nless you have not


left your windowless
house in the last few days,
you have probably noticed
that the nice, long autumn
we had is over. Jack Frost
has appeared with a vengeance, and it seems that
he is here to stay for the remainder of the season! On
the bright side of things,
the new snow makes for
a beautiful landscape of
glistening trees in a winter
wonderland.
On the not-so-bright
side of things, it is cold,
and driving conditions
have been terrible. Many
of the highways in the area
have been categorized as
partly covered, covered, or
have officially been closed
since the storm blew in
on Monday. Highway #10
and Highway #16 were
partly covered for most
of the storm period, and
Highway #1 was closed all
day Tuesday. Schools have
been closed and school
bus service cancelled
meaning snow days at
home for students.
Over the course of
our short winter, there
have already been a number of vehicles that have
slid off the road into the
ditch. This can be both
expensive and dangerous,
not to mention terrifying.
One collision, between
Neepawa and Minnedosa
on Highway #16 Monday
afternoon, sent two local

does provide certain tips
to drivers this winter. It is
a good idea to check the
weather conditions before

Surplus Fire Truck Sold And Arena Equipment Breakdown


By DARRYL HOLYK

ll councillors were
in attendance for the
regular meeting of Town
Council on the evening of
Tuesday, December 6th.
Council agreed to sell
a surplus fire truck, the
1990 Ford F800 pumper
to the RM of Lakeshore for
$25,000. Their bid was the
highest of three received
for the unit.
Councillor Taylor updated council on recent
recreation
happenings.
The main issue was the
needed replacement of
the main compressor for
the aging and worn out
ice plant at the arena. Installed in the late 1960s,
this important piece of
equipment has malfunctioned causing a number of hockey games and
programs to be cancelled.
A new compressor has
been ordered and will be
installed once it arrives
to get the arena back up
and running at full schedule. The estimated price
tag for this replacement
is in the neighbourhood
of $25,000 and $30,000.
Unfortunately, this unit
is not something that will

be able to be relocated to
a new MREC facility in
the future as the new ice
plants feature different
components. Previously,
two applications had been
made for funding in hopes
of buying a new complete
ice plant which could be
used at the old arena for
now and then moved to
the new facility when it is
constructed. Unfortunately, both funding applications were turned down.
Council approved the
request to waive the rental
fee for Minnedosa Community Conference Centre for the 2016 Christmas
Dinner being hosted on
Sunday, December 25th.
Councillor Luker reported on a recent tourism meeting. Discussions
were held regarding the
2017 tourist season. The
group hopes to continue
the student community
ambassador program to
distribute community information to visitors next
summer. They are also
looking at the possibility
of developing some sort
of handout for visitors
who are in Minnedosa
for sports related events;
games and tournaments.

This handout could contain listings of local businesses such as restaurants


to help inform visitors
where to eat while in the
community. At the tourist area at the former Esso
site, south of Minnedosa,
new flags have been installed. The tourism group
is investigating possible
lighting options for the
site with solar lights being
one of the options. They
also hope to have the large
metal cutout Discover
Minnedosa sign repainted next year so it is more
visible from the highway.
Counillor Luker also
reported that he recently had the good fortune
to present appreciation
plaques to Brenda Hales
and Neil Cameron for
their many years of service with the handivan.
The new Town Public
Works Shop in the Industrial Park recently received
some damage after a nontown company vehicle
hit the building. It is estimated the damage could
amount to $20,000 but it
is assumed, the insurance
of the company responsible will cover the cost of
the required repairs to the

new building.
A concerned resident
recently informed Mayor
Orr that the lights on the
towers on Minnedosas
north hills are no longer working. With STARS
air ambulance and other
small planes flying our
skies, this is a concern
which needs to be addressed at once. Council
requested Town administration to contact the
companies
responsible
and urge them to have this
issue remedied immediately.
Councillor Skatch reported on a recent Community
Development
Corporation meeting at
which both the CDC and
Tourism budgets for 2017
were passed. She was
happy to report that the
Towns contribution to the
Tourism committee will
not see any increase next
year and remain the same
as 2016 at $25,000. There
was a slight increase of approximately $1,000 for the
Towns contribution to the
CDC for 2017.
Councillor Saler updated Council on recent
happenings with the local Fire Department. They

The Golf Course will
be changing booking

course has used a program
from the United States. As
the company is now focussing more on larger
courses, the Minnedosa
course will use the Canadian booking system, TeeOn.

