F
or the second time in
less than two weeks, a
Shock Trauma Air Rescue
Society (STARS) air am-
bulance helicopter was in
Minnedosa late Sunday
afternoon, causing quite
a stir for locals curious as
to what was happening. A
spokesperson for Manito-
ba Health confrmed that
the patient transported
to Winnipeg by STARS
was from out-of-town and
had arrived at Minnedosa
Hospital by ground ambu-
lance from another health
care facility.
Te bright red STARS
helicopter landed west of
the local hospital shortly
after 5 p.m. and was on the
ground for some time be-
fore the patient was loaded
through the helicopters
rear doors. In preparation
for STARS arrival, local
RCMP and EMS closed a
portion of 1st Street S.W. in
front of the hospital.
In April, the Prov-
ince of Manitoba signed
a service agreement with
STARS to provide emer-
gency response if needed
during the severe spring
food. As a result of this
agreement, the helicopter
has also been available
to assist in other medical
transportation incidents
which beneft from air
ambulance service, such
as Sundays incident and
the May 24th incident in
which STARS was used to
transport a woman criti-
cally injured in a car acci-
dent to Winnipeg.
STARS is a charita-
ble non-proft organiza-
tion based out of Alberta.
Started in 1985, STARS
celebrated its 25th anni-
versary last year. Its feet
includes fve Eurocopter
BK-117s with bases located
in Calgary, Edmonton and
Grand Prairie. Te heli-
copters measure 13 metres
in length and feature twin
727 hp engines. Normal
cruise speed of the STARS
air ambulance is 240 km/
hr but can reach a maxi-
mum speed of 280 km/
hr in extreme emergency
situations.
Since 1985, STARS
has fown over 20,000
missions, including 1,453
missions in 2010. Patient
transports by STARS in
Manitoba to date have
included a heart attack,
strokes, trauma incidents
and urgent pediatric cases.

D
uring its Annual Gen-
eral Meeting Monday
evening, June 6th, nine
community members
met at TCS to discuss the
future of Healthy Active
Minnedosa (HAM). T e
emergency meeting was
called due to changing
program criteria within the
government and the fact
that these changes must
be made quickly if HAM is
to retain its government-
funded status.
To begin the meeting,
co-chairwoman, Jackie
Nylen, provided a brief
history of HAM, which
began as a fve-year pilot
program through Chronic
Disease Prevention Initia-
tive (CDPI). T e ARHA
had invited anyone in the
community with a vest-
ed interest in preventing
chronic disease to attend
a preliminary meeting and
this meeting was attended
by 20-30 community mem-
bers. Te result was that
Minnedosa would be the
headquarters of the pro-
gram and the board would
advertise for a facilitator.
Mandated by CDPI
to address activity levels,
nutrition levels, and to-
bacco reduction, HAM
has addressed all these
areas through their con-
tinued programs. Te f rst
initiative for HAM was
the healthy canteen at
TCS. Te thought was we
would work from a captive
audience, the kids were
already there, and wed
of er them healthy food,
Nylen explained. Funded
primarily through grants
and the ARHA, HAM has
partnered with many dif-
ferent community groups
over the years including
the TCS Parent Advisory
Council (PAC). While sev-
eral of the original board
members were teachers
and meetings take place
at TCS, HAM board mem-
bers want to stress that it is
not a school or TCS group,
but a group aimed at meet-
ing the needs of the en-
tire community. Indeed,
HAM has helped several
residents in all age groups
(children, teens, adults
and seniors) and the pro-
grams have been 90% suc-
cessful.
Board members re-
cently received a letter
from Joceyln Dowden, the
ARHA liaison for CDPI,
informing the group that
HAMs fve-year program
has reached its end and
if the group chooses to
continue being funded by
the government it must
review and meet specifc
criteria of the new national
program called Healthy
Together Now (although
the group would prob-
ably continue operation as
HAM). With this program,
HAM would be required to
address four areas: tobac-
co reduction and staying
tobacco free, active life-
styles, healthy eating and
mental well-being.
T e dilemma fac-
ing board members and
concerned citizens now
is meeting the new crite-
ria and fguring out what
programs HAM can con-
tinue to ofer on a reduced
budget of $5,000 for three
years. Te fnal decision
must be made and the
proper documents submit-
ted no later than June 24th;
putting HAM board mem-
bers in a tight crunch.
A review of programs
ofered over the last year,
including the Active Teen
Sponsorship, After School
Munchies, Grocery Store
Tour, Bike Safety Rodeo,
Blue Light Project, and
Skating Oval followed,
along with discussion of
regarding which programs
were considered most im-
portant to our community.
We did decide that
there was defnitely in-
terest in carrying on, but
we will be downsizing to
about half of what weve
done in the last couple
of years, stated HAM Fa-
cilitator, Kathy Tomlinson.
Te group must obtain
more support from the
community. Tis support
would come in the form
of brief letters from willing
partners and community
commitments to in-kind
or other contributions to
the projects. T ese let-
ters must be submitted by
June 24th. If we cannot
acquire these commit-
ments by this date we will
not receive funding and
we will be unable to con-
tinue, Tomlinson said.
Tese changes have come
to us with very little notice
and have caught us a little
of guard. However, we do
have some ideas as to how
to approach this and are
hopeful. In the past we
have received many in-
kind contributions from
the community; its just a
matter of getting them to
match what is required
for the applications. Te
HAM board would like to
stress that it is open to any
new members, partners or
contributions and would
value any and all support
from residents of all ages.

