The MCI Band is raising money to assist in covering the cost to attend MusicFest Nationals in Niagara Falls in May 2017.
By HILLARY CAMPBELL
innedosa Collegiate
Institutes band has
been invited to Music Fest
Nationals. The invitational
is for students who receive
a certain rating from adjudicators at the Optimist
Festival in Winnipeg every
February. Students who
are invited then proceed
to the national level of the
event. Th e band, which

consists of students from
grades 9 to 12, is taught by
Claire Powell.
The band received the
invitation in 2015, but already had a trip booked for
the time of the nationals,
and so postponed their trip
to this year. The nationals
will be from May 15th to
May 18th, 2017 and will be
in Niagara Falls. Accord-
ing to Powell, they have

not yet decided what they
will play at the music festival. Ive talked about it
a bit with the elevens and
twelves, since they are the
seniors they sometimes
have a better ear, and can
listen critically, and they
have some ideas, said
Powell.
The music selection is
always in the style of clas-
sic concert band which, according to Powell is from

the tradition of marching
band. It is the same instrumentation, except sitting
down. The style started to
appear around the 1900s,
and is continuing today.
There will be 28 students going on the trip in
May. They will be fl ying

Dr. Khandelwal Helps Foundation Over The Top

Minnedosa Achieves $50,000 Thomas Sill Challenge Goal
By HILLARY CAMPBELL
ou did it, Minnedosa!

With the generous donations from people and
organizations within the
community, the Minnedosa and District Foundation has reached its goal
of $50,000. The goal was
reached, in large part, due
to the extremely generous donation from Dr. Ajai
Khandelwal of $20,000.
For any amount over
$10,000, up to $50,000, the
Thomas Sill Foundation in
Winnipeg will contribute
an additional 50% to rural
community foundations.
In 2015, the Th omas
Sill foundation, which
primarily grants money
to Winnipeg initiatives,
challenged all Manitoba
rural Foundations to grow
their endowment funds.
Maxine Laws, of the
Minnedosa and District
Foundation told The Tribune that the foundation
had 18 months in which
to raise the $50,000, which
allowed them an additional $25,000 from the
Th omas Sill Foundation.
The Thomas Sill Foundation was helpful to the
Foundation. Laws noted
that, they didnt care how

we did it, and they gave us
$1,000 advertising budget to make this project
something the community would be aware of.
It was not important
to the Thomas Sill Foundation which fund the
money was donated to
within the Minnedosa
and District Foundation,
so long as it was donated.
This means that any funds
that were donated into
the Sean Cooper Memorial Scholarship Fund or
the Minnedosa and District Heritage Village Fund
were also eligible for the
50% increase.
Most of the funds that
the Minnedosa Foundation receives are obliged,
under an act of parliament, to remain invested, and only the interest
earned on these funds is
able to be spent. The benefi t of the grant given by
the Thomas Sill Foundation is that it is able to be
used immediately, and
is not locked in. So far,
the funds that have been
granted to the community
by Thomas Sill have been
put towards the hydraulic lift stretcher that was
needed by the EMS ser-

VD\7UHDW
vices. The Minnedosa and

District Foundation, along
with the Rotary Club, the
Health Auxiliary and the
Lions Club of Minnedosa
channelled funds through
the Thomas Sill challenge,
and were then able to receive the additional 50%
on the funds donated, to
put towards the stretcher.
The Health Auxiliary donated $5,000, the Rotary
Club donated $5,000, and
the Lions Club donated
$2,000. With this, an additional $6,000 was given by
Thomas Sill, so the $12,000
given was then leveraged
to become $18,000.
Laws
commented
that, we tried to make
people realize that the
timeliness of their donation had an impact on
how much it was. With
the Winnipeg Foundation increasing donations
made on philanthropy
day by 20%, and the additional 50% increase
through the Thomas Sill
Foundation, there is a 70%
increase on philanthropy
day. This means that each
dollar raised on philanthropy day would then be-

come $1.70, which in turn

means more money with
which our community can
be bettered.
Th e most amazing
donation that we want
to acknowledge over the
last 18 months has been
a $20,000 total donation
from Dr. Khandelwal and
his family, mentioned
Laws. Dr. Ajai Khandelwal and his son, Dr. Sanjay
Khandelwal from Langley, BC, have established
their own fund called
the Khandelwal Family
Fund, in which they donated the $20,000. Without this addition, the full
$25,000 from the Thomas
Sill Foundation would not
have been received.
The $25,000 was made
available to the Minnedosa and District Foundation in two lump sum payments. The fi rst $12,500
was put towards the EMS
stretcher among other
communityprojects.
Laws noted that, its been
really wonderful, the response of the community,

