The RM Review “Your COMMUNITY, Your NEWSPAPER” www.rmreview.net
One hour to go before I have to send this month’s
paper off to the printer. Hmmm.... what to write
for an editorial...
Many topics have been running through my mind
in the past month, that at the time, I thought
would make a great editorial.
If only I could remember just one of them now !
Maybe my brain is just not firing on all cylinders
right now after the big lunch I just consumed ?
Maybe I’m over-tired from participating in too
many local summer events and activities ?
Or maybe age is just catching up with me ?
After all it is my birthday on Friday and somehow
I will be turning 54 years old.
I know... it doesn’t seem possible, does it ?
It is hard for me to believe, but
I’m sure those of you that know me to see me
must have trouble believing it too.
Be it my persisting, boyish, good looks, or my
spunky youthful attitude, many people I meet
would never think of me as 54 years old.
But, for whatever reason, my eyelids seem to be
drooping right now, and I still have to spell check
this thing and send it off to the printer.
So for now, enjoy the rest of the paper.
I promise to get rested up in August and return
with new energy next month.
Enjoy the abundance of
local events and activities
for the rest of the summer.
Happy Saskatchewan Day

Village of Vanscoy
On July 24,2015 at 6:00 p.m. I was minding my own business driving home on,
the very busy, Highway 7 going west towards Delisle, Saskatchewan. Traffic
at this time was very busy, going both ways, as to be expected at this time of
day on this highway. Construction has started on the four lane expansion and traffic
was moving about 80km/hr. Traffic was backed up bumper to bumper, both ways, for
as far as I could see.
I like to be aware of my surroundings because you never know what might happen,
and I want to always be prepared. I looked in my rear view mirror to do a check and
low and behold I have a semi driving right on my bumper. I kept a watch on it and
was getting very nervous because he had shown no signs of slowing down and there
were a pile of cars in front of me. I looked again and now he was honking his horn at
me and almost touching my bumper. I had no where to go, as there are cars in front
of me, cars coming at me and a semi and a pile of cars behind me.
I have myself, my 12 year old and 1 year old daughters in my mini van. Definitely no
match for a semi !!
I kept watch on this semi as he proceeds to stay on my tail giving very little room for
error. As we approached Vanscoy I could hardly believe what my eyes witnessed.....
the semi truck driver decided to take the fate of others lives into his own hands.
He started to pass in the double line, no passing zone going through Vanscoy while
there was a stream of cars coming right toward him. The other cars also heading
west, had no room to pull over and let him back in the lane because there is a guard
rail along the shoulder, and the cars coming east are staring at this semi straight on.
With quick thinking and little time to react, all the east bound cars pull over to avoid
being hit.
You can probably imagine that watching this would shake a person up.
I felt that this driver needed to be taken off the road as he is clearly not a safe driver
and has no regard for another human being.
I called 911 and the dispatch asked me some questions and said she would dispatch
someone out immediately. She asked if I was ok as I was clearly shaken up. She in-
structed me to keep my phone on as an officer would be calling me.
Sure enough one did, but not to my surprise he was no help. He proceeded to tell me
that they have no officers out in the Delisle area so there was nothing they could do.
He said he himself was in Warman where they are dispatched from. I asked him if
they could dispatch someone from Rosetown, but some how there were no officers
there either. He then proceeded to say "what do you want me to do about it?"
Well I am not a person of the law but is it not his job to figure that one out?
You have just had a report of what could have been a very tragic turn of events and
all you say is ‘what do you want me to do’ ??!!
Every day people are killed in accidents that shouldn't happen. Accidents that are
caused by careless drivers. The government puts up signs for people to report im-
paired drivers. What's the point? Nothing gets done. There are no RCMP to be seen.
There is a flaw in the legal system here. Someone could be massacring the town and
how long would it take for our RCMP to come from 45min away? Probably longer
than it would take for a speeding bullet, robbery, or dangerous or impaired driver !!
Again I say what it the point?
I guess I write this with concern, what does one do to make sure they are safe on the
roads, in their homes or out in the public when the people who are supposed to be
protecting us are 45 minutes away and respond with "what do you want me to do?"

