder
and in front of the rectum. According
to the Canadian Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Canadian men (excluding
nonmelanoma skin cancers), while the
National Cancer Institute estimates
that nearly 30,000 American men
will lose their lives to prostate cancer
in 2014, and roughly 15 percent of
American men will be diagnosed with
prostate cancer at some point in their
life.
Despite its status as a potentially
deadly disease, prostate cancer can be
beaten. In fact, the NCI notes that the
five-year survival rate for men diagnosed with prostate cancer between
2004 and 2010 was 98.9 percent, proving that a prostate cancer diagnosis is
not a death sentence. Like many types
of cancer, prostate cancer is most effectively treated when discovered in its
early stages. For example, the five-year
survival rate for patients diagnosed
www.cwwiebemedical.ca
204-325-4312
with localized prostate cancer, which
describes cancer that is found only in
the part of the body where it started,
between 2004 and 2010 was 100 percent.
Men are often their own best friends
when it comes to fighting prostate cancer. Men over 50 should speak to their
physicians about routine prostate cancer screenings, which include the prostate-specific antigen test or the digital
rectal examination. Such screenings
can help detect prostate cancer early
and dramatically improve a manвЂ™s
prognosis. In addition to screenings,
men can learn the signs and symptoms
of prostate cancer to further improve
their chances of surviving a diagnosis.
Early signs of prostate cancer
Prostate cancer does not always
show signs or symptoms in its early
stages, and thatвЂ™s because it tends to be
slow-growing. A sign of prostate cancer
refers to something that a physician or
healthcare professional can observe and
recognize, while a symptom is something that only the person experiencing
it can feel. ItвЂ™s important men recog-

nize that certain symptoms associated
with prostate cancer may be caused by
other conditions and that the presence
of these symptoms does not mean a
man has prostate cancer. However, itвЂ™s
equally important that men who notice
symptoms associated with prostate cancer bring them to the attention of their
physicians immediately.
Changes in bladder habits are among
the most common symptoms of prostate cancer, and these symptoms tend to
be early indicators of the disease. These
changes may include a frequent need to
urinate, especially at night; an intense
need to urinate; difficulty in starting or
stopping the flow of urine; inability to
urinate; weak and/or interrupted urine
stream; and burning or pain during
urination.
Blood in urine or semen and painful
ejaculation may also indicate the presence of prostate cancer.
Though prostate cancer is a potentially deadly disease, men who prioritize screening and learn to recognize its
signs and symptoms can vastly improve
their chances of surviving a diagnosis.

Flyers down
Terriers, Kings
to maintain
firm hold 2nd
Tristan Keck is
leagueвЂ™s top scorer
with 17 in 17 games
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The Winkler Flyers made good on
their home ice advantage in their last
two games, downing both the visiting Portage Terriers and the Dauphin
Kings this past week.
Last week Wednesday, Morris native and leading league scorer Tristan
Keck got his 15th goal of the season
late in the opening period to get
Winkler on the board first. Patrice
Wren took advantage of a powerplay
to make it 2-0 for Winkler just a few
minutes later.
The Terriers, who were undefeated
in the league, pushed back hard in
the second. Despite that, Winkler increased their lead to 3-0 five minutes
in thanks to a goal from Scott Gall.
Portage finally got on the board with
a goal with just 3:11 left in the period.
They went on to close the gap with a
second goal at the top of the third.
But that was as close as the Terriers
got as the FlyersвЂ™ defensive line, including 24 saves by goalie Dasan Sydora, handed Portage their first loss
of the season 3-2.
Winkler went on to notch their 11th
win of the season a few nights later
against the Dauphin Kings.

