We knew it was
too good to last, and
flurries arrived with
the rain on Tuesday of
this week. The wind
made temperatures quite
uncomfortable as well,
so I guess its time to
settle in and get some
of those indoor chores
done that I’ve been
putting off. Another
month comes to an
end this weekend and
we’ll be turning our
clocks back on Sunday,
November 2nd. It always
seems easier to get used
to the time change when
it goes this way. RVS Mini School
is restarting its fall
sessions. This program
will continue to Nov.
17, 19, and Dec. 1, 3
at the Roseau Valley
School Kindergarten
room from 9:30-11:30
am. Join us for play,
songs, stories, games,
snacks and crafts while
making new friends.
This program is free
and open to all families
with pre-school-aged
children.
In other RVS news,
a Nursery Rhyme
Learning Fair presented
by RVS Mini School will
be held on November 5th
from 9 - 11 am in the

This is a free event for
families with preschoolaged children. Parents

A Sad Day in our Nation’s Capital
Wednesday Oct 22,
2014 was unlike any
other day Parliament
Hill has ever seen.
It was a surreal
scene that unfolded in
front of us as a gunman
exchanged gunfire
with security officers
in Parliament’s Centre
Block.
At the moment
of the attack, I was
listening to the Prime
Minister address our
Conservative national
caucus meeting when
I heard five or six loud
popping sounds from
the other side of the
caucus room door. It
took everyone in the
room several seconds
to realize what we
had heard, however,
there was no mistaking
the sound of gunfire.
The original burst
was followed by an
additional forty or fifty
rounds.
Among the members
of the Conservative
caucus are a number of
former RCMP officers.
They recognized the
need to secure the
room immediately and
directed all the MPs
to help stack chairs
against the doors. It
was very interesting to
see the instincts of these
former officers kick in
immediately.
At that point, we still
had no idea how many
shooters there were, if
our room holding the
Prime Minister was
the target, if it was a
coordinated attack, and
if so, if other attacks
were simultaneously
occurring across the
country. Without a
doubt, not knowing
the scope of the attack
was the most unnerving
aspect for everyone
in the room. MPs
were instructed not to
communicate using
their electronic devices
other than to notify their
families and offices that
they were safe. This
security measure was
in place so we would
not divulge our location
within centre block.
After approximately
fifteen minutes, the
Prime Minister was
moved to an undisclosed
location and the
Sergeant-at-Arms,
Kevin Vickers, entered
the room to notify MPs
what had transpired in
the hallway. He stated
that he had taken
down the gunman in
front of the Library of
Parliament. However, it
was still unclear if there
were other gunmen.
We s p e n t t h e
following 10 hours
gathered together in the
caucus room awaiting
further instructions.
Finally, at approximately
8pm, we were whisked
away to another location
where the Prime
Minister briefed us
on the situation. We
decided as a caucus that
our government would
not be intimidated by
this act of violence and
terrorism and decided to
open the House at 10am
the next day us usual.
Upon returning to
work in the morning,
bullet holes could be seen
in the Hall of Honour. It
was a sober reminder
of what had happened,
and a reminder that
Parliament will forever
be changed.
As the Member
of Parliament for
Provencher, I want to
extend my thoughts and
prayers to the family
of our fallen soldier,
Cpl. Nathan Cirillo,
who was shot and killed
by the gunman while
standing on guard at the
National War Memorial.
Let us never forget the
sacrifice that many of
our Military personnel
make in service of our
great country.
I am incredibly
thankful for the security
and police personnel
who responded so
quickly and effectively
to this situation. Their
brave actions likely
saved countless lives.
Through this tragedy we
can all truly appreciate
what these men and
women do for our
communities and our
country.
While the peace we
often take for granted in
our nation may have been
temporarily shaken, we
will persevere. Canada
will not be intimidated
and this will only
strengthen our resolve.
We will come out of this
stronger and united.
May God keep our
land, glorious and free.

