Grizzly The Dog A Hit At Speaker’s Night
By Hillary Miller
T he Minnedosa Rotary
Club’s Speakers Night
last month featured a num-
ber of guest speakers. The
first was Mark Saler and his
special companion, Griz-
zly, his St. Bernard. The
gentle giant was the show
stealer and sat patiently
(for the most part), while
Saler told the crowd all of
the great things that the
pair does in the Westman
Community.
Grizzly is three-and-
a-half years old and is a li-
censed therapy dog. Saler,
who is from Minnedosa,
has always had St. Ber-
nards, and could not stress
enough that they have the
kindest temperament,
making them perfectly
suited to being therapy
dogs.
The pair often make
trips to hospitals in the
Brandon, Minnedosa and
Neepawa areas. They try
to make it to Brandon
weekly and Minnedosa
and Neepawa monthly.
The two go to hospitals to
try to bring joy to those
who need it the most: the
ailing patients therein.
Saler noted that the Bran-
don Hospital has a special
place in his heart – the
cancer ward which they
visit often. “Grizzly is re-

MCI Students Taking Part In National Programs
By Hillary Miller
T hree students from
Minnedosa Colle-
giate Institute have truly
stood out recently. Rayna
Topham and Trinity Nylen
will be attending the Mod-
el United Nations Assem-
bly (MUNA) in Winnipeg
over the first weekend in
May. Kain Hayward has
already attended Encoun-
ters with Canada.
MUNA is run by the
Rotary Club of Winnipeg
and will be held on the
campus of the Canadian
Mennonite University. It
is open to high school stu-
dents from Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan, Ontario, Min-
nesota and the Dakotas.
The assembly’s pur-
pose is to provide high
school students the oppor-
tunity to take on global cit-
izenship as they simulate
the United Nations Assem-
bly. Each team is to pro-
vide a counsellor that will
help mentor and prepare
the students for the event.

began her involvement
with MUNA as a student
delegate when she attend-

excited to have the oppor-
tunity to now participate
as a counsellor,” she said.
“The students gain valu-
able lessons about looking
at issues from others’ per-
spectives, public speaking,
and participating in formal
proceedings.”
Last year, the students
who attended MUNA on
behalf of MCI were Ryan
McLenehan and Michael
Kreshewski, with Donna
Alexander as counsellor,
and the group was award-
ed the Bert Friesen Award
for the Best Prepared Del-
egation.
From April 15th to

Around
Town... By Darryl Holyk
Castle changes hands…
Minnedosa’s historic mansion, affectionately
known as “the castle”, has new owners! Darrell and
the late Pat Graham had the beautiful old home on
the market for the past few years and with the arrival
of a new month, Dr. Robert Kruk of Carman, MB has
purchased the heritage home. Although no longer
called Tilson Place, the handsome brick structure
will continue to operate as a bed and breakfast un-
der the name of Kruk Castle. The business will be
managed by Connie Piatkowski, who informs me
of some exciting décor changes including some an-
tique beds, new mattresses and new bedding. Terry
Smith of THEM has been busy repainting some of the
interior spaces at Kruk Castle and the public can see
the changes at an open house being planned for next
month. With the recent sale of “the castle”we wish
former owner Darrell Graham all the best in his fu-
ture endeavors.
Farewell party…
There was a big turnout of well wishers at
Minnedosa Credit Union last Thursday afternoon.
The purpose of the crowd was a come and go party
to bid a fond farewell to Carol Taylor who has retired
from MCU after just over four decades of employ-
ment. Credit Union members can expect to still see
her familiar face when doing their banking from time
to time as Carol plans to “fill in” at MCU from time to
time. Enjoy your well deserved retirement Carol!
Another birthday…
Tuesday, April 10th marks the anniversary of the
first time water spilled over the original Minnedosa
Spillway. That means that April 10th is our lake’s
birthday and this year will mark 106 years for our lo-
cal body of water! Minnedosa Lake’s birthday is sig-
nificant in history for another major water-related
event – it was that exact day – April 10th, 1912 - that
the RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton, England
on her doomed maiden voyage.