NPC Nighthawks capture home tourney title
By Ashleigh Viveiros
Photo by rick hiebert
In round robin play in the Northlands Parkway Collegiate varsity boys volleyball tournament last weekend, the Morden Thunder tried to break through NPC defenders Nigel
Klassen (left) and Brett Friesen. NPC won the game in two sets, 25-15 and 25-22.
The Northlands Parkway Collegiate Nighthawks varsity boys volleyball team captured the title of their home
tournament last Saturday.
The Nighthawks were flawless in their round robin
pool, while fellow local teams the Garden Valley Collegiate Zodiacs took third and the Morden Thunder took
fifth in their respective round robins.
From there, both GVC and NPC beat their opponents in
the semi-finals (NPC downing Westwood in two sets and
the Zodiacs besting Niverville) to come up against each
other in the final match.
NPC emerged from that victorious, beating GVC 25-21
and 25-22.
Morden, meanwhile, fell to the Leo-Remillard Renards
in two sets in the fifth-place versus fifth-place match.
Earlier in the week, the GVC girls varsity team fell to
the Morden Thunder in three sets and then downed the
Sabres in three, while the boys swept both the Thunder
and the Sabres; the NPC girls team fell to the Olympiens 1-3 while the boys fell 0-3; and the Thunder girls also
beat the Aces 3-1, while the boys fell to Altona 1-3.
In other high school sports news, the Morden Thunder
and the NPC Nighthawks faced-off in Zone 4 boys hockey last Friday night in Winkler.
Morden skated away with a 4-2 win, with Thunder goals
coming from Brendan Turnbull (with two), Keane Boucher, and Steven Baker, and NPC points scored by Cody
Friesen and Sam Voth.
Also last Friday, the GVC Zodiacs fell to the Altona Aces
9-0.
Female Hawks split Blazers, Chiefs games
By Ashleigh Viveiros
The Pembina Valley Hawks had
a split go of it last weekend, falling to the visiting Balmoral Hall
Blazers Friday but then downing
Yellowhead on Sunday.
FridayвЂ™s game started off with
a scoreless first period as the
Hawks struggled to make good
on their handful of scoring
chances.
The Blazers ended up drawing
first blood in the second, getting one past netminder Corinne
Schroeder. They did it twice more
in the third, all the while keeping
the Hawks from returning the favour.
Despite Schroeder making 20
saves in all in net, the Blazers
took the game 3-0.
The ladies shook off that lossвЂ”
only their second of the regular seasonвЂ”as they hosted the
Chiefs in Pilot Mound on Sunday.
Donning pink jerseys in support of
Cancer Awareness Month, the Hawks
pressed hard but still found themselves scoreless after the first 20 minutes. On the upside, so did the Chiefs,
who failed to break through Taylor
ReimerвЂ™s defenses in net.
After a lot of back and forth in the
second period, the Hawks finally
managed to pull ahead with a power-
play goal from Kate Friesen.
In the third, the Hawks kept a firm
hand on control of the puck. The few
times the Chiefs managed to make it
to the HawksвЂ™ zone, Reimer shut down
their chances at scoring, leading to a
1-0 shutout win for Pembina Valley.
The win brings the teamвЂ™s record
to 4-2, putting them in third place in
the Manitoba Female Midget AAA
Hockey League behind the first-place
Chiefs and the second-place Westman Wildcats.
Coming up, the Hawks hit the road
this weekend to play Central Plains
on Friday, Yellowhead on Saturday,
and the Winnipeg Avros on Sunday.
Next Tuesday the ladies host Central
Plains at home in Pilot Mound. Game
starts at 7:30 p.m.
Hawks make short work of Cougars
By Cori Bezan
The Pembina Valley Hawks bounced
back from a couple of hard losses with
a victory last Friday night against the
Southwest Cougars.
The two AAA Manitoba Midget
Hockey League teams came together
strong as the first period saw a couple
of minor penalties on both sides, but
despite multiple scoring chances, neither team gave ground and the game
headed into period two scoreless.
Pembina ValleyвЂ™s Ty Enns got his
team on the board in the second, with
a goal from Michael Wirth making it
2-0 heading into the final period.
That was another 20 scoreless minutes, giving the Hawks the shut-out
victory.
Travis Klassen defended Pembina
ValleyвЂ™s net, facing 33 shots while his
teammates sent 45 the CougarsвЂ™ way.
Top-ranked team Winnipeg Wild
hosted the Hawks on Wednesday. Results of the game were not available.
The Hawks will remain on home ice
this weekend to face off against Eastman on Friday and the Yellowhead
Chiefs on Saturday and Sunday.