The hall was
appropriately decorated
for the occasion,
yellow and blue table
coverings, centerpieces
and glowing candles.
A traditional kolachi

There were bouquets
of wheat, Ukrainian
embroidered scarfs,
and the display tables
featured coverings
from the Ukrainian,
embroidery, pysankas,
pictures, roses, Icons,
and so much more
memorabilia of fifty
years.
This branch was
organized on November
24, 1964 under the
direction of Father
Marion Dawydko.
Throughout the 50 years
the league membership
has worked faithfully
to raise funds through
the various functions
holding Easter bake
sales, flea markets,
raffles, luncheons, made
lots and lots of perogies
etc. The monies raise
helped fulfill annual
obligatory league
funds, donate to local
hospitals, and support a
foster child in a foreign
country. The league
was responsible for
correction catechism
by correspondence,
visitations to shut-ins,
in personal care homes,
assisting in church
maintenance.
As the program of
dancing embraced the
afternoon with more
amazing footwork
and colour, a 50/50
draw was also held
and the winners were

Wednesday Oct 22Shooting in the Nation’s
Capital. The day was
one of unbelievable
happenings, how could
one man come and put
the country at such
horror. A soldier’s life is
lost, others injured. The
action of security was
very evident. Thank
God for all of them who
are there risking their
own lives to save many
others. May God keep
our country free from
such re-occurrence
THE SOUTHEAST JOURNAL
Inside the Dike
Hope You Enjoyed Your Halloween
by Don Piett
All Hallows eve, or
as we know it better
Halloween. When
I was growing up in
Thompson, the most
important thing about
Halloween was it
marked the divide
between fall and
winter. It was common
knowledge that any
snow that fell prior to the
end of October would
likely melt, but that that
came after November
1 st w a s g u a r a n t e e d
to stay around until
May. (This was before
climate change or global
warming or whatever
you want to call it). This
was important stuff.
The other thing
about Halloween
in Thompson, it was
usually cold. Costumes
that had some bulk were
favoured, at least by
mom’s so there was
a fairly steady parade
of Eskimos, hockey
players and rather
strange looking lumpy
princesses (nice princess
costume stretched over
a snow suit). Removing
frozen egg from your
house or car can also be
a problem.
Before we moved
to Emerson, we had
a black cat. I mean
Charcoal was the
essence of black, no
white or lighter colour
spots, just black. Our
cats were always insideoutside cats and this
year was warm enough
the cats were still going
out at Halloween. The
doorbell rang and when
I answered, there was a
little princess at the door,
Mom was waiting at the
end of the sidewalk, and
Charcoal was sitting
on the porch. I guess
the little girl thought
she was Halloween
decoration because
when the cat moved,
she jumped and said
“That’s a real black cat”.
I replied that she was
our cat. The little girl
looked at me, eyes about
the size of quarters and
asked “Did you get her
for Halloween?”
Here in Emerson,
most Halloween’s have
been warmer, which is
nice for the kids. We
don’t usually get many
kids at our house. I think
it’s because when your
neighbour on one side
is the New Horizon
Centre and the other
the Anglican Church,
it is just easier to go to
the streets with more
houses. But we do enjoy
those who come. Our
grandchildren from
Altona will come and
do their trick or treating
in Emerson. So it will
be good night anyway.
Halloween will be
over before you read
this, but I’ll wish you
all a Happy Halloween
anyway. And remind
everyone to drive
carefully as the seasons
change.

Take Five to Prevent Falls
As the Canadian
population ages, injury
and death from falls are
on the rise. This
National Senior Safety
Week, November 6 to
12, the Canada Safety
Council challenges all
Canadians to commit to
“take five to prevent
falls.” With these easy
steps, we can all reduce
the likelihood and
severity of a fall:
Check your home for
tripping and slipping
hazards. You can use
our infographic as a
starting point.
Bone up on calcium
and vitamin D. It’s
easy to add a glass
of milk or handful of
almonds to your daily
routine. Check out the
Osteoporosis of Canada
Calcium Calculator to
find out if you’re getting
enough. Osteoporosis
and weakening bones
increase your chances
falls and fractures.
Check your
medications. If you
are on more than three
medications a day, or
take pills that could
impair your balance
such as sleeping
pills, anti-depressants
or blood pressure
medications, have a
discussion with your
doctor about how to best
reduce your chance of
falling.
Get your eyes
checked. Even if
you’re not experiencing
symptoms, the Doctors
of Optometry of Canada
recommend that you
have your vision
checked at least once a
year if you are over the
age of 65, or every two
years if you’re younger.
Vision impairments are
a leading cause of falls.
Exercise to keep
strong. Why not try
tai chi? This gentle
strength-building
exercise works your
core balance and has
been shown to reduce
the risk of falling. The
Taoist Tai Chi Society of
Canada says anyone can
do tai chi -- even if you
use a wheelchair or are
currently experiencing
trouble with your
balance.
We can all take steps
to protect ourselves and
our loved ones from
preventable falls. Check
back frequently at www.
canadasafetycouncil.
org for more activities
and resources on falls
prevention during
National Senior Safety
Week, November 6 to
12.