s I drove down Main Street Sunday morning and
noticed the 12 new large plant containers all tipped
over, a small part of me hoped that a huge, strong gust
of wind had been the culprit, but I knew better. Tis
was another intentional act of mischief carried out by
some extremely small-minded people who had noth-
ing better to do.
While many in our community continue to say
they would like to see more fowers and plants to beau-
tify the community during the summer months, there
also appears to be someone or a group of people who
seem to have something against plants and community
beautifcation. Sadly, this is not the frst time that anti-
beautifcation bandits have been active in Minnedosa.
A number of years ago, the heavy concrete Main Street
planters were tipped over just hours before Commu-
nities in Bloom judges were to arrive to evaluate our
community for competition. Over the past few years,
a number of the community planters and private resi-
dences have been targeted and had fowers and plants
removed, destroyed or stolen. Tis act has also just re-
cently reared its ugly head when someone felt the need
to pull and remove some of the freshly planted daisies
from a planter near Tanners Park.
Residents of our community take time out of their
busy personal schedules to voluntarily plant fowers,
which have to be purchased and can be a sizable ex-
pense, so that the community looks great for residents
and visitors throughout the summer. Tese same
volunteers were thankfully not beaten down by this
mischief and stepped right back up to the plate giving
even more of their precious time Sunday afternoon to
clean up the childish mess left behind from someones
prank. Additional volunteers pitched in to help right
this wrong and used tires were generously donated by
the local tire shop to provide sturdy bottoms to these
new planters. A huge thank you is most deserving to
these volunteers and community minded citizens who
take great pride in trying to beautify our town. Please
know that your eforts are truly appreciated by many.
To the person(s) responsible for this act of stu-
pidity against our hard-working volunteers and com-
munity beautifcation, it would be interesting to hear
your reason for turning over these planters and pulling
fowers from others. Do you get some warped satisfac-
tion from committing such mischief and creating more
work and added expense for others? I would encour-
age you to try using your free time and energy to do
something good for the community. When you volun-
teer in a positive way you feel a sense of citizenship and
pride that is not able to be described in words. One
fnal word to those who are responsible, I hope the se-
curity cameras at the Credit Union captured some nice
clear images of you in action!
Although this past weekends act of mischief has
been reported to police, if anyone has any information
or know who may be responsible, please contact the
RCMP at (204) 867-2916.
Parade deadline...
If you have not yet registered but are planning to have
a foat, vehicle, animal or other attraction in the July 9th
parade, please let the organizers know so that a spot in the
line-up can be saved for you. Entries are currently being
accepted at Minnedosa Credit Union, Box 459, Minnedo-
sa, MB, R0J 1E0. Te deadline for parade entries is Turs-

Run 4NF...
Te sixth annual Run 4NF takes place tomorrow (Sat-
urday) starting at the beach pavilion on the east shore of
Minnedosa Lake. Te 5km and 10 km runs are scheduled
to begin at 10 a.m. Tis run usually raises about $5,000 in
pledges and donations. Te money raised is used to cover
expenses related to the continuation of the Manitoba Neu-
rofbromatosis Support Group, MBNF.
Chamber BBQ...
Te Minnedosa Chamber of Commerce will hold its
sixth annual Ag Appreciation BBQ under the big top in
the Heritage Co-op Foodmarket parking lot Wednesday.
Tis event is held in support of a scholarship at MCI for
students pursuing an agriculture career after graduation.
For the frst three years, the Chamber presented two $500
scholarships; this was increased to two $750 scholarships
in 2009. Tis year, due to the continued generous support
of the BBQ, the Chamber will be presenting two $1,000
scholarships bringing the grand total given back to local
students to $8,000.
BISON CONCERNS...
Its great to know that there are citizens in this commu-
nity concerned for the well being of our bison. A concern
about the bison being in the fooded waters of the com-
pound was reported to us Tuesday. We contacted the Town
and it was checked out immediately. Tankfully the bison
were all fne and are quite strong swimmers. Tey are being
monitored and enjoy going for a swim regularly. Tey have
since been moved back into the compound parking lot.