to someone saying this is

the year Im going to give
you $500 because I really
think that $500 is going
to bank so much more for
the community. Every bit
that is given is a help to the
foundation, whether it is a
small amount or a large
amount, they are appreciative. Laws added that,
we do really want to have
the town of Minnedosa
and its citizens know that
the Khandelwal Family
Fund of $20,000 is what
has pushed us towards our
goal of achieving $50,000,
because it would have
been impossible without
that, and in doing that
he has helped us access
funds that can be spent on
other projects in our community.
The Khandelwal Family Fund was initially
called the Dr. Khandelwal
Scholarship fund, and was
originally set up to fund a
scholarship to a graduation student at one of the
four highschools in the
Rolling River School Division. However, it has been
updated to fund two separate scholarships. One of
the scholarships, according to Laws, is going to
be awarded annually to
a student from Erickson
Collegiate because that is
where Dr. Khandelwals
practice originated, and it
is where Dr. Sanjay Khandelwal went to school.
Th is scholarship will be
in memory of Dr. Sanjay Khandelwals mother,
Indu Bala Khandelwal.
The other scholarship that
will be funded is a $500

scholarship to a student
that will be entering the
health field. This scholarship will rotate between
the other three schools
in the RRSD, Elton, Rivers and Minnedosa. Laws
commented that, the
one in Erickson obviously
was near and dear to Sanjays heart because it is in
memory of his mom, and
thats where he grew up.
Th e gratitude that Laws
and the Minnedosa and
District Foundation feel
towards Dr. Ajai Khandelwal is very apparent. Laws
said that, Hes quite a remarkable man. Hes quiet
and unassuming, and obviously education in his
mind is the way to the
future. Dr. Ajai Khandelwal had the specific goal
of funding education, and
according to Laws, there
is nothing better than investing in the kids.
It is through the hard
work of volunteers in the
Foundation, and the generous donations of people and organizations in
our area that Minnedosa
is able to remain the remarkable town that it is.

Fifty Years For Erickson Elementary

By HILLARY CAMPBELL
appy Birthday Erickson

Elementary
School! On Tuesday, November 15th, the school
celebrated its 50th anniversary. Erickson Elementary opened in 1966 with
over 200 students, and is
alive and well today! The
school celebrated with
an assembly, in which
members of the community were also welcomed.
Wally Yanchycki, Erickson
Elementarys first principal also attended the ceremony.
The assembly started
at 1:45 p.m., and there were
items from the time capsule on display on tables.
Th e time capsule, which
first had items placed in it
in 1966, was then opened
again in 1991, and items
were added from that year.
From 1966, there were
items like a 1966 dollar
coin, photos of the school,
photos of the previous
school that was in the
parking lot, the building
records, pictures of the
staff and students from the
year, an enrollment list,
newspaper articles, a Dick
and Jane reader, and a
Manitoba flag. From 1991,
there was a village of Erickson book and photos from
every class that was at the
school.
Now,
another
25
years have passed and the
time capsule was again
opened, and items were
added from 2016. According to Laurie Bachewich,
Principal of Erickson Elementary, items added to
the capsule included photos of iPhones and iPads,
pictures of smartboards,
Loonies and Toonies, the
words and music to the
Husky Song, a picture of

song for staff and students at Erickson Elementary.
the new Husky Logo, a picture of the schools jersey,
newspaper clippings from
this year, an album with
every class picture and the
staff in it, the schools plan,
and the code of conduct.
Every one of the items
that was placed in the
time capsule were ideas
from staff and students,
said Bachewich. She also
added that she was going
to have a struggle trying to
fit everything into the time
capsule.
Bachewich noted that,
when opening the time
capsule, it was interesting
to see pictures of the teachers and the kids. She attended Erickson Elementary as a child, and while
the photos were from before her time, she did recognize some of the teachers from the schools first
year. She also commented
on the shift in materials
used over the years, as well
as the change in technology, every program that

we offer is different, it has

evolved over time, and I
would like to believe for
the betterment of the kids.
Bachewich also discussed the shift that has
been made in recognizing that they are on Treaty
land, and that there is
work to be done around
aboriginal and indigenous
issues within the school,
and we are working very
hard on that, to focus on
diversity and celebrate di-
versity, bringing to light

