Wade Kroening, Operations 

Manager for Flint Hills Resources and 

Kevin Hayes, Area Manager for 

Gibson Energy Inc. attended the Tues. 

Oct. 9 council meeting to inform 

council of a Mutual Aid Agreement 

between large oil patch players. 

The agreement was made between 

Flint Hills Resources, Gibson Energy 

Inc., Husky Oil, Enbridge, 

TransCanada, Plains and 

Interpipeline. 

They explained the vision of these 

petroleum-based companies was about 

involving the Hardisty Mutual Aid 

Group (HMAG) to ensure people, the 

environment and property is well 

looked after if an emergency situation 

should occur. 

“It gives us a broad base of 

resources and equipment,” stated 

Kroening. 

Kroening went on to say that some 

incidents may require more manpower 

or extended time periods to deal 

with emergencies and it will be a benefit 

having the HMAG working 

together and communicating on the 

same level. 

The HMAG plans on participating 

in table top exercises and live exercises 

that will deal with different types of 

scenarios that could happen in the 

daily operations of the companies and 

will extend an invitation to the Town 

of Hardisty employees to attend these 

sessions. Turn to Parkland, Pg 3

Coronation council 

Derelict vehicles to be removed 

Lisa Bye 


Council reviewed the 

monthly Bylaw 

Enforcement written report 

by Sheri Wuzinski, bylaw 

officer. 

The councillors were 

curious as to what the exact 

details were of the five derelict 

vehicle calls. 

“These are people that are 

adding to the list that want 

to have their vehicles picked 

up,” explained Chief 

Administrative Officer 

(CAO) Sandra Kulyk. 

Kulyk went on to add that 

derelict vehicle calls to the 

bylaw officer are a positive 

thing as the Town of 

Coronation has made 

arrangements to pick up 

scrap vehicles from resident’s 

properties. 

“That’s good people are 

adding their vehicles to the 

list” stated Coun. Vickey 

Horkoff with both Mayor 

Mark Stannard and Coun. 

Shelly Cook commenting in 

agreement. 

The complete bylaw 

report for the month of 

September included five dog 

calls, four cat calls, five derelict 

vehicle calls, one 

trailer call, two noxious 

weed calls, two reports and 

one fine. 

Intermunicipal 

Collaboration 

Framework bylaw 

The County of Paintearth 

has passed a bylaw to adopt 

the Intermunicipal 

Collaboration Framework 

(ICF).

[INSERT DATE] 

has given this proposed 

bylaw first reading and will 

schedule a public hearing 

later this month to discuss 

it. 

CAO Kulyk has been 

working with Todd Pawsey, 

Development Officer for the 

County of Paintearth, to 

finish the ICF document as 

required by the Municipal 

Government Act. 

The ICF provides a forum 

for neighbouring communities 

to work together and 

the bylaw must be adopted 

by both town and county. 

Campground 

software packages 

CAO Kulyk has been 

investigating software packages 

for campground 

registration. 

The Coronation 

Campground has grown 

and a system that will register, 

maintain and 

configure daily, weekly and 

monthly fees will be more 

suitable than the envelope 

system that has been used 

in the past. 

A computerized system 

will enable both the campground 

and the town to 

have copies of the paperwork 

and make it easier to 

reconcile the payments that 

have been received. 

Volunteer Firefighters 

Policy 

A new policy for town 

employees serving as volunteer 

firefighters was 

discussed and approved. 

The policy deals with 

such situations as approval 

for employee absences from 

work for firefighting calls,

Coronation RCMP 

investigate fatal collision 

Submitted 

On Thurs. Oct. 18 at approximately 

10:00 a.m., Coronation 

RCMP responded to a report of 

a two vehicle collision on 

Highway 12 in the County of 

Paintearth. 

Preliminary investigation 

has revealed a truck heading 

southbound on Range Road 131 

proceeded from a controlled 

intersection at Highway 12 and 

collided with an eastbound 

semi-tractor. 

Tragically, the 77-year-old 

lone male occupant of the truck 

from Castor, Alberta was pronounced 

deceased at the scene. 

The driver of the semi-tractor 

was not injured. 

Coronation RCMP and an 

RCMP Collision Analyst 

attended the scene and continue 

to investigate. 

No further updates are 

anticipated. 

Our thoughts are with the 

family of the deceased at this 

time and his name will not be 

released.

Council approved the proposed 2019 

Parkland Regional Library (PRL) 

budget of an increase of 1.6 per cent 

changing the per capita contribution 

from $8.12 to $8.25. 

PRL uses the most recent population 

figures provided by Municipal Affairs 

which is from 2016. 

