But since the drug will be legalized soon, some Selkirk residents didn’t see the point in attending this year’s protest. Anneleh Penner is a resident of Sel- kirk who works at the Cheeky Leaf. With cannabis legalization on the horizon, she didn’t think there was a reason to make the trip out to Winni- peg last Friday. “I don’t have plans for going, and I really haven’t heard as much hype for it this year,” Penner said. “Everyone is expecting legalization to pull through RECORD PHOTOS BY this year, so I’m not sure how many JUSTIN LUSCHINSKI people will end up going.

Young cattle farmer makes fi rst sale at Lundar Bull Sale

By Jeff Ward A 50-year milestone for Lundar’s annual Bull Sale marked the fi rst sale for 17-year-old Riley Wirgau, who hopes to begin his own enterprise one day. Wirgau’s fi rst sale also happened to be the highest selling bull for the day, marking a special moment for the young cattle farmer. Wirgau is only in Grade 11 but speaks with the confi - dence of a seasoned producer, saying that he is planning on going into cattle farming after he graduates. His fi rst sale, HKY Destroyer 86D, a bull weighing a mas- sive 830 pounds, sold for $6,250 to Glen Price from Elm Creek. Wirgau said he knew the bull was special and was expected to bring in a high price, but being the fi rst out of the gate was a bit nerve-wracking when the bidding started slow. “I was hoping for at least $5,000, so it exceeded my expec- tations,” said Wirgau. “[The bidding] was a little slower at the beginning and then it sped up. Then as it got past fi ve, I was kind of think- ing like even if it was to stop at fi ve, that was alright.” But the bidding didn’t stop at $5,000 and pushed the $6,000 mark before fi nally settling on the high bid. The fi rst sale of the day can be tough since it not only sets the tone for the rest of the day but buyers may be reluctant to spend big dollars right off the bat as there are still so many more RECORD PHOTO TAKEN BY KRISTINA JOHNSON animals to be seen.

After she recovered she was treated like a -Love Buzz and family BIRTHDAY delicate fl ower by her family and the townspeople considered her too tender to marry and have children. She and most of her family immigrated to Canada in 1952 where ANNOUNCEMENT she met Jack Van Aert. In Canada she became known as Mary or IN MEMORIAM Mia. Jack and Mary moved from Winnipeg to Red Lake, Ontario after they married in 1955. There she gave birth to four children Maria (Marianne), James (Jim), William (Bill), and Richard (Rick). These were diffi cult years coming to Canada without knowing English, living in a remote community without water or sewer with four children. In 1958 they discovered that their daughter was born with a dislocated hip that required travel to Winnipeg for medical treatment. In 1964 the family moved their house trailer to East Selkirk to George Van Aert’s farm while waiting for their house to be completed in Selkirk. In Selkirk Mom found her calling and became the perpetual mother. She worked at jobs cleaning but will be remembered for the times when she took in and cared for other people’s children. Growing up we often had extra children living in our house. Years later she took in and nurtured her grandson Christopher. The delicate fl ower had become a strong independent woman and a lovely lady. Mary is also survived by her son-in-law Ernie, daughters-in-law Avril and Sherri. Grandchildren Christopher (Destiny), Nigel, Dana, Claire, Sara, Serena, Isaac; great grandchildren Ariana and Zachary.
