Hometown Boys Releasing Album At RFM

The Crook brothers
father, Tom, was the long-
time promoter for the lo-
cal music festival, and was
in charge of booking the
bands for RFM, but re-
cently stepped down from
the position. Trevor recalls
going to the Minnedosa
August long weekend mu-
sic festival back in 1996,
when it all started as Clas-
sic Rock. They were also
there through its years as
Little River Rockfest and
most recently, Rockin the
Fields. The Minnedosa fes-
tival truly is as much a part
of this band, as this band
is a part of the festival and
the community.
During his stay in
town, Trevor noted that
he has managed to head
out to the beach, and en-
joy some of the many
things Minnedosa has to
offer during the summer
months. If you do not take
in any other part of RFM
2017, be sure to head out
to the festival grounds
tonight, to close out the
night at the second stage
and celebrate the album
release for Johnson Crook,
or as Trevor referred to it,

Johnson Crook.
Trevor Crook, who ar-
rived home in Minnedosa
last Saturday, spent the
week enjoying a reunion
with his family, who still
live in Minnedosa. The rest
of the band, including his
brother, Nathan, arrived
yesterday. Alongside the
two Crook brothers, who
play the drums (Trevor)
and lead guitar (Nathan),
the rest of the band in-
cludes Noel Johnson, who
plays the rhythm guitar
and does the vocals for
the group, and Jared Craig,
who plays bass and shares
in the vocals.
The group met in To-
ronto nearly three years
ago, through a Toronto-
based management com-

Rockin Weekend
Rock music fans from near and far gather in our
community this long weekend for the annual Rockin the
Fields of Minnedosa festival. A fantastic line-up of musi-
cal acts are scheduled with a special hometown highlight
being an album release party for the band Johnson Crook
which includes former Minnedosans, Trevor and Nathan
Crook. Heres hoping everyone has a safe and memora-
ble rockin long weekend in Manitobas Valley Paradise!
Quiet on the western front
Minnedosas August long weekend will be diff erent
for local rodeo fans this year as for the first-time since
2004, the local Ag grounds will not see any rodeo action.
Due to some financial challenges last year, the local rodeo
committee will be taking a break this year but we hope to
see those challenges overcome and the return of rodeo
action in the years ahead. Minnedosa Rodeo brought a
number of rodeo competitors and spectators to our com-
munity through its Heartland Rodeo show and Manitoba
High School Rodeo. We will definitely miss seeing rodeo
action this weekend!
Hydro Rate Go Up.
Manitoba Hydros current total debt is reported at
$16.4 billion and is expected to increase by another $8
billion in the next five years. On Monday, the Manitoba
Public Utilities Board approved a 3.36 percent interim
rate increase for the utility effective August 1st. Hydro had
originally asked for a 7.9 percent increase this August fol-
lowed by another 7.9 percent increase next August. The
reasoning for the increase is stated as revenue needed to
invest in replacing and upgrading aging infrastructure.
Manitoba Hydro continues to face financial diffi culties
even though its recently released annual report for the
fiscal year ending March 31st, 2017 shows a net income
of $71 million. This fi gure is up $22 million from 2015
2016. Included in the total net income is $53 million from
the electricity sector, $4 million from the natural gas sec-
tor, $11 million from subsidiaries and $3 million related
to adjustments in accounting policies between electric
and gas operations related to the gas metre exchange
program.

100 Years Of Federal Income Tax
Canadians have paid $4.9 trillion in income tax since 1917
Canadian Taxpayers Federation
T he Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) noted
that the proposal for a temporary War Tax Upon
Incomes (which later became the Income Tax Act)
was fi rst introduced in the House of Commons by
Conservative Finance Minister Sir William Thomas
White 100 years ago on July 25, 1917.
Sir White brought in the income tax to pay for
the cost of World War I but unfortunately Canadians
have been stuck with it ever since,said CTF Federal
Director Aaron Wudrick. His original 11-page law
with a four per cent tax rate has ballooned into to-
days 3,100-page behemoth.
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation has crunched
the numbers and Canadians have paid a cumulative
$4.9 trillion in federal income taxes over the past 100
years. To put this into context, this amount in $100
bills laid end to end would circle the earth at the
equator 186 times.
Records of House of Commons debates from 1917
show Sir Whites fear that his war tax would become ing so permanent as a temporary tax, and Canadians
permanent a fear which ultimately came to pass. By still paying a war tax for a war that ended 99 years
1948 the Income Tax Act had grown to 88 pages, and ago is a clear example, said Wudrick. Canadians
by 1970 many argued it had become too complicated should bear this $4.9 trillion number in mind every

