This portage to the Clearwater River was in use for more than a century during the North American fur trade. At Rendezvous Lake on the 19 km (12 mi) portage the fur brigades would meet every year and exchange trade goods for furs. The furs were then brought to York Factory on the Hudson Bay for shipment to England. The Methye Portage is now part of the Clearwater River Provincial Park and a National Historic Site. The Clearwater River is also a Canadian Heritage River. Did you know? Today’s Funny Trivia Charlie Chew is hidden in this What does a marching issue. Can you find him?

My kids had their first cancelled bus today due to blizzard conditions and icy roads AND it’s not even Halloween yet! I sure hope this is not what the next 5 – 6 months has in store for us. It has been pretty slow during the summer months for me in regards to SDTA activity. We continue to work on projects such as the FQR Program and others. Please review the Executive Director’s Report for updates on membership and more detailed reports on current projects being worked on. I reviewed and approved the audit for the year ending June 2019. I signed all the licenses for our next licensing period. We had our Fall meeting and was excited to learn that our 46th Annual SDTA Conference plans are well underway. Initial planning has begun, speakers have been booked and the theme has been set. I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at this years annual conference and AGM. And again as I always say, please consider putting your name forward to serve a term or two on our fabulous council. In closing, I’m sure by the time this newsletter hits your inbox, many of you will already be planning for the festive holiday season. Each and every year I always seem to have the same thoughts: Christmas can be so expensive and so exhaustive. But it shouldn’t be and why do I feel like this year after year? Sure the excitement on their faces is wonderful to watch as they open their gifts however in a few months, most of those gifts will be long forgotten. So this year I plan on doing things a little differently. I plan on making it a memorable holiday with ‘less packaging and more memories’ by giving the gift of experiences! Sure there might be a few small gifts to enhance the experience however it will make such wonderful memories. And memories of great experiences with family and friends are what will make this holiday season the best yet! “May the magic of Christmas fill your home with joy and peace. Best wishes to you and your family during this holiday season” Happy Winter, Glenda Burnouf SDTA President 3 | W I N T E R 2 0 1 9 SDTA Executive Director’s Report – Cindy G. Reed It looks like winter is here. I hope everyone is ready! It was great to see so many members at the Canadian Dental Association/Saskatchewan Oral Health Conference in Saskatoon in September. We had an impressive attendance at the conference. I was very inspired the comradery and professionalism shown by our members. Once again, a few more speakers found out what dental therapists are. Saskatoon Region is busy organizing the next conference on May 1-3, 2020 in Saskatoon. Details will be added to the SDTA website at http://mrws.sdta.ca/sdta_annual_conference.html. Training of dental therapists is always the focus for the SDTA’s council. There is a huge amount of support for the profession and we are hopeful that that support turns into training for dental therapists. We will keep working towards that goal. For interest…the United States has embraced the profession of dental therapy. There are 13 states that are or will be utilizing dental therapists, 3 states have legislation pending and legislation has failed in only 2 states. There are two schools training dental therapists, 2 more are set to open in the fall of 2020 and more to follow. You will be receiving your continuing education report updates soon. If there is any confusion on numbers of credits, clarification of categories or you are short credits, give me a call as soon as possible. There are links to upcoming continuing education opportunities in this newsletter as well as on the SDTA website at http://sdta.ca/continuing_education/professiondevelopment.html. If you have opportunities that you would like added to this page let me know. Next year’s membership fees will remain the same and are due by January 31, 2020. We accept cheques, postdated cheques, money orders and e-transfers. If you are planning to pay by e-transfer remember that you still need to send in your membership forms before your membership can be processed. Take care everyone and have a great winter!

ADRs are contractual agreements between the SDTA and the Dental Therapist in question. They are used as a form of consensual resolution between the Complainant and the Member. The Dental Discipline Act, 1997, in which Dental Therapists in Saskatchewan are regulated, states in Section 29(2) the provision for which the Professional Conduct Committee can consider at the completion of its investigation of a member. 29(2)(a) that the discipline committee hear and determine the formal complaints set out in the written report; or (b) that no further action be taken with respect to the matter under investigation because: (i) the matter has been solved, with the consent of the complainant and the member who is subject of the investigation; or (ii) in the opinion of the professional conduct committee no further action is warranted on the facts of the case.