Winter Roads
Continued from Page 1
It is a good idea to have winter or all season tires
and windshield fluid. Make sure all windows, mirrors,
and lights on your vehicle are cleared of snow and ice.
Allow extra time for travelling. When the roads are as
bad as they have been this last week, traffic is likely to
move more slowly to avoid sliding off the road. Remember that it also takes longer to stop, so to start slowing
down sooner, so that you dont slide through intersections. It is also a good idea to keep a winter car kit in
your car. This may include, but is not limited to some
non-perishable snacks, a blanket, a candle and a whistle. Be sure to keep safe this winter, and be careful when
driving on our roads. Be mindful of the conditions, and
if they worsen, turn back.

Pets Are #1
At Minnagro

Reno Underway At Townview Manor


By HILLARY CAMPBELL

Photo by Hillary Campbell

By HILLARY CAMPBELL

et Promotion Day is a one day event that was held


at Minnagro on November 30th. The promotion included $5.00 off of the Nutrisource dog food bags, and
$2.00 vouchers. It also included free samples, door
prizes, and treats for your furry friends. Minnagro had
numerous baskets fi lled with prizes that both pet and
owner alike would enjoy.
The promotion is for dogs, cats, and horses, and
one of the goals was to promote Nutrisource dog food.
According to Kim Parish, who works at Minnagro and
organized the event, the one tip she has for pet owners
over the winter months is to feed your pets good food.
She commented that, if you feed good food, the dogs
will keep warm and theyll be healthy. The quality of
food makes all the diff erence when considering the
quality of your pets life.
The event was put on in conjunction with Moonlight
Madness. Parish noted that this was the first year that
Minnagro has done the Pet Promotion Day in conjunction with Moonlight Madness, but that they have run
the Pet Promotion Day in previous years. The reason
they put it on this year, according to Parish, is because,
people in Minnedosa dont realize that we sell so much
pet stuff; collars, leads, toys, blankets, and everything. It
was just a good way of getting people to know.
The day was full of customers coming and going in
the store, and saw some busy times throughout the day.
For those in the community who are looking to buy
Christmas gifts for their furry companions, keep Minnagro in mind. Minnagro sells a variety of healthy options
for your animals. Your pets will thank you, and so will
your bottom line.

seen the signs that have
gone up around Townview
Manor. PCL Construction
has won the tender for the
construction job for the
building. The entire premises have been fenced off,
and construction is set to
begin.
Mayor Ray Orr spoke
to Chad Keuler, Manager
of Special Projects recently. Per Mayor Orr, Keuler
is currently looking for
people from the Minnedosa area who will be able
to help PCL with the project. He needs subcontractors to complete various
tasks. Orr has sent Keuler
in the direction of some
locals who have the skills
required. The Mayor also
noted that he provided
Keuler with the list of businesses that is put out each
year by the Minnedosa
Chamber of Commerce.
As far as Mayor Orr is
aware, Keuler has begun
to contact locals to discuss
the various opportunities
he has available.
A second issue that
Keuler needed assistance
with is finding housing for
his crew. PCL will require
a place for its workers to
live while they are completing the project. Mayor

the housing complex undergoes a major renovation.
Orr noted that he pointed
Keuler in a few directions to help him out, but,
where he goes from there
is up to him.
When speaking with
Keuler, Mayor Orr found
out that they were planning to start working in
early December, so it is
likely that, weather permitting, the work will have begun. The plan, from what
Mayor Orr understands,

is to be gutting the entire


inside of the building, right
out to the walls. Once this
has happened, they will
build 43 new suites in a
space that originally held
50. The new suites will be
larger and more modern
for the people moving in.
A building like Townview Manor is important
for Minnedosa. Mayor Orr
commented that, it is affordable living, and peo-

Gimme A Paper

Why Wait To Rally?