Dear Editor,
T
he year 1997 was the
last time the Canadian
Union of Postal Workers
hit the streets. Fourteen
years ago, we put our jobs,
our homes, our families
and our bodies on the line.
Now, were doing it again,
not only for the people we
work with, but also for the
people who will be work-
ing at Canada Post in the
future.
We are proud to be an
organization of workers
that fghts hard to improve
the working conditions of
its members. As such, we
make no apologies for re-
fusing unreasonable con-
cessions demanded of us
by a proftable company.
While making 1.7 billion in
prof ts for 15 years, Can-
ada Post has kept one of
the lowest standard post-
age rates in the industrial-
ized world. Canada Post
has also contributed $1.2
billion to the federal gov-
ernment in dividends and
income taxes over the last
15 years. Some members
of the public have the mis-
taken idea that their taxes
are paying for our wages.
Te truth is that we do not
cost the public money.
By keeping Canada Post
prof table, our hard work
actually saves the public
money. CUPW has tried
during this round of bar-
gaining to solve the prob-
lems our members face ev-
ery day at work. We want to
fx staf ng problems, route
measurement and forced
overtime problems, deliv-
ery method problems, and
health and safety issues.
We have of ered to ad-
dress Canada Posts con-
cerns with our proposals
but they are only interest-
ed in their own demands
for concessions. Negotia-
tions are supposed to be
about give and take. Postal
workers want to negotiate
but when the other side is
taking instead of talking,
we are forced to use our
legal right to strike in the
hope that when we with-
draw our labour and picket
our workplaces, the pres-
sure will compel Canada
Post to negotiate.
Going on strike is no
joke. Its not a decision we
are making lightly and we
wouldnt be making it at all
if our employer werent so
determined to aggressively
cut labour costs. Weve
told Canada Post there
are alternatives to strip-
ping all workers of their
sick plan and new work-
ers of their wages. Other
postal administrations are
rising to the challenge of
declining mail volumes
instead of stooping to at-
tack their workers. For ex-
ample, theyre using their
networks for services such
as banking. In 2008, 44
countries had post of ces
with banking services that
accounted for more than
20% of the total revenue. A
postal bank existed in this
country from 1867 to1969
as a trusted alternative to
the big commercial banks.
In the wake of the fnancial
crisis, never has such an
alternative been more rel-
evant.
With innovative ideas
like this, Canada Post could
continue to be a proftable,
ef ective corporation that
meets its universal service
obligation and the needs
of the public. It doesnt
have to take the lazy way
out by squeezing its work-
ers instead of improving its
services. Unfortunately, its
choosing to take advantage
of the recession to demand
workers pay for its projec-
tions of future decline in-
stead of working with us
to f nd solutions. Canada
Post may be buying bil-
lions of dollars worth of
new technologies but its
labour relations practices
date back to the days of
disco.
What management is
proposing rolls our wages
and benef ts back to the
twentieth century even
though the cost of living
in the twenty-frst cen-
tury keeps on rising and
it is getting increasingly
dif cult for the national
average income earner
(such as a postal worker)
to make ends meet. You
cant modernize a com-
pany with the regressive
labour standards Canada
Post is proposing. Nor can
you look after your family
with an 18% wage cut. But
thats exactly what the cor-
poration is expecting new
employees to do. Teir in-
sistence on this and oth-
er rollbacks forces us to
strike.
We know that going on
strike takes our fght to the
public even though we are
not fghting the public. As
postal workers who care
deeply about what we do,
its an upsetting prospect
to be facing angry people,
including customers we
have known and served
for years. But we also know
that we have support from
many people who un-
derstand that sometimes
workers have to strike to
fght for an important prin-
ciple like decent jobs.
We feel conf dent that
many people will under-
stand why we have to strike
in order to get Canada Post
to negotiate seriously.
We especially hope that
the young workers whose
wages and benefts we are
struggling to preserve will
honour this fght down the
road and resist future roll-
backs just as fercely as we
do now.

