Big Valley’s ‘Christmas in the Village’<br />

Linda Stillinger,<br />

ECA Review<br />

Christmas is a time best spent in the<br />

company of family and friends, and<br />

that is exactly what the Big Valley<br />

community did on Dec. 22.<br />

Village and rural residents came<br />

together to celebrate “Christmas in<br />

the Village” with a host of events reminiscent<br />

of days gone by.<br />

From humble beginnings seven<br />

years ago, the event has grown into a<br />

community wide celebration, with a<br />

dedicated ensemble of community<br />

groups, businesses and volunteers<br />

working together to make this special<br />

event happen.<br />

There definitely isn’t a shortage of<br />

holiday cheer in Big Valley.<br />

It’s all about giving back to the community<br />

and kicking off the holiday<br />

season in style.<br />

As the number and variety of activities<br />

has grown over the years, so has<br />

the attendance.<br />

For many, the event has become a<br />

‘must do’ during the Christmas season<br />

with something happening in every<br />

corner of the village.<br />

At the Community Hall there was<br />

free chili and holiday treats, a last<br />

minute Christmas shopping area and<br />

a children’s craft table.<br />

Throughout the evening, the Big<br />

Valley Ukulele Club, Rosco, and the<br />

Original Cowgirls serenaded the<br />

crowd with Christmas carols.<br />

Downtown businesses stayed open<br />

late, adding to the holiday atmosphere,<br />

while the Big Valley Inn hosted a customer<br />

appreciation night.<br />

Throughout the evening, horsedrawn<br />

hay wagons transported<br />

revellers around the village to view<br />

the wonderful holiday lights.<br />

After seven years, Big Valley continues<br />

to keep “Christmas in the<br />

Village” unique and entertaining.<br />

The Original Cowgirls, from the left, Linda Thurston, Lori Gordon, Dallas Gordon were part of the entertainment provided at the Big Valley<br />

Our Oilfield . . . Our Future<br />

Crude-by-rail<br />

U.S. exports on<br />

6-month high<br />

by EnergyNow Media<br />

Canadian crude-by-rail exports to<br />

the United States climbed to a sixmonth<br />

high of 137,000 barrels per day<br />

(bpd) in October, data from the<br />

National Energy Board showed , the<br />

latest sign that tight pipeline capacity<br />

is pushing more oil onto railroads.<br />

October was the third straight<br />

month in which rail exports climbed.<br />

Volumes rose two per cent from<br />

September, but were up 33 per cent<br />

from the same month in 2<strong>01</strong>6 when<br />

Canada shipped 1<strong>03</strong>,000 barrels per<br />

day of crude by rail.<br />

The amount of crude carried by rail<br />

out of Canada is expected to surge next<br />

year as Canada’s oil sands output<br />

grows and outpaces capacity of congested<br />

export pipelines.<br />

Traders and loading terminal operators<br />

reported a<br />

boom in demand<br />

to move crude by<br />

rail in the final<br />

months of 2<strong>01</strong>7<br />

after a leak on<br />

TransCanada<br />

Corp’s Keystone<br />

pipeline left a<br />

glut of crude<br />

backlogged in<br />

Alberta.<br />

Data from the<br />

U.S. Energy<br />

Information<br />

Administration,<br />

also pegged<br />

Canadian crude<br />

by rail exports<br />

even higher in<br />

October, at<br />

147,000 bpd.<br />