the change in attitudes
over the past 50 years.
During the birthday
celebration, there was a
blessing done, in two separate languages, one was in
Ojibway and one was in
English. There was also a
drummer who came from
Rolling River First Nations,
Derek McKay. McKay is
the parent of a student at
Erickson Elementary, and
is a part of the Standing Ea-
gle Drum Group that is part

of Rolling River. According
to Bachewich, the drum
group often comes out to
school events to play for the
kids. During the celebration, Mckay performed an
honour song for the school,
which sends good greetings
and honours the building
and students. Hes got a
beautiful voice and does a
very good job, said Bachewich.
The children also per-
formed two songs during

the celebration. One was
the school song, The Husky
Song, which was written by
the schools music teacher,
Richard Graham, and put
to the music of a Sharon,
Lois and Bram song. The
other was Yellow Submarine, by The Beatles, which
the students had practiced,
because it was released in
1966, and gave the students
an idea of what music was
like when the school first
opened.
The celebration ended
with cake and refreshments for all in attendance.
There was a beautifi ul cake
with the words Happy
Birthday E.E.S., 50 years,
1966-2016, written in blue
icing. Community members were then invited to
look through the items
from the time capsule.
This school has an incredible group of teachers
and students and parents,
and they work very hard,
and they were all very excited about the opening of the
time capsule, said Bachewich. Everybody pitched
in and helped, and they all
deserve a lot of credit.
The Tribune would like
to wish Erickson Elementary another successful 50
years!

he best part of my job is the opportunity to sit

down with people and hear their stories. The
worst part of my job is the opportunity to sit down
with people and hear their stories. You see, as a newcomer to the community there is much about the
anecdotal history of this area that I will not find anywhere in the files. It is great to fill in the gaps of my
own wealth of knowledge, but you can never be sure
what personal history is attached to each of the tales
being shared and what pieces are being left out.
Admittedly, one of my greatest weaknesses is
that I am very trusting. As I approach my interactions
with others objectively, I trust that they are doing the
same. Of course, in the absence of getting it in writing, I often find that I need to do some investigation
to determine if there is credence to what has been
shared. Has an injustice been committed? Are there
missed opportunities? Do we need to kick some ass
within our own organization to help our rate payers
achieve their goals? In some ways, my work includes
a little bit of myth busting. I dont rely on coffee shop
talk. If the folks around me dont know the answer,
I will reach out directly to the people who have the
right information.
For example, I have heard that a decision made
years ago to tear down the Lyric Theatre rather than
investigate opportunities to have it restored had
landed us in disfavour with Izzy Asper. Asper owned
Dear community,
he RRFA group in Minnedosa is now a committee of three yes, there are only three of us who
are going to try and host this festival once again. As
Rivers feel they are no longer able to so, it has become the sole responsibility of Minnedosas committee of three, none of whom have children in the
festival (and one of us never did). It is becoming
frustrating and tiring but we soldier on because we
believe this to be a worthwhile event for the children
and adults who participate in it. We are just beginning preparations for our upcoming festival, which
will be held March 2017. The dance component will
be held in Rivers as this is where the majority of
dancers come from. All other components will be
held here in Minnedosa. We are looking forward to
another successful festival, but that will be very difficult for us to do without your help.
If you have a child who plays the piano, sings, is
in a choir, plays an instrument, presents a speech,
or you are just interested in getting involved with
our group, please, give us a call. We have a lot of
little jobs that need doing so it wouldnt be overwhelming or terribly time consuming. If you live
in Minnedosa, Rapid City, Rivers, Erickson or anywhere in the area and would like to help us out, give
us a call.
If you want to see this festival continue in our
community, please give us a call. WE NEED YOU!

the Lyric and the word on the street was that he was
so angry with the decision to demolish that any application Minnedosa has put forward to the Asper
Foundation was automatically dismissed. I reached
out to the Asper family to share the story Id heard
and found out that this tale is false. If we have been
excluded from award of any Asper Foundation grants
it may instead be because of the competitive field of
requests or the mismatch of criteria based on our
ask.
What other misinformation is fl oating about
the community related to our action or inaction on
any number of initiatives? How much truth is there
to the rumour that the Super 8 Hotel which is now
the Bay Hill Inn at Neepawa had originally wanted
to build here west of Uncle Toms? Is it true that the
deal soured because of a jurisdictional issue about
who should accommodate the upgrade of water lines
to the site to secure that deal? Is it true that we had
been in consideration for what has now become the
Sandhills Casino? Anecdotally, the story goes that
local leaders didnt want to attract that kind of element to the community. Could that be true? We
dont want to attract affl uent retirees with time on
their hands and ample disposable income?
Ill continue to chip away at the tales that point to
a community that has failed to help itself out in relation to development. We may reveal some unpleasant truths about ourselves in the process, or we may
find that the facts simply dont support the popular
theories about where things have landed over the
years.