new Telehealth ser-
vice went live. What does
this mean for the commu-
nity? It means that MB
Telehealth uses a secure
link to provide videocon-
ferencing for healthcare
services, said Donna
Vaughan, a representative
for the project.
Not only does it pro-
vide people with access to
their healthcare answers at
their fingertips, it also pro-
vides them with continu-
ing education, meetings
and family visits between
communities across Mani-
toba. It allows you to see
and talk to a health care
provider on a television
screen, Vaughan said,
the person on the other
end will also be able to see,
hear and talk to you.
The Telehealth service
is located in the Erickson
and District Health Facil-
ity. It is a mobile device
that may be hooked up to
three existing rooms, de-
pending on user necessity.
Th e telehealth ser-
vice employs two existing
employees, who will take
turns booking appoint-
ments through a patients
health care provider.
According to Vaughan,
the Telehealth service is
important for the commu-
nity because it improves
access to health services
that may not be available
in our community. It may
reduce time spent away
from home and work. She
also cited reduced stress
levels, reduced travel time
and costs as benefits of the

Farmers Market In Full Swing
By HILLARY MILLER
T he 2017 season of the
Farmers Market in
Minnedosa has been up
and running since June
23rd, and it is still going
strong. This Friday will
mark the seventh market
of the season at the Cov-
enant Church parking lot
at the corner of Highway
#16A and 4th Avenue S.W.
Market Organizer, Ni-
cole Loewen, noted that
this year there are many
vendors who have booked
tables, but that some
people are finding that it
may not work with their
schedules. The market
usually sees between six
and twelve vendors with
various products to sell.
Loewen also commented
that due to weather, some
of the gardens have been
producing later than nor-
mal, leaving market goers
craving home-grown veg-
etables for some time.
However, now that we
are mid-way through sum-
mer, we are in fully swing with this goal, by hosting a

for produce, Loewen said,
adding that about half of
the vendors at the mar-
ket are produce vendors.
There might be an abun-
dance of produce up for
grabs, but she stressed that
there is a lot of variety with-
in the produce, including
herbs and fruits. There is
one lady selling fruits this
year, which is a first for the
Farmers Market.
Loewen is happy with
the turnout this year, and
feels that it is better than
last year. Weve had a lot
of interest in the market
this year, and things are
picking up, she said. This
is good, since the non-
profit group is looking to
raise funds in order to buy
new equipment.
Our canopies are
quite pricey for the com-
mercial ones, Loewen
said, noting that they can
cost about $500 each.
This is a lot of money for
a small-town market. So

Union has been helping

going to the Farmers Mar-
ket.
If anyone wishes to
make a donation to the
Farmers Market for their
new canopies, they can
make a donation into the
Farmers Market account
at the Minnedosa Credit
Union.
Another new feature
for the Farmers Market
this season is the addition
of the information booth,
which has a spot for people
to make donations to the
Minnedosa and Area Food
Bank. They will accept
produce, canned foods or
financial donations. The

City Seniors Visit Heritage Village
By DARRYL HOLYK
O n Tuesday, August 1st,
a charter bus of 39 ac-
tive seniors from Winnipeg
visited the Minnedosa Dis-
trict Museum and Heritage
Village. The group includ-
ed members of the Salva-
tion Army Seniors Well-
ness Program run from the
Barbara Mitchell Resource
Centre.
Upon arrival at Heri-
tage Village, the group
gathered under the shelter
of canopies and enjoyed a
bagged lunch in the fresh
air. Many of the visitors
commented what a beau-
tiful, picturesque area the
Heritage Village is located
in and that Minnedosa
is extremely fortunate to
have such a hidden gem
within its community.
Following lunch, the
Making The Perfect Homemade Burger
Cooking
With
CHEF DEZ
W e are just over one
month into sum-
mer and many of us rely on
our barbecues as our main
cooking devices this time
of year. Hamburgers are
always a favorite, but there
are still countless people
that purchase frozen pre-
made burgers instead of
making them from scratch.
Therefore it is my quest to
give you some great ideas
for perfecting the home-
made burger patty.
This will be a three-
part series of columns. This
first installment will focus
on meat selection, the sec-
ond column will focus on
ingredients to add to the
hamburger mix, and the
last focus will be on burger
toppings and bread selec-
tion.
There are several ac-
counts for where the name
hamburger is derived, but
the most common seems to
be from Hamburg, Germa-
ny; where people often had
what was called a Ham-
burg Steak. It consisted of
visitors were divided into
six smaller groups and
toured through each of the
museums nine heritage
buildings by volunteer
tour guides Susan Proven,
Esther Harland, Roly Lem-
oing and Darryl Holyk as
well as the Heritage Vil-
lage Summer Staff, Rayna
Topham and Daisy McKee.
Many memories of days
gone by were stirred up by
the visitors throughout the
tour.
Once all the museum
buildings had been seen
inside and out, the group
gathered back under the
tent to enjoy homemade
cookies and old fashioned
homemade iced tea. They
also enjoyed listening to
some authentic old fash-
ioned music played on a
recently restored Edison
Cylinder player. The group
shredded beef mixed with
onions and different spices.
Many people today will rely
on the burger toppings,
rather than the patty itself,
to create a flavourful burg-
er. I myself like to focus on
the patty first and then ac-
centuate with toppings. It is
much easier to compliment
something if it already
tastes good on its own.
Lets start with the se-
lection of meats to use.
There are many burgers
made with ingredients
other than beef, such as
chicken, turkey, salmon
and even veggie burgers,
but I will stick to the tradi-
tional focus of beef for the
purpose of this column. In-
stead of settling for simple
ground beef at your super-
market, head off to your lo-
cal butcher instead. There
you will find a number of
choices such as ground sir-
loin and ground chuck as
well as a couple grades of
ground beef.
Lean ground beef is
the most common choice