Delisle Agencies Donates New
Firefighting Tools to Department
Rob Ouellette of Delisle AgenciesLtd. made a presentation of a newtype of fire fighting tool to Delisle
and District Fire and Rescue Depart-ment on Saturday the 18th of July at9:30 AM at Delisle Agencies located at209 1st Street West Delisle SK.
This new tool is the DSPA-5 (Dry Sprin-kler Powder Aerosol) and is a rapid in-tervention tool that can be used by firefighters and first responders as a highlyeffective knock down tool to suppress orslow a structure fire until further re-sources can be brought into action. TheDSPA 5 generator is non-pressurizedand is deployed manually into a room or
compartment that requires firefighting.After activation, an aerosol cloud is gen-erated, which expands volumetrically,flooding the space and knocking downthe flames. This tool has been referred toin the fire service as the Fire Extin-guisher Grenade
Delisle and District Fire and rescue cov-ers the Town of Delisle, Village ofVanscoy, Village of Pike Lake, RM ofVanscoy and the RM of Montrose andother communities within the RM’s. Themain Fire hall is Located in the Town ofDelisle, with satellite halls in Pike Lake,Donavon, and Vanscoy.

Ihave great sympathy
for the problems of
fires and pipelines,
but where are the con-
cerns over water manage-
ment? We can stagger
along while the statistical
chances of an extended
drought hangs out there
threatening the economy
of the prairies and the se-
curity of water supply for
the urban expansions lim-
ited. But the actions re-
quired will take years to
establish with a demand
for billions of dollars. In-
action, as has been the re-
sponse of federal and
provincial leaders is sim-
ply appalling.
This year’s drought
should be warning
enough, but the silence of
politicians on the subject
reflects their four year vi-
sion. Is there another
leadership comparable to
the Douglas, Stewart,
Diefenbaker and Gardner
one to start the ball mov-
ing?
I plead with Premier
Wall, with his big major-
ity and ability to speak to
the country’s leaders to
make water management
his legacy.
Opinions expressed here
are those of the author.

Your home's curb appeal is the first chance to impress potential buyers.
Whether buyers are wowed by a beautiful and well-maintained yard or are re-
pelled by dirty exterior walls and an overgrown lawn can significantly impact
your home's sales price. When buyers pull up to a house, they want to be able to pic-
ture themselves living in and coming home to it. Making sure your home is prepared
— both inside and out — before you put it on the market could help it sell faster and
for top dollar.
Here are a few tips to make sure your curb appeal is making the best impression on
potential buyers:
• Clean your house. It's not only the inside of your home that needs to be kept clean
of dirt and grime, the outside of your home should be just as spotless Clean your
outer walls with soapy water and wash your windows inside and out. Washing your
house can substantially raise the sale price.
• A new coat of paint It is like a face-lift for your home, but don't try to make a
statement with your home's color. If your home is a wildly different color
from the other homes in your neighborhood, it could negatively affect a
buyer's perception of the home's value
• A well-manicured yard. Your front yard creates your home's first impression to
prospective buyers, so make sure that your lawn is green and trimmed and your
shrubs and flower beds are well tended. It is important to keep your yard neat, rak-
ing any fallen leaves and pulling any weeds.
• Repair the roof. If your roof is damaged, dirty or missing shingles, it can have a
negative impact on the value of your home. If your neighbors' roofs are well main-
tained or have been recently replaced, it will make yours look especially ragged.
By making a few simple changes to your home's exterior, you can increase your
home's value and hopefully help it sell more quickly this spring.
Look for us in the next issue…ask us a question…we will be happy to answer it for
you!