Hardisty had a population of 554 

then which will make their 2019 contribution 

$4,570.50 and due to a 

decrease in population figures this is 

approximately a 12 per cent decrease 

from the 2018 contribution of $5,188.

A topic of concern brought up at the

communities such as Amisk and 

Hardisty. 

Beringer suggested that lobbying to

it is a safety concern.

David Nadeau 


From the Chris Hall playbook: 

if you fail to plan, you 

plan to fail. 

An accurate paraphrase of 

what small business specialist 

Hall said in his 

keynote address at the Three 

Hills and District Chamber of 

Commerce awards annual 

evening Sept. 18. 

But when 70 per cent of 

Canada’s small business 

owners do not have a succession 

plan, Hall said 

something as simple as a wellthought-out 

strategy can 

prevent decades of business 

building being ruined by 

family in-fighting, customer 

confusion, and employee 

tension. 

“With only 30 per cent of 

small business owners 

having a written exit plan,” 

said Hall, “it makes sense to 

prepare a strategy and follow 

it, without being swayed by 

negative reactions from 

family or business partners.” 

In conducting the 

Chamber’s 2018 awards ceremony, 

President Jeannette 

Austin had nothing but praise 

for all nominees, commenting 

specifically on the quality of 

all involved in the process. 

She said there were two 

awards available this year: 

Customer Service and, 

Overall Excellence. 

Of the six Customer 

Service nominees, the Three 

Hills Health Food Store was 

selected. In reviewing how 

this store seeks to 

serve customers 

well, Austin mentioned 

placing 

special orders, doing 

Parkland Regional Library budget approved 

used for road repair and maintenance. 

Calcium Chloride can be used as a 

dust suppressant on roads as it retains 

moisture for prolonged periods and 

this helps to hold down dust and stabilize 

unpaved road surfaces creating a 

smoother road. 

The chemical also melts ice faster 

than many other de-icing products, 

and unlike sand, it can be applied 

before bad weather hits, preventing 

ice before it forms. 

However, there is potential costs to 

vehicles as the Calcium Chloride can 

cling to the underbody of vehicles 

causing corrosion.

How to build community 

spirit: Recruit 

sponsors of a free meal,

and invite anyone who 

has anything to do with 

making Trochu a better 

place to live. 

The Town of Trochu 

and Kneehill Family and

that formula Wed. Oct. 

17, at the community 

centre to stage the town’s 

annual community 

showcase. 

The showcase, coupled 

with the annual Flapjack 

Fiesta, featured information 

stations, sports sign 

up opportunities, raffles, 

law enforcement, weight 

loss and more — for a 

total of 27 exhibitors. 

To add to that, 17 town 

and area sponsors for the 

annual Flapjack Fiesta 

and door prizes were 

on-scene. 

An evening breakfast 

welcomed more than 300 

visitors as well.

The project will be a real 

business opportunity for the 

future, with students involved 

in all aspects of business development 

from original concept, 

research and planning to 

licensing, promotion and financial 

accountability. 

The students hoped the board 

would support their venture by 

helping them to acquire a bus to 

convert to a functioning food 

truck. 

Project-based learning is an 

approach to education designed 

to enhance student learning by 

building real world skills and

the teacher shifts from knowledge 

dispenser to facilitator of

Checks and balances on power is one 

of the imperatives to successful 

democracies. 

The Fifth Estate on CBC recently 

aired an investigative story on school 

bus safety. Based on 1984 Transport 

Canada crash tests, seat belts on school 

buses were deemed unnecessary for 

safety and, in fact, seat belts may put 

students at greater risk. The Canada 

Safety Council (CSC), an independent 

body committed to safety, also stood 

behind these findings. 

“ 

The government of 

the day and subsequent 

governments sided with 

the money, or it’s just 

stayed under the radar 

until now. 

For 40 years we’ve been told seat 

belts save lives. And most of us buckle 

up faithfully believing it is safer to 

remain in our seats rather than being 

thrown out or becoming a projectile 

harming other passengers. Yet 

Transport Canada, political parties of 

all strips and CSC hold to the 1984 

study when it comes to seatbelts on 

school buses. 

Those 1984 crash tests only tested 

head-on collisions. The high, padded 

seat backs were successful in protecting 

students propelled forward. 

Rollovers and side-impact crashes 

were never tested. Anybody understanding 

basic physics knows an object 

is not propelled forward in either rollovers 

or side-impact collisions. 

In their investigation, the Fifth 

Estate learned two critical facts. First, 

34 years ago, Transport Canada 

planned to mandate seat belts on 

school buses. They withdrew this 

safety requirement after lobbying from 

bus manufacturers and school boards. 