whether the guide is about

good science or just good
politics.
Why else would the
government be surveying
people as to what should
go into the guide? The sole
purpose of a survey is to
gauge public opinion. If
this were truly all about creating the optimal healthy
diet, why would the government care what average
people think?
If the old guide (as
spun by lobbyists) was
ineff ective and the new
guide (also as spun by lobbyists) wont be read by
anyone outside of an elementary school, why is the
government spending so
much money on it?
And in an age of information at our fingertips,
why do we need the government to tell us what to eat?
The government doesnt tell
us how to dress, when to exercise or how to cut our hair
(at least it doesnt ... yet).
Th e Canada Food
Guide may have once filled
a role. Today its a relic, and
an expensive one at that.

100 Attend Hockey Initiation Jamboree

By HILLARY CAMPBELL
n Saturday, November 12th, there was a

Hockey Initiation Program
(HIP) Jamboree at the
Minnedosa Arena. Parents
brought their kids to the
arena for the event, which
began at 10 a.m., and ran
until about 4 p.m. Ken
Morrice, the primary organizer of the event told The
Tribune that there were
about 100 children who
attended, along with their
parents.
The purpose of the
day, according to Morrice, was simple: for
kids to have fun playing
hockey.
The mandate
came from all the way up
to Hockey Canada, and
trickled down to Hockey
Manitoba, who then put
it out to the various local communities hockey
associations.
Attending
the Minnedosa session

were seven different rural hockey associations,
which were Minnedosa,
Hamiota,
Strathclair,
Onanole, Rossburn (with
two groups), Birtle and
Neepawa. Birtle and Hamiota will also each host
the one day session before Christmas, which the
Minnedosa
association
plans to support with their
attendance as well. Morrice was happy to see the
good representation of the
association attending the
event.
The idea was put to
each region, including our
Yellowhead region. It was
then discussed at the fall
meeting where Dan Johnson (director) and Morrice
discussed the idea, and
decided to go ahead with
it. Another benefit to the
event is that it provided
sessions for parents to at-

tend, which discussed the

promotion of long-term
player development. This
includes the importance
of ensuring that, while
playing hockey, children
are able to have fun.
We are noticing in
Canada that there are less
kids signing up for hockey,
or staying in the program,
commented Morrice. It is
for this reason that during the event, the children
were separated into three
groups, the eagles, the
bears and the sharks, and
played games on modified
ice. The event is all about
promoting the fun of
hockey for kids at a young
age. The benefit to modifying the ice to smaller ice
games is that, according to
Morrice, it makes it more
fun for the kids, it increases touches, challenges the
stronger ones and allows
the weaker ones to benefit and get out there, and
feel like theyre part of the
team.
The event, which is
open to both girls and
boys, started with 25 minutes of player development. This included working with the children on
skating, edges, touching
the puck and shooting the
puck, which helped them
learn the fundamentals
of hockey. After the development segment, they
played mini games on the
modified ice, where kids

get to try out their newly
developed skills.
The event promotes
long-term player development, which steers
kids and parents away
from pushing through
and hammering hard, its
about making sure these
kids have fun, and still
have fun when theyre my
age said Morrice. With
hockey becoming more
serious at younger ages,
and kids playing the sport
year round, people are noticing sports related injuries in people of younger
ages. Morrice cited the
Wheat Kings Patrick Nolan as an example, who he
said sustained a sports related hernia injury which
required surgery. Morrice noted that, stuff like

that is happening with
the younger ages, which
shouldnt happen, because they concentrate so
much on one sport that
their muscles dont know
how to do anything else.
Morrice has been going to Winnipeg for the
last three years for the season opener, and has been
becoming more versed in
the concept of long-term
player development. He
told The Tribune that they
are getting more positive
responses now than they
had in previous years, everybody is here to listen
and to buy into the system. In addition to the
fun, small-ice games, Willie from the Wheat Kings

and Buzz from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers also
attended the session, and
students from MCI volunteered their time to organize different activities for
kids while they were off
the ice.
Morrice felt the day
was a success, and was
happy with the number
of attendees to the event.
Next year, he said, it
would be nice to see other
groups pick it up, I think
this is a nice format for the
HIP. He also noted that
next year, it is possible
that the parent sessions
may not be necessary.