Twisters down Vics, Twins
By Cori Bezan
The Pembina Valley Twisters emerged victorious from their two away games last week in
the MMJHL.
The Twisters took on the St. Vital Victorias
last Thursday, dominating the first period to
take control of the game early.
Pembina ValleyвЂ™s Joey Delaquis scored the
opening goal just over a minute into the
game, followed by another goal from Carter
Zalluski not too long after. Matthew Hadley
scored a short-handed goal for the Twisters
after a boarding minor penalty to make it 3-0.
The Victorias seized an early chance in period two, but Paul Remillard returned the
favour for the Twisters, followed by a powerplay goal from Mitch Chanel to make it a 5-1
game.
The third period became a battle as the Victorias scored their second goal. Matt Mazinke found the back of the net for the Twisters,
but the Victorias managed to sneak past the
Twisters once more as they took advantage
of a powerplay. Chanel added another goal

to the Twisters list, as did Matt Mazinke on a
power play before the game came to a close.
The Victorias took a total of 21 shots on Pembina Valley goaltender Luke Sirant, but the
Twisters outshot the Winnipeg team, making
32 attempts against them and securing the
8-3 win.
The Twisters then faced the Ft. Garry/Ft.
Rouge Twins on Sunday. After a quiet start,
the Twisters took the lead in the first period
after a goal from Chanel.
The Twins returned in the second period
with two goals of their own, but Zalluski tied
the game up quickly for the Pembina Valley
boys.
Brody Chabbert bested the Twins goaltender to tip the scales back, and despite strong
efforts on both sides, the remainder of the
game went scoreless.
The Twisters outshot the Twins with 39-35
with Alcide Grenier and took the win 3-2.
This weekend the team hosts the St. James
Canucks on Friday and the River East Royal
Knights on Saturday.

Agriculture
A fiery end to the harvest for La Salle farmer
By Harry Siemens
Farm firesвЂ”whether on or off farm
equipment, in and around grain bins
or farm buildings, dust mixed with
oil, straw, chaff, faulty wires or fuel
linesвЂ”can happen really quickly.
Case in point: it took only two minutes from fully combining soybeans
until flames engulfed the combine
Dustin Wiens was driving on Oct. 11,
with only one hour left to finish up
the 2014 harvest.
вЂњIt was exciting realizing nearing
the finish line of the 2014 harvest,
about an hour to go, when suddenly some error codes showed up on
my monitor in the cab,вЂќ says Wiens,
who farms 3,700 acres with his father
near La Salle. вЂњ[I was] looking at it
and thinking that doesnвЂ™t make any
sense, as different error messages
kept appearing . . . finally I looked in
the side mirror. I saw about five foot
flames shooting out of my engine bay
and quickly radioed my dad, Richard,
waiting with the grain cart about half
mile away.вЂќ
Next, he turned the New Holland,
CR 9090 self-propelled combine into
the wind, grabbed the fire extinguisher, and hopped off the combine
to see if there was anything he could
do to extinguish the fire.
By the time he did that and his father arrived seconds later, fire was
already raining down around them
and all they could do was watch it
burn.
A neighbour who saw the smoke
showed up with a 1,000 gallon water
trailer and a pump to help to keep
the fire down until the fire brigade
arrived to douse the remaining burning tires.
Wiens believes he saved the header
and the cab by turning the combine
into the wind, keeping the fire at the
back of the vehicle.
Going back the next day to douse
the smouldering soybeans still in the
combine hopperвЂ”about 200 bushels or soвЂ”he checked for any cause,
and determined it could be many
different things: wiring, dust, chaff,
a strong dry south wind, or even a
burst fuel line.
A neighbour finished up the nine
acres of soybeans left after their fire.
Once they know what the insur-
ance pays out for their loss, the Wiens
have all winter to decide and browse
whether to buy a used one or a new
one.
вЂњWe really liked this combine,вЂќ
Wiens laments, вЂњthe first newer combine we bought in some time.вЂќ
Looking back at the season overall, though, Wiens says their 2014 total crop turned out average to a little
above average, but a little bit lower
quality in the cereals.
Except for marketing a good chunk
of their section of yellow peasвЂ” which
they took off firstвЂ”they have sold very
little of the other crops, he says.
вЂњMost is sitting in the bin and prices
are not looking too good to be sell- submitted photo