SEWER BACKUP AND WATER ESCAPE
CLAIMS NOW AVERAgE OVER $30,000
Sewer Backup and Water Escape are now the
largest source of property insurance claims, with
the average claim exceeding $30,000. Water dam-
age related repairs are costly, time consuming and
must be done properly in order to prevent mould.
Sewer backup results when the volume of water and
sewage flowing into a sewer or septic system exceeds
its capacity. Other causes of sewer backup include
blocked connections caused by tree roots, collapsed
pipes or improper use of the sewer or septic system. If
you have a septic system on your farm or acreage, dam-
age can also be caused by electrical or mechanical fail-
ure and frozen or damaged septic lines.
Note insurance companies, such as Wawanesa Mutual
have introduced major changes to sewer backup cover-
age as losses continue to soar. Higher end finishes and
furnishings in basements, combined with aging munici-
pal infrastructure and climate change resulting in
more frequent and severe storms have made the cur-
rent rating system unsustainable. Wawanesa policy-
holders will need to select a limit of insurance for your
sewer backup coverage based on your actual exposure
to loss. If you require higher limits (such as having a
finished basement with many belongings) then your
premium will be increased accordingly. Installation of
a mainline backwater valve may reduce the cost of in-
surance or be required as a condition of insurance, es-
pecially if your home has ever had a claim.
How to Prepare:
1) Install a mainline backwater valve which allows
sewage to flow in only one direction – out of your house.
Inspect all back water valves annually to ensure they
are clear of debris.
2) Install sump pumps and high-water alarms in your
basement. Add a battery or generator backup system
for emergency power during outages.
3) Have sewer drain lines professionally cleaned peri-
odically, or whenever the drains run slowly. Never pour
fats, oils and grease down your drains.
4) Store belongings on shelves, pallets or inside plastic
storage containers. Store anything expensive, valuable
or irreplaceable upstairs.
5) Ensure downspouts are free of debris and are di-
rected at least 6 feet away. Clean and maintain your
eaves at least once a year. Disconnect your downspouts
and weeping tile from any municipal sewer systems.
6) Reduce home water use during heavy rains. Keep
sewer caps on all basement sewer outlets (including
your floor drain, washer stack, sump hole, etc.) during
rainstorms. After a backwater valve has been installed
do not use plumbing, for example, flushing toilets, run-
ning dishwashers, washing machines, or running taps,
etc. during intense rainfall events. If the home plumb-
ing is used when the backwater valve is closed, water
will have no way to exit your home until the valve has
reopened.

On July 14, 2015,
Prime Minister
Stephen Harper
announced that Canada
and Ukraine have suc-
cessfully concluded nego-
tiations toward the
Canada-Ukraine Free
Trade Agreement
(CUFTA) in Meech Lake,
Quebec.
CUFTA will provide
Canadian exports with
improved market access
to the Ukrainian market,
help address non-tariff
barriers and facilitate
closer economic relations.
In addition, CUFTA will
provide Ukrainian ex-
ports with improved ac-
cess to the Canadian
market, which is consis-
tent with the Government
of Canada’s unwavering
commitment to support
Ukraine’s democratic
transition and economic
reforms.
CUFTA will result in the
elimination of all Ukrain-
ian tariffs on fish and
seafood products, indus-
trial goods, and forestry
and wood products. It will
also eliminate the vast
majority of Ukraine’s
agricultural tariffs.
Agriculture and Agri-food
CUFTA will significantly
improve market access for
Saskatchewan’s agricul-
tural and agri-food prod-
ucts by eliminating or
reducing tariffs on 99.9
percent of Canada’s cur-
rent agricultural exports
to Ukraine.
For example, Canadian
agriculture exporters will
benefit from duty-free ac-
cess for beef, pulses,
grains, canola oil,
processed foods and ani-
mal feed. Canadian pork
producers will benefit
from improved access to
Ukraine’s market via a
large tariff rate quota.
Industrial Goods
Canada’s industrial ex-
ports averaged $148.3
million annually from
2011 to 2013. CUFTA will
significantly improve
market access for
Saskatchewan’s indus-
trial products sector by
eliminating all tariffs on
Canadian industrial ex-
ports to Ukraine.
The world’s food security cannot be met without fertilizer additions, good land stewardship and sound agronomic practices. Without fertilizer, the world could only produce about half as much
food as it currently does today. In other words, we have a direct impact on feeding the world.