  • Open Letter from Alberta Doctors to Premier Jason Kenney
    November 9, 2020 The Honourable Jason Kenney MLA Premier, Province of Alberta Office of the Premier 307 Legislature Building 10800 - 97 Avenue Edmonton, Alberta T5K 2B6 Re: Response to increasing COVID-19 infection rates. Dear Premier Kenney, We are intensive care physicians, emergency physicians, general internists, pulmonologists, infectious disease specialists and family physicians serving the people of Alberta. We are deeply concerned over the state of the COVID-19 pandemic in Alberta. Over the last three weeks, we have watched the numbers of cases, hospitalizations and ICU admissions dramatically increase. Epidemiologic data have suggested exponential growth of COVID-19 cases over the past month and the daily new cases, hospitalizations and ICU admissions are at an all-time high as of November 7, 2020. If this rate of increase continues unabated, our acute care health system will be overrun in the near future. There have been advances in the care of critically ill COVID-19 patients based on research over the last 9 months that have resulted in significant reductions in mortality and time to recovery. However, if the rate of COVID-19 spread continues, the consequences to the people of Alberta will be catastrophic. Acute care beds now used to treat patients with cancers, heart disease and other serious conditions will be occupied by COVID-19 patients. Operating rooms will be converted to overflow ICUs and health care professionals will struggle to provide an acceptable quality of care. While other hospital units can be converted to provide intensive care, there is a very finite number of healthcare professionals with the necessary skills to provide this level of care.

Technical experts were assembled in St. John’s, NL to constructively review: A Human Health Risk Assessment Plan originally submitted by Nalcor Energy in 2014 to satisfy one of the regulatory requirements for the Lower Churchill Hydroelectric Generation Project; and, Original research completed by Schartup et al. (2015) titled: “Freshwater discharges drive high levels of methylmercury in Arctic marine biota” on behalf of the Nunatsiavut Government. The Lower Churchill Project was released from environmental assessment in March 2012 following a Joint Review Panel. This project is under construction subject to submission of a number of regulatory monitoring plans. One of these plans deals with the proponent’s approach to monitoring the effects of methylmercury on human health. The Nunatsiavut Government (NG) contacted ENVC to discuss the downstream effects of the project and implications on the environment and mercury accumulation in fish and seals in Lake Melville. In February 2016 the Minister of ENVC met with the NG and their researchers in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.

  • Covid-19 in Canadian Media a Weekly Media Summary for Professional Communicators
    COVID-19 IN CANADIAN MEDIA A WEEKLY MEDIA SUMMARY FOR PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATORS For the week of MAY 10 – MAY 16, 2020 1 A NOTE TO THE READER This report reflects the findings of Canadian media coverage associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The Coronavirus case and media trends which are the foundation of this analysis portend earned media opportunities in the days following the flattening of infection and mortality rates. Just as these rates change from one country to the next, so do the pace and extent of earned media opportunities. We do not assert our expertise in predicting the infections curves, but rather, suggest only conditionally that if the infection and media patterns in Canada reflect trends in other countries, we can expect certain pathways to emerge across all countries. As such, please consider these findings “directional” rather than “statistically significant”. Please keep in mind that both Coronavirus and media trends are shown at the national and provincial level, rather than local level. While certain locales may see infections and coverage continue to surge, other parts of the country may experience a flatter curve more quickly. As such, deceleration in one area within a country may offset local surges in another. Unless otherwise indicated, the data reflects Canadian coverage in aggregate. This report is a summary of Canadian earned news This analysis features earned media coverage media content only, published between May 10 and from over 50,000 unique media outlets across May 16, focused on discussions related to COVID-19 both traditional and digital media sources, and Coronavirus.