What We Stand For
By CaM DahL
President of Cereals Canada
I t has been said by quite a few people that organiza-
tions are best defined by what they oppose versus
what they support. That seems like too cynical of a
view of the world. I want to talk about what we stand
for.
Canadian agriculture stands for science-based
regulations and rules of trade. Why? Because farmers
across this country depend on access to international
markets for their livelihood. A farmer in Mortlach, SK
must have access to Japan, Indonesia, Algeria and
about 100 other countries in order to ensure their
farm is economically viable. If countries are free to
set up trade barriers in response to the latest internet
trends with no reference to evidence-based health or
safety concerns than our friends farming in Mortlach
will soon find themselves without any markets to sell
into.
What is this “science” that we stand for? This is
the science behind Canada’s regulatory approval pro-
cess for pesticides. Pesticides that are registered for
use in Canada have been tested and found to be safe
– safe for human health, safe for animal feed and safe
for the environment. This applies even to pesticides
like glyphosate that the “experts” on the internet
might not like. This assessment of safety is built upon
rigorous research, scientific peer review and studies
that have been replicated around the world.
Modern Canadian agriculture also stands for
sustainability. What is “modern agriculture?” Mod-
ern agriculture makes use of pesticides and chemical
fertilizers. Modern agriculture is often large in scale.
Modern agriculture makes use of cutting-edge tech-
nology to deliver new plant varieties that give higher
yields, are more resistant to disease and have superi-
or quality. Modern farmers use GPS, satellite imagery
and big data to precisely place seeds and crop nutri-
ents.
Many might think words like “modern”, “large
scale”, “pesticides” and “chemical fertilizer” do not
belong next to “sustainability”. But these words do
belong together. Modern Canadian agriculture has a
fantastic sustainability story to tell. And yes, I am go-
ing to use a bit of science to tell that story.
Between 1981 and 2011 (the last year for which
we have data) the amount of energy needed to pro-

duce a tonne of wheat in the prairies declined by 39%.
Back in 1981, soil organic matter was being depleted.
But because of modern agriculture, such as conserva-
tion tillage, organic matter in prairie soils is increas-
ing every year. What does this mean? Well, it means
soil is healthier today than it was in 1981. Soil is more
productive, it is less susceptible to wind and soil ero-
sion and farms across the country are sequestering
carbon dioxide every year.
If you happen to live near Mortlach, SK you will
know that the summer of 2017 saw record low rainfall
in the region. In many towns, there was less rain than
the famous droughts of the 1930s. And yet farmers in
Mortlach did not have a complete crop failure. Nor
did Saskatchewan soil blow into Ontario all summer
long like it did in the “Dirty ‘30s.” I find it hard to think
of more graphic demonstrations of the sustainability
of modern agriculture.
Modern agriculture stands for science, we stand
for innovation and we stand for sustainability. Some
try to say that this means we stand against other ap-
proaches, like organic or natural production. This is
not true and is a false conflict that is harmful to farm-
ers who utilize both production systems.
There is room for many different ways of produc-
ing food, provided these production systems are safe
for the people who eat what is produced, safe for the
livestock that depends on the feed grown and is safe
for the land and water. These are scientific questions
that are a matter of evidence.
What we do not stand for is governments deviat-
ing from scientific evidence because of pressure from
activists who do not believe the scientific consensus
on modern agricultural practices. Deviating from an
evidence-based approach, such as banning or lim-
iting pesticides that have been shown to be safe or
limiting the use of modern biotechnology, will limit
the tools available to farmers. This will reduce the
environmental gains that we have seen in the last
twenty years. Deviating from science-based rules of
trade will limit agriculture’s ability to access markets
around the world, deliver jobs to every region of the
country and support our economic health.
So, I guess in the end we are defined a bit by what
we are against. But this is not fellow producers who
are trying to make a living meeting varying demands
coming from consumers. That we stand for.