cliff.graydon@leg.gov.mb.ca Quick Facts about Falling
Compared to the general population, seniors are
more likely to suffer serious health consequences
from falling.
• It is estimated that 20 to 30 per cent of seniors
over the age of 65 will suffer a fall this year.
• Of all injury-related hospitalizations for seniors
over the age of 65, falls were the cause 85 per
cent of the time.
• More than 95 per cent of all hip fractures in the
elderly are due to falls.

News
By Sonja Grier
y
Abroad Canada
is known as a peaceloving and polite
country. So how come
the attack on Parliament
last week? The country
was shocked to the core
when this happened.
I guess no country is
immune to terrorism in
this day and age.
Being a sports fan,
I watched the start of a
hockey game that night
where two American
teams were playing
and as a tribute to our
country, they opened
with “O Canada” and
then sang the American
National Anthem.
That’s how they showed
their support for their
northern friends. Classy
move!
For the tenth year
in a row Marcella
Towle flew to Utah
and joined her ladies
softball team called
the “B.C. Swingers”
where they played
Slo-Pitch baseball at
the Huntsman Senior
Games in Utah. What is
a senior? Well, Marcella
is seventy five years old
and still enjoys playing
the game. In a seven
team competition, the
Swingers came home
with a bronze medal.
Congratulations!
Last Sunday Marcella
and Jim Towle attended
a family reunion in
Anola where they met
up with three members
of the Kulick family
formerly of Tolstoi,
namely her cousin
Susan, her daughter
and granddaughter from
London Ontario. She
had not seen them in
twelve years. There
were sixteen family
members in attendance
and all shared a potluck
dinner and spent the
afternoon reminiscing
about old times. The
event took place at the
home of Marcella’s
niece, Brittany.
Art and Myrtle
Ganske reached a
special milestone in their
marriage on Sunday Oct
19 as they celebrated
their sixtieth wedding
anniversary in Morris

THE SOUTHEAST JOURNAL
It Occurs to Me
Prairie Folklore
By Joanne Graydon
If there is one thing
people living on the
prairies enjoy the most,
it has to be endless
discussions about the
weather. We don’t need
the radio or the TV to
tell us what the day
will be like because we
can rely on the signs
that nature provides. We
should also listen to our
grandparents and elders
who have trusted their
instincts and told many
a tale about how to read
the clouds, know the
meaning of rings around
the moon or notice
where the squirrels
scurry to in the fall.
“It Occurs to Me”
observing nature with a
dose of folk wisdom tells
all. Accepting Folklore
passed down from
generation to generation
relies on an open mind
and a keen sense of
watchfulness- because
winter on the prairies
can be challenging. But
with some old fashioned
wisdom, we can predict
t h e w e a t h e r. F o r
example, “Red skies at
night, sailors delight...
red skies in morning
sailors take warning”.
We don’t have to be
sailors to trust this old
saying. As far as I’m
concerned the eastern
prairie skies will always
read like an open book
revealing the forecast!
After a few swift
whisks with the rake I
noticed a fuzzy brown
and black caterpillar.
I leaned over and
looked closely at this
lumbering little creature
and noticed the brown
fuzz around his middle
seemed narrower
than the black. After
researching folklore, the
tiger moth caterpillar
was telling me to be
ready for a cold harsh
winter. Equally curious,
I have wondered about
the large number of
wasp, hornet and bees
nests clinging high up in
the trees. The old wives’
tales recognize this to be
a sign of, need I say it?
Most of the deciduous
trees have dropped their
leaves but the oaks in
this yard have also
shed more acorns that
I’ve ever seen. Once
again folklore not only
explained the massive
number of grounded
acorns but also pointed
out the unusual thickness
of the acorn’s shell as a
warning of what lies
ahead! Plants from the
garden can do some of
their own predicting
too. I’m not sure how
they know but onions
will produce a thickened
skin while corn produces
tighter layers of husks if
colder than usual days
are coming.
The “Old Farmer’s
Almanac” is a standard
book on the shelf at
our house and at this
time of year, I always
have a peek at the
prairie predictions for
the months ahead. The
Almanac publishers
have used successful
formulas (since 1792)
to predict the weather
and it seems the birds,
bees and caterpillars
are in agreement with
this trusted little book.
The Almanac predicts
plenty of snowfall in the
middle to the end of each
of our winter months in
Manitoba with colder
temperatures to start
us off.
If you are feeling a
bone-chilling weight
reading these age old
signs from nature,
I apologize. I have
the opportunity to
witness up close and
personal the evidence
surrounding the farm
where my fascination
with the weather rises
from a close connection to
nature. Most recently I’ve
been monitoring the action
on the creek where the
beavers are constructing a
thick heavy lodge in order
to block more water. And
the old timers love to tell
stories about what those
clever busy beavers know!
But I thought I’d give you
a few things to investigate.
Why not take a moment
to look up, look down
and look around at the
changing prairie season.
The signs are just outside
the back door and the folk
wisdom passed down from
generations before ustells all!