Today I doubt any school board trustee 

is aware of this history but they are 

very aware that provincial governments 

don’t provide adequate funding 

for busing. 

Adding seat belts would increase 

the cost of a bus by $10,000 to $12,000. 

The cost-benefit analysis was whether 

a few student deaths or injuries would 

be worth the extra cost. The government 

of the day and subsequent 

governments sided with the money, or 

it’s just stayed under the radar until 

now. However, the more than two 

dozen parents who have lost their children 

in school bus accidents and the 

thousands who have had unnecessary 

injuries would strongly disagree. 

The second fact uncovered by the 

Fifth Estate was test results from a 

2010 crash test study by Transport 

Canada that were never made public. 

These tests included all forms of collisions, 

and, of course, the conclusions 

found high seat backs alone were not 

adequate to prevent serious injury or 

death in a rollover or side-impact 

collision. 

Transport Canada is charged with 

protecting children on school buses. 

School boards who lobbied against seat 

belts had an obligation to protect children. 

The independent safety body, 

CSC, accepted the 1984 crash test 

results without due diligence. 

Politicians and/or bureaucrats who 

shelved the 2010 crash test results 

acted without conscience. All miserably 

failed their individual mandates 

to protect children. 

In this story, the media became the 

only effective check and balance. Now 

it rests with the public. Election season 

is upon us. We can let the politicians 

dictate the agenda—immigration and 

government debt—or we can challenge 

them on life and death concerns, “If 

elected, will you mandate three-point 

lap and shoulder belts on school 

buses?”

County of Stettler 

County of Stettler 

prepared for 

cannabis legalization 

Submitted 

The County of Stettler No. 6 is prepared 

for the legalization of cannabis 

that took place on Wed. Oct. 17, 2018. 

On Oct. 10, Council passed Bylaw 

1598-18 - Cannabis Consumption Bylaw 

which addresses the consumption of 

cannabis in the County of Stettler. 

It states that cannabis may only be 

consumed in private residences or on 

private property. 

Residents will not be allowed to 

smoke or vape cannabis on any public 

property within the County of Stettler, 

including all of the hamlets. 

Penalties associated with offences to 

this bylaw are $250 for a first offence; 

$500 for a second offence within one 

year of the first; and $750 for a third 

and any subsequent offence within a 

year of a prior offence. 

The County of Stettler’s Land Use 

Bylaw was also amended to provide 

for Cannabis Retail Sales. 

Municipalities cannot prohibit cannabis 

production and sales, however, 

Council was able to customize the 

locations and setback requirements of 

these facilities to suit the community. 

A survey conducted by the County 

was responded to by over 600 participants 

who showed the following 

results relative to the location of cannabis 

stores: 

Seventy-eight per cent were either 

neutral or very concerned about the 

separation distance of cannabis stores 

to places where youth gather. 

Sixty-nine per cent wanted cannabis 

stores separated from places where 

youth gather by 200 metres or more. 

Forty-four per cent thought that 

hamlet commercial areas are an 

appropriate cannabis store location. 

Fifty-eight per cent were either neutral 

or not concerned at all about the

location of cannabis production 

facilities. 

Taking the survey results into consideration, 

and the fact that the federal 

and provincial regulations for security 

and other measures required of the 

premises from where a person applies 

for a license to sell cannabis are of such 

a nature that private dwellings are 

likely not suitable, the proposed bylaw 

amendment provides for Cannabis 

Retail Sales as a discretionary use only 

from commercial and industrial land 

use districts throughout the county 

including hamlets of Botha, Byemoor, 

Erskine, Endiang, Red Willow, Nevis 

and the communities along the south 

shore of Buffalo Lake outside of the 

Summer Villages.

Morrin council 

Organizational 

meeting for 

Village of Morrin 

Howard Helton and M’Liss Edwards 

were returned to their positions as 

mayor and deputy mayor consecutively 

in a 2 - 1 vote at the Village of 

Morrin organizational meeting on 

Wed. Oct. 17. 

Coun. Bob Graham asked why it 

would not be logical to rotate the three 

positions. 

“My thought was that right now it 

seems to me that we’re are on a roll 

and to do it [rotate positions] in another 

year,” said Coun. Edwards. 

Council unanimously voted all other 

board reps remain the same except for 

the Chief Administrative Officer 

(CAO) be director for Public Safety 

Services committee and Public Safety 

Alternate as per the Municipal 

Government Act (MGA). 

A new planning committee was also 

added with the CAO Annette Plachner, 

Coun. Graham and Mayor Helton 

appointed. 