National President and
Chief Negotiator for the

Why we strike
Dear Editor,

T
he Minnedosa Heritage Inc. committee (Station
committee) met last Tuesday and have asked me to
update your readers on the C.P.R. station project. Since
the inception of the committee, we have completed a
new shake/shingle roof, new facia and sof ting. As well,
all new windows have been installed making the exterior
of the building water proof. In addition, the installation
of a de-humidifer has been completed. Last summer,
work began on the Railroad Park located on the north
side of the building on the former Beddome property.
Some initial landscaping was done, the rail maintenance
equipment from the Main Street Park has been relocated
and installed and the park seeded to grass.
Tis summer our plans include replacing the cement
pad on the west side of the building as a future display
area, further grooming of the park area and we expect
work to begin on the fencing along the street as well as
a brick gate. Te brick is matching to the original brick
on the station building and was obtained from Binscarth
when their station was demolished last spring.
Currently the committee has in excess of $33,000
in cash in the bank which consists of monies donated
by station patrons as well as sales of the railroad history
book. Tose funds continue to be used for the various
projects around the exterior of the building and we antic-
ipate that a good portion will be retained for the interior
renovations, once they begin.
Te committee notes that vandalism is once again on
the rise with the three pieces of equipment on display in
the park being moved around the yard as well as a couple
of broken windows. We ask those passing by the property
to keep a vigilant eye out for any vandalism taking place
and report such incidents to the police.
Te committee is always interested in welcoming
new members and anyone wishing to come and lend a
hand on any of our projects or become a member of our
committee is welcome to join. We will keep you updated
from time to time this summer through Te Tribune.

I
n a May 24th meeting to
review the recent reas-
sessment and 2012 tax im-
plications for Minnedosa,
assessors outlined that the
Towns total assessment
increased by 15%. Tis
amount is slightly above
the provincial average of
13% and refects strong
market value increases
for single family residen-
tial properties and farm
properties. Single family
residences have increased
in value 24.5% and farm
properties have increased
19.2%.
Te increase in value
is attributable to strong de-
mand due to economic de-
velopment in the Neepawa
area and province-wide
increases in the value of
farmland, stated MAFRI
Communications Coordi-
nator, Diane Coble-Kend-
all. Residential property
is in short supply due to de-
velopment in the Neepawa
area and farmland increas-
es are refected in sales.
T e 2012 reassess-
ment was updated to re-
fect April 1st, 2010 market
values and was initiated by
provincial legislation that
would see assessments
updated every two years.
Frequent reassessment
that keeps up with real
estate market will mean
assessments are more pre-
dictable and easier to un-
derstand for property own-
ers. Te new assessments
will be used to calculate
2012 property taxes; how-
ever assessment increases
dont necessarily mean tax
increases.
Taxes increase only
when a propertys assess-
ment increases more than
the average within the mu-
nicipality or school divi-
sion. Due to reassessment,
municipal and school tax-
es are increasing on single
family residences by 9%
and on farm properties by
4.4%. Although all other
property classes (apart-
ments, commercial, etc.)
also saw an increase in
assessment, the increase
wasnt as great as for single
family residential and farm
so taxes on these proper-
ties decreased. Ofsetting
these increases, the gov-
ernment also increased
the Education Property
Tax Credit to $800 and
the Farmland School Tax
Rebate to 80% in 2011 so
overall property taxes will
be reduced.

14-year-old Kyle Wa-
hoski was drafted to the
Neepawa Natives last Sun-
day, June 5th after per-
forming well at a hockey
camp in Neepawa last
month. It feels pretty
good, Wahoski exclaimed.
Im pretty excited about
the whole experience.
Te MCI Grade 9 stu-
dent has been playing
hockey since he was six or
seven years old and prior
to the draft played as a
Centre for the Minnedosa
Bantam Bombers. Cen-
tre is a dif cult position
to hold as it demands the
player be all over the place,
but Wahoski enjoys the
challenge. Hes fast and he
always works hard in the
corners. Sometimes its
tough being a slight young
man in a rough game, but
Wahoski says the payofs
are tremendous. Its not
always the easiest to gain
weight and the training
can be pretty hard too but
its worth it if youre willing
to try hard.
In the next week Wa-
hoski and his teammates
will be meeting with head
coach, Bryant Perrier, and
while hes excited to be
playing for the Natives,
hes already looking ahead.
Next year I may try out for
the Yellowhead Chiefs.

T
he current e-coli outbreak in Germany and its pos-
sible origins in salad vegetables highlight the im-
portance of properly cleaning and preparing all vegeta-
bles, says the Kidney Foundation of Canada Manitoba
Branchs Executive Director Val Dunphy. It is crucial to
thoroughly wash all fruit and vegetables prior to serving,
including those you cut or peel, as e-coli bacteria can be
transferred during this action.
Optimal practice begins before you even take the
produce out of the refrigerator. Anyone coming into
contact with produce should start by thoroughly wash-
ing their hands with soap and warm water before touch-
ing the food and should wash them after every instance
of going to the bathroom, handling garbage or changing
diapers.