Do whatвЂ™s right, right now
T
harry siemens
he M-COOL debate
continues, even
after 12 year, to go
along the lines of
protectionism by
some groups in the United States and fair trade
for the rest of us.
>
Chuck Connor, National Council
of Farmer Cooperatives CEO and
former deputy secretary of agriculture in the U.S., comments on the
so-called вЂњconsumerвЂ™s right to knowвЂќ
aspect of the debate.
But first, let me explain what that
is. Some who favour M-COOL in the
U.S. claim consumers want and have
the right to know where their food
comes from. Therefore, country of
origin labelling.
However, when people do surveys of consumers in the U.S., many
show that most shoppers still shop
based on price, not the origin of that
product. Many also shop at the same
place time and again, and therefore
trust the establishment they buy
from to make sure the product is
good and wholesome.
There are some who absolutely
have no problem buying good product at an good price, no matter where
that product comes from. Others
have preferences of where they buy,
what they buy, and who and where
they make that product.
That is all fair game.
Mr. Connor has, as I have, followed
this issue since the early 2000s.
вЂњIt didnвЂ™t start out as a consumer `right to knowвЂ™ movement. It
was started by groups who didnвЂ™t
want competition from Mexico and
Canada, plain and simple,вЂќ he says.
вЂњThere are lots of COOL rules by
many countries that are legal and
compliant. The segregation and other requirements in this rule are not.вЂќ
Wow. That makes it clear, and in no
uncertain terms.
John Bode, Corn Refiners Association CEO, says livestock groups
that are a part of the COOL Reform
Coalition, like National CattlemenвЂ™s
Beef Association and the National
Pork Producers Council, want the
U.S. to repeal the law.
Other members just want to see
the U.S. honour its trade obligations
by Congress, setting aside whatever
portions of the regulations or law
make it noncompliant. It is a disaster to wait for retaliation and export
damage, he said.
Meaning the retaliation that Canadian Ag Minister Ritz and Trade
Minister Fast are working on to help
convince the Americans making MCOOL right is in everyoneвЂ™s best inContinued on page 29

it finished well before camping begins next June.
The project was made possible thank to the support of the community by way of the Quilt Art and

and in-kind donations, and volunteer labour. Over
260 campers attended Rock Lake Camp last season,

What we would give for just
one more time to say,
We love you, one more hug,
one last kiss good-bye.
We thought there would be more time,
That somehow you would always be there,
That you could never die.
We know you are in Heaven,
But we love and miss you,
And our hearts still deeply grieve.
We would give anything to have you,
If but for a moment,
Once again here with us.

OBITUARY
Andrew Loewen
December 9, 1927 вЂ“ October 21, 2014
Andrew Loewen of Winkler, MB, previously from Elm Creek and Altona, passed away peacefully at Boundary Trails Health Centre on Tuesday, October 21, 2014 at the age of 86 years and
10 months.
He was predeceased by his wife Roselyn in May of 1990, as well as by his parents, sisters
Elizabeth and Helen, and brother Jake.
He is survived by four daughters and two sons; daughters Sharon, Shirley, Vera, and Vivian; and
sons Ronald and Mark and their families. He is also survived by his brother Bill; and one sister
Marie, and their families.
Andrew was born on December 9, 1927 in the RM of Montcalm to Wilhelm and Maria Loewen.
He was raised on the family farm and attended school till Grade 8. Hard work and Christian values were taught by his parents and at the age of 14, dad accepted Jesus Christ as his personal
Lord and Saviour. He was baptized upon the confession of his faith and accepted as a member
of the Sommerfeld Mennonite Church in Sommerfeld, at the age of 17.
Dad worked on the family farm until the age of 23, when he married a lovely lady called Roselyn
Heinrichs. They moved to Winnipeg to begin their life together; then returned to the Altona area
in 1956 when his dad became ill and passed away. They purchased the family farm and lived
there for 10 years, then moved to a larger farm at Elm Creek with their family of five children,
where their sixth child was born.
Dad upgraded his education and worked off the farm for many years to support his family. In
1990, after a two year struggle with cancer, mom passed away and dad moved to Winkler. He
continued to work for several years until retirement.
Dad enjoyed spending his time gardening, keeping his yard, and having daily visits and coffee time with his friends at the Winkler Senior Centre. He became ill over the last year, and was
brought to the hospital may times until he was admitted in August of 2014. Dad went to his eternal reward on October 21, 2014 at 7:15 pm.
The family wishes to thank the medical staff at BTHC for their care and compassion for dad in
his brief stay there.
A private family service with burial at the Altona Cemetery has taken place.
Memorial donations may be made to Boundary Trails Health Centre Palliative Care.