A Publishers Dilemma
Editors Note: This piece was recently published in the Souris
Plaindealer. For years, this piece of writing hung on the wall of the
office of a newspaper publisher in nei ghbouring Saskatchewan. You
may read it thinking some of the statements sound ridiculous, but
in reality, each and every statement bears some truth. Anyone who
has been in the newspaper business can most likely relate, I know I
certainly can.

m going to give $1 to the newspaper staff. Divide it up any way


you wish.
Now, for that $1 I am going to give you, I want you to publish a
newspaper that will contain more reading matter than the current
best-selling novel.
I want all the news and I want every bit of it to be fresh. I want
pictures of all the local accidents, fires, meeting and events that I am
interested in; and I dont want to see anything that will offend me
either.
I expect you to tell me who dies, who was born, who was divorced and who was married in the last week, including the last 24
hours.
I want to know what those guys in government are doing with my
tax money. I want to understand all of the important events, plans
and results, but I dont want to waste more than a couple of minutes
on your story.
I want to read just as much about Liberals, Conservatives and
new Democrats.
Dont tell me you cant do it. Th ats what I invested my $1 for. Th e
only reason you wont do it is because you have no competition.
I want all the supermarket prices, a list of people with used cars,
the movie and TV times and the closing stock market prices.
If I break the law, I dont want you to print my name in the paper,
and I have a friend who is in trouble too, so you can leave that out as
well.
Another thing, I am sick of misspelled words in your paper. For
$1 you ought to do better!
By the way, I eat promptly at 5 p.m. so my paper better be in my
mailbox at 3 p.m.
When I meet you on the street, I expect you to tell me all the inside dope.
I expect you to serve as publicity chairman for every committee
in town, too.
If I call the paper and ask how many kids Al Capone had or in
what round Demsey knocked out Tunny (or was it the other way?), I
expect you to know and tell me.
Next week, I am going to start my own business and I want a
news item about it. A picture would be even better.
Advertising? No, if you can run a story and the picture, I wont
need any advertising.
But, if you straighten up I will give you another $1 for next weeks
paper.

Minor Hockey Reports


Chancellors
By LAURA GOOD

he Chancellors had a quiet week in


hockey this past week with only one
game. They were on the road to Deloraine to
play the Hartney/Deloraine Colts. The Colts
were first on the board with a goal just five
minutes into the contest. The Chancellors
were quick to respond with a goal by Ryan
McLenehan with assists to Braeden Good
and Lucas Beatty. Colts netted another goal
with seconds left in the period to regain the
lead after the first period 2-1. The Chancellors found themselves in the penalty box a
number of times and the Colts were able to
capitalize on this and scored two power-play
goals to win the game with a fi nal score of
4-1. Joe Lane played an outstanding game

Pee Wee 11s


By JORDAN FLEURY

he Pee Wee 11s management group


a.k.a. hockey moms must be recognized for a successful home tournament last
weekend. Our fi ne young players finished
Saturday 1-1, losing 8-2 to Grand Plains and
bouncing back to fi nish the day with a 4-1
victory over MacGregor.
Minnedosa started Sunday action paired
up with the undefeated Dauphin Kings

where an 8-2 loss bumped them to a third


round final versus Neepawa in what turned
up to be one of the more exciting matchups
concluding the weekend. Minnedosa held a
lead through to midway of the third period
when Neepawa tied it up and jumped ahead
by two. With only two minutes remaining
Minnedosa pulled goalie on a power play
and applied some pressure with success but
Neepawa was able to hold on to a one goal
game finishing with a score of 7-6.
Hats off
to those who travelled to our
event despite some questionable road
conditions and weather. Players, parents,
coaches, rink and canteen staff and volunteers all made hard work pay off! Congratulations Dauphin Pee Wee Kings for the big
win. Minnedosa Pee Wee 11s are on home
ice tomorrow at 3:30 p.m. versus Guild Insurance penguins.

