1909 – Residents at Erickson are agitating for the con-
struction of a grain elevator.
1919 - $3 to $5 a day is the going wage for harvesters but
some of the Glacians are holding out for $100 a month.
1949 – A Model T ran into the side of a Main Street café
Saturday night and stopped short about two feet from a
five-or-six foot drop. The elderly driver apologized said
he did not know the town and “anyway my lights are
none to good”. He drove to the nearest garage where it
cost him 75 cents to have the loop taken out of one of the
wheels.
1959 - Drs. Stevenson and Hinch met with Town Coun-
cil asking them to pave the lot where the medical build-
ing stands. The doctors stated that if The Town would

selves at a cost of about $1,000. Council agreed and work
is expected to start shortly.

Testing the Candidates
By ALAn CAMpBeLL, president
Manitoba School Boards Association
E ducation drives social well-being. We may spend
more time talking about the economy, healthcare
or infrastructure, but education gives our social fab-
ric its strength. Educated populations are healthier.
They have higher employment rates in more highly
skilled and better paying occupations. They are also
less likely to become involved in the criminal justice
system. So, education matters to everyone.
The year 2019 is a watershed year. In January,
the government launched a review of Kindergarten
to Grade 12 education in the province. Thousands
of Manitobans shared their thoughts through public
consultations, written submissions, and online sur-
veys. The commission at the centre of this review will
prepare a report and recommendations for release
in March 2020. Between then and now, Manitobans
will elect the government that will receive that report,
and decide how to respond. We have a responsibility
to make sure that those we elect are up to that chal-
lenge, with the knowledge required to make sound
decisions.  account for about half a cent of every dollar of the ed-
As a parent, a community member, and a school
trustee, there are specific education-related issues
that matter to me, and conversations I want to have
with candidates before I decide how to cast my vote.
The student population in our public school sys-
tem is diverse, which is one of its strengths.   How-
ever, diversity also means that some students need
additional supports to succeed in school. Whether
it’s specialized language instruction for newcomers,
occupational or physical therapy for children with
special needs, or clinical supports for children in cri-
sis, all students must be supported. So, before I cast
my vote, I will ask candidates:  Are you aware of the
diversity that exists in Manitoba’s public school pop-
ulation? What would you do to ensure that schools
have the resources they need to support every stu-
dent so each can thrive and achieve at a high level?
Health and education have a symbiotic relation-
ship: a better education leads to better health, and
better health leads to better educational outcomes.
Schools work to mitigate the negative effects of pov-
erty on students’ learning and health through initia-
tives like meal programs, pre-school outreach, and
summer enrichment, but schools can’t tackle the
challenge of poverty alone. So, before I cast my vote,
I will ask candidates: Do you support the efforts of
schools in your community to help students over-
come the negative effects of poverty on their health
and education? What is your understanding of the
relative responsibility of schools, municipalities, and
the provincial government in supporting students
and families in poverty? Are there specific provincial

initiatives you support that would help in this regard?
All Manitoba public schools provide a solid core
education based on the provincially mandated cur-
riculum, but not all schools are the same. They may
offer programming that helps preserve community
heritage for future generations, pre-school program-
ming that helps ensure students enter kindergarten
ready to learn, or technical and vocational program-
ming in partnership with local businesses that both
helps youth transition to the workforce and commu-
nities to grow and prosper. Programs such as these
rely on funds raised through property taxes set by
school boards. So, before I cast my vote, I will ask
candidates:  Are you familiar with the types of local-
ly-supported programming that exists in schools in
your community? How would you work to ensure
that local community voices retain their power to
shape schools in ways that meet their specific needs
and wishes?
Manitoba has 37 elected school boards, com-
prised of 297 school trustees. School trustees are
community representatives serving for minimal
compensation. Provincially, the cost of school boards
ucation operating budget. An additional three cents
of every dollar pays for the highly qualified admin-
istrators needed to manage and lead in the complex
organizations that are school divisions. More than
95% of education dollars are spent in classrooms or
on operations, maintenance, and bus transporta-
tion. Reducing the number of school divisions will
not change these realities, as evidenced by previous
school division amalgamations. What such a reduc-
tion would do is increase costs, create a great deal
of disruption and uncertainty, and dilute or elimi-
nate community voice. If we are going to reduce the
number of school divisions in Manitoba, we need to
have a better reason than “because everyone else is
doing it”—and objectively, that reason does not ex-
ist. So, before I cast my vote, I will ask candidates: Do
you know what school boards actually do in Manito-
ba? Do you believe that they add value to our public
school system? Are you willing to work cooperatively
with school boards in your community to the benefit
of local schools? Do you support the current config-
uration of school divisions in Manitoba, and if not,
how and why do you think it should be changed?
These are my education-related issues and ques-
tions this election year; you may have others. What-
ever the case, please think about the issues, ask the
questions, and keep the conversation going. Sup-
porting education is an investment in our future that
benefits everyone. This election is our opportunity to
let candidates know that we value education, and to
support those that share this value.