OBITUARY
Sarah Hildebrand (nee Krahn)
1925 вЂ“ 2014
Suddenly on Thursday, October 16th at Boundary Trails Health
Centre, Sarah Hildebrand, aged 89 years, went home to be with
her Lord and Saviour.
She was born January 31, 1925, in Schoeneberg, Ekaterinoslava, Russia and immigrated to Canada with her parents, Jacob D
and Maria Krahn and family in December of the same year. They
first settled in Plum Coulee for a few months and then moved to a
farm south of Winkler (Osterwick), where her childhood years were
spent. Here she grew up with two sisters and two brothers. Mother
received Christ as her personal Saviour in July of 1940 and was
baptized in May of 1945, by Bishop David Schultz and accepted
into the Winkler Bergthaler Church. On August 7th, 1949, she was
united in marriage to Jake Hildebrand of Winkler, where they resided for their first few years together. In the spring of 1954, Sarah and Jake moved to a farm at Manitou, where they lived for 35
years. Here they were members of the Manitou Mennonite Brethren Church. In October of 1988,
Sarah and Jake moved to Morden and in March of 1989, transferred their membership to the
Morden Bergthaler Church. In 1999, Sarah and Jake celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary
with their immediate family. Mom was married to Dad for 56 years and she really missed him
after he was gone. She often told us how she missed him more and more as time went on. One
of MomвЂ™s most important attributes was her faith and her commitment to pray for all her children,
grandchildren and great-grandchildren continuously. Her desire was to see each and every one
of them live in a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Everyone knew that Grandma
loved them and cared for them deeply. She always kept in contact with all of her grandchildren
and great-grandchildren. Whenever she called on the phone, she was always ready to talk to
them. Her selfless love was felt by all of us.
Left to cherish her love and memory are her sons Ray (Nettie) Hildebrand, Rick (Esther) Hildebrand; a special niece Darlene (Vern) Bergen; grandchildren Charlene (Lee) Redpath, Candace
(Steve) Bryce, Joanna (Justin) Roszmann, Ryan (Jessika) Hildebrand; great-grandchildren Sarah,
Emily and Aaron Bryce. Sarah was predeceased by her husband, Jake in 2005; brother, David
Krahn; sister, Mary Baerg; parents, Jacob D and Maria Krahn; sister, Annie Pauls and brother,
Jake Krahn.
We, the family, mourn at the passing of one who was greatly loved and will be sorely missed,
but we sorrow not as those who have no hope. Our hope is in God, our Heavenly Father. Until we
meet again. Love you, Mom.
Funeral service was held on Thursday, October 23rd, 2014 at 2:00 PM at the Morden Mennonite
Church with Rev. Rick Neufeld and Rev. Michael Pahl officiating. Interment followed at Chapel
Cemetery.
We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all those people who have helped Mom so
much in getting around these last few years. Thank you for taking her to medical appointments,
shopping and even going out for coffee/meals. Thank you for all the kindness extended to our
family during the loss of our Mother, Grandmother and Great Grandmother, Sarah Hildebrand.
Special thanks to pastors Rick Neufeld and Michael Pahl for officiating, the ushers, pianist, special music and Joey Grenier and staff of Wiebe Funeral Home. We would also like to thank the
ladies at Vista Terrace for their quick response calling 911, the ambulance attendants as well
as all the phone calls, visits, food, flowers, cards and donations. Your thoughts and prayers are
greatly appreciated.
