Enjoy THE SOUTHEAST JOURNAL A Sad Day in our Nation’s Capital Wednesday Oct 22, 2014 was unlike any other day Parliament Hill has ever seen. It was a surreal scene that unfolded in front of us as a gunman exchanged gunfire with security officers in Parliament’s Centre Block. At the moment of the attack, I was listening to the Prime Minister address our Conservative national caucus meeting when I heard five or six loud popping sounds from the other side of the caucus room door. It took everyone in the room several seconds to realize what we had heard, however, there was no mistaking the sound of gunfire. The original burst was followed by an additional forty or fifty rounds. Among the members of the Conservative caucus are a number of former RCMP officers. They recognized the need to secure the room immediately and directed all the MPs to help stack chairs against the doors. It was very interesting to see the instincts of these former officers kick in immediately. At that point, we still had no idea how many shooters there were, if our room holding the Prime Minister was the target, if it was a coordinated attack, and if so, if other attacks were simultaneously occurring across the country. Without a doubt, not knowing the scope of the attack was the most unnerving aspect for everyone in the room. MPs were instructed not to communicate using their electronic devices other than to notify their families and offices that they were safe. This security measure was in place so we would not divulge our location within centre block. After approximately fifteen minutes, the Prime Minister was moved to an undisclosed location and the Sergeant-at-Arms, Kevin Vickers, entered the room to notify MPs what had transpired in the hallway. He stated that he had taken down the gunman in front of the Library of Parliament. However, it was still unclear if there were other gunmen. We s p e n t t h e following 10 hours gathered together in the caucus room awaiting further instructions. Finally, at approximately 8pm, we were whisked away to another location where the Prime Minister briefed us on the situation. We decided as a caucus that our government would not be intimidated by this act of violence and terrorism and decided to open the House at 10am the next day us usual. Upon returning to work in the morning, bullet holes could be seen in the Hall of Honour. It was a sober reminder of what had happened, and a reminder that Parliament will forever be changed. As the Member of Parliament for Provencher, I want to extend my thoughts and prayers to the family of our fallen soldier, Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, who was shot and killed by the gunman while standing on guard at the National War Memorial. Let us never forget the sacrifice that many of our Military personnel make in service of our great country. I am incredibly thankful for the security and police personnel who responded so quickly and effectively to this situation. Their brave actions likely saved countless lives. Through this tragedy we can all truly appreciate what these men and women do for our communities and our country. While the peace we often take for granted in our nation may have been temporarily shaken, we will persevere. Canada will not be intimidated and this will only strengthen our resolve. We will come out of this stronger and united. May God keep our land, glorious and free. You may contact my office toll free at 1-866333-1933 or at 204326-9889.

Tolstoi UCWL from page 1 Ukrainian National Hall, catered by Olga Bezditny. Greetings were by branch president Helen Bially to begin the program. It was a pleasure to have Selo Anola Ukrainian Dance Ensemble, with their master Rod Picklyk, who introduced the group with interesting features about the group. They were powerful, creating a beautiful sight. How fortunate we were to have them perform. A program followed at which time congratulatory messages and presentations were made. Patricia Sirski UCWLC Archeparchial president of Winnipeg, gave a beautiful message praising the branch for its years of accomplishments and presented three 50 year pins to Helen Bially, Eva Bially, and Jeanne Germain. Rose Tkachuk received her 25 year pin. She also presented an engraved plaque which reads “We congratulate you and extend our appreciation for the dedicated service given to our people, our organization, and the Ukrainian Catholic Church” signed by National President Sophie Manulak and Patricia Sirski, Archeparchial President. Member of the Legislative Assembly Cliff Graydon delivered a heart touching message and presented an engraved plaque in commemoration of the 50th anniversary. Elaine Holodryga, Councillor, presented a certificate for the Municipal Council and brought greetings and congratulations. Theresa Antoniuk, President Winnipeg Region, offered her good wishes. Theresa’s mother was the branch’s first president, Lily Julia Kozak. Her twin sister Rose Fedorchuk was also president of this branch. A monetary gift was presented from the Rosa UCWLC branch as well as from Andy and Pat Sirski. Acknowledged a letter from Deacon Leon Twerdun, he was the branch’s spiritual leader during his ten years serving in southeast Manitoba. JoAnne Fostey (Panisiak), Novemvber 1, 2014 Pg. 4 unable to attend, sent a letter praising the dedication of the work of the members, whether the membership was big or small. Honouring and respecting our members to follow their footsteps, paying respect to her o w n m o t h e r, J o s i e Panisiak (Slobodian). The hall was appropriately decorated for the occasion, yellow and blue table coverings, centerpieces and glowing candles. A traditional kolachi embraced the head table. There were bouquets of wheat, Ukrainian embroidered scarfs, and the display tables featured coverings from the Ukrainian, embroidery, pysankas, pictures, roses, Icons, and so much more memorabilia of fifty years. This branch was organized on November 24, 1964 under the direction of Father Marion Dawydko. Throughout the 50 years the league membership has worked faithfully to raise funds through the various functions holding Easter bake sales, flea markets, raffles, luncheons, made lots and lots of perogies etc. The monies raise helped fulfill annual obligatory league funds, donate to local hospitals, and support a foster child in a foreign country. The league was responsible for correction catechism by correspondence, visitations to shut-ins, in personal care homes, assisting in church maintenance. As the program of dancing embraced the afternoon with more amazing footwork and colour, a 50/50 draw was also held and the winners were Don Germain, Joanne L e w a n d o w s k y, a n d Jarvis Bially.