T
CS welcomed its third
Columbian student
from the Study Manitoba
program last month. Grade
7 student, Julian Andreas
Perez Baron, arrived in
Minnedosa May 18th and
is attending classes in Mrs.
Branconniers classroom
and learning English with
ELA instructor, Mrs. John-
son. I think its a wonder-
ful opportunity for both Ju-
lian and our students here,
said Mrs. Branconnier.
Weve been able to learn a
lot about Columbia.
Eighteen Study Mani-
toba schools are located in
the southwestern corner
of Manitoba. Study Mani-
toba is not an exchange
program and students are
treated like family, not
boarders. Te focus of the
program is to immerse stu-
dents in Canadian culture
and language. While at
school, they are expected
to behave and perform aca-
demically just as any other
student but they are not
graded on their academic
performance. Rather, their
host families and educators
send back a review on how
readily the student partici-
pated in school and family
life while in Manitoba.
While in Minnedosa,
Julian is staying with the
Burgess family and has en-
joyed the many diferent
sights, tastes and activities
available in Canada. Gym
class, canoeing on the play-
ground, cooking in Home
Economics class, and Li-
ons Quest are just a few of
the school activities Julian
has really liked. I tell my
mom about the library,
he added. Julian, like his
mother, enjoys reading and
in an efort to learn English
has signed out books from
both the school and public
libraries.
Natural areas in Cana-
da are quite diferent when
compared to the rainfor-
ests of Columbia, and the
contrast is not lost on Ju-
lian. Tere is lots of nature
here. Tere is not as much
in Bogota. It is really nice.
He has been taking many
photos of animals, such as
the resident bison herd.
In fact, on one of the frst
days in Minnedosa Kim
Burgess took Julian to see
the bison, who at that time
were located at the front of
the compound. While tak-
ing pictures of the herd,
Julian extended his cam-
era through the fence and
a mother got upset with
him and started to grunt
and trot towards the fence.
Te mom was going to at-
tack me! he exclaimed.
She didnt actually get
to the fence, but we went
running for the car, Kim
chuckled.
Also staying in
Minnedosa last week was
Julians staf chaperone
from Jordan of Saxony
school in Bogota, Liz Mari-
lyn Diaz. Liz had previously
spent 15 days in Winnipeg
before coming to Minnedo-
sa Monday, June 6th. While
here, she stayed with Edu-
cational Assistant Bridgett
Doll and her family.
Wow, it has been a
very nice experience. I re-
ally like Canada, Liz re-
marked. I had some prob-
lems with the weather at
frst because its very cold;
but its a beautiful place
with delicious food and the
people are friendly. When
asked why she feels Co-
lumbian families choose
to send their children to
Canada, Liz answered,
Families choose to send
their children to Canada
because they like it. We
had two diferent options to
begin with; Canada or Lon-
don, England, and all the
students chose Canada.
Canada is more beau-
tiful, Julian said. Yes, Liz
agreed. London is a very
large city, like Bogota. We
do have parks and natural
areas, but Canada is difer-
ent.
Canada also gives the
students an experience to
learn English and French.
In Columbia we only speak
Spanish and now English so
coming to Canada exposes
the students to another lan-
guage and culture.
Julian and Liz, along
with fve other Columbian
students who are study-
ing in Manitoba, will head
home June 16th. With so
many memorable experi-
ences to share with fam-
ily and friends in Bogota,
Julian says he will always
cherish his time here in
Minnedosa and hopes to
keep in contact with his
host family and classmates.
I have made a lot of friends
in Canada.
Columbian student loves Canada
Bogota, Columbia student Julian Andreas Perez Baron and his
chaperone, Liz Marilyn Diaz. Julian is going to school at TCS as part
of the Study Manitoba program.

able to play two of their fve scheduled games as three
have been cancelled due to rain.
Te team f nally got to play its frst game last Friday
at the home feld when they took on the Neepawa Cubs.
Despite a brief rain shower, that sent players and spec-
tators running for cover, the game resumed after a short
delay. In the end, our hometown boys defeated the Cubs
6-3.
Monday night, the Mavericks travelled to Portage la