Waves of Hope: Fitness, Fellowship and Friendship

Continued
from Page 1
“Our season is short,
but very busy. Between
summer activities, fam-
ily commitments plus pad-
dling, the season always
flies by,” said Clegg.
In July the group holds
a family night where family
and friends are invited to
come and paddle, followed
by a potluck. August sees
the local UCT members
hosting Waves for supper
after one of their practices.
UCT have been a longtime
supporter of the group. In
October the group partici-
pates at the CIBC Run for
the Cure in Brandon. Dur-
ing this event the members
do outreach to other breast
cancer survivors. In honor
of the 20th celebration of
Waves this year, the mem-
bers are having a special
dinner and a walk down
memory lane on Oct 5th
in Brandon for all past and
present members.
“As a coach for the
Waves it can be a chal-
lenge,” described Clegg.
“It involves planning prac-
tices, taking into consid-
eration the differences
of members fitness, age,
ability and commitment to
team. We are continually
perfecting our stroke, race
start and working on en-
durance for races. Length
of races are usually 200m
sprint and 500m race.
Building stamina is a key
component of practices
and safety is always first
when we are on the water
paddling. There is always
time for fun and it is so en-
joyable being on the water
on a beautiful evening.”
This year the group
saw several new members
join the team. “Several
years ago, I paddled with
a team when they were
paddling on the Assini-
boine River at Brandon.   I
enjoyed it so much that I
continued to look for the
opportunity to do it again,”
said new member, Dorin-
da Stamford. “My Mom
had breast cancer several
years ago and has since
succumbed to it four years
ago.   I joined the team
to continue my passion
of paddling and support
others with breast cancer.
The team is a sisterhood
and the love and support
is amazing. Paddling is
great exercise and look
forward to meeting the la-
dies on Wednesday nights
for fitness, fellowship and
friendship.   The Waves of
Hope rock!”
Another new mem-
ber, Jody Paterson, became
aware of Waves of Hope
paddling while attended
the Fashion Show in Bran-
don this spring. “It had not
been a year yet since I’d had
a mastectomy and rebuild
but knew I needed some
upper body strengthening
exercise. I thought it would
be good to meet other pos-
itive ladies who had gone
through breast cancer and
were working on improv-
ing their strength. I was a
bit hesitant about the time
commitment as my sum-
mers have always been
very busy but was assured,
I only had to come and try
it,” said Jody. “It’s good to
Photo by Karen Mitchell
spend time with positive
ladies who have faced or
know someone who has
faced the challenges of
breast cancer. I enjoy the
comradery, encourage-
ment, improved physical
stamina and fun this group
of ladies has to offer.”
While walking near
Minnedosa Lake with her
sister, Pat Davidson first
became aware of the team.
“I loved the sound of the
Minnedosa & District Recreation
drumming and watching
the paddlers keep in sync
with the drum. I decided I
wanted to join, not know-
ing at the time it was breast
cancer survivors,” men-
tioned Pat. “I joined be-
cause I love being on the
water and also enjoy any
physical activity. I am also
a bit competitive and look-
ing forward to perfecting
my paddle stroke and com-
peting in an actual race!” 
The absolute power-
houses these women are,
the strength they exude
and the determination that
runs through their blood
is overwhelming and yet
inspiring. Not only to have
overcome a life changing
disease, but to continue to
fight daily and win at every
turn is a true testament to
who these ladies are in-
side and out. Having first
hand experience watching
them work in unison to
paddle and obtain a com-
mon goal, my hat goes off
to these ladies for being
uplifting and amazing role
models.

A Trip Back in Time at Heritage Day
Just like an old fashioned recess, outdoor games such as Drop The Hanky
and Anty-I-Over were played near the Havelock School.
The day concluded with Minnedosa Tourism hosting its third outdoor
movie. Over 100 people gathered at the Heritage Village to watch
the locally filmed, “A Dog’s Purpose”.

T he Minnedosa District
Museum and Heritage
Village was bustling with
activity on Saturday as the
local museum board host-
ed its annual Heritage Day
celebration.
Traditionally held on
a Sunday, this year’s event
featured some new, old
fashioned, family-friendly
activities which drew some
younger families with chil-
dren to the Heritage Vil-
lage to not only take part in
the day’s events but also to
tour the numerous historic
buildings filled with arti-
facts from days gone by!
Staff from the Little
Saskatchewan River Con-
servation District were on
site at the trout pond for
some Critter Dippin’. Basi-
cally, children were given
a net to scoop up “na-
ture’s treasures” from the
pond water. LSRCD staff
then helped the children
go through the net full of
“goodies” to see what they
found. Numerous frogs
and neat little insects de-
lighted the participants
who were also given a
number of special hand-
outs from the local conser-
vation district.
In the vicinity of the
Hunterville Church and
Havelock School, the fun
and laughter was remi-

