ANGUS REID INSTITUTE After weeks of critical news stories that prompted Governor General Julie Payette to apologize for how her office’s work has been perceived in its first year and reiterate her commitment to the job, a new public opinion poll from the Angus Reid In- stitute finds Canadians with an opinion about the matter are more polarized about a traditionally apolitical figurehead and institution than might be expected. Relatively few are following the news about Payette’s per- formance closely, but those who are tend to hold more negative views of the Governor General. While most are unsure how to rate Payette’s performance as the Queen’s representative in Canada after 12 months in the role, the Governor General today enjoys little of the implicit goodwill the institute recorded for her initial nomination to the post last year (at the time, 55 per cent approved of her appoint- ment).

SOUTHWEST BOOSTERX THURSDAY OCTOBER 18, 2018 A10 Workplace fatalities in Saskatchewan increase in 2018 The Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board released data today documenting a rise in the number of workplace fatalities in the province during the first eight months of 2018. From Jan. 1 to Aug. 31 of 2018, there were 37 workplace fatalities. “Workplace fatalities are higher than we have seen in the past few years,” said Phil Germain, Vice President of Prevention at the Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board. “As employers, work- ers and professional organizations, together we must take steps to reverse the trend. The solutions will come from everyone working together.” Over the past 15 years, WCB data show workplace fatalities averaged 37 per year in Saskatchewan. In 2017, the province realized 27 fatalities – the lowest number of fatalities in that timeframe. FOR “All workplace fatalities are preventable,” Germain said. “We all need to step up to make our work- places safer. Safety belongs to each of us individually as much as it is a collective concern. Working 43 safely is just smart business and it’s the right thing to do.” TIRE EVENT ON NOW ON SELECTED TIRES UNTIL OCTOBER 27th TRUCK DRIVER AND NO, IT’S NOT A PONZI SCHEME.

SOUTHWEST BOOSTERX THURSDAY OCTOBER 18, 2018 A13 HARVEST 2018 Producers waiting for harvest weather to cooperate Southwest producers are weather watching in hopes for a return of drying conditions so they can finish harvest operations this fall. The Ministry of Agriculture’s Crop Report for the period of October 2 to 8 notes that harvest was stalled since the start of the month, with a second straight re- Extended port of 90 per cent of harvest completed. Rain and snow have limited field work to only a few hours during the Thanksgiving long weekend. Wet and cool weather has limited harvest operations in the Southwest, with offer! producers only able to collect four per cent of the harvest since 86 per cent of the crop was reported in the bin as of September 18. Any grain that has come off recently is being added to the growing acres of crop that are being placed in dryers after coming off tough or damp. A stretch of warm, dry and windy weather is needed in order to allow producers to complete harvest. * Crops remaining in the field are experiencing lodging from snow and rain, with some crops expected to be downgraded because they have bleached or sprouted. Geese and other wildlife have been feeding on swathed crops. 4.25% Province wide, 78 per cent of the crop is in the bin, slightly ahead of the 73 per 3-year non-redeemable cent recorded a week ago. The weather has now pushed Saskatchewan below the five-year average of being 84 per cent completed at this time of year.

SOUTHWEST BOOSTERX THURSDAY OCTOBER 18, 2018 A19 Chamber of Commerce aims to be a positive voice for local business
The Swift Current and District Chamber of Commerce wants their member businesses to thrive while they continue to advocate for the betterment of the business climate throughout Swift Current and sur- rounding region. Swift Current and District Cham- ber of Commerce Chief Executive Officer Karla Wiens said the Cham- ber, which was first established as the Board of Trade in 1907, is now in their 111th year of advancing the interests of local businesses. “We advocate for our members, and that would be on specific issues of the day. Instead of an individual business voice, we try to be a bigger group voice in the hopes that we’re heard more loudly,” Wiens said of their advocacy work. And it is this longevity in the com- munity that speaks to the importance of their efforts working to benefit businesses in the region. While they have a local focus, there is also a Sas-

The host Colts scored the opening 28 points en route to a 69-22 victory over the visiting Estevan Elecs in the quarter-final game on Saturday. The Colts led 42-6 at halftime and cruised to the victory behind a robust running attack that finished with 205 yards along the ground. The Colts got touchdowns from eight differ- ent players, including Ethan Kurtz, who also kicked four field goals and seven extra points to go along with an interception. Running back Jordan Lamontagne led the Colts with one touchdown and 119 yards rushing on nine carries. Shane Friesen car- ried the ball eight times for 81 yards and one touchdown. Dylan White, Kayden Dudley, Rhett Vavra, Nolan Klein, and Austin Beverly-Collins also found the end zone. The cold weather and snow caused a few turnovers as the Colts lost two fumbles and were intercepted once. The Colts defense recovered two fumbles and intercepted two passes as well. The de- fense held the Elecs to five first downs on 209 yards of total offense. The Elecs ran for 199 yards, but were only able to gain 10 yards on three-of-14 passing. The third seeded Colts will now face the second seeded Moose Jaw Central Cyclones on Saturday in Moose Jaw.