he RCMP has reported a number of accidents near Minnedosa this


week. On Monday alone
there were two accidents
between Minnedosa and
Neepawa.
Acting Staff
Sargeant Mark Morehouse
said that the RCMP received one of the calls at
2:48 p.m. on Monday afternoon, and went to the
scene.
The fi rst accident occurred when one vehicle
went by another and sent
up enough snow to cause
a white out for another
vehicle, who could not see
ahead of them as a result.
According to Morehouse,
it was another vehicle that
came by all of them, and
kept on going but kicked
up enough snow, and it
was a whiteout. As a result of the white out, one
of the vehicles crossed the
centre line, and struck the
semi. Fortunately, in this
accident, there were no serious injuries. Morehouse
noted that there was some
bruising but, nothing that

was going to put anybody


in the hospital overnight,
or anything like that. The
highway was not closed as
a result of this accident, except for the short period of
time when they towed the
vehicles off of the highway.
Another accident occurred on Monday which
was more serious. This accident also occurred near
Neepawa, and a young lady
from Minnedosa was taken
to the hospital in Neepawa,
where she remains currently (Wednesday morning). The other young lady,
also from Minnedosa, was
taken to the Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg,
and has more serious injuries. Th e accident occurred due to the poor road
conditions. One vehicle
was slowing down for the
vehicle ahead of her when
her car started to fishtail,
and swung in front of an
oncoming half-ton truck
coming in the other direction. As a result, there was
a head-on collision. Morehouse commented of the
woman at HSC in Winnipeg that, we are checking
on her every day.
A third incident that
Morehouse told The Tribune about was on High-

way #5, where a transport


got whited-out, and went
off the road, into the ditch.
Th is accident happened
on Monday as well, and
fortunately, only involved
the one transport truck.
However, due to the poor
road conditions, Morehouse said that, we cant
get that out until the storm
subsides, when it is safe to
upright it and pull it back
onto the highway without
endangering anybody else.
Morehouse told
The
Tribune that he suggests
that if people can stay off
the road, they should. He
said that, if they think it is
bad, and they have to call
for conditions, then they
shouldnt be on the road.
With the driving conditions being as bad as they
are, if people are able to
avoid driving, they should.
He added that there is a
lot of black ice and people
should, drive in daylight
hours because once it gets
dark, it changes the whole
spectrum of the roads, especially with the blowing
winds coming across the
roads, it makes it really hard
to see anything at that time.
For anyone who must drive
when conditions are poor,
be safe!

There is not a single

Whether it is the middle of

Following the presen-

One of the topics was
ALUS and the fact that the
program has now enrolled
1,650 acres in total at the
end of 2016. Cuvelier said
that, delivering the program has included tours
to educate provincial staff,
funders, ALUS Canada

shelterbelts,
abandoned well sealing,

Quick and Easy Homemade Air Fresheners


Dear Reena,
I have pens that
use refi lls; the last two
worked for a while and
then stopped working.
Th e store clerk suggested warming them; they
worked briefl y and then
stopped. Is there anything
else that I can do? Refills
arent cheap! Dawn
Dear Dawn,
I agree that refi lls are
not cheap. Since there
are thousands of different
types of pens and refills,
your best bet is to contact
the manufacturer of the
pen instead of talking with
the salesperson. Warming
the pen tip with a candle
flame is typically the easiest way to get ink flowing
but does not last. This is
also risky as it could damage the pen tip. If the manufacturer does not give
you a satisfactory answer,
you may want to consider
changing pen brands.