The day was one of unbelievable happenings, how could one man come and put the country at such horror. A soldier’s life is lost, others injured. The action of security was very evident. Thank God for all of them who are there risking their own lives to save many others. May God keep our country free from such re-occurrence THE SOUTHEAST JOURNAL Inside the Dike Hope You Enjoyed Your Halloween by Don Piett All Hallows eve, or as we know it better Halloween. When I was growing up in Thompson, the most important thing about Halloween was it marked the divide between fall and winter. It was common knowledge that any snow that fell prior to the end of October would likely melt, but that that came after November 1 st w a s g u a r a n t e e d to stay around until May. (This was before climate change or global warming or whatever you want to call it). This was important stuff. The other thing about Halloween in Thompson, it was usually cold. Costumes that had some bulk were favoured, at least by mom’s so there was a fairly steady parade of Eskimos, hockey players and rather strange looking lumpy princesses (nice princess costume stretched over a snow suit). Removing frozen egg from your house or car can also be a problem. Before we moved to Emerson, we had a black cat. I mean Charcoal was the essence of black, no white or lighter colour spots, just black. Our cats were always insideoutside cats and this year was warm enough the cats were still going out at Halloween. The doorbell rang and when I answered, there was a little princess at the door, Mom was waiting at the end of the sidewalk, and Charcoal was sitting on the porch. I guess the little girl thought she was Halloween decoration because when the cat moved, she jumped and said “That’s a real black cat”. I replied that she was our cat. The little girl looked at me, eyes about the size of quarters and asked “Did you get her for Halloween?” Here in Emerson, most Halloween’s have been warmer, which is nice for the kids. We don’t usually get many kids at our house. I think it’s because when your neighbour on one side is the New Horizon Centre and the other the Anglican Church, it is just easier to go to the streets with more houses. But we do enjoy those who come. Our grandchildren from Altona will come and do their trick or treating in Emerson. So it will be good night anyway. Halloween will be over before you read this, but I’ll wish you all a Happy Halloween anyway. And remind everyone to drive carefully as the seasons change.

This National Senior Safety Week, November 6 to 12, the Canada Safety Council challenges all Canadians to commit to “take five to prevent falls.” With these easy steps, we can all reduce the likelihood and severity of a fall: Check your home for tripping and slipping hazards. You can use our infographic as a starting point. Bone up on calcium and vitamin D. It’s easy to add a glass of milk or handful of almonds to your daily routine. Check out the Osteoporosis of Canada Calcium Calculator to find out if you’re getting enough. Osteoporosis and weakening bones increase your chances falls and fractures. Check your medications. If you are on more than three medications a day, or take pills that could impair your balance such as sleeping pills, anti-depressants or blood pressure medications, have a discussion with your doctor about how to best reduce your chance of falling. Get your eyes checked. Even if you’re not experiencing symptoms, the Doctors of Optometry of Canada recommend that you have your vision checked at least once a year if you are over the age of 65, or every two years if you’re younger. Vision impairments are a leading cause of falls. Exercise to keep strong. Why not try tai chi? This gentle strength-building exercise works your core balance and has been shown to reduce the risk of falling. The Taoist Tai Chi Society of Canada says anyone can do tai chi -- even if you use a wheelchair or are currently experiencing trouble with your balance. We can all take steps to protect ourselves and our loved ones from preventable falls. Check back frequently at www. canadasafetycouncil. org for more activities and resources on falls prevention during National Senior Safety Week, November 6 to 12. k c o t s e v Li spor t Tran Looking for extra income through the winter?

So how come the attack on Parliament last week? The country was shocked to the core when this happened. I guess no country is immune to terrorism in this day and age. Being a sports fan, I watched the start of a hockey game that night where two American teams were playing and as a tribute to our country, they opened with “O Canada” and then sang the American National Anthem. That’s how they showed their support for their northern friends. Classy move! For the tenth year in a row Marcella Towle flew to Utah and joined her ladies softball team called the “B.C. Swingers” where they played Slo-Pitch baseball at the Huntsman Senior Games in Utah. What is a senior? Well, Marcella is seventy five years old and still enjoys playing the game. In a seven team competition, the Swingers came home with a bronze medal. Congratulations! Last Sunday Marcella and Jim Towle attended a family reunion in Anola where they met up with three members of the Kulick family formerly of Tolstoi, namely her cousin Susan, her daughter and granddaughter from London Ontario.

Your community foundation plays a vital, lasting role in your hometown by supporting charitable projects that improve life for individuals, families and the entire community.