A
vid Harley Davidson
motorcyclist Dwight
(DC) Boyd has raised over
$2,000 in support of the
Breast Cancer Pledge Ride,
which took place in Winni-
peg Sunday, June 5th. DC
has a very special reason
for supporting this rally;
his wife, Michelle, was di-
agnosed with breast can-
cer in January and follow-
ing surgery has begun the
long litany of chemother-
apy treatments necessary
to regain her health. One
of the side-efects of che-
motherapy is hair loss and,
not wanting to draw out
the experience, Michelle
opted to have her head
shaved two days before the
Pledge Ride by her niece,
Anita Boyd at enJoy Salon.
In honour of his wife, and
to show his support for the
cause, DC had his goatee
dyed pink as well.
Together with 16
friends on 10 bikes, DC
and Michelle helped to
raise $14,000 during the
Pledge Ride on Sunday. A
total of 650 people regis-
tered to ride 550 bikes and
travelled from Assiniboia
Downs to Stonewall, Win-
nipeg Beach, Oak Bank,
and back Sunday morn-
ing. Te event raised ap-
proximately $80,000; an
increase of $16,000 over
last years $64,000, and the
top male fundraiser was
Brent Burton, originally
of Franklin, who raised
over $3,000. Tis years
numbers bring the com-
bined ten year total to over
$410,000 that the Pledge
Ride has been able to do-
nate back to fghting breast
cancer in Manitoba.

I
f you are from Minnedo-
sas sister city, Ishii, Ja-
pan, you know what a shi-
shi odoshi is and why it is
important to have a chozu-
backi in your garden. If you
arent Japanese, however,
some of these terms may
have you wondering what
they are and what purpose
they serve. To help visitors
better understand and ap-
preciate all aspects of the
Minnedosa-Ishii Japanese
Garden, the board has
commissioned an orienta-
tion board to point out and
explain various elements.
A chozubacki allows
visitors to customarily
wash their hands and face
before entering a Japa-
nese Garden which would
wash away your cares
and allow you to enjoy the
tranquility of the garden. A
Zen garden is a static gar-
den surrounded by a bam-
boo fence. Te Friendship
Rock was a gift from the
Ishii International Com-
mittee for the gardens
dedication, July 6th, 2008.
A shishi odoshi (deer scare)
is made of water and bam-
boo and these animal-de-
terrent structures are very
common in Japanese Gar-
dens. Also featured in the
garden are a sodi gaki, a
lattice bamboo fence usu-
ally located beside a build-
ing or wall to create a divi-
sion or screen, and a kusari
doi (rain chain); a decora-
tive Japanese rain gutter
that provides a fountain-
like efect.
Te orientation board
is being purchased from
Rapid City Memorials
through a $1,335 grant
from Te Minnedosa
Foundation. Shannon
Baxter, one of the original
university landscape ar-
chitectural students who
came and designed the
garden in 2007, has been
asked to sketch plans for
the board.
Minnedosa and Ishii
became of cial sister cit-
ies in October, 1996 and
cultural adult and youth
exchanges between the
two communities have
been ongoing over the
years. Initiated in 2007 as
a Bridge of Friendship in
Minnedosa, the Ishii Gar-
den is located on the north
side of the Minnedosa Re-
gional Library and is open
May to September.
Last week board mem-
bers began their general
spring cleanup consist-
ing of weeding, fertilizing,
and pruning. Tis year
the garden looks so much
better than it did last year,
stated Jeannie Perkins.
We had such a rough win-
ter in 09-10, and we lost

T
his past week has
brought new meaning
to the word air seeding as
producers literally turned
to the air and seeding by
plane to complete a por-
tion of their canola plant-
ing. Experience with cano-
la seeding by air has had
mixed results due in large
part to the reliance on the
weather to ensure germi-
nation and establishment.
Te key to establishment
with seeding by air or for
that matter any type of
broadcast seeding is a con-
tinuation of light and fre-
quent showers and warm
temperatures that allows
the seed to germinate and
become established. Har-
rowing or incorporation is
usually recommended and
is particularly necessary
under high residue situ-
ations where seed to soil
contact is minimal. Under
low residue situations in-
corporation has little in-
f uence on establishment
with the critical factor be-
ing once again moisture af-
ter seeding. Incorporation
does become more critical
if urea is being broadcast.
Broadcast urea on a moist
soil surface accompanied
by warm windy condi-
tions could see signifcant
amounts of nitrogen gas
of as ammonia gas.
Distribution can be
also be somewhat variable
and is dif cult to visual-
ize due to the relatively
low seeding rate and level
of residue in the felds.
Typically seeding by air
would have seeding rates
increased by 25-30% how-
ever the increased cost of
seed and the higher risk
in getting the crop estab-
lished is making higher
seeding rates uneconomi-
cal.
Compaction and
Crusting Issues
Te 90 + mm of rain
last week has left the
majority of the oilseeds
planted prior to the rain
experiencing crusting and
compaction problems. Te
majority of these acres had
already been seeded under
wet conditions resulting
in increased compaction.
Te excess rain provided
even further compaction
leaving a hard crust which
is now hampering oilseed
emergence especially if
seed placement was be-
low an inch. Ironically the
only solution to mellow-
ing this crusted topsoil is
more light rain until the
plant reaches the three to
fve leaf stage. At this point
its root system will be suf -
ciently established to help
aerate the soil and tap into
fertilizer bands.
Cover Crop Options
Te excess moisture
to date has some felds
destined to go unseeded
prior to the Crop Insur-
ance deadlines. Rather
then leaving these felds in
fallow situations produc-
ers should consider a cov-
er crop which will reduce
weed growth and utilize
some of the excess mois-
ture. Cover crop options
should include whenever
possible a legume such as
f eld peas to fx nitrogen
and some type of annual
grass or cereal crop which
in this area will likely in-
clude barley, oats or per-
haps millet. Feed supplies
are likely to be once again
limited by the lack of na-
tive hay locally and the
f ooded or severely dam-
aged tame forage acres
throughout much of the
rest of the province.