The Alberta Government has made 

it mandatory for villages to develop a 

Intermunicipal Development Plan 

(IDP), a Intermunicipal Collaboration 

Framework (ICF) and a Municipal 

Development Plan (MDP). Previously 

villages were exempt from this municipal 

planning. 

Council passed a motion in the regular 

meeting on Oct. 18 to hire Vicinia 

Planning & Engagement Inc. of 

Calgary to do the study. The villages 

of Morrin, Munson and Delia and 

Starland County area will all be 

included in the plans which will also 

include public input. 

“It is a community document,” 

stated Elizabeth Armitage, principal of 

Vicinia Planning in a phone interview, 

“and we are here to help develop them 

with community members”. 

Council signed a government grant 

application for $20,000 to pay Vicinia 

for the study. 

Council amended the minutes of the 

Sept. 19 meeting in regards to the 

school award incorrectly named for 

the most improved Grade 10 student 

back to a Social 30 village award. 

The mix-up occurred involving the 

personal award by the previous deputy 

mayor, David Macleod. 

Village Employee 

Code of Conduct Policy 

CAO Plachner told council there 

already was a copy of the Municipal 

Code of Conduct for CAO’s in 

Municipal Affairs Act. 

“I’m covered with this so we can 

make one for Dave,” said CAO 

Plachner. 

Developing this bylaw had first been 

brought up in the July 18 meeting. 

We can create our own,” said Mayor 

Helton. 

Coun. Edwards drew attention to an 

AUMA document that was given to all 

new councillors in their training session 

that provides information for a 

formal approach and process stating 

“this is quite good. It gives us an idea 

of what we are doing.” 

Municipal Affairs says a performance 

appraisal once a year and 

evaluation is part of the process. 

Mayor Helton reiterated that “part of 

the project was to compare that one 

with this one”. 

Coun. Graham tabled the motion so 

that the two documents can be compared 

by the councillors and come up 

with a Employee Code of Conduct for 

the CAO and employees of the village. 

Christmas decorations 

In other business, council did not 

have costs for Christmas light pole 

decorations, however, Coun. Graham 

moved to have the CAO purchase six 

as it would be too late to order them for 

this Christmas if the decision was left 

to the next meeting. 

“I was looking at the simplest ones, 

easy to put up, easy to take down,” said 

Coun. Edwards. “Very similar to what 

we had before.” 

Usually around $600 - 700 each,” said 

CAO Plachner 

Project Status Reports 

Council went over the Project Status 

Report with many of the projects being 

finalized including the flags, sidewalk 

tripping repairs and curb stops that 

are ongoing and Peloquin sewer repair 

completed. The size of the generator 

for the village water pumps is still 

being looked at. 

It was not known who was supposed 

to be doing the flower barrels. 

Just leave it on, said Coun. Graham. 

Coun. Edwards reported on her conversation 

with Don Yavis, 

administrator at the Morrin School. 

“Each classroom is going to paint a 

[refuge] barrel. He thought it was a 

great idea.” 

Coun. Edwards will contact Dave 

Benci to make sure we have enough 

barrels for each class and to determine 

how many are needed throughout the 

village. 

Edwards also noted that the senior 

high classes would do the curb 

painting in the spring. Students have 

to put in volunteer hours so that will 

work in well. 

When questioned as to the plastic 

pipe in the tennis court and a need for 

a larger gate into the court, council 

learned that public works was 

intending on utilizing the space for 

storage rather than a bike park which 

had been suggested at a previous 

meeting by a resident. 

A suggestion that plastic pipe deteriorates 

in the sunlight and public works 

should check out the value of storing 

this pipe, prices for a larger gate and a 

tarp to surround it prompted CAO 

Plachner to have public works look 

into all of it. 

CAO Plachner volunteered to get 

copies of other Cannabis bylaws from 

similar-sized communities to bring 

forward to the village council at their 

November meeting. 

Fire Department Request 

In council reports, Coun. Edwards, 

the council rep on the Morrin Fire 

Dept. brought forward a request from 

the department to appear in front of 

council at their next meeting. 

Coun. Graham noted that Don Yavis 

would like to start a hockey program 

through the school and was hoping for 

use of the ice however, Graham noted 

the Ag Society, who operates the arena 

didn’t see that as possible as it would 

involve extra staff.

Stettler earns ‘Five Blooms’ score 

for community orchard 

Submitted 

The Town of Stettler received a Five 

Blooms - Bronze rating and a special 

mention for the Community Orchard 

during the 2018 National/ 

International Symposium and Awards 

Ceremonies held in Strathcona 

County, Ab. 

The community also received an 

Outstanding Achievement Award for 

the Scotts Community of Gardeners 

Award. 