Letters to the Editor

Re: Removal of Local Pharmacy Ye O l d
Services for Personal Care Facilities
Dear Sir,

I read with frustration last week’s Letter to the Editor

from our local MLA, Greg Nesbitt. You see, Mr. Nes-
bitt’s comments on the provincial government’s so-called
cost-saving action did not, in any fashion, address the
hardships to rural towns which this decision will impose.
There are real and immediate consequences from taking
the dispensing, packaging, and delivery of pharmaceuti-
cals away from local pharmacies.
For example, if one pharmacist or pharmacy techni-
cian is laid off, or has their work hours cut back, here’s
what happens:
- they will move, for employment, to a city where
there are more retail dispensaries, which means their
family will move with them.
- another house goes up for sale, adding to the inven-
tory of unsold homes.
- the family is no longer here to purchase food from
local grocers and farmer’s markets.
- the family is no longer here to purchase goods from
local merchants.
- the family is no longer here to purchase services
from local vendors (e.g. haircuts).

Speaker Shares Struggles of Tanzania
By Hillary Miller
T he South Mountain
Refugee Sponsorship
Committee held a presen-
tation at the Minnedosa
United Church on Tues-
day, March 20th. The spe-
cial guest speaker at the
presentation was Beny
Mwenda, from the Tanza-
nia Society of Agricultural
Education and Extension
(TSAEE), where he dis-
cussed farming as a viable
economic option for youth
in Tanzania.
The event was open
to anyone who was inter-
ested in attending, and a
silver collection was avail-
able to those who wished
to make a donation. There
were about 25 people who
attended the event.
Beny Mwenda is a
graduate from Assiniboine
Community College (ACC)

in the Rural Development
program, and also holds a
Master’s degree in Com-
munity Economic Devel-
opment from the Open
University of Tanzania.
Recently, he received the
Alumni Award for Com-
munity Service from ACC,
which he was able to re-
turn to Canada to accept.
It is for this reason that he
is currently in Canada, as
he has participated in a
number of speaking events
in Manitoba.
According to Natasha
Pearen, from the United
Church, Mwenda gave his
audience a glimpse into
the struggles that are faced
in rural Tanzania, with
specific reference to the
struggles faced in agricul-
ture. He also spoke about
micro credit, and “the op-
portunities for other en-
trepreneurs to have their
Tuesday at 12 Noon
ideas or start-ups funded”,
she said, noting that this
could include something
like a sewing machine,
where the person might
need a loan in order to pur-
chase it, but would then be
able to sustain themselves
better. “It doesn’t really
take a lot to improve the
standards of living in Tan-
zania,” Pearen said.
Mwedna has co-or-
dinated rural projects in
Tanzania since 1996. He
supports rural women’s
and youth groups to al-
leviate poverty and build
local leadership. He has
also worked as an educator
within the Ministry of Agri-
culture Training Institute
in Tanzania, and has posi-
tively influenced the lives
of thousands of graduates
who have gone on to shape
agriculture in the region.

tion discussed how ag-
riculture and rural com-
munities suffer when the
most energetic segment
of the population, the
youths, are not engaged
in the production of food,
rural entrepreneurship
and community leader-
ship. Mwenda discussed
how TSAEE helps this is-
sue by transferring knowl-
edge and skills relating to
creating income from agri-
culture, that young people
need to know in rural com-
munities. After his presen-
tation, Mwenda took ques-
tions from the audience,
and Pearen said that “there
were definitely people
there who were intrigued
by what he was sharing.”