OBITUARIES
EILEEN ANNE FIARCHUK
JUNE 10TH, 1949
OCTOBER 25TH, 2016
Eileen passed away at the
Erickson Palliative Care Centre
in Erickson after a short battle
with cancer.
Eileen was born to Frank
and Laura Nagorski. She attended grade school at Empire. On November 19th, 1966
she married Steve Fiarchuk at
the Sacred Heart Roman Catholic
Church
in
Elphinstone.
She
worked hard on the farm and
after the boys were in school she went to
work for the summer months at Clear Lake where she worked
for 16 years. In 1998, Steve and Eileen moved to Erickson. She
then worked at the Sandy Lake Personal Care Home until poor
health forced her to retire.
Eileen was predeceased by her parents Frank and Laura, sister Margaret, brothers: Mervin, Bert and Clarence. She is survived by husband Steve, sons Terry (Brenda), and Kevin (Shelley). Also surviving are four brothers: Leonard, Wilfred, Jim
and Ron; two sisters: Hazel (David Johnson) and Evelyn Sweeting. There are also many nieces and nephews.

PAUL KOROSCIL
JUNE 21ST, 1917
NOVEMBER 2ND, 2016
It is with deep sadness that the
family announces the passing of
a loving husband, father, grandfather, godfather, brother, uncle
and friend. Paul was born to
Mike and Tekla Koroscil, one of
12 children. He attended Morse
School and later Martindale up
to grade xix.
At a young age he worked
at various places until he was
called to the Canadian Military at
the age of 23. He served with the
Princess Patricia Canadian Light Infantry
for three years and was discharged at the age of 26. He then
came back to help at his fathers farm. In 1949 Dad purchased
land in the Strathclair Municipality along the shores of beautiful Wolf Lake.
In 1951 he married Eunice, the love of his life and together
they raised four sons. They were inseparable and did everything hand in hand; gardening, cooking and combining.
In 1954 Dad built a house and in 1964 a barn. He enjoyed
farming very much; was mechanically inclined, and able to repair a variety of equipment from small appliances to tractors.
He was a long time member of the Holy Ghost Ukrainian
Catholic Church, where he attended Sunday mass, was married
and where we said our final farewell at his funeral service.
Dad was happiest when surrounded by his children and
grandchildren.
In 1976 he built a new house for retirement in Sandy Lake,
and took up residency.
In 1980, while continuing to help his sons on the farm during
the summer months and enjoying his passion for fishing during the winter months.
Dad lived his life to the fullest, believing in his family; his
strong work ethics laying a path for the next generation to follow. He was a true friend to many, much loved and respected
and devoted his whole life to the well being of his family.
Paul was predeceased by his parents, Mike and Tekla, brothers Bill, Stanley (Helen), Leven (Laurie), sisters Jessie (John),
Elsie (Paul), Agnes (Peter), sisters-in-law Margaret and Jessie
and brother-in-law Paul.
Left to cherish his memory are his wife of 65 years, Eunice,
sons Glenn (Maureen), Perry (Cathy), Dale, and Edwin (Liz),
grandchildren; Michael, Ryan, Rachel and Leanne, godchildren Don, Louella, Louise, Marcia and Greg, brothers Donald,
Martin, Metro (Francis) and Nick (Helen) and sister Helen, as
well as many nieces and nephews.
He will be greatly missed but his memory and legacy will
continue in our hearts.