The Town of Stettler participated in 

the International Challenge (medium) 

category along with Lewes Delaware, 

USA; Killarney-Turtle Mountain, 

Man.; Pincher Creek, Ab.; Jasper, Ab. 

and Novi Vinodolski, Croatia. 

Over the summer, trained volunteer 

judges travelled to participating communities 

to evaluate the overall 

contributions of municipal council and 

departments; industry; businesses and 

the private sector – including volunteer 

efforts – in regards to the 

following criteria: tidiness, environmental 

action, heritage conservation, 

urban forestry, landscape and floral 

displays. 

Following their evaluation, volunteer 

judges Larry Hall and Bernadette 

Solon wrote: 

“The new community orchard is a 

wonderful addition to the community 

as it is now, when completed it will be 

absolutely outstanding. The scope of 

this project alone makes it something 

to be proud of. This will become a 

legacy project. 

“Well done to all of the businesses 

that have contributed to the project, 

and especially coordinator, Rob 

Spencer. 

“The diversity of the 200 fruit trees 

and bushes, along with the vast 

planting of 12,000 flowers is very special, 

and as the peony is the town 

flower, it was great to see the large 

number of peonies included in the 

planting. 

“The flowers were a good idea but 

the inclusion of bee and bat habitats to 

assist with pollination will make this 

one of the town sites to be visited and 

appreciated.”

Bale stack fire 

causes huge loss 

Terri Huxley 


A bale fire located 10 miles north of 

Stanmore, Ab. had neighbouring 

farmers arriving with heavy loaders 

and tractors attempting to save as 

many bales as they could before they 

were engulfed by flames on Sun. Oct. 

21. There was approximately 1,500 

bales in the stock pile and neighbour 

Carter Link estimated that at least 75 

were salvaged. 

Youngstown Fire Department 

attended the scene first and then called 

in the Hanna Fire Department as a 

mutual aid call. 

This all began at 10:51 a.m. and the 

departments did not leave until they 

were certain it wasn’t going to start up 

again. The last department was 

reported to be back in service around 

3:30 p.m. 

“It was in Youngstown’s response 

area but they called for mutual aid 

because I’d seen it from Hanna and 

thought ‘Well if I can see it from 

Hanna, I’m going to respond’,” said 

Special Areas Fire Chief Glen Durand. 

“It’s just the nature of it, it’s so dry 

with the low humidity. It was early in 

the morning which was good. It wasn’t 

windy and there was still some pretty 

high humidity there but it was in a 

field which was all brown grass so a 

wildfire certainly could have existed.” 

The Chief suspected spontaneous 

combustion as the culprit for the fire 

although the incident still remains 

under investigation. 

“It’s an organic breakdown that creates 

a lot of heat in the bale. The bale 

starts on fire is what happens. That’s 

what it appears to be happening [in 

this case]. Those green feed bales are 

the ones that go first and that makes 

sense because it has the highest moisture,” 

explained Durand. 

While all hay will heat internally as 

it dries from the natural fermentation 

process, hay that is very high in moisture 

will get hot enough that it can 

form flammable gases inside of the 

bales that can catch on fire. 

The owner, Thane Russell, was on 

babysitting duty overnight as the pile 

continued to burn slowly. The area was 

disked to make a barrier around the 

area to further prevent any outside 

burning. 

This bale fire is only a sign of more 

bad news for farmers as feed prices 

rise due to poor weather conditions 

over the past two years as well. 

“With feed already around $120 to 

$140 a tonne, it’s a very significant loss 

so it could potentially be a couple hundred 

thousand dollar loss. It’s pretty 

hard to absorb that,” added Durand. 

Russell owns property in Cochrane 

and Special Areas. He was going to use 

the feed stored over the winter for 

stock he has in Cochrane and does not 

sell feed as it is all used for personal 

purposes such as this. 

“We almost never sell forage so for 

us it’s really just our cost of production 

that we are worried about and how we 

are going to replace it,” said Russell. 

At the time of the incident, Russell 

was on a cattle drive in another pasture 

when he received a call from a 

neighbour about smoke coming from 

the bale stack. 

“We rushed over as fast as we could 

but when we got there, there wasn’t 

much we could do,” said Russell. 

He planned on keeping all of their 

heifers for an expanded herd next year 

but ‘with this loss we might not be able 

to do that.’ 

Russell was grateful for the community 

support when it was needed most. 

“This community is so fantastic,” 

said Russell. “You know they are 

always ready to chip in and within 15 

or 20 minutes we had all kinds of 

neighbours here. 