Feeding theWorld
RM Review8 August 2015 www.rmreview.net
During times of dry
conditions, the
urge to use as
much as possible of what
little forage growth there
is, may be overwhelming.
Before doing so, producers
must consider the future
consequences of pushing
pastures to obtain more
grazing days.
No Roots – No Grass
Roughly two-thirds of
total plant growth occurs
below ground, while the
above ground portion only
makes up about one-third.
The extensive root system
forms the lifeline for for-
age plants and helps en-
sure long-term survival as
well as productivity.
Moisture stress can re-
duce or impair root
growth even without
added grazing pressure.
When plants are repeat-
edly grazed, without a re-
covery period, the root
system becomes increas-
ingly shallow. This re-
sults in plants that are
less vigorous, robust and
productive.
Resist the Urge
The amount and distribu-
tion of dead plant mate-
rial, also known as litter,
on a pasture is an indica-
tor of previous grazing
management. Litter is an
essential component of a
healthy pasture and
ecosystem. The litter left
behind helps to shade and
cool the soil, which re-
duces evaporation and
conserves moisture. Lit-
ter also helps to protect
the soil from erosion and
maintains soil stability.
Removing every last blade
of grass leads to decreas-
ing litter carryover and
increases recovery time.
Effective rest is the time
required for plants to re-
cover during the growing
season. The amount of
rest needed depends on
the amount of leaf area
remaining after grazing
and the time of grazing
during the growing sea-
son. Under ideal condi-
tions, effective rest for
tame pastures is four to
six weeks. If limited
moisture is available, the
plant will not regrow as
quickly and a longer rest
period is needed. Over-
grazed plants will use
root reserves for leaf area
regrowth and stop allocat-
ing resources to root
growth in an attempt to
survive short-term. When
dry conditions persist into
subsequent years, desir-
able plants will first re-
duce production and
eventually disappear from
a pasture.
It takes Moisture to
Grow Grass
There are no quick-fix so-
lutions to forage growth
during times of dry condi-
tions. The absence of
moisture will inevitably
result in absence of forage
growth. Adjusting stock-
ing rates and using alter-
native feeding systems
helps protect pastures
and ensures animal re-
quirements are being met.
As much as it is tempting,
overgrazing pastures in
dry conditions is not
worth the loss of produc-
tion in subsequent graz-
ing seasons. Leaving
sufficient carry-over and
allowing sufficient time
for plants to recover may
be the hardest but most
critical grazing manage-
ment decisions made dur-
ing dry conditions.
AGRICULTURE REPORTSRegionalForageSpecialist
The Cost of OvergrazingWhy it doesn’t pay to push your pasture
Sarah Sommerfeld, PAg
You may have an-
nual crop that ei-
ther has multiple
stages or has germinated
late enough that maturity
prior to a frost may be a
risk. Either of these situ-
ations would provide an
opportunity to sell or use
this crop as greenfeed to
replace hay. Hay will be
in short supply so live-
stock producers will be
looking for greenfeed as a
replacement. Staging for
harvest as greenfeed or
silage is not as critical as
it is for grain harvest.
Almost any of the annual
crops that we are growing
could be used for green-
feed. This would include
canola – however there
are precautions with
canola. Due to its high
sulfur content it must be
limited in the ration.
To achieve an optimum
between quality and
quantity the proper stag-
ing is important. The rec-
ommended stages for
cutting for each crop are
shown in the table below.
These will only act as
guidelines when cutting
multi-stage crops but
should provide some as-
sistance.
Harvest stage of annual
crops for greenfeed or
silage
Pricing of greenfeed is
often based on what the
grain crop in that field
would have yielded plus a
factor to account for nutri-
ents in the stems, leaves
and chaff that normally
would have been returned
to the field. You may
wish to reduce this rev-
enue by the cost of har-
vesting. In a year like
2015 this would replace
income from selling as
grain plus cost of nutri-
ents removed but may not
reflect true value of the
feed harvested. Another
method that may be used
is to compare the feed
value of greenfeed to
other forages.
Harvest stage of annual crops for greenfeed or silage

Harvesting Annual Crops as
Greenfeed may be an Opportunity
John Ippolito
As the dry conditions
carry on in western
Saskatchewan this
summer and pasture con-
ditions continue to deteri-
orate, the reality of the
lack of feed for winter is
setting in. Livestock pro-
ducers find themselves
looking at expensive op-
tions for purchasing feed.
One alternative, albeit a
last choice, is to consider
selling part of their herd.
The Livestock Tax Defer-
ral provision allows farm-
ers who sell part of their
breeding herd due to
drought or excess mois-
ture and flood conditions
in designated regions to
defer a portion of sale pro-
ceeds to the following
year. To defer income,
the breeding herd must
have been reduced by at
least 15 per cent. Thirty
per cent of income from
net sales can be deferred
if the breeding herd has
been reduced by at least
15 per cent, but less than
30 per cent. Where the
herd has been reduced by
30 per cent or more, 90
per cent of income from
net sales can be deferred.
Proceeds from deferred
sales are included as in-
come in the next tax year,
when they may be at least
partially offset by the cost
of reacquiring breeding
animals. In the case of
consecutive years of
drought or excess mois-
ture and flood designa-
tion, producers may defer
sales income to the first
year in which the area is
no longer designated.
Each year, a list of desig-
nated regions prescribed
as drought and/or excess
moisture and flood re-
gions is announced. Des-
ignated areas can be
viewed on the Govern-
ment of Canada website –
www.agr.gc.ca. Drought
or excessive moisture and
flood regions are desig-
nated on the advice of the
Minister of Agriculture
and Agri-Food Canada to
the Minister of Finance.
A preliminary designation
can usually be done in
September if it appears
that the criteria will be
met. Since forage yield in-
formation is not final
until later in the year,
preliminary designation is
made primarily on the
basis of spring moisture
and summer rainfall, sup-
plemented with estimates
of forage yield. Assess-
ments of areas are re-
viewed in discussions
with federal and provin-
cial staff. Final decisions
and any needed adjust-
ments are made when all
forage yield information is
available, usually in De-
cember.