An Evening of Music With Duo Fortin-Poirier

By HILLARY CAMPBELL
n November 15th, a
fortunate group of
Minnedosas
residents
were regaled with the
sweet sounds of the Duo
Fortin-Poirier. The piano
duo came to Minnedosa
from Quebec. Minnedosa
was their last stop on the
Prairie Debut tour. The
crowd who attended the
evening ranged in age
from toddlers onwards.
The concert was put on as a
group of four shows by Expressions, the Minnedosa
Performing Arts Committee. The concert was held
at the Minnedosa United
Church, which gave the
concert the air of elegance
that it deserved. The show
lasted about two hours,
and the crowd remained
attentive throughout.
The Duo is made up of
Amlie Fortin and MarieChristine Poirier. The two
have each won awards for
their talent on the piano
individually, but formed
their duo in 2005. The style

of their show is unique,
and they were very engaged with the crowd at
the United Church, making people laugh between
sets. Switching sides of the
piano between songs, it
was apparent that the pair
has immense talent. They
each took a side of the piano during a song, however,
at times the pairs hands
would cross each other,
and the crowd could see
the planning and choreography that their performances require.
Some of the pieces
performed were very serious, and gave the crowd
sadness and longing with
regards to memories,
whereas others were ragtime numbers, and had a
more playful and happy
tone to them. The two
came on stage, wearing
beautiful black gowns with
lace panels, and told the
crowd about the songs
they chose, and why they
chose them.
Their program, One

Piano, Four-Hands, involved the two talented
pianists playing simultaneously on the same
piano. This was the duos
first time in Minnedosa,
and the prairie region, and
they were in town for two
nights. During their free
time in the area they visited the beach, noting that
they are both from small
towns in Quebec, so they
enjoy coming to towns like
Minnedosa.
Their music selection
was a carefully chosen list
of musical pieces from
different composers. The
pieces chosen all had to
do with memories, as the
evenings show was called
Mmoires. According to
the duo, there is a lot of
repertoire for piano duets.
The pieces chosen ranged
from the 1840s to around
the 1990s, and were composed all over the world.
The two have been
away from their home in
Montreal for some time,

but noted that, everyone

is so warm and welcoming that we dont miss too
much from home, but
added that it will be nice
to head home after such a
long time away.
However, the duo is
no stranger to travel. Since
they formed as a duo in
2005, while they were
studying at the Universit

de Montral, the two have
given many concerts in
Canada and abroad. They
have won many grants,
including the Office Franco-Qubcois pour la Jeuness, the Conseil des Artes
et Lettres du Qubec, the
Canada Council for the
Arts, and also first prize at
the Concours de Musique

Clermon-Ppin,
among
others. In 2013, they won
second prize at the Roma
International Piano Competition in Italy. Being Canadian and international
award winners, Minnedosa was extremely lucky to
have these talented women take their stage.

The Latest Donations For The Primary Care Centre

By HILLARY CAMPBELL
he Dr. Ajai Khandelwal Primary Care Centre has been honoured

with another donation.
The Little River Game and
Fish Association donated
$5,000 to the Primary Care
Centre. Mo Burnell, secretary and Bob Graham,
President, presented the
cheque to John Mendrikis
of the Primary Care Centres board on November
10th.
Graham commented
that he thought it was important to donate to the
Primary Care Centre because, we are all going to
use it someday. Th
e Little
River Game and Fish Association currently has
91 members and Burnell
told The Tribune that, everyone was pretty well in

agreement. Such a large
group being in total agreement about the necessity of the new Primary
Care Centre is very telling
about the level of community spirit in the group.
They used to be known as
the Minnedosa Wildlife
Association, but in 1990
changed to their current
name.
Th e generous donation of the group is, in
large part, due to the success of the Buck Nights
that are held by the group.
This year, the Buck Night
will be held on December
2nd. At the Buck Night,
there will be ticket sales
for a Kubota, and with
these sales, the group will
be able to continue to
help their community in
diff erent ways. This year,
proceeds will be going to
the Waves of Hope for an
ultrasound in Brandon, to
allow cancer patients to
detect cancer earlier.
Other projects that the
group has been involved
with include the care of
Anton Lake, the fish ladder at the Minnedosa
beach, built docks for kids
to fish off of at the Heritage Village, and they have
put money into the golf
course. We are a small
community, said Burnell,
not everything pertains
to the wildlife, and we live
in town, so we are part of
town.