“The fire 

departments 

responded very 

quickly. They 

were here right 

away. We really 

couldn’t ask for 

any better 

response from 

neighbours or fire 

departments.” 

He concluded, 

“That’s what is 

insistent about 

this community 

around Hanna. 

Wonderful group 

of people and they 

always strive to 

do their best to 

help each other.”

Village of Alix 

Final readings of cannabis 

bylaws on ‘Weed Day’ 

Terri Huxley 


On a historic day in Canada, Wed. 

Oct. 17, Alix Council added to the 

excitement over the legalization of 

cannabis. 

Both the cannabis consumption 

bylaw and land use bylaw were passed 

after extensive consultation with residents 

and prior conversation. 

A public survey regarding the legalized 

drug was handed out during a 

public forum held earlier this month at 

the Alix Community Hall. 

An Alberta Health Services representative 

also gave an informative 

presentation on the drug before the 

survey was distributed. 

Questions like ‘Where should the 

Village of Alix allow public consumption 

of cannabis?’ and ‘Should the 

Village of Alix completely prohibit the 

public consumption of cannabis, 

thereby limiting it to private residences 

and property only?’ were on 

the survey. 

Twelve surveys were filled and 

handed in. 

Most answers were agreed upon as 

many believed a restrictive approach 

to the bylaws was the best route to 

take according to these results, while 

others were more lenient. 

“It does give you a fair representation 

across the board as far as it was 

multiple sectors that were interested 

in filling them out so I think that we, 

despite the small numbers, have some 

information for you to consider,” said 

Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) 

Michelle White. 

Council took the information into 

account and passed second and third 

reading of both bylaws. 

This means that no one will be 

allowed to smoke cannabis anywhere 

on public property within the village 

and that potential cannabis related 

businesses must be located at least 200 

metres away from the school. 

FCSS delegation 

Glenna Carlson of the Alix Family 

and Community Support Services 

(FCSS) made a presentation to council 

about the current state of the program, 

a list of jobs they do, future programming 

and its success within the 

village. 

Mayor Rob Fehr asked about the collaboration 

between FCSS and other 

organizations. 

“Oh yes, we partner with the 

Recreation Board, the Chamber, and 

the School,” said Carlson. 

The list provided focused on continuous 

ongoing programs that can be 

done in the budget. 

Coun. Ed Cole asked if they pursue 

grants at the provincial and federal 

level. 

Carlson explained that the larger 

FCSS branches will apply and typically 

receive funding which is then 

divided amongst smaller branches.

“We are almost like a satellite to 

Lacombe in a way. They get those 

grants and so it trickles down to us,” 

said Carlson. 

Alix’s FCSS is open two days a week 

as Carlson is working those two days, 

then in school for the other two days 

with the final day left for odds and 

ends work from either. 

She will get calls ‘all the time’ as 

well and meets outside the regular 

hours. 

Council urged Carlson to track her 

hours doing this because it could lead 

to more funding as the services are 

noticeably getting more usage. 

“Oh I know I should,” said Carlson. 

“You should because there has to be 

a funding cut down the road just for 

example,” said Coun. Cole. “If you 

could show us well okay we got paid 

for 20 hours but I’m actually working 

40, I would be more apt not to cut your 

funding, you know what I mean?” 

Cole recommended a tiny log of all 

her times outside of office hours 

including the ‘Flex Friday’ which she 

happily agreed to. 

Mayor Fehr also recommended she 

keep track of the headcount of people 

who actually attended any of the 

events they host as well as the dollar 

figure for that program for budget 

purposes. 

CAO White brought up an idea to 

have a few of the organizations in town 

that put on events to come together 

and coordinate on times, dates, topics, 

et cetera in an effort to avoid overlap 

between them. FCSS would coordinate 

this meeting. 

Council accepted the presentation as 

information. 

Red Deer/Lacombe 

Rural Crime Watch 

The village had been looking for 

ways to get involved with the local Red 

Deer/Lacombe Rural Crime Watch 

group. 

Through consultation with crime 

watch board members, it was determined 

the village may be named an 

honourary member. 

Council made a resolution in support 

of the Red Deer Lacombe Rural 

Crime Watch, recognizing the current 

500 members from both counties who 

belong to the organization. 

Alix residents are encouraged to 

join the organization in an effort to 

protect the area and the people and the 

belongings in it. 

Fire Chief selection process 

confirmed 

During the last council meeting, 

council instructed administration to 

create a draft policy for the selection 

process of the fire chief. 

In order to prevent the current 

Lacombe County fire chief from recreating 

an entirely new manual that all 

seven other parties would have to 

review over a month long period, Alix 

council decided to move forward with 

UNRUH

Cell 403-323-6787 Home 403-742-4673 

a policy that is 

specific only to 

Alix and the 

county 

department. 