We don’t need the radio or the TV to tell us what the day will be like because we can rely on the signs that nature provides. We should also listen to our grandparents and elders who have trusted their instincts and told many a tale about how to read the clouds, know the meaning of rings around the moon or notice where the squirrels scurry to in the fall. “It Occurs to Me” observing nature with a dose of folk wisdom tells all. Accepting Folklore passed down from generation to generation relies on an open mind and a keen sense of watchfulness- because winter on the prairies can be challenging. But with some old fashioned wisdom, we can predict t h e w e a t h e r. F o r example, “Red skies at night, sailors delight... red skies in morning sailors take warning”. We don’t have to be sailors to trust this old saying. As far as I’m concerned the eastern prairie skies will always read like an open book revealing the forecast! After a few swift whisks with the rake I noticed a fuzzy brown and black caterpillar. I leaned over and looked closely at this lumbering little creature and noticed the brown fuzz around his middle seemed narrower than the black. After researching folklore, the tiger moth caterpillar was telling me to be ready for a cold harsh winter. Equally curious, I have wondered about the large number of wasp, hornet and bees nests clinging high up in the trees. The old wives’ tales recognize this to be a sign of, need I say it? Most of the deciduous trees have dropped their leaves but the oaks in this yard have also shed more acorns that I’ve ever seen. Once again folklore not only explained the massive number of grounded acorns but also pointed out the unusual thickness of the acorn’s shell as a warning of what lies ahead! Plants from the garden can do some of their own predicting too. I’m not sure how they know but onions will produce a thickened skin while corn produces tighter layers of husks if colder than usual days are coming. The “Old Farmer’s Almanac” is a standard book on the shelf at our house and at this time of year, I always have a peek at the prairie predictions for the months ahead. The Almanac publishers have used successful formulas (since 1792) to predict the weather and it seems the birds, bees and caterpillars are in agreement with this trusted little book. The Almanac predicts plenty of snowfall in the middle to the end of each of our winter months in Manitoba with colder temperatures to start us off. If you are feeling a bone-chilling weight reading these age old signs from nature, I apologize. I have the opportunity to witness up close and personal the evidence surrounding the farm where my fascination with the weather rises from a close connection to nature. Most recently I’ve been monitoring the action on the creek where the beavers are constructing a thick heavy lodge in order to block more water. And the old timers love to tell stories about what those clever busy beavers know! But I thought I’d give you a few things to investigate. Why not take a moment to look up, look down and look around at the changing prairie season. The signs are just outside the back door and the folk wisdom passed down from generations before ustells all! 14103GG05 14105gg03 Novemvber 1, 2014 Pg 9 THE SOUTHEAST JOURNAL Red River Recreation serving The Town of Emerson and the R.M. of Franklin Delayne Gibbs 373-2026 or 746-5847 Email: [email protected] Office hours: Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 8:30-4:30 in Emerson Tuesday, Thursday: 8:30-4:30 in Dominion City Saturday, Sunday: CLOSED CONTACT PERSON NEEDED FOR THE FOLLOWING COMMUNITIES: Tolstoi & Roseau River This contact person would be responsible for posting posters around their community of upcoming programs and events in the Town of Emerson & R.M. of Franklin Area.

Most public figures choose not to expose their dirty laundry for the world to see. (I said most, not all.) But for the CBC’s Jian Ghomeshi he had all his kinky sexcapades posted on Facebook and even with the help of a PR company. In case you missed the story: Ghomeshi is supposedly the victim of a jilted ex-girlfriend who was conspiring to have people come forward and say he abused them and forced them into rough sex. He disputes the claim saying everything he participates in is consensual. He said he was upfront with the CBC about the drama happening in his personal life but got fired from the broadcaster last Friday. For its part, the CBC immediately released a cryptic statement saying, “Information came to our attention recently that in CBC’s judgment precludes us from continuing our relationship with Jian Ghomeshi.” Though at the time we didn’t know why he was removed from the air. Over that weekend is when it all came out. For his part, Ghomeshi is basically suing all of us -- by way of a lawsuit against the public broadcaster funded by our tax dollars -- to the tune of $50-plus million. Ghomeshi said the CBC had supported him but unceremoniously gave him the boot when things got a little too public. Yes, it does bring up the point of nonconsensual relations, but Ghomeshi came forward and said he provided proof to his former employer that everything was on the up and up. (What sort of proof? I’m not sure I want to know.) This whole ordeal has led to a debate about the lengths an employer could (or should) go when privy to information about a person’s private -- read: sexual -- life. Having been in media for as long as I have, I know that my past or current actions could come back to haunt me at any time, I have also been extra careful with how I conduct myself on a daily basis in my personal life and in public so as not to get into one of these Ghomeshi situations. Keep in mind, at press time we have only heard Ghomeshi’s side of the story and no further comment from the CBC. But since the original story broke, a woman came forward saying that 10 years ago she was attacked by the radio personality. For the record: this syndicated radio host doesn’t engage in the kinky-CBC-kind-offreaky stuff. My radio shows are safe. Whew. That’s my point. What’s yours? Tell me at www.speakfreewithjb. com.