edge Centre at 1-866-457-

The Town of
Asquith and
community
kicked off Canada Day
with a wonderful, fun-
filled day on July 1st,
2015. The day started
off with bouncy castles,
kids games, contests,
face painting. A great
number of people came
out to enjoy the festivi-
ties and to watch the
children have a blast!!
A BBQ was held and
all who attended en-
joyed it as well! The
day culminated with
fireworks and Canada
Day cupcakes ~ a joy-
ous way to say Happy
Birthday, Canada!!!
Small Canadian flags
were handed out to all
participants, along
with Canadian flag
pins.
Willy Tran and Alisia
Beeds of the Asquith
General Store were in-
strumental in planning
and organizing the
events and making
sure that there were
volunteers to man the
different stations.
Willy was also the fire-
works expert who en-
sured that all were
mesmerized by a won-
derful show of lights
and sounds! Not
enough can be said
about the volunteerism
and the time spent on
the Canada Day festivi-
ties by these two!!
Thank you also goes
out to the other volun-
teers who did face
painting, BBQing, and
who assisted with the
games and bouncy cas-
tles.
A Canada Day Grant
from Canadian Her-
itage also helped to
make this day possible,
and all who planned
the Celebration thanks
the Federal Govern-
ment for their contribu-
tion.
After attending the United Church Dinner The-
ater in Harris, I had the stage bug. Why
couldn’t I try to start a group with Delisle
United Church? After many phone calls and reading of
plays, everything was in place. After the first few read-
ings, stage fright and other commitments took over and
as a result, the group didn’t continue. My thoughts of
the United Church Dinner Theater were a bust.
The following year the new recreation director, Mark
Westrom, put an announcement in the town newslet-
ter. I was beating down his office door before he could
open. I was so excited to think this dream of mine
might finally come to life.
A few months later everything was in place and prac-
ticing was in full swing. Everyone brought lumber,
wall board, furniture and props from our homes for our
makeshift stage. There were two performances that
year. The next year there was four performances, two
in Delisle, and one in Vanscoy on a Friday night and
Saturday the stage and set was dismantled, moved and
rebuilt in Pike Lake. For obvious reasons, this was only
done once.
There were plays performed in Delisle and Pike Lake
for the next number of years. A decision was made a
few years ago to not do the move to Pike Lake. Now
there are two theater groups to entertain you. Rural
Roots in Pike Lake and The Community Players in
Delisle. One can never have too much live theater.
Comedy has been our choice of play since the start, be-
cause, we have everyday life to deal with. Our man-
date is to provide a local evening out, with dinner and
entertainment. Moneys that we have raised have been
donated to Delisle Fire Dept., Wheatland Library, The
Arts Council, Donavon and Laura town halls, and
many more.
The Community Players has welcomed new members
over the years. Some participated as actors and others
worked behind the scenes. Our door is always open to
anyone wanting to be part of the group.
The Community Players performance of “Said the Spi-
der to the Spy” will be Nov.6, 7, and 8, 2015. Watch for
more information and posters.