he Minnedosa UCT
hosted its annual Ju-
nior Golf Tournament at
the Minnedosa Golf Club
after school last Friday,
June 3rd. Eleven youth
participated and while the
front nine were still too wet
to play, all the juniors had
a great time trying their
skill on the back nine. For
many, last Fridays golf
tournament was their frst
time golfng and everyone

the game.

ment, certifcates and priz-
es were awarded to each
player. Results for the 11

T
he Minnedosa Chan-
cellors boys rugby
team wrapped up their
season in Winnipeg last
Saturday, June 4th, win-
ning silver at the provin-
cial high school rugby
championship. Te Chan-
cellors lost the gold medal
game to the St. Johns Ra-
venscourt Eagles, 17-14.
Trys during the game were
scored by Brady Ingenmey
and Jason Galbraith, and
Sam Ross made two con-
versions.
It was a very, very
close game, remarked
Chancellors coach, Gavin
Roche. We were leading
with eight minutes to go.
Tose boys left everything
on that feld. Tere were
no regrets. It was a very
clean, hard game between
two really competitive
teams, and we just came a
bit short.
Roches son, T omas,
plays for the Eagles and
Roche said the experience
was very emotional. Tat
was a surreal, odd feeling
for me. It wasnt easy to
deal with, I think it took
a chunk of my soul, he
joked.
During the semi-f nals
on Friday, the Chancellors
beat the St. Pauls Crusad-
ers 19-12. Tey had beat-
en us in two previous fnals
in 99 and 2000 so that was
a nice bonus for us, said
Roche.
Tomorrow (Saturday,
June 11th), seven boys
from the Chancellors team
will be participating in
the MHSR All-Star Game
in Brandon; Brady In-
genmey, Jason Galbraith,
Dana Burgess, Tomas
Parish, Mike McKenzie,
Sam Ross, and Gordie
Ross. To me theyre all
stars, said Roche. Tose
guys deserve it.
As for next year, Roche
is looking forward to new
challenges and successes
with a slightly younger
team, comprised of mostly
Grade 11 students. Were
going to have to do some
adjusting but these guys
are well-versed in what
theyve got to do so its
just a matter of stepping
up to the plate and seeing
what the younger guys will
bring.
2011 marks 14 years of
rugby in Minnedosa and
Roche is pleased that the
sport has grown to the lev-
el of skill and community
involvement that it has.
Te nice thing about this
whole thing is weve got a
senior mens team thats
a club of 30+ friends, he
said. Were af liated with
the Barbarians but its pre-
dominantly Minnedosa
guys on the division two
team and theyve kept
playing over the years. You
get to meet new people
and Im just happy its tak-
en of. Its a good thing.

school rugby provincials

H
arry Jackson was born
in 1921 in the Em-
pire district, ffteen miles
northeast of Minnedosa.
Harry went to the lo-
cal school along with his
brother and sister. It was
a one-room schoolhouse
with approximately 35
students. We travelled to
school in the wintertime
with a team of horses and
sleigh, in the summertime
by wagon and horses, re-
calls Harry.
He remembers his sis-
ter falling out of the wagon
one day while travelling to
school. Te wheel of the
wagon went right across
her stomach, but luckily
it did not cause too much
harm and she survived.
Te winters were quite
harsh back then, with
snowdrifts as high as the
top of the telephone wires.
It was not unusual to have
anything from 35 or 40 be-
low weather in the winter.
Wood-burning stoves were
the common method of
cooking and also keeping
the house warm. As you
can imagine it got pretty
chilly when the fre went
out, said Harry.
Harry also remembers
the house being so cold at
night that often the pail of
water would be frozen sol-
id.
My dad and I would
travel twenty miles with a
doubled-up sleigh to pick
up timber out of the bush to
burn on the fre. We would
have a loaf of bread with
us to eat and have to cut it
with the axe because it was
frozen solid, thats what we
called the good old days,
we were happy and we sur-
vived, said Harry with a big
smile.
As a young man, Harry
spent his days working with
a tractor on the farm from
6 a.m. to 6 p.m. for $1.00 a
day. We would come to
Minnedosa with 25 cents
and think we had the world
by the tail, remembers
Harry. We would go see a
show and have money left
over.
On July 14th, 1941
Harry joined the Royal Ca-
nadian Air Force and was
sent to Toronto then on to
Hagersville, Ontario where
he worked on aircraft elec-
trical for over two years.
During this time he
met and married Eunice
Childs from Winnipeg. We
were married 49 years and
nine months, three months
short of 50 years, says Har-
ry.
After Harry got out of
the Air Force in 1949 he
moved back to Minnedosa
and worked for CPR and
Agristeel. I worked for
Minn-Toba Industries, a
f rm that manufactured
farm machinery for 24
years and retired in 1986,
said Harry.
Today Harry reisides
at Town View Manor and
recently celebrated his 90th
birthday.
Looking back on life
of nine decades Harry says
I may have a few regrets
but I dont dwell on them I
think about how lucky I am
and what a great life I have
had. I also have a lot of great
friends who visit with me
and make sure I am okay.