Minnedosa Xi Theta Sorority
(L-R) Ray Morgan, John Mendrikis and Karen Parenteau.

By HILLARY CAMPBELL
n Thursday, November 10th, John Mendrikis met with Karen Parenteau of the Minnedosa
Xi Th eta chapter of the
Beta Sigma Th
iSorority.
The reason for the meeting was a donation of
$1,000 towards the Dr. Ajai
Khandelwal Primary Care
Centre.
We felt it was a very
necessary thing in our
community and we wanted to show our support,
said Parenteau. The sorority is not a profit organization, and because of
this, everything that they
raise goes back into the
community.
Currently,
the Minnedosa chapter

of the sorority has 12 or
13 members, noted Parenteau. While this group
is small, they are mighty,
and a donation of $1,000
is no small feat.
The Minnedosa chapter of the sorority has existed for more than 50
years. It provides ladies
of any profession with
the chance for an evening
outing where they are
able to socialize with each
other, learn about their
country and others. According to Parenteau, as
a little benefit, sometimes
we are able to help others
as well.
John
Mendrikis,
board member for the Pri-
mary Care Centre, its an

ever boiling pot, and its
always increasing. They
are still working towards
reaching their goal by the
end of 2016. With each
donation that goal becomes more within reach.
Mendrikis added that with
the year end approaching,
for a lot of people that
push to donate a certain
amount by the years end,
they have the choice to do
it with us. It is certainly
a worthy destination for
year-end funds. Mendrikis concluded the interview with the optimistic
comment that, its coming from far and wide.

such dedicated professionals. Many thanks to Pastor Murray
Carter for his comforting words at the graveside service and to
Nathan White of Minnedosa Funeral Service for his compassionate guidance. For the many acts of kindness from relatives

YOUR
CLIENTELE
With heavy hearts we announce

the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather and
great-grandfather.
Wilfred
passed away peacefully at the
Erickson Personal Care Home
with family at his side.
Wilfred was born September
25th, 1930 in Erickson, MB to
Percy and Frances May Vaughan.
He married Veronica Zatylny on
November 4th, 1957 and they had
six children. He started out farming
with horses on the original homestead
quarter and built a sizable farming operation with Veronica and
his eldest son Donnie. Except for a brief time living in Rackham as a boy, Wilfred enjoyed life on the farm until poor health
forced him to leave his home in 2015. He would say,if you find
something you love to do it will not seem like work. He truly
loved to farm.
Wilfred also held numerous other jobs in the community. In
Rackham, he was a grain buyer and also worked in the post office. He worked as a mechanic in Erickson. He drove a school
bus for the Rolling River School Division from 1978-1995 and
was a councillor for the Harrison Municipality from 1986-1998.
During a trip to Peoria, Illinois through municipal work Wilfred
shared an elevator with Johnny Cash; he always enjoyed sharing this story.
Wilfred will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 59 years,
Veronica, children; Donnie (Donna), Darlene (Stafford), Della
(Steve), Darrin (Sherry) and Daidre (Ian); grandchildren; Derrick (Natalie), Devin (Nicole), Cori (Steve), Jennifer (Richard),
Stephan, Mikaela (Sam), Renee, Austin, Kendall and Madeline,
great-grandchildren; Carter, Aria, Jada, Jessica, Abigail, Hanna,
Taylor and Ryan.
He was pre-deceased by son Darrell (2013), great-grandson
Matthew (2004), parents Percy (1991) and Frances May (1976),
sisters Violet (1985) and Lillian (2003), brothers Tom (1944) and
John (1984), sister-in-law Elizabeth (2016) and several cousins,
nieces and a nephew.
A funeral service will be held Saturday, November 26th, 2016
at 1:00 p.m. at the Minnedosa Funeral Service Chapel. A light
lunch will follow at the Erickson Legion Hall. The family will
then attend a private burial at the Erickson Cemetery. In lieu
of flowers, the family suggests donations be made to Erickson
Personal Care Home Activity Department.
Minnedosa Funeral Service in care of arrangements.
EDNA LILLIAN STRAHL
SEPTEMBER 9TH, 1917 NOVEMBER 15TH, 2016
Edna Lillian Strahl peacefully passed away at the Minnedosa Personal Care Home, at the age of 99 years. She was born
in the RM of Odanah, the youngest of eight children of Gustav
and Hilda Peterson.
Love and fond memories will live on in the hearts of her
daughters Lillian Wagner and Elaine (Marc) Chisholm, five
grandchildren, four great grandchildren, nephews, nieces and
friends. Edna was predeceased by her parents, siblings and her
husband Inar in 1960.
A private graveside service was held on Friday, November
18th officiated by Pastor Murray Carter. A reception followed
where fellowship and memories of Edna were shared.
If so desired memorial gifts can be made to the Minnedosa
PCH or a charity of ones choice.
Minnedosa Funeral Service was in care of arrangements.
DONT FORGET
For I reckon that the sufferings

of this present time
are not worthy
to be compared with the glory
which shall be revealed in us.