At the last 

council meeting, 

Alix Fire 

Department Fire 

Chief Darren 

Hiron was concerned 

with the 

level of control 

the village and 

county would 

have over the 

decision making 

of the new fire 

chief as they 

would essentially 

choose the person 

they see fit first 

by interview 

before sending a 

name for election 

within the fire 

hall. 

A compromise 

was made to 

create a draft 

policy that would 

allow someone 

from the local fire 

department to sit 

on the board 

alongside the village 

and county. 

Council 

approved the 

policy.

Stettler Council approves beautification funds 

Terri Huxley 


Each year, draft budgets 

are rolled out for council to 

approve or deny. 

The Heartland 

Beautification Committee 

maintains the duties to 

present Stettler as a wellkept 

town that prides itself 

on its appearance. 

It is divided into subcommittees 

for things as simple 

as tidiness and parks and 

trees. 

Each subcommittee 

requires a certain amount of 

monetary funds for the year. 

This year, they requested 

a budget for $22,200 from 

council on the Tues. Oct. 19 

meeting. 

This amount is consistent 

with the past three years 

including 2018. 

They have goals in 2019 to 

increase the overall awareness 

of the committee and 

upcoming projects and to 

increase engagement and 

participation of youth. 

They also wish to continue 

participation in the 

Communities in Bloom 

national competition. 

Council moved to accept 

this budget, allotment of 

$22,200 for the committee in 

the 2019 Capital Budget. 

Stettler accepts regional 

library budget 

The town was presented 

with another budget to consider, 

this being the 2019 

Parkland Regional Library 

Budget. 

The Regional Library 

requested council accept a 

requisition of $8.25 which is 

a 1.66 per cent increase from 

last year at $8.12. 

That being said, Stettler’s 

population of 5952 will make 

the budget increase by $773. 

A motion was made to 

accept the budget which was 

carried. 

Council will also send a 

letter before November 1 

outlining this approval. 

Franchise Fee 

Decrease Notice 

Please be advised that the Village of Alix is proposing to decrease the 

local access fee, which is charged to FortisAlberta Inc. (FortisAlberta) 

for use of municipal lands for its power lines effective January 1, 2019. 

The fee is recovered by FortisAlberta from its customers as the local 

municipal access fee on electric billings of all customers that receive 

electric service in the Village of Alix. This local access fee will be

tribute 

Top-notch marketer, promoter, 

breeder, and Charolais ambassador 

Don Pochylko, Stettler, Ab. in his 

own brusque and boisterous way, was 

the leader of the Charolais breed for 

the better part of the ‘70s and ‘80s. 

Don, 82, died Sept. 2, 2018. 

While other breeders 

worked to top a $4,000 sale 

average, Don’s SanDan 

Charolais (named for wife 

SANdra and first son 

DANny) productions cleared 

$8,000. He was a top-notch 

marketer, promoter, breeder, 

and Charolais ambassador. 

Occasionally, SanDan’s 

sales featured diamond ring 

giveaways to buyers of high Pochylko 

sellers. 

Knowing that a tossed magazine 

can easily land back-cover up, 

Don bought that spot in the Charolais 

Banner for a decade. 

His ad, always noticed and always 

debated, promoted his cattle into the 

Charolais forefront. But Don added to 

that. He attended Charolais events and 

sales throughout Western Canada – 

meeting people, selling the breed, and 

selling his cattle. 

Don also sold beef. In 1989 at a 

Charolais banquet at Agribition in 

Regina, he first bawled out the chef, 

then chased him back into the kitchen. 

The transgression? The chef was 

carving the hip of beef “with the 

grain” instead of against it. “Who 

wants stringy beef?” Don asked. 

He then found an apron, gave the hip 

half a turn, grabbed the knife, and 

proceeded to carve beef for the next 30 

minutes. Properly cut, the beef fell 

apart nicely on the plate – and on the 

palate. 

His feisty personality served the 

early days of the Canadian Charolais 

industry well. 

The Charolais 

history book, 

“White Gold,” 

tells of a March 

1971 Ballroom 

Sale held at The 

Winnipeg Inn. 

In order to 

enter the ballroom, 

the cattle 

had to come up 

through a freight 

elevator and walk 

through the 

kitchen. Don was 

on the halter 

leading the way, 

walking a bull 

past the stoves. 

He even commented 

to the 

bemused chef, 

“Here are your 

steaks Papa!” 

An accompanying 

photo 

showed Don, complete 

with 

Elvis-style sideburns, 

in the 

crowded kitchen 

milling around 

with the white 

cattle. 