IN MEMORIAM
JASON EDWARD KELLY
JANUARY 30TH, 1974
NOVEMBER 30TH, 2016

It is with grief stricken hearts


that we announce the sudden
passing of Jason Edward Kelly.
Jason is pre-deceased by
his Grandparents Howard and
Doris Kelly and Grandfather Victor Minty. He is survived by his
Grandmother Joyce Minty, Father Geordie Kelly, Mother Eileen
Hunter and Husband Jack Hunter
(and family), Sister Cori Wilman
(husband Mike Wilman), Brother Brad
Kelly (wife Jennifer Kelly), his nephews
Mason Kelly, Sam and Jacob Wilman, and by his beloved English Black Lab Brutus, and two cats Chavez and Honey.
Jason was born in Minnedosa. His daredevil years started
early and carried on throughout his life. Jays adventures never
ended. He always seemed to find a way to get hurt during his
mishaps. BMX jumping, leaping off the roof into snow piles,
snowboarding behind vehicles, and flying down hills on his
bike, with pedals cycling faster than his feet could handle, led
to many stitches, broken bones and the reputation as the toughest five year old the doctors had ever met. Jay was never afraid
to go after what he wanted.
Seldom did Jay ever consider you a friend, you were always
considered family. Throughout his travels and work, many lifelong friendships were established. Jays family was a huge part
of his life. Family was always first.
Jay loved playing hockey as a child. He received countless
digger awards for his hard work on the ice. While his love of
hockey did not continue as a player in his adult years, Jason did
enjoy watching his nephews play at the rink, the Jets games on
TV, and was known to tirelessly shoot tennis balls in the driveway with his loyal companion Brutus.
Jason lived for the outdoors. He enjoyed biking (12 months
of the year,) daily walks with Brutus and his canine companions, exploring the family farm for abandoned treasures, native
plants and natural ingredients to add to his latest culinary creation, taking photographs of the beauty around him and soaking in the fresh air as he shoveled, mowed, landscaped, planted
and cared for numerous properties, including his own, in the
community.
Jasons artistic passions are embodied in the greenhouse
and catering business that Jason ran. From the art on the walls,
to the hand crafted bird and butterfly houses, Jasons creativity adorns every inch of the magical walkways and flower beds
of Aditis Touch. No one could turn junk into priceless art like
Jason.
The food that he prepared was carefully crafted using many
home grown herbs, vegetables and fruits. His excitement for
growing cross cultivars was contagious, and he often prided
himself on his accomplishments by offering a hand-picked
sample of the latest successful yield to visitors with a huge
smile. He learned many techniques while cooking at restaurants in Mexico, and Sun Peaks and Silver Star in B.C.
Jay was a young man with an old soul. He had a love of all
things vintage. He always followed his heart, never choosing
to conform. His calm demeanor, happy disposition, gentle
kindness and wealth of knowledge and wisdom will be greatly
missed by all who knew him.
A celebration of life was held on Tuesday, December 6th at
11:00 a.m. at the Onanole Rec Centre. Donations are graciously
accepted to put towards the upkeep of Jays greenhouse his
legacy. Donations can be sent c/o Box 154, Onanole MB, R0J
1N0.
Raes Funeral Service of Erickson was in care of the arrangements.

had a very large Muslim

mass media, and we are
hearing about these terrorist attacks, then it starts
to get that ingrained in

it is important to start a

Meghan Miller Cronkrite,originally from Justice, has released a film


about the battle against Islamophobia in peoples every day lives.
to start the conversation
in our communities, the
things that would come
up online, its really scary
the amount of hate, and
these messages, videos
and posts about this specifi c group of people, its
disturbing, its tragic. She
noted that with the high
number of Muslim people
in the world, it is unfair to
categorize them all under
the same umbrella, there
is a need to challenge that,
and show people another
side, a real side, and a

personal connection to
someone in that community, to realize that Muslim people are just like
anyone else.
Something that Miller
Cronkrite found interesting after the release of her
fi lm is the parallels that
are often made between
the Muslim community
today and other minority
groups in our communities in the past. She cited
specifi c reference to Indigenous people and the
LGBTTQ community. She

mentioned that, we really


divide ourselves, and that
division leads to fear, and
you cut yourself off from
who is different, and there
is a need to start a conversation about the people
who are behind that label
or appearance and get to
know their story. She also
pointed out the power of
social media, and the ability of people to voice their
opinions, the world is a
very diverse place, and the
internet is a window into
that. She is pleased with
the reaction to her film,
concluding that, it has
been really successful.