Carbon Tax Will Leave Industries

Competitively Disadvantaged
OBITUARIES
MARY ZATYLNY (nee BOYKO)
JANUARY 5TH, 1924 NOVEMBER 2ND, 2016
Mary Zatylny, with her family by her side in Erickson
District Health Centre, Erickson, MB entered into rest peacefully
and quietly at the age of 92.
Mary was born at the family farm in the R.M. of Clanwilliam, the oldest of five children. She attended school at Hilltop
completing grade eight. She then left school to work as a nanny
and housekeeper for the Oman family, who lived nearby. She
married Michael Zatylny on July 31st, 1943. They started their
married life together living on a farm south of Erickson, before
moving to the Zatylny family farm in 1953. While on the farm they
raised a family of three, Edward, Sylvia and Wayne. They stayed on the
family farm until October of 1990, when they moved into Erickson.
Mary filled her days with cooking, baking, planting a huge garden
which she canned and preserved in the fall, but her passion was quilting. She always made sure
that her grandchildren were blessed with a quilt of their own. She was known around the area for
her wonderful work and could always be counted on if a raffle was in need of a prize.
St. Anthonys Roman Catholic Church was an important part of Marys life and she never
hesitated to help. For years she volunteered in the kitchen of the Jackfish Hall for numerous functions.
Mary was a true lover of a good deal, wandering through an assortment of garage sales, flea
markets and auction sales.
Mary was predeceased by her parents John and Annie Boyko (Kopeechuk), her husband in
1999 and sister Christine Zwarich in 2011.
She is survived and remembered by her children: son Edward (Sonia), grandchildren
Angela, Lisa (Chris) Burton, and Mark; daughter Sylvia (Donald) Kostiw, grandchildren Sonia
(Michael) Barrett, Garth (Nonie) Kostiw, Michelle (Brent) McKee; son Wayne (Christie), grandchildren Shelby and Samara; as well as seven great grandchildren. She is also survived by her
sister, Florence Shewchuk, and brothers Victor Boyko and Elmer Boyko and numerous nieces
and nephews.
The funeral service was held Saturday, November 5th, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Judes Roman
Catholic Church, Erickson, MB with Fr. James Ahaneku officiating, interment followed in St. Anthonys Cemetery, Jackfish, MB. Pallbearers were her grandchildren, Mark Zatylny, Shelby Zatylny, Samara Zatylny, Angela Zatylny, Michelle McKee and Garth Kostiw. Cross bearer was Lisa
Burton.
Minnedosa Funeral Service was in care of arrangements.

By ROBERT SOPUCK
orcing a carbon tax on

Canadians will leave
our industries at a competitive
disadvantage
and is bound to hurt our
economy. President-elect
Donald Trump has made
it clear that carbon tax
will not be an option in
the United States. Despite
this, the Canadian Liberal
government continues to
naively believe that Canadian companies will remain globally competitive
with our U.S. competitors
if we implement a carbon
tax.
Even though Canada
emits only 1.6 per cent of
the worlds carbon emissions, this Liberal Government is dead set on imposing this artificial and
unnecessary strain on our
economy and our global
competitiveness.
President-elect Trump
has also indicated he plans
to lower the United States
federal business tax in order to attract investment
and grow U.S. companies.
Our previous Conservative
Government lowered the
corporate business rate to
15 per cent, which provided our companies an advantage over the U.S. and
much of the world. Now is

not the time to give up our
advantage.
Looking around the
world, it is easy to see that
carbon taxes are not viable solutions. Australia
repealed theirs in 2014
due to concerns that it was
harming their economy.
In recent weeks France
has abandoned plans for
ongoing carbon taxes in
Paris. The United States
and China are firmly opposed to even considering
the possibility of their own
tax on CO2 emissions. Yet
the Liberals forge ahead
with their high tax plan for
Canada.
Meanwhile in British Columbia, greenhouse
gas emissions have actually increased each year
since 2009 despite having
a carbon tax. On top of
that, businesses that were
pursuing opportunities in
the province have chosen
to look elsewhere. For example, Edmonton-based
HiTest Sand Inc. cited
higher electricity prices
as one of the reasons they
chose to build a silicon
smelter in Washington
state, rather than Golden,
B.C.
Looking closer to
home, our local agriculture
industry will be negatively

