18 Year
Sentence
For Man Who
Shot Kingdon
By DARRYL HOLYK
T he justice system can,
at times, be hard to
understand with many
getting off with just a slap
on the wrist. However,
earlier this week, justice
was served for the at-
tempted murder of RCMP
Corporal, Graeme King-
don.
On Tuesday, at the
Minnedosa Court House,
Judge John Combs sen-
tenced 19-year-old
Therae Racette-Beaulieu,
from Sandy Bay First Na-
tion, with a total 18-year
prison term for his cruel
and careless actions in
August 2018 in which Cpl.
Kingdon was injured by
gunshot near Onanole.
The sentence in-
cludes 15 years for at-
tempted murder and
one-year-and-a-half for
charges related to break
and enter, robbery and
stolen firearms. The time
he has already served
in custody since being
arrested in August was
factored into the total
sentence, leaving Racette-
Beaulieu with just over
17 years in prison left to
serve.

BY KAREN MITCHELL
O n the evening of Tues-
day, April 16th mem-
bers of the Minnedosa Fire
Department headed out to
the village of Bethany to do
a special, live training ex-
ercise.
A delapidated two-
and-a-half storey brick
home, donated to the de-
partment by Rob Boyd, al-
lowed the firefighters to fill
the interior with smoke to
replicate an actual burn-
ing building. As the old
house was still structurally
sound, it provided a great
opportunity for firefighters
to do some training in an
actual building with multi-
ple rooms and floors. Usu-
ally, the fire department
uses the sea-can container
at its ground training site
in the Industrial Park.
“Using an actual house
is a lot better training op-
portunity for the crew as
you can go into each room
and utilize the second
floor,” explained Fire Chief
Dean Jordan. “All mem-
bers go through their level
one training at the college
and have the opportunity
to use their burn house for
training, but to be able to
do additional trainings is
always a bonus.”
Two old, abandoned
houses in Bethany, which
are located side-by-side,
were graciously donated

are scheduled to be re-
moved during a controlled
burn later in the month.

The houses will be burned
separately, allowing the
department to have a cou-
ple of good training oppor-
tunities.
During Tuesday
night’s excersice, skills
such as breaking out win-
dows to enter a smoke-
filled home and entering
to locate and rescue oc-
cupants (a life-size stuffed
dummy) were carried out
as part of this valuable
training practice.
In other recent fire
department happenings,
this past winter, they se-
cured the purchase of a
1996 Freightliner FL-80
pumper truck that holds
3,000 gallons of water. This
purchase was recently fi-
nalized by Town Council at
a cost of $81,360.
The bonus of this truck
is that it is also set up as
a pumper. This gives the
department three pump-
ers and a tanker within its
fleet. “The advantage of
this truck is the ability to
have the dual purpose, a
tanker and pump truck in
one. The tanker will go to
all rural fires along with
the fire truck,” said Dean.
Previously, when in
need of additional water
on scene of a fire, the de-
partment was using the
Town of Minnedosa water
truck that only held 800-
1,000 gallons of water.

Knights of Columbus Donate to Clinic
By KAREN MITCHELL
O n Thursday, April
18th members of
the Knights of Columbus
#6815 donated $1,000 to
the Dr. Ajai Khandelwal
Minnedosa Primary Care
Centre.
The donation repre-

With continued successful

Welder Earns Silver in Skills Competition

O n April 11th, Neepa-

wa resident, Aaron
Frohwerk, received a silver
medal in the 22nd Annual
Skills Manitoba Compe-
tition for his exceptional
welding abilities.
Aaron, who has
worked at Minnedosa’s
Midnight Metalworks for
the last five years, is very
happy with his win. “It’s
nice to have my work rec-
ognized and the bragging
rights are always good to,”
said Frohwerk.
Having just finished
his second level weld-
ing course at Assiniboine
Community College
(ACC), Aaron entered the
contest under Team As-
siniboine. This fall he will
be returning to ACC to
complete his journeyman
apprentice welding course
and plans on continuing
north of Minnedosa on
Highway #10.
The Skills Manitoba
Competition is a one-day
event that provides young
Manitobans the opportu-
nity to showcase their tal-
ents in an Olympic-style,
province wide contest,
held at Red River College
in Winnipeg. Students
compete in over 40 differ-
ent hands on contests at
the secondary and post-
secondary/apprentice lev-
el that are designed (and
judged) by industry pro-
fessionals and educators.
The philosophy behind the
competition is to reward
students, involve industry
and to keep training rele-
vant for employers’ needs.
For Aaron, the compe-
tition involved two sepa-
rate projects. The first was
to weld together a box us-
competition. Each partici-
pant was given one hour to
complete the project and
the judges checked for ac-
curacy, size and look of
weld once completed. The
second project was a more
in-depth box with more
pieces and welds and par-
ticipants were given six
hours to complete.
Overall, Aaron is sat-
isfied with his win and
enjoyed the competition
as a whole. He isn’t sure if
he will be allowed to com-
pete in the competition
next year as he will be a
journeyman, but he is very
happy he was given the
chance this year. “If any-