Lake, Echo Valley and Good Spirit
Provincial Parks; please see our web-
site for the available dates.
Community programs:
Learn about Saskatchewan’s beauti-
ful provincial parks, camping gear,
and information about planning a
camping trip. Our family oriented
programs will provide you with the
information needed to head out and
explore Saskatchewan’s provincial
parks this summer! Our group pre-
sentations will take you through
some of the basics of camping such
as what gear you need and how to
plan a camping trip. Embrace The-
ater is also putting on enjoyable
plays about a family discovering the fun
of connecting to nature in
Saskatchewan’s parks, after the play
there is an opportunity for children to
learn how to use puppets and
Saskatchewan Parks will have a booth

On Monday July 20th, fami-
lies across Canada cele-
brated the first installment
of our Government’s boosted Uni-
versal Child Care Benefit (UCCB).
The newly increased child care ben-
efit pays almost $2000 every year
for each child under 6 and $720 for
each child aged 6 through 17. With
a retroactive payment from Janu-
ary 1, 2015, the Government trans-
ferred almost $3 billion to 3.8
million families on July 20th—the
largest single-day direct payment to
families in history.
Starting this past Monday, pay-
ments of $520 for each child under
6, and $420 for each child aged 6
through 17 will be delivered to fam-
ilies across Canada. That means a
family with two kids should have
received as much as $1,000 earlier
this week. Parents can spend this
money on anything they choose, in-
cluding child care services, back-to-
school supplies, sports activities
and much more, boosting the econ-
omy and creating jobs across
Canada.
About 3.8 million families will bene-
fit from the boosted UCCB—double
the number of families that previ-
ously qualified. While the majority
of families in Canada are waking
up to this welcomed boost to their
bank accounts, an estimated
200,000 families may have missed
out because they did not apply.
Families that are not currently re-
ceiving the UCCB, that have never
received the UCCB, or that have
never applied for the Canada Child
Tax Benefit and have children
under 18 in their care are encour-
aged to go to
www.canada.ca/taxsavings to find
out how to apply.
In addition to the boosted UCCB,
families recently received nearly $2
billion in tax refunds this spring
through the Family Tax Cut. The
Family Tax Cut allows couples with
children under 18 to split their in-
come and reduce their tax burden
by as much as $2,000. Payments to
families will also continue under
the Child Tax Benefit, which re-
mains unchanged.
Quick Facts
· All families with children will ben-
efit from the new Family Tax Cuts
and Benefits Plan, which includes
the Family Tax Cut, the increased
UCCB, the Child Care Expenses
Deduction and the Children’s Fit-
ness Tax Credit.
· The UCCB has increased to $160
per month from $100 per month for
each child under the age of 6, and a
new benefit of $60 per month has
been introduced for each child aged
6 through 17.
· Combined with tax relief and
other measures for families intro-
duced by the Government of
Canada since 2006, a typical family
of four can receive up to $6,600 in
tax relief and enhanced benefits in
2015.
· Approximately 1.2 million cheques
were sent to families across
Canada. The remaining UCCB pay-
ments were made via direct deposit,
for a total of more than 3.8 million
payments.
· Low- and middle-income families
will receive two-thirds of the overall
benefits provided by the Govern-
ment of Canada’s new family meas-
ures.
· The Family Tax Cut will eliminate
or significantly reduce the differ-
ence in the federal tax payable by a
one-earner couple relative to a two-
earner couple with a similar family
income.
On Monday, July 13th Delisle
Branch of the Wheatland Re-
gional Library was pleased to host
professional storyteller, Danica Lorer.
Danica loves to tell tales from around the
world, those passed on from other tellers
and those that have sprouted from the
seeds of her own imagination and experi-
ence. Her original and traditional stories
are woven together with simple tunes.
Danica lives at Langham and was chosen
to be this year’s summer performer for
Wheatland.
After a last minute change of venue
which required bringing the performance
indoors, Danica captured the attention of
a group of eager listeners. The audience
listened and participated in an hour long
performance by Danica.
Danica also performed at Wheatland
Branches in Kenaston, Langham,
Kindersley, Landis, Rosthern, Dalmeny,
Osler, Warman and Martensville.

