The figures come from the 2020 Saskatchewan Covered Health Popula- tion report. The covered health population is a count of every- one who held Saskatchewan health coverage on June 30. The report does not include people who have moved into the province but have not yet met the residency requirement of three months or people who moved out of province but remain eligible for coverage for the same period. It also does not include members of the Canadian Armed Forces, members of the Royal Cana- dian Mounted Police and inmates of federal prisons, all of whom are covered by the federal government. According to the latest report, Melville saw an in- crease of 16 people over 2019 and now sits at 5,374. Other nearby communities to see a bump in numbers included Grayson, which increased 10 to 371 and Stock- holm, which went up by nine people to 511. Towns to see decreased from the previous year were Esterhazy, down 34 to 3,151; Goodeve, now at 875, which is a drop of 16 from 2019; Neudorf, which dropped by six to 303 and Fenwood, which lost one person to put their pop- ulation at 75.

  • The Evolution of Curling Analytics
    The Evolution of Curling Analytics Kevin Palmer, Gerry Geurts and Jason Gunnlaugson CurlingZone Paper ID 13281 1. Introduction Simple in concept but actually quite complex, curling is often called “chess on ice”. Like innings in baseball, curling takes place over “ends” (8 or 10). Each end comprises of 16 shots, with each shot a decision point in the contest. In a 10-end game the captain of each team, known as the “skip”, makes 80 decisions. This makes for 160 decisions between two teams. In many cases the decision is universally accepted, but very often there can be disagreement on the correct called shot and one poor choice can turn the course of the game. Because of the way curling is played, each decision can be examined using analytics. What is the chance my teammate will successfully execute this shot? What will my opponent likely do next? What are the conditions of the ice and how will that effect our chance of making this shot and each subsequent shot? Based on the outcome of my decision, what is my probability of winning the game? Given the shot-by-shot structure of curling, many would consider statistical analysis as both desired and perhaps necessary for success. This is traditionally not the case. Curling is a game steeped in tradition, where parents and grandparents pass on experience to the next generation. In many instances, some of the best teams in the world stop and consider several options (while a chess timer is ticking away) when pre-planning could help clarify the correct decision much faster.