Minnedosa Food Bank Looking at New Endeavor

Area Food Bank con-
tinues to volunteer count-
less hours to ensure no one
goes hungry in and around
Minnedosa. The board
is gearing up for another
busy and rewarding year
and also looking to try a
new endeavor for our area.
On Wednesday, April
10th the Minnedosa and
Area Food Bank held their
Annual General meeting
at the Minnedosa United
Church. The meeting was
well attended by the com-
munity, which was greatly
appreciated by the board.
During the meeting the
board announced that the
2018 food donations to-
taled 3672.74 kg and mon-
etary donations totaled
$24,716.75.
New board members;
Grant Kasczor, Carol Tay-
lor, Dominque Hampton,
Jackie Birch, Alison Bur-
gess and Stephanie Jordon
were nominated and car-
rently the membership
sits at fourteen members.
Carol Brown was elected
to be the new Chairperson,
taking over the seat from
past chairperson, Linda
Bertram, and Shari Saler
was elected to Vice-Chair-
person.
During the month of
March, Hunger Count 2019
survey was completed and
submitted to the Manitoba
Association of Food Banks,
which is then forward to
Food Banks Canada. The
Hunger Count report es-
tablishes an up-to-date
understanding of hunger
in Canada in order to sup-
port advocacy for change.
Results of this national
survey will be released lat-
er in the year. Food Banks
Canada is a nation charita-
ble organization dedicated
to helping Canadians liv-
ing with food insecurity.
They support a network of
Provincial Associations, af-
filiate food banks and food
hunger. Their work is fo-
cused on maximizing col-
lective impact, strength-
ening local capacity and
reducing the need for food
banks.
The Minnedosa and
Area Food Bank averages
between 35 to 40 clients/
households visits every
month. This is a slight de-
crease from last year as
the Erickson foodbank has
now opened, taking over
those area residents.
New for this year, the
board is currently explor-
ing a summer food pro-
gram for kids called “After
the Bell” which is a Food
Banks Canada program.
Food Banks Canada aims
to respond to child hun-
ger across Canada during
the summer months when
school food programs are
not in operation. “After the
Bell” provides kids expe-
riencing food insecurity
with packs of kid friendly,

tions for this program will
be available within the

Minnedosa Food Bank.
For more information on
the program see future
editions of The Minnedosa
Tribune closer to summer.
Once again, board
members will be canvass-
ing at the Minnedosa Heri-
tage Co-op grocery store
on June 7th and 8th. The
board is only looking for

Less Administration in Modernized

Community Grant Application Process
The total funding available through our realignment
Ye O l d
Trib
is the same as it was under the seven previous programs.
Under The Dome The Building Sustainable Communities Program will
By provide up to $75,000 per eligible project, for a maximum
of 50 percent of the cost. Matching funds can come from
GREG NESBITT other levels of government, though 10 percent of each
Riding Mountain MLA project’s cost is required from a non-government source
such as a community foundation or service club. Our
government will help to prepare organizations to raise
funds and to engage the private sector.

M anitoba’s non-profit groups and charitable organi-

zations need a modern and efficient grant support
program for community development projects, and our
government is providing just that.
The new Building Sustainable Communities Pro-
gram will streamline support province-wide while ensur-
ing strong funding for the needs of communities and for
vulnerable Manitobans.
The $7.9-million program will transform grant fund-
ing with a focus on increasing community capacity and
the sustainability of non-profit organizations. Replacing
seven provincial grant programs that had top-heavy ad-
ministration and rigid requirements, the Building Sus-
tainable Communities Program will be more responsive
to communities’ needs while reducing red tape and du-
plication for applicants and for our government.
As well, with more comprehensive funding to sup-
port a broader range of projects including planning, con-
struction and equipment purchases, the new program
will better accommodate community, municipal and
regional priorities. Eligible applicants include non-profit
and charitable groups, municipalities and Northern Af-
fairs Community Councils.
The first application deadline will be May 22nd
through our new program, which will have two intakes
per year at set times for predictable support and positive
results. Applications for high-needs neighbourhoods will
get additional consideration.
The previous NDP administration’s seven commu-
nity grant programs were layered on top of each other,
causing duplication and confusion with different appli-
cation processes, rules and timelines. Non-profit orga-
nizations should be able to work for community devel-
opment without navigating bureaucracy. Our Building
Sustainable Communities Program will be far more effi-
cient and allow these groups to focus on their work.
Our government recognizes the importance of com-
munity development initiatives led by non-profit organi-
zations. This new program will support a broader range
of community-led projects more easily, and better serve
the needs of Manitobans.