then shared memories
and stories of the past
which were brought back
while viewing the thou-
sands of historic artifacts
housed throughout the lo-
cal museum. Before leav-
ing Minnedosa for their
journey back to Manitobas
capital city, the group was
excited to take in a quick
stop at the Bison Park.
Hopefully, the bison were
within viewing range for
the city seniors!
Two additional groups
of visitors from the Senior
Adult Independent Living
programs in Virden and
Elkhorn are scheduled to
tour Minnedosas Museum
and Heritage Village later
this month before the mu-
seum celebrates its annual
Heritage Day on August
20th.
for consumers because it
seems to represent the best
value. It typically has no
more than 17% fat, but be-
cause of this fat content the
finished burger has more
flavour and moisture than
extra-lean ground beef.
Extra-lean ground
beef has no more than 10%
fat content. This not only
makes it a leaner choice but
a healthier one as well. Nu-
tritionists will tell you that
if you enjoy eating burg-
ers, then extra-lean ground
beef in moderation is a
great way to help reduce
saturated animal fats. If you
find its too lean, then one
could always add a small
amount of healthier olive
oil to your burger mix.
Ground sirloin is ex-
actly what the name states.
Regular, lean, and extra-
lean ground beef comes
from a variety of different
cuts of beef, but ground
sirloin is only derived from

Household Hints and Helpful Tips

Hi Reena,
I received four ce-
ramic onion soup bowls
with lids that have a ter-
rible cigarette odour. Ive
tried washing them in the
dishwasher several times
as well as soaking them in
a solution of one cup vin-
egar, two cups water and
two tablespoons of bak-
ing soda for 15 minutes.
Th at solution somewhat
masked it, but I can still
smell the cigarette odor.
Do you have any solutions
I can try? Kathy
Hi Kathy,

cola and leave for a week.

Dear Reena,
I often make cupcakes
for my kids lunches. I am
wondering if you have any
advice about the best way
to pack one single cupcake
so that the frosting is not
ruined by the time they sit
down to eat. Nancy Jane
Dear Nancy Jane,
Purchase a plastic cup
with a lid and a straw. Next
time you need to carry
a single cupcake some-
where, place the cupcake
onto the lid of the cup. Put
the cup upside down over
the cupcake and close.
This is a good way to trans-
port one single cupcake.
Or better yet, save plastic
sundae cups and lids from
your favorite ice cream
restaurant for transport-
ing cupcakes. But for
lunch bags, save the plas-
tic containers that muffin
liners come in, use that
container and lid to trans-
port cupcakes for lunches.
As well, if you know that
you will be transporting
one or more cupcakes,
make Decorators Icing
because it isnt as smushy
as regular buttercream. An
icing that hardens slightly
on top is much easier for
transport. You can also
top cupcakes with can-
dies (i.e. chocolate chips
or candy corn), doing this
prevents the lid from at-
tacking your cupcake and
distributing frosting onto
the lid (instead of inside
your mouth). Or melt a
small amount of chocolate
and dab it underneath the
cupcake(s) in the holder.
Th is helps temporar-
ily glue cupcakes in place.
Lastly, there are single and
multiple cupcake carriers
available for purchase in
stores and on-line.