Wildfires Highlight
Saskatchewan’s Strength
Saskatchewan’s greatest strength is
Saskatchewan people – people who work
hard and help others in need. At a time
of unprecedented wildfire activity in
northern Saskatchewan, it is these peo-
ple who have answered the call and
made a meaningful difference in the
lives of others.
When the threat of wildfires forced thou-
sands from their homes, municipal lead-
ers, volunteers, firefighters and
members of the military started working
day and night to provide for people, care
for their pets and work to protect homes,
businesses, vital infrastructure and com-
munities.
This is a difficult time for evacuees and
that’s why we’re doing what we can to
provide them with as much comfort and
peace of mind as possible. One of the
ways we’re doing that is by giving evac-
uees and affected businesses some relief
on their utility and insurance bills.
Thank you to the Red Cross, our munici-
pal leaders, and the many volunteers,
businesses and organizations who are
helping out across Saskatchewan. And
thank you to evacuees for their patience
through it all. The scale of the effort to
make people feel as comfortable as possi-
ble is truly remarkable and, from many
peoples strength, we will carry on.
Additional Free Fishing Weekend
Later This Summer
Due to the wildfire conditions in north-
ern areas of Saskatchewan, an addi-
tional free fishing opportunity will be
considered later this summer. A date
will be confirmed when the wildfire con-
ditions no longer pose a significant
threat and individuals have returned to
their homes.
Until further notice, anglers and others
are asked to avoid all wildfire-affected
lakes and communities in northern
Saskatchewan and to respect fire bans
in northern provincial forests and parks.
For more about the wildfire situation,
please visit saskatchewan.ca/fire.
Boosting Benefits for
Saskatchewan Seniors
Starting July 1, 2015, seniors across the
province who qualify for the Seniors In-
come Plan (SIP), Personal Care Home
Benefit (PCHB), or both, will notice a
boost to the monthly benefits they re-
ceive. With this latest increase, our gov-
ernment is fulfilling its four-year
commitment to increase supports and
improve the quality of life Saskatchewan
seniors in need.
Qualifying seniors will see the maximum
monthly benefit under the Seniors In-
come Plan boosted by $10 per month – to
$270 for single seniors and $235 for each
member of a senior couple. Seniors who
qualify for the maximum benefit will
now receive $2,160 more this year than
they did in 2007. They may also qualify
for additional health benefits, including:
one free eye examination every 12
months;
chiropractic services (to a maximum of
12 services per year);
a reduced Prescription Drug Plan
semi-annual deductible;
a home care subsidy; and
the free loan of lower-cost devices
available through the Saskatchewan
Aids to Independent Living Program.
800 seniors will also benefit from this
year’s increase to the Personal Care
Home Benefit, which assists seniors who
have limited income with the costs of liv-
ing in a personal care home. This latest
boost means the monthly income thresh-
old will move to $2,000, which repre-
sents a $50 increase per month. The
province has allocated $173,000 toward
this increase. The PCHB currently
makes up the difference between seniors’
income and the monthly income thresh-
old.
Saskatchewan People Set Another,
All-Time High Employment Record
According to the latest figures from Sta-
tistics Canada, Saskatchewan’s job mar-
ket is strong. The June unemployment
rate was 4.7 per cent (seasonally ad-
justed), down from 4.9 per cent in May
(seasonally adjusted), and once again the
lowest among all provinces.
June marked an all-time high for em-
ployment as well as the 21st consecutive
month that Saskatchewan had the low-
est unemployment rate in Canada. Na-
tionally, unemployment was 6.8 per cent
in June. Maintaining the lowest unem-
ployment rate is thanks to the hard
work of Saskatchewan people and our
strong, diversified economy that contin-
ues to create jobs.
One of the initiatives that helps main-
tain the lowest rate is our government's
investment in training for in-demand
jobs. This helps employers fill their
labour needs and helps Saskatchewan
people get good jobs that they can turn
into rewarding careers.
Construction Continues,
Consider the Costs of Speeding
A major paving project has officially
wrapped up on Highway 9 in the
Melville area, providing drivers with a
smoother, wider driving surface. In addi-
tion, the final set of passing lanes on
Highway 7 between Delisle and Rose-
town are now officially complete. A total
of four sets of passing lanes were built,
addressing increasing traffic volumes in
the area. There are also many new proj-
ects this week including some culvert in-
stallations and one bridge replacement.
A record $842 million highways budget
coupled with a short construction season
means an abundance of work is taking
place on our roads and highways this
summer. For that reason, SGI, the Min-
istry of Highways and Infrastructure
and provincial law enforcement are part-
nering to make work zones the focus of
July’s traffic safety spotlight. Base fines
for speeding in highway work zones are
triple that of a regular speeding ticket
when workers are present.