Invasive Species Awareness Week in Manitoba
SUBMITTED
T he Province of Mani-
toba has declared the
last week of April as Inva-
sive Species Awareness
Week (C.C.S.M. c. I97). The
Manitoba Weed Supervi-
sors Association (MWSA)
recognizes this week by
highlighting just a few of
the invasive plants con-
sidered to be a significant
threat to the landscape of
our province.
The MWSA is com-
prised of and represents
Weed Supervisors who
are individually employed
by Weed Control Districts
formed by one or more
Municipalities. Weed Su-
pervisors work under the
authority of The Noxious
Weeds Act of Manitoba
(NWA). The NWA sets out
requirements regarding
various control or destruc-
tion measures for different
plants. A comprehensive
listing of noxious weeds
is found in The Nox-
ious Weeds Regulation,
which contains schedules
that rank plants accord-
ing to their threat levels
and specifies the areas
of the province to which
these levels apply. The
Act requires that Tier One
weeds, must be eradicated
without conditions.
Weed Control Dis-
tricts, first started in 1964,
have developed programs
to deal with invasive plants

such as leafy spurge and
red bartsia, which have
managed to establish
within Manitoba, causing
severe agronomic and eco-
nomic impacts.
Leafy spurge, an inva-
sive perennial first record-
ed in Manitoba in 1911 is a
serious pest of forage and
grazing land. A study con-
ducted in 2010 by the Ru-
ral Development Institute
(Brandon) estimates that
leafy spurge caused a stag-
gering annual economic
loss (direct and indirect
costs) of approximately
$40 million. There’s little
doubt that these costs have
risen significantly since
then.
Red bartsia is an-
other forage and pasture
invader. It was first intro-
duced to the Gimli area
in the 1950’s. The Inter-
lake Weed Control District
was formed in 1967, and
throughout the ensuing
years control measures
were undertaken. Unfor-
tunately, a truly effective
control program was not
initiated until 1999. By that
time red bartsia had infest-
ed much of the Interlake
region. Although the weed
is now being controlled on
roadsides, the cost is huge.
In the 2018 season, a total
of $176,849.20 was spent
controlling the weed on
the district’s rights-of-way.
With the district’s total
known red bartsia infesta-

serves in the soil, and seed
viability in the nine year
range, there is no easy,
quick fix for this problem.
With new infestations of
red bartsia already appear-
ing in other parts of Mani-
toba, it is imperative that
all areas incorporate care-
ful monitoring and aggres-
sive control measures to
prevent further outbreaks.
As with any invader, the
best control is to prevent
its initial introduction.
Both leafy spurge and
red bartsia are on Mani-
toba’s Noxious Weeds Act
as are the follow two weeds
which are Tier One weeds
on the Act. Either of them
could pose a greater threat
to Manitoba landscapes.

on Invasive plants either

Colourful Easter Sky Solutions and

REENA NERBAS

Dear Reena,
I have never had difficulty threading a needle be-
fore; however, recently I started having trouble seeing the
eye of the needle. Do you have any simple tricks for this?
Kennedy

Dear Kennedy,
A magnifying glass can help with this challenge. Here
is a hack that works like magic: place the thread across
the palm of your open hand. Lay the eye of the needle on
top of the thread. Vigorously move the eye of the needle
back and forth on the thread; the thread will eventually
move into the eye of the needle. Pull the thread, and be-
gin sewing. This takes a few tries to master but will get
easier after you get the hang of it.

Dear Reena,
Can you tell me the best way to keep bats out of my
house (attic and basement)? Will mothballs work? Paul

Dear Paul,

chemicals such as mothballs to deter bats. While bats

mothballs needed to repel them will likely be hazardous
to other people living in the home. Begin by figuring out
where the bats are entering your home. Contact animal

To recycle food scraps and biodegradable waste I use