Actually, Don 

was rarely 

without a comment. 

At 

Charolais meetings, 

his almost 

check us out online 

www.ECAreview.com 

lyrical speaking style, 

emphasizing individual 

words, his cadence speeding 

up then slowing down, could 

turn a roomful of breeders 

towards his opinion. 

His pronouncements 

had the 

betterment of the 

fledgling breed at 

heart. 

Don knew he was 

leader. When he 

would bid on cattle 

in the auction ring, 

other bidders joined 

in knowing Don 

had spotted a good 

one. Their bids 

would drive the price higher. 

Don would then disguise his 

intentions to passive action: 

“If my feet are crossed, I’m 

bidding – if they’re not, I’m 

out” he told a ringman. 

Often, the bidders focused 

on the bloodlines or the 

progeny of Poker King Jr., 

Don’s industry-leading 

Charolais bull. From about 

’80 to ’85 Charolais breeders 

couldn’t get enough of the 

highly promoted bull. 

Many suggested Don rode 

the wave of the bull’s popularity. 

The more astute knew 

that Don created the marketing 

wave. 

In his later years, now 

retired to Red Deer, Don was 

still involved with the purebred 

cattle business. He 

cooked up beef in big ovens, 

and catered events and sales. 

He suffered a stroke 

several years ago, which 

slowed him, but did not 

diminish his spirit. He was 

often on the phone giving 

opinions or gathering them. 

Don was successful by 

many standards in the beef 

business. His Stettler 

funeral attracted hundreds 

from Western Canada. He 

had no magic formula for 

his success. 

One of Don’s favourite 

sayings was “The harder I 

work, the luckier I get.” 

But more importantly, he 

helped others along the 

way. 

“I’ll say this – a lot of 

people learned a lot of 

things off Don,” said Hazel 

George, a former Alberta 

Charolais secretary and 

fellow breeder at Airdrie. 

Don’s “rising tide” lifted all 

Charolais boats, she added. 

To those he knew, Don 

accepted the nickname of 

“Pooch.” Like a lovable dog, 

he was there for his friends 

– which included a large 

section of Charolais cattlemen. 

They were always 

stronger and more courageous 

with him on their 

side. 

Don passed away while 

leaning against a fence 

looking at cattle and chatting 

about them at a friend’s 

place near Innisfail, Ab.

obituary 

Loved each and every visit from friends 

With great sadness we announce the 

passing of Winton Edwin Wangsness 

on Sun. Oct. 14, 2018 in Brooks, Ab. at 

the age 91 years. Same day as his 

father’s birthday. 

Winton was born on Nov. 21, 1926 

at home near Coronation, Ab. to parents 

Joe and Anna, the third 

oldest of five children. He met 

mom, Jean Schmidt at a function 

in Coronation and were 

married on Nov. 7, 1949. They 

were blessed with seven 

children. 

Dad grew up south of 

Coronation, went to Glengile 

and Sounding Creek schools. 

He was employed by 

Central Alberta Dairy Pool in 

Coronation hauling cream 

from farms in the area. In 1953, he 

bought his own truck and hauled 

cream for another six years. 

In the spring of 1960, he started 

working as a battery operator for 

Petcal Co. Ltd. who contracted for 

Canadian Homestead. In 1969 he was 

transferred to Duchess, Ab. where he 

operated their plant at Princess, Ab. 

In 1971 he was transferred to the 

plant at Hatton, Sk. and they moved to 

Irvine, Ab. where he worked until he 

retired in 1991, and they moved to 

Innisfail. 

They moved 

back to Brooks, 

Ab. in 2003 to be 

closer to family. 

From Signature 

Square 

Apartment, they 

moved to 

Orchard Manor. 

When his 

health failed in 

the winter of 2018, 

Brooks Long 

Term Care 

became his home,

where he was treated with compassion 

and dignity. 

Dad has always enjoyed woodworking 

and has sold his work to 

people in England and many parts of 

the U.S.A. and Canada. All of his 

family proudly display his work. 

He also enjoyed hunting, 

fishing, drawing, feeding the 

birds, music, shuffleboard, 

tending to his flower beds 

and pots, going for drives, 

camping in the mini-home 

and Christmas was his very 

favourite holiday. 

Most of all, he loved 

spending time with his 

family and loved each and 

every visit from his friends 

as well. 

Dad will always be remembered and 

loved by his five daughters, Trudy 

(Gary) Koleyak of Duchess, Emily 

Elliott of Rocky Mountain House, 

Lorrie (Greg) Franz of Medicine Hat, 

Renie (Brian) McAmmond of Medicine