H ello Minnedosa! Lots of things coming out of the Rec
Office lately.
First up – a big thanks to everyone who came out to
our Easter Party! I had a blast making crafts and looking
for Easter eggs with you. Our registrations for swimming
lessons are nearly full, so come see me if you still need
to sign up. There is still space available for our Kids in
the Kitchen, Little Sports Stars, Pre-School Music Class,
Zumba and more in the works.
It’s hard to think about summer when it’s still so
snowy and cold outside but it’s coming up quick! Canada
Day plans are well underway and we are looking for some
community members to be apart of the Canada Day
Committee – contact me at the rec office for more info.
And speaking of summer, we have nearly finalized our
summer staff so be on the lookout in the next few weeks
for Day Camp information!

… Okay, how many
is that? Oh, oh lost count
again! I have a good
memory but sometimes
it comes up short if you
know what I mean.
What am I counting?
Eye glasses that we have
collected as a Lions Club.
Why? because back about
80 years ago, when Lions
Clubs International orga-
nization was only about
20-years-old, a lady by
the name of Helen Keller
asked the Lions to be her
“knights of the blind”, to
help to prevent blindness
and provide relief to those
with impaired vision. Well
that was the beginning, as
the Lions clubs all over the
world now help to alleviate
suffering and improve the
lives of those with vision
challenges. Yes, I did say
all over the world as there
are Lions clubs in over 110
countries in the world with
approximately 1.4 million
ing the eyeglasses here
in Manitoba! All Lions
Clubs members here in
Manitoba will accept used
glasses and hearing aids.
In Minnedosa we have a
collection box in the post
office and also rely on the
local optometrist to col-
lect the used glasses. These
glasses are picked up regu-
larly and then we box them
up after taking them out of
the cases. One of the Lions
then takes them into the
Eye Bank office in Winni-
peg where they put togeth-
er with used glasses from
other clubs and transport-
ed to Calgary, AB. In Cal-
gary the Canadian Lions
Eyeglass Recycling Centre
the lenses are separated
from the frames, sorted
according to the type and
strength etc. and shipped
off to another center for
further refurbishing. These
completely redone glasses,

have been examined by
optometrists and require
assistance to see. Some of
these people have never
been able to see clearly or
to learn to read because of
their vision impairment.
The same type of re-
furbishment is carried out
for the used hearing aids
for those with hearing
challenges.
This is only one of the
many humanitarian type
of projects that all the Li-
ons Clubs support, day in
and day out, all over the
world. If you are interested
in helping us or learning
about what we do in other
ways to help those in need
- locally, nationally or in-
ternationally let one of the
Minnedosa Lions know
and perhaps we can intro-
duce you to your next best
slice of life. It feels so good Photo submitted

young women, Shayla
Woychyshyn and Rylee
Paterson each competed
in the fair for the first time
with their heifers on the
final two days of the fair -
Friday and Saturday.

students and teachers had
an enjoyable spring break
despite the chilly weather.
Ian and Kim Parish re-
turned home recently from
who is 14-years-old, was
showing a heifer, Debra,
which she purchased in
the fall. In order to ready
her heifer for the big event,
Shayla spent months train-
ing the heifer to lead and
grooming, combing and
brushing to ensure the
animal was fair-ready. Ac-
cording to her father, Terry
Woychyshyn Jr., Shayla
had a really great time, and
is eager to compete at the
Winter Fair again next year.
Rylee, who is 13-years-
old, earned the Reserve

Saturday morning with her

day, Rylee placed fourth in
the Showmanship Class.
According to her father,
Geoff Paterson, she thor-
oughly enjoyed being at
the fair this year, and is
“bound and determined
that she is going back next
year”. He added that since
showing at the fair, Rylee
has been on cloud nine.
Paterson enjoys work-
ing with cattle and joined
4-H about six years ago.
This year, she spent a lot
of time tying the heifer up,
brushing her and training
her to be quiet in prepa-
ration for the fair. During
the recent Royal Manitoba
Winter Fair, she attended
a grooming clinic which
helped her prepare the
heifer for showing. Pat-