Roy Munro’s old Blacksmith Shoppe was back in action
niscent of the church and
school gatherings of the
good old days with chil-
dren and adults joining
together in the fresh air to
play Anti-I-Over or Drop
The Hanky. They could
also take part in an Egg
and Spoon races, test their
hoola hoop skills or try
out one of the many other
games available for play.
After getting tuckered
out from all those games,
kids (and some adults)
could sit back and relax
with a ride on the minia-
ture kiddies train making
its way throughout the vil-
lage grounds. This provid-
ed hours of entertainment
and was a huge hit with the
kids!
Throughout the day,
which began at four in
the afternoon, there was
a variety of musical enter-
tainment with performers
showcasing many different
styles and genres of music
on the front porch of the
historic Cadurcis House.
As Heritage Day pa-
trons wandered through-
out the village grounds
they could stop to view a

don’t see as frequently in
today’s fast-paced world
of technology. At the Hop-
kins log barn there were
log sawing and rope mak-
ing demonstrations. On
the front porch of the Octa-
gon display building was a
wool spinning demonstra-
tion and of course, the old
Munro Blacksmith Shoppe
was again fired up with the
village blacksmith provid-
ing entertainment and
education on metal items
were made and repaired
back in the day!
A small group of clas-
and a hit with spectators.
The Minnedosa Tribune
sic cars and one unique
old gravel truck were also
on display for people to
admire.
No old-fashioned
gathering would be com-
plete without food and
over at the village kitchen,
there was a selection of
barbequed hamburgers,
hotdogs and smokies fol-
lowed up by a good vari-
ety of tasty pie and drinks,
including some old-fash-
ioned sun-brewed iced
tea!
Heritage Day wrapped
up with a crowd of over 100
people gathering on the
grounds to watch the lo-
cally filmed movie, A Dog’s
Purpose hosted by the
Minnedosa Tourism Com-
mittee. Saturday night was
the third of four outdoor
movies being hosted by
the local tourism group as
a new and successful sum-
mer attraction this year.
This year’s Heritage
Day happened because
of the generous support
of volunteers, sponsors
and attendees. Sponsors
included the RM of Min-
to-Odanah, Minnedosa
Credit Union, Minnedosa
Home Hardware, Heritage
Co-op, Minnedosa Phar-
macy, Hillside Plumbing
and Heating and Minnedo-
sa Insurance Services.
If you were unable to
attend Saturday’s Heritage
Day celebration or want
to check out the museum
again at a slower, more
relaxed pace, the Heritage
Village remains open daily
for a few more weeks. The
museum will close for the
season after the Labour
Day long weekend and will
then only be available to
tour by appointment until
next summer.

OBITUARY
CHRISTINA EMMA SWEETING
NEE WILKINSON
November 3rd, 1921 –
July 28th, 2019
It is with great sadness
we announce the passing of our
beloved mother, grandmother,
great grandmother and great
great grandmother.
Mom was an avid bowler,
she loved bingo, travelling, ca-
sino trips and cards. Without ever
using a pattern, she loved crochet-
ing, designing dresses and her joy of
baking. She always had a smile on her
face and told the best jokes.
She had various jobs throughout her life from hairdressing
in her home and out, homemaker and working at Dan’s Shoe-
store. Her most loved job was being a mom to ten children Clar-
ence, Leonard, Marjorie, Betty, Donna, Connie, Ronald, Garry,
Bonnie and Robert.
She was predeceased by husband Claude, daughter Betty
and son Ron, parents Tom and Olga Wilkinson, brothers Mel-
vin, Tom, Jack, Stan, George, Len and sister Violet.
A funeral service was held to celebrate her life at the Evan-
gelical Covenant Church on Saturday, August 3rd, 2019 fol-
lowed by interment at Minnedosa Cemetery.
She will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
MEGAN ALAINE HEDLEY-BROWN
October 1st, 1996 – July 30th, 2019
Megan Alaine Hedley-
Brown of Minnedosa, MB passed
away July 30th, 2019 at the age
of 22 years. Megan was born in
Minnedosa on October 1st, 1996
to her loving parents Jennifer
Brown and Trent Hedley and
her big sister Kristen.
From an early age she
had a spark that couldn’t be con-
tained, always using her infectious
smile to brighten any room. She at-
tended school in Minnedosa where
she was constantly surrounded by friends,
family and the community. She spent many years dancing,
playing soccer and getting into countless shenanigans. From
navigating many family road trips, to backpacking South Amer-
ica and exploring Greece the travel bug has always been with
Megan. She then headed to Brandon University to discover
which path life was going to take her down next. Throughout
this journey she found a passion for photography and her sweet
puppy Mongo who brought her much comfort, joy and endless
love throughout the last year and a half. With her friends, family
and especially Mongo by her side Megan put everything she
had into fighting her inner battles.
She is now at peace and survived by; her Mom Jennifer
Brown, Father Trent Hedley and Step-mother Lesley Hedley.