impacted if Manitoba is
forced to implement a
carbon tax. Some experts
say that the additional tax
could cost farmers up to
$6 per acre. This cost is
not just absorbed by the
producer, rather it will be
passed on to national/
international buyers and
then to consumers. Just
like you do not want to be
paying more at the gas station or grocery store, our
trade partners do not want
to spend more here either.
Canada needs an environmental plan that allows us to reduce greenhouse
gas
emissions
and keep our industries
globally competitive. It is
clear that a carbon tax will
not do that. It is time for
this Liberal government to
realize that this plan will
not impact global emissions, and will only cause
job losses and hurt our
economy.

NEWDALE NEWS
By RAVENS GLEN WI
ed like to send congratulations to Graham and Shirley Switzer

of Brandon on the celebration of their 60th Anniversary on November 15th.
We all wish you many
more! Also during this past
week Graham was moved
from the Assiniboine Hospital to Valley View Centre
and we hope he settles in
fine.
Best wishes to Bob
Drysdale who is currently
in the Assiniboine Hospital receiving physio treatment. Bob began his working career in the meat shop
of Reids Store and married one of our local gals,
Marge Marks. They farmed
for many years and raised
their family in the Brookdale area before retiring to
Brandon several years ago.

Best wishes from all your

Newdale friends Bob.
Last
Sunday
our
Church congregation was
pleased to welcome Emma
Jean Koscilney and Mom
Karen, who gave a very interesting power point presentation about her two
week science trip on the
ice breaker Amundsen, in
the Arctic. Most of their
experiments dealt with
climate variations, sea ice
conditions and collecting
sea plankton and small
crustaceans that larger fish
feed on, checking for mercury in particular. Approximately forty plus students,
research scientists and
crew members from across
Canada were aboard. The
ship itself covers the entire
Northwest Passage returning to Quebec by the end of
fall, with different groups
conducting research proj-
ects. This is another great

experience for the students of Strathclair School
to apply for.
Councillors Doreen
Stapleton and Bruce Dalgarno and R.M. Staff attended the Municipal
Convention last week in
Winnipeg and Carol Dalgarno attended the Farm
Womens Conference in
Portage as a member of the
organizing board.
Several ladies from
town enjoyed the craft sale
in Shoal Lake November
19th, put on yearly by the
Sorority ladies. This is always a wonderful place
to begin your Christmas
shopping or pick up some
Christmas baking!
Jackfi sh Hall hosted a
terrifi c supper and dance
on November 19th with all
ages enjoying some very
delicious food and danc-
ing to the terrific old-time

music. The fl oor was full
all evening. On November
20th several ladies from
town tried their luck at the
turkey bingo held in the
Sandy Lake Hall.
Several friends and
relatives from Newdale
attended the 50th Anniversary tea for Nelson and
Wilma Shewfelt on November 12th (the actual
date) in Minnedosa. Most
of their families were home
to celebrate with them and
we wish them many more
happy years!
Best wishes to Margaret Heise of Hamiota who
is waiting to move into Lilac Lodge. Margaret was
born and raised in Newdale, has a brother Glen
and was the daughter of
Pete and Vida Coutts. We
all wish you well in your
new home Margaret.

They will also be hosting a brunch at the golf
course and they will receive a portion of the funds
raised from each person. Additionally, the band has
their Winterfest coming up on December 1st.
The nationals, according to Powell, do not have
winners and losers, but rather, it is more just that
you go, you perform, you do your best, and you get
feedback. Groups will also have the opportunity to
meet with an adjudicator afterwards, who will work
with them on the piece of music they performed, to
provide them with constructive comments on how to
improve. There is also someone who will be recording
comments while students are playing, so students will
have real-time comments to listen to, in order to pick
out areas of improvement.
The band consists of clarinets, fl utes, saxophones,
trumpets, trombones, French horn, euphonium, and
percussion. The group of dedicated students practice
every Wednesday during their lunch hour, and most
of them have been playing instruments since they
were in the 6th grade. Powell is very excited for her
students, and noted that, the fact that it is something
that is invitational, rather than something you just
go to, its a big deal, they are going to represent their
community on a national level, which is a once-in-alifetime opportunity for these kids.