We sat beside your bedside
Our hearts were crushed
and sore
We did our best to the end

In tears we watched
you sinking
We watched you fade away
And though our hearts
were breaking
We knew you could not stay.
You left behind some
aching hearts
Tat loved you most sincere
We never shall and never will
Forget you Carolyn dear.
Sadly missed and forever
loved.

Sleeping
It was so dif cult to let you go
Tough deaths left us no
other choice
Were mourning the loss of
never seeing you again
Of never hearing your
precious voice
It seems that in life there are
certain times
Which are more than
simply unfair
When our hearts search out
for better answers
Butcannot seem to fnd
them there
And suchis the case at
your passing
Contemplating thebriefness
of your life
All the great things that you
couldhave done
If only youd been granted
the time
It isnt dif cult to envision
the possibilities
For look atwhat youve
already done
Te diference youve made in
so many lives
We love you our little one
With all of our love, hugs and
kisses

Special thanks to the fourth foor staf of Brandon Regional

MARGIE LOU CASSIDY
(nee BOYD)
It is with great sadness our family
announces the passing of our beloved
mother, grandmother, and sister, Margie
Lou Cassidy on May 17, 2011 at the St.
Adolphe Personal Care Home following a
lengthy struggle with Alzheimers. She was
74 years old.
Margie was the second eldest of seven
children born to Blanche (Vann) and Norman
Boyd on December 31, 1936 in Minnedosa, MB. Te family
lived in the Bethany area then moved and settled in Selkirk, MB
in 1942. Margie was raised and educated in Selkirk. She did
well in school and was very athletic, softball and track being
her favourites. After graduation she moved to Winnipeg with
her sister Evelyn where she attended Success Business College.
Tis diploma opened doors to many of ce jobs that Margie had
over the years.
Margie married Doug Cassidy on October 12, 1957. Doug
worked as a miner so this took them many places including Flin
Flon, Elliot Lake, Tompson, Saltcoates, and Esterhazy. In 1967
they moved to Minnedosa and made it their home.
Margie loved being active. Her pastimes included fshing
with Doug, bike riding with her grandchildren, walking with
friends, curling and bowling. Watching her boys play hockey
and baseball flled her time for many years. Any down time she
had was spent reading a book or a newspaper.
Margie lived her life and faced challenges she encountered
with a ferce independence, pragmatic approach, and very
strong work ethic. At times, while raising four children, she
held up three jobs while also volunteering in the community.
She valued friendships she made in the community as well as
with co-workers over the years in Minnedosa and Neepawa.
She ended her of ce career at Co-op in 1993 and became
Dougs driving partner enjoying the next few years trucking
across North America.
Margie was predeceased by her husband Doug, her brother
Bruce, her parents Norman and Blanche, and her in-laws,
George and Jessie.
She leaves to celebrate her life her four children and their
families. Susan (Ron), Kirk (Martha), Greg (Marla-Rae), Troy
(Connie), eight grandchildren, Jana-Rae, Aaron, Breanna,
Taryn, Alexia, Clarke, Abigail, and Jenna and great-grandson
Drew. As well she is survived by her siblings, Evelyn (Murray),
Meriam (David), Terry (Carol), Basil, Norman (Donna), and
sister-in-law Elaine as well as many nieces and nephews.
We will always remember Mom fondly and with admiration for
her strength, commitment to family, cynical sense of humour,
and her banter with Doug.
A memorial/graveside will be held at a later date at St. John
Cemetery in Bethany, MB. Donations in Margies memory may
be made to a charity of your choice.
Arrangements made through Wheeler Funeral Chapel. x