THE SOUTHEAST JOURNAL
“To the Point”
By Jeremy Bradley
Geez, you think you
know your favourite
radio host, but..
Most public figures
choose not to expose
their dirty laundry
for the world to see.
(I said most, not all.)
But for the CBC’s Jian
Ghomeshi he had all
his kinky sexcapades
posted on Facebook and
even with the help of a
PR company.
In case you missed
the story: Ghomeshi is
supposedly the victim
of a jilted ex-girlfriend
who was conspiring
to have people come
forward and say he
abused them and forced
them into rough sex.
He disputes the claim
saying everything
he participates in is
consensual. He said
he was upfront with
the CBC about the
drama happening in his
personal life but got fired
from the broadcaster
last Friday.
For its part, the CBC
immediately released
a cryptic statement
saying, “Information
came to our attention
recently that in CBC’s
judgment precludes us
from continuing our
relationship with Jian
Ghomeshi.” Though at
the time we didn’t know
why he was removed
from the air. Over that
weekend is when it all
came out.
For his part,
Ghomeshi is basically
suing all of us -- by
way of a lawsuit against
the public broadcaster
funded by our tax
dollars -- to the tune
of $50-plus million.
Ghomeshi said the CBC
had supported him but
unceremoniously gave
him the boot when things
got a little too public.
Yes, it does bring
up the point of nonconsensual relations,
but Ghomeshi came
forward and said he
provided proof to
his former employer
that everything was on
the up and up. (What
sort of proof? I’m not
sure I want to know.)
This whole ordeal
has led to a debate
about the lengths an
employer could (or
should) go when privy
to information about a
person’s private -- read:
sexual -- life. Having
been in media for as
long as I have, I know
that my past or current
actions could come
back to haunt me at
any time, I have also
been extra careful with
how I conduct myself
on a daily basis in
my personal life and
in public so as not to
get into one of these
Ghomeshi situations.
Keep in mind, at
press time we have
only heard Ghomeshi’s
side of the story and no
further comment from
the CBC. But since the
original story broke, a
woman came forward
saying that 10 years ago
she was attacked by the
radio personality.
For the record:
this syndicated radio
host doesn’t engage in
the kinky-CBC-kind-offreaky stuff. My radio
shows are safe. Whew.
That’s my point.
What’s yours? Tell me at

Freedom is Never Free
The poem below was written last year
and submitted to the Legion Remembrance
Competitions. The Author was a student at Roseau
Valley School and her poem came in second in the
national competition.
Given the events in our nations capital last week
and the upcoming Remembrance Day celebrations
on November 11th it seems most fitting to publish
this poem and thank Alice Grier-Guimond for her
beautiful poem.
Freedom Is Never Free
By Alice Grier-Guimond
Memories fade as years go past
Yet the things they've done will always last
We are free, and yet we have forgotten
Freedom is never free
They fought for our rights and for democracy
They fought for peace so we could live in
harmony
They fought for you and they fought for me
We must not forget
Freedom is never free
We take it all for granted
A good night›s sleep of peace
While soldiers lie and weep
Not knowing if they will see the sun rise
Haunted by the ghostly cries of those who died
Why don't we realize
Freedom is never free
A mother who doesn't know what her son has
gone through
A father whose daughter he never sees
They've given up so many days,
Days that we just throw away
Time is valuable and it cannot be replaced
Freedom is never free
It's our choice to make
Our decision decides our fate
To speak out for those without a voice
To give freedom to those who don›t have a
choice
Freedom is never free
